description: This study places Gustave Flaubert’s play, La Tentation de saint Antoine, within his larger oeuvre. It presents an overview of fourth-century Alexandria, Egypt, of St. Anthony, which is the historical setting for the play. Next, it explores the nineteenthcentury Paris and France of Gustave Flaubert. Finally, it attempts to identify nineteenthcentury French cults or religious movements, which may have prompted Flaubert to have chosen to feature fourth-century gnostic heretics so prominently in this play.

description: Shear thickness fluid (STF) is considered an ideal filler to enhance the mechanical behaviour of in-plane honeycomb due to its special rheological properties. In order to investigate the dynamic compressive behaviour of STF-filled honeycomb, a comparative study between a STF-filled honeycomb and an empty honeycomb is numerically carried out after the fluid-structure coupled model has been validated against experimental testings. It is shown that the addition of STF in the honeycomb cells results in significant improvement in the energy absorption of the STF-filled honeycomb, which in turn, effectively prevents the premature collapse of the honeycomb cell walls. Furthermore, a parametric study of STF-filled honeycomb is conducted to investigate the contributions of each component to the total energy. It is found that the honeycomb plastic deformation is the predominant mechanism of energy absorption during impact, whilst the proportion of viscous energy contribution to the total energy is significantly reduced when the honeycomb wall thickness is increased. Additionally, the mean crushing force of STF-filled honeycomb has a power law relation to the honeycomb wall thickness for each specific loading velocity. Moreover, the mean crushing force contributed by STF is proportional to loading velocity and the increase in velocity significantly improves the percentage of viscous energy to the total energy. Meanwhile, optimal honeycomb thickness and weight fraction of STF are crucial to avoid earlier plastic densification of the honeycomb during the loading process. The results of this paper provide useful insights for future design and optimization of STF-filled structures.

description: Australian pre-service teachers (PSTs) increasingly find themselves in classrooms where students have a diversity of backgrounds, which can lead to questions about the PST’s own place identity and how much of this identity they should disclose to students. This article explores how seven PSTs engage with their own sense of place identity when responding to the prompt: “What do you say when people ask you where you are from?” The findings bring to the fore absences of critical reflection from PSTs about the importance of their own place identity, a reluctance to talk about PST place identity in school contexts, and tensions created by a mismatch between PST place identity and professional identity. The cases presented in this article provide a starting point for opening discussions about the intersections between place identity and professional identity.

description: © The Author(s) 2020. Opioid overdose deaths are a major health issue in Australia and around the world. Programmes to provide opioid consumers with ‘take-home’ naloxone to reverse overdose exist internationally, but uptake by mainstream health services and consumers remains inconsistent. Researchers have identified a range of important educational, training and logistical impediments to take-home naloxone uptake and distribution, yet they have focused less on the social dynamics that can enhance or limit access, such as stigma. In this article, we also explore impediments to uptake, drawing on qualitative interview data gathered for an Australian research project on take-home naloxone. Mobilising a performative approach to stigma, we argue that overdose and prevention are shaped by the social dynamics of stigma and, as such, responsibility for dealing with overdose, as with take-home naloxone, should also be considered social (i.e. shared among peers, the public, communities and governments). Our interview data illuminate the various ways in which addiction stigma limits the possibilities and capacities of take-home naloxone and overdose prevention. First, we focus on how stigma may impede professional information provision about take-home naloxone by limiting the extent to which it is presented as a matter of interest for all opioid consumers, not just those who consume opioids illicitly. Second, we explore how stigma may limit the scale-up and expansion of programmes and access points. From here, we focus on how stigma co-constitutes the politics of overdose and prevention, rendering take-home naloxone ill-suited to many social settings of overdose. In closing, we point out that stigma is not just a post hoc impediment to access to and use of take-home naloxone but is central to opioid overdose production itself, and to effective prevention. While take-home naloxone is an excellent life-saving initiative, uncritically valorising it may divert attention from broader goals, such as the de-stigmatisation of drug consumption through decriminalisation, and other ambitious attempts to reduce overdose.
title: The U.S. Congress’ Political Construction of “Child Trafficking” as a Global Social Problem, 1999-2013

description: This thesis describes how “child trafficking” has only recently been constructed as a global social problem by the U.S. Congress (with strong influences from intergovernmental organizations), even though it has been around for decades. This thesis is not an attempt to provide a solution to eradicating this problem, but rather it is an attempt to provide insight into what was occurring during 1999 and 2013 that caused the U.S. Congress to keep changing its perspective on child trafficking and its relevance. It also discusses the need for social institutions to recognize that traffickers are not the only actors that permit the progression of the trafficking trade, but rather that there are other contributing factors that have not been recognized as facilitators of this practice. In the process of researching and writing this thesis, I have used a social constructionist approach to analyze Congressional hearings, Government bills and reports, international organizations’ publications, and scholarly research that have helped me to better understand how the U.S. Congress politically constructed “child trafficking” as a specifically “global” social problem between the years of 1999 and 2013.

description: In his study on the relationship between “Oil, Islam, and Women,” Michael L. Ross concludes that gender inequality in Arab states is influenced by oil rather than Islam.1 This is a captivating argument to me as a female from energy-rich Qatar who is most familiar with the legal rights granted to women. Throughout this paper, I challenge Ross‟ conclusions based on components of Sharia, and argue that Islam, as a basis for “Bedouin biases” is indeed the central cause for “gendered citizenship.”2 Further, reform is taking place in some countries as a result, rather than in spite, of oil revenues.

description: Rangelands are an important part of our planet, they cover between 30 and 70% of the world’s land, and are vital for providing economic value, biodiversity, and ecosystem services. The global issue of rangeland degradation, exacerbated by climate change and human activities, highlights the need for robust monitoring and sustainable management practices. In Uzbekistan, rangelands lands constitute about 50% of the country's area and play a crucial role in livestock production. However, overgrazing, and poor management have led to severe degradation, with increasing prevalence of unpalatable and harmful plant species, resulting in diminished rangeland productivity and accelerated desertification.

In Uzbekistan, a recent research project employed both traditional and remote sensing methods to evaluate soil parameters and biomass, offering valuable insights for sustainable land use. One of the main goals was to participate in fieldwork with the GróLind team around Reykjavík, and this provided invaluable hands-on experience. GróLind Iceland's program focuses on sustainable land management and uses several methods to monitor pasture health. By joining their field workers, experience was gained with the various tools and techniques used in monitoring.

description: Over the last few decades, the proliferation of the Internet of Things (IoT) has produced an overwhelming flow of data and services, which has shifted the access control paradigm from a fixed desktop environment to dynamic cloud environments. Fog computing is associated with a new access control paradigm to reduce the overhead costs by moving the execution of application logic from the centre of the cloud data sources to the periphery of the IoT-oriented sensor networks. Indeed, accessing information and data resources from a variety of IoT sources has been plagued with inherent problems such as data heterogeneity, privacy, security and computational overheads. This paper presents an extensive survey of security, privacy and access control research, while highlighting several specific concerns in a wide range of contextual conditions (e.g., spatial, temporal and environmental contexts) which are gaining a lot of momentum in the area of industrial sensor and cloud networks. We present different taxonomies, such as contextual conditions and authorization models, based on the key issues in this area and discuss the existing context-sensitive access control approaches to tackle the aforementioned issues. With the aim of reducing administrative and computational overheads in the IoT sensor networks, we propose a new generation of Fog-Based Context-Aware Access Control (FB-CAAC) framework, combining the benefits of the cloud, IoT and context-aware computing; and ensuring proper access control and security at the edge of the end-devices. Our goal is not only to control context-sensitive access to data resources in the cloud, but also to move the execution of an application logic from the cloud-level to an intermediary-level where necessary, through adding computational nodes at the edge of the IoT sensor network. A discussion of some open research issues pertaining to context-sensitive access control to data resources is provided, including several real-world case studies. We conclude the paper with an in-depth analysis of the research challenges that have not been adequately addressed in the literature and highlight directions for future work that has not been well aligned with currently available research.
Recent bicycle helmet designs and directions for future research: A comprehensive review from material and structural mechanics aspects

description: Cycling becomes more and more popular for recreation, exercising and commuting in many countries. Despite the popularity of cycling, it often comes with high level of risk. Conventional bicycle helmets, with expanded polystyrene foam (EPS) liners, can effectively mitigate impact by linear acceleration. However, there has been an urgent call for further improvement in bicycle helmets, as rotational acceleration has been found to be more dominant in severe head injuries. Recent advancements in manufacturing technologies have enabled various novel conceptual ideas and designs of bicycle helmets, which are previously deemed impracticable due to complexities in structures and materials, to become feasible. There are various bicycle helmet designs in terms of structures and materials used in both the helmet shell and liner, targeting at reducing both linear and rotational acceleration. Moreover, inspired by biological structures in nature, bio-inspired structures have been developed rapidly with excellent energy absorption capacity. As a piece of protective equipment, Bicycle helmet is a representative example where researchers are attempting to apply bio-inspired structures. The objective of the paper is to review the development of bicycle helmets and recent exploration for improvement. This includes the history of bicycle helmets, current test standards, designs of conventional bicycle helmets and the latest research (e.g. material replacement and novel structures), as well as application of bio-inspired structures to helmets. This review also identifies the limitations of current designs and standards, and challenges for future investigations.

description: Patterns in gene expression data conserved across multiple independent disease studies are likely to represent important molecular events underlying the disease. We present a novel graphical model learning approach, INSPIRE, to extract highly coherent and biologically relevant modules of co-expressed genes and the dependencies among the modules from multiple expression datasets that may contain different sets of genes. INSPIRE addresses five big challenges:

	INSPIRE enables use of multiple datasets that are not “synchronized” due to discrepancies between which genes are measured (e.g., platform-specific differences).

	Combining datasets leads to increased power to detect reliable patterns in expression data because of a greater pooled sample size.

	Modeling expression data in a much lower-dimensional space results in more power to learn patterns, even when the number of genes is much greater than the sample size – the norm for gene expression data.

	INSPIRE identifies robust (i.e. conserved across datasets) modules and module dependencies.

	INSPIRE naturally models the module dependencies capturing more complex interactions among pathways, cell populations, or other biologically driven modules

Through extensive simulated and real data analysis, we demonstrate INSPIRE is a great practical tradeoff between model complexity and model parsimony when understanding biological pathways. We show that INSPIRE infers more accurate models than existing methods to extract low-dimensional representation of expression data. Applying INSPIRE to nine ovarian cancer datasets followed by experimental validation leads to a new marker and potential driver of tumor-associated stroma, HOPX, whose module suggests a previously unknown mechanism underlying tumor-associated stroma.

Hopefully the development and redevelopment will be planned to permit such a city center to bring excitement and vitality to Reston and provide easy access from other communities in the corridor. Handsomely designed open space will be an essential component. Cultural offerings – in both performing and visual arts -- must be assured, not only to contribute to the vitality of animation around the clock but to draw new customers to Reston restaurants and shops.
Theoretical investigation of main-group element hydride insertion into phosphorus-heterocyclic carbenes (PHCs)

description: Initial reports of ring expansion reactions (RER) of N-heterocyclic carbenes (NHCs) with main-group element hydrides have led to several synthetic and theoretical investigations, which include reports of insertion by Be, B, Al, Si, and Zn hydrides. The RERs generally lead to insertion of the heteroatom into the endocyclic C-N bond with formation of an expanded heterocyclic ring. Following the recent isolation of a P-heterocyclic carbene (PHC), here we report results from a computational study (RI-SCS-MP2/def2-TZVP//M06-2X/def2-TZVP) of RERs with a series of PHCs for the ring-insertion of silicon (SiH4, SiH2Ph2) and boron (BH3, BH2NMe2) hydrides. In order to explore the roles of both electronic and steric effects on PHCs and their reactivity, a series of P-substituent PHCR (R = H, Me, Ph, and bulky Ar groups) were investigated. Bulky R groups serve to maximise ring planarity and the σ-donating capability of the PHC. For RER, the PHC analogues exhibit facile initial hydride transfer from the main-group hydrides to the carbene carbon, with barriers that are substantially lower than with NHCs. However, the full ring insertion mechanisms for PHCs are, in general, kinetically unfavourable due to a large barrier associated with the ring-expansion step. While bulky P-substituents maximise heterocycle planarity towards that of NHCs, the RER reactivity with bulky PHCs does not reflect that of an NHC.

description: This journal is © The Royal Society of Chemistry. Serial femtosecond crystallography (SFX) methods used at X-ray free electron lasers (XFELs) offer a range of new opportunities for structural biology. A crucial component of SFX experiments is sample delivery. Microfluidic devices can be employed in SFX experiments to precisely deliver microcrystals to the X-ray beam and to trigger molecular dynamics via rapid mix-and-inject measurements. Here, for the first time, we have developed a process based on high-resolution photolithography using SU8 on glass to fabricate microfluidic mix-and-inject devices. In order to characterise these devices a broad range of flow rates are used and the mixing and jetting response of the devices monitored. We observe that a stable jet is formed using these devices when injecting DI-water. Three different jetting regimes, liquid column, ribbon, and cylindrical jet, were observed. Furthermore, fluorescence experiments confirm that rapid and uniform mixing of the two injected solutions is possible using these devices indicating that they could be used to probe molecular dynamics on sub-microsecond timescales.

Well, my guess is that a vast number of Virginia adults have been guilty of the same conduct without suspecting that the Virginia Code branded them as criminals. The Virginia House of Delegates in its 2004 session passed a bill which would have repealed this section of the Code, but the Senate never took it up. Then, last month, the Supreme Court of Virginia came to our rescue. In an opinion by Justice Elizabeth B. Lacy, the court ruled that Section 18.2-344 violated the due process clause of the Fourteenth Amendment of the U.S. Constitution. “We find no principled way to conclude that the specific act of intercourse is not an element of a personal relationship between unmarried persons or that the Virginia statute criminalizing intercourse between unmarried persons does not improperly abridge a personal relationship that is within the liberty interest of persons to choose.” Martin v.

description: In this paper, the bending performances of sandwich panels with corrugated triangular, honeycomb, aluminum foam, pyramidal truss, double sine corrugated (DSC), and 3D re-entrant auxetic cores are assessed and compared, both experimentally and numerically. Three-point bending experiments were performed on corrugated, honeycomb, aluminum foam, and truss core sandwich panels with identical face-sheets and core height. The experimental and numerical results compared well for panels with corrugated, honeycomb and truss cores. Parametric studies were subsequently performed, using ABAQUS, and three distinct modes of deformation were identified. The specific energy absorption (SEA) of the panels was found to increase with the core relative density; the one with a honeycomb core will be shown to have the greatest SEA, for the same core relative density, compared to the rests.

description: Body composition (the total amount of fat mass, lean mass, minerals and water that constitute the body) is an important measure for understanding an animal's physiology, ecology and behaviour. Traditional measures of body composition require the animal to either be placed under anaesthetic, which is invasive and can be high-risk, or be euthanised, preventing the ability to perform repeated measures on the same individual. We aimed to validate quantitative magnetic resonance (QMR) as a non-invasive measure of body composition by comparing QMR scans with chemical carcass analysis (CCA) in Gould's wattled bats (Chalinolobus gouldii). In addition, we compared a commonly used microbat body condition index (residuals of mass by forearm length) to CCA. We found that QMR is an accurate method of estimating body condition in Gould's wattled bats after calibration with regression equations, and the condition index could accurately predict lean and water mass but was a poor predictor of fat mass. Using accurate, non-invasive, repeatable measures of body condition may have important implications for ecological research in the face of changing environments.

title: La escritura como resistencia en las autobiografías de Juan Francisco Manzano y Omar Ibn-Said

description: Manifestándose en huidas, cimarronaje, rebeldías organizadas hasta a los minuciosos actos de atrasar los tiempos del trabajo en las plantaciones, el tema de la resistencia por esclavos ocupa un papel significativo a lo largo de la historia de la esclavitud en las Américas. Esta tesis compara dos textos transatlánticos que hasta ahora no se han examinado por su valor literario a través del cual construye una resistencia literaria: Autobiografía de un esclavo (1835) de Juan Francisco Manzano (1797-1853) y Life (1831) de Omar Ibn-Said (1770-1864). En particular, se analizan las estrategias narrativas que llevan a los autores a cumplir con una contra narrativa ocultada en el uso de un lenguaje ambiguo y mecanismo de narración que vela y desvela el ingenio intelectual de dos autores extraordinarios. La comparación subraya no sólo las diferencias y las semejanzas con las cuales ambos manifiestan su resistencia sino cómo corroboran y producen una nueva forma de enfrentarse con el sistema dominante. La escritura como herramienta de resistencia provee una oportunidad de reconsiderar el tema de la resistencia en el ámbito académico, en específico en el campo literario, que sigue poniendo en segundo plano las experiencias de individuos africanos o afro-caribeños con sus excepcionales historias y contribuciones socioculturales y políticas.

description: Little is known about how the amount of treatment a person with aphasia receives impacts aphasia recovery following stroke, yet this information is vital to ensure effective treatments are delivered efficiently. Furthermore, there is no standard dose terminology in the stroke rehabilitation or aphasia literature. This scoping review aims to systematically map the evidence regarding dose in treatments for post-stroke aphasia and to explore how treatment dose is conceptualized, measured and reported in the literature. A comprehensive search was undertaken in June 2019. One hundred and twelve intervention studies were reviewed. Treatment dose (amount of treatment) has been conceptualized as both a measure of time and a count of discrete therapeutic elements. Doses ranged from one to 100 hours, while some studies reported session doses of up to 420 therapeutic inputs per session. Studies employ a wide variety of treatment schedules (i.e., session dose, session frequency, and intervention duration) and the interaction of dose parameters may impact the dose–response relationship. High dose interventions delivered over short periods may improve treatment efficiency while maintaining efficacy. Person- and treatment-level factors that mediate tolerance of high dose interventions require further investigation. Systematic exploration of dose–response relationships in post-stroke aphasia treatment is required.

description: Aaron Xia interviews his father, Qiang Xia, about household energy usage while growing up in China in the 1970s and 80s. Xia reflects on the differences in transportation, household energy usage, and cooking that he noticed when moving from a village to a city. He also discusses the country's transition from coal to natural gas, along with changes in the economy and in energy usage resulting from China's Open Door Policy in 1978. Xia reflects on his move to the United States in 2002, comparing the countries' economic development. Xia also discusses improvements in the standard of living in China within the past twenty years.
title:  Effect of Emergent Technologies on Aircraft Fuel Burn by Seat Class
Creators: name: Watkins, Lee Matthew
Publisher: name: Old Dominion University
publisherIdentifier: https://ror.org/04zjtrb98
publisherIdentifierScheme: ROR
Year: 2012

description: In this research, a set of advanced technologies collectively referred to as N+2 technologies, are applied to representative aircraft for seven different seat classes. This study will give a better understanding of which technologies will benefit aircraft of differing sizes compared to current studies which have focused on the fuel efficiency benefits of the N+l technologies for one size of aircraft. Technologies applied consist of hybrid wing body (HWB) platforms, boundary layer ingestion (BLI) engines, weight reducing technologies, hybrid laminar flow control (HLFC) and advanced engine technologies. The aircraft are modeled in Flight Optimization System (FLOPS), a program developed at NASA's Langley Research Center for rapid sizing of aircraft to produce detailed performance data. The technologies are applied, and compared to a baseline aircraft for each seat class. The resulting improvements are compared to previously published studies, and fuel efficiency goals are proposed for seven aircraft seat classes. The goals are used in conjunction with 2009 actual fuel usage and 2030 forecast fuel usage to determine an approximate two percent fuel savings in 2030 compared to 2009 if the proposed goals are achieved.

description: Older lesbian and gay people can face considerable marginalisation, which may affect their perceptions and experiences of accessing health and aged care services. To inform strategies promoting accessibility, this study aimed to investigate perceived barriers and facilitators to health and aged care service access among older lesbian and gay adults. A sample of 752 cisgender lesbian women and gay men aged 60 years and older living in Australia responded to questions on a broad range of potential barriers and facilitators to service access. Several barriers and facilitators were commonly reported, with some differences between the women and the men. LGBTI inclusiveness was among commonly reported concerns. A majority of participants reported a lack of LGBTI-inclusive service providers and professionals as a barrier. A majority also reported a perceived lack of professionals adequately trained and competent to work with LGBTI individuals, with significantly more women than men indicating this as a barrier. Almost all participants indicated LGBTI-inclusive mainstream services as a facilitator for access. In all, inclusiveness appears to be a key issue for service access among older lesbian and gay people, which may need to be further addressed by service providers and policy makers for improving service accessibility.

Fragile Buffer Zones. The Externalization Dynamism in the Field of Border Security and Possible Alternatives
Creators: name: Hilpert, Isabel
Publisher: name: Journal of Migration Studies
Year: 2022

description: For decades, the externalization of border control has been a central means of European border and migration policy. It is at the external border of the EU where the dynamism between the European center and the European peripheries manifests. The center of the EU externalizes border control tasks to the member states with European external borders, whereas the external border states and the EU as a whole externalize border control tasks to the periphery outside the Schengen borders. This principle is fragile, vulnerable and in large parts dysfunctional. Nevertheless, no alternative seems to be feasible for the EU. But a different way of dealing with those seeking protection, which would actually be in the EU's genuine interest, is certainly possible and is discussed in this article. Fragile Pufferzonen. Die Externalisierungsdynamik im europäischen Grenzschutz und mögliche Alternativen Die Externalisierung des Grenzschutzes ist seit Jahrzehnten ein zentraler Pfeiler der europäischen Grenz- und Migrationspolitik. An den Außengrenzen der EU manifestiert sich dabei die Dynamik zwischen dem europäischen Zentrum und den europäischen Peripherien. Das Zentrum der EU externalisiert Grenzkontrollaufgaben an die Mitgliedstaaten mit europäischen Außengrenzen, während die Außengrenzstaaten und die EU als Ganze Grenzkontrollaufgaben an die Peripherie außerhalb der Schengengrenzen externalisieren. Dieses Prinzip ist fragil, vulnerabel und in großen Teilen dysfunktional. Dennoch scheint für die EU keine Alternative dazu zu existieren. Ein anderer Umgang mit Schutzsuchenden, der letztlich auch im genuinen Interesse der EU wäre, ist aber durchaus möglich und wird in diesem Artikel diskutiert.
