    G7210 GRACE UNDER FIRE (USA, 9/29/1993-2/17/1998) [TV SERIES] Series summary: Family comedy with a serious undertone set in the contemporary U.S. After divorcing her abusive, alcoholic husband and recovering from her own alcoholism, Grace (Butler) tries to rebuild her life and protect her children from making the same mistakes. Wade Swaboda (Sander), her next- door neighbor is a Vietnam vet and a political conservative. Fire in the hole (1/20/1998) Credits: director, Phil Ramuno ; writer, Paul J. Raley. Cast: Brett Butler, Casey Sander, Ed Marinaro, Caitlin Cullum Summary: Wade (Sander) shows up with Dan Gabriel (Marinaro), his old commanding officer in Vietnam, who’s now a covert operations/demolition expert. Dan and Grace begin a verbal sparring match almost immediately. He’s a warrior and a hard-core conservative, and Grace hates everything he stands for. Later, Dan has no trouble winning over Jean, and he talks to Grace’s daughter Libby (Cullum) about how to use psychological intimidation to defend herself against a bully who put gum in her hair. An angry Grace tells Dan to keep himself and his violent approach to life away from her kids, but their conversation ends in a passionate kiss. Grace is horrified that she’s madly attracted to a guy she hates, and it’s obvious that Dan is equally attracted. But Dan dives into the river to do some demolition work for D.C. and doesn't come back out. Everyone assumes he’s dead, but later, Dan, very much alive, appears at Grace’s and tells her he faked his death because he needs to disappear for awhile, but he’ll be back to see her.

Martin received an Emmy® nomination for her role as Becca Thatcher in the acclaimed series “Life Goes On.” In addition to landing a regular role in “ER” and guest starring in such acclaimed series as “thirtysomething,” “The Tracy Ullman Show” and “Law & Order: SVU,” Martin has starred in a number of television movies including “Her Hidden Truth,” “If Someone Had Known,” “Breaking Free,” “Her Last Chance,” “A Friend to Die For” and “Hidden in Silence.” Martin has also appeared in the feature films ”Malibu’s Most Wanted,” “Troop Beverly Hills,” “Matinee,” “Jumping Jack Flash,” “Open House” and the animated “The Goofy Movie.” Throughout her life, Martin has learned to balance her career and her studies, choosing to put TV and the movies on hold while she enrolled in Yale University, majoring in art history. She also helmed a 13-minute short while participating in the prestigious American Film Institute’s directing workshop for women.

  • Braided Fermions from Hurwitz Algebras
    Braided fermions from Hurwitz algebras Niels G Gresnigt Xi'an Jiaotong-Liverpool University, Department of Mathematical Sciences. 111 Ren'ai Road, Dushu Lake Science and Education Innovation District, Suzhou Industrial Park, Suzhou, 215123, P.R. China E-mail: [email protected] Abstract. Some curious structural similarities between a recent braid- and Hurwitz algebraic description of the unbroken internal symmetries for a single generations of Standard Model fermions were recently identified. The non-trivial braid groups that can be represented using c the four normed division algebras are B2 and B3, exactly those required to represent a single generation of fermions in terms of simple three strand ribbon braids. These braided fermion states can be identified with the basis states of the minimal left ideals of the Clifford algebra C`(6), generated from the nested left actions of the complex octonions C ⊗ O on itself. That is, the ribbon spectrum can be related to octonion algebras. Some speculative ideas relating to ongoing research that attempts to construct a unified theory based on braid groups and Hurwitz algebras are discussed. 1. Introduction Leptons and quarks are identified with representations of the gauge group U(1)Y × SU(2)L × SU(3)C in the Standard Model (SM) of particle physics. Despite its success in accurately describing and predicting experimental observations, this gauge group lacks a theoretical basis. Why has Nature chosen these gauge groups from an infinite set of Lie groups, and why do only some representations correspond to physical states? A second shortcoming of the SM is the lack of gravity, or equivalently, its unification with General Relativity (GR).
