Visual and Expressive Form Qualities Attainable in Thrown Pottery Vessels by Use of Various Lips and Feet
… are closely related by similar feet, bodies, and lips. The variety of form qualities sought for were of a visual nature; the entire pot seeming to appear more or less vertical or more or less horizontal than others with the same type of body but with different shapes of lips and feet selected to …

Terrence McNally’s Universalizing Model: The Role of Disability in <em>Andre’s Mother; Lips Together, Teeth Apart</em>; and <em>Love! Valour! Compassion!</em>
… his works such as <em>Andre’s Mother</em>; <em>Lips Together, Teeth Apart</em>; and <em>Love! Valour! Compassion!</em>, playwright Terrence McNally utilizes categorically gay themes such as homophobia and living with HIV and AIDS in a time when little was understood about the illnesses. For …

Fabrication of natural and magnetic slippery surfaces
Liquid-infused porous surfaces (LIPS) are a type of low adhesion surfaces. They allow most common solids and liquids to slide off the surface easily. Because of this they are able to reduce the adhesion of food, ice, and even blood platelets to surfaces. As a result, LIPS have applications in …

An electromyographic study of the orbicularis oris muscle of cerebral palsied spastic hemiplegics
… activity on the right and left side of the lips. The age range was between eight years and seventeen years. No limitations were placed on age, sex, or race since the purpose of the study was to determine any differences in activity between the right and left sides of the orbicularis oris …

Dietary crude protein and nitrogen utilisation in two contrasting dairy systems : a thesis presented in partial fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in Animal Science, School of Agriculture and Environment, Massey University, Palmerston North, New Zealand
… seasons, in the low-intensity production system (LIPS), 257 cows were milked once-daily with low supplementation, and in the high-intensity production system (HIPS), 210 cows were milked twice-daily with higher supplementation. At every herd test, ECPU was calculated as protein yield (PY) divided …

Thermotropic and lyotropic mesophases formed by some lithium soaps.
… unusual semi-crystalline lithium phenylstearate (LiPS) soap mixture composed of 12 positional isomers, was studied using differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) and polarizing microscopy (plus x-ray diffraction and 7Li NMR spectroscopy for the latter). Each soap exhibited a characteristic stepwise …

Development and Application of a Novel Assay for Rapid Identification of Cellular Prion Protein Modulators
… Light-Identification of Protein Suppressors (LIPS), designed for real-time monitoring of PrPC expression and modulation. The LIPS system is based on the Bimolecular Fluorescence Complementation (BiFC) technique, usually used for protein-protein interaction study, and here adapted for protein …

Lip Detection and Adaptive Tracking
… are examined that are effective for segmenting lips from skin pixels. These color components and several features are used to characterize lips and to train cascaded lip detectors. Pre- and post-processing techniques are employed to maximize detector accuracy. The trained lip detector is …

Evaluation of the impact of adherence to project governance principles on the outcome of large infrastructure projects implemented in developing economies with Nigeria as an example
… perception that large infrastructure projects (LIPs) implemented in developing economies fail to meet their original estimations and specifications more than those implemented in developed economies. This situation results in weak infrastructural development in developing economies, which, has …

Wearable lip-based electrotactile display : feasibility study, modeling, and system design
… due to the excellent sensory characteristics of lips. Since lips have never been utilized for tactile display applications, two human- subject experiments (6M/2F) including threshold measurement and two-line separation rating, have been designed to investigate the electrotactile sensitivity and …

The morphology of the intraparietal sulcus in children prenatally exposed to alcohol in a sample of children from the Western Cape, South Africa and its potential relationship with number processing
… the medial wall (MIPS) and the lateral wall (LIPS) respectively. The neuroimaging program MultiTracer was used for the manual tracing and to calculate the volume of the cortex of both the MIPS and LIPS. The purpose of this first analysis was to examine the effects of PAE on IPS volume and …

Changes in Lip Position Coincident with the Movement of Artificial Teeth
… maxillary central incisors will produce in the lips. Not only was the anterior-posterior position of the lips measured but also the amount of the interlabial gap was noted. Acrylic bite blocks were constructed. The maxillary one had wire pins imbedded in the molar region which would fit into …

A Unified And Green Platform For Smartphone Sensing
… integrated into this unified platform: SOR and LIPS. SOR is a smartphone Sensing based Objective Ranking (SOR) system. Different from a few subjective online review and recommendation systems (such as Yelp and TripAdvisor), SOR ranks a target place based on data collected via smartphone sensing. …

Reliable image reconstruction techniques : enforcing measurement consistency in deep learning methods
Solving linear inverse problems (LIPs) is an integral process within many scientific fields. These problems typically involve attempting to reconstruct a model or signal from a set of observations or effects. In practise, LIPs can take many different forms. These encompass anything from a magnetic …
