  • CATALOGUE WELCOME to NAXOS JAZZ LEGENDS and NAXOS NOSTALGIA, Twin Compendiums Presenting the Best in Vintage Popular Music
    NAXOS JAZZ LEGENDS/NOSTALGIA CATALOGUE WELCOME TO NAXOS JAZZ LEGENDS AND NAXOS NOSTALGIA, twin compendiums presenting the best in vintage popular music. Following in the footsteps of Naxos Historical, with its wealth of classical recordings from the golden age of the gramophone, these two upbeat labels put the stars of yesteryear back into the spotlight through glorious new restorations that capture their true essence as never before. NAXOS JAZZ LEGENDS documents the most vibrant period in the history of jazz, from the swinging ’20s to the innovative ’40s. Boasting a formidable roster of artists who forever changed the face of jazz, Naxos Jazz Legends focuses on the true giants of jazz, from the fathers of the early styles, to the queens of jazz vocalists and the great innovators of the 1940s and 1950s. NAXOS NOSTALGIA presents a similarly stunning line-up of all-time greats from the golden age of popular entertainment. Featuring the biggest stars of stage and screen performing some of the best- loved hits from the first half of the 20th century, this is a real treasure trove for fans to explore. RESTORING THE STARS OF THE PAST TO THEIR FORMER GLORY, by transforming old 78 rpm recordings into bright-sounding CDs, is an intricate task performed for Naxos by leading specialist producer-engineers using state-of-the-art-equipment. With vast personal collections at their disposal, as well as access to private and institutional libraries, they ensure that only the best available resources are used. The records are first cleaned using special equipment, carefully centred on a heavy-duty turntable, checked for the correct playing speed (often not 78 rpm), then played with the appropriate size of precision stylus.

  • Global Dynamics and Existence of Traveling Wave Solutions for a Three-Species Models
    Global Dynamics and Existence of Traveling Wave Solutions for A Three-Species Models Fanfan Li1, Zhenlai Han1, and Ting-Hui Yang∗2 1School of Mathematical Sciences, University of Jinan, Jinan, Shandong 250022, P R China. 2Department of Mathematics, Tamkang University, Tamsui Dist., New Taipei City 25137, Taiwan. Abstract In this work, we investigate the system of three species ecological model involving one predator-prey subsystem coupling with a general- ist predator with negative effect on the prey. Without diffusive terms, all global dynamics of its corresponding reaction equations are proved analytically for all classified parameters. With diffusive terms, the transitions of different spatial homogeneous solutions, the traveling wave solutions, are showed by higher dimensional shooting method, the Wazewski method. Some interesting numerical simulations are performed, and biological implications are given. 2010 Mathematics Subject Classification. Primary: 37N25, 35Q92, 92D25, 92D40. Keywords : Two predators-one prey system, extinction, coexistence, global asymptotically stability, traveling wave solutions, Wazewski principle. arXiv:2004.12263v1 [math.DS] 26 Apr 2020 ∗Research was partially supported by Ministry of Science and Technology, Taiwan (R O C). 1 1 Introduction In this work, we consider an ecological system of three species with diffusion as follows, 8 @ u = r u(1 − u) − a uv − a uw; <> t 1 12 13 @tv = r2v(1 − v) + a21uv; (1.1) > : @tw = d∆w − µw + a31uw; where parameters d is the diffusive coefficient for species w, r1 and r2 are the intrinsic growth rates of species u and v respectively, and µ is the death rate of the predator w. The nonlinear interactions between species is the Lotka- Volterra type interactions between species where aij(i < j) is the rate of consumption and aij(i > j) measures the contribution of the victim (resource or prey) to the growth of the consumer [19].

The stories collected here demonstrate Rutgers University Libraries’ commitment to supporting the mission of Rutgers University and to building a strong foundation for academic success and research. Thanks to the publication of a large, rigorous new study, “The Impact of Academic Library Resources on Undergraduates’ Degree Completion,” we know that academic libraries can have a big impact on student outcomes. This bodes well for the thousands of students who use the Libraries each day, but it also means we have to make sure our core services meet their needs and expectations and that we are ready to support them throughout their academic careers. This year, we made significant improvements to our collections, instruction, and discovery, adding thousands of new resources and making them easier to find.

  • MASTERCLASS Meet
    MASTERCLASS Meet uPaul Charles’s chameleonic qualities have made him a television icon, spiritual guide, and R the most commercially successful drag queen in United States history. Over a nearly three-decade career, he’s ushered in a new era of visibility for drag, upended gender norms, and highlighted queer talent from across the world—all while dressed as a fierce glamazon. “Be willing to become the shape-shifter that you absolutely are.” Born in San Diego, California, RuPaul first experienced mainstream success when a dance track he wrote called “Supermodel (You Better Work)” became an unexpected MTV hit (Ru stars in the music video). The song led to a modeling contract with MAC Cosmetics and a talk show on VH1, which saw RuPaul interviewing everyone from Nirvana to the Backstreet Boys and Diana Ross to Bea Arthur. He has since appeared in more than three dozen films and TV shows, including Broad City, The Simpsons, But I’m a Cheerleader!, and To Wong Foo, Thanks for Everything! Julie Newmar. RuPaul’s Drag Race, Ru’s decade-old, Emmy-winning reality drag competition, has gone international, with spin-offs set in the U.K. and Thailand. He’s also published three books: 2 RuPaul 1995’s Lettin’ It All Hang Out, 2010’s Workin’ It!, and 2018’s GuRu, which features a foreword from Jane Fonda. Recently, he became the first drag queen to land the cover of Vanity Fair. His Netflix debut, AJ and the Queen, premiered on the streaming service in January 2020. RuPaul saw drag as a tool that would guide his punk rock, anti-establishment ethos.

He had never seen a big airplane, much less been on one. With only a few dollars in his pocket the Iyoung man was going to a strange country, however, he was going with an incredible opportunity to help fulfill his dream of being a horse trainer. “I was first exposed to American Saddlebreds through my dad. He’s my biggest influence,” said Turner. “My older sister showed. My first horse was actually a jumper before I ever sat on a Saddlebred. He was a Gymkhana horse. We enjoyed horses as a family. Mom didn’t have any interest in riding but she made tail bags and things for us. We would trailer in and out and stay at the campgrounds. It was a big social outing. I didn’t even know you stayed at a horse show until I got here in the states.” 130 Saddle Horse Report • August 14, 2017 Finding A Home A Long Way From Home Through this gate and down this drive have gone some of the greatest horsemen, show ring champions,and producers the American Saddlebred industry has ever known.
