Cocreators David Simon and ed Burns, among others, fielded questions from critick en Tucker before taking inquiries from the audience. one woman, who introduced herself as a criminal attorney, credited the show’s many on-screen and offscreen contributors for their “realistic” elaboration of the investigation process. In the world of The Wire, a criminal investigation offers the narrative frame for each season. But, as a caveat to her praise, she offered one tar- geted counterpoint, a moment in the series in which histrionics seemed to trump authenticity. She highlighted a scene occurring toward the end of the first season, a breakthrough in the series’ first sustained case involving the Barksdale drug ring. In this episode, police investigators and a state attorney attempt to turn D’angelo Barksdale, wayward nephew of king- pin avon Barksdale, toward testifying against his uncle’s syndicate. Throughout the season, as the Barksdales became wary of the case against Criticism, Summer & Fall 2010, Vol.

Indeed I do not hesitate to say that it has done more to enhance our understandings of the challenges of urban life and urban inequality than any other media event or scholarly publication, including studies by social scientists…The Wire develops morally complex characters on each side of the law, and with its scrupulous exploration of the inner workings of various institutions, including drug-dealing gangs, the police, politicians, unions, public schools, and the print media, viewers become aware that individuals’ decisions and behaviour are often shaped by - and indeed limited by - social, political, and economic forces beyond their control". Professor William Julius Wilson, Harvard University Seminar about The Wire, 4th April 2008.

  • Tightrope Dancer Bubbles

Caps† GRASP, Department of Physics, UR-CESAM, University of Liege,` B-4000 Liege,` Belgium (Received 7 July 2016; published 12 September 2016) This paper is associated with a video winner of a 2015 APS/DFD Milton van Dyke Award for work presented at the DFD Gallery of Fluid Motion. The original video is available from the Gallery of Fluid Motion, http://dx.doi.org/10.1103/APS.DFD.2015.GFM.V0013 DOI: 10.1103/PhysRevFluids.1.050504 When a metallic wire is heated up to the boiling point in a subcooled liquid bath some vapor bubbles nucleate on its surface. In the literature, it is admitted that these bubbles generated from active nucleate sites grow up and depart from the heating surface due to buoyancy and inertia. Wang et al. [1] observed an alternative situation: In water or alcohol subcooled baths, bubbles can slide along a horizontal heated platinum thin wire. They also addressed other aspects of the problem such as the interactions between bubbles (bouncing or fusion) [2]. We performed experiments using a 5-cm-long horizontal constantan wire (diameter φ ∈ [0.1; 1] mm) in a 1.5-cS silicone oil subcooled bath. This is a total wetting situation. The resistive wire is heated up through Joule’s effect with a current setting up to 64 A. The injected power P can thus reach 200 W. For P = 10 W and φ = 0.2 mm, as bubbles nucleate on the wire surface, they spontaneously move along it without preferential sense.

These frames can be purchased in kits, ready made, or they can be made by bending and twisting together stiff wire, such as a heavy gauge copper wire. (Stiff pipe cleaners can be used, but some tested by the author tended to sag when wet with the soap solution.) More permanent frames are made by soldering the wire together. Some shapes that can be used are shown in Figure 18. To demonstrate the surface tension of a soap film (in addition to the method in Experiments 4 and 5, take a piece of thin string or thread, tie it into a loop, dip it in soap solution, and gently lay it on a soap film on a large simple loop. Using a dry toothpick, touch the soap film in the center of the string loop. What happens? Using a loop within a loop, dip it into a soap solution to get a soap film in both loops.
