Compressible Rayleigh-Taylor turbulent mixing under different acceleration histories
No full textCompressible Rayleigh-Taylor turbulent mixing (CRTM) induced by Rayleigh-Taylor instability occurs when a compressible fluid of heavy density is accelerated or supported against gravity by a compressible fluid of light density, and is of fundamental importance in applications from combustion, to inertial confinement fusion, and to astrophysics. Traditionally, CRTFs are studied under constant acceleration histories. Due to the nature of the processes, however, it is necessary to study CRTF under general acceleration histories g(t). In this aspect, the evolution of Rayleigh-Taylor turbulent mixing under complex acceleration histories, including changes in signs, have been studied numerically[1] and experimentally[2] for incompressible flows, leaving an open question on that of compressible flows. In fact, most engineering problems are compressible. In addition, the available engineering turbulence models cannot capture the variation of mixing width for CRTM with complex acceleration histories, such as the gravity reversal. In order to better understanding the dynamic of CRTM under different variation histories, several DNS cases with different acceleration histories have been conducted and analyzed

Open access survey June 2014
No full textIn the first few months of 2014 Taylor & Francis carried out a worldwide survey, with the aim of exploring journal authors’ views on open access.
Having previously conducted a survey on open access in 2013, we have been able to see how authors’ opinions have developed, and whether the discussion and debate on open access has helped to inform and shape views.
With responses to both the 2013 and 2014 survey given side-by-side, you can easily see how attitudes have changed. Alongside this, the 2014 survey explores many new areas and gives a fascinating insight into authors’ current perceptions of open access.
The survey asked authors a series of questions on their perceptions of open access; their attitudes, values and understanding of it; and what they believe the future of research to be. The report offers some intriguing shifts in opinions, with responses from the 2014 survey placed next to those from 2013 to show how views have changed, and to what degree.
Positivity towards open access continues to grow, with significant increases in the proportions strongly agreeing that open access offered a wider circulation than publication in a subscription journal (from 38% to 49%), and that it offered higher visibility (27% to 35%). 70% of respondents also disagreed or strongly disagreed with the statement ‘There are no fundamental benefits to open access publication’, an increase of 10% year-on-year and a strong indicator that open access continues to be viewed as a force for good. Authors also gave their views on the value of types of peer review when publishing open access, on repositories, their future intention on open access publishing, and on licensing.  
Oral history of Kevin E. Taylor
No full textKevin E. Taylor is working on his greatness while he inspires you to walk in yours! He's a noted author (JADED, UNCLUTTER, BECAUSE HE LIVES, IT'S TIME FOR SOME ACTION, ENVY: the darkest shade of green, GET OFF YOUR ASS AND DO SOMETHING and MEET THE HENDERSONS). He's a pastor (Senior Pastor of Unity Fellowship Church NewArk now and Unity Fellowship Church New Brunswick for 12 years). He's a writer and producer for television (22 years in television and more than 20 years running TaylorMadeMultiMedia (TM3), his own video production company. He is a lecturer/empowerment speaker, who has spoken at colleges, universities and community groups for the last 20 years, and he has also been conducting a series of workshops on everything from pitching a TV show idea to uncluttering your life. "It seems like I'm a multi-tasker who's got too much on his hands, but I'm successful at it because I don't try to do it all at one time. I know how to focus on each task at hand. It's about balance."
Brought up in and raised well by his mother in the projects of Washington, DC, but directly across the street from condos housing powerful lawmakers and business owners, the juxtaposition made him a dreamer. From an early age, Kevin E. Taylor knew that better was available for him. "I remember finding a pocket dictionary in the trash. I would learn a new word everyday. People thought it was crazy, but I knew I would need those words. I knew that there was a power in those words. Those words came in handy when Taylor applied for college and his English essay is what got in him into several schools."
Those words helped the English student, who also studied primarily in Accounting and Spanish. Those words helped when he transitioned from a safe municipal position as a Budget Analyst to Black Entertainment Television (BET) and soon became a producer, where he interviewed such icons as Tina Turner, Maxwell, Stevie Wonder, Luther Vandross, Sade, Diana Ross, Lenny Kravitz, Patti Labelle and later her reunited group Labelle and his personal favorite Natalie Cole, with whom Taylor developed a personal relationship and later did research for and wrote the discography to her 2000 "Angel On My Shoulder" autobiography, which later became an award-winning NBC made-for-TV movie. During his tenure at BET, Kevin created such shows as ACCESS GRANTED, TESTIMONY, LYRICALLY SPEAKING and NOTARIZED, which gave the network its highest day-ratings in its history in 1999 and where he won a Gold World Medal for International Programming for a special (24 HOURS WITH DRU HILL) and a pair of NAACP Image Award nominations, competing against himself in 2001 for his Aaliyah episode of ACCESS GRANTED and his interviews with Mariah Carey and Mary J. Blige for TESTIMONY. Taylor also wrote biographies for projects or featured articles on Anita Baker ("Rhythm of Love" and "My Everything" cd releases), Shai, Jon B., Jennifer Holliday (cover story for REAL magazine), Rachelle Ferrell (The Black Guide) and Tina Turner for the 1996 cover feature of Sister2Sister magazine. Taylor has also done EPKs (electronic/video press kits) for various record labels and recording artists.
Now, Taylor is hosting his own show/webseries (with the help of Kickstarter and a strong following) called NOW WHAT?! WITH KEVIN E TAYLOR. The crowdfunded online series has featured the likes of singers Rachelle Ferrell, B.Slade, Kenny Bobien, Jessica Betts and Kelly Price, actor and playwright Keith Hamilton Cobb, RHOA stars Cynthia Bailey and Peter Thomas, renowned choreographer Desmond Richardson, model/actor/fitness expert Garrain (Steph) Jones, author Victoria Schmidt, wellness icon Queen Afua and many more. The new season of the show will take Taylor on a cross-country tour and will be a series of speaking engagements with featured live interviews and community engagement. Taylor recently released his own autobiography, titled NEVER TOO MUCH: this is my story of big words, big dreams and an audacious big life

Most of the shrines to miraculous images and tittles of Mary and Christ that date from the early colonial period became even more popular and institutionalized in the eighteenth century, but few new devotions emerged and spread for long under the watchful eye of Bourbon administrators and royalist prelates. Several devotions that were suppressed left behind a record of surveillance that sometimes casts a glimmer of light on the origin and on self-starting lay devotion, but they ended too soon to reveal much about how such devotions might have developed. A successful new devotion that has left a different documentary record at the beginning is the veneration of the Divina Pastora (the Virgin as Good Shepherdess) in the port of Veracruz.</p
