  • News Headline Tone in International Coverage of North Korea's September 2017 Nuclear Test
    Athens Journal of Mass Media and Communications- Volume 5, Issue 1 – Pages 1-16 A Rogue Nation: News Headline Tone in International Coverage of North Korea’s September 2017 Nuclear Test By Butler Cain & Kristina Drumheller† On September 3, 2017, North Korea underwent its sixth nuclear test despite expectations of denuclearization. News headlines from six international news sources were analyzed for journalistic tone related to the nuclear test. As with previous research on earlier tests, headlines were primarily neutral or negative regardless of the news source. Given that 60% of people only read the headlines, and a similar number share news stories on social media based on headline, examining journalistic tone in headlines during international crises is worthwhile. Keywords: Korea, nuclear, headline, tone, journalism. Introduction News coverage of North Korea’s continued thwarting of denuclearization efforts has often ranged from neutral reporting of events to negative condemnation with little to no positive commentary (Cain & Drumheller, 2014). North Korea’s sixth nuclear test on September 3, 2017, brought variations in headlines from news organizations around the world. News headlines might be all that is read of a news story as headlines are highlighted in email briefs and social media shares. This study analyzes the news headlines from six international broadcasters on the day of the detonation and examines them for journalistic tone to assess agenda setting trends set by the limited but salient information a headline provides. The relationship the United States has with North Korea has long been one of proximity through maintaining a base in South Korea and policy demand in the form of CVID (complete, verifiable, and irreversible denuclearization; Anderson, 2017).

  • THE QUEER FEET G. K. Chesterton If You Meet a Member of That Select
    THE QUEER FEET G. K. Chesterton If you meet a member of that select club, "The Twelve True Fishermen," entering the Vernon Hotel for the annual club dinner, you will observe, as he takes off his overcoat, that his evening coat is green and not black. If (supposing that you have the star-defying audacity to address such a being) you ask him why, he will probably answer that he does it to avoid being mistaken for a waiter. You will then retire crushed. But you will leave behind you a mystery as yet unsolved and a tale worth telling. If (to pursue the same vein of improbable conjecture) you were to meet a mild, hard-working little priest, named Father Brown, and were to ask him what he thought was the most singular luck of his life, he would probably reply that upon the whole his best stroke was at the Vernon Hotel, where he had averted a crime and, perhaps, saved a soul, merely by listening to a few footsteps in a passage. He is perhaps a little proud of this wild and wonderful guess of his, and it is possible that he might refer to it. But since it is immeasurably unlikely that you will ever rise high enough in the social world to find "The Twelve True Fishermen," or that you will ever sink low enough among slums and criminals to find Father Brown, I fear you will never hear the story at all unless you hear it from me. The Vernon Hotel at which The Twelve True Fishermen held their annual dinners was an institution such as can only exist in an oligarchical society which has almost gone mad on good manners.

  • Applying Traditional Theories of International Relations
    INTERNATIONAL SECURITY AND THE SPACE DOMAIN: APPLYING TRADITIONAL THEORIES OF INTERNATIONAL RELATIONS TO THE ASTROPOLITICAL ENVIRONMENT by ALLEN ERIC ROTTER KARL R. DEROUEN, COMMITTEE CHAIR DERRICK V. FRAZIER, COMMITTEE CO-CHAIR EVERETT C. DOLMAN WENDY WHITMAN COBB STEPHEN BORRELLI DANIEL J. LEVINE HOLGER ALBRECHT A DISSERTATION Submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in the Department of Political Science in the Graduate School of The University of Alabama TUSCALOOSA, ALABAMA 2020 Copyright Allen Eric Rotter 2020 ALL RIGHTS RESERVED ABSTRACT Traditional theories of International Relations have long been used to describe the politics of space. The space security debate itself reflects the inter-paradigm debate of the 1970s and 1980s in which neorealist and neoliberal institutionalist scholars argued over the constitutive character of the anarchic international system. This disagreement is projected onto the space environment and thus contending theoretical assumptions are used to justify opposing propositions concerning the securitization of the domain. Neorealists assume that militarization is an effective method of securitization while neoliberals assume that subscription to international institutions is a more effective method. The extant literature on space security appeals to or extends from military doctrine and political psychology to make prospective space behaviors intelligible. In this dissertation, I apply the theoretical assumptions that undergird traditional schools of thought to the space security environment and operationalize them in a manner conducive to quantitative statistical analysis. I propose that the security status of space can be operationalized by the frequency of non-military payloads placed in orbit every year. This represents the perceived precarity of the domain among civilian and commercial industrial leaders.

  • Jonathan Bird Phd FINAL 2 June 2019
    READY EXERCISER ONE: EXAMINING THE EFFICACY OF IMMERSIVE TECHNOLOGIES IN THE EXERCISE DOMAIN A thesis submitted for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy by Jonathan M. Bird BSc, MSc, CSci Centre for Cognitive Neuroscience Division of Sport, Health and Exercise Sciences Department of Life Sciences College of Health and Life Sciences Brunel University London 2019 ii Abstract The present programme of research sought to examine the effects of audio-visual stimuli during exercise, using immersive, commercially available technologies. Three original studies were conducted using a range of settings (i.e., real-world, laboratory), methodologies (i.e., qualitative and quantitative), exercise modalities (i.e., gym workouts, cycle ergometry) and consumer products (e.g., music-video channels, virtual reality head-mounted displays) in order to explore the main research question from various perspectives. A substantive theory was proposed in Study 1 that sought to explain and predict the social process of exercising in the presence of a music-video channel. The model provides support for a three-stage process that commences with the content of the music-video channel. The second stage depicts a series of moderators that revolve around the core category, appraisal of appropriateness. Lastly, a range of effects pertaining to exercisers and facility staff are predicted. Study 2 sought to examine the influence of a range of audio-visual stimuli on cycle ergometer exercise at the ventilatory threshold. The findings indicated that a 360-degree video with music condition elicited the most positive affective valence, greatest perceived activation, most dissociative thoughts, and highest ratings of perceived enjoyment. Study 3 sought to veer towards greater ecological validity with the inclusion of a commercially available virtual reality-enabled cycle ergometer.

  • Water Power Technologies Office 2019 Peer Review Final Report
    (This page intentionally left blank) LETTER FROM THE DIRECTOR Dear Colleague: On behalf of the U.S. Department of Energy’s Water Power Technologies Office (WPTO), I am happy to release the 2019 WPTO Peer Review report. This report is the product of a comprehensive review of the Marine and Hydrokinetics (MHK) and Hydropower Programs, including evaluations of both programs’ strategies, as well as individual projects and new initiatives. The review covered 77 individual projects funded by the office, including 41 projects funded by the MHK Program and 36 by the Hydropower Program.These projects represent the majority of WPTO’s active portfolio between fiscal years (FY) 2017 and 2018, though some projects were funded and initiated as early as FY 2014, before WPTO was an independent office. The projects reviewed represent about $230 million in executed funding, which includes funds appropriated in prior fiscal years and non-federal cost share. WPTO is required to conduct an office-wide review every two years in accordance with departmental guidance; we in WPTO consider this an important responsibility and opportunity, as it is the most comprehensive mechanism that we have for gathering feedback on our programs and projects. We could not do our jobs without the help and input of our stakeholders, which is why the objectives in our office’s Outreach and Engagement Strategy are embedded in everything we do, including how we planned and executed this review. We were deliberate in planning this review to achieve the key goals outlined in the strategy: (1) demonstrate transparency, (2) elicit feedback, (3) disseminate results and tools developed through R&D, and (4) provide objective and accurate information to the public.

  • It Was My Instinct to Defend Liberty in Poor Nations and Poor Families; That Is, to Defend the Rights of Man As Including
    G. K. Chesterton & G. K.Freedom Chesterton “It was my instinct to defend liberty in poor nations and poor families; that is, to defend the rights of man as including the rights of property; especially the property of the poor. I did not really understand what I meant by Liberty, until I heard it called by the new name of Human Dignity.” —Autobiography © 2012 G. K. Chesterton Institute for Faith & Culture “The free man owns himself. He can damage himself with either eating or drinking; he can ruin himself with gambling. If he does, he is certainly a damn fool, and he might possibly be a damned soul; but if he may not, he is not a free man any more than a dog.” —Broadcast talk, June 1935 “Most modern freedom is at root fear. It is not so much that we are too bold to en- dure rules; it is rather that we are too timid to endure responsibilities.” —What’s Wrong With the World G. K. Chesterton “The man of the true religious tradition understands two things: liberty and obedience. The first means knowing what you really want. The second means knowing what you really trust.” —G. K.’s Weekly, August 18, 1933 © 2012 G. K. Chesterton Institute for Faith & Culture Fr. Ian Boyd on Chesterton & Freedom “The two ideas upon which Christian theology was based were the ideas of Reason and Liberty.” So said Chesterton in November 1911 in his address to a meeting at Cambridge organized by a student club who called themselves “The Heretics.” He went on to say that Reason was real.

  • Father Brown Mysteries Chesterton, G.K
    Father Brown Mysteries Chesterton, G.K. G.K. Chesterton (1874-1936), British author, essayist, and theologian, was also an accomplished mystery writer. He produced between 1910 and 1935 a number of short stories (collected into five volumes) featuring the unlikely sleuth and Roman Catholic priest Father Brown. The humble priest’s unassuming air, masking a profound knowledge of human nature, enabled him to solve many a mystery. The Father Brown stories are available from the New Bern-Craven County public Library in a one-volume edition. Audio tapes are also available for The Innocence of Father Brown and the Wisdom of Father Brown. The Innocence of Father Brown (1911) Short story collection containing: The Blue Cross, The Secret Garden, The Queer Feet, The Flying Stars, The Invisible Man, The Honour of Israel Gow, The Wrong Shape, The Sins of Prince Saradine, The Hammer of God, The Eye of Apollo, The Sign of the Broken Sword, and The Three Tools of Death. The Wisdom of Father Brown (1914) Short story collection containg: The Absence of Mr. Glass, The Paradise of Thieves, The Duel of Dr. Hirsch, The Man in the Passage, The Mistake of the Machine, The Head of Caesar, The Purple Wig, The Perishing of the Pendragons, The God of the Gongs, The Salad of Colonel Cray, The Strange Crime of John Boulnois, and The Fairy Tale of Father Brown.
