Structural History of the Bald Mountain Mining District, Nevada, USA

release date: Jan 01, 2022
Structural History of the Bald Mountain Mining District, Nevada, USA
The Bald Mountain Mining district, like much of central Nevada, has experienced a complex deformation history. The mining district is considered here as a southern extension of the well-studied Carlin trend of gold deposits to the north. In order to gain a better understanding of how the Bald Mountain Mining District structural style relates to other structural models developed to the north in the Carlin trend, I completed a mapping and structural domain analysis in the district, with a focus on the North Mooney basin area where a high spatial concentration of Carlin-type gold deposits occur. The identification of structural domain boundaries and classes utilized a compiled database of historical mapping and structural measurements along with new mapping and cross section work. The domain analysis revealed four different classes of structural domains, of which monoclinal folds were determined to play the strongest role in gold mineralization. Using the structural domain designations in addition to an analysis of the geometry of commonly occurring structures, I identified five structural styles at Bald Mountain: 1) kilometerscale NNE- to NE-striking reverse faults and NNE- to NE-trending open to overturned folds; 2) kilometer-scale WNW- to NW-striking normal faults with oblique separation; 3) decameter- to kilometer-scale NNW-trending open folds, NNW-striking reverse faults, and N-striking thrusts; 4) meter- to decameter-scale NW-trending tight to close folds; 5) meter- to kilometer-scale N- to NE-striking normal faults. Evidence for structural reactivation and observations of the crosscutting relationships between the five structural styles inform a relative sequence of deformational events at Bald Mountain. These five structural styles were then considered with respect to regional tectonic events and their kinematic and timing relationships in order to assign deformational phases: 1) NNE- to NE-striking reverse faults and NNE- to NE-trending open to overturned folds associated with episodic ESE- to SE-directed shortening through the Paleozoic to early Mesozoic; 2) WNW- to NW-striking strike-slip and tear faulting in the Late Jurassic to Cretaceous; 3) NNW-trending open folds, NNW-striking reverse faults, and N-striking thrusts with ENE-directed shortening through the Late Cretaceous to Eocene; 4) NW-trending tight to close folds with sinistral tranpression on WNW- to NW-striking faults during a mid-Eocene event associated with exhumation of the Ruby Mountain core complex; 5) N- to NE-striking normal faulting with NWSE directed Basin and Range extension from the Miocene. The five structural styles were then compared to previous work including structural models developed in north-central Nevada. Deformation events are similar between the northern Carlin trend and Bald Mountain. Primary differences between the Bald Mountain structural history and the structural models in the northern Carlin trend include the documented Eocene folding event, and a major WNW-striking basement-seated feature with parallel structures that have a significant strike-slip component and partition Bald Mountain into discrete kilometer scale structural domains. Further work to add value to targeting and exploration should place an emphasis on identifying major WNW- to NW-striking faults and understanding their kinematics. Knowledge of these structural boundaries along with how structural styles change across them will help to constrain targeting and lend insight to the significant role that strike-slip faulting played in the Bald Mountain Mining District''s complex deformational history.

Male Sex Work in the Digital Age

release date: Mar 20, 2019
Male Sex Work in the Digital Age
This book explores the lives of male sex workers living in Dublin, Ireland. It focuses on the stories of young Brazilian and Venezuelan migrants who use their micro-celebrity on social media to construct a brand that can be converted into financial advantage within the sex industry. The book focuses on two sites: Grindr, which these men use to build a transient pop-up escort profile that is linked to Instagram, which in turn provides followers with access to a curated digital identity built around consumption. Ryan explores how the muscular body acts as a form of physical and erotic capital providing the raw material of these digital identities as they are broadcast on new online subscription platforms like OnlyFans. Male Sex Work in the Digital Age offers fascinating insights into the role social media plays in (re)creating a new and more flexible understanding of commercial sex. Students and scholars across a range of disciplines, including sociology, gender studies, sexuality studies, LGBTQ studies, media studies and law, will find this book of interest.

Upon hearing that the United States had entered the war, British Prime Minister Winston Churchill had said "we have won the war." Indeed, America''s machine of war began to rev up as they started to get involved in two theaters of war. The first theater was the European theater, where their involvement in fighting Germany was relatively minimal at best. The truth is, while many Americans like to look at Germany as being the main enemy of World War II, to America, the Japanese were more of the enemy than the Germans. While America gave significant support, military assistance and weapons to their allies who were fighting against the German front, the USA''s primary goal was to fight against the Japanese. Thus, sparked the greatest military campaign America had ever seen before, thus began the Pacific War.The purpose of this book is to give you an overview of the American campaign against Japan and to show how they were able to defeat the Japanese despite the fanatical strength of their opponents. First, we are going to look at the reason why the Japanese attacked America, how America responded, and look at the ultimate moment of victory for America, the dropping of the atomic bomb. If you''re someone who''s curious about learning about why Japan chose to wage war against us, how the war went down and what made America so strong against the Japanese, then read on!

The Way Forward
From the intellectual leader of the Republican party, an unvarnished look into the state of the conservative movement today and a clear plan for what needs to be done to save the American Idea. The Way Forward challenges conventional thinking, outlines his political vision for 2014 and beyond, and shows how essential conservatism is for the future of our nation. Beginning with a careful analysis of the 2012 election--including a look at the challenge the GOP had in reaching a majority of voters and the prevalence of identity politics--Ryan examines the state of the Republican party and dissects its challenges going forward. The Way Forward also offers a detailed critique of not only President Obama but of the progressive movement as a whole--its genesis, its underlying beliefs and philosophies, and how its policies are steering the country to certain ruin. Culminating in a plan for the future, The Way Forward argues that the Republican Party is and must remain a conservative party, emphasizing conservatism in a way that demonstrates how it can modernize and appeal to both our deepest concerns and highest ideals.

Studies on the Primary Mechanisms of (6-4) Photolyase

release date: Jan 01, 2014
Studies on the Primary Mechanisms of (6-4) Photolyase
We studied the light-induced reactions of the (6-4) photolyase, a flavoenzyme of the cryptochrome/photolyase family that repairs the UV-induced (6-4) photodamage in DNA with the aid of blue light. We studied this photorepair reaction as well as the light-induced cofactor reduction called photoactivation that the enzyme uses to bring itself to a repair-active state in the (6-4) photolyase from Xenopus laevis. We have studied the photoactivation of the FADox cofactor of the enzyme using femtosecond polarised transient absorption spectroscopy. We observed a sub-picosecond electron transfer (~400 fs) after excitation of the FADox cofactor. We were able to characterise a tryptophan residue as the electron donor. We sought to differentiate the spectroscopically identical but differently oriented tryptophan residues within the protein''s photoactivation site by transient anisotropy measurements. Our results suggest that the photoactivation mechanism is not fully compatible with the mechanism thought to be conserved among photolyases: an electron transfer mechanism via electron hopping along a chain of three highly conserved tryptophan residues.Using series of single turnover flashes, we have found that the repair reaction proceeds by a successive two-photon mechanism. The first photon converts the (6-4) lesion into a metastable intermediate X, the lifetime of which is ~2 min. Absorption of a second photon within the lifetime of X results to the restoration of intact nucleobases. In light of our findings, the reaction was also studied by femtosecond transient absorption spectroscopy.

Mentoring Relationships in Angling Education

release date: Jan 01, 2012
Mentoring Relationships in Angling Education
There has been a steady decline in angling participation numbers in the United States during the past two decades (MN DNR, 2011). A main contributing factor is the decreased participation by youth, and adults between the age of 20 and 40. These young adults represent a large portion of the parent population of today''s youth, and the simultaneous decrease in participation between young adults and youth may indicate that today''s youth do not have adults taking them fishing (MN DNR, 2011). This is of concern because of the parallel decline in people committed to conservation of natural resources. State agencies have begun to implement mentoring education programs to address this decline in participation amongst youth, but have not yet sought to identify what experts in the field of angling education believe are important components of a mentoring program (MN DNR, 2008).

Paul Ryan
In einem Gespräch mit Ayreen Anastas und Rene Gabri, Agenten der dOCUMENTA (13), gibt der in New York lebende Videokünstler Paul Ryan Auskunft über die theoretischen wie biografischen Hintergründe seiner Arbeit, über seine prägende Tätigkeit für Marshall McLuhan sowie über seine Rolle innerhalb der Videogruppe Raindance und der von ihr herausgegebenen Zeitschrift Radical Software. Die verschiedenen Einflüsse weckten in ihm den Wunsch, seine künstlerische Tätigkeit mit einer revolutionären sozialen Praxis zu verbinden, innerhalb derer das Konzept des »Threeing« eine zentrale Stellung einnimmt. Dabei handelt es sich um eine »freiwillige Beziehungs-Praxis beziehungsweise -Übung, bei der drei Personen abwechselnd drei verschiedene Rollen übernehmen«, die auf den von Charles Sanders Peirce eingeführten phänomenologischen Kategorien der Erstheit, Zweitheit und Drittheit beruht. Das Gespräch wird ergänzt von einem ausführlichen Anhang mit illustrierten Texten zum »Threeing« sowie dem ebenfalls von Ryan entwickelten Beziehungskreislauf. Sprache: Deutsch/Englisch

Young Guns
America urgently needs a new direction. But who will provide it? The time has come to move the country forward with a clear agenda based on common sense for the common good. THERE IS A BETTER WAY. Make no mistake: Congressmen Eric Cantor, Paul Ryan, and Kevin McCarthy are proud Republicans. But they believe the party had lost sight of the ideals it believes in, like economic freedom, limited government, the sanctity of life, and putting families first. This isn’t your grandfather’s Republican party. These Young Guns of the House GOP—Cantor (the leader), Ryan (the thinker), and McCarthy (the strategist)—are ready to take their belief in the principles that have made America great and translate it into solutions that will make the future even better, solutions that will create private sector jobs, maximize individual freedom, and establish a better world for our children. This groundbreaking book is a call to action that sets forth a plan for growth, opportunity, and commitment that will propel this country to prosperity once again. Together, the Young Guns are changing the face of the Republican party and giving us a new road map back to the American dream.

The Three Person Solution

release date: Jan 01, 2009
The Three Person Solution
The Three Person Solution resolves problems with human interaction by formalizing three person relationships. Two against one dynamics disappear. Double binds dissolve. A collaborative relational practice becomes possible for many people. Two person relationships benefit indirectly. Our tendency is to view any three person interaction in classic dramatic terms, but the structure of this relational practice, called Threeing, is not a narrative structure. The Three do not interact dramatically following a story line to an ending. Rather, the Three interact recursively, following a circuit that balances relationships. To partake in the process of Threeing, narrative expectations must be abandoned. The practice of Threeing can keep relationships healthy and thriving in family settings, intercultural situations, educational programs, collaborative research, collaborative art making, peace making, governance, management, online groups, worker training and environmental initiatives. This book includes an explanation of the theory of Threeing based on the cybernetics of Gregory Bateson and the philosophy of Charles Peirce, examples of Threeing in education and worker training, and detailed instructions for using the Three Person Solution.

Value War

Value War
In Value War: Public Opinion and the Politics of Gay Rights, Paul R. Brewer looks at how the public debate about gay rights has shaped public opinion and conversely how public opinion has shaped the public debate about gay rights. Using a variety of methods, including polls, experimentation, and content analysis, he shows how the nature of public debate_which encompasses news stories, television sitcoms, presidential speeches, and sermons by local clergy_has influenced what and how Americans think about gay rights. He also shows how public opinion has created opportunities and obstacles for foes and advocates of gay rights by defining the very terms and boundaries of the public debate. Brewer''s analysis not only sheds new light on how the politics of gay rights has evolved in recent years and may evolve in the future, it also illuminates the broader tensions in American politics, from the culture war over social issues to the struggle over civil rights.
