Sicilian Instrumental Music During the Ottocento: A Rediscovery of Forgotten Repertoire for Piano
Creators: name: Snow, Alison C.
Publisher: name: Utah State University
Year: 2014

description: During the Italian Ottocento, purely instrumental genres were overshadowed by opera and, as a result, have been largely forgotten today both within and without Italy. This project will explore this lacuna through a case study drawn from the piano music of three Sicilian composers: Ga spare Tamburello, Giuseppe Perrotta and Gaetano lmpallomeni. By evaluating how their music embodies Ottocento culture, as well as its abstract musical content, performers will show that this neglected repertoire is worthy of repeated contemporary revival. To accomplish this, I will be collaborating with professional Italian musicians Davide Macaluso and Marco Zafarana to prepare and present lecture-recitals on March 24th, 2014 at St. John's Episcopal Church, March 25th, 2014 in the Music Department, and at a concert in Salt Lake City on March 28th, 2014 in the Assembly Hall. I will also present this research at the Honors Student Showcase on April 11th, 2014 at the Merrill-Cazier Library.

description: Entanglement production in coupled chaotic systems is studied with the help of kicked tops. Deriving the correct classical map, we have used the reduced Husimi function, the Husimi function of the reduced density matrix, to visualize the possible behaviors of a wavepacket. We have studied a phase space based measure of the complexity of a state and used random matrix theory (RMT) to model the strongly chaotic cases. Extensive numerical studies have been done for the entanglement production in coupled kicked tops corresponding to different underlying classical dynamics and different coupling strengths. An approximate formula, based on RMT, is derived for the entanglement production in coupled strongly chaotic systems. This formula, applicable for arbitrary coupling strengths and also valid for long time, complements and extends significantly recent perturbation theories for strongly chaotic weakly coupled systems.

description: Within cells, vesicles and proteins are actively transported several micrometers along the cytoskeletal filaments. The transport along microtubules is propelled by dynein and kinesin motors, which carry the cargo in opposite directions. Bidirectional intracellular transport is performed with great efficiency, even under strong confinement, as for example in the axon. For this kind of transport system, one would expect generically cluster formation. In this work, we discuss the effect of the recently observed self-enhanced binding-affinity along the kinesin trajectories on the MT. We introduce a stochastic lattice-gas model, where the enhanced binding affinity is realized via a floor-field. From Monte Carlo simulations and a mean-field analysis we show that this mechanism can lead to self-organized symmetry-breaking and lane-formation which indeed leads to efficient bidirectional transport in narrow environments.

Moore und Torfe in der Bodenkunde: neuere Aspekte
Peatlands and peats in soil science: recent aspects

Year: 1990

description: Im Hinblick auf die Moore und ihre bodenkundliche Kartierung sind in der letzten (3.) Auflage der Bodenkundlichen Kartieranleitung noch nicht alle bodensystematischen und Ansprache-Probleme zufriedenstellend gelöst. Einer erneuten Diskussion bedürfen (1.) die Berücksichtigung pedogener Profildifferenzierungen in unentwässerten und vor allem in entwässerten (bis degradierten) Mooren sowie (2.) die Frage der Aufgliederung von Mooren bzw. Torfen nach ihrer Azidität (und/oder Trophie), dieses nicht zuletzt hinsichtlich der Praktikabilität ihrer Ansprache bei Kartierungen. An Hand eigener Erfahrungen und neuerer Literatur wird zu diesen Problemkreisen Stellung genommen, und es wird die Richtung angedeutet, in der die Lösungen gesucht werden müssen. Die im Beitrag erörterten Tatsachen und Gesichtspunkte – z.T. schon vor längerer Zeit zusammengestellt – haben Ausgangspunkte für Diskussionen geliefert, die im Hinblick auf eine Neufassung der Moorkapitel der Bodenkundlichen Kartieranleitung sowie der zugrunde liegenden Bodensystematik seit 1988 stattgefunden haben und deren Ergebnisse demnächst veröffentlicht werden sollen.
description: In the third edition of the German Soil Survey Manual (Bodenkundliche Kartieranleitung, 1982) some problems concerning peatlands and peatland mapping have not been resolved sufficiently. This applies to peat type identi-fication and to several aspects of general peatland and peat classification. There are two main problems which need new discussions: (1) the variety in profiles, caused by extremely differing pedogenous processes, of virgin and especially of drained mires, (2) the classification of mires or peats in respect to their acidity or trophic conditions considering above all the possibilities to identify the types under field conditions in soil mappings. These problems are reviewed on the basis of recent literature and in the light of the author’s own experience, and directions of possible solutions are suggested. The quoted facts, most of which were presented some time ago, yielded the starting point for discussions in the DGMT (German Peat Science Society) on a revised text of the mire and peat sections of the Soil Survey Manual and their basic soil classification, the results of which will be published in the near future.

Die Art ist in ganz Finnland verbreitet und im nördlichen Europa viel häufiger als in Mitteleuropa. Die bei einigen der obigen Exemplare angegebene Flugzeit lag zwischen dem 7. Juni und dem 7. Juli.
 Einen Teil der Exemplare hat HELLÉN als E. cerinops und einen anderen Teil als Anomalon rufum HABERMEHL angesehen. Der letztgenannte Name ist ein Synonym von Barylypa propugnator var. 2.
 Bisher waren keine Wirte von E. varicornis bekannt. Unter dem  aus Kuusamo (leg. G. FABRICIUS) steckt die Puppenhülle von Trichiura crataegi (LINNAEUS, 1758). Allerdings konnte die Kopfkapsel des letzten Larvenstadiums des Parasitoiden in ihr nicht gefunden werden. Da ich aber vor Jahren in einer von E. varicornis verlassenen Trichiura -Puppe aus Spanien im Natural History Museum London die Kopfkapsel finden konnte, erscheint mir der Wirtsstatus von T. crataegi für das finnische Tier plausibel.
 Bei einem  aus Espoo („leg. E. Laasonen 1987 e.l. Synanthedon flaviventris “ (STAUDINGER, 1883) ist die Wirtsangabe dagegen falsch, weil Erigorgus -Arten mit ihrem kurzen Legebohrer endophytisch lebende Raupen nicht erreichen können. Dementsprechend haben auch VUOLA & KORPELA (1980) bei ihren Untersuchungen zur Biologie von. S. flaviventris in Finnland unter den Parasitoiden des Glasflüglers keinerlei Anomaloninae gefunden.

description: The Progressive Era (1890-1920) marks a unique period of social change in American history not only because of reformists' muckraking attacks against political machines and other corrupt social practices, but also because gender permeated every aspect of reform. The doctrine of separate spheres, which had been such a mainstay of Industrial Revolution-era America, was blurring rapidly, as many reformists, like suffragists, pressed for greater gender equality. However, an extremely fascinating characteristic of this period that is often overlooked is the inevitable way in which the performance of gender became essential for reformists to be successful.

description: Es wird über eine 1993 durchgeführte Diskussionsveranstaltung zum Thema einer bundeseinheitlichen Ansprache und Kartierung von Mooren berichtet. Ein wichtiges Ziel der Diskussionen (sowie einiger im Anschluß an die Veranstaltung verfaßter schriftlicher Exposes) war die Suche nach Möglichkeiten einer Einpassung wesentlicher Teile des Moorkartierungs-Standards TGL 24300/04 der früheren DDR in die zur Zeit vorbereitete 4. Auflage der Bodenkundlichen Kartieranleitung der Geologischen Landesämter. Eine inhaltliche Übernahme war für eine Reihe von Punkten recht gut möglich: andere jedoch erwiesen sich als weitgehend inkompatibel mit den derzeitigen Konzepten für die Neuauflage der Kartieranleitung, die nunmehr sehr bald herausgebracht werden soll. Hierbei handelt es sich insbesondere um die bodensystematische Einstufung der durch entwässerungs- und nutzungsbedingte Einflüsse pedologisch besonders stark veränderten Niedermoorböden sowie um die Gliederung und Terminologie subfossiler mineralischer bis ± organischer limnischer Sedimente. Über die hiermit zusammenhängenden Probleme und einige in Frage kommende Lösungsmöglichkeiten wird ausführlich berichtet. Es ist zu hoffen, daß durch Fortsetzung der Diskussion bald eine einhellige Auffassung der deutschen Moor- und Torfspezialisten erarbeitet werden kann.
description: Report is given on a discussion meeting held in 1993 on German standards for peatland mapping and matters connected with them. One of the significant aims of the discussion (and of papers put forward later on, too) was to look for possibilities to fit several essential parts of the peatland standard TGL 24300/04 of the former German Democratic Republic into the next (4th) edition of the German Soil Mapping Instruction being in preparation now. This proved to be fairly well possible for some of the topics of the TGL-standard; others, however, tourned out to be largely incompatible with the present concepts of the new edition of the Soil Mapping Instruction, the completion of which is planned to be finished in near future. The main points in question so far were the pedological classification of peat soils heavily degraded by drainage and agricultural utilization, and the classification and terminology of mineral to i organic subfossil lacustrine sediments. Problems related to that and possibilities of solution are reported. The author is hoping that the German peat experts, in continuating the discussion of these problems, achieve unanimous solutions in near future.

description: Following Rosen's quantization rules, two of the Authors (CC and FF) recently described the Schwarzschild black hole (BH) formed after the gravitational collapse of a pressureless "star of dust" in terms of a "gravitational hydrogen atom". Here we generalize this approach to the gravitational collapse of a charged object, namely, to the geometry of a Reissner-Nordstrom BH (RNBH) and calculate the gravitational potential, the Schrödinger equation and the exact solutions of the energy levels of the gravitational collapse. By using the concept of BH effective state, previously introduced by one of us (CC), we describe the quantum gravitational potential, the mass spectrum and the energy spectrum for the extremal RNBH. The area spectrum derived from the mass spectrum finds agreement with a previous result by Bekenstein. The stability of these solutions, described with the Majorana approach to the Archaic Universe scenario, show the existence of oscillatory regimes or exponential damping for the evolution of a small perturbation from a stable state.

description: We analyze the phases of an S=1/2 spin model on a lattice of coupled tetrahedra. The presence of both Heisenberg and antisymmetric, Dzyaloshinsky-Moriya interactions can lead to two types of symmetry-broken states: non-magnetic dimer order and, unexpectedly, exotic 4 sub-lattice weak antiferromagnetic order - a state with a generically small ordered moment and non-zero chirality. External magnetic field also induces weak antiferromagnetism co-existing with strong dimer correlations in the ground state. These states are formed as a result of broken Ising symmetries and exhibit a number of unusual properties.

description: Non-thermal particles and high-energy radiation can play a role in the dynamical processes in star-forming regions and provide an important piece of the multiwavelength observational picture of their structure and components. Powerful stellar winds and supernovae in compact clusters of massive stars and OB associations are known to be favourable sites of high-energy particle acceleration and sources of non-thermal radiation and neutrinos. Namely, young massive stellar clusters are likely sources of the PeV (petaelectronvolt) regime cosmic rays (CRs). They can also be responsible for the cosmic ray composition, e.g., 22Ne/20Ne anomalous isotopic ratio in CRs. Efficient particle acceleration can be accompanied by super-adiabatic amplification of the fluctuating magnetic fields in the systems converting a part of kinetic power of the winds and supernovae into the magnetic energy through the CR-driven instabilities. The escape and CR propagation in the vicinity of the sources are affected by the non-linear CR feedback. These effects are expected to be important in starburst galaxies, which produce high-energy neutrinos and gamma-rays. We give a brief review of the theoretical models and observational data on high-energy particle acceleration and their radiation in star-forming regions with young stellar population.

description: In this work, we calculate the charmonium spectrum and strong decay widths of cc states. The calculations are performed using the quark potential model with which incorporates the relativistic effects. The resulting cc spectrum exhibits a good agreement with experimental data. The open flavor strong decay widths are calculated employing the 3P0 model. We adopt two choices of wave functions to determine the observables: the first involves the utilization of realistic wave functions obtained by solving relativistic Schrodinger equation, while the second employs Simple harmonic oscillator (SHO) wave functions whose parameters are fitted to the realistic wave functions. We find that the decay widths of higher charmonia states above the threshold value of open charm mesons are well described with these wave functions. We provide a comprehensive analysis of the strong decay widths and assigned specific charmonium states: X(3940) is assigned to the ηc(3S) state, Y (4660) to the ψ(5S) state, X(3915) to the \c{hi}0(2P) state, Zc(3900) to the hc(2P) state, X(4350) to the \c{hi}2(3P) state, and X(3842) to the ψ3(1D) state. We also compare our results with available experimental data and theoretical predictions of other models.
Institutional Constraints Limiting Social Services for Immigrants

description: This study advances the literature by identifying the factors that constrain the resource provision activities of social service agencies for immigrants. We consider whether and how coercive, mimetic and normative constraints shape organizational practices in this field. Drawing on twenty-five in-depth interviews with social service providers in Utah, we find that despite providers' commitment to serving immigrants, organizations remain significantly constrained due primarily to external coercive constraints including restrictive state laws and increasing competition over limited funding. We conclude by exploring the implications of our findings for policy and practice.
Perception of Real and Perceived Anger in Various Races
Creators: name: Hymas, Mikelle
Publisher: name: Utah State University
Year: 2016

description:
Research of emotional expressions has suggested that facial expressions of emotions are universal between cultures (Ekman, 1989). However, because of in-group biases, misidentification of emotions in other races can predictably occur. The misidentification of facial expressions of emotions can lead to predictable and specific racial biases. One important instance of this is that groups of White individuals often make the error of perceiving anger in an African American who is actually experiencing fear. This has important implications of accidental discrimination. The current study aimed to determine whether a brief training in accurate identification of various facial expressions would improve accuracy in identifying expressions between races and decreasing the anger-race bias in African Americans. A total of X students from two upper-division social work classes participated in both baseline and post surveys at the beginning and end of a single class period. The experimental group received a seven-minute training on accurately identifying traits of both fear and anger. Results indicate that the training was generally effective in increasing accuracy of identifying facial expression of fear and anger. Results also indicate that training resulted in a lower rate of misidentified anger or fear, including across races. Based on the results, it can be concluded that a training in the accurate identification of emotions may be beneficial to decreasing the anger-race bias against African American individuals.

Personal Vacuum Assisted Climber
Creators: name: Whittle, Jacob Monroe
Publisher: name: Utah State University
Year: 2014

description: The Personal Vacuum Assisted Climber (PVAC) system built in 2012 by the Ascending Aggies at Utah State University which was designed using vacuum motors to provide suction to pads to allow the user to climb various surfaces, needs to be further developed before being fully marketable. The current system does not have a user-friendly interface and is very loud (approx. 90 dB). These issues were addressed to answer the following question: how can the current PV AC system be optimized to decrease noise and produce a user friendly interface while maintaining current run time? To obtain the sound reduction desired it was decided to surround the motors with a hard plastic polystyrene case created by a vacuum forming process and then lined with sound-reducing convoluted foam. The motor exhaust was channeled through a single muffler out of the bottom of the case. This resulted in a sound reduction of over 20 decibels. The power system was improved with a new choice of 36 volt motors which could each be run off of only four batteries or an AC power supply through an inverter. The batterie s used in this system increased run time by 50% and decreased the overall weight of the previous system by 8 lbs. This choice of motors was found to supply in excess the needed suction to support a 300 lb. person. A Pulse Width modulator was also installed to provide a control on Voltage output of the batteries to optimize the run time. A pressure gauge and Voltmeter were installed to provide a user interface with a display on the pads of the system showing the remaining battery voltage and pad suction pressure.

description: The superconductor to insulator transition is studied in a self-charging model for a ladder of Josephson-junctions in presence of an external magnetic field. Path integral Monte Carlo simulations of the equivalent (1+1)-dimensional classical model are used to study the phase diagram and critical behavior. In addition to a superconducting (vortex-free) phase, a vortex phase can also occur for increasing magnetic field and small charging energy. It is found that an intervening insulating phase separates the superconducting from the vortex phases. Surprisingly, a finite-size scaling analysis shows that the field-induced superconducting to insulator transition is in the KT universality class even tough the external field breaks time-reversal symmetry.

It is found that the resistance of 45 degree (100)/(110) junctions decreases linearly by a factor of four when their temperature is increased from 100 K to 300 K. At the superconducting transition temperature Tc the grain boundary resistance of the normal state and of the superconducting state extrapolate to the same value.

description: Exceptional points(EPs), branch points of complex energy surfaces at which eigenvalues and eigenvectors coalesce, are ubiquitous in non-Hermitian systems. Many novel properties and applications have been proposed around the EPs. One of the important applications is to enhance the detection sensitivity. However, due to the lack of single-handed superchiral fields, all of the proposed EP-based sensing mechanisms are only useful for the non-chiral discrimination. Here, we propose theoretically and demonstrate experimentally a new type of EP, which is a called radiation vector EP, to fulfill the homogeneous superchiral fields for chiral sensing. This type of EP is realized by suitably tuning the coupling strength and radiation losses for a pair of orthogonal polarization modes in the photonic crystal slab. Based on the unique modal-coupling property at the vector EP, we demonstrate that the uniform superchiral fields can be generated with two beams of lights illuminating on the photonic crystal slab from opposite directions. Thus, the designed photonic crystal slab, which supports the vector EP, can be used to perform surface-enhanced chiral detection. Our findings provide a new strategy for ultrasensitive characterization and quantification of molecular chirality, a key aspect for various bioscience and biomedicine applications.

description: Dark matter could take the form of dark massive compact halo objects (dMACHOs); i.e., composite objects that are made up of dark-sector elementary particles, that could have a macroscopic mass from the Planck scale to above the solar mass scale, and that also admit a wide range of energy densities and sizes. Concentrating on the gravitational interaction of dMACHOs with visible matter, we map out the mass-radius parameter space that is consistent with gravitational lensing experiments, as well as anisotropies of the cosmic microwave background (CMB) based on the spherical accretion of matter onto a dMACHO in the hydrostatic approximation. For dMACHOs with a uniform-density mass profile and total mass in the range of $\sim 10^{-12} - 10\,M_\odot$, we find that a dMACHO could explain 100% of the dark matter if its radius is above $\approx 3$ times the Einstein radius of the lensing system. For a larger mass above $10\,M_\odot$, a dMACHO with radius above $\sim 1 \times 10^8 \mbox{cm} \times(M/100\,M_\odot)^{9/2}$ is consistent with CMB observables. For a lighter dMACHO with mass below $\sim 10^{-12}\,M_\odot$, there still is not a good experimental probe. Finally, we point out that heavier dMACHOs with masses $\sim 0.1\,M_\odot$ may be observed by X-ray and optical telescopes if they reside at rest in a large molecular cloud, nearby to our solar system, and accrete ordinary matter to emit photons.

An Overview of Batrachochytrium dendrobatidis in Utah, With a Focus on Boreal Toads and Their Changing Conservation Status
Creators: name: Beirne, Samantha A.
Publisher: name: Utah State University
Year: 2015

description: The Boreal Toad (Anaxyrus boreas) has disappeared from a large portion of its range in southern Utah and it has been questioned whether Batrachochytrium dendrobatidis (Bd, also known as chytrid) has played a role in its disappearance. The role of chytrid in range contraction of Boreal Toads and other amphibians in Utah is unknown. The primary objective of this project is to determine if any historic Boreal Toad specimens have chytrid to determine its arrival in Utah. If any old specimens test positive, the secondary goal of this study is to determine if there is a relationship between the presence of chytrid and Boreal Toad disappearance. Previously collected Boreal Toad specimens from the Natural History Museum of Utah and the Monte L. Bean Life Science Museum were swabbed for chytrid. Sampling preserved specimens for chytrid is a fundamental step for a complete understanding of Boreal Toad disappearance in Utah. PCR and histological methods were the primary techniques for analyzing chytrid presence. The resulting genetic analysis detected chytrid in specimens dating back to the early 2000s as well as a specimen from 1961, but further skin analyses could not confirm chytrid presence in the skin of the specimen from 1961. As a result, this research project was not able to provide enough data for a thorough understanding of chytrid in historical Boreal Toad populations. However, this study examines the effectiveness of swabbing preserved specimens for chytrid and concludes that further research is needed to make progress in understanding the history of chytrid in Boreal Toads throughout the state and over time.

WOLDSTEDT (1874) hat diese kleinste holarktisch verbreitete Anomalonine vom Fundort Österbotten erstmalig aus Finnland nachgewiesen. HELLÉN (1926) erwähnt dasselbe Exemplar. In Europa scheint die Art sehr selten zu sein. Aus Nordamerika sind eine Reihe von Wirten, insbesondere Tortricidae, bekannt (DASCH, 1984). Das  aus Pisavaara wurde am 18. Juli 1950 gefangen.

Classification and identification of Central European peats (Proposals for the 4th edition of the German Soil Mapping Instruction)

description: Für den Abschnitt "Torfe" der Bodenkundlichen Kartieranleitung, deren 4. Auflage zur Zeit vorbereitet wird, wurde ein neuer Textvorschlag erarbeitet, der hiermit vorgelegt wird. Behandelt werden darin 1) die unterschiedlichen Klassifikationsmöglichkeiten der Torfe auf "botanischer" Grundlage (in den Torfen vertretene Pflanzenreste) sowie im Hinblick auf (primäre) bodenkundlich-chemische Eigenschaften (Basen- und pH-Verhältnisse), 2) die wichtigsten im Gelände ansprechbaren Pflanzenreste und ihre Merkmale, 3) die Zuordnung von verbreiteten botanisch charakterisierten Torfarten (oder "Torfarteneinheiten") zu den bodenkundlichen "Torfartengruppen" Hoch-, Übergangs- und Niedermoortorf an Hand einer Tabelle. Das entscheidende Kriterium für die Zuordnung zum Hochmoortorf ist das ausschließliche Vorkommen der Reste von Hochmoorpflanzen (diese werden im einzelnen aufgeführt). Übergangsmoortorfe sind durch die Reste von Pflanzenarten ausgezeichnet, die an basen- und nährstoffärmere Standorte außerhalb von Hochmooren gebunden sind (neben ihnen können aber auch Hochmoorpflanzen-Reste vertreten sein). Niedermoortorfe sind charakterisiert durch Reste basen- und nährstoffanspruchsvoller Arten (neben denen auch Reste anspruchsloserer Arten vertreten sein können).
description: Proposals are given for a new text of the section "Peat" of the German Soil Mapping Instruction, the 4th edition of which is now under preparation. The topics dealt with are as follows: 1. The different possibilities of classification of peat: on "botanical" basis (their contents of plant remains) and with respect to (primary) chemico-pedological characteristics (base and pH conditions). 2. The characteristics of the most common plant remains identifiable in the field. 3. The assignment of widespread botanical peat types to the three pedological peat groups: raised-bog peat, transitional-mire peat, and fen peat (shown by a table). The criterion decisive on the assignment of a given peat to raised-bog peat is the exclusive occurrence of remains of raised-bog plants (these are quoted in detail). Transitional-mire peats are distinguished by remains of plant species, which are restricted to sites poor in bases and nutrients (beyond the raised bogs, however), besides of them also raised-bog plant remains may be present. Fen peats are characterized by remains of base and nutrient demanding species (besides of them also remains of plants of poorer sites, but not of raised bogs may be present).

description: Quantum computing (QC) and deep learning techniques have attracted widespread attention in the recent years. This paper proposes QC-based deep learning methods for fault diagnosis that exploit their unique capabilities to overcome the computational challenges faced by conventional data-driven approaches performed on classical computers. Deep belief networks are integrated into the proposed fault diagnosis model and are used to extract features at different levels for normal and faulty process operations. The QC-based fault diagnosis model uses a quantum computing assisted generative training process followed by discriminative training to address the shortcomings of classical algorithms. To demonstrate its applicability and efficiency, the proposed fault diagnosis method is applied to process monitoring of continuous stirred tank reactor (CSTR) and Tennessee Eastman (TE) process. The proposed QC-based deep learning approach enjoys superior fault detection and diagnosis performance with obtained average fault detection rates of 79.2% and 99.39% for CSTR and TE process, respectively.

description: What you are about to read is a final project meant to incorporate ideas from my undergraduate coursework with my interests in medicine and economics. Issues in health care, especially insurance, fascinate me and I chose to use my Honors Capstone Project as an opportunity to further my understanding of issues important to me as both a future physician and businessman. The purpose of this paper is to practice critical and analytical thinking skills by exploring some of the challenging issues surrounding American health insurance and the Affordable Care Act while also gaining a deeper understanding of the nuances of the health care system I will one day practice in.
I've made a conscientious effort to incorporate ideas and concepts from my economics and business coursework into this paper to create a crossover between the theoretical concepts discussed in the classroom and current real world events. The hope is that the final product will not only act as a personal writing sample, but also be informative and entertaining to the reader by conveying relevant and pertinent information. Every section of this paper is meant to tell a story: each one with an interesting history, a thorough analysis, and a forecasting of what is to come. Not all of the stories will have a neat or happy ending, but nonetheless, these are the stories that must be told
