Non-orientable surface-plus-one-relation groups
No full textRecently Dicks–Linnell determined the L2-Betti numbers of the orientable surface-plus-one-relation groups, and their arguments involved some results that were obtained topologically by Hempel and Howie. Using algebraic arguments, we now extend all these results of Hempel and Howie to a larger class of two-relator groups, and we then apply the extended results to determine the L2-Betti numbers of the non-orientable surface-plus-one-relation group

Washington works: Hatch Act, community forum discussion, approximately 1990 (clip))
No full textShows protesters with gags on their mouths to illustrate laws that restrict what federal employees can do or say about politics. Employees felt they were being told when to speak and when to vote- not being able to have an opinion on their government restricts freedom of speech. There was a call to amend the Hatch Act so employees could participate within their government and political activities off the work site. Norm Dicks, Don Bonker, John Miller, and Mike Lowry, all congressmen, speak about the need for reform how the act was more applicable in 1939 when coercion by politicians were more prevalent. Federal employees must adhere to confusing rules about lawn signs and campaign buttons on clothes that confuse and intimidate employees. Karen Marchioro from the Democratic Party State Chair speaks about how caucuses are losing participants because of the confusing nature of the act. Sandra Fiske, staff director from FGSTF notes some of the rules and their sometimes seen as ridiculous stipulations. Employees relate their stories about dealing with Hatch Act. Ed Lawson, Ed Tuller, Steve Biel, Jim Sommerhauser, Mike Buckley, Jim Harel are among employees present. Ralph Munro, secretary of state took the Hatch Act to Court. Flags and gags day was proposed and the union is still waiting for a reform on the act.Title supplied by cataloger.

We recruited and tested 12 male expert tennis players in hard courts. A comprehensive analysis of the timing (eleven temporal variables analysed at 300 Hz) and performance success of the return actions were carried out, while simultaneously considering task constraints such as the accuracy and the speed of the serves. Temporal organisation of return actions were scaled relative to the server’s racket-ball contact (5 ms), an adaptation of fly-time of the split-step, which resulted in consistent landings (133 ms), and initiation of lateral movements towards the ball–with no response errors–after the server’s stroke (around 177 ms). Poorer returns occurred when responding to accurate serves accompanied by late trunk movements towards the ball. Returners scaled the timing of the response to the unfolding action of the serve in order to support both spatial and temporal accuracy. These novel findings highlight the significance of the study of fast-ball sports in representative settings and offer further detail on the spatiotemporal control of skilful perception-action.ITF Development DepartmentMadrid Tennis Federation and Catalan Tennis Federation (Spain)Spanish Tennis FederationInnovation and Technology Fund Hong Kong SAR (China)Depto. de Didáctica de las Lenguas, Artes y Educación FísicaFac. de EducaciónTRUEpu
Female Dicks. Il gender e il genere nella serialità letteraria bolognese
No full textIn honor of Luigi Bernardi ten years after his death, this essay explores one of the most important of the author-editor’s areas of research, crime fiction. Where the rich and recent scholarship on the subject has favored a more transmedial approach, I here focus on the literary text, specifically three series of novels set in and around Bologna with female detectives: the series by Carlo Lucarelli with protagonist police inspector Grazia Negro, the series by Grazia Verasani featuring the private detective Giorgia Cantini, and two recent novels in a projected trilogy by Lorella Marini whose protagonist is Commissaria Barbara Larsen Givoni. From these serial novels I distill a triptych of ‘female dicks’: the Deferential, the Disquieting, and the Avenger, each of whom responds differently to the exigencies of the patriarchal system in which they operate, each of whose series illustrate greater and lesser degrees of adherence to generic conventions of the noir, representing the intersection of gender e genre.In omaggio a Luigi Bernardi a dieci anni dalla sua scomparsa, il presente saggio esplora uno dei campi più importanti nell’opera dell’autore-editore, la narrativa noir. Laddove le ricche recenti ricerche hanno adoperato un approccio transmediale, io invece mi concentro sul testo letterario, in particolare su tre serie di romanzi ubicati a Bologna e che hanno per protagonista una donna detective: la serie di Carlo Lucarelli con protagonista l’ispettrice Grazia Negro, la serie di romanzi di Grazia Verasani con protagonista l’investigatrice privata Giorgia Cantini, e due romanzi nella trilogia, in via di completamento, di Lorella Marini la cui protagonista è la commissaria Barbara Larsen Givoni. Dai romanzi seriali distillo un trittico di ‘female dicks’: la Deferente, la Scomoda, e la Vendicatrice, le cui narrative aderiscono in modi diversi alle convenzioni del noir, rappresentando l’intersezione di gender e genere
