description: The musical group CCCP, also known as "Faithful to the Line", has been characterised by a particularly strong consistency in its artistic project and image, drawing inspiration from many elements (Filo-Sovietism, Eastern cultures of the Middle and Far East, and the popular culture of Aemilia, their place of origin). In its early years, the band was part of a diverse group of activists, artists and bohemians influenced by the continental European punk subculture, all engaged in a multidisciplinary effort to realise the same idea of an alternative subcultural expression, deeply rooted in the intention to construct a distinction based on a reconfiguration of punk's communicative détournement in a different cultural context. CCCP's interpretation of punk can be described, in Dick Hebdige's terms, as a spectacular construction of disparate elements of contemporary popular culture, arranging a series of imaginary relationships in new and original ways. Such a reconfiguration finds in their music both an opportunity for aggregation and a privileged means of communication. In this article I will show how their artistic project and its coherence echoes in their songs, and how an expansion of their stylistic language corresponds historically to an increasing concentration on music as their primary interest within the overall industrial asset of contemporary popular culture, which - in the end - will also bring the project to its conclusion and end.

Evolving communities, evolving faiths: a three-article series on hispanics and religion in North Carolina
Creators: name: Hendershot, Eva
Publisher: name: The University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill University Libraries
Year: 2010

description: The Hispanic population in North Carolina grew 80 percent in 2000-08, mostly because of immigration. Church is at the center of many of these Hispanic immigrants' lives. In three long-form news articles, this thesis explores the dynamic relationship between Hispanics and their churches. The market for these articles is North Carolina news publications. The first article is about St. Julia's Catholic Church in Siler City. It explores the challenge of integration and the church's expanded role in Hispanic members' lives. The second article tells the story of St. Julia's Charismatic Renewal group and gives background on the movement in the Raleigh diocese. The third article discusses Hispanic conversion to evangelical faiths through the story of La Iglesia Bautista Comunidad en Cristo, a Southern Baptist Hispanic Mission in Graham, N.C. Sidebars about funding struggles for Catholic Hispanic ministries and the stances of major denominations on immigration reform accompany the articles.
The importance of different sources of social support on the associations between racial/ethnic discrimination experiences and worries on adolescent internalizing and externalizing symptoms

description: Following a risk and resilience framework, the current study examined whether different sources of social support moderate the associations between racial/ethnic discrimination experiences and worries on adolescent internalizing, and externalizing symptoms among a sample of Black and Hispanic adolescents. The potential modifying role of race/ethnicity was also explored. The current study used the third wave of data from the Project on Human Development in Chicago Neighborhoods (PHDCN). The total sample included 835 self-identified Black and Hispanic adolescents (M [subscript age] = 15.2, SD = 1.58; 50.9 % female, 49.1% male). Using path analysis and multiple group analysis via Mplus (version 8.6), results showed that racial/ethnic discrimination experiences were associated with both adolescents internalizing and externalizing symptoms, whereas racial/ethnic discrimination worries were associated with only adolescent internalizing symptoms. There were no significant multigroup differences by sources of support or race/ethnicity. Although the current study did not find support for the protective model of resilience, there was some support for the compensatory model of resilience.
PHARMACOGENOMIC CONSIDERATIONS FOR PRESCRIBING THE ANTIDEPRESSANT FLUOXETINE: A REVIEW IN PERSONALIZED MEDICINE

description: The worthwhile intellectual synthesis proposing that nothing makes sense except in light of context has also revolutionized pharmaceutical science putting patients’ genomic context at the center of attention in a rapidly developing area known as pharmacogenomics. As a result, an alternative approach to medicine referred to as personalized medicine was born considering the individual-specific genomic context the hardcore of any diagnostic, prognostic, and therapeutic intervention. Therefore, a considerable need has been created to address questions based on the underlying genotypic characteristics of patients. Depressive spectrum disorders are a cluster of closely-linked psychiatric disorders with a growing incidence rate across the world. Although there are multiple therapeutic approaches to treating depressive spectrum disorders, pharmacotherapy is still considered one of the most effective strategies. Among the therapeutic antidepressant drugs, selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors (SSRIs) are most widely prescribed. Fluoxetine (FLX) is a highly valued SSRI which is broadly ordered by psychiatric practitioners to treat miscellaneous psychological disorders, including depressive spectrum disorders, anxiety spectrum disorders, and obsessive compulsive disorder. Although FLX therapy can bring about a positive therapeutic effect on a considerable proportion of depressed patients, it does not elicit a favorable response in 30-40% of patients owing to the presence of genomic variations negatively affecting the pharmacokinetic and pharmacodynamic characteristics of this medication. This challenging fact has led us to conduct current research on how genotypic variations at the inter-individual level can heavily affect the response to FLX therapy.
Some URLs Are Immortal, Most Are Ephemeral
Creators: name: Garg, Kritika
Publisher: name: Zenodo
Year: 2024

description: "How long does a web page last?" is often answered with "44 to 100 days," but the web has changed since those numbers were first given in 1996. We examined how webpage lifespans have evolved using a sample of 27.3 million URLs archived from 1996 to 2021 by the Internet Archive (IA).

Only 35% of URLs remained active in 2023, indicating significant web inactivity. Our preliminary analysis suggests that these numbers are not inflated with soft 404s and other phenomena. We encountered DNS failures for 30% of 7 million unique domains. Surprisingly, almost half of the URLs initially archived in 1996–2000 were still active in 2023, suggesting the longevity of some early URLs. Sites like nasa.gov continue to exist. Conversely, some URLs had lifespans that defied measurement. Nearly 30% had short lifespans, with only one archived page or no "200 OK" mementos, indicating brief existence or limited archival interest.

The average lifespan of a web page in our dataset is 5.1 years and a median of 2.3 years.. However, this average conceals the bimodal nature of root URLs, where 10% persist for less than a year, and nearly 20% thrive for over 20 years, resulting in a median lifespan of 8.8 years. Deep links have a median lifespan of 1.3 years.

We examined web page half-life, i.e., the time it takes for half of the pages to disappear. Root URLs had a half-life of nine years compared to one year for deep links. URLs from different decades exhibited varying lifespans: 1990s URLs had a half-life of 15-20 years, early 2000s URLs had 6-7 years, and URLs from 2003 to 2021 had 6 months to 3 years.

Using the IA as a source for sample URLs provides the only realistic, public option to study the evolution of the web at this scale and duration. However, well-known classes of pages are not present in the Wayback Machine, and our findings apply only to publicly archivable pages. They provide a nuanced understanding of web page longevity, emphasizing that while some URLs survive a long time, most have an ephemeral lifespan.

description: We establish a characterization of alternating links in terms of definite spanning surfaces. We apply it to obtain a new proof of Tait's conjecture that reduced alternating diagrams of the same link have the same crossing number and writhe. We also deduce a result of Banks and Hirasawa-Sakuma about Seifert surfaces for special alternating links. The appendix, written by Juhász and Lackenby, applies the characterization to derive an exponential time algorithm for alternating knot recognition.

A close correlation between the classical Lyapunov exponents and the quantum Participation Ratio of coherent states on the eigenenergy basis is exhibited for different points in the phase space. It is also shown that the Participation Ratio scales linearly with the number of atoms in chaotic regions, and with its square root in the regular ones.

description: These 'bitesize' resources pull together recommendations from the UKRI Net Zero DRI Scoping Project on specific key topics into one short resource.

Currently, there is little or no requirement for researchers to consider the climate and sustainability impacts of their work. Furthermore, in most cases, staff do not have the tools and knowledge at hand to tackle this. In this resource, we explore how policies and requirements for net zero should be paired with adequate training to not just increase awareness and understanding of the implications of climate change and the net zero policy, but also to provide technical competence to deliver change.

description: This article considers the problem of delay optimal bundling of the input symbols into transmit packets in the entry point of a wireless sensor network such that the link delay is minimized under an arbitrary arrival rate and a given channel error rate. The proposed policy exploits the variable packet length feature of contemporary communications protocols in order to minimize the link delay via packet length regularization. This is performed through concrete characterization of the end-to-end link delay for zero error tolerance system with First Come First Serve (FCFS)queuing discipline and Automatic Repeat Request (ARQ) retransmission mechanism. The derivations are provided for an uncoded system as well as a coded system with a given bit error rate. The proposed packetization policy provides an optimal packetization interval that minimizes the end-to-end delay for a given channel with certain bit error probability. This algorithm can also be used for near-optimal bundling of input symbols for dynamic channel conditions provided that the channel condition varies slowly over time with respect to symbol arrival rate. This algorithm complements the current network-based delay-optimal routing and scheduling algorithms in order to further reduce the end-to-end delivery time. Moreover, the proposed method is employed to solve the problem of energy efficiency maximization under an average delay constraint by recasting it as a convex optimization problem.

description: The paper analyzes the persona and wardrobe of Annarella (Antonella Giudici), the showgirl and model who has been the female member of the Italian punk band CCCP – Fedeli alla linea for decades. Through her clothes and style, the paper discusses how she has tackled the many contradictions associated with gender and women’s condition. The paper adopts the lens of fashion to investigate Annarella’s role and contribution to both the band’s aesthetics and ethics. Her approach to clothes is here considered in relation with the depoliticization of subcultures and the neoliberalism of 1980s Italian fashion. The paper also intends to address the under-researched relationships between CCCP and fashion in the twenty-first-century’s resurgence of critical impulses against cultural elitism.

description: Estimating the relative alignment between the frontier molecular orbitals that dominates the charge transport through single-molecule junctions represents a challenge for theory. This requires approaches beyond the widely employed framework provided by the density functional theory, wherein the Kohn-Sham "orbitals" are treated as if they were real molecular orbitals, which is not the case. In this paper, we report results obtained by means of quantum chemical calculations, including the EOM-CCSD (equation-of-motion coupled-cluster singles and doubles), which is the state-of-the-art of quantum chemistry for medium-size molecules like those considered here. These theoretical results are validated against data on the molecular orbital energy offset relative to the electrodes' Fermi energy extracted from experiments for junctions based on 4,4'-bipyridine and 1,4-dicyanobenzene.

What do you do with a million mails? A survey on email archiving in German-speaking countries

Subjects: subject: Library sciences

description: As part of my master’s thesis in Library and Information Science, I’ve asked archivists and librarians about the current state of email archiving from personal collections. The distribution channels were six relevant professional mailing lists of German-speaking countries. The aim was to reach at least members of the KOOP-LITEARA international network from Austria, Germany, Luxembourg and Switzerland.

Thankfully, the survey was opened more than 180 times; 115 questionnaires could be analysed. Respondents worked in academic institutions, governmental institutions, etc. About half of the respondents stated that their institutions had a long-term archive for digital records in place.

The five biggest challenges especially of email archiving, identified through qualitative methods (survey coding) were: the amount of data, legal issues and protection periods, the original structure of email archives, precustodial contact with records creators and setting up a technical infrastructure. However, one important challenge has rarely been addressed – communication with users. Restrictions on rights hinder accessibility, but couldn't at least pilot projects be launched to test working with email collections?

Nevertheless, technology is on the move! 11 respondents reported that they are already working with specialised software such as ePADD. The time is ripe.

description:   
Cet article aborde l'utopie du mensonge chez Donald Trump à travers l'analyse sémio-critique de quelques déclarations politiques dans les médias. Cette analyse se fondera sur un corpus d'expression mensongère qui met en scène un discours où sont utilisées deux stratégies communicatives, l'amour du mensonge et le mensonge par amour. Tels sont les deux discours que nous allons commenter. Selon notre hypothèse, l'utopie du mensonge est omniprésente et elle présente un danger à la fois par son contenu et par ses conséquences. Notre méthode s'appuie sur la sémiotique du discours telle qu’illustrée par Algirdas Julien Greimas. Des questions se posent : Pourquoi tel locuteur se sent-il obligé de mentir ? Est-ce une tendance naturelle à tromper les destinataires ou s’agit-il d’une stratégie politique sans laquelle il ne pourrait atteindre son but. Cet article se propose de mettre en évidence les principales caractéristiques de la stratégie utopique d’un discours reconnu comme mensonger, celui de Donald Trump qui alimenta la polémique dans la presse mondiale.
Barriers to Recruitment of Diverse Women with Suicidality in Clinical Research

description: Suicide is the 10th leading cause of death in the United States. It is important to establish
      effective treatments and prevention efforts. Progression toward these goals has been stagnant
      because it difficult to recruit representative samples of suicidal individuals in studies. By
      describing the results of recruitment efforts in a clinical trial examining the role of ovarian
      hormones in female suicidality, this study aimed to clarify the barriers to recruitment of women
      with suicidality in research. We hypothesized that barriers to recruitment would be low
      socioeconomic status, negative attitudes toward research, more severe clinical presentation, and
      minority race. We conducted t-tests and chi square analyses to compare differences in our
      expected barriers between eligible women who did enroll and eligible women who did not enroll.
      Only racial minority status was associated with lower enrollment among eligible women. Future
      research should aim to refine recruitment strategies so that samples accurately reflect an
      increasingly diverse US population.

Multiscale model of a freeze-thaw process for tree sap exudation

description: Sap transport in trees has long fascinated scientists, and a vast literature exists on experimental and modelling studies of trees during the growing season when large negative stem pressures are generated by transpiration from leaves. Much less attention has been paid to winter months when trees are largely dormant but nonetheless continue to exhibit interesting flow behaviour. A prime example is sap exudation, which refers to the peculiar ability of sugar maple (Acer saccharum) and related species to generate positive stem pressure while in a leafless state. Experiments demonstrate that ambient temperatures must oscillate about the freezing point before significantly heightened stem pressures are observed, but the precise causes of exudation remain unresolved. The prevailing hypothesis attributes exudation to a physical process combining freeze-thaw and osmosis, which has some support from experimental studies but remains a subject of active debate. We address this knowledge gap by developing the first mathematical model for exudation, while also introducing several essential modifications to this hypothesis. We derive a multiscale model consisting of a nonlinear system of differential equations governing phase change and transport within wood cells, coupled to a suitably homogenized equation for temperature on the macroscale. Numerical simulations yield stem pressures that are consistent with experiments and provide convincing evidence that a purely physical mechanism is capable of capturing exudation.
Evaluating the Long-Run Effects of Water Fluoridation: Evidence from Community Water Fluoridation Programs

description: Community water fluoridation has been named one of the 10 greatest public health achievements of the 20th century and led to vast improvements in dental health. Leveraging county level variation in the timing of fluoride adoption in a difference-in-differences design, I will estimate the causal effect of childhood fluoride exposure on long run health and labor market outcomes. I will do this using restricted census data linking individuals’ adult outcomes to their county of birth. This pre-analysis plan documents sources of original data, construction of variables, and the analysis plan. The analysis plan includes the specifications, outcomes, controls, robustness checks, and a discussion of the heterogeneity analysis that will be used in the study. At the time of writing, I have not created the analysis dataset and no part of the analysis has been conducted. I am pre-committing to this outline both to improve research transparency and to increase confidence that the results of this study do not reflect statistical noise hand-picked from repeated hypothesis testing.
Fermion zero modes in the vortex background of a Chern-Simons-Higgs theory with a hidden sector

description: In this paper we study a $2+1$ dimensional system in which fermions are coupled to the self-dual topological vortex in $U(1) \times U(1)$ Chern-Simons theory, where both $U(1)$ gauge symmetries are spontaneously broken. We consider two Abelian Higgs scalars with visible and hidden sectors coupled to a fermionic field through three interaction Lagrangians, where one of them violates the fermion number. Using a fine tuning procedure, we could obtain the number of the fermionic zero modes which is equal to the absolute value of the sum of the vortex numbers in the visible and hidden sectors.

Shape bias goes social

description: This study aims to extend prior work on “shape bias” in the object domain to the social domain. Prior work has found that children extend novel names and properties for objects based on their shape, rather than based on their color or material. Here, we examine whether children’s conceptual focus on shape as indicative of category membership also impacts their reasoning in the social domain. If so, this would (a) add to a growing body of work showing that ideas about weight and body size develop early, and (b) suggest that the shape bias might be a domain-general tendency, contributing to discussions about the nature of this bias.
Competing Factors in Phonological Learning Models: The Acquisition of English Consonant Clusters
Creators: name: Reynolds, Amy R.
Publisher: name: University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill
Year: 2011

description: This thesis tests the relative influence of a number of factors within phonological learning models that have been proposed to affect patterns of child language acquisition. In the Gradual Learning Algorithm literature, social factors such as variation in the adult grammar and frequencies of forms in child-directed speech, and mental grammar factors such as constraints and decision strategies make various predictions about the learning paths followed by children. English-speaking children's acquisition of consonant clusters is modeled to test the relative influence of learning model factors, since each social factor in the English adult language makes opposite predictions about what learning paths children should follow. Adult grammar variation is shown to be the more influential social factor, and a comparison between the constraint sets and decision strategies used in Boersma and Levelt and Jesney and Tessier provides support for using Specific Faithfulness constraints to adequately model child language acquisition.
