Bentonites are readily available clays used in the livestock industry as feed additives to reduce aflatoxin (AF) exposure; their potential interaction with nutrients is the main concern limiting their use, however. The objective of the present study was to determine the safety of a dietary sodium-bentonite (Na-bentonite) supplement as a potential AF adsorbent, using juvenile Sprague Dawley (SD) rats as a research model. Animals were fed either a control diet or a diet containing Na-bentonite at 0.25% and 2% (w/w) inclusion rate. Growth, serum, and blood biochemical parameters, including selected serum vitamins (A and E) and elements such as calcium (Ca), potassium (K), iron (Fe), and zinc (Zn) were measured. The mineral characteristics and the aflatoxin B1 sorption capacity of Na-bentonite were also determined. By the end of the study, males gained more weight than females in control and Na-bentonite groups (p ≤ 0.0001); the interaction between treatment and sex was not significant (p = 0.6780), however. Some significant differences between the control group and bentonite treatments were observed in serum biochemistry and vitamin and minerals measurements; however, parameters fell within reference clinical values reported for SD rats and no evidence of dose-dependency was found. Serum Na and Na/K ratios were increased, while K levels were decreased in males and females from Na-bentonite groups. Serum Zn levels were decreased only in males from Na-bentonite treatments. Overall, results showed that inclusion of Na-bentonite at 0.25% and 2% did not cause any observable toxicity in a 3-month rodent study.

Aflatoxin contamination of diets results in disease and death in humans and animals. The objective of the present paper was to review the development of innovative enterosorption strategies for the detoxification of aflatoxins. NovaSil clay (NS) has been shown to decrease exposures to aflatoxins and prevent aflatoxicosis in a variety of animals when included in their diets. Results have shown that NS clay binds aflatoxins with high affinity and high capacity in the gastrointestinal tract, resulting in a notable reduction in the bioavailability of these toxins without interfering with the utilization of vitamins and other micronutrients. This strategy is already being utilized as a potential remedy for acute aflatoxicosis in animals and as a sustainable intervention via diet. Animal and human studies have confirmed the apparent safety of NS and refined NS clay (with uniform particle size). Studies in Ghanaians at high risk of aflatoxicosis have indicated that NS (at a dose level of 0.25% w/w) is effective at decreasing biomarkers of aflatoxin exposure and does not interfere with levels of serum vitamins A and E, iron, or zinc. A new spinoff of this strategy is the development and use of broad-acting sorbents for the mitigation of environmental chemicals and microbes during natural disasters and emergencies. In summary, enterosorption strategies/therapies based on NS clay are promising for the management of aflatoxins and as sustainable public health interventions. The NS clay remedy is novel, inexpensive, and easily disseminated.

Accurate clay mineral identification is key to understanding past aqueous activity on Mars, but martian phyllosilicates are old (>3.5 Ga) and have been heavily bombarded by meteoroid impacts. Meteoroid impacts can alter clay mineral structures and spectral signatures, making accurate remote sensing identifications challenging. This paper uses nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectroscopy to examine the short-range structural deformation induced in clay mineral samples of known composition by artificial impacts and calcination. Structural changes are then related to changes in the visible-near infrared (VNIR) and mid-infrared (MIR) spectra of these clay mineral samples. The susceptibility of phyllosilicates to structural deformation after experimental impacts varies by structure. Experimental results showed that trioctahedral, Mg(II)-rich saponite was structurally resilient up to peak pressures of 39.8 GPa and its unchanged post-impact spectra reflected this. Experimental data on kaolinite showed that this Al(III)-rich, dioctahedral phyllosilicate was susceptible to structural alteration at peak pressures ⩾ 25.1 GPa. This result is similar to previously reported experimental results on the Fe(III)-rich dioctahedral smectite nontronite, suggesting that dioctahedral phyllosilicates may be more susceptible to shock-induced structural deformation than trioctahedral phyllosilicates. The octahedral vacancies present in dioctahedral phyllosilicates may drive this increased susceptibility to deformation relative to trioctahedral phyllosilicates with fully occupied octahedral sheets. Thermal alteration accompanies shock in meteoroid impacts, but shock differs from thermal alteration. NMR spectroscopy showed that structural deformation in thermally altered phyllosilicates differs from that found in shocked phyllosilicates. Similar to shock, dioctahedral phyllosilicates are also more susceptible to thermal alteration. This differential susceptibility to impact-alteration may help explain generic smectite identifications from heavily bombarded terrains on Mars.

Objective:
Retrospective self-report is typically used for diagnosing previous pediatric traumatic brain injury (TBI). A new semi-structured interview instrument (New Mexico Assessment of Pediatric TBI; NewMAP TBI) investigated test–retest reliability for TBI characteristics in both the TBI that qualified for study inclusion and for lifetime history of TBI.
Method:One-hundred and eight-four mTBI (aged 8–18), 156 matched healthy controls (HC), and their parents completed the NewMAP TBI within 11 days (subacute; SA) and 4 months (early chronic; EC) of injury, with a subset returning at 1 year (late chronic; LC).
Results:The test–retest reliability of common TBI characteristics [loss of consciousness (LOC), post-traumatic amnesia (PTA), retrograde amnesia, confusion/disorientation] and post-concussion symptoms (PCS) were examined across study visits. Aside from PTA, binary reporting (present/absent) for all TBI characteristics exhibited acceptable (≥0.60) test–retest reliability for both Qualifying and Remote TBIs across all three visits. In contrast, reliability for continuous data (exact duration) was generally unacceptable, with LOC and PCS meeting acceptable criteria at only half of the assessments. Transforming continuous self-report ratings into discrete categories based on injury severity resulted in acceptable reliability. Reliability was not strongly affected by the parent completing the NewMAP TBI.
Conclusions:Categorical reporting of TBI characteristics in children and adolescents can aid clinicians in retrospectively obtaining reliable estimates of TBI severity up to a year post-injury. However, test–retest reliability is strongly impacted by the initial data distribution, selected statistical methods, and potentially by patient difficulty in distinguishing among conceptually similar medical concepts (i.e., PTA vs. confusion).

The evolution of glyphosate resistance in weedy species places an environmentally benign herbicide in peril. The first report of a dicot plant with evolved glyphosate resistance was horseweed, which occurred in 2001. Since then, several species have evolved glyphosate resistance and genomic information about nontarget resistance mechanisms in any of them ranges from none to little. Here, we report a study combining iGentifier transcriptome analysis, cDNA sequencing, and a heterologous microarray analysis to explore potential molecular and transcriptomic mechanisms of nontarget glyphosate resistance of horseweed. The results indicate that similar molecular mechanisms might exist for nontarget herbicide resistance across multiple resistant plants from different locations, even though resistance among these resistant plants likely evolved independently and available evidence suggests resistance has evolved at least four separate times. In addition, both the microarray and sequence analyses identified non–target-site resistance candidate genes for follow-on functional genomics analysis.

The anticipated release of EnlistTM cotton, corn, and soybean cultivars likely will increase the use of 2,4-D, raising concerns over potential injury to susceptible cotton. An experiment was conducted at 12 locations over 2013 and 2014 to determine the impact of 2,4-D at rates simulating drift (2 g ae ha−1) and tank contamination (40 g ae ha−1) on cotton during six different growth stages. Growth stages at application included four leaf (4-lf), nine leaf (9-lf), first bloom (FB), FB + 2 wk, FB + 4 wk, and FB + 6 wk. Locations were grouped according to percent yield loss compared to the nontreated check (NTC), with group I having the least yield loss and group III having the most. Epinasty from 2,4-D was more pronounced with applications during vegetative growth stages. Importantly, yield loss did not correlate with visual symptomology, but more closely followed effects on boll number. The contamination rate at 9-lf, FB, or FB + 2 wk had the greatest effect across locations, reducing the number of bolls per plant when compared to the NTC, with no effect when applied at FB + 4 wk or later. A reduction of boll number was not detectable with the drift rate except in group III when applied at the FB stage. Yield was influenced by 2,4-D rate and stage of cotton growth. Over all locations, loss in yield of greater than 20% occurred at 5 of 12 locations when the drift rate was applied between 4-lf and FB + 2 wk (highest impact at FB). For the contamination rate, yield loss was observed at all 12 locations; averaged over these locations yield loss ranged from 7 to 66% across all growth stages. Results suggest the greatest yield impact from 2,4-D occurs between 9-lf and FB + 2 wk, and the level of impact is influenced by 2,4-D rate, crop growth stage, and environmental conditions.

Summary
Although this will be a simple and short chapter it will break new ground. Our aim is to answer some fundamental and often asked questions about public rudeness in a systematic way. How often do people encounter it? What is it? Where does it happen? Who does it? Is it deliberate or accidental? Who experiences victimization? Using some basic statistics we will be able to draw up a portrait of the kinds of events and people that are to be found in the world of everyday incivility. We can start with the most basic issue of all. What is logically needed for an incivil encounter with a rude stranger to take place in public? The answer is simple. There are three components: first, there must be an action interpreted as incivil that occurs in a public setting; second, this is committed by a stranger, either by accident or deliberately; third, it is experienced by a self-described victim. Here we look at each of these in turn. In effect, we will describe what happened and where, who did it and to whom.
The rude event
First, how prevalent are encounters with rude strangers? The ELIAS data show that about a third of respondents reported a rude event during the past month (508 of 1,621 respondents, or 31 per cent). As one might expect, the likelihood of encountering this type of incivility is substantially higher than more invasive interpersonal events such as crime victimizations.

Summary
In traditional societies most people lived in bands or in villages, their geographic horizons usually defined by how far one could walk in a day. Such familiar environments were largely without strangers. Passing migrants, gypsies, tinkers, charlatans and traders were noteworthy interruptions in biographies filled with known others, mostly family and neighbours. Even in courtly society unknown outsiders were something of a novelty. One thinks of the stir caused by the arrival of a company of travelling players in Shakespeare's Hamlet. By contrast, much of lived experience in modern societies takes place in the close physical presence of strangers. Urbanization and the evolution of affordable technologies for daily travel have led to the increased social densities and circulations that see strangers thrown against each other. Of course, at home and at work the stranger is relatively absent. Yet out in public the situation is very different.
Remarkably little objective information is known about our social connectedness with, beliefs about, or quality of interactions among those anonymous people with whom we must share public space. Still, respondents to surveys seem to be confident in claiming that things have gone to the dogs and are getting worse. The Public Agenda (2002) survey of 2001 found 79 per cent of American respondents saying that ‘lack of respect and courtesy is a serious problem for our society’, and 73 per cent believing that there was more respect around in the past. These impressions are generally supported rather than critiqued in the academic literature.

Summary
So far we have mapped out some basic issues. We know about the identities of perpetrators and victims. We also know what the commonplace forms of incivility look like. We have found out where and when and even why many encounters with rude strangers take place. In this chapter things become a little more complex. As we explained at the outset, this book is a study of encounters between two people. Here we look at how these meetings unfold over time. We focus on two important questions: just how do people feel when they encounter the rude stranger? What, if anything, do they do to remedy the situation?
Emotions and incivility
The existing literature suggests that we already know the answer to both these questions. Writing back in the early 1970s the famous symbolic interactionist Erving Goffman (1971) established the template with his work Relations in Public. Here the life of city dwellers is described as one revolving around suspicion and mistrust. As they navigate urban spaces they scan for dangers, constantly on guard and feeling unease. The emotions of fear and anxiety are barely suppressed and the encounter with the incivil other is traumatizing. Individuals develop action strategies of retreat and avoidance. This vision has been amplified more recently in the critical sociology of Zygmunt Bauman (2003), who identifies ‘mixophobic’ sentiments in the metropolis and suggests that social life is organized such that individuals avoid encounters with difference and risk as they move between secure bubbles dotted around the city: the home in a gated community, the mall, the country club, the office.

Summary
Our major finding in our previous chapter was the very ordinary quality of incivility. It took place in everyday locations like the supermarket and car park. Rude people were generally not thugs, lurkers or even troublesome teens. They were as diverse in terms of age, gender and appearance as their victims. We also showed that rudeness could be found in a variety of low-level impolite acts. These were not threatening, malicious or crime-related deeds. Finally, a substantial proportion of events involved movement. Put together these clues suggest that rudeness should be studied as a commonplace rather than exceptional act. It is somehow structured into the opportunity spaces of daily life. It is a product of our mundane trajectories through public environments where there are strangers.
Routine activity and predictable incivility
One way to think about this finding is with routine activity theory (Cohen and Felson 1979). Developed in the field of criminology, this shifts our attention away from the study of deviants and offenders towards the analysis of situations and opportunities. The argument is that we can understand certain forms of crime without having to inquire into motivations, or without looking to faulty values and failed socialization for our explanatory context. Arguing that any given crime has to take place at a certain time and at a certain place, routine activity theory asks questions such as: when do victims and offenders come together? At what time of day are guardians away from attractive property? How do people keep safe?

Summary
This book is the product of several years of collaborative activity by the three authors in various combinations. Describing this division of labour is somewhat complex, but might be helpful to readers should they wish to direct questions to the team. The original grant proposals, focus group pilot work, survey instrument design and administration, conceptual thinking about the new area and the book proposal were the work of Timothy Phillips and Philip Smith. The former was particularly responsible for figuring out how to capture something commonplace yet elusive using survey methods. Smith is the chief author of Chapters 1, 8 and 9, although contributions from the other two team members were also made. Chapters 2, 3 and 4 were initially written by Smith and Phillips, then revised by Ryan King as the book developed. Chapters 5, 6 and 7 were equally authored by King and Smith. Some material from Phillips appears at the start of the last of these.
Along the way this book has had the benefit of support from the many institutions that sheltered its authors at one point or another in the research or writing process.

Summary
We have tried to be as clear as possible in this book and to write scholarly material in a way that will appeal to a general audience. Still, books like this one can be wordy. Also the complex statistical tables can result in an overload of information, especially for general readers. Although we have included summary bullets at the end of each chapter, we would like to conclude with a more crisp and conversational outline of what we have discovered and what remains to be found out.
The following series of questions and answers replicates what we are often asked during both academic seminars and public talks. It offers a shortcut to the entire book. Scholars who require higher academic standards and a more serious tone, or those looking for extra information after reading an answer here must return to the book itself.
Why research the rude stranger?
Rudeness is a commonplace feature of everyday life. It impacts upon pretty much everyone. We should know about it. In the mass media and on the Internet we find a lot of chatter about this. Politicians often crusade for civility. Academic researchers looking at social capital, crime and everyday life have important things to say on these topics. Their ideas have substantially influenced policy and political agendas (Chapter 1).
Don't we already know a lot about rudeness?
No. We really have no idea at all.
