Between Surveillance and Sousveillance: Or, Why Campus Police Feel Vulnerable Precisely Because They Gain Power
Utilizing historical and ethnographic data, this article explicates a thesis that involves a paradox-campus police feel vulnerable as the "surveyed" precisely because they gain power as the "surveyor." Toward this end, first, I identify a dramatic change in the status and function of campus police from watchmen to law enforcement professionals in the 1960s-1970s as a key historical context in which this paradox emerged. Then, I ethnographically e…
Base Encounters: The US Armed Forces in South Korea, by Elisabeth Schober
Elisabeth Schober’s Base Encounters: The US Armed Forces in South Korea is a welcome addition to the growing field of an anthropology of militarism. The book carefully examines the formation and tr
Inter-annual variability of summertime CO 2 exchange in Northern Eurasia inferred from Gosat XCO 2
Northern Eurasia is one of the largest terrestrial carbon reservoirs on the Earth’s surface. However, since the coverage of surface CO _2 observations is still limited, the response to the climate variability remains uncertain. We estimated monthly CO _2 fluxes for three sub-regions in Northern Eurasia (north of ∼60°N), Northeastern Europe, Western Siberia and Eastern Siberia, using CO _2 retrievals from the Japanese Greenhouse Gases Observing SA…
Variations in discharge from the Qilian mountains, northwest China, and its effect on the agricultural communities of the Heihe basin, over the last two millennia
Over the last two millennia, agricultural land in the Hei river basin, northwest China, has been subjected to a series of significant droughts and flood events. These documented hydrological events were compared to estimates of fluvial and fluvioglacial discharge from the mountains. Areal extents of glaciers are important for validation as water mass remaining in mountain area, although glacier area occupied only about 1.5 % at present in this hi…
Coastal land loss and hypoxia: The ‘outwelling’ hypothesis revisited
It is generally believed that interannual variability in the areal extent of the Gulf of Mexico hypoxia is driven primarily by the magnitude of the Mississippi River freshwater and nutrient fluxes. It has recently been proposed that outwelling of carbon from deteriorating coastal wetlands into the surrounding Gulf of Mexico could be an important mechanism promoting the development of hypoxia. We used a coupled hydrology-hydrodynamics model of the…
Cocco's musical intervention in the US base problems: Traversing a realm of everyday cultural sensibilities in Okinawa
This essay intervenes in the political contradiction between the pro-base and anti-base positions in Okinawa while at the same time seeking to provide an alternative to the binary at the level of everyday cultural sensibilities. I will accomplish this task by exploring the activities of charismatic Okinawan musician-artist-activist Cocco. More specifically, locating Cocco's music within – and also outside – a long, complicated genealogy of Okinaw…
P2-338 Association of body mass index with risk of age-related cataracts in a middle-aged Japanese population
Introduction Many epidemiological studies have demonstrated that body mass index (BMI) is associated with the risk of developing age-related cataracts. These reports have suggested that high and low BMIs can affect the onset or progression of age-related visual impairment. However, few prospective studies have examined this relationship in a general Asian population. Therefore, in this study, we investigated whether BMI was associated with increa…
P2-277 Alcohol drinking and primary liver cancer in Japanese: A pooled analysis of four cohort studies
Introduction Because studies of the association between alcohol intake and the risk of primary liver cancer use varying cut-off points to classify alcohol intake, it is difficult to precisely quantify this association by meta-analysis of published data. Furthermore, there are limited data for women in prospective studies of the dose-specific relation of alcohol intake and the risk of primary liver cancer. Methods We analysed original data from fo…
P1-177 Development and evaluation of a forecasting model for infectious diseases in Japan using time-series analysis
Having forecasts for infectious diseases can help support risk management and effective intervention against the outbreak of disease. The main object of this study was to obtain a suitable way of making predictions of disease incidents through the use of time-series analysis
Okinawa and the U.S. Military: Identity Making in the Age of Globalization
"In 1995, an Okinawan schoolgirl was brutally raped by several U.S. servicemen. Using this event as a point of reference, Masamichi S. Inoue explores how Okinawans began to regard themselves less as a group of uniformly poor and oppressed people and more as a confident, diverse, middle-class citizenry embracing the ideals of democracy, human rights, and women's equality. As this identity of resistance has grown, however, the Japanese government h…
We Are Okinawans But of a Different Kind: New/Old Social Movements and the U.S. Military in Okinawa
Focusing on the socalled offshorebase dispute after the 1995 rape incident, this article examines the intricacies of Okinawan resistance in the context of the nationstate and the larger processes of global history. In so doing, it aims to advance the potentialities of the newsocialmovements literature (concerning everyday practices of culture, identity, and difference) by explicitly restoring old politicoeconomic questions (class structure and th…
Okinawa citizens, U.S. Bases, and the dugong
The rape of a 12-year-old Okinawan schoolgirl by three U.S. servicemen in September 1995 reignited long-simmering issues surrounding the fifty-year U.S. military domination of Okinawa. When Washington ended its post-World War II occupation of Japan in 1952, it retained the substance of Japanese military subordination in the form of a security treaty, U.S. bases on Japan's main islands, and continued U.S. sovereignty over Okinawa. It then set abou…
Detection of genes regulating beta-lactamase production in Enterococcus faecalis and Staphylococcus aureus
Four beta-lactamase-producing clinical isolates (WH245, WH257, CH570, and DEL) of Enterococcus faecalis were examined for the presence of the staphylococcal beta-lactamase regulatory genes (blaR1 and blaI) by PCR using six primer pairs. All isolates produced small amounts of beta-lactamase constitutively. In WH245, CH570, and DEL, the corresponding regions of the regulatory genes have lost sequences of various lengths. However, the regulatory gen…
