For this collection, I decided to write about the only state I have ever called home. The outside perspective of California fascinates me�often times being characterized as a coastal paradise. While the thriving beaches are a major component of my sta . . .

The problem for the designer was to study and solve the design problems involved in the scenic and lighting elements for The Fantasticks. The solutions reached were to be formulated into a working hypothesis and tested through practical application. A . . .

We report results of a search for supersymmetry (SUSY) with gauge-mediated symmetry breaking in di-photon events collected by the DO experiment at the Fermilab Tevatron Collider in 2002-2006. In 1.1 fb(-1) of data, we find no significant excess beyond . . .

The distributions of transverse momentum and longitudinal momentum fraction of charged particles in jets are measured in Pb+Pb and pp collisions with the ATLAS detector at the LHC. The distributions are measured as a function of jet transverse momentu . . .

From an analysis of the flavor-tagged decay B-s(0)-> J/psi phi we obtain the width difference between the B-s(0) light and heavy mass eigenstates, Delta Gamma(s)=0.19 +/- 0.07(stat)(-0.01)(+0.02)(syst) ps(-1), and the CP-violating phase, phi(s)=-0.57( . . .

Many extensions of the Standard Model posit the existence of heavy particles with long lifetimes. This article presents the results of a search for events containing at least one long-lived particle that decays at a significant distance from its produ . . .

Some educators within the United States adhere to the idea that education is a process of acquiring certain bodies of knowledge which remain relatively constant. These proponents believe that bodies of knowledge have been thoroughly tested and have pr . . .

It was the purpose of this study to improve the Fresno State College industrial arts automotive laboratory hoisting equipment by (1) installing a used twin post hydraulic hoist and (2) design and construct a hydraulic transmission jack. The jack was t . . .

The DO Collaboration has measured the inclusive jet cross section in (p) over barp collisions at roots = 630 GeV. The results for pseudorapidities \ eta \ < 0.5 are combined with our previous results at roots = 1800 GeV to form a ratio of cross sectio . . .

We describe a search for Z boson pair production in p(p)overbar collisions at root s=1.96 TeV with the D0 detector at the Fermilab Tevatron Collider using a data sample corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 2.7 fb(-1). Using the final state dec . . .

We conceptualize objects based on sensorimotor information gleaned from real-world experience. To what extent is conceptual information structured according to higher-level linguistic features? We investigate whether classifiers, a grammatical categor . . .

We bathe them, we shave them, feed them, launder their clothes; we restore their shattered nerves with medicine and then set them loose, invigorated for a fresh debauch. 1886 remarks by an administrator referring to prisoners under his charge. It is h . . .

This Letter reports evidence of triple gauge boson production pp -> W(l nu)gamma gamma + X, which is accessible for the first time with the 8 TeV LHC data set. The fiducial cross section for this process is measured in a data sample corresponding to a . . .

Background: Myofascial decompression (MFD) is a component of traditional cupping therapy. In this technique practitioners position the cups according to objective findings of muscle tightness, along trigger points, or to address myofascial restriction . . .

The purpose of this study is to compare the various attitudes that are directed toward the welfare department by fathers in the Aid to Families with Dependent Children — Unemployed Parent Program.2 These fathers are dichotomized by the length of time . . .

Many studies have shown that English videos subtitled in English are more beneficial to ESL/EFL learners than English videos subtitled in the learners’ native language. However, no such studies have looked at native Arabic speakers, nor have any looke . . .

This paper presents a study of the performance of the muon reconstruction in the analysis of proton-proton collisions at root s = 7TeV at the LHC, recorded by the ATLAS detector in 2010. This performance is described in terms of reconstruction and iso . . .

The study sought to determine effects of leadership activity on emotional intelligence in preadolescents. Ninety-two Central California Valley sixth grade students in two schools and four classes were assessed on emotional intelligence. Treatment and . . .

This study examined the relationship between gender and reactions to stress among university students. University students were surveyed on how they typically responded when under perceived stress. There were significant differences between males and . . .
