In 'The Rise and Growth of American Politics' (1898), Henry Jones Ford provides a sweeping analysis of the US political system. Edwards focuses on Ford's understanding of the American presidency.
As developing the internet a variety of services emerge and service providers serve services such as using users' private information. Service providers require many types of information related ...users even including sensitive private information to serve a service with high quality, but users are reluctant to disclose their private information. Because if the private information is leaked it will lead to an invasion of privacy of users and may arise some problems about users' life. Nevertheless, service providers want to collect the users' information because of increasing their efficiency of services. As a result, it brings about a conflict of the loss and gain between users and service providers. Anonymity is one of the solutions. Anonymity can get rid of linkability between transaction and users' private information. Therefore, users can provide their private information without concerns about leaking it and service providers can collect many types of information and serve services with high quality. However, anonymity may be abused, and used to undermine the protection goal of accountability. Namely, a person who is assured anonymity may serve information which is not related him/her. It may be reduced the quality of services. Revocation of anonymity can make up for weak point of anonymity. But when anonymity is revoked legal dispute may be arisen and there is a cost of time or money. In this paper, we propose a scheme for accountable privacy using secret sharing and some cryptographic methods. The scheme we propose reduces a cost of revocation of anonymity because there is maybe no legal dispute and keeps anonymity more secure against collusion between service provider and revocation authority.

Poetry Meets Pedagogy Webb, Jen; Rosen, Michael
Pedagogy and Edusemiotics
Book Chapter
In 2011 Jen Webb met with Michael Rosen, the fifth Children’s Laureate for the UK, to interview him about his approach to poetry. Although the conversation remained focused on poetry, it constantly ...slid off into the domain of pedagogy. Perhaps this is not surprising.
In this chapter we examine the UP series of documentary films, a longitudinal examination of the lives of 14 British individuals. The first film, 7 UP!, depicted participants at age 7 and was ...produced in 1963. The most recent, 49 UP, was produced in 2005. We consider the value and the limitations of the series as a study of personality development and describe the trajectories of the lives of three participants in some detail.
Questionaires were distributed to members of the Japanese Society for Environmental Studies to survay the current status of preservation of environmental and biological specimens in Japan, to obtain ...basic information for the Environmental Time Capsule project. General information has been compiled through summarizing the questionairs. A detailed data base should be compiled by addtional research to utilize the information for selection of candidates to be stored in the ET Capsule.
In this chapter, I’m going to tell you about a random assortment of settings, hints, tips, and tricks that you can use to make your iPhoto experience even better. These include tips for using iPhoto ...in Full Screen mode, playing and editing videos in iPhoto, handling your iPhoto Library file, backing up your iPhoto Library, and more.
An environmental time capsule or ET Capsule which will retain samples and data for an ultralong period is covered in this report. The samples will serve as fundamental data for researchers in the ...distant future. For this purpose, actual samples will be ideal to be preserved together with written records describing living things on the earth and their environments. We plan to seal the actual ET Capsule at 00:00, January 1, 2001, hoping it will be a good opportunity to leave the environment of 20th century earth for people in later centuries. This report discusses various aspects and problems associated with long-term storage of environmental and biological samples and describes the related studies we have made.

Proposed in the paper is the Environmental Time Capsule. ET-Capsule in short, which is planned to contain specimens and information representing environmental and biological conditions of the Earth ...in the end of the twentieth century (A. D. 2, 000). and to conserve them till A. D. 3, 000 or A. D. 10, 000. The capsule will be deposited and kept underground in some monumental place or ice in the polar regions. First. the concept and the aim of the ET-Capsule are presented. Then. three distinguished existing (having berried) ordinary time capsules are compared with each other. Namely. Westinghouse Electric and Manufacturing Company berried two at the occasions of the New York World's Fairs (1938 and 1965). and Matsushita Electric and Mainichi Newspaper cooperatively followed at the Osaka World Exposition in 1970. These capsules are distinct from others. because they were made under as much scientific examinations as possible and their contents were carefully selected after extensive discussions. The experience is quite informative to design ET-Capsule.
Sixth-graders Derek Mott, Seliena Squires and Pam Glennon placed a sealed 60-pound time capsule in a 5-by-8-foot crawl space after a morning ceremony at Holland Elementary School. It was Hunt's idea ...to collect items dated from last April to this month and place them in the capsule, to be opened 50 years from now, in 2048. The time capsule, a plastic drum, was prepared by 40 enthusiastic sixth-graders. Hunt, a former selectman, town clerk and teacher, is a volunteer at the school. She has lived in Holland long enough to remember attending classes at the old Town Hall. She thought a time capsule would help build civic pride. Last year's fifth-graders were chosen to organize the project and select items to go in the capsule.
