Scarlet Letter Punishment For Juveniles: Rehabilitation Through Humiliation?, Bonnie Mangum Braudway

Campbell Law Review

This comment begins by discussing the historical development of the juvenile justice system and society's use of shaming penalties. In Section III, it will point out the dangers of using shaming penalties on juvenile offenders. Section IV will explore how the highest courts in two major jurisdictions may handle an appeal from a fictional juvenile sentenced to a shaming punishment. Finally, the comment will discuss possible improvements in the juvenile justice system.

Characterization Of The Aspergillus Parasiticus Delta12-Desaturase Gene: A Role For Lipid Metabolism In The Aspergillus/Plant Interaction, Ana M. Calvo, R.A. Wilson, P.K. Chang, N.P. Keller

Faculty Articles, Papers, and Other Scholarship

In the mycotoxigenic oilseed pathogens Aspergillus flavus and Aspergillus parasiticus and the model filamentous fungus Aspergillus nidulans, unsaturated fatty acids and their derivatives act as important developmental signals that affect asexual conidiospore, sexual ascospore and/or sclerotial development. To dissect the relationship between lipid metabolism and fungal development, an A. parasiticus D12-desaturase mutant that was unable to convert oleic acid to linoleic acid and was thus impaired in polyunsaturated fatty acid biosynthesis was generated. The D12-desaturase mutant demonstrates delayed spore germination, a twofold reduction in growth, a reduced level of conidiation and complete loss of sclerotial development, compared to the wild-type. …

Macrocycle-Derived Functional Xanthenes And Progress Towards Concurrent Detection Of Glucose And Fructose, Oleksandr Rusin, Onur Alpturk, Ming He, Jorge O. Escobedo, Shan Jiang, Fareed Dawan, Kun Lian, Matthew E. Mccarroll, Isiah M. Warner, Robert M. Strongin

Faculty Publications

The detection of saccharides in biological media is of great current importance for the monitoring of disease states. We have previously reported that solutions of boronic acid-functionalized macrocycles form acyclic oligomeric materials in situ. The oligomers contain fluorescent xanthene moieties. Current efforts are aimed at modulating the spectroscopic responses of these materials for the analysis of specific sugars. We describe conditions whereby the xanthene boronic acids exhibit high colorimetric fructose selectivity. In contrast, at physiological levels selective glucose monitoring can be achieved via fluorescence. Additionally, we describe a method which exhibits promise for detecting both glucose and fructose at dual …

The Chlamydomonas Reinhardtii Proteins Ccp1 And Ccp2 Are Required For Long-Term Growth, But Are Not Necessary For Efficient Photosynthesis, In A Low-Co2 Environment, Steve V. Pollock, Davey L. Prout, Ashley C. Godfrey, Stephane D. Lemaire, James V. Moroney

Faculty Publications

The unicellular green alga Chlamydomonas reinhardtii acclimates to a low-CO2 environment by modifying the expression of a number of messages. Many of the genes that increase in abundance during acclimation to low-CO2 are under the control of the putative transcription factor Cia5. C. reinhardtii mutants null for cia5 do not express several of the known low-CO2 inducible genes and do not grow in a low-CO2 environment. Two of the genes under the control of Cia5, Ccp1 and Ccp2, encode polypeptides that are localized to the chloroplast envelope and have a high degree of similarity to members of the mitochondrial carrier …

Recommender Systems Research: A Connection-Centric Survey, Saverio Perugini, Marcos André Gonçalves, Edward A. Fox

Computer Science Faculty Publications

Recommender systems attempt to reduce information overload and retain customers by selecting a subset of items from a universal set based on user preferences. While research in recommender systems grew out of information retrieval and filtering, the topic has steadily advanced into a legitimate and challenging research area of its own. Recommender systems have traditionally been studied from a content-based filtering vs. collaborative design perspective. Recommendations, however, are not delivered within a vacuum, but rather cast within an informal community of users and social context. Therefore, ultimately all recommender systems make connections among people and thus should be surveyed from …

Modeling And Propagation Of Near-Field Diffraction Patterns: A More Complete Approach, Glen D. Gillen, Shekhar Guha

Physics

We discuss the origins and regions of validity of various near-field diffraction models. The complete Rayleigh–Sommerfeld model is found to accurately represent intensity distributions for axial distances up to and including the location of the aperture, a region where commonly used models fail. We show that near-field diffraction theory can be applied to the refraction of light at an interface between two different media yielding results that demonstrate the validity of Snell’s law in the presence of diffraction. Calculations using near-field diffraction and Fourier optics are compared to experimentally measured intensity distributions

Listening Spaces: Audiophiles, Technology And Domestic Music Listening, Brian O'Neill

Conference Papers

This paper examines the interrelationship of technology, space and identity as exhibited in the domestic music listening practices of the audiophile. Music listening in domestic contexts provides both a physical and imaginary space of cultural consumption. The paper describes work in progress into phenomenological aspects of listening, practices of audio technology use in domestic contexts, and features of identity formation based on a qualitative study of hi-fi listeners. Technological and cultural change in the production of aural soundscapes and processes of reception provide the backdrop to the current study. Three main issues are addressed. Firstly, the promise of digital technology …
