Description

Aim: To determine if concentrations of NO2 and PM are significant to the health of the study receptors (runners, cyclers). Objectives and methods: -Determine the major sources of NO2, PM10, PM2.5, in the study areas. -Carry out a screening assessment for road traffic sources using the Design Manual for Roads and Bridges (DMRB) model to assess potential exceedances at all relevant locations. -Compare the DMRB model results and monitoring data; if there is an agreement between the results, then the model may be sufficient to determine the area of exceedance of the objective. * I want to start with the Introduction first, if the work is satisfactory I will do the other dissertation chapters here. *I’ll provide the excel sheet for the screening model where you only input the distance between the vehicles in the road and the receptors on the pavement using google earth. background levels of the pollutants which you will also input in the model, as well as links to traffic flow data, emission factors and NOX to NO2 caculator are all available in the excel as weblinks. These data are publicly available and can be found in DEFRA website and other governmental sites

Chapter eleven assignment: gender content analysis Having watched the video in which Dr. Jean Kilbourne analyzed mainstream advertising’s portrayal of males and females you are now going to do your own content analysis of gendered media images, focusing on both advertising and program content. To that end, please do the following: Watch fifteen minutes of a cartoon (one geared toward children), including the commercials. NOTE: Sponge Bob, Rug Rats, Dora the Explorer, etc., are acceptable. The Simpsons and Family Guy are not for children. Watch fifteen minutes of a soap opera or evening drama, including commercials. Watch fifteen minutes of a sporting event, including commercials. You are to do a content analysis, analyzing media output with an eye toward the gendered messages. Specifically address the following questions: To what extent are the men and women playing traditional gender roles? For example, males being portrayed as aggressive, dominant, strong, and goal-oriented while females are portrayed as being passive, nurturing, emotional, and other-oriented. To what extent are they being portrayed in non-traditional ways? For example, women as dominant and strong, men as passive and nurturing. When men and women interact on screen who is more likely to define the situation? In other words, who has more power? If someone needs to be saved or rescued, is it more likely to be the male or female? Who is more likely to do the saving? Overall, what is the message that is being conveyed to females? Males? Try to take the role of the other and view these images from the perspective of a twelve or thirteen-year old female. What might be the impact on your sense of self as well as your level of self-esteem? Be specific. You should identify and describe the patterns you see emerging, USING SPECIFIC EXAMPLES. Also, you should identify and describe cases (i.e. specific examples) that go against the larger patterns. For example, it will likely be that the overall pattern portrays men as being dominant and aggressive, but you may find individual cases that do not match the pattern: some men may be portrayed as emotionally nurturing. Deal with both the larger pattern and the contradictions. Include an introductory paragraph as well as a concluding paragraph in which you tie things together and make some summary statements. This should be 2-3 pages in length and doubled spaced. Spelling, grammar, and punctuation count.
