Russell Holiday Hart, Jr.
No full textRussell Holiday Hart, Jr., was born in Chicago, Illinois, on May 1, 1928. After graduating (1946) from Thornton Township High School in Harvey, Illinois, Hart enrolled at DePaul University in Greencastle, Indiana. He received his B.A. in economics from DePaul in 1950. After college, Hart spent a year in the General Electric Business Training program in Bridgeport, Connecticut, before entering the US Army (1951-1953). Once discharged from the Army, Hart enrolled at the Indiana University School of Law. While in law school, Hart served on the editorial board of the Indiana Law Journal (v.30-31), was elected Order of the Coif, and received his JD in 1956.
After law school, Hart joined the Lafayette, Indiana, firm Stuart, Devol, Branigin & Ricks. He remained with the firm for the next 40 years. He would ultimately rise to Senior Partner and would head the firm’s litigation practice. Over the years he developed an expertise representing railroad companies and in providing civil, environmental, and insurance litigation.
Service was always a priority for Russell Hart. He served as President of the Indiana State Bar Association, President of the Indiana Defense Lawyers Association, and President of the National Association of Railroad Trial Counsel. He was a fellow of the Indiana Bar Foundation, the American Bar Foundation, and the International Academy of Trial Lawyers, to name just a few organizations. Hart was honored by the Governor of Indiana as a Sagamore of the Wabash for his professional and community service activities and was honored by the Indiana Bar Foundation with its 2007 Legendary Lawyer Award. Russell Holiday Hart was inducted into the Indiana University School of Law Academy of Law Alumni Fellows in 1997.

Consideration of Interference Correlation Properties in a JD-CDMA Mobile Radio System with Coherent Receiver Antenna Diversity
No full textIn code division multiple access (CDMA) mobile radio systems, both intersymbol interference and multiple access interference arise which can be combatted by using Joint Detection (JD) techniques, to reduce the degradation in performance resulting from time variance, coherent receiver antenna diversity (CRAD) can be used. The application of JD techniques offers the possibility to exploit the knowledge of noise covariances at the receiver. If only intercell (cochannel) interference is considered, the noise covariances in the uplink receiver of a multiple receiver antenna CDMA mobile radio system depend mainly on the directions of arrival (DOAs) of the interfering signals and the receiver antenna placement. Therefore, if the interferer DOAs are known at the base station, these covariances could be estimated. In this thesis, a realistic model of the uplink of a JD CDMA mobile radio system with CRAD is described in which the above mentioned interference cancelling method is used. Simulation results according to this model are given and evaluated.Applied SciencesElectrical EngineeringTelecommunications and Traffic Control Systems Grou
Dairy farmers’ perceptions toward the implementation of on-farm Johne’s disease prevention and control strategies
No full textmplementation of specific management strategies on dairy farms is currently the most effective way to reduce the prevalence of Johne’s disease (JD), an infectious chronic enteritis of ruminants caused by Mycobacterium avium subspecies paratuberculosis (MAP). However, dairy farmers often fail to implement recommended strategies. The objective of this study was to assess perceptions of farmers participating in a JD prevention and control program toward recommended practices, and explore factors that influence whether or not a farmer adopts risk-reducing measures for MAP transmission. Semi-structured interviews were conducted with 25 dairy farmers enrolled in a voluntary JD control program in Alberta, Canada. Principles of classical grounded theory were used for participant selection, interviewing, and data analysis. Additionally, demographic data and MAP infection status were collected and analyzed using quantitative questionnaires and the JD control program database. Farmers’ perceptions were distinguished according to 2 main categories: first, their belief in the importance of JD, and second, their belief in recommended JD prevention and control strategies. Based on these categories, farmers were classified into 4 groups: proactivists, disillusionists, deniers, and unconcerned. The first 2 groups believed in the importance of JD, and proactivists and unconcerned believed in proposed JD prevention and control measures. Groups that regarded JD as important had better knowledge about best strategies to reduce MAP transmission and had more JD risk assessments conducted on their farm. Although not quantified, it also appeared that these groups had more JD prevention and control practices in place. However, often JD was not perceived as a problem in the herd and generally farmers did not regard JD control as a “hot topic” in communications with their herd veterinarian and other farmers. Recommendations regarding how to communicate with farmers and motivate various groups of farmers according to their specific perceptions were provided to optimize adoption of JD prevention and control measures and thereby increase success of voluntary JD control programs
Neural correlates of processing valence and arousal in affective words
No full textPsychological frameworks conceptualize emotion along 2 dimensions, "valence" and "arousal." Arousal invokes a single axis of intensity increasing from neutral to maximally arousing. Valence can be described variously as a bipolar continuum, as independent positive and negative dimensions, or as hedonic value (distance from neutral). In this study, we used functional magnetic resonance imaging to characterize neural activity correlating with arousal and with distinct models of valence during presentation of affective word stimuli. Our results extend observations in the chemosensory domain suggesting a double dissociation in which subregions of orbitofrontal cortex process valence, whereas amygdala preferentially processes arousal. In addition, our data support the physiological validity of descriptions of valence along independent axes or as absolute distance from neutral but fail to support the validity of descriptions of valence along a bipolar continuum
