    Social dancing of to-day,

    No full text
    This is one of the most valuable dance manuals for the study of social dance practices during the ragtime era. The manual is enhanced by twenty six photographs of several important exhibition dance teams (for example, Irene and Vernon Castle; Maurice and Florence Walden). More than thirty steps are described including the one step, tango, Brazilian maxixe, and the hesitation waltz.Reprinted with slight changes from: The dance; its place in art and life, by Troy and Margaret West Kinney

    Rapid and tunable method to temporally control gene editing based on conditional Cas9 stabilization

    No full text
    The CRISPR/Cas9 system is a powerful tool for studying gene function. Here, we describe a method that allows temporal control of CRISPR/Cas9 activity based on conditional Cas9 destabilization. We demonstrate that fusing an FKBP12-derived destabilizing domain to Cas9 (DD-Cas9) enables conditional Cas9 expression and temporal control of gene editing in the presence of an FKBP12 synthetic ligand. This system can be easily adapted to co-express, from the same promoter, DD-Cas9 with any other gene of interest without co-modulation of the latter. In particular, when co-expressed with inducible Cre-ERT2, our system enables parallel, independent manipulation of alleles targeted by Cas9 and traditional recombinase with single-cell specificity. We anticipate this platform will be used for the systematic characterization and identification of essential genes, as well as the investigation of the interactions between functional genes

    2 July 2007 Morehart Farm Dye Trace

    Two dye traces in 2007 near Kinney Creek. Logistical support from the Minnesota Environment and Natural Resources Trust Fund as recommended by the Legislative Citizen Commission on Minnesota Resources (LCCMR).Our research is designed to delineate springsheds feeding trout streams in Olmsted County, Minnesota. Trout streams are highly dependent on springs discharging large volumes of cool, clear spring water in order to sustain trout populations. Olmsted County is an area of Southeastern Minnesota with mature karst, and as such, the surficial bedrock aquifer is highly vulnerable to pollution and contamination. In particular, highly turbid ground water from storm events can reach springs and thereby adversely affecting trout populations. Fluorescent dye tracing was utilized to delineate springshed areas and conduit connections of springs feeding the east side of Kinney Creek in Pleasant Grove and Orion Townships. In late June 2007, background monitoring was started at selected locations and on 2 July 2007 a double dye trace was initiated by introducing the fluorescent dyes eosin (CAS 17372-87-1) and sulforhodamine B (CAS 3520-42-1) to sinkholes MN55:D0133 and MN55:D0162, respectively. Direct water . samples and activated carbon detectors were analyzed by scanning spectrofluorometric methods revealing both introduction points to be in the springshed McConnell's Spring (MN55:A0006). Travel times were faster than three days per kilometer.National Science Foundation Research Experience for Undergraduates ProgramEagle, Sarah D; Alexander Jr., E. Calvin.

    Leveraging Artificial Intelligence for Supply Chain Risk Management

    No full text
    The rise of artificial intelligence (AI) solutions in the corporate landscape has prompted a wider discussion among public stakeholders and policymakers about the best practices for leveraging this evolving technology to coordinate the global supply chain. In area of supply chain risk management (SCRM), scholars and practitioners have only recently turned their attention to how AI can bolster, or even supplement humans in decision-making processes. While AI holds a great deal of promise in reducing the potential for severe supply chain disruptions, ethical considerations and the novelty of AI-based solutions can introduce multiple challenges for critical infrastructure organizations that may be eager to incorporate this technology. The aim of this technical paper is to describe recent advancements and emerging trends in the use of AI to quantify risk crisis management readiness and make strategic choices using identified risks in decision-making. In what follows, I will provide a review of key research findings, methodologies, and innovations made in the areas of AI and SCRM. Additionally, this paper unpacks core ethical issues including algorithmic bias, responsible data handling, and outsourcing decision-making. These are interrelated issues that critical infrastructure corporations must navigate to maintain a commitment to safety and security while increasing organizational resilience. To conclude, this paper outlines several suggested best practices for businesses that are eager to incorporate artificial intelligence into supply chain risk management protocols and discusses expected trends in the use of AI in SCRM

    Toward a More Effective Policy Model for Data Breach Reporting in the Texas Healthcare System

    No full text
    Hospital data breaches have been escalating in recent years commanding the attention of policymakers. In addition to putting healthcare facilities in financial and legal jeopardy, data breaches undermine the healthcare system by threatening public trust. In 2023, Texas legislators amended the Business and Commerce Code to adjust data breach reporting practices in response to this growing threat. This amendment introduces new reporting requirements that impact healthcare facilities in several ways. The aim of this technical paper is to provide policymakers and healthcare administrators an introduction to the issue of data breaches and suggest additional improvements to this law. In what follows, I will provide a brief overview of the background and significance of data breaches in the healthcare system, define the types of data breaches that most commonly impact the healthcare system and review existing regulatory policies governing data breach responses. I will then provide an overview of Senate Bill 768 and suggest several ways that future legislation can strengthen reporting and response requirements in the future
