An integrated modeling and risk analysis tool for mine water interactions
No full textPoor mine water management can lead to corporate, environmental and social risks. These risks become more pronounced as mining operations move into areas of water scarcity and/or increase climatic variability while also managing increased demand, lower ore grades and increased strip ratios. Therefore, it is vital that mine sites better understand these risks in order to implement management practices to address them. Systems models provide an effective approach to understand complex networks, particularly across multiple scales. Previous work has represented mine water interactions using systems model on a mine site scale. Here, we expand on that work by present an integrated tool that uses a systems modeling approach to represent mine water interactions on a site and regional scale and then analyses the risks associated with events stemming from those interactions. A case study is presented to represent three indicative corporate, environmental and social risks associated with a mine site that exists in a water scarce region. The tool is generic and flexible, and can be used in many scenarios to provide significant potential utility to the mining industry

Mflme Juha
No full textThis collaborative project began when the Ford Foundation approached Gerry Mulgrew (director of Communicado Co. theatre group), in search of experienced arts practitioners to form links and opportunities with the Tanzanian theatre group, Parapanda Arts Lab. Mulgrew chose McIntyre to help him develop workshop techniques that involved ‘performed’ drawing and storytelling. The aim was to use these techniques to enable creative conversations between actors, that cut across cultural and linguistic boundaries. McIntyre was invited to undertake a residency with Communicado Co. in order to explore both conventional theatrical approaches to improvisatory workshop and those related to the placement and community-based activities he organises for fine art undergraduates at Northumbria. The residency generated the workshop process that equipped McIntyre to be Visual Art Director of the multi-media performance Mflme Juha. McIntyre also used the drawing practices on which the workshop technique was constructed to explore the visualisation of short stories for children. Seven Stories (the National Centre for Children’s Books) commissioned McIntyre to contribute to a documentary TV programme (McIntyre worked with author David Almond [winner of the Whitbread award], actor Kevin Wheatley [Inspector Morse and Auf Weidesein Pet] and the director/producer Lesley Duncanson), to help describe the development of a narrative idea through the contrasting acts of writing, drawing and reading. The result was ‘The Savage’ (screened on ITV, 3rd September 2006). As a follow-up, McIntyre was invited to be artist-in-residence for ‘the Big Draw’, a weekend event in which visual narratives were developed in partnership with writers and actors
Mrs. McIntyre’s Fateful Struggles: The Innocent Bystander, Mrs. McIntyre, is Inherently Good in Flannery O’Connor’s “The Displaced Person”
No full textIn Flannery O’Connor’s short story “The Displaced Person” there are many themes that pertain to religion, but in addition O’Connor develops secular concepts throughout the story. One such character, Mrs. McIntyre comes across to the readers as a self centered, racist, and xenophobic woman. She treats her tenant farmers, the Shortleys, Astor, Sulk, and the Guizacs with great disrespect and wants to or threatens to dismiss all of them at different points throughout the story. Critics of Mrs. McIntyre, such as Miles Orvell author of Invisible Parade: The Fiction of Flannery O’Connor, argues that her character is unsympathetic and selfish by nature. In addition to Orvell’s claims, other critics including Linda C. Norman author of the thesis, entitled, Secular Protagonists in Flannery O’Connor’s Fiction suggests that Mrs. McIntyre is a mercenary and obsessed with Materialism. One last critic Karl-Heinz Westarp author of Precision and Depth In Flannery O’Connor’s Short Stories argues that Mrs. McIntyre struggles with her moral conscience and is unaware of her high level of ignorance. Although Mrs. McIntyre has a poor character and a meager temperament, all of her attitudes, thoughts, and opinions are shaped by the characters around her and the culture in which she lives. Mrs. McIntyre has struggled personally with relationships and financial troubles which added to her derogatory outlook on Mr. Guizac’s situation. Flannery O’Connor develops Mrs. McIntyre as an inherently good woman who is an innocent bystander with a strong moral conscience, who helps the Guizacs seek refuge and gives Mr. Guizac a job and a home, but as the story goes on her ideologies and morals are influenced by the other characters around her, such as, Mr. and Mrs. Shortley, her financial situation, and the culture in which she lives in
Using Cigarette Data for An Introduction to Multiple Regression
No full textThis article, created by Lauran McIntyre of North Carolina State University, describes a dataset containing information for twenty-five brands of domestic cigarettes. The information collected includes: measurements of weight, tar, nicotine and carbon monoxide. The dataset can be used to illustrate multiple regression, outliers, and collinearity. Speaking to this, the author states: "The dataset is useful for introducing the ideas of multiple regression and provides examples of an outlier and a pair of collinear variables."
