Contradictory Behavior During Genocides1

In all large-scale genocides, rescuing occurs alongside killing. Some members of the aggressors' ethnic group even risk their own lives to save members of the targeted group. Killing and rescuing occur closely together, and even the same persons may engage in both behaviors - killing on one occasion and rescuing on another. This article examines such cases - where the same individuals kill and rescue - and discusses their relevance to the explanation of genocide. Both collectivistic and individualistic theories of killing and rescuing - which explain these behaviors with the properties of groups or persons - are inadequate in accounting for those who do both. Using Donald Black's (1995, 2000) strategy of pure sociology and my theory of genocide (Campbell, 2009), I offer an explanation of contradictory behavior by individuals during genocide. The behaviors themselves occur in different structures - killing where there is social distance and rescuing where there is social closeness. Individuals who exhibit contradictory behavior thus kill those who are distant and save those who are close. One feature of this analysis is its demonstration of the explanatory power of pure sociology, which is uniquely capable of explaining extreme variations in individual behavior.
Resource and cost effective conversion of biomass to hydrocarbontm oil

The ambition for the Project is to pave-the-way for commercialization and implementation of Steeper Energy Aps (SEA) innovative hydrothermal liquefaction technology platform: HydrofactionTM.
The proprietary technology is a highly efficient method to produce renewable fuel oil with similarities to petroleum fuel oils. Timely commercialization will be achieved by bringing Hydrofaction to market via testing, scale-up and demonstration.
Based on a proven new chemical process, using renewable low-cost (non-food) feedstocks, Hydrofaction Oil can be burned in CHP applications, used a substitute for low-sulphur marine diesel or may be upgraded to diesel or jet via traditional petroleum refineries. 
The Project will advance the design of the Hydrofaction technology platform and mature the Company’s preparedness to attract new investment while moving the TRL level from 6 to 8: a critical step toward the commercialization of Hydrofaction. The Project objectives include adjusting the product offering to meet the needs of technology users (licensees) and their customers (oil buyers) by lowering the risks associated with the performance of future commercial plants as well as improving or modifying the quality of Hydrofaction Oil. 
Within the design of the Project, Hydrofaction Oil will be produced from feedstocks provided by potential commercial partners as well as comprehensive testing of that oil at certified laboratories. Future licensees expect that the scaled demonstration plant, approximately 100 times larger than SEA’s current Pilot facility or 5.000 fuel tonne export capacity, will be representative in both physical design and operations to subsequent full-scale commercial plants to be based on 50.000 fuel tonne export modules transforming large amounts of biomass residuals to Hydrofaction Oil for oil refineries to upgrade to renewable diesel.
Key milestones include advancing existing business partner/licensee/project relationships to signed LOIs and MOUs.
Improving Social and Communication Skills of Adult Arabs with ASD through the Use of Social Media Technologies

People with Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) find it hard to communicate and interact with other people. Although technology has been involved in sup-porting people with ASD in developed countries, research on such technologies has been mainly related to Western culture. Arab adults with ASD require sup-port for improving their social skills. However, cultural differences could limit the usability of existing technologies. The proposed study aims to investigate the use of social networks for supporting Arab adults with High-Functioning Autism or Asperger syndrome in order to improve their abilities in social situations such as family relations and friendships, considering the influence of culture and tradition views on the usability and sociability of social media technologies.
<i>SIR2011</i>: a new package for crystal structure determination and refinement

SIR2011 , the successor of SIR2004 , is the latest program of the SIR suite. It can solve ab initio crystal structures of small- and medium-size molecules, as well as protein structures, using X-ray or electron diffraction data. With respect to the predecessor the program has several new abilities: e.g. a new phasing method (VLD) has been implemented, it is able to exploit prior knowledge of the molecular geometry via simulated annealing techniques, it can use molecular replacement methods for solving proteins, it includes new tools like free lunch and new approaches for electron diffraction data, and it visualizes three-dimensional electron density maps. The graphical interface has been further improved and allows the straightforward use of the program even in difficult cases.

Protecting Water Resources from Large-Scale Animal Production

Animal production is accompanied by a need to dispose of manure and other waste products. With large concentrations of animals at individual facilities, the possibility exists that nutrients may be applied to nearby lands leading to water pollution. Large concentrated animal feeding operations need a permit under the Clean Water Act, but the failure to minimize discharges of pollutants suggests that alternative approaches to safeguard water quality are needed. A lawsuit from Oklahoma discloses poultry integrators being sued for pollution damages under the federal Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation, and Liability Act (CERCLA) and nuisance law. Citizens may resort to litigation to stop agricultural pollution.

The effects of gradients of nerve growth factor immobilized PCLA scaffolds on neurite outgrowth in vitro and peripheral nerve regeneration in rats

Introducing concentration gradients of nerve growth factor (NGF) into conduits for repairing of peripheral nerve injury is crucial for nerve regeneration and guidance. Herein, combining differential adsorption of NGF/silk fibroin (SF) coating, the gradient of NGF-immobilized membranes (G-Ms) and nanofibrous nerve conduits (G-nNCs) were successfully fabricated. The efficacy of NGF gradients was confirmed by a quantitative comparison of dorsal root ganglia (DRG) neurite outgrowth on the G-Ms or uniform NGF-immobilized membranes (U-Ms). Significantly, the neurite turning ratio was 0.48 ± 0.11 for G-M group, but it was close to zero for U-M group. The neurite length of DRGs in the middle of the G-Ms was significantly longer than that of U-M group, even though the average NGF concentration was approximated. Furthermore, 12 weeks after implantation in rats with a 14 mm gap of sciatic nerve injury, G-nNCs achieved satisfying outcomes of nerve regeneration associated with morphological and functional improvements, which was superior to that of the uniform NGF-immobilized nNCs (U-nNCs). Sciatic function index (SFI), compound muscle action potentials (CMAPs), total number of myelinated nerve fibers, thickness of myelin sheath were similar for the G-nNCs and autografts, with the G-nNCs having a higher density of axons than the autografts. Our results demonstrated the significant role of introducing NGF gradients into scaffolds in promoting nerve regeneration.
Knowledge management platform for clinical use of brain data

The connectome is a map of all neural connections in the brain that can provide information about the brain’s (re)wiring in neurological diseases, injuries, or drugs responses. The use of connectomes in clinical practice has enormous potential to improve treatment efficacy, enhance patient stratification, disease characterization, and ultimately diagnosis. However, the means to clinically utilize connectomes are limited. Therefore neurologists still rely on subjective analysis of brain scans. Although the use of big data tools in neuro-diagnostics is growing, no commercial application for clinical practice is available yet. 

Biomax developed the first commercial solution to translate big connectome data into clinically relevant information: NeuroXM. In combination with patients’ clinical data this can be valorized to improve neuro-diagnosis. NeuroXM has successfully undergone pilot studies at two major institutes. The proprietary NeuroXM platform includes all features and security levels that are required in the clinic. Biomax is a strong bioinformatic SME with 20 years’ experience, including >25 European grants, 5 successful bioinformatic products, and a pioneering reputation.

NeuroXM targets a very large and diverse neurology market with multiple clinical applications, e.g. diagnosis of dementia using brain imaging, detecting brain wiring “disconnections” in schizophrenia, and establishing treatment efficacy (longitudinal assessments of the connectome). This SME Phase 1 project will assess the feasibility of these different applications, which will help Biomax to establish a Go/No-go for further clinical validation for the specific clinical applications. With a strong first mover advantage and freedom to operate, NeuroXM has the potential to become the gold standard for working with connectome data. Commercialization of NeuroXM will provide Biomax a cumulative revenue of €47,4 million (2025) and further company growth.

SYSTEMS AND METHODS OF DETERMINING A QUALITY AND/OR DEPTH OF DIESEL EXHAUST FLUID

A system for determining a quality and/or depth of a fluid in a tank. The system includes a controller, one or more transducers, and a temperature sensor. A fixed distance transducer transmits a sound wave toward a fixed surface. A depth transducer transmits a sound wave which reflects off a surface of the fluid. The temperature sensor senses a temperature of the fluid in the tank and provides an indication of the temperature to the controller. The controller measures the elapsed time for the sound waves to travel between the fixed distance transducer and a fixed surface and the elapsed time for the sound waves to travel between the depth transducer and the surface of the fluid held within the container. Using the elapsed times and the temperature of the fluid, the controller is able to determine a quality and the depth of the fluid.
Soil and water conservation practices among the independent's oil palm smallholders at the Saratok's cooperative

Knowledge on implementation of soil and water conservation practices (SWCP) are
importance to be adopted by oil palm growers in order to maintain the quality of natural
resources and also committed with the environmental conservation. As one ofthe criteria in
the Malaysian Palm Oil Board Good Agricultural Practices (MPOB-GAP), it must be
adopted in order to qualify the oil palm growers, especially smallholders to be certified with
the quality certifications as well as to increase FFB yields and incomes. The Malaysian
government through relevant agency has made an effort to group the independent oil palm
smallholders through cooperative under the Sustainabletalm Oil Clusters (SPOC) to
facilitate the extension activities and certification programs. This study was carried out in
Saratok District under Betong Division involving the mem ers of Saratok's Sustainable Oil
Palm Growers Cooperative (KPSMDS). The objective of this study is to evaluate the
knowledge and current adoption of SWCP in the smallholder farms. In this study,
conservation practices implemented by oil palm smallholders were evaluated based on the
checklist in the Roundtable on Sustainable Palm Oil (RSPO) principle number four, criteria
4.2, 4.3 and 4.4. Research methods that have been used in this study are in-situ observation
and face to face interview session with KP DSMS participants. The results of the study
indicated that the implementations of soil and water conservation practices were still low
implemented by the oil palm smallholders. The knowledge regarding the good agricultural
practices is the main factor that influences the status of implementation of both soil and
water conservation practices. Recommendations based on the research affirm that it is
necessary to take into account the education program for the cooperative's members in order
10 ensure that their awareness of the practices is high and adoption of sWCP were
implemented for the independent's smallholders benefit.
Discussion on the Index System of Detailed Plan for Green Belt around Metropolis A Case Study of the Planning for the Demonstration Base of the Development and Management of Eco-Projects in Baoshan District, Shanghai

The development of greenbelt around metropolis should be responding to the urban development stage. A strengthened planning and design helps to fulfill the multiple functions of greenbelt, and to promote the development of greenbelt around metropolis in terms of quantity and quality. With the planning projects in Shanghai as example, the paper discussed the detailed plan of greenbelt around metropolis. It also proposed an index system of the detailed plan for greenbelt around metropolis based on the four planning dimensions, including environment and ecology, visual landscape, recreation and economy. It will help to guide the trend of greenbelt planning in a rational and standard way.
METHODS AND SYSTEMS FOR POSITIONING SUBSTRATES

A second substrate is positioned relative to a first substrate having phase-changeable bumps, such as solder bumps, between them, wherein the second substrate has a first face adjacent the first substrate, a second face remote from the first substrate, and at least one edge wall between the first and second faces. The phase-changeable bumps are liquefied (130) to establish an equilibrium position of the first and second substrates relative to one another. At least a portion of the second face is pushed away from the equilibrium position towards the first substrate, to a new position, without applying external force to the first face other than spring forces of the phase-changeable bumps that are liquefied, and without applying external force to any edge wall. Thus, only spring forces of the phase-changeable bumps that are liquefied oppose the pushing. The phase-changeable bumps that are liquefied then are solidified, to maintain the new position.
Effects of electron beam and ultraviolet-C irradiation on quality and microbial populations of leafy vegetables during storage

Effects of ultraviolet-C (UV-C) and electron beam irradiation on the quality and microbial populations of leafy vegetables were compared as a microbial decontamination method. Tatsoi and red chard leaves were treated with UV-C at a dose of 5 kJ/m2 or by electron beam irradiation at doses of 0.5, 1, and 3 kGy. After UV-C or electron beam irradiation treatment, the samples were stored at 4 ± 1°C for 11 days. Populations of total aerobic bacteria in leafy vegetables decreased by 0.8–1.1 log CFU/g after treatment with UV-C irradiation, and those of yeast and molds decreased by 1.0–1.8 log CFU/g. On the contrary, electron beam irradiation at 0.5 or 1 kGy reduced the microbial populations by 2.0–2.5 log CFU/g. Electron beam irradiation at 3 kGy eliminated the microorganisms in the samples. These results suggest that electron beam irradiation at low dose below 3 kGy can be more effective than UV-C treatment for the inactivation of microorganisms in Tatsoi and red chard leaves.
Reservoir-forming analysis of tight gas in Weibei Sag,Bohai Bay Basin

There were good geological conditions for tight gas reservoirs in the northern subsag of the Weibei Sag,forming the combination of self-generation,self-storage and self-cover in the 2nd member of the Kongdian Formation. Tight gas reservoirs generated in the area deeper than 3 500 m. The natural gas migration patterns under different porosity conditions were analyzed,and the influencing factors for gas saturation were studied with experiments. The relationship between permeability and final gas saturation was defined,and the coefficient was0. 904. Experimental results showed that gas charged early and abnormal high pressure existed during gas accumulation stage. The homogenization temperature of fluid inclusions showed that tight gas reservoirs experienced 2charging periods. The 1st period was the early Shahejie period( 52-50. 5 Ma) and the 2nd one was before the Shahejie structural movement( 43. 5-36Ma),among which the 2nd period played a more important role. The Shahejie structural movement caused pressure reducing and tight gas reservoirs were destroyed. The deposition of Neogene made reservoirs further compact,which was favorable for tight gas reservoir preservation in the Kongdian Formation. The tight gas reservoirs of the Kongdian Formation in the Weibei Sag were residual gas reservoirs,and still had good exploration prospects.
TELECOMMUNICATIONS SERVICE CREATION: TOWARDS EXTENSIONS FOR ENTERPRISE ARCHITECTURE MODELING LANGUAGES

From the 90's, the telecommunications service creation industry has undergone radical change. Services have shifted from being based on a switching environment to being mainly based on software. To remain competitive in these new dynamic conditions of an open market, telecommunications organizations need to produce high quality services at low prices within short periods of time. Concerning Service Providers, they need an overall representation of service creation taking in all business, management, and technical activities. To reduce their concept-to-market time for new services, they also need tools specialized for their tasks and domain. In this position paper, we argue that a telecommunications profile for an Enterprise Architecture modeling language answers these needs. We also design a telecommunications profile for ArchiMate that offers conformity to standards through the reuse of a recognized Enterprise Architecture modeling language. Moreover, this profile provides easier adoption by Service Providers due to inclusion of domain specific concepts. The profiling mechanism we propose may be used for defining language extensions specific to other industries as well.
DIVERSITY OF PLANT COMMUNITIES IN SECONDARY SUCCESSION OF IMPERATA GRASSLANDS OF EAST KALIMANTAN, INDONESIA

Regeneration of Imperata grassland areas is becoming increasingly important, both to create new secondary forest and to recover the original biodiversity. We studied the diversity of plant communities in secondary succession of Imperata grasslands using 45 subplots of 9 linear transects (10 m x 100 m). Data was collected and all stems over 10 cm dbh were identified  , the Importance Values Index (IVI) for all trees were calculated, saplings and seedlings were counted  and analysed, and soil samples were taken and analysed. Results showed that  after more than 10 years of regeneration, 65 families were encountered consisting of 164 species, which were dominated by Vernonia arborea Buch.-Ham, Vitex pinnata L., Macaranga gigantea (Reichb.f. & Zoll.) Muell.Arg., Symplocos crassipes C.B. Clarke, Artocarpus odoratissimus Miq., and Bridelia glauca Blume. The effects of regeneration, from Imperata grassland to secondary forest, on soil were the strongest in the A-horizon where an increase in carbon, N content, and pH were observed. Our result shows that Imperata grasslands appear to be permanent because of frequent fires and human interferences and so far few efforts have been made to promote sustainable rehabilitation. If protected from fire and other disturbances, such as shifting cultivation, Imperata grassland will grow and develop into secondary forest.
