“Late dividends of the British Empire”: Language ideologies and the native/non-native question in online newspaper comments
Authors: Sewell Andrew 
Published: June 2019

AbstractAs the use of English as a lingua franca increases in a range of contexts, one question that has received recent media attention is that of whether native or non-native speakers are more effective communicators in these contexts. The native/non-native question resists a straightforward answer, but taking account of the views of people in the business world is a necessary step towards understanding the underlying issues. This article investigates the nature and origin of these views by analysing online newspaper comments written in response to a column in theFinancial Times. It first identifies several topics related to the native/non-native question, including perceived differences between and within the two categories. It then discusses these topics from a language-ideological perspective, aiming to identify the patterns of beliefs and assumptions that inform the comments. Although this perspective involves a critical evaluation of the binary “native/non-native” opposition, the article identifies several important effects of the native speaker concept, ranging from outright discrimination to feelings of frustration and inhibition. It portrays the comments as both reflecting and questioning the ideological premises of the native speaker concept, and it considers the implications of the approach for ELF research and for the wider study of international communication.

Abstract
Classical galactosemia is an autosomal recessive inborn error of metabolism caused by biallelic pathogenic variants in the GALT gene. With the benefit of early diagnosis by newborn screening, the acute presentation of galactosemia can be prevented. In this study, we describe the clinical phenotypes, time of diagnosis and GALT genotypes of 76 galactosemia patients from Turkey, where the disease is not yet included in the newborn screening program. The median age at first symptom was 10 days (range 5–20), while the median age at diagnosis was 30 days (range 17–53). Nearly half of the patients (36 patients, 47.4%) were diagnosed later than age 1 month. Fifty-eight individuals were found to have 18 different pathogenic variants in their 116 mutant alleles. In our sample, Q188R variant has the highest frequency with 53%, the other half of the allele frequency of the patients showed 17 different genotypes. Despite presenting with typical clinical manifestations, classical galactosemia patients are diagnosed late in Turkey. Due to the geographical location of our country, different pathogenic GALT variants may be seen in Turkish patients. In the present study, a clear genotype-phenotype correlation could not be established in patients.
Radical Immanence of Thought and the Genesis of Consciousness: Salomon Maïmon
Authors: Vermeiren Florian 
Published: June 2019

Abstract
Salomon Maïmon argues that the formal determination of experience in Kant’s first Kritik insufficiently answers the question ‘quid juris?’. As an alternative to Kant’s theory, he develops a genetic transcendentalism in which experience is completely determined a priori. Discussing this genetic approach, I focus on how the spatiotemporal determinations of conscious experience are traced back to pure ideal relations. Relying on Leibniz and his theory of space and time, I explain how the extensive magnitudes of consciousness are founded in intensive magnitudes of what Maïmon calls ‘pure thought’. As the latter is the transcendental ground for both sensibility and the understanding, Maïmon’s theory contains a radical form of immanence, much like the philosophy of Spinoza and Gilles Deleuze.
Cracking Antiochus’ Riddle: Caracalla and Apollonius King of Tyre
Authors: Mastrocinque Attilio 
Published: June 2019

SummaryThe treatment of the consonant ‘T’ in the names Tharsus and Thartarus and some temporal clauses shows that theHistoria Apollonii regis Tyriwas written by a Phoenician native speaker. Comparisons with both coins and laws issued under Caracalla suggest that this work has been written at Tarsus under this emperor. The author’s major aim was that of maintaining that both the Tyche of the city (Tharsia) and its new founder (Caracalla) were Tyrians. He wanted to argue against the contemporary ambition of his fellow citizens to be Greek.
Nuove prove per la datazione di Vegezio sotto Teodosio II e la sua collocazione nell’impero romano d’Oriente
Authors: Colombo Maurizio 
Published: June 2019

RiassuntoNell’ambito degli studi su Vegezio la datazione dell’Epitoma rei militarise l’identificazione dell’anonimo imperatore sono questioni lungamente dibattute e approdate a varie soluzioni; Teodosio I ora costituisce la dottrina vulgata. Nessuno ha mai messo in dubbio la pertinenza di Vegezio all’impero romano d’Occidente. Il presente articolo parte dai risultati innovativi di un precedente studio, dove si dimostra che Vegezio scrisse l’Epitomanell’impero romano d’Oriente intorno al 435 e la dedicò a Teodosio II. Qui l’appartenenza di Vegezio all’impero romano d’Oriente e l’identificazione del destinatario con Teodosio II vengono ulteriormente corroborate, ma si propone una datazione leggermente più alta, più precisamente verso il 425.
Idioms and the syntax/semantics interface of descriptive content vs. reference
Authors: Gehrke Berit , McNally Louise 
Published: June 2019

AbstractThe syntactic literature on idioms contains some proposals that are surprising from a compositional perspective. For example, there are proposals that, in the case of verb-object idioms, the verb combines directly with the noun inside its DP complement, and the determiner is introduced higher up in the syntactic structure, or is late-adjoined. This seems to violate compositionality insofar as it is generally assumed that the semantic role of the determiner is to convert a noun to the appropriate semantic type to serve as the argument to the function denoted by the verb. In this paper, we establish a connection between this line of analysis and lines of work in semantics that have developed outside of the domain of idioms, particularly work on incorporation and work that combines formal and distributional semantic modelling. This semantic work separates the composition of descriptive content from that of discourse referent introducing material; our proposal shows that this separation offers a particularly promising way to handle the compositional difficulties posed by idioms, including certain patterns of variation in intervening determiners and modifiers.
A third-order weak approximation of multidimensional Itô stochastic differential equations
Authors: Naito Riu , Yamada Toshihiro 
Published: June 2019

Abstract
This paper proposes a new third-order discretization algorithm for multidimensional Itô stochastic differential equations driven by Brownian motions.
The scheme is constructed by the Euler–Maruyama scheme with a stochastic weight given by polynomials of Brownian motions, which is simply implemented by a Monte Carlo method.
The method of Watanabe distributions on Wiener space is effectively applied in the computation of the polynomial weight of Brownian motions.
Numerical examples are shown to confirm the accuracy of the scheme.
miR-107 enhances the sensitivity of breast cancer cells to paclitaxel
Authors: Ma Changpo , Shi Xuejun , Guo Wenchao , Niu Jianxin , Wang Guangshun 
Published: June 2019

Abstract
Breast cancer remains the most commonly diagnosed cancer in Chinese women. Paclitaxel (PTX) is a chemotherapy medication used to treat breast cancer patients. However, a side effect of paclitaxel is the severe drug resistance. Previous studies demonstrated that dysregulation of microRNAs could regulate sensitivity to paclitaxel in breast cancer. Here, the present study aimed to lucubrate the underlying mechanisms of miR-107 in regulating the sensitivity of breast cancer cells to PTX. The results demonstrated that miR-107 was down-regulated in breast cancer tumor tissues, while TPD52 was significantly up-regulated compared with the non-tumor adjacent tissues. After confirming that TPD52 may be a major target of miR-107 via a dual-luciferase reporter assay, the western blot and RT-qPCR assays further demonstrated that miR-107 may reduce the expression level of TPD52 as well. In addition, miR-107 may prominently enhance PTX induced reduction of cell viability and the promotion of cell apoptosis in breast cancer, and the variation could be reversed by co-transfected with pcDNA3.1-TPD52. Finally, miR-107 could further reduce the decreased expression of TPD52, Wnt1, β-catenin and cyclin D1 that was induced by PTX in both mRNA and protein levels, which were rescued by pcDNA3.1-TPD52 indicating that miR-107 regulated breast cancer cell sensitivity to PTX may be targeting TPD52 through Wnt/β-catenin signaling pathway.

ZusammenfassungAusgehend von der Annahme, dass unser Zugang zur Welt auch und ganz wesentlich über Bilder vermittelt wird, fragt der vorliegende Beitrag, auf welche Weise mediale Visualisierungen von Kriminalität durch Kriminalitäts- und Sicherheitsdiskurse geprägt sind bzw. diese prägen. Er geht dieser Frage am Beispiel des Wohnungseinbruchsdiebstahls nach und greift dabei auf die dokumentarische Bildanalyse nachBohnsackzurück, die einen sozialwissenschaftlichen Zugriff auf die spezifischen, sich visuell vermittelnden Sinnstrukturen eröffnet. Vorgeführt wird die exemplarische Analyse eines prominenten Titelbildes des Nachrichtenmagazins »Der Spiegel« zum Thema, deren Befunde im zweiten Schritt mit den kriminologischen Erkenntnissen zum Phänomen kontrastiert werden. Im Ergebnis zeigt sich, dass ein methodischer Ansatz, der Bilder als Analysegegenstand in ihrer Eigenlogik ernst nimmt, auch in der kriminologischen Forschung Potenzial entfalten kann.

Published: June 2019

Abstract
This article presents the quality, safety and assessment system as the important tools to supervise the health care organization. Quality is the sum of the properties and characteristics of a product, process or service that is appropriate to meet the complex requirements. In the case of health care is difficult to valuate quality, the universal indicators become useful tool. The development of quality indicators requires collecting of data and their proper processing. The high quality of medical services requires continuous improvement and adaptation to patients’ needs. The quality indicators, for example, refer directly to the effects of therapy and are used to measure the success or failure of the applied therapeutic methods. Measuring the results of activities indicates only the level of quality of the services provided. The data helps to analyze information and improve the quality and safety of health care services.

Setting up a “good” experimentation: the case of vine varieties testing in Languedoc
Authors: Tabouret Sophie 
Published: June 2019

Abstract
The vine breeding of varieties resistant to two major pathogens (mildew and powdery mildew) underpins the promise of a pesticide-free viticulture. Numerous questions appear while professionals try to plant these varietal innovations in their vineyard: what is a good grape variety? Can we produce good wines with these ‘new’ varieties that fit our expectations for taste, quality, their capacity to adapt to our terroirs, etc.? Going faster is a challenge for growers who want to test new production methods associated with new markets. In that context, testing these varieties is a necessity. This paper focuses on one of these specific tests conducted in the Languedoc Wine Region (France). Technicians, scientists and economic players in this sector all together organise the testing in order to distribute the first experimental plants through regional winegrowers. To analyse what qualifies a good experimentation, I follow how actors formulate their concerns and what they take into account in such situations. Using a theoretical framework derived from the Science and Technology Studies (STS), I describe how relations between professionals and objects are transformed as they face uncertainties in their efforts to achieve the promise of a more sustainable viticulture.
From imagination to political reality? The Grand Duchy of Lithuania as a successor of Rome in the early modern historiography (15th–18th centuries)
Authors: Orzeł Joanna 
Published: June 2019

Abstract
At the beginning of the Renaissance Lithuanians understood that to join the civilization of Western Europe, it was necessary to have an appropriate (it means: very long) tradition. Like other countries, they had to create their own myth of origin. The most prestigious tradition was Greek-Roman antiquity, so the country’s origin story was invented, claiming its people descended directly from Rome. According to subsequent chronicles, the founder of the new state was Palemon (Publius Libon, initially Vilia).
Using the theory of cultural memory of Jan and Aleida Assmann, the article presents how and why the Lithuanian myth of origin was transformed from 15th to the end of the 18th century. Particular attention was paid to the current needs of the state and the powerful noble families of the Grand Duchy of Lithuania, which also found their origins in the state myth.
During the early modern period, the changes in the story were made (including the date of Palemon’s arrival in the Lithuanian lands). Nonetheless, the myth was not questioned for a long time. Even once it had already been established that it was no more than a fairy tale, the story was revived again, performing other functions in the 19th century.
Light Emitting Diodes (LED) for Aqueous Light Bleaching of Paper
Authors: Kirschner Benjamin , Brückle Irene , Henniges Ute 
Published: June 2019

AbstractHigh performance daylight LED lamps are compared with HID lamps for light bleaching of paper. The LED can be placed in closer proximity to the object than the HID lamps, causing a significantly increased, uniform light exposure. Two commercial LED systems with 4000 K and 6500 K colour temperature were installed in a convertible test device with a polypropylene tray in default exposure distance of 10 cm and 20 cm. A HID lamp in 60 cm and 120 cm distance served as a reference. Samples of two naturally aged rag papers were bleached with both LED systems and with the HID while immersed in water. All three light sources increased brightness (CIELAB L*), though the LEDs with 4000 K colour temperature were most effective. They had no negative effect on the molar mass and the cellulose carbonyl group content while LEDs with 6500 K colour temperature caused molar mass decrease and carbonyl group increase. LEDs of a 4000 K or similar colour temperature are a promising option for improved light bleaching of paper, reducing the treatment and aqueous exposure time and eliminating UV radiation.
Can neuromodulation techniques optimally exploit cerebello-thalamo-cortical circuit properties to enhance motor learning post-stroke?
Authors: Israely Sharon , Leisman Gerry 
Published: June 2019

Abstract
Individuals post-stroke sustain motor deficits years after the stroke. Despite recent advancements in the applications of non-invasive brain stimulation techniques and Deep Brain Stimulation in humans, there is a lack of evidence supporting their use for rehabilitation after brain lesions. Non-invasive brain stimulation is already in use for treating motor deficits in individuals with Parkinson’s disease and post-stroke. Deep Brain Stimulation has become an established treatment for individuals with movement disorders, such as Parkinson’s disease, essential tremor, epilepsy, cerebral palsy and dystonia. It has also been utilized for the treatment of Tourette’s syndrome, Alzheimer’s disease and neuropsychiatric conditions such as obsessive-compulsive disorder, major depression and anorexia nervosa. There exists growing scientific knowledge from animal studies supporting the use of Deep Brain Stimulation to enhance motor recovery after brain damage. Nevertheless, these results are currently not applicable to humans. This review details the current literature supporting the use of these techniques to enhance motor recovery, both from human and animal studies, aiming to encourage development in this domain.
Effect of Gurney Flaps on the Aerodynamic Characteristics of NACA 0010 Cascades
Authors: Nilavarasan T. , Joshi Ganapati. N. , Chandel Sunil 
Published: June 2019

Abstract
Two dimensional computations were conducted to investigate the performance of NACA 0010 cascades with Gurney Flaps. The cascades with three different stagger angles (βB) viz. 45°, 90° and 135° were studied for the aerodynamic performance characteristics of the blades with and without Gurney Flaps and the results were compared. The Gurney Flap’s length is 2 % of the chord length and has a 45° inclination with respect to the chord line. A significant lift augmentation is observed in all the three blade angle configurations due to the Gurney Flap. In terms of aerodynamic efficiency, it was observed that the presence of Gurney Flap was detrimental when βB = 45°, while the same was highly advantageous when βB = 135°. The streamline visualizations indicated the existence of counter rotating vortex pairs behind the Gurney Flap and that their rate of decay with respect to the Angle of attack was affected by the stagger angle at which the blades were arranged.
Der Tempelweihspruch Salomos (I Reg 8,12–13/LXX III Bas 8,53): Ein neuer Vorschlag

Published: June 2019

Zusammenfassung
Der Tempelweihspruch (I Reg 8,12–13) ist in einer längeren Version in der LXX (III Bas 8,53) überliefert. Wie verhalten sich die beiden Fassungen zueinander? Dieser Artikel argumentiert dafür, dass sowohl der MT als auch die LXX auf eine gemeinsame fehlerhafte Quelle zurückgehen, die der Herausgeber des MT dahingehend korrigierte, dass er Sätze des ursprünglichen Spruches wegließ, während der Übersetzer der LXX den Spruch möglichst wörtlich zu übersetzen versuchte. Dies wirft auch ein Licht auf die rätselhafte Aussage über die Sonne, die nach dieser Hypothese wie folgt gelautet haben dürfte: שֶׁמֶשׁ הוֹדִיעַ לָשֶׁבֶת בַשָּׁמַיִם.
Rheological Deformation Behavior of Soft Rocks under Combination of Compressive Pressure and Water-Softening Effects

Published: June 2019

Abstract
The purpose of this article is to investigate the rheological deformation behavior of soft rocks subject to the combination of externally applied compressive pressure and water-softening effects. To achieve this goal, a series of mechanical tests on soft rocks were performed by using a customized meso-mechanical triaxial test system consisting of a bidirectional servo confining pressure loading subsystem and a water pressure chamber. The system has the capability of simulating the actual compressive stress and water environment of soft rocks in engineering practice. The experimental results show that, under compressive stresses, water-softening effects could significantly increase the deformation rate of the soft rocks, ultimately lead to a larger deformation of the rocks. To further understand the combination of compressive pressure and water-softening effects on the deformation behavior of the soft rocks, an elastoplastic damage model was developed. It shows that the model can reproduce the experimentally observed deformation behavior of soft rocks. In addition, it reveals that, with the rock–water interaction, the deformation process of the compressed soft rocks can be described as the change from the attenuation state to the steady state of rheological deformation.
