description: This thesis identifies trends in Unmanned Aircraft Systems (UAS) development and examines the status of UAS integration into the National Airspace System of the United States. The current states of Federal Aviation Administration technological initiatives, UAS operational guidelines and airspace regulations are described and explored. A review of academic literature, including scholarly journals and US federal legislation, examines trends in possible UAS applications, beneficial uses of employing UAS, potential risks associated with higher UAS ubiquity, and mitigation techniques to reduce risk. A low altitude aerial network is proposed in order to incorporate unmanned air traffic in a safe manner within the bounds of the selected study area of Fairfax County, Virginia. The results find that a majority of residential structures are capable of being accessed through this network and demonstrates that alternative methods of airspace conceptualization may lead to a reimagining of existing physical space for low altitude unmanned navigation.

description: Peer relationships play a very important role in children’s social and emotional development. Like adults, children face interpersonal conflicts in daily life, and forgiveness is a critical skill for them to repair and maintain friendships. Although forgiveness in children has been receiving increasing attention in recent years, little is known about children’s forgiveness in Japanese culture. The present study investigated dispositional, emotional, and parental influence on Japanese children and adolescents’ forgiveness. The participants were 86 Japanese children and adolescents (4th- to 8th-grade) and their parents living in Japan and the United States. The results showed that there was no gender difference in their likelihood to forgive and no association between perceived positive parenting style and their tendency to forgive. However, a negative relation between anger and forgiveness and a positive association between empathy and forgiveness were found. Contrary to the hypothesis, the results indicated that Japanese children and adolescents living in the U.S. had a higher likelihood to forgive than those who live in Japan. Implications for cultural differences in children and adolescents’ forgiveness and suggestions for future research are discussed.

description: How do societies begin to reconcile the schizophrenic “before” and “after” worlds experienced in the aftermath of severe social and political change? Literature of war and revolution suggests in a powerful way that it is the dynamic act of storytelling—the writing and rewriting of history—that represents a society’s ability to move forward. This thesis analyzes dramatic and narrative representations of schizophrenic collective consciousness during revolution and war in contemporary works. The split nature of a postwar consciousness becomes evident in Caryl Churchill’s Mad Forest (1990), and The Hospital at the Time of the Revolution (1972), Haruki Murakami’s The Wind-Up Bird Chronicle (1994), and Jonathan Safran Foer’s Extremely Loud and Incredibly Close (2005). Between these authors, trauma in the latter half of the twentieth century is explored through French-colonial Algerian, post-communist Romanian, and World War II German, Japanese and American societies. The theoretical framework through which the primary texts are analyzed draws heavily from social psychology studies of collective memory and trauma theory, as well as postmodern rhetoric that explores the individual’s place in a fragmented, war-torn society, and the relationship between time and space in identity formation.

description: Frozen semen provides several advantages relative to fresh or chilled semen for conservation of endangered equids. However, cryopreservation results in extensive loss of spermatozoa motility and viability arising from freeze-thaw induced membrane damage, osmotic stress, and oxidative stress leading to suboptimal fertility outcomes. The main objectives of this study were to:1) assess the ability of sodium tetraphenyl boron (TPB) to inhibit equine spermatozoa motility, 2) assess the ability of caffeine to reverse the inhibitory effects of TPB, and 3) evaluate if the inhibition of equine spermatozoa motility prior to cryopreservation improves post-thaw spermatozoa motility. Spermatozoa from domestic horse (Equus ferus caballus), Przewalski’s horse (E. f. przewalskii), and Persian onager (E. f. hemionus) were exposed to varying concentrations of TPB. Several motility characteristics including total motility, progressive motility, curvilinear motility, average path velocity, linearity, and straightness of equine spermatozoa were assessed using Computer Assisted Sperm analysis (CASA) over 2 h of in vitro incubation. After 2 h of incubation, TPB was washed and spermatozoa were resuspended in fresh medium containing 10 mM caffeine. Motility parameters described above were analyzed using CASA for 2 h of in vitro incubation. In a separate experiment, spermatozoa suspensions were pre-treated with 0 mM, 150 mM or 300 mM TPB and cryopreserved using standard protocols. Following thawing, spermatozoa were assessed for motility parameters (as described above), cell viability and acrosomal integrity. Exposure to TPB (150 mM, 300 mM and 500 mM) resulted in a significant sharp (P < 0.05) decline in total spermatozoa motility and progressive motility within 30 min of in vitro incubation. Caffeine (10 mM) failed to restore spermatozoa motility in TPB treated samples. Pre-treatment with TPB prior to cryopreservation failed to improve post-thaw sperm cell motility, progressive motility, viability or CASA parameters. However, there was no change in acrosomal integrity before or after cryopreservation. Overall, although TPB was successful in inhibiting sperm cell motility in all three subspecies of equids, contrary to earlier reports in human spermatozoa, caffeine was unable to restore motility in TPB treated spermatozoa. Furthermore, pre-treatment with TPB failed to improve post-thaw motility in equid spermatozoa. Further research is warranted to evaluate alternate cellular pathways that regulate reversible inhibition of equid spermatozoa and their effects on post-thaw sperm cell survival.
Agn Identification And Host Galaxy Properties In The Mosdef Survey

Subjects: Active Galactic Nuclei

description: I will present new results on the identification and host galaxy properties of X-ray, IR, and optically-selected AGN at 1.4 < z < 3.8, using spectroscopic data from the on-going MOSDEF survey.  MOSDEF is obtaining rest-frame optical spectra of ~1300 galaxies and AGN using the newly commissioned MOSFIRE instrument on Keck.  We find clear selection biases when identifying AGN at different wavelengths, in that AGN at any wavelength are typically found in more massive galaxies, while optically-selected AGN are also more likely to be found in galaxies with low SFR, while IR AGN are typically found in galaxies with higher SFR.  We also find that optical and X-ray AGN selection identifies AGN with a wider range of accretion rates than IR AGN selection.  By combining AGN samples selected at different wavelengths, we find that AGN host galaxies have similar stellar age and dust content as inactive galaxies of the same stellar mass.

Ants

description: Le formiche possono essere uno strumento efficace per studiare la biodiversità urbana e l’impatto che l’uomo ha su essa? Dall’esigenza di rispondere a questa domanda di ricerca nasce il progetto “School of Ants: a scuola con le formiche” (SoA), condotto dai ricercatori dell’Università di Parma (UNIPR). Le formiche, utilizzate con successo come bioindicatori in molti ambienti naturali, rappresentano, a livello globale, una famiglia di insetti estremamente diversificata, diffusa e abbondante. Inoltre, sono facilmente riconoscibili e individuabili anche da occhi non esperti e possono, quindi, avere un ruolo in studi di monitoraggio ambientale che coinvolgano non solo ricercatori professionisti ma anche volontari non specialisti. Poiché in Italia le informazioni sulla presenza e distribuzione delle specie di formiche in città sono tuttora scarse, il progetto SoA si propone di ottenere, come obiettivo primario, il primo censimento ufficiale della mirmecofauna urbana. Grazie al coinvolgimento e al contributo di volontari provenienti da 14 regioni e 44 province, SoA ha attualmente registrato la presenza di 63 specie urbane, che rappresentano circa il 25% dell’intera mirmecofauna italiana. Inoltre, da diversi anni, Il progetto SoA si avvale della collaborazione con il Museo delle Scienze di Trento (MUSE), con cui ha avviato un percorso dedicato ai docenti delle scuole di ogni ordine e grado interessati a partecipare con le loro classi. Proprio nell’ambito di questo percorso, UNIPR e MUSE hanno realizzato la Ant Box: un pacchetto didattico-scientifico che contiene tutto il materiale necessario per consentire ai docenti di partecipare alla raccolta dei dati e di sviluppare in autonomia un progetto didattico per tutta la classe nel corso dell’anno scolastico. A questo si affiancano due corsi di formazione per i docenti che vengono organizzati annualmente da UNIPR e MUSE e un tutoraggio continuativo da parte delle responsabili del progetto. Ad oggi, 58 scuole, 84 insegnanti e 2371 studenti, hanno contribuito in modo sostanziale. Per il futuro, il progetto si propone di raggiungere nuovi obiettivi che prevedano il coinvolgimento dei volontari in tutti le fasi del processo scientifico compresa anche la formulazione di nuove domande sperimentali avvicinandosi quindi alle modalità della “extreme Citizen Science”.

description: This study seeks to understand how CEOs are utilizing Twitter and whether their utilization is effective. Under the lens of Grunig and Hunt’s four models of public relations, I examined nineteen Fortune 500 CEOs who are active on Twitter. Twitter feeds from a four-week time period were coded for model of public relations used, quality of leadership displayed, as well as tweet content. While a relationship between models of public relations used and quality of charismatic leadership displayed was not found, the importance of a CEO’s intended audience was clear. At a basic level, a deeper understanding of how CEOs are actually utilizing Twitter has been gained. Moreover though, this study has potentially discovered an emerging taxonomy for the reasons why CEOs use Twitter. As well, there are now greater insights into how the CEOs intended audience impacts how CEOs tweet. This study found that CEOs who are intending to communicate with their employees will utilize two-way symmetrical communication; whereas, CEOs seeking to communicate with journalists or customers will utilize the other models of public relations more frequently. From this study best practices can begin to be developed for more effective use of Twitter by CEOs.

description: This thesis is a collection of poems that explores the confines and expansions of young femininity. Working within a “gurlesque” style of poetry, Guilty Pleasures comments on the razzle-dazzle of beauty pageants, the stickiness of new love, and the witchy mysticism of being a woman. Underlying the glitz and glam is constraint. Present here are the literal constraints of poetic form, as well as the corset-like bondages of womanhood; the tightness of a zipped dress, feeling trapped like a princess in a tower. Sure, maybe she can’t move so freely…but doesn’t she look so good?

subject: Trauma literacy
subject: Rhetoric

description: While trauma rhetoric continues to be a focus of scholarly inquiry in a post #metoo world, friendships are not explored and included within this body of literature. This dissertation responds to this gap through a feminist rhetorical analysis of Post-2010 television, another area that lacks in rhetoric. Through an analysis of trauma and friendship rhetoric in Private Practice, Thirteen Reasons Why, and The End of the F***ing World, this study finds television perpetuates a rhetoric of trauma that decenters the survivor’s experience and refocuses the narrative toward a narration of how the traumatic events in question affect the friend groups involved. Using Burke’s rhetorical theory of identification and Wendy S. Hesford’s framing of trauma rhetoric, the study unveils how spectators are conditioned to identify with the dominant friend character who in turn has control over the narrative. Then, the dominant character chastises the survivors or victims who have brought this trauma to the friend group. This study also finds that this same rhetoric is infiltrated in public dialogues such as the Kavanaugh-Blasey Ford hearings, which makes this work have implications for public dialogues on trauma. Finally, the study argues for a more “trauma-literate” rhetoric of friendships and maintains that feminist rhetorical analysis of fictional and public dialogues of trauma can bring this type of literacy.

description: Records of Hoogenraadia in China
There were two extant Hoogenraadia taxa previously recorded in China, H. cryptostoma and H. asiatica to which can be added our new record of an additional species of uncertain identity (Shen 1983, Wang and Min 1987, Qin et al. 2011). In addition, the fossil H. asiatica was found in the sediments from late Pleistocene and Holocene (Wang and Min 1987). The limited nature of testate amoebae records from modern China make impossible to be sure if this species still exists or if it has become extinct.
The testate species illustrated in Fig. 1 is common in the soils of Shennongjia Mountains, and it is especially abundant in the soils near the Dajiuhu peatland. The occurrence of this species was briefly noted and illustrated in Qin et al. (2011) under the name Planhoogenraadia africana – here we provide full details of this finding. The size of the specimens are as follows (N = 17): shell length 115–155 µm, shell width 50–65 µm which is mid-range in size for this genus.This was identified as Planhoogenraadia africana by Qin et al. (2011) – who also implied that the genera Planhoogenraadia and Hoogenraadia may be synonymous. However, because of the shape of the ventral apature (compare with Fig. 2c) we do not believe this taxon to be Hoogenraadia africana but tentatively assign it to c.f. Hoogenraadia humicola.
These new records clearly illustrate the current difficulties in assigning some specimens to an unambiguous morpho-species and suggest that there is more to learn about the occurrence of this genus in China and further work is obviously required. Molecular data would obviously be very useful in sorting out the current uncertainties about the status of these morphospecies.

title: From Antiquity to Academia: A History of Early American Brass Bands and a Way Forward for Their Adaptation within Institutions of Higher Learning
Creators: name: (:Unkn) Unknown
Publisher: name: George Mason University
Year: 2021

description: The American Brass Band Movement (1835-1892) is an important period within music history that is disproportionally and inadequately taught in collegiate music history classrooms. By learning about America’s band history and by performing in these ensembles, future music educators will be able to have a more well-rounded understanding of the instruments, the repertoire, and the cultural importance of bands in our community. This dissertation provides a history of the American Brass Band Movement in addition to exploring the resurrection of contemporary early American brass bands.With the goal of making early American brass bands standard ensembles within collegiate music programs, this dissertation also discusses some of the problems and difficulties one may face when forming or performing in one. There are currently at least fifty early American brass bands active in the United States, most of which model themselves after Civil War brass bands and only one of which is currently affiliated with a major university. Early American brass bands not only bring to life the early band music of America, but they also have the potential to provide a number of highly valuable learning opportunities for students in colleges and universities. If these ensembles are adopted within institutions of higher learning, college music students can learn about popular nineteenth century musical genres, accomplished composers, virtuosic soloists, notable bands, and innovative instruments with hands-on experiences. The bands can entertain and inform audiences with music from the period as well as provide the university with a valuable ceremonial brass ensemble and unique marching arts ensemble. They will help bring people together and have them participate in a collective music-making that is part teaching the past and part enlightening the present and future.

description: In religious psychology, deconversion is often studied as an intrapersonal phenomenon, a shift from religious belief to disbelief. But deconversion is at least analogous to (if not coterminous with) social conflict in that both are complex, non-linear social phenomena characterized by destructive relational patterns and protracted social identities. Hence this thesis presents a theory of deconversion as conflict. This theory is informed both by original research and the literatures of religious psychology, peace and conflict studies, and narratology. Original research includes a root narrative analysis of a triangulated dataset—five focus group interviews and a small sample of representative texts from three conflict parties. This includes the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, its current members, and its former members. This analysis demonstrates stark differences in moral grammar that make it difficult for each party to understand the points of view of the other. Who one group sees as a hero, the other sees as a villain; and what one group sees as their primary method of overcoming abuse, the other sees as an abuse of power. These disparate moral systems influence each party to choose resolution strategies such as evangelism and apologetics that fracture their relationship and prevent reconciliation. These findings suggest: a) deconversion transforms the relationships between believers and the newly formed disbeliever, b) evangelism and apologetics are win-lose modes of interaction unfit for the purpose of conflict resolution, and c) a healed relationship between believers and disbelievers will not occur automatically but requires renegotiation.

description: Dieses Policy Paper greift eine dringend notwendige Debatte über postkoloniale Hierarchien in der Forschung auf. Im Zentrum steht die Verantwortung von Universitäten, sich kritisch mit ihrer kolonialen Vergangenheit auseinanderzusetzen und fortbestehende Gewaltverhältnisse zu erkennen und zu überwinden. Trotz wachsender Sensibilität fehlt es bislang an klaren Richtlinien für universitäre Praxis und Politik, insbesondere im Umgang mit kolonialen Sammlungen und der Rückgabe menschlicher Überreste. Um Forschung von diesen problematischen Grundlagen zu befreien, braucht es eine systematische und methodologische Auseinandersetzung sowie eine enge Zusammenarbeit mit betroffenen Gemeinschaften und politischen Akteuren. Das Africa Centre for Transregional Research (ACT) der Universität Freiburg beantragte erfolgreich eine Förderung beim Ministerium für Wissenschaft, Forschung und Kunst (MWK) in Baden-Württemberg, um die Herkunft kolonialer Relikte zu erforschen. Basierend auf diesen Erfahrungen zeigt dieses Policy Paper konkrete Wege auf, wie Universitäten ihre koloniale Vergangenheit aufarbeiten können.

description: Dimensionality reduction is a widely studied field that is used to visualize data, cluster samples, and extract insights from high-dimensional distributions. The classical approaches such as PCA, Isomap, and Laplacian eigenmaps rely on clear optimization strategies while more modern approaches such at tSNE and UMAP define gradient descent search spaces through disparities between the high- and low-dimensional datasets. In this work, we notice that all of these approaches can be interpreted as minimizing the difference between two kernel functions – one for the high dimensional space and one for the low dimensional space. In particular, once we abstract the kernel functions, we can develop a common framework for any dimensionality reduction problem. Namely, one needs to identify their high-dimensional distance kernel, the low-dimensional distance kernel, and the method used for minimization. With this in mind, we identify the relevant general framework and then proceed to discuss the ways in which PCA, tSNE, and UMAP all fit into it. For each, we discuss insights that were obtained during the process. We lastly highlight next steps and directions for future work.

description: From the attacker’s perspective, one of the most time-consuming parts of planning a network attack is the reconnaissance required to find potential network attack vectors. Since application programming interfaces (APIs) must be exposed to the public, the amount of time the attacker spends finding attack vectors into the API’s network is greatly reduced, making APIs an easier target for potential breaches. The use of APIs can increase the attack surface of a network, and, if not designed correctly, they can result in significant security issues.

The rise in implementing microservice architectures in place of monolithic software architectures now makes APIs more common than ever. To facilitate implementation of a zero trust strategy in a network, this pervasiveness requires a focused effort to identify API-specific vulnerabilities. This blog post from the Carnegie Mellon University Software Engineering Institute presents three top API security risks and recommendations for mitigating them.

description: Maps are powerful. They can orient us on unfamiliar streets or help us find our way through unmarked territory. In their essence, maps distill an incredible amount of information into a compact, readable, digestible abstraction—a tool for navigating and understanding what’s around us. This exhibit expands upon the traditional idea of mapping, featuring works by artists at Mason and artists in the Mason Libraries collection. Each of these artists has embraced the map as a dynamic and versatile tool for investigating histories, bodies, geographies, and more. By recording landmarks, making careful observations, and charting terrain of all sorts physical and intangible, each artist’s map reveals a surprising story.

description: Background: The aim of this study was to compare en-face optical coherence tomography (OCT) imaging and confocal scanning laser ophthalmoscopy (cSLO) imaging at different wavelengths to identify the internal limiting membrane (ILM) peeling area after primary surgery with vitrectomy and ILM peeling for macular hole (MH). Methods: In total, 50 eyes of 50 consecutive patients who underwent primary surgery with vitrectomy and ILM peeling for MH were studied. The true ILM rhexis based on intraoperative color fundus photography was compared to the presumed ILM rhexis identified by a blinded examiner using en-face OCT imaging and cSLO images at various wavelengths. To calculate the fraction of overlap (FoO), the common intersecting area and the total of both areas were measured. Results: The FoO for the measured areas was 0.93 ± 0.03 for en-face OCT, 0.76 ± 0.06 for blue reflectance (BR; 488 nm), 0.71 ± 0.09 for green reflectance (GR; 514 nm), 0.56 ± 0.07 for infrared reflectance (IR; 815 nm) and 0.73 ± 0.06 for multispectral (MS). The FoO in the en-face OCT group was significantly higher than in all other groups, whereas the FoO in the IR group was significantly lower compared to all other groups. No significant differences were observed in FoO among the MS, BR, and GR groups. In en-face OCT, there was no significant change in the ILM peeled area measured intraoperatively and postoperatively (8.37 ± 3.01 vs. 8.24 ± 2.81 mm2; p = 0.8145). Nasal-inferior foveal displacement was observed in 38 eyes (76%). Conclusions: En-face OCT imaging demonstrates reliable postoperative visualization of the ILM peeled area. Although the size of the ILM peeling remains stable after one month, our findings indicate a notable inferior-nasal shift of the overall ILM peeling area towards the optic disc.

description: If you have a teenager in your house, then chances are you know something about Japanese anime manga, whether in the form of paperback comics, television series, movies, electronic games, or -- as teenagers like to say -- whatever. If indeed your teenager has made you aware of this, then he or she has undoubtedly also made you aware that Japan -- the country these products emanate from -- is a truly awesome place! And the fact that millions of teenagers and young adults in America and all around the world think positively about Japan because they love its anime manga is important for Japan's image.
