Random bisexual forests: Intersections between gender, sexuality, and race in /s/ production
Authors: Willis Chloe , Ben Youssef Chadi 
Published: April 2023

The ideology of “the gay lisp” has inspired numerous quantitative studies examining the relationship between /s/ production and sexuality in American English (e.g. Linville 1998; Munson et al. 2006a; Zimman 2013). There are two key gaps in this literature. First, research in this area typically focuses on monosexual (i.e. lesbian, gay, and straight) speakers to the exclusion of bisexuality. Second, work in this area rarely considers the intersection of sexuality with factors outside of gender or sex, and to a lesser extent geographic location (e.g. Campbell-Kibler 2011; Podesva & Hofwegen 2014). This article addresses these disparities by (1) centralizing bisexual speakers and (2) attending to social factors such as race, place, age, and their intersections in the analysis. To that end, we build upon previous work by Willis (forthcoming) and apply a random forest (Breiman 2001) to /s/ center of gravity measurements. In doing so, we follow Tagliamonte and Baayen (2012) in demonstrating the utility of random forests as an approach to quantitative sociolinguistic analysis. Ultimately, the analysis underscores the need to attend to power structures and biases within research practice: the monosexist ideologies of sexuality and gender normativity that obfuscate bisexuality, and the privileging of whiteness that permeates quantitative studies of sexuality and the voice.

The study aims to provide viable criteria to assess land suitability for apple growing in Kashmir Valley, India. It used a Delphi survey and the analytical hierarchical process (AHP) approach to determine factors influencing apple production. The evaluation criteria were obtained through multiple rounds of the Delphi survey of stakeholders. The Delphi outcome was extended to enable prioritization of the criteria, using a pair-wise comparison process. Results show that experts value physical and economic considerations (accounting for 87% of the overall weight) more than social factors. Furthermore, location-specific factors (i.e., cost-benefit ratio and landholding size) have significant bearings on land suitability for apple in the study area. The Delphi-AHP method proved to be useful as it incorporated core issues of agricultural land use by creating a common framework for suitability evaluation and eliminated uncertainties in the decision-making process.

Knowledge Discovery In Database (KDD) merupakan sebuah proses merubah data mentah menjadi data yang bermanfaat berbentuk informasi. Data mining adalah suatu teknik menggali informasi berharga yang terpendam atau tersembunyi pada suatu koleksi data (database) yang sangat besar sehingga ditemukan suatu pola yang menarik yang sebelumnya tidak diketahui. Clustering adalah salah satu metode dalam data mining yang dimana objek data yang mempunyai kemiripan atau karakteristik yang sama akan dikelompokan menjadi satu kelompok dan yang berbeda di kelompokkan pada kelompok yang lainnya. Salah satu aspek kedisiplinan yang dapat digunakan untuk mengevaluasi kinerja pegawai adalah dengan kehadiran. Metode k-means digunakan untuk mengelompokan tingkat kedisiplinan pegawai kemudian mendeskripsikan nilai-nilai yang sudah didapatkan untuk menghasilkan sebuah knowledge baru mengenai pola data tingkat kedisplinan pegawai. Data absensi di clustering menjadi 3 yaitu untuk mengukur tingkat kedisiplinan rendah, sedang, dan tinggi. proses perhitungan dari 41 sampel pegawai menghasilkan 3 kali iterasi, dan di dapatkan hasil akhir 3 cluster yaitu cluster 1 sebanyak 10 pegawai dengan kedisiplinan rendah, cluster 2 sebanyak 7 pegawai dengan kedisiplinan sedang, dan cluster 3 sebanyak 24 pegawai dengan kedisiplinan tinggi, Penelitian ini bertujuan agar pimpinan dapat mengetahui pegawai mana yang memiliki tingkat kedisiplinan tinggi, sedang dan rendah sehingga dapat memberikan apresiasi atau penghargaan dan sanksi agar dapat mempertahankan dan meningkatkan kedisiplinannya sehingga pelayanan kepada masyarakat bisa optimal dan visi misi pemerintah daerah bisa tercapai.

Model-independent Constraints on Clustering and Growth of Cosmic Structures from BOSS DR12 Galaxies in Harmonic Space
Authors: Tanidis Konstantinos , Camera Stefano 
Published: April 2023

Abstract
We present a new, model-independent measurement of the clustering amplitude of galaxies and the growth of cosmic large-scale structures from the Baryon Oscillation Spectroscopic Survey (BOSS) 12th data release. This is achieved by generalizing harmonic-space power spectra for galaxy clustering to measure separately the magnitudes of the density and the redshift-space distortion terms, respectively related to the clustering amplitude of structures, b
σ
8(z), and their growth, f
σ
8(z). We adopt a tomographic approach with 15 redshift bins in z ∈ [0.15, 0.67]. We restrict our analysis to strictly linear scales, implementing a redshift-dependent maximum multipole for each bin. The measurements do not appear to suffer from systematic effects, and they show excellent agreement with the theoretical predictions from the Planck cosmic microwave background analysis assuming a ΛCDM cosmology. Our results also agree with previous analyses by the BOSS collaboration. Furthermore, our method provides the community with a new tool for data analyses of the cosmic large-scale structure, complementary to state-of-the-art approaches in configuration or Fourier space. Among its merits, we list: it being more agnostic with respect to the underlying cosmological model; its roots in a well-defined and gauge-invariant observable; the possibility to account naturally for wide-angle effects and even relativistic corrections on ultra-large scales; and the capability to perform an almost arbitrarily fine redshift binning with little computational effort. These aspects are all the more relevant for the oncoming generation of cosmological experiments such as Euclid, the Dark Energy Spectroscopic Instrument, the Legacy Survey of Space and Time, and the SKA Project.
The Peculiar Variable X-Ray Spectrum of the Active Galactic Nucleus PKS 2005–489
Authors: Chase Owen , McBride Felicia , Gokus Andrea , Lucchini Matteo , Zhang Haocheng , Ojha Roopesh , Fox Derek B. 
Published: April 2023

Abstract
PKS 2005−489 is a well-known, bright southern BL Lac object that has been detected up to TeV energies. In a low-flux state it exhibits the expected multiwavelength double-peaked spectrum in the radio−γ-ray band. The high-flux state shows extreme flux variations in the X-ray band with a hardening as well as a peculiar curved feature in the spectrum. Thus far, PKS 2005−489 is the only source to exhibit such a feature. To study the X-ray variability further, we obtained the first hard X-ray spectrum of the source with the Nuclear Spectroscopic Telescope Array. We compare quasi-simultaneous radio, optical, UV, soft and hard X-ray, and γ-ray data of PKS 2005−489 to archival data in order to study its broadband behavior. We find a very consistent quiet state in the spectral energy distribution, with little variation in spectral shape or flux between the 2012 and 2020 data. A possible explanation for the peculiar X-ray spectrum in the flaring state is an additional component in the jet, possibly accelerated via magnetic reconnection, that is not co-spatial to the low-flux state emission region.
Spatial Coincidence between Ultra-high Energy Cosmic Rays and TeV Gamma Rays in the Direction of GRB 980425/SN 1998bw
Authors: Mirabal Nestor 
Published: April 2023

Abstract
Gamma-ray bursts (GRBs) have long been suspected as possible ultra-high energy cosmic ray (UHECR) accelerators. In this brief note, I report that GRB 980425/SN 1998bw falls within the region of interest (ROI) with the highest significance in an all-sky blind search for magnetically induced effects in the arrival directions of UHECRs conducted by the Pierre Auger Collaboration with events detected up to to 2018 August 31. There is also report in the literature of delayed TeV emission in archival Fermi LAT observations from the direction of GRB 980425/SN 1998bw. The combined probability that two distinct cosmic ray acceleration signatures in two different multimessenger experiments may appear at the same spatial location by chance is estimated to be between 1.62 × 10−3 and 0.0157.

The information system is very urgent to develop as a tool for monitoring hemodialysis (HD) services. System monitoring can prevent medical errors in the hospital.
AIM: The aim of the study was to develop a Patient-Centered Care Information System at the HD clinic and make the monitoring systems for doctors and nurses. This study was conducted in Nitipuran Health Center of HD care specialists. The data were obtained from the interview in 12 participants consisting of nursing in Nitipuran Health Center of HD care specialist.
METHODS: This was a qualitative research with a design case study with focus group discussion.
RESULTS: An electronic medical record was built to provide better service for dialysis patients at HD clinics. According to the healthcare workers’ convenience, the system that could input PCs and tablets used two different approaches. A PC-based system is for doctors, and the tablet-based system is used by nurses who frequently monitor dialysis patients.
CONCLUSION: The system built will make it easier for healthcare workers to monitor dialysis care from start to finish.
En quel sens le beau kantien est-il l’héritier du sublime longinien ? Monisme ou dualisme esthétique ?
Authors: Saint Girons Baldine 
Published: April 2023

Contrairement à l’attente du lecteur cultivé, ce n’est pas dans l’Analytique du sublime, mais dans celle du beau qu’on peut sentir l’influence de Longin sur Kant. Le rôle de la lecture de Burke est, lui, plus facile à cerner : Kant y trouve le fil directeur d’une opposition systématique du sublime et du beau et de leur nécessaire définition l’un par rapport à l’autre. La question du monisme ou du dualisme esthétique devient alors centrale et rejoint chez Kant celle du sens de la place de la raison humaine. Quelle est la finalité de l’évolution ? Et l’espèce humaine parvient-elle à « la fin dernière de sa destination morale » quand « l’art, ayant atteint sa perfection, redevient nature », selon la formule saisissante de Mutmasslicher Anfang der Menschengeschichte (VIII, 117-118, Pléiade, II, p. 513) ?

Oxide dispersion strengthened (ODS) ferritic alloys are structural materials used in nuclear fusion reactors, which exhibit enhanced mechanical properties, as well as corrosion and irradiation resistance. In the present work, ODS ferritic alloys with composition Fe-14Cr-1.5W-0.4Ti-(0, 0.4, 0.8) Y2O3 (in wt.%) were prepared employing high energy milling (HEM) followed by Spark Plasma Sintering (SPS). The particle size distribution (PSD) of the milled powders was characterized by laser diffraction. These powders and the sintered materials produced were characterized using X-ray diffraction (XRD), and scanning electron microscopy (SEM). The sintered materials were also characterized by dilatometry, diametral compression, Vickers microhardness, and corrosion rate tests. The largest Young’s modulus, microhardness, and dimensional shrinkage/expansion were obtained for the 0.8 wt.% Y2O3 alloy. However, this alloy was the least ductile. Furthermore, the 0.8 wt.% Y2O3 alloy was the one with the least dimensional change. According to the potentiodynamic polarization studies, it was found that the protective layer of Cr2O3 formed on the surface of the three alloys studied was less effective for the yttria-free alloy, since in this case the rupture of such protective layer occurred earlier than for the case of the yttria-containing alloys. Based on these results, it is suggested that the 0.8 wt.% Y2O3 alloy having fine microstructure could constitute a potential alternative as a structural material for Gen IV-type reactors.
Un « arrière-goût » du Fer en Phénicie romaine
Authors: Fani Alpi Zeina 
Published: May 2023

The sculpted divine reliefs of the Roman period in Lebanon bear witness to themes and motifs that often predate the 1st century BC and are clearly of regional inspiration. Yet Philo of Byblos insisted on the originality and antiquity of the local pantheons. In fact, the treatment of the façade of the temple of Chhîm (2nd century AD) can be compared to the Sidonian naiskoi dated to the 9th-5th century BC. The theme of the winged sun, found in Byblos, Chhîm or Baalbek, of Egyptian inspiration, attests to a long iconographic continuity between ancient Phoenicia and Roman sculpted decorations. The divinities flanked by animals, the so-called Astarte thrones or the figures of priests with conical caps performing on thymiaters confirm the rooting of the representations in an oriental substrate.
« Une certaine condamnation de l’art phénicien » (E. Renan) : dévalorisation et réhabilitation du goût phénicien aux xixe et xxe siècles
Authors: Bonnet Corinne 
Published: May 2023

Dans sa Mission de Phénicie, Ernest Renan a recours à la notion de goût, fondamentalement pour disqualifier la culture phénicienne au regard des deux cultures qui constituent, à ses yeux, les piliers de l’héritage antique  : la culture grecque pour la raison et la beauté, la culture judéo-chrétienne pour le monothéisme et la morale. On s’efforce donc de comprendre les ressorts de cette vision en la situant à la fois dans l’œuvre de Renan et dans son contexte historique. On étudie également les prolongements de cette théorie et sa remise en question aux xxe et xxie siècles.
Conquérir un point de vue populationnel et historique pour apprendre l’évolution
Authors: Gobert Julie , Lhoste Yann 
Published: April 2023

Cet article analyse une séquence d’enseignement-apprentissage en biologie de l’évolution qui s’adresse à des élèves de 14-15 ans. Les analyses sont menées en termes de structuration des contextes, par une approche à la fois épistémologique et didactique. Elles documentent la logique de construction du contexte socio-épistémologique du concept de sélection naturelle et les dynamiques d’évolution des contextes problématique, intersubjectif et intra-subjectif au cours de la séquence. Les dimensions heuristiques de la modélisation par structuration de contextes nous permettent de produire une double grille de feuillets d’élaboration de l’approche populationnelle et du concept de sélection naturelle. Elle nous amène à identifier des scénarios et gestes langagiers hautement fonctionnels dans la construction d’un contexte pertinent au regard du concept de sélection naturelle. Elle montre le double mouvement d’introduction des concepts scientifiques dans les situations formelles d’apprentissage par l’enseignant, à partir de la construction des tâches proposées aux élèves, reprises ou accompagnées par des gestes langagiers didactiques ajustés.
Enseignements par-ci, apprentissages par-là : quelle didacticité pour une communauté non institutionnelle d’échange linguistique et culturel en Arabie saoudite ?
Authors: Navé Éric 
Published: April 2023

Dans cette contribution, nous revenons sur une expérience menée de juillet 2019 au début du mois de mars 2020 dans une communauté non institutionnelle d’apprentissage linguistique et culturel à Djeddah, en Arabie saoudite. La question sur laquelle nous nous sommes penché est la suivante : peut-on parler de situation « didactique » dans un tel contexte ? À travers une étude qualitative, qui tient davantage de l’aventure humaine que de la manipulation expérimentale, nous réfléchissons ici aux enseignements-apprentissages ayant lieu dans un tel groupe non institutionnel et nous les mesurons à l’aune du concept de didactique.

ABSTRACT

Background and Objectives:
EUS-guided hepaticogastrostomy (EUS-HGS) is an effective salvage procedure when conventional endoscopic transpapillary biliary drainage is difficult or fails. However, the risk of stent migration into the abdominal cavity has not been resolved completely. In this study, we evaluated a newly developed partially covered self-expandable metallic stent (PC-SEMS) that has a spring-like anchoring function on the gastric side.

Methods:
This retrospective pilot study took place at four referral centers in Japan between October 2019 and November 2020. We enrolled 37 cases consecutively who underwent EUS-HGS for unresectable malignant biliary obstruction.

Results:
The rates of technical and clinical success were 97.3% and 89.2%, respectively. Technical failures included one case in which the stent was dislocated during the removal of the delivery system, requiring additional EUS-HGS on another branch. Early adverse events (AEs) were observed in four patients (10.8%): two with mild peritonitis (5.4%) and one each (2.7%) with fever and bleeding. No late AEs were observed during the mean follow-up period of 5.1 months. All recurrent biliary obstructions (RBOs) were stent occlusions (29.7%). The median cumulative time to RBO was 7.1 months (95% confidence interval, 4.3 to not available). Although stent migration in which the stopper was in contact with the gastric wall on follow-up computed tomography was observed in six patients (16.2%), no migration was observed.

Conclusions:
The newly developed PC-SEMS is feasible and safe for the EUS-HGS procedure. The spring-like anchoring function on the gastric side is an effective anchor preventing migration.

ABSTRACT
During the aging process, typical morphological changes occur in the pancreas, which leads to a specific “patchy lobular fibrosis in the elderly.” The aging process in the pancreas is associated with changes in volume, dimensions, contour, and increasing intrapancreatic fat deposition. Typical changes are seen in ultrasonography, computed tomography, endosonography, and magnetic resonance imaging. Typical age-related changes must be distinguished from lifestyle-related changes. Obesity, high body mass index, and metabolic syndrome also lead to fatty infiltration of the pancreas. In the present article, age-related changes in morphology and imaging are discussed. Particular attention is given to the sonographic verification of fatty infiltration of the pancreas. Ultrasonography is a widely used screening examination method. It is important to acknowledge the features of the normal aging processes and not to interpret them as pathological findings. Reference is made to the uneven fatty infiltration of the pancreas. The differential diagnostic and the differentiation from other processes and diseases leading to fatty infiltration of the pancreas are discussed.

Published: April 2023

Introduction:
Hypertension is a chronic disease that needs to be treated adequately. Nonadherence to antihypertensive medicines can lead to coronary heart disease and stroke complications. The present study assessed the prevalence and predictors of medication nonadherence among hypertensive patients.

Methodology:
A cross-sectional study was conducted among hypertensive patients visiting the outdoor patient department of a tertiary care hospital in North India. Trained investigators interviewed the study participants after obtaining their written informed consent. A validated tool, namely the Brief Medication Questionnaire, was used to assess the medication nonadherence. Statistical analyses were performed using the Epi Info version for Windows.

Results:
A total of 400 hypertensive patients participated in the study. The mean age of study participants was 62.8 years (standard deviation = 11.0). Around half (55.0%) of the hypertensive patients suffered from comorbid disease conditions. The prevalence of antihypertensive medication nonadherence was 23.8%. The logistic regression model revealed that patients having a shorter duration of hypertension (odds ratio = 2.2 [1.2–3.9]) and those living in a joint family (odds ratio = 1.7 [1.1–2.8]) had higher medication nonadherence, as compared to their counterparts.

Conclusion:
Nearly one-fifth of the study participants were nonadherent to their antihypertension medication. There is a need for designing and implementing effective strategies by health-care providers for increasing antihypertensive medication adherence.
