California’s Teaching Force 2010: Key Issues and Trends
This report covers four key themes: the contraction of the teacher workforce and other issues affecting the teacher supply pipeline, the weakening of the teacher development system in the context of reductions in funding, ongoing efforts to define and evaluate teacher quality, and the need for a fully developed, robust longitudinal statewide data system.

Fiber Tracking Functionally Distinct Components of the Internal Capsule
To examine the microstructural condition of this fiber system and to test functional correlates of its sectors in health and aging, adults were examined with diffusion tensor imaging fiber tracking and neuropsychological tests.

Diagnostic-Photographic Determination of Drag/Lift/Torque Coefficients of a High Speed Rigid Body in a Water Column
A semi-empirical method is developed in this study to determine the drag/lift and torque coefficients for a fast-moving rigid body in a water column.

A Comprehensive Rocket and Radar Study of Midlatitude Spread F
The new phase-sensitive ionosonde system operated at Wallops Island during the experiment confirms the long-standing hypothesis that this particular spread F event arises from multipath echoes distributed over a wide field of view in the bottomside F region.

H2B- and H3-Specific Histone Deacetylases Are Required for DNA Methylation in Neurospora Crassa
We created mutants of each of the four classical N. crassa HDAC genes and tested their effect on histone acetylation levels and DNA methylation.

Unbiased discourse segmentation evaluation
We show that the performance measures Pk and Window Diff, commonly used for discourse, topic, and story segmentation evaluation, are biased in favor of segmentations with fewer or adjacent segment boundaries.

Gravity Wave Activity in the Arctic Stratosphere and Mesosphere During the 2007-2008 and 2008-2009 Stratospheric Sudden Warming Events
We report Rayleigh lidar measurements of nightly temperature profiles in the 40–80 km altitude region and 30 min relative density profiles in the 40–50 km altitude region at Chatanika, Alaska (65°N, 147°W) in December, January, February, and March over two winters (2007–2008, 2008–2009).
