The Good, The Bad, And The Bluths: Arrested Development As A Modern Allegory, Thomas Felty Oct 2012

The Good, The Bad, And The Bluths: Arrested Development As A Modern Allegory, Thomas Felty

Proceedings of the New York State Communication Association

Allegroies are often seen as an archiac form of narrative expression. Yet the the basic concepts about human morality remain universal sources of artistic inspiratiojn thousands of years later. This piece gives a brief history of allegorical storytelling from the Middle Ages up through the Twentienth Century focusing on the Seven Deadly Sins. The second half of the piece gives an in depth analysis of the television program, Arrested Development, assigning each character a feature found with the Seven Deadly Sins often found in traditonal allegorical storytelling. The piece concludes with an explanation of why such methods are still …

Tony Award-Winning Musical “The Drowsy Chaperone” Performed At Lawrence University, Lawrence University Oct 2012

Tony Award-Winning Musical “The Drowsy Chaperone” Performed At Lawrence University, Lawrence University

Press Releases

Four performances of Lawrence University’s production of the Tony Award-winning musical “The Drowsy Chaperone” will be staged Oct. 25-27 in Stansbury Theatre of the Music-Drama Center.

A “musical within a comedy,” “The Drowsy Chaperone” parodies 1920s musicals with a show-within-a-show plot device. The show begins in the apartment of a character known only to the audience as Man in Chair, an agoraphobic Broadway fanatic who has acquired a recording of a fictional 1928 musical titled “The Drowsy Chaperone.” As he listens to the record, the musical’s characters appear in his apartment to tell the farcical story of fiancés Janet Van …

Multicultural Cities, Communication And Transportation Improvements. An Empirical Analysis For Italy, Cristina Cattaneo Oct 2012

Multicultural Cities, Communication And Transportation Improvements. An Empirical Analysis For Italy, Cristina Cattaneo

Fondazione Eni Enrico Mattei Working Papers

The paper investigates the determinants of cosmopolitan cities. The hypothesis tested empirically is whether gradual improvements in distant communication boost the generation of ethnically heterogeneous cities. Consequently to easier communication, movers increasingly rely on an enlarged community for identity transmission, rather than on localized peer effects of segregated environment. The empirical estimation provides support to the prediction of the model. A better access to the airports as well as improvements in internet communications are found to increase city ethnic diversity.

Sunvelope: A Nevada Company Revolutionizes Solar Hot Water Collectors, Nevada Institute For Renewable Energy Commercialization (Nirec) Oct 2012

Sunvelope: A Nevada Company Revolutionizes Solar Hot Water Collectors, Nevada Institute For Renewable Energy Commercialization (Nirec)

Nevada Newsflash

Solar hot water is just not sexy to the general public—and that’s created a challenge for Pete Mokler, director of marketing at Sunvelope Solar. “Our technology can deliver more energy units per dollar invested—whether counted in therms, BTUs, or kilowatt hours—than photovoltaic, wind, geothermal and biomass,” says Mokler, “but you say ‘solar hot water’ and people yawn.”

Long-Lived Electron Spins In A Modulation Doped (100) Gaas Quantum Well, John S. Colton, D. Meyer, K Clark, D. Craft, J. Cutler, T. Park, P. White Oct 2012

Long-Lived Electron Spins In A Modulation Doped (100) Gaas Quantum Well, John S. Colton, D. Meyer, K Clark, D. Craft, J. Cutler, T. Park, P. White

Faculty Publications

We have measured T1 spin lifetimes of a 14 nm modulation-doped (100) GaAs quantum well using a time-resolved pump-probe Kerr rotation technique. The quantum well was selected by tuning the wavelength of the probe laser. T1 lifetimes in excess of 1 Us were measured at 1.5 K and 5.5 T, exceeding the typical T2 lifetimes that have been measured in GaAs and II-VI quantum wells by orders of magnitude. We observed effects from nuclear polarization, which were largely removable by simultaneous nuclear magnetic resonance, along with two distinct lifetimes under some conditions that likely result from probing two differently localized …

Ensure: A Time Sensitive Transport Protocol To Achieve Reliability Over Wireless In Petrochemical Plants, Leigh Sheneman Oct 2012

Ensure: A Time Sensitive Transport Protocol To Achieve Reliability Over Wireless In Petrochemical Plants, Leigh Sheneman

Computer Science Theses

As society becomes more reliant on the resources extracted in petroleum refinement the production demand for petrochemical plants increases. A key element is producing efficiently while maintaining safety through constant monitoring of equipment feedback. Currently, temperature and flow sensors are deployed at various points of production and 10/100 Ethernet cable is installed to connect them to a master control unit. This comes at a great monetary cost, not only at the time of implementation but also when repairs are required. The capability to provide plant wide wireless networks would both decrease investment cost and downtime needed for repairs. However, the …

Two-Photon Time-Lapse Microscopy Of Bodipy-Cholesterol Reveals Anomalous Sterol Diffusion In Chinese Hamster Ovary Cells, Frederik W. Lund, Michael A. Lomholt, Lukasz M. Solanko, Robert Bittman, Daniel Wüstner Oct 2012

Two-Photon Time-Lapse Microscopy Of Bodipy-Cholesterol Reveals Anomalous Sterol Diffusion In Chinese Hamster Ovary Cells, Frederik W. Lund, Michael A. Lomholt, Lukasz M. Solanko, Robert Bittman, Daniel Wüstner

Publications and Research

Background Cholesterol is an important membrane component, but our knowledge about its transport in cells is sparse. Previous imaging studies using dehydroergosterol (DHE), an intrinsically fluorescent sterol from yeast, have established that vesicular and non-vesicular transport modes contribute to sterol trafficking from the plasma membrane. Significant photobleaching, however, limits the possibilities for in-depth analysis of sterol dynamics using DHE. Co-trafficking studies with DHE and the recently introduced fluorescent cholesterol analog BODIPY-cholesterol (BChol) suggested that the latter probe has utility for prolonged live-cell imaging of sterol transport. Results We found that BChol is very photostable under two-photon (2P)-excitation allowing the acquisition …
