Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Observations on the Effects of the Corn Laws" is a pamphlet published by Thomas R. Malthus, Professor of Political Economy, regarding the policy guiding the rise and fall in the price of corn referred to as the "Corn Law." At the end of the Napoleonic Wars Parliament passed legislation banning the importation of foreign corn into Britain until domestic corn cost 80 shillings per quarter. The high price caused the cost of food to increase and caused distress among the working classes in the towns. It led to serious rioting in London and to the Peterloo Massacre in Manchester in 1819. In this pamphlet, printed during the parliamentary discussion, Malthus tentatively supported the free-traders. He argued that given the increasing cost of growing British corn, advantages accrued from supplementing it from cheaper foreign sources.

This book was released on 1992 with total page 40 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The changing orientations of hydrometeors due to rapidly changing electric fields in clouds have been observed for the first time at a radar wavelength of 11 cm (S-band) with the polarimetric Doppler radar operated in Sudbury, MA by the Geophysics Directorate of Phillips Laboratory. During 1991 the radar was operated in a half-matrix mode, transmitting a signal of right circular polarization and receiving signals of right and left circular polarization. Observations of electrified storms on nine days during the spring and summer of 1991 revealed several occurrences of lightning that coincided with significant changes of the circular depolarization ratio (CDR), the cross-correlation, or the phase of the cross-covariance of the two received signals. We observed changes up to 2 dB in CDR, 50% in cross-correlation, and 40° in phase. However, many occurrences of lightning observed by radar were not accompanied by detectable changes of hydrometeor orientations, and we did not observe the cyclical changes of the polarimetric quantities that have been observed elsewhere with radars of shorter wavelength. We present examples of our observations and discuss implications for future measurements with this radar.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "The purpose of this investigation was to determine the effect that duration of observation has on one's ability to tell which of two random sequential events has occurred more frequently. Using a rate of four events per second and observation durations ranging from 1.75 to 80 seconds, two specific conditions were studied: (1) the effect of having a constant observation period repeated so that subjects could anticipate the duration of each observation, and (2) the effect of having a highly variable observation time such that the observer could not accurately anticipate when the time sample would end. Using 75 per cent correct identification of the more frequent event as a threshold measure, the results indicate, for both presentation conditions, that a smaller increment in frequency of one of the events over the other was needed as the observation duration increased. An asymptote was reached as the ratio between the more frequent and the less frequent event approached 1.20. With a constant observation time, the asymptote is reached between 10 and 20 seconds duration, while with a variable observation time, it is reached between 40 and 80 seconds."--Abstract
