Demonstration studies 1 and 2 are the focus of the main report. The background and aims of our first demonstration study on social media and medication choices is presented. The methodology for the development of the corpus and search terms related to medication in Twitter is then described. The annotation processes of medication-related tweets for clozapine, paliperidone and pregabalin as well as the results arising from this activity are reported in detail. For our second demonstration study on social media and ‘legal highs’, we provide a short summary of the background and objectives. We present the methodology for corpus and related-terms selection of both Twitter and clinical records. The process and results from the annotation of mephedrone-related tweets and mephedrone-related instances in the clinical notes are then described in detail. We conclude this report by outlining how the development of this deliverable will contribute to future work and summarise the next steps to deliverable 7.2.

It will model, identify and verify information as it spreads across media, languages and social networks and test this system in two case studies: WP7 and WP8 (digital journalism). The broad aims of WP7 are to turn the project technologies toward practical applications in the healthcare domain, to enable health professionals and policy makers to analyse Internet content for emerging medically-related patterns, rumours, and other health-related issues. This analysis may in turn be used (i) to develop educational materials for patients and the public, by addressing concerns and misconceptions, and (ii) to link to analysis of the electronic health records. The objective of WP7 is therefore to carry out research towards a PHEME-based platform for the medical domain for multi-channel media monitoring, extraction, verification, and visualisation of automatically extracted knowledge across media and languages. This case study provides the integration of PHEME’s technology into a (hospital-based) health records application and methodological and user verification, for the ultimate goals of monitoring health related rumours and misinformation in social media (http://www.pheme.eu/). To this end, there are 4 main demonstration studies being considered in WP7. The aims of these studies will be to: 1) Identify social media attitudes towards certain medications and how these are present in clinical records. 2) Monitor the emergence of novel psychoactive substances in social media, and identify if and how promptly they appear in clinical records. 3) Explore how mental health stigma arises in social media and presents in clinical records. 4) Ascertain the type of influence social media might have on young people at risk of self-harm or suicide. 5 In order to detect rumours, particularly those

All who have been brought up in the old Protestant view of the Apocalypse are looking forward to the year 1866, as an epoch when some great events are to occur, which will materially affect the prospects and condition of the Papal Power. Many have but an imperfect knowledge of the evidence upon which this expectation is based ; as there are but few who make the subject a matter of study. They gather their impressions from detached texts of Scripture and the comments they hear upon them ; and some are as likely to be swayed vby.onp "-system of interpretation as by another, since they have no #Mfoprehensiv%,vlmd intelligent view of Pro- phecy taken as a whole. '-'-.'- \\ ':':'. l.Q'. The following Paraphrase was drawn up -a;.few years ago, soon after the first appearance of the Rev. E.

The object was to assist persons interested in the subject in forming a judgment concerning this scheme of interpretation, which many regard as the most complete which has been yet proposed.

[Music fades out.] 00:00:12 Jesse Host I’m Jesse Thorn. It’s Bullseye! Thorn 00:00:14 Music Music “Huddle Formation” from the album Thunder, Lightning, Strike by The Go! Team plays. A fast, upbeat, peppy song. Music plays as Jesse speaks, then fades out. 00:00:22 Jesse Host Chris Morris is an absurdist, sort of. I mean, just about everything he’s made has been absurd. He was the host and creator of The Day Today, the BBC news parody where he’d read headlines like, “Sacked Chimney Sweep Pumps Boss Full of Mayonnaise”. Then there was Brass Eye, another brilliant news parody where he’d con elected officials into warning kids to stay away from a fake drug called Cake. I say he’s only sort of an absurdist, though, because as time has gone on, his work has gotten more and more deeply rooted in reality. His last two films revolve around the world of terrorism and counterterrorism. In preparing for them, he read court transcripts, talked with journalists, even attended actual trials. His newest is called The Day Shall Come. It’s a story about a guy named Moses Al Shabazz, played by Marshawn Davis. Moses leads a small religious group—a very small religious group—called the Star of Six. He talks to God through animals, lives on a commune in a little apartment in Miami with his family, and he preaches for a black revolution: one that won’t be achieved with guns or explosives, but with crossbows and a lot of duck walking.

    Pocono Mountain School District PO Box 200 Swiftwater, Pa 18370 570-839-7121 Elizabeth M. Robison, Ph.D. Superintendent of Schools [email protected] Fax: 570-895-4768 March 1, 2019 Dear Parents/Guardians, I wanted to take a moment to ask you to please continue monitoring your child’s Internet and social media use. Of specific concern for educators and parents right now is a hoax called Momo Challenge that allegedly compels children to engage in dangerous activities to include hurting others or committing suicide. The Momo Challenge hoax is very concerning to all of us, because there are several reports that others may be using this hoax and the scary Momo character/graphic to try to hack phones and create frightening video challenges for children. There are reports that Momo is also being linked to Apps commonly used by children, such as YouTube Kids. These reports state that through Apps children may receive anonymous threatening messages that encourage children to perform acts of self-harm, including suicide. I have also received reports from faculty and staff of some of our Pocono Mountain School District students conducting Internet searches of the term Momo and trying to access Momo videos on their smart phones or computers at school. Our Technology Department is blocking access from all District computers to any search related to the term Momo. It is difficult to separate fact from fiction when it comes to such social media hoaxes and phenomena, so I encourage you to discuss with your children whether or not they have seen anything scary on their phones or computers and encourage them to talk with you or another trusted adult about what they’ve seen.

  • The Korean Wave As a Localizing Process: Nation As a Global Actor in Cultural Production
    THE KOREAN WAVE AS A LOCALIZING PROCESS: NATION AS A GLOBAL ACTOR IN CULTURAL PRODUCTION A Dissertation Submitted to the Temple University Graduate Board In Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY by Ju Oak Kim May 2016 Examining Committee Members: Fabienne Darling-Wolf, Advisory Chair, Department of Journalism Nancy Morris, Professor, Department of Media Studies and Production Patrick Murphy, Associate Professor, Department of Media Studies and Production Dal Yong Jin, Associate Professor, School of Communication, Simon Fraser University © Copyright 2016 by Ju Oak Kim All Rights Reserved ii ABSTRACT This dissertation research examines the Korean Wave phenomenon as a social practice of globalization, in which state actors have promoted the transnational expansion of Korean popular culture through creating trans-local hybridization in popular content and intra-regional connections in the production system. This research focused on how three agencies – the government, public broadcasting, and the culture industry – have negotiated their relationships in the process of globalization, and how the power dynamics of these three production sectors have been influenced by Korean society’s politics, economy, geography, and culture. The importance of the national media system was identified in the (re)production of the Korean Wave phenomenon by examining how public broadcasting-centered media ecology has control over the development of the popular music culture within Korean society. The Korean Broadcasting System (KBS)’s weekly show, Music Bank, was the subject of analysis regarding changes in the culture of media production in the phase of globalization. In-depth interviews with media professionals and consumers who became involved in the show production were conducted in order to grasp the patterns that Korean television has generated in the global expansion of local cultural practices.

  • Child Development Knowledge and Human Factors in Toy Design: An
    CHILD DEVELOPMENT KNOWLEDGE AND HUMAN FACTORS IN TOY DESIGN: AN EXPLORATORY STUDY OF POPULAR CHILDREN'S PRODUCTS by Alexandra Lopez July, 2012 Director of Thesis: Sandra Triebenbacher, PhD Major Department: Child Development and Family Relations Play reflects how children understand the world, and it also provides them with opportunities to learn and refine their social, emotional, motor, and problem-solving skills. Before designing a product such as a children's toy, it is important for the engineer to consider all of the tasks that users will be executing with the finished product. From a general human factors perspective, physical and cognitive operations are the primary categories of tasks that are deliberated. The purpose of this study is to assess if child development theory and knowledge informs the design process of those who create children’s products. Patents of toys (n=38) selected to be included in this study were analyzed to see if and how knowledge of child development was incorporated into the development of the product, as well as to evaluate if there have been any changes in the use of child development knowledge in toy design. The results indicated that toy patents in this study did utilize knowledge of child development and demonstrated a significant increase in the utilization of child development knowledge more frequently in contemporary toys, particularly in cognitive learning. Overall, there were strong correlations between the number of evidence pieces within the patent discussing various child development topics,

A central theme running throughout the collection is law, broadly, and the ways in which people adhere to or sometimes break from a particular rule, be it social or legislative. In each case, the role of law and its correlation to place and identity—either overt or veiled— serves as a major component of each story.
