The Relationships of Social Cognitive Career Theory Factors and Cybersecurity Research Self-efficacy
The purpose of this study was to investigate the relationships of social cognitive career theory factors of past performance, verbal persuasion, vicarious experience, outcome expectancy, interest, and former students’ cybersecurity research self-efficacy; and examine whether the relationships were different among gender, academic classification, and career status. This study was a descriptive study using a posttest-only design that surveyed undergraduates, graduates, and former students using Likert scales. The contributions of this study are useful for educators to adjust their classroom practices, curriculum strategies, and advisement; and are useful for students as it provides insights into developing their cybersecurity research self-efficacy and guidance towards being part of the cybersecurity workforce. The results indicate that developing students’ cybersecurity research self-efficacy, educators may want to focus their efforts on students’ successful past performances and outcome expectations. Educators need to be mindful that particular career development factors were found to be important to particular groups. Former students working a cybersecurity job provided insights on career development factors that they found important for students to use as guidance in developing their cybersecurity research self-efficacy. These factors included successful past performances, encouragements, outcome expectations, and interest
Pathways to next-generation redox flow batteries
Redox flow batteries (RFBs) provide a promising pathway towards grid-scale energy storage but are inhibited from widespread implementation due to high costs. RFBs are divided into aqueous (Aq) and nonaqueous (NAq) redox flow batteries, both of which show distinct challenges to build low-cost RFBs with battery prices less than 100 per kWh-1. Overcoming these cost challenges requires a detailed electrolyte techno-economic (TE) model, which explicitly quantifies RFB redox active material, salt, and solvent costs. TE model results identify active species concentration and cell voltage as critical cost-constraining parameters for nonaqueous and aqueous RFBs respectively. Active species concentration targets for NAqRFBs are decreased by increasing cell voltage, and by decreasing area-specific resistance, redox active material molecular weight, and salt molecular weight and concentration. Similarly, cell voltage targets for AqRFBs are decreased by decreasing area-specific resistance and redox active material cost per unit mass and molecular weight. Alternative design pathways for nonaqueous and aqueous RFBs are proposed which decrease NAqRFB redox active material molality targets to 1.1 mol kg-1 and AqRFB cell voltage targets to 0.6 V, and which could potentially decrease RFB battery price to 90 per kWh-1. This TE model is used to analyze a group of experimentally tested nitrobenzene derivatives to find optimal redox active material potential, molecular weight, and salt molecular weight for next-generation nonaqueous RFBs. Nitrobenzene derivatives are found to have a battery price of 260 per kWh-1 when used with TBAPF6 salt, but on switching to TMABF4 salt with lower molecular weight, the battery price can be reduced further to 160 per kWh-1 albeit with higher active material molality targets. Finally, an analytical model of redox active species crossover in nonaqueous RFBs is developed and implemented in order to reduce coulombic inefficiencies in RFBs by selecting optimal operating parameters. The degree of crossover is found to be highly sensitive to current density and separator permeability, and can be decreased by an order of magnitude using thicker separators and higher current densities.Submission published under a 24 month embargo labeled 'U of I Access', the embargo will last until 2018-05-01The student, Rylan Dmello, accepted the attached license on 2016-04-27 at 10:19.The student, Rylan Dmello, submitted this Thesis for approval on 2016-04-27 at 10:26.This Thesis was approved for publication on 2016-04-27 at 14:53.DSpace SAF Submission Ingestion Package generated from Vireo submission #9543 on 2016-07-07 at 13:51:00Made available in DSpace on 2016-07-07T20:35:22Z (GMT).

Examining the motivations of the community pharmacies to use biometric authentication
Using the grounded theory strategy, this study analyzed the experiences and perspectives of community pharmacists. The intent was to answer the question, Why do community pharmacists consider using traditional authentication systems rather than biometric systems? The study consisted of 10 pharmacists for an individual interview from Hawaii and 35 pharmacists across the United States who participated in an online survey. Based on the examination of the collected data, themes emerged from the interviews and survey through five different analyses: (a) examined the pharmacists\u27 positions of the interview questions; (b) examined the pharmacists\u27 interview statements; (c) examined the survey preliminary questions; (d) compared the password system and the biometric system survey questions responses; and (e) performed an analysis of covariance and a correlation matrix, both using a 0.05 significance level to develop models for the surveyed password system, which was the authentication system that most community pharmacists used in their pharmacy. The contribution of this study presented the themes essential for the ground theory strategy and to be used for future research. The themes were: (a) there was a lack of awareness and exposure about biometric systems; (b) invasiveness, cost, pharmacist\u27s performance of biometric systems are concerns to consider; (c) although there were concerns about biometric systems, the community pharmacists would use the biometric system if available and believed it will be used more than password and physical object systems; (d) security functions are biometric systems focal point; and (e) large pharmacies (e.g., chain) and/or pharmacies located in urban areas may be more receptive to use biometric systems
aspectos parasitológicos de Cavia intermedia (Rodentia: Caviidae) no arquipélago de Moleques do Sul, em Santa Catarina, Brasil
TCC(graduação) - Universidade Federal de Santa Catarina. Centro de Ciências Biológicas. Biologia.Cavia intermedia é endêmica da maior ilha do Arquipélago de Moleques do Sul e a estimativa do tamanho médio populacional em 42 indivíduos fundamenta que esta seja uma espécie criticamente ameaçada de extinção de acordo com a IUCN. Em expedições realizadas de 11 à 19 de dezembro de 2009 e de 20 à 23 de fevereiro de 2010, um total de 27 preás foi capturado com auxílio de gaiolas iscadas com rodelas de milho. A coleta de piolhos foi realizada por escovação da pelagem sobre uma bandeja branca, antecipada da passagem de um algodão embebido em éter etílico sobre o corpo do hospedeiro, ao passo que os ácaros foram removidos por raspagem do tecido. Amostras de sangue foram coletadas por punção digital para realização de esfregaços sanguíneos, fixados posteriormente com metanol. A busca por helmintos foi baseada em exames de fezes coletadas das gaiolas e necropsias de cinco espécimes disponíveis em coleção científica. Ácaros trombiculídeos foram observados em todos os hospedeiros capturados. Um total de 1336 piolhos de duas espécies, Gliricola lindolphoi e Trimenopon hispidum (Phthiraptera – Amblycera) foi coletado de 27 preás, sendo 471 exemplares de G. lindolphoi e 865 indivíduos de T. hispidum, proporcionando uma abundância média de 49,5 (± 39,1) piolhos por hospedeiro. A prevalência e a intensidade de infestação por piolhos foram elevados e podem não ter relação com a síndrome insular, uma vez que valores similares ou até maiores foram observados em populações continentais de preás. Cavia intermedia é apresentada como um novo hospedeiro verdadeiro para ambas as espécies de piolhos. Apesar de T. hispidum ser um parasito comum de Cavia spp., a ocorrência de G. lindolphoi é rara, sendo notificada pela sexta vez. No que diz respeito ao achado de ácaros trombiculídeos, sua origem é incerta. A ausência de endoparasitos deve-se possivelmente à alta complexidade de seus ciclos biológicos, o que poderia ser resultado do isolamento no arquipélago. Estes resultados podem fundamentar ações de manejo e a sua associação com informações sobre a ectoparasitofauna de outras espécies do gênero Cavia pode subsidiar investigações taxonômicas e filogenéticas tanto para os parasitos, quanto para os hospedeiros
Open Problems in Technical AI Governance
AI progress is creating a growing range of risks and opportunities, but it is
often unclear how they should be navigated. In many cases, the barriers and
uncertainties faced are at least partly technical. Technical AI governance,
referring to technical analysis and tools for supporting the effective
governance of AI, seeks to address such challenges. It can help to (a) identify
areas where intervention is needed, (b) identify and assess the efficacy of
potential governance actions, and (c) enhance governance options by designing
mechanisms for enforcement, incentivization, or compliance. In this paper, we
explain what technical AI governance is, why it is important, and present a
taxonomy and incomplete catalog of its open problems. This paper is intended as
a resource for technical researchers or research funders looking to contribute
to AI governance.Comment: Ben Bucknall and Anka Reuel contributed equally and share the first

Hello Rebels Family!
It's easy to believe that the rich and famous are born well...rich and famous. Not so! On the
way to being famous...Gwen Stefani worked at Dairy Queen, Madonna was fired from Dunkin'
Donuts, Brad Pitt handed out flyers wearing a chicken suit for El Polio Loco, Rachel McAdams
was a server at McDonald's and Beyonce was swept up hair in her mother's salon. There are
jobs you will have before you 'make it' too. Some you will enjoy. And some - not so much.
On my way to becoming a teacher I was a waiter, a landscaper, a tree planter, and a
bartender. Some of these jobs I liked and some I hated. But ALL of these jobs brought me to
the profession I love and shaped who I have become.
At W.R. Myers High School we are proud of being a school where every student can find an
avenue for success and in being part of a community where everyone in the Rebel family
strives to find the best in themselves and others. As Christian Larson said, "Believe in yourself
and all that you are. Know that there is something inside you that is greater than any obstacle."
Remember that you are the star of your own life and that, with hard work, your dreams will become reality!
Take care,
Ken Pon

Wow! What a year! I chose "REBEL RESILIENCE" as the yearbook theme this year as I thought it was rather fitting given our
current 'COVID-1 9' situation. Some of you are already VERY RESILIENT, while others may feel like you are not. One thing is
for sure - you can always WORK on becoming MORE resilient.
Here are 10 ways you can work on becoming more resilient:
Have the courage to be imperfect
Take time for yourself
Sign up for that course, join that club
Be active every day in as many ways as you can
Spend time with people who make you feel good
Laugh out loud each day
Invite your neighbor (friend) over for a cup of tea (chat)
Do one thing now that you've been putting off
Focus more on things you can control
Remember, this too shall pass (~https://wayahead.org.au/get-the-facts/building-resilience/)
Thank you to all those who gave me a big smile (or at least didn't run away) when I put the camera in front of your face! I
apologize to those teams I missed getting photos of (that actually had the opportunity to play). Because this year is unlike any
other, I also decided to change up the color scheme from the traditional red/black/yellow! I would love some feedback on
this decision (love it/dislike it etc).
A huge shout-out to a stellar group of grade 9's who helped me with the yearbook in June (Madisen and Bryden O'Connor,
Kiernan Gyepesi, Will Evanson, Madison Reid, Heston Bevans and Allen Clements). Thank you specifically to Bryden O'Connor
for creating the color graphic used throughout the yearbook.
Some of the quotes found through out the yearbook were from the survey you filled out in the spring, which in, most cases,
does not have the author information and therefore simply states the grade level the quote came from. All other quotes with
Author Unknown" were found online and in most cases didn't have any author information either. In any case, my hope is
that they will either put a smile on your face, make you go 'hmm' or possibly even take time to pause and reflect on the
message being shared. Enjoy! 5

A Message ■
from ou„r awth^lOtiC DiPOCtO
It was a sad reality that we all had to face this year with little to no athletic
competitions across the Province for High School Sport. But very thankfully, and
in true Rebel Spirit, we made the most of the situation and were able to organize
and provide our student-athletes with a few opportunities to participate in sport.
The Rebels made teams and practiced as much as they possibly could in football,
volleyball, cross-country, golf, basketball, and curling. Unfortunately, a few of our
traditional sports were not able to get off the ground in the Spring, but hopefully
that will only fuel the fire of the up and coming athletes for next season! We want
to give a big thanks to all those student-athletes and coaches who committed to
one or more of our teams during these tough, unprecedented circumstances, and
a special shout out to all the Grade 1 2 student-athletes for all of their years of
dedication to High School Sport!

The W.R. Myers Concert and
Stage Bands were unable to
perform this year due to COVID,
but we were lucky enough to still
be able to play our instruments.
Vince Gassi, a composer from
Toronto, was commissioned by
the W.R. Myers Band Parent
Association to write a piece for
the Concert Band. The band
students met with Mr. Gassi via
Zoom in October to talk to him
about the piece and the writing
process. He completed the piece
for us in January and we began
working on it. Again the band
students met with Mr. Gassi on
Zoom for him to listen to us play
and give feedback. But
unfortunately due to the COVID
restrictions, we were unable to
premier the piece. Hopefully,
next year we will be able to play
Tomorrow Shines Soon.

..had the opportunity to be a part of the "Minister's Youth Council." The Minister's Youth Council consists of 40 junior and senior high school students (in
Alberta) all of which have many diverse interests, perspectives, and backgrounds. Students get the opportunity to share their perspectives on many different
topics in education. Over the last couple of years students on this council have worked with the Alberta Government Education Department, MLA's,
industry professionals, teachers and school boards to help better education in out province. Specifically, these students helped inform a vaping policy from
Edmonton Public Schools, assisted in the creation of Bill 1 9 which aims to reduce vaping use in Alberta and helped shape the Ministerial Order on Student
Learning.

The Taber Thrashers get a season after all! With vaccinate numbers up and COVID cases dropping substantially
after a short shutdown the Lacrosse league got the green light to play. And play they did! If you enjoy watching
playing a high-intensity, high-contact sport, then this is a game for you! With the Lacrosse league in its infancy in
^ber (this is just the second season of play) the team did a stellar job working on basic skills, learning plays, and
Alling as a team unit. They definitely had their ups and downs where the scoreboard was concerned. But considering
^ey were up against teams with many more years experience, the Thrashers had a phenomenal season!
