Queer final
The document summarizes how gays and lesbians have been depicted in films from the 1920s to present. Early films often portrayed them as pedophiles, villains or with disguised sexuality. Key findings were that films like Gigli sexualized lesbians and Rope portrayed the main characters with disguised sexuality as villains. The Celluloid Closet found that Hollywood subtly got around censorship rules by writing between the lines and being subtle enough. There is a need for lesbian film criticism given their continued negative portrayals that serve male fantasies, as seen in Basic Instinct.

Barnard Zine Library: Privileging Creators
Barnard Zine Library policies and procedures are intended to be responsive to and reflective of zine community ethos. Honoring a zine maker's request to remove her zine from one's collection can provoke ethical fisticuffs in a zine librarian/librarian zinester's heart. To whom is the feminist archivist of living authors' materials more responsible, the authors themselves or researchers from the future? And to distant researchers? If we want the voices represented in the Barnard Zine Library--default female, as often as not queer, often young, usually radical, women of color emphasized, etc.--to be part of the archival narrative of the late 20th/early 21st century is it a mistake to privilege the zines' creators wishes? As Kate Eichhorn posits in The Archival Turn in Feminism can "…item-level cataloging of marginal materials holds more potential for subversion than simply digitizing the same materials." even for remote users of our collection? This paper will explore how, influenced by our location in an institution peopled by faculty and scholars that integrate intersectional feminisms into their lives and work, it is ultimately reasonable to have a creator-centric philosophy inform our decision-making.

Small Scale Research: How race is constructed in Britsh Social problem films
This document outlines a small-scale research project analyzing how 'race' is constructed in British social problem films from the late 1940s and 1950s. It focuses on four films: Sapphire (1959), Flame in the Streets (1961), A Taste of Honey (1961), and Pool of London (1951). Initial findings suggest the films represented race through dialogue, mise-en-scene, and sound, while also reflecting the social context of immigration and debates around British national identity at the time. The investigation will analyze representations of black and white races, sexuality, imperialism, and stereotypes to understand how race was constructed in these films.

- Break down what you hope to cover in each section of the research
- Ask for feedback on your approach, research statement, or areas to explore further
- Consider including a slide on your research process/timeline
- Practice presenting clearly and concisely within the time limit
The goal is to get feedback early on your direction. Focus on explaining your choices and initial findings

- Novelty gimmicks like 3D and Smell-O-Vision were short-lived fads that did not guarantee financial success
- Epics had huge production budgets, large sets, and big star casts, making them extremely expensive to produce
- There was no guarantee that such a costly film would be a financial success, as audience tastes and trends were changing rapidly during this period of transition for the film industry.
The Princess and the Frog
This document summarizes a research paper exploring Disney's 2009 film "The Princess and the Frog" and its significance as the first Disney film with an African American princess, Tiana. The paper examines Disney's history of portraying racial groups, the movie's portrayal of Tiana and other characters, its setting in 1920s New Orleans, and whether Tiana allows African American girls to see themselves represented in a Disney princess. It describes the methodology used in analyzing the film 20 times and through related blogs and commentary to understand the movie's messages and impact.
Case study fish tank
FishTank is a 2009 British drama film directed by Andrea Arnold. It follows 15-year-old Mia, who lives in an Essex housing estate with her mother and younger sister. The film explores themes of dysfunctional families and alcoholism through a social realist lens. While FishTank received critical acclaim and over 20 awards, it struggled to find a wide audience domestically or internationally due to its small budget, unknown cast, and focus on a gritty portrayal of life in East London housing estates, which limited its relatability.
La dolce vita
Federico Fellini was an influential Italian film director known for his surreal and poetic films. Some of his most famous works include La Strada, La Dolce Vita, 81⁄2, and Roma. Fellini was born in 1920 in Rimini, Italy and initially studied at university before dedicating himself to cinema. His films won many awards including five Oscars and a Palme d'Or. Fellini directed over 20 films and worked with major stars like Marcello Mastroianni and Sophia Loren. He died in 1993 at age 73 and is still considered a master filmmaker who brought new visions to cinema.
Birth of a nation within our gates-2021
D.W. Griffith was an influential early American film director who helped develop cinematic techniques like close-ups, parallel editing, and the use of camera movement. His 1915 film Birth of a Nation promoted racist ideas about Reconstruction and the role of the Ku Klux Klan. Oscar Micheaux was a pioneering African American filmmaker who produced over 40 race films between 1919-1950, including Within Our Gates which directly responded to and critiqued the racist narrative of Birth of a Nation.

2017 02a. 571
The document discusses key differences between Canadian and American cinema traditions. Canadian cinema grew out of showing honest reflections of Canadians through films produced by the National Film Board, while American cinema began as a collective dream by Jewish immigrants to create pure fantasy and reinvent the American Dream. The document then provides examples of two influential Canadian films - Lonely Boy and Boogie Doodle - that exemplify different styles of Canadian cinema. Lonely Boy is a 1963 documentary that takes a realistic approach, while Boogie Doodle is a 1948 experimental animated film that was drawn directly onto film.
Cult figure lynch-2 uws a.jarvis
1. Cult directors like John Waters and Harmony Korine create transgressive films that push boundaries of taste and challenge conventions.
2. Korine's Spring Breakers, with its casting of Disney stars, mixes genres and styles in a "post-cinematic" way that mirrors the sensory overload of modern experience.
3. The film's lack of coherent narrative and mixing of themes like gender, class and race in a confusing way contributes to its cult status and ongoing discussion.

Water polluted by dyestuffs compounds is a global threat to health and the environment; accordingly, we prepared a green novel sorbent chemical and Physical system from an algae, chitosan and chitosan nanoparticle and impregnated with algae with chitosan nanocomposite for the sorption of Malachite green dye from water. The algae with chitosan nanocomposite by a simple method and used as a recyclable and effective adsorbent for the removal of malachite green dye from aqueous solutions. Algae, chitosan, chitosan nanoparticle and algae with chitosan nanocomposite were characterized using different physicochemical methods. The functional groups and chemical compounds found in algae, chitosan, chitosan algae, chitosan nanoparticle, and chitosan nanoparticle with algae were identified using FTIR, SEM, and TGADTA/DTG techniques. The optimal adsorption conditions, different dosages, pH and Temperature the amount of algae with chitosan nanocomposite were determined. At optimized conditions and the batch equilibrium studies more than 99% of the dye was removed. The adsorption process data matched well kinetics showed that the reaction order for dye varied with pseudo-first order and pseudo-second order. Furthermore, the maximum adsorption capacity of the algae with chitosan nanocomposite toward malachite green dye reached as high as 15.5mg/g, respectively. Finally, multiple times reusing of algae with chitosan nanocomposite and removing dye from a real wastewater has made it a promising and attractive option for further practical applications.

Microbial characterisation and identification, and potability of River Kuywa ...Open Access Research Paper
Water contamination is one of the major causes of water borne diseases worldwide. In Kenya, approximately 43% of people lack access to potable water due to human contamination. River Kuywa water is currently experiencing contamination due to human activities. Its water is widely used for domestic, agricultural, industrial and recreational purposes. This study aimed at characterizing bacteria and fungi in river Kuywa water. Water samples were randomly collected from four sites of the river: site A (Matisi), site B (Ngwelo), site C (Nzoia water pump) and site D (Chalicha), during the dry season (January-March 2018) and wet season (April-July 2018) and were transported to Maseno University Microbiology and plant pathology laboratory for analysis. The characterization and identification of bacteria and fungi were carried out using standard microbiological techniques. Nine bacterial genera and three fungi were identified from Kuywa river water. Clostridium spp., Staphylococcus spp., Enterobacter spp., Streptococcus spp., E. coli, Klebsiella spp., Shigella spp., Proteus spp. and Salmonella spp. Fungi were Fusarium oxysporum, Aspergillus flavus complex and Penicillium species. Wet season recorded highest bacterial and fungal counts (6.61-7.66 and 3.83-6.75cfu/ml) respectively. The results indicated that the river Kuywa water is polluted and therefore unsafe for human consumption before treatment. It is therefore recommended that the communities to ensure that they boil water especially for drinking.

The incorporation of a 3DCSM and completion of HRSC provided a tool for enhanced, data-driven, decisions to support a change in remediation closure strategies. Currently, an approved pilot study has been obtained to shut-down the remediation systems (ISCO, P&T) and conduct a hydraulic study under non-pumping conditions. A separate micro-biological bench scale treatability study was competed that yielded positive results for an emerging innovative technology. As a result, a field pilot study has commenced with results expected in nine-twelve months. With the results of the hydraulic study, field pilot studies and an updated risk assessment leading site monitoring optimization cost lifecycle savings upwards of $15MM towards an alternatively evolved best available technology remediation closure strategy.

Improving the viability of probiotics by encapsulation methods for developmen...Open Access Research Paper
The popularity of functional foods among scientists and common people has been increasing day by day. Awareness and modernization make the consumer think better regarding food and nutrition. Now a day’s individual knows very well about the relation between food consumption and disease prevalence. Humans have a diversity of microbes in the gut that together form the gut microflora. Probiotics are the health-promoting live microbial cells improve host health through gut and brain connection and fighting against harmful bacteria. Bifidobacterium and Lactobacillus are the two bacterial genera which are considered to be probiotic. These good bacteria are facing challenges of viability. There are so many factors such as sensitivity to heat, pH, acidity, osmotic effect, mechanical shear, chemical components, freezing and storage time as well which affects the viability of probiotics in the dairy food matrix as well as in the gut. Multiple efforts have been done in the past and ongoing in present for these beneficial microbial population stability until their destination in the gut. One of a useful technique known as microencapsulation makes the probiotic effective in the diversified conditions and maintain these microbe’s community to the optimum level for achieving targeted benefits. Dairy products are found to be an ideal vehicle for probiotic incorporation. It has been seen that the encapsulated microbial cells show higher viability than the free cells in different processing and storage conditions as well as against bile salts in the gut. They make the food functional when incorporated, without affecting the product sensory characteristics.

Climate Change All over the World .pptx
Climate change refers to significant and lasting changes in the average weather patterns over periods ranging from decades to millions of years. It encompasses both global warming driven by human emissions of greenhouse gases and the resulting large-scale shifts in weather patterns. While climate change is a natural phenomenon, human activities, particularly since the Industrial Revolution, have accelerated its pace and intensity
Optimizing Post Remediation Groundwater Performance with Enhanced Microbiolog...
Results of geophysics and pneumatic injection pilot tests during 2003 – 2007 yielded significant positive results for injection delivery design and contaminant mass treatment, resulting in permanent shut-down of an existing groundwater Pump & Treat system.
Accessible source areas were subsequently removed (2011) by soil excavation and treated with the placement of Emulsified Vegetable Oil EVO and zero-valent iron ZVI to accelerate treatment of impacted groundwater in overburden and weathered fractured bedrock. Post pilot test and post remediation groundwater monitoring has included analyses of CVOCs, organic fatty acids, dissolved gases and QuantArray® -Chlor to quantify key microorganisms (e.g., Dehalococcoides, Dehalobacter, etc.) and functional genes (e.g., vinyl chloride reductase, methane monooxygenase, etc.) to assess potential for reductive dechlorination and aerobic cometabolism of CVOCs.
In 2022, the first commercial application of MetaArray™ was performed at the site. MetaArray™ utilizes statistical analysis, such as principal component analysis and multivariate analysis to provide evidence that reductive dechlorination is active or even that it is slowing. This creates actionable data allowing users to save money by making important site management decisions earlier.
The results of the MetaArray™ analysis’ support vector machine (SVM) identified groundwater monitoring wells with a 80% confidence that were characterized as either Limited for Reductive Decholorination or had a High Reductive Reduction Dechlorination potential. The results of MetaArray™ will be used to further optimize the site’s post remediation monitoring program for monitored natural attenuation.

Recycling and Disposal on SWM Raymond Einyu pptx
Increasing urbanization, rural–urban migration, rising standards of living, and rapid development associated with population growth have resulted in increased solid waste generation by industrial, domestic and other activities in Nairobi City. It has been noted in other contexts too that increasing population, changing consumption patterns, economic development, changing income, urbanization and industrialization all contribute to the increased generation of waste.
With the increasing urban population in Kenya, which is estimated to be growing at a rate higher than that of the country’s general population, waste generation and management is already a major challenge. The industrialization and urbanization process in the country, dominated by one major city – Nairobi, which has around four times the population of the next largest urban centre (Mombasa) – has witnessed an exponential increase in the generation of solid waste. It is projected that by 2030, about 50 per cent of the Kenyan population will be urban.
Aim:
A healthy, safe, secure and sustainable solid waste management system fit for a world – class city.
Improve and protect the public health of Nairobi residents and visitors.
Ecological health, diversity and productivity and maximize resource recovery through the participatory approach.
Goals:
Build awareness and capacity for source separation as essential components of sustainable waste management.
Build new environmentally sound infrastructure and systems for safe disposal of residual waste and replacing current dumpsites which should be commissioned.
Current solid waste management situation:
The status.
Solid waste generation rate is at 2240 tones / day
collection efficiently is at about 50%.
Actors i.e. city authorities, CBO’s , private firms and self-disposal
Current SWM Situation in Nairobi City:
Solid waste generation – collection – dumping
Good Practices:
• Separation – recycling – marketing.
• Open dumpsite dandora dump site through public education on source separation of waste, of which the situation can be reversed.
• Nairobi is one of the C40 cities in this respect , various actors in the solid waste management space have adopted a variety of technologies to reduce short lived climate pollutants including source separation , recycling , marketing of the recycled products.
• Through the network, it should expect to benefit from expertise of the different actors in the network in terms of applicable technologies and practices in reducing the short-lived climate pollutants.
Good practices:
Despite the dismal collection of solid waste in Nairobi city, there are practices and activities of informal actors (CBOs, CBO-SACCOs and yard shop operators) and other formal industrial actors on solid waste collection, recycling and waste reduction.
Practices and activities of these actor groups are viewed as innovations with the potential to change the way solid waste is handled.
CHALLENGES:
• Resource Allocation.
