Based on our research, we have concluded that the Michigan Basin has excellent saline aquifer (residual entrapment) and CO2/Enhanced oil recovery related (CO2/EOR; buoyant entrapment) geological carbon sequestration potential with substantial, associated incremental oil production potential. These storage reservoirs possess at least satisfactory injectivity and reliable, permanent containment resulting from associated, thick, low permeability confining layers. Saline aquifer storage resource estimates in the two major residual entrapment, reservoir target zones (Lower Paleozoic Sandstone and Middle Paleozoic carbonate and sandstone reservoirs) are in excess of 70-80 Gmt (at an overall 10% storage efficiency factor; an approximately P50 probability range for all formations using DOE-NETL, 2010, storage resource estimation methodology). Incremental oil production resulting from successful implementation of CO2/EOR for the highest potential Middle Paleozoic reef reservoirs (Silurian, Northern Niagaran Reef trend) in Michigan is estimated at 130 to over 200 MMBO (22-33 Mm3). In addition, between 200 and 400 Mmt of CO2 could be sequestered in the course of successful deployment of CO2/EOR in the northern reef trend’s largest depleted (primary production) oil fields (those that have produced in excess of 500,000 BO; 80,000 m3of oil). • Effecting technology transfer to members of industry and governmental agencies by establishing an Internet Website at which all data, reports and results are accessible; publishing results in relevant journals; conducting technology transfer workshops as part of our role as the Michigan Center of the Petroleum Technology Transfer Council or any successor organization.</p>The Express-Star (Chickasha, Okla.), Ed. 1 Tuesday, January 28, 20142022-01-27T03:06:15-06:00https://gateway.okhistory.org/ark:/67531/metadc1890064/<p><a href="https://gateway.okhistory.org/ark:/67531/metadc1890064/"><img alt="The Express-Star (Chickasha, Okla.), Ed. 1 Tuesday, January 28, 2014" title="The Express-Star (Chickasha, Okla.), Ed. 1 Tuesday, January 28, 2014" src="https://gateway.okhistory.org/ark:/67531/metadc1890064/thumbnail/"/></a></p><p>Daily newspaper from Chickasha, Oklahoma that includes local, state, and national news along with advertising.</p>Faculty and Guest Artist Recital: 2014-01-28 - Kimberly Cole Luevano, clarinet2016-10-27T20:54:57-05:00https://digital.library.unt.edu/ark:/67531/metadc917074/<p><a href="https://digital.library.unt.edu/ark:/67531/metadc917074/"><img alt="Faculty and Guest Artist Recital: 2014-01-28 - Kimberly Cole Luevano, clarinet" title="Faculty and Guest Artist Recital: 2014-01-28 - Kimberly Cole Luevano, clarinet" src="https://digital.library.unt.edu/ark:/67531/metadc917074/thumbnail/"/></a></p><p>A faculty and guest artist recital performed at the UNT College of Music Voertman Hall.</p>33.210701 -97.150088Fatherhood Initiatives: Connecting Fathers to Their Children2016-03-19T13:57:26-05:00https://digital.library.unt.edu/ark:/67531/metadc806034/<p><a href="https://digital.library.unt.edu/ark:/67531/metadc806034/"><img alt="Fatherhood Initiatives: Connecting Fathers to Their Children" title="Fatherhood Initiatives: Connecting Fathers to Their Children" src="https://digital.library.unt.edu/ark:/67531/metadc806034/thumbnail/"/></a></p><p>This report briefly examines the role of the CSE agency in fatherhood programs and discusses initiatives to promote and support father-child interaction outside the parents relationship.</p>Final Report [The c-Abl signaling network in the radioadaptive response]2016-09-16T00:32:18-05:00https://digital.library.unt.edu/ark:/67531/metadc870812/<p><a href="https://digital.library.unt.edu/ark:/67531/metadc870812/"><img alt="Final Report [The c-Abl signaling network in the radioadaptive response]" title="Final Report [The c-Abl signaling network in the radioadaptive response]" src="https://digital.library.unt.edu/ark:/67531/metadc870812/thumbnail/"/></a></p><p>The radioadaptive response, or radiation hormesis, i.e. a low dose of radiation can protect cells and organisms from the effects of a subsequent higher dose, is a widely recognized phenomenon. Mechanisms underlying such radiation hormesis, however, remain largely unclear. Preliminary studies indicate an important role of c-Abl signaling in mediating the radioadaptive response. We propose to investigate how c-Abl regulates the crosstalk between p53 and NFκB in response to low doses irradiation. We found in our recent study that low dose IR induces a reciprocal p53 suppression and NFκB activation, which induces HIF-a and subsequently a metabolic reprogramming resulting in a transition from oxidative phosphorylation to glycolysis. Of importance is that this glycolytic switch is essential for the radioadaptive response. This low-dose radiationinduced HIF1α activation was in sharp contrast with the high-dose IR-induced p53 activation and HIF1α inhibition. HIF1α and p53 seem to play distinct roles in mediating the radiation dose-dependent metabolic response. The induction of HIF1α-mediated glycolysis is restricted to a low dose range of radiation, which may have important implications in assessing the level of radiation exposure and its potential health risk. Our results support a dose-dependent metabolic response to IR. When IR doses are below the threshold of causing detectable DNA damage (<0.2Gy) and thus little p53 activation, HIF1α is induced resulting in induction of glycolysis and increased radiation resistance. When the radiation dose reaches levels eliciting DNA damage, p53 is activated and diminishes the activity of HIF1α and glycolysis, leading to the induction of cell death. Our work challenges the LNT model of radiation exposure risk and provides a metabolic mechanism of radioadaptive response. The study supports a need for determining the p53 and HIF1α activity as a potential reliable biological readout of radiation exposure in humans.

This decrease was driven primarily by a decline of 1.6 million students eating school lunch who pay full price for meals, despite increases in students eating school lunch who receive free meals. State and local officials reported that the changes to lunch content and nutrition requirements, as well as other factors, influenced student participation. For example, almost all states reported through GAO's national survey that obtaining student acceptance of lunches that complied with the new requirements was challenging during school year 2012-2013, which likely affected participation in the program. Federal, state, and local officials reported that federally-required increases to lunch prices, which affected many districts, also likely influenced participation."</p>Servicemembers Civil Relief Act: Information on Mortgage Protections and Related Education Efforts2014-06-12T19:50:42-05:00https://digital.library.unt.edu/ark:/67531/metadc300259/<p><a href="https://digital.library.unt.edu/ark:/67531/metadc300259/"><img alt="Servicemembers Civil Relief Act: Information on Mortgage Protections and Related Education Efforts" title="Servicemembers Civil Relief Act: Information on Mortgage Protections and Related Education Efforts" src="https://digital.library.unt.edu/ark:/67531/metadc300259/thumbnail/"/></a></p><p>A letter report issued by the Government Accountability Office with an abstract that begins "The number of servicemembers with mortgages eligible for Servicemembers Civil Relief Act (SCRA) mortgage protections is unknown because servicers have not collected this information in a comprehensive manner. Based on the limited and nongeneralizeable information that GAO obtained from the three mortgage servicers and the credit union, a small percentage of the total loan portfolios were identified as eligible for SCRA protections. Two large servicers had loan-level data on delinquency rates. For those identified as SCRA-eligible, rates ranged from 16 to 20 percent and from 4 to 8 percent for their other military borrowers. Delinquencies at the credit union were under 1 percent. Some servicemembers appeared to have benefitted from the SCRA interest rate cap of 6 percent, but many eligible borrowers had apparently not taken advantage of this protection. For example, at one institution 82 percent of those who could benefit from the interest rate caps still had mortgage rates above 6 percent. The data also were insufficient to assess the impact of SCRA protections after servicemembers left active duty, although one institution's limited data indicated that military borrowers had a higher risk of delinquency in the first year after leaving active duty. But those with SCRA protections also were more likely to cure delinquencies during this period than the institution's other military borrowers. Given the many limitations to the data, these results should only be considered illustrative. Most of these institutions indicated that they made recent changes to better identify SCRA-eligible borrowers and improve the accuracy of the data."</p>Studies of the Internal Properties of Jets and Jet Substructure with the ATLAS Detector2016-09-16T00:32:18-05:00https://digital.library.unt.edu/ark:/67531/metadc870744/<p><a href="https://digital.library.unt.edu/ark:/67531/metadc870744/"><img alt="Studies of the Internal Properties of Jets and Jet Substructure with the ATLAS Detector" title="Studies of the Internal Properties of Jets and Jet Substructure with the ATLAS Detector" src="https://digital.library.unt.edu/ark:/67531/metadc870744/thumbnail/"/></a></p><p>None</p>Taylor Daily Press (Taylor, Tex.), Vol. 101, No. 20, Ed. 1 Tuesday, January 28, 20142016-07-13T13:33:33-05:00https://texashistory.unt.edu/ark:/67531/metapth759506/<p><a href="https://texashistory.unt.edu/ark:/67531/metapth759506/"><img alt="Taylor Daily Press (Taylor, Tex.), Vol. 101, No. 20, Ed. 1 Tuesday, January 28, 2014" title="Taylor Daily Press (Taylor, Tex.), Vol. 101, No. 20, Ed. 1 Tuesday, January 28, 2014" src="https://texashistory.unt.edu/ark:/67531/metapth759506/thumbnail/"/></a></p><p>Daily newspaper from Taylor, Texas that includes local, state, and national news along with advertising.</p>Trafficking in Persons in Latin America and the Caribbean2014-12-05T09:57:41-06:00https://digital.library.unt.edu/ark:/67531/metadc462829/<p><a href="https://digital.library.unt.edu/ark:/67531/metadc462829/"><img alt="Trafficking in Persons in Latin America and the Caribbean" title="Trafficking in Persons in Latin America and the Caribbean" src="https://digital.library.unt.edu/ark:/67531/metadc462829/thumbnail/"/></a></p><p>This report describes the nature and scope of the problem of trafficking in persons in Latin America and the Caribbean.

The National Defense Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 2002 requires the Secretary of the Army to submit annual progress reports to Congress on the implementation of the AWPS master plan until the Secretary certifies to Congress that AWPS is fully implemented. Although the Secretary has not yet made this certification, the Army has not been submitting progress reports. According to Army officials, the Army does not plan to submit progress reports until a revised master plan for AWPS is completed. However, for many years the Army has been unable to complete an update to the master plan due to a lack of oversight. Additionally, the Army has not validated AWPS as a manpower requirements determination tool. Army regulation states that the U.S. Army Manpower and Analysis Agency (USAMAA) is responsible for reviewing and validating manpower requirements models like AWPS and that major commands—such as the Army Materiel Command (AMC)—are responsible for submitting their models to USAMAA for validation. AMC directs the activities of Army industrial sites and is the primary user of AWPS. USAMAA and AMC officials have discussed the need for AWPS to be validated, but AWPS has not yet been submitted to USAMAA for validation. USAMAA officials initially contacted AMC regarding submitting AWPS for validation; however, at the time, AMC was not prepared to proceed. Later, when ready to seek validation, AWPS officials told GAO they asked for assistance from USAMAA, but additional assistance had not yet been provided. Because USAMAA officials involved in these earlier contacts subsequently left USAMAA, GAO was unable to corroborate that USAMAA did not respond to AWPS officials' request for assistance. Through USAMAA validation, the Army would have greater assurance that AWPS workforce management reports are accurate."</p>The Army's Ground Combat Vehicle (GCV) Program: Background and Issues for Congress2014-04-02T19:38:14-05:00https://digital.library.unt.edu/ark:/67531/metadc282278/<p><a href="https://digital.library.unt.edu/ark:/67531/metadc282278/"><img alt="The Army's Ground Combat Vehicle (GCV) Program: Background and Issues for Congress" title="The Army's Ground Combat Vehicle (GCV) Program: Background and Issues for Congress" src="https://digital.library.unt.edu/ark:/67531/metadc282278/thumbnail/"/></a></p><p>This report looks at the history and current need for a Ground Combat Vehicle (GCV) program.

Specifically, looking at broad economic indicators, airline pilots have experienced a low unemployment rate—the most direct measure of a labor shortage; however, both employment and earnings have decreased since 2000, suggesting that demand for these occupations has not outstripped supply. Looking forward, industry forecasts and the Bureau of Labor Statistics' employment projections suggest the need for pilots to be between roughly 1,900 and 4,500 pilots per year, on average, over the next decade, which is consistent with airlines' reported expectations for hiring over this period. Yet studies GAO reviewed examining whether the future supply of pilots will be sufficient to meet this need had varying conclusions. Two studies point to the large number of qualified pilots that exists, but who may be working abroad, in the military, or in another occupation, as evidence that there is adequate supply. However, whether these pilots choose to seek employment with U.S. airlines depends on the extent to which pilot job opportunities arise, and on the wages and benefits airlines offer. Another study concludes that future supply will be insufficient, absent any actions taken, largely resulting from accelerating costs of pilot education and training. Such costs deter individuals from pursuing a pilot career. Pilot schools that GAO interviewed reported fewer students entering their programs resulting from concerns over the high costs of education and low entry-level pay at regional airlines. As airlines have recently started hiring, nearly all of the regional airlines that GAO interviewed reported difficulties finding sufficient numbers of qualified entry-level first officers. However, mainline airlines, because they hire from the ranks of experienced pilots, have not reported similar concerns, although some mainline airlines expressed concerns that entry-level hiring problems could affect their regional airline partners' ability to provide service to some locations."</p>Aviation Workforce: Current and Future Availability of Aviation Engineering and Maintenance Professionals2014-06-12T19:50:42-05:00https://digital.library.unt.edu/ark:/67531/metadc301884/<p><a href="https://digital.library.unt.edu/ark:/67531/metadc301884/"><img alt="Aviation Workforce: Current and Future Availability of Aviation Engineering and Maintenance Professionals" title="Aviation Workforce: Current and Future Availability of Aviation Engineering and Maintenance Professionals" src="https://digital.library.unt.edu/ark:/67531/metadc301884/thumbnail/"/></a></p><p>A letter report issued by the Government Accountability Office with an abstract that begins "GAO analysis found mixed evidence about a current or possible future shortage of aviation professionals. Aerospace engineers have experienced a low unemployment rate—the most direct measure of a labor shortage—and increases in employment suggesting a shortage may exist; however, earnings for the occupation have stayed about the same. Data provide less support for a shortage of aircraft mechanics; while the occupation has had a low unemployment rate, both employment and earnings have stayed about the same, suggesting that demand for this occupation has not outstripped supply. GAO was unable to analyze information on avionics technicians because of insufficient data. In addition, the Bureau of Labor Statistics' employment projections indicate slower than average or no growth for these three occupations over the next 10 years. Data also suggest the number of people who have received training related to these aviation professions is increasing; however, several other industries compete for these individuals and not all will pursue aviation careers."</p>The Baytown Sun (Baytown, Tex.), Vol. 94, No. 43, Ed. 1 Friday, February 28, 20142016-05-11T23:30:29-05:00https://texashistory.unt.edu/ark:/67531/metapth744839/<p><a href="https://texashistory.unt.edu/ark:/67531/metapth744839/"><img alt="The Baytown Sun (Baytown, Tex.), Vol. 94, No. 43, Ed. 1 Friday, February 28, 2014" title="The Baytown Sun (Baytown, Tex.), Vol. 94, No. 43, Ed. 1 Friday, February 28, 2014" src="https://texashistory.unt.edu/ark:/67531/metapth744839/thumbnail/"/></a></p><p>Daily newspaper Baytown, Texas that includes local, state, and national news along with advertising.</p>The Baytown Sun (Baytown, Tex.), Vol. 94, No. 43, Ed. 1 Friday, February 28, 20142018-10-16T19:34:49-05:00https://texashistory.unt.edu/ark:/67531/metapth1065749/<p><a href="https://texashistory.unt.edu/ark:/67531/metapth1065749/"><img alt="The Baytown Sun (Baytown, Tex.), Vol. 94, No. 43, Ed. 1 Friday, February 28, 2014" title="The Baytown Sun (Baytown, Tex.), Vol. 94, No. 43, Ed. 1 Friday, February 28, 2014" src="https://texashistory.unt.edu/ark:/67531/metapth1065749/thumbnail/"/></a></p><p>Daily newspaper from Baytown, Texas that includes local, state, and national news along with advertising.</p>Brownwood Bulletin (Brownwood, Tex.), Vol. 114, No. 117, Ed. 1 Friday, February 28, 20142016-05-01T16:44:48-05:00https://texashistory.unt.edu/ark:/67531/metapth739867/<p><a href="https://texashistory.unt.edu/ark:/67531/metapth739867/"><img alt="Brownwood Bulletin (Brownwood, Tex.), Vol. 114, No. 117, Ed. 1 Friday, February 28, 2014" title="Brownwood Bulletin (Brownwood, Tex.), Vol. 114, No. 117, Ed. 1 Friday, February 28, 2014" src="https://texashistory.unt.edu/ark:/67531/metapth739867/thumbnail/"/></a></p><p>Weekly newspaper from Brownwood, Texas that includes local, state and national news along with advertising.</p>Cast Stone Formulation At Higher Sodium Concentrations2016-09-16T00:32:18-05:00https://digital.library.unt.edu/ark:/67531/metadc867418/<p><a href="https://digital.library.unt.edu/ark:/67531/metadc867418/"><img alt="Cast Stone Formulation At Higher Sodium Concentrations" title="Cast Stone Formulation At Higher Sodium Concentrations" src="https://digital.library.unt.edu/ark:/67531/metadc867418/thumbnail/"/></a></p><p>A low temperature waste form known as Cast Stone is being considered to provide supplemental Low Activity Waste (LAW) immobilization capacity for the Hanford site. Formulation of Cast Stone at high sodium concentrations is of interest since a significant reduction in the necessary volume of Cast Stone and subsequent disposal costs could be achieved if an acceptable waste form can be produced with a high sodium molarity salt solution combined with a high water to premix (or dry blend) ratio. The objectives of this study were to evaluate the factors involved with increasing the sodium concentration in Cast Stone, including production and performance properties and the retention and release of specific components of interest. Three factors were identified for the experimental matrix: the concentration of sodium in the simulated salt solution, the water to premix ratio, and the blast furnace slag portion of the premix. The salt solution simulants used in this study were formulated to represent the overall average waste composition. The cement, blast furnace slag, and fly ash were sourced from a supplier in the Hanford area in order to be representative. The test mixes were prepared in the laboratory and fresh properties were measured. Fresh density increased with increasing sodium molarity and with decreasing water to premix ratio, as expected given the individual densities of these components. Rheology measurements showed that all of the test mixes produced very fluid slurries. The fresh density and rheology data are of potential value in designing a future Cast Stone production facility. Standing water and density gradient testing showed that settling is not of particular concern for the high sodium compositions studied. Heat of hydration measurements may provide some insight into the reactions that occur within the test mixes, which may in turn be related to the properties and performance of the waste form. These measurements showed that increased sodium concentration in the salt solution reduced the time to peak heat flow, and reducing the amount of slag in the premix increased the time to peak heat flow. These observations may help to describe some of the cured properties of the samples, in particular the differences in compressive strength observed after 28 and 90 days of curing. Samples were cured for at least 28 days at ambient temperature in the laboratory prior to cured properties analyses. The low activity waste form for disposal at the Hanford Site is required to have a compressive strength of at least 500 psi. After 28 days of curing, several of the test mixes had mean compressive strengths that were below the 500 psi requirement. Higher sodium concentrations and higher water to premix ratios led to reduced compressive strength. Higher fly ash concentrations decreased the compressive strength after 28 days of curing. This may be explained in that the cementitious phases matured more quickly in the mixes with higher concentrations of slag, as evidenced by the data for the time to peak heat generation. All of the test mixes exhibited higher mean compressive strengths after 90 days of curing, with only one composition having a mean compressive strength of less than 500 psi. Leachability indices were determined for the test mixes for contaminants of interest. The leaching performance of the mixes evaluated in this study was not particularly sensitive to the factors used in the experimental design. This may be beneficial in demonstrating that the performance of the waste form is robust with respect to changes in the mix composition. The results of this study demonstrate the potential to achieve significantly higher waste loadings in Cast Stone and other low temperature, cementitious waste forms. Additional work is needed to elucidate the hydration mechanisms occurring in Cast Stone formulated with highly concentrated salt solutions since these reactions are responsible for determining the performance of the cured waste form. The thermal analyses completed in this study provide some preliminary insight, although the limited range of the factors in the test matrix hindered the identification of individual component effects. Future work should involve broader factor ranges to identify the roles played by each of the components in the mix via thermal analyses, analytical microscopy, and characterization of phase formation.</p>Center for Momentum Transport and Flow Organization in Plasmas and Magnetofluids (CMTFO)2016-09-16T00:32:18-05:00https://digital.library.unt.edu/ark:/67531/metadc866195/<p><a href="https://digital.library.unt.edu/ark:/67531/metadc866195/"><img alt="Center for Momentum Transport and Flow Organization in Plasmas and Magnetofluids (CMTFO)" title="Center for Momentum Transport and Flow Organization in Plasmas and Magnetofluids (CMTFO)" src="https://digital.library.unt.edu/ark:/67531/metadc866195/thumbnail/"/></a></p><p>The CMTFO funding partially supports a junior researcher and a graduate student at UCI. During this project, we have further developed the global gyrokinetic particle code GTC to study the momentum transport in tokamak driven by electrostatic ion temperature gradient (ITG) turbulence [1] with kinetic electrons and by collisionless trapped electron mode (CTEM) turbulence [2]. We have also upgraded GTC for fully electromagnetic simulation and for linear plasma configuration with verification and validation of the electron temperature gradient (ETG) turbulence in Columbia Linear Machine. The followings are the highlights on the physics results reported in the key publications of this project.</p>
