Let's Agree to Disagree: Comparing Auto-Acoustic Identification Programs for Northeastern Bats
Authors: Nocera Tomás , Ford W. Mark , Silvis Alexander , Dobony Christopher A. 
Published: July 2019

Abstract
With the declines in abundance and changing distribution of white-nose syndrome–affected bat species, increased reliance on acoustic monitoring is now the new “normal.” As such, the ability to accurately identify individual bat species with acoustic identification programs has become increasingly important. We assessed rates of disagreement between the three U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service–approved acoustic identification software programs (Kaleidoscope Pro 4.2.0, Echoclass 3.1, and Bat Call Identification 2.7d) and manual visual identification using acoustic data collected during summers from 2003 to 2017 at Fort Drum, New York. We assessed the percentage of agreement between programs through pairwise comparisons on a total nightly count level, individual file level (e.g., individual echolocation pass call file), and grouped maximum likelihood estimate level (e.g., probability values that a species is misclassified as present when in fact it is absent) using preplanned contrasts, Akaike Information Criterion, and annual confusion matrices. Interprogram agreement on an individual file level was low, as measured by Cohen's Kappa (0.2–0.6). However, site-night level pairwise comparative analysis indicated that program agreement was higher (40–90%) using single season occupancy metrics. In comparing analytical outcomes of our different datasets (i.e., how comparable programs and visual identification are regarding the relationship between environmental conditions and bat activity), we determined high levels of congruency in the relative rankings of the model as well as the relative level of support for each individual model. This indicated that among individual software packages, when analyzing bat calls, there was consistent ecological inference beyond the file-by-file level at the scales used by managers. Depending on objectives, we believe our results can help users choose automated software and maximum likelihood estimate thresholds more appropriate for their needs and allow for better cross-comparison of studies using different automated acoustic software.
Fall Age-Ratio Survey Design for Eastern Population Greater Sandhill Cranes
Authors: Fronczak David L. , Rigby Elizabeth A. 
Published: July 2019

AbstractFor migratory birds, wildlife managers can use the recruitment rate of young into an adult population to model population dynamics, manage harvest, or evaluate habitat. Few recruitment estimates exist for Eastern Population greater sandhill cranes Antigone canadensis tabida, and estimates are outdated and local in scale. Wildlife managers can use age ratios as an index to recruitment, and surveying at fall staging areas is efficient and cost effective. We created a systematic survey design for surveying eastern population crane age ratios in the Kankakee River valley (2013–2015) in northwestern Indiana and the south-central counties of Michigan (2014–2015). Using logistic regression, we investigated factors that may cause spatial and temporal variation in age ratios, including flock size, timing within season, state, year, random vs. incidental survey routes, and observer. We stratified our selection of survey routes using a core area of high crane abundance, but do not recommend stratifying due to the added complexity and low utility. Observers determined the age of 53,371 cranes and found that the proportion of juveniles in Eastern Population crane flocks (π = 0.113, 95% CI: 0.105 – 0.122) was similar to previous estimates for the population. Proportion of juveniles was greater for south-central Michigan than for the Kankakee River valley, decreased with flock size, increased with lateness in the season, and varied among observers. Our design accounted for both ecological sources of variation in age ratios as well as nuisance variation. We recommend that future surveys use our design as part of a monitoring plan for Eastern Population cranes to support harvest management of the population and ensure that future survey results are comparable across years.
Population Characteristics and the Potential Suppression of Common Carp in Lake Spokane, Washington

Published: July 2019

Abstract
Common Carp Cyprinus carpio is a nonnative species that often has deleterious effects on aquatic systems. As such, there is interest in suppressing nonnative Common Carp populations in areas where humans have introduced them. The objectives of this study were to 1) provide insight on efficient techniques for capturing Common Carp, 2) describe their population demographics and dynamics, 3) evaluate whether temperature and water elevation were related to growth and recruitment, and 4) develop an age-structured population model for evaluating different management scenarios of Common Carp removal in Lake Spokane, Washington. Catch rates of Common Carp varied among sampling gears with slightly higher catch rates in monofilament (mean ± SD; 15.5 ± 9.8 fish/net night) vs. multifilament (12.7 ± 7.3 fish/net night) gill nets. Catch rates of Common Carp with nighttime electrofishing (0.3 ± 0.4 fish/min) were higher than daytime electrofishing (0.1 ± 0.2 fish/min). Common Carp in Lake Spokane exhibited variable recruitment, rapid growth, large-length structure, high longevity (i.e., age 18 y), and low total annual mortality (17.0%). Air temperature was positively associated with annual growth increments (R2 ≤ 0.25). Neither air temperature nor water elevation was highly correlated (R2 ≤ 0.20) to recruitment of Common Carp. A Beverton–Holt yield-per-recruit model suggested that yield declined with increasing exploitation. Recruitment overfishing would occur at exploitation rates of 20–40% for all targeted minimum length categories (i.e., 150, 300, 450 mm) except 600 mm. Results from this study provide important information on the ecology of Common Carp that can be used to guide management efforts (e.g., suppression) in western systems.
Lazar Zamenhof (1859-1917). Du sionisme au hillélisme et de l'hébreu à l'espéranto
Authors: Lavarenne Christian 
Published: July 2019

Pour Zamenhof (1859-1917) la « solution de la question juive » et de l'exil passait d'abord par le recours à une langue neutre – par défaut l'espéranto, après l'idée de l'hébreu, jugé trop difficile pour devenir une langue largement parlée et maternelle (puis du yiddish) – et par un pont neutre entre les religions (voire une « religion neutre », sorte d'éthique commune laissant coexister les religions de chacun) afin de créer aussi une implantation non plus uniquement juive mais neutre et tolérante, prémices du peuple nouveau qu'allait créer la nouvelle langue. La « solution » tiendra finalement à l'amour inconditionnel, non seulement en paroles mais en actes, envers chaque homme du seul fait que celui-ci est un être humain et donc un frère, définition de son « homaranismo », ultime stade, dégagé de toute connotation juive, de son Hillélisme (du nom de Hillel l'Ancien, contemporain de Jésus) : une fois tous les gens qui nous entourent devenus pour nous sans exception nos frères et sœurs, il n'y a plus d'étrangers et encore moins d'ennemis mais une immense famille humaine ; et lorsqu'on se trouve en famille partout sur la terre, il n'y a donc plus, nulle part, d'exil. Contrairement à sa langue, sa pensée, que ses détracteurs ont appelée son « rêve mystico-social » et ont combattu comme mettant en danger la neutralité de l'espéranto, n'a pas abouti à une réalisation concrète.
Genetic Variation in Surfactant Protein-A2 Delays Resolution of Eosinophilia in Asthma

Published: July 2019

Abstract
Surfactant protein-A (SP-A) is an important mediator of pulmonary immunity. A specific genetic variation in SP-A2, corresponding to a glutamine (Q) to lysine (K) amino acid substitution at position 223 of the lectin domain, was shown to alter the ability of SP-A to inhibit eosinophil degranulation. Because a large subgroup of asthmatics have associated eosinophilia, often accompanied by inflammation associated with delayed clearance, our goal was to define how SP-A mediates eosinophil resolution in allergic airways and whether genetic variation affects this activity. Wild-type, SP-A knockout (SP-A KO) and humanized (SP-A2 223Q/Q, SP-A2 223K/K) C57BL/6 mice were challenged in an allergic OVA model, and parameters of inflammation were examined. Peripheral blood eosinophils were isolated to assess the effect of SP-A genetic variation on apoptosis and chemotaxis. Five days postchallenge, SP-A KO and humanized SP-A2 223K/K mice had persistent eosinophilia in bronchoalveolar lavage fluid compared with wild-type and SP-A2 223Q/Q mice, suggesting an impairment in eosinophil resolution. In vitro, human SP-A containing either the 223Q or the 223K allele was chemoattractant for eosinophils whereas only 223Q resulted in decreased eosinophil viability. Our results suggest that SP-A aids in the resolution of allergic airway inflammation by promoting eosinophil clearance from lung tissue through chemotaxis, independent of SP-A2 Q223K, and by inducing apoptosis of eosinophils, which is altered by the polymorphism.

Published: July 2019

Orientation: In the contemporary global business environment, online trading is a new distribution channel and trading platforms are products of investment and financial services companies.Research purpose: This study determined the influence of perceived risk elements on investor trust and the intention to invest in online trading platforms among students at a selected university in South Africa.Motivation for the study: The significance of how perceived risk elements may influence an investor’s trust and the intention to invest in online trading has largely been overlooked in previous research. Therefore, the principal objective of this study was to address this research gap.Research approach, design and method: A structural equation modelling (SEM) procedure was applied to perform the hypotheses testing using the AMOS (version 25.0) package.Main findings: All the perceived risk elements had a positive and a significant impact on investor trust as well as the intention to invest in online trading platforms.Practical/managerial implications: This study provides fruitful implications to practitioners. The collective knowledge on dimensions of perceived risk will be advantageous to managers in understanding consumer risk perception and how students attempt to reduce these risks. Hence, this will also help managers to implement risk-reduction strategies in order to increase the prospect of students investing in their online trading platforms.Contribution/value-add: This study stands to add new knowledge to the present body of investment management and financial management literature in Africa – a context that has not received much research attention in developing countries.
Costs incurred by caregivers of under-five inpatients with community-acquired pneumonia at a university hospital in south-western Ethiopia

Published: July 2019

Background: Pneumonia is one of the commonest diseases among children in Ethiopia resulting in deaths and hospitalisations. The objective of the current study was to determine the cost incurred by caregivers of under-five children with community-acquired pneumonia admitted to the paediatric ward of Jimma University Specialized Hospital, south-western Ethiopia.Methods: An institution-based cross-sectional study was conducted from 01 January to 28 February 2017, through interviews with caregivers. Data on costs incurred before hospital visit, direct medical and non-medical costs, and indirect costs incurred by caregivers of the children were collected. The collected data were analysed using Statistical Package for Social Sciences version 23.Results: Among the 120 caregivers in the study, a median total cost of 304.5 Ethiopian birr (13.22 USD) was reported. This was mostly contributed by indirect costs associated with earnings lost by caregivers related to travel and stay at hospital with the children. Factors, including permanent residence, family size, hospital stay, wealth index, education and major occupation, were found to have statistically significant association with the level of cost incurred by caregivers.Conclusion: This study identified that a significant level of cost is incurred by caregivers of the children in the hospital, a majority of which was contributed by the lost earnings because of the time spent at the hospital with the children.
Narrowing the Gap: An Implementation Science Research Agenda for the Occupational Therapy Profession
Authors: Juckett Lisa A. , Robinson Monica L. , Wengerd Lauren R. 
Published: July 2019

Abstract
Despite advancements in occupational therapy research, the widespread research-to-practice gap continues to delay how quickly evidence-based practices are implemented in real-world clinical settings. Implementing research in practice is a complex process that mandates attention from all occupational therapy stakeholders; however, researchers are uniquely positioned to help minimize the 17-yr lag between scientific discovery and the implementation of research findings into practice. Our article serves as a response to Marr’s (2017) Centennial Topics article, which proposed that purposeful efforts are needed to advocate for implementation research in occupational therapy. We provide an implementation science research agenda informed by concepts from the implementation science literature and suggest how researchers can structure methodologies to examine implementation-related outcomes and strategies. We provide explanations of gold-standard implementation outcomes and offer several recommendations for how researchers can report and disseminate implementation research findings to occupational therapy stakeholders.
Modern American Drama: Playwriting in the 1950s
Authors: Abbotson Susan C. W. 
Published: July 2019

The Decades of Modern American Drama series provides a comprehensive survey and study of the theatre produced in each decade from the 1930s to 2009 in eight volumes. Each volume equips readers with a detailed understanding of the context from which work emerged: an introduction considers life in the decade with a focus on domestic life and conditions, social changes, culture, media, technology, industry and political events; while a chapter on the theatre of the decade offers a wide-ranging and thorough survey of theatres, companies, dramatists, new movements and developments in response to the economic and political conditions of the day. The work of the four most prominent playwrights from the decade receives in-depth analysis and re-evaluation by a team of experts, together with commentary on their subsequent work and legacy. A final section brings together original documents such as interviews with the playwrights and with directors, drafts of play scenes, and other previously unpublished material.
The major writers and their works to receive in-depth coverage in this volume include:William Inge: Picnic (1953), Bus Stop (1955) and The Dark at the Top of the Stairs (1957);Stephen Sondheim, Arthur Laurents and Jerome Robbins: West Side Story (1957) and Gypsy (1959);Alice Childress: Just a Little Simple (1950), Gold Through the Trees (1952) and Trouble in Mind (1955);Jerome Lawrence and Robert Lee: Inherit the Wind (1955), Auntie Mame (1956) and The Gang’s All Here (1959).
Fashion Installation
Authors: Geczy Adam , Karaminas Vicki 
Published: July 2019

Gone are the days when fashion relied on a runway launch with coinciding press promotions to show a couturier’s new range. Today, design houses are thinking beyond traditional methods of display to stimulate interest in their collections, such as to the internet, fashion film and, more recently, fashion installations. This book offers a critical evaluation of the changing ways in which fashion has been exhibited, focusing specifically on the recent turn toward installation, whether in the form of static presentations, interactive performances or the more conventional curated designer exhibition.
Connecting viewers – and consumers – on an immersive level, the fashion world has begun to appropriate installation methods traditionally associated with displays of experimental art, transcending the runway system and its constraints. This book turns to the designers who have pioneered fashion installations, such as Aitor Throup, Muccia Prada, Walter Van Beirendonck and Hussein Chalayan among others, and also looks back to the early influential fashion displays by designers such as Worth and Poiret to provide historical context.
Divided into three parts, and covering a variety of installations from Vivienne Westwood’s fashioned ‘concept’ stores to Gareth Pugh’s immersive films, this ground-breaking book positions the designer as the curator and exhibition-maker and offers the first focused study of the pertinent concept of fashion installation.
The Polish Theatre of the Holocaust
Authors: Niziołek Grzegorz 
Published: July 2019

Grzegorz Niziolek’s The Polish Theatre of the Holocaust is a pioneering analysis of the impact and legacy of the Holocaust on Polish theatre and society from 1945 to the present. It reveals the role of theatre as a crucial medium of collective memory – and collective forgetting – of the trauma of the Holocaust carried out on Polish land. The period gave rise to two of the most radical and influential theatrical ideas during work on productions that addressed the subject of the Holocaust – Grotowski’s Poor Theatre and Kantor’s Theatre of Death, but the author examines a deeper impact in the role that theatre played in the processes of collective disavowal to being a witness to others’ suffering.
In the first part, the author examines six decades of Polish theatre shaped by the perspective of the Holocaust in which its presence is variously visible, or displaced. The author pays particular attention to the various types of distortion and the effect of ‘wrong seeing’ enacted in the theatre, as well as the traces of affective reception: shock, heightened empathy, indifference. In the second part the author examines a range theatrical events, including productions by Leon Schiller, Jerzy Grotowski, Tadeusz Kantor, Andrzej Wajda, Krzysztof Warlikowski and Ondrej Spišák. He considers how these productions confronted the experience of bearing witness and were profoundly shaped by the legacy of the Holocaust.
The Polish Theatre of the Holocaust reveals how by testifying about society’s experience of the Holocaust theatre has been the setting for fundamental processes taking place within Polish culture as it confronts suppressed traumatic wartime experiences and a collective identity shaped by the past.
Ceramics and the Museum
Authors: Breen Laura 
Published: July 2019

Ceramics and the Museum interrogates the relationship between art-oriented ceramic practice and museum practice in Britain since 1970.
Laura Breen examines the identity of ceramics as an art form, drawing on examples of work by artist-makers such as Edmund de Waal and Grayson Perry; addresses the impact of policy making on ceramic practice; traces the shift from object to project in ceramic practice and in the evolution of ceramic sculpture; explores how museums facilitated multisensory engagement with ceramic material and process, and analyses the exhibition as a text in itself.
Proposing the notion that ‘gestures of showing,’ such as exhibitions and installation art, can be read as statements, she examines what they tell us about the identity of ceramics at particular moments in time. Highlighting the ways in which these gestures have constructed ceramics as a category of artistic practice, Breen argues that they reveal gaps between narrative and practice, which in turn can be used to deconstruct the art.
Nomadic Theatre
Authors: Nibbelink Liesbeth Groot 
Published: July 2019

Fluid stages, morphing theatre spaces, ambulant spectators, and occasionally disappearing performers: these are some of the key ingredients of Nomadic Theatre. They are also theatre’s response to life in the 21st century, which is increasingly marked by the mobility of people, information, technologies and services. While examining how contemporary theatre exposes and queries this ‘mobile turn’ in society, Liesbeth Groot Nibbelink introduces the concept of ‘nomadic theatre’ as a vital tool for analyzing the manifold ways in which movement and mobility effect and implicate the theatre, how physical movements in the theatre are stepping stones for theorizing mobility at large, and how contemporary performance uses movement and mobility to make way for local operations and lived spaces.
This book examines how ambulatory performances and performative installations stage movement and in turn mobilize the stage. Through a detailed analysis of contemporary performance practices by leading European artists such as Rimini Protokoll, Dries Verhoeven, Ontroerend Goed, and Signa, Nomadic Theatre demonstrates how mobile performances radically rethink the conditions of the stage and alter our understanding of spectatorship.
Nomadic Theatre takes an integrated approach to theory and practice, instigates connections across disciplinary fields, and feeds dramaturgical analysis with insights derived from media theory, urban philosophy, cartography, architecture, and game studies. It demonstrates how concepts assist in the performance of analysis and how contemporary theatre, as a material form of thought, creatively and critically engages with mobile existence both on the stage and in society.
Shakespeare in the Theatre: Peter Hall
Authors: Hampton-Reeves Stuart 
Published: July 2019

Peter Hall (1930–2017) is one of the most influential directors of Shakespeare’s plays in the modern age. Under his direction, the Royal Shakespeare Company and the National Theatre rediscovered Shakespeare as a writer who could comment incisively on the modern world. Productions such as Coriolanus, The Wars of the Roses and Hamlet established his reputation as a director able to bring Shakespeare to the heart of contemporary politics. He later cemented his reputation with epic productions of Coriolanus and Antony and Cleopatra at the National. With the Peter Hall Company, Hall continued to work intensively on Shakespeare, directing plays in the UK and America.
Reviewing Hall’s work in its cultural and creative context, this study explores his approach to directing and rehearsal. This is the first book to analyse all of Hall’s professional Shakespeare productions in a historical context, from the Suez crisis to the 9/11 attacks and beyond.
