Figs 1B, 26 E–H, 31A–C
Purcelliana problematica Cooke, 1964: 282, figs 47, 52, 64 (Holotype male from Prince Albert, Western Cape [33°13’36.57”S 22°2’8.57”E], South Africa, deposited in SAMC 3916, examined).
Remarks. As observed by Cooke (1964), the holotype is poorly preserved, but it is possible to identify the diagnostic characters for the genus in the specimen. In addition, obtaining additional material allowed us to complement the description of the genus, as well as that of P. problematica.
Diagnosis. Males of Purcelliana problematica resemble those of P. cederbergensis sp. nov. by the male palp with the embolus mostly straight (Figs 31A, B) and a strong, laterally protruding dRTA, but are distinguished by the presence of a median, distally rounded tegular projection (absent in P. cederbergensis sp. nov.) and by the embolus slender and tapering (laminar and robust in P. cederbergensis sp. nov. Figs 31E). Females are unknown.
Description. Male (NCA 2008/679). Carapace and legs pale yellow, abdomen gray (Fig. 26E). Total length: 2.42. Carapace 1.05 long, 0.90 wide; Abdomen 1.37 long, 0.72 wide; Sternum 0.77 long, 0.63 wide; Spinnerets: ALS 0.17 long, 0.13 wide. Eye diameters: AME 0.05, ALE 0.04, PME 0.07, PLE 0.09; interdistances: AME–AME 0.05, PME–PME 0.04. Chelicerae 0.44 long. Leg measurements: I: 3.84 (1.04, 0.59, 0.90, 0.74, 0.58); II: 2.83 (0.80, 0.44, 0.59, 0.54, 0.46); III: 2.38 (0.65, 0.38, 0.45, 0.46, 0.44); IV: 3.46 (0.94, 0.50, 0.80, 0.70, 0.53). Palp: vRTA truncated, smaller than dRTA, latter with tip curved ventrally; conductor hyaline, laminar, distally widened (Figs 31 A–C).
Female. Unknown.
Distribution. South Africa (Fig. 34).
Material examined. South Africa: Western Cape, Anysberg Nature Reserve, 33°31′48″S 20°45′36″E, 1 male, 24 September 2005, C. Haddad & R. Lyle leg. (NCA 2008 /679).

description: Massively parallel sequencing is fast emerging as an increasingly useful tool for forensic science. As part of our ongoing validation of this technology we wanted to both ensure compatibility of the technology with laser microdissected (LMD) cells and use the LMD to explore the minimal and optimal numbers of cells required to generate informative profiles. To do this we used the ForenSeq (TM) DNA Signature Prep Kit and a MiSeq FGx (TM) Sequencer. In this paper we describe the modifications made to our one step DNA extraction protocol to optimize sequencing performance, and address technical issues that require consideration when sequencing DNA from small numbers of cells, below the optimum amounts recommended. We demonstrate that DNA sequence profiles can be obtained from very small numbers of laser micro dissected epithelial and sperm cells, demonstrating the utility of this approach.

description: South-South relations have raised hopes of a new development geography – one based on solidarity andmore horizontal partnerships among countries in the Global South. In recent years, however, many ofthese aspirations have proven far-fetched. In the case of Brazil, the presidency of Jair Bolsonaro may evensuggest that the South–South hype is now over and done. However, empirical accounts of the engage-ment of Southern, emerging market-based multinationals across the Global South, such as that ofBrazil’s mining corporation Vale in Mozambique, remain scarce. One missing perspective in definingSouth-South relations is the agency of other actors beyond emerging powers’ governments. This articletherefore goes beyond the pre-eminence of the Brazilian state. Instead, it analyses how South–South rela-tions have been signified and used by two critical actors in the context of Vale’s extractive operations inMozambique: first, the professionals involved in corporate responsibility projects and second, theMozambican power elites. There is a range of analyses of South–South ties, the imaginaries and hopesassociated with them, and their practical possibilities which change according to the expectations,demands, and interests of different actors. We observe that Brazilian professionals in particular have builton specific cultural framings and imaginaries associated with South–South relations to claim a distinctvision and practice of corporate responsibility. Taking note of the prominent role played byMozambique’s ruling party Frelimo, we further demonstrate how Mozambican power elites have har-nessed, through gatekeeping practices, the country’s commodity-spurred architecture of South–Southrelations to reaffirm political power and amplify individual economic interests. In light of Vale’s currentwithdrawal from Mozambique, we posit that our analysis provides a timely opportunity to reflect on themultiple makings, and implications of South-South engagement, the controversies linked to the role ofBrazilian capital in Africa, and Mozambique’s development through extraction.

description: The relief of suffering is at the heart of palliative care practice. Yet there has been little exploration of how palliative care doctors, working in different countries and cultures, recognise and respond to their patients’ suffering. This research sought to develop a deeper understanding of suffering in the palliative care context, as witnessed by doctors in India and Australia. Through narrative interviews, 18 doctors spoke of how they recognised suffering, and what it meant to them to respond to suffering. The narratives chosen for analysis spoke to the dialogical encounter in which doctors sought to connect with their patients in common humanity, to recognise the particular nature of suffering and to meet in an intersubjective, relational space. The concept of intersubjectivity provided a lens for analysis of these narratives. Here, ‘intersubjective’ is used to describe the interhuman experience in which the subjectivities of ‘I’ and ‘Thou’, described in Martin Buber’s dialogical ontology, are brought to the encounter. I use the term ‘dialogical encounter’ to describe the meaningful connection between doctor and patient, as experienced by the doctor, where there is a sense of recognition of the ‘other’ and possible emergence of the ‘in-between’ realm (Buber, 1970). A key finding is that the relief of suffering in palliative care involves dialogical encounter between doctor and patient. In this in-between realm of interhuman encounter, suffering is transformed or relieved through the recognition and confirmation of the person who is suffering. Rather than being unidirectional, dialogical encounter is mutual, with the doctor also receiving from the patient, within the normative limits of the therapeutic relationship. The cultural differences apparent in suffering between India and Australia were unified in the experience of dialogical encounter by doctors in both countries. This thesis reinforces the primacy of the doctor–patient relationship in the relief of suffering and encourages renewed attention to preserving the conditions for the flourishing of this relationship in modern medical practice. Key words: narrative, palliative care, suffering, physician-patient relationship, encounter, intersubjective

description: An update was performed of the classic experiments that led to the view that profile probability assignments are usually within a factor of 10 of each other. The data used in this study consist of 15 Identifiler loci collected from a wide range of forensic populations. Following Budowle et al. [1], the terms cognate and non-cognate are used. The cognate database is the database from which the profiles are simulated. The profile probability assignment was usually larger in the cognate database. In 44%-65% of the cases, the profile probability for 15 loci in the non-cognate database was within a factor of 10 of the profile probability in the cognate database. This proportion was between 60% and 80% when the FBI and NIST data were used as the non-cognate databases. A second experiment compared the match probability assignment using a generalised database and recommendation 4.2 from NRC II (the 4.2 assignment) with a proxy for the matching proportion developed using subpopulation allele frequencies and the product rule. The findings support that the 4.2 assignment has a large conservative bias. These results are in agreement with previous research results.

description: A recent report by the US President's Council of Advisors on Science and Technology (PCAST), (2016) has made a number of recommendations for the future development of forensic science. Whereas we all agree that there is much need for change, we find that the PCAST report recommendations are founded on serious misunderstandings. We explain the traditional forensic paradigms of match and identification and the more recent foundation of the logical approach to evidence evaluation. This forms the groundwork for exposing many sources of confusion in the PCAST report. We explain how the notion of treating the scientist as a black box and the assignment of evidential weight through error rates is overly restrictive and misconceived. Our own view sees inferential logic, the development of calibrated knowledge and understanding of scientists as the core of the advance of the profession.

description: DNA mixtures occur when two or more individuals contribute to a sample. Mixtures can vary greatly in complexity. Key variables are the number of donors, the template amount of each donor’s DNA, and the level of DNA degradation of each donor. There is little published material that we can find about behaviours relating to the limits of DNA mixture interpretation in the 90s and 00s. From our own personal knowledge, we recall that two-person mixtures were regularly examined in the 90s and that a ratio of 10:1 was considered a reasonable limit beyond which the profile was considered too complex to interpret. Three-person and higher order mixtures were seldom attempted.

description: The interpretation of DNA evidence can entail analysis of challenging STR typing results. Genotypes inferred from low quality or quantity specimens, or mixed DNA samples originating from multiple contributors, can result in weak or inconclusive match probabilities when a binary interpretation method and necessary thresholds (such as a stochastic threshold) are employed. Probabilistic genotyping approaches, such as fully continuous methods that incorporate empirically determined biological parameter models, enable usage of more of the profile information and reduce subjectivity in interpretation. As a result, software-based probabilistic analyses tend to produce more consistent and more informative results regarding potential contributors to DNA evidence. Studies to assess and internally validate the probabilistic genotyping software STRmix (TM) for casework usage at the Federal Bureau of Investigation Laboratory were conducted using lab-specific parameters and more than 300 single-source and mixed contributor profiles. Simulated forensic specimens, including constructed mixtures that included DNA from two to five donors across a broad range of template amounts and contributor proportions, were used to examine the sensitivity and specificity of the system via more than 60,000 tests comparing hundreds of known contributors and non-contributors to the specimens. Conditioned analyses, concurrent interpretation of amplification replicates, and application of an incorrect contributor number were also performed to further investigate software performance and probe the limitations of the system. In addition, the results from manual and probabilistic interpretation of both prepared and evidentiary mixtures were compared. The findings support that STRmix (TM) is sufficiently robust for implementation in forensic laboratories, offering numerous advantages over historical methods of DNA profile analysis and greater statistical power for the estimation of evidentiary weight, and can be used reliably in human identification testing. With few exceptions, likelihood ratio results reflected intuitively correct estimates of the weight of the genotype possibilities and known contributor genotypes. This comprehensive evaluation provides a model in accordance with SWGDAM recommendations for internal validation of a probabilistic genotyping system for DNA evidence interpretation.

description: Stochastic geometry models are used to study wireless networks, particularly cellular phone networks, but most of the research focuses on the typical user, often ignoring atypical events, which can be highly disruptive and of interest to network operators. We examine atypical events when a unexpected large proportion of users are disconnected or connected by proposing a hybrid approach based on ray launching simulation and point process theory. This work is motivated by recent results [12] using large deviations theory applied to the signal-to-interference ratio. This theory provides a tool for the stochastic analysis of atypical but disruptive events, particularly when the density of transmitters is high. For a section of a European city, we introduce a new stochastic model of a single network cell that uses ray launching data generated with the open source RaLaNS package, giving deterministic path loss values. We collect statistics on the fraction of (dis)connected users in the uplink, and observe that the probability of an unexpected large proportion of disconnected users decreases exponentially when the transmitter density increases. This observation implies that denser networks become more stable in the sense that the probability of the fraction of (dis)connected users deviating from its mean, is exponentially small. We also empirically obtain and illustrate the density of users for network configurations in the disruptive event, which highlights the fact that such bottleneck behaviour not only stems from too many users at the cell boundary, but also from the near-far effect of many users in the immediate vicinity of the base station. We discuss the implications of these findings and  outline possible future research directions.

description: This thesis is a collection of ethnographic studies of ways in which governments and other public authorities amongst the western Dinka and Nuer (South Sudan) have directly or indirectly remade the moral boundaries of lethal violence during times of war and peace. The thesis goes beyond discussing the causes of specific national episodes of armed conflict in South Sudan but instead pays attention to the normative regimes of lethal violence that span across times of war and peace. I echo those who have challenged the assumption of a rupture between times of war and peace, and additionally assert that normative and legal regimes made during times of ‘peace’ can shape modes and patterns of war.

 The thesis argues that governments, chiefs and Nuer prophets have all tried to build their own authority through their governance of the moral, legal and spiritual consequences of lethal violence. Different public authorities have contested and coopted each other’s regimes. Governments, chiefs and Nuer prophets have played powerful but contrasting roles in interpreting and remaking the moral and legal limits of lethal violence. The thesis specifically looks at the examples of the remaking of landscapes and laws as ways in which moral boundaries have been reshaped and materially embedded. The doctorate focuses on the tumultuous 2005 – 2015 period, but also draws on histories dating back to the 19th Century.

description: The introduction of probabilistic DNA interpretation systems has made it possible to evaluate many profiles that previously (under a manual interpretation system) were not. These probabilistic systems have been around for a number of years and it is becoming more common that their use within a laboratory has spanned at least one technology change. This may be a change in laboratory hardware, the DNA profiling kit used, or the manner in which the profile is generated. Up until this point, when replicates DNA profiles are generated, that span a technological change, the ability to utilise all the information in all replicates has been limited or non-existent. In this work we explain and derive the models required to evaluate (what we term) multi-kit analysis problems. We demonstrate the use of the multi-kit feature on a number of scenarios where such an analysis would be desired within a laboratory. Allowing the combination of profiling data that spans a technological change will further increase the amount of DNA profile information produced in a laboratory that can be evaluated.

Type material. Male holotype from Namibia, Keetmanshoop, Khabus 146, 26°17’S 18°14’E, 7 December 1987 – 17 January 1988, N. Olivier leg., deposited in SMN 40749. Paratypes: 1 male from same locality as holotype, 28°18’S 18°13’E, 14 April 1988, N. Olivier leg., (SMN 42020); 1 female from Namibia, Mariental, Berseba 170, 25°12’S 18°03’E, 7–29 November 1992, E. Marais leg., (SMN 42879).
Etymology. The specific name refers to the type locality, noun in apposition.
Diagnosis. Purcelliana khabus sp. nov. resembles P. kamaseb sp. nov. in having the carapace reddish-brown and strongly rugose (Figs 26A, B), and by the male palp with the embolus curved retrolaterally (Figs 32B, 33B). The males are distinguished by the palps with vRTA rounded in ventral view (pointed in P. kamaseb sp. nov.) and by the dRTA bent dorsally (ventrally in P. kamaseb sp. nov.) (Figs 33B, C); females are distinguished from P. kamaseb by the epigyne with V-shaped copulatory openings converging (diverging in P. kamaseb sp. nov.) and by the posterior-median depression without longitudinal grooves (present in P. kamaseb sp. nov.) (Fig. 33D). Both males and females are markedly smaller than those of P. kamaseb sp. nov.

description: H-d true testing is a way of assessing the performance of a model, or DNA profile interpretation system. These tests involve simulating DNA profiles of non-donors to a DNA mixture and calculating a likelihood ratio (LR) with one proposition postulating their contribution and the alternative postulating their noncontribution. Following Turing it is possible to predict that "The average LR for the H-d true tests should be one" [1]. This suggests a way of validating softwares. During discussions on the ISFG software validation guidelines [2] it was argued by some that this prediction had not been sufficiently examined experimentally to serve as a criterion for validation. More recently a high profile report [3] has emphasised large scale empirical examination. A limitation with H-d true tests, when non-donor profiles are generated at random (or in accordance with expectation from allele frequencies), is that the number of tests required depends on the discrimination power of the evidence profile. If the H-d true tests are to fully explore the genotype space that yields non-zero LRs then the number of simulations required could be in the 10 s of orders of magnitude (well outside practical computing limits). We describe here the use of importance sampling, which allows the simulation of rare events to occur more commonly than they would at random, and then adjusting for this bias at the end of the simulation in order to recover all diagnostic values of interest. Importance sampling, whilst having been employed by others for H-d true tests, is largely unknown in forensic genetics. We take time in this paper to explain how importance sampling works, the advantages of using it and its application to H-d true tests. We conclude by showing that employing an importance sampling scheme brings H-d true testing ability to all profiles, regardless of discrimination power.
