Operator theoretic tools for working with these systems are developed, and lead to sufficient convex conditions for analysis and synthe... |
During Spanish colonization in the Americas, Catholic evangelizers often purposefully |
consecrated spaces that were already sacred to Indigenous Americans. In |
many regions, however, Indigenous deities, spirits, ancestors, and their devotees, |
rebelled. The Pueblo Revolt of 1680 killed and evicted Spaniards while claiming |
Christian constructions and objects for native usage. Yet the end result of this |
revolt was not just the re-consecration of sacred spaces to once again welcome |
Indigenous spirit beings. Rather, in its wake, the line between the pure and the |
contaminated cannot be neatly drawn; indeed, such sharp distinctions make |
little sense within Indigenous epistemologies wherein binary opposition is rarely |
found. Comparative materials from Mesoamerica and the Andes help complicate |
the commonplace narrative of conquest and resistance.Real-time experimental demonstration of optical OFDM symbol synchronization in directly modulated DFB laser-based 25km SMF IMDD systems. |

Abstract Engaging citizens in performance work can be difficult and resource-intensive and may yield few instrumental benefits. Some argue it is still beneficial for democratic purposes as it enables government to be more responsive to community preferences and needs. This paper argues there is an additional layer to u... |
Examining student work is not a new concept. Teachers have always spent a great deal of time grading student work and planning assignments for students. Historically, however, when teachers have looked at student work, they have generally done so alone rather than collectively (Little, Gearhart, Curry, & Kafka, 2003). ... |
The control of vasomotor tone by the rostral ventrolateral medulla oblongata is lost in brain death. Hypotension is not an obligate clinical sign in brain death criteria, because an adequate intravascular volume may temporarily overcome this decrease in blood pressure. However, such an unstable situation is bound to co... |
We identified patients from a database maintained by our organ procurement organization (LifeSource). Brain death was declared according to a hospital protocol in compliance with the American Academy of Neurology guidelines.6 The use of methylprednisolone and T4 infusions was standardized in 2005. We excluded patients ... |
