St. Mary's University School of Law: A Personal History

Much of the information contained in this work is a result of personal knowledge. Other information has been taken and verified through the Law School Bulletins from 1941 to the present; faculty minutes; and archives in the office of the University registrar, together with data secured from the files of the dean of the School of Law. An acknowledgment is also due Joseph Schmitz, Ph.D., S.M., deceased, a noted historian who authored "The Society of Mary in Texas," "Texas Statecraft," and "Thus They Lived." This history is restricted to the years 1927 through May 31, 1981. Only those photos of the faculty during this time appear in it

Rancangan Destination Brandingkabupaten Sinjai, Sulawesi Selatan

Kabupaten Sinjai belum memiliki branding khusus pariwisata sehingga dibutuhkan rancangan destination branding yang dapat menjadi alat promosi destinasi. Tujuan penelitian ini adalah 1) untuk mengetahui potensi pariwisata Kabupaten Sinjai; 2) untuk mengusulkan konsep perancangan destination branding Kabupaten Sinjai. Penelitian ini menerapkan pendekatan deskriptif kualitatif dengan pengumpulan data melalui wawancara, observasi dan penyebaran angket (kuesioner) yang dilakukan pada bulan September 2018. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa Kabupaten Sinjai memiliki potensi wisata alam dan budaya dan dibutuhkan cara untuk memperkenalkan potensi tersebut, salah satunya melalui rancangan branding destinasi. Setelah melakukan beberapa tahapan dalam destination branding, hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa ikon yang sesuai untuk dijadikan brand pariwisata untuk Kabupaten Sinjai adalah kuda dengan hasil persentase sebesar 72,7% dan keindahan alam yang dimiliki yang mencakup 3 dimensi. Penelitian ini merekomendasikan pentingnya menerapkan rancangan branding yang telah dilakukan hingga tahap interpretasi potensi serta value  yang dimiliki Kabupaten Sinjai menjadi suatu brand. Selanjutnya, diharapkan agar melanjutkan ke tahap berikutnya yaitu menggunakan brand yang ada sebagai bahan promosi dan menarik wisatawan melalui brand tersebut. Kajian lanjutan sangat dibutuhkan khususnya yang berkaitan dengan bagaimana implementasi brand destinasi Sinjai yang diusulkan.

What are communities of practice? A comparative review of four seminal works

This paper is a comparative review of four seminal works on communities of practice. It is argued that the ambiguities of the terms community and practice are a source of the concept's reusability allowing it to be reappropriated for different purposes, academic and practical. However, it is potentially confusing that the works differ so markedly in their conceptualizations of community, learning, power and change, diversity and informality. The three earlier works are underpinned by a common epistemological view, but Lave and Wenger's 1991 short monograph is often read as primarily about the socialization of newcomers into knowledge by a form of apprenticeship, while the focus in Brown and Duguid's article of the same year is, in contrast, on improvising new knowledge in an interstitial group that forms in resistance to management. Wenger's 1998 book treats communities of practice as the informal relations and understandings that develop in mutual engagement on an appropriated joint enterprise, but his focus is the impact on individual identity. The applicability of the concept to the heavily individualized and tightly managed work of the twenty-first century is questionable. The most recent work by Wenger – this time with McDermott and Snyder as coauthors – marks a distinct shift towards a managerialist stance. The proposition that managers should foster informal horizontal groups across organizational boundaries is in fact a fundamental redefinition of the concept. However it does identify a plausible, if limited, knowledge management (KM) tool. This paper discusses different interpretations of the idea of 'co-ordinating' communities of practice as a management ideology of empowerment

Raindrop size distribution

One of the main impacts of climate change is leading to an increase in the incidence of heavy rain at outage level. In this thesis was to identify and study the impact of changes in raindrop size distributions (DSD) on the fixed terrestrial microwave links as a result of an increase in the incidence of heavy rain in the United Kingdom over this decade. Also to introduce an increasing trend in rain rates associated with outage. The daily DSD spanning was calculated from two different sites data (Chilbolton and Sparsholt), the data span up to 6 years at each site.The attenuation that caused by heavy rain and rain drops is serious problem facing meteorologists and hydrologists. This thesis introduces to calculate the specific attenuation by using new method (power-low relationship). Also introduce the theory of scattering by such hydrometers as rain, snow, hail and fog. There are three techniques to determine the scattering parameters are Rayleigh Scattering, Mie Scattering and T-Matrix method
