This study examined advertising for women's personal care products from 1950 through 1994 in widely read, long-lived magazines whose audience have different demographic profiles: Ladies' Home Journal, Mademoiselle, and Essence

BCFT moduli space in level truncation

We propose a new non-perturbative method to search for marginal deformations in level truncated open string field theory. Instead of studying the flatness of the effective potential for the marginal field (which is not expected to give a one-to-one parametrization of the BCFT moduli space), we identify a new non-universal branch of the tachyon potential which, from known analytic examples, is expected to parametrize the marginal flow in a much larger region of the BCFT moduli space. By a level 18 computation in Siegel gauge, we find an increasingly flat effective potential in the non-universal sector, connected to the perturbative vacuum and we confirm that the coefficient of the marginal field (lambda_SFT) has a maximum compatible with the value where the solutions stop existing in the standard Sen-Zwiebach approach. At the maximal reachable level, the effective potential still deviates from flatness for large values of the tachyon, but the Ellwood invariants stay close to the correct BCFT values on the whole branch and the full periodic moduli space of the cosine deformation is covered.Comment: 33 pages, several figures.

On cavitation in Elastodynamics

Motivated by the works of Ball (1982) and Pericak-Spector and Spector (1988), we investigate singular solutions of the compressible nonlinear elastodynamics equations. These singular solutions contain discontinuities in the displacement field and can be seen as describing fracture or cavitation. We explore a definition of singular solution via approximating sequences of smooth functions. We use these approximating sequences to investigate the energy of such solutions, taking into account the energy needed to open a crack or hole. In particular, we find that the existence of singular solutions and the finiteness of their energy is strongly related to the behavior of the stress response function for infinite stretching, i.e. the material has to display a sufficient amount of softening. In this note we detail our findings in one space dimension

Researching young people's sexuality and learning about sex: experience, need, and sex and relationship education

This paper describes findings from an in-depth case study of young people's sexuality and learning about sex. Focus groups and unstructured interviews were conducted with young women and young men aged 15-16 years in a school in the north of England. Analysis focused on disjunctions between reported sexual behaviour in a park and in a bedsitting room, and the content of school sex and relationship education. Tensions between the accounts are considered for their impact on learning about sex, sexual negotiation, subjectivity and inter-generational understanding. Despite some negative experiences in sex education, the young people interviewed desired the affirmation and support of adults, and recommend sex and relationship education as the most appropriate vehicle for providing this. The value added outcomes of participation in the study, including consciousness and awareness raising, and the opportunity for reflection and debate and selves as 'experts', enhanced young people's view that non-judgemental and meaningful advice and guidance are possible in formal learning contexts. Implications for future forms of sex and relationship education are discussed.</p

Isomorphism of spaces of analytic functions on n-circular domains

The space A(D) of all analytic functions in a complete n-circular do- main D in Cn; n 2; is considered with a natural Fréchet topology. Some su¢ cient conditions for the isomorphism of such spaces are ob- tained in terms of certain subtle geometric characteristic of domains D. This investigation complements essentially the second authors result [8] on necessary geometric conditions of such isomorphisms

AN ANALYSIS ON SUFFERING IN KAY GREGORY’S NOVEL "MARRY ME STRANGER"

Literature is a writing that expresses life in words, and contains about a story or an experience that is created and consumed by human beings. One of literary works is novel. By reading novel we can understand the human being temper and acquire the new knowledge of life. That is why the writer of this thesis is interested in conducting and analyzing about suffering in Kay Gregory’s novel ‘Marry me Stranger’. This analysis is conducted to analyze suffering that is experienced by Isabella. The investigation is focused on Isabella’s suffering, the causes of Isabella’s suffering and the solution on Isabella’s suffering. This research uses descriptive method because the study is to describe or to give confirmation about suffering in Kay Gregory’s novel ‘Marry me Stranger’. Then, in appreciating Kay Gregory’s novel, the thesis writer uses an objective approach. It is based on studying a literary work itself that is only on suffering. The population of this study is the whole events in the novel ‘Marry me Stranger’ by Kay Gregory, while the sample of this study are paragraphs, dialogues, and quotations related to suffering. The result of this study shows that there are three sufferings that are experienced by Isabella, they are : being kept in the room, feeling jealous and feeling underestimated. Then, the causes of Isabella’s suffering are : refusal to marry, Brand’s memory of Mary and Brand’s business and being regarded as an immature woman. In solving the problem about Isabella’s suffering, Isabella overcomes her suffering by doing some ways that deal with each suffering, they are : running away, taking Brand’s attention and sympathy and moved to another place

Infrared and kinematic properties of the substellar object G 196-3B

We report unusual near- and mid-infrared photometric properties of G 196-3 B, the young substellar companion at 16 arcsec from the active M2.5-type star G 196-3 A, using data taken with the IRAC and MIPS instruments onboard Spitzer. G 196-3 B shows markedly redder colors at all wavelengths from 1.6 up to 24 micron than expected for its spectral type, which is determined at L3 from optical and near-infrared spectra. We discuss various physical scenarios to account for its reddish nature, and conclude that a low-gravity atmosphere with enshrouded upper atmospheric layers and/or a warm dusty disk/envelope provides the most likely explanations, the two of them consistent with an age in the interval 20-300 Myr. We also present new and accurate separate proper motion measurements for G 196-3 A and B confirming that both objects are gravitationally linked and share the same motion within a few mas/yr. After integration of the combined spectrophotometric spectral energy distributions, we obtain that the difference in the bolometric magnitudes of G 196-3 A and B is 6.15 +/- 0.10 mag. Kinematic consideration of the Galactic space motions of the system for distances in the interval 15-30 pc suggests that the pair is a likely member of the Local Association, and that it lay near the past positions of young star clusters like alpha Persei less than 85 Myr ago, where the binary might have originated. At these young ages, the mass of G 196-3 B would be in the range 12-25 Mjup, close to the frontier between planets and brown dwarfs.Comment: Accepted for publication in ApJ
