Spray Deposition Of Biomolecular Thin Films, Mihir K. Rayan

USF Tampa Graduate Theses and Dissertations

In this paper, a parametric study of the airbrush deposition technique was investigated for the deposition biomolecular thin films. The airbrush parameters under investigation were intake valve opening, carrier gas pressure, distance between the airbrush and substrate, concentration of solution, vapor pressure of solvent, and hydrophobic/hydrophilic substrate surface. This study was assessed through the characterization of dried droplet residues of Bovine Serum Albumin (BSA) and of complete films of BSA by means of scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and atomic force microscopy (AFM). It was determined that droplet size was mainly affected by carrier gas pressure and vapor pressure. The parameters …

Reseña De Familia: El Gran Teatro Del Hogar, Oscar Pereira Zazo

Spanish Language and Literature Papers

Foto. Una familia al completo mira sonriente hacia la cámara que sostiene una mujer que aparece reflejada en un espejo que ocupa su espacio como si fuera un miembro más de la familia. El grupo familiar está compuesto por una abuela de pelo blanco, tres jóvenes, uno de ellos todavía muy crío, y dos parejas de mediana edad, tal vez padres de los anteriores. Ellas parecen arregladas para alguna ocasión. De ellos resalta la posición central del más corpulento de los dos. Sin duda alguna, se trata de una fotografía de familia presentada primero en plano general y medios planos …

Reseña De Murió Hace Quince Años: Los Comunistas Y La Madre Patria, Oscar Pereira Zazo

Spanish Language and Literature Papers

Segundo año de la Guerra Civil: 1937. Ante la inminencia de la caída de Bilbao, malvados comunistas se dedican a secuestrar niños inocentes por calles y plazuelas para someterlos a una rigurosa dieta ideológica en la Unión Soviética. Diego Acuña es uno de esos niños. Además, es el único que se resiste y trata de huir, aunque infructuosamente. Pero nadie puede impedir que su desgarrada llamada atraviese como un trueno el ancho firmamento vascongado: “Padre, no quiero ir.”

Reseña De El Espíritu De La Colmena: Restauración Política Y Reconstrucción Familiar, Oscar Pereira Zazo

Spanish Language and Literature Papers

Érase una vez, hacia 1940, en un lugar de la meseta castellana; Hoyuelos, para ser exacto. Un camión se acerca al pueblo y pronto los niños corren detrás de él, alegres y contentos como si llegaran los reyes magos. Pero no, lo que ha llegado es el cine. La pregonera informa que por la tarde se pasará en el edificio del Ayuntamiento una película, El doctor Frankenstein (Whale, 1931). ¿Precio de la entrada?: una peseta los mayores, dos reales los menores.

The Great Diversion

China Beat Blog: Archive 2008-2012

Allegations about money-laundering by former President Chen Shui-bian, his relatives, and his acquaintances have been front page news for three weeks, and, on some TV stations, occupy the first 30-40 minutes of the news hour. As might be imagined, this is also a hot topic on the political talk shows, day after day after day. New reports continue to surface about alleged improprieties, ranging from misusing government funds, to opening shady accounts in Swiss banks and tax havens like Liechtenstein and Aruba, to buying mansions and other properties in the U.S. The media hounds are now hot on the chase …

1) Head over to Beijing Sounds for a thoroughly enlightening and entertaining piece by Randy Alexander on spoken Chinglish–and particularly the sort that results from transcribing English using Chinese characters (yep, you read correctly–follow the link for images of the texts that teach using this method and even the amazing audio clips of what English spoken this way sounds like).

Non-Profit Health Care Services Marketing: Persuasive Messages Based On Multidimensional Concept Mapping And Direct Magnitude Estimation, Michael L. Hall

Using market respondents’ thinking about product attributes combined with distance measurement between pairs of product attributes, a conceptual marketing map is presented and applied to advertising, message …

Faking Heaven: The Utopian Will To Order In China, Timothy S. Oakes

China Beat Blog: Archive 2008-2012

Now that the 2008 Olympics have come and gone, Beijing can perhaps breathe a sigh of relief that after two weeks of intensive scrutiny, the most embarrassing thing the foreign media could come up with during the Games was that some of the events in the spectacular opening ceremony were faked. First, we learned that 9-year old Lin Miaoke was not in fact singing a revised “Song of the Motherland” at all, but was lip-synching the voice of the less photogenic Yang Peiyi (see Geremie Barmé’s “Painting Over Mao”). Then, we learned that at least some of thefirework footprints leading …
