Richard Lunt
No full textC. Richard K. Lunt was born in 1940 to a family long resident on Coast of Maine. He graduated from Mount Desert Island High School, then then received a B.A. and M.A. in English literature from Northeastern University and the University of Maine, respectively. After spending time in the Peace Corps with his wife, Lunt studied at Indiana University where received his M.A. and Ph.D. in Folklore. He taught for many years at the State University of New York (Potsdam), where he is now a Professor Emeritus. His principal interests lie with the traditional narrators, craftsmen, and maritime folklore of New England, and has published many books on these subjects.https://digitalcommons.library.umaine.edu/songstorysamplercollectors/1020/thumbnail.jp
Oral history interview with Teresa F. Lunt
No full textTranscript, 71 pp.This interview with computer security pioneer Teresa Lunt discusses her work in the computer security field at MITRE Corporation, SRI International, DARPA, and PARC. At SRI she was a principal research scientist on IDES, the first meaningful intrusion detection expert system. Lunt also discusses her work at SRI pioneering a highly secure database system (research initially launched by Dorothy Denning), as well as her work at DARPA’s Information Technology Office where she started programs to fund research in computer and network security. The interview concludes with her discussion of security work at PARC, where she is the Director of the Computer Science Laboratory.

World War I record of service survey for Charles K. Lunt, signed 22 December 1924
No full textQuestionnaire about Charles Kenneth Lunt's service in World War I, 1917-1919, signed by Lunt on 22 December 1924.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.

Representing citizens and consumers in media and communications regulation
No full textWhat do citizens need from the media, and how should this be regulated? Western democracies are witnessing a changing regulatory regime, from "command-andcontrol" government to discursive, multistakeholder governance. In the United Kingdom, the Office of Communications (Ofcom) is required to further the interests of citizens and consumers, which it does in part by aligning them as the citizen-consumer. What is meant by this term, and whether it captures the needs of citizens or subordinates them to those of consumers, has been contested by civil society groups as well as occasioning some soul-searching within the regulator. By triangulating a discursive analysis of the Communications Act 2003, key actor interviews with the regulator and civil society bodies, and focus groups among the public, the authors seek to understand how these terms ("citizen," "consumer," and "citizen-consumer") are used to promote stakeholder interests in the media and communications sector, not always to the benefit of citizens

Mountain uplift and the glaciation of North America – a sensitivity study
No full textThe Miocene (24 to 5 million years ago) wasa period of relative global warmth compared to the Quaternary(2 million years ago to present; e.g. Zachos et al.,2001) and was characterised by the intermittent glaciationof Antarctica only. Paradoxically, the majority of availableproxy data suggest that during the Miocene, pCO2 was similar,or even lower, than the pre-industrial levels (280 ppmv;Pagani et al., 1999; Pearson and Palmer, 2000; K¨urschneret al., 1996, 2008) and at times probably crossed the modelledthreshold value required for sustained glaciation in theNorthern Hemisphere (DeConto et al., 2008). Records ofice rafted debris and the oxygen isotope composition of benthicforaminifera suggest that at several times over the last25 million years substantial amounts of continental ice didbuild up in the Northern Hemisphere but none of these ledto prolonged glaciation. In this contribution, we review evidencethat suggests that in the Miocene the North AmericanCordillera was, at least in parts, considerably lower than today.We present new GCM simulations that imply that smallamounts of uplift of the North American Cordillera resultin significant cooling of the northern North American Continent.Offline ice sheet modelling, driven by these GCMoutputs, suggests that with a reduced topography, inceptionof the Cordilleran ice sheet is prohibited. This suggests thatuplift of the North American Cordillera in the Late Miocenemay have played an important role in priming the climate forthe intensification of Northern Hemisphere glaciation in theLate Pliocene
