No full textDeleuzian Lines: Intersections with Photography and Policy
No full textThis paper conceptualizes Deleuzian lines of thought through a photographic installation, “Entry Interrupted.” By exploring a plateau on which literary author F. Scott Fitzgerald, photographer Robert Ulmer, and poststructuralist philosopher Giles Deleuze converge, this paper explores how lines of break, crack, and rupture emanate within educational policy. Here, philosophy and photography illustrate thresholds through which teacher leaders enter educational policy discourse and development

Mary Ulmer Chiltoskey
No full textThis 1996 photograph, by an unknown photographer, is of Mary Ulmer Chiltoskey (d. 2000), who served as a teacher and librarian in the Cherokee community for many years. Born in Alabama, Mrs. Chiltoskey relocated to Cherokee, North Carolina in 1942 to teach. She developed an interest in revitalizing Cherokee culture and became known as a respected author, historian, and storyteller. She is known for her telling of the Cherokee story, "The Legend of the First Woman" and her publications, "Aunt Mary, Tell Me a Story," "Cherokee Words With Pictures," "Cherokee Plants," and "To Make My Bread," a cooklore she and her husband, woodcarver Goingback Chiltoskey, co-published. In 1989 Mrs. Chiltoskey was named an honorary member of the Eastern Band for her many years of service to the Cherokee people
Hydropsyche asiatica Ulmer 1905
No full textHydropsyche asiatica Ulmer 1905 (Figs. 64–68) Hydropsyche asiatica Ulmer 1905, 91 Neotype. We designate here a neotype for Hydropsyche asiatica Ulmer 1905. The holotype of this species was deposited in the Stettin Museum, Szczecin, Poland (Ulmer 1905). According to Dr. Janusz Majecki (personal communication, 5 August 2017), “I received information from Mr. Kocela who works in [the] National Museum in Szczecin. According to him, [the] entire old collection of insects and other invertebrates was destroyed by burning during 50–60thies [sic], due to "infection" by some fungi and insects. Unfortunately these destroyed specimens/ species were not recorded so I am afraid that [the] holotype of Hydropsyche asiatica has disappeared irreversibly.” A second male specimen from Java mentioned by Ulmer (1905) as probably belonging to this species, described as somewhat smaller but with some “gradual” differences in the genitalia, also apparently was deposited in the Stettin Museum and is lost. No other specimens have been reported before now. The original description is ambiguous as well as incomplete, creating uncertainty about the identity of this species and its distinction from H. hamifera Ulmer 1905 and H. askalaphos Malicky and Chantaramongkol 2000. Therefore, in compliance with the International Code of Zoological Nomenclature (1999, Article 75.1), a neotype is selected from among a series of specimens collected by the senior author from the Himalayan state of Sikkim (original type locality) and conforming with the limited details of the original description. Redescription of adult male. Colour in alcohol dark brown with yellowish golden pubescence, dorsum of head light brown, posterior setal warts on head golden. Length from tip of head to apices of folded forewings about 12.5 mm (n = 7); maxillary palps each about 2.75 mm long; 2nd segment twice as long as 3rd segment, 5th segment about as long as 1st–4th combined; labial palps each about 1.00 mm long. Forewings each about 11.25 mm (n = 7) long (as per original description, expanded wings extending 23 mm); membranes transparent golden yellow with very fine bright reticulate pattern. Length of each hindwing 8.25 mm (n = 7). Male genitalia (Figs. 64–68): Abdominal segment IX longitudinally short; anterolateral margins convex; dorsomedian keel directed posterad, digitate in dorsal view; dorsally and laterally granulose, positioned posteriorly; anteroventral margin slightly constricted; anterodorsal margin notched in dorsal view; posterolateral lobe on each side round, posterior spine row appearing to be continuous with setal row on posterolateral slope of median keel. Depression between segment IX and tergum X almost U–shaped. Body of tergum X short longitudinally, quadrangular in lateral view, roundly quadrate in dorsal view; apicoventral setose lobes modified into two small pointed projections directed posterad in dorsal and lateral views; apicodorsal lobes each triangular in shape with rounded apices lying between apicoventral setose lobes in dorsal view, pointed apically with small setae in lateral view; dorsal interlobular gap very negligible. Inferior appendages each 2–segmented, basal segment (coxopodite) long, broad basally, slightly dilating distally from mid length in lateral view; curved mesad in ventral view. Phallic apparatus simple, convex ventrally, then concave for short distance subapically in lateral view; endotheca with pair of broad, incurved acute apices in ventral view.

Diagnosis: This species belongs to the Hydropsyche asiatica Group. Hydropsyche asiatica is closely similar to H. hamifera Ulmer 1905 as per the original description. Its male genitalia are similar to those of other species of this group based on characteristics cited by different workers (Malicky and Chantaramongkol 2000 and Oláh and Johanson, 2008), but forewings of this species are very different from those of other species in the group, being transparent, deep yellow (yellowish brown or slightly fuscous in other species of this group) and with very fine bright spots or maculations. The male genitalia of this species are very similar to those of H. askalaphos Malicky and Chantaramongkol 2000, reported from Thailand, in the shape of male genitalia in dorsal view, but the median keel is much broader, the apicoventral setose lobes are more rounded and better defined, and the depression of segment IX–tergum X is very small in lateral view in H. askalaphos, whereas the median keel is digitate in dorsal view, the apicoventral setose lobes are represented by very small pointed projections, and the depression between segment IX and tergum X is wide and U-shaped in lateral view in H. asiatica.Published as part of Pandher, Manpreet S., Kaur, Simarjit, Parey, Sajad H. & Saini, Malkiat S., 2017, Review of genus Hydropsyche Pictet 1834 (Insecta: Trichoptera: Hydropsychidae) from India, pp. 331-360 in Zootaxa 4365 (3) on pages 344-349, DOI: 10.11646/zootaxa.4365.3.4, http://zenodo.org/record/111801
Etwas gross aufschreiben. Quellenkritische Anmerkungen zum "Zeytregister" des Ulmer Chronisten Hans Heberle (1597-1677)
No full textDas "Zeytregister" des Ulmer Bauern und Landhandwerkers Hans Heberle ist in seiner Art eine einzigartige Hinterlassenschaft eines bäuerlichern Schriftstellers des 17. Jahrhunderts. Der Gesichtskreis Heberles geht weit über den engen Horizont der Wirtschaftsführung hinaus, indem er persönliche Erfahrungen mit der Schilderung der Kriegsereignisse seiner Zeit verbindet. Unter Berücksichtigung von Schreibintention und -praxis relativieren sich indes die Möglichkeiten einer persönlichkeitsnahen Ausschöpfung der Quelle im Sinne eines 'Ego-Dokuments'. So sind den im wesentlichen auf Geburt und Tod beschränkten Notaten über die eigene Familie, über persönliche Erlebnisse und Beobachtungen aus näherer Anschauung durch die absorbierende Kriegsschilderung Grenzen auferlegt. Die selektive Auswahl der Themenpunkte und das weitestgehende Zurücktreten affektiver Momente erklärt sich auch durch die technische Verfahrensweise Heberles, der nach Ausweis inhaltlicher und formaler Aspekte der Handschrift in deutlichem zeitlichem Ereignisabstand an seiner Chronik arbeitete
fMRI in Parkinson’s Disease
No full textIn this chapter, we review recent advances in functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) in Parkinson’s disease (PD). Covariance patterns of regional resting-state activity in functional brain networks can be used to distinguish Parkinson patients from healthy controls and might play an important role as a biomarker in the future. Thee analyses of motor activity and connectivity have revealed compensatory mechanisms for impaired function of cortico-subcortical feedback loops and have shown how attentional mechanisms modulate the activity in motor loops. Other fMRI studies probing cognitive functions and reward-related behavior have shown that dopamine replacement can have detrimental effects on non-motor brain functions by altering physiological patterns of dopaminergic signaling. Neuroimaging can also be used to assess preclinical compensation of striatal dopaminergic denervation by studying asymptomatic carriers of mutations in genes that can cause PD. In conclusion, fMRI is a powerful tool to monitor changes in functional neural networks and has given important new insights into the pathophysiology of PD

Comparison of non-calibrated pulse-contour analysis with continuous thermodilution for cardiac output assessment in patients with induced hypothermia after cardiac arrest
No full textInduced mild hypothermia after cardiac arrest interferes with clinical assessment of the cardiovascular status of patients. In this situation, non-invasive cardiac output measurement could be useful. Unfortunately, arterial pulse contour is altered by temperature, and the performance of devices using arterial blood pressure contour analysis to derive cardiac output may be insufficient
