Lessons From The Least: Healing-Centered Discipline Reform For Neurodivergent Youth In U.S. Public Schools, Deborah Brooks Apr 2026

Lessons From The Least: Healing-Centered Discipline Reform For Neurodivergent Youth In U.S. Public Schools, Deborah Brooks

Liberty University Research Week

Disproportionate disciplinary outcomes for neurodivergent students—particularly those with autism, ADHD, and learning disabilities—represent a systemic failure of American education policy. Although students with disabilities constitute 17% of the K–12 population, they account for 29% of out-of-school suspensions and 21% of expulsions, disparities compounded by race, gender, and socioeconomic disadvantage. These patterns feed directly into the school-to-prison pipeline, a documented trajectory linking exclusionary discipline to elevated risk of juvenile justice involvement. Existing legal protections under the Individuals with Disabilities Education Act (IDEA), Section 504 of the Rehabilitation Act, and the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA), as well as trauma-informed care frameworks, …

Assessing The Relationship Between 60-Second Push-Up Performance And 1-Rep-Max Bench Press, Brennen Bargesser Apr 2026

Assessing The Relationship Between 60-Second Push-Up Performance And 1-Rep-Max Bench Press, Brennen Bargesser

Liberty University Research Week

INTRODUCTION: The push-up test has been widely used in populations with low-training age and military performance for muscular endurance testing. Comparatively, 1-rep-max (1RM) bench press testing has been used to determine maximal strength in resistance training settings across ages and disciplines. However, there is no current literature assessing the relationship between the 60-second AMRAP (as many reps as possible) push-up test and the 1RM bench press, or the practical application of utilizing the push-up test as a maximum strength testing method. PURPOSE: The purpose of this study was to examine the relationship between a 60-second AMRAP push-up test and a …

Senegalese Community Through Media, Genesis Flores

Proceedings of GREAT Day

This paper builds off another paper detailing the media representation in Dakar, Senegal. This paper will discuss the extent in which the media representation in Dakar represents the daily culture, the sense of community, and how the media in Dakar transfers over to the diaspora/ america (if such a thing even occurs). In order to engage in this discussion, the top popular newspapers and news channels will be used as primary sources, coupled with clips of interviews, social media, and scholarly articles. This paper will then discuss the effectiveness of media in Dakar and assess if the media has any …


The Role Of Actuarial Discretion In Discrimination In Auto Insurance, Michael Abrams Apr 2026

The Role Of Actuarial Discretion In Discrimination In Auto Insurance, Michael Abrams

Proceedings of GREAT Day

In today's auto insurance industry, rate discrimination against people of color and lower-class individuals is rampant, but unseen by those outside of the industry. This is due to the proliferation of individualist perceptions of the operations of the auto insurance industry among social scientists and legal scholars in calculating insurance rates. It operates on the basis of risk calculation, backed up by actuarial measures that serve to single out minorities living in low-income areas. Driving history, insurance history, zip code, homeownership, and credit are among the most common measures used by insurance companies to calculate insurance rate, are shaped by …

Allfromair® Addendum No. 5 (V3): Fog Integration, Vesa Olavi Lius Apr 2026

Allfromair® Addendum No. 5 (V3): Fog Integration, Vesa Olavi Lius

Defensive Publications Series

Addendum 4 analysed ALLFROMAIR® system performance under clear-sky conditions using passive radiative cooling. A critical operational extension is fog — a phenomenon occurring several hours per day across a wide range of climates, including coastal deserts. During fog periods, the wire-forest electrode structure already present in the system functions directly as a high-efficiency fog collector. The DEP field provides a modest additional steering correction for the larger droplets in the fog size distribution, and vibration-desorption ensures continuous drainage.

Calculations show that ALLFROMAIR® v2 achieves 0.26–0.97 L/m²/h during fog periods (Q = η × LWC_median × v × 3.6, η = …


Allfromair® Addendum No. 2 (V2): Field-Enhanced Atmospheric Condensation, Vesa Olavi Lius Apr 2026

Allfromair® Addendum No. 2 (V2): Field-Enhanced Atmospheric Condensation, Vesa Olavi Lius

Defensive Publications Series

Atmospheric moisture constitutes an essentially inexhaustible global resource of fresh water, exceeding the total volume in the Earth’s rivers by a factor of six. However, traditional techniques for atmospheric water harvesting (AWH) rely on either sensible dew point cooling—which incurs prohibitive thermodynamic energy costs due to the latent heat of phase change combined with the cooling of inert atmospheric gases—or passive collection nets that are strictly limited by aerodynamic streamlines and the Stokes number for capturing macroscopic fog droplets.

The original ALLFROMAIR® defensive publication proposed direct capture of gas-phase water molecules via dielectrophoresis (DEP) in strong electric field gradients (∇|E|²). …

This document constitutes a non-enabling defensive publication disclosing the conceptual architecture, functional subsystems, and novel integration principles of the Gaia Quantum Cortex — Starforge Heart (hereinafter, the "Gaia Core"). The Gaia Core is a unified, self-contained platform that integrates quantum computation, compact fusion energy generation, autonomous atom-scale fabrication, environmental and planetary engineering, bio-symbiotic life support, sterile biological regeneration, and multi-domain defense capabilities into a single deployable architecture organized around a toroidal geometry.

The principal novelty of the Gaia Core resides not in any individual subsystem considered in isolation, but in the deliberate co-design of all subsystems for mutual …


Context-Aware Database Access Control Via Differential Evaluation Of Candidate Transactions Against Filtered And Unfiltered Projections, Felix Barbalet Apr 2026

Context-Aware Database Access Control Via Differential Evaluation Of Candidate Transactions Against Filtered And Unfiltered Projections, Felix Barbalet

Defensive Publications Series

Problem. Access control in database-backed systems conventionally uses separate mechanisms for read and write paths: read-path filtering (row-level security, query rewriting, view predicates) paired with write-path per-row post-image checks (e.g. SQL WITH CHECK OPTION) or ad-hoc application logic. The two specifications drift apart; per-row write checks miss indirect effects from triggers, referential cascades, derived-data maintenance, and secondary-index side effects; and externalized authorization services introduce staleness hazards.

Technique. A single visibility predicate, derived from the request context, governs both paths. Reads are evaluated against a projection of the database from which elements failing the predicate are absent. A write is authorized …


The Ignatian Cybergogical Experience Model: Fostering Competence, Conscience, Compassion, And Commitment In The Digital Age, Theresia Y. Setyawan, Chatarina A. Budiningsih, Sugeng B. Wahyono Apr 2026

The Ignatian Cybergogical Experience Model: Fostering Competence, Conscience, Compassion, And Commitment In The Digital Age, Theresia Y. Setyawan, Chatarina A. Budiningsih, Sugeng B. Wahyono

Journal of Catholic Education

Despite advances in educational technology, learning models that effectively integrate digital tools to develop not only competence but also learners’ conscience, compassion, and commitment remain limited. This article introduces the Ignatian Cybergogical Experience (ICE) model, a novel framework designed to foster these four essential characteristics in digital learning environments. Rooted in the Catholic Intellectual Tradition, the model deliberately integrates Ignatian Pedagogy’s proven framework for values formation and reflective practice with cybergogy’s capacity to engage digital learners through technology-mediated experiences. This synergistic blending addresses critical limitations in existing approaches: the ICE model simultaneously develops technological competence and moral character, which neither …


Scientific Research In Cuba: A General Analysis With A Special Focus On Energy, Agriculture And Technology, Henri Dou, Pierre Fournie Apr 2026

Scientific Research In Cuba: A General Analysis With A Special Focus On Energy, Agriculture And Technology, Henri Dou, Pierre Fournie

International Journal of Islands Research

An analysis of science in Cuba is carried out using data from the OpenAlex database. Examples are developed: agriculture, rice, technology in relation to the current situation: national food supply, energy and medicine. The predominance of research in biology and medicine and the low commitment in the fields of agriculture, energy, medicinal plants and technology are highlighted. Various development schemes are proposed. The conclusion is that research must be directed towards strategic areas: food and energy, must be less dispersed and that technology must be better taken into account. Three proposals are made: the development of a chemical analysis platform …

Mind The Gap: An Empirical Analysis Of India's National Cybercrime Framework And Its State-Level Implementation In Kerala, Raju Narayana Swamy Apr 2026

Mind The Gap: An Empirical Analysis Of India's National Cybercrime Framework And Its State-Level Implementation In Kerala, Raju Narayana Swamy

Journal of Law and Public Policy

India’s cybercrime framework, under the Information Technology Act 2000, is marked by a gap between national policy design and state-level enforcement. While the existing literature primarily examines legislative provisions, this paper delves into how the national cyber law actually functions within India’s federal structure, focusing on the critical divergence between de jure design and de facto enforcement outcomes. This paper unpacks this implementation gap with the example of Kerala. It is a state characterized by high literacy (94 per cent, as against the all-India literacy rate of 74.04 per cent) and high digital penetration yet plagued by an abysmally low …
