    Letter from Lillian Baker to her supporters with enclosure of letter from Paul T. Bannai regarding the Commission on Wartime Relocation and Internment of Civilians hearing notice. Baker urges people not to listen to "anti-American propaganda" relating to American treatment of Japanese Americans during World War II.The Japanese American Relocation Collection is composed of ephemera related to the relocation program during World War II. Items include the official government report of Manzanar Relocation Center, a photo album, post-war activism materials related to preserving and remembering the camps, various clippings, and documents. The strength of this collection is found in its many perspectives on the controversial relocation program and how it has been presented since World War II

    Volterra Centennial Meetings - Invited talks given by Christopher Baker at Arlington & Tempe

    June 1996 saw two meetings to mark the centennial of the mathematical work of Vito Volterra, the first being held at the University of Texas at Arlington (organised by Professors Corduneanu and Kanner) and the second at the State University of Arizona at Tempe. In invited talks at each meeting, the first-named author presented joint work that follows, in chronological sequence, in this technical report. Christopher T H Baker & Arslang Tang 2 GENERALIZED HALANAY INEQUALITIES FOR VOLTERRA FUNCTIONAL DIFFERENTIAL EQUATIONS AND DISCRETIZED VERSIONS CHRISTOPHER T.H. BAKER 1 & ARSALANG TANG 2 Department of Pure and Applied Mathematics, The Victoria University of Manchester, England Abstract. Halanay's inequality provides a decreasing bound on a function satisfying a delay-differential inequality, subject to certain conditions, and it has been used by Halanay to analyze asymptotic stability of the zero solution of a certain delay-differential equations with fixed lag.

    Regulation of Anopheles gambiae male accessory gland genes influences postmating response in female.

    No full text
    In Drosophila, the accessory gland proteins (Acps) secreted from the male accessory glands (MAGs) and transferred along with sperm into the female reproductive tract have been implicated in triggering postmating behavioral changes, including refractoriness to subsequent mating and propensity to egg laying. Recently, Acps have been found also in Anopheles, suggesting similar functions. Understanding the mechanisms underlying transcriptional regulation of Acps and their functional role in modulating Anopheles postmating behavior may lead to the identification of novel vector control strategies to reduce mosquito populations. We identified heat-shock factor (HSF) binding sites within the Acp promoters of male Anopheles gambiae and discovered three distinct Hsf isoforms; one being significantly up-regulated in the MAGs after mating. Through genome-wide transcription analysis of Hsf-silenced males, we observed significant down-regulation in 50% of the Acp genes if compared to control males treated with a construct directed against an unrelated bacterial sequence. Treated males retained normal life span and reproductive behavior compared to control males. However, mated wild-type females showed a ∼46% reduction of egg deposition rate and a ∼23% reduction of hatching rate (∼58% combined reduction of progeny). Our results highlight an unsuspected role of HSF in regulating Acp transcription in A. gambiae and provide evidence that Acp down-regulation in males leads a significant reduction of progeny, thus opening new avenues toward the development of novel vector control strategies.-Dottorini, T., Persampieri, T., Palladino, P., Baker, D.

    EDZL scheduling analysis

    No full text
    A schedulability test is derived for the global Earliest Deadline Zero Laxity (EDZL) scheduling algorithm on a platform with multiple identical processors. The test is sufficient, but not necessary, to guarantee that a system of independent sporadic tasks with arbitrary deadlines will be successfully scheduled, with no missed deadlines, by the multiprocessor EDZL algorithm. Global EDZL is known to be at least as effective as global Earliest-Deadline-First (EDF) in scheduling task sets to meet deadlines. It is shown, by testing on large numbers of pseudo-randomly generated task sets, that the combination of EDZL and the new schedulability test is able to guarantee that far more task sets meet deadlines than the combination of EDF and known EDF schedulability tests.In the second part of the paper, an improved version of the EDZL-schedulability test is presented. This new algorithm is able to efficiently exploit information on the slack values of interfering tasks, to iteratively refine the estimation of the interference a task can be subjected to. This iterative algorithm is shown to have better performance than the initial test, in terms of schedulable task sets detected

It ia our de-aire to recognize the many contributiona made to the life of Coaldale by Mr. Baldry.. He served the interests of the students of this district as a member and chairman of the school board for over 15 years. In addition many years of service to the community went into his work as a member of the Village Council. A c 2 PRINCIPAL’S MESSAGE In a democratic society such as ours it is the privilege of every boy and girl to obtain twelve years of education at Public Expense. It is the responsibility of every boy and girl in a society such as ours to take advantage of these educational opportunities which are available to them. It Is well to remember that when privileges are abused it is possible for the privilege itself to be lost. It is my hope that each and everyone of you are using to the best advantage,the privilege which has been accorded to you,by the citizens of our community, In this school of ours. I wish you every success in your academic endeavors, and it is my prayer that you find it possible to follow the vocation or profession which you have chosen, so that the contributions you make to society throughout your life, will repay in part, the sacrifices which others have made for you. 3 Mr. E.

Here, in the sanctuary of High School, we were taught; now we must teach ourselves, tony of us came to Coaldale High from other schools, other provinces and even other countries. Among us are students of different races and of many nationalities. Neverthe­less, here, we are gathered as one class, pursuing a common goal-to seek truth,to glean knowledge, and to develop an understanding of life.As our forebearers have done and as our successors shall have to do, we too, must carry high the banners of our school. It will now be our privilege and duty to help make our nation a better place in which to live. ( Writing up the minutes, our Secretary of 1956, 1957& '58 is very neat. Ih an oratofcical contest in 1956 she could not be beat. 8ur school years can be divided into three books. Book One consisting of the elementary grades, Book Two--Junior High, and Book Three--High School. Each of these books contain chapters. It was throughout these chapters that we learned and put into action the spirit of good sportsmanship. It was also here that we learned to respect the rights, not only of the individual, but of the community and of the country. 1 believe that if we want to know where our happiness or where our usefulness lies, we will have to analyze frankly our own weaknesses. We may make mistakes,but if we are willing to learn and to profit by these mistakes and to ever press forward towards a worthy goal, then our dreams may become a reality and life a useful thing. It is tnen we can offer our gift to society; it may be as a teacher, a minister, a journalist, a doctor, or an engineer. It is a great privilege to be one of the grad­uates to pass through these halls of learning. I hope that we may be worthy of the faith and the trust placed in us by our parents and our teachers. c In the words of Shakespeare, "Parting Is such sweet sorrow". And so, we bid farewell to Coaldale High School. 8 LORRAINE HIGA JUDY JACOBSEN Yearbook------------------11 Bugle------------------------12 Dance Club------- 10,11 Curling Club--------- 12 RAY SHIMA Year Book----------11,12 Bugle--------------------9,12 Dance Club--------10,11 Curling---------------------- 9 Executive—10,11,12 Year Book--------------- 1& Bugle----------------------- 12 Dance Club-------10,11 GRADUATES GLENDA JENSEN DIRK KOK Curling--------------- 9,1C Year Book---------11,12 Bugle-----------------9,12 Glee.
