The Meanings of "Innovation" in Theological Libraries
Authors: Elia Anthony J , Veldheer Kris , Turner Bob 
Published: March 2019

Part 1: Examining the “Theological-Industrial-Complex”
ABSTRACT
The use of the term innovation in recent years has been widely debated, but also widely used in theological education. The question we are asking is whether innovation is inherently a set of “bold ideas” or merely “empty promises,” based on a systematic need to change environments for the sake of change, rather than the sake of need. In the first presentation, we will discuss the history of the term “innovation,” why it has become tied to technology, and what the underpinning power-structure of the “theological-industrial-complex” is and has to do with innovation in our theological institutions.
Part 2: How Do We Talk About Innovation?
Abstract
This was a presentation in three parts with the second part being about how do we talk about innovation. Several points were raised including the language of innovation and the myths of innovation. Finally, based on an article by Girish Rishi, three paths to innovation were highlighted along with a number of lessons to be implemented as well.
Part 3: Culture of Innovation or Innovation of Culture?
Abstract
When we think of innovation we often associate the word with digital technology, such as software, apps, and electronic books. Yet our view of innovation should not be limited to the stuff that we create, or that others create for us. Instead, we can think of innovation as the way that we creatively understand and apply our strengths to our workplaces. In this paper I will argue that the creative use of our strengths, not the total remaking of our libraries, is the best way to adapt to the constant changes in our field and world.
“The Life-Changing Magic of Tidying Up”
Authors: Limpitlaw Amy , Spomer Michelle , Estelle-Holmer Suzanne 
Published: March 2019

“The Life-Changing Magic of Tidying Up” recalls Marie Kondo's 2014 influential book of the same name, from which we took our inspiration. The panelists discussed how "tidying up" parts of their collections, while in some ways a daunting process, is nevertheless a worthwhile and important endeavor for libraries. Each panelist included a summary of what part of the collection needed tidying, how they undertook the process, and what were the results of the process. The parts of the library collection considered in this presentation specifically were periodical subscriptions, reference works, and standing orders for book series.

The Theology of Cybersecurity
Authors: Elia Anthony J. 
Published: March 2019

Institutions of higher learning, including seminaries and theological schools around the world are increasingly faced with not just keeping information safe, but needing to be proactive against external cyber-threats on a global scale. Unlike the world of twenty-five years ago, unknown actors 10,000 miles away have the potential to infiltrate, infect, hold hostage with ransomware, and even destroy our valued information. In this presentation I will address both the functional, relevant, and practical questions about cybersecurity in seminaries and theological schools, and the theological and ethical questions about being proactive stewards of cyber-infrastructure. The role of cybersecurity reaches all members of a community and can affect everything from student library accounts to the reputation of an institution. In this paper we will look at both the practical and the theological-ethical nature of cybersecurity in theological institutions, and ask how we can be more engaged and better protected against potential threats.
Changing Seminaries, Changing Libraries, Changing Selves
Authors: Welsh Megan Elizabeth , Milas Patrick 
Published: March 2019

Religious identities and practices are changing. Religious studies and theological educators are adapting curricula and services to support increasingly diverse student populations. On an institutional level, some religious studies departments and seminaries' priorities are changing, too.
For example, Princeton Theological Seminary (PTS) remains one of ten seminaries of the Presbyterian Church (USA), but currently, only 28% of students identify as PCUSA personally and over fifty Christian traditions are represented, reflecting a trend toward ecumenism. ATS-accredited institutions have faculty and students whose faiths are outside of Judeo-Christian traditions, principal traditions that comprise the ATLA membership. Additionally, there is increased representation from secular institutions (e.g., University of Colorado Boulder) and organizations not affiliated with specific denominations within ATLA membership.
It's time for librarians to share with each other their perceptions of their institutions’ relationships with students, administrations, and denominations, and where they fit within ATLA personally.
Indexing the Theologico-Political
Authors: Kuehn Evan Francis , Goodwin Shawn 
Published: March 2019

Political theology is an important and growing field of theological research, which has also attracted the attention of political scientists, philosophers, and social theorists. This interest has led to different and often ambiguous definitions of what political theology actually is. In addition, related subfields like liberation theology, public theology, and critical theory are often associated with political theology, making categorization challenging. It is important that theological librarians understand the changing terrain of theological-political inquiry in order to better provide access for their research communities.
In this paper, we present findings about the range of current description practices for books and journal articles related to political theology. We share preliminary explorations in mining cataloged resources for subject headings related to political theology, as well as full text of titles in HathiTrust for clusters of words that can be modeled as topics. These tools can help librarians to better understand the research literature they are describing, and engage with it more actively.
Low Velocity Impact Behaviour of Damaged Composite Plates Repaired by Composite Patches
Authors: CALİSKAN Umut , EKİCİ Recep , APALAK Mustafa Kemal 
Published: March 2019

Adhesive bonding techniqe is used in many engineering applications. Repairs based on adhesively bonded fibre composite patches are becoming widely accepted for repairing cracks or other defects. Patch application to damaged materials with adhesive bonding is used to extend the service life of the material. In this study, patches were bonded damaged fiber-reinforced laminated composite plates and the dynamic load resistance was investigated numerically. Damaged composite plates and fiber reinforced composite patches are bonded with adhesive. Non-linear finite element analyses were performed in the ABAQUS finite element software. A cohesive zone model based on fracture mechanics was used as the adhesive material model. Low velocity impact behaviour of damaged plates reparied by composite patches was also investigated for different patch material such as aluminum and fiber reinforced composite. Impact analyses performed on different impact energy with constant impactor weight were investigated in terms of contact force variations, kinetic energy variations and impact damage. Damged plates without patch were perforated and damaged. Composite patches absorb impact energy and prevent the perforation.

Language is a communication tool between members of the community which produced by human utterances. The purpose of language is to convey the intent and willingness to the other person. Education plays an important role in preparing quality human resources. Therefore education should be managed, both in quality and quantity. This can be achieved if students can complete their education on time with good learning outcomes.The data shows that many high school students are poor skilled in English. The main factor for the success of students in the learning process is the teacher. How a teacher delivers teaching material so that students succeed in mastering the material presented is the responsibility of the teacher itself. A teacher's professional competence is a set of abilities that must be possessed by a teacher so that he can carry out his teaching tasks successfully The purpose of this study is to determine the effect of student perceptions on teacher competence and confidence in English language skills The research method used is the survey method. In this study a sample of 90 students was taken. The technique of data collection is done by distributing questionnaires to objects that will be examined using a Likert scale. The results of the study showed that there was a significant influence between students' perceptions of teacher competence and confidence in English skills.
Revisiting the orality-literacy relationship and its implications for English language teaching in Bangladesh
Authors: Ali Md Maksud 
Published: March 2019

This paper focuses on different concepts of literacy and their implications for TESOL (Teaching English to Speakers of Other Languages). Taking a critical perspective, the study examines the traditional concept of literacy and illuminates how a narrow approach to literacy may lead to a conflict between national policy text and the actual pedagogic practices. Therefore, the author advocates for situating contemporary TESOL pedagogy within a broader concept. In addition, the study examines how literacy is embedded with orality, and whether the link between them has any implications for English language education in Bangladesh. It is argued here that since different cultures and societies do not adhere to a single set of literacy practices, an awareness of learners’ and other stakeholders’ socio-cultural concepts of literacy in a society is essential for TESOL practitioners in order for their materials and methods to be socio-culturally responsive. The study has implications for policy makers, materials writers and TESOL practitioners.

Domestic measures during peace time for the implementation of International Humanitarian Law (IHL)
Authors: Islam Mohammad Saidul 
Published: March 2019

International Humanitarian Law (IHL) is frequently neglected by the Parties to the Geneva Conventions during armed conflict (AC). In the contemporary world, IHL has been facing a great threat due to lack of proper implementation which resulted in the severe wounds, unnecessary sufferings, superfluous injury, and even death to the civilians, children, women, and combatants in and outside the armed field. For the implementation of IHL, it is essential that States must take proper steps during peace, conflict, and post-conflict time. The article presents the various mechanisms of implementation of IHL need to be taken by the States during the time of peace. It also focuses the most significant peace time steps sought to be taken by the State to make the IHL rules familiar to the civilians and combatant, to ensure the availability of the necessary instrumentalities for using those during AC for protection and minimization of the sufferings of the victims and to enact essential legislation for trial of the violators after the end of the conflict.

Characterization of Exoplanet Atmospheres with the Optical Coronagraph on WFIRST

Abstract

Wide-Field Infrared Survey Telescope (WFIRST)-CGI is a NASA technology demonstration mission that is charged with demonstrating key technologies for future exo-Earth imaging missions in space. In the process, it will obtain images and low-resolution spectra of a handful to a dozen extrasolar planets and possibly protoplanetary disks. Its unprecedented contrast levels in the optical will provide astronomers’ with their first direct look at mature, Jupiter-sized planets at moderate separations. This paper addresses the question: what science can be done with such data? An analytic noise model, which is informed by the ongoing engineering developments, is used to compute maximum achievable signal-to-noise ratios and scientifically viable integration times for hypothetical star–planet systems, as well as to investigate the constraining power of various combinations of WFIRST-CGI photometric and spectral observations. This work introduces two simple models for planetary geometric albedos, which are inspired largely by the solar system’s gas giants. The first planet model is a hybrid Jupiter–Neptune model, which separately treats the short and long wavelengths where chromophores and methane dominate absorption, respectively. The second planet model fixes cloud and haze properties in CoolTLusty to match Jupiter’s albedo spectrum, it then perturbs only the metallicity. MCMC retrievals performed on simulated observations are used to assess the precision with which planet model parameters can be measured subject to different exposure times and observing cases. Planet radius is recovered within ±15% for all observing cases with both the hybrid model and the CoolTLusty metallicity grid. Fit results for both models’ parameterizations of geometric albedo spectra demonstrate that a rough indication of the metallicity or methane content should be possible for some WFIRST-CGI targets. We conclude that real observations will likely be able to differentiate between extreme cases using these models, but will lack the precision necessary to uncover subtle trends.

Abstract
We use a sample of ∼3000 galaxies from the MaNGA MPL-7 internal data release to study the α abundance distribution within low-redshift galaxies. We use the Lick index ratio Mgb/

as an α abundance indicator to study relationships between the α abundance distribution and galaxy properties such as effective stellar velocity dispersion within 0.3 effective radii (σ
*), galaxy environment, and dark matter halo formation time (z

f
). We find that (1) all galaxies show a tight correlation between Mgb/

and

(2) “old” (Hβ < 3) low-σ
* galaxies in high local density environment and inner regions within galaxy groups are enhanced in Mgb/

, while “young” (Hβ > 3) galaxies and high-mass galaxies show no or less environmental dependence; (3) “old” galaxies with high-z

f
show enhanced Mgb/

over low- and medium-z

f
; and (4) Mgb/

gradients are close to zero and show dependence on σ
* but no obvious dependence on the environment or z

f
. Our study indicates that stellar velocity dispersion or galaxy mass is the main parameter driving the Mgb/

enhancement, although environments appear to have modest effects, particularly for low- and medium-mass galaxies.
The Nature of Elsässer Variables in Compressible MHD
Authors: Magyar N. , Van Doorsselaere T. , Goossens M. 
Published: March 2019

Abstract
The Elsässer variables are often used in studies of plasma turbulence, in helping differentiate between MHD waves propagating parallel or antiparallel to the main magnetic field. While for pure Alfvén waves in a homogeneous plasma the method is strictly valid, we show that compressible, magnetoacoustic waves are in general described by both Elsässer variables. Furthermore, in a compressible and inhomogeneous plasma, the pure MHD waves (Alfvén, fast and slow) are no longer normal modes, but waves become linearly coupled or display mixed properties of Alfvén and magnetoacoustic nature. These waves are necessarily described by both Elsässer variables, and therefore the Elsässer formalism cannot be used to strictly separate parallel and antiparallel propagating waves. Nevertheless, even in an inhomogeneous plasma, for a highly Alfvénic wave the Elsässer variable corresponding to the propagation direction appears still dominating. We suggest that for Alfvénic waves, the relative amplitude of Elsässer variables depends on the local degree of inhomogeneity and other plasma and wave properties. This finding has implications for turbulence studies in inhomogeneous and compressible plasmas, such as the solar corona and solar wind.
Circular Polarization in Compact Radio Sources: Constraints on Particle Acceleration and Electron–Positron Pairs
Authors: Björnsson C.-I. 
Published: March 2019

Abstract
It is shown that the frequency distribution of the degree of circular polarization for a homogeneous source is sensitive to the properties of the synchrotron emitting plasma. Most of the circular polarization comes from the region around the turnover frequency, where the synchrotron radiation becomes optically thick. However, nearly circular characteristic waves result in circular polarization dominated by frequencies above the turnover frequency, while in the case of nearly linear characteristic waves, it is dominated by frequencies below. Observations argue in favor of nearly circular characteristic waves. This implies a low-energy cutoff in the electron distribution that is substantially below that corresponding to the turnover frequency and simultaneously provides an upper limit to the fraction of electron–positron pairs.

Knowledge, Attitudes, and Practices of Chinese Critical Care Nurses Regarding Physical Restraint
Authors: Cui Nianqi , Long Mengyun , Zhou Shiqun , Zhang Tian , He Chengyu , Gan Xiuni 
Published: March 2019

Background:
This multicenter cross-sectional study sought to determine the knowledge, attitudes, and practices regarding the use of physical restraints by Chinese nurses in intensive care units (ICUs) of tertiary hospitals.

Method:
A scale technique was used to measure the knowledge, attitudes, and practices of 383 RNs from eight tertiary hospitals in Chongqing, China.

Results:

A total of 383 valid questionnaires were returned, for a response rate of 89.49%. Approximately 8.1% of the nurses were male, 67.1% had a bachelor's degree or above, and 55.09% were ICU specialists. The average age was 28.62 years (
SD
= 4.56). The mean scores were 74.33 of 111 (
SD
= 9.552), 24.41 of 40 (
SD
= 4.872), and 65.66 of 130 (
SD
= 20.880) regarding knowledge, attitudes, and nursing practices, respectively. For the attitude scale, the scores of nurses who were certified ICU specialists and had extensive working experience were higher than those with less experience; the difference was statistically significant (
p
< .05).

Conclusion:

Results indicated that nurses employed in the ICUs of tertiary hospitals in Chongqing, China, have relatively insufficient knowledge, comparatively incorrect attitudes, and unreasonable means of practicing physical restraint. Continuing education should focus strongly on the relationship between physical restraint and unplanned extubation, and guidelines on physical restraint urgently need to be developed.
