Service-oriented models for audiovisual content storage
What are the important topics to understand if involved with storage services to hold digital audiovisual content? This report takes a look at how content is created and moves into and out of storage; the storage service value networks and architectures found now and expected in the future; what sort of data transfer is expected to and from an audiovisual archive; what transfer protocols to use; and a summary of security and interface issues
Political Culture and the Second Industrial Revolution: Flint Politics 1900-1929
Hidden in Flint’s explosion of automotive industrialism, is the dynamics of a community coming to grips with the twentieth century. Even though Flint may have been an extraordinary boom town, the community did not exist in a vacuum, but rather was also part of the mainstream of American culture. In this context a detailed analysis of local events can have broader implications as Flint experiences first, and to greater extremes, the effects of the second industrial revolution. This thesis will attempt to look at the politics and political culture of the City of Flint in order to place the second industrial revolution in context with the community. Political culture is an appropriate instrument for this kind of study due to its flexibility and tremendous scope.Master of Arts (MA)Liberal StudiesUniversity of Michigan-Flinthttps://deepblue.lib.umich.edu/bitstream/2027.42/143362/1/Laux.pd
Predicting coastal depositional style: influence of basin morphology and accommodation to sediment supply ratio within a sequence stratigraphic framework
R. Bruce Ainsworth, Stephen S. Flint, and John A. Howel
World War I record of service survey for Stephen J. Markham, signed 5 March 1926.
Questionnaire about Stephen James Markham's service in World War I, 1917-1919, signed by Markham on 5 March 1926.Questionnaire originally part of a survey of Norwich University alumni conducted by a “Norwich in the World War” committee consisting of Charles N. Barber (chairman), Carl V. Woodbury, K.R.B. Flint, and Gustaf A. Nelson. Data from these questionnaires may have been used in a chapter of "Vermont in the world war, 1917-1919" by Harold P. Sheldon (1928)
Effects of the Upper Floridan Aquifer on Water Chemistry and Oxygen Metabolism in the Lower Flint River During Drought
Proceedings of the 2003 Georgia Water Resources Conference, held April 23-24, 2003, at the University of Georgia.The lower Flint River in southwestern Georgia flows through the limestone formation of the Upper Floridan aquifer, and large exchanges of water occur through natural spring conduits between the river and the aquifer. Our studies center on how exchanges of river and aquifer water affect these aquatic ecosystems, particularly during periods of drought when both the aquifer and river are heavily stressed due to the combined effects of climatic conditions and human use. Large increases in nitrate and calcium concentrations in the lower Flint River between Albany and Bainbridge are attributed to an increase in the proportion of aquifer water that comes in from springs. Conversely, decreases in phosphate and ammonium result from dilution by groundwater. Measurements of microbial metabolism based on oxygen consumption indicate very low rates of bacterial activity and a strong dependency on bioavailable dissolved organic carbon during drought conditions. Groundwater inputs from the Upper Floridan aquifer play a critical role in maintaining the health of the river and should be sustained to ensure the ecological integrity of the lower Flint River ecosystem

AC-6-U.S. Naval Planes Flying in Formation, Langley Field, VA/Thank-You Card from Stephen Tury to the Hungarian Defense Council.
This postcard, which depicts U.S. Naval planes flying in formation, was sent to the Hungarian Defense Council by Private Stephen Tury. The Council was organized in New Brunswick by leaders of local Hungarian churches and societies. During the Second World War it sent supplies, such as the carton of cigarettes Tury is thanking it for, to members of the military of Hungarian descent from the New Brunswick area
