    [ES] La propuesta de poesía táctil de Jason Edward Lewis supone una innovación en el ámbito poético: genera una nueva actitud en el lector, fundamentada en una interacción continua y necesaria, adopta un carácter lúdico y multimedia, y logra una armonía entre las herramientas formales y la temática abordada. Todas estas cualidades derivan en la naturaleza poética de una obra genuina, original y sobresaliente dentro de su campo, que se ubica con éxito en el paradigma cultural de nuestro tiempo.

    The biplanar bicycle is an experimental vehicle configuration that has been the focus of recent autonomous vehicle research at Virginia Tech. Although the vehicle can be advantageous due to its zero-radius turning and ability to traverse discontinuous terrain, one key disadvantage of the configuration is that it lacks a stable reference frame from which observations of the surroundings can be based. A solution to this problem is presented here in the form of actuators designed to actively control the oscillations of a reference frame. The orientation of a camera attached to a mast extended above the vehicle is specifically considered. Autonomous operation of the vehicle could utilize image processing to navigate, but the camera must maintain a fixed orientation for the data to be valid. The work presented examines not only the regulation of the reference frame, but also the effects of such regulation on the velocity response of the vehicle. Practical considerations such as sensors, actuators, cost, and complexity are addressed. Although this work is centered around the biplanar bicycle, similar approaches can be extended to orientation of an arbitrary body in space. iii For my wife, who is far more precious than rubies (Proverbs 31:10). iv Acknowledgments I consider this accomplishment a milestone in my life, but it would not have been possible without the help of countless others. I would like to thank all of the teachers who have contributed to my education. They are all represented here in some manner. Although biology or Spanish do not appear in the text, the inspiration of such mentors has been written in my heart. I would like to thank Dr. Pushkin Kachroo for the patience he has afforded me through countless diversions, and Dr. John Bay for his advice and expe..

    Early Risk, Attention, and Brain Activation in Adolescents Born Preterm

    The relations among early cumulative medical risk, cumulative environmental risk, attentional control, and brain activation were assessed in 15 – 16-year-old adolescents who were born preterm. Functional magnetic resonance imaging found frontal, temporal, and parietal cortex activation during an attention task with greater activation of the left superior-temporal and left supramarginal gyri associated with better performance. Individual differences in early cumulative risk are related to patterns of brain activation such that medical risk is related to left parietal cortex activation and environmental risk is related to temporal lobe activation. The findings suggest that early risk is related to less mature patterns of brain activation, including reduced efficiency of processing and responding to stimuli.This is the accepted version of the following article: Carmody, D.
