Gage provides audible signal to facilitate checkout of connector pins
Commercial push gage has been modified to enable rapid, accurate testing of paddle pins in distributors, bullet pins and patch boards. The purpose of the gage is to ensure that the pins will not break electrical contact when they are subjected to a minimum, preset pressure
Correlation tuned cross-over between thermal and nonthermal states following ultrafast transient pumping
We examine electron-electron mediated relaxation following excitation of a
correlated system by an ultrafast electric field pump pulse. The results reveal
a dichotomy in the temporal evolution as one tunes through a Mott
metal-to-insulator transition: in the metallic regime relaxation can be
characterized by evolution toward a steady-state electronic distribution well
described by Fermi-Dirac statistics with an increased effective temperature;
however, in the insulating regime this quasithermal paradigm breaks down with
relaxation toward a nonthermal state with a more complicated electronic
distribution that does not vary monotonically as a function of energy. We
characterize the behavior by studying changes in the energy, photoemission
response, and electronic distribution as functions of time. Qualitatively these
results should be observable on short enough time scales that the electrons
behave like an isolated system not in contact with additional degrees of
freedom which can act as a thermal bath. Importantly, proper modeling used to
analyze experimental findings should account for this behavior, especially when
using strong driving fields or studying materials whose physics may manifest
the effects of strong correlations.Comment: Main Text: 5 pages, 4 figures; Supplementary Material: 3 pages, 5

Experiences of youth justice: youth justice discourses and their multiple effects
Interventions within youth justice systems draw on a range of rationales and philosophies. Traditionally demarcated by a welfare/justice binary, the complex array of contemporary rationales meld different philosophies and practices, suggesting a mutability that gives this sphere a continued (re)productive and felt effect. While it may be increasingly difficult to ascertain which of these discourses is dominant in different jurisdictions in the UK, particular models of justice are perceived to be more prominent (Muncie, 2006). Traditionally it is assumed that Northern Ireland prioritises restoration, Wales prioritises rights, England priorities risk and Scotland welfare (McVie, 2011; Muncie, 2008, 2011). However, how these discourses are enacted in practice, how multiple and competing rationales circulate within them and most fundamentally how they are experienced by young people is less clear. This paper, based on research with young people who have experienced the full range of interventions in the youth justice system in Northern Ireland examines their narratives of ‘justice’. It considers how different discourses might influence the same intervention and how the deployment of multiple rationalities gives the experience of ‘justice’ its effect

Elementary Keyboarding
This textbook is designed for a course in keyboarding for elementary students. It contains day-by-day lessons for the Phase I (the keyboard; basic function keys; technique and confidence) section of the course; which lasts for six weeks. Technique; drills; reviews; and practice activities are included. The keyboard is illustrated with line drawings. (The lessons correspond to the teacher\u27s guide to this course.) (KC
How can medical schools contribute to bringing about health equity?
The role of medical schools is in a process of change. The World Health Organization has declared that they can no longer be ivory towers whose primary focus is the production of specialist physicians and cutting edge laboratory research. They must also be socially accountable and direct their activities towards meeting the priority health concerns of the areas they serve. The agenda must be set in partnership with stakeholders including governments, health care organisations and the public.<p></p>
The concept of social accountability has particular resonance for the Bar Ilan Faculty of Medicine in the Galilee, Israel’s newest medical school, which was established with a purpose of reducing health inequities in the Region. As a way of exploring and understanding the issues, discussions were held with international experts in the field who visited the Galilee. A symposium involving representatives from other medical schools in Israel was also held to extend the discourse. Deliberations that took place are reported here.<p></p>
The meaning of social accountability was discussed, and how it could be achieved. Three forms of action were the principal foci – augmentation of the medical curriculum, direct action through community engagement and political advocacy. A platform was set for taking the social accountability agenda forward, with the hope that it will impact on health inequalities in Israel and contribute to discussions elsewhere
