  • Making Care Count: an Overview of the Women's Economic
    Making care count AN OVERVIEW OF THE WOMEN’S ECONOMIC EMPOWERMENT AND CARE INITIATIVE ABOUT THE COVER. Created by African artist Monica Obaga, this artwork represents a vision of a future where families share care work at home. It was first used for an online campaign during the celebration of the African Women’s Day in July 2020. Across the globe, unpaid care and domestic work (UCDW) sustains communities and economies, provides essential care for children, sick and elderly people and those living with disabilities, and keeps households clean and families fed. Without unpaid care, the global economy as we know it would grind to a halt. Yet this work falls disproportionately on women and girls, limiting their opportunities to participate in decent paid employment, education, leisure and political life. Heavy and unequal UCDW traps women and girls in cycles of poverty and stops them from being part of solutions. Making unpaid care more valued and more visible In low-income settings such as Zimbabwe and From ‘radical’ to mainstream: the Philippines, where essential public services the evolving discussion on unpaid care are inadequate and tasks such as collecting Conversations on UCDW have evolved over the water and firewood are particularly heavy and decades from the ‘domestic labour debate’ time-consuming, women do up to six times of the 1970s­­—then considered radical—to as much UCDW as men.1 When domestic tasks addressing care increasingly being seen require inordinately long hours, time for direct today as a precondition for women’s political, care of people is further constrained.2 economic and social empowerment.

  • Erformance Testing for Superpave and Structural Validation
    Performance Testing for Superpave and Structural Validation PUBLICATION NO. FHWA-HRT-11-045 NOVEMBER 2012 Research, Development, and Technology Turner-Fairbank Highway Research Center 6300 Georgetown Pike McLean, VA 22101-2296 FOREWORD This final report provides the comprehensive findings from two Transportation Pooled Fund (TPF) research projects, TPF-5(019): Full-Scale Accelerated Performance Testing for Superpave and Structural Validation and SPR-2(174): Accelerated Pavement Testing of Crumb Rubber Modified Asphalt Pavements. The research identified candidate purchase specification tests for asphalt binder that better discriminate expected fatigue cracking and rutting performance than current SUperior PERforming Asphalt PAVEment (Superpave®) tests. Full-scale accelerated pavement testing and laboratory characterization tests on mixtures and binders provided the basis for the recommendations. This report documents a historical review of the development of asphalt binder performance specifications, experimental design, test pavement construction and performance, statistical methodology to rank and identify the strongest candidates, and all pertinent laboratory characterization of binders and mixtures that supplemented the recommendations. The research also provided a detailed case study of pavement evaluation using falling weight deflectometer and objective means to evaluate two emerging technologies; the asphalt mixture performance tester and the Mechanistic-Empirical Pavement Design Guide.(1) This document will be of interest to highway personnel involved with Superpave®, materials selection, performance specifications, and pavement design and evaluation.

  • AMF / ALF SERIES Albedometer Mounting and Levelling Fixtures: Combine 2 Pyranometers Into 1 Albedometer with Our AMF03 and AMF02 Albedometer Kits
    Hukseflux Thermal Sensors ACCESSORY AMF / ALF SERIES Albedometer mounting and levelling fixtures: combine 2 pyranometers into 1 albedometer with our AMF03 and AMF02 albedometer kits Hukseflux offers a practical range of mounting and levelling fixtures to construct albedometers from its popular pyranometers and make installation and levelling easy. Albedometers are increasingly popular in bifacial PV module monitoring. AMF03 allows you to combine two SR30-M2-D1 spectrally flat Class A pyranometers or two SR15 series Class B pyranometers into one albedometer. AMF02 does so for two SR11 or two SR20 series pyranometers. The modular design facilitates maintenance and calibration of the pyranometers. Both albedometer kits include a mounting fixture and a glare screen. ALF01 is a levelling fixture that may be combined with AMF03, AMF02 or SRA series albedometers, and helps levelling the instrument. Hukseflux offers a full range of dedicated, ready- Introduction to-use albedometers for measuring albedo. Albedo, also called solar reflectance, is defined as Alternatively, with the AMF03 or AMF02 mounting the ratio of the reflected to the global radiation. fixture in AMF / ALF series, you may choose to The solar albedo depends on the directional construct albedometers from popular Hukseflux distribution of incoming radiation and on surface pyranometers yourself. AMF03, AMF02 and SRA properties at ground level. Albedos of typical series albedometers can be levelled with ALF01 surfaces range from about 4 % for fresh asphalt, levelling fixture. and 15 % for green grass to 90 % for fresh snow. An albedometer is an instrument composed of two pyranometers, the upfacing one measuring global solar radiation, the downfacing one measuring reflected solar radiation.

  • Muere Max Wright, El «Padre» Humano De ALF
    Muere Max Wright, el «padre» humano de ALF Max Wright, uno de los protagonistas de la popular serie de televisión de los años 80 ALF, falleció este miércoles. Familiares confirmaron que el actor, quien interpretó a Willy Tanner, el padre de la familia que acogió al peludo extraterrestre, murió en su casa en Hermosa Beach, a las afueras de Los Ángeles, California. Wright, que tenía 75 años, libró una batalla contra el cáncer durante muchos años. Al actor, nacido en Detroit (Michigan), le fue diagnosticado un linfoma en 1995, que permaneció en estado de remisión durante mucho tiempo. La esposa del artista, Linda Ybarrondo, con quien se había casado en 1965 y tenía dos hijos, falleció en 2017 a raíz de un cáncer de mama. Wright ya había sido noticia hace años por sus excesos. Drogándose sin parar, fue pillado por fotógrafos en un fumadero de crack e incluso se filtraron imágenes en las que mantenía sexo homosexual en una orgía mientras se consumían varias drogas. Además de actuar en cuatro temporadas de Alf, Wright participó en programas como Buffalo Bill, Cheers, Misfits of Science, Dudley y The Norm Show, recordó la publicación. El intérprete también hizo parte de películas como All That Jazz, Reds, The Sting II, Soul Man, The Shadow, entre otras. Con cuatro temporadas y 103 episodios emitidos entre 1986 y 1990, ALF giraba en torno a la llegada de un simpático extraterrestre a la vida de una familia ordinaria y fue un hito de la televisión estadounidense de los años 80. En agosto del año pasado, el portal especializado TVLine informó que la productora Warner Bros Television planteaba recuperar ALF.

  • Alf Arvidsson Vladimir Propp's Fairy Tale Morphology and Game Studies
    Computer games as fiction and social interaction A project sponsored by Vetenskapsrådet, 2003-2005 Institutionen för kultur och medier Umeå universitet Alf Arvidsson Vladimir Propp’s fairy tale morphology and game studies Working paper Vladimir Propp’s model of the structure of fairy tales has since its introduction to western scholarship during the 1950s, been regarded as one of the milestones in semiotic analysis and narratology, both for its inspiring function and taken for face value. It comes as no surprise that it also is suggested as a work of significance for game studies. I can agree on that; however, its meaning within the field of folklore studies and its range of appliability must be discussed. What is the content of Propp’s model? How has its basic ideas been further developed by later generations of folklorists? How can it be used? What claims can be based on it? What are its limits? My questions are trigged by the claims that sometimes are made for a universal applicability of Propp’s 31-function pattern. For instance, Arthur Asa Berger states in a recent introductory book, Video Games:A Popular Culture phenomenon, that “His thirty-one functions … are, it can be argued, at the heart of all narratives – not just the Russian folktales Propp analyzed in obtaining his list” (Berger 2002:34). I can agree with Berger that Propp’s model is worthy of attention in narrative studies. However, the claims of its universality go to far. It goes beyond the russian folktales, but halts somewhere after. The historical scientific context of Propp’s study is European folk tale studies, as they were in the 1920s with a history going back to the Grimm brothers showing the contemporary existence of an oral narrative genre with presumably ancient roots, within the popular classes.

  • Community Living and Participation for People with Intellectual and Developmental Disabilities: What the Research Tells Us
    Community Living and Participation for People with Intellectual and Developmental Disabilities: What the Research Tells Us To: Interested Parties From: The Association of University Centers on Disabilities (AUCD) and the American Association on Intellectual and Developmental Disabilities (AAIDD) Re: Community Living and Participation for People with Intellectual and Developmental Disabilities Date: July 24, 2015 Sunday, July 26th is the 25th Anniversary of the signing of the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA). As he signed the law on the south lawn of the White House, President George H. W. Bush, surrounded by people with disabilities and members of Congress, closed his remarks by stating, “Let the shameful wall of exclusion come tumbling down.” Despite great advances in physical access and technology that have made schools, workplaces, and neighborhoods more accessible, there continue to be barriers to equal opportunity, full participation, independent living, and economic self-sufficiency for all people with disabilities. AUCD supports and promotes a national network of university-based interdisciplinary programs to advance policies and practices that improve the health, education, social, and economic well-being of all people with developmental and other disabilities, their families, and their communities. AAIDD is a national organization that promotes progressive policies, sound research, effective practices, and universal human rights for people with intellectual and developmental disabilities. Established in 1876, AAIDD is the oldest and largest professional society in the US concerned with intellectual and developmental disabilities. On this 25th anniversary, we are releasing the attached paper, based on over 50 years of research, to describe how AUCD and AAIDD think the next 25 years of the ADA should translate into access, opportunity, and support for people with disabilities.
