Sunnis and Shiites in Iraq: From Hate Language to Reconciliation – A Framework for Reconciliation Based on the Works of Sayyed Mohammad Hussein Fadlallah and Shaikh Mohmood Shaltoot on De-escalating Sectarian Tension
Creators: name: Jafer, Waged
Publisher: name: Université d'Ottawa / University of Ottawa
Year: 2012

description: For almost 14 centuries, religious bigotry led to violence and conflict between the Sunnis and the Shiites around the world, creating sectarian tension between them regardless of the immense commonality that they share within their belief systems. The division between them created a rift of mutual stereotypes and isolation as time went by. This reality of schismatic conflict raises the question of whether or not Islam holds the key to transforming the conflict so that positive relationships can be established. As a minor step towards reconciliation, a framework for reconciliation among the two sects will be presented by focusing at the work of two scholars that played a major role in de-escalating the conflict between Sunnis and Shiites; as they have both worked on a common principle of reconciliation and coexistence. The Shiite scholar intended for this study is Sayyed Mohammad Hussein Fadhlallah and the Sunni scholar is Sheikh Mahmood Shaltoot. Hence, the aim of this study is to follow the trail they left behind, hoping to implement their ideology of peace and reconciliation in a modified, effective framework that could generate a change in attitude and perceptions. The idea is to provide an effective reconciliation proposal that seeks common goals and interests in unity and coexistence between the two sects. This framework has its roots in the thoughts and teachings of Fadhlallah and Shaltoot and is developed by theories in Conflict Resolution. The framework was eventually analysed using the expertise and knowledge of some of the prominent religious leaders from Iraq and Lebanon in order to finalize and conclude the applicability of the framework as a conflict resolution strategy on de-escalation of sectarian violence; aiming for coexistence.

description: We model the light HESS J1731-347 compact object (of known stellar mass and radius) within Einstein's General Relativity imposing the Karmarkar condition in gravity for anisotropic stars. The three free parameters of the analytic solution are determined imposing the matching conditions at the surface of the star for objects of known stellar mass and radius. Finally, using well established criteria it is shown that the solution is compatible with all requirements for well behaved and realistic solutions. Furthermore, we study the radial oscillation modes, and we compare to the ones corresponding to an isotropic star modeled by the Tolman IV exact analytic solution obtained long time ago. A comparison between the large frequency separations is made as well.

The Lived Experiences of Parents of Children with Polyposis Diagnoses: Advocating Healing Relationships

Lived Experience

description: While much research has been conducted on the experiences of individuals with inflammatory bowel diseases, there remains a dearth of research conducted on those affected by polyposis conditions. As a result, little is known about the lived experiences of those with polyposis conditions, especially in the cases of parents of pediatric patients with these conditions. This study qualitatively explored the lived experiences of parents of children with polyposis conditions, specifically Juvenile Polyposis Syndrome and Peutz-Jeghers Syndrome. Hermeneutic phenomenology was used to explore the lived experiences of seven parents of children diagnosed with polyposis conditions through semi-structured interviews. Collected data was analysed using Lindseth and Norberg (2004)’s Phenomenological Hermeneutical Method for Researching Lived Experience. In total, four major themes comprising of twelve sub-themes were revealed. Parents discussed feeling grateful for the use of family-centred approaches by their children’s physicians as well as access to medical care for their children, which encouraged them to demonstrate a proactive approach towards their children’s health maintenance. Furthermore, they explained that while seeking information concerning their children’s conditions was anxiety-inducing, discussing their experiences with others with situations similar to theirs was validating and informative. The participants described the importance of advocating for their children within and outside of the medical system, and the responsibility they feel in teaching their children to undertake the advocating process for themselves. Lastly, the parents reflected on the impact their children’s diagnoses have had on their relationships with themselves, their families and their support networks. Overall, the findings from this study are in-line with findings from prior research, except in the case of the ‘Teaching the children to speak for themselves’ theme which proves to be a novel contribution to the literature. The shared key aspects of the phenomenon indicate that focus should be placed on the utilization of family-centred care by physicians, the development of support groups for parents, and on educating physicians on how to best facilitate parents as they model advocating behaviours to pediatric patients. This study provides insight into the lived experiences of parents of children with polyposis syndromes, informing the medical community of how the needs of this group can be better met. Furthermore, the qualitative nature of this research will provide the polyposis, chronic illness and rare illness literatures with information it has been lacking, using a valuable methodological perspective.
Biomass Fast Pyrolysis Fluidized Bed Reactor: Modelling and Experimental Validation

description: Of the many thermochemical conversion pathways for utilizing biomass as a renewable energy source, fast pyrolysis is a promising method for converting and upgrading carbonaceous feedstocks into a range of liquid fuels for use in heat, electricity and transportation applications. Experimental trials have been carried out to assess the impact of operational parameters on process yields. However, dealing with larger-scale experimental systems comes at the expense of lengthy and resource-intensive experiments. Luckily, the advances in computing technology and numerical algorithm solvers have allowed reactor modelling to be an attractive opportunity for reactor design, optimization and experimental data interpretation in a cost-effective fashion. In this work, a fluidized bed reactor model for biomass fast pyrolysis was developed and applied to the Bell’s Corners Complex (BCC) fluidized bed fast pyrolysis unit located at NRCan CanmetENERGY (Ottawa, Canada) for testing and validation. The model was programmed using the Microsoft Visual Basic for Applications software with the motivation of facilitating use and accessibility as well as minimizing runtime and input requirements. The application of different biomass devolatilization schemes within the model was conducted, not only for biomass fast pyrolysis product quantity but also liquid product composition (quality), to examine the effect of variable reaction kinetic sub-models on product yields. The model predictions were in good agreement with the results generated from the experimental work and mechanism modifications were proposed which further increased the accuracy of model predictions. Successively, the formulation of the modelled fluid dynamic scheme was adapted to study the effect of variable hydrodynamic sub-models on product yields for which no significant effect was observed. The work also looked into effect of the dominant process variables such as feedstock composition, bed temperature, fluidizing velocity and feedstock size on measurable product outputs (bio-oil, gas and biochar) and compared the results to those generated from the experimental fast pyrolysis unit. The ideal parameters for maximizing bio-oil yield have been determined to be those which: minimize the content of lignin and inorganic minerals in the feedstock, maintain the dense-bed temperature in a temperature range of 450-520 ºC, maximize the fluidization velocity without leading to bed entrainment, and limit the feedstock particle size to a maximum of 2000 μm.

description: Using experimentally measured temperature-process-dependent model parameters, the failure analysis and life prediction were conducted for Atmospheric Plasma Sprayed Thermal Barrier Coatings (APS-TBCs) and electron beam physical vapor deposition thermal barrier coatings (EB-PVD TBCs) with Pt-modified -NiAl bond coats deposited on Ni-base single crystal superalloys. For APS-TBC system, a residual stress model for the top coat of APS-TBC was proposed and then applied to life prediction. The capability of the life model was demonstrated using temperature-dependent model parameters. Using existing life data, a comparison of fitting approaches of life model parameters was performed. The role of the residual stresses distributed at each individual coating layer was explored and their interplay on the coating’s delamination was analyzed. For EB-PVD TBCs, based on failure mechanism analysis, two newly analytical stress models from the valley position of top coat and ridge of bond coat were proposed describing stress levels generated as consequence of the coefficient of thermal expansion (CTE) mismatch between each layers. The thermal stress within TGO was evaluated based on composite material theory, where effective parameters were calculated. The lifetime prediction of EB-PVD TBCs was conducted given that the failure analysis and life model were applied to two failure modes A and B identified experimentally for thermal cyclic process. The global wavelength related to interface rumpling and its radius curvature were identified as essential parameters in life evaluation, and the life results for failure mode A were verified by existing burner rig test data. For failure mode B, the crack growth rate along the topcoat/TGO interface was calculated using the experimentally measured average interfacial fracture toughness.

description: Advancements in generative Artificial Intelligence (AI) hold great promise for automating radiology workflows, yet challenges in interpretability and reliability hinder clinical adoption. This paper presents an automated radiology report generation framework that combines Concept Bottleneck Models (CBMs) with a Multi-Agent Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG) system to bridge AI performance with clinical explainability. CBMs map chest X-ray features to human-understandable clinical concepts, enabling transparent disease classification. Meanwhile, the RAG system integrates multi-agent collaboration and external knowledge to produce contextually rich, evidence-based reports. Our demonstration showcases the system's ability to deliver interpretable predictions, mitigate hallucinations, and generate high-quality, tailored reports with an interactive interface addressing accuracy, trust, and usability challenges. This framework provides a pathway to improving diagnostic consistency and empowering radiologists with actionable insights.

The Saccharomyces cerevisae Acetyltransferase NuA4 Regulates Stress Granule Formation in Response to Glucose Deprivation

description: When cells are exposed to stress conditions such as heat stress (HS) and glucose deprivation (GD), stress granules (SG) form in the cytoplasm that act to sequester and protect translationally stalled mRNAs from degradation. Presently it is poorly understood how the cell regulates the formation of SGs, however numerous post translational modifications (PTMs) have been detected on SG proteins in both yeast and man, including lysine acetylation. Disruption of lysine deacetylases (KDACs) has been reported to impact SG function in mammalian cells, by an unknown mechanism. Likewise, existing data indicates that the S. cerevisiae lysine acetyltransferase (KAT) NuA4 interacts with and acetylates several SG proteins in-vitro. In this work I demonstrate that NuA4 is required for GD SG assembly, and is involved in regulating SG formation in response to HS and NaN3 treatment. Further, I show that NuA4 is not contributing to GD SG assembly through inhibition of translation initiation, regulation of the glucose sensing pathway Snf1/AMPK, or modulation of Pab1 protein levels. The identification of glucose dependent acetylation sites on Pab1 and the discovery that Pab1 in-vivo acetylation state is dependent on NuA4 implies that acetylation of SG proteins, and Pab1 in particular, maybe a key regulator of assembly. Interestingly, my studies reveal that KDACs inhibit SG formation in unstressed conditions. Collectively this work establishes a role for NuA4 in regulating SG assembly and suggests that lysine acetylation is playing a conserved and critical role in mRNA metabolism.

From ‘tension’ to ‘justice à venir’ Rearticulating the Relationship between International Human Rights Law and International Trade Law towards More Just Outcomes

description: This article proposes that the characterisation of the relationship between international trade law and international human rights law as one of tension or incoherence limits the conceptualisation of justice permissible within international trade law, locates international human rights law as trade law’s ‘other’ and masks a deeper problematique within both bodies of international law. Drawing from Derrida’s concept of ‘justice à venir’ to recognise the inherent ‘promise of justice’ quality of law, and from post-colonial and critical philosophical analyses of international law to identify some foundational conceptual and normative biases inherent to both bodies of law, this article proposes that greater attention to the tensions within international trade law may lead to an enhanced recognition and re-envisioning of the justice potential of international trade law.

description: ABSTRACT: The aim of the article is to present the contemporary challenges of theology and the struggles of members of the Catholic Church in the field of ecclesiology, especially in the context of perceiving the papacy and its role. John Henry Newman (1801–1890) was an Anglican clergyman who, influenced by personal research, converted to Catholicism. He was proclamated a saint in 2019 by Pope Francis at the Vatican. For many years Newman has struggled with the difficulties of the papacy. In the Anglican period, he has supported describing the Pope more as Antichrist than Pontifex. The article deals with the issue of phenomenon of conversion Newman's ideas, which are contemporarily questioned, denied or distorted: the apostolic succession; the episcopalism and collegiality of bishops; the synodality of the local Church and its limits; sensus fidei of the Christian people and the designation of their own Via Media, as well as negative trends in relation to current Pope of the Roman Catholic Church. In article are presented analogies between theological researches of John Henry Newman and the theological and moral confusion of many contemporary Catholics. - - - - ABSTRAKT: Celem artykułu jest ukazanie współczesnych wyzwań teologii i zmagań członków Kościoła katolickiego na gruncie eklezjologii, szczególnie w kontekście postrzegania papiestwa i jego roli. John Henry Newman (1801–1890) to anglikański duchowny, który pod wpływem osobistych poszukiwań przyjął katolicyzm. Został ogłoszony świętym przez papieża Franciszka w 2019 roku w Watykanie. Newman przez wiele lat zmagał się z trudnościami związanymi z ideą papiestwa. Sam w okresie anglikańskim wtórował w określaniu papieża bardziej Antychrystem niż Pontifexem. Artykuł porusza zagadnienia związane z fenomenem przemiany myśli Newmana, które współcześnie są podważane, negowane lub wypaczane: sukcesja apostolska; episkopalność i kolegialność; synodalność lokalnego Kościoła i jej granice; sensus fidei ludu chrześcijańskiego a wyznaczanie własnej Via Media, a także nurty negacjonistyczne w stosunku do urzędującego papieża. W artykule wskazano analogie pomiędzy poszukiwaniami J. H. Newmana a sytuacją teologiczno-moralnego zagubienia wielu współczesnych katolików.

Meredith Terretta montre comment l’analyse historique contribue à éclairer le caractère conjoncturel des droits humains contemporains. Étudiant l’Afrique du 20e siècle, Terretta se focalise sur l’activisme transrégional en vue de démontrer que, bien avant l’émergence en 1948 d’un cadre discursif sur l'universalité des droits humains, le cadre colonial était déjà le théâtre de revendications de droits.

description: In line with the Haitian proverb withing my title, I will attempt to reveal that "to speak French does not necessarily mean that you are smart!" by using a postcolonial analysis to elaborate on the role of language in shaping identity and power in Haiti. this broader objective will require that I elucidate on how language constructs and is constructed by modern society through its usage as both a constitutive and communicative practice and as a geo-political and cultural identity marker. Understanding the postcolonial condition of language in the Haitian context is a complex endeavor because it requires a broader understanding of the strategic function and engagement of language with various eurocentric global discourses, namely colonialism, nationalism and development. These discourses are central to the language, identity and power construct because they have had and still continue to bear a lasting impact on the way in which we conceptualize and categorize the world order. Furthermore, each evolved and were deployed based on eurocentric rationalities that were substantiated by claims of power, knowledge and domination. Lastly, the constellations of power that shaped these discourses continuously placed the Haitian nation in a subaltern position., first as a slave colony, then a Third world nation and finally, as under-developed. Hence, I will argue that these systems of power, knowledge and representation when contextualized, result in a postcolonial condition for language that binds identity and power within racial/ethnic ideologies of power. In the case of Haiti, an examination of the socio-historical construction of the political and educational discourses revealed a direct engagement with the global ideologies of power. Consequently, within these systems, French symbolically embodied the dominant facet of the classifications of power while Creole absorbed all of the subaltern positions that the systems produced. Thus, the linguistic landscape of the country reveals a direct engagement with both global and local relations of power or discourses and thus elucidates the complexities and complicities within them. This recognition provides a complex and grounded appreciation of the social relations that exists within the country and the role of language in shaping and maintaining these structures and conversely, the role of society in producing and upholding the linguistic dualism within Haiti.

description: The case concerning demolition of the Japanese General Government Building in Seoul, South Korea, from the Japanese colonialism has been discussed since Korea’s liberation in 1945, but the building had been used for many functions during that time frame. This building was finally demolished during the period 1995 to 1997, despite the national and international protestations. This research analysed newspaper articles to study the conflict between pro-demolition and pro-conservation groups in the newspapers to see how, and why the conflict proceeded. Korean newspaper archives were used to search four newspapers from the time period of 1991 to 1998, using the keyword ‘Japanese General Government Building’. The collected data was analysed with qualitative methodology to understand the conflicts in the newspapers. This analysis revealed three reasons put forward by the pro-conservation, Memorial and Educational Value, Art and Use Value, and Economic Value and, two reasons of pro-demolition, the Memorial Obstacle and Socio-cultural obstacle. Most reasons for both groups were classic arguments relating to other difficult heritage buildings, however, two different reasons are pertinent to this particular case: First, the government did not present any practical reasons to destroy the building. Second, Feng-Shui was presented as one of the main reasons for destroying the building. This socio-cultural element has been a fundamental and strong belief system in Korea.

description: Growing discourse around maternity care during the pandemic offers an opportunity to reflect on how this crisis has amplified inequities in health care. We argue that policies upholding the rights of birthing people, and policies decreasing the risk of COVID-19 transmission are not mutually exclusive. The explicit lack of standardization of evidence-based maternity care, whether expressed in clinical protocols or institutional policy, has disproportionately impacted marginalized communities. If these factors remain unexamined, then it would seem that equity is not the priority, but retaining power and control is. We advocate for a comprehensive understanding of how this pandemic has revealed our deepest failures.

description: This thesis presents a new methodology for measuring and reporting the value of human capital (HC). Building on prior research in strategic HC management and related fields, a disclosure-based HC index, which contains both HC proxies and disclosures scores, is built based on information collected from the annual reports and other stakeholder reports of “the best companies to work for” survey (“Universum” 2010). This thesis examines the importance of the degree of HC disclosure and its correlation with company “Universum” ranks and tests whether higher employee benefits and welfare are positively related to HC information disclosed in the issued reports. Furthermore, it investigates whether higher levels of financial and non-financial HC information disclosure are associated with better firm performance and tests whether the positive relationship between human capital proxies and firm performance (concluded by resource-based theory and strategic HRM) is still valid during the crisis years (2008-2010). Regression results indicate that human capital information disclosed in previous years has a weak effect on company’s Universum rank and no influence on firm performance. Moreover, the commonly used employee incentive-based management methods may no longer be effective during the economic crisis years. Investing in training during the financial crisis period is critical for better firm performance. More research is needed in the future to examine the role of human capital in firm performance and how it should be measured, managed and governed in modern corporations.

Twentieth-Century Canadian Law, Psychiatry, and Social Activism in Relation to Pedophiles and Child Sex Offenders

description: The contemporary conflation of pedophiles and child sex offenders is a prevalent aspect of reporting in news and social media, as well as in government-sponsored efforts to prevent child sexual victimization. Throughout twentieth century Canada, however, legal experts, psychologists and psychiatrists, and social activists were recognizing the harmfulness of grouping individuals who may have a propensity to commit crime with those who have committed the most heinous of criminal acts. As early as 1938, Canadian legal experts suggested that criminal insanity was a myth, advocating for a divergence between legal punishment and psychiatric healthcare, but after World War 2 had enacted serious efforts targeting criminal sexual psychopathy. Successive Royal Commissions investigating sexual victimization and child abuse revealed that Canadian courts, jails, prisons, and remand services were unable to solely deal with the realities of child sexual victimization. Psychologists and psychiatrists of the American Psychological Association increasingly researched sex and sexuality, classifying pedophilia as a paraphilia using child sexual victimization as a diagnostic indicator and criterion. Gay liberation activists discussed inequalities posed between hetero- and homosexual ages of consent and, more rarely, thought about the total abolition of age of consent. Each of these discourses firmly advocated for a separation between thought and action, recognizing the pedophiles who had not and would not harm children. The historical roots of the conflation of pedophiles and child sex offenders makes an important contribution to understanding contemporary discourses on criminality, victimology, sexology, and sociology, and to the development of efforts which can more successfully reduce child sexual victimization.

description: Лимфоциты здоровых доноров при культивировании in vitro обладают рядом преимуществ по сравнению с лимфоцитами онкологических больных. При невозможности проведения иммунотерапии собственными (аутологичными) активированными лимфоцитами пациенту с онкологическим заболеванием может быть предложено проведение адаптивной иммунотерапии аллогенными цитотоксическими лимфоцитами.
A Reflexive Approach to Israeli-Palestinian Encounter Groups: A New way of Conducting Dialogue Between Groups in Entrenched Conflict

description: This paper looks at why Israeli-Palestinian encounter groups have not been as successful as hoped by theory. Through the categorization of themes found in the literature and through experience of the writer, the core dynamics of encounter groups are analyzed. One of the key aspects missing in encounter groups is reflexivity: being able to see how what one does and says impacts the conflict and then being able to view the conflict from both sides’ perspectives. This paper lays out the design of an encounter group based on reflexivity. By learning about the dynamics that occur when Israelis and Palestinians meet in dialogue and using neutral conflict theory, temporarily removing the participants mentally from the conflict, participants can gain a better understanding of their own behaviour and the other’s behaviour. It is hoped that through a reflexive approach, participants will have better long term outcomes in terms of change in attitudes.

description: Über das kommunale Abwassersystem wird eine Vielzahl von Stoffen in die Gewässer eingetragen. In einem von den Bundesländern und dem Bundesministerium für Umwelt, Naturschutz und nukleare Sicherheit finanzierten und koordiniert durchgeführten Untersuchungsprogramm wurden 49 Kläranlagen und ausgewählte Regenwasserbehandlungsanlagen auf prioritäre Stoffe und Biozid-Wirkstoffe untersucht. Ziel war die Schaffung einer validen Datenbasis zur Beurteilung der Relevanz urbaner Abwasserflüsse als Eintragspfade für Schadstoffe in die Gewässer. Die insgesamt 77 Stoffe waren unterschiedlich häufig im Ablauf der Kläranlagen und Regenwasserbehandlungsanlagen zu finden. Für 30 Stoffe konnten mittlere Ablaufkonzentrationen bestimmt und deutschlandweit anwendbare Emissionsfaktoren zur Quantifizierung der Stoffeinträge aus kommunalen Kläranlagen in die Gewässer abgeleitet werden.

description: The municipal wastewater system discharges a multitude of substances into water bodies. In a coordinated investigation financed by Germany's federal states and the German Federal Ministry for the Environment, Nature Conservation and Nuclear Safety, a team examined 49 sewage treatment plants and selected rainwater treatment plants for priority substances and biocidal active substances. This work aimed to create a robust database to gauge the relevance of urban wastewater flows as a pathway for the discharge of pollutants into water bodies. The 77 substances evaluated were found in sewage treatment plant and rainwater treatment plant effluent with varying frequency. Average effluent concentrations were determined for 30 substances. The research also came up with emission factors that can be applied throughout Germany to quantify the discharge of substances from municipal sewage treatment plants into water bodies.

description: In computer experiments, it has become a standard practice to select the inputs that spread out as uniformly as possible over the design space. The resulting designs are called space-filling designs and they are undoubtedly desirable choices when there is no prior knowledge on how the input variables affect the response and the objective of experiments is global fitting. When there is some prior knowledge on the underlying true function of the system or what statistical models are more appropriate, a natural question is, are there more suitable designs than vanilla space-filling designs? In this article, we provide an answer for the cases where there are no interactions between the factors from disjoint groups of variables. In other words, we consider the design issue when the underlying functional form of the system or the statistical model to be used is additive where each component depends on one group of variables from a set of disjoint groups. For such cases, we recommend using {\em grouped orthogonal arrays.} Several construction methods are provided and many designs are tabulated for practical use. Compared with existing techniques in the literature, our construction methods can generate many more designs with flexible run sizes and better within-group projection properties for any prime power number of levels.
Bisexual Women in the Christian Faith: Composing with a Complex Identity

description: Research has shown that bisexual women of the Christian faith are faced with a quadruple minority status composed of first holding a non-heterosexual orientation; second by having a sexual attraction based on the person rather than their gender; third by being both a person of sexual minority and part of the Christian faith; and fourth being a woman in a patriarchal society. This grounded-theory based qualitative study aimed to clarify how this population composes with these multiple layers of oppression and with their complex identities. Semi-structured interviews were conducted with two Canadian Anglophone women between the ages of 18-50 who identify as bisexual and Christian. Results revealed seventeen emerging themes and three meaning units which inform the process by which these bisexual women have managed to compose with their complex identity comprised of being bisexual, Christian, and women. Based on the results of this study a model outlining the clinical dimensions to be considered for psychotherapy with this population was elaborated.
Le Droit : à la découverte des enjeux idéologiques et identitaires des Canadiens français de l'Ontario durant l'entre-deux-guerres (1918-1939)

Le Droit

description: Cette thèse révèle que les racines de l’identité franco-ontarienne émergent durant l’entre-deux-guerres. L’analyse systématique de plus de 6000 éditoriaux du Droit, permet d’établir qu’il existe déjà des fissures au sein du Canada français, et ce, bien avant la « rupture » des années 1960. Ancré dans la communauté intellectuelle canadienne-française de l’époque, le discours soutenu par les éditorialistes montre la coexistence d’un nationalisme canadien, d’un nationalisme canadien-français et d’une identité franco-ontarienne qui s’affirme déjà dès les années 1920. Mis sur pied en mars 1913 pour combattre le Règlement XVII, Le Droit a mené une lutte pour la survivance des Canadiens français de l’Ontario qui n’a connu aucun essoufflement durant la période à l’étude. L’utilisation du vocable « Franco-Ontariens » et les demandes répétées de représentants spécifiquement franco-ontariens, surtout au niveau fédéral, témoignent de l’existence de besoins spécifiques liés au contexte provincial ontarien qui dépassent le contexte de la lutte scolaire.
