Proteins are the most abundant biological macromolecules and, based on their
three-dimensional shape, perform life-sustaining functions. The process by which a
protein assumes its folded shape remains an open question and has intrigued biologist and chemists for decades. Mathematicians have joined forces with the natural scientists and brought with them the tools of differential geometry, which prove powerful for modeling proteins. We explore the method of [3] to model a small subset of proteins using polyhelical space curves. We successfully modeled three alpha-helical repeat proteins. The developed model has demonstrated possible uses in predicting theoretical tertiary structures of proteins given a set of secondary structures--a step in the right direction of solving the protein folding problem. Additionally, we provide insight into the relationship between clashes and the model's stability calculator, which may improve the viability of their model.

An account of the resource
Since the economic reform "Đổi Mới" in 1986, Vietnam's economy has made remarkable progress, which has increased Vietnam’s standard of living significantly. However, the additional wealth has not been shared equally between ethnic groups. The ethnic Vietnamese majority, known as the Kinh, have a poverty rate of only 9 percent, while other ethnic groups have a 51 percent poverty rate in 2010. Among the most impoverished are the Degar, also known as Montagnards or Highlanders, the ethnic minorities that inhabit the Central Highlands of Vietnam. Several Vietnamese social scientists and policy-makers share a common belief that the persistent poverty of the Degar can be explained by alleged shortcomings in the cultures of ethnic minorities. However, by examining the consequences of significant events in the past that still haunts the development of the Degar till today, I will argue that the poverty experienced by the Degar is being conditioned by social and political factors. The second part of the paper explores the potential of microfinance as a tool for poverty alleviation. Despite its potential, the microfinance industry in Vietnam is faced with several constraints that limit its impact such as low interest rate set by state-owned banks and the legal framework surrounding the operation of Microfinance Institutions.

Description
An account of the resource
Circle Sanctuary, as an Ideological State Apparatus (ISA), interpellates Neopagan practitioners into ideologies such as interconnectedness through rituals following the structure of rites of passage. In the liminal stage of rituals, Altered States of Consciousness may be induced due to the physiological and psychological triggers in rituals, which produces psychological effects like hyper-suggestibility in practitioners. From this state of hyper-suggestibility, Circle Sanctuary reverends are able to easily interpellate practitioners into Neopagan ideologies through repetitive chants and other suggestions. In addition, Neopaganism is a felicitous system for this specific historical and cultural moment in America, due to its universalist, activist, and oppositional nature, which appeals to many people as modern Americans face the social and environmental crises of their time.

An account of the resource
For a long time, Iliotibial Band Syndrome (ITBS), a common injury seen in athletes of all different backgrounds, was believed to be due to friction between the iliotibial band (ITB) and the lateral femoral epicondyle of the femur. However, Fairclough et al. 2006 recently proposed a new compression model that looks at the compression of a highly innervated fatty tissue layer beneath the ITB, instead of the pain stemming from the ITB itself. This new model has led researchers to rethink previous beliefs and conduct more research to better understand the syndrome. Under further examination, MRI’s back up Fairclough et al. by revealing the presence of inflammation beneath the ITB in a layer of highly innervated fatty tissue that becomes tightly compressed during 30° flexion, an angle that can be reached by an activity as simple as climbing a flight of stairs. Further research has been performed to reevaluate two precursors that have been found to be associated with ITBS in the past, increased peak hip adduction and increased peak internal knee rotation, to determine whether it would be possible for them to lead to the new compression syndrome. Due to the ability of both of these precursors to pull the ITB tighter than it normally would be, it was concluded that they could increase the pressure the ITB places on the highly innervated fatty tissue layer, resulting in the compression syndrome.

Description
An account of the resource
Billl Cosby's allegations caused one of the most catastrophic identity crises in American history. Between October 16, 2014 and December 30, 2015, over fifty women accused award winning entertainer of sexually assaulting them. Bill Cosby and his public relations personnel used his wholesome, kind hearted television personality to their advantage when responding to the press. They used a series of apologia strategies to focus on image restoration. This research analyzes the apologia genre from three main perspectives: Cosby, his public relations personnel, and his surrogates. The defense of Bill Cosby was achieved by the attempt to attack his accusers, the use of the strategy of avoidance and confusion, and the bolstering of both his philanthropic and fictional images.

Václav Havel is one the main European dissidents and political leaders that helped bring the change from the old style communist regimes to capitalist democracies. Havel’s experience of living and playwriting under the Czechoslovakia’s communist regime and eventually becoming their democratically elected president greatly influenced his ideology of stressing the importance of human conscience. The political philosophy of human conscience falls into two main camps freedom of expression, which includes free thought, identity, and natural rights. The other factor is the idea of responsibility which evolves from non-political means to political means, and eventually global responsibility. Havel’s human conscience is rooted in a tradition of Czech humanism and Havel’s life experiences.

An account of the resource
This paper explores the views of Abigail Adams, wife of second President of the United States John Adams. Adams has been called an early feminist thinker because of her outspoken comments in written communication about how women ought to be treated. This paper explores the extent and depth of these comments by reviewing her extensive written communication legacy throughout different periods of her life. Examination of Abigail's early life, early marriage to John, life during the Revolution, life during John's Presidency, and late life reveal that she was not the cut and dry feminist that people believed her to be, but rather, acted in many ways like a woman of her time. This is not to say that Abigail did not have her bold, rebellious moments, as this paper highlights.

Description
An account of the resource
A semidiscrete curve-shortening flow continuously deforms a polygon in the direction of an inward normal until it shrinks to a point. We are interested in the long-time behavior of polygons under such flows. Is there a semidiscrete flow under which all polygons become asymptotically regular? This is an open question, but we provide numerical evidence to suggest that the recent β-polygon flow of Glickenstein and Liang produces regular polygons. It is known that triangles become regular under the β-polygon flow. Using a rescaled flow in which a regular polygon is a fixed point, we note how side lengths and angles evolve under the β-polygon flow and conjecture that all quadrilaterals become rhombic and polygons with more than 5 vertices become regular.

An account of the resource
The effects of task difficulty and task type on physiological arousal levels and task performance were examined by testing participants’ physiological arousal levels on a physiograph machine and scoring how well they performed on given tasks. Participants were given simple, medium, and complex tasks in either a quantitative or verbal condition, for which questions were chosen from the GRE. Three 3x2 mixed design analyses of variance were conducted to test significance between task difficulty and physiological arousal levels, task difficulty and type of task on performance scores, and type of task and physiological arousal levels. Significance was found in the main effects of task difficulty on physiological arousal levels, task difficulty on performance scores, type of task on performance scores, and the interaction of type of task and task difficulty on performance scores. There was no significant correlation found between physiological arousal levels and performance scores.

Ghost Folklore at Ripon College by Rebekha Crockett
Description
An account of the resource
Ghost folklore has existed in most cultures throughout history. While many would consider the days of ghouls and superstitions to be long gone, it seems that ghost stories are thriving. In fact, ghost stories are of great importance to contemporary culture. This case study of a small, purportedly haunted, Midwestern college, provides insight into the phenomenon of American college campus folklore. Using various anthropological theories, this study explores the prevalence of belief in ghosts, various ghost stories and, more importantly, what these stories reflect about campus culture.

Both Hume and Smith are influential philosophers and economists, and wrote some of the most important historical works in the beginnings of the study of economics. Both men wrote a variety of essays and publications on the subject, and were both published and respected men in their days. Hume and Smith have different writings with different focuses: Hume primarily focused on philosophy, while much of Smith’s writings centered on economics based on philosophy. While they may not have always agreed, there is a definite link between the two writers, and they are more similar than not in their writings.

An account of the resource
The declining readership of poetry has caused concern amongst scholars, leading them to ask questions: is poetry too difficult or too elitist? These concerns arise because of poetry's dependence of scholars by generating a new audience that appreciates lively performances of the poet's marginalized identity. No one has been more successful on the slam stage than four time National Poetry Slam champion Patricia Smith, as her performances harken back to poetry's roots in orality. This paper examines how Smith's slam poetry imitates the intimate relationship between the storyteller and the listener from oral cultures, drawing parallels to authorship and identity, performance and composition, and modern and oral audiences.

Neutral lipid metabolism of the rotifer Brachionus plicatilis during periods of starvation by Konner Feldhus
Subject
The topic of the resource
Biology
Description
An account of the resource
The rotifer Brachionus plicatilis is a halophilic invertebrate often used for research and feeding young fish. One concern in this work is to provide young fish with energy-rich lipids. Past research suggests that neutral lipids serve a primarily structural role in rotifers, while other research suggests that neutral lipids are broken down for energy during starvation of rotifers, but these ideas are not mutually exclusive. In this research, Nile Red staining technique was used to quantify neutral lipids during starvation coupled with liquid chromatography mass spectrometry (LCMS) to identify specific lipids present during periods of starvation. Results demonstrate that lipids are used for energy during periods of starvation up to the 48–hour point and that there is a change in fatty acid composition over longer periods of starvation. Thus, lipids appear to be an important biochemical in the storage of energy in rotifers.

The Attorney Generals’ Role in a Polarized Society: How the Office has Evolved and What it Needs to Survive by Nicole Zeman
Subject
The topic of the resource
Politics and Government
Description
An account of the resource
The Judiciary Act of 1879 established the role of the United States Attorney General (AG). The AG is the head attorney for the country, appointed by the President. The role of the Attorney General is to be the head administrator for the DOJ, and represent the United States in legal matters, which may include representing the United States Government in the Supreme Court of the United States and all other courts. From the first Attorney General the office has lacked political neutrality and the waves of political polarization throughout American history have forced the AG to play the political game. Because the President appoints the AG, the Attorney General’s loyalty, which is supposed to be to the public, has steadily prevailed to be directed at the president. The office has progressed gaining the power of precedent and the Department of Justice, which has heightened the power of the AG within society. Attorneys General such as Edmund Randolph, William Wirt, Amos T Akerman, Homer Stille Cummings, John Ashcroft and Loretta Lynch among many other have highlighted the political problem within the position through party and presidential loyalty. To fix the AG’s involvement with party politics, the Supreme Court of the United States must be granted appointment power of the AG with review every four years. The Supreme Court appointment will result in a more stable justice system, a less politicized Attorney General, and loyalty to the people to be restored.
