Abstract:
Dion Boucicault’s three Irish plays: The Colleen Bawn (1860), Arrah-na-Pogue (1864) and The Shaughraun (1874), while not critically significant, owe their perennial popularity to their appeal to Irish romantic nationalism and to their memorable character types. While Boucicault’s character Myles Murphy or Myles na gCopaleen (Myles of the Ponies), an example of his native Irish hero, was the first of a series of rogue heroes that John Millington Synge developed in his character of Christy Mahon, Boucicault also owes the character of Myles to American native heroes like Sam Patch, Davy Crockett and Mose the Bowery B’hoy. While the plays are not great drama, they are good theatre and a less self-conscious national theatre has found room for both Boucicault and Synge.

Abstract:
The inspiration for Dion Boucicault's first Irish subject, The Colleen Bawn, in a set of pictur esque views of Ireland after the artist W. H. Bartlett is well documented, and Bartlett's iconography of wild scenery, moonlight, round towers, and ruined abbeys features strongly throughout the Irish plays. Although Bartlett's compositions were widely known in the nineteenth century, there has been little consideration of how they may have informed the audience's understanding of the plays. Rather, they are regarded as a set of clichéd, stereotyped images, which the playwright subverted through a process of ironic distancing and repurposing. In this article Patricia Smyth argues that, on the contrary, Boucicault made use of the mythical and supernatural associations of picturesque Ireland in order to convey a particular narrative of Irish history. Patricia Smyth is a Visiting Research Fellow at the University of Warwick. She has published articles and book chapters on French and British nineteenth-century art, visual culture and theatre. She is co-editor of Nineteenth-Century Theatre and Film, co-edited with Jim Davis a special issue dedicated to theatrical iconography (2012), and is currently completing a book on Paul Delaroche and theatre.

Abstract:
The 2000 land reform programme implemented by the government of Zimbabwe came with an initiative of acquiring enormous hectares of white-owned farmland and distributing it on a massive scale to small-scale farmers. Indeed the greater part of the land was taken from the white commercial farmers and distributed to the majority black Zimbabweans, leaving only a small share of the farmland in the hands of the whites. The land reform programme, undoubtedly, benefited Zimbabweans. In Zimbabwe, especially in mining areas, there are classes of Zimbabweans, those who originate from Zimbabwe, as well as those who are of foreign origin, but are Zimbabweans by birth. Zimbabweans by birth who are of foreign origin occupied an allocated A2 farm, Capital Block, located near a cement mining area, Colleen Bawn. Most of them were of Malawian origin, and the area is now popularly known as ‘New Malawi’. This study sought to investigate how Zimbabweans of foreign origin benefited from the 2000 land reform programme. The article further sought to reveal the diverse farming systems as well as Indigenous Knowledge (IK), which were passed on from the forefathers who were born in Malawi, but migrated to Zimbabwe’s mining areas in search for employment in the then Rhodesia around 1960. A qualitative methodology was used in this research, in which oral history interviews were conducted with the people living in the area of the ‘New Malawi’. The study revealed that most of the land was being used for farming purposes. Beneficiaries of the programme had become self-dependent. The study further revealed that there was knowledge sharing among the beneficiaries of different foreign origins including Zambia, Malawi, Mozambique, Botswana and those of Zimbabwean origin. Based on the findings of the study, it was concluded that the programme benefited a number of people of foreign origins who were now Zimbabweans by birth and Zimbabweans by both birth and origin were happy with these people benefiting, a situation which shows the extent to which Zimbabweans are tolerant of foreigners.

Abstract:
Although affirmative action in college admissions is constitutionally permissible, several states prohibit it. We investigate whether bans push black and Latino students from in-state public selective colleges to other types of postsecondary institutions, thus contributing to talent loss among these groups. Unlike most other studies, we analyze national data (the High School Longitudinal Study of 2009) so that we can follow students across state lines. We find no evidence that students from ban states shift from one type of selective college to another; that is, from in-state public flagships to in-state private ones or selective colleges in other states. However, the odds of attending a nonselective college, instead of an in-state public selective college, are almost three times higher among blacks and Latinos in ban states compared with their counterparts in states without bans. We argue that bans on affirmative action may contribute to talent loss among black and Latino students.

Abstract:
The fibrillar collagen network is postulated to be a primary determinant of left ventricular diastolic stiffness. This hypothesis was tested by examining the structural and physiological effects of a reduction in fibrillar collagen content and cross-linking in the intact left ventricle. Collagen cross-linking was inhibited by treating five normal adult pigs with beta-aminopropionitrile (BAPN; 10 g/day po) for 6 wk; five normal untreated pigs served as controls. Left ventricular volume, mass, and function were determined by simultaneous echocardiography and catheterization. Chamber stiffness, defined by pressure vs. volume data, and myocardial stiffness, defined by stress vs. dimension data, were determined from variably loaded beats during dextran infusion. Collagen distribution (% area) and integrity (% confluence) were determined by light microscopy. Collagen content was measured by hydroxyproline assay, and collagen cross-linking was measured by salt extraction. BAPN decreased collagen distribution (% area decreased from 12 +/- 1% in control to 7 +/- 1% in BAPN, P < 0.05), collagen integrity (% confluence decreased from 8 +/- 1% in control to 4 +/- 1% in BAPN, P < 0.05), collagen content (from 36 +/- 2 mg/g dry wt in control to 27 +/- 2 mg/g dry wt in BAPN, P < 0.05), and collagen cross-linking (extractable collagen increased from 21 +/- 2% in control to 28 +/- 2% in BAPN, P < 0.05). BAPN decreased chamber stiffness (0.13 +/- 0.02 in control to 0.06 +/- 0.01 in BAPN, P < 0.05) and myocardial stiffness (10.4 +/- 0.5 in control to 6.6 +/- 0.5 in BAPN, P < 0.05).(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)

Abstract:
The extracellular matrix (ECM) is important for many events during embryonic development. An important component of the ECM in sea urchin embryos is collagen. Collagen has been identified in the basal lamina of sea urchin embryos by morphological and immunological criteria. Recently, the need for a crosslinked collagenous matrix in the basal lamina during sea urchin embryogenesis has been demonstrated using β–aminoproprionitrile (BAPN). BAPN is a specific inhibitor of lysyl oxidase, an enzyme involved in collagen crosslinking. BAPN treatment causes completely reversible developmental arrest at the early gastrula stage, or supression of mesenchyme cell motility and archenteron elongation, depending on the time of addition of the drug. BAPN also significantly decreases the extent of collagen crosslinking, based on solubility assays. This study examines fine structural changes in cellular morphology and motility and the three-dimensional structure of the ECM induced by BAPN treatment during gastrulation and larva formation in the sea urchin embryo.

Abstract:
Hypoxic pulmonary hypertension (HPH) is associated with pulmonary artery (PA) remodeling and right ventricular (RV) overload. We have previously uncovered collagen-mediated mechanisms of proximal PA stiffening in early HPH by manipulating collagen degradation and cross-linking using a transgenic mouse strain and a potent collagen cross-link inhibitor, β-aminopropionitrile (BAPN). However, the roles of collagen in distal PA remodeling, overall RV afterload, and RV hypertrophy in HPH remain unknown. Here, we used the same experimental strategy to investigate the effect of pulmonary vascular collagen content and cross-linking on steady and pulsatile RV afterload and on RV hypertrophy in early HPH. Collagenase-resistant mice (Col1a1R/R) and their littermate controls (Col1a1+/+) were exposed to normobaric hypoxia for 10 days with or without BAPN treatment. In vivo pulmonary vascular impedance, a comprehensive measure of RV afterload, was measured via simultaneous RV catheterization and echocardiography. Morphology and collagen accumulation were examined using histological techniques and ELISA in lungs and RVs. In both mouse strains, BAPN did not limit increases in pulmonary arterial pressure or pulmonary vascular resistance, indicating a negligible effect of either collagen content or cross-linking on steady RV afterload. However, BAPN prevented the increase in pulse pressure and RV hypertrophy in Col1a1+/+ mice and these effects were absent in Col1a1R/R mice, suggesting a role for PA collagen content, not cross-linking, in the pulsatile RV afterload. Moreover, we found a significant correlation between pulse pressure and RV hypertrophy, indicating an important role for pulsatile RV afterload in RV overload in early HPH. NEW & NOTEWORTHY The present study found an important role for collagen content, but not collagen cross-linking, in the pulsatile right ventricular (RV) afterload, which is correlated with RV hypertrophy. These results uncover a new collagen-mediated mechanical mechanism of RV dysfunction in early pulmonary hypertension progression. Furthermore, our results suggest that measures and metrics of pulsatile hemodynamics such as pulse pressure and pulse wave velocity are potentially important to cardiovascular mortality in patients with pulmonary hypertension.

Detta är en undersökning av fördelningen av sökande till en musikhögskola vid tre söktillfällen med fem års mellanrum, 1997, 2002 och 2007. Mot denna bakgrund diskuteras förändringar i instrumentval som antas spegla förändringar för ca 20 år sedan då de sökande antas ha gjort sina val.Förändringar som jag har iakttagit är att instrument som går under den klassiska genren har tappat sökande men den är fortfarande den största genren. Instrument under afrogenren blir mer och mer populära och folkmusikgenren blir större och större.


This is a study of the apportionment of applicants to a music college during three occasions with five-year intervals, 1997, 2002 and 2007. Against this background, changes are dis-cussed with regard to choice of instrument that are assumed to reflect changes approximately 20 years ago, when the applicants made their choices.  Among the changes that I have observed are that instruments associated with classical genres have decreased significantly in number, yet are still the majority. Instruments associated with Afroamerican genres are increasing in popularity, while ethnic music genres have become larger.

Abstract:
Thesis (MSc (Clinical psychology)) -- University of Limppopo, 2011.
Client-Centred therapy is a form of therapy that necessitates the use of emotion words in order to facilitate empathy between client and therapist. The current study investigated the availability of emotion words in the South Sotho language within the context of the South African Police Services. The availability of emotion words in the South Sotho language will help client-centred therapists to facilitate empathy with their South Sotho clients. The investigation in this study employed three phases. A convenient sample of South Sotho-speaking SAPS trainees participated in a free listing phase. The frequency of the words was recorded and the words with a frequency of 5 and above were retained. The list obtained from the free listing phase was given to a convenient sample of South Sotho language experts for prototypically rating. Cronbach’s Alpha was computed, and words with a mean of 0,4 and more were considered to be prototypes of the concept of emotion. Individual Client-Centered therapy was conducted with twelve SAPS members in English. The interviews were recorded, transcribed and given to two Client-Centered therapists to identify the emotion words. These words were compared with the words from phase two for their South Sotho translation. The findings indicate that almost 40% of the English emotion words from individual Client-Centered interviews did not have South Sotho equivalents. This implies that Client-Centered therapists will have difficulty facilitating empathy to their clients in South Sotho. And as such, the effectiveness of Client-Centered therapy will be compromised. However these results should be looked at with caution as the study’s sample was small and may not represent the larger population

Abstract:

In this dissertation, I analyze the development and dissemination of state-level policies to prohibit colleges from considering criminal history for purposes of admissions otherwise known as ban the box in higher education. This research engages with practical and instructive questions of how individuals or coalitions can learn from other policy campaigns to strategically reduce the collateral consequences of criminal convictions. I conducted a collective case study of the first five states to introduce ban the box in higher education legislation, namely New York, Illinois, Maryland, Louisiana, and Washington. I used critical discourse analysis to analyze all available media and social media content to identify where legislation was filed and major stakeholders. I then transcribed and analyzed all available legislative hearings and interviewed key stakeholders to determine the dominant discourses within and across five states. The study found that legislators and advocates evoked the following arguments in opposition to ban the box in higher education: positive self/ negative other, paternalistic decision making, uselessness, and fear of the undeserving. In support, advocates and legislators used arguments that emphasized individual benefits, community benefits, and diversity. Advocates in support also presented personal testimony from formerly incarcerated students and alumni to humanize people with convictions. The findings illuminate possible strategies and barriers to passing supportive policy that reduces collateral consequences and limits the reach of the criminal legal system.

Abstract:
This chapter examines the recent trends in gambling and fixing in college football. Despite the passing of the Professional and Amateur Sports Protection Act (also known as the Bradley Act) in 1992, betting on sports has become a more serious problem than drug or alcohol abuse in educational institutions from elementary schools to college campuses. Included in this alarming trend are bookmaking operations run by between one and fifty students on college campuses. And because gambling has become so widespread in the country, most people do not take seriously the legal ban on sports betting. However, the chapter shows that, despite the decline in major gambling scandals in recent years, game rigging and other illegal gambling ventures still occur, echoing the patterns of previous decades.

A week before an important 1883 Thanksgiving Day game in New York City, Harvard’s faculty athletic committee bans Harvard’s football team from participating, saying football is becoming brutal and dangerous. They are persuaded to withdraw their ban but after the game initiate a conference of colleges seeking to create a multicollege, interinstitutional athletic oversight organization. The conference promulgates resolutions, but most colleges refuse to accept them and the effort is abandoned. Yale’s Professor Eugene Richards writes a scholarly article in Popular Science defending college athletics and student management, and Camp adds his own newspaper letter published in three New York City papers in support of similar views.

Abstract:
The membership growth of the NAIA and growing prominence of its basketball tournament gave it greater exposure, but this cut both ways when it was revealed in 1948 that the tournament excluded black players. The NAIA’s racial ban was only one of many discriminatory practices aimed at blacks in mid-century American college athletics, including the Big Ten’s unwritten prohibition of black players. Forced now to address the matter, Emil Liston and Al Duer worked to overturn the rule and make use of the NAIA as a vehicle to force racial change in Kansas City. Duer worked tirelessly to ensure that black players enjoyed the same privileges as white players and also to challenge segregation in the Kansas City hospitality industry. More than simply welcome black players, Duer also helped restructure the NAIA to welcome historically black colleges as full members while also scrupulously avoiding giving offense to existing Southern segregationist member schools. The affirmative efforts of the NAIA to confront the very real problems of scheduling, lodging, and access for black players and historically black colleges did much to win the support of those schools. It also, however, put in stark contrast the relative indifference of the NCAA to the same issues.

Abstract:
Chastened by how close a national ban of peyote came to passing in early 1918, the following October a group of Native American peyotists gathered in El Reno, Oklahoma, in order to found the Native American Church. This chapter explores this remarkable moment of political activism, along with the histories of peyotism in the United States that led to this initiative. The deep history of peyotism north of the border remains somewhat unclear, though we can be certain that the individuals who came together in 1918 to found a church that could, in turn, enjoy constitutional protections were participants in practices that had consolidated in the latter half of the nineteenth century. Their efforts to create an institutionalized church that would be legible to the U.S. government did not immediately bear fruit, as anti-peyotists dominated the Bureau of Indians Affairs (BIA) through the 1920s, though these efforts did begin to see significant success after John Collier became chief of the BIA in 1933.

Abstract:
The late 1960s and early 1970s was a world of increasing political unrest on many fronts. In January 1969, Richard Nixon replaced Lyndon Johnson as president. Public support for the war in Vietnam was diminishing and there were widespread antiwar demonstrations. Environmental awareness and concerns were rapidly increasing. Air and water pollution were increasingly severe. A huge oil spill dumped 100,000 barrels of crude oil onto the beaches of Santa Barbara, California. The Cuyahoga River in Ohio caught fire. Students buried automobiles on college campuses. Lake Erie could no longer support fish. The great whales were being killed in record numbers. People were apprehensive about pesticides. The Bald Eagle, national symbol, was disappearing. The first Earth Day was launched in 1970. Responding to this public outcry, the National Environmental Policy Act passed Congress almost unanimously and became law on January 1, 1970; the Clean Air Act became law in 1970, the Clean Water Act in 1972, and the Endangered Species Act in 1973; and the Federal Insecticide, Fungicide and Rodenticide Act was rewritten in 1972. Rachel Carson’s Silent Spring had appeared in 1962 and generated a sizable public reaction, but pesticide policies had changed very little by 1970. This was the milieu in which EDF sought to pursue its goals of a national ban on DDT and the development of environmental law. Reaching those goals would require a much more substantial organization than EDF was in 1969; at that time it was little more than a board of trustees with plenty of ideas but no staff, no office, and almost no money. Most of those trustees were going about their normal lives with EDF concerns more like a hobby than a profession. Their dedication was strong and very real, but a strategic game plan was barely in sight. There were additional impediments when compared with today’s world. Forty-five years ago communications barely resembled what we have now. Most television sets were black-and-white with small screens and large bulky bodies, although color TV was arriving slowly. There were no computers or cell phones.
