  • Building Cold War Warriors: Socialization of the Final Cold War Generation
    BUILDING COLD WAR WARRIORS: SOCIALIZATION OF THE FINAL COLD WAR GENERATION Steven Robert Bellavia A Dissertation Submitted to the Graduate College of Bowling Green State University in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY May 2018 Committee: Andrew M. Schocket, Advisor Karen B. Guzzo Graduate Faculty Representative Benjamin P. Greene Rebecca J. Mancuso © 2018 Steven Robert Bellavia All Rights Reserved iii ABSTRACT Andrew Schocket, Advisor This dissertation examines the experiences of the final Cold War generation. I define this cohort as a subset of Generation X born between 1965 and 1971. The primary focus of this dissertation is to study the ways this cohort interacted with the three messages found embedded within the Cold War us vs. them binary. These messages included an emphasis on American exceptionalism, a manufactured and heightened fear of World War III, as well as the othering of the Soviet Union and its people. I begin the dissertation in the 1970s, - during the period of détente- where I examine the cohort’s experiences in elementary school. There they learned who was important within the American mythos and the rituals associated with being an American. This is followed by an examination of 1976’s bicentennial celebration, which focuses on not only the planning for the celebration but also specific events designed to fulfill the two prime directives of the celebration. As the 1980s came around not only did the Cold War change but also the cohort entered high school. Within this stage of this cohorts education, where I focus on the textbooks used by the cohort and the ways these textbooks reinforced notions of patriotism and being an American citizen.

The report that partially purified preparations of the dnaG protein, a gene product essential to the replication of E. coli, synthesize RNA primers on phage G4 single-stranded DNA (Bouche, Zechel and Kornberg, 1975) stimulated an investigation into the properties of this enzyme. A thermolabile dnaG protein, prepared from a temperature-sensitive strain of E. coli, was utilized to demonstrate that the ability to prime DNA synthelsis on phage G4 and 0x174 single-stranded DNA resides with the dnaG protein, and that the priming event may be separated from subsequent DNA synthesis. Priming on G4 DNA absolutely requires the E. coli DNA binding protein.

  • Appendix a – Stream Sediments
    APPENDIX A – STREAM SEDIMENTS The following notes describe in greater detail some technical elements of the stream evaluation methodology used in Chapter 5. Stream Classification System Used To best realize the analytical objectives for the Auburn Ravine and Coon Creek watershed evaluation, an area-wide channel processes-based classification system is adopted which was originally designed to evaluate the channel segments of a watershed in the context of channel network system interaction, sediment routing, short-term and long-term channel segment adjustments to changes watershed conditions, and the role and response patterns of various bedforms in channel processes and sediment routing. The system applied here is a modification of a classification approach proposed by Montgomery and Buffington (1993, 1997, 1998). This system organizes bedforms in channel segments based fundamentally on their role in sediment routing and storage processes which provides a basis for categorizing stream segments. This system allows characteristics of channel segments to be related to hill slope and landscape evolutionary processes of the watershed, to be related by position in the watershed channel network with respect to sediment production, transport, storage, and disposition, and to be related to potential future channel conditions with changing future watershed conditions which drive channel forming stream flow and sediment regimes of channel segments. General Stream Systems The highest and most generalized hierarchical level reflects the commonalities and differences among the stream segment of the AR/CC watershed at the most generalized and regional or watershed scale. Stream system categories characterize general stream processes with respect to channel dynamics and channel/floodplain relationships for all stream orders in relatively large areas of the watershed and the channel network.
