Formula For Success: How Las Vegas Became The Entertainment Capital Of The World, Scott M Pruett
Formula For Success: How Las Vegas Became The Entertainment Capital Of The World, Scott M Pruett
UNLV Retrospective Theses & Dissertations
This paper will espouse the theory that Las Vegas was able to evolve into the entertainment capital of the world by establishing itself as an island of controlled social deviance. That is to say that the city became an area of regulatory exception---one with distinct legal differences in a limited geographical area---and allowed a degree of social deviance by permitting behaviors that would be illegal in nearly any other American city. My research will show that when such an environment enables its visitors to experience extended periods of pleasurable sensory stimulation, whether the inducement be physical, psychological, or chemical, this …
Critical Introductions To Pioneering Works Of Social Realism From The Early Abbey Theatre, John C Kerrigan
Critical Introductions To Pioneering Works Of Social Realism From The Early Abbey Theatre, John C Kerrigan
UNLV Retrospective Theses & Dissertations
This dissertation presents a critical study of five dramatic works first performed at Dublin's Abbey Theatre in the early twentieth century. The plays considered here have often been called masterpieces by critics, yet they have received little serious scholarly attention and today are forgotten relics of the Abbey's past. Nonetheless, these plays---Padraic Colum's Thomas Muskerry (1910), St. John Ervine's John Ferguson (1915), T. C. Murray's Autumn Fire (1924), Lennox Robinson's The Big House (1926), and Teresa Deevy's Katie Roche (1936)---formed a backbone for the fledgling national theater. They were successful because they attracted and engaged their audiences, but furthermore they …
Writing Cinema: Film In The Novel From Wilson To Coover, Gregory Robinson
Writing Cinema: Film In The Novel From Wilson To Coover, Gregory Robinson
UNLV Retrospective Theses & Dissertations
Film and fiction are the sister arts of the twentieth century. Like any family, their relationship has not always been a tranquil one, but no other combination of arts over the last century has inspired the amount of debate and dialogue that they have, both in and out of academia. Beginning with George Bluestone's seminal Novels into Film (1957), academic involvement with film and fiction have primarily used two modes of comparative studies: adaptation and stylistics. The first compares a novel to its cinematic adaptation and the second compares a particular literary form with a cinematic technique. Although both approaches …
The Influence Of Street Culture On Brand Identity In Graphic Design, Holly Parshall
The Influence Of Street Culture On Brand Identity In Graphic Design, Holly Parshall
Theses
Problem Statement: This thesis explores the influence of street culture on brand identity in graphic design. Aspects of street culture include skateboarding, hip-hop, rap, punk, and street art. Street art is traditionally thought of as illegal or rebellious mark-making of public property or property that does not belong to the person making marks on it. Street art can also be defined as a means of crafting personal expression through the enhancement or augmentation of a natural or man-made environment. In this study, brand identity is defined as "the controllable and fundamental elements of a company, product, or service brand, such …
Using Social Support And Theoretically Derived Messages To Increase Awareness And Use Of The C&O Canal National Historical Park For Walking: An Intervention Focused On Local Employees., Lydia H. Lawson
Graduate Theses, Dissertations, and Problem Reports (ETD)
There have been a number of recent studies documenting the various physical, psychological, and social health benefits associated with participation in regular physical activity. In response to compelling evidence of the benefits associated with improving health and in an attempt to promote healthy lifestyles, the Bush Administration proposed the Healthier U.S. Initiative (Executive Order 13266) in 2002. The purpose of this initiative was to promote the use of public lands to improve personal health by encouraging their use for physical activity. Based on the recommendations of the National Park Service Advisory Board Subcommittee on Health & Recreation (2006), the C&O …
The Third 'I': Creating Of The Fictional History Of Marcus Hubbard., Alexander Pawlowski
The Third 'I': Creating Of The Fictional History Of Marcus Hubbard., Alexander Pawlowski
Graduate Theses, Dissertations, and Problem Reports (ETD)
In this thesis, you will read how I used a specific actor’s tool of analysis, called “The Three ‘I’s,” to create the character of Marcus Hubbard in WVU’s production of Lillian Hellman’s Another Part of the Forest . This technique consists of using “Investigation,” “Inference” and “Invention” to create a biography of the character. This is done so that the actor may know all of the major events in the character’s life, even those not seemingly important to the story of the play. These events shape the character and give him a foundation for the motivations that make him do …

Graduate Theses, Dissertations, and Problem Reports (ETD)
In this paper, the reader will follow the journey I took when approaching and performing the role of Regina Hubbard in West Virginia University’s fall ‘07 production of Another Part of the Forest by Lillian Hellmann. First I will share my impressions of the script and my audition process. Then explore the rehearsal process, a five-week journey, where I found Regina’s voice, motivations, and mannerisms. I will then discuss the exploration of performing this role in front of audience, what discoveries that brought to my process and how that affected my interpretation and portrayal of Regina. I will conclude with …

Benjamin: "Another Part Of The Forest"., Jonathan Alan Walton
Graduate Theses, Dissertations, and Problem Reports (ETD)
My performance of Ben in Lillian Hellman’s Another Part of the Forest is a mark of my current acting process in comparison with my past acting work. The focus of this paper is how I have honed in on specific techniques and stripped away specific personal habits that have prevented me from giving a strong and honest performance based in visceral response.

Essays On The Effects Of State And Local Public Policy: Gasoline Taxes, Clean Indoor Air Regulations, And Gross Receipts Taxes., Randall A. Childs
Essays On The Effects Of State And Local Public Policy: Gasoline Taxes, Clean Indoor Air Regulations, And Gross Receipts Taxes., Randall A. Childs
Graduate Theses, Dissertations, and Problem Reports (ETD)
This dissertation is a collection of essays examining the secondary effects of state and local public policies. The first chapter provides an introduction and outlines the research agenda for the dissertation. Chapter 2 analyzes the effects of the gasoline unit and ad valorem excise taxes on consumption of gasoline by grade. The results show that, while the unit excise tax can cause consumers to substitute toward higher quality (higher octane) gasoline, the opposite effect can also occur as prices rise and the income effect outweighs the substitution effect. Chapter 3 examines the effects of clean indoor air regulations on employment …
Socialisation Of The Islamic Terrorist: The Case Of Indonesia, Joshua Snider
Socialisation Of The Islamic Terrorist: The Case Of Indonesia, Joshua Snider
Theses
As the world's largest Muslim country, the resurgence of Islamist religiosity in Indonesia over the past 10 years has been a source of great concern for security and terrorism analysts. In an effort to shift away from the sort of discourse the explains violent Islamist religiosity in Indonesia as an offshoot of Middle East politics and the policy demands of the Global War on Terror, my specific field of interest in this thesis surrounds processes of political socialization and what exactly drives the transformation process from those nominally influenced by various kinds of revisionist conservative theology to those that become …

Directing Dead White Males: A Year In The Trenches Of Teaching, Emily Eisenman
Honors Program Theses
I co-produced and directed the full-length play Dead White Males: A Year in the Trenches of Teaching for the UNI Interpreters Theatre as my Senior Honors thesis project. Co-producing and directing this project gave me the opportunity to collaborate with fellow students, members of the Cedar Valley community, and UNI faculty and staff. In doing this project, I was able to explore positive and negative aspects of education that had not been discussed in my education courses as of yet, in addition to gaining experience in producing and directing a major theatrical production, which I wish to do in my …

Adapting Information Operations To A Changing World: Future Options For The United States Government, Edwin L. Armistead
Adapting Information Operations To A Changing World: Future Options For The United States Government, Edwin L. Armistead
Theses: Doctorates and Masters
In 1998, the Department of Defense in the United States released the first of a series of seminal policies on Information Operations (IO). Entitled Joint Publication 3-13, this instruction laid out for the first time, in an unclassified format, how the American military forces could utilise this particular element of power. As a relative newly defined activity, this publication proposed to revolutionise the manner in which warfare, diplomacy, business and a number of other areas are conducted. However, this radical transformation in the United States government with regard to IQ has not occurred over the last decade and a significant …
A Near Term Retrospective On The Al-Dujail Trial & The Death Of Saddam Hussein, Michael A. Newton
A Near Term Retrospective On The Al-Dujail Trial & The Death Of Saddam Hussein, Michael A. Newton
Vanderbilt Law School Faculty Publications
Saddam Hussein al-Tikriti died at the hands of Iraqi officials at dawn on December 30, 2006, following a tumultuous fourteen month trial3 for crimes committed against the citizens of a relatively obscure Iraqi village known as al-Dujail.4 Maintaining his façade of disdain when the verdict and sentence were announced on November 5, 2006, Saddam entered the courtroom with an arrogant strut and refused to stand until the guards made him do so to hear the judge’s opinion.5 When Saddam interrupted the reading of the verdict, Judge Ra’ouf Rasheed Abdel Rahman turned down the volume of his microphone and spoke over …
The Proficiency Of English As A Second Language Students At A U.S. Metropolitan University: A Survey Of The Beliefs And Perceptions Of Core-Course Instructors, Pamela Henline Villines
The Proficiency Of English As A Second Language Students At A U.S. Metropolitan University: A Survey Of The Beliefs And Perceptions Of Core-Course Instructors, Pamela Henline Villines
Theses and Dissertations
The success of English as a Second Language (ESL) students at university level in the United States depends upon their ability to perform at a level of language proficiency deemed adequate by university core-course instructors. This writing begins with the historical derivation of “language proficiency,” and continues on to examine the curricular demands of the Intensive English Language Program (IELP) at the University of Arkansas at Little Rock (UALR). ESL students, both IELP graduates and IELP non-affiliates, may enroll in the core courses required to earn a degree from UALR. This thesis is based on the results of a survey …
Factors Affecting The Production Of Fermented Moist Feed For Chickens And Effects On The Gastrointestinal Environment, Aziwo Tatanja Niba
Factors Affecting The Production Of Fermented Moist Feed For Chickens And Effects On The Gastrointestinal Environment, Aziwo Tatanja Niba
School of Biological and Marine Sciences Theses
Fermented feed technology is a biosafe method of feed preparation and fermentation improves feed quality. Factors affecting lactic acid production in fen-nented moist feed for chickens and the influence of fermented feed on the gastrointestinal environment of chickens were investigated. Water quality was observed to affect lactic acid production in fermentation of cereals (maize, sorghum, wheat and barley). The presence of calcium carbonate in the fermentation mixture significantly (P<0.01) reduced lactic acid production from maize, sorghum and wheat. Grain particle size did not significantly affect feed fermentation as biosafe concentrations of lactic acid (>150mmol/L) were obtained from fermentation of coarse grain particle sizes. Differences in polyphenols content of red and white sorghum varieties did not have a significant effect on 24-hour lactic acid production …
Constructing African American Histories In Central Florida, Katherine Parry
Constructing African American Histories In Central Florida, Katherine Parry
Electronic Theses and Dissertations
From the time of their occurrence up to the present, people have constructed and revised narratives about violent racial events in Florida. In the case of the racial violence in Ocoee and the lynching of July Perry, multiple accounts coexisted until one particular group in the 1990's contested earlier conservative white Southern narratives with new public memories containing African American perspectives of the events, demanding racial justice and memorialization of the events. A struggle over the power to construct this narrative resulted in compromises between the two sets of memories. While some goals were attained, the landscape of memorization remains …

Turkey In The Caspian Sea Region, Seyma Akkoyunlu
Electronic Theses and Dissertations
This thesis will determine the influence of Turkey's domestic resources on Turkey's foreign relations with the five Turkic states in the Caspian Sea Region. The spheres analyzed in this study are the common ties, which are history, culture, religion and language, with the regional countries, pan-Turkism, Turkey's initial interactions as well as ongoing constructive policies in the region. Findings showed that both Turkey and the five Turkic republics were enthusiastic to carry their relations in every field to future cooperation following the break up of the Soviet Union. However the Turkic Republics' interest in Turkish development model gradually declined starting …

In Search Of Female Space : Resistance And Creation In Tsitsi Dangarembga’S Nervous Conditions And She No Longer Weeps, Diana Mckenna
In Search Of Female Space : Resistance And Creation In Tsitsi Dangarembga’S Nervous Conditions And She No Longer Weeps, Diana Mckenna
Theses, Dissertations and Culminating Projects
In this paper I explore how with Nervous Conditions (1988) and She No Longer Weeps (1987), Zimbabwean author Tsitsi Dangarembga creates alternative literary forms in her representation of architectural, bodily and narrative spaces and their relationship to female identities. These physical spaces the women characters inhabit, resist and in which they assert their voices must be cleared of patriarchal control in order for female-centered space to be produced. Moreover, the creation of a new speech paradigm, one that affirms the female voice, is crucial to the journey towards female autonomy. Inasmuch as Dangarembga explores the ways in which physical spaces …
