Variation across Regions and Demographics in African American Language Morphosyntax
Social media data and computational tools have become increasingly powerful alternatives to traditional methods of data collection and annotation for sociolinguistic research. While not without their own drawbacks, these resources can help address critical problems faced by researchers, such as sparse data, the observer's paradox, and annotating corpora at scale. This article presents a Twitter dataset of 227 million conversational messages acros…

How white is the global elite? An analysis of race, gender and network structure
Research on elites often utilizes network analysis to describe and analyse the interrelationships among elites and how their prominence varies by demographic characteristics. We examine the diversity of global elites through an analysis of the board members of large corporations, think tanks, international organizations, and transnational policy planning groups. Using new data, we provide the first descriptive picture of global elite networks in …
Environmental and economic impacts of solar‐powered integrated greenhouses
Greenhouse vegetable production plays a vital role in providing year‐round fresh vegetables to global markets, achieving higher yields, and using less water than open‐field systems, but at the expense of increased energy demand. This study examines the life cycle environmental and economic impacts of integrating semitransparent organic photovoltaics (OPVs) into greenhouse designs. We employ life cycle assessment to analyze six environmental impac…
From Isolation to Community
This exploratory pilot study analyzes the role a facilitated neighborhood intervention, geared towards meeting one's neighbors and discussing local needs and civic action, can play in moving individuals from isolation to community. It focuses on whether NeighborCircles (NC), a neighborhood intervention run by a nonprofit in Massachusetts, is associated with increases in social capital (SC); the main constructs used are Perkins and Long's (2002) 4…
Croig Cave
Activity within caves provides an important element of the later prehistoric and historic settlement pattern of western Scotland. This contribution reports on a small-scale excavation within Croig Cave, on the coast of north-west Mull, that exposed a 1.95 m sequence of midden deposits and cave floors that date between c 1700 BC and AD 1400. Midden analysis indicated the processing of a diverse range of small fish and the collection of shellfish t…
Martyn Barber Bronze and the Bronze Age
Middle Bronze Age dirks and rapiers from Scotland
Several Middle Bronze Age dirks and rapiers from Scotland are fully published for the first time; these include relatively recent discoveries from Loch Glashan, Argyll, and Skares, Ayrshire, Perthshire, and Poolewe
A group of bronze socketed axes from Eildon Mid Hill, near Melrose, Roxburghshire
In 1982, a group of seven socketed axes was found on the lower western slopes of Eildon Mid Hill, Ettrick and Lauderdale District, Borders Region. Although recovered from redeposited soil, the axes probably represent a hoard of the Ewart Park phase of the late Bronze Age. The find reinforces what appears to be a significant local concentration of contemporary metalwork around the Eildon Hills
Six Prehistoric Phalerae in the London Museum and a Discussion of other Phalerae from the British Isles
Six prehistoric bronze phalerae in the London Museum are published and other examples from Britain and Ireland are discussed. The phalerae are of continental manufacture or inspiration and show contacts with central Germany in Ha B I; Alpine Lake Pillages in Ha B 3; Austria, Bavaria, and Belgium in Ha C. The possible uses of phalerae as personal ornament, horse-gear, and shieldbosses are considere
