BSU students take over downtown parking

MUNCIE – For one day, downtown Muncie saw an increase in public places and public art.
It all started nine years ago when Rebar, a San Francisco art and design studio, converted a metered parking space into a temporary public park by laying down sod, hauling in a 20-foot-tall tree in a container, and installing a park bench. The park was removed after two hours.
"That's now happening all over the world at thousands of sites," said Joseph Blalock, an associate professor of landscape architecture at Ball State University, who oversaw a student project that took over 10 parking spaces in downtown Muncie.
They created what assistant professor Simon Bussiere called "parklets."
Friday was International Park(ing) Day.
Bixia Zhou's parking space outside The Silo tavern replicated a bar, beneath which she caged three chickens to promote urban farming.
At another spot, Yanxin Liu painted waste car tires and re-used them as seats, a table, a container for plants and other objects.
In 2012, downtown master plan consultant Gianni Longo, an architect from New York City, said downtown Muncie suffered from, among other things, little open space, very little public space, very little green space, "vast amounts of parking space and vacant lots," and a lack of public art.
That art and design studio in San Francisco in 2005 was "sort of making a guerrilla political statement about the necessity for public parks and the lack of public parks in the urban environment," Blalock said. "It is a commentary about the need for public open space but also just a fun event and an opportunity for folks to get outside and enjoy public open space."
In front of the Toys Forever Models & Hobbies shop, Kris May's "sound garden" included shutters, steel drums and other objects that visitors could play like musical instruments using sticks.
"We wanted to give people a way to be playful," he said. "One way to do that is ... experiment with different sounds — shutters like a washboard."
Nathanael Gray's colorful installation outside The Caffeinery mirrored the coffee shop.
There was space for "semi-social" coffee shop customers who like to be in public but want to sit alone, and other space where customers could gather around a big table. He created an outdoor "wall" out of re-used, painted Styrofoam coffee cups.
The students plan to give presentations about their temporary art at the Indianapolis Museum of Art, at the Living Lightly Fair and at an upcoming ArtsWalk.

The Westphalian concept of state sovereignty is in serious decay. In our globalizing world many actors criticize a state if it violates human rights. Such an accusation seems empty rhetoric because a government is sovereign in its territory and an intervention would violate this sovereign right. This has resulted in a debate on whether the existing principle of state sovereignty should be changed. In 2001 a promising approach came to light with the publication of the report The Responsibility to Protect, written by the International Commission on Intervention and State Sovereignty (ICISS). The ICISS interpreted state sovereignty as a 'Responsibility to Protect' (R2P). This means that if a government fails to protect its citizens it will lose its sovereign rights, giving other states the possibility to intervene and protect these citizens.

The beta version of Android Market does not support notifying your users when you publish a new version of your application. This capability will be added soon, but currently the user must independently initiate download of an upgraded application. When you publish an upgrade, you can assist users by notifying them that the upgrade is available and giving them a way to download the upgraded application from Android Market.
1. Have your app occasionally check in with a web-service that you're running. This web service should return two values: the latest available version number for the application (corresponding toandroid:versionCode) and a URI string that your application can later send in an Intent, to launch Market and search for the upgraded application for the user.
The sections below provide information about publishing your Android application to mobile device users.

Why Legal Studies?
Law is not just for lawyers. Laws and legal actors shape and impact our lives everyday! Laws can protect our freedoms, but may also impose limits on our actions and opportunities. Laws can protect us, or confine and oppress us. Laws can help us address fundamental challenges we face as a society, or impose obstacles in our attempts to deal with these challenges. How will you address today's legal and social challenges?
Legal Studies strives to understand the nature and impact of law, legal actors and institutions integrating questions and methods drawn from a number of different disciplinary fields including communications, criminology, cultural studies, history, law, legal anthropology, political economy, political theory, and sociology. Legal Studies focuses on the complex nature of the interaction between law and other social fields to foster inquiry into and understanding of the dynamics of law, including its rules, agents, institutions and power structures.
Why Legal Studies at Carleton University?
Come be a part of the biggest and most vibrant centre for interdisciplinary Legal Studies research and teaching in North America! No other university in North America has as many full-time professors engaged in researching and teaching in the field of Legal Studies. Our department has more than 35 full-time professors, including award-winning researchers and teachers, who engage in interdisciplinary and multidisciplinary research in a number of fields. Many courses in our department are taught by practitioners, including lawyers working in private practice, government departments and non-governmental organizations. We also have an Activist in Residence program that provides our students access to an expert in human rights activism.
We offer a variety of activities outside the classroom. Our department hosts a wide range of academic and networking events that include speakers from around the world.

On behalf of Caskey & Holzman posted in wage and hour violations on Thursday, November 22, 2018.
Unfortunately, there are many employers in California that do not comply with California's wage and hour laws. Employers are generally required to pay employees the applicable minimum wage for all of the hours they work and comply with all applicable laws regarding working conditions.
Workers and families rely on the wages they work hard for each day so it is important that they receive compensation they have earned. A sampling of some of the wage and hour violations workers may be owed for include compensation for time in between jobs if they were paid by the job or piece; time the worker was unable to earn commission such as during opening, closing or meetings if they are paid on compensation; all overtime hours worked and overtime rates of pay; time when a worker was told to wait to clock in; and for time when a worker was sent home from their scheduled shift.
Additionally, workers may be owed compensation if they were not provided with the meal or rest breaks they are entitled to or if they had to wait to receive their final pay check when they have been terminated or left their job. Workers work hard for the wages they earn and devote important time away from their families to earn a living to support them which is why it is important that they are fairly, and lawfully, compensated for all of the work they put in.
When employers have violated wage and hour requirements, or workplace safety requirements, it is important for workers and their families to be familiar with the legal protections available to help them. Legal protestations are available as a resource in recognition of the important need for employees in California to be properly compensated for their work.


I've been seriously busy managing young children and a major life crisis, the full catastrophe living as Jon Kabat-Zinn puts it. I was also listening to a talk on Mindfulness and Beyond Mindfulness with Dr Rick Hanson and others and felt nudged into writing this article.
One of the key elements of Dr Hanson's speech was the negativity bias.
Back in the wilds when we were on survival, it made evolutionary sense to pay more attention to what was wrong than what was right. Paying attention to the negative meant survival, the bliss bunnies amongst us became lunch.
And so, the negativity bias passed itself along in our Genes and here we are twenty thousand years later running the same software.
Many of us have enough food, shelter, clean drinking water and good friends, and yet so many are miserable with our lot. Struggling for more and complaining relentlessly about what's wrong is the mark of the modern world. This is the negativity bias or 'Velcro for the negative' as Dr Hanson calls it.
Emotionally charged negative experiences fire up our amygdala and cause the release of the stress mediating hormone cortisol. Cortisol in excess kills neurons and prevents synaptic change and reduces the size of the thalamus. This means the communicative flow in the brain is reduced, creative change is difficult to implement and we often have issues with memory.
The reduced thalamus also leads to reduction in control of top down regulation from the thinking part of us over the hypothalamus. The hypothalamus controls all our glands and the stress mechanisms of the body. More cortisol is now generated with ease which causes more toxic effects in the brain. Our system is now sensitised for negativity and we are in a vicious cycle.
This increasing amygdala sensitisation leads to embedding the installation of these negativity filters, leading us relentlessly from state to trait, from tendency into habit.
This palaeolithic artefact with its unhealthy side effects that makes us poor at conscious learning and focus as well as leading to a host of immune problems and other disorders.
Here is one evolutionary exit route, we can move from stress as a creator of disorder to stress as a friend. Dr Kelly McGonigal suggests making stress a friend and states that it is our belief about stress being toxic that gives it its destructive power. If we honestly believe we can handle it, we will. As we handle it we get more oxytocin in the brain. Oxytocin is the neurotransmitter which moves us to seek contact with other humans, share our trouble and find love. So stress honoured brings us together. Stress battled with, draws us apart and into personal crisis, illness and death.
In my book, Engaged Yoga, I write about the evolutionary necessity of community, never more relevant in neoconservative Britain where those (the Old Etonians) who preach austerity don't know what on earth it means, the communities of those that do, need to pull together to thrive in the face of such policies. When we handle life stress in a satisfactory way we fire up dopamine, the reward neurotransmitter, and so what doesn't kill us literally makes us stronger.
However, there is also the Teflon effect. Here positive emotional experiences hit the non-stick of the neurons, they are less well attended to by the brain and drop through the neuro-filters of our experience and get lost amongst the sticky negative events which get velcro'd into our emotionally driven memory.
Why would we lose precious moments of beauty, love and power as they slip out of our memory circuits?
Because in palaeolithic times that sort of circuitry didn't help us make it to adulthood. Positive and beneficial states just wash through our brain because they don't fire up the amygdala.
So are we doomed to focus in increasingly sensitive spirals of negativity?
No! We have another out, another exit strategy from our ancestral neurological patterns.
What is this evolutionary strategy?
It's the power of awareness as cultivated in the practice of yoga and meditation.
The power of awareness and its qualities of attention and intention get us out of the pickle of the negativity spiral.
Cultivated in disciplined practices of meditation, mindfulness and other key awareness practices such as intelligent somatic yoga we can use attention and choose to give prominence to daily, mundane moments of ordinary beneficial experience, the smell of a flower, the smile of a child, the hug of our partner. Through behaving like this we are choosing to move out of palaeolithic brain entrainment into an evolutionary strategy of contemporary living.

Poland – from the first EBRD investment to a model of transition
By Katarzyna Kukula
The EBRD at 25: the Bank played a role in the country's success, and continues doing so
Poland has been a transition success story from when it received the EBRD's first ever investment 25 years ago to its development today into an increasingly flourishing economy that is firmly established within the European Union.
"I got politics and economics moving and then others took over," said Lech Wałęsa, who rose from being leader of the "Solidarność" trade union to become his country's national president.
EBRD at 25
We celebrate 25 years of investing for change
Wałęsa's labour movement not only brought down communism in Poland but also played an essential role in the collapse of the entire Soviet empire.
"Shock therapy" (or Starting Over)
Post-communist countries chose many different paths as they worked to become market economies. None was easy or without pain.
Poland, under Minister of Finance Leszek Balcerowicz, in 1989 introduced a "shock therapy" which freed prices and created room for private enterprise. Despite severe hardship the foundations for a functioning market economy were laid.
Poland was rewarded with rapid growth as the private sector became the engine of the economy. The country also started to attract foreign investors who saw great potential in a country with a large domestic market of almost 40 million people and a strategic location between Germany and Russia.
Banks were the pioneers and it was a bank, the Poznań-based Wielkopolski Bank Kredytowy (WBK), which became the EBRD's first business partner in May 1991 with a credit line for on-lending to local small businesses. It is a relationship that exists to this day: in 1995 Allied Irish Banks acquired a minority stake in WBK, with the EBRD and International Finance Corporation also becoming shareholders. Today, after a merger with Bank Zachodni, BZ WBK is Poland's third-largest bank and part of Grupa Santander.
With the Polish economy accelerating over the next decade, the EBRD's work in the country focused on privatisation and the development of the banking sector. Poland made rapid progress with integration into the global economy and EU membership in 2004 providing a great boost to its development.
The EBRD played a crucial role in the political and economic changes in Poland following the collapse of communism.
When in 2008 the global financial crisis reached the EBRD region, growth in Poland slowed, but it was the only country in the European Union that managed to escape recession. Not for one year did the country register a contraction of its economy. This strong resilience was built on robust public finances, a sound banking sector, a well-functioning regulatory regime and a flexible and adaptable economy. For many observers Poland became the poster child of a successful transition process.
Yet, challenges remain. Despite a successful record in utilising EU funds, the country still faces huge infrastructure needs, for instance in its transport and roads network. Poland still has one of the highest energy intensity rates in the EU and needs massive investment to lessen its dependence on coal. Despite the "shock therapy" a largely unreformed state sector consumes resources that are lacking elsewhere.
The EBRD remains active in addressing all these needs of the Polish economy. In recent years the Bank has continued to address specific areas where it still can make a relevant contribution, for instance in the development of the financial sector and capital markets or in providing finance for renewable sources of energy in a difficult regulatory environment.
The EBRD's Director for Poland, Grzegorz Zieliński, says: "Financing sustainable energy investments is one of the EBRD's outstanding areas of expertise and we are pleased to widen our activities in this area."
Overall, since 1991 the EBRD has invested more than €7.8 billion in Poland and become one of the largest investors in the country. An example of a recent successful project is the DCT Gdańsk container terminal in northern Poland, which is expected to boost the regional economy throughout the Baltics by significantly increasing the port's handling capacity.
As the Polish revolution started in Gdańsk it is only fitting that the latest EBRD success story is also taking place here.
Timeline of the EBRD's history
From our founding in 1991 to the present day


When the FBI brings Laura Roberts – a quiet, reserved bookkeeper – in for questioning regarding activities at the warehouse where she works, an uneasy Laura resigns her job – only to be attacked by thugs. Chase Donovan intends to spend a few peaceful days on his boat getting his head together – and finds a woman being assaulted by two men who say his father told them to do it. Chase doesn't want to believe his father could hurt anyone. Laura doesn't understand why she's a target. Can they learn to work together to discover the truth – before someone dies?
Romantic suspense is one of my favorite genres. I love the action, mystery and seeing two people thrown together in a high stress situation. Magic Moments by Angela Adams was a fun ride, filled with danger and a romance featuring one of my favorite tropes.
The set up for Magic Moments is an excellent one. Laura is approached, detained and questioned by the FBI in regards to her bookkeeping job and the dockside Fruit Company, who employs her. It scares her, and she hands in her resignation. These events have her kidnapped, drugged and tied to a bed inside a sailboat. As she prepares herself for the unthinkable Chase Donovan rescues her. He owns the boat where she was attacked and is the son of her former employer. The thugs claim Donovan's Dad hired them, but Chase is having a hard time believing his father would ever hurt Laura. Laura is not sure if she can trust Chase, but the two decide to work together to find the truth.
The tale that unfolds was captivating. Adams used a few of my favorite tropes including the marriage arrangement, but she added her own unique twists. The relationship that developed between Laura and Chase resembled insta-love at the beginning and I rolled my eyes. However, Adams slowed things down and allowed them to grow, and flounder as a couple before declarations of undying love. The romance itself is sweet, fade to black and will have broad appeal. The investigation was interesting with several well crafted plot twists. The FBI and the family relationship made for some exciting developments. Chase and Laura are an attractive couple, but their relationship is a rocky one. Miscommunication, emotions and family meddling created some turbulence in the middle of this ride. I may have wanted to smack them both in the back of the head a time or too, but there is growth and I genuinely cared about them. The tale started off intense, meandered in the middle and took off during the last portion of the book as the tension escalated. I closed this book satisfied with the ride.
If you are looking for quick suspense and sweet romance, then Magic Moments offers a delightful escape. Adams spins a good tale, and I look forward to reading more of her work.
I really enjoy a good romantic suspense novel too, but miscommunications & a meddling family can be annoying. The romance does sounds good.
Romantic suspense is one of my favorite genres Stephanie.
this doesn't sound like quite the right for me, but thanks for sharing! I've never heard of the title before.
The cover would have stopped me cold, love it. Everything about the book hooked me, even with the meandering in the middle and insta-love. They frustrate me and I love a novel that keeps me racing through the pages hanging by my fingertips, but if the story ends on a high note, I can let some things slide.
Agreed Sherry, that is how I felt.
I'm pretty sure I have this somewhere, either on kindle or on my bookshelf. Am a little sad to hear that is stalls in the middle (why is it so many books do that?!), but good to know it picks up again!!
It happens Sabina, it wasn't too bad of a stall, but I like when the ebb and flow is consistent throughout.
Wow this sounds like it has EVERYTHING we all want in a romantic suspense. Thanks for the rec!
I enjoy any kind of suspense, but romantic suspense is better as it isn't as gritty and dark. I think I would like this one.
What a great sounding mystery! Great review.
Thanks Jenea it was a fun read.
I did not know your character in Magic Moment is a bookkeeper. I need to read it for sure. As a CPA myself, I like to read stories involving accountants just to see how the author handled the technical issues.
I like romantic suspense because the intensity of the situation usually makes the romance even better. I just don't seem to read them often. This one sounds good though!
I am so glad the insta slowed down and the relationship was allowed to develop and grow. I also love the arranged marriage (fake or real) trope, it is kind of a fun one.
I love any kind of arranged marriage, this was fake and it always makes for delicious interaction and development.
I backed away a bit when you said insta-love, but I'm glad she slowed things down and let them struggle a bit. The scenario is definitely interesting – I already feel Laura. First taken by the FBI for questioning, that scares her into quitting, so I can only imagine how she freaks out when she's KIDNAPPED! Wow, poor thing. Great review Kimba!
I know right..I was worried, but then it slowed down.
This one definitely sparks my interest. I am a romantic suspense addict. Thanks for sharing.
Sounds like a good read! My first introduction to romantic suspense was Mary Stewart's books, back when I was in high school. I didn't start reading any contemporary authors until I picked up a Jayne Ann Krentz four or five years ago. Now I enjoy the genre as long as the suspense part isn't too dark and violent!
I can do dark and violent but agree romantic suspense is one of my favorite genres.
I recently discovered Romantic Suspense (Rebecca Zanetti's SINS BROTHERS), and I want more! I've turned into a total romance junkie since I got married. LOL Thanks for feeding my addiction, Kimberly!
Generally not a good thing when you're kidnapped — definitely time to quit that job!
Almost every subject has been done in fiction, so it's that unique twist that makes us keep reading. Sounds like this book has that uniqueness.
Romantic Suspense is one of my favorite genres too. There is nothing that makes me feel better than cracking open one when I just need some cheering up.
This one really does sound exciting and I am so glad you enjoyed it, Kimba!!
Glad you enjoy this genre too Rashika!
Thank you so much for the review! I'm glad you enjoyed the book.
I love books (and movies) with FBI stuff but not really arranged marriages lol. I'm too independent so I can I can't really connect with the story in those kinds of situations. Though there are exceptions. 😛 Fantastic review!
These are fake arranged marriages or relationships not like historical ones Lola.
Oh, no! A kidnapping story. Eh, those are always so emotionally draining for me. So Chase is her knight in shining armor? 😉 Heh yay. I love the marriage arrangement plots too though *cringes* instaaa. No, thanks! I'm glad you liked this tension-filled book as a whole.

India's Top Oil Refiner Boosts Operations As Demand Picks Up
By Tsvetana Paraskova - May 11, 2020, 2:30 PM CDT
As India's fuel demand picks up from April lows, Indian Oil Corporation (IOC), the country's biggest refiner and fuel retailer, is gradually boosting operations across its refineries and aims to raise utilization to 80 percent by the end of May, compared to 45 percent in early April.
Indian Oil's refineries currently operate at around 60 percent of their design capacities, while plans are to boost those utilization rates to about 80 percent of capacity by the end of this month, the company said in a statement on Monday.
"The Corporation's refineries were operating full throttle before the COVID lockdown but had to curtail throughputs and bring operations down to nearly 45% of design capacities by the first week of Apr. '20 in view of product containment issues forced by a steep drop in demand," the refiner said, noting that even at low capacity utilization, it was on standby to scale up oil refining throughputs once demand begins to recover.
In April, gasoline and diesel demand in the world's third-largest oil importer, India, was estimated to have crashed by around 60 percent annually due to the nationwide lockdown to curb the spread of the coronavirus.
India – with a population of 1.3 billion people – went into a nationwide lockdown at the end of March. It has since extended that lockdown to the middle of May.
Due to this lockdown and to India's struggles to contain the spread of the coronavirus, fuel demand plummeted in April. Refineries then cut run rates and struggled to store crude and refined products in the dwindling available storage capacity.
Now the increased crude processing throughput at the largest Indian oil refiner suggests that the worst of the demand loss may be over in the world's third-biggest oil importer.
With lockdowns eased in some European countries and U.S. states, gasoline demand worldwide has also been crawling up in the past two weeks, fueling hopes that oil demand for road transportation could lead the recovery of global oil demand.

MYANMAR GOVT. TO AGGRESSIVELY CLUTCH OIL & GAS PRODUCTION TENDERS
The Ministry of Electricity and Energy of Myanmar has recently announced that it has decided to hold its offshore oil and gas production tenders, that are expected to bring new investments in this sector. The Director of the Myanma Oil and Gas Enterprise's (MOGE), confirmed that new tenders will be floating before the year end.
According to reports, there are currently 51 offshore and 53 onshore blocks in Myanmar, and amongst them 38 offshore and 35 onshore blocks fall under the category where production and exploration activities are been carried out. The state-owned MOGE said that it is planning to hold tenders for the remaining free blocks.
MOGE officials unveiled that the tenders for the free blocks will be kept open to local as well as foreign companies that are interested to carry out exploration & production activities at the existing wells.
MOGE will also be encouraging the foreign investors to partner with the local firms, thereby ensuring that the domestic players benefit from foreign oil & gas production and exploration technologies.
Daw Khin Htay, the Director of MOGE was quoted saying that the ministry will be revising and easing its regulations by removing its existing rule of it being mandatory for foreign firms to form JVs with local firms. Instead the ministry will be replacing it as a voluntary step in future.
If reports are to be believed, MOEE's (Ministry of Electricity and Energy) attempt to make local firms register their interest in foreign firms failed because the new developments were brought at a time when existing wells had noticed a rapid decline in their production level. So far, zero registrations have been made.
According to Daw Khin Htay, companies could be taking time to make essential preparation as no specific deadline is been made for registration.
For the record, in 2011, 146 Myanmar firms had registered with MOEE during its last tender round.

« Ten Steps for Radical Revolution in USA | Main | The First Amendment Dog »
A Revolutionary Spiritual Praxis
Paul Wilson, translator of several of Václav Havel's works, including his celebrated Letters to Olga (1983/1988), and one-time member of the underground band, The Plastic People of the Universe, has an eloquent and moving remembrance in the latest issue of the New York Review of Books:
[….] "[Havel's] vision [was] based on a democratic politics underpinned by a strong civil society and rooted in common decency, morality, and respect for the rule of law and human rights; a politics that sought to transcend racial, cultural, and religious differences by articulating a 'moral minimum' that Havel believed existed at the heart of most faiths and cultures and that would provide a basis for agreement and cooperation without sacrificing the unique gifts that each person, each culture, and each 'sphere of civilization' could bring to enrich modern life. [....]
Like many great Czechs before him, Havel insisted on the importance of truth, but with a difference. 'Truth and love,' he was fond of saying, 'must prevail over lies and hatred.' He was often ridiculed for what seemed like a Hallmark sentiment ('Why love?' people asked), but he defended the slogan by referring to one of his greatest insights: truth, by itself, is a malleable concept that depends for its truthfulness on who utters it, to whom it is said, and under what circumstances. As a playwright, Havel turned this insight into a dramatic device: in most of his plays, the main characters constantly lie to one another and to themselves, using words that, in other circumstances, would be perfectly truthful. Truth by itself is not enough: it needs a guarantor, someone to stand behind it. It must be uttered with no thought for gain, that is, in Havel's words, with a love that seeks nothing for itself and everything for others.*
We are close to religious territory here, and indeed, in the week of leave-taking in Prague, I heard many discussions about Havel's true beliefs. Was he a Catholic and, if not, was the high mass in St. Vitus's Cathedral the right way to send him off? Yes, replied some, he had been raised a Catholic and been confirmed as a young man. Sister Veritas said she felt that Havel was "with God" more profoundly than many observant Catholics, but she admitted that he had neither asked for nor received the last rites before he died. One of his last conversations was with the Dalai Lama, whom he considered a spiritual guru. But in the circumstances, such questions seemed inconsequential, even scholastic. Havel was a deeply spiritual man who expressed his spirituality, if that is the right word, almost entirely through his actions in the world." [….]
* The idea here of "no thought for gain" or "a love that seeks nothing for itself and everything for others," might favorably be compared to Gandhi's stress on anāśakti (selflessness, selfless action; non-attachment, desirelessness). As Raghavan Iyer writes, this concept is "the central teaching of the Gītā [and] transcends ahimsa, which is a necessary preliminary, and is included in it." In effect, for Gandhi, anāśakti yoga is equivalent to karma-yoga, which can be defined as the endeavor to express one's spirituality "almost entirely through…actions in the world."
Hat tip to Mark Edwards, who let me know of this essay (I've yet to receive my hard copy of the NYRB) in his latest installment at Concurring Opinions: "Vaclav Havel, Part V: Prison, Torment and Temptation."

Development, regulation, pricing, and reimbursement of medical devices and diagnostic products.
Pharmaceutical company payments can significantly influence physician prescribing behavior, according to a recent National Bureau of Economics Research (NBER) Working Paper by LDI Senior Fellows Matthew Grennan, Ashley Swanson, and colleagues.
We recently convened an expert roundtable to tackle how health systems, payers, and providers can spur the 'de-adoption' of medical practices and technologies no longer considered valuable. This got us thinking - while the process by which ineffective practices or technologies are abandoned is neither simple nor automatic, even the language used to describe it is not clear. And language matters. It often reflects an unstated focus on one mechanism or one level of decision-making. Here we review, and potentially clarify, the terminology.
