An improved procedure for holding round pink shrimp (Pandalus jordani) post-catchToledo-Flores, Luis Javier 08 September 1982 (has links)
Chilling (2-4°C) (10 min) in a solution containing 10% condensed
phosphate, 5% potassium sorbate, and 0.9% citric acid (pH 6.7)
stabilized round shrimp to microbial spoilage. This treatment procedure
allowed refrigerated storage of round shrimp eliminating the
need for ice and the accompanying deteriorative effects of water
absorption and protein solids loss mediated by melting ice. The
antimicrobial action of the treatment extended the time for the initiation
of exponential growth by three days and the time to reach
1x10⁶ APC/g by 4.5 days over shrimp held in ice. Condensed phosphate
in the treatment under optimum pH conditions retarded drip loss from
the round shrimp during storage and protected the shrimp musculature
from moisture and protein solids loss through steam (101°C; 100 sec)
cooking. The hand peeled yield of cooked meat from shrimp held in
ice of 29.8 to 32.3% (5.36-7.87% dry wt) was improved to 36.0 to
38.7% (8.16-8.99% dry wt) by the treatment system over a 15 day storage period. Treatment of shrimp held in ice with condensed
phosphate just prior to cooking improved hand peeled cooked meat
yield to 34.2 to 38.0%, but meat yield dry weight decreased during
storage from 8.32 to 5.90%. The yield of cooked meat from shrimp
held in ice was maintained by the increased recovery of meat water
absorbed by raw shrimp during storage. Meat yield from stabilized
shrimp was retained more by maintenance of dry matter yield with
little addition to the moisture fraction of yield. Cooked meat
composition was maintained very close to that observed for very
freshly caught shrimp (<1 day old). / Graduation date: 1983

Home preservation practices and knowledge of Alberta homemakersWhitmore, Aileen Perdue 06 August 1979 (has links)
The rationale for this study lies in the upsurge of home food
preservation which has occurred as a result of the unprecedented rise
in food prices and, concommitantly, the danger and economic loss
entailed in the use of faulty methods. A sample of 200 non-urban
homemakers in the province of Alberta who do food preservation were
examined on their practices and knowledge with regard to canning,
drying, making sauerkraut, pickling, smoking and root cellar storage.
The demographic characteristics of the sample population were
delineated as to age, education, income, and size of family still
living at home. These general demographic differences were not
reflected in the food preservation methods used, in general.
Cookbooks, some of which may have been government bulletins, were
the most important source of information followed by family and district
home economists.
Unsafe practices followed by these homemakers were the use by
12% of the open kettle method for processing foods other than jams and
jellies and the use by 76% of the boiling water bath rather than pressure
processing for the low acid foods. These unsafe practices were
made more serious by incorrectly evaluating the safety of food and
the inability of the respondents to relate acidity classification of
the food with its safety.
The recommendation is made that canning publications provide the
rationale for approved methods. More effective communication methods
to reach homemakers are needed. / Graduation date: 1980

Preserving the Past for the Present: Courthouse Preservation and Community Values in Thomas County, GeorgiaBoyer, Lori 18 May 2007 (has links)
The Thomas County Courthouse is 148 years old and is need of renovation. Special legal regulations require security upgrades, and doing so would compromise the architectural integrity of both the interior and exterior of the courthouse. The citizens of Thomas County have chosen to build a multipurpose judicial building to relieve the pressures and needs for security and space while renovating the historic courthouse to serve as a depository of its historical document. Within the context of preservation, the Thomas County Courthouse serves as an example of how a community can preserve the architecture of the building and keep this public building functioning and relevant to both the commercial district it borders and to the community it serves, and maintain its use as a public building which serves all and excludes none.

"From Green Refugee Shacks to Cozy Homes of Their Own": San Francisco's Earthquake Refugee Cottages as Vernacular ArchitectureUrban, Arianna 27 October 2016 (has links)
The 1906 earthquake and fire in San Francisco devastated the city and left 200,000 people homeless. To house the displaced population, small cottages were built in camps in the city’s parks. With the closure of the camps after one year, refugees were permitted to move their cottages and establish them as permanent homes elsewhere in the city, providing many with the opportunity for first time home ownership. Remarkably, some authenticated cottages have persisted through the decades in the urban landscape. A survey revealed 45 cottage sites; all have been greatly altered over their 110-year lifespans. These modifications make the relief cottages outstanding examples of vernacular architecture--an originally blank building that was moved and adapted according to the needs of its occupants. As such, the cottages reflect manifestations of significance and integrity that necessitate careful, creative evaluation to fit within the framework of modern historic preservation in the United States.

Utilitas and venustas: balancing utility and authenticity in the stewardship of our built heritageReich, Alene Wilmoth 25 April 2007 (has links)
This thesis examines the past, present, and potential future of the practice of
Heritage Conservation. Beginning with ancient Roman Architect, Vitruvius, this study
establishes a vocabulary for the ideals of preservation practice. Utilitas and venustas, as
two of the defining features of good architecture, are also key features to consider in the
stewardship of a historic building in active use. The data set used in this evaluation
comes from a symposium given in November 2004 by the Association for Preservation
Technology International (APT), the United States General Services Administration
(GSA), and the United States National Park Service (NPS). Historical background is
presented to give a context for the symposium, which includes foundations, policy, and
practice in the United States. The Venice Charter, National Historic Preservation Act,
NPS, and GSA have been chosen for the Literature Review to provide this background.
With utilitas and venustas as additional criteria for evaluation, the symposium case
studies were mined for examples of practice that could be used to make suggestions for
the future. Based on these examples and the possibilities for improving practice, this
study concludes that the United States should draft a new document outlining an updated philosophy and policy for preservation. Future research would serve to develop
refinements of existing frameworks and to create a new standard for "best practice".

Digital Cultural Heritage: Concepts, Projects, and Emerging Constructions of HeritageDalbello, Marija January 2009 (has links)
This paper examines a heritage practice by which memory institutions extend their role as repositories to becoming participants in a broader discourse about heritage with the consuming public. This practice is considered by focusing on two periodsâ the first wave of digital library development, and a most recent trend characterized by engagement of online audiences through social networking platforms.
