Ghetto Biennale 2015: Contested creativities in Haiti’s Ghetto Biennale
Authors: Haffner Peter
Published: March 2017

In the latest iteration of the event, the organizers of and participants in Haiti’s Fourth Ghetto Biennale have attempted to identify, address and rectify some of the major issues at stake, including concerns related to cross-cultural artistic agency, themes of disaster and crisis, the tourist ‘gaze’, and Haitian art history. By examining four of the arts projects executed during the two-week event in downtown Port-au-Prince, this article analyses the shifts and adjustments between the Second Ghetto Biennale in 2011 and the fourth in 2015, and how the biennale’s artists and curators have attempted to address and account for points of contestation.
Nihilist fashion in 1860s–1870s Russia: The aesthetic relations of blue spectacles to reality
Authors: Thorstensson Victoria
Published: March 2017

The ‘nihilist epoch’ in Russia of the 1860s was plagued by the mismatches between art and reality that could be discerned everywhere, from the philosophical maxims of the nihilists to their dress. Nikolai Chernyshevsky’s notorious master’s thesis ‘The Aesthetic Relations of Art to Reality’ started that episteme, while his novel What Is to Be Done? provided codes of behaviour that were followed minutely by its fans. The article explores the gap between, on the one hand, the sartorial protests of real-life nihilists (fundamental to their construction of nihilist identity) and, on the other, the dress of the ‘new men’, modelled after the ideologues of the nihilist movement, such as Chernyshevsky. The analysis of the sartorial code of nihilism shows that it organically grew out of earlier European sartorial protest movements. In addition, I demonstrate how Chernyshevsky undermined his aesthetic theory by ‘not looking at life through blue spectacles’ as he tried to reflect reality and create the literary type of the ‘new man’, contributing to the later divergence between the sociocultural codes of ‘new men’ and ‘nihilists’.
Professorial reflection: Creative experiments with the capture (and release) of performance through research and scholarship
Authors: Keeney Hillary , Keeney Bradford
Published: March 2017

Researchers of any form of embodied, creative performance including dance, movement, theatre, music or even the healing arts face the challenge of bridging the inherent gap between the performances themselves and the commentary (theories and analyses) we generate about them. This article is a conversation between the authors, discussing the ways they have grappled with the relationship between description and performance across their research, scholarship and practice in both the healing and performing arts. The discussion includes an introduction to a qualitative research method called Recursive Frame Analysis (RFA), originally developed by Bradford Keeney as a way of mapping the movement of change-oriented conversation. In addition to the application of RFA to research in dance, the authors discuss their experiences conducting ethnographic research on the Kalahari Ju/’hoan Bushman (San) healing dance. The Bushmen have their own unique way of handling the relationship between embodied experience and explanatory commentary, which is presented herein through their story of First and Second Creation. The latter offers an ancient and astute contextual framework for holding the relationship between language and non-language mediated experience that dancers and scholars of dance may find intriguing. This conversation as a whole is intended to open up further thinking and dialogue about the relationship between performance and scholarship, as well as inspire dancers and performers of all kinds to develop creative approaches to scholarly enquiry that affirm rather than detract from the complexity and richness of performance itself.
Somatically inspired movement and prepatriarchal religious symbolism
Authors: Williamson Amanda , Eddy Martha , Hartley Linda , Talyor Mark , Meléndez Enrique , Abrams Mary
Published: March 2017

In this article I examine how religious symbolism is enacted in movement underpinned by somatic awareness, but, of note, a matrifocal religious symbolism – certainly holistic symbols that pre-date patriarchal religion, such as the circle, water, spiral, serpent and womb. Although these symbols continue to live on, somewhat transformed in patriarchal religions, I observe it is symbols related to the re-emergence and reconstruction of the palaeolithic and neolithic Goddess, painstakingly and contentiously unearthed through critical feminist voices, that play a more creative role in the pedagogies of movement-based somatics. The first part of this article examines the palaeolithic and neolithic Goddess, where the female principle is positioned as the source and genesis of religious symbolism; the second part weaves together how prepatriarchal symbols are embedded in ontogenetic and phylogenetic somatic movement exploration. While there is much popular literature on polytheistic Goddess pantheons in neopagan, wiccan and new-age spiritual movements, I turn my attention in this article to the prehistoric Goddess, articulating key ideas from scholars working in archaeology, critical feminism and cultural history, such as Irwin Thompson, Marija Gimbutas, Sjöö and Mor, Merlin Stone, and Carol Christ. Here I explore how somatic movement dance education is not a direct expression of the prehistoric prepatriarchal Goddess (nor an appropriation), but does engage and enact some of the world’s most primordial religious symbolism, in turn reflecting the prehistoric Goddess and Her more-than-human cellular matrix.

Setting variables: Axes of time, space and meaning in production design for the screen
Authors: Britton Piers D.
Published: March 2017

My focus in this article is twofold. Firstly, I address the commonalities between production design for film and television, in terms of what and how design signifies. Secondly, I explore differences in the semiotic potential of design for the two media. I argue here that what design most securely signifies is genre, and I also offer a qualified endorsement of the frequent claim that design indexes narrative mood and tone. Design imagery establishes both mood and generic affiliation by calling upon viewers’ tendency to interpret new stimuli in relation to established standards. In other words, design satisfies primarily in terms of its perceived ‘rightness’, in relation either to genre precedent or more nebulous benchmarks such as realism. Conversely, while a set or costume always contributes in some way to the formation of tone, it may simply set the ‘wrong’ tone for certain stakeholders, based on their expectations or tastes. Consequently, I argue that design imagery is at best imprecise as a signifying element in screen fiction. As to distinctions between media, I argue here that there is a polarity between the ‘slow fuse’ operation of design imagery in the television series and the ‘fast acting fuse’ of design for the feature film. The relative brevity of a feature film necessitates that all formal elements make a powerful, rapid impression. In the television series, by contrast, sets that recur from episode to episode are likely to be less assertive and are deployed in less immediately imposing ways. In long-form screen fiction sets and their decor tend to present imagery that can subtly grow in its interest and suggestiveness, as audiences repeatedly engage with it from episode to episode.

‘Now I can never go back’: The thwarted returns of temporary labour migrants from China in Perth, Western Australia
Authors: Stevens Catriona
Published: March 2017

From the early 2000s onwards, labour migrants from China with technical work skills but low educational attainment arrived in Australia with fixed-term, temporary plans. Yet, to their surprise, many have been thwarted in their plans to return, and have instead experienced an unexpected transition to permanent residency (PR). Reasons include rapid economic growth in China and the rising cost of housing; the challenges of re-entering the competitive Chinese education system for children accustomed to Australian schools; and the realization that time spent overseas has limited work opportunities upon return. They describe their experiences in terms that closely resemble classical labour migrations of colonial and postcolonial eras. Return and discourses of return must be understood within contemporary migration models that emphasize circular, transient and open-ended mobility. Yet individual migrants still articulate migration trajectories and return plans that are grounded in simpler conceptions of ‘here’ and ‘there’. While recognizing the contemporary shift towards mobile and transnational lives among elites and non-elites alike, it is important not to overlook the very real and material barriers to return that some temporary migrants claim to experience.

Obvladovanje dejavnikov tveganja za nastanek srčno-žilnih bolezni v referenčni ambulanti družinske medicine
Authors: Terbovc Alenka , Gomišček Boštjan
Published: March 2017

Uvod: Model referenčnih ambulant družinske medicine prinaša spremembe v obravnavi pacientov. Namen raziskave je bil preučiti dejavnike tveganja, ki prispevajo k zmanjšanju nastanka srčno-žilnih bolezni z nefarmakološkimi ukrepi pri pacientih v referenčni ambulanti družinske medicine.

Metode: Narejena je bila retrogradna raziskava podatkov pacientov, ki so bili obravnavani v referenčnih ambulantah za srčno-žilno ogroženost. Naključni raziskovalni vzorec je obsegal 128 pacientov, ki so v obdobju od 1. maja do 25. avgusta 2014 v referenčni ambulanti družinske medicine opravili presejalni in kontrolni pregled. Podatki so bili analizirani z opisno statistiko in hi-kvadrat testom.

Rezultati: Pri obravnavanih pacientih so bili pri kontrolnem pregledu v primerjavi s presejalnim ugotovljeni višji deleži urejenih preiskovanih parametrov, in sicer pri krvnem tlaku (41,6 %), holesterolu (45,5 %) in krvnem sladkorju (53,3 %), zmanjšal se je tudi delež kadilcev, in sicer za 4 %. Visoka srčno-žilna ogroženost (20–40 %) se je pri kontrolni meritvi znižala na 28 %, zelo visoka na 6,6 %. Po obravnavi v ambulanti se je telesna aktivnost, izvajana od 2- do 4-krat na teden, povečala na 54,3 % oz. telesna aktivnost, izvajana 5-krat na teden, na 19,4 %. Statistično značilne razlike so se pokazale pri krvnem tlaku (χ2 = 8,780, p = 0,003) in holesterolu (χ2 = 4,781, p = 0,029).

Diskusija in zaključek: Po ambulantni obravnavi se je pri pacientih pomembno izboljšala vrednost nekaterih dejavnikov tveganja, kar je moč pripisati kakovostni obravnavi, ki jo omogoča model referenčnih ambulant, in vlogi diplomirane medicinske sestre v tem modelu.
Use of cutting-edge biomedical devices for intravenous cannulation in the health care of a patient: literature review
Authors: Fekonja Zvonka , Pajnkihar Majda
Published: March 2017

Introduction: Biomedical devices are tools used for locating invisible and impalpable peripheral veins. The purpose of this article is to give a systematic review and analysis of existing studies on the available biomedical devices used for locating peripheral veins and on their effectiveness in clinical practice. Methods: Databases CINAHL, Medline and ScienceDirect were used for the literature review and analysis. The search was performed with the following key words in English: devices, visualization, technology, cannulation, vein, nursing care, with Boolean operators 'AND' and 'OR'. The analysis included randomized and experimental clinical studies published in the English language in the period from 2000 to August 2016. From a total of 1,020 retrieved studies, 17 were included in the detailed analysis. Results: The results of the analysis have shown that the success rate of the first attempt of intravenous cannulation using biomedical devices in more than half of the studies was not significantly higher than when the process was performed using the conventional method. The success of the first attempt of intravenous cannulation mostly depends on the experience and skills of nurses. Biomedical devices are more helpful for novice nurses who do not perform cannulation on a daily basis, for beginners and nursing students. Discussion and conclusions: Based on research, we cannot affirm that biomedical devices significantly contribute to easier peripheral venous cannulation. Further research is required to validate the advantages of such an approach. However, this is limited due to the affordability issues of such biomedical devices.

Therefore, the Muslims thought of usury is not far from what has been inferred by the four Imam mazdhab. Finally Islamic law really can not answer the development of society. Bank interest is equated with usury which both born differ in the time span, the different communities of the background, a different effect. Therefore interest rates clearly differ from usury and should not be equated with riba. That is why people ignore the MUI fatwa in business transactions.

In the context of practical guideline, the implementation of Pancasila should adapt to the development of national and international community. The breakdown of Pancasila’s values should be reconstructed continuously order to always stay relevant as problem solver and able to keep up with the the times. Revitalization and reinterpretation of Pancasila as a ideology should always be done in order to not become obsolete so abandoned by its adherents.
On the misuse of graphical user interface elements to implement security controls

GUIs are the predominant means by which users interact with modern programs.
GUIs contain a number of common visual elements widgets such as buttons, textfields,
and lists, and GUIs typically provide the ability to change attributes on these widgets
to control their visibility and behavior.
While these attributes are extremely useful to provide visual cues to users to guide them
through an application's GUI, they can also be misused for purposes they were
not intended.
In particular, in the context of GUI-based applications that
include multiple privilege levels within the application, GUI element attributes

Antihypernociceptive and antioxidant effects of Petersianthus macrocarpus stem bark extracts in rats with complete Freund’s adjuvant-induced persistent inflammatory pain
Authors: Bomba Francis Desire Tatsinkou , Wandji Bibiane Aimée , Fofié Christian Kuete , Kamanyi Albert , Nguelefack Télesphore Benoit
Published: March 2017

Background

Petersianthus macrocarpus (P. Beauv.) Liben (Lecythidaceae) is a plant used in Cameroonian folk medicine to cure ailments such as inflammation and pain. Previous work showed that aqueous (AEPM) and methanol (MEPM) extracts from the stem bark of P. macrocarpus possess acute analgesic activities. The present study evaluates whether the same extracts could inhibit persistent hyperalgesia induced by complete Freund’s adjuvant (CFA) in rats.

Methods

Inflammatory pain was induced by intraplantar injection of CFA into the left hind paw of Wistar rats. AEPM and MEPM were administered either acutely or chronically by the oral route at the doses of 100 and 200 mg/kg/day. The mechanical hyperalgesia was tested using an analgesimeter, while the locomotion activity at the end of experiment was evaluated with an open-field device. Nitric oxide (NO), malondialdehyde (MDA) and superoxide dismutase (SOD) contents were assayed in the brain and spinal cord of rats subjected to 14 days chronic treatment.

Results

AEPM and MEPM at both doses significantly (p<0.001) inhibited the acute and chronic mechanical hyperalgesia induced by CFA. Although not significant, both extracts increased the mobility of CFA-injected animals. AEPM significantly (p<0.01) reduced the level of nitrate at 100 mg/kg, MDA at 200 mg/kg and significantly (p<0.05) increased the SOD in the spinal cord. MEPM significantly increased the SOD content and reduced the MDA concentration in the brain but had no effect on the nitrate.

Conclusions

AEPM and MEPM exhibit acute and chronic antihyperalgesic activities. In addition, both extracts possess antioxidant properties that might strengthen their chronic antihyperalgesic effects.

Mining DNA Sequence Patterns with Constraints Using Hybridization of Firefly and Group Search Optimization
Authors: Lakshmanna Kuruva , Khare Neelu
Published: March 2017

DNA sequence mining is essential in the study of the structure and function of the DNA sequence. A few exploration works have been published in the literature concerning sequence mining in information mining task. Similarly, in our past paper, an effective sequence mining was performed on a DNA database utilizing constraint measures and group search optimization (GSO). In that study, GSO calculation was utilized to optimize the sequence extraction process from a given DNA database. However, it is apparent that, occasionally, such an arbitrary seeking system does not accompany the optimal solution in the given time. To overcome the problem, we proposed in this work multiple constraints with hybrid firefly and GSO (HFGSO) algorithm. The complete DNA sequence mining process comprised the following three modules: (i) applying prefix span algorithm; (ii) calculating the length, width, and regular expression (RE) constraints; and (iii) optimal mining via HFGSO. First, we apply the concept of prefix span, which detects the frequent DNA sequence pattern using a prefix tree. Based on this prefix tree, length, width, and RE constraints are applied to handle restrictions. Finally, we adopt the HFGSO algorithm for the completeness of the mining result. The experimentation is carried out on the standard DNA sequence dataset, and the evaluation with DNA sequence dataset and the results show that our approach is better than the existing approach.
Numerical modeling of the thermoelectric cooler with a complementary equation for heat circulation in air gaps
Authors: Fang En , Wu Xiaojie , Yu Yuesen , Xiu Junrui
Published: March 2017

In this paper, a numerical model is developed by combining thermodynamics with heat transfer theory. Taking inner and external multi-irreversibility into account, it is with a complementary equation for heat circulation in air gaps of a steady cooling system with commercial thermoelectric modules operating in refrigeration mode. With two modes concerned, the equation presents the heat flowing through air gaps which forms heat circulations between both sides of thermoelectric coolers (TECs). In numerical modelling, a TEC is separated as two temperature controlled constant heat flux reservoirs in a thermal resistance network. In order to obtain the parameter values, an experimental apparatus with a commercial thermoelectric cooler was built to characterize the performance of a TEC with heat source and sink assembly. At constant power dissipation, steady temperatures of heat source and both sides of the thermoelectric cooler were compared with those in a standard numerical model. The method displayed that the relationship betweenΦfand the ratioΦc′/Φc$\varPhi_{{\text c}}'/\varPhi_{{\text c}}$was linear as expected. Then, for verifying the accuracy of proposed numerical model, the data in another system were recorded. It is evident that the experimental results are in good agreement with simulation(proposed model) data at different heat transfer rates. The error is small and mainly results from the instabilities of thermal resistances with temperature change and heat flux, heat loss of the device vertical surfaces and measurements.

Transient Fatigue is Not Influenced by Ball-In-Play Time During Elite Rugby League Matches
Authors: Waldron Mark , Thomson Edward , Highton Jamie , Twist Craig
Published: March 2017

Waldron, M, Thomson, E, Highton, J, and Twist, C. Transient fatigue is not influenced by ball-in-play time during elite rugby league matches. J Strength Cond Res 33(1): 146–151, 2019—The capacity to sustain high-speed running is important for rugby league players. Transient fatigue, described as a reduction in high-speed running in the 5 minutes after a peak 5-minute period, is a phenomenon observed during rugby league matches. This concept has recently been questioned based on the proposed confounding influence of ball-in-play time during these periods. Therefore, this study examined the changes in high-speed running (>14 km·h−1) of elite rugby league players, and ball-in-play time, during the peak, subsequent, and mean 5-minute periods of 5 competitive matches using 5-Hz Global Positioning System devices. The suitability of ball-in-play time as a covariate was also evaluated. The high-speed running and ball-in-play time was different between peak (26.7 ± 5.5 m·min−1 and 177 ± 37 seconds) and subsequent (12.1 ± 6.2 m·min−1 and 147 ± 37 seconds) 5-minute periods (p ≤ 0.05; most likely ↓). However, there was no relationship (r = 0.01 to −0.13; p > 0.05) between ball-in-play time and high-speed running, and ball-in-play time was not independent of the match period. This study has reaffirmed the presence of transient fatigue during elite rugby league matches but questioned the influence of ball-in-play time as a confounding factor. These observations have implications for the design of appropriate training practices and informing tactical strategies used by coaches. Most importantly, any practitioner wishing to measure transient fatigue could follow a similar statistical approach taken herein and based on the current findings would not need to account for ball-in-play time as a confounding variable.

Smilios, I, Myrkos, A, Zafeiridis, A, Toubekis, A, Spassis, A, and Tokmakidis, SP. The effects of recovery duration during high-intensity interval exercise on time spent at high rates of oxygen consumption, oxygen kinetics, and blood lactate. J Strength Cond Res 32(8): 2183–2189, 2018—The recovery duration and the work-to-recovery ratio are important aspects to consider when designing a high-intensity aerobic interval exercise (HIIE). This study examined the effects of recovery duration on total exercise time performed above 80, 90, and 95% of maximum oxygen consumption (V̇o
2max) and heart rate (HRmax) during a single-bout HIIE. We also evaluated the effects on V̇o
2 and HR kinetics, blood lactate concentration, and rating of perceived exertion (RPE). Eleven moderately trained men (22.1 ± 1 year) executed, on 3 separate sessions, 4 × 4-minute runs at 90% of maximal aerobic velocity (MAV) with 2, 3, and 4 minutes of active recovery. Recovery duration did not affect the percentage of V̇o
2max attained and the total exercise time above 80, 90, and 95% of V̇o
2max. Exercise time above 80 and 90% of HRmax was longer with 2 and 3 minutes (p ≤ 0.05) as compared with the 4-minute recovery. Oxygen uptake and HR amplitude were lower, mean response time slower (p ≤ 0.05), and blood lactate and RPE higher with 2 minutes compared with 4-minute recovery (p ≤ 0.05). In conclusion, aerobic metabolism attains its upper functional limits with either 2, or 3 or 4 minutes of recovery during the 4 × 4-minute HIIE; thus, all rest durations could be used for the enhancement of aerobic capacity in sports, fitness, and clinical settings. The short (2 minutes) compared with longer (4 minutes) recovery, however, evokes greater cardiovascular and metabolic stress and activates to a greater extent anaerobic glycolysis and hence, could be used by athletes to induce greater overall physiological challenge.
Radiological surveillance in multiple endocrine neoplasia type 1: a double-edged sword?
Authors: Casey Ruth Therese , Saunders Deborah , Challis Benjamin George , Pitfield Deborah , Cheow Heok , Shaw Ashley , Simpson Helen Lisa
Published: March 2017

Context

Multiple endocrine neoplasia type 1 (MEN1) is a hereditary condition characterised by the predisposition to hyperplasia/tumours of endocrine glands. MEN1-related disease, moreover, malignancy related to MEN1, is increasingly responsible for death in up to two-thirds of patients. Although patients undergo radiological and biochemical surveillance, current recommendations for radiological monitoring are based on non-prospective data with little consensus or evidence demonstrating improved outcome from this approach. Here, we sought to determine whether cumulative radiation exposure as part of the recommended radiological screening programme posed a distinct risk in a cohort of patients with MEN1.

Patients and study design

A retrospective review of 43 patients with MEN1 attending our institution between 2007 and 2015 was performed. Demographic and clinical information including phenotype was obtained for all patients. We also obtained details regarding all radiological procedures performed as part of MEN1 surveillance or disease localisation. An estimated effective radiation dose (ED) for each individual patient was calculated.

Results

The mean ED for the total patient cohort was 121 mSv, and the estimated mean lifetime risk of cancer secondary to radiation exposure was 0.49%. Patients with malignant neuroendocrine tumours (NETS) had significantly higher ED levels compared to patients without metastatic disease (P < 0.0022).

Conclusions

In MEN1, radiological surveillance is associated with clinically significant exposure to ionising radiation. In patients with MEN1, multi-modality imaging strategies designed to minimise this exposure should be considered.
