  • Fusion-The-Energy-Of-The-Universe
    Fusion The Energy of the Universe WHAT IS THE COMPLEMENTARY SCIENCE SERIES? We hope you enjoy this book. If you would like to read other quality science books with a similar orientation see the order form and reproductions of the front and back covers of other books in the series at the end of this book. The Complementary Science Series is an introductory, interdisciplinary, and relatively inexpensive series of paperbacks for science enthusiasts. The series covers core subjects in chemistry, physics, and biological sciences but often from an interdisciplinary perspective. They are deliberately unburdened by excessive pedagogy, which is distracting to many readers, and avoid the often plodding treatment in many textbooks. These titles cover topics that are particularly appropriate for self-study although they are often used as complementary texts to supplement standard discussion in textbooks. Many are available as examination copies to professors teaching appropriate courses. The series was conceived to fill the gaps in the literature between conventional textbooks and monographs by providing real science at an accessible level, with minimal prerequisites so that students at all stages can have expert insight into important and foundational aspects of current scientific thinking. Many of these titles have strong interdisciplinary appeal and all have a place on the bookshelves of literate laypersons. Potentialauthorsareinvitedtocontactoureditorialoffice: [email protected]. Feedback on the titles is welcome. Titles in the Complementary Science Series are detailed at the end of these pages. A 15% discount is available (to owners of this edition) on other books in this series—see order form at the back of this book.

  • May 13, 2010 Commemoration Program and Press Coverage
    May 13, 1960 San Francisco City Hall Rotunda HOUSE UN-AMERICAN ACTIVITIES COMMITTEE HEARINGS Police Rout Students Students Rout HUAC A Commemoration of Black Friday May 13, 2010 Noon in the Rotunda The 1960 San Francisco Anti- HUAC Demonstrations 50th Anniversary Commemoration Fifty years ago, the House Un-American Activities Committee (HUAC) announced public hearings in San Francisco for May 12, 13, and 14, 1960. Students from Bay Area colleges and high schools joined members of the general public in a protest. On May 12th a rally was held at Union Square and protesters then marched to City Hall to picket the hearings. People who wanted to see the Committee in action were stunned to learn that HUAC had issued white passes to supporters in an effort to stack the audience. A vocal protest began under the City Hall rotunda and continued into the next day. On the afternoon of Friday, May 13th, San Francisco police turned high-pressure fire hoses on singing demonstrators who were seated on the floor of the rotunda. The protesters were washed down the marble staircase and 64 were arrested. The police, the Committee, and J. Edgar Hoover issued false accounts of the events. Representatives from the protesting group travelled the country to counter the propaganda with the truth. The protest and its aftermath helped to launch the activist sixties. The silent fifties were over. HUAC never left Washington again. It was abolished in 1975. The Program Irving Hall, Master of Ceremonies Becky Jenkins Marty Hittelman Burton White Marshall Krause Nancy Schimmel will sing Bobby Boy by Malvina Reynolds Bob Meisenbach and Evelyn Einstein Irving Hall Barbara Dane will sing and lead We Shall Not Be Moved The Speakers Irving Wesley Hall, Arrestee who debated Congressmen and William F.

In this thesis, we utilize knowledge bases to address three tasks involved in semantic search: (i) query understanding, (ii) entity retrieval, and (iii) entity summarization. Query understanding is the first step in virtually every semantic search sys- tem.

Semantic search is a broad area that encompasses a variety of tasks and has a core enabling data component, called the knowledge base. In this thesis, we utilize knowledge bases to address three tasks involved in semantic search: (i) query understanding, (ii) entity retrieval, and (iii) entity summarization. Query understanding is the first step in virtually every semantic search sys- tem. We study the problem of identifying entity mentions in queries and linking them to the corresponding entries in a knowledge base. We formulate this as the task of entity linking in queries, propose refinements to evaluation measures, and publish a test collection for training and evaluation purposes. We further establish a baseline method for this task through a reproducibility study, and introduce different methods with the aim to strike a balance between efficiency and effectiveness.
