Spinning Charlotte\u27s Web: Resident Perceptions and Neutralizations of a Slaughterhouse Town

Meat production, consumption, and slaughterhouses significantly affect the environment, public health, and non-human animals. Those who live in communities that house slaughterhouses must negotiate what it means to live and work in this community, and be financially supported by the industry. Understanding how people negotiate the roles that the industry plays in their community through semi-structured interviews was the primary purpose of this study. To reconcile the issues the town faces, the respondents in this study used excuses and justifications, specifically techniques of neutralization, to account for both the company\u27s actions and the social issues the city itself faces

Exploring the Path That Has Led to a Fragmented Curriculum, Driven by High Stakes Testing, Sidelining Science

This paper explores the current state of science instruction in classrooms, particularly concerning the fragmented curriculum resulting from high-stakes testing and the subsequent side-lining of science education. The study examines the historical context, starting with the implementation of standardized tests such as MCAS (Massachusetts Comprehensive Assessment System) in 1998 and the subsequent impact of the No Child Left Behind Act in 2001. These reforms led to a punitive system for underachieving schools and a narrowing of instructional time for subjects other than math and English Language Arts (ELA). The focus on improving test scores resulted in limited time allocated for science instruction, with studies indicating that, on average, only 20 minutes per day is dedicated to science and social studies. The paper argues for a shift towards an integrated curriculum that nurtures the whole child and proposes integrating science and social studies content into ELA programs. By aligning units and themes, teachers can create opportunities for cross-disciplinary learning that enriches the ELA curriculum while supporting science education. The paper provides various models and examples to guide the implementation of curriculum integration, emphasizing the importance of hands-on science experiences and their contribution to reading skills and comprehension

Nonprofit Law: Ten Issues in Search of Resolution

The laws and regulations governing nonprofit organisations in different countries can usefully be assessed in terms of how they address ten basic issues, including everything from eligibility to key trends affecting the sector. The purpose of this paper is to examine these issues more closely, to identify what they are and to understand why they are important. The focus is placed upon the questions that must be addressed in laws related to nonprofit organisations

Mr. Ban-Tear Down The U.N\u27s Wall of Immunity/Impunity (before A National Court Does)!!

Immunity has been proven to be not only a living anachronism, but one which often leads to impunity for the worst kinds of rights violations

International Organization Reform Or Impunity? Immunity Is The Problem

\u27No one can read the significant Supreme Court cases on sovereign immunity... without concluding that the field is a mass of confusion; and if he ventures beyond that to attempt some reconciliation of the courts of appeals decisions, he will find confusion compounded. \u2

Non-Isothermal Mercury Pipe Flow Turbulent Characteristics

The turbulence structure of fully-developed mercury pipe flow, with and without heat transfer, was studied using hot-film anemometry at Reynolds number of approximately 50,000. Single sensors and slanted multiple sensors were used to obtain the radial distribution of axial fluctuating velocity and temperature quantities. Isothermal data were generally in good agreement with comparable air data indicating similar velocity structure. Temperature intensity data agreed with other data in liquid metals. Axial and radial turbulent heat flux results were somewhat inconclusive. Spectra and turbulence scales were developed providing a picture of the structure

DETECTION OF A t -COMPLEX ANTIGEN BY SECONDARY CELL-MEDIATED LYMPHOCYTOTOXICITY

Because of the inconsistency in published results concerning the serological detection of cell surface antigens coded for by the t -complex, a cell-mediated lymphocytotoxicity (CML) assay, secondary CML, was used in a search for t -antigens. By sensitizing C3H. Ttf (C3H. Brachyury, tufted) with the congenic strain C3H. Ttf/t w18 splenic cells, a response against lipopolysaccharide (LPS) stimulated splenic cells from C3H. Ttf/t w18 mice is obtained. The locus coding for the antigen detected by this reaction lies to the left of tf on the murine seventeenth chromosome. The secondary CML response to this antigen is H-2 restricted and detects an antigen on all t -haplotypes tested: t w18 , t w18 tf, t 12 , t 6 , t h2 tf, and t w5 .Peer Reviewedhttp://deepblue.lib.umich.edu/bitstream/2027.42/75626/1/j.1744-313X.1982.tb00789.x.pd
