A Kaddish for the Father: Régine Robin and the “impossible work of mourning”
Authors: Kellett Kathleen 
Published: August 2016

ABSTRACT
This essay examines the father-daughter relationship and the dynamics of mourning in the biofiction of Quebec author Régine Robin, born Rivka Ajzersztejn in 1939 in Paris. Focusing on her first work of biofiction, Le Cheval blanc de Lénine (1979), as well as the short text “Manhattan Bistro” (1992), I argue that Robin presents the daughter’s tale as both an act of defiance against paternal authority and her Communist father’s veneration of the great men of history—incarnate in the vision of Vladimir Lenin on a white horse—and homage to her father’s role as inventive and passionate chronicler of family history. The daughter recounts her father’s struggle with the refusal to say the Kaddish for his own father, an impossible act of mourning mirrored by the Kaddish that could not be recited for the fifty-one members of her family lost in the Holocaust. Robin’s biofiction is an unceasing iteration of the grieving process, an examination of the vagaries of memory and history, and the arbitrary accidents in time that led to deportation to the Nazi death camps for some and survival and a future life in North America and elsewhere for others.
The Geography of Memory: Haunting and Haunted Landscapes in Contemporary Canadian Jewish Writing
Authors: Horowitz Sara R. 
Published: August 2016

ABSTRACT
The refrain “Every moment is two moments” in Anne Michaels’s 1997 novel Fugitive Pieces, an exploration of traumatized memory and post-memory, could serve as a leitmotif pointing to the complexity of memory and witnessing in contemporary Jewish Canadian fiction. In the memory novels of Michaels, Fugitive Pieces and The Winter Vault (2009), and of Nancy Richler, Your Mouth Is Lovely (2001) and The Imposter Bride (2012), every moment is not so much two but multiple moments. These works unravel, reconstruct, and unravel again relationships among space, time, memory, and identity. The vexed and elusive nature of memory and its effects is concretized in disappeared or fragmented landscapes that haunt the characters: bogs and buried geographic features in Fugitive Pieces, cities emptied and flooded by the creation of dams in The Winter Vault, marshes and icescapes in Your Mouth Is Lovely, and bits of rock in The Imposter Bride. This essay explores the shifting chronotopes of memory through the depiction of haunted and haunting landscapes, and the overlay of memoryscapes with contemporary Canadian cityscapes.
“Sparks that reach far into the past and spin toward the future”: The Historical Turn in Recent Novels by Susan Glickman, Nancy Richler, and Rhea Tregebov
Authors: Panofsky Ruth 
Published: August 2016

ABSTRACT
Susan Glickman’s The Tale-Teller (2012), Nancy Richler’s Your Mouth Is Lovely (2002), and Rhea Tregebov’s The Knife Sharpener’s Bell (2009) are as invested in Canada as in the historical and cultural past. In each novel, to counterpoint the oppression, imprisonment, and extreme hardship of the Old World, Canada serves literally as a safe haven and figuratively as a harbor of freedom. This essay shows how Glickman, Richler, and Tregebov respectively deploy catalyzing historical events in an effort to amplify their understanding of the cultural past and the Canadian present. The cultural contingencies of present-day Canadian life have given rise to a transnational probing of profound historical complexities, which may be apprehended—though never resolved—through narrative exploration of Jewish identity.
The Sound of “New Jews”: David Rakoff and Jonathan Goldstein
Authors: Lambert Josh 
Published: August 2016

ABSTRACT
This essay reads the “soundwork”—radio and podcast writing and performance—of two Canadian Jews, David Rakoff and Jonathan Goldstein, as exemplary cases of the representational patterns scholars attending to American popular culture since the 1990s have recently begun to analyze under the rubric of “New Jews.” Focusing particularly on work that has been broadcast on the popular radio shows/podcasts This American Life (1995–) and WireTap with Jonathan Goldstein (2004–15), this essay surveys the representational strategies through which these performers invoke Jewishness and Canadianness over hundreds of hours of scripted and improvised audio performances. I argue that the remarkable taken-for-granted approach to representation in Rakoff’s and Goldstein’s work is due, at least in part, to the positioning of Jews and Canadians as potentially overlooked minorities in the late-twentieth- and early twenty-first-century United States.
La mémoire des méga-événements comme instrument de la planification urbaine ?
Authors: Ballester Patrice 
Published: August 2016

À partir d’une géographie de la mémoire, j’aborde les stratégies de planification urbaine en relation avec l’organisation, la tenue et le bilan des méga-événements. Leur souvenir, remémoration et manipulation par les élites locales rentrent dans une politique urbaine sur le long terme pour justifier parfois des choix hasardeux ou judicieux. J’aboutis à trois résultats corollaires de la forme, du fond et de la fonction des méga-événements à partir d’une recherche archivistique, d’une enquête de terrain sur les sites olympiques à Barcelone et d’une revue de littérature renouvelée sur le sujet : une complémentarité entre les Jeux olympiques et les Expositions universelles s’observe avec l’importance du palimpseste urbain fonctionnant comme un système intégrateur, une mémoire collective des méga-événements reste prégnante grâce au tourisme de masse et de niche, les qualités de l’éphémère de la manifestation se font ressentir dans la production matérielle et immatérielle forgeant une mémoire collective.
Dix stades français pour l’Euro-foot 2016
Authors: Augustin Jean-Pierre , Nicolle Vincent 
Published: August 2016

Les stades sont devenus les cathédrales profanes du 21e siècle, mais leur édification ne se limite pas au plan architectural et s’inscrit de plus en plus dans des projets urbains et touristiques qui participent à la rénovation de quartiers tout en dotant la ville d’une nouvelle identité. Les méga-événements comme l’Euro-foot 2016 organisé en France par l’UEFA (Union of European Football Associations) sont, au-delà des constructions ou rénovations de stades, des occasions particulièrement efficaces d’accélérer les mutations urbaines. La problématique de ce travail se focalise sur l’analyse d’événements qui sont à la fois un prétexte à la recomposition de quartiers, à l’aménagement du territoire et à l’affirmation de l’image attractive et touristique des villes engagées dans une course à la distinction. L’Euro-foot 2016 est l’occasion de souligner que les équipements nécessaires aux méga-événements sportifs sont les lieux emblématiques des grands rassemblements, un symbole des dynamiques métropolitaines et un enjeu d’attraction et de développement touristique.
L’informalité et la sélectivité stratégique de l’État : la montée de l’emploi précaire dans l’industrie de la construction aux États-Unis
Authors: Theodore Nik , Rondeau Joëlle 
Published: August 2016

L’informalité économique est généralement définie comme l’absence d’action étatique à cause de déficits institutionnels dans la capacité de l’État à réguler les activités économiques sur son territoire. Il existe un certain consensus sur l’importance de comprendre le rôle de l’État dans la suppression ou la croissance de l’informalité, afin de mieux expliquer l’étendue, la nature et l’évolution de l’économie informelle. Ce texte discute du rôle de l’État dans le double processus de désyndicalisation et d’informalisation dans le secteur de la construction résidentielle. L’un des effets prévisibles de ce double processus est la diminution des conditions de travail. Le travail précaire est de plus en plus important et les travailleurs immigrants (plusieurs sans statut légal dans le pays) sont devenus des « travailleurs de choix » pour les contracteurs qui se font la concurrence sur la base d’une diminution des coûts et la sueur des ouvriers.
Un projet « pour les Roms » ? Bricolages, malentendus et informalité productive dans des dispositifs d’insertion et de relogement
Authors: Olivera Martin 
Published: August 2016

À partir d’une double recherche de terrain menée en Seine-Saint-Denis (ethnographies des migrants roms de Roumanie et des actions publiques ciblées mises en oeuvre à leur attention), cet article propose une réflexion sur les formes et conditions de la « réussite » des dispositifs d’accompagnement social et de relogement (« projets d’insertion »). Le suivi de tels projets montre que l’ensemble des acteurs en présence « bricole » afin de garder le cap dans un contexte mouvant et incertain, celui de la ville en train de se faire, pour y conserver (ou y prendre) sa place. Au-delà des migrants roms, cette réflexion souhaite contribuer aux débats sur la valeur de l’informalité et du malentendu dans les dynamiques d’intégration sociale.
Analysis of genotype diversity and evolution of Dengue virus serotype 2 using complete genomes

Published: August 2016

BackgroundDengue is one of the most common arboviral diseases prevalent worldwide and is caused by Dengue viruses (genusFlavivirus,familyFlaviviridae). There are four serotypes of Dengue Virus (DENV-1 to DENV-4), each of which is further subdivided into distinct genotypes. DENV-2 is frequently associated with severe dengue infections and epidemics. DENV-2 consists of six genotypes such as Asian/American, Asian I, Asian II, Cosmopolitan, American and sylvatic. Comparative genomic study was carried out to infer population structure of DENV-2 and to analyze the role of evolutionary and spatiotemporal factors in emergence of diversifying lineages.MethodsComplete genome sequences of 990 strains of DENV-2 were analyzed using Bayesian-based population genetics and phylogenetic approaches to infer genetically distinct lineages. The role of spatiotemporal factors, genetic recombination and selection pressure in the evolution of DENV-2 is examined using the sequence-based bioinformatics approaches.ResultsDENV-2 genetic structure is complex and consists of fifteen subpopulations/lineages. The Asian/American genotype is observed to be diversified into seven lineages. The Asian I, Cosmopolitan and sylvatic genotypes were found to be subdivided into two lineages, each. The populations of American and Asian II genotypes were observed to be homogeneous. Significant evidence of episodic positive selection was observed in all the genes, except NS4A. Positive selection operational on a few codons in envelope gene confers antigenic and lineage diversity in the American strains of Asian/American genotype. Selection on codons of non-structural genes was observed to impact diversification of lineages in Asian I, cosmopolitan and sylvatic genotypes. Evidence of intra/inter-genotype recombination was obtained and the uncertainty in classification of recombinant strains was resolved using the population genetics approach.DiscussionComplete genome-based analysis revealed that the worldwide population of DENV-2 strains is subdivided into fifteen lineages. The population structure of DENV-2 is spatiotemporal and is shaped by episodic positive selection and recombination. Intra-genotype diversity was observed in four genotypes (Asian/American, Asian I, cosmopolitan and sylvatic). Episodic positive selection on envelope and non-structural genes translates into antigenic diversity and appears to be responsible for emergence of strains/lineages in DENV-2 genotypes. Understanding of the genotype diversity and emerging lineages will be useful to design strategies for epidemiological surveillance and vaccine design.
Tree phyllosphere bacterial communities: exploring the magnitude of intra- and inter-individual variation among host species
Authors: Laforest-Lapointe Isabelle , Messier Christian , Kembel Steven W. 
Published: August 2016

BackgroundThe diversity and composition of the microbial community of tree leaves (the phyllosphere) varies among trees and host species and along spatial, temporal, and environmental gradients. Phyllosphere community variation within the canopy of an individual tree exists but the importance of this variation relative to among-tree and among-species variation is poorly understood. Sampling techniques employed for phyllosphere studies include picking leaves from one canopy location to mixing randomly selected leaves from throughout the canopy. In this context, our goal was to characterize the relative importance of intra-individual variation in phyllosphere communities across multiple species, and compare this variation to inter-individual and interspecific variation of phyllosphere epiphytic bacterial communities in a natural temperate forest in Quebec, Canada.MethodsWe targeted five dominant temperate forest tree species including angiosperms and gymnosperms:Acer saccharum,Acer rubrum,Betula papyrifera,Abies balsameaandPicea glauca. For one randomly selected tree of each species, we sampled microbial communities at six distinct canopy locations: bottom-canopy (1–2 m height), the four cardinal points of mid-canopy (2–4 m height), and the top-canopy (4–6 m height). We also collected bottom-canopy leaves from five additional trees from each species.ResultsBased on an analysis of bacterial community structure measured via Illumina sequencing of the bacterial 16S gene, we demonstrate that 65% of the intra-individual variation in leaf bacterial community structure could be attributed to the effect of inter-individual and inter-specific differences while the effect of canopy location was not significant. In comparison, host species identity explains 47% of inter-individual and inter-specific variation in leaf bacterial community structure followed by individual identity (32%) and canopy location (6%).DiscussionOur results suggest that individual samples from consistent positions within the tree canopy from multiple individuals per species can be used to accurately quantify variation in phyllosphere bacterial community structure. However, the considerable amount of intra-individual variation within a tree canopy ask for a better understanding of how changes in leaf characteristics and local abiotic conditions drive spatial variation in the phyllosphere microbiome.
The incidence rates of endometrial hyperplasia and endometrial cancer: a four-year population-based study
Authors: Yuk Jin-Sung 
Published: August 2016

IntroductionThe aim of this study was to determine the incidence rates of endometrial hyperplasia (EH) and endometrial cancer (EC) in the Republic of Korea using national insurance claim data generated from 2009 to 2012.Materials and MethodsData that were generated from 2009 to 2012 were sourced from the Korean Health Insurance Review and Assessment Service-National Inpatients Sample database. The data from women who were assigned diagnosis codes representing EH or EC within 1 month of being assigned codes that corresponded to procedures that included endometrial biopsies and several types of gynecologic surgeries to obtain endometrial pathology samples, were selected for analysis.ResultsData from 2,477,424 women were entered into the database between 2009 and 2012, and the data from 1,868 women with EH and 868 women with EC were extracted for analysis. The mean ages of the patients were 44.1 ± 0.4 years for those with EH and 52.7 ± 0.6 years for those with EC. The EH and EC incidence rates were 37 per 100,000 woman-years and 8 per 100,000 woman-years, respectively. The EH and EC incidence rates peaked when the women were in their late forties and fifties, respectively.ConclusionsThe EH and EC incidence rates determined in this study were somewhat lower than those determined from previous studies. Further studies are required that adjust the data for race, menopausal hormone therapy, and obesity.
Rapid reinflation following the 2011–2012 rhyodacite eruption at Cordón Caulle volcano (Southern Andes) imaged by InSAR: Evidence for magma reservoir refill

Published: August 2016

AbstractCordón Caulle is a large fissural volcano that has erupted rhyodacitic magma of the same composition in its past three historical eruptions in 1921, 1960, and 2011–2012. There was significant ground deformation observed before and during the 2011–2012 eruption—here we use C and X band interferometric synthetic aperture radar (InSAR) time series results to document posteruptive uplift up to 0.8 m between March 2012 and May 2015, with line‐of‐sight rates up to 45 cm/yr that have been largely aseismic, along with subsidence in the 2011–2012 lava flow. The 2012 uplift rate is one of the largest for silicic systems and was likely produced by the intrusion of ~0.125 km3 of magma in the same tectonically controlled plumbing system that has been active during the historical eruptions. Nevertheless, the uplift ended before the reservoir refilled with the erupted volume, maybe due to a change in the pressure gradient produced by the 2011–2012 eruption.

AbstractThe magnetotail magnetic flux (MTF) is an important global variable to describe the magnetospheric state and dynamics. Existing methods of MTF estimation on the basis of the polar cap area, inferred from observations of global auroras and field‐aligned currents, do not allow benchmarking due to the absence of a gauge for comparison; besides, they rarely allow a systematic nearly real time MTF monitoring. We describe three modifications (F0, F1, and F2) of the method to calculate the MTF, based on simultaneous spacecraft observations in the magnetotail and in the solar wind, suitable for real‐time MTF monitoring. The MTF dependence on the solar wind parameters and the observed tail lobe magnetic field is derived from the pressure balance conditions. An essential part of this study is the calibration of our approximate method against global 3‐D MHD simulations and the empirical T14 magnetospheric field model. The calibration procedure provides all variables required to evaluate F0, F1, and F2 quantities and, at the same time, computes the reference MTF value through any tail cross section. It allowed us to extend the method to be used in the near tail, investigate its errors, and define the applicability domain. The method was applied to Cluster and THEMIS measurements and compared with methods of polar cap area calculation based on IMAGE and AMPERE observations. We also discuss possible applications and some recent results based on the proposed method.
Distribution Management System (
DMS
) Integrated Voltage‐
VAR
Control
Authors: Kwon Seongchul 
Published: August 2016

Abstract
In pursue of low carbon society, distributed generators, including renewable energy resources such as solar photovoltaic, wind turbine, and battery energy systems, have been interconnected to distribution networks dramatically in recent years. In spite of lots of advantages of distributed generators, they also cause the voltage and protection coordination problem in distribution network. To solve voltage problem in distribution network, many research and demonstration projects have been conducted in decades. In this chapter, DMS (distribution management system) integrated VVC (voltage‐VAR control) is summarized. Voltage variation problems in the distribution networks due to distributed generators are introduced and voltage control devices used in distribution network are reviewed. Later, two VVC methods to solve the voltage problems in distribution network using voltage control devices are described. One is the decentralized approach using local controller for DG (distributed generator) or SVR (step voltage regulator), which control locally the voltage in the active way with additional information measurement. The other is VVO (voltage‐VAR optimization) application, which resides and executes in real time in the DMS, optimizes the voltage profiles in distribution network to solve the violation, and reduces the loss using control resources including OLTC (on‐load tap changer), SVR, and distributed generators.
Online Monitoring of Dynamics withPMUData
Authors: Chow Joe H. 
Published: August 2016

AbstractPower system frequency, voltage, and current measurements, obtained from phasor measurement units (PMUs), provide several important capabilities beyond the traditional 4‐s substation data used in the energy management systems of control centers. These properties include precise time tagging of the measured data using GPS (global positioning system) signals, high sampling rate at 30/50/60 samples per second, and the phase as well as the magnitude of the voltage and current phasors. Thus, the PMU data can be used to monitor power system dynamics, such as the impact of a disturbance as it spreads to other regions, and oscillations during disturbances and under ambient condition. This chapter reviews the PMU data application tools that have been installed at control centers or are under development.

ObjectiveNoninvasive brain stimulation in primary progressive aphasia (PPA) is a promising approach. Yet, applied to single cases or insufficiently controlled small‐cohort studies, it has not clarified its therapeutic value. We here address the effectiveness of transcranial direct current stimulation (tDCS) on the semantic PPA variant (sv‐PPA), applying a rigorous study design to a large, homogeneous sv‐PPA cohort.MethodsUsing a double‐blind, sham‐controlled counterbalanced cross‐over design, we applied three tDCS conditions targeting the temporal poles of 12 sv‐PPA patients. Efficiency was assessed by a semantic matching task orthogonally manipulating “living”/”nonliving” categories and verbal/visual modalities. Conforming to predominantly left‐lateralized damage in sv‐PPA and accounts of interhemispheric inhibition, we applied left hemisphere anodal‐excitatory and right hemisphere cathodal‐inhibitory tDCS, compared to sham stimulation.ResultsPrestimulation data, compared to 15 healthy controls, showed that patients had semantic disorders predominating with living categories in the verbal modality. Stimulation selectively impacted these most impaired domains: Left‐excitatory and right‐inhibitory tDCS improved semantic accuracy in verbal modality, and right‐inhibitory tDCS improved processing speed with living categories and accuracy and processing speed in the combined verbal × living condition.InterpretationOur findings demonstrate the efficiency of tDCS in sv‐PPA by generating highly specific intrasemantic effects. They provide “proof of concept” for future applications of tDCS in therapeutic multiday regimes, potentially driving sustained improvement of semantic processing. Our data also support the hotly debated existence of a left temporal‐pole network for verbal semantics selectively modulated through both left‐excitatory and right‐inhibitory brain stimulation.
