This is where the applications of land surveyors are used and the knowledge they have in order to see further details.

As for responsibilities, plenty of those is appointed towards them. Involving with measuring and identifying accurate details and statistics are one of which. Boundaries have been the topic and so far they constantly have to deal with this. The details they just have accumulated are so important for numerous reasons.
The gathered data by them will be what they use in identifying on what particular place will be the soon to project be constructed. It does pertaining to the infrastructures and perhaps another kind of establishment. They even have to do also the settling of disputed lines within the properties.
They too are together with engineers. Often times, they teamed up. The reviews and information they noted and take down are what they are going to submit. It would be perhaps in the form of reports. Other than that, even the creation of a map is what they ought to help also. The makers of such items need the service of them.

If you are the proprietor and then you tend to own a hundred hectares of lands. Then, you must have a deal and negotiate with the land surveyor. The skills, as well as the capabilities they have and owned, are what the client needs. The services they provided have played an important role in the entire process.

Return to sender, Return to sender
You made warheads for the government
to put on subs in Faslane
But then the people protested --
Take Trident back again
We wrote upon it:Return to sender, purpose unknown.
Don't want these weapons or radiation zone.
Peace and abolition without your military trap
We'll keep on camping till you stop this nuclear crap
Now you want to make new warheads
to modernise Trident
you built a billion pound laser
with taxes criminally spent
We wrote upon it:
Return to sender, targets unknown.
No good reason to make a nuclear war zone.
Now we're gonna take those nuclear arms
and negotiate them all away
And your jobs can switch to disarmament
then you'll be free to say - the writing on the wall
Return to sender, refuse to kill
Get rid of Trident for a nuclear-free world
Return to sender
Get rid of Trident
Return to sender
Stop this nuclear crap.

North Wilmington Real Estate and Information
North Wilmington Real Estate and Information
The North Wilmington/Brandywine/Arden area has the highest percentage of "locals" in northern Delaware. It is known for convenience and amenities. Most of the homes were built after World War 2 in boom years for Dupont Company. There is very little new construction as the area was built out as farm after farm was sold to developers. While there are many exceptions, the most popular homes in this area are a 2 story colonial. Commute times to area corporations are reasonable and the public school test scores are amongst the best in the area. Route 202 also known as Concord Pike is the main commercial center of north Wilmington. It contains the Concord Mall (our second largest), Trader Joe's, and so many popular restaurants.

...see ya in 2012. Today, it is reported that the Liberal Party of Canada will hold their next biennial convention June 17-19, 2011 in Ottawa.
To me this means the following sequence of events are about to take place (because these guys read Juggernaut and they think they are the reincarnation of the Martinites):
1. Anyone wishing to run for a position of riding president, table officer, provincial officer or table officer that is deemed to be "unfriendly to the OLO" will promptly get squashed in a contested (or so they call it) battle at the riding and provincial levels from this day forward.
2. Talk of Liberal leadership will be rekindled faster than you can say "snap".
3. There is obviously NO ELECTION IN THE YEAR 2010.

My $.02?
I don't think it's just a Liberal issue. I think politics is to some degree lost.
It's about the machine, it's about winning at all costs - and the creativity and the honesty in people actually standing for something has become, for the official party lines, a LIABILITY from their point of view.
It's "WalMart" politics.

Beyond Bourbon, Out of Town Tours Even Locals Will Love!
Do you have family and friends in town for the holidays? If you need help with entertaining them, we can help! Escape the hustle and bustle of downtown New Orleans and come with us to these fascinating historical sites outside of the city. Our excursions to Cajun country have peaked the interest of locals and tourists alike, and if you are not already a native of New Orleans, we will be sure to make you fall in love with Louisiana! December is an especially nice time of year to visit plantations since many of the houses we visit, in addition to those you see along the drive are adorned in Christmas decorations, which highlight the spectacular architecture of these historic homes.
Oak Alley Plantation: appropriately named for its distinguished canopied path of centuries' old live oak trees! One of the MOST popular plantations to visit.
Laura Plantation: a Creole sugar plantation commended for its historically accurate portrayal of 200 years of life on the plantation, thanks to the surviving memoirs of Laura Locoul Gore, the fourth mistress of the house.
Houmas House: also known as Burnside Plantation is known as The Crown Jewel of the River Road. Once you see it in person, you will understand this deserving title!
San Francisco Plantation: known for its extraordinarily ornate architecture, San Francisco plantation is known as the most opulent of plantations.
St. Joseph Plantation: here you will experience history in the making, as the family (owners) invite visitors for an intimate and authentic tour of their ancestral home.
Whitney Plantation: also known as the Museum of Slavery, Whitney Plantation tells the story of plantation life from the perspective of the slaves, and offers so much more history than just a story. You will be sure to get an education on this tour.
We find it's best to see more than one plantation in the same day to make the long drive worthwhile, choose from one of our half day plantation tours, or spend a full day exploring Cajun country on our Grand Tour!
Reserve your places on our:
Oak Alley and Laura Plantation Tour
San Francisco and Houmas House Plantation Tour
Whitney and St. Joseph Plantation Tour
Grand Tour (Includes Oak Alley and Laura, plus lunch, and a swamp tour!)

Josh McGroban* (no relation to the singer) used to be a regular man. Now he's a celebrity because of his radical new method of losing weight. However the league of doctors is wildly upset by it, and caution people against it, saying it's "too dangerous" and "unhealthy". But let's be honest, isn't every new weight fad dangerous until we understand it? We discussed this new strategy with Josh* at his home in Seattle.
"It all started when my wife was complaining that I needed to lose a few pounds." says Josh*. "I just looked at her, and told her she needed to lose a few pounds first, and we argued and I figured that was the end of it. It turns out, I really hurt her feelings though, because within a week, through a rigorous exercise program, she had lost 10 pounds! I was furious. I couldn't be beat by my wife at anything, so I set out to find the fastest way to lose more weight than her. I was looking at everything from starvation to tapeworms to some weird herbal remedy called 'cocaine'. They all seemed like pretty big risks (or way too expensive) for not a lot of weight loss. Finally, I stumbled on a new idea, buried deep in a reddit post about surgeries. The user was telling about how he got some disease called 'gout' that forced the doctors to cut his leg off. It was then that I knew what I had to do."
After searching craigslist and reddit, and a few sites that we won't mention here because we're not sure they're legal, he finally found an individual with 'gout' that was willing to give him a blood transfusion in his leg. They had to travel to Guatemala in order to find a doctor who would perform the transfusion, but within a week, Josh* had successfully contracted 'gout'. "At first it wasn't that bad, I knew I only needed to last long enough to get rid of the leg, but after a few weeks and my wife CONSTANTLY complaining about how I was gonna die, and how it was 'cheating', it was pretty awful. Finally the day came that I couldn't move my leg anymore, so I hobbled on down to the hospital and within 2 short hours, I was one leg and 35 lbs. lighter!" Josh tells us. When asked what he would do differently if he did it again, he had this to say: "Liposuction. Probably look at liposuction first. It's WAY more expensive, but you can't get those weeks of searching for a blood donor back. Surprisingly, those people keep their 'gout' pretty well a secret. Greedy bunch of losers…"
What do you think about Josh's* method of weight loss? Have you or a loved one tried something similar? Leave us a comment to tell us about it below.
Unless you are bleeding profusely, then please call 911 first.

Wig Comissions - Eeeeverythiiiing
|Sailor Moon: OMG! My most challenging wig yet and it didnt help that I had a tight schedule! (Though I know it could not be helped and I am still glad I got to work on a sailor moon wig for the first time XD) It's my first time actually doing wefts to go down the center of the wig in order to create a parting for the tails and then stubbing the wig and adding the tails and so on. Trying to figure out the ordango method was also quite literatly hell and ended up doing my own version. I'm pretty pleased with it being my first actual try at it and I wish I hadnt ran out of hairspray on two occasions. I'm hoping I can improve on the next one, despite how much right now I never want to see pigtails again XD
~ Wig - Already bought / Styling - £35 including P&P
Vaan wig: Despite it's simple appearance, the Vaan wig is actuall harder then you think! Mainly when it comes to the fringe. Though the wig looks bigger on the head and less... Ducktail like, it actually sticks up better when on an actual head (hopefully) because the wig head base is small compared to a normal head. But yea. Lots of hairspray.
~ £40
Austria: Very simple wig. Only needed a bit of trimming at the sides and was a bit fiddly to get it to sweep back just like I wanted so lots of tweaking was involved. The hardest bit was that curl but it stays up just fine and is quite hard to budge. (Though I still wouldnt recommend tugging on it XD)
~ £35
OMG it looks amazing sweetie, thank you soo much :3
That dose look amazing. I really love what your doing with wigs.
Wow! Really nice work, Best SM wig i've ever seen! <3
Aww! That looks so good :) (p.s loving the wig head too.)
Wow, that actually looks really great! I want one toooooo. :P It looks lovely. <3
have u ever done a euphmia(code geass)wig?
Aww thanks Everybody for the nice words! D: *Was freaking extra cause first time doing it* @Niccy - No, but that wig seems to be alot easier to do then a Sailor Moon wig so I would be happy to work on that one. XD
Very nice! Are you by any chance still taking wig commissions?
Yup, still am. Info and such be on the website via my profile =3
Heya you! It's your Austia ^^ I shall be paying you sooooooonnnn! BTW, I forgot to say this in the original email, but when you're done I don't mind you putting up pictures. As ever, your wigs are incredible and I look forward to the results =D
You know I love you for doing that wig? It looks FANTASTIC! And thanks for warning people at the cirl... please don't tug it, I have a rather... interesting reaction to that DX Thank you again! Your wigs will forever continue to inspire me ^^
Daaaw the Austria wig looks adorable. 8D Great job! (I bet the prussia in you enjoyed styling that XP)
England, it was very tempting to style it into a mohawk~ That should make the grumpy Austria a little more awesome~ No were near as awesome as I will be though 8B @Lapin - I'm really glad you likes it hun XD It was much fun to style~ *Is tempted to find out this reaction now however*
Ahhhh happiness! Demdem and Laaaarxxxxy!! ;p I cannae wait for them to arrive XDXD I shallz be running around the house going "I'm Larxene! Do as I say or I shallz hurt yous!" :3
Hi, can I ask where you got the Grell wig from, it's just the right type I'll need for a costume ^^ thanks.
U are Amazing with wig styling ;P
Loving your wigs so much. How much for the Grell and the Undertaker wigs? I really like the look of those. Grell I'll need a wig for and Undertaker I'll be wanting a wig for eventually as I don't want to keep the fringe.

Global warming may not be as dramatic as some scientists have predicted.
Using temperature readings from the past 100 years, 1,000 computer simulations and the evidence left in ancient tree rings, Duke University scientists announced yesterday that "the magnitude of future global warming will likely fall well short of current highest predictions."
Supported by the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration, the Department of Energy and the National Science Foundation, the Duke researchers noted that some observational studies predicted that the Earth's temperature could rise as much as 16 degrees in this century because of an increase in carbon dioxide or other so-called greenhouse gases.
The Duke estimates show the chances that the planet's temperature will rise even by 11 degrees is only 5 percent, which falls in line with previous, less-alarming predictions that meteorologists made almost three decades ago.
In recent years, much academic research has indicated otherwise, often in colorful terms and citing the United States as the biggest contributor to global warming. This month, a University of Toronto scientist predicted that a quarter of the planet's plants and animals would be extinct by 2050 because of rising temperatures. On Wednesday, two geophysics professors at the University of Chicago warned those who eat red meat that their increased flatulence contributes to greenhouse gases.
Last year, Oregon State University research linked future "societal disruptions" with global warming, while the Carnegie Institution reported that the insulating influence of northern forests alone would raise the Earth's temperature by 6 degrees. In 2004, Harvard University scientists informed Congress that warming had doomed the planet to climatic "shocks and surprises."
The Duke research, however, found substantial ups and downs in the Earth's temperature before modern times, countering other studies that confine noticeable temperature increases to the industrialized era. Marked climate change in other centuries resulted from "external forcing," said the Duke findings, citing volcanic eruptions and other influences.
"Our reconstruction supports a lot of variability in the past," said research director Gabriele Hegerl of Duke's Nicholas School of the Environment and Earth Sciences.
Although her study found that the Earth is, indeed, warming, Ms. Hegerl discounts dire predictions of skyrocketing temperatures. The probability that the climate's "sensitivity" to greenhouse-gas levels would result in drastically higher temperatures is "substantially" reduced, she said.
Ms. Hegerl and her four-member team based their conclusions on thermometer readings over the past century, along with "ancient climate records," including tree-ring studies and ice-core samples that revealed hot and cold spells and airborne particulates over a 700-year period. In addition, they created 1,000 computer-based weather simulations for the past 1,000 years.
"Ancient and modern evidence suggest limits to future global warming," the study concluded. It was published in the journal Nature.
The topic of global warming, meanwhile, will be framed dramatically in "An Inconvenient Truth," a 94-minute documentary featuring former Vice President Al Gore, who has deemed rising temperatures "a planetary emergency." The Hollywood production will be released to theaters in May and is billed by producer Davis Guggenheim as "the most terrifying film you will ever see."
The production also recommends that viewers take "political action." On Tuesday, Mr. Gore paid Roy Neel, a longtime Democratic adviser, $40,000 to help him create a public outreach program on global warming, the New York Daily News reported.
The American Spectator and columnist Jonah Goldberg have accused Mr. Gore of "green" scaremongering.

We really work hard to keep shipping reasonable. Our shipping cost quoted with each item reflects postage, materials and labor. Again, if we can combine to save you a lot, we will.

Playing with Composition
I'm trying to be more cognizant of backgrounds. Even stuff that's supposed to be there (like leaves) can detract, it seems. Blurring it out isn't always an option (although I suppose with editing/post-processing/whatever you want to call it, it could be) so it seems like a good idea to compose well in camera when possible.
I like the red in this, but wish it went higher up into the picture. Since it's a counter top and not a wall, that's not likely, though, unless I tip the flower pot on its side ;-)

In Autumn 2017, Louis Poulsen released the brand-new PH 5 Mini – the first-ever resize of the PH 5 – in Classic White, a new White Modern, and six vibrant new colour combinations: Hues of Orange, Hues of Rose, Hues of Red, Hues of Green, Hues of Blue and Hues of Grey.
Also read: PH in limited edition
In celebration of the PH 5 pendant's sixtieth anniversary, the original PH 5 will also be made available in the same eight colours.
A sculptural mood-setter for any space
True to the multi-talented Henningsen's signature balance of function and form – of technology and art, in other words – the PH 5 serves as a beautiful sculptural element both when it is on and off. This effect enhanced by the bold new colour options, and the top-to-bottom graduations from dark to light within each colour variant.
- Every interior – whether classic or modern – can benefit from the exceptional lighting and aesthetic qualities of Poul Henningsen's most popular design, says Rasmus Markholt, Idea & Design Director at Louis Poulsen.
- We wanted to celebrate the six-decade legacy by expanding the PH 5 family to complement any space, and open it up for new, modern and personal expression. The lamps can be subtly incorporated with existing décor – or bring a bold pop of colour. We look forward to seeing how people interpret the new options to create their ideal ambience.
An ingenious system to shape and humanise light
Poul Henningsen developed the PH 5 in 1958 as a follow-up to his celebrated three-shade system, which was launched in 1926. Henningsen's original design had been inspired by his mother's wish for more flattering, softer light in an era when homes were still transitioning to electric lighting and incandescent bulbs, whose effects were more utilitarian than aesthetic.
Later, when lightbulbs were standardised (a design shift that displeased Henningsen, who called the new bulbs "muffins"), he responded with the five-shade system to gain complete control over the new type of light, quipping that, "With the new PH 5, I surrender to the light bulb manufacturers."
The surrender proved to be more of a statement of Henningsen's genius, and to this day, the PH 5's five-shade system continues to infuse spaces with 100% glare-free, even illumination, with the majority of light shining downwards at the space it illuminates rather than into people's eyes.
The new colours will be available in stores starting in February 2018.

Fall 2017
ENG 192 | First Year Seminar: Aspects of Hell: The Downward Ascent
Brian Marks
Section 4 | MW, 2:00 PM – 3:15 PM
Course Description
Where is hell? Can I get directions on GoogleMaps? Who goes to hell? Why does Satan have horns and a tail, and what kind of product does he put in his hair? What role does hell play in serving heaven? Is hell just a Christian idea?
In this course, we will attempt to answer those questions and other questions about hell by examining literary and cinematic representations of hell. We are going to start off by examining pre-Christian accounts of journeys to the underground but will go back and forth between the distant past and the present in order to understand how this supernatural place came to be and what it is becoming.
Work Involved
The class material will mainly be literary based, but we'll also check out representations of hell in art, graphic novels, film, and music. You will write two response papers (2 pages each), a university event paper (2 pages), and research paper (5-7 pages).
Sample Readings and Viewings
Excerpts from Dante's Inferno and Victoria Nelson's book Gothicka, as well as Nathaniel Hawthorne's short story "Young Goodman Brown" and Aguirre-Sacasa's graphic novel The Trials of Loki. We will also check out several movie clips and watch the Sci-fi masterpiece Bladerunner.
About the Instructor
My scholarship tends to focus on comparative mythology. I am currently writing a novel that broaches some of the themes discussed in this class. This fall will be my tenth semester teaching this class, and I am astounded that the topic continues to be a fun and enlightening investigation into the depths of humanity.

ENG 192 | First Year Seminar: Women and Geek Culture
Jennifer Dworschack-Kinter
Section 2 | T/Th, 9:30 AM – 10:45 AM
The number of women participating in Geek Culture has never been higher; women are reading graphic novels, attending conventions, gaming, and cosplaying. Responses from the traditionally male-dominated geek community have been varied, and in some cases have been unwelcoming, threatening, or even violent. In this course we will look at the history and formation of "Geek" culture, the role women have played in it as producers, consumers, and subjects of all things geeky. How do we define "culture," and once we have done so, how do we define "Geek Culture?" We will read contemporary scholarly work about culture and how it affects identity in a general sense, and apply those ideas to Geek Culture, as well as reading other scholars who are investigating Geek Culture and the position of women within that culture. We will dive into and experience different areas of Geek Culture and learn about the women who shape it and participate in it, and we will gauge the reactions of the community to these women.
Our ultimate goals for the course will be to develop a deeper understanding of how different cultures form and persist; how members of different cultures identify themselves as such and how that identification affects them and their sense of self, how understanding these concepts can help us to examine a specific community and its members, in this case, Geek Culture and the women who are fascinated with it. The ultimate questions for us are: why have some male Geeks had such a strong and negative reaction to the changing demographics Geek Culture? How are women and their many male allies shaping Geek Culture to be more welcoming to women? What does it mean to a self-proclaimed female Geek to try to be a member of a community that often seems to not welcome her?

ENG 205 | Business Writing
Sally Stanton
Section 224 & 225 | Online
This fully online course is an excellent introduction for students from all majors to the much-in-demand writing skills essential for success in the workplace today, as well as a great refresher for professionals returning to update their skills or complete degrees. Individually, students will complete weekly online readings and quizzes on communication theory, writing strategies, and the practical application of both, receiving immediate feedback for greater comprehension. Topics covered include organizing and writing routine informational communication (memos, email, letters, reports), writing positive, negative, persuasive, and digital/social media messages, collaborative writing, intercultural communication, proposals, presentations, resumes and cover messages, and business-message formatting. Expect to strengthen grammar, mechanics, proofreading, and revision skills in this course. Students will also learn to use software and other digital media for effective message creation and communication, as well as for collaboration. A weekly online discussion forum involves students in small groups applying their knowledge as well as learning from one another. A required collaborative writing project also within these small groups allows students to practice the research, editing, and teamwork skills needed in the business field. Periodic writing assessments provide detailed feedback and further hands-on practice in relevant business writing tasks. An online business communication textbook bundled with MindTap, a digital learning platform that includes problem sets and quizzes, are required for this course. The most recent edition of the Business Writer's Handbook (Alred, Brusaw, and Oliu), available in multiple formats, is also required.

ENG 210 | International English
Laura Ambrose
Section 1 | MW, 12:30 PM – 1:45 PM
In this course, we will discover that as the English language has made–and continues to make–its way around the globe, radical changes to local languages and cultures have occurred. At the same time, however, English itself has been modified, adapted, and expanded, sometimes in unfamiliar and unrecognizable ways.
We will start with the origins of English in the British Isles and move onto its introduction and development in North America, Australia, Africa, Asia, and Europe. We will study several principal examples in detail. In doing so, we will also investigate many issues that accompany language globalization; such as, language change, loss of language and identity, language policy and standardization, and teaching and learning English.
Most of the reading assignments will be provided electronically. (It is possible that a textbook will be added at a later date.)
This course is three credits in English and satisfies the GER requirements for Humanities.
For more information, contact Laura Ambrose at email@example.com.
ENG 212 | Grammar and Usage
Laura Ambrose
Section 1 | MW, 2:00 PM – 3:15 PM
Improve your understanding of grammar: Become a better writer.
Good writing does not happen at random. The best writers understand the structure of the language and know how to work it to their advantage. Like professional auto racers, not only do they know how to clutch and brake, they also know what is going on under the hood.
In English-212, you can learn to master the fundamental building blocks of English. In this course, we study the grammatical terms and concepts that are key to sentence structure. We also explore how this knowledge can be used to create and edit texts more effectively.
Many examples and practice exercises are provided to help you succeed in this course. The material is presented at a steady but accessible pace.
Optional Textbooks:
- English Grammar: Understanding the Basics. (E.P. Altenberg & R.M. Vago. ISBN: 0-521-73216-6)
- Grammar for Language Arts Teachers. (A. Calderonello, et al. ISBN: 0-205-32527-0)

ENG 215 | Introduction to English Studies
Stuart Moulthrop
Section 4 | T/Th, 11:00 AM – 12:15 PM
Course Description:
English 215 introduces the remarkably various discipline called English Studies, which includes among other things the following:
- understanding literary texts in various forms and genres;
- developing the capacity to respond critically to literary texts;
- placing literary practices within history, culture, and social movements;
- following the evolution of "the literary" across various media.
We will take on a range of literary productions, from John Milton's Paradise Lost to digital fictions written in recent years. We'll deal with poems, novels, essays, graphic novels, films, and digital compositions, as well as critical writings that place these works in context.
The class will provide you with tools to begin critically engaging texts produced by writers in response to cultural forces: from Milton in the Protestant revolution of the 17th century to Mary Shelley at the birth of modern democracy and feminism, to Ta Nehisi Coates in the struggle for racial justice in the present century. Along the way we'll touch on imagination, invention, identity, embodiment, gender, race, empire, and the ongoing revolution of modern times. A common thread throughout will be the need to articulate narratives of self and other, and to adapt these expressions to changing social and technical contexts. Overall, the course serves as introduction to the broad range of inquiry that makes up English studies at UWM.
Required texts and materials:
Only texts marked with an asterisk * require purchase:

ENG 294 | Game Culture
Stuart Moulthrop
Section 1 | Online
Course Description:
This is a first course in the critical study of games, especially computer games, and the culture of participatory media to which they belong. It will introduce the concept of games and play as meaning-making activities; survey forms, conventions, and practices that inform the design and reception of games; outline major theoretical trends within the field of Game Studies; examine the place of games in contemporary culture, and consider some of the problems and challenges they pose for our society.
The course is intended for students in any major who want to think critically, creatively, and (yes) seriously about playful media. The work will involve a certain amount of reading and writing: critical evaluation of games, applications and evaluations of theory. It may also entail a good deal of game play, both in and out of class; or observation of play by others. Fun should be unavoidable — and so, hopefully, will be a sense that computer games represent a significant medium for expression.
Required Texts
1. Simon Egenfeldt-Nielsen et al., Understanding Video Games: The Essential Introduction, Third Edition, Routledge, 2015. ISBN 91138849820. $43 for new print, $32 for e-book. I tried to order an earlier edition for which cheaper used copies are available, but this was not feasible.

ENG 306 | Survey of Irish Literature
José Lanters
Section 1 | T/Th, 11:00 AM – 12:15 PM
Course Description:
Irish literature is as rich and varied as the country=s history. "Irishness" is not an innate quality, but a cultural and political construct that is constantly re-"invented." Beginning with the earliest poems and legends, and moving via the Anglo-Irish perspective of the eighteenth and nineteenth century, and the Irish Literary Renaissance of the early twentieth century, to a more urban and cosmopolitan contemporary perspective, this course offers an introduction to Irish writing and an exploration of several varieties of "Irishness" as they are expressed through the literature.

ENG 378 | Survey of Current Literary and Cultural Theory
Gregory Jay
Section 1 | MW, 3:30 PM – 4:45 PM
The study of literary and cultural theory should be an exciting adventure in intellectual discovery. It should not be an alienating march through forests of impenetrable prose and incomprehensible ideas. But no doubt our readings will at times be challenging, asking us to rethink our assumptions about selfhood and society, art and the unconscious, and the social construction of gender, sexuality, and race. The schools and movements we will cover include New Criticism, structuralism and poststructuralism, postmodernism, psychoanalysis, feminism, Marxism, queer theory, postcolonial critique, visual culture, and critical race discourse. Through class discussion, small group work, and short writing assignments we will test these theories in analyses of literature, film and, indeed, the way we make meaning out of our everyday lives. The variety of approaches sampled should give all students an opportunity to evaluate which theories they find most interesting and valuable, and to explore chosen ones in greater depth. Along the way we will discuss the application of critical theories to many specific works of literature, film, and media. Our textbook, Critical Theory Today, 3rd edition, by Lois Tyson, features the application of theory to F. Scott Fitzgerald's The Great Gatsby, so students need to also have a copy of that novel.

ENG 380 | Special Topics in Media and Society: Media and the Environment
Gloria Kim
Section 1 | TTh, 10:00 AM – 11:50 AM
What might films about mutant fish tell us about the aesthetics of the 21st century environmental imagination? How might we characterize the experience of time in films that forecast extreme weather? How do media representations of postindustrial landscapes, eco-comedies about a waterless planet, apocalyptic pandemic narratives reveal how we fear and hope for the future of the planet, and envision possibilities of life on it? This course engages such questions as it examines how the environment has been and is being shaped, both conceptually and materially, by media representations and technologies.
Course materials are drawn from a diverse range of objects (film, video games, material media, news, advertisements), but we retain a focus on film and digital media. Students will develop skills to help them situate film and media representations in relationship to historical and cultural contexts of environmental discourse, and learn how to identify and analyze emergent aesthetic conventions and visualizing practices that surface around the environment. Beginning with the emergence of environmental discourse in the 1970s's, the course moves towards filmic and medial representations and practices of the contemporary. Topics include: visualizing ecological catastrophes in news and documentary media; representations of species-extinction; media obsolescence, electronic waste, and conflict minerals; posthuman and anthropocenic envisionings of life. Readings shall link the aesthetic foci of course materials to theoretical areas such as posthumanism, visualization, neo-colonialism, ecofeminism, media ecology.
Screenings may include: Princess Mononoke (Hayao Miyazaki, 1993), An Inconvenient Truth (Davis Guggenheim, 2006), Wall-E (Andrew Stanton, 2008), The Cove (Louis Psihoyos, 2009), Manufactured Landscapes (Jennifer Baichwal, 2006), Soylent Green (Rich Fleischer, 1973), and The Lorax (Chris Reynaud, Kyle Burn, 2012).

ENG 415 | Fiction Workshop
Valerie Laken
Section 2 | W, 4:30 PM – 7:10 PM
Telling stories seems such a natural human activity that it's easy to presume no one needs to take a class to learn how to do it. Yet when we read and listen to the stories of others, it's clear that some stories move us more than others. Some stories stick in our memories for years. They change us. And then there are all the powerful stories embedded in the culture around us, which influence our actions, choices, and the ways we perceive the world. That kind of story-telling is not just the result of talent or luck; it requires the careful use of a range of skills that writers call craft. In this class we will study fundamental craft skills such as characterization, plot, detail, and setting, and move toward the more advanced strategies of pacing, structure, voice and counterpoint. We will also do many exercises that will train you to perceive and absorb the world as a storyteller so you can develop the muscles needed to recognize, develop, finish, and revise compelling stories.
For more information, contact Valerie Laken at firstname.lastname@example.com.
ENG 415 | Fiction Workshop
Mauricio Kilwein Guevara
Section 3 | T/Th, 11:00 AM – 12:15 PM
I welcome all students who are open to growing as writers and readers.
Course Description
This class will exercise your critical reading and creative writing abilities in fiction on a regular basis. I will introduce, define, and apply a vocabulary specific to fiction writing: many of the terms you will already know; some will be new. I encourage you to practice these concepts, words, and phrases in our classroom discussions. Please remember that ours is a supportive classroom, where constructive questions and comments are always welcome. I anticipate that you have undergraduate mid-level competence as a fiction writer. More importantly, I assume you want to continue to improve, experiment, and grow as a writer, so that I hope you welcome well-intentioned and sophisticated feedback from me and from your peers.
We will read and write three types of fiction over the course of the semester: the novel chapter (generally between 1000 and 5000 words), flash fiction (generally less than 1000 words), and hint fiction (25 words or fewer). This comparative reading and writing will allow us naturally to discuss a number of elements involved in fiction writing, including character, pace, plot, modulating tension, atmosphere, voice, tone, diction, imagery, style, etc.
As to required texts, probably the following:
SKIPPY DIES by Paul Murray. $16.00
HINT FICTION edited by Robert Swartwood. $13.95
FLASH FICTION FORWARD edited by James Thomas and Robert Shapard. $15.95
Another cost will be photocopying workshop drafts.
Any questions? Feel free to send me an email.
Hope to see you in the fall!
For more information, contact Mauricio Kilwein Guevara at email@example.com.
ENG 416 | Poetry Workshop
Brenda Cárdenas
Section 1 | T, 3:30 PM – 6:10 PM
Course Description
When we write poems, we often explore various means of working within, stretching, and transcending boundaries vis-a-vis our attention to particular aspects of craft, form, and approaches to writing. With this in mind, students will draft and revise poems outside of class, as well as occasionally participate in writing exercises during class. Assignments will involve experimenting with line and syntax, patterns of sound and repetition, extended metaphor, persona, formal verse, ekphrasis, and collage, among other modes and approaches. Students will critique their peers' poems-in-progress, offering suggestions for how their peers might alter various aspects of the poem to achieve the desired effect. Students will also read, analyze, and discuss published contemporary poems paying attention to what the poem aims to achieve or evoke and how the poet has constructed the poem toward this end. Our culminating project will be a portfolio of revised poems with a reflective introductory essay.
Junior standing; satisfaction of GER English Composition competency requirement (C or above in English 102 or equivalent transfer course, or EPT score of 525 or above); and English 233 or 235.
Required Texts
There is no required textbook for this course; however, required readings will be made available as PDFs or via hotlinks on the course D2L site. They will consist of published poems, instructive articles regarding poetic craft; and articles about poets and their work. Together, they will equal a textbook's worth of material. You will be required to print these articles out and bring them to class.
For more information, contact Brenda Cárdenas at firstname.lastname@example.com.
ENG 427 | Writing for Nonprofits
Sally Stanton
Section 201 (U/G) | Online
Want to use your writing and research skills for the greater good? This course explores the theory, practices, lore, and written communication used by professional writers in nonprofit or social sector workplaces, such as theatres, museums, libraries, social service agencies, art centers, humane societies, and other community organizations.
Students will:
- Learn the purpose and defining characteristics of the nonprofit sector.
- Understand the role of written messages in communicating social sector values and results.
- Explore persuasive writing strategies for nonprofits (including case statements, donor and constituent messages, and proposal-related communications).
- Adapt business communication theories and strategies to the nonprofit sector.
- Apply sector-specific theory and approaches to producing annual reports, websites, social media, grant reports, etc.

ENG 431 | Topics in Advanced Communications: Technical Documentation in the Zombie Apocalypse
Scott Graham
Section 1 | Th, 4:30 PM – 7:10 PM
Did you know that technical communicators and professional writers are our first line of defense against the zombie apocalypse? It's true! Center for Disease Control virus outbreak warnings; police manuals for undead encounters; and survival how-to videos in the last days before the internet goes down are all essential technical communication genres for the zombie apocalypse. Subsequently, the Fall 2017 edition of 431 is devoted to preparing aspiring technical communicators and professional writers for their important role in the zombie apocalypse. Students will learn key aspects of professional writing theory and have an opportunity to deploy those theories through guided apocalypse-oriented practical activities. Specific course units will focus on: 1) an introduction to the field, 2) genre analysis, 3) information design, 4) organizational issues in technical and professional communication, and 5) usability studies.

ENG 437 | Project Management for Professional Writers
Rachel Spilka
Section 1 | T, 4:30 PM – 7:10 PM
Are you aiming for a career in technical communication or other fields related to the development or improvement of documentation in work contexts? If so, this course might be a great fit for you. English 437 is designed to provide you with an array of skills – all supported by widely-accepted theories in writing and rhetoric – that will position you well to compete well for postgraduate jobs that call for well-rounded applicants with proven expertise in team work, leadership, problem solving, and the management of all stages of documentation.
This course will require some reading and class discussion, but will focus mostly on hands-on training during class workshops. Below are just some of the skills you'll develop during this course:
- Negotiating all stages of the writing process – from start to finish – including research, analysis, planning, drafting, evaluation, and revision
- Functioning well as a client liaison but also as an "audience advocate" throughout a writing project
- Communicating and collaborating with others effectively throughout a writing project. This involves taking the initiative to contribute ideas and leadership, as useful or necessary, but also demonstrating awareness that workplace writers do not function in a vacuum – instead, they are hired to work with and for other people on socially-created and socially-owned documentation.
- Identifying and solving problems during a project with the goal of satisfying as many project stakeholders as possible.
- Demonstrating strong professionalism throughout a project, including an ability to be flexible, adapt, and modify original plans at any point of a project.

ENG 456 | Writers in English Literature, 1500-1660: Early Modern Poetry
Mark Netzloff
Section 1 | MW, 12:30 PM – 1:45 PM
Course Description:
Appropriate to its title, this course focuses on writers of poetry in the early modern period. We will examine the social, political, and material contexts in which poetry was written, circulated, and read. The uses of poetry were remarkably varied in this period: poetry often served as a form of social currency, forging relations of patronage, promotion, and social affiliation. In such contexts, poetry was often occasional and inextricably tied to the relations between poets and their addressees. Increasingly, this audience was a public one, and the period witnessed the increasing professionalization of literary writing through the advent of a marketplace of print. Our discussions will explore the emergence of categories of authorship and intellectual property as well as the shifting social place of the writer.
Early modern poetry was also innovative in its use of literary frameworks for studying the private and subjective experience of writers, and we will analyze the forging of modern forms of subjectivity through poetic forms and their varied contexts: of devotion and religious practice, friendship, patronage and politics, as well as love poetry and erotic verse.
Our readings will include poems by Wyatt, Surrey, Gascoigne, Whitney, Sidney, Spenser, Marlowe, Shakespeare, Ralegh, Elizabeth I, Donne, Jonson, Lanyer, Wroth, Herbert, Herrick, Crashaw, Marvell, Milton, and Philips.
Several texts will receive extensive attention, with several sessions devoted to Spenser's Faerie Queene, the entire cycle of Shakespeare's Sonnets, and the poetry of John Donne.
Course work will consist of a presentation (reading and leading discussion of a single poem); a mid-term essay exam; a final 5-page paper; and active participation

ENG 530 | Studies in Shakespeare: Mediterranean Histories
Mark Netzloff
Section 1 | MW, 3:30 PM – 4:45 PM
Course Description:
Roughly half of Shakespeare's plays are set in the Mediterranean, not only the more familiar contexts of Renaissance Italy and classical Rome and Greece but also the wider Mediterranean world linking Europe with the cultures of North Africa and West Asia. Placing Shakespeare's plays in this broader Mediterranean context reveals the extent to which cultural and historical traditions typically identified as "western" or "European" emerge through cultural exchanges spanning millennia that forge connections among the constituent cultures of this region.
Although the settings of these plays glance backward to the Mediterranean past – the Trojan War, the Roman Empire, the cultural relations of early modern Europe and the Ottoman Empire – these Mediterranean histories evoke questions that are remarkably contemporary: what are the roles and rights of immigrant communities and religious minorities? How do travel, trade, and migration transform cultural identities? And how are cultural relations maintained despite war and other forms of conflict?
We will discuss eight plays: The Comedy of Errors, The Merchant of Venice, Troilus and Cressida, Othello, Antony and Cleopatra, Coriolanus, Pericles, and The Tempest.
Course work will include reading quizzes, active participation, and a final 10-page paper.
(Students may use any other editions of the plays.)

ENG 612 | Poetry and the Creative Process
Brenda Cárdenas
Section 1 (U/G) | T/Th, 12:30 PM – 1:45 PM
Course Description
How do contemporary poets conceive of and craft their poems? In what kinds of creative processes do they engage, and how might particular writing conditions aid those processes? What poetics/aesthetics guide their work? With questions like these in mind, we will engage in two different kinds of activities: 1) discussion of published poems paired with essays written by contemporary poets about their own creative processes and poetics, and 2) a generative writing workshop. By "generative," I mean that we will spend time in class each week writing in response to inventive prompts which will give you the opportunity to experiment with many different creative processes and approaches to writing. From the collection of spontaneous, preliminary drafts that each of you will amass, you will select a certain number of pieces to develop into more carefully crafted poems that you will share with small groups of your peers. The critiques you will receive from and write for your peers will offer suggestions for revising the poems-in-progress so they might achieve the desired effects. Our culminating project will be a portfolio of revised poems with an introductory essay that describes the processes in which you engaged to produce the poems therein. The authors of the three poetry books I've asked you to purchase will also visit our class to talk about their own creative processes in writing their books.
Senior sanding, satisfaction of GER English Composition competency requirement (C or above in English 102 or equivalent transfer course, or EPT score of 525 or above), and 3 credits in English 415, 416, 615, or 616; or graduate standing.

Additional required readings will be made available as PDFs or via hotlinks on the course D2L site. They will consist of groups of published poems and articles written by poets regarding their own creative process and poetics. Together, they will comprise the equivalent of a fourth textbook. You will be expected to print these poems and articles out and bring them to class.

ENG 615 | Advanced Fiction Workshop
Valerie Laken
Section 1 | T, 4:30 PM – 7:10 PM
In this course you will discover what it is like to live as a writer. You will do this by writing and reading every day, sharing your work and feedback with your peers, and doing the difficult work of revision. We will review the craft skills essential to fiction writing, such as characterization, plot, conflict, and setting, and will begin to develop a more sophisticated understanding of the ways in which successful stories can defy convention, manipulate expectations, and expand the art of fiction. We'll study published stories that model strategies such as point and counterpoint, nonlinearity, adapted and experimental forms, rhyming action, and more. We'll do experiments to help generate and develop stories and to refine our sense of what a story can do and be. Each student will write and workshop two new stories and carefully revise one of them. Other assignments include written peer critiques, reading assignments, and writing exercises.

ENG 622 | Seminar in Irish Literature: Irish Women Writers
José Lanters
Section 1 |
Course Description:
For a small nation that only achieved independence in 1922, Ireland has produced more than its share of world-class writers: we may immediately think of James Joyce, as well as the four Nobel laureates, G.B. Shaw, W.B. Yeats, Samuel Beckett, and Seamus Heaney. Irish women writers have gained less visibility: until recently, for example, a poster featuring 'Irish Writers' popular with visitors to Ireland included the images of twelve men and not a single woman. For much of the twentieth century, women writers faced an uphill battle to have their work published, their plays produced, and their artistic efforts publicly recognized. The position of women in Ireland in general was circumscribed by the 1937 Constitution, which notoriously defined the role of women as mothers and their place as 'in the home', and by the dominance in everyday life of the Catholic church, which was granted a privileged position in the same Constitution. In this class, we will read prose fiction, poetry, and drama by female Irish writers, written between the early 20th century and the present day, in which themes and subjects that are of particular concern to women are addressed.
Midterm paper, final paper, class participation and attendance.

Long before I was selling these services I was a buyer, managing an extremely successful communications training curriculum within a Fortune 10 company that provided coaching globally to 300-400 executives each year. I know the trust and confidence required to put your most important leaders in the care of an outside consultant. I know how enhanced communication skills can drive business results and be a source of competitive advantage. My corporate life also included senior roles in finance, regulatory affairs, operations, issues management, government relations, media relations, crisis response, and executive leadership.
Today I am one of the principal owners of WPNT Communications and have achieved Malcolm Gladwell's "10,000-Hour Rule" of mastery in the field of on-camera executive speech coaching and communications training.
I believe great communicators are audience-centered. They work hard to understand and address the concerns and perspectives of the people who comprise their stakeholder ecosystem. I'm passionate about helping leaders communicate more effectively with the financial community, and am pleased to serve on the Board of Directors for the Houston Chapter of the National Investor Relations Institute (NIRI).
When I'm not training or traveling I love downhill skiing and mountain biking in the Tetons, catching and releasing Idaho cutthroat trout on the Snake River, and hunting for bull redfish in the shallow bay waters along the Texas coastline.

Artificial Intelligence (or AI for short) has a long and prestigious history in cinema, from the manical False Maria of Fritz Lang's silent classic Metropolis through to the menacing HAL in Stanley Kubrick's 2001: A Space Odyssey and the sultry charm of Samantha in Spike Jonze's Her.
Whilst the characteristics of the AI that are portrayed in these films are as variable as the pictures in which they appear, the majority of them portray their creations as anthropomorphised beings, imbuing them with familiar human characteristics with which we can identify with.
One of the most well known examples of AI in films is in Ridley Scott's 1982 classic Blade Runner, which stars Harrison Ford as Decker, a law enforcer tasked with stopping Rutger Hauer and his merry band of replicants, as they attempt to hunt down their programmers by whatever means necessary. During the course of the film we see Decker begin to question the notion of existence and memory, as he gradually begins to fall in love with one of the replicants that he is supposed to be 'retiring'. Meanwhile the remaining replicants discover what it means to be "more human than human" (the motto of the Tyrell Corporation, the company that created them).
In order to discuss the accuracy of the depiction of the AI in Blade Runner, and other films, we talk to Martyn Amos, professor in novel computation at MMU. Amongst other things Martyn introduces us to the concept of embodiment, i.e. why is it that the many of the AI that we see perceived in films not only demonstrates human-like emotions and characteristics, but also mirror their physical features and appearances. Martyn also explains why AI is to blame for some books being listed for thousands of pounds on Amazon, and why we should live in awe of termites.
We also talk to Martyn about the Turing Test, a test designed by Alan Turing to determine if a machine's behaviour is indistinguishable from that of a human. Effectively this test can be used to determine if an unknown entity is an AI or a human being, with variants of it used in the films Ex Machina and also Blade Runner. In the summer of 2014 a chatterbot (a computer program which makes conversation via the spoken or written word) by the name of Eugene Goostman successfully convinced a panel of judges that it was in fact human, but before you start planning for a dystopian future ruled over by our robot overlords, it is worth remembering that the validity of this achievement has been questioned by many critics, as pointed out in this excellent article by the New Yorker.
For those of you that are still worried that AI might be living amongst us, unnoticed, you can find out more about the future of AI here, alternatively you could play them at their own game by learning how to plan your own AI system with this online course from Coursera. And if you really have your suspicions about someone, why not convince them to take the Voight-Kampf test. Just don't ask them any questions about their mother…

Image Number: 0124-1001-2909-2610
On Jan. 21, 2010, the Advanced Spaceborne Thermal Emission and Reflection Radiometer (ASTER) instrument on NASA's Terra spacecraft captured this simulated natural color image of the Port-au-Prince, Haiti, region, nine days after a magnitude 7.0 earthquake struck the region, causing massive damage and loss of life. In this latest image, the large white object visible in the bay in the left center of the inset is the U.S. Navy hospital ship Comfort that reached Haiti on Jan. 20. The 275-by-33-meter (100-by-900 foot) ship has a total patient capacity of 1,000 beds and has 12 operating rooms.
