Handwritten Dedication to Jeremiah Farrell from Marc Romano, author of Crossworld
No full textA handwritten note of appreciation sent to Jeremiah Farrell by Marc Romano, the author of Crossworld: One Man\u27s Journey into America\u27s Crossword Obsession . Farrell was the renown creator of the 1996 Election Day Puzzle that predicted the election by allowing for Clinton or Bobdole to be valid responses. Romano mentions the puzzle several times in his own work and corresponded with Farrell regarding his book and the best puzzle in the world .https://digitalcommons.butler.edu/faculty_images/1001/thumbnail.jp
Jeremiah Farrell with Dennis Sasha, author of Puzzling Adventures: Tales of Strategy, Logic and Mathematical Skill
No full textJeremiah Farrell is awarded the title of Omniheurist, First-Class for solving the eloborate embedded puzzle in Dennis Sasha\u27s book, Puzzling Adventures . The cryptic puzzle required Dr. Farrell to travel to New York City on a certain day to meet two persons in yellow with one wearing a red wig. The event was featured in articles in Indy Star and the New York Sun.https://digitalcommons.butler.edu/faculty_images/1003/thumbnail.jp

Machine Translation Markers in Post-Edited Machine Translation Output
No full textThe author has conducted an experiment for two consecutive years with postgraduate university students in which half do an unaided human translation (HT) and the other half post-edit machine translation output (PEMT). Comparison of the texts produced shows - rather unsurprisingly - that post-editors faced with an acceptable solution tend not to edit it, even when often more than 60% of translators tackling the same text prefer an array of other different solutions. As a consequence, certain turns of phrase, expressions and choices of words occur with greater frequency in PEMT than in HT, making it theoretically possible to design tests to tell them apart. To verify this, the author successfully carried out one such test on a small group of professional translators. This implies that PEMT may lack the variety and inventiveness of HT, and consequently may not actually reach the same standard. It is evident that the additional post-editing effort required to eliminate what are effectively MT markers is likely to nullify a great deal, if not all, of the time and cost-saving advantages of PEMT. However, the author argues that failure to eradicate these markers may eventually lead to lexical impoverishment of the target language
Poly[3,4-ethylene dioxythiophene (EDOT)-co-1,3,5-tri[2-(3,4-ethylene dioxythienyl)]-benzene (EPh)] copolymers (PEDOT-co-EPh): optical, electrochemical and mechanical properties
No full textPublisher's PDFPEDOT-co-EPh copolymers with systematic variations in composition were prepared by electrochemical polymerization from mixed monomer solutions in acetonitrile. The EPh monomer is a trifunctional crosslinking agent with three EDOTs around a central benzene ring. With increasing EPh content, the color of the copolymers changed from blue to yellow to red due to decreased absorption in the near infrared (IR) spectrum and increased absorption in the visible spectrum. The surface morphology changed from rough and nanofibrillar to more smooth with rounded bumps. The electrical transport properties dramatically decreased with increasing EPh content, resulting in coatings that either substantially lowered the impedance of the electrode (at the lowest EPh content), leave the impedance nearly unchanged (near 1% EPh), or significantly increase the impedance (at 1% and above). The mechanical properties of the films were substantially improved with EPh content, with the 0.5% EPh films showing an estimated 5× improvement in modulus measured by AFM nanoindentation. The PEDOT-co-EPh copolymer films were all shown to be non-cytotoxic toward and promote the neurite outgrowth of PC12 cells. Given these results, we expect that the films of most interest for neural interface applications will be those with improved mechanical properties that maintain the improved charge transport performance (with 1% EPh and below).University of Delaware.
