The PDZ Domain as a Complex Adaptive System
Specific protein associations define the wiring of protein interaction networks and thus control the organization and functioning of the cell as a whole. Peptide recognition by PDZ and other protein interaction domains represents one of the best-studied classes of specific protein associations. However, a mechanistic understanding of the relationship between selectivity and promiscuity commonly observed in the interactions mediated by peptide recognition modules as well as its functional meaning
Corporal Punishment Study
Dr. George W. Holden, a psychologist and parenting expert at Southern Methodist University, Dallas, discusses a new corporal punishment study based on actual audio recordings.
Believed to be the first study of its kind, 37 mothers voluntarily recorded up to 36 hours of interactions with their children, says Holden. Within the audio, the data captured mothers spanking, slapping or hitting their young children, which then sparked crying, tantrums and whimpering.
The audio reveals the moments bef

What Makes Airplanes Fly?
Students begin to explore the idea of a force. To further their understanding of drag, gravity and weight, they conduct activities that model the behavior of parachutes and helicopters. An associated literacy activity engages the class to recreate the Wright brothers' first flight in the style of the "You Are There" television series.
A Revolution in Farming: Combines (6:23)
The combined harvester-thresher machine revolutionized farming in the
early 20th century. How did combines change things and what did farmers
use before their invention is the subject of this video and it shows how the invention came about and its impact on America.

Computational Environments with Multimodal Representations of Architectural Design Knowledge
This article discusses interaction between multimodal representations of architectural design knowledge, particularly focusing on relating explicit and implicit types of information. The aim of the presented research is to develop a computational environment that combines several modes of representation, including and integrating different forms of architectural design knowledge. Development of an interactive digital-models library and ontological model of architectural design factors are discus
Great Zoom out of Los Angeles, CA: The Hollywood Sign
Using data from different spacecraft and some powerful computer technology, visualizers at the Goddard Space Flight Center present you with a collection of American cities in a way you have never seen them before. Starting with our camera high above the Earth, we rush in towards the surface at what would be an impossible speed for any known vehicle. Passing though layers of atmosphere, the colors of our destinations shimmer with their own unique characteristics, and suddenly we find ourselves fl

ART 265-01, Pompeii: Toman Culture in Microcosm, Fall 2005
This course will examine the archaeological remains of the city of Pompeii and its environs, which were buried by the eruption of Mt. Vesuvius in 79 C.E. The preservation of this area allows for an unparalleled opportunity to explore how the ancient Romans really lived and, most importantly, how Roman art and architecture was experienced and understood by its contemporary viewers. Students will be evaluated on their understanding of course content as well as their ability to make close observati
ART 231-01, History of Western Art I, Fall 2005
The objectives of the course are as follows: (1) to provide students with a comprehensive overview of major images, artists, and movements in Western art from Prehistory through the Middle Ages; (2) to integrate these images with the broader cultural history of the period; and (3) to develop visual and analytical skills appropriate to further study in Art History. This course is the first half of a year-long survey of Western Art and students are encouraged to continue with Art 232. Students are
ART 105-01, Beginning Painting, Fall 2005
This class is an opportunity to explore the possibilities of paint. You can expect to be immersed in certain fundamentals of material and technique including application, color, texture, scale and composition. But mostly you will be encouraged to experiment and have accidents. As Bacon implied, happy accidents can be a great source of strength and a catalyst for evolution in painting. You will find that the best way to create these conditions is to paint a lot. Here’s your opportunity to learn
