The Origin Of Armstrong's Hot Fives And Hot Sevens, Gene H. Anderson Jan 2003

The Origin Of Armstrong's Hot Fives And Hot Sevens, Gene H. Anderson

Music Faculty Publications

It has been almost fifty years since Louis Armstrong's Hot Five and Hot Seven recordings of 1925-1928 were first recognized in print as a watershed of jazz history and the means by which the trumpeter emerged as the style's first transcendent figure. Since then these views have only intensified. The Hot Fives and Hot Sevens have come to be regarded as harbingers of all jazz since, with Armstrong's status as the “single most creative and innovative force in jazz history” and an “American genius” now well beyond dispute. This study does not question these claims but seeks, rather, to determine …


Saving "Cinderella": History And Story In Ashpet And Ever After, Elisabeth Rose Gruner Jan 2003

Saving "Cinderella": History And Story In Ashpet And Ever After, Elisabeth Rose Gruner

English Faculty Publications

An orphan is mistreated by a cruel surrogate family. The orphan is special, however, and with the intervention of kind and magical parental substitutes, rises to dizzying heights and achieves a happy ending. It’s a familiar tale, from “Cinderella” to Harry Potter —the difference is all in the details. In two fairy tale films of the 1980s and 1990s, those details remove the Cinderella story from the realm of fantasy. Ashpet and Ever After take pains to “realize” Cinderella—to remove almost all elements of magic and fantasy and to imagine, instead, what might make such a story real. Both incorporate …


Evaluating The Usefulness Of Soil Moisture (Forecasts) In Streamflow Prediction For Central Texas , Mohammed Mahmoud Jan 2003

Evaluating The Usefulness Of Soil Moisture (Forecasts) In Streamflow Prediction For Central Texas , Mohammed Mahmoud

Dissertations, Master's Theses and Master's Reports - Open

The past decade has brought significant advancements in seasonal climate forecasting. However, water resources decision support and management continues to be based almost entirely on historical observations and does not take advantage of climate forecasts. This study builds on previous work that conditioned streamflow ensemble forecasts on observable climate indicators, such as the El Niño-Southern Oscillation (ENSO) and the Pacific Decadal Oscillation (PDO) for use in a decision support model for the Highland Lakes multi-reservoir system in central Texas operated by the Lower Colorado River Authority (LCRA). In the current study, seasonal soil moisture is explored as a climate indicator …


Climatological Study Of Transport To The Pico-Nare Site Using Atmospheric Backward Trajectories, Robert Christopher Owen Jan 2003

Climatological Study Of Transport To The Pico-Nare Site Using Atmospheric Backward Trajectories, Robert Christopher Owen

Dissertations, Master's Theses and Master's Reports - Open

This study developed a transport climatology to the PICO-NARE station, in the central North Atlantic Ocean, using a 40-year set of atmospheric back trajectories. The trajectory set was subjected to a cluster analysis in order to group trajectories into six flow patterns, or clusters. An air flow probability analysis was conducted in conjunction with the cluster analysis in order to determine the source regions for flow to the site. Seasonal differences in the flow patterns were found, which included enhanced westerly flow in the winter, decreased westerly flow in the summer, and spring and fall having moderate westerly flow. The …

Stopping The Enron End-Runs And Other Trick Plays: The Book-Tax Accounting Conformity Defense, Anthony J. Luppino Jan 2003

Stopping The Enron End-Runs And Other Trick Plays: The Book-Tax Accounting Conformity Defense, Anthony J. Luppino

Faculty Works

In accounting for business transactions in the United States, it has long been the case that keeping two different sets of books (one for financial reporting and one for income tax reporting) is 'generally accepted.' A company can often effect a transaction that in economic substance begins at 'point A' and ends at 'point B,' but account for the path taken in one manner in its financial statements and in a markedly different manner in the company's income tax returns.

Three prominent examples of this accounting divergence that have become subject to public scrutiny are: 'synthetic leases' of real estate …


Measuring The Pore Sizes Of Sol-Gels Using Argon Effusion Techniques, Thomas J. Noel Ii, Krista Mincey, Catrena Higginbotham Jan 2003

Measuring The Pore Sizes Of Sol-Gels Using Argon Effusion Techniques, Thomas J. Noel Ii, Krista Mincey, Catrena Higginbotham

The Corinthian

The rate of effusion of argon through a sol-gel scaffold will be measured to determine the size of the pores. The effusion rate will then be used to correlate initial pore size to any pore shrinkage that occurs. We will attempt to control the initial pore size by using various-sized paraffin beads as templates throughout the organically modified tetramethoxysilane (TMOS) gel scaffold. Polyethylene glycol (PEG) will also be used to prop open the pore openings and keep them from closing during the drying process.

Phase Retrieval Using A Genetic Algorithm On The Systematic Image-Based Optical Alignment Test Bed, Jaime R. Taylor Jan 2003

Phase Retrieval Using A Genetic Algorithm On The Systematic Image-Based Optical Alignment Test Bed, Jaime R. Taylor

Physics Faculty Research

NASA’s Marshall Space Flight Center’s Systematic Image-Based Optical Alignment (SIBOA) Testbed was developed to test phase retrieval algorithms and hardware techniques. Individuals working with the facility developed the idea of implementing phase retrieval by breaking the determination of the tip/tilt of each mirror apart from the piston motion (or translation) of each mirror. Presented in this report is an algorithm that determines the optimal phase correction associated only with the piston motion of the mirrors.

Plagiarism, Melissa Cast-Brede Jan 2003

Plagiarism, Melissa Cast-Brede

Criss Library Faculty Publications

The news media today is filled with articles on plagiarism. Well known figures such as Stephen Ambrose and Doris Kearns Goodwin parade across our newspapers charged with plagiarizing. Studies from around the country show a high number of high school and college students admitting to using others' works as their own. It's fairly clear that more should be done to prevent plagiarism. In reviewing the literature, prevention of plagiarism involves three issues: understanding why it happens, detecting it and structuring assignments to prevent it.

Life Cycle Of A Torrenticolous Hawaiian Chironomid (Telmatogeton Torrenticola): Stream Flow And Microhabitat Effects, Mark Eric Benbow, Albert J. Burky, C. M. Way Jan 2003

Life Cycle Of A Torrenticolous Hawaiian Chironomid (Telmatogeton Torrenticola): Stream Flow And Microhabitat Effects, Mark Eric Benbow, Albert J. Burky, C. M. Way

Biology Faculty Publications

In this study we documented the instar densities and life cycle of Telmatogeton torrenticola Terry (Chironomidae : Telmatogetoninae) from Kinihapai Stream, Maui, Hawaii. Greatest larval densities of this midge are found on substrates of high velocity, shallow flows of cascades, and splash zones of waterfalls, with lower densities in riffles. In the summer of 1994 we compared the effects of two microhabitats (termed optimal and suboptimal) on inter-instar density and relative abundance. In a second year (1995), we evaluated the effect of long-term reduced stream flow on these variables only in optimal microhabitats. A significant reduction in stream flow from …


In The Wake Of The Tampa: Conflicting Visions Of International Refugee Law In The Management Of Refugee Flows, Mary Crock Jan 2003

In The Wake Of The Tampa: Conflicting Visions Of International Refugee Law In The Management Of Refugee Flows, Mary Crock

Washington International Law Journal

The Australian Government's decision in August 2001 to close its doors to a maritime Good Samaritan, Norwegian Captain Rinnan, his crew, and 433 Afghan and Iraqi rescuees, provided a curious contrast to the image of humanity, generosity, and openness that Australia tried so hard to foster during the 2000 Olympic Games in Sydney. Victims or villains according to how the facts and the law are characterized, the MI/V Tampa rescuers represented for lawyers the intersection of a variety of areas of law and a clash of legal principles. The ambiguities in both international and state law pertaining to asylum seekers …

The Effects Of Self-Esteem On Attribution Making In Close Versus Casual Relationships, P Nathaniel O'Brien Jan 2003

The Effects Of Self-Esteem On Attribution Making In Close Versus Casual Relationships, P Nathaniel O'Brien

All Volumes (2001-2008)

This study explored the effect of self-esteem on attributions made in close and acquaintance relationships. It was predicted that people are more likely to attribute negative events to others and are also more likely to attribute positive events to themselves. This trend was expected more in casual relationships than in close relationships and also more for people with high self-esteem than people with low self-esteem. Students answered questions about hypothetical scenarios involving either a best friend or casual acquaintance. The measurements used in the survey were the Relationship Attribution Measure and the Rosenberg Self-Esteem Scale. The second and third hypotheses …


Gas Flow And Heat Transfer In Microchannels: An Experiment Al Investigation Of Compressibility, Rarefaction, And Surf Ace Roughness, Stephen Edward Turner Jan 2003

Gas Flow And Heat Transfer In Microchannels: An Experiment Al Investigation Of Compressibility, Rarefaction, And Surf Ace Roughness, Stephen Edward Turner

Open Access Dissertations

This dissertation presents an experimental investigation of laminar gas flow and heat transfer through microchannels. The independent variables: relative surface roughness, Knudsen number, Reynolds number and Mach number were systematically varied to determine their influence on the friction factor and the Nusselt number. The microchannels were etched into silicon wafers, capped with glass, and have hydraulic diameters between 5 and 96 microns. Isothermal gas flow was investigated by measuring the local pressure at seven locations along the channel length. Heat transfer experiments were conducted using thin film sensors developed for direct measurement of the surface temperature.

Eight microchannel test sections …


Remote Sensing And Landscape Analysis Of Indicators Of Estuarine Condition In The Northeastern United States, Wilfrid Rodriguez Jan 2003

Remote Sensing And Landscape Analysis Of Indicators Of Estuarine Condition In The Northeastern United States, Wilfrid Rodriguez

Open Access Dissertations

I focused on four questions: (1) are measures of estuarine water quality the same across study regions; (2) are spatial setting variables and intense rainfall events important in explaining variation in water quality measures; (3) what is the relationship between patterns of land cover and estuarine condition; and (4) is land-cover change a good regional indicator of estuarine condition? Estuarine data was extracted from the Environmental Monitoring and Assessment Program (EMAP) and Coastal-2000 surveys. Geographical Information System's modeling, land cover change detection, cumulative distribution functions and multiple linear regression analyses were used to quantify land-water interactions in three regions representing …


An Integrated Approach To Finish Machining Of Rp-Produced Parts, Xiuzhi Qu Jan 2003

An Integrated Approach To Finish Machining Of Rp-Produced Parts, Xiuzhi Qu

Open Access Dissertations

Rapid Prototyping (RP) techniques are being increasingly used in industry to manufacture functional parts or tools, due to the fact that they have many benefits over traditional methods such as making parts with complex shapes and advanced material systems. However, this kind of layered manufacturing approach, decomposing the 3D CAD model into 2D layers and building the part layer by layer, still has practical limitations on surface quality and accuracy. Therefore, CNC machining is often necessary for finishing rapid manufactured parts to an appropriate accuracy and surface finish for many applications. For most RP techniques, the shrinkage levels and the …
