Leisure In The Life Of The 21st Century Black Church: Re-Thinking The Gift, Steven N. Waller Ph.D.

Movement and Being: The Journal of the Christian Society for Kinesiology, Leisure and Sports Studies

Scholarship devoted to examining the role that leisure plays in the life of the Black Church is lacking. Leisure is an important facet of congregational life in African American churches and permeates congregational dynamics on multiple levels. The purpose of this essay is to examine leisure in the life of the Black Church and posit how a healthy, theologically accurate understanding of the value of leisure can help with health and wellness promotion, community-economic development and church growth. The Black Church is defined as the eight historically Black denominations: African Methodist Episcopal, African Methodist Episcopal Zion, Christian Methodist Episcopal, Church …

Using The Prevent-Teach-Reinforce Model With Families Of Children With Autism, Kacie M. Sears

USF Tampa Graduate Theses and Dissertations

This study involved families of young children with autism spectrum disorders to

examine the feasibility of implementing an adapted version of the school-based Prevent-Teach-

Reinforce (PTR) model. This research included two families who developed and implemented the

intervention for their children in collaboration with the researcher. The PTR manual was modified

for use in a family context. The PTR intervention was tested using a multiple baseline design

across routines. Procedural fidelity was assessed during training and coaching, as well as family

implementation fidelity and social validity. To examine the potential efficacy of the adapted PTR

intervention, the children’s target problem …

Detecting Massive Gravitons Using Pulsar Timing Arrays, Kejia Lee, F. A. Jenet, Richard H. Price, Norbert Wex, Michael Kramer

Physics & Astronomy Faculty Publications

At the limit of weak static fields, general relativity becomes Newtonian gravity with a potential field that falls off as inverse distance rather than a theory of Yukawa-type fields with a finite range. General relativity also predicts that the speed of disturbances of its waves is c, the vacuum light speed, and is non-dispersive. For these reasons, the graviton, the boson for general relativity, can be considered to be massless. Massive gravitons, however, are features of some alternatives to general relativity. This has motivated experiments and observations that, so far, have been consistent with the zero-mass graviton of general relativity, …

Ultra-Compact Dwarfs In The Core Of The Coma Cluster, Juan P. Madrid, Alister W. Graham, William E. Harris, Paul Goudfrooij, Duncan A. Forbes, David Carter, John P. Blakeslee, Lee R. Spitler, Henry C. Ferguson

Physics & Astronomy Faculty Publications

We have discovered both a red and a blue subpopulation of ultra-compact dwarf (UCD) galaxy candidates in the Coma galaxy cluster. We analyzed deep F475W (Sloan g) and F814W (I) Hubble Space Telescope images obtained with the Advanced Camera for Surveys Wide Field Channel as part of the Coma Cluster Treasury Survey and have fitted the light profiles of similar to 5000 point-like sources in the vicinity of NGC 4874, one of the two central dominant galaxies of the Coma Cluster. Although almost all of these sources are globular clusters that remain unresolved, we found that 52 objects have effective …

Perceptions Of A Profession: Librarians And Stereotypes In Online Videos, Ramirose Ilene Attebury

Library Philosophy and Practice (e-journal)

In an article investigating how librarians are depicted in the mass media, Maura Seale identifies five categories into which the majority of representations fall: the old maid, the policeman, the parody, the inept librarian, and the hero/ine. Unlike prior representations of librarians in mass media, however, which have been largely controlled by non-librarians, the increased opportunities for amateur video distribution on sites like YouTube have allowed librarians themselves to decide how they are portrayed. This article considers online videos in the context of theories about stereotypes, and it discusses the effects of parody in shaping perceptions of the librarian profession. …

An Artistic Horizon: Content Analysis Of Caricatures With Library And Information Science Themes, Alireza Isfanyari-Moghaddam, Vahideh Kashi-Nahanji

Library Philosophy and Practice (e-journal)

This research analyzes caricatures related to Library and Information Science (LIS), to identify LIS aspects in order to recognize valid criticisms and offer recommendations. Two hundred fifty cartoons and caricatures relating to the topics "book", "library", and "LIS" were gathered and analyzed by means of content analysis. The images were categorized into eight groups for analysis.

Rotation Periods Of Exoplanet Host Stars, E. K. Simpson, Sallie L. Baliunas, Gregory W. Henry, Christopher A. Watson

Information Systems and Engineering Management Research Publications

The stellar rotation periods of 10 exoplanet host stars have been determined using newly analysed Ca ii H&K flux records from the Mount Wilson Observatory and Strömgren b, y photometric measurements from Tennessee State University's automatic photometric telescopes at the Fairborn Observatory. Five of the rotation periods have not previously been reported, with that of HD 130322 very strongly detected at Prot= 26.1 ± 3.5 d. The rotation periods of five other stars have been updated using new data. We use the rotation periods to derive the line-of-sight inclinations of the stellar rotation axes, which may be used to probe …

Automatic Classification Of Article Errors In L2 Written English, Aliva M. Pradhan, Aparna S. Varde, Jing Peng, Eileen M. Fitzpatrick

Department of Computer Science Faculty Scholarship and Creative Works

This paper presents an approach to the automatic classification of article errors in non-native (L2) English writing, using data chosen from the MELD corpus that was purposely selected to contain only cases with article errors. We report on two experiments on the data: one to assess the performance of different machine learning algorithms in predicting correct article usage, and the other to determine the feasibility of using the MELD data to identify which linguistic properties of the noun phrase containing the article are the most salient with respect to the classification of errors in article usage.

Individual Muscle Contributions To The Axial Knee Joint Contact Force During Normal Walking, Kotaro Sasaki, Richard R. Neptune

Mechanical and Biomedical Engineering Faculty Publications and Presentations

Muscles are significant contributors to the high joint forces developed in the knee during human walking. Not only do muscles contribute to the knee joint forces by acting to compress the joint, but they also develop joint forces indirectly through their contributions to the ground reaction forces via dynamic coupling. Thus, muscles can have significant contributions to forces at joints they do not span. However, few studies have investigated how the major lower-limb muscles contribute to the knee joint contact forces during walking. The goal of this study was to use a muscle-actuated forward dynamics simulation of walking to identify …

Virtual Blasting System For Removal Of Coating And/Or Rust From A Virtual Surface, Michael Bolick, Chris Lampe, Jason Ebensberger, Jeremiah Treloar, Rick Klein, Eric Conrad Peterson, Chad Jason Zalkin

Patents (University of Northern Iowa)

A computer simulation and virtual reality system simulates the use of a blasting nozzle to remove one or more coatings and/or rust from a virtual surface. The user operates an electronic controller in the form of a blasting nozzle that outputs a signal indicating whether the blasting nozzle controller is in an "on" position or in an "off" position. The system also has a motion tracking system that tracks the position and orientation of the blasting nozzle controller with respect to the virtual surface defined on the display screen. Simulation software in a computer generates virtual blast pattern data, and …
