Pottermania'', or the crazed transnational consumption of the most popular children's fantasy fiction series in publishing history, has swept across urban China. It took place along with the rapid emergence of the country's middle-class culture since the 1990s, marked primarily by a robust consumer revolution constructed as both reality and global dream. Even before China's official membership in the World Trade Organization began, Harry Potter (translated into Chinese) had been widely popular in affluent urban centers, bringing a foreign cultural impact that accompanies the economic tidal waves promised by the accession to the WTO. This essay explores the relationships between local consumption of a transnational cultural text/intertext and the formation of an emerging social imaginary about the urban Chinese middle class. It suggests that the Potter series promotes an alternating valorization and critique of capitalist consumption, which provides young Chinese readers, growing up in the midst of a consumer revolution, with a dialectic of enchantment. It is argued that this enchantment presents a productive tension with which to theorize the current moment of Chinese consumerist capitalism.

J Eroglu, S; Erdal, YS Eroglu, S.; Erdal, Y. S. Why did the frequency of palatine torus increase in the ancient Anatolian populations? HOMO-JOURNAL OF COMPARATIVE HUMAN BIOLOGY English Article DISCRETE TRAITS; BONE-DENSITY; ORAL TORI; MANDIBULARIS; PREVALENCE; CONCURRENCE; EXOSTOSES; ANOMALIES; VARIANTS; SKULLS The frequency of the palatine torus varies in various Populations from different regions of the world. In this Study, the change of frequency of palatine torus is examined using 387 skulls from 12 different ancient Anatolian populations in various periods ranging from the Early Bronze Age to the first quarter or the 20th century. While the frequency of palatine torus is 45% in the Early Bronze Age, this ratio steadily increases to 87% in the Ottoman Period and finally declines to 40% during the recent period. It was determined that the increase in the frequency of the palatine torus is statistically significant across different periods from the Early Bronze Age until the 20th century. Constituting a passageway between Asia and Europe and being located oil the crossroads of the most important trade route of the Medieval Period, the Silk Road, Anatolia is known to have been subjected to recurring invasions and migrations since the 11 th century A.D. Therefore, it is possible to say that, with the introduction of the Mongoloid influence in Anatolia, genetic flow has had a significant role in the observed increase in the frequency of this trait.

This study analyzes the characteristics of calls for parents' participation in such programs through manipulation of the variables indicated by the Spoth and Redmond (1995) model as involved in the process (severity of the drug problem, susceptibility of the family's own children and existence of barriers to participation). Participants were 485 school pupils ages 12 to 14 years and their respective parents. Results show that the attempt to manipulate such variables did not have behavioral consequences in relation to participation in the family-based prevention program. There is a need for strategies that increase attendance of high-risk families in this type of intervention. The study's limitations are noted.

Poignancy: Mixed emotional experience in the face of meaningful endings JOURNAL OF PERSONALITY AND SOCIAL PSYCHOLOGY English Article mixed emotions; poignancy; endings; aging; socioemotional selectivity theory EXPRESSION; LIFE; AGE; AMBIVALENCE; PHYSIOLOGY; ATTITUDES; FEELINGS; YOUNGER; OLDER The experience of mixed emotions increases with age. Socioemotional selectivity theory suggests that mixed emotions are associated with shifting time horizons. Theoretically, perceived constraints on future time increase appreciation for life, which, in turn, elicits positive emotions such as happiness. Yet, the very same temporal constraints heighten awareness that these positive experiences come to an end, thus yielding mixed emotional states. In 2 studies, the authors examined the link between the awareness of anticipated endings and mixed emotional experience. In Study 1, participants repeatedly imagined being in a meaningful location. Participants in the experimental condition imagined being in the meaningful location for the final time. Only participants who imagined last times" at meaningful locations experienced more mixed emotions. In Study 2, college seniors reported their emotions on graduation day. Mixed emotions were higher when participants were reminded of the ending that they were experiencing. Findings suggest that poignancy is an emotional experience associated with meaningful endings.
