    Insight—077 Cool Hand Luke Meets Attics environments and the freezing pipe issues associated with sprinkler systems. Insight The bad implications are that we can accumulate moisture in the attic and attic assemblies if we don’t have a means of removing the moisture. Cool Hand In what has become an amazing turn of events folks are figuring out how to construct tight ducts—even when Luke Meets they are located “inside”. Mastic rules (Photograph 1). All of this is good. The only place air should exit a duct or enter a duct is at a grille or register. So what is the Attics problem? “What we’ve got here is failure to communicate . .”1 An edited version of this Insight first appeared in the ASHRAE Journal. By Joseph W. Lstiburek, Ph.D., P.Eng., Fellow ASHRAE In what is turning out to be an unfortunate turn of phrase the terms “unvented attics” and “unvented roofs” have entered the lexicon. A lot of the blame for that goes to me and for that I am sorry. The “right” terms should have been “conditioned attics” and “conditioned roofs”2. When we move insulation to the underside of a roof deck3 the space below the insulation is now within the “conditioned space”. This has all kinds of implications…some good…some not so good. The good implications are that if we locate ductwork and air handlers and sprinklers in the attic space we don’t have to worry about the thermal penalties associated with duct leakage and the moisture penalties associated with induced negative pressures and the durability issues associated with locating equipment in hostile 1 This classic line comes from the 1967 movie Cool Hand Luke.

  • Keynote Address Reclaiming Our Rightful Place: Reviving the Hero Image of the Public Defender Jonathan A
    A2_RAPPING.DOCX (DO NOT DELETE) 6/5/2014 6:09 AM Keynote Address Reclaiming Our Rightful Place: Reviving the Hero Image of the Public Defender Jonathan A. Rapping “There can be no equal justice where the kind of trial a man gets depends on the amount of money he has.”1 Justice Hugo Black wrote this in Griffin v. Illinois, seven years before he authored his groundbreaking opinion in Gideon v. Wainwright, establishing a Sixth Amendment right to counsel in state court prosecutions.2 In Gideon, the Court recognized that a lawyer is essential to ensuring a fair trial.3 While the Gideon Court did not lay out a standard for the type of lawyer to which a poor person is entitled, read in conjunction with the Court’s pronouncement in Griffin, the answer is obvious. He is entitled to a lawyer with the time, resources, experience, training, and commitment for which a person with means would pay. For if a poor defendant requires a comparable trial to his wealthier counterpart to ensure equal justice, and the quality of the lawyer dictates the quality of the trial, equal justice can only be guaranteed where the poor person has access to the same level of representation as the person who can afford to hire counsel. But, while Gideon made clear that counsel is the engine necessary to ensure equal justice, for fifty years lawyers for the poor have been deprived the fuel needed to drive this lofty aspiration. Over these five decades we have unfortunately come to accept an embarrassingly low standard of justice for poor people accused of crimes.

The Messianic Figure in Film: Christology Beyond the Biblical Epic Abstract With the decline and fall of the religious epic, christology (the study of the person of Christ) in film has moved into genres outside of the biblical spectacular. Deliberate attempts to harmonize the Gospels and offer a literal rendition of the life of Jesus have proven mediocre to some and offensive to others. What has proven more successful is the Messianic Figure: a formula in which the central character is a non- conformist or unlikely redeemer who transforms lives and ultimately undergoes martyrdom. Four films offer the prototype of such a character: Cool Hand Luke (1967), One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest (1975), Dead Poets Society (1989), and most recently Sling Blade (1997).

INTRODUCTION HE academic legal community has failed to appropriately recog- nize the images of law depicted by Hollywood as a legitimate and important subject for scholarly review.' Movies have the capacity to "open up" the discussion of contemporary legal issues that conven- tional legal sources ignore. 2 Although different from the normative legal theory of study, movies provide a rich portrait of popular jurisprudence of legal values.3 A fundamental paradox of many notable films is their inability to simultaneously achieve both scholastic acceptance and artistic achievement, at least equal to other media. 4 Movies are very powerful and can, through the use of provocative images, explore controversial themes and evoke passions that can affect even the most tightly closed minds. 5 The exclusion of films' celebrated images from academic study has its cost. There is, for example, a prevalent belief that life in prison is too t In the most celebrated colloquy in the movie Cool Hand Luke, the Captain as he stands over the defiant convict Luke asserts, "[w]hat we've got here is failure to communicate."

  • The Imaginary Life of Nineteenth-Century Virtuosity
    The Imaginary Life of Nineteenth-Century Virtuosity By LucrA RUPRECHT (Cambridge) ABSTRACT Nineteenth-century virtuosity can be understood as a form of subjection under a musical law whose power could only be broken by hyperbolic responses of self-anni­ hilating over-fulfilment of this law's relentless demands. Such excesses of the Roman­ tic imagination (Hoffmann, Heine, Lyser, Andersen) had to be domesticated in Rea­ lism's responses to virtuosity (Stifter, Grillparzer). Virtuosit3t kann im neunzehnten Jahrhundert als Unterwerfung unter ein musika­ lisches Gesetz begriffen werden, <lessen Macht our in zu SelbstauslOschung fiihrender Obererfiillung zu beechen ist. Das fiir solch exzessive Visionen verantwortliche romantische Imagin3re {Hoffmann, Heine, Lyser, Andersen) musste geradezu in Vir­ tuositatserzahlungen des Realismus (Stifter, Grillparzer) domestiziert werden. Paganini: N'accordait jamais son violon. celebre par la longueur de ses doigts. 1 »Unsere Beziehung zum Virtuosen ist ambivalent«, writes Vladimir Jankele­ vitch. The virtuoso begniigt sich nicht nur damit, das Werk zu interpretieren, er schafft es neu, unter solchen Bedingungen, die manchmal iibernati.irlich scheinen. Wahrend der Dauer einer Sonate sind der Interpret und der SchOpfer nur noch einer. Daher empfinden wir zugleich Bewunderung und Groll: [... ] wir werfen uns selbst unsere eigene Bewunde­ rung vor; vielleicht ist der Virtuose ein Scharlatan, der uns zum Narren halt, ein Akrobat, der uns mystifiziert? Wir bewundern die Gro.Stat und wollen keinen Sand in den' Augen. Diese Ambivalenz resi.imiert im Grunde unsere Beziehungen zur Musik: wir werden <lurch sie in ihren Bann geschlagen und wir werfen dies ihr vor, beides zusammen.2 Nineteenth-century discourses on musical virtuosity can be characterised by their concern with the virtuoso as a false artist.
