Ämne: [Tema-t] Open positions on Nuclear Futures: 1 Ass Prof + 1 PhD candidate – applications due 1 Dec 2025
Dear colleagues (apologies for cross-posting),
We are very happy to announce two open positions in Technology and Social Change at Linköping University, Sweden: one Assistant Professor (tenure track) and one PhD candidate (4 years fully funded).
Both positions are linked to the establishment of a new research area: Nuclear Futures, focusing on cultural, environmental, sociotechnical, and political issues related to nuclear power, nuclear weapons, and nuclear waste, and we foresee the additional recruitment of a postdoctoral scholar to the Nuclear Futures research area during 2026. Relevant educational backgrounds for the position include, among others, human geography, environmental humanities, science and technology studies, ethnology, anthropology, history of ideas, urban and regional planning, futures studies, or related fields.
The successful applicants will have considerable freedom to shape the research area, but possible research directions include humanities and social science perspectives on the establishment of new uranium mining, emerging technologies in nuclear power, deep time horizons in relation to long-lived radioactive waste, and civil society engagement in nuclear issues.
Application deadline: Monday 1 Dec 2025

Hej alla,
Skickar här en uppdaterad CFP för forskarnätverket SWESP:S fjärde internationella workshop, vilken äger rum i Göteborg den 21-22 maj 2026 under rubriken "Decentring Europe: Nordic-Iberian Histories in Transregional Perspective”.

Dear all,
The University of Tübingen (UT), the University of Vienna (UV), the University of Gothenburg (UG), and the American Historical Association (AHA) are pleased to announce the sixth International Seminar in Historical Refugee Studies, which will be held at the University of Vienna, September 28 - October 1, 2026. The deadline for applications is December 20, 2025. To apply, see attached Call for Papers or visit the Seminar website https://rhs.hypotheses.org.
The purpose of this seminar is to promote the historical study of refugees, who are too often regarded as a phenomenon of recent times. By viewing the problem of refugees from a historical perspective, the seminar seeks to complicate and contextualize our understanding of peoples who have fled political or religious conflicts, persecution, and violence. By bringing together 14 advanced PhD students and early postdocs from different parts of the world whose individual research projects examine refugees in different times and places, we intend to give a sense of purpose to this emerging field of study and demonstrate the value of viewing the plight of refugees from a historical perspective.
We invite contributions from recent PhDs, as well as young scholars in the final stages of their dissertations. In addition to historians, we also encourage applications from researchers working in fields such as sociology, political science, anthropology, ethnic and area studies that engage with historical dimensions. Possible contributions include:
* Studies of refugee movements and exile diasporas in various periods and places;
* Studies of the ethnic, gendered, racial, religious, and other characteristics of refugee groups and how they impact on reception policies and processes;
* Studies of reception and aid policies, and on the repercussions of refugees on host states and societies;
* Studies of the changing inter-state framework of refugee movements, such as international or inter-imperial cooperation, the role of international governmental or non-governmental actors, humanitarian organizations, etc.;
* Studies of the infrastructures of exile (camps, networks, economies, regulations)
* Studies of the conceptual history of refugees and exile (legal history, administrative practice, cultural history, etc.)
For more information, see attached Call for Papers or visit https://rhs.hypotheses.org.
Please feel free to circulate this call to anyone who might be interested.
All best,
Sari

Starting a workout routine can be exciting, but it can also feel overwhelming for beginners. From choosing the right exercises to staying motivated, there’s a lot to consider. Here’s a comprehensive guide to help you get started and build a successful fitness habit.
https://physicalfitness360s.blogspot.com/
1. Set Clear and Achievable Goals
Before you start exercising, define your goals. Are you aiming to lose weight, gain strength, or improve overall health? Having clear goals helps you stay focused and motivated.
Tips:
Make goals specific and measurable.
Break long-term goals into weekly or monthly milestones.
Celebrate small achievements to stay motivated.
2. Start Slow and Progress Gradually
Many beginners make the mistake of pushing too hard in the beginning. This can lead to injuries or burnout.
Tips:
Start with 2–4 workouts per week.
Focus on proper form rather than heavy weights or intense sessions.
Gradually increase intensity, duration, or weight over time.
3. Learn Proper Form
Proper technique is crucial to prevent injuries and ensure effective workouts.
Tips:
Watch tutorials or ask a trainer for guidance.
Use mirrors to check your posture.
Focus on quality of movement, not just quantity.
4. Include Different Types of Exercises
A balanced workout routine should include:
Cardio: Running, cycling, or brisk walking for heart health.
Strength Training: Bodyweight exercises, resistance bands, or weights for building muscle.
Flexibility: Stretching or yoga to improve mobility and prevent injuries.
5. Warm-Up and Cool-Down
Skipping warm-ups and cool-downs can increase injury risk and delay recovery.
Tips:
Warm-up: 5–10 minutes of light cardio or dynamic stretches.
Cool-down: 5–10 minutes of stretching or slow walking.
6. Focus on Nutrition
Exercise alone isn’t enough to see results. A balanced diet is essential.
Tips:
Eat protein, healthy fats, and complex carbs.
Stay hydrated.
Avoid excessive processed foods and sugary drinks.
7. Track Your Progress
Tracking your workouts helps you stay accountable and see improvements.
Tips:
Keep a workout journal or use an app.
Note sets, reps, weights, and duration.
Take progress photos or measurements.
8. Rest and Recovery
Your body needs time to repair and grow stronger. Overtraining can be counterproductive.
Tips:
Include rest days in your routine.
Get 7–8 hours of sleep per night.
Listen to your body and adjust intensity if needed.
9. Stay Consistent
Consistency is the key to long-term success. Results take time, so be patient and stick to your routine.
Tips:
Create a schedule that fits your lifestyle.
Focus on building habits, not quick fixes.
Avoid comparing yourself to others.
10. Make It Fun
Enjoying your workouts makes it easier to stick with them.
Tips:
Try new classes or workouts.
Listen to music or podcasts while exercising.
Workout with friends or join online fitness communities.
Conclusion
Starting a fitness journey as a beginner can be challenging, but with the right approach, it becomes manageable and rewarding. Focus on clear goals, proper form, balanced workouts, and consistency. Over time, you’ll notice improvements in strength, stamina, and overall health.
Hello everyone,
I’ve been researching how digital casual games and mini-games influence local culture, especially in Southeast Asia. Many of these games spread rapidly through informal online communities, APK sharing platforms, and small local developer ecosystems.
My question for the group:
Has anyone come across research papers or historical documentation about how *local game modes and card/domino styles* evolve when they move into digital environments? I am interested in how culture, rules, and design adapt across regions.
Any directions, journals, or archives would be appreciated. Thank you!
Regards,
Eliza
