Evaluating prose style transfer with the Bible
In the prose style transfer task a system, provided with text input and a
target prose style, produces output which preserves the meaning of the input
text but alters the style. These systems require parallel data for evaluation
of results and usually make use of parallel data for training. Currently, there
are few publicly available corpora for this task. In this work, we identify a
high-quality source of aligned, stylistically distinct text in different
versions of the Bible. We provide a standardized split, into training,
development and testing data, of the public domain versions in our corpus. This
corpus is highly parallel since many Bible versions are included. Sentences are
aligned due to the presence of chapter and verse numbers within all versions of
the text. In addition to the corpus, we present the results, as measured by the
BLEU and PINC metrics, of several models trained on our data which can serve as
baselines for future research. While we present these data as a style transfer
corpus, we believe that it is of unmatched quality and may be useful for other
natural language tasks as well
A Survey Comparing Aspects of Programs for the Able Student at Lochburn Junior High School in the Clover-Park School District to Selected Junior High Schools from Throughout the United States
Even though programs for the talented have been expanding in this country for the last thirty years, the knowledge explosion currently being experienced in the United States suggests that even more must be done to fully develop the potential of the highly able student
Understanding High Altitude Cooking
At high altitudes, there is lower atmospheric pressure simply because there is less atmosphere above us. Picture a column of air above you
Pseudoscalar Conversion and X-rays from the Sun
We investigate the detection of a pseudoscalar that couples
electromagnetically via an interaction . In
particular, we focus on the conversion of pseudoscalars produced in the sun's
interior in the presence of the sun's external magnetic dipole field and
sunspot-related magnetic fields. We find that the sunspot approach is superior.
Measurements by the SXT on the Yohkoh satellite can measure the coupling
constant down to --, provided the
pseudoscalar mass eV, which makes it competitive with
other astrophysical approaches.Comment: 15 pages, RevTex file. Figures available upon request to

Temporal and Spatial Distribution of Finfish Bycatch in the U.S. Atlantic Bottom Longline Shark Fishery
Bycatch in U.S. fisheries has become an increasingly important issue to both fisheries managers and the public, owing to the wide range of marine resources that can be involved. From 2002 to 2006, the Commercial Shark Fishery Observer Program (CSFOP) and the Shark Bottom Longline Observer Program (SBLOP) collected data on catch and bycatch caught on randomly selected vessels of the U.S. Atlantic shark bottom longline fishery. Three subregions (eastern Gulf of Mexico, South Atlantic, Mid-Atlantic
Bight), five years (2002–06), four hook types (small, medium, large, and other), seven depth ranges (300 m), and eight broad taxonomic categories (e.g.
Selachimorpha, Batoidea, Serranidae, etc.) were used in the analyses. Results indicated that the majority of bycatch (number) was caught in the eastern Gulf of Mexico and that the Selachimorpha taxon category made up over 90% of the total bycatch. The factors year followed by depth were the
most common significant factors affecting bycatch

Use of thermal inertia determined by HCMM to predict nocturnal cold prone areas in Florida
Registered data sets were used to develop qualititative temperature and delta T maps of a band across north Florida and across south Florida for use with Carlson's boundary layer energy model balance model. Thermal inertia and moisture availability computations for north Florida are being used to investigate model sensitivity and to evaluate input parameters. Temperature differences of day-night HCMM overpasses clearly differentiate wetlands and uplands areas
White sorghum grain (Funk\u27s G766W) and elevator-run red sorghum grain compared for fattening cattle
An new white variety of sorghum grain (Funk\u27s G766W) has been reported to be higher in digestible dry matter and protein than elevator-run, rod sorghum grain. A 120-day field trial was conducted on the George and Vernon Miller farm near Great Bend to compare the two sorghum grain types under feed-lot conditions
The SIMPSONS project: An integrated Mars transportation system
In response to the Request for Proposal (RFP) for an integrated transportation system network for an advanced Martian base, Frontier Transportation Systems (FTS) presents the results of the SIMPSONS project (Systems Integration for Mars Planetary Surface Operations Networks). The following topics are included: the project background, vehicle design, future work, conclusions, management status, and cost breakdown. The project focuses solely on the surface-to-surface transportation at an advanced Martian base
Walking the Walk or Just Talk?: A Global Examination of Men’s Intentions to Take Violence Preventative Action
Given the increasing prominence of both bystander-based approaches to gender-based violence (GBV) prevention and of proactively engaging men and boys to join efforts to end GBV, understanding the factors that support men’s antiviolence bystander behavior is important. This study examined correlates of willingness to engage in violence preventative bystander behavior in a global sample of 299 adult men engaged in GBV prevention events or work. Participants came from over 50 countries and provided data via an online, anonymous survey available in English, Spanish, and French. Path analysis was used to model participants’ willingness to engage in a variety of violence-preventative behaviors in the future, with variable selection guided by the Theory of Planned Behavior (TPB) and by research implicating gender-related attitudes in bystander willingness and behavior. Findings suggest that bystander willingness was supported by past bystander behavior, self-efficacy to engage in bystander behavior, positive beliefs about the contributions of antiviolence involvement, and by an awareness of male privilege. Social network support for GBV prevention work, and support for gender equity were not significant correlates of bystander willingness in the full path model. These findings held across participants from the Global North and Global South, suggesting that self-efficacy, an awareness of male privilege, and positive attitudes toward antiviolence work are factors which may support men’s violence preventative actions across broad regional contexts. © 2018 Taylor & Franci
