 | | | | Jesus Prayer Practice We pray because we believe the Creator of the Universe can not only hear us but that He will answer when we pray. This means that prayer is a form of spiritual communication with a superior transcendent reasoning power who responds often without human language. It was the regular practice of Jesus to engage in this form of communication with his heavenly Father. |

| Gender, electrodermal activity, and videogames: Adding a psychophysiological dimension to sociolinguistic methods User experience research on the affective dimensions of videogame players' interactions has looked to psychophysiological measures as proxies for emotional states. We add to the growing body of literature on this topic and offer our research as a novel application to the methodological toolbox of sociolinguistics. We present a case study of an interaction occurring in a mixed-gender group (3m/1f) playing a video game that has a potentially sexualized component in gameplay, using a Nintendo Wii-mote joystick as a mimetic penis in the game Mario Party 8. Through a detailed analysis of (1)... |

| Imagining Poland as a Country with Open Doors to Jewish People Jews have for centuries contributed much to Polish culture and society. Jews were an integral part of what it meant to be Polish. Unfortunately, from a height of over 3 million before the Holocaust, only an estimated 10-20 thousand Jews still live in Poland today. Poland now finds itself at a crossroads of sorts, where long-standing official policies, some church teachings, and personal belief systems conspire in the exclusion of Jews, while a still relatively small but growing segment of the population genuinely desires to welcome Jews back into the cultural, political, and social life of... |

| Klaus Mollenhauer: Bildung and six questions for Education. Klaus Mollenhauer (1928-1998) is one of the most important German theorists of education of the postwar era.

As Saevi, Wivestad and others have described, this book can be seen as organized around six main... |

| The Sociological Review Is bisexuality invisible? A review of sexualities scholarship 1970–2015 This article provides a review of sexualities scholarship within the social sciences between 1970 and 2015. It takes an innovative approach by focusing on the way in which bisexuality is addressed in this body of literature. The article reveals the marginalisation, under-representation and invisibility of bisexuality within and across the social sciences in relation to both bisexual experience and identity. Reasons for this varied across the different eras, including the heterosexist nature of the literature, the impact of gay and lesbian-focused identity politics, and queer... |

| Band-Aids Don't Fix Bullet Holes Hayes, Juarez, and Escoffery-Runnels (2014) analyzed the educational philosophies and pedagogical practices of two educators to understand how personal and professional experiences individually and collectively influenced their approach to teaching. Using oral histories, they presented an argument of why culturally relevant and social justice– oriented teaching has historically been an effective tool in educating students of color, and why it is necessary for teacher preparation in today's so-called post-racial climate. We suggest that that the education system is merely a microcosm of... |
