Parallel texts are documents that present parallel translations. This paper describes a simple method that can be deployed on a real-time news feed to create an infinitely growing source of parallel texts in French and English. Our experiment was lead on the Canada Newswire news feed. Given some of its intrinsic properties, it was possible to deploy a relatively simple text matching techniques ...

AIM The purpose of this study was to compare strength differences between 2 groups of untrained women, who performed a single set of the leg press exercise once or twice per week. METHODS Twenty-one women were divided randomly into 2 groups: Group 1 (n=10) performed a single set of the leg press exercise once per week, while Group 2 (n=11) performed a single set of the leg press exercise twic...

This study verified if a prior 5 repetition maximum (5RM) strength exercise would improve the cycling performance during a 20-km cycling time trial (TT20km). After determination of the 5RM leg press exercise load, 11 trained cyclists performed a TT20km in a control condition and 10-minute after 4 sets of 5RM strength exercise bouts (potentiation condition). Oxygen uptake, blood lactate concentr...

Negative campaigning presents parties with a collective action problem. While parties would prefer to have their competitors attacked, potential backlash effects from negative messages mean that individual politicians typically lack the incentives to carry out such attacks. We theorize that parties solve this problem by implementing a division of labour that takes into account the incentives of...

BACKGROUND Research evaluating mediated physical activity campaigns uses an unsophisticated conceptualization of the media and would benefit from the application of a media studies approach. The purpose of this article is to report on the application of this type of analysis to the Canada on the Move media campaign. METHODS Through interviews and document analysis, the press release surroundi...

We explore whether men and women differ in their attack behavior and how party environments condition these differences. Whereas the literature on gender and negative campaigning is almost exclusively focused on the United States, we theorize that in European multiparty systems with strong and cohesive parties, the party environment has a significant impact on whether male and female politician...

Rather than supposing a transition between forms of life conceived as distinct and whole, one nomadic and the other sedentary, post-nomadism suggests transformations of a nomadic way of life without assuming that they constitute a trajectory toward a sedentist notion of becomin...
