Education law/educating gender
No full textBook synopsis: Feminist Perspectives on Child Law is a collection of interdisciplinary socio-legal essays which explore the complex relationship between childhood,gender and the law. Drawing on a wide range of feminist and critical theories and empirical research, these original essays challenge the gender neutrality of law; they explore the shifting constructions of childhood by law, legal practice and popular culture; and they provide critical and timely insights into the complex relationship between adults and children.\ud
\ud
The essays go beyond the traditional boundaries of child law within the law school curriculum and within legal practice by addressing a wide range of issues, such as health, criminal justice, education, sexuality and domestic violence.\ud
\ud
By approaching these issues in innovative ways, the essays question the impact of gender on social and cultural understandings of childhood and on contemporary interpretations of child welfare and give voice to the different choices and experiences of male and female children

The Monk Line Segmentation (MLS) Dataset
No full text<p>Overview</p>
<p>The MLS dataset available from this page consists of 31 handwritten page scans. The dataset contains medieval, historical and contemporary manuscripts, and has the purpose of testing line-segmentation algorithms. The collection contains a wide variation of the common problems in handwriting recognition: lines with overlapping ascenders/descenders, slightly rotated scans and curved base lines. <br>
</p>
<p>Download</p>
<p>The MLS dataset was collected from the Monk system as of Friday May 17 14:15:04 CEST 2013. It was collected by Lambert Schomaker in May 2013 at the Institution of Artificial Intelligence and Cognitive Engineering (ALICE), University of Gronigen. </p>
<p>The tar.gz file contains the image dataset for historical manuscripts. For more details please refer to the README file in the tar.gz file. The dataset downloaded for research use only. © 2013 Copyright. <br>

Stabilized interior penalty methods for the time-harmonic Maxwell equations
No full textWe propose stabilized interior penalty discontinuous Galerkin methods for the indefinite
time–harmonic Maxwell system. The methods are based on a mixed formulation of the
boundary value problem chosen to provide control on the divergence of the electric field.
We prove optimal error estimates for the methods in the special case of smooth coefficients
and perfectly conducting boundary using a duality approach.Supported in part by the NSF (Grant DMS-9807491) and by the Supercomputing Institute
of the University of Minnesota. This work was carried out when the author was visiting

Newfoundland Monkstown Dory
No full textThis is the model of the Newfoundland row dory and is patterned after the dories which were designed and perfected by the brothers John and Henry Monk of Monkstown, Placentia Bay. This dory was often mistaken for the Lunenburg dory owing to the fact that like the Nova Scotian dory she did not have rubbers or rubbing streaks outside her gunwales. There were differences however between the two in rake, flare and sheer and while the “Lunenburger” carried a raised gunwhale forward, the “Monk” did not. Placentia Bay fishermen claimed that no other type dory was superior to the “Monk” for general seaworthyness. Exterior: yellow with green bottom. Interior: yellow with green and blue trim
