ABSTRACT The central engine in long gamma-ray bursts (GRBs) is thought to be a compact object produced by the core collapse of massive stars, but its exact nature (black hole or millisecond magnetar) is still debatable. Although the central engine of GRB collapsars is hidden to direct observation, its properties may be imprinted on the accompanying electromagnetic signals. We aim to decipher the generic properties of central engines that are consistent with prompt observations of long GRBs detected by the Burst Alert Telescope (BAT) on board the Neil Gehrels Swift Observatory. Adopting a generic model for the central engine, in which the engine power and activity time-scale are independent of each other, we perform Monte Carlo simulations of long GRBs produced by jets that successfully breakout from the star. Our simulations consider the dependence of the jet breakout time-scale on the engine luminosity and the effects of the detector’s flux threshold. The two-dimensional (2D) distribution of simulated detectable bursts in the gamma-ray luminosity versus gamma-ray duration plane is consistent with the observed one for a range of parameter values describing the central engine. The intrinsic 2D distribution of simulated collapsar GRBs peaks at lower gamma-ray luminosities and longer durations than the observed one, a prediction that can be tested in the future with more sensitive detectors. Black hole accretors, whose power and activity time are set by the large-scale magnetic flux through the progenitor star and stellar structure, respectively, are compatible with the properties of the central engine inferred by our model.

This article engages with Swyngedouw’s puzzle, that is, how is surplus-value production under capitalism conceptualised given the entanglement of humans and non-human entities. It identifies how Swyngedouw’s socionature – a concept/way to express the oneness of human and non-human under capitalism – posed a critique to the tendency of labour-centred analysis in Marxist thought such as Neil Smith’s concept of ‘production of nature’ but did not engage with how surplus-value is produced. This article makes visible the role of non-wage-labour in surplus-value production through reference to Moore’s concept of value-relations and oikeios.

This paper argues for thinking about religious commitments as different in kind from everyday ordinary understandings of the world. It argues against the straightforward assertion from the cognitive science of religion that belief in the supernatural is easy. That is, there is a way in which intuitions of invisible presence come very easily to people. Yet to sustain that belief commitment is hard, especially when the invisible other is omnipotent and benevolent. Here I suggest that it makes more sense to understand faith commitments as a kind of frame that coexists with everyday commitments. The approach shares much with Neil van Leeuwen’s understanding of religious commitments and factual commitments as being held with different kinds of cognitive attitudes. Here I suggest that people engage the faith frame the way engage play and fiction—except that in the case of faith, the commitment is a serious claim about the world.

New Textualism is ascendant. Elevated to prominence by the late Justice Antonin Scalia and championed by others like Justice Neil Gorsuch, the method of interpretation occupies an increasingly dominant place in American jurisprudence. Yet, this Comment argues the proponents of New Textualism acted unfairly to reach this lofty perch. To reach this conclusion, this Comment develops and applies a framework to evaluate the rhetoric behind New Textualism: the rhetorical canons of construction. Through the rhetorical canons, this Comment demonstrates that proponents of New Textualism advance specious arguments, declare other methods illegitimate hypocritically, refuse to engage with the merits of their opponents’ arguments, and believe their method provides the best plain meaning.

Full textAbstract:
Abstract The central engine of gamma-ray bursts (GRBs) remains an open and cutting-edge topic in the era of multimessenger astrophysics. X-ray plateaus appear in some GRB afterglows, which are widely considered to originate from the spindown of magnetars. According to the stable magnetar scenario of GRBs, an X-ray plateau and a decay phase ∼t −2 should appear in X-ray afterglows. Meanwhile, the “normal” X-ray afterglow is produced by the external shock from a GRB fireball. We analyze the Neil Gehrels Swift GRB data, then find three gold samples that have an X-ray plateau and a decay phase ∼t −2 superimposed on the jet-driven normal component. Based on these features of the lightcurves, we argue that the magnetars should be the central engines of these three GRBs. Future joint multimessenger observations might further test this possibility, which can then be beneficial to constrain GRB physics.

Full textAbstract:
This paper examines the treatment and characterization of women, sex, identity, and gender in the lesser known or studied comics of Alan Moore, Neil Gaiman, and Grant Morrison in order to discern what such an analysis tells us about each author's engagement with the issues and debates surrounding these sociopolitical and cultural phenomena. The purpose of this study is to discern how three of the most influential writers of contemporary comics books engage with themes of gender, identity, sexuality, and trauma and, in this way, set precedents that have come to be debated and critiqued in contemporary comics scholarship and fandom. It reveals that all three writers ostensibly engage with progressive imaginings of the self, sexuality, identity, and gender as mercurial, de-centred, and subject to play and change in each of the chosen case study characters. It finds that while ostensibly progressive, all three writers simultaneously recirculate certain conceptualizations of the relationships between identity, trauma, and sexuality by taking the histories in which they emerged as assumed.

Full textAbstract:
Neill Blomkamp's 2015 science fiction film Chappie engages with the familiar narrative trope of robot sentience. Blomkamp confronts viewers with a naïve and vulnerable childlike robot protagonist that is more human and likeable than any of the stilted and stereotypical real human characters in the film. It is the mechanical creature with which the viewer readily identifies and sympathises. Blomkamp facilitates, not only between his characters, but also with the audience, a kinship of the sort that Donna Haraway in Staying with trouble calls affinity groups or assemblages of 'oddkin'. The immediately sympathetic response of the viewing audience to the mechanical robot is a key strategy in the way that Blomkamp applies irony in this film, which Haraway also identifies as central to her idea of the cyborg as an alternative and potentially liberatory myth. In this article, I engage in a close reading of the film, focusing on the broad network of speculative and science fiction narrative traditions within which this film operates. I consider possible reasons why the film was misread and met with criticism when it was first released. I also specifically investigate the strategies and techniques Blomkamp uses in his depiction of the robot character and how his use of its childlikeness and vulnerability and its engagement with violence and sacrifice are central to the film's ironic engagement with the central argument about the dangers of dehumanisation and the need to recuperate humaneness.

Full textAbstract:
This study was designed and developed methodologically based on the operation of the ecological niche of the demand of the tourist system (based on the models of Roberto Boullón, Neil Leiper, and the World Tourism Organization). It was carried out from a systemic-mechanical approach that revolves around the well-being, health, and the decision of the demand when traveling to a tourist destination. This study however stresses that one of the main causes of mortality in the world is stress. As a result, many tourism modalities should be recipes that mitigate and/or regulate the different levels of global tourism demand. In the present essay, it was clearly explained that the faster the rotation of the two rotors of the ecological niche of the demand, the more stress accumulate their bodies. As a result of this, the acceleration will bring about the tastes, preferences, needs, demands, and tendencies of the tourists. Necessary inputs facilitates the operation and development of a destination and/or tourism system. Additionally, it allow the servers of the supply engine to adapt and/or mold to these demand inputs to achieve their satisfaction to the fullest, and also mitigates the stress that haunts them.

Full textAbstract:
Reflective practice is proven as an evidence-based approach in education science. It guides learners to actively engage in critical evaluation of their thoughts, actions, and experience to construct a meaningful framework of understanding. Implementation of reflective practice in learning nurtures students’ self-directed learning to be accountable for their learning journey (Knowles, Gilbourne, Borrie, & Nevill, 2001). Eventually, they can experience deep learning (Parry, Walsh, Larsen, & Hogan, 2012), with the activation of active thinking (Louis & Sutton, 1991) and working memory. The growth of reflective practice requires a high level of attentional control, and metacognition to produce a large spectrum of content knowledge with various mental languages (emotive, volitive, and cognitive). However, the contents of reflective practice have to be guided with personalised feedbacks by the instructors to foster the quality of reflective practice. The instructor has to be catered with the structured rubric of evaluation to provide professional feedback to the student's reflective writing. Therefore, in this study, each reflective writing produced by the student was evaluated based on five categories of the reflective style produced by Bruno & Gilardi (2014).

Artificial intelligence is everywhere – from the apps on our phones to the algorithms of search engines. Without us noticing, the AI revolution has arrived. But what does this mean for the world of design? The first volume in a two-book series, Architecture in the Age of Artificial Intelligence introduces AI for designers and considers its positive potential for the future of architecture and design. Explaining what AI is and how it works, the book examines how different manifestations of AI will impact the discipline and profession of architecture. Highlighting current case-studies as well as near-future applications, it shows how AI is already being used as a powerful design tool, and how AI-driven information systems will soon transform the design of buildings and cities. Far-sighted, provocative and challenging, yet rooted in careful research and cautious speculation, this book, written by architect and theorist Neil Leach, is a must-read for all architects and designers – including students of architecture and all design professionals interested in keeping their practice at the cutting edge of technology.

The main subject of this dialogue is facing, accepting, and yielding to death. Nell is managing physical decline and finding meaning in mortal time, recurrent themes in our conversations. She succinctly describes her plan for making sense of death, but she recognizes that her self-prescription is not easy to fulfill. Facing death requires detaching from activities that give meaning and link Nell to the broader world. On most days, she lacks the energy to engage the outside world; she is housebound. In his autobiography, Dr. Paul Kalanithi presents an example of yielding as he describes his slow decline due to lung cancer. Nell is facing death directly like Dr. Kalanithi, with grace, until the very end, literally editing from her deathbed. Nell addresses a central question throughout these dialogues: What makes life worth living when death is imminent? We discuss security objects and Nell tells me about parish priest Fr. Jay, who gives her a ceramic angel when he administers the Sacrament of Anointing of the Sick. She finds comfort in consoling iconography and holding on to her rosary, a crucifix, angels, and the Buddha.

Abstract How big an enterprise is foreign assistance by the U.S. government to police abroad? What agencies do it? And what forms does it take? The fact is we don’t know. At the present time, there are no authoritative estimates of the amount of police assistance, no roster of assistance programs, and no listing of the departments and agencies, or units within them, authorized to engage in such work (Neild 2001, 2004).

This chapter presents five arguments in favor of the moral permissibility of, and even a duty to engage in, physician-assisted suicide both to end suffering and for other reasons in those who are and are not terminally ill. It considers objections to these sorts of arguments presented by David Velleman from a Kantian perspective and by Neil Gorsuch (now associate justice of the U.S. Supreme Court) who argues against intentionally causing death. The chapter considers how to identify intention, the significance of it for moral and legal permissibility, and the role of the Doctrine of Double Effect in arguments about assisted suicide. It also deals with the difference between assisted suicide for the good of some enabling versus causing harm to others.

Abstract This chapter examines intermedial connections between two visual iterations of Nell Dunn’s Up the Junction, a collection of observational stories published in 1963: Wednesday Play, a TV series directed by Ken Loach in 1965, and a feature film directed by Peter Collinson in 1968. These were based on the author’s cross-class experiences of living and working in Battersea in the late 1950s, taking the form of reported conversations and descriptive prose. Most critical commentary relates to Loach’s adaptation of Dunn’s stories. The privileging of the televisual expression of Dunn’s work, however, tends to obscure the extensive intermedial network of relations surrounding Up the Junction as a multifaceted critical experiment. The chapter demonstrates how the texts engage with complex fields, intersecting themes, and “traces” that illustrate how a basic idea is circulated within different media forms and styles. The analytical foci include Susan Benson’s line drawings in Dunn’s book and their “figural” relationship with her prose, the visualisation of sociological discourses through documentary techniques, the use of popular music, and the impact of monochrome and colour aesthetics. An incident (“The Gold Blouse”) that features in the stories and two visual texts are compared to map the effects of different emphases within intermedial exchange.

This chapter explores the methodological and ideological challenges and opportunities faced in an urban soundscapes project based in the small, multicultural, and post-industrial city of Limerick, Ireland, which is currently undergoing a process of urban “regeneration” following decades of challenges (high unemployment rates, rapid demographic shifts brought about by global migration, social disenfranchisement in marginalized neighborhoods, gangland criminality, and considerable stigmatization by the national media). Facilitated by an interdisciplinary team involving ethnomusicologists, urban sociologists, and information technology specialists, the project combines ethnographic approaches from urban ethnomusicology (Hemetek & Reyes 2007, Jurková 2012) with mapping practices from soundscape studies (Murray-Schafer 1977), through an evocation of “critical citizenship” (Nell et al. 2012), in order to generate a soundscapes model that has the individual as a networked, social being and creative critical citizen at its core. LimerickSoundscapes invites participants from a wide range of backgrounds, sourced through pre-existing routes and pathways (Finnegan 1989—including clubs, charities, educational organizations, and societies—to engage in basic sound recording training on small, handheld devices. These sonic flaneurs or “citizen collectors” make short recordings of the sounds of their city, which are shared on an interactive website. For the ethnomusicologists on the research team two tensions emerge. The first is around the research model, which makes collectors critical collaborators that has implications for the open, creative, and participatory process by having an underpinning social activist agenda. The second relates to stepping outside the bounds of musicking (Small 1998) and how that changes the more traditional role of the ethnomusicologist. The chapter teases out these challenges and performs a preliminary evaluation on the efficacy of the project.

Full textAbstract:
Abstract Interlanguage pragmatics (!LP) is a second-generation hybrid. As its name betrays, ILP belongs to two different disciplines, both of which are interdisciplinary. As a branch of Second Language Acquisition Research, ILP is one of several specializations in interlanguage studies, contrasting with interlanguage phonology, morphology, syntax, and semantics. As a subset of pragmatics, ILP figures as a socio-linguistic, psycholinguistic, or simply linguistic enterprise, depending on how one defines the scope of “pragmatics.” For thorough discussion of definitional issues, see Leech (1983) and Levinson (1983). The perspective on pragmatics we adopt is an action-theoretical one, viewing pragmatics as the study of people’s comprehension and production of linguistic action in context. lnterlanguage pragmatics has consequently been defined as the study of nonnative speakers’ use and acquisition of linguistic action patterns in a second language (L2) (e.g., Kasper, 1989b). Yet tying interlanguage pragmatics to nonnative speakers, or language learners, may narrow its scope too restrictively. As Blum-Kulka (1991; Blum-Kulka & Sheffer, Chapter 10) demonstrates through the case of American immigrants to Israel, speakers fully competent in two languages may create an intercultural style of speaking that is both related to and distinct from the styles prevalent in the two substrata, a style on which they rely regardless of the language being used. The intercultural style hypothesis is supported by many studies of cross-cultural communication, notably interactional sociolinguistics (e.g., Gumperz, 1982; Tannen, 1985) and research into the pragmatic behavior of immigrant populations across generations (e.g., Clyne, 1979; Clyne, Ball, & Neil, 1991). It also receives strong anecdotal support, worthy of systematic investigation, by highly proficient nonnative speakers whose L2 conversational behavior carries interlanguage-specific traits, and who claim at the same time that they do not abide by native norms any more when conversing in their native language. For instance, one of us was told by several of her Chinese students that in response to invitations and offers they wish to accept, they no longer engage in ritual refusal, as required by traditional Chinese culture. Some of her Japanese students claim that they are much more direct in their interaction in Japanese than they used to be before extended exposure to Western ways. Emerging intercultural styles, so prevalent in the international academic community, deserve interlanguage pragmaticists' close attention. Hence, it appears useful to include under ILP the study of intercultural styles brought about through language contact, the conditions for their emergence and change, the relationship to their substrata, and their communicative effectiveness. A look at the literature on ILP (cf. the overview in Kasper & Dahl, 1991), however, suggests that the populations studied have invariably been nonnative speakers, reflecting the status of ILP as a branch of second language research. While the present collection largely follows this line, Blum-Kulka and Sheffer (Chapter 10) extend the perspective to include native speakers' intercultural styles.
