Height Data
No full textThese are height measurement data for female, individually-known African elephants in the Samburu and Buffalo Springs National Reserves. These data were used in the manuscript "Orphaning stunts growth in African Elephants", currently under review. The first Excel worksheet is titled "GW.growth.curve". It shows the median of the height measurements taken from an elephant on a single date by author George Wittemyer. These medians were used to create a von Bertalanffy growth curve upon which we structured the Bayesian analysis that addressed our main hypotheses. The second worksheet titled "All.data" shows all measurements taken by either author. The third worksheet shows a summary of author Jenna Parker's measurements, including which individuals were not included in the main analysis because we are unsure of their exact birthdate
Rahanpesijän tietoisuus varojen laittomasta alkuperästä tahallisuusvaatimuksena
Full text linkThis article discusses a money launderer’s awareness of the illegal origin of property as a requirement of intent. The aim of the research is to find out what is required for fulfilling the requirement of intent. A money launderer’s awareness of the illegal origin of property has been assessed in this article from the perspectives of theory and earlier legal practice.
The object of intent in money laundering is the property’s illegal origin, to which the intent of the perpetrator must extend at the time of the act. The requirement of intent is fulfilled when the perpetrator perceives the illegal origin of the property to be a more likely alternative than its noncriminal origin. However, in some situations intent can also be based on negligence of the duty to investigate, even if the perpetrator had not perceived the property to be criminally obtained with a more than 50% certainty. The duty to investigate leads to a punishment for an intentional act especially in situations where the perpetrator, in order to avoid criminal liability, has not attempted to ascertain the origin of the property to a sufficient degree.
In practice, the fulfillment of the requirement of intent is based on the circumstances of the act, which means that the factors to be considered depend on each case

Welfare: as American as baseball
No full textThere are great many things that Americans can truly claim as their own, welfare is one of them. Welfare has become and American staple that rivals fords and baseball. America has created an ideology that is both accepting and allowing of consumerism and inefficiency, when it comes to fiscal responsibility. Americans idealize capitalism and also charity work, causing a collision of ideas politically and socially. The allowance for both has brought on two schools of thought. In one school, we as a culture press for innovation and poise in society, in the other we see classes of people who are constantly behind the economical curve. As they have come to coexist, the principles of our society have learned to accept that some people will accelerate and others will struggle with assistance of the government. Welfare has become cyclical (from adult to child, and then to that child as an adult) because we as a culture accept that welfare exists through legislation, ideals and in the business sector. Welfare has become a truly American innovation, spreading, and expanding, creating an entire genre of social status. Welfare is an American staple because even though we as a culture recognize its continued presence, we have yet to understand it. Comprehensive approaches to both education and the dolling out of American tax dollars would correct and also alleviate the fiscal beating that we as a society experience, and also remove the stigma applied to welfare recipients.M.A.L.S.Includes summaryIncludes bibliographical references (p. 52)by Jenna L.

From Wunderkammern to Kinect: The Creation of 'Shadow Worlds'
No full textThis paper focuses on two projects, Still Life No. 1 and Shadow Worlds | Writers' Rooms [Brontë Parsonage], to reveal the creative approaches the authors take to site, technology, and the self in their production of shadow worlds as sites of wonder. Informed by the uncanny (re-animation and the double) and an interest in the limen (thresholds in the real and virtual realms), the projects explore white light and infrared digital 3D scanning technologies as tools for capture and transformation. The authors will discuss how they suture the past with the present and ways that light slips secretly between us, revealing other realms
Bodies of evidence: the image, the flesh, and the modern crisis of the human
No full textBodies of Evidence is a study of the transnational optics of anti-blackness across German and U.S. settler colonial projects, with a particular attention to the afterlives of visual discourses in present-day politics and memory. This dissertation analyzes case studies from the U.S., Germany, and German South West Africa, what is present-day Namibia, to track the trace of settler colonial and racial ideologies across seemingly discrete and ruptural violences. Rather than continue to treat these histories and archives as distinct or hierarchical instances of violence, I argue for the importance of interpreting them as part of a broader, uninterrupted narrative. Bodies of Evidence adopts a transnational scope that places settler colonial violence—including the Herero and Nama genocide in German South West Africa—alongside European genocide, framing these events as part of the same ideological and scopic regime. My interdisciplinary analysis builds upon critical race theory, critical visual studies, postcolonial and Black feminist scholarship, museum studies, biological anthropology, among other interdisciplinary and theoretical threads. I critically interpret visual and material evidence with a methodological emphasis on framing the positionality of the viewer in relation to questions about the gaze and modes of looking. Thinking through the looped gaze, parallactic witnessing, and the ethics of looking, I argue that we can transform the act of looking if we understand how the circulation and containment of colonial violences continue to shape ways of seeing.Ph.D.Includes bibliographical referencesby Jenna R.

Anonymous Was a Woman:A Museums and Feminism Reader
No full textFeminism is a social justice movement that aims to end sexism, sexist exploitation, and oppression - and to change society for the better, for all.Alongside class and race, gender fundamentally shapes our perceptions and beliefs. But issues of sex and gender are still largely ignored in many museums and galleries: the inequalities that exist in society are replicated in museum practice. And, in turn, these practices reinforce and reaffirm social inequality.Anonymous Was A Woman is a 300-page positive, inspiring, practical reader, focusing on actions being taken within museums (including the Art Gallery of Ontario, Detroit Institute of Arts, Minneapolis Institute of Art, National Museums Liverpool, V&A and the Whitechapel Gallery) to address these issues, as well as new initiatives aiming to impact and change museums from the outside.Featuring carefully selected texts from our two-volume Feminism and Museums, this book has a new Introduction by editor Jenna C Ashton, and each text has been reviewed and updated by the author
Arvopaperimarkkinoita koskevan tiedottamisrikoksen ja markkinoiden manipuloinnin konkurrenssiongelma
No full textTämä tutkimus käsittelee arvopaperimarkkinoita koskevan tiedottamisrikoksen ja markkinoiden manipuloinnin konkurrenssiongelmaa. Rikoskonkurrenssilla on rikosoikeuden yleisiin oppeihin kuuluvana osa-alueena keskeinen merkitys niin rikosoikeustieteellisesti kuin käytännön ratkaisutoiminnankin näkökulmasta, sillä lainkäyttäjä joutuu ottamaan usein kantaa konkurrenssikysymyksiin. Tämän tutkimuksen tarpeellisuutta korostaa rikoskonkurrenssia koskevan aikaisemman tutkimuksen vähyyden lisäksi markkinoiden manipuloinnin ja tiedottamisrikoksen soveltamiskäytännön niukkuus, minkä vuoksi niiden konkurrenssikysymysten systematisoimista ja jäsentämistä voidaan pitää perusteltuna.
Tutkimusmetodina on lainoppi. Tässä työssä tutkitaan lainopillisesta näkökulmasta yhtäältä sitä, ovatko markkinoiden manipulointi ja tiedottamisrikos keskenään lainkonkurrenssissa sekä toisaalta sitä, minkälaisista yksiköintikriteereistä luonnollinen katsantokanta muodostuu mainittujen rikostyyppien kohdalla. Koska rikoslain 51 luvun normit voivat olla päällekkäisiä myös muilta osin, on tutkimuksessa arvioitu myös sisäpiirintiedon väärinkäytön ja tiedottamisrikoksen rikosoikeudellista suhdetta. Lisäksi tutkimuksessa on otettu kantaa myös petos- ja markkinointirikoksen sekä markkinoiden manipuloinnin ja tiedottamisrikoksen keskinäisiin konkurrenssikysymyksiin. Lainkonkurrenssiin ja yksiköintiin liittyviä kysymyksiä on konkretisoitu pääasiassa arvopaperimarkkinarikoksia koskevilla tuomioistuinratkaisuilla sekä osin myös muita rikostyyppejä koskevalla korkeimman oikeuden ratkaisukäytännöllä.
Tutkimuksen kannalta keskeinen johtopäätös on se, että joissakin tilanteissa voi olla perusteltua päätyä siihen lopputulokseen, että markkinoiden manipuloinnin ja tiedottamisrikoksen tunnusmerkistöt eivät ole lainkonkurrenssissa keskenään. Yksiköinnin näkökulmasta merkitystä on erityisesti yhtenäisellä motivaatioperustalla, vaikka käytännössä myös teon objektiivisen puolen vaatimuksilla on keskeinen merkitys sen osoittamisessa, että osateot ovat saman motivaatiotilan ilmausta
