  • Arkansas Moves Toward Secession and War
    RICE UNIVERSITY WITH HESITANT RESOLVE: ARKANSAS MOVES TOWARD SECESSION AND WAR BY JAMES WOODS A THESIS SUBMITTED IN PARTIAL FULFILLMENT OF THE REQUIREMENTS FOR THE DEGREE MASTER OF ARTS Dr.. Frank E. Vandiver Houston, Texas ABSTRACT This work surveys the history of ante-bellum Arkansas until the passage of the Ordinance of Secession on May 6, 186i. The first three chapters deal with the social, economic, and politicai development of the state prior to 1860. Arkansas experienced difficult, yet substantial .social and economic growth during the ame-belium era; its percentage of population increase outstripped five other frontier states in similar stages of development. Its growth was nevertheless hampered by the unsettling presence of the Indian territory on its western border, which helped to prolong a lawless stage. An unreliable transportation system and a ruinous banking policy also stalled Arkansas's economic progress. On the political scene a family dynasty controlled state politics from 1830 to 186u, a'situation without parallel throughout the ante-bellum South. A major part of this work concentrates upon Arkansas's politics from 1859 to 1861. In a most important siate election in 1860, the dynasty met defeat through an open revolt from within its ranks led by a shrewd and ambitious Congressman, Thomas Hindman. Hindman turned the contest into a class conflict, portraying the dynasty's leadership as "aristocrats" and "Bourbons." Because of Hindman's support, Arkansans chose its first governor not hand¬ picked by the dynasty. By this election the people handed gubernatorial power to an ineffectual political novice during a time oi great sectional crisis.

    TRENDS & CONTROVERSIES A quantum leap for AI By Haym Hirsh Rutgers University [email protected] November 1994 saw the near-simultaneous publication of two papers that threw the notion of computing on its head. On November 11, 1994, a paper by Leonard Adleman appeared in Science demonstrating that a vial of DNA fragments can serve as a computer for solving instances of the Hamiltonian path problem. Less than two weeks later, Peter Shor Quantum computing and AI presented a paper in Santa Fe, New Mexico, at the 35th Annual Symposium on Foundations Subhash Kak, Louisiana State University of Computer Science, demonstrating how a quantum computer could be used to factor large Every few years, we hear of a new tech- numbers in a tractable fashion.

  • RACSO Motion Pictures Announces Next Project
    CONTACT: CHRISTOPHER ALLEN PRESS RELEASE 317.418.4841 FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE [email protected] RACSO Motion Pictures Announces Next Project INDIANAPOLIS, Ind. – *Award Winning Filmmaker Christopher Allen has announced the title of his company’s next film production, a fan based effort to re-launch the popular “Quantum Leap” television series that ran on NBC from 1989 to 1993. Indianapolis based RACSO Motion Pictures is targeting 2008 as to when principal photography will begin. “Whenever people hear of a fan based effort, or fanfilm, they immediately think of a high school kid with mom and dad’s hand held video camera. This is clearly not the case.” said Allen from his studio in Carmel, Indiana. “My last fan effort (award winning Star Trek vs. Batman) opened more doors for my career than everything else prior to it. No one should underestimate the capability of what fan based films can do, if done professionally.” Allen will enlist a wide array of Indianapolis talent to help continue the story of Dr. Sam Beckett, who ironically is from a fictitious town in Indiana. Once completed, Allen hopes to use “Quantum Leap: A Leap to Di for” to persuade the science fiction broadcasting networks to re- launch the popular franchise. “I hope that the story is what will ensure the film’s acceptance by the fans. It centers on Dr. Beckett’s journey to 1997, where he is presented with the likelihood of saving the life of Princess Diana.” Allen said. “That one possibility is something I believe everyone can identify with.” Allen went on to add.
