Book Review: Military Culture Shift: The Impact of War, Money, and Generational Perspective on Morale, Retention, and Leadership
No full textAuthor: Corie Weathers
Reviewed by Rodger M. Kissane, graduate student, College of International Security Affairs, National Defense University
Rodger M. Kissane provides a thoughtful review of this important book on “bridging and even transcending generational differences” in the US military. Kissane highlights author Corie Weathers’s “insightful . . . recognition that each generation imprints itself upon the institution in ways that reflect their life experiences.” He also outlines the book’s relevance to leaders in that Weathers addresses “ ‘messy dynamics’ leaders confront in synthesizing . . . various perspectives, ideals, and values.”https://press.armywarcollege.edu/parameters_bookshelf/1045/thumbnail.jp

Manipulating fluids and fields In multimaterial fibers
No full textThis electronic version was submitted by the student author. The certified thesis is available in the Institute Archives and Special Collections.Thesis: Ph. D., Massachusetts Institute of Technology, Department of Materials Science and Engineering, 2020Cataloged from student-submitted PDF of thesis.Includes bibliographical references (pages 133-143).From conduits for fluid transport to the threads in highly absorbant textiles, high aspect ratio fibers and tubings have been used for thousands of years to manipulate fluids. The emergence of multimaterial thermal drawing as a method to fabricate fibers with precise spatial control of a broad range of materials, such as polymers and metals, enables the integration of new functionalities into these traditionally single material tools. In this thesis we investigate the use of thermally drawn fibers as a means to manipulate fluids and electric fields for various applications. As a conduit for fluids flowing in the axial direction of the fiber, we explore new regimes in inertial microfluidics by leveraging the geometric tunability of fiber channel cross-sections. By integrating electrodes onto the channel surface, we later design a microfluidic device capable of inertial-dielectrophoretic live/dead cell separation at throughputs as high as 100 5[mu]L/min. In addition, we show that UV-transparent hollow fibers can be used as templates to fabricate highly complex 3-D hydrogel microparticles with dielectrophoretic sub-particle localization. Finally, by integrating surface-interfaced porous structures into electrode-integrated fibers, we demonstrate fluid flow manipulation in the radial direction for application as a fiber sweat sensor.by Rodger Yuan.Ph.

Editor and Author: Review of \u3ci\u3eMax and Marjorie: The Correspondence between Maxwell E. Perkim & Marjorie Kinnan Rawlings\u3c/i\u3e. Rodger L. Tarr, ed.
No full textMax & Marjorie, the complete correspondence between America\u27s best-known book editor and one of his best-known authors, will please several groups of readers. For literary scholars, it is a useful addition to the earlier editions of Maxwell Perkins\u27s correspondence. Historians of publishing will appreciate insights into book promotion, magazine publication, and other business issues that are extensively discussed. The many readers who have enjoyed The Yearling will have the opportunity to get to know its author. Eminently readable, the edition should reach a large audience beyond academe. Its broad appeal presented the editor, Rodger Tarr, with an enormous challenge, a challenge most evident in the annotation.

Newspaper journalism and the changing publics of multimedia cities
No full textThis document is a rendition of the poster that was presented at the ESF conference ‘Cities and Media: Cultural Perspectives on Urban Identities in a Mediatized World’, held 25-29 October 2006 in Vadstena, Sweden. It comprises a brief survey of one major theme of Scott Rodger' doctoral work: the future orientations of editors and managers – the attempts made to project the political (and economic) standing of the Toronto Star into the present and near future ‘multimedia city’

An exploratory study of community expectations regarding public forests in Western Australia
No full textFor much of the 20th century the management of public forests in Western Australia focused on timber production and economic outputs. Shifts in environmental attitudes over the last four decades have contributed to a much broader set of community expectations. This paper analysed these expectations regarding public forests in south-western Australia at the start of the 21st century. A two-stage survey approach included a face-to-face interview followed by a questionnaire. The questionnaire consisted of a comprehensive list of 176 items that forests potentially provide, such as conservation, scenery, bushwalking and timber products, and respondents were asked to indicate the extent of their support for each. Those surveyed covered a range of ages and affiliations including academia, conservation, forestry, primary production, Indigenous interests and young people. Clearly evident was strong support for the aesthetic values of these forests and their natural environment, with weaker but still notable support for using forest resources. The comprehensive list of items in the questionnaire provides a novel, rapid means of assessing community expectations, with potential benefits for forestry planning and policy development
