[Introduction to] Platitudes: & the New Black Aesthetic
No full textA playful, irreverent look at the African-American literary community.
Trey Ellis\u27s uproariously funny debut novel Platitudes, first published in 1988, takes on conflicts within the African American literary community. Dewayne Wellington, a failing black experimental novelist, and Isshee Ayam, a radical feminist author, collaborate on Dewayne\u27s latest sexist comedy. Alternately telling the story about the coming of age of Earle and Dorothy - two black middle-class teenagers, sex-starved in New York City - the battling writers sneak ever, and dangerously, closer to reconciling their literary disputes.
This edition of Platitudes also includes The New Black Aesthetic, a groundbreaking essay by Ellis that appeared in the journal Callaloo.https://scholarship.richmond.edu/bookshelf/1085/thumbnail.jp

2023 Strategic Plan for The Meat Shed
No full textAt the end of June 2022, the author began the process of establishing client relations with a local business in Pittsburg, Kansas, The Meat Shed. One of the co-owners, Matt DeMoss, agreed to let his establishment be a client for a graduate project. After initial meetings. The Meat Shed was seeking to expand their brand identity to potential stakeholders of the Pittsburg community and the surrounding areas. This idea from the client sparked the interest of the author to create a strategic plan to assist in increasing awareness and engagement between stakeholders and the client. In this strategic plan the author outlines strategies, tactics, and research methods for The Meat Shed to use in their business marketing strategy. Intertwined in the strategic plan is a theoretical framework, Social Marketing Theory and Networking Theory, the author uses as a guide to create deliverables and conduct analysis about The Meat Shed organization and its stakeholders
Localization and Transport of Biomolecules on 2D Hexagonal Boron Nitride Surfaces
No full textThis report will investigate the manipulation of biomolecules on 2D hexagonal boron nitride (hBN) crystal surfaces. The goal of this research is to explore the potential for a device that utilizes the interaction between biomolecules and hBN as a new approach to protein sequencing. Our hypothesis is that molecules adsorbed to hBN surfaces can be unfolded and moved at a controlled velocity through the use of shear horizontal surface acoustic waves. These surface acoustic waves utilize acoustoelectric effects that create forces on polarizable molecules. Until this point, the use of surface acoustic waves for manipulation of molecules has not been explored in the framework of single-molecule sequencing. Along with this, the surface interaction between biomolecules and hBN has been investigated primarily with simulations, while experimental confirmations are still lacking. To address this gap in the field, we conducted experiments to fluorescently image lambda DNA, M13mp18 DNA, and α-synuclein proteins adsorbed to hBN surfaces and analysed their free diffusion behavior. We subsequently designed, fabricated and characterized shear horizontal surface acoustic wave devices compatible with measurements in fluid and with an inverted fluorescence microscopy setup. Here, we studied the behavior of the same molecules adsorbed to an hBN surface when subject to acoustic actuation. It was found that limited diffusion effects were visible for α-synuclein proteins and M13mp18 DNA. However, it was possible to observe fragmented lambda DNA freely diffusing on the hBN surface. When acoustically actuated it was found that α-synuclein proteins and M13mp18 DNA located on the hBN surface could not be manipulated. Lambda DNA molecules that were in contact with the hBN surface could be manipulated through acoustic actuation. These findings open up further research opportunities for the use of shear horizontal waves in manipulation of molecules on 2D material surfaces.Mechanical Engineering | Mechatronic System Design (MSD
Transplant ethics under scrutiny – responsibilities of all medical professionals
No full textAbstract In this text, we present and elaborate ethical
challenges in transplant medicine related to organ procurement
and organ distribution, together with measures
to solve such challenges. Based on internationally acknowledged
ethical standards, we looked at cases of organ
procurement and distribution practices that deviated from
such ethical standards. One form of organ procurement is
known as commercial organ trafficking, while in China the
organ procurement is mostly based on executing prisoners,
including killing of detained Falun Gong practitioners
for their organs. Efforts from within the medical community
as well as from governments have contributed to provide
solutions to uphold ethical standards in medicine. The
medical profession has the responsibility to actively promote
ethical guidelines in medicine to prevent a decay of
ethical standards and to ensure best medical practices
