Does Downloading PowerPoint Slides Before the Lecture Lead to Better Student Achievement?: Reply
This reply responds to a comment by Cannon (2011) that opens the debate on consistency of the effect of downloading PowerPoint slides before lectures on students’ exam performance. Cannon (2011) points out potential endogeneity problems in Chen and Lin (2008) and attempts to explore the unconditional mean effect of downloading PowerPoint slides for the full sample. In this reply, we firstly argue that the estimates in our original article are consistent since the effect of interest is the “conditional†treatment effect but not the unconditional mean effect. We provide explanations for our rationale of estimating the “conditional†treatment effect. Secondly, we propose a modified downloading variable to replicate Cannon’s analysis. Our results suggest that downloading PowerPoint slides before the exam does not produce a significant effect on absent students’ exam performance which is different from the results in Cannon (2011). Our analysis does support Cannon’s argument that students fixed effects are different across different attendance status.
Yi-Fang Lin Piano Recital Program Notes
This report is Yi-Fang Lin Piano Recital Program Notes on April., 23, 2019. The two pieces on the program include Piano Sonata in C minor, K.457 by W.A. Mozart, and Piano Concerto No.1 in F-Sharp minor, Op.1 by S. Rachmaninoff. The note will introduce the life of two composers, the compositional background of individual work, and the analysis of the structure, including tonal design and thematic material in each work
Li Fang-Kuei (1902-1987)
Fang-Kuei Li was one of the foremost scholars of Thai and Sino-Tibetan studies and a major contributor to Amerind studies. Born in China, he was one of the early scholars sent to the United States to study. He had developed an interest in language while learning English, Latin, and German as part of his studies in China, and so he decided to study linguistics in the United States. In 1924, he went to the University of Michigan at Ann Arbor, receiving his B.A. 2 years later, then moved to the University of Chicago, where he received his M.A. and Ph.D., studying with Edward Sapir, Leonard Bloomfield, and Carl Darling Buck

Kramerana hypera Blocker & Fang
Kramerana hypera Blocker & Fang (Figs. 49A 3, 49B 3, 51H 1, 53) Kramerana hypera Blocker & Fang, 1992: 344–345 [original description, illustration, morphology]; Zahniser & Webb, 2004: 671 [morphology]; Zanol, 2008: 45 [catalogue]; Zahniser, 2007 [online catalogue]; Freytag & Gaiani, 2017 [online catalogue] Diagnosis. K. hypera can be distinguished from other species in the genus by its size (male 4.0 mm), aedeagus with broad base and with narrow shaft arising posterodorsally from base, pygofer with distinct posteroventral tooth, aedeagus apex with short flanges arising from posterior side or laterally, aedeagus posteroventral corner not distinctly angled or projecting and with irregular teeth, ventral margin of aedeagus distinctly constricted caudad of anteroventral corner, and gonopore subapical on anterior side. Material examined. Holotype ♂ examined [SEMC]. Distribution. K. hypera is known from Peru (Junín Dept.), collected at 3260m elevation. Remarks. K. hypera is very similar to K. junina, but K. hypera is larger in size and possesses some differences in the male genitalia. The aedeagus of the holotype of K. hypera (Fig. 51H 1) was imaged directly next to that of a specimen of K. junina (Fig. 51H 2), showing the differences between the two—that of K. hypera larger in size, with ventral margin more distinctly emarginate (not well-figured by Blocker & Fang 1992), and posteroventral margin with minute teeth. Also, as noted by Zahniser & Webb (2004), the style apophysis of K. hypera is longer, extending well beyond the apex of the connective stem.Published as part of Zahniser, James N., 2021, Revision of the New World leafhopper tribe Faltalini (Hemiptera: Cicadellidae: Deltocephalinae) and the evolution of brachyptery, pp. 1-160 in Zootaxa 4954 (1) on page 81, DOI: 10.11646/zootaxa.4954.1.1, http://zenodo.org/record/469077

Using Google Analytics for improving library website content and design: a case study
Google Analytics is a free web analytics solution that provides webmasters with insightful information about how visitors find and interact with their websites. In this case study, we have experimented in using Google Analytics to analyze two of our websites: The Rutgers-Newark Law Library main website and The New Jersey Digital Legal Library website. It was used to monitor our visitors' browsing activities and viewing behaviors for three months. Based on our findings from Google Analytics reports, we have redesigned our website. Subsequent data collected by Google Analytics have confirmed that our new design better fits the information needs of our visitors and librarians. Google Analytics is very powerful and can be used for almost any website. We believe that other libraries will benefit from using Google Analytics as well. Limitations of Google Analytics are also discussed based on our experience with it.The published version of this article is available at: http://www.webpages.uidaho.edu/~mbolin/lpp2007.htm"June, 2007

As external pressure is applied to a pack of disordered particles, the system will be condensed into an amorphous jammed state possessing excess low-frequency vibrations and liquid-like mechanical responses, where the shear modulus (G) vanishes and the bulk modulus (K) holds a finite value. The criterion to judge whether such an ensemble of particles can be regarded as a continuous medium is still ambiguous due to the complexity of the system brought up by the non-affinity describing to what extent the internal particles tend to slide away from each other. In this article, by building the 2D packing derived networks, a ’liquid-solid’ transition governed by networks’ graph topology is investigated. This transition sheds a light on designing mechanical metamaterials, which permits one to separately tune its moduli or fix the Poisson ratio as well as enhance its stiffness. Our work reveals a more comprehensive understanding of how topological factors take effects on mechanical responses of randomly packing derived networks and provide more freedom in experimentally constructing tunable mechanical metamaterials.On the other hand, deformed Kagome lattices which perform fancy topological properties, are characterized by its polarization. This polarization can be calculated from its unit cell’s geometry. Domain wall between two kinds of polarization lattices can be either self-stress state or soft mode. Self-stress states, in which net force is zero with nonzero structural elements forces play an important role in load-bearing ability of ideal central-force networks’ structures and network consisting of real materials with bending forces. Soft mode demonstrated as a deformation of the structure with zero elements forces is a zero-frequency vibrational mode with zero vibrational energy. By tailoring the localization of self-stress states and soft modes, we can achieve diverse mechanical properties such as certain buckling of selective elements, particular force chains in the structure and vibration transformation along chosen path.當外部壓力施加到一堆無序的顆粒上時,该 系統 会 凝 聚 為 非晶体的阻塞 形 態, 这时体 系 具有 大 量的低頻振動 模式 和類似液體的機械響應 状态 此时该体系的 剪切模量( G )消失,體積模量 K 为 有限的值。由於非 仿射 性描述 的 內部顆粒趨向於彼此滑動離開的程度所帶來的系統的複雜性,判斷這種顆粒的整體是否可以視為連續介質的標準仍然不明確。在本文中,通過構建 2D 堆積 衍生網絡,研究了由網絡圖拓撲控制的 液固 過渡。這一轉變為機械超材料的設計提供了啟示,它使人們可以分別調整其模量或固定泊鬆比並增強其強度。我們的工作揭示了對拓撲因素如何影響隨機堆積派生網絡的機械響 應的更全面的理解,並為實驗構造可調機械超材料 提供了更多自由。另一方面,表現出奇特的拓撲特性的變形的Kagome 晶格的特徵是其極化。極化可以根據其晶胞的幾何形狀來計算。兩種極化晶格之間的疇壁可以是自應力狀態或軟模式。在自應力狀態下,淨力為零且結構元素非零,力在理想的中心力網絡的結構和由具有彎曲力的真實材料組成的網絡的承載能力中起著重要作用。 已經 證明具有零元素力的結構變形的軟模式是具有零振動能量的零頻率振動模式。通過調整自應力狀態和軟模式的局部化,我們可以實現多種機械性能,例如選擇元件的某些屈曲,結構中特定的力鏈以及沿選定路徑的振動轉換。Fang, Chenchao = 基於非仿射到仿射轉變的可控彈性特性和拓撲超構材料編輯 / 房臣超.Ph.D. Chinese University of Hong Kong 2020.Includes bibliographical references (leaves 76-91).Abstracts also in Chinese.Title from PDF title page (viewed on October 19, 2022).Fang, Chenchao = Ji yu fei fang she dao fang she zhuan bian de ke kong dan xing te xing he tuo pu chao gou cai liao bian ji / Fang Chenchao
