New York State's Recycling Agricultural Plastics Project (RAPP): Hurdles and High Points
No full textThe Northeast United States supports a vibrant and diversified agriculture that generates lots of different types of plastic waste.
This presentation focuses on logistical decision points in developing a sustainable recycling infrastructure and viable recycling markets suited for agriculture and non-organic agricultural wastes.
The Recycling Agricultural Plastics Project (RAPP) is a Cornell University initiative working in collaboration with agricultural producers, and with organizations, agencies and businesses that support agriculture, environmental protection, regional economic development and recycling

Miss Louise Rapp
No full textSeated and reading a book, Miss Louise Rapp had her portrait taken in the Bretzman Studio wearing a lace trimmed dress. The Bretzman customer card lists her at 3916 Washington Boulevard in Indianapolis. The city directory shows Helen L. Rapp at that address with her family and she was a student. Her father was Truman C. Rapp, president of Rapp's Cut Price Company, successors to Brown's Shoe Store. There were stores located on North Alabama and East and West Washington Streets. She appears in the 1920 census and was 20 years old.This image is a preservation copy made from an unstable original nitrate negative. The image is part of Series III
Leucascus lobatus Rapp 2004
No full text<i>Leucascus lobatus</i> Rapp, 2004 <p> <i>Diagnosis:</i> Cortex composed of tripods with a fourth rudimentary actine. Skeleton of the tubes composed of triactines and tetractines with cylindrical actines.</p> <p> <i>Synonymies: Leucosolenia primordialis</i>: Brøndsted 1933: 4 (see Rapp 2004), <i>Leucascus lobatus</i>: Rapp 2004: 119.</p> <p> <i>Type material:</i> ZMUC POR-245 (Holotype; Kap Farvel (6007.7’N, 4417’W), Greenland; Kap Farvel Expedition; 08/08/1970; depth: 230 to 250 m; substratum composed of large stones).</p> <p> <i>Type locality:</i> Kap Farvel, Greenland.</p> <p> <i>Description:</i> Colour is white after fixation. The cormus is lobate and the oscula are surrounded by membrane. The surface is smooth and perforated by inhalant apertures (Figure 6 A). The tubes are tightly and regularly anastomosed. The atrial surface is smooth. Reproductive elements are present.</p> <p>Skeleton: The cortical membrane could be recognized only in some regions (Figure 6 B). The cortical skeleton is formed by tripods varying in size and organized in several layers. These spicules are exclusively cortical. Triactines with cylindrical actines are also present in the cortical skeleton, surrounding the inhalant apertures. The skeleton of the tubes is composed of triactines and tetractines with cylindrical actines. This last category of spicule projects the apical actine into the lumen of the tubes (Figure 6 C), but smooth tubes are also present. The atrial skeleton is composed of triactines and tetractines with cylindrical actines.</p> <p> <i>Spicules</i> (Table 4):</p> <p> (<i>i</i>) Tripods (Figure 6 D): Regular and variable in size. Actines are straight with blunt tips, but they are not stout as typical tripods. A fourth rudimentary actine is present;</p> <p> (<i>ii</i>) Triactines (Figure 6 E): Regular, except around the inhalant apertures where they are sagittal. Actines are cylindrical, straight, and with blunt or sharp tips;</p> <p> (<i>iii</i>) Tetractines (Figure 6 E): Similar to the triactines, but with an apical actine that is shorter than the basal ones and ornamented with small spines (Figure 6 F).</p> <p> <i>Remarks:</i> According to Rapp (2004), tetractines are also present in the cortical skeleton of <i>L. lobatus</i>, but in the present work these spicules were found only in the skeleton of the tubes and atrium, suggesting that they are not regularly distributed in the cortex of the sponge. Moreover, the occurrence of triactines around the inhalant apertures and the presence of spines in the apical actine of the tetractines are here described for the first time. <i>Leucascus leptoraphis</i> is the most similar species to <i>L. lobatus</i>. Both of them present skeleton composed of triactines and tetractines with cylindrical actines, and tripods. Nevertheless, <i>L. leptoraphis</i> and <i>L. lobatus</i> can be easily differentiated mainly based on the shape of the cormus, spicule size, and abundance of tetractines (which is high in <i>L. lobatus</i> and rare in <i>L. leptoraphis</i>). The presence of tripods with a fourth rudimentary actine is also exclusive of <i>L. lobatus.</i></p> <p> <i>Distribution:</i> North Atlantic: <i>Leucascus lobatus</i> is endemic to Greenland: Julianehåb Bank (Brøndsted 1933), Kap Farvel (6007.7’N, 4417’W; 6015’N, 4417’W; 6004,5’N, 4302.7’W), Tjalfe station (6506’N, 5419’W), Godthaab station (6022’N, 4727’W), East of Greenland (7040’N, 22W), and Thule station (7634,5’N, 6924,5’W) (Rapp 2004).

Conception et mise en œuvre de rowe, une bibliothèque de communication orientée Web
No full textThe INDES project-team of Inria has been developing HOP, a multi-tier language for Web programming. As part of the RAPP FP7 European project, the team has set out to use HOP as the lingua franca of the robotics applications developed within that project. Part of the challenge lies in the integration of existing robotics code, written using ROS or custom libraries, with HOP-based application.This document reports on the implementation of rowe, a communication library designed the fill the gap between low-level robotics C components on one hand, and other C, C++, ROS, or HOP components on the other. The library aims to be a lightweight, high-performance, ``Web-friendly'' communication library. It implements a socket-like interface that allows programs to exchange JSON objects over WebSockets. We describe the rationale, design, and implementation of rowe.L'équipe-projet Inria INDES développe HOP, un langage à plusieurs niveaux pour la programmation Web. Dans le cadre du projet européen FP7 RAPP, l'équipe s'est donné pour objectif d'utiliser HOP comme lingua franca des applications robotiques développées dans le projet. Un des défis à relever est l'intégration de code robotique existant, utilisant ROS ou des bibliothèques dédiées, avec des applications en HOP.Ce document décrit rowe, une bibliothèque de communication visant à combler le vide entre d'un côté des composants robotiques bas niveau écrits en C, et d'un autre côté des composants écrits en C++, ROS ou HOP. L'objectif est de fournir une bibliothèque de communication légère, haute performance et qui s'intègre facilement à l'environnement Web. Elle met en œuvre une interface de type socket permettant d'échanger des objets JSON sur des WebSockets. Nous décrivons les motivations, les choix de conception, et la mise en œuvre de rowe
