We are pleased to present this issue to the community, and are proud of the excellent academic writing it contains. Hohonu, which means “deep” or “profound” in Hawaiian, has certainly lived up to its name in this edition. This issue contains a wide array of thought provoking papers, ranging from English 100 papers, to 600 level Master’s research. Topics for this issue range from Hawaiian Sovereignty, to ancient art, and even go as far as trying to piece together the underlying structure of the Universe! It has been a real delight to work on this issue. Special thanks go to Luke Bailey, our dedicated faculty advisor, who encouraged us all. Also, we would like to thank Hazel Butler, our webpage manager, and Katie Lambert, our business manager for doing much of the behind the scenes work that made this issue possible. Special thanks as well to our secretary, Tara Anderson, who made sure we all knew what was going on! A huge pat on the back goes to our staff editors, for all of their hard work putting the finishing touches on these already excellent papers.

  • The Musical Number and the Sitcom
    ECHO: a music-centered journal www.echo.ucla.edu Volume 5 Issue 1 (Spring 2003) It May Look Like a Living Room…: The Musical Number and the Sitcom By Robin Stilwell Georgetown University 1. They are images firmly established in the common television consciousness of most Americans: Lucy and Ethel stuffing chocolates in their mouths and clothing as they fall hopelessly behind at a confectionary conveyor belt, a sunburned Lucy trying to model a tweed suit, Lucy getting soused on Vitameatavegemin on live television—classic slapstick moments. But what was I Love Lucy about? It was about Lucy trying to “get in the show,” meaning her husband’s nightclub act in the first instance, and, in a pinch, anything else even remotely resembling show business. In The Dick Van Dyke Show, Rob Petrie is also in show business, and though his wife, Laura, shows no real desire to “get in the show,” Mary Tyler Moore is given ample opportunity to display her not-insignificant talent for singing and dancing—as are the other cast members—usually in the Petries’ living room. The idealized family home is transformed into, or rather revealed to be, a space of display and performance. 2. These shows, two of the most enduring situation comedies (“sitcoms”) in American television history, feature musical numbers in many episodes. The musical number in television situation comedy is a perhaps surprisingly prevalent phenomenon. In her introduction to genre studies, Jane Feuer uses the example of Indians in Westerns as the sort of surface element that might belong to a genre, even though not every example of the genre might exhibit that element: not every Western has Indians, but Indians are still paradigmatic of the genre (Feuer, “Genre Study” 139).

  • Family Ties and Political Participation*
    Family Ties and Political Participation∗ Alberto Alesina and Paola Giuliano Harvard University, Igier Bocconi and UCLA April 2009 Abstract We establish an inverse relationship between family ties, generalized trust and political participation. The more individuals rely on the family as a provider of services, insurance, transfer of resources, the lower is civic engagement and political participation. The latter, together with trust, are part of what is known as social capital, therefore in this paper we contribute to the investigation of the origin and evolution of social capital over time. We establish these results using within country evidence and looking at the behavior of immigrants from various countries in 32 different destination places. ∗Prepared for the JEEA lecture, American Economic Assocition meeting, January 2008. We thank Dorian Carloni and Giampaolo Lecce for excellent research assistanship. 1 1Introduction Well functioning democracies need citizens’ participation in politics. Political participation is a broader concept than simply voting in elections and it includes a host of activities like volunteering as an unpaid campaign worker, debating politics with others and attending political meetings like campaign appearances of candidates, joining political groups, participating in boycott activities, strikes or demonstrations, writing letters to representatives and so on.1 What deter- mines it? The purpose of this paper is to investigate an hypothesis put forward by Banfield (1958) in his study of a Southern Italian village. He defines "amoral familism" as a social equilibrium in which people trust (and care about) ex- clusively their immediate family, expect everybody else to behave in that way and therefore (rationally) do not trust non family members and do not expect to be trusted outside the family2 .

    Earth's atmospheric layers Earth's atmospheric layers Lesson plan (Polish) Lesson plan (English) Earth's atmospheric layers Source: licencja: CC 0, [online], dostępny w internecie: www.pixabay.pl. Link to the lesson Before you start you should know what the place of the atmosphere is in relation to the lithosphere, hydrosphere, biosphere and pedosphere; that the Earth's atmosphere is the part of the Earth and moves with it. You will learn explain the term „atmosphere”; name gases that form the air and their percentage share; name permanent and variable components of atmospheric air; name the layers of the atmosphere; discuss the role of the ozone layer; characterize the effects of the ozone hole and the greenhouse effect. Nagranie dostępne na portalu epodreczniki.pl nagranie abstraktu What layers is the atmosphere built of? In the Earth's atmosphere we distinguish 5 main layers characterized by specific features and 4 intermediate layers called pauses. The boundaries between them are conventional and change depending on the geographical latitude, terrain and season of the year. The closest one to the surface of the earth is the troposphere. Its thickness ranges from 7 km (in winter) to 10 km (in summer) above the poles, and 15‐18 km above the equator. The main feature that allows determining the boundary of the troposphere is the drop in the air temperature with an increase of about 0,6°C per 100 m. In the upper layer of the troposphere, the temperature reaches -55°C (above arctic regions) to -70°C (above equatorial regions). Above this layer there is a thin tropopause with the constant temperature, and above it there is the stratosphere extending up to a height of about 50 km, in which the air temperature rises to reach 0°C.

Moreover, the genomic organization of U1 snRNA was analyzed using as reference the Oreochromis niloticus genome. The results indicated a high conservation of one chromosomal cluster of U1 snRNA in the African and Asian species with some level of variation mostly in the South American species. The genomic analysis of U1 revealed a distinct scenario of that observed under the cytogenetic mapping. It was observed just an enrichment of U1 gene in the linkage group (LG) 14, that do not correspond to the same chromosome that harbors the U1 cluster identified under the cytogenetic mapping.

    RESEARCH FOR THE MANAGEMENT OF THE FISHERIES ON LAKE GCP/RAF/271/FIN-TD/Ol(En) TANGANYIKA GCP/RAF/271/FIN-TD/01 (En) January 1992 TOWARDS A REGIONAL INFORMATION BASE FOR LAKE TANGANYIKA RESEARCH by J. Eric Reynolds FINNISH INTERNATIONAL DEVELOPMENT AGENCY FOOD AND AGRICULTURE ORGANIZATION OF THE UNITED NATIONS Bujumbura, January 1992 The conclusions and recommendations given in this and other reports in the Research for the Management of the Fisheries on Lake Tanganyika Project series are those considered appropriate at the time of preparation. They may be modified in the light of further knowledge gained at subsequent stages of the Project. The designations employed and the presentation of material in this publication do not imply the expression of any opinion on the part of FAO or FINNIDA concerning the legal status of any country, territory, city or area, or concerning the determination of its frontiers or boundaries. PREFACE The Research for the Management of the Fisheries on Lake Tanganyika project (Tanganyika Research) became fully operational in January 1992. It is executed by the Food and Agriculture organization of the United Nations (FAO) and funded by the Finnish International Development Agency (FINNIDA). This project aims at the determination of the biological basis for fish production on Lake Tanganyika, in order to permit the formulation of a coherent lake-wide fisheries management policy for the four riparian States (Burundi, Tanzania, Zaïre and Zambia). Particular attention will be also given to the reinforcement of the skills and physical facilities of the fisheries research units in all four beneficiary countries as well as to the buildup of effective coordination mechanisms to ensure full collaboration between the Governments concerned.
