Erma Bombeck Writers' Workshop Blog

My memory of the 2022 Erma Bombeck Writers Workshop is a bit blurry. No, that’s not due to a couple late-night roundtables in the hotel bar, where the conversations flowed even more freely than the drinks. The weekend seems blurry because it flew by so, so quickly. Faster than a speeding fork devouring chocolate lava cake. Faster than the amazing quick wit of a host of comedy professionals.

What Is The Rosary? Why A Set Of Beads And Prayers Are Central To Catholic Faith, Kayla Harris

Marian Library Faculty Publications

It’s one of the most famous moments in modern Catholicism: the apparition of Our Lady of Fatima. The Virgin Mary allegedly appeared to three Portuguese children in 1917, when much of the world was engulfed in World War I. Over a series of six appearances, Mary emphasized to these young shepherds that to bring peace, they should pray the rosary every day.

Devotion to the rosary already had a centuries-old history, and the Marian apparition at Fatima only deepened it. So what is a rosary, and why is it so important to many Catholics?

Electro-Optical Sensors For Atmospheric Turbulence Strength Characterization With Embedded Edge Ai Processing Of Scintillation Patterns, Ernst Polnau, Don L. N. Hettiarachchi, Mikhail A. Vorontsov

Electro-Optics and Photonics Faculty Publications

This study introduces electro-optical (EO) sensors (TurbNet sensors) that utilize a remote laser beacon (either coherent or incoherent) and an optical receiver with CCD camera and embedded edge AI computer (Jetson Xavier Nx) for in situ evaluation of the path-averaged atmospheric turbulence refractive index structure parameter C-n(2) at a high temporal rate. Evaluation of C-n(2) values was performed using deep neural network (DNN)-based real-time processing of short-exposure laser-beacon light intensity scintillation patterns (images) captured by a TurbNet sensor optical receiver. Several pre-trained DNN models were loaded onto the AI computer and used for TurbNet sensor performance evaluation in a set …
