Variations on the Author
“Variations on the Author” discusses two of Eduardo Coutinho’s recent films (Um Dia na Vida, from 2010, and Últimas Conversas, posthumously released in 2015) and their contribution to the general question of documentary authorship. The director’s filmography is characterized by a consistent yet self-effacing form of authorial self-inscription: Coutinho often features as an interviewer that rather than express opinions propels discourses; an interviewer that is good at listening. This mode of self-inscription characterizes him as an author who is not expressive but who is nonetheless markedly present on the screen. In Um Dia na Vida, however, Coutinho is completely absent form the image, while Últimas Conversas, on the contrary, includes a confessional prologue that moves the director from the margins to the center of his films. This article examines the ways in which these works stand out in the filmography of a director who offers new insights into the notion of cinematic authorship
Phonological awareness and phonological acquitisition in children with cochlear implants.
Color poster with text and graphs describing research conducted by Emily Axelson, Kathryn Borgmann, Rebecca Derrick, and Erin Ellis, advised by Dr. Timothy Lippold.The purpose of this study was to investigate if, matched by age and gender, there are significant differences in phonological production skills between normally hearing children and children with cochlear implants.University of Wisconsin--Eau Claire Office of Research and Sponsored Programs

Catherine Coffill Ellis lost custody of her three children in March, with her ex-husband gaining custody of two of the children. Timothy J. Ellis, 26, of Jacksonville, Fla., was arrested by Jacksonville police and charged with aggravated assault and second-degree murder in the death of Timothy Ellis, who died four days after being struck by the elder Ellis on June 4. Catherine Ellis\u27 attorney, David Paris of Bath, says Timothy Ellis\u27 history of violence was overlooked by the court when it gave him custody of the younger Ellis and his sister Teresa
Customer Discovery Best Practice for Understanding Siloxane Nuisance in Digester/Landfill Gas: A Journey from ISU Innovation Corps Spring 2018 Cohort to National Science Foundation (NSF) Innovation Corps (I - Corps) Program Spring 2019 Cohort Nashville
The purpose of this creative component is to tell the journey of our research in the form of customer discovery from ISU I Corps Cohort spring 2018 to NSF National Innovation Corps spring 2019. The use of siloxanes is increasing everyday due to the physicochemical properties that are appropriate to be included in the formulations of a large variety of consumer products. The aim of this creative component is to provide the current state of knowledge concerning the presence of siloxanes in digester/landfill gas. ESF Environmental Solutions through participation in NSF National Innovation Corps conducted 110 customer discovery interviews across 15 U.S. states. The interview question to different customer archetype in WWTP’s and landfill enterprise consisted of asking them the problems faced during energy generation. Over the journey of interviews, it was learnt that siloxane nuisance affects the operation and economy of energy generation equipment in the form of increased maintenance and downtime. The renewed interest of industry in biogas pretreatment is primarily owing to the Renewable Identification Number (RIN) credits which is a currency of Renewable Fuel Standards (RFS). Payback period is the main concerning factor for industry prior to technology adoption. Biogas pretreatment for RNG is being attributed to economic benefits in the form of decreased engine maintenance costs and environmental credits in the form of RINs.</p

Industrial wastewater treatment with the static granular bed reactor versus the UASB
Performance of the static granular bed reactor (SGBR) was compared to the upflow anaerobic sludge blanket (UASB) reactor. A statistically designed study was performed to establish significance of differences between the two reactors operating at three different hydraulic retention times (HRTs); 8, 16, and 24 hours. The reactors treated a synthetic wastewater composed of sucrose and non-fat dry milk (NFDM). In the experiment-wise analysis, chemical oxygen demand (COD) removal was significantly higher for the SGBR. Specifically, the SGBR outperformed the UASB at an HRT of eight hours with a COD removal of 90.7% versus 77.5%. Specific COD removal was higher for the UASB ranging from 0.19 to 0.94 gCOD/(gVS·d) versus 0.11 to 0.34 gCOD/(gVS·d) for the SGBR.This proceeding is published as Evans, Eric Anthony, and Timothy G. Ellis. "Industrial wastewater treatment with the static granular bed reactor versus the UASB." In WEFTEC 2005, pp. 2219-2231. Water Environment Federation, 2005.

Anaerobic municipal wastewater treatment with the static granular bed reactor
Anaerobic treatment of municipal wastewater was successfully performed with the Static Granular Bed Reactor (SGBR). Five-day, carbonaceous biochemical oxygen demand (CBOD5) and total suspended solids were reduced to less than 30 mg/L in the effluent at HRTs of 24 hours and above and at an HRT of eight hours. Suspended solids accumulated within the reactor on top of the granule bed, and were easily wasted from a valved port. Due to the limiting rate of hydrolysis, biodegradable suspended solids were not fully metabolized, and methane recovery of chemical oxygen demand (COD) removed by the reactor was incomplete.This proceeding is published as Evans, Eric Anthony, and Timothy G. Ellis. "Anaerobic municipal wastewater treatment with the static granular bed reactor." In WEFTEC 2005, pp. 2705-2711. Water Environment Federation, 2005. Copyright 2005 Water Environment Federation.

Timothy Meyer serves as a contributing author for UN report
Assistant Professor Timothy Meyer served as a contributing author for the United Nations Industrial Development Organization\u27s report titled Networks for Prosperity: Connecting Development Knowledge Beyond 2015. The document, which was released during November, analyzes the nexus between the global connectedness of a country and its economic success, sustainability and government effectiveness. Meyer was one of only approximately 20 academic and practical experts from around the world selected to serve as a contributor after a global call for proposals.
