    Residential Precooling on a high-solar grid: Impacts across home designs and California climate zones: Data Repository

    No full text
    Data supporting the research for the article "Residential Precooling on a high-solar grid: Impacts across home designs and California climate zones." This study focused on analyzing building precooling in the residential sector in California. We analyze four single-family home designs in 16 climate zones to determine precooling's impact on peak electricity loads, CO2 emissions, and residential electricity costs. use EnergyPlus to simulate 480 distinct precooling schedules as well as a constant setpoint schedule as a reference point over a three month period. We find that for most building types and locations, there exists a precooling schedule that simultaneously reduces all three target variables.This data repository includes three main datasets. The first dataset includes information on the emissions associated with electricity demand in the CAISO region. This data was generated by tracking emissions and generation from powerplants within the CAISO region, as well as accounting for the trade of electricity between balancing authorities (and the associated traded emissions). The second dataset contains information about the buildings simulated in this study. These buildings came from NREL's ResStock project and are available for download free online. Their properties are summarized in the table included here. The third dataset is a summary of the results of each precooling simulation. These are aggregate results over the three month simulation period, with a separate table for climate zone and building combination.

    Letter from Fred S. Lee to Cyrus S. Avery, dated April 14, 1937 complimenting Mr. Tennyson as Paymaster for Mayes County, Oklahoma along with Avery as WPA administrator.The Cyrus S. Avery Collection chronicles the life and times of Cyrus Stevens Avery. Known as the 'Father of Route 66', Avery served in government positions and elected offices as well as in highway associations that led him to have an influential impact on the planning and development of the initial American highway system. Through Avery's involvement with the City of Tulsa, Oklahoma and his own agricultural interests, the collection also documents a growing city and its' rural life in the early twentieth century

    An inconvenient Black history of British musical theatre 1900-1950, lecture concert, Wigmore Hall, 21 September 2021

    This concert celebrated the heritage and importance of Black music and performance to Wigmore Hall and the wider British musical theatre industries. At the invitation of John Gilhooly, Sean Mayes and Sarah K. Whitfield also launched their new book An Inconvenient Black History of British Musical Theatre 1900-1950 (Methuen Drama). Through innovative hybrid concert and discussion form, Mayes and Whitfield discussed the hidden history the book uncovers, the urgency of uncovering the work of Black creative practitioners, and what it means for the future. West End performer Jonathan Andrew Hume (Come from Away, The Lion King) and emerging soprano Esme Sears joined Mayes in performances of songs and repertoire that re-centre Black musical experience. The concert was directed by Shanté Campbell

    Early intervention and prompt corrective action in Europe

    No full text
    The present crisis has revealed that, as expected, much of the safety net for handling failures in the banking system is deficient, particularly for cross-border banks, and the present problems had to be handled by a range of ad hoc measures. The principal new measure that needs to be undertaken in most countries is the implementation of a satisfactory special resolution regime for banks. This paper, however, deals with two further steps that could assist the operation of the safety net. The first is to ensure earlier intervention so there is more time to put a satisfactory rescue or resolution in place. The second is to implement a regime of prompt corrective action (structured early intervention and resolution, SEIR) so that both supervisors and banks know that a regime of increasing intensity will take place according to a strict timetable that will end in the authorities stepping into the bank while it still has positive capital, if the earlier stages are not effective. The paper evaluates the means of doing this in a European environment making use of the experience in the United States. It concludes that, while a lot can be done even within the current framework of national supervision, particularly through pre-positioning, cross-border banks can be better treated either by revising the home-host responsibilities or by moving to a supranational level of responsibility for SEIR for those banks whose continued operation is considered necessary for financial stability in any member state.early intervention; prompt corrective action; cross-border banks; pre-positioning; bank resolution

    Diffusive author(s), cohesive author: Analysis of S/N (1994)

    No full text
    This study indicates the ways in which various aspects of the author(s) are brought forth in Dumb type’s performance art, the S/N production. Previous research has suggested a non-hierarchical organization of Dumb type and the absence of a “privileged author” in Dumb type’s collaborative work, S/N. However, the results that I have investigated from member’s interviews on the creative process of S/N along with my analysis of the recorded images of S/N, indicate a different aspect of the author(s). First, S/N was created through, so to speak, the collective ideas of the members of Dumb type. Further, S/N has at least nine quotations from previous performances, installations, and printed writings, besides the work-in-progress technique. Explicating one of the “author functions” as given by Michel Foucault, each text has plural subjects of the author. However, it has been revealed from members’ interviews that Teiji Furuhashi had a decision-making role in selecting the members’ ideas within the performance. Since then, S/N has had plural subjects of creation; however, Furuhashi is one of the subjects of creation along with the “privileged author.” S/N has plural authors (diffusive authors) yet at the same time, it has a “privileged author,” Teiji Furuhashi (cohesive author)
