Abstract

The Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP), formerly called the Food Stamp Program, is designed primarily to increase the food purchasing power of eligible low-income households to help them buy a nutritionally adequate low-cost diet. This book describes the rules related to eligibility for SNAP benefits as well as the rules for benefits and their redemption. SNAP is administered by the U.S. Department of Agriculture's Food and Nutrition Service (USDA-FNS). A variety of benefits may also be available to unemployed workers to provide them with income support during a spell of unemploy

Abstract

The third edition of this comprehensive handbook emphasizes the relationship between the assembly methods, the materials, and the plastics manufacturing processes, thus enabling the reader to identify the best design/assembly method for a given application. The book has been completely updated and a new chapter on laser welding of plastics has been added. All principal fastening and joining methods used to assemble plastic parts today are described with their particular advantages and disadvantages. Assembly method limitations for a given material and/or a given molding process are discussed in great detail. This is very much a how-to book, offering a wealth of hard-to-find detailed information.

Abstract

The Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP), formerly known as food stamps, is one of the most controversial forms of social welfare in the United States. Although it's commonly believed that such federal programs have been cut back since the 1980s, Maggie Dickinson charts the dramatic expansion and reformulation of the food safety net in the twenty-first century. Today, receiving SNAP benefits is often tied to work requirements, which essentially subsidizes low-wage jobs. Excluded populations-such as the unemployed, informally employed workers, and undocumented immigrants-must rely on charity to survive.Feeding the Crisis tells the story of eight families as they navigate the terrain of an expanding network of assistance programs in which care and abandonment work hand in hand to make access to food uncertain for people on the social and economic margins. Amid calls at the federal level to expand work requirements for food assistance, Dickinson shows us how such ideas are bad policy that fail to adequately address hunger in America. Feeding the Crisis brings the voices of food-insecure families into national debates about welfare policy, offering fresh insights into how we can establish a right to food in the United States.

Abstract

These last years, the use of spaceborne remote sensing and unmanned aerial vehicles (UAV)&#13;has grown exponentially in agronomy. Their abilities are theoretically complementary in terms of&#13;temporal coverage and spatial resolution. Thiswork aims to compare both approaches at the scale&#13;of a winter wheat experimental parcel during a complete growing season using green fractional&#13;cover time-series (FCOVER) and combine them to improve crop growth characterization. UAV&#13;multibands images and Sentinel2 images are analyzed on the same time interval. Eventually, the&#13;influence of landscape elements on crop growth-related variables is studied. The methodological&#13;results of this study are the processes used to transpose FCOVER time-series into a reduced&#13;amount of crop growth parameters and quantify their uncertainties. These parameters allow predicting&#13;yield using the Aquacrop Model and finally summarizing this information on a set of&#13;maps. A comparison between yield predictions to a reference yield map based on field measurement&#13;shows that yield prediction using S2 (resp.UAV) FCOVER tends to underestimate (resp.&#13;overestimate), while data combination tends to be closer to reference values.UAV provides earlier&#13;and faster growth curves, reaching higher maxima. Growth process variables are compared to covariables&#13;describing topography, the presence of historical charcoal kilns, and the ploughing date.&#13;South facing half of the parcel experiences faster growth and higher yield; an earlier ploughing&#13;date and biochar patches emphasize this trend.

In 1963, President Kennedy proposed making permanent a small pilot project called the Food Stamp Program (FSP). By 2013, the program's fiftieth year, more than one in seven Americans received benefits at a cost of nearly
