Effects of distributed practice on the acquisition of verb-noun collocations
Given the importance of collocational knowledge for second language learning, how collocation learning can be facilitated is an important question. The present study examined the effects of three different practice schedules on collocation learning: node massed, collocation massed, and collocation spaced. In the node-massed schedule, three collocations for the same node verb were studied on the same day. In the collocation-massed schedule, three …
The “ready-to-hand” test
This article assesses the availability of essential diagnostic tests in primary health care facilities in two districts in Sierra Leone. In addition to evaluating whether a test is physically present at a facility, it extends the concept of availability to include whether equipment is functional and whether infrastructure, systems, personnel and resources are in place to allow a particular test to be “ready to hand”, that is, available for immedi…
Rethinking remote warfare
Remote Warfare is a product of the bellicose twenty-first century in which we live. Promises of a century, that would shun violence, revere international law, and outshine the darkness of the Cold War, have long since fallen by the wayside. Instead, the tragic events of 9/11, 2001, led the USA and its allies down the path to war and to the unforeseen consequences that transpired. As Sir Michael Howard argued back in 2006, ‘President Bush’s declar…
Arctic drones - A new security dilemma
Over 100 countries now have a military drone programme comprised of either armed or unarmed systems. These drones are used to project power, fulfil national security objectives and signal political interest in disputed regions. As the climate crisis transforms parts of the Arctic, considerable investment is taking place in remote systems that can both monitor for 'unwanted guests' and engage in military activity. In this context, drones, specific…

Carabelli Trait in Australian Twins
We assessed the intra- and inter-observer reliability of two methods of scoring or categorizing Carabelli trait in both primary and permanent dentitions (Hanihara, 1961; Dahlberg, 1963). By using dental casts obtained from twins, we also compared the expression of Carabelli trait within and between monozygotic (MZ) co-twins to clarify the ontogenetic processes leading to different forms of trait expression. While intra-observer concordance rates …
The American Culture of War
The strategic utility and perceived morality of airpower are what led to its inclusion within the foundations of American warfare after World War I. Proportionate and discriminate targeting of the enemy became the mantra of U.S. officials, many of whom had watched aghast as the “Old World” of Britain and Germany had been embroiled in a disproportionate and indiscriminate war of attrition from 1914 through 1918. World War I had not only resulted i…
Virtuous drones
The use of drones in recent conflicts by Western states has proved controversial. Obama's ‘kill list’ and the use of remote ‘execution’ have inspired passionate debates about the ethics and use of these systems. Proponents of their use highlight their alleged ‘precision’ and make the point that such weapons may prevent the necessity for ‘boots on the ground’; at least in certain contexts. In this article we wish to build on the idea of drones as …

Dying for Peace? Fatality Trends for United Nations Peacekeeping Personnel
While malicious acts by insurgents, rebels and tribes have attracted considerable attention in recent years; peacekeeping fatalities are most often caused by accident and illness. Yet despite this, malicious acts remain the major focus of journalistic reporting and academic study. This article places malicious acts into a broader context and highlights the more pressing threats posed by accident and illness
Drawing Out the Drawdown
European (British and French) geostrategy in the Indo–Pacific
The rise and integration of the Indian Ocean region and the Pacific rim over the past decade – into an 'Indo–Pacific' zone – and the emerging competition between the region's major powers, has drawn increasing attention. However, France and the United Kingdom, while long established in the Indo–Pacific, are often overlooked, even though they are both themselves starting to refocus on the region. Paris has consolidated a 'quadrilateral' of interlo…
International Human Rights and Indigenous Peoples
This exciting new book is the only one of its kind. International Human Rights and Indigenous Peoples (Aspen Elective Series) will be the first published compilation of materials and commentary intended for use in courses focusing on the subject of peoples within the international human rights system. S. James Anaya, co-author of the well-known casebook, International Human Rights: Problems of Law, Policy and Practice, uses carefully edited mater…
From ‘Civilian Power’ to ‘Global Power
By articulating discourse theory to build on the concepts of ‘strategic culture’, ‘security culture’ and ‘grand strategy’, we argue that the European Union has adopted a ‘global power’ approach since approximately 1999, having been previously constituted as a ‘civilian power’ since the 1970s. We suggest this paradigmatic shift was influenced by a growing discourse coalition of ‘euro‐strategists’, which mobilized to prevent another European foreig…

Red River Waterway Project; summary of ground-water studies by the U.S. Geological Survey, 1962-85
The U.S. Geological Survey (Survey), in cooperation with the U.S. Army, Corps of Engineers (Corps), investigated various aspects of the ground-water system of the Red River alluvium in relation to the Red River Waterway Project, from 1962-85.Beginning in 1962 the Survey made preliminary estimates of the effects of the construction of locks and dams on ground-water levels.The area affected by high ground-water levels was estimated to increase by m…
Income Maintenance Experimentation and Welfare Policy
The Seattle and Denver income maintenance experiment culminated the most ambitious policy analytic experiment undertaken in the United States during the 1960s and 1970s. After 12 years of research and $110 million spent, the Carter Administration sat down to reform welfare policy with the initial experimental findings in hand. Its experience underscores the difficulty of using analysis for policymaking when the policy arena exhibits high value co…
