AMAE 4321 - Law and the ArtsCredits: 3
Students examine, debate, and critically assess legal and ethical aspects of the creation, collection, and preservation of works of art and antiquity; the management of intellectual property and related rights in works of visual and performing arts; relationships between and among creators, performers, dealers, collectors, theatres, museums, and the public; and broader domestic and international issues impacting the art world.

The mid 1990s saw an explosion of Drag Kings in many major and smaller cities throughout the world. While documentation of this has largely occurred through publications in the USA and UK, the Internet and smaller publications have demonstrated a phenomenon that has arguably re-ignited feminist debate. In Adelaide, Australia, Ben Dover and His Beautiful Boys set the annual lesbian and gay festival alight. This chapter describes this performance to set the stage for exploration of some of the workings of 'race' and ethnicity in the creation of persona, choice of name and naming that is brought to Drag King performance. Drawing on interview material the chapter suggests that just as Drag Kings and kinging has been a useful and provocative site for closer and deeper understandings of genders, bodies and sexualities, Drag Kings and Kinging may also provide a useful site for unraveling some of the minefield that is race and racism.

The Science Literacy Project is the umbrella name for the Genetic Literacy Project online, launched in 2012 with grants from the John Templeton Foundation and Searle Freedom Trust, with future plans to engage other science topics. It's a huge success story. The GLP receives upwards of 15,000 visitors daily, accessing our vast archive of 20,000 articles. Our impact on the national debate on biotechnology is well documented. The GLP/Gene-ius Big Ideas Project is now refocusing its website and outreach efforts on Biotechnology 2.0: the revolution ignited by CRISPR/gene editing, gene therapy and synthetic biology, which are radically transforming medicine, human genetics, food and farming.
How 'synthetic' should our future be--in medicine and in farming and food? Can we ameliorate genetic diseases and insulate our food supply from climate change? Are we compromising God's or Nature's genetic code to 'perfect' humankind? What does it mean to be human?
The SLP/GLP has always focused on the intersection of science, media and policy. That will continue; but we our redesigning our site and mission to report more extensively on the legal, ethical and religious questions raised by the CRISPR revolution and other new biotechnologies that open the door to manipulating life itself.
Key to the SLP's transformation is our focus on monitoring how society 'manages' this revolution--through legislation, advocacy, science dialogues and public discourse on ethics and faith. The SLP/GLP has numerous initiatives planned, including monitoring regulations on biotechnology and the creation of a unique panel of science -savvy ethicists and theologians to promote high-profile public forums to engage the CRISPR revolution.
Presents findings of an investigation of a workplace fatality that occurred in the construction and construction trades sector in February 2020. An electrician entered an electrical room on a warehouse construction site. The worker touched energized bus bars and was electrocuted.
Presents findings of an investigation of a workplace fatality that occurred in the business and professional services sector in December 2018. A welder was grinding an oilfield steel skid when sparks ignited acetylene and caused an explosion, resulting in the death of one worker.
Flood maps are created by combining hydraulic model results with high-accuracy ground information. Field surveys and LiDAR remote sensing are used to collect river and floodplain elevations, channel cross section data, bridge and culvert information, and flood berm details. A hydrology assessment using recorded and historic flow measurements is typically used to estimate river flows for a wide range of possible open water floods with different chances of occurring each year. When appropriate, an ice jam frequency analysis is undertaken. All this information is used to build a hydraulic model of a river system, which is calibrated using highwater marks and aerial imagery from past floods to ensure that results for the different flood flows being mapped are reasonable. Flood inundation maps show areas at risk for different sized floods, including ice jam floods in some communities. These maps also identify areas that could be flooded if berms or other flood control structures fail and...
The Geological Atlas of the Western Canada Sedimentary Basin was designed primarily as a reference volume documenting the subsurface geology of the Western Canada Sedimentary Basin. This GIS dataset is one of a collection of shapefiles representing part of Chapter 12 of the Atlas, Devonian Woodbend-Winterburn Strata of the Western Canada Sedimentary Basin, Figure 34, Nisku Isopach and Lithofacies. Shapefiles were produced from archived digital files created by the Alberta Geological Survey in the mid-1990s, and edited in 2005-06 to correct, attribute and consolidate the data into single files by feature type and by figure.
The Geological Atlas of the Western Canada Sedimentary Basin was designed primarily as a reference volume documenting the subsurface geology of the Western Canada Sedimentary Basin. This GIS dataset is one of a collection of shapefiles representing part of Chapter 31 of the Atlas, Petroleum Generation and Migration in the Western Canada Sedimentary Basin, Figure 9, Nisku Petroleum System.

In 2011, for the Alberta Geological Survey Saline Aquifer Mapping Project, we collected and analyzed 40 water samples from oil wells producing from geological units, including the Cardium, Viking, Mannville, Glauconitic, Ellerslie, Nordegg, Banff, Wabamun, Nisku and Leduc, within approximately 200 km of Edmonton, Alberta. We analyzed filtered water samples for pH, density and specific conductance. oxygen, hydrogen and strontium isotopes. and dissolved constituents, including sodium, potassium, calcium, magnesium, barium, strontium, lithium, chloride, bromide, sulphate, sulphide, silica and inorganic carbon.
