This article considers the September 11 tragedy as an event that has created a powerful experience—an astonishing and unthinkable "breach" from the expected and routine—that has riveted the American public and provoked personal storytelling. September 11 and its aftermath have provided an occasion for rethinking and reworking cultural identity. We explore how September 11 and subsequent events have been experienced, constructed, and narrated by African American women, primarily from working-class and low-income backgrounds. These stories, and the commentaries and discussions that surround them, provide vehicles for these women to ponder what sort of social contexts they inhabit, within what sort of subject positions they are placed, and how these may be shifting in light of the attacks and America's "War on Terrorism.

The World Trade Center site allows anthropologists and educators to reflect on the relationship of public space to culture, and to consider the symbolic importance of this site for imagining the public culture of the future. Public spaces in the city have the potential of being places of learning and democratic practice, but the trend toward increased surveillance and policing of these spaces, exaggerated by September 11, makes this potential difficult to realize. Anthropologists and educators interested in the nexus of education, place, and culture should consider becoming involved in this imagining process and insert themselves into the ongoing debate in order to preserve spaces for learning and democracy. 相似文献

Public reactions to the terrorist acts of September 11 included a range of responses from shock, fear, and anger, to group profiling, acts of violent retribution, and dichotomous "us" and "them" thinking. The cycle of terrorism requires perspective and reflection so that educational anthropologists can act in ways that lead to more useful understandings of the phenomenon and tragedy of terrorism within society-at-large. 相似文献

This study uses an ecological perspective to explore the unique associations of maternal personal characteristics, parenting behaviors, and adolescents' own characteristics to posttraumatic distress and symptoms of arousal, avoidance, and intrusions, in 97 early adolescents and mothers from the Washington, DC, area to the events of September 11, 2001. Maternal characteristics and/or adolescents' perceptions of parenting behaviors were uniquely related to adolescents' responses, controlling for adolescents' own characteristics. Maternal responses and parenting behaviors play key roles in adolescents' continuing responses to the traumatic events of September 11. 相似文献

Times for indoor 200 m sprint races are notably worse than those for outdoor races. In addition, there is a considerable bias against competitors drawn in inside lanes (with smaller bend radii). Centripetal acceleration requirements increase average forces during sprinting around bends. These increased forces can be modulated by changes in duty factor (the proportion of stride the limb is in contact with the ground). If duty factor is increased to keep limb forces constant, and protraction time and distance travelled during stance are unchanging, bend-running speeds are reduced. Here, we use results from the 2004 Olympics and World Indoor Championships to show quantitatively that the decreased performances in indoor competition, and the bias by lane number, are consistent with this 'constant limb force' hypothesis. Even elite athletes appear constrained by limb forces. 相似文献

The squirrel monkey, a representative New World primate, has high plasma cortisol and aldosterone concentrations when compared to Old World primates. We measured adrenal mitochondrial 11-hydroxylase (11-OHase) activity in squirrel monkeys and in two representative Old World species (cynomolgus and rhesus macaques) in an effort to explain these elevated plasma glucocorticoid and mineralocorticoid levels. The activity of 11-OHase was 5-fold higher in the squirrel monkey than in the Old World species tested. Calculated 11-OHase Vmax was different in the squirrel monkey and the cynomolgus. However, the Km values were similar in the New World primate when compared to cynomolgus. The ability of metyrapone to block 11-OHase was less in the former than in the latter. The data are consistent with the hypothesis that the squirrel monkey adrenal cortex possesses an increased number of 11-hydroxylase enzyme units compared to that of Old World primate species, and is therefore more efficient in producing cortisol. This difference in 11-OHase activity in the squirrel monkey, in addition to other previously reported adrenal steroidogenic enzyme alterations, may be adaptive in nature, favoring increased cortisol and aldosterone production in this and possibly other New World primate species. 相似文献

The HUPO Brain Proteome Project (HUPO BPP) held its 12th workshop in Toronto on 26 September 2009 prior to the HUPO VIII World Congress. The principal aim of this project is to obtain a better understanding of neurodiseases and ageing, with the ultimate objective of discovering prognostic and diagnostic biomarkers, in addition to the development of novel diagnostic techniques and new medications. The attendees came together to discuss progress in the human clinical neuroproteomics and to define the needs and guidelines required for more advanced proteomic approaches. 相似文献

This article, based on a case-study of Washington, DC, presents an historical-structuralist perspective on the social, political and economic forces that underlie contemporary patterns of US metropolitan inequality. Section one explores the unique history of the DC black population- the largest US urban concentration of African Americans until World War I. Section two discusses the ascendance of Washington, DC, as the international capital of the post World War II era. This period features the rapid expansion of white suburbia together with the growth and increasing concentration of African Americans in the urban core. Section three examines Washington, DC, as an exemplar of the US post-industrial metropolis. These distinguishing characteristics include the emerging 'multicultural majority' of the central city, widening urban/suburban socioeconomic 'divide', and profound shift in immigrant settlement patterns (from city to suburbia). The findings suggest that Washington, DC, may offer instructive insights into the future of multicultural relations in post-industrial US society. 相似文献

Understanding the problem of pesticide misuse in the Third World requires analysis of both political- economic forces and local- level variations in peasant behavior and attitudes. This study, based on 12 months of fieldwork during 1988–1989, examines growing agrochemical dependence and misuse in St. Vincent and the Grenadines in the East Caribbean. Consistent with findings from other political-economic studies, this research documents the influence of the state, export agriculture, consumer pressure, and foreign aid in leading to increased chemical use in agriculture. This study also considers the extent to which farmer behavior and attitudes limit or exacerbate the problems that can accompany increased pesticide use. Some researchers emphasize that farmers are careless and indiscriminate when using pesticides, thereby contributing to pesticide-related problems. In contrast, data from the village level reveal that although some farmers are careless, others are cautious in their use of pesticides, a pattern reflective of variability among farmers in pesticide- use practices and attitudes in general. By exploring the issue of variability in patterns of pesticide use among villagers, this paper emphasizes the utility of the concepts of individuality and experimentation in agriculture in examining problems of pesticide misuse. 相似文献

Comparison of 87 distinct Mhc-DQB sequences, obtained from 13 primate species, demonstrates that five out of eight trans-species Mhc-DQB allele lineages are at least 30 million years old and predate divergence of hominoid and Old World primate species. One lineage may be much older because its members are not only traced back in higher primates, but also are present in a New World primate species. Comparing Mhc-DQB repertoire variation in distinct species, allows one to pinpoint when certain polymorphisms were lost or gained in primate evolution. Heterogeneity observed among members of trans-species Mhc-DQB allele lineages can be explained in major part by point mutations, whereas intraexonic crossing-over is a potent mechanism in generating new allele lineages. The stability of Mhc-DQB polymorphisms is influenced by selective forces because distinct allele lineages appear to have accumulated nucleotide substitutions and amino acid replacements at different rates. 相似文献

For a stable and reliable operation of the biofilm airlift suspension reactor (BAS reactor) means to control biomass concentration,
biofilm thickness and biofilm morphology are required. For this reason, the influence of applied detachment forces and surface
substrate loading on the formation of heterotrophic biofilms in laboratory-scale BAS reactors was studied. Detachment forces
were altered by variation of the initial bare carrier concentration or the superficial air velocity. In addition, the dynamics
of biofilm formation during start-up of a full scale BAS reactor (300 m3) was monitored and compared with the laboratory-scale start-up (3 l). This study shows that the biofilm morphology and strength
were influenced to a large extent by the surface substrate loading and applied detachment forces. A moderate surface substrate
loading and a high detachment force yielded smooth and strong biofilms. The combination of a high surface substrate loading
and low detachment forces did lead to rough biofilms, but did not lead to the expected high amount of biomass on the carrier,
apparently because of the formation of weaker biofilms. The strength of the bio-films appeared to be related to the detachment
forces applied during biofilm formation, in combination with the surface substrate loading. The biofilm morphology and biomass
on carrier in the BAS reactor can be controlled using the carrier concentration, substrate loading rate and the superficial
air velocity as parameters. The dynamics of biofilm formation during the start-up of a full-scale BAS reactor proved to be
similar to heterotrophic biofilm formation in laboratory-scale reactors. This indicates that a model system on the laboratory
scale can successfully be applied to predict dynamic phenomena in the full-scale reactor.
