Because this FCC case acted as the front lines for the battle over network neutrality, the FCC’s final ruling a year later can give us a good idea about what the future holds for network neutrality in the United States. This paper examines the basic workings of the Internet, theories of innovation the Internet was built upon, levels of potential neutrality regulation and, finally, an analysis of the FCC’s ruling. This paper argues that while the FCC did not designate a clear long-term future for network neutrality, President Barack Obama’s strong stated support of network neutrality bodes well for a stronger FCC commitment to its preservation.", "language": "en", "license": { "name": "All rights reserved", "short_name": "Copyright", "text": "© the author(s).

In Sierra Leone this dynamic is particularly true because of the small size of the population and the extended length of the conflict. Since the end of the civil war in 2002, transnational interventions have been highlighted as having successful programs that have been key in increasing stability in the country. Using the framework of women’s reintegration successes, this research aims to show that much of the stability in the country can also be attributed to linkages between past socio-cultural and political practices and institutions. This research shows that these linkages are spaces of strategic manipulation which women use to increase their economic and social standing. I argue that these manipulations between discourses and practices of the past, the present, and the proposed future have contributed to new ways of identity formation for women in Sierra Leone. Explorations in secondary data and theory pertaining to gendered social transformation in post-conflict settings are further informed by two months of intensive fieldwork using ethnographic research methods of participant observation and informal interviews in Sierra Leone in the summer of 2008.", "language": "en", "license": { "name": "All rights reserved", "short_name": "Copyright", "text": "© the author(s).

We view the relationship as an evolving and strained social contract; unresolved is the scope of school influence in relation to that of parents.

Given this sociopolitical backdrop, we propose a framework for curricular reform in which agonistic expression is tempered by the active involvement of parents in family political communication. We explicate a contingent model of deliberative learning, whereby political exchanges in one context contribute to exchanges in another context.

First of all, the discursive practices of YouTube validate Habermas’s notion of the public sphere by suggesting video communication as a new perspective of participatory democracy. Creating community is another key notion that users consider to be the future of YouTube; users believe it facilitates interactive and creative communication among different cultures, races, and societies. However, there is little consideration of how individuals make critical use of YouTube as a means for sociopolitical engagement.

There is no clear Middle Kingdom evidence that people were allowed to dedicate votive offerings in state-run temples, but the practice seems to have remained part of popular religion and is most visible in funerary contexts. During the New Kingdom, it became permissible for individuals to set up stelae or leave small votive objects in the outer areas of state temples or in special shrines. Most of the small votive offerings were made to Hathor, or related goddesses. In the Late and Ptolemaic Periods many stelae, ritual objects, and figures of deities were dedicated in sacred areas, often in relation to animal cults. The majority of votive objects seem to have been made in temple workshops for cult purposes. Most of the offerings fall into three main categories: representations of deities, objects used in the temple cult, or objects associated with human fertility. Both women and men dedicated votive objects to reinforce prayers or to perpetuate their involvement in a divine cult.

The School was initially called the School of Social Service. Prior to this, the country’s social workers were mainly trained in British, South African and Zambian Social Work Colleges. The first students were trained as group workers for clubs, welfare centres, and urban conditions where the clientele were more visible. The major strength of colonial social work education was that it formed the basis for professional social work practice resulting in the creation of a three year diploma in 1966. In 1969 the school changed its name to the School of Social Work and became the first associate college of the University of Rhodesia (now University of Zimbabwe), with students awarded a university diploma in Social Work after a three year program. In 1975 the School established the first bachelor’s degree programme in Social Work (BSW), which was followed later by the Honours and Masters degree. The school, which is the only social work training institution in the country, is now an affiliate of the University of Zimbabwe. Since the attainment of independence, the School of Social Work has transformed into a dynamic institution making social work education more responsive to the development needs of the country. The government in Zimbabwe remains the largest employer of social workers with a few employed by private and charitable organisations (NGOs). The single greatest challenge facing social work education in Zimbabwe today is making it more responsive to the needs and aspirations of the people of Zimbabwe.

The secondary goal was to determine if certain factors would significantly alter patients’ ED throughput.\n\n\nMethods: A MEDLINE search was performed from 1966 to 2007 using the terms “turnaround,” “emergency departments,” “emergency medicine,” “efficiency,” “throughput,” “overcrowding” and “crowding.” Studies were graded using a scale of one to four based on the ACEP paper quality criteria. Inclusion criteria were English language and at least a level four or better on the quality scale. An analysis of successful procedures and techniques was performed.\n\n\nResults: Literature search using the key terms found 29 articles on turnaround times, 129 on ED efficiency, 3 on throughput, 64 on overcrowding and 52 on crowding. Twenty-six articles were found to meet the inclusion criteria. There were three level I studies, thirteen level II studies, five level III studies and five level IV studies. The studies were categorized into five areas: determinants (7), laboratories processes (4), triage process (3), academic responsibilities (2), and techniques (10). Few papers used the same techniques or process to examine or reduce patient throughput precluding a meta-analysis.\n\n\nConclusions: An analysis of the literature was difficult because of varying study methodologies and less than ideal quality. EDs with combinations of low inpatient census, in-room registration, point of care testing and an urgent care area demonstrated increased patient throughput.

Unfortunately, politicians and policy makers in California and other states have adopted the presumption of the cost-effectiveness of Medicaid Managed Care as a rationale for expanding the use of managed care programs to include a larger share of more Medicaid eligible enrollees, and expand coverage and services to the currently uninsured. This paper challenges the assertion that Medi-Cal Managed Care is cost effective, by demonstrating that the unique and idiosyncratic manner in which Medi-Cal managed care has been implemented in California (and other states) creates perverse incentives leading to cost-shifting and selective enrollment and dis-enrollment of costly beneficiaries. This places an unfair burden on fee-for-service Medi-Cal providers, who are expected to provide more services for less reimbursement. Administrators of Medicaid Managed Care programs need to consider risk adjusted rates for beneficiaries enrolled in plans in order to align incentives with program objectives.

Similarly, it is known to influence physician perception of crash victim injury severity. The goal of this feasibility study was to examine paramedic accuracy in predicting crash victim injury profile, disability outcome at hospital discharge, and reporting vehicle damage with other crash variables.\n\n\nMethods: This prospective case series study was undertaken at a Southern California, Level I trauma center certified by the American College of Surgeons. Paramedics transporting crash injured motor vehicle occupants to our emergency department (ED)/trauma center were surveyed. We abstracted ED and in-patient records of injured vehicle occupants. Vehicle and crash scene data were obtained from a professional crash reconstruction, which included the assessment of deformation, crash forces, change in velocity, and the source of each injury.\n\n\nResults: We used survey, injury, and crash reconstruction data from 22 collision cases in the final analysis. The median Injury Severity Score (ISS) was five (range 1-24). No enrolled patients died, and none were severely disabled at the time of discharge from the hospital. The paramedic crash injury severity predictions were sensitive for an Abbreviated Injury Scale (AIS) of 2-4. Paramedics often agreed with the crash reconstruction on restraint use, ejection, and other fatalities at the scene, and had lower levels of agreement for front airbag deployment, steering wheel damage, and window/windshield impact. Paramedics had 80% accuracy in predicting any disability at the time of hospital discharge.\n\n\nConclusion: Paramedic prediction of injury profile was sensitive, and prediction of disability outcome at discharge was accurate when compared to discharge diagnosis. Their reporting of vehicle specific crash variables was less accurate. Further study should be undertaken to assess the benefits of crash biomechanics education for paramedics and other pre-hospital care providers.

Patients with serious injury to other body areas were excluded to prevent confounding the cause of adverse events.

Medical surgical inpatient bed occupancy of 92% was chosen because beyond that rate we observed more frequent extended daily transfer times. The data is from a single large tertiary care institute with 590 beds and an annual ED census of 80,000.\n\n\nResults: Group 1 includes 38 days with (med/surg) inpatient bed occupancy rate of less than 92%, with an average ED daily wait of 2.5 hrs (95% confidence interval 2.23-2.96) for transfer from the ED to the appropriate hospital bed. Group 2 includes 68 days with med/surg census greater than 92% with an average ED daily wait of 4.1 hours (95% confidence interval 3.7-4.5). Minimum daily average for the two groups was 1.2 hrs and 1.3 hrs, respectively. The maximum average was 5.6 hrs for group 1 and 8.6 hrs for group 2. Comparison of group 1 to 2 for wait time to hospital bed yielded p <0.01. Total reported hospital occupied capacity shows a correlation coefficient of 0.16 to transfer time interval, which indicates a weak relationship between total occupancy and transfer time into the hospital. Med/surg occupancy, the beds typically used by ED patients, has a 0.62 correlation coefficient for a moderately strong relationship.\n\n\nConclusions: Med/surg bed occupancy has a better correlation to extended transfer times, and occupancy over 92% at 5 AM in our institution corresponds to an increased frequency of extended transfer times from the ED. The process of ED evaluation, hospital admission, and subsequent transfer into the hospital are all complex processes. This study begins to demonstrate one variable, med/surg occupancy, as one of the intervals that can be followed to evaluate the process of ED admission and hospital flow.

Many social species of birds appear to be capable of individual recognition. However, it is possible that at least under some circumstances these and other species discriminate conspecifics not based on individual recognition but instead, by recognizing them as members of one or more social categories. Many references to individual recognition in the literature have neglected to address this distinction. For example, Riters and Balthazart (1998) reported that male quail were capable of recognizing individual females with which they had and had not copulated, but their experimental design may have unintentionally created two social categories of females (sexually receptive and non-receptive). The present set of experiments replicated Riters’ and Balthazart’s findings (Experiment 1) and then tested male quail for their ability to recognize females based on physical cues only (Experiment 2), physical and behavioral cues (Experiment 3), and the social categorization cues associated with female receptivity (Experiment 4). The results suggested that male quail are capable of recognizing individual females with which they have and have not copulated, but this recognition is not based onphysical, non-sexual, or sexual receptivity behaviors in isolation. Instead, individual recognition occurred only when the males were able to utilize all of these potentially distinctive female attributes in combination. The results also suggested that female receptivity responses may be unique and idiosyncratic, varying along one or more dimensions.", "language": "en", "license": { "name": "Creative Commons Attribution 4.0", "short_name": "CC BY 4.0", "text": "Attribution — You must give appropriate credit, provide a link to the license, and indicate if changes were made.

These registration rates were compared to rates at similar times on similar days of the week during the year devoid of a major sporting contest. Games were assumed to have a play time of three hours. Data was collected from April 2000 through March 2003 at an urban academic ED seeing 33,000 male patients above the age of 18 years annually.\n\n\nResults: A total of 782 games were identified and used for purposes of the study. Professional football game dates had a mean of 17.9 males (95% confidence interval [CI] 17.4-18.4) registering vs. 26.8 males (95% CI 25.9-27.6) on non-game days. A registration rate for major league baseball was 18.4 patients (95% CI 17.6-18.4). The mean for registration on comparable non-game days was 23.9 patients (95% CI 22.8-24.3). For the regional Division I college football team, the mean number of patients registering on game days and non-game days was 21.7 (95% CI 20.9-22.4) and 23.4 (95% CI 22.9-23.7), respectively. Division I college basketball play for game and non-game days had mean rates of registration of 14.5 (95% CI 13.9-15.1) and 15.5 (95% CI 15.1-15.9) patients, respectively. For all sports dates collectively, a comparison of two means yielded a mean of 18.2 patients (95% CI 17.4-18.8) registering during the study hours on game days vs. 23.3 patients (95% CI 22.0-23.7) on non-game days. The mean difference was 5.1 patients (95% CI 3.7 to 7.0) with p < .000074.\n\n\nConclusion: Male patient visits to the ED decline during major sporting events.

There is insufficient surveillance and causation data available. We report 12 months of surveillance data using a novel data collection methodology.\n\n\nMethods: We used an open-source, prospective method to collect 12 consecutive months of data, including demographics, behavior, illicit substance use, control methods used, and time of collapse after law enforcement contact. Descriptive analysis and chi-square testing were applied.\n\n\nResults: There were 162 ARD events reported that met inclusion criteria. The majority were male with mean age 36 years, and involved bizarre, agitated behavior and reports of drug abuse just prior to death. Law enforcement control techniques included none (14%); empty-hand techniques (69%); intermediate weapons such as TASER device, impact weapon or chemical irritant spray (52%); and deadly force (12%). Time from contact to subject collapse included instantaneous (13%), within the first hour (53%) and 1-48 hours (35%). Significant collapse time associations occurred with the use of certain intermediate weapons.\n\n\nConclusion: This surveillance report can be a foundation for discussing ARD. These data support the premise that ARDs primarily occur in persons with a certain demographic and behavior profile that includes middle-aged males exhibiting agitated, bizarre behavior generally following illicit drug abuse. Collapse time associations were demonstrated with the use of TASER devices and impact weapons. We recommend further study in this area to validate our data collection method and findings.

Authentic interactions between study-abroad students and native speakers of German that deal overtly with aspects of language are analyzed. These conversational events are labeled “Talk-about-Language” and are distinguished from focus-on-form (Long, 1991) because they do not relate directly to the acquisition of particular forms, and because they do not occur in the classroom, but rather in naturalistic settings in Germany. The research questions for the analysis are (1) how do L2 learners engage in Talk-about-Language?, (2) what conversational or discursive functions does Talk-about-Language serve?, and (3) how is Talk-about Language to be understood as social practice? Employing some of the tools of conversation and discourse analysis, several conversational excerpts are analyzed in order to categorize Talk-about-Language events into a taxonomy and explore Talk-about-Language as a component of L2 learners’ socialization as legitimate peripheral participants in the L2 culture (Lave & Wenger, 1991).

It argues that education in Archival Science, which traditionally has included elements of both professional practice and scholarship and which has only scantily reflected upon the pedagogies it has employed, has played a fundamental role in perpetuating the cultural hegemony of dominant groups. It has done so by inculcating archival ideas and principles without simultaneously providing sufficient historical analysis of their derivations or original intent, and without nurturing a critical perspective that would encourage sensitivity on the part of future archival professionals and scholars to the cultural and social implications of what are often regarded as “value-neutral” concepts and practices, particularly in terms of their impact on the record-keeping and memory practices of marginalized and under-represented groups.", "language": "en", "license": null, "keywords": [ { "word": "Archival Science" }, { "word": "Archival Studies" }, { "word": "History" }, { "word": "Archival Education" } ], "section": "Articles", "is_remote": true, "remote_url": "https://escholarship.org/uc/item/7wp1q908", "frozenauthors": [ { "first_name": "Anne", "middle_name": "", "last_name": "Gilliland", "name_suffix": "", "institution": "University of California, Los Angeles", "department": "None" }, { "first_name": "Kelvin", "middle_name": "", "last_name": "White", "name_suffix": "", "institution": "University of Oklahoma Norman Campus", "department": "None" } ], "date_submitted": "2008-11-15T02:00:00-06:00", "date_accepted": "2008-11-15T02:00:00-06:00", "date_published": "2009-02-20T02:00:00-06:00", "render_galley": null, "galleys": [ { "label": "", "type": "", "path": "https://journalpub.escholarship.org/gseis_interactions/article/3073/galley/1866/download/" } ] }, { "pk": 3063, "title": "Review: The Art of Critical Pedagogy by Jeffrey M.R.

The essay places this course in the context of the modern university and the changing archival community and considers the challenges and potential successes of engaging graduate students within a professional school.", "language": "en", "license": null, "keywords": [ { "word": "Archival Education" } ], "section": "Articles", "is_remote": true, "remote_url": "https://escholarship.org/uc/item/0408w1dv", "frozenauthors": [ { "first_name": "Richard", "middle_name": "J", "last_name": "Cox", "name_suffix": "", "institution": "University of Pittsburgh School of Information Sciences", "department": "None" } ], "date_submitted": "2008-10-30T02:00:00-05:00", "date_accepted": "2008-10-30T02:00:00-05:00", "date_published": "2009-02-20T02:00:00-06:00", "render_galley": null, "galleys": [ { "label": "", "type": "", "path": "https://journalpub.escholarship.org/gseis_interactions/article/3068/galley/1861/download/" } ] }, { "pk": 43294, "title": "About the Contributors", "subtitle": null, "abstract": "", "language": "en", "license": null, "keywords": [], "section": "Contributors", "is_remote": true, "remote_url": "https://escholarship.org/uc/item/01j7g4jk", "frozenauthors": [], "date_submitted": "2009-02-13T02:00:00-06:00", "date_accepted": "2009-02-13T02:00:00-06:00", "date_published": "2009-02-16T02:00:00-06:00", "render_galley": null, "galleys": [ { "label": "", "type": "pdf", "path": "https://journalpub.escholarship.org/jtas/article/43294/galley/32261/download/" } ] }, { "pk": 43268, "title": "A Comment on the War-Prayer: Mark Twain 'Never Ceased to Grow'", "subtitle": null, "abstract": "", "language": "en", "license": null, "keywords": [ { "word": "Samuel Clemens (1835-1910)" }, { "word": "\"The War-Prayer" }, { "word": "\" Philippine-American War" } ], "section": "Reprise", "is_remote": true, "remote_url": "https://escholarship.org/uc/item/7650s6tb", "frozenauthors": [ { "first_name": "Makoto", "middle_name": "", "last_name": "Nagawara", "name_suffix": "", "institution": "Ritsumeikan University", "department": "None" } ], "date_submitted": "2008-11-21T02:00:00-06:00", "date_accepted": "2008-11-21T02:00:00-06:00", "date_published": "2009-02-16T02:00:00-06:00", "render_galley": null, "galleys": [ { "label": "", "type": "pdf", "path": "https://journalpub.escholarship.org/jtas/article/43268/galley/32235/download/" } ] }, { "pk": 43258, "title": "American Studies Without Tears, or What Does America Want?", "subtitle": null, "abstract": "As Americanists, we commonly approach \"America\" with suspicion, fear, even anger; we view it as a powerful, duplicitous force to be denounced or demystified. This paper speculates on why this might be so and in particular considers the troubled relationships at that heart of this dilemma—relations between pleasure and knowledge, and between sentiment and critique. This trouble is evident in the difficulties we experience in working through these relationships in our critical approaches, the difficulties in balancing intellectual comprehension and emotional apprehension of America. This is evident in the field imaginary of American Studies, which is posited here not only as a sphere of collective knowledge that is regulated by disciplinary practices but also as a field of less-regulated desires. I consider what the construction of a field imaginary leaves out, what it represses or disavows, in producing America as an object of knowledge. In an attempt to illustrate some of these considerations in relation to critical practice, this essay concludes by looking at a photographic image.", "language": "en", "license": null, "keywords": [ { "word": "the field of American Studies" }, { "word": "Transnational American Studies" }, { "word": "Photography" } ], "section": "Articles", "is_remote": true, "remote_url": "https://escholarship.org/uc/item/27v4s1sc", "frozenauthors": [ { "first_name": "Liam", "middle_name": "", "last_name": "Kennedy", "name_suffix": "", "institution": "University College Dublin", "department": "None" } ], "date_submitted": "2008-09-17T02:00:00-05:00", "date_accepted": "2008-09-17T02:00:00-05:00", "date_published": "2009-02-16T02:00:00-06:00", "render_galley": null, "galleys": [ { "label": "", "type": "pdf", "path": "https://journalpub.escholarship.org/jtas/article/43258/galley/32225/download/" } ] }, { "pk": 43260, "title": "America's Other Half: Slum Journalism and the War of 1898", "subtitle": null, "abstract": "This article treats the links between the 1890s literature of urban reform in the United States, which focused on the downtown \"other half\" of New York, and the war literature of 1898, when American troops intervened in Cuba's war of independence. The article focuses on the work of Stephen Crane, who worked as a New York police reporter, slum novelist, and Cuba war correspondent in this turbulent decade. Leary shows how, in the martial culture of the American 1890s, the rhetoric of militarism informed the practice of urban reform, while the rhetoric of urban reform informed the military campaign in Cuba. This article argues that the United States' urban underdevelopment, represented famously by the Lower East Side of Manhattan, was imaginatively displaced onto Cuba. The War of 1898 was therefore an important landmark in the creation of a Third World imaginary in the United States, when \"underdevelopment\" would become a distinctly Latin American condition. In the twentieth century, the gap between modernity and underdevelopment would not be found in the sprawling tenement cities, but in \"other Americas\" to the south, below the Mason-Dixon line and in Cuba. After 1898, Cuba, once so close to the United States as to be nearly a state in the union, now belonged to another time—indeed, almost another world.", "language": "en", "license": null, "keywords": [ { "word": "Stephen Crane (1871-1900)" }, { "word": "yellow journalism" }, { "word": "Spanish-American War" }, { "word": "urban reform" }, { "word": "underdevelopment" }, { "word": "treatment of Cuba" } ], "section": "Articles", "is_remote": true, "remote_url": "https://escholarship.org/uc/item/0v654385", "frozenauthors": [ { "first_name": "John", "middle_name": "Patrick", "last_name": "Leary", "name_suffix": "", "institution": "New York University", "department": "None" } ], "date_submitted": "2008-05-11T02:00:00-05:00", "date_accepted": "2008-05-11T02:00:00-05:00", "date_published": "2009-02-16T02:00:00-06:00", "render_galley": null, "galleys": [ { "label": "", "type": "pdf", "path": "https://journalpub.escholarship.org/jtas/article/43260/galley/32227/download/" } ] }, { "pk": 43278, "title": "Anti-War Statements in 'the War-Prayer' and 'the Private History of a Campaign That Failed'", "subtitle": null, "abstract": "", "language": "en", "license": null, "keywords": [ { "word": "Samuel Clemens (1835-1910)" }, { "word": "\"The War-Prayer" }, { "word": "\" \"The Private History of a Campaign That Failed" }, { "word": "\" Philippine-American War" }, { "word": "American Civil War" }, { "word": "patriotism" } ], "section": "Reprise", "is_remote": true, "remote_url": "https://escholarship.org/uc/item/4rk327rk", "frozenauthors": [ { "first_name": "Maggie", "middle_name": "", "last_name": "Oran", "name_suffix": "", "institution": "Stanford University", "department": "None" } ], "date_submitted": "2008-11-21T02:00:00-06:00", "date_accepted": "2008-11-21T02:00:00-06:00", "date_published": "2009-02-16T02:00:00-06:00", "render_galley": null, "galleys": [ { "label": "", "type": "pdf", "path": "https://journalpub.escholarship.org/jtas/article/43278/galley/32245/download/" } ] }, { "pk": 43292, "title": "Caloocan: The War-Prayer Answered", "subtitle": null, "abstract": "", "language": "en", "license": null, "keywords": [ { "word": "Samuel Clemens (1835-1910)" }, { "word": "\"The War-Prayer" }, { "word": "\" Philippine-American War" } ], "section": "Reprise", "is_remote": true, "remote_url": "https://escholarship.org/uc/item/5dg6j3x9", "frozenauthors": [ { "first_name": "Darryl", "middle_name": "", "last_name": "Brock", "name_suffix": "", "institution": "", "department": "None" } ], "date_submitted": "2008-11-21T02:00:00-06:00", "date_accepted": "2008-11-21T02:00:00-06:00", "date_published": "2009-02-16T02:00:00-06:00", "render_galley": null, "galleys": [ { "label": "", "type": "pdf", "path": "https://journalpub.escholarship.org/jtas/article/43292/galley/32259/download/" } ] } ] }
