The pectoralis muscle orientation as an indicator of the modes of wing‐propelled locomotion in birds
Journal of Anatomy, EarlyView.The pectoralis orientation of birds was consistent with the orientation of the aerodynamic force acting on the wing, varying by wing‐propelled locomotion (WPL) mode. The skeletal morphology unique to each WPL mode, related to the origin/insertion of the pectoralis, may be associated with these functional demands of pectoralis orientation.

Journal of Anatomy, EarlyView.Layer‐by‐layer passive ex vivo assessment of flexion–extension‐dominant limb joint ROM across rabbit, pudu deer, chilla fox and pig revealed joint‐, tissue‐ and taxon‐specific responses to progressive tissue removal. Proximal joints often showed increasing ROM, whereas distal joints often showed non‐monotonic responses.

Inferential communication: The primacy of external representations
Mind &Language, EarlyView.We argue that intentionalist accounts of ostensive‐inferential communication fail to adequately explain the role of external representations in human communication. We propose that the contents of a specific form of representational communication, symbolic depictions via spatio‐temporal arrangements of objects, can be inferred without attributing ...

New Technology, Work and Employment, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Unions are increasingly adopting digital tools, yet research often portrays them as lagging in the digital age. This article challenges that view by examining union agency in the digitalisation of voting. Drawing on qualitative interviews with union officials, digital consultants collaborating on developing digital union voting and 12 years of

Equity How and Equity for Whom? Incorporating Equity Into Local Government Budgeting Processes
Public Administration, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Social equity is politically polarized, with advocates contending that it is a governance mandate and opponents claiming that it promotes reverse discrimination and inefficiencies. When implementing policies and programs, local bureaucrats must maneuver within this legal, ethical, normative, and political battlefield.

Now, Again and Again: The Metaphysics of Many Presents
Pacific Philosophical Quarterly, EarlyView.ABSTRACT This paper discusses whether there can be multiple present moments. After presenting some reasons for thinking that the question is worthwhile, I challenge several objections to its possibility: worries about the exclusivity of tense; the nature of change, tense logic and semantics; and the apparent tension between multiple presents and an ...
