Use of the two colors is based on very old associations and also some fairly new ones, they said. To the pagans in northern Europe, plants that had the ability to remain green throughout winter acquired a mystical significance, said Una Cadegan, an assistant professor of history at UD.

Shoppers In Miami Valley Region Should See Prices Drop As Season Progresses, University Of Dayton

News Releases

Merchandise shoppers in the Miami Valley region should reap the benefits of price wars between now and Christmas, says Irene Dickey, a retail marketing specialist at the University of Dayton. Nationally, the retail scene is fairly stable, she says, but locally intense competition coupled with an overstocked inventory — especially cold-weather goods — will force retailers to lower prices. "Up until Thanksgiving, it was business as usual," Dickey says. "Now we're getting into warfare. There will be deeper price cuts in the next four weeks. … It's great for consumers."

Optical-Fiber Preamplifiers For Ladar Detection And Associated Measurements For Improving The Signal-To-Noise Ratio, Michael S. Salisbury, Paul F. Mcmanamon, Bradley D. Duncan

Electro-Optics and Photonics Faculty Publications

In an effort to increase achievable postdetection signal-tonoise ratios (SNRs) of continuous-wave, 1-gm all-solid-state ladar systems, a prototype rare-earth-doped optical-fiber amplifier has been included in the optical return signal path of both a heterodyne and a directdetection ladar system. We provide numerical predictions for SNR increases according to our previously developed theory. We also detail our experimental efforts and provide the results of SNR measurements for four distinct cases: direct ladar detection with and without a fiber amplifier, and heterodyne ladar detection with and without a fiber amplifier. Experimentally measured increases in SNRs for ladar systems incorporating an optical-fiber amplifier …
