Oral History Interview with Elmer Freeman, September 30, 2000
No full textTranscript of an oral interview with Elmer Freeman. Mr Freeman graduated from high school in 1938 and joined the Navy in 1939. He had three other brothers in the service during the war. After training at Great Lakes Naval Training Center, he was assigned to Aviation Machinist Mate School in San Diego. Upon completion of that, he was sent to VP-12, a PBY squadron in San Diego for a short while then sent to Patrol Wing 4 in Seattle. He was assigned to VP-41 first and then VP-42, both PBY squadrons; he was there when the war started. On December 8, 1941, they were ordered to Tongue Point, Oregon (in the mouth of the Columbia River) and began flying anti-submarine patrols from there, flying PBY-5s. In Feb 1942, his squadron was ordered to Alaska (Sitka, Kodiak and Dutch Harbor). He was a plane captain/crew chief, flight engineer and gunner. They flew pie-shaped sector searches for around ten hours. The squadron came back to Whidbey Island in Feb 1943 for about a month and then went back to Alaska but changed over to the PVs then (PV-1 Ventura). They operated from a variety of islands in the Aleutian chain. He was shipped back to the States in October 1943, after the U.S. had taken back Attu and Kiska. He then went to Panama with VP-1 which was flying PB2Ys. They patrolled the Caribbean and had a detachment in the Galapagos Islands. After this tour, Mr Freeman was sent to Memphis, Tennessee for SC (single place float plane) School. At the beginning of 1945, he went to Scout Observation Service Unit 2 in Norfolk, Virginia ; he was there on VE-Day. Next he got orders to go to Floyd Bennett Field in New York and assigned to the cruiser USS Fargo which had not been commissioned. Freeman spent about a year and one half in the Atlantic Fleet and was there when the war ended. After the war was over, he went to the Philippines (Cavite) and was in VP-28 (flying PBMs) for about one and one-half years. Mr Freeman retired from the Navy in 1959. Mr Freeman authored a book titled 'Those Navy Guys in the PBY's'

Depolarization and decreased surface expression of K+ channels contribute to NSAID-inhibition of intestinal restitution
No full textNon-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) contribute to gastrointestinal ulcer formation by inhibiting epithelial cell migration and mucosal restitution; however, the drug-affected signaling pathways are poorly defined. We investigated whether NSAID inhibition of intestinal epithelial migration is associated with depletion of intracellular polyamines, depolarization of membrane potential (Em) and altered surface expression of K+ channels. Epithelial cell migration in response to the wounding of confluent IEC-6 and IEC-Cdx2 monolayers was reduced by indomethacin (100μM), phenylbutazone (100μM) and NS-398 (100μM) but not by SC-560 (1μM). NSAID-inhibition of intestinal cell migration was not associated with depletion of intracellular polyamines. Treatment of IEC-6 and IEC-Cdx2 cells with indomethacin, phenylbutazone and NS-398 induced significant depolarization of Em, whereas treatment with SC-560 had no effect on Em. The Em of IEC-Cdx2 cells was: −38.5±1.8mV under control conditions; −35.9±1.6mV after treatment with SC-560; −18.8±1.2mV after treatment with indomethacin; and −23.7±1.4mV after treatment with NS-398. Whereas SC-560 had no significant effects on the total cellular expression of Kv1.4 channel protein, indomethacin and NS-398 decreased not only the total cellular expression of Kv1.4, but also the cell surface expression of both Kv1.4 and Kv1.6 channel subunits in IEC-Cdx2. Both Kv1.4 and Kv1.6 channel proteins were immunoprecipitated by Kv1.4 antibody from IEC-Cdx2 lysates, indicating that these subunits co-assemble to form heteromeric Kv channels. These results suggest that NSAID inhibition of epithelial cell migration is independent of polyamine-depletion, and is associated with depolarization of Em and decreased surface expression of heteromeric Kv1 channels.ID: S0006295207001931; M3: Article; Accession Number: S0006295207001931; Author: L.C.

Thomas Freeman Hudson Papers - Accession 790
No full textThe Thomas Freeman Hudson Papers primarily consists of Father Hudson’s work in the Episcopal Church in the Episcopal Diocese of Upper South Carolina (EDUSC) as a parish priest in several parishes, principally the Episcopal Church of the Good Shepherd (York, SC); as diocesan Ecumenical Officer; and as a member of the diocesan Liturgical Commission. Materials contained in the collection include correspondence; papers; service bulletins; subject files; articles and a variety of publications. In addition to his ministry as Ecumenical Officer, Hudson was particularly interested in the two controversial issues facing The Episcopal Church (TEC) during the period, namely, the revision of the Book of Common Prayer (BCP) and the ordination of women to the Episcopal priesthood. The researcher will find an appendix of published works in alphabetical order.https://digitalcommons.winthrop.edu/manuscriptcollection_findingaids/2806/thumbnail.jp

Arranjo produtivo eletrometal-mecânico da microrregião de Joinville/SC: um estudo da dinâmica institucional
No full textDissertação (mestrado) - Universidade Federal de Santa Catarina, Centro Sócio-Econômico. Programa de Pós-Graduação em EconomiaCom base na abordagem sobre arranjos produtivos e inovativos locais desenvolvida pela RedeSist, este trabalho analisa a influência da dinâmica institucional na consolidação de espaços para as relações sociais e produtivas localizadas e seu impacto sobre o desenvolvimento das capacitações inovativas endógenas. Esta análise é realizada a partir das principais características do aglomerado de empresas da eletrometal-mecânica na microrregião de Joinville/Santa Catarina. A coleta de dados apóia-se na aplicação de questionários a partir de entrevistas realizadas em visita as empresas. Após a delimitação da amostra de pesquisa, num total de 83 empresas (37 micro, 34 pequenas, 08 médias e 04 grandes) realiza-se a estratificação por tamanho de empresa e divisão de atividade econômica. Além das empresas, a pesquisa abrange também as instituições/organizações locais com entrevistas realizadas em 03 associações empresariais, 02 centros de treinamento, 04 Universidades e 01 incubadora de base tecnológica. Este trabalho, sob o ponto de vista metodológico, identifica grupos de questões organizando alguns elementos analíticos para a observação empírica e propõe um modelo de análise com as seguintes dimensões: (a) os condicionantes setoriais; (b) as especificidades do território e as possibilidades de interações determinadas pela estrutura produtiva local; (c) a função de coordenação das instituições locais; (d) a estrutura de conhecimento e processos de aprendizagem nas empresas. A partir da identificação destas estruturas e das formas de relações que ali se estabelecem entre os agentes pode-se identificar seus impactos sobre o estoque de capital social local, através da observação de ações que estimulam atividades de natureza coletiva. A microrregião de Joinville caracteriza-se por apresentar uma estrutura industrial bastante diversificada, com uma forte dimensão local, associada tanto as especificidades da sua formação sócio-espacial quanto à existência de uma vocação histórica ao empreendedorismo. O aglomerado de empresas com especialização "secular" na eletrometal-mecânica, sobretudo de MPEs, e a presença de uma gama bastante variada de segmentos produtivos refletem a densidade da estrutura produtiva local. Em tal estrutura a heterogeneidade tanto no número quanto no porte das empresas estabelecem níveis distintos de especialização e de complementaridades ao longo da cadeia produtiva. A intensa divisão do trabalho no local cria espaços para as relações interindustriais no interior do arranjo, principalmente, para aquelas que ocorrem no âmbito do mercado ou em redes de subcontratação. Essa dinâmica interativa na dimensão produtiva do arranjo ocorre num ambiente que além dos vínculos de proximidade e das especificidades da origem histórica-cultural dos agentes também é afetado por uma estrutura institucional específica ao local. Apesar de tal estrutura ter se desenvolvido simultaneamente ao arranjo produtivo local, não é exclusiva das indústrias eletrometal-mecânicas parece representar muito mais o interesse dos vários setores industriais da região, sobretudo, no que se refere à função de coordenação exercida pelas associações empresarias. A carência de ações voltadas à consolidação de redes técnico-produtivas revela que a dinâmica institucional local, é relativamente fraca nas suas interações com a base produtiva não estimulando as interação extra-mercado que poderiam resultar em ações cooperativas locais. As análises realizadas neste trabalho indicam, portanto, que as interações locais são muito mais decorrentes das características da estrutura produtiva do que de ações deliberadas das organizações que conformam a estrutura institucional local. A carência de formas de coordenação extra-mercado revela ainda a fraca atuação das organizações em consolidar o estoque de capital social local e em criar espaços (estruturas) para o desenvolvimento de capacitações inovativas endógenas que poderiam fortalecer as competências locais
