Odontites verna (Bell.) Dum. subsp. pumila (Nordst.) A. Pedersen in Nederland
The author gives a brief survey of ecology, distribution, and differences in flowering time of Odontites verna (Bell.) Dum. subsp. verna, subsp. litoralis (Fr.) A. Pedersen, subsp. fennica (Markl.), subsp. serotina (Wettst.) E. F. Warb., and subsp. pumila (Nordst.) A. Pedersen. In a description of the last named differential characters with subsp. serotina are stressed. Subsp. pumila is known from sandy pastures along the coasts of S. W. Sweden, Denmark, N. and N. W. Germany, and the Netherlands. Fig. 1 gives a map, showing the distribution in the Netherlands, based on the material of the Rijksherbarium, Leiden

Whips and chains excite me: BDSM, social acceptance, and the sexual double standard
This study examined the social acceptance of Dominant/submissive relationships when gender of the Dominant and exposure to normalizing information were manipulated. A sadomasochism attitudes scale was used to gather opinions about BDSM relationships. Results partially supported hypotheses; female participants reported greater social acceptance for female Dominants when provided with normative information about the couple.Poster presented at the annual meeting of the Association for Psychological Science, San Francisco, CA, 201
Two closets at work: How embedded are gender and sexuality in our heuristic schemas
Association for Psychological Science, San Francisco, CA, 2014In a 2 (gender) X 2 (orientation) X 2 (occupation) design, participants evaluated a cover letter/resume and completed a sex role inventory. Findings revealed perceptions of gender were influenced only by orientation; gay applicants were rated more masculine, while straight applicants were more feminine. A gender X job interaction indicated female secretaries more feminine and male plumbers more masculine

Implicit large-eddy simulation of the stratocumulus-topped boundary layer: A grid sensitivity study
A range of implicit large-eddy simulations of the stratocumulus-topped boundary layer is performed to study the influence of grid resolution on selected parameters including liquid water path and second and third moments of vertical velocity fluctuations. The simulations are based on two sets of aircraft measurements, which are also used to evaluate the results of the simulations. The specific case presented here indicates that simulations with a grid aspect ratio accounting for the anisotropic nature of the turbulence near the surface and at the top of the boundary layer lead to better agreement with measurements than simulations with an isotropic grid
Lashing Out after Stewing over Public Insults: The Effects of Public Provocation, Provocation Intensity, and Rumination on Triggered Displaced Aggression
Four studies present the first evidence showing that public (vs. private) provocation augments triggered displaced aggression by increasing the perceived intensity of the provocation. This effect is shown to be independent of face-saving motivation. Following a public or private provocation, Study 1 participants were induced to ruminate or were distracted for 20 min. They then had an opportunity to aggress against another person who either acted in a neutral or mildly annoying fashion (viz. triggering event). As expected, the magnitude of the greater displaced aggression of those who ruminated before the triggering event compared with those distracted was greater under public than private provocation. Study 2 replicated the findings of Study 1 and confirmed that public provocations are experienced as more intense. Studies 3 and 4 both manipulated provocation intensity directly to show that it mediated the moderating effect of public/private provocation found in Study 1. The greater intensity of a public provocation increases reactivity to a subsequent trigger, which in turn, augments triggered displaced aggression
