Abstract:

Societal views of the place of transgender and intersex individuals and the right of such individuals to participate in activities and institutions previously made unavailable to them based on sex are changing rapidly. While many institutions are allowing such people to engage in activities previously reserved for the sex opposite from their biological sex, the Catholic church must stand firm in its fidelity to the truth of human sexuality. However, groups within the Church have expressed differing views; namely, the German Synod and its recent text titled, “Dealing with Gender Diversity.” Thi

Abstract:

In the past decades, the transition to adulthood in post-industrial countries has become longer, giving rise to emerging adulthood, a new life stage between adolescence and adulthood (Arnett and Taber 1994, Arnett 2000, 2004). Cinema has reflected this change, with a growing number of narratives exploring the challenges of this life stage. Through a comparative analysis of Say Anything (Cameron Crowe, 1989) and High Fidelity (Stephen Frears, 2000), this article seeks to establish the emerging adult film as a youth film subgenre of its own by outlining some of the generic conventions that make

Females oviposit in at least seven host-plant families, always in the presence of fire ants (Solenopsis saevissima(Smith) complex), without being attacked by them. Larvae are tended by ants during all larval and pupal stages. From the fourth instar on, larvae feed at night and rest during the day inside underground shelters constructed by ants on the host plant roots, and where pupation occurs.

Abstract:

Loving Vincent (2017) functions as an adaptation in several interesting ways: narratively, the animated feature is a biopic that adapts Vincent van Gogh’s life, specifically the weeks leading up to his death. Visually, the film adapts the artist’s style through animation, employing van Gogh’s techniques, characters, and settings in order to flesh out and revise the events of his last days. From the perspective of adaptation theory, Loving Vincent enacts a productive series of engagements with fidelity. This essay argues that the animation’s hyper-faithful mimicking of van Gogh’s aesthetics pav

Abstract:

Lack of visibility in a fire-and-smoke environment is one of the major factors that causes firefighting operational difficulties, injuries or loss of life. To counter this problem, distance or range-finding sensors are used to detect obstacles or map out the area in a fire and smoke environment. These sensors can be mounted on robots assisting firefighting or even firefighters themselves. This paper aims to assess the operational capability of ultrasonic distance sensors in fire-and-smoke environments. Moreover, we investigate how to extract useful information in limiting conditions.

Pier Paolo Pasolini’s I racconti di Canterbury (The Canterbury Tales) (1972), a reinterpretation of Geoffrey Chaucer’s The Canterbury Tales, is undeniably the most controversial – and perplexing – film in his Trilogy of Life. Marked by a cacophonous filming process, one in which English and Italian actors attempted to retell a collection of stories written in a form of English that has been extinct for centuries, the triumphs of I racconti di Canterbury have seldom been recognized. Pasolini’s reinterpretation of Chaucerian dialect is especially understudied, despite how Chaucer was the first E

Abstract P. L. Travers’s literary nanny, Mary Poppins, has made much money for the Walt Disney Company. The musical film was the top grosser of 1964, and that revenue financed MAPO (Manufacturing and Production Organization), the theme parks’ audio-animatronics division. The studio’s desire for a follow-up film fell afoul of Travers’s opinions and demands. Because she gave stage rights to someone else, it wasn’t until Travers passed away that Disney could co-produce a live musical. From that success, Disney positioned Mary Poppins as a brand and a potential franchise, producing Saving Mr. Bank

Abstract The illusion that the life of a play is, like real life, taking place before our eyes, at that very moment, is one of the most powerful of dramatic appeals.

For this first-hand point of view is an appeal unique to the dramatic form. Other forms can only aspire to it.

Previous FSRI led research projects have focused on examining the fire environment with regards to current building construction methods, synthetic fuel loading, and best-practices in firefighting strategies and tactics. More than 50 experiments have been previously conducted utilizing furniture to produce vent-limited fire conditions, replicating the residential fire environment, and studying the methods of horizontal ventilation, vertical ventilation, and positive pressure attack. Tactical considerations generated from the research are intended to provide fire departments with information to

Abstract:

Firefighters routinely conduct live fire training in an effort to prepare themselves for the challenges of the fire ground. While conducting realistic live fire training is important, it also carries inherent risks. This is highlighted by several live fire training incidents in which an inappropriate fuel load contributed to the death of participants. NFPA 1403: Standard on Live Fire Training Evolutions was first established in response to a live fire training incident in which several firefighters died. Among the stipulations in NFPA 1403 is that the fuel load shall be composed of wood-based
