Abstract:

This article is a collaborative undertaking on Filipino Bilingual education. We argue that Filipino Bilingual education is a counternarrative technology to white settler narratives in the diaspora. We unpack an understanding of technology that is defined as an embodied skill within the racialized processes that have advanced Eurocentrism in western pedagogy. Through heritage language learning, we argue that the continued use and teaching of the Filipino language in Canada interrogates the hegemonic myth that Canada is founded exclusively by two European nations, the English and the French.

I’d like to begin with some of my favourite stories about play development in Canada. The first takes place in 1907, the inaugural year of the Earl Grey Musical and Dramatic Competition, which was begun by then-Governor General Earl Grey to encourage Canadian theatre. Betty Lee, in Love and Whisky: The Story of the Dominion Drama Festival, recounts the development of that year’s winning play, Allan Danvers, devised and presented by a group from Winnipeg.

In western Superior province, the North Caribou terrane (NCT) constitutes a Mesoarchean proto-continent heavily overprinted by Neoarchean magmatism and deformation resulting from the western Superior Province accretion.

These sequences are of key importance to our understanding of the early tectonic evolution of continental crust.

Nelson, known as the Dark Strangler, was identified as the killer of over twenty women in the United States before crossing the border into Canada, where he was captured, tried, and hanged. The evidence presented in Winnipeg in the Dark Strangler case centred on his physicality as a man perceived as mixed race. The narrative around Nelson, which was circulated several tim

Parents’ unique expertise in assessing their children’s pain reactions, alongside a deep emotional drive to protect their children, make them invaluable advocates and partners. Parents are highly invested in optimizing pain management outcomes for children. Concerns and preferences regarding medications, including opioids, influence their choices.

Yet his interest in the science of geography was also motivated by a concern with America's self-image in the realm of international politics, learning, and commerce.

Probability and expectation are two distinct measures, both of which can be used to indicate the likelihood of certain events.

To illustrate the point, suppose the probability of choosing a winning lottery ticket is 2.5 × 10−8. This information may not communicate the unlikely odds of winning as clearly as a statement like, “If five lottery tickets are purchased per day, the expected waiting ti

Abstract:

The study attempted to help shape a fuller and deeper understanding of man-woman relationships and its attendant tensions, complications and intricacies seen and refracted through the feminist perspective and psychoanalytic lens. To achieve this objective, three selected Palanca award winning plays in the Philippines were critically examined to this end: The Chieftain’s Daughter by Felix Clemente, Celadons by Dhelia Racines, and Brisbane by Bobby Flores Villasis. Freudian psychoanalytic criticism and feminist perspective guided the analysis and interpretation of the text. It aimed to identify

Abstract:

Over the past decade there has been a call to action for researchers to explore children’s subjectivities in the context of well-being. How children understand and experience well-being in a Canadian context was examined in this study. Twenty-one children between 8 and 12 years of age participated in semi-structured interviews facilitated by the Life Story Board™. Three main themes emerged: (1) freedom and control, (2) child rights and social supports, and (3) children’s participation as social actors. Results from this study highlighted the importance of children needing to feel heard by pare

Abstract:

In this paper, we present an approach to create assets using proceduralalgorithms in maps generation and dynamic adaptation of characters for a MOBA video game, preserving the balancing feature to players. Maps arecreated based on offering equal chances of winning or losing for both teams. Also, a character adaptation system is developed which allows changing the attributes of players in real-time according to their behaviour, always maintaining the game balanced. Our tests show the effectiveness of the proposed algorithms to establish the adequate values in a MOBA videogame.

Abstract:

We seek to identify the causal effect of sentiment innovations on consumption. Using unique Australian consumer sentiment survey data, we show that, immediately after elections with a change of government, supporters of the winning party report substantially more optimistic beliefs about economic conditions than supporters of the losing party. We argue that this variation in beliefs is orthogonal to changes in fundamentals and find robust evidence that the shifts in sentiment affect spending intentions. Furthermore, using geographic variation in sentiment, vote shares, and automobile purchases

Abstract:

The English River subprovince is one of two metasediment-dominated terranes in the western Superior Province. It has been interpreted as an accretionary complex, a foreland, or a fore-arc basin that developed and was subsequently deformed between the metavolcanic-rich Uchi subprovince and the orthogneiss- and metaplutonic-dominated Winnipeg River subprovince during a prolonged transpressive orogeny. To test these hypotheses, we combined a satellite image, aeromagnetic image, and Lithoprobe reflection seismic profile interpretation with detailed structural mapping to better characterize the int

Abstract:

Studying state lotto games offers an opportunity for students to apply basic probability concepts in a practical setting. Students enjoy the discussion and become enthusiastic about investigating the probabilities of winning the jackpot. The probability of winning the jackpot in one play of a state lotto game is quite easy to compute. A more interesting problem is computing the probability of winning it twice. Some state lotteries have produced two-time winners of large jackpots. For example, an Ohio man won $4.3 million in August 1990, then won $12 million in March 1991. This article addresse

Abstract: The award-winning play Venus vs Modernity unpacks the life of Saartjie Baartman, a South African woman of Khoi descent, who was exhibited as a freak show in nineteenth-century Europe under the name "Hottentot Venus." At the peak of her fame in the early 1800s, Saartjie Baartman became a reference point for abolitionists, fashion designers, and political satirists alike. Her remains were dissected and put on display at the French National Museum for 150 years. In 2002, Saartjie Baartman was finally returned to the land of her birth.

Each piece has four different characteristics: tall or short, light or dark, round or square, and solid or hollow. The game is played by two players, who take turns placing pieces on the game board.

Abstract:

There is a dramatic imbalance of cultural output in the global publishing industry. English-language publishers are disinclined to translate and publish foreign language books as a result of the popularity of English-language books and the high costs of translation. Three per cent is the oft-quoted number that indicates that foreign fiction in translation makes up only a minimal part of the UK book trade. This lack of bibliodiversity may have serious cultural consequences. There are thus several national and international initiatives to promote the publication and cultural capital of works in

Abstract:

Magic: the gathering is a trading card game published by Wizards of the Coast [1]. The aim of most variants of the game is to reduce your opponent's life total from twenty to zero, thus winning the game. As it may take several turns to reduce a player's life total to zero, players need a mechanism to keep track of their current life total. For this purpose, players often use a device called a spindown life counter, shown in Figure 1. A spindown life counter is an icosahedron with a special labelling of the faces, such that − starting with 20 life total − a player can reduce their life total in

In 2002, 60 isolates of G. zeae were collected and single spored from naturally infected spikes of wheat from Carman and Winnipeg in Manitoba. These isolates were compared using vegetative compatibility analysis and polymerase chain reaction (PCR)-based sequence related amplified polymorphisms (SRAP). Sixteen vegetative compatibility groups (VCG) were found among the 50 isolates tested. Five VCGs were found in the two locations
