This study has also determined that there exists a relationship between these differing gender representations and concurrent changes in the gender norms of films created for the primary target audience the United States with secondary international audiences. This determination was aided by a detailed examination of the gender norms in multiple genres including science fiction, action, horror, and hybrid mixtures of these three.

    EARTH’S IMPACT HISTORY THROUGH GEOCHRONOLOGY Featured Story · From the Desk of Lori Glaze · News from Space · Meeting Highlights · Spotlight on Education · In Memoriam · Milestones · New and Noteworthy · Calendar LUNAR AND PLANETARY INFORMATION BULLETIN April 2019 Issue 156 Issue 156 2 of 97 April 2019 Featured Story Earth’s Impact History Through Geochronology Unlike the pockmarked Moon, whose surface has been shaped by impacts large and small for more than 4 billion years, planet Earth has retained a few relics of that cosmic bombardment. Tectonic activity that recycles crust along active plate margins, erosion, and the burial of impact craters underneath layers of sediment and lava have either removed or concealed the majority of the Earth’s cosmic scars. Only 199 impact structures (counting fields of small impact craters produced during the same event as one) and 40 individual horizons of proximal and distal impact ejecta (again, counting layers with the same age at different localities as one) have thus far been recognized on our planet (Fig. 1). Those impact structures and deposits span a time from more than ~3.4 billion years (Ga) before present (Archean impact spherule layers in South Africa and Western Australia) to roughly 6 years ago (the Chelyabinsk airburst in Russia on February 15, 2013, which shattered windows and whose main stony meteorite mass produced a 8-meter-wide circular hole in the frozen Lake Chebarkul; see Issue 133). Although impact rates have dramatically decreased since the early portion of solar system history, we see that meteorite impacts are still an ongoing geologic process and remain a constant threat (Fig.

  • Hailing Frequencies August 2015
    Hailing Frequencies August 2015 CENTER SEAT Greetings from the bridge. Congratulations on making it through the summer heat of August! For many of us it has been a rather brutal summer. As we enter September I have ordered the environmental controls set so there is just the briefest hint of fall in the air for the morning shift. We continue to perform well, this month, we held our crew briefing and enjoyed a movie “Tomorrow- land” as our fun activity. As cooler weather approaches our chapter usually began to travel at a higher warp we have several large scale activities on the horizon. Dragon Con, several meetings and fun activities, such as planning for Star Treks Fifty Year event, building our float for the annual Christmas parade, our annual gift wrap for charity at Barnes and Noble and the Food Drive in conjunction with the opening of the new Star Wars Movie. There are also new opportunities that I will cover under Regional news. You are a great crew and it is a privilege to represent you Carnell Fleet level news: Our Fleet Level project (The Trimble Project: to have the chapters submit question to John and Bjo about their role in saving the series and their work with the show and fandom) has exceeded its deadline with very few chap- ters responding. This was a great project and it is not over yet. We did run into problems getting this project out of space dock at the very start. STARFLEET was slowed down tremendously by injuries to our Commander, also the main source of communicating to the fleet the Communique had fallen behind.

  • Department of the Interior U.S. Geological Survey
    DEPARTMENT OF THE INTERIOR U.S. GEOLOGICAL SURVEY United States Earthquakes, 1936-1940 By Coast and Geodetic Survey Open-File report 84-936 Prepared in cooperation with National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration, This report has not been reviewed for conformity with U.S. Geological Survey editorial standards. 1984 Preface The serial publication United States Earthquakes was initiated in 1928, 3 years after the Coast and Geodetic Survey was given authority by Congress to make earthquake investigations and reports. The present volume is a reprint of those earthquake reports published from 1936 through 1940 by the Coast and Geodetic Survey. There has been no attempt to correct or revise the material contained in the present volume. However, some additions and corrections to previous issues are listed in reports for the following years: 1936, p. 44; 1937, p. 54; 1938, pp. 57-58; 1939, p. 55; and 1940, p. 54. At the present time, issues for the years 1941 through 1945 are out of print. Because the earthquake reports contained in these issues are essential to the com­ plete seismic history of this country, a limited number of copies will be made available in the future under the title, United States Earthquakes, 1941-1945. Copies of the annual United States Earthquakes series for the years 1946-1966 are available from the National Earthquake Information Center, Coast and Geodetic Survey, Rockville, Md. 20852. Those desiring copies of the reprint United States Earthquakes, 1928-1935, may obtain them by writing the Superintendent of Documents, Government Printing Office, Washington, D.C 20402.

USA. E-mail: [email protected] ABSTRACT. The series of films Alien (1979 ), Aliens (1986), Alien (1992), and Alien Resurrection (1997), and the 1999 movie The Matrix illustrate the present state of technological advances in reproductive areas, and posit the anxiety such advances represents. In all these filmic texts, two main aspects are raised: the displacement of the female body as the site of motherhood, and the possibility that human reproduction might no longer need males and females to make it viable. In addition, the films suggest that technology is surely taking over many aspects of reproduction. Key words: motherhood, film, cyber space, robots, reproduction, cyborgs. RESUMO .
