(Figs. 143–148)
Type material: 1♂, holotype, 3♂, paratypes: 37.43S 145.41E VIC Mt Donna Buang 1200m N of Warburton 811 26.Jan–11.Feb. 1987 A.Newton & M.Thayer \ wet scler. Noth. cunn. FMHD #87 216 flight intercept (window) trap (ANIC).
Habitus. Oval, BL 2.5–2.6mm, BL/BW 1.6. Brown, head and centre of pronotum dark brown, margins diffusely reddish. Elytra with narrow dark brown sutural seam from the scutellum to near elytron midlength where the band curves outward and forms an anteriorly open semicircle ending at the elytral margin. The granular punctures on the forebody are fine, dense on the head, widely spaced on the pronotum. The dense normal punctures on the elytra are larger but comparatively fine. The semi-erect pilosity is light brown. The short antenna reaches the basal fifth to sixth of the elytron. The base is unmodified, the distal segments are about twice as long as wide.
Male. Middle of last sternite projecting a little, contour angular. Segments 8 and 9 as for the genus (Figs. 143– 146), except the Y-shaped S8 unusually large. Base of S9 not visible. Tegmen and parameres (Fig. 147) exceptionally strongly sclerotized, of unusual shape. Two separate basally slightly scooped curved sclerites converge, meet, and then widen and diverge again. The short apical portion of each bears 3 massive teeth between which rise fine hair-like structures. At the narrow meeting point each paramere has a medial extension connected to its counterpart by a membrane with some anteriorly directed paramedian spine-like sclerite. At this point they seem to be connected to membranes around the penis, details are unknown.
Penis (Fig. 148) long, slender, with parallel sides. The front of the pala is anteriorly shallowly excised and almost twice as wide as the caudal portion. The parameroids and the trigonium originate in the distal third. The trigonium is strongly sclerotized, from a transverse bracket-like base originates a long slender gently downcurved tip. The narrow apically slightly spatulate parameroids are straight and longer than the trigonium.
Female. Unknown.
Note. The species was taken together with N. donnabuangi and N. imitator whom it resembles in the brown elytral band. It differs by the very fine widely spaced pronotal granula, and of course by the exceptional genitalia.
Etymology. Latin horridus, awful, an allusion to the powerful claw-shaped parameres.

description: Resident Evil, the popular survival horror video game series, utilizes monstrous mutations of humans as the primary threat within its narratives. The nuances and patterns of these monsters are primarily defined by their genders. Though the series is typically known in digital, game, and film criticisms, I advocate we use methodologies from feminist rhetorics to discuss the monstrous creatures. Considerations of how such monsters, Bio Organic Weapons, alter or confirm to gender normativity can influence feminist rhetorical studies by diversifying the data sets the field explores and our understanding of gendered commentary for the rapidly growing population of women playing games. After a brief review of current feminist rhetorical scholarship and motivations, I’ll use domestic, temporal, motivational, and physical rhetorics to establish the pattern of gendered norms of ‘monsters’ in the franchise due to the commentary they offer on our culture and understanding of the world. Finally, I conclude with an overview of the growing community of women necessitating this study, adult women chased away from the violence of online discourses who turn to narrative based games like Resident Evil.

Ghost in the shell
Creators: name: Grubb, Rebecca
Publisher: name: No Publisher Supplied
Year: 2017

description: This project involved the research into the 1995 Ghost in the Shell. Drawing mainly from Donna Haraway, Judith Butler, Carl Silvio, Jane Chi Hyun Park, Sharalyn Orbaugh, Steven Culver, Steven T. Brown, Julie Clarke, and others, I apply cyborg theory and argue that the main character Motoko Kusanagi is a mechanized laborer for the state, exploited and dehumanized as a Japanese female cyborg who seeks purpose outside of the limitations of Section Nine, and her success in such an endeavor. Most others who have studied Ghost in the Shell focus mainly on gender, the body, or the film’s general message of technology integrating inevitably with humanity, but not Motoko’s individual journey as an exploited tool to a completely free individual, her mechanical nature humanizing her more so than any actual human character. The film shows the similarities between the mechanical and the human, and how dangerous it is to fear technological changes and evolution, to fear that it may escape our control—it already has, and we must embrace it, just as Motoko does, and becomes better for it.

description: Drone-based synthetic aperture radar (SAR) analysis offers a simple and efficient technique for acquiring observational data from various research areas. However, fundamental research on observation techniques, including the investigation of drone flight parameters, remains insufficient. This study focuses on improving the resolution of intensity images of a single-look complex (SLC) via drone-based SAR observations. By conducting experiments at different flight speeds and analysing the obtained SLC images, we demonstrated that higher drone speeds resulted in enhanced image resolution under the conditions investigated at flight speeds of ≤ 5 m s−1. A comparison with satellite SAR images highlighted the superior performance of drone-based SAR in capturing topographic features. The analysis also suggested that factors including trajectory deviation and Doppler rate affected the resolution and azimuth position. The simulation results supported the experimental findings on the relationship between drone speed and resolution. Our results emphasize the potential of drone-based SAR observations for monitoring slope failures and suggest the importance of the drone flight parameter selection. In the future, drone-based SAR is expected to produce intensity images of slopes and locate slope deformations associated with blasting for mining and earthquakes.

description: Positive Psychology at the workplace captures the active positive interventions that an employee and/or employer can implement to foster a healthier and happier work environment.  By focusing on elements of positive psychology such as work as meaning, positive emotions, character strengths, educational and professional development, job crafting, and work design, I have performed an integrative analysis of positive interventions that can be introduced at the workplace to create job satisfaction, resiliency, and human thriving.  Through scholarly research, I have analyzed factors that help employees flourish in the workplace, and identified how that impacts the overall success of their organization.  This paper explores the best and worst practices, as well as the effects those practices have on turnover rates, financial impacts, and how companies can avoid creating a toxic work environment.

description: A smart agricultural system is necessary for monitoring crop growth and stress conditions using near-ground-based remote sensing techniques. Crop growth can be estimated using several standard crop growth parameters. However, obtaining timed sequential data for observing leaf area index (LAI) is challenging, and normalized difference vegetation index (NDVI) estimation in crop fields requires the installation of sensors on frames structure that are taller than the crop. Canopy light transmittance (CLT) indicates the degree of decrease in the amount of light passing through some material. It was conventionally used to understand canopy radiative transfer. This study examined the viability of CLT as a novel crop parameter for monitoring crop growth conditions. The CLT, LAI, and NDVI of a garlic field were recorded for five years. The correlation between daily CLT and LAI was higher than that between NDVI and LAI. Thus, CLT has the potential to sequentially estimate crop LAI values, particularly for capturing the temporal patterns of LAI. In addition, like NDVI, CLT showed sensitivity in representing the canopy structure and the amount of biomass because CLT is conceptually related to the sky gap fraction. Thus, CLT has the potential to serve as a novel growth parameter for continuous crop growth monitoring.

Type material. HOLOTYPE male labelled “ Cuba. Matanzas, Cienaga de Zapata, Canal de los Patos, bajo turba a 5m de la orilla del canal, 18–IX–2001. Col: Pavel Valdés.”. PARATYPES (18), labelled as the holotype. The holotype and three paratypes are deposited in MNHC (registration number: 15.000635–8), four paratypes are in IESC, three paratypes are in UASM, and the remaining ones are in the author’s collection
Type locality: Zapata swamp is located in Matanzas province, Cuba. Within the area there is a canal, named “Canal de los Patos”, on the west side of the road to Girón Beach at about 7 km from the National Highway. The specimens were collected on the south shore of the canal at 600 m. from the road and about 5 m. from the shore line at 22° 25’29 N, 81° 08’ 52 W.
Etymology: The specific epithet is a patronymic, based on the Latinized surname of the fictional Don Quijote, immortalized in the famous novel "Don Quijote de la Mancha" written by Miguel de Cervantes Saavedra and first published in 1605. This species is named to commemorate the 400th anniversary of publication of this important piece of Spanish literature.

Distribution. Shiraz (Amsel 1961).
Remarks. This species was decribed by Amsel (1961) based on one male and one female collected in Shiraz, Fars Province. It was transferred to the genus Loxostege by Yepishin (2022). As stated by Amsel (1961), the phallus cmprises a bunch of fine cornuti (Amsel 1961: 397, 424). In the single examined male, the uncus and fibulae are exactly match with the illustration of Amsel (1961), but the cornuti form a small horn-shaped sclerotized plate distally with several scattered thin spines around it. Additionally, the distal edge of the phallus is distinctly crenate (Fig. 28A‒C). These features are not distinguishable in the photos of the holotype presented by Yepishin (2022) and neither is the shape of the juxta, which is clear in our examined male (Fig. 28A).

Whether reporting on Syrian refugees at the Hungarian-Serbian border, reflecting on his experimentations with sadomasochism, recounting a botched haircut at the hands of his six-year-old brother, or translating a musical written by his grandfather in a Soviet Gulag, the author grapples with the question: how does one discover nuance in personal heritage under the Manichean weight of a global atrocity like the Holocaust?
Inference of metabolic flux distributions from transcriptomic data
Creators: name: Kim, Min Kyung
Publisher: name: No Publisher Supplied
Year: 2017

description: Studying changes in the cellular metabolism is important to understand what a living cell does for survival in response to external or internal perturbations. Even though intracellular metabolic flux (i.e. reaction rate) distributions are desirable data to this end, it is challenging to directly quantify fluxes through methods such as metabolic flux analysis using stable isotope labeling.    Several computational methods thus have been developed to infer system-level and condition-specific intracellular metabolic flux distributions, which are difficult to measure, from transcriptomic data, which are far easier to obtain. While powerful in many settings, existing methods have several practical shortcomings, and it is unclear which method has the best accuracy in general due to limited validation against experimentally measured fluxes.   In this thesis, we describe two computational methods called E-Flux2 (E-Flux method combined with minimization of l2 norm) and SPOT (Simplified Pearson cOrrelation with Transcriptomic data), to be employed when a suitable biological objective is available and unavailable, respectively. Our method overcomes shortcomings of existing methods and combines desirable characteristics including applicability to a wide range of experimental conditions, production of a unique solution, fast running time, and the availability of a user-friendly implementation (at http://most.ccib.rutgers.edu/).    Most importantly, the predictive accuracy of our method was validated using the largest experimental dataset compiled to date, consisting of 43 experimental conditions of transcriptome measurements coupled with corresponding central carbon metabolic intracellular flux measurements (19 in Escherichia coli, 9 in Saccharomyces cerevisiae, 8 in Bacillus subtilis, 3 in Synechocystis sp. PCC 6803, 2 in Synechococcus sp. PCC 7002, and 2 in H4IIE rat hepatoma cell line). Our method provided as good as or better predictions than a representative sample of competing methods including pFBA (parsimonious flux balance analysis), in terms of the average of correlation between predicted and measured fluxes and of overall stability in predictions, especially in unicellular heterotrophic microorganisms. This makes our methods useful even in the absence of measured flux rates that allow some existing methods such as pFBA to be employed.   The goal of developing these computational tools is to better understand complex biological systems. Not only do the methods we developed contribute to advancing previous work, they have helped to answer biological research questions as well. In several collaborative research, our methods were used to understand the lipid accumulation mechanism of nitrogen-stressed Phaeodactylum tricornutum cells, verify the predictive power of a genome-scale metabolic model of the cyanobacterium Synechococcus sp. PCC 7002, and examine the metabolic impacts of RpiRc, a potent repressor of microbial toxins in Staphylococcus aureus.
Style chameleons

Publisher: name: No Publisher Supplied
Year: 2017

description: This study explores the phenomenon of “style-shifting,” characterized by students’ belief in their ability to readily adapt their writing style to suit the expectations, even idiosyncrasies, of a teacher. Specifically, it analyzes how English majors negotiate assigned papers as highly local rhetorical sites. Understanding to what extent style-shifting occurs reveals how students respond to teachers’ cues and instructional strategies, as well as how individual educational experiences combine to form concepts of disciplinary discourse as a whole. Writing studies scholarship predominantly ignores the role that style plays in the individuated and piecemeal character of learning disciplinary discourses. This study draws from the literature in several fields to understand the various theoretical approaches to “style” and writing pedagogy, as well as how and why students gain disciplinary expertise. Through interviews with literature professors and upper-level undergraduate English majors, as well as textual analysis of papers produced in their classrooms, the study uses a grounded theory methodology to examine the complex rhetorical network of teachers, students, and texts. Broadly, it finds that students do not enact the style shifts they imagine, revealing a burgeoning, but unconscious, awareness of disciplinary discourse conventions. The study constructs a bridge between scholarship on style pedagogy and writing in the disciplines, demonstrating that style can be a generative tool for understanding how students develop disciplinarity.

Type material: 1♂ holotype: “Lam.[ington] Nat. Pk., QLD. 28 Jan–3 Feb., 1963 G. Monteith” (QMSB, UQIC Reg. #88655).
Habitus. BL 2.6mm, BL/BW ~1.5. Broadly oval, flat. Dark brown, legs a little lighter. Structure as described for the genus. Both mandibles with a tooth, the one on the right side larger. Terminal segment of maxillary palpus missing. Flagellomeres barely twice as long as wide, widened towards apex, segments 10 and 11 missing.
Male. Segments 8 and 9 as for the genus, except S9 small, with two rounded pilose lobes. Basal portion narrow, with unpaired small apodeme (Figs. 149–152). Penis and tegmen thin and unusually long, curving ventrad. Penis with narrow elongate scoop-shaped pala (Fig. 154; very base missing). It supports an extremely short trigonium resembling an open mussel (Fig. 155), and rod-shaped, gently curved parameroids which are several times longer than the pala. Tegmen consisting of two long blade-like sclerites (Fig. 153). Base damaged, some connection between them may be missing. At about 1/3 of total length, each sclerite is on its medial face armed with a flat curved toothed appendage. Parameres with fine sensory pores, especially near the end.
Female. Unknown.
Note. The type is in poor shape. It had been pinned with a minuten pin and was slightly mildewed; it fell to pieces during study. The fragments are mounted on a card and 2 plastic slides on the same pin. Nothocyphon brevihamatus from the New England area in New South Wales has similarly long parameroids but in view of marked differences in other parts it is doubtful if it can be regarded as a close relative of N. longiphallus.
Etymology. The name describes the extraordinary length of the phallic complex.

description: This document highlights regional planning and development of the Hackensack Meadows. Eighteen municipalities have lands in the Hackensack Meadows. Regional planning and development of the Meadows will yield a greater total benefit to the area than would development by each of the municipalities acting on its own. But regional development might mean that high-yield types of development will be located in some municipalities and not in others.

Cheverella galapagensis Landry, in Landry et al., 2011: 645 - 648.
Material examined: 27 ♂, 49 ♀, as mentioned in original description, including the male holotype from Santa Cruz Island (CNC).
Diagnosis: There are no known species of Spilomelinae outside of Galápagos that have a similar wing pattern and colour (Landry et al., 2011). However, in the Galápagos Cheverella galapagensis (Fig. 9) is similar in wing pattern and colour to Agathodes galapagensis (Figs 2, 3), but Cheverella galapagensis is smaller (6.4- 10.3 mm, both sexes pooled), has a comparatively wider forewing, and a lighter, white hindwing.
Biology: The larva is a borer in the stems of the Galápagos endemic Tournefortia pubescens Hook. f. (Boraginaceae) (Landry et al., 2011). Based on specimens collected, it is known to fly between January and May, as well as in August, October, and November in variously pristine or anthropized habitats between the littoral zone and as far up as the rim of the volcano on Fernandina at 1341 m in elevation.
Distribution: Galápagos endemic, this species has been found on the islands of Fernandina, Isabela, San Cristóbal, Santa Cruz, and Santiago.
Remarks: The host plant, a Galápagos endemic, occurs on the islands on which Cheverella galapagensis has been recorded, but also on Floreana, Pinzón, and Wolf (Jaramillo Díaz & Guézou, 2015).

Type material: 1 ♂, holotype, Mossman Bluff Track 5–10km NW Mossman, N.Qld., 17–31 Dec 1988, Monteith, Thompson & ANZSES, Site 9, 1260m, flt. intercept (QM Reg.No. T227420); 1 ♂, paratype: Mossman Bluff 10km NW Mossman, N.Qld., 17–18 Dec 1988, 1100–1300m, Monteith & Thompson (QM Reg.No. T227419) (QMSB).
Habitus. BL 2.4mm, BL/BW ~1.6, elongate-oval, fairly convex. The pattern resembles N. lindensis, the dorsal side is yellow with a brown parasutural spot. Antennae short, flagellar segments slightly conical, not even twice as long as wide at apex. The punctation of the forebody is very fine, on the pronotum essentially only the spaced setal insertions are visible. Punctures on elytra normal, fine, separated by twice their own diameter, the yellow pilosity rather apparent.
Male. Segments 8 and 9 as for the genus (Figs. 156, 157). The penis is slender, the front end of the pala is rounded (Fig. 158). The trigonium inserts just beyond midlength. It is carrot-shaped with wide base narrowing in almost straight line, apex pointed. Raised cones stand in an irregular row along the side, the basal cones are largest, tooth-like and reach over the edge, growing finer towards the tip. The parameroids are closely appressed to the trigonium, straight, with obtuse tip and large outwardly directed triangular process near midlength. Immediately basally from trigonium and parameroids occur two crescent-shaped pale sclerites that are laterally connected to a slender forward-pointing strut. The parameres are connected by a strong arched bar-like tegmen (Fig. 159). Each paramere is a strong rod which widens abruptly a short distance from the base and is divided into 2−3 very large rigid spines and an elongate swelling beset with numerous teeth along its medial face. The largest teeth occur near the base of the swelling.
Female. Unknown.
Note. Resembles N. lindensis, N. ypsilon as well as N. armatus in habitus, but not in the genitalia.
Etymology. The name (the Latin noun naso, the nose) alludes to the nose-like triangular process on the parameroid.

America's sterilization laws
Creators: name: Malatesta, Christian
Publisher: name: No Publisher Supplied
Year: 2017

description: This Capstone project aims to investigate the barbaric sterilization laws that were practiced in America during the nineteenth and twentieth centuries by focusing on the Eugenics movement, ideals of the time period, the terrible sterilization practices, the victims, and their right for reparations. Many citizens of this country may not be aware that such laws ever existed and it is time to depict the truth about them. The topic of reparations can be applied to many different minority groups as well and it is important to understand that reparations should not be limited to a sum of money given to victims or a next of kin. I believe the topic of inclusion of all citizens, regardless of gender, race, social status, or mental capabilities, will always be a very current issue. Through electronic journal articles, books, and an interview with Belle Boggs, a writer and professor in the MFA program at North Carolina State University, I have compiled extensive information on the topic at hand. Through my experiences as a freelance journalism writer and editor, I have presented my findings as a news editorial examination.

Habitus. BL 2.7−2.8mm, BL/BW 1.7. Brown, pronotal disc darkest, head anteriorly reddish, scutellum and sutural interval with reddish tinge and lighter than remainder of elytra.
Male. Segments 8 and 9 (Figs. 160−162) as for the genus, S8 with large densely pilose lateral remnants of the plate. The penis is stout, the wide pala occupies half of the length (Figs. 163, 164). Remains of muscles fill much of the pala, its side sclerites are strong, the front edge is truncate or bluntly rounded. The penis widens much at the origin of trigonium and parameroids. The trigonium is a slender triangle with rounded basal edges, shallowly concave sides of the long distal portion, and obtuse slightly asperous tip. The angularly projecting base of the parameroids carries a slender caudal lobe whose externally serrate outer half is folded mediad and concealed at rest. There is no tegmen, the parameres are separate sinuous rods with blunt ends that lean closely against penis and parameroids (Fig. 164).
Female. Unknown.
Note. Separate parameres not connected by a tegmen occur also in other Australian marsh beetles (e.g., several Petrocyphon spp.). Therefore, the similarity in this detail between N. plicatus and the Nothocyphon amphora -group is assumed to have arisen independently.
Etymology. The longitudinally folded parameroids suggested the name, the Latin adjective plicatus, folded.

The effects of eye gaze on memory encoding
Creators: name: Miller, Dillon
Publisher: name: No Publisher Supplied
Year: 2017

description: The purpose of the present research is to further explore the relationship between social cues and memory. In particular, the influence of eye gaze on memory was examined. This is of interest because previous work has established a link between gaze cues and attention. Here, we take this a step further and examine whether memory is also impacted by eye gaze. Participants remembered word lists presented on a computer monitor. These words were presented against a background of a human face looking away from them, looking at them, or looking at them with closed eyes. By doing so, we tested how memory was affected by its embedding in a social context. The results indicate that direct gaze increases memory performance over averted gaze when tested through a recognition test. For recall, memory instead was best for words presented on a face with closed eyes. Thus, social context differentially affects memory for different depths of processing. These results are important because they further the literature for the effects of social cues on memory processing.

We other Chaucerians
Creators: name: Milligan, Richard T.
Publisher: name: No Publisher Supplied
Year: 2017

description: In an examination of modern adaptations of Chaucer, an understanding of Chaucer as an intertextual author and through a shared relationship with postmodern critical analyses of Chaucer‘s relevance today is integral in providing new diverse and inclusive perspectives into Chaucer’s The Canterbury Tales. By eschewing traditional adaptation studies methods of examining the fidelity of an adaptation towards its source material, the goal is to understand the adaptations as separate but equal works of art that help to make Chaucer more modern and more accessible for students who ascribe to a variety of marginalized identities. The Canterbury Tales directed by Jonathan Myerson and published by the British Broadcasting Company (BBC) employs female animators to offer feminist outlooks on Chaucer’s presentation of women with proto-feminist values, while also managing to explore the nature of masculinity through the tales of the Reeve and Miller. In the Italian filmmaker and poet Pier Paolo Pasolini’s adaptation I racconti di Canterbury, the author employs his queer perspectives on Chaucer’s tales and examines the dueling natures of social normalcy and deviancy to question the nature of a regressive society. In Marilyn Nelson’s adaptation, The Cachoeira Tales, she explores the nature of the pilgrimage through the experiences of a member of the African-American diaspora and uses Chaucer to create an African American history in the face of centuries of erasure of black identity. Each adaptation engages with postmodern Chaucerian critics and provides for new methods of understanding and relating to Chaucer in relation to growing student diversity on campuses across America, while destabilizing the privileged readings of Chaucer as a symbol of English nationalism.
Power vs. persuasion
Creators: name: Pardal, Vaani
Publisher: name: No Publisher Supplied
Year: 2017

description: A current controversy exists regarding the effects of open/expansive body postures on power-related outcomes. While some studies suggest that open postures make people feel and behave in a more empowered way (Carney et al., 2010), other studies challenge these findings (Ranehill et al., 2015). In the current study, I proposed that the meaning of the body posture depends on the context – whether people are being persuaded rather than persuading others. As such, I investigated the effects of open postures on both power and attitude change following persuasion. Two hundred participants were randomly assigned to hold either an open or closed body posture, while simultaneously being exposed to either a strong or a weak message in favor of introducing a junk food tax. . I measured their attitudes towards junk food tax before and after the persuasive message to obtain a measure of the degree to which their attitude changes following persuasion. I proposed two competing hypotheses- if open body postures embody only power, then participants will be more confident in their own thoughts and will be less persuaded by the message irrespective of its strength. On the contrary, if open body postures embody openness to persuasion under certain circumstances, we will see a greater attitude change in favor of the strong argument (vs. weak argument). When looking at the change in attitude pre-post persuasion, findings revealed that participants exposed to a strong message were less likely to change their attitude if they held an open vs. closed posture, a finding that is more consistent with the power rather than persuasion explanation. However, neither subjective feelings of power nor openness mediated the relationship between posture and Attitude Change. Implications for both the power and persuasion literature are discussed.
