Growth And Survival Of The Pacific White Shrimp, Litopenaeus Vannamei, In Sea Salt And Other Ionic Environments, Bisesi Hopkin Joseph
Growth And Survival Of The Pacific White Shrimp, Litopenaeus Vannamei, In Sea Salt And Other Ionic Environments, Bisesi Hopkin Joseph
All Theses
he Pacific white shrimp, Litopenaeus vannamei, is a euryhaline and eurythermal shrimp species. The robust nature of this species makes it a popular selection among shrimp aquaculturists. The high cost of coastal property as well as strict environmental regulations in developed countries has caused many shrimp farmers to move their operations further inland. Therefore, many inland farmers must bring in seawater, use brackish well water, or create their own environments using artificial sea salts. The purpose of this research was to determine if a sea salt mixture, ACS, composed of less expensive salts (NaCl, MgSO4, MgCl2, KCl, CaCl2 and NaHCO3), …
Characterization Of The Ibc Technologies Superlig¨ 620 Solid Phase Extraction Resin With Applications For Automated Process Monitoring, John Clements
Characterization Of The Ibc Technologies Superlig¨ 620 Solid Phase Extraction Resin With Applications For Automated Process Monitoring, John Clements
All Theses
Characterization of the IBC Advanced Technologies SuperLig¨ 620 solid phase extraction resin was performed in order to develop an automated strontium-90 process monitor. The main focus was on strontium separation from barium, with the goal of developing an automated separation process for strontium-90 in Hanford high-level tank wastes. High-level waste tanks contain significant cesium-137 activities, of which barium daughters are of great concern as interferences to strontium quantification. A number of complexants were studied in a series of batch distribution coefficient experiments, as SuperLig¨ 620 was not previously known to elute strontium in typical mineral acids. The optimal separation was …
The Novice Consultant And Electronic Mail: Strategies For And Implementation Of Politeness Techniques In Different Organizational Contexts, Nancy Annett
All Theses
This study examines the ways in which experienced and novice consultants in different organizational settings think about and use e-mail for communication to superiors. The methods by which novices in the workplace communicate via e-mail, especially to superiors, present a gap in the literature. Comparing novice and experienced employee e-mail behavior across organizational boundaries yielded several findings. First, employees seem to use particular decision criteria when formulating e-mail messages to managers, including considerations of the message's recipient and purpose. Novices seem most attuned to hierarchical levels and to the revision opportunities available through e-mail. Second, organizational context appears to affect …
An Analysis Of Print Media Coverage Of The Palestinian-Israeli Conflict During The Second Israeli Invasion Of Lebanon In 2006, Majdouline Aziz
An Analysis Of Print Media Coverage Of The Palestinian-Israeli Conflict During The Second Israeli Invasion Of Lebanon In 2006, Majdouline Aziz
All Theses
Through content analysis, the thesis examines how print media frame the Palestinian-Israeli conflict that assists in the expression of a pro-Israeli bias. More specifically it investigates the New York Times and the Associated Press coverage of the Palestinian and Israeli deaths reported during the second Israeli invasion of Lebanon in 2006 (July 12, 2006-September 8, 2006). The study found that both news sources expressed their pro-Israeli bias through legitimatizing and de-legitimizing Israeli and Palestinian killings. The New York Times generally justified Israeli killers and killings, condemned Palestinian killers and killings, and assigned more prominence to the Israeli side of the …
In Vitro Liquid Culture Systems Of Scutellaria Species, Ayse Tascan
In Vitro Liquid Culture Systems Of Scutellaria Species, Ayse Tascan
All Theses
In vitro culture of three Scutellaria species (S. lateriflora, S. costaricana and S. baicalensis) compared growth on different culture systems; agar and liquid cultures; stationary (LS), agitated (LA) and floating paper (FP). Fresh (FW), dry (DW), % dry weight (%DW=DW/FW), multiplication ratio (MR) and, sucrose, media and water use were compared. LA and LS plantlets were more hyperhydric, had more biomass, except S. baicalensis in LS, and less MR compared to agar and FP plantlets. A second experiment was conducted comparing liquid, agar and polyester fiber matrixes at different initial media volumes-30 mL and 20 mL. Plantlets from fiber had …
Breaking The Wedding Vows: Woman-Centered Critiques Of Marriage, 1963-1982, John Spiers
Breaking The Wedding Vows: Woman-Centered Critiques Of Marriage, 1963-1982, John Spiers
All Theses
This thesis explores woman-centered critiques of marriage during the period of second-wave feminism from 1963 to 1982. It explores the social and cultural, economic, sexual, and legal critiques of marriage that feminists posed and the messages about marriage that filtered down into a collection of popular magazines geared specifically to a female audience. It argues that feminists, operating through intersecting and diverging motives, interests, and agendas, posed numerous and wide-ranging critiques of marriage as a personal relationship and politicized institution. It asserts that while popular women's magazines were affected by the claims of feminists, these magazines generally remained conservative in …
Segmented Assimilation: The Effects Of Early Childhood Acculturation On Post-Secondary Educational Attainment, Christine Noelle Blackburn
Segmented Assimilation: The Effects Of Early Childhood Acculturation On Post-Secondary Educational Attainment, Christine Noelle Blackburn
All Theses
Utilizing the theory of segmented assimilation, this thesis examines the relationship between the type of acculturation experienced in early childhood and educational attainment. Data used in this study are from the Children of Immigrants Longitudinal Survey, waves I through III. The author hypothesizes that the markers of acculturation type serve as significant predictors on 1) the number of years of total education and 2) the likelihood of receiving a four-year degree by the time the respondents neared their mid-twenties (when CILS-III was conducted). Multiple regressions, linear and logistic, are used to examine these hypotheses. The findings show support of utilizing …
Influence Of Supramammary Lymph Node Extract On Cell Growth In Vitro, Danelle Duffy
Influence Of Supramammary Lymph Node Extract On Cell Growth In Vitro, Danelle Duffy
All Theses
ABSTRACT The bovine supramammary lymph node, located on the dorso-caudal surface of the udder, is a protein rich organ that is discarded on a regular basis during slaughter. Experiments were conducted to evaluate whether or not the lymph node extract could be used as a substitute for bovine growth serum in cell media. Two different preparations of lymph node extract were made and tested. Three different cell lines (MDA-MB-435, MAC-T, and 1C6) were used in assays to evaluate the lymph node extract as a supplement. The first extract yielded a protein concentration of 3.0 mg/ml (heat inactivated) and the second …
The Proliferative Response Of Equine Chondrocytes To Bovine Lymph Node Proteins In Vitro , Alison Reed
The Proliferative Response Of Equine Chondrocytes To Bovine Lymph Node Proteins In Vitro , Alison Reed
All Theses
Osteoarthritis is a leading cause of chronic lameness in horses. Many treatment options for osteoarthritis have limited effectiveness and are expensive. Treatments that stimulate cartilage development may promote cartilage healing. Bovine supramammary lymph nodes are available at no cost and contain bioactive growth factors that could promote cartilage healing. The purpose of this study was to measure the proliferative response of equine chondrocytes to bovine lymph node proteins. Chondrocytes were harvested from adult horses. Lymph node extract (LNE) was prepared by mixing freeze-dried lymph node powder with PBS. Experiments compared BGS and LNE on equal and unequal protein bases. Additional …
Inevitable Forces: Deciphering The Environment, Jennifer Stoneking-Stewart
Inevitable Forces: Deciphering The Environment, Jennifer Stoneking-Stewart
All Theses
My work is a response to my surroundings, the relationship between man and nature, and my perception of human impact on the environment. I compare the sprawl of cities that overtake the surrounding countryside to the spreading of microscopic bacteria and disease. My observation of the destruction of the environment and other uncontrollable events that perpetuate fear, such as passage of time, death, and growth, is visualized through the combination of two opposing forces: structure (controlled) and organic (uncontrolled). My use of printmaking processes parallels these concepts of control or lack of control. Lithography, intaglio, silkscreen and relief are closely …
The Impact Of A Physical Activity Intervention On The Physical Activity Self-Efficacy Of Preadolescent Females, Katherine Hommel
The Impact Of A Physical Activity Intervention On The Physical Activity Self-Efficacy Of Preadolescent Females, Katherine Hommel
All Theses
Females often do not participate in the recommended level of physical activity on a regular basis possibly leading to both physical and psychological consequences. Reasons for lack of participation include a lack of self-efficacy. Self-efficacy theory proposes that self-efficacy is a key determinant in maintenance, adoption, and perseverance in difficult tasks. Recent literature has supported a relationship between an individual's physical activity self-efficacy and actual behaviors relating to physical activity.
The Finding Your Voice program was aimed at increasing pre-adolescent female's self-efficacy for physical activity through education and practical experience. The primary purpose of this study was to determine the …
Wherefore Art Thou, Romeo?: A Study Of Three Late Twentieth-Century Film Adaptations And Appropriations Of Romeo And Juliet, Geoffrey Way
Wherefore Art Thou, Romeo?: A Study Of Three Late Twentieth-Century Film Adaptations And Appropriations Of Romeo And Juliet, Geoffrey Way
All Theses
This thesis is an audience-centric study of the socio-political aspects of three late twentieth-century film versions of William Shakespeare's Romeo and Juliet: Baz Luhrmann's William Shakespeare's Romeo + Juliet (1996), Lloyd Kaufman's Tromeo and Juliet (1996), and Andrzej Bartkowiak's Romeo Must Die (2000). It explores how each film utilizes popular culture and late twentieth-century American society in tandem with themes and concepts from Shakespeare's play. It then analyzes the different techniques each director used to create a sense of recognition for the audience through the use of these various elements. It looks at how Luhrmann's film worked to bring Shakespeare's …
The Presidential Crisis Rhetoric Of September 11th, 2001 And Hurricane Katrina: Examples Of Charismatic Leadership Or Not?, Kelly Davis
All Theses
This study investigates the influence of crisis on the use of charismatic rhetoric. Using computerized content analysis, the speeches and radio addresses of President Bush were examined during four time periods, including pre- and post-September 11th and pre- and post-Hurricane Katrina. Theoretical characteristics of charismatic leadership were examined through the development of eight charismatic rhetoric constructs (collective focus, temporal orientation, followers' worth, similarity to followers, values and moral justifications, tangibility, action, and adversity). Results from MANOVA tests reveal that the rhetorical leadership of President Bush became more charismatic following each of the crises, which suggests that the increased charisma was …

Pondering Pleasure, Nicole Morita
All Theses
Food is a central component of our daily lives. The highly charged, fast-paced world of today is a place we all move quickly through, often stopping just in time to eat and then continue on our way. The significance of food in rituals helps us recognize and remember this pleasure. My sculptural practice explores aspects of food in regards to pleasure, giving, and reception. Time, labor, and ritual are reflected in the techniques and processes used to manipulate various temporal and permanent materials. Senses of taste, touch and smell are incorporated the following sculptural works with the in an attempt …
'What Do We Get From Pakistan?' Major Shifts In U.S.-Pakistan Relations 1947-1982, Russell Williams
'What Do We Get From Pakistan?' Major Shifts In U.S.-Pakistan Relations 1947-1982, Russell Williams
All Theses
ABSTRACT
This thesis examines two crucial periods in the history of U.S.-Pakistan relations and how American policy makers' strategic thinking about Pakistan shaped the course of relations. Following the Korean War and the Soviet invasion of Afghanistan, the United States invested heavily in the military forces of Pakistan. During both periods, it was widely held that the Soviet Union endeavored to threaten the Middle East and gain an outlet onto Indian Ocean. American planners believed that because of Pakistan's strategic location, it would be essential to preventing Soviet expansion in the region. In many ways, U.S. thinking in both periods …
Cause-Related Marketing For Breast Cancer:Investigating Tools For Partnerships, Katherine Hunter
Cause-Related Marketing For Breast Cancer:Investigating Tools For Partnerships, Katherine Hunter
All Theses
The thesis outlines cause-related marketing (CRM) campaigns and examines the effectiveness and implications for the organizations involved. CRM campaigns are when corporate entities partner with philanthropies in order to advance the 'cause' for which the philanthropic organization supports. SWOT methodology is used to analyze three cases: a short term success, a long term success, and a 'failure.' From these three cases, best practices and learning points are observed which can be used to develop successful campaigns. Ethical implications such as Yoplait's tactics in the 'Save Lids to Save Lives' campaign are discussed to better understand CRM's repercussions. The conclusion addresses …
The Role Of Exigencies In Marketing: A Rhetorical Analysis Of Three Online Social Networks, Greg Martin
The Role Of Exigencies In Marketing: A Rhetorical Analysis Of Three Online Social Networks, Greg Martin
All Theses
Over the last few years, the use of online social networks has increased exponentially, and some of these 'virtual communities' are among the most visited sites on the Internet. With this boom in popularity has also come a rise in the need for marketing within these spaces, and very little academic literature exists on how to best utilize this new and budding arena for advertising ventures. Traditional business approaches to marketing are no longer adequate because of the radicalization of new media found within online social networks. This thesis, therefore, provides a new metric of success for social network marketing, …
Ethical Strategies That Make 'Good' Business Sense: Direct-To-Consumer Advertising Of Prescription Products, Bambi Thompson
Ethical Strategies That Make 'Good' Business Sense: Direct-To-Consumer Advertising Of Prescription Products, Bambi Thompson
All Theses
The increased use of direct-to-consumer (DTC) advertising of prescription pharmaceuticals has caused everyone from physicians and patients to congressmen and professionals to question the ethics of the practice. Although the Federal Drug Administration (FDA) regulates advertising content, healthcare professionals often criticize the practice on the basis of weakening the doctor-patient relationship and jeopardizing patient well-being. Pharmaceutical companies have found print and broadcast ads in DTC campaigns to greatly increase the sales of their products. However, because of the impact of DTC on patient lives and health, the ethics of the practice need examination. The purpose of this thesis is to …

A Lean Modeling Protocol For Evaluating Green Project Delivery, Leidy E. Klotz, Michael Horman, Mark Bodenschatz
A Lean Modeling Protocol For Evaluating Green Project Delivery, Leidy E. Klotz, Michael Horman, Mark Bodenschatz
Publications
The first vital step to leaning an operation is to model or map the processes used to deliver value in that operation. This allows the requisite understanding of where waste and non value-adding activity exists, and provides the foundation for improvement. Current protocols for modeling operations present the basic tenets for lean mapping, but tend to be based in manufacturing language, and are not easily adapted to capital facilities projects. “Green” or “sustainable” capital projects delivered using current project delivery systems seem to be laden with hidden waste. These projects tend to be more challenging to deliver due increased levels …
