The Ryan White CARE Act : 20 years of transition

The Ryan White CARE Act has undergone substantial changes in the past 20 years. Today it serves over 500,000 persons living with HIV/AIDS in the United States. The purpose of this project was to update the history and content Ryan White CARE Act and to consider how changes since the 2006 CARE Act reauthorization have affected the Ryan White Planning Council in Harris County. The results of the 2008 Houston Area HIV/AIDS Needs Assessment were reviewed and compared to responses to access of service questions of the 2005 Houston Area HIV/AIDS Needs Assessment. The results of the comparison show that informational barriers continue to be the leading barriers in persons living with HIV/AIDS to accessing services. In conclusion the strength of the Ryan White CARE Act is its ability to respond to a changing epidemic and its weakness lies in its vulnerability to shifting political sentiments. ^

MultiFarm: A benchmark for multilingual ontology matching

In this paper we present the MultiFarm dataset, which has been designed as a benchmark for multilingual ontology matching. The MultiFarm dataset is composed of a set of ontologies translated in different languages and the corresponding alignments between these ontologies. It is based on the OntoFarm dataset, which has been used successfully for several years in the Ontology Alignment Evaluation Initiative (OAEI). By translating the ontologies of the OntoFarm dataset into eight different languages – Chinese, Czech, Dutch, French, German, Portuguese, Russian, and Spanish – we created a comprehensive set of realistic test cases. Based on these test cases, it is possible to evaluate and compare the performance of matching approaches with a special focus on multilingualism.

Out of the ordinary : Anne Ryan and collage

Anne Ryan (1889-1954) was an active member of New York’s vibrant avant-garde art community during the tumultuous period marked by World War II. Ryan participated in the famed 1951 “Ninth Street Show,” and was an early member of Betty Parsons’s legendary stable of artists. She is not widely known today, however, and her influence is rarely acknowledged. Ryan is primarily known for her abstract collages—works that are frequently linked to Abstract Expressionism.
