The basics of information security: understanding the fundamentals of InfoSec in theory and practice
No full textAs part of the Syngress Basics series, The Basics of Information Security provides you with fundamental knowledge of information security in both theoretical and practical aspects. Author Jason Andress gives you the basic knowledge needed to understand the key concepts of confidentiality, integrity, and availability, and then dives into practical applications of these ideas in the areas of operational, physical, network, application, and operating system security. The Basics of Information Security gives you clear-non-technical explanations of how infosec works and how to apply these princ

THE MICROSTRUCTURE OF GAMMA-FE2O3 AND ITS EFFECTS ON THE MAGNETIZATION PROPERTIES
No full textSome doubts on the microstructural nature of Υ-Fe2O3were recently raised. New experimental data on the magnetics, wide and low-angle X-ray scattering, and print-through for Υ-Fe2O3are reported. It is proved that Υ-Fe2O3is composed of a mosaic of “islands” whose size is much smaller than the size detectable on transmission electron microscopy (TEM) micrographs. This defective structure of the particles must, therefore, be taken into account in order to explain anomalies in print-through data for Υ-Fe2O3tapes and their overall magnetization properties. The model for Υ-Fe2O3particles which arises from this work induces a reconsideration of the magnetization reversal models for single-domain Υ-Fe2O3particles. © 1986 IEE
Barbara Andress: Her career and contributions to early childhood music education.
No full textBarbara Andress is an internationally known music educator, author, artist, designer of early childhood materials and instruments, clinician, and organizational leader who has dedicated nearly 50 years of her life to music education. Since the late 1960s, Barbara Andress's attention has been on early childhood music education. Her contributions during the second half of the 20th century focused national attention on the importance of music in early childhood.The purpose of this study was to examine and chronicle the career and professional contributions of Barbara Andress to early childhood music education in the United States. The study documented a biographical summary of her professional life, clarified her responses to selected issues and challenges in the early childhood music education movement, and chronicled her professional contributions as a major figure in the early childhood music education movement.This study is divided into seven chapters, a bibliography, and nine appendices. Chapter one is the introduction, which includes the purpose, need for the study, organization, procedures, and the limitations of the study. Chapter two is a discussion of the related literature. Chapter three reviews her work as a music educator. Also in chapter three are summaries of her early musical influences and education, her philosophy of music education, and her views on success as a music educator of young children. Chapters four and five detail her music activities and contributions in Arizona and at the national level, respectively. Chapter six summarizes Barbara Andress's views on selected issues and challenges in early childhood music education and presents comments and responses from her colleagues. Chapter seven includes the conclusions and recommendations for further study.Following the bibliography, appendices provide a list of her publications and writings, a chronology of her life and professional activities, topics for scholarly presentations, all known scholarly presentations, the interview questions for Andress, the cover letter and questionnaire for the colleagues of Andress, Barbara Andress's Nine Point Credo for early childhood music education, MENC's Position Statement on early childhood music education, and selected photos from Barbara Andress's career

Experiencing the French Revolution
No full textRecent debates around the French Revolution have questioned the need for an overall paradigm of interpretation, as the certainties underpinning both ‘classic’ and ‘revisionist’ views have faded. In Experiencing the French Revolution authors argue against a single ‘paradigm quest’, in favour of a plurality of approaches to underscore the diverse ways in which the turbulent changes of late eighteenth-century France can be explored. From broad cultural trends to very personal trajectories, a team of experts offers fresh perspectives on the individual and collective experience of Revolution, both within and outside France. Using a range of methodologies, including biographical studies of key individuals and groups, archival studies of structures and institutions, and new sources available from digital humanities archives, contributors provide: • new insights into the clandestine book trade of pre-revolutionary France, and the surprising effectiveness of Louis XVI’s state control • a reappraisal of Robespierre, whose opinions were shaped and transformed by years of upheaval • an exploration of how revolutionary situations inspired both dissent and discipline within the new citizen armies • an analysis of the revolutionary shockwaves felt beyond France, and how its currents were exploited for national political ends in Belgium, England and Wales.

Insulin-like growth factor-binding protein-5 (IGFBP-5) stimulates phosphorylation of the IGFBP-5 receptor
No full textThe finding that insulin-like growth factor (IGF)-binding protein-5 (IGFBP-5) binding to mouse osteoblasts was capable of being downregulated by IGFBP-5 suggested that the 420-kDa membrane protein, which interacted with IGFBP-5, may be a signaling receptor (Andress, D. L. J. Biol. Chem. 270: 28289–28296, 1995). In the current study, a carboxy-terminal IGFBP-5 peptide, IGFBP-5-(201—218), which was found to competitively inhibit125I-IGFBP-5 binding and to specifically bind to osteoblast monolayers, was used to affinity-purify the 420-kDa membrane protein. Coincubation of the affinity-purified membrane protein with [32P]ATP resulted in autophosphorylation at serine residues. Serine phosphorylation of the 420-kDa protein was enhanced by intact IGFBP-5, IGFBP-5-(1—169), and IGFBP-5-(201—218). When the IGFBP-5 receptor was incubated with dephosphorylated casein in the presence of [32P]ATP, casein became phosphorylated on serine residues. These data indicate that IGFBP-5 stimulates the phosphorylation of the IGFBP-5 receptor and suggest that serine/threonine kinase activation may be important in mediating some of the IGF-independent effects of IGFBP-5.</jats:p
