Palaeoclimate records from OIS 8.0-5.4 recorded in loess-palaeosol sequences on the Matmata Plateau, southern Tunisia, based on mineral magnetism and new luminescence dating
Mineral magnetic studies of loess–palaeosol sequences on the Matmata Plateau, southern Tunisia, coupled with a new chronology based on luminescence dating, confirm the presence of at least four phases of pedogenesis during the period 100–250 ka. Inter-site correlations between the reddened fersiallitic palaeosols confirms that, despite modern gullying processes, the records are regional and repeatable. The palaeosol magnetic signal is controlled by the formation of secondary ferrimagnetic minerals, which may be easily detected by magnetic susceptibility and frequency-dependent susceptibility measurements. Comparison of the magnetic record with global proxy climate records shows a correlation with loess–palaeosol sequences in China and the marine oxygen isotope (OI) record during stages 8.0–5.4. Preliminary attempts to infer palaeoprecipitation levels from modern analogues of soil magnetism-climate associations suggests that during the periods 100–120 ka and ~ 200 ka precipitation was >400 mm a?1, compared with modern precipitation <150 mm a?1
Novel Dialogue 3.5: The Romance of Recovery: Ben Bateman talks to Shola von Reinhold (AV)
Shola von Reinhold is the author of LOTE, a novel about getting lost in the archives and finding what the archives have lost. LOTE won the 2021 James Tait Black prize so who better to join Shola on Novel Dialogue than Ben Bateman of Edinburgh University, lead judge of the prize committee? This conversation takes listeners back to all yesterday's parties as Shola, Ben, and Aarthi time travel to the Harlem Renaissance and the interwar modernist era. Shola offers up Richard Bruce Nugent as their current figure of fascination (or "transfixion" to use a key image from LOTE), and wonders what it would have been like to move through Harlem and London by Nugent's side. Recovering the stories of black writers and artists is essential to Shola's literary project. It is also inseparable from restoring queerness to the once hyper-masculine and "muscular" paradigm of modernism. In a stirring discussion of the aesthetic forms and moods of historical recovery, Ben and Shola sink into the "purpleness" of the fin-de-siècle and explore the critical power of black sensuousness. Talk of decadence, ornamentality, and frivolity shapes the latter half of this episode, and Doris Payne, the West Virginian jewel thief, emerges as an exquisitely improbable modernist heroine

Virtual patients design and its effect on clinical reasoning and student experience : a protocol for a randomised factorial multi-centre study
Background
Virtual Patients (VPs) are web-based representations of realistic clinical cases. They are proposed as being an optimal method for teaching clinical reasoning skills. International standards exist which define precisely what constitutes a VP. There are multiple design possibilities for VPs, however there is little formal evidence to support individual design features. The purpose of this trial is to explore the effect of two different potentially important design features on clinical reasoning skills and the student experience. These are the branching case pathways (present or absent) and structured clinical reasoning feedback (present or absent).
Methods/Design
This is a multi-centre randomised 2x2 factorial design study evaluating two independent variables of VP design, branching (present or absent), and structured clinical reasoning feedback (present or absent).The study will be carried out in medical student volunteers in one year group from three university medical schools in the United Kingdom, Warwick, Keele and Birmingham. There are four core musculoskeletal topics. Each case can be designed in four different ways, equating to 16 VPs required for the research. Students will be randomised to four groups, completing the four VP topics in the same order, but with each group exposed to a different VP design sequentially. All students will be exposed to the four designs. Primary outcomes are performance for each case design in a standardized fifteen item clinical reasoning assessment, integrated into each VP, which is identical for each topic. Additionally a 15-item self-reported evaluation is completed for each VP, based on a widely used EViP tool. Student patterns of use of the VPs will be recorded.
In one centre, formative clinical and examination performance will be recorded, along with a self reported pre and post-intervention reasoning score, the DTI. Our power calculations indicate a sample size of 112 is required for both primary outcomes

‘Patrick, the First Churchman’ in the Protestant Vision of Ernest Bateman of Booterstown (1886–1979)
This chapter considers the case of the Reverend Ernest Bateman (1886–1979), Church of Ireland rector of Booterstown, County Dublin. Drawing on his sermons and other sources, the author examines how Bateman perceived and represented Patrick and then explores the implications of his Patrician model for his Protestant sense of Irish identity. At the time the episcopalian minority was still trying to come to terms with demotion from their long-held elite status, to what they regarded as second-class citizenship, while the Catholic church was relentlessly aggressive and intolerant in its attitude to the minority. An Irish patriot who became friendly with de Valera, Bateman continued nevertheless to maintain the Church of Ireland position, first set out by Archbishop Ussher in the seventeenth century, that the church founded by St Patrick was in all key respects more akin to the Church of Ireland than to the Catholic church. In that sense, Patrick represented the ‘first churchman’
The Bateman-type variational formalism for an acoustically-driven drop
By employing the Clebsch potentials, the Bateman-type variational formulation for a drop levitating in an acoustic
field is proposed when both fluids, liquid drop and external ullage gas, are barotropic, inviscid, compressible and admit
rotational flows.Використовуючи потенціали Клебша, пропонується варіаційне формулювання типу Бейтмена для краплі,
що левітує в акустичному полі, коли обидві рідини, крапля рідини та зовнішній газ є баротропними,
нев’язкими, стисливими та допускають вихорові рухи.The author acknowledges the financial support of the National Research Foundation of Ukraine
