Ardella Magnaemirabilis (Coleoptera: Scarabaeidae: Melolonthinae: Ardellini), A New Scarabaeoid Species, Genus And Tribe From The Southwestern United States, M. J. Paulsen

Insecta Mundi

An interesting new taxon of scarabaeoid beetle is described from western Texas, USA. The remark­ably small chafer, Ardella magnaemirabilis new genus, new species (Coleoptera: Scarabaeidae: Melolonthinae: Ardellini) is described and compared to other diminutive scarabaeoid genera from drier habitats of the southwestern USA. The tribe Ardellini, new tribe, is erected to accommodate the unusual genus.

After a few centuries with entomologists scouring the continent, the discovery of unknown Nearctic scarab gen­era is no longer commonplace. The western United States, in particular, is biogeographically diverse with pockets of endemism that makes such discoveries still possible, driving collectors to continue sampling …

Gamit Ng Wikang Filipino Sa Proseso Ng Paglilitis: Kaso Ng Children In Conflict With The Law Sa Makati City Hall–Rtc Sangay 3, 136, 140, At 144, Pherese Sulit, Gerard Concepcion

Malay Journal

Problemang maituturing dahil Ingles ang wikang ginagamit sa mga korte ng Pilipinas. Kung hindi sanay o maalam ang nasasakdal sa wikang ginagamit ng hukuman partikular sa kabuuang proseso ng paglilitis, malaki ang posibilidad na magdulot ito ng hindi pagkakaunawaan. Natatangi ang sitwasyon ng Children in Conflict with the Law (CICL) sa sistemang legal ng bansa. Liban sa ipinagkakaloob sa kanila ang alternatibong pagpataw ng kaparusahan na kaiba sa mga kadalasang sumasailalim sa prosesong legal, sila rin ang sektor na kadalasang hindi sanay gumamit ng wikang Ingles. Bunsod ng kanilang sitwasyon, mahalaga ang nagiging gamit ng wikang Filipino sa kabuuang proseso …

Ilang Repleksiyon Sa “Utak Mo May Covid” Bilang Sinulti At Ekspresyon Sa Social Media, Mark Anthony Angeles

Malay Journal

Madalas gamitin sa social media ang ekspresyong “utak mo may COVID.” Mayroon itong temporal na dimensiyon, dahil nakatali ito sa pagbansag ng World Health Organization sa sakit na dala ng SARS-CoV-2 bilang COVID-19, noong 11 Pebrero 2020. Sa pag-aaral na ito, ginamit ang salitang Sebuwano na sinulti bilang katumbas ng lingguwistikong terminong utterance. Tataluntunin ang pinagmulan nito, bilang deribasyon ng isang ekspresyong tumahak sa ibang direksiyon sa social media. Hihimayin din ang leksikal at semantikong kahulugan ng bawat salita sa ekspresyon, para patunayan kung bakit naging epektibo ang mga ito, sa pagdaan ng maraming taon, bilang isang retorika ng pang-iinsulto. …

Bakit Dapat Manaliksik Sa Filipino Ang Mga Pilipino?: Kritik Sa Scopus-Sentrismo Ng Mga Unibersidad At Ahensiyang Pang- Edukasyon At/O Pampananaliksik Sa Pilipinas, David Michael San Juan

Malay Journal

Ang Scopus ay isang database ng mga piling journal na itinuturing nilang de-kalidad/de-kalibre. Pag-aari ito ng Netherlands- based na kumpanyang Elsevier, at isa rin sa mga karaniwang batayan ng mga panukatan (metrics) sa mga pagraranggo ng mga unibersidad sa buong daigdig. Bunsod ng nabanggit na realidad, kapansin-pansin ang pag-iral ng Scopus-sentrismo—ang pagkiling sa Scopus bilang isa sa mga pangunahing batayan ng de-kalidad na saliksik – sa mga polisiya ng mga unibersidad sa bansa at ng mga ahensiyang pang-edukasyon at/o pampananaliksik. Sa ganitong konteksto, layunin ng papel na ito na 1) makapagbigay ng makabuluhang impormasyon tungkol sa Scopus at sistema ng …

Sunurang Pagtamo Ng Mga Batayang Pangungusap Ng Filipino Bilang Ikalawang Wika Ng Mga Mag-Aaral Na Tsino, Hapones, At Koreano: Isang Panimulang Pag-Aaral, Ronel O. Laranjo

Malay Journal

Matagal nang pinag-aaralan ng mga banyagang mag-aaral ang Filipino bilang ikalawang wika sa loob at labas ng Pilipinas. Karamihan sa mga pananaliksik kaugnay rito ay nakatutok sa pagdebelop ng pedagohiya upang mas epektibong maituro at matutuhan ang estruktura ng wikang pambansa. Nagbibigay ng bagong perspektiba ang pananaliksik na ito sa pamamagitan ng pagtutok sa mismong proseso ng pagkatuto at pagtamo ng Filipino bilang ikalawang wika. Gamit ang Teorya ng Panggitnang Wika, layunin ng pananaliksik na ito na matukoy ang sunurang pagtamo ng mga batayang pangungusap at mga morpema sa loob nito sa pamamagitan ng pagsusuri sa mga estrukturang napoprodyus ng …

Rabb–Venable Excellence In Ophthalmology Research Program: Contributions To Ophthalmology Workforce Diversity, O'Rese J. Knight, Dolly Ann Padovani-Claudio, Clarisse C. Croteau-Chonka, Mildred M.G. Olivier, Eydie G. Miller-Ellis

Journal of Academic Ophthalmology

The 2016 Health Resources and Services Administration, Health Workforce Analysis estimated that ophthalmology is the surgical specialty with the greatest physician shortage. Based on their estimates, the ophthalmology workforce needs to expand by 33% to 22,690 full time equivalents to meet its 2025 patient care demand.[1] Despite the need to expand the ophthalmology workforce, the number of underrepresented in medicine (URiM) ophthalmology trainees decreased from 8.7 to 7.7% between 2005 and 2015.[2] Patients from underrepresented groups, including Black/African Americans, Latinx, American Indians, Alaskan Natives, Native Hawaiians, and Pacific Islanders, comprised 30.7% of the U.S. population in the same period.

Establishing A Legitimate Indonesia’S Government Electronic Surveillance Regulation: A Comparison With The U.S. Legal Practices, Citra Yuda Nur Fatihah

Indonesia Law Review

Cybersecurity and privacy have now become a matter of increasing concern for citizens, the private sector, and the Indonesian government. The government is currently struggling to combat cyberattacks and data breaches. Indonesia is, in fact, in the early stages of developing a national cybersecurity strategy. The legal framework for cybersecurity in Indonesia is still weak. The one and only legal basis for regulating cybersecurity, privacy, and security, in Indonesia so far is the Electronic Information and Transactions Law No. 11/2008 and its revised version Law No.19/2016. Furthermore, the government through the Indonesian Ministry of Communication and Information has just issued …

Communication Sciences and Disorders Faculty Articles and Research

Broca’s area is frequently implicated in sentence comprehension but its specific role is debated. Most lesion studies have investigated deficits at the chronic stage. We aimed (1) to use acute imaging to predict which left hemisphere stroke patients will recover sentence comprehension; and (2) to better understand the role of Broca’s area in sentence comprehension by investigating acute deficits prior to functional reorganization. We assessed comprehension of canonical and noncanonical sentences in 15 patients with left hemisphere stroke at acute and chronic stages. LASSO regression was used to conduct lesion symptom mapping analyses. Patients with more severe word-level comprehension deficits …

On The Need For A Scholarly Edition Of Tárrega’S Complete Works, David J. Buch

Soundboard Scholar

In this guest editorial, the author provides evidence of the unreliable nature of the majority of Tárrega’s first editions, and the substandard quality of most modern editions. The author argues that in light of the recent availability of formerly inaccessible primary sources, the time is right for a scholarly edition of Tárrega’s complete works with state-of-art editorial methods.

Of Self And Circumstance: Music And Representation In The Works Of Rodrigo, Walter Aaron Clark

Soundboard Scholar

Though Joaquín Rodrigo (1901-99) is renowned for his guitar works, especially the Concierto de Aranjuez, less well known is the fact that his compositions embrace a wide variety of genres, styles, and media, from piano solos to art songs and from orchestral tone poems to film scores. This article proposes a novel way of organizing and comprehending the roughly 200 works in his catalogue. Rather than the standard method of organization by chronology or medium, it surveys his oeuvre through multiple lenses, including literary, folkloric, virtuosic, sacred, historical, theatrical and descriptive. Each of these categories represents the salient dimension …

Reginald Smith Brindle’S Concept Of Tonal-Atonal Equilibrium In Theory And Practice, Oliver Chandler

Soundboard Scholar

In an attempt to explain how post-tonal harmonic progressions might “make sense,” Reginald Smith Brindle formulated theories of tension flow and tonal-atonal equilibrium in his 1966 textbook, Serial Composition. The former theory compares the number of consonant and/or dissonant intervals between chords, albeit without providing a consistent means of distinguishing between similar sonorities; the latter observes that various musical passages strike a balance between functional and non-functional harmony, albeit without explaining the nature of said balance. While his ideas are evocative, they lack theoretical finesse. Placing them in dialogue with recent developments in post-tonal scholarship helps to unlock their …
