G2 cubic transition between two circles with shape control
No full textAbstractThis paper describes a method for joining two circles with an S-shaped or with a broken back C-shaped transition curve, composed of at most two spiral segments. In highway and railway route design or car-like robot path planning, it is often desirable to have such a transition. It is shown that a single cubic curve can be used for blending or for a transition curve preserving G2 continuity with local shape control parameter and more flexible constraints. Provision of the shape parameter and flexibility provide freedom to modify the shape in a stable manner which is an advantage over previous work by Meek, Walton, Sakai and Habib

Letter from children of Kihichi Sakamoto to Project Director [Raymond R. Best], February 14, 1944
No full textLetter from three of his children, Tatsuo, Manabu, and Osamu Sakamoto, requests the release of their father, Kihichi Sakamoto, from the Army Stockade, for the sake of their mother's "health and mind" stating that she has been ill since their stay in Heart Mountain the previous year and has suffered a relapse upon her husband's imprisonment in the stockade; the letter states that, according to her doctor, a lack of kindness and peace of mind regarding this request for release could prove lethal to her.The Willard Schmidt collection, documents some of the administrative duties of Willard Schmidt, the Chief of Internal Security for the War Relocation Authority and the Tule Lake incarceration/segregation camp. This collection contains administrative records and photos documenting the Tule Lake camp, the largest incarceration camp with a peak population of 18,789 and with the most turbulent history. In 1943, the camp was turned into a segregation center to house "disloyal" Japanese Americans relocated from other camps based on their answers to a confusing loyalty questionnaire. The camp endured martial law from November 1943- Jan 1944 after escalating protests and unrest. The hostile environment of the camp lead to many incarcerees renouncing their American citizenship upon the end of incarceration, a process which took 14 years to reverse if they did not wish to be deported to Japan

Peplomycin was injected intramuscularly, 5 or 10 mg every other day, to 8 patients with prostate cancer. Total dose ranged from 30 to 200 mg. According to Karnofsky's criteria, only one case was I-B, other cases were in group 0. Pulmonary fibrosis, one of the major side effects of this drug, was experienced in 2 cases. This anticancer agent was injected directly into the prostate, 20 mg once a week for 5 weeks, to 2 patients who were refractory to estrogen treatment and had lower urinary obstruction for relief of local symptoms. One case was I-A, and the other was I-B. No severe side effect was observed. Serum concentration of Peplomycin after administration was measured by a bioassay. Serum levels of Peplomycin after a local injection of 20 mg and after one intravenous shot of 10 mg were almost equal
