Martin, Jim | Aerodynamic drag area of cyclists determined with field-based measures | Aerodynamic drag is an important factor in the performance of competitive track and road cyclists. Recently we used wind-tunnel testing to validate a practical measure of aerodynamic drag derived from a field test. We present here instructions for performing the field test on a straight flat road or... | | 2006-01-01 |

Mallat, Chibli | After Kosovo: Secession in the Middle East | A federal state is better than the division of the land. This is also true for Kosovo and the other countries in the Balkans, as it is for Sudan and Yemen. The ICJ Kosovo ruling is good for secessionists, bad for democrats, and devastating for order in the planet. | | 2010-09-02 |

Neimoyer, Susan | After the rhapsody: George Gershwin in the Spring of 1924 | The year 1924 was a banner period in the early career of the young George Gershwin. The astonishingly successful premiere of the Rhapsody in Blue with Paul Whiteman's orchestra in 12 February 1924, in some ways made it the year of the Rhapsody. Thanks to the business acumen that prompted Whiteman to... | | 2014-01-01 |

Gondolo, Paolo | AgapeZ1: a large amplification microlensing event or an odd variable star towards the inner bulge of M31 | AgapeZ1 is the brightest and the shortest duration microlensing candidate event found to date in the Agape experiment. It occurred only 4200 from the centre of M31 at RA = 0h42m41:47s and Dec = 41°16'39.1" (J2000). Our photometry shows that the half intensity duration of the event is 5.3 days and ... | AgapeZ1; Galaxy; Halo; Cosmology; Gravitational lensing; M31; Pixel method | 1999 |

Battin, Margaret P. | Age rationing and the just distribution of health care: is there a duty to die? | These lines express a view again stirring controversy: that the elderly who are irreversibly ill, whose lives can be continued only with substantial medical support, ought not to be given treatment; instead, their lives should be brought to an end. It should be recognized, as one contemporary politi... | | 1987 |

Wright, Scott D. | Age wave is here : the aging of the baby boomers November 2010 | Paul C. Light (1998) wrote one of the first books to examine the complexities of the baby boom generation and their future implications and impact. The book titled, "Baby Boomers", investigated what unified and what divided the generation and reflected on the potential for "golden days" (would it b... | | 2010-08 |

Battin, Margaret P. | Age-rationing and the just distribution of health care: Is there a duty to die? | The author analyzes the argument that a policy involving distributive justice in the allocation of scarce health care resources, based on the strategy of rational self interest maximation under a veil of ignorance (Rawls/Daniels), would result in an age rationing system of voluntary, socially encour... | Health care providers; Death; Euthanasia | 1987-01 |
