In the summer of 2018, the author was selected for the Junction Art Residency (JAR) programme, and for three months, he was integrated into the daily life of the Haines Junction village, a rural town in the Kluane region, Yukon. Like the rest of the Yukon, the Haines Junction village includes a sizable community of First Nation residents. To gain a practical understanding on how aboriginal principles and values shape life in Yukon, the author created a series of garments and accessories informed by the nature, histories and peoples of the Kluane region. This critical essay contextualizes the project and discusses the implications of using a magazine editorial as an alternative vehicle to disseminate it. With the direct participation of a diversity of Haines Junction’s residents, the author explored Yukon’s social and cultural complexities by means of integrating fashion design and public art methodologies. Titled The Junction Collection, the site-specific public fashion project incorporated locally available fabrics, traditionally harvested furs and upcycled materials. Throughout the design process, he consulted with indigenous makers, elders and knowledge keepers. Upon completing the series of garments, the author executed a photo shoot featuring Haines Junction’s residents wearing the outfits against the natural setting of the Kluane wilderness. Those images are the central content for the long-format magazine editorial presented and examined here. The critical essay argues that, as a visual narrative, this magazine editorial makes the project more accessible to the general public while effectively translating The Junction Collection’s theme of incorporating indigenous knowledge with contemporary aesthetics.

Complex Crystal

It is well known that a standing electron wavefield can be set up in a crystal such that its intensity peaks at the atomic sites or between the sites or in the case of more complex crystal, at one or another type of a site. The effect is usually referred to as channelling but this term is not entirely appropriate; by analogy with the more established particle channelling, electrons would have to be described as channelling either through the channels or through the channel walls, depending on the diffraction conditions.

The control of form or shape inheritance can be approached by studying the morphogenesis of bacterial viruses. Shape variants of bacteriophage T4 with altered protein shell (capsid) size and nucleic acid (DNA) content have been found by electron microscopy, and a mutant (E920g in gene 66) controlling head size has been described. This mutant produces short-headed particles which contain 2/3 the normal DNA content and which are non-viable when only one particle infects a cell (Fig. 1).We report here the isolation of a new mutant (191c) which also appears to be in gene 66 but at a site distinct from E920g. The most striking phenotype of the mutant is the production of about 10% of the phage yield as “giant” virus particles, from 3 to 8 times longer than normal phage (Fig. 2).

The Cost

The present study examines the effect of agency-level implementation variation on the cost-effectiveness of an evidence-based parent training program (Positive Parenting Program: “Triple P”). Staff from six community-based agencies participated in a five-day training to prepare them to deliver a 12-week Triple P parent training group to caregivers. Prior to the training, administrators and staff from four of the agencies completed a site readiness process intended to prepare them for the implementation demands of successfully delivering the group, while the other two agencies did not complete the process. Following the delivery of each agency’s first Triple P group, the graduation rate and average cost per class graduate were calculated. The average cost-per-graduate was over seven times higher for the two agencies that had not completed the readiness process than for the four completing agencies ($7,811 vs. $1,052). The contrast in costs was due to high participant attrition in the Triple P groups delivered by the two agencies that did not complete the readiness process. The odds of Triple P participants graduating were 12.2 times greater for those in groups run by sites that had completed the readiness process. This differential attrition was not accounted for by between-group differences in participant characteristics at pretest. While the natural design of this study limits the ability to empirically test all alternative explanations, these findings indicate a striking cost savings for sites completing the readiness process and support the thoughtful application of readiness procedures in the early stages of an implementation initiative.

The article considers an innovative form of interaction between an educational organization and parents of students with autism spectrum disorder in inclusive education environment. A site developed by the author is presented, on the basis of which it is planned to implement pedagogical support for parents of students with autism spectrum disorder. The structure and approximate content of such a site are described. Each section of the site corresponds to certain areas of activity within the framework of pedagogical support of parents.
