Anthony Brown and Katie O’Malley for MD Attorney General IHP Candidate Interview
No full textThe Maryland Attorney General’s race in 2022 features two heavyweights on the Democratic side. Sunil Dasgupta talks with Congressman Anthony Brown, who served as lieutenant governor before and ran to be governor; and with Judge Katie Curran O’Malley, former first lady of the state and longtime circuit court judge in Baltimore. They talk about public safety, civil rights, and rethinking the office. Music for this episode comes from DC-based singer-songwriter Emily Hall.https://open.spotify.com/episode/2XeOK0LZTkjElZEVX4drz
Widening the gap – Indigenous affairs
No full textThe author points out the implications for aboriginal Australians of the decision to cut funding for Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Services. Curran gives individual examples to show how early intervention to give aboriginals effective access to services and avoid jail helps to close the gap between aboriginal and non-aboriginal people and saves taxpayers’ money
Letter from M.J. Curran to Hagan
No full textHolograph letter from M.[J.Curran], Rome, to Hagan. Sr. Rita progresses well; she does suffer from typhoid after all. Explaining the matter concerning the Enright Burse; a draft has been received. In Tivoli, a new municipal tax is imposed on all building materials; asking for advice. Latest progress on the Via Santi Quattro site. The Civiltà Cattolica has apparently excelled itself in an attack on the author of the Isola Smeralda; promising to send the issue

Shelters need 500,00 increase in funding instead of a hoped-for 100,000 was found, increasing the state funding by $6 per person per night.

Numerical prediction of vortex dynamics in inviscid sheet cavitation
No full textRecent studies have indicated that mass transfer models are able to correctly reflect the sheet cavitation dynamics of inertia driven flows, given that the mass transfer model constants governing the source term magnitude are sufficiently large (Koukouvinis and Gavaises 2015) and that enough temporal resolution is provided (Schenke and Van Terwisga 2017). The inertia driven dynamics, characterised by cavity collapse time, shedding frequencies and local pressure impact frequencies, were shown to be insensitive to variations of the mass transfer coefficients in this limit.This study focuses on an inviscid cavitating flow around a NACA0015 hydrofoil. The flow dynamics are driven by the re-entrant jet as the main mechanism of cavity shedding. A threshold of mass transfer magnitude, temporal and spanwise spatial resolution is identified, beyond which the frequency of local pressure impacts is model parameter independent. Although the excact values of peak pressure loads remain time step size, grid size and model parameter dependent, the sheet cavitation dynamics are considered as well resolved in this regime as far as shedding frequency and characteristic cavity collapse time are concerned. The results are compared to experimental results by Van Rijsbergen et al. (2012).Based on this, the study further focuses on the mechanism of vorticity generation and vorticity break-up, causing potentially erosive cavitating structures such as horseshoe cavities (Dular and Petkovˇsek 2015).Accepted Author ManuscriptShip Hydromechanics and Structure
“I will Tell my Story, and my Reader shall Judge for Me”: Mary Shelley’s Stories for The Keepsake
No full textBetween 1823 and 1839 Mary Shelley was a prolific writer and a steady contributor
to the annuals. After she moved back from Italy to London, she published
four novels and twenty-one stories as well as some poetical pieces. Her
literary contributions for the annuals were accompanied by illustrations of the
sort that characterized the periodical market of annuals and gift books of the
time. In many of these stories Mary Shelley employs gothic elements such
as the supernatural, the dangerous, and the mysterious, linking her later production
with her successful publication, Frankenstein. Thus, Shelley’s stories
written for the annuals can be read as an extension and development of the
gothic elements employed by the author in her first novel. Specifically, the
author is building on both the enduring public taste for those gothic elements
employed by Ann Radcliffe as well as experimenting with the new genre of the
short story. Mary Shelley’s editorial relationship with The Keepsake—a very
successful periodical for women that represented the refinements and elegance
pervading the English consumerist society of the 1830s—became a fruitful
endeavor not only for financial income, but also as a site of literary experimentation
in terms of genre and content
Addiction recovery stories: Neil Curran in conversation with Lisa Ogilvie
No full textPurpose This paper aims to explore the transition from addiction to recovery. It is the second in a series of recovery stories that examine candid accounts of addiction and recovery. Shared components of recovery are considered, along with the change and growth needed to support the transition. Design/methodology/approach The CHIME framework comprises five elements important to recovery (Connectedness, Hope, Identity, Meaning and Empowerment). It provides a standard to qualitatively study mental health recovery, having also been applied to addiction recovery. In this paper, an element for Growth is included in the model (G-CHIME), to consider both recovery, and sustained recovery. A first-hand account of addiction recovery is presented, followed by a semi-structured e-interview with the author of the account. This is structured on the G-CHIME model. Findings This paper shows that addiction recovery is a remarkable process that can be effectually explained using the G-CHIME model. The significance of each element in the model is apparent from the biography and e-interview presented. Originality/value Each account of recovery in this series is unique, and as yet, untold
