Framing the Faith-Based Initiative: Black Church Elites and the Black Policy Agenda
(2009)
The Faith-Based and Community Initiative represents a puzzle for black politics. In an academic realm where black faces in Congress are widely hailed as integral to black representation (e.g. Tate 2003), it behooves ...
SPIN-ORBIT COUPLING EFFECTS IN InSb QUANTUM WELL STRUCTURES
(2009)
Indium antimonide (InSb) is a narrow band gap material which has the smallest electron effective mass (0.014m0) and the largest electron Lande g-facture (-51) of all the III-V semiconductors. Spin-orbit effects of III-V ...
Lithostratigraphy and Fossil Avifaunas of the Pleistocene Fossil Lake Formation, Fossil Lake, Oregon, and the Oligocene Etadunna Formation, Lake Palankarinna, South Australia
(2009)
Lacustrine sediments of the Pleistocene Fossil Lake Formation of Oregon, and the Oligocene Etadunna Formation of South Australia record packages of upwardly fining sequences that are fossiliferous, including fossil birds. ...
Effects of State and Action Abstraction on Development of Controllers for Concurrent, Interfering, Non-Episodic Tasks
(2009)
The development of controllers for autonomous intelligent agents given a simple task is relatively straightforward and basic techniques can be used to develop such controllers. However, as agents are given more than one ...
Analysis of Spatial Uncertainty in LiDAR-derived Building Data and Uncertainty Propagation in Modeling of Urban Atmospheric Dispersion
(2009)
Results of environmental models (EMs) are often used to assist decision making. However, EM outcomes vary significantly with different input data, model parameters and model assumptions. Therefore, informed decision making ...
INTERFACE EQUILIBRATION PROCESSES AND THEIR EFFECTS ON WETTABILITY AND INTERFACIAL ENERGY
(2009)
Surface/interface equilibration and wettability modification of organic liquids are two important phenomena in many practical applications including subsurface remediation, detergency and food industry. Although ...

Reassessing Representative Bureaucracy: An Exploratory Analysis Using Role Perception
(2009)
Despite theoretical and empirical advances in the field of representative bureaucracy, scholars have yet to come to consensus on how to best define and measure the term. Many contemporary studies of representative bureaucracy ...
Fracture characterization, structural controls and simulation
(2009)
Fracture network patterns have been studied in two areas with different structural settings: (a) Dolomitic limestones on Teton anticline, in the frontal part of the fold thrust belt in the Sawtooth Range, Montana and (b) ...
