Robot Heavens And Robot Dreams: Ultimate Reality In A.I. And Other Recent Films, Frances Flannery-Dailey

Journal of Religion & Film

Numerous recent films understand ultimate reality to be multi-layered. This article examines the various formulas films use to express this idea, such as heaven, dreams, technology, temporal loops and altered mental states, while also exploring the various religious and philosophical traditions on which these "ultimate reality films" draw. Next, I suggest a postmodern framework as a way of accounting for the ubiquity of the reality theme across filmic genres and I argue that film is a unique medium for expressing this epistemology. Finally, I turn to an extensive analysis of A.I. as a case study of a postmodern, multivalent "ultimate …

Economic Impact Of University And Financial Consequences Of University Budget Cuts On The Local And State Economy, Kalyan Chakraborty, Dean Edmiston

Mountain Plains Journal of Business and Technology

This study examines the financial contributions of a regional university’s expenditures on the local and state economy using regional impact multipliers from an input-output model. The empirical application uses income and expenditure data from Emporia State University (ESU) in Kansas and estimates income, output, and employment multipliers. In FY 2000, ESU, its ancillary units, students, and visitors directly injected $125 million into the state economy generating $343 million output, $94 million earnings, and 4,195 jobs in Kansas. For every dollar of University expenditure there is an additional $1.74 output generated and for every job that the University creates there is …

Business Faculty Opinions Of Teaching Methods And Resources, Gundars Kaupins, Malcolm Coco

Mountain Plains Journal of Business and Technology

About two hundred and eighty business professors compared seventeen teaching methods and resources based on four objectives. Interactive, hands-on teaching methods such as internships were rated first and less interactive teaching resources such as radio were rated last. Web courses that included more interaction such as chats were rated higher than Web courses with audio, typed lectures, and videos. However, all four types of Web courses investigated were rated in the bottom half of the teaching methods and resources. Results correspond to major principles of andragogy theory.

The Best Undergraduate Marketing Education Programs: An Assessment, Wayne A. Roberts Jr, Dennis Vredenburg

Mountain Plains Journal of Business and Technology

The purpose of this research was to determine the content and structure of the best undergraduate marketing programs, as identified by U.S. News and World Report for 2002 and 2003. Results show there are basically two types of programs. The first type does not have a marketing major program. Rather, the student’s program reflects the elective courses taken beyond the common core requirements. The second, more common, type requires students to take some set of courses, after which a marketing credential, e.g., a marketing major degree, is awarded. Among these schools anywhere from 3 to 7 marketing courses beyond the …

Teaching The Potential Impacts Of Technology Growth On Required Rates Of Return, John D. Groesbeck

Mountain Plains Journal of Business and Technology

As professors of economics and finance, we often teach that technology enhances profits, which is well and good, and probably true from a macroeconomic point of view. However, recent market experiences with respect to the technology sector show that the process of technological innovation is often messy, and subject to devastatingly high levels of risk at the firm level. It is the intent of this paper to provide financial educators with some tools to incorporate the assessment, and pricing of technology risk in the undergraduate and graduate curriculum.

Organizational Preparation For Terrorist Attack, Alan Wallace, Vernon Harper

Mountain Plains Journal of Business and Technology

In the event of a terrorist attack causing mass casualties or nuclear, biological, or chemical contamination, emergency responders easily can be overwhelmed by demands for their services. Advance planning by organizations with the advice of emergency responders to safeguard people from becoming victims, to care for victims before emergency responders arrive, and to render assistance to emergency responders once they arrive is critical to mitigating damage.

Organizational learning tools are tools designed to aid an organization toward becoming a learning organization. Analysis reveals that future search conference design includes organizational learning tools of dialogue, scenario planning, the “Merlin Exercise” and knowledge management and mapping. To some extent, the future search conference design also uses practice fields and action learning.

Navigating The Statute Of Limitations Maze In The Federal Income Tax Arena, Joseph S. Merrill, Katherine D. Black

Mountain Plains Journal of Business and Technology

Individual taxpayers frequently realize that a tax return filed with the IRS needs to be changed for various reasons that may include: previously estimated amounts may later be discovered to have been in error, prior ignorance may have been rectified, or new interpretations of law may have been rendered by the courts or the IRS. The need to adjust a previously filed return may be discovered in the year of filing, or several years later.

State and federal laws generally create statutes of limitation that let the parties to litigation know when the deadlines for bringing the suit expire. Sometimes …

Integrating Network Attached Mass Storage Systems Into Educational Networks: An Initial Examination Of Performance And Security Issues, Dennis Guster, James E. Weber, Charles Hall

Mountain Plains Journal of Business and Technology

As colleges and universities digitalize record storage, classroom support and administrative processes, data storage needs are increasing dramatically. Institutions of higher education are turning to mass storage systems to fill these needs. NAS (network attachedstorage) is often selected over alternatives for cost, scalability and ease of administration reasons. This paper reports the results of an initial study assessing security concerns, performance characteristics, ease of installation, configuration, upgradeability, and use by end users, in an academic installation of network attached storage.

Winter Operations, Abrasives And Salt Brine, Geza Pesti, Yu Liu

Nebraska Department of Transportation: Research Reports

The primary objective of winter maintenance operations is to improve traffic safety and efficiency during winter storm periods. Abrasives and salt brines have been successfully applied to increase traction and prevent snow and ice from bonding to road surface. However, because of some undesired side effects, such as corrosion and damage to the environment, salt and abrasives may need to be supplemented by other substances in some areas. Powerful non-corrosive acetate-based chemicals have been considered by several agencies, but their high price has limited their use. Recent research has focused on the use of new, less corrosive, and highly effective …
