This study employs thematic analysis of discus…
Which veterans in the Supportive Services for Veteran Families program receive temporary financial assistance and why
The VA Supportive Services for Veteran Families (SSVF) program is one of the largest housing assistance programs in the US. One of the key components of this program is temporary financial assistance (TFA) which can be used for rent, security deposits, utilities, and other housing-related expenses. The objective of this paper was to identify characteristics of SSVF enrollees that are associated with receiving any TFA and the amount of TFA receive…

County-level Predictors of Growth in Community-based Primary Care Use Among Veterans
BACKGROUND: The 2014 Choice Act expanded the Veterans Health Administration's (VA) capacity to purchase services for VA enrollees from community providers, yet little is known regarding the growth of Veterans' primary care use in community settings. OBJECTIVES: The aim was to measure county-level growth in VA community-based primary care (CBPC) penetration following the Choice Act and to assess whether CBPC penetration increased in rural counties…
Fantasy Medievalism and Screen Media

It gives an overview of the medievalist features of the genres before discussing how they are used in a range of fantasy screen media from Legend to Highlander and Game of Thrones to The Witcher . There has been a historical move from the representatio…

Unsettling Notions of Planning Competence
Drawing on the instructor and student experiences of a service-based learning course with Indigenous peoples, this paper considers how studios develop the skills and competencies outlined by accrediting bodies. Yet, this approach to teaching and learning can also unsettle students’ sense of professional competence and faith in the usefulness of conventional planning methods. In this case, unsettlement was a valuable and productive outcome that su…
Angel Song
In 1914 the German music critic and theorist Oscar Schmitz penned his well-known diatribe Das Land ohne Musik (Munich, 1914), cementing England’s position as a culturally benighted and marginal land. For all its apparent long-lasting effect, Schmitz’s criticism was largely political in nature; nationalism stood at its heart. One hundred years later the then MP for Henley, Boris Johnson, felt the need to address Schmitz’s critique in a national ne…
Effects of Extracurricular Participation on the Internalizing Problems and Intrapersonal Strengths of Youth in a System of Care
Although extracurricular participation has been linked to positive youth outcomes in the general population, no research to date has examined benefits for youth diagnosed with mental health challenges. Youth in systems of care (SOCs) receive a variety of services and supports that could help them capitalize on this potential for positive development, such as access to flexible funding to support recreational interests. However, research has not e…

The Political Domain Goes to Twitter
The argument is twofold. One, the character of political communication on Twitter is sufficiently different from the general character of the Twitter stream, from the "firehose", as it is known that political communication should be considered as a separable domain of communication. Specifically, retweets, urls, and hashtags are used far more frequently in political communication than is true for the full stream of messages and that reflects comm…
China’s New Sorrow
This article analyzes the effect of post-1949 policies on minority peoples in China’s watershed—Qinghai province. Salar and Tibetan peoples had lived in relative harmony for centuries in Xunhua County. Access to the Tibetan highlands and a monopoly on wool production had provided Tibetan herders with an upper hand. New policies that encouraged agricultural production over the course of the twentieth century not only brought radical changes to the…
The Kids Are All Right
RUN A FEW WEB SEARCHES FOR the term “cultural turn,” and you will begin to grasp the scope of an increasingly viral concept. In Google Books alone, you will find more than 100,000 citations, the bibliographic traces of the concept’s extended wandering.1 Switch to the search engine at OCLC WorldCat, ArticleFirst, or ECO, and the numbers become less daunting, somewhere on the order of a few hundred hits. In these more specialized databases, however…
To bite or not to bite! A questionnaire-based survey assessing why some people are bitten more than others by midges
This study suggests that midges prefer to bite men that are tall and women that have a large BMI, and that the tendency for a child to be bitten or not could be inherited from their parent. The study is questionnaire-based; therefore, the interpretation of the results may be limited by the subjectivity of the answers given by the respondents. Although the results are relevant only to the Scottish biting midge, the approach used here could be usef…

Voyages of Discovery
Between 1768 and 1779, Captain James Cook of the British Royal Navy made three voyages of exploration for purposes of scientific research. On each voyage he kept a log of scenes and adventures. Cook's reputation rose steadily with each voyage largely because Europeans were fascinated with the romance of discovery as well as reports of sexual licence in Tahiti and other Polynesian islands

The Arts of Deception
These two books are much alike: Both are thick descriptive cultural histories of Barnumesque humbug and even share a common publisher and origins as University of California, Berkeley, dissertations. Still, they are not at all redundant and are worth reading together. James W. Cook's The Arts of Deception draws on the well-known theme of the nineteenth-century urban confidence man to explore commercial exhibits based on outrageous deception. He f…
