Senator Lisa Murkowski (R-AK) chairs the hearing and makes opening statements. Senators John Cornyn (R-TX) and Joe Manchin (D-WV) introduce Perry. Following his introductory remarks, Perry answers questions about comments he made during his presidential bid about ending the EPA and denying global warming. Perry also talks about nuclear waste disposal. Senator Debbie Stabenow (D-MI) asks Perry about funding for the Facility for Rare Isotope Beams (F-RIB) at Michigan State University
MMWB 001 Hansen Capley McLeod McBride Martin 5-12-1992
No full textAcc #: 268; MMWB 001
This interview with Jean Hansen, Ethel M. “Perry” Capley, Irene McLeod, Doris D. McBride, and Mavis Martin was recorded by Martha Mercer on May 12, 1992 in Mrs. Hansen’s home. The main topic of the interview revolves around the women\u27s experiences marrying American GIs during World War II and moving to the United States. The interview begins with the women discussing their lives in Britain before the during the war, and how their families made their respective livings. They discuss their experiences traveling to America on ships, reflection on the immigration process itself and their interactions with immigration officials, and the difficulties of return travel to visit Britain afterward. They also discuss their adjustment to life in the American South as white women from the UK, and their first impressions of Mobile, and reflect on how living in Mobile has affected their sense of home. The interview concludes with discussion of the Mobile-based women’s club that they founded, originally named the British Brides’ Club.
This interview is part of a collection of three audio cassette recordings and one written interview that Martha Mercer conducted with white World War II war brides from the UK and Australia in 1992-93. Mercer undertook the project for her master’s thesis in History, “British Brides, American Wives: The Immigration and Acculturation of War Brides in Mobile, Alabama, 1945-1993,” which she completed at the University of South Alabama in 1993

Export and mesopelagic particle flux during a North Atlantic spring diatom bloom
No full textSpring diatom blooms are important for sequestering atmospheric CO2 below the permanent thermocline in the form of particulate organic carbon (POC). We measured downward POC flux during a sub-polar North Atlantic spring bloom at 100 m using thorium-234 (234Th) disequilibria, and below 100 m using neutrally buoyant drifting sediment traps. The cruise followed a Lagrangian float, and a pronounced diatom bloom occurred in a 600 km2 area around the float. Particle flux was low during the first three weeks of the bloom, between 10 and 30 mg POC m?2 d?1. Then, nearly 20 days after the bloom had started, export as diagnosed from 234Th rose to 360–620 mg POC m?2 d?1, co-incident with silicate depletion in the surface mixed layer. Sediment traps at 600 and 750 m depth collected 160 and 150 mg POC m?2 d?1, with a settled volume of particles of 1000–1500 mL m?2 d?1. This implies that 25–43% of the 100 m POC export sank below 750 m. The sinking particles were ungrazed diatom aggregates that contained transparent exopolymer particles (TEP). We conclude that diatom blooms can lead to substantial particle export that is transferred efficiently through the mesopelagic. We also present an improved method of calibrating the Alcian Blue solution against Gum Xanthan for TEP measurements

Classical and thermodynamic stability of black holes
No full textWe consider the stability of black holes within both classical general relativity and
the semiclassical thermodynamic description. In particular, we study linearised perturbations and their contributions to the gravitational partition function. Exploring the connection between classical and thermodynamic stability, we find classical instabilities and new families of vacuum black holes.
We start by studying negative modes of black hole partition functions, which represent pathologies in the one-loop quantum corrections. In particular, we extend this study to charged black holes (Reissner-Nordstr¨om), using a method based on gauge-invariant perturbations, and to rotating black holes (Kerr-AdS), where a numerical technique is employed. In the both cases, we find a negative mode in the region where local thermodynamic stability fails, as expected.
We then present the first examples of linearised classical instabilities of vacuum
asymptotically flat black holes. We analyse numerically perturbations of Myers-Perry
solutions, both in the single spin and in the equal spins (odd D) cases. For sufficiently
high rotation, in the so-called ultraspinning regime, new negative modes of the partition function may arise whose threshold marks both the onset of a classical instability of the black hole (not just of the associated black branes) and the bifurcation to a new family of black hole solutions. In the case of singly-spinning solutions, we find the threshold stationary modes signalling the instabilities, confirming a conjecture by Emparan and Myers. In the case of solutions with equal spins, we are able to find perturbations that grow exponentially in time in D = 9 (we believe that this extends to higher odd D).
Furthermore, the new family of solutions bifurcating at the onset of the instability should have a single rotational symmetry, saturating the rigidity theorem
