Family Affairs Newsletter 2012-06-15, Zack Paakkonen

Family Affairs newsletter (2004-2016)

FAMILY AFFAIRS was a free, twice-a-month, social activities newsletter for the GLBTQI (gay/lesbian/bisexual/trans/queer/intersex) community, sent out around the 1st and 15th of each month. It covered the State of Maine only. The list was begun and maintained for many years by Jean Vermette in Bangor, and later operated by Zack Paakkonen of Portland. Over the years it evolved from a social activities newsletter into a business directory, classified ad service, and community bulletin board.

On The Automatic Recognition Of Human Activities Using Heterogeneous Wearable Sensors, Oscar David Lara Yejas

USF Tampa Graduate Theses and Dissertations

Delivering accurate and opportune information on people's activities and behaviors has become one of the most important tasks within pervasive computing. Its wide spectrum of potential applications in medical, entertainment, and tactical scenarios, motivates further

research and development of new strategies to improve accuracy, pervasiveness, and eciency.

A Location-Aware Architecture Supporting Intelligent Real-Time Mobile Applications, Sean J. Barbeau

USF Tampa Graduate Theses and Dissertations

This dissertation presents LAISYC, a modular location-aware architecture for intelligent real-time mobile applications that is fully-implementable by third party mobile app developers and supports high-precision and high-accuracy positioning systems such as GPS.

香港現代主義文學與思潮 : 以「香港現代文學美術協會」為視點, Lei Zheng

Lingnan Theses

在為冷戰陰雲籠罩的上世紀五、六十年代，香港因特殊的殖民政策而游離於中國大陸與台灣的威權政治之外，其文學藝術紮根的土壤可謂貧瘠卻又豐富。放逐於政治意識形態邊緣的香港文學，不但兀自生長出不同於中國現代文學敘事傳統的城市文學，更在此一失落與追尋中逐漸完成一套極富特色的文學/ 藝術敘述模式。而這套敘述模式的起點，正始於五、六十年代風行一時的現代主義思潮與文學實踐。

以香港現代文學美術協會為視點，不只是以該社團為一文學場域探索其運作與香港現代主義文學、思潮發生、發展之關係，更旨在以這一社團整體訴求為經，以每個個體於社團活動前後之不同境遇、經歷及創作為緯，編織第一代本土作家以來，「現代主義」與香港文學建構的譜系。在釐清協會成員的早期活動、人事往來和知識結構之後，本文先以六十年代現代主義運動最為矚目的成就——理論批評入手，試從香港的報刊生態闡釋這一批評論在文學理論貢獻之外更為重要的社會、文化及文體意義，並以存在主義思潮為例深入探討此類評論的傳播效果。後半部分則由具體文本入手，包括各種文體的文學及繪畫作品。 首先探討「香港現代主義文學」與都市文化的密切關係，在逐漸本土化的敘述中「東方」的意義及其表現，以及詩與畫之間的跨媒介創作的特點。而後進一 步以崑南及蔡炎培的創作為對象縷析這一代作家的浪漫精神及其時代意義。
