An evaluation of auroral all-sky camera observations
From photometric, all-sky camera, and visual observations
of a moderate auroral display, it is found that the
all-sky camera compares favorably with the visual observer
in detecting and recording auroral forms. The visual
observer can make instantaneous observations and so can
detect rapid changes and auroral forms lasting only a few
seconds, whereas the poorer time resolution of the all-sky
camera prevents it from recording very short-lived phenonema.
However, the ability of the all-sky camera to accurately
record the shape and intensity of the majority of auroral
forms allows it to yield more precise and complete information
about these aspects of auroral morphology than is
normally obtained through visual observation.Ye
Computer algebra and the microcomputer
AbstractA discussion of a computer algebra system used to assist students in their study of mathematics. Illustrations include examples that help students to anticipate major results by examining evidence produced by the computer while working in a laboratory setting. Also included are examples that illustrate how the use of a computer algebra system can assist in the problem solving process
10 Pieces for Vincent: A Suite for Mixed Chamber Ensemble
This suite consists of 10 different pieces of music, for a mixed chamber ensemble of flute, clarinet, tenor sax, trumpet, horn, bass trombone, violin, viola, cello and Percussion. Each movement is based on a specific painting by the Dutch painter Vincent van Gogh (1853-1890). In the short time span of a decade, this incredibly misunderstood man created some of the most iconic pieces of art in our culture. As a whole, this suite is meant to depict both the art and life of Vincent, while paying homage to this man who is still relevant in modern society, despite having died over 100 years ago

Novel Scientific Evidence after \u3ci\u3eReese v. Stroh\u3c/i\u3e: The Washington Supreme Court\u27s Love Affair with \u3ci\u3eFrye\u3c/i\u3e
In Reese v. Stroh, the Washington Supreme Court upheld the use of the Frye test as a threshold inquiry in civil cases involving novel scientific evidence. By affirming the decision of the court of appeals, but not its reasoning, the Washington Supreme Court side-stepped the court of appeals\u27s argument for adoption of the Daubert standard in civil cases analyzing ER 702. This Note examines the decision in Reese v. Stroh and concludes that the Washington Supreme Court failed to determine clearly the proper analysis of ER 702 in cases involving novel scientific evidence. It further agrees with Justice Johnson\u27s concurring opinion that the Daubert test provides the appropriate analysis of ER 702 under such circumstances. It recommends that Washington adopt the Daubert standard in all cases involving novel scientific evidence to address best the needs of an increasingly technological society
