    No full text
    Excerpt of article titled "Planning Board Proposed" by Yoshimi Shibata, Councilman Block 47, published in the Tulean Dispatch on September 22, 1942. The article proposes the formation of a planning board to advise the War Relocation Authority on administration of the Tule Lake camp.Personal correspondence, organizational records, government documents, publications, and other papers created or collected by Joseph R. Goodman documenting the forced removal and incarceration of Japanese Americans during World War II, as well as organized resistance to incarceration. Included in the collection are records of the Japanese Young Men's Christian Association and the Japanese American Citizens' League in San Francisco, including papers of the Japanese YMCA's executive secretary Lincoln Kanai; Sakai family papers; Goodman's correspondence to and from Japanese American incarcerees, organizations opposing forced removal and incarceration of Japanese Americans, the War Relocation Authority, and others; publications, photographs, and ephemera from the Topaz Relocation Center, where Goodman taught high school; War Relocation Authority records and publications; and newspaper clippings, pamphlets, and reports about forced removal and incarceration created by various government, religious, and civic organizations, in California and nationwide

    Le regard urbain fondu dans les médias

    Extrait de Géopolitique de la ville visuelle – la modernité comme regard, que le sociologue Yoshimi Shunya a fait paraître en 2015. Sous le patronage notamment de Michel Foucault et de Jonathan Crary, Yoshimi y décrit, non pas les éléments qui auraient présidé à la reconfiguration moderne du regard, mais la manière dont la modernité serait advenue dans les villes comme autant d’expériences et de structures collectives fondamentalement innervées par les questions de distribution, d’organisation et de disciplinarisation des regards. À ce titre, l’objectif est de rendre compte d’un véritable retournement épistémologique : ou comment la ville aurait cessé de répondre de logiques architecturales, pour se conformer désormais à des exigences iconiques et médiatiques.吉見俊哉著『視覚都市の地政学』の抜粋。ミシェル・フーコーやジョナサン・クラリーの思想を受け継いで、吉見俊哉は視線の構造の近代的変容ではなく、むしろ都市における近代の経験はどのようにまなざしという経験(つまりまなざしの再構成、再配布、規律化)に貫かれてきたか、という問いかけに基づき都市の再編成を考察する。この意味において本論考が目指すのは認識論的な転回である。つまり、いかにして都市が建築のロジックに従うことをやめて図像的な要請やメディアの要求に順応するかを明らかにするのだ。This paper is an extract from Geopolitics of the Visual City (2015), published in Japanese by the sociologist Yoshimi Shunya, in which the author draws on the work of Michel Foucault and Jonathan Crary to explore not how people’s gaze has been reconstructed in modern times, but how the reorganisation, redistribution and disciplining of the gaze fundamentally informs the way modernity is experienced in cities. The aim is to document a veritable epistemological change: namely, that the city has ceased being driven by architectural principles and now conforms to the demands of visual media

    Synthesis of Mo–Si–B in situ composites by mechanical alloying

    In this study, the synthesis of Mo-Si-B multi-phase alloys, so-called in-situ composites, was attempted with the combination of mechanical alloying (MA) and spark plasma sintering (SPS) processes. MA was conducted with mixed powders of Mo, Si and B using a planetary ball mill under various milling conditions. MAed powders were characterized by X-ray diffractometry (XRD) and scanning electron microscopy (SEM). The results obtained by XRD indicated that Mo-Si-B alloyed powders were successfully produced when elemental powders were milled at a higher milling energy. Vacuum heat treatments after the MA process promoted the formation of Mo-Si-B intermetallic phase in MAed powders. On the other hand, the MAed powders were successfully consolidated by a SPS technique, and as a result, sound compacts of Mo5SiB2-based composites were synthesized

    Effects of Participatory and Physical Life Goals in a Preventive Care Program for Frail Community-Dwelling Older People: A Retrospective Cohort Study

    No full text
    Abstract Date Presented 3/31/2017 Life goals related to activities and participation had a more positive effect on frail older people’s health and quality of life than did life goals related to physical function and structure. The setting of meaningful goals may help to improve the effectiveness of preventive care programs.

    Isothermal oxidation behavior of Al added Mo-Si-B in-situ composites was investigated under Ar-20%O2 and air atmosphere over the temperature range of 1073–1673 K. The Al added Mo-Si-B composites ((Mo-8.7mol%Si-17.4mol%B)-1mol%Al) were prepared by arc-melting, and homogenized at 2073 K for 24 h in an Ar-flow atmosphere. The ternary Mo-Si-B in-situ composite exhibited a rapid mass loss at the initial oxidation stage and then the passive oxidation after the substrates were sealed with borosilicate glass in the temperature range of 1173–1473 K, whereas it exhibited a rapid mass gain around 1073 K. On the other hand, the Al addition significantly improved the oxidation resistance of Mo-Si-B in-situ composites at temperatures from 1073–1573 K. These excellent oxidation resistances are considered to be due to the rapid formation of a continuous, dense scale of Al-Si-O complex oxides.Proceedings of the International Workshop on Designing of Interfacial Structures in Advanced Materials and their Joints, May, 18-20, 2006, held in Osaka, Japa
