Career Readiness And Preparation Criteria In Undergraduate Dance Degree Programs, Kathleen E. Klein Jul 2003

Career Readiness And Preparation Criteria In Undergraduate Dance Degree Programs, Kathleen E. Klein

Graduate Student Dissertations, Theses, Capstones, and Portfolios

The purpose of the research study was to examine the history and philosophy of certain very distinct dance degree programs. The dissertation is intended to serve as a resource to benefit faculty and administrators in American undergraduate and graduate level dance programs. The primary goal was to recognize emergent themes aimed at stronger outcomes for students seeking a career track in dance. Beginning with an overview of the historical development of dance and dance education in the United States, the study closely examined the current cultural, educational, and political structures, functions, and mechanisms which influence prevailing public views of this …


Adaptive Live Video Streaming By Priority Drop, Jie Huang, Charles Krasic, Jonathan Walpole Jul 2003

Adaptive Live Video Streaming By Priority Drop, Jie Huang, Charles Krasic, Jonathan Walpole

Computer Science Faculty Publications and Presentations

In this paper we explore the use of Priority-progress streaming (PPS) for video surveillance applications. PPS is an adaptive streaming technique for the delivery of continuous media over variable bit-rate channels. It is based on the simple idea of reordering media components within a time window into priority order before transmission. The main concern when using PPS for live video streaming is the time delay introduced by reordering. In this paper we describe how PPS can be extended to support live streaming and show that the delay inherent in the approach can be tuned to satisfy a wide range of …

Ascaris Suum: Cdna Microarray Analysis Of 4th Stage Larvae (L4) During Self-Cure From The Intestine, Motoko Morimoto, Dante Zarlenga, Hunter Beard, Nadim Alkharouf, Benjamin F. Matthews, Joseph F. Urban Jr. Jul 2003

Ascaris Suum: Cdna Microarray Analysis Of 4th Stage Larvae (L4) During Self-Cure From The Intestine, Motoko Morimoto, Dante Zarlenga, Hunter Beard, Nadim Alkharouf, Benjamin F. Matthews, Joseph F. Urban Jr.

United States Department of Agriculture-Agricultural Research Service / University of Nebraska-Lincoln: Faculty Publications

There is spontaneous cure of a large portion of Ascaris suum 4th-stage larvae (L4) from the jejunum of infected pigs between 14 and 21 days after inoculation (DAI). Those L4 that remain in the jejunum continue to develop while those that have moved to the ileum are eventually expelled from the intestines. Although increases in intestinal mucosal mast cells and changes in localhost immunity are coincidental with spontaneous cure, the population of L4 that continue to develop in the jejunum may counteract host protective mechanisms by the differential production of factors related to parasitism. To this end, a cDNA library …


A Molecular Approach To Assessing Meiofauna Diversity In Marine Sediments, Heather C. Hamilton Jul 2003

A Molecular Approach To Assessing Meiofauna Diversity In Marine Sediments, Heather C. Hamilton

USF Tampa Graduate Theses and Dissertations

A Molecular Approach to Assessing Meiofauna Diversity in Marine Sediments Heather C. Hamilton Abstract The purpose of this study was to determine if a molecular approach could be applied to calculating the diversity of meiofauna in marine sediments from two sites in Tampa Bay, FL, similar to the approach of McCaig et al, 1999 in calculating the diversity of microbes in pastureland soils. The approach includes extracting total DNA directly from the sediment and amplifying the 18S rRNA gene by PCR. Clone libraries from the 18S gene would be created for each site and 300 sequences from each clone library …


Falun Gong In The United States: An Ethnographic Study, Noah Porter Jul 2003

Falun Gong In The United States: An Ethnographic Study, Noah Porter

USF Tampa Graduate Theses and Dissertations

Falun Gong, also known as Falun Dafa, has been described in many ways. It has been called qigong, one of many schools of physical exercises that aim at improving health and developing "supernatural abilities". Scholars and mainstream media have referred it to as a "spiritual movement" or religion, although practitioners claim it is not a religion. It has been called a cult, in the pejorative sense rather than in a sociological context, by the Chinese government and by some Western critics. In the writings of Li Hongzhi, the founder of Falun Gong, it is referred to in different ways, …


Use Of Silica-Supported Adsorbents, Modified Silica Gel, Modified Montmorillonite Ksf And Magnetite In The Remediation Of Selected Heavy Metals From Aqueous Media, Craig Alcindor Ivan Bowe Jul 2003

Use Of Silica-Supported Adsorbents, Modified Silica Gel, Modified Montmorillonite Ksf And Magnetite In The Remediation Of Selected Heavy Metals From Aqueous Media, Craig Alcindor Ivan Bowe

USF Tampa Graduate Theses and Dissertations

Pollution of the earth's water resources, including freshwater sources such as lakes and rivers, by heavy metals have been a detriment to the environment for as long as the industrial age of man. As these metallic pollutants accumulate in the supply of precious groundwater and drinking water the need for clean-up technologies to combat the increasing threat is becoming of more importance to government and industry alike. Previous work has established the possibility of using known chelating agents, such as LIX-54® supported on silica gel in the removal of selected heavy metal ions such as copper(II), nickel(II) , and cadmium(II) …

Gaze-Centered Updating Of Visual Space In Human Parietal Cortex., W Pieter Medendorp, Herbert C Goltz, Tutis Vilis, J Douglas Crawford Jul 2003

Gaze-Centered Updating Of Visual Space In Human Parietal Cortex., W Pieter Medendorp, Herbert C Goltz, Tutis Vilis, J Douglas Crawford

Brain and Mind Institute Researchers' Publications

Single-unit recordings have identified a region in the posterior parietal cortex (PPC) of the monkey that represents and updates visual space in a gaze-centered frame. Here, using event-related functional magnetic resonance imaging, we identified an analogous bilateral region in the human PPC that shows contralateral topography for memory-guided eye movements and arm movements. Furthermore, when eye movements reversed the remembered horizontal target location relative to the gaze fixation point, this PPC region exchanged activity across the two cortical lobules. This shows that the human PPC dynamically updates the spatial goals for action in a gaze-centered frame.
