FOR well over a generation, the public sphere of Islam has been an arena contest in which activists and militants brought forth challenges to traditional interpretative practices authority speak for Islam, especially articulate its social interests political agendas. Patrick Gaffney (1994) astutely noted that their claims draw on experience as alternatives both expertise textual hermeneutics associated with learned men (ulema) more illuminationist priorities exemplified Sufi generally...
After many years of fusion research, the conditions needed for a D–T reactor have been approached on Tokamak Fusion Test Reactor (TFTR) [Fusion Technol. 21, 1324 (1992)]. For first time unique phenomena present in plasma are now being studied laboratory plasma. The magnetic experiments to study plasmas using nearly equal concentrations deuterium and tritium carried out TFTR. At maximum power 10.7 MW, 39.5 MW neutral-beam heating, supershot discharge 6.7 high-βp following current rampdown....

Abstract How the Internet spawns community and gets its features into offline life is a recurring problem met in searches for “impacts” of successive iterations Middle East arises particularly assessing equivocal findings most recently about social media Arab Spring uprisings. But more methodological than ontological: it lies viewing through lens on communication as message-passing “influence” outcome to be identified. The current embodiment new users have richer – and, I argue, normal...
Ambivalent identifications are widely noted in ethnographic literature on the Middle East and often attributed to fragile, insecure institutions. Data from Afghanistan suggest that ambivalent sentiments articulate a sensibility of self' discourse which provides central critical commentary high seriousness on, rather than reflection experience its conventionalized forms more significant as deconstructions unmotivated indicators psychological or social states.
The deuterium-tritium (D-T) experimental program on the Tokamak Fusion Test Reactor (TFTR) is underway and routine tritium operations have been established. technology upgrades made to TFTR facility demonstrated be sufficient for supporting both maintenance an extended D-T campaign. To date fusion power has increased ∼9 MW several physics results of importance reactor regime obtained: electron temperature, ion plasma stored energy all increase substantially in relative D-D at same neutral...
Abstract The important connectives of information technology will come with institutions that successfully merge IT, transnationalism, and ‘civil’ society such each conveys its properties to the other. How conceptualize understand these is a compelling need for social theory. Comparative study Internet in Middle East, including supporting related technologies, points crucial role alliance-building coalitions create new institutions. Some less-evident ones are more transnational ‘civil,’...
