Episode 11: Reconsidering the Reconstruction Era
No full textThe Department of History’s Holly Baker recently talked with Dr. K. Stephen Prince, Associate Professor of History at the University of South Florida and author of the book Stories of the South: Race and the Reconstruction of Southern Identity, 1865-1915. Dr. Prince was one of the presenters at the Sixth Annual Jerrell H. Shofner Lecture Series on Florida Culture and History. The topic was “Reconsidering Reconstruction: Regional, National, and Global Perspectives”.https://stars.library.ucf.edu/knightshistorycast/1010/thumbnail.jp

Hidden Hearing Loss? No Effect of Common Recreational Noise Exposure on Cochlear Nerve Response Amplitude in Humans
No full textThis study tested hypothesized relationships between noise exposure and auditory deficits. Both retrospective assessment of potential associations between noise exposure history and performance on an audiologic test battery and prospective assessment of potential changes in performance after new recreational noise exposure were completed.Methods: 32 participants (13M, 19F) with normal hearing (25-dB HL or better, 0.25–8 kHz) were asked to participate in 3 pre- and post-exposure sessions including: otoscopy, tympanometry, distortion product otoacoustic emissions (DPOAEs) (f2 frequencies 1–8 kHz), pure-tone audiometry (0.25–8 kHz), Words-in-Noise (WIN) test, and electrocochleography (eCochG) measurements at 70, 80, and 90-dB nHL (click and 2–4 kHz tone-bursts). The first session was used to collect baseline data, the second session was collected the day after a loud recreational event, and the third session was collected 1-week later. Of the 32 participants, 26 completed all 3 sessions.Results: The retrospective analysis did not reveal statistically significant relationships between noise exposure history and any auditory deficits. The day after new exposure, there was a statistically significant correlation between noise “dose” and WIN performance overall, and within the 4-dB signal-to-babble ratio. In contrast, there were no statistically significant correlations between noise dose and changes in threshold, DPOAE amplitude, or AP amplitude the day after new noise exposure. Additional analyses revealed a statistically significant relationship between TTS and DPOAE amplitude at 6 kHz, with temporarily decreased DPOAE amplitude observed with increasing TTS.Conclusions: There was no evidence of auditory deficits as a function of previous noise exposure history, and no permanent changes in audiometric, electrophysiologic, or functional measures after new recreational noise exposure. There were very few participants with TTS the day after exposure - a test time selected to be consistent with previous animal studies. The largest observed TTS was approximately 20-dB. The observed pattern of small TTS suggests little risk of synaptopathy from common recreational noise exposure, and that we should not expect to observe changes in evoked potentials for this reason. No such changes were observed in this study. These data do not support suggestions that common, recreational noise exposure is likely to result in “hidden hearing loss”

Springdale, Leavenworth County
No full textBaker, Zach, “Springdale, Leavenworth County,” Chapman Center Research Collections, https://ccrsresearchcollections.omeka.net/items/show/3.The author describes the life of an early Irish Catholic settlement in eastern Kansas. Originally a Quaker community, Irish immigration "exploded" there just after the Civil War, eventually stamping the town with a particular religious culture. After railroads made the Fort Riley mail road obsolete, Springdale declined. St. Thomas Catholic Church was a vital center for decades

Secure Communication Based on Rubik's Cube Algorithm and Chaotic Baker Map
No full textAbstractIn the field of digital and multimedia applications, more multimedia data are developed and transmitted in art, entertainment, advertising, commercial areas, education and training through the networks, which may have important information that should not be accessed by the unauthorized persons. Therefore issue of protecting the confidentiality, integrity, security, privacy as well as the authenticity of images has become an important issue for communication and storage of images. In this paper an efficient method for image encryption based on Rubik's cube principle with chaotic Baker map is presented. It consists of two layers. The first layer is a preprocessing layer used to improve the security of the system which is implemented with the chaotic baker map. In the second layer, the Rubik's cube principle is utilized. The original image is first converted in to baker mapped image and then Rubik's cube principle is applied. The proposed technique will enhance the security level of the Rubik's cube encryption technique
