Report on Meteorological Research March 1, 1935 (m-1)
No full textThe object of the report was to elucidate in detail the various features of the research program in meteorology being carried on at the Daniel Guggenheim Airship Institute in Akron, Ohio. Mr. L. J. Fangman, of the U.S. Weather Bureau, was collaborating with the author in carrying out work such as a study of autographic records of the various meteorological elements during frontal passages with a view to the possible prediction of the intensity of the accompanying disturbance as it may affect the operation of aircraft and a study of atmospheric gustiness with a view to finding the dependence between frequency end amplitude of velocity fluctuations and the vertical temperature and velocity gradients

No full textThis report is on the investigations of frontal phenomena at the Daniel Guggenheim Airship Institute in Akron, Ohio from January 1, 1935 through August 1, 1936.

Mr. R.C. Robinson of the Weather Bureau cooperated with the author in carrying out the investigation. The object of the investigation was to determine the intensity of the atmospheric disturbances (i.e. rapidity of wind shift and gustiness) accompanying the passage of cold fronts, along with a study of the characteristics of the air masses involved and other features which might affect the intensity of the disturbance. The report treated thirty cold fronts which passed the station during 1935 to 1936

La importancia de llamarse Daniel Santos o la muerte y la resurrección del autor en una sola fabulación
No full textThis work attemps to show that reflections on the essay “The death of the author”, written by Roland Barthes, have enormous resonance in the second novel by Luis Rafael Sánchez, that is La importancia de llamarse Daniel Santos. In this text not only is the disappearance of the author evident, but also the novel allows the consideration of some essential aspects: the reader (real and implicit) who has a fundamental role in the narration; the function of the author, Michel Foucault’s theoretical proposal; and the self-reference, a narrative tool that allows us to speak of an authorial resurrection in the story and estimate the novel as an autho(r)fiction.En este trabajo se pretende demostrar que las reflexiones del ensayo “La muerte del autor”, de Roland Barthes, tienen gran resonancia en la segunda novela de Luis Rafael Sánchez, me refiero a La importancia de llamarse Daniel Santos. En ésta no sólo se hace evidente la desaparición del autor, pues la novela también remite a algunos aspectos importantes: el lector (real e implícito) que tiene un papel fundamental en la narración; la función autor, propuesta teórica de Michel Foucault, y la autorreferencia, herramienta narrativa que nos permite hablar de una resurrección autoral en el relato y considerar a la novela como una auto(r)ficción. nguage:EN-US; mso-bidi-language:AR-SA'> asesinado”

Meet Daniel Melnick author of The Ash Tree
No full textMeet Daniel Melnick author of The Ash Tree. It tells a timeless story of the romance and marriage between an American Armenian girl and an immigrant who survived the 1915 Armenian Genocide in Turkey. In the aftermath of the Genocide from the 20s through the early 70s, the couple and their three children become vivid, quintessentially American characters, only for tragedy to find them again, echoing the staggering losses of 1915. The cover painting with its frayed, whitewashed frame is by the author’s wife, Jeanette Arax Melnick, and the novel is based partly on the lives of her family. Combining history and fictionalized memoir, The Ash Tree is an important, beautifully written novel of survival, new life, and heartbreak. Available from independent bookstores, Barnes and Noble, and Amazon.com. Further information at www.danielmelnick.com. Price: $25. ISBN: 9780981854762
