A total of 250 UC Riverside undergraduate participants viewed a series of pictures of the model’s silhouettes wearing Western-style wedding dresses and reported their perceptions (e.g., confident, original, shy, vain, fun) of the model in each picture. The wedding dresses varied in neckline (i.e., Sweetheart, V-Neck, Halter, High Neck) and silhouette (i.e., A-line, Mermaid, Fit and Flare, Ballgown). We found significant, reliable differences in how participants perceived the models as a function of dress silhouette and neckline. Specifically, participants perceived the models wearing the Fit and Flare silhouette to be especially confident, original, fun, and vain, but the models wearing the A-line silhouette to be the least confident, original, and fun. Furthermore, participants perceived the models wearing the V-neck neckline to be especially confident and vain, but the models wearing the High Neck to be the least confident, original, and fun. Additionally, the participants perceived the models wearing the Sweetheart neckline to be especially original, and fun, and the models wearing the Halter neckline especially confident. It is important to note that the Halter, High Neck, and Sweetheart all scored the same in the vain category. This research establishes a relationship between wedding dresses and social perceptions, which brides can use to select the dresses to convey their desired perceptions, and fashion shows and businesses can use to better serve their customers. </p>","language":"eng","license":{"name":"Creative Commons Attribution-NonCommercial  4.0","short_name":"CC BY-NC 4.0","text":"Attribution — You must give appropriate credit, provide a link to the license, and indicate if changes were made.

A world so far ahead in its definitions of humanity may seem to be beyond gender as well, with Kusanagi seemingly fitting the definition of a post-gender cyborg in the manner of Donna Haraway’s A Cyborg Manifesto, but a closer examination using a Deleuzian lens suggests otherwise. In actuality, Kusanagi, comfortably, never challenges the audiences’ perceptions of gender the same way it may question humanity and technology. In contrast, a cyborg identity character that does question these norms is protagonist Lain Iwakura, of Serial Experiments Lain, by almost entirely bypassing the sexual themes that Ghost in the Shell attempts to address. Thus, despite not being a physical cyborg like Kusanagi, Lain presents a truer interpretation of a post-gender posthuman cyborg identity.</p>","language":"eng","license":{"name":"Creative Commons Attribution-NonCommercial  4.0","short_name":"CC BY-NC 4.0","text":"Attribution — You must give appropriate credit, provide a link to the license, and indicate if changes were made.

The essay traces some of the history of the idea of American exceptionalism, paying particular attention to how it has been deployed in American political rhetoric over the past twenty years or so. During Trump’s first presidential campaign, some observers noted that Trump was the only major political figure who did not embrace the idea of American exceptionalism, noting that then-President Barack Obama, as well as Trump’s fellow Republican presidential candidates, all asserted the special nature of the United States. This essay argues that such perceptions were a misreading of Trump’s rhetoric and beliefs, an argument supported by Trump’s later embrace of American exceptionalism. The essay further argues that the rise of Trump, when viewed alongside a global retreat from the values of liberal democracy, reveals that there is nothing special, unique, or exceptional about the United States.</p>\n<p> </p>","language":"eng","license":{"name":"Creative Commons Attribution-NonCommercial-NoDerivatives  4.0","short_name":"CC BY-NC-ND 4.0","text":"Attribution — You must give appropriate credit, provide a link to the license, and indicate if changes were made.

While history is generally considered to progress in a linear fashion, such a wave seemingly validates a circular model of history, if only given the evident parallelism between our times and the first half of the preceding century. Analysts such as Ray Dalio go even further, arguing that the present cycle, characterized by the United States’s predominance in the world order, is drawing to a close, predictively giving way to China’s imminent relay as the leading power. However, regardless of whether we are experiencing the culmination of a geopolitical cycle or simply reiterating the early decades of the twentieth century, a new element is characterizing today’s rise of the far right. The limelight presence of tech billionaires at President Donald Trump’s 2025 inauguration and their multimillion dollar investments in the Republican campaign evince a different kind of relationship between governments and corporations. While the confluence of politics and private interests is by no means new, the blatant barefacedness of this relationship is somewhat unprecedented, revealing an unashamed move to oligarchy. What is more, an added and more preoccupying novelty is the United States’s apparent shift from libertarianism to authoritarianism. Economist Yanis Varoufakis goes as far as to argue that capitalism itself is experiencing a radical transformation, through the mutation of capital into what he terms “cloud capital.” The result of these discrepancies is unfortunately not a transcending of the cycle, but the alleged demise of capitalism in favour of a return to a new kind of (\"techno-\")feudalism. This article scrutinizes the current sociopolitical situation in order to consider whether we are in fact trapped in an unending and unavoidable cycle of growth and decay, or if there are ways to break away from it.</p>\n<p> </p>","language":"eng","license":{"name":"Creative Commons Attribution-NonCommercial-NoDerivatives  4.0","short_name":"CC BY-NC-ND 4.0","text":"Attribution — You must give appropriate credit, provide a link to the license, and indicate if changes were made.

It is important to understand just how we got here to effectively address why we are experiencing such tumultuous political change. Why did the Democrats lose so badly, and how did the previous administration’s blunders contribute to this? How did Trump so easily and effectively woo so many young Americans, and what in particular about his rhetoric was so appealing to so many, given the state of the US during the elections? Most importantly, where may we be headed now? This analysis attempts to provide some context to help answer these questions, and aims to provide a more generous critique of all the moving parts at play, straying away from the bipartisan rhetoric that trips up so many due to the very bipolar nature of American politics.</p>","language":"eng","license":{"name":"Creative Commons Attribution-NonCommercial-NoDerivatives  4.0","short_name":"CC BY-NC-ND 4.0","text":"Attribution — You must give appropriate credit, provide a link to the license, and indicate if changes were made.

Yet, as the role of land and property changed within an American context, so too did the relationship between race and property. With emancipation and urbanization, cities began to confront racial mixing, leading to a movement to racialize not just individual property, but also entire places. This resulting racialization of place became acutely challenging for communities of color in the mid-century with the implementation of the new interstate highway system. While the disastrous impact of the highway system on communities of color has been increasingly researched, scholars have paid far less attention to how race shaped individuals’ propertied realities in the face of these federal and local actions. Using Austin, Texas, as a case study, I examine how the planning for the Interregional Highway 35 (IH-35) threatened Anglo, Black, and Mexican East Austin residents’ property. Ultimately, I assert that each community’s response was shaped by its race-based property realities. I conclude with a brief discussion on the broader implications of urban planning’s spatialization of the intertwining ideology of White racial advantage and property, and what it means to current efforts of racial repair.</p>","language":"eng","license":{"name":"Creative Commons Attribution-NonCommercial  4.0","short_name":"CC BY-NC 4.0","text":"Attribution — You must give appropriate credit, provide a link to the license, and indicate if changes were made.

Despite decreased staffing, the connection to and provision of services from the library to external spaces—both physical and virtual—has increased dramatically. The institution continues to adapt to the dynamic social, economic, and climatic needs of its patrons, especially those most vulnerable among Angelenos. The Central Library and the librarians who sustain it occupy a space between public commons, civil refuge, social services coordinator, and educational resource conglomerate. As public spaces become less accessible, library patrons have more frequently sought access to social and technical services in the Central Library.</p>\n<p>We seek to understand the Central Library’s role in providing essential public services that extend beyond the physical boundaries of the library. Our observations incorporated archival research through collaboration with historians, map specialists, and librarians; spatial analysis through our own observations and interviews, and what the Urban Humanities Initiative program guides termed “multi-sensory attunement (the use of sound, smell, and feel to ‘make sense’ of space).” To do this, we created a \"thickmap\" to call attention to the ways in which the library has provided for the public both within the traditional expectations of what a library and its staff can provide, and well beyond. </p>","language":"eng","license":{"name":"Creative Commons Attribution-NonCommercial  4.0","short_name":"CC BY-NC 4.0","text":"Attribution — You must give appropriate credit, provide a link to the license, and indicate if changes were made.

But Dillon provincializes the US Navy as one in a series of polluters who produced southeastern San Francisco as a wasteland (Voyles, 2015) and, consequently, as one of several political bodies invested in its quick conversion into developable land. Against the displacing forces of redevelopment, Dillon charts a continuous history of Black-led activism. Since the 1960s, Black activists in southeastern SF understood housing, health care, and jobs as fundamentally environmental issues. Dillon argues that we understand their efforts at “counterplanning” as environmental justice work that precedes and exceeds the field’s codification in the 1980s and 90s.</p>\n<p>The book’s third chapter, “The Politics of Environmental Repair” could stand alone as an introduction to contemporary environmental justice, anchored by a concise survey of the federal Superfund trust and a nuanced discussion of the politics of risk that form the foundation for modern cleanup programs. But <em>Toxic City </em>is best approached as a whole: Dillon returns consistently to the question of what it means for activists to appeal to the state for repair when it’s largely the state who has done the harm.

Previous research has shown that certain characteristics of public space, such as greenery and places to gather, provide community building and well-being benefits for students. These spaces may function as “third places” for students, a place to gather outside of home and work, and facilitate the place attachment process, the formation of deep and positive bonds between people and place. This project uses photovoice, a participatory research method, to understand the roles and meanings public open space has for some students at the the University of California San Diego (UCSD). After discussing their selected public open space with 10 students at UCSD, elements which promote place attachment was revealed, including: positive emotions, natural elements, social elements, and logistical elements. For students at UCSD, different spaces serve different functions, ranging from quiet, restorative spaces to popular, park-like spaces. Students highly value greenery in public open space and seem to expect greenery in the form of open lawns, typified by Sungod Lawn. Furthermore, although public open spaces at UCSD do not seem to be “third places”, they still play a crucial role in the lives of students providing meaningful spaces for students to destress and relax. Students showed attachment to these spaces, revealing deep bonds with the places they selected. Public open space on campus should not be evaluated simply by the number of students who use them. Smaller and quieter spaces hold deep meaning for students and contribute important mental health benefits. A variety of thoughtfully planned spaces should be included on college campuses to meet the diverse and varied needs of students. </p>","language":"eng","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.

The results revealed that mental well-being is significantly shaped by the interaction of sociocultural factors, such as family dynamics and pressures, experiences of stereotyping, comfortability with discussing mental health, and expectations surrounding sexuality and gender identity. These findings bring awareness to the significant stigma surrounding mental health topics in South Asian culture and reflect the interventions needed to destigmatize this topic.

History also revealed amenorrhea for the past nine months, menorrhagia three days ago, and oral contraceptive use. Her vitals demonstrated tachycardia to 130s beats per minute but otherwise were normal, consistent with an early stage of hemorrhagic shock.

She underwent emergent gelfoam embolization with interventional radiology and subsequent hematoma evacuation with an obstetrician gynecologist. </p>\n<p><strong>Discussion</strong>: Etiologies of vulvar hematomas fall within two categories: obstetric or non-obstetric. In rare circumstances, hematomas that lack evidence of obstetric or traumatic events are presumed to be of spontaneous artery rupture origin. Vulvar hematomas are a clinical diagnosis but can be challenging. The hallmark symptom is moderate to severe pain that is usually in the perineum but can be in the groin, abdominal and/or buttock regions depending on the size and location of the hematoma. A proper history and physical exam are essential to rule out the differential diagnoses such as vulvar varicosities, folliculitis, Bartholin gland cysts/abscesses or vulvar cancer. Management of vulvar hematomas is not well defined. Ultimately, clinical decision should be based on degree of hemodynamic stability, size of the hematoma, rate of expansion, risk or presence of pressure necrosis, urologic symptoms and presence of unremitting pain. To date, there are three reported spontaneous vulvar hematomas due to pudendal artery rupture and one due to internal iliac artery rupture. To the best of our knowledge, our case represents the second reported account of non-obstetric, non-traumatic spontaneous vulvar hematoma due to internal iliac artery rupture and the first reported account where the resulting hematoma was contralateral to the affected artery. </p>","language":"eng","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 results demonstrate that classical conditioning with footshock is a suitable method for studying fear learning in turtles.  Further, they shed light on the evolution of fear behavior.  Turtles are closely related to the stem amniotes that gave rise to both mammals and reptiles.  Thus, the results demonstrate that fear conditioning is present in turtles and suggest that it was present in the stem amniote ancestors of mammals as well. </p>","language":"eng","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.

Frequent ED utilization has been associated with mental health disorders. However, the association between social determinants of health (SDoH) and frequent ED use is not as well understood. Our objective was to identify associations between frequent ED use and mental health disorders and SDoH among patients visiting 19 Upper Midwest EDs in an integrated health system.  </p>\n<p><strong>Methods:</strong> We conducted a cross-sectional analysis of adult patients presenting to the 19 EDs from July 1, 2020–June 30, 2021.

In this study we examined the acceptability and feasibility of using a method called “experience sampling” to explore factors important to clinician experience in emergency departments (ED). Experience sampling enables the measuring of work experience in real time, with more granular detail than in usual burnout surveys. The approach may reveal new opportunities for improving work experience in emergency medicine at a critical time.</p>\n<p><strong>Methods: </strong>We conducted this pilot study in a large, urban, academic, quaternary care ED. Iterative multidisciplinary focus groups were used to generate a brief, experience-sampling tool that was comprised of three different surveys to assess emergency clinician experience before, during, and after shifts. These were deployed using a smartphone application to a convenience sample of 11 clinicians (three attending physicians, two residents, five physician assistants, and one registered nurse) during four shifts each. A post-pilot survey was also sent to all participants to evaluate their experience of using the tool. Our primary outcome measures were feasibility, assessed by the survey response rates during the pilot, and acceptability, assessed by participant sentiment as expressed in the post-pilot surveys. Secondary outcomes were quantitative- and qualitative- experience data collected using the tool.</p>\n<p><strong>Results:</strong> The overall response rates for pre-shift, on-shift, and post-shift surveys were 79%, 73%, and 91%, respectively. All participants responded to the post-pilot survey and indicated they would be willing to use the experience-sampling tool again in the future. Many participants noted that the simple and open-ended on-shift questions were relatively easy to complete; some also said on-shift survey questions could present added difficulty during busy shifts. Four participants said the exercise of completing surveys itself improved on-shift experience by prompting reflection. Common themes associated with positive experiences included manageable patient volumes, excellent teamwork, interesting cases, adequate staffing, and feeling able to provide adequate care. Common themes associated with negative experiences included crowding, inadequate staffing, feeling overwhelmed, complex patient cases, difficult disposition plans, and feeling unable to provide adequate care.</p>\n<p><strong>Conclusion: </strong>Experience sampling is an acceptable and feasible method for measuring clinician experience in a busy academic ED. Further studies could potentially use this approach to identify targets for reducing burnout in emergency medicine. </p>","language":"eng","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.

Part of this spectrum of presentations is self-directed violence. Self-directed violence involves suicidal acts and non-suicidal self-injuries that can result in serious morbidity and mortality. This study examines characteristics and outcomes of patients who presented to US trauma centers with self-inflicted injuries and identifies factors associated with survival to hospital discharge in this patient population.</p>\n<p><strong>Methods:</strong> We extracted data in a retrospective, observational manner from the 2020 National Trauma Data Bank (NTDB) 2020. The NTDB includes data from over 900 trauma centers (900/2,294 total trauma centers in the United States, 39.2%). We performed a descriptive analysis of characteristics, injury patterns and outcomes. All variables were tabulated by outcome (died: yes/no). We then conducted a multivariable logistic regression using a stepwise technique to identify factors associated with the patients’ survival to hospital discharge.</p>\n<p><strong>Results:</strong> A total of 12,824 patients with self-inflicted injuries were included in this analysis. Their median age was 35 years (interquartile range 25-50), and they were mostly males (74.7%) and White (69.6%). Patients were mostly transported by ground ambulance (78.9%) to Level I (60.6%) and Level II (33.5%) trauma centers. Most patients had a pre-existing condition (70.2%). These included mental/personality disorder (48.2%), alcohol use disorder (11.5%), and substance use disorder (17.7%). The most common mechanism of injury was penetrating trauma (71.6%), followed by blunt trauma (18.0%) and burns (1%). Cutting/piercing was the most common penetrating mechanism (60%) compared with firearm-related trauma (40%). Severe injury (Injury Severity Score ≥ 16) was present in 32.8% of patients. A positive alcohol screen and/or a positive drug screen were reported in 30.2% and 31.2% of patients, respectively. Most patients were admitted to hospital (86%). Overall mortality rate at hospital discharge was 21.7%. We identified Important factors associated with survival to hospital discharge in this patient population.</p>\n<p><strong>Conclusion:</strong> Patients with self-inflicted injuries treated at US trauma centers have high rates of injury severity and a high mortality rate.

However, studies have not focused on these teachers as language learners themselves or considered how the ecology of L1 English Speaking Teachers (ESTs) workplaces may afford or constrain their access to speaking opportunities within the various communities of practice they participate in. This study attempts to fill that gap by examining the experiences of L1 ESTs in Japan and Korea to determine the roles that the workplace and co-workers play in the development of these teachers’ competence in Korean and Japanese. Quantitative survey data were collected from 40 L1 ESTs based in Korea and Japan, and qualitative interviews were conducted with a subset of 15 volunteers from the larger data set. Results show that various stakeholders such as co-workers and students as well as the physical environment serve as gatekeepers to the L1 ESTs’ legitimate peripheral participation as Japanese and Korean speakers in their workplaces. Affordances for language learning in the workplace included speaking the target language (TL) with coworkers, in the classroom, with students, in social activities with TL speakers, and situational factors like the location of their desks within their workplaces. Constraints, on the other hand, included speaking English with coworkers, social activities with other English speakers, the location of their desks, and TL speakers speaking English to them. </p>","language":"eng","license":{"name":"Creative Commons Attribution-NonCommercial-NoDerivatives  4.0","short_name":"CC BY-NC-ND 4.0","text":"Attribution — You must give appropriate credit, provide a link to the license, and indicate if changes were made.

However, data is often scarce for difficult-to-study ecosystems, such as caves and other subterranean environments. Here, we present a taxonomically and geographically consistent database of subterranean spiders from the Italian Western Alps, a coherent biogeographical region with a long history of subterranean fauna diversification. The database (https://doi.org/10.6084/m9.figshare.28524383.v1) comprises 370 geo-referenced subterranean sites (caves, mines, and other artificial subterranean systems). For each site, we provide information on the composition of the spider community (with species richness ranging from 1 to 8 species per site), along with local geomorphological and site features. Collectively, these communities account for 31 unique species and 945 unique geo-referenced occurrence records, which are made available via the Global Biodiversity Information Facility (GBIF: https://www.gbif.org/dataset/72eef995-01bd-44f2-937a-23dbfe66283d). In addition to the database, we provide a phylogeny for all species based on the cytochrome c oxidase subunit I (COI) gene fragment. This, combined with the interoperability of the European subterranean spider trait database (doi: 10.6084/m9.figshare.16574255.v2), enables the estimation of taxonomic, functional, and genetic diversity within these subterranean communities. We illustrate the utility of this database by estimating and mapping taxonomic, functional, and genetic richness across the Western Italian Alps, providing a comprehensive multi-dimensional view of subterranean spider biodiversity. Although restricted in geographical scope, we envision this database as a promising open resource for eco-evolutionary research and hope the broader scientific community will widely use it. Indeed, the joint availability of distribution data, traits, and phylogenetic information allows quantifying ecologically relevant differences among species, identifying functionally unique taxa, and assessing patterns of adaptation and specialization in subterranean environments, among many other questions.</p>","language":"eng","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.

The act of publicly naming an issue and offering an apology is something that is increasingly called for and received within Canadian federal politics. Prime ministers have increasingly engaged in apology work, particularly in relation to the ongoing impacts and consequences of settler colonialism. In the shadow of the Truth and Reconciliation Commission and Final Report, the necessity of owning and giving voice to responsibility for violence perpetrated by the Canadian state against Indigenous children, families, and nations is increasingly obvious. The spring and summer of 2021 have brought about the research (both ground- penetrating software and archival) to relocate suspected previously unrecorded and/or unmarked burials of Indigenous children on the grounds of former residential schools. Prime Minister Stephen Harper’s 2008 apology for residential schools marked an important first apology by a sitting prime minister for residential schools. In 2021, Prime Minister Justin Trudeau offered a more informal apology, in the aftermath of the research to relocate potential unmarked burial sites at residential schools. These two apologies offered by sitting Canadian prime ministers regarding residential schools occur on either side of the important event of the Truth and Reconciliation Commission, socially and politically coordinating the discourse of reconciliation. This research study examines the texts of the 2021 and 2008 public apologies for residential schools to render visible the often-disappeared patterns and conventions of the language and context of settler apology. This paper picks up the “age of apology” and questions whether the contemporary state responses to the suspected unmarked graves at residential schools demonstrate the continuation or the recession of the deployment of public apology as the major vehicle of settler colonial discourses of reconciliation. Ultimately, based on a comparison of these two apologies, this paper argues that official state apologies remain largely performative. Despite the transformative impacts of the commission, the “age of apology” persists, evidenced by similar strategies and discursive markers in apologies issued by prime ministers both before and after the commission and final report. This study examines the continuity of apology politics and the role these apologies hold in perpetuating settler obfuscation of responsibility in ongoing colonial violence.  </p>\n<p> </p>","language":"eng","license":{"name":"Creative Commons Attribution-NonCommercial  4.0","short_name":"CC BY-NC 4.0","text":"Attribution — You must give appropriate credit, provide a link to the license, and indicate if changes were made.

Schoolcraft’s <em>Algic Researches</em> was the first significant collection of authentic Native American tales. However, it was so flawed that its import has been generally dismissed by scholars, who have shown more interest in critiquing Schoolcraft than in studying the stories themselves. It has long been known some of the manuscripts by William Johnston were in the Schoolcraft papers at the Library of Congress. I have now transcribed these and many others, restoring the originals modified by Schoolcraft for his books. The result is not only an opportunity to give credit to the Ojibwe-speaking mixed-blood collectors and translators of these tales but also to evaluate the modifications Schoolcraft made. It turns out most of the divergences from later professional collections are in the originals and cannot be attributed to Schoolcraftsmanship.

Through an ethnographic case study approach, the lived experiences of seven<em> poʻokumu/poʻokula</em> (out of fourteen possible participants) were meticulously gathered via surveys and individual and group interviews and subjected to a thorough coding process. The research uncovered key themes in modern <em>Kanaka ʻōiwi</em> (Native Hawaiian) leadership. The study found that all participants prioritized the integration of <em>ʻIke, ʻŌlelo,</em> and <em>Nohona Hawaiʻi</em> (Hawaiian knowledge, language, and way of life) with academic content to educate their <em>haumana</em> (students). In addition, all principals emphasized <em>haumana</em>-centered learning, <em>kaiāulu</em> (community) collaboration and support, and transformational leadership. They highlighted the importance of developing <em>kumu</em> (teachers) to implement Hawaiian culture-based education. Furthermore, the principals underscored the concept of <em>kuleana hana</em> (sense of responsibility) as central to their leadership. These findings provide significant insights into Indigenous leadership and the role of culturally responsive education in Hawaiian-focused charter schools. The study's implications suggest that embracing Indigenous values and practices can enhance educational leadership and foster an environment that supports academic excellence, indigenous knowledge, and cultural preservation.</p>","language":"eng","license":{"name":"Creative Commons Attribution-NonCommercial  4.0","short_name":"CC BY-NC 4.0","text":"Attribution — You must give appropriate credit, provide a link to the license, and indicate if changes were made.
