Literacy teaching, genres and power

Field: Arts and Humanities (Social Sciences)

The theoretical framework of this article is based on critical literacy (Janks, 2010) and genre theories (Swales, 1990; Schleppegrell, 2004). The article’s main purpose is to contribute to an understanding of the use and production of text genres as a power-embedded practice. In doing so, we analyse firstgrade children’s texts in terms of genres and sub-genres. Further, we analyse the subject positions that are constituted in the children’s texts. We understand genres as related to power since they both open and/or close ways of saying or stating things in and about the world. “Where there is power there is resistance”, as Foucault says (1976). Specific interest will be directed to children’s ways of offering resistance in their texts, namely resistance against prescribed dominant genres. This resistance is seen as a creative way for children to use their power and agency by creating hybrid genres.
Mormons in American Politics

Field: Social Sciences (Social Sciences)

This book provides a comprehensive explanation of how the Mormons have transformed from a hated and persecuted fringe group to a well-established world religion with viable candidates for all levels of American government. The Mormon tradition is unfamiliar and mysterious to most Americans outside of the religion, and understandably generates much curiosity. Mormons in American Politics: From Persecution to Power provides an intellectual foundation of Mormon development and emergence in politics, comprehensively examining significant issues and developments from historical, theological, cultural, and modern perspectives. The work analyzes diverse, contemporary topics including Mormons in popular culture, Mormon understandings of the Constitution, the Mormon welfare program, Mormon opposition to same-sex marriage, and the global expansion of Mormonism. The book is ideal for scholars and students of American politics, history, and culture; Mormon studies; religious studies; and religion and politics; as well as general readers who are interested in Mormon religion and culture or the rise of Mormon figures in mainstream American politics.
A Decision Analysis Approach to Energy System Expansion Planning

Field: Decision Sciences (Social Sciences)

Capacity expansion decisions are critically important to both public and private-sector energy suppliers as well as regional and national energy planning agencies. Simplistically stated, planning for the expansion of an energy supply system involves determining when and where new energy production facilities of various types and sizes should be deployed to meet projected demands. As with most energy-related decision problems, several factors complicate capacity expansion planning. These factors include the involvement of multiple decisionmakers and interest groups, uncertainties about technology costs and demand projections, varying degrees of risk associated with alternative energy technologies, the need to consider costs and effects over long time horizons, and the difficulty of quantifying key impacts and concerns.
Managing expressive and instrumental accountabilities in nonprofit and voluntary organizations: A qualitative investigation. Nonprofit and Voluntary Sector Quarterly

Field: Social Sciences (Social Sciences)

Various scholars have identified multiple sources of accountability in nonprofit and voluntary organizations (NPVOs) and have offered several typologies categorizing various streams of accountability. Only a few have attempted to offer strategies, however, to implement these differential forms of accountability. The study identifies multiple sources of NPVO accountabilities by engaging distinctions between these organizations ’ instrumental and expressive activities. From a qualitative study in 16 Chinese Canadian NPVOs, three forms of expressive accountability and two forms of instrumental accountability are distinguished. The study further develops a two-dimensional accountability matrix for categorizing organizations into four types according to their levels of commitment to expressive and instrumental accountabilities. Lastly, by associating organizational and managerial factors with the task of balancing the two accountabilities, the authors draw conclusions and offer implications for managerial practice.
GaN Technology Overview: Accomplishmentsand Challenges

Field: Materials Science (Physical Sciences)

This paper reports the (published) status of the AlGaN/GaN technology in the United States. Activities can be divided between AlGaN/GaN on SiC substrates for military applications, sponsored by DoD and AlGaN/GaN on Si for Base Stations. No doubt that early emphasis for US DoD has been “performances” (the W/mm race!) and progress has been fast, probably culminating with UCSB and Cree demonstrating 32W/mm at 4 GHz. These excellent performances have been made possible by the introduction and refinement of the “Field- Plate”. Understandably, the emphasis is now reliability, and all the challenges have not been conquered. In the commercial world, Nitronex has been pionneering AlGaN/GaN on Si, manufacturing large gate width devices using MOCVD grown 4” Si substrates; 20W at –39dBc is achieved with 11.5dB gain and 25% pae (28V bias) over 1.8-2.2GHz. Excellent reliability is extracted with over 20 years MTTF. TriQuint has demonstrated the potential of GaN on Si for higher frequencies with 7W/mm with 38% pae and 9dB gain at 10GHz.
4. “In Us, But Not Of Us”. The Location Of Society According To Emile Durkheim

Field: Social Sciences (Social Sciences)

This chapter focuses on Marcel Mauss's understanding of the national question and on his theory of international relations. Of particular importance for the analysis is a long manuscript on which Mauss worked in the years 1919–1920, and which he hoped to revise into a book on the national question. The author suggests that his internationalist convictions and commitments offer deeper insights into his entire corpus. Contrary to Mauss, one has no moral or scientific obligation to distinguish strictly, as he did, the scientific from the political aspects of his thought. The author argues that some of Mauss's best known anthropological writings, most notably his celebrated Essay on the Gift (1925), can be better understood if read against the background of Mauss's reflection on the national.

The Graduate Professional Portfolio as “synergy tool”: navigating the complex role of portfolios in future-focused design education

Field: Arts and Humanities (Social Sciences)

Development of a new design curriculum at Queensland University of Technology prompted a study to revisit the nature and purpose of portfolios. Always integral to design disciplines, more widely there has been rapid growth of portfolio use for student learning, assessment and showcase, with technological advancements adding impetus for these to move online. This aligns to pedagogic shifts linked to authentic learning, graduate employability, and fostering twenty-first century graduate capabilities such as collaboration and communication. Research findings conceptualise a Graduate Professional Portfolio as a living, digital “universal archive” for students’ storage, presentation of, and reflection on design processes and outputs, and a space for collaboration and showcasing selected work to peers and employers. The Behance online platform is proposed as suitable for these purposes. The study has relevance across the higher education sector where designing such learning activities with suitable flexibility for individual students’ developmental needs has proved complex.
Scaling of Lyapunov exponents at nonsmooth bifurcations

Field: Mathematics (Physical Sciences)

In nonsmooth maps intermittency can arise when a periodic orbit loses stability by crossing a set where the mapping is nondifferentiable. Motivated by the impact oscillator, which gives rise to a discontinuous mapping with infinite stretching, we consider classes of continuous but nondifferentiable maps in one and two dimension. We show that the largest Lyapunov exponent \ensuremath{\lambda} has a discontinuous jump at the bifurcation and the scaling when the bifurcation parameter \ensuremath{\epsilon} is \ensuremath{\lambda}\ensuremath{\sim}1/\ensuremath{\Vert}ln\ensuremath{\epsilon}\ensuremath{\Vert}. For a similar class of discontinuous maps there can be no immediate transition to intermittent chaos.
Comparison of Type 2 Diabetes knowledge between Singaporean university students in Singapore and in the United States

Field: Health Professions (Health Sciences)

The purpose of the study was to compare type 2 diabetes knowledge between Singaporean university students (N=104) studying in Singapore (SUSS) and Singaporean university students (N=28) studying in the United States (SUSUS). A questionnaire with five sections was distributed to both groups. SPSS was used to analyze the data and an independent t‐test was performed. The results showed that there were no significant differences between two groups when questions were asked regarding general knowledge, symptoms, complications, risk factors, treatment and management of type 2 diabetes; however, when obtaining knowledge from sources such as the internet (Mean 1.86 vs 1.71) and health professionals (Mean 1.89 vs 1.82) which provide information regarding diabetes were significantly different (p< 0.05) between two groups (SUSS vs SUSUS, respectively). Literature reviews have shown that there has been much effort and time spent on educating the general public in Singapore, however only one study has been done to investigate the effectiveness of public education. Conducting a similar study on Singaporean university students will enable health educators to assess the strengths and weaknesses of the public education and further improve the education methods by helping to focus on areas which need more improvements. If living overseas has created more awareness/knowledge of type 2 diabetes, the results indicated that being overseas does not necessary mean that more awareness/knowledge is created. In addition more SUSS were exposed to the knowledge of type 2 diabetes through the internet/health professional sources in Singapore.
Structural asymmetry, physicochemical characterization and optical properties of a new luminescent zero dimensional organic-inorganic hybrid compound

Field: Materials Science (Physical Sciences)

A novel 0D organic–inorganic hybrid antimony-based halide [((R)-C8H12N)4](Sb2Cl10) was achieved through a slow evaporation method at room temperature. Single crystal X-ray diffraction analysis revealed that the compound crystallizes in the monoclinic system, within the P21 space group. The structure consists of(R)-1-phenylethylammonium (C8H12N)+cations and [Sb2Cl10]4− dimers, formed by edge-sharing distorted octahedra. The cohesion of the structure were ensured by N-H…Cl hydrogen bonds. Hirshfeld surface analysis indicated H…H interactions as the dominant intermolecular interaction contacts (42.4 %). Infrared and Raman spectroscopy confirmed the presence of organic cations and inorganic components. The thermogravimetric analysis demonstrated that the compound exhibits thermal stability up to 180 °C. Finally, Optical studies further suggest that this material holds significant promise for optical and optoelectronic applications.
Basal Inter-hemispheric Approach for Anterior Communicating Artery Aneurysm Reoperation

Field: Medicine (Health Sciences)

We present 2 patients in whom basal interhemispheric (BIH) approaches were applied to surgically address anterior communicating artery aneurysms (AcomAn) after initial surgery via pterional approaches that resulted in incomplete clipping. In both patients, the initial clips were successfully removed with use of vario clip appliers followed by complete neck clipping. The first case was a 55-year-old man with subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH) who arrived in poor cardiopulmonary condition. Angiographic evidence of extravasation of the contrast media led us to immediately surgically intervene via the dominant side of the anterior cerebral artery. However, complete neck clipping was abandoned due to marked brain swelling, and only aneurysm dome clipping was achieved. Thirty-eight days later, a second surgery was performed using the BIH approach. The second case was a 66-year-old woman with SAH caused by ruptured AcomAn associated with the median artery of the corpus callosum (MACC). A residual neck remnant grew gradually. After failed coil embolization, she had a second surgical intervention via the BIH approach 18 months after the initial surgery. Previous clips were removed in both patients and the coil was also removed in the second one. The BIH approach provides a wider surgical view and working space. We report technical tips to remove previously placed clips via different surgical approaches.
[A new approach to postexposure treatment of rabies by complex of immuno- and chemotherapy in belarus].

Field: Pharmacology, Toxicology and Pharmaceutics (Life Sciences)

A method for preventive treatment of rabies with a complex of immuno- and chemotherapeutics was developed. Rifampicin was used a an etiotropic drug. In the experiments on laboratory animals infected with fixed and street strains of rabies virus it was shown to prolong the incubation period and to increase the survival rate. The protective mechanisms of rifampicin against rabies should be associated with inhibition of RNA transcription, as well as immunomodulating function of macrophages, dendritic cells, B- and T-cells. Since 1992, after the approval of the Ministry of Health of Belarus rifampicin is used in complex with antirabic vaccine for postexposure treatment of rabies in people after severe bites by infected animals (wolves, foxes, dogs). For an 18-year period (1992-2009) of integrated application of chemo- and immunotherapy in Belarus there was not registered any case of hydrophobia in people even after the heaviest wolf bites, incompatible with life (penetrating injuries of the skull, scalping, multiple bites).

Cosmological Expressions and Medicine Stones in the Ancestral Pueblo World

Field: Arts and Humanities (Social Sciences)

Chaco Canyon (850–1130 CE) served as the regional center for Ancestral Puebloan communities in the northern U.S. Southwest. Pueblo ethnographic traditions and the archaeological record demonstrate the importance of cosmological beliefs with origins at Chaco. We suggest archaeologists can develop more dynamic interpretations of how ancient peoples manifested conceptions of the cosmos by focusing greater attention to the temporality and semiotic properties of material culture. To illustrate this point, we argue that marine fossil shells, concretions, and water-worn pebbles were seen to be indexical of a past watery world at Chaco Canyon and elsewhere in the Ancestral Pueblo World. Perceived as traces of a primordial time and place that existed before cosmic emergences into the world, this class of artifacts called "medicine stones" evokes the essential element needed to sustain life for all Ancestral Puebloan people – water. Through the analysis of museum collections, ethnohistorical data, and creation narratives from Pueblo and other Native descendant groups, we present evidence that these medicine stones were interpreted in the past as manifestations of a pre-Pueblo cosmovision. As such, these artifacts were incorporated into a wide array of cultural contexts and media, and may have in part been associated with psychosocial healing practices.
Review of actual risks on aggravating infectious diseases epidemiological situation in the Indo-West-Pacific region important for sanitary protection of the territory of the Russian Federation

Field: Medicine (Health Sciences)

Here, we review summarized epidemiological data and analyze the situation on infectious diseases in the countries of the Indo-West-Pacific region that require measures for sanitary protection of the territory of the Russian Federation. The main source of relevant information was the official websites and periodicals of the WHO, Ministries of Health of the respective countries. The data from other international organizations (Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations, World Organization for Animal Health), electronic aggregators of operational information (ProMED-mail, EpiSouth, arbo-zoonet, etc.), data from articles published in peer-reviewed journals covering epidemiological issues were used. In recent years, due to a set of reasons, the risk of infectious diseases entering Russia from the Indo-West-Pacific region has increased manifold: actively developing tourism to Asian countries, higher number of trade and economic ties, increased number of direct flights with the countries of the region. The paper systematizes data on morbidity and territorial distribution of diseases in the Western Pacific and South-East Asia regions by assessing potential risks for persons visiting it. During the analysis, it has been established that the epidemiological situation currently developing in the Indo-Pacific region poses a significant threat to the sanitary and epidemiological welfare of the population primarily due to the increasing risks for spread of dangerous infectious diseases into the territory of the Russian Federation. The most probable is the risk of spreading of infectious diseases such as cholera, malaria and dengue fever, the unfavorable epidemiological situation on which has developed in recent years in the region. At the same time, the presence of direct transportation links between Russian regions and a number of countries in the region (Thailand, Sri Lanka, Vietnam, Maldives, India, Mongolia, China, Myanmar) multiplies the risk of spreading for such diseases. According to the previously developed methodology for calculating the risk of infectious diseases entering the territory of the Russian Federation, it was established that there is a high risk of dengue fever entry from Laos, Malaysia, Nepal, Thailand and the Philippines.
Reduced mRNA and a nonsense mutation in the insulin-receptor gene produce heritable severe insulin resistance.

Field: Biochemistry, Genetics and Molecular Biology (Life Sciences)

Leprechaunism is an autosomal recessive syndrome of severe insulin resistance and is characterized by intrauterine growth restriction, acanthosis nigricans, hirsutism, and loss of glucose homeostasis. Here we report a new female patient of Hispanic and Afro-American descent whose fibroblasts and lymphoblasts had markedly impaired insulin binding (less than 10% of that in controls). Insulin binding to lymphoblasts established from both unrelated parents was partially impaired. Insulin-like growth factor-I (IGF-I) and epidermal growth factor (EGF) binding to the patient's fibroblasts were within the normal range. Insulin stimulation of receptor autophosphorylation and kinase activity was markedly reduced in the patient's fibroblasts. The patient's fibroblasts had both a reduced number of immunoreactive insulin receptor (6% of those in controls) and concomitantly reduced amounts of insulin-receptor mRNA, suggesting that both mutations inherited by the patient reduced insulin-receptor mRNA. Sequencing of the insulin-receptor gene and cDNA indicated that the patient was heterozygous for a paternally derived mutation at bp 1333, converting Arg372 to a STOP codon. This nonsense mutation was observed in the insulin-receptor gene, but not in cDNA, indicating reduced amounts of mRNA for the allele containing this mutation. The coding sequence of the maternally inherited insulin-receptor allele was normal. Both the marked reduction in insulin-receptor mRNA in the compound heterozygous fibroblasts of the proband and the partially reduced insulin binding in maternal cells suggest that the maternally derived mutation is located in an insulin-receptor gene sequence that controls cellular mRNA content.
An Interactive Multimodality Curriculum Teaching Medicine Residents About Oncologic Documentation and Billing

Field: Health Professions (Health Sciences)

INTRODUCTION: Physicians recognize the importance of clinical documentation for accuracy of coding and billing, but it is emphasized little in residency curricula, with an even smaller emphasis on oncology-specific documentation. We developed an educational curriculum to teach residents about clinical documentation for cancer patients. Our tool kit includes didactics, simulated history and physical (H&P) documentation, and personal feedback. METHODS: A preintervention survey was first administered to gauge baseline knowledge. A simulated H&P was developed that required participants to complete their own assessment and plan. We delivered a 25-minute lecture regarding billing and coding along with documentation tips and tricks specific to hematology/oncology. Thereafter, we handed out a second H&P, and participants had to once again complete their own assessment and plan. These H&Ps were graded by three reviewers using a rubric. We then gave residents personalized feedback using the above data and administered a postintervention survey. RESULTS: The postintervention survey revealed that 100% of the residents surveyed found this activity helpful, 83% noted that further knowledge of diagnosis codes was helpful to their learning, 100% noted that that this activity taught them to improve documentation, 91% said they were more likely to use cancer-specific diagnoses, and 91% said they would benefit from direct feedback-based education. DISCUSSION: Didactic and formal education is more effective when combined with hands-on examples and direct personalized feedback.
