Reconsidering the hierarchic position of the family Dytiscacaridae Hajiqanbar and Lindquist: A proposal for its placement as a separate superfamily within Raphignathina
No full textMortazavi et al. (2018) described the family Dytiscacaridae Hajiqanbar and Lindquist and placed it in the superfamily Raphignathoidea in the cohort or hyporder Raphignathina. We now consider that this family should be recognised as a separate superfamily within the Raphignathina, based on a detailed comparison with the other superfamilies in this group. © 2024, Les Amis d'Acarologia.

When film, fashion & interiors collide: Designing the After Darkly Graduate Fashion Show
No full textIn 2013 QUT Interior Design and Fashion Disciplines partnered to design the Catwalk for the QUT After Darkly Graduate Fashion Show. The ephemeral work (catwalk canopy and cinematic affects) was developed through collaboration between the authors based upon an undergraduate interior design unit ‘Filmic Interiors’ in which students were tasked with designing a fashion show. Filmic Interiors exploited the potential of film to influence, understand, and develop novel interior spaces through consideration of mise-en-scene, cinematic effects and atmospheric design strategies engaged by key film directors Jean Pierre Jeunet and Darren Aronofsky. The design outcome represents a hybridisation of student design proposals, contemplating both film and emerging collections from graduate fashion students. \ud

The work explored a number of iterations each testing material qualities and immaterial cinematic affects, as a means to develop new space. The process was led by experimentation undertaken by the designers through previous studio explorations surrounding the theme of ‘Strange Space’ and design practice ‘Making Strange’(Lindquist & Pytel, 2012). In doing so, the work paralleled the material formations of ‘obsessive collections’ and ‘making do’ evident in Jeunet’s scenography, rendering uncanny hybrid space (Ezra, 2008). Evocation of the immaterial found in much of director Aronofsky’s work, also became critical in the atmospheric experience intended for the show.\ud

This paper explores the process of collaboration and material experimentation in design, approached through a filmic lens. It provides insight into what happens when one enters into what can be termed an ‘ecology of production’, whereby the experimental making becomes the collaborative agent between designers, disciplines, and between stage and spectators. Finally it underlines the importance of ‘finding the work’ through material making and testing rather than through more controlled formalistic responses

Review of \u3ci\u3eBirger Sandzen: An Illustrated Biography\u3c/i\u3e By Emory Lindquist
No full textIn Birger Sandzén Lindquist combines biography and art analysis. The first half of the book looks at Sandzen\u27s early years and his decades at Bethany College. After a rich section of forty-nine color plates, the author turns to an examination of the influences on his painting, his methods, the response of art critics, the graphic work, and Sandzen\u27s association with two friends as documented in correspondence. The overall result is a wellrounded picture of a positive adventurer, a regional painter whose work well deserves the recognition afforded it here
Does using SIOP (sheltered instruction observation protocol) help high school ELL students learn elementary mathematics?
No full textThe research question addressed in this project was, Does using SIOP (Sheltered Instruction Observation Protocol) help high school ELL students learn elementary mathematics? It documents one teacher\u27s journey through creating a unique curriculum that incorporates the features of SIOP while addressing Minnesota state standards. The curriculum was developed based on Lindquist\u27s research into the methods that are successful in teaching English Language Learners. The author documents the details of the unit and uses related research literature to construct meaning and validate the study. She describes the struggles and successes of both writing and implementing the curriculum and concludes that: 1) SIOP implementation is time consuming when first adding it to lessons but leads to better student learning and 2) English Language Learners benefit from a curriculum that takes into account their unique learning situation and abilities
Molecular cloning and characterization of the murine acyl-CoA thioesterase CTE-I
No full textMouse cytosolic type I acyl-CoA thioesterase (CTE-I) is a member of the type I family of acylCoA thioesterases. These enzymes hydrolyze acyl-CoAs to non-esterified fatty acids (NEFAs) and Coenzyme A (CoA-SH) and are strongly induced in rodent liver by a diverse group of compounds called peroxisome proliferators. These peroxisome proliferators have been characterized as ligands for the nuclear receptor peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor alpha (PPARalpha). PPARalpha is the key nuclear receptor involved in control of fatty acid metabolism, and regulation of acyl-CoA thioesterases by this receptor functionally links them to fatty acid metabolism. We have cloned and characterized the mouse CTE-I both structurally and functionally. CTE-I is a serine esterase and its activity is dependent on a catalytic triad including amino acid residues serine 232, aspartic acid 324 and histidine 358. We have investigated the role of the PPARalpha in regulating CTE-I expression and conclude that the strong induction of the CTE-I mRNA via peroxisome proliferators is dependent on this receptor. We have demonstrated a partially PPARalpha-dependent mRNA induction by fasting. We have analyzed the CTE-I promoter region and identified a putative peroxisome proliferator response element (PPRE) at -9680 bp upstream of the start methionine (ATG). We initially purified CTE-I from rat and mouse liver cytosol, but later re-investigated the subcellular localization of CTE-I and conclude that it is a nucleo-cytoplasmic protein. We suggest a function for CTE-I in regulating fatty acid metabolism and propose that in the cytosol, CTE-I shuttles fatty acids towards oxidation, thereby limiting esterification and triglyceride synthesis. In the nucleus, CTE-I mediates crosstalk between the nuclear receptors PPARalpha and hepatocyte nuclear factor 4 alpha (HNF-4alpha) by controlling the amount of available agonists/antagonists for these receptors.List of scientific papersI.

Optical properties of the Lindquist-Wheeler cosmology.
No full textWe explore the properties of the Lindquist-Wheeler (LW) lattice cosmological model, and compare these to those of the standard Friedmann-Lemaitre-Robertson-Walker (FLRW)
one. Under certain assumptions, these models have similar large-scale dynamics. Clifton
and Ferreira recently investigated the propagation of light in a spatially
at LW model, and
found that certain optical properties differed. We find that their principal substantive result
is
awed, and provide a correction. Notably, the redshift in the spatially
flat LW model is
the same as in the FLRW model. Therefore the spatially
flat LW cosmology provides no
alternative explanation for observations usually attributed to dark energy.
We consider light propagation in a LW model of negative spatial curvature, as it is
suspected that such a model could explain these observations without the need to invoke dark
energy. A theoretical discussion of such a hyperbolic LW universe is given, and a numerical
prescription developed to investigate its optical properties. At the time of writing, these
have not been fully implemented.
