Le fantôme et les autres
Authors: Broz Ludek 
Published: June 2018

Cet article traite de la capacité des fantômes à faire devenir autre ; des vivants et des morts dans un village sibérien ; de ceux qui adhèrent à l’existence des fantômes ; de textes qui ne réduisent pas les fantômes à une réalité ethnographique de second rang, ni ne disqualifient les anthropologues qui s’en préoccupent. L’auteur prend appui sur les situations de partage de nourriture avec des morts, et sur les conséquences que cela est censé avoir sur la vie des Altaïens, pour parler plus généralement du pouvoir « d’altérisation » que possèdent les fantômes comme entités. Cet effet se fait sentir aussi lorsque les Altaïens entrent en contact avec l’administration russe : le rapport qu’ils entretiennent avec leurs morts les rend très exotiques aux yeux des Russes élevés à l’école matérialiste. Mais c’est aussi ce genre d’effet transformationnel que les anthropologues eux-mêmes peuvent ressentir lorsqu’ils étudient les fantômes en tentant de les « prendre au sérieux ».
Le dévoyé et le damné
Authors: Caciola Nancy Mandeville 
Published: June 2018

Au Moyen Âge, en Italie, les représentants de l’Église considéraient les esprits venus posséder les vivants comme des démons ou des anges déchus, tandis que le peuple avait plutôt tendance à y voir des revenants. D’après une croyance préchrétienne, les personnes décédées de façon violente et prématurée pouvaient prendre possession du corps d’une personne vivante pour revivre une incarnation. Or, ces éléments de culture n’ont pas traversé le temps par inadvertance : ils ont été retenus parce qu’ils servaient les besoins des communautés qui en avaient l’usage. En l’occurrence, l’idée que les morts puissent posséder les vivants permettait d’opérer plusieurs types de guérison, au bénéfice de la victime, mais aussi du revenant et de la communauté tout entière.
La nuit de frayeur d’un homme courageux
Authors: Patsauq Markoosie 
Published: June 2018

Cette nouvelle de l’écrivain inuit Markoosie Patsauq est inspirée des récits d’apparition de fantôme tels qu’ils circulent dans les sociétés où la chasse joue un rôle central dans la vie quotidienne. Dans ces récits, les fantômes n’apparaissent jamais clairement : on ne fait que détecter une série d’indices qui permet d’inférer leur présence. Le chasseur commence par décrire un contexte de brouillage perceptif (nuit, pluie, etc.), relativement anxiogène, dans lequel toutes ses ressources cognitives sont orientées vers la détection d’agents animaux, gibier recherché ou prédateur redouté. La présence d’un fantôme est induite de l’échec du processus menant à la reconnaissance d’un animal précis à partir d’indices sensoriels et perceptifs fragmentaires.
Revenants affamés
Authors: Rousseau Julien 
Published: June 2018

L’artiste thaïlandais Anupong Chantorn travaille un thème issu d’une tradition ancienne : les revenants affamés (phi prêt). Décrits dans les textes bouddhiques, les phi prêt peuvent, contrairement aux autres esprits aniconiques de la religion populaire, être représentés. Ils se rencontrent traditionnellement sur les murs peints des temples et sur les manuscrits, pour illustrer la cosmologie bouddhique ou la description des enfers, mais aussi, depuis la seconde moitié du xxe siècle, dans des sculptures géantes qui apparaissent dans les temples.
Ligation of the CD44 Glycoform HCELL on Culture-Expanded Human Monocyte-Derived Dendritic Cells Programs Transendothelial Migration
Authors: Videira Paula A. , Silva Mariana , Martin Kyle C. , Sackstein Robert 
Published: June 2018

Abstract
The success of dendritic cell (DC)–based immunotherapeutics critically hinges on the capacity of the vascularly administered cells to enter tissues. Transendothelial migration (TEM) is dictated by an ordered cascade of receptor/ligand interactions. In this study, we examined the key molecular effectors of TEM of human monocyte-derived DCs (mo-DCs) generated by clinically relevant methods: CD14 selection (CD14-S) and plastic adherence selection (PA-S). Without chemokine input, CD14-S cells undergo greater TEM than PA-S cells over TNF-α–stimulated HUVECs. TEM of CD14-S mo-DCs is E-selectin/very late Ag-4 (VLA-4) dependent, and engagement of E-selectin ligands activates VLA-4 on CD14-S mo-DCs but not on PA-S mo-DCs. E-selectin binding glycoforms of P-selectin glycoprotein ligand-1 (PSGL-1) (i.e., cutaneous lymphocyte Ag [CLA]) and CD44 (i.e., hematopoietic cell E-selectin/L-selectin ligand [HCELL]) are both expressed on CD14-S mo-DCs, but only CLA is expressed on PA-S mo-DCs. To elucidate the effect of CD44 or PSGL-1 engagement, mo-DCs were pretreated with their ligands. Ligation of CD44 on CD14-S mo-DCs triggers VLA-4 activation and TEM, whereas PSGL-1 ligation does not. HCELL expression on CD14-S mo-DC can be enforced by cell surface exofucosylation, yielding increased TEM in vitro and enhanced extravasation into bone marrow in vivo. These findings highlight structural and functional pleiotropism of CD44 in priming TEM of mo-DCs and suggest that strategies to enforce HCELL expression may boost TEM of systemically administered CD14-S mo-DCs.

Published: June 2018

Context:Black women are dramatically underrepresented in the health care profession of athletic training. The research identifies impeding barriers such as racism, sexism, lack of support, and unpreparedness to the successful college completion of ethnically diverse students. However, there are black women who have successfully overcome those impeding barriers to become athletic trainers (ATs). Mentoring is one factor that has been identified as supportive to the retention of ethnically diverse college students.Objective:The purpose of this qualitative study was to identify impeding barriers and promoting factors affecting the retention and credentialing of black women ATs.Design:Qualitative.Setting:Education.Patients or Other Participants:Ten certified ATs who self-identify as black women and matriculated through athletic training programs over the last 4 decades.Main Outcome Measure(s):The perceived factors that impede or promote successful college retention and attainment of the Board of Certification credential of black women athletic training students.Results:There are barriers that impede and factors that promote the successful matriculation of black women athletic training students. Impeding barriers include a lack of support, sexism, and racism. Factors that promote include personal characteristics; experience with white culture; faculty, preceptor, and peer support; and the clinical education experience.Conclusions:Recognizing the factors that impede or promote the academic persistence of black women in athletic training programs allows athletic training educators and preceptors to improve the experiences of black women enrolled in those programs and potentially increase their participation and advancement in the athletic training profession.

Making Time in Stanley Kubrick’s Barry Lyndon
Authors: Pramaggiore Maria 
Published: June 2018

Considered by critics to be Stanley Kubrick's masterpiece, Barry Lyndon has suffered from scholarly and popular neglect. Maria Pramaggiore argues that one key reason that this film remains unappreciated, even by Kubrick aficionados, is that its transnational and intermedial contexts have not been fully explored. Taking a novel approach, she looks at the film from a transnational perspective -- as a foreign production shot in Ireland and an adaptation of a British novel by an American director about an Irish subject. Pramaggiore argues that, in Barry Lyndon, Kubrick develops his richest philosophical mediation on cinema's capacity to mediate the real and foregrounds film's relationship to other technologies of visuality, including painting, photography, and digital media.
By combining extensive research into the film's source novel, production and reception with systematic textual analysis and an engagement with several key issues in contemporary academic debate, this work promises not only to make a huge impact in the field of Kubrick studies, but also in 1970s filmmaking, cultural history and transnational film practice.
The evolution of mode-2 internal solitary waves modulated by background shear currents

Published: June 2018

Abstract. The evolution of mode-2 internal solitary waves (ISWs) modulated
by background shear currents was investigated numerically. The mode-2 ISW was
generated by the “lock-release” method, and the background shear current
was initialized after the mode-2 ISW became stable. Five sets of experiments
were conducted to assess the sensitivity of the modulation process to the
direction, polarity, magnitude, shear layer thickness and offset extent of
the background shear current. Three distinctly different shear-induced waves
were identified as a forward-propagating long wave, oscillating tail and
amplitude-modulated wave packet in the presence of a shear current. The
amplitudes of the forward-propagating long wave and the amplitude-modulated
wave packet are proportional to the magnitude of the shear but inversely
proportional to the thickness of the shear layer, as well as the energy loss
of the mode-2 ISW during modulation. The oscillating tail and
amplitude-modulated wave packet show symmetric variation when the background
shear current is offset upward or downward, while the forward-propagating
long wave was insensitive to it. For comparison, one control experiment was
configured according to the observations of Shroyer et al. (2010); in the
first 30 periods, ∼ 36 % of total energy was lost at an average
rate of 9 W m−1 in the presence of the shear current; it would deplete
the energy of initial mode-2 ISWs in ∼ 4.5 h, corresponding to a
propagation distance of ∼ 5 km, which is consistent with in situ data.
Electromagnetic characteristics of ENSO
Authors: Petereit Johannes , Saynisch Jan , Irrgang Christopher , Weber Tobias , Thomas Maik 
Published: June 2018

Abstract. The motion of electrically conducting sea water through Earth's magnetic
field induces secondary electromagnetic fields. Due to its periodicity, the
oceanic tidally induced magnetic field is easily distinguishable in magnetic
field measurements and therefore detectable. These tidally induced signatures
in the electromagnetic fields are also sensitive to changes in oceanic
temperature and salinity distributions. We investigate the impact of oceanic
heat and salinity changes related to the El Niño–Southern Oscillation (ENSO)
on oceanic tidally induced magnetic fields. Synthetic hydrographic
data containing characteristic ENSO dynamics have been derived from a coupled
ocean–atmosphere simulation covering a period of 50 years. The corresponding
tidally induced magnetic signals have been calculated with the 3-D induction
solver x3dg. By means of the Oceanic Niño Index (ONI), based on sea surface
temperature anomalies, and a corresponding Magnetic Niño Index (MaNI),
based on anomalies in the oceanic tidally induced magnetic field at sea
level, we demonstrate that evidence of developing ENSO events can be found in
the oceanic magnetic fields statistically 4 months earlier than in sea
surface temperatures. The analysis of the spatio-temporal progression of the
oceanic magnetic field anomalies offers a deeper understanding on the
underlying oceanic processes and is used to test and validate the initial
findings.

INDUSTRIAL BURNERS TESTING AND COMBUSTION EFFICIENCY ANALYSIS
Authors: Pimenta J. , De Lima L.C. , Duarte J.B.F. , Macedo R. M. 
Published: June 2018

This paper describes experimental procedures and techniques adopted for combustion analysis during the testing of burners for industrial applications. The tests were carried out in the Combustion Technology Laboratory (NTC) of the University of Fortaleza. The NTC facilities are composed basically of experimental testing hall, a monitoring room, a chromatography laboratory and a modeling and simulation studies room. In the lab testing hall, is installed a test bench composed basically of the following parts : a combustion chamber with nominal thermal capacity of 1.000.000 kcal/h, two fully instrumented gas and air supply sections, a gas analyzer for emissions measurement, a panel for monitoring of water supply to combustion chamber coil, a cooling tower for heat delivery of combustion chamber. A data acquisition and control system is available with all the hardware tools for monitoring of the combustion process. With all the acquired measurements of temperature, flow rate, pressures, emissions, etc., the First Law energy balance approach was used in order to evaluate the combustion efficiency of two different burners with 378.000 and 403.200 kcal/h nominal heat power. Analysis of preliminary results allows representing the burners efficiency according to different air and fuel operating conditions. The experimental data obtained are also compared with simulation results from the modeling of the combustion process, presented in another article linked with this work, where a discussion of such comparison is made. Future studies will be dedicated to the development of improved efficiency combustion systems for industrial and commercial applications.
MATHEMATICAL MODELLING OF SCALING IN A RESERVOIR WHICH CONTAINS IMPERMEABLE LAYERS
Authors: Bedrikovetsky P. , Rosario F. , Bezerra M. , Silva M. , Lopes Jr. R. 
Published: June 2018

Several different scenario of injected and reservoir water mixing have been proposed: mixing at high velocity near to injectors, mixing at low velocity inside reservoirs, mixing by diffusion via boundaries of layers with different permeabilities, mixing of injected, connate and aquifer waters at high velocity near to producers. Just the latter mechanism results in the accumulation of formation damage, while other mechanisms cause precipitation near to moving concentration front. In the current paper a new mechanism of oilfield scaling by diffusion of Barium from impermeable layer into the reservoir is proposed. The mechanism results in accumulation of precipitant and of formation damage. Viscous dominant regime of waterflooding takes place in the majority of oil fields. The Welge´s method allows calculating the permeability distribution from water cut history. The proposed extension to Welge´s method determines the partition of permeable layers in a reservoir from tracer concentration in production wells. Knowledge of this partition is important for modelling of oilfield scaling accounting for Barium supply from impermeable layers.
TESTING THE EFFICIENCY OF FENTONS REAGENT IN TREATMENT OF PETROLEUM-CONTAMINATED SAND
Authors: Millioli Valéria S. , Freire Denize D. C. , Cammarota Magali C. 
Published: June 2018

The removal of petroleum of beach sand after an oil spill in Guanabara Bay, Rio de Janeiro (Brazil) was studied using Fentons reagent (Fe2+ + H2O2) with H2O2 concentrations of 0.4 M and 4.0 M and Fe2+ concentrations of 2.7 g/L and 27.2 g/ L. The initial Oil & Grease (O&G) content in the contaminated sand was 32 g/kg sand. The maximum O&G removal obtained was 97 % after Fentons reaction. An analysis of the supernatant after the reaction showed that it was biodegradable. Chromatographic analysis indicated that Fentons reaction favored the modification and reduction of the fractions of saturated and aromatic hydrocarbons in the oil.
Merchant Account Books, Credit Sales, and Financial Development
Authors: Schwartz Jeremy T. , Flynn David T. , Karahan Gokhan 
Published: June 2018

Credit in colonial New England, including the credit practices used by merchants, invites study beyond that in the existing literature which largely limits investigation to an individual merchant. Textual analysis of 56 merchant account books from Connecticut and Massachusetts across a breadth of the eighteenth century and conversion to Lawful Money allows a common quantification of the financial extent of merchant transactions throughout the century. Through some descriptive statistics and non-parametric tests, we find that use of book credit is ubiquitous and in amounts that imply that merchants were de facto financial intermediaries essential for the development of the economy.

Published: June 2018

Abstract
Morbid obesity has reached epidemic proportions in the United States and constitutes a significant cause of morbidity and mortality. Bariatric surgery represents a viable and effective means of weight loss. Laparoscopic adjustable gastric band placement is the most commonly used and least invasive bariatric surgical technique. Although the complication rate is low, various complications have been described, including erosion of the gastric band into the stomach. The authors present a case of laparoscopic adjustable gastric band erosion, where both the band and the tubing eroded into the stomach and colon, and the tubing further eroded out of and back into the colon several times.

Published: June 2018

Rongcheng Bay is a coastal bay of the Northern Yellow Sea, China. To investigate and monitor the fish resources in Rongcheng Bay, 187 specimens from 41 different species belonging to 28 families in nine orders were DNA-barcoded using the mitochondrial cytochrome c oxidase subunit I gene (COI). Most of the fish species could be discriminated using this COI sequence with the exception of Cynoglossus joyneri and Cynoglossus lighti. The average GC% content of the 41 fish species was 47.3%. The average Kimura 2-parameter genetic distances within the species, genera, families, and orders were 0.21%, 5.28%, 21.30%, and 23.63%, respectively. Our results confirmed that the use of combined morphological and DNA barcoding identification methods facilitated fish species identification in Rongcheng Bay, and also established a reliable DNA barcode reference library for these fish. DNA barcodes will contribute to future efforts to achieve better monitoring, conservation, and management of fisheries in this area.
Alpha-mangostin inhibits the migration and invasion of A549 lung cancer cells

Published: June 2018

Several studies have indicated that α-mangostin exerts anti-metastasis and anti-subsistence effects on several types of cancer cells. Especially, the anti-metastatic effect of α-mangostin on cancer cells is a prospective function in cancer treatment. However, the metastasis process is complicated, and includes migration, invasion, intravasation, and extravasation; thus, the main target of anti-metastatic effect of α-mangostin is not known. In this study, we investigated the effects of α-mangostin on the invasion, subsistence, and migration of lung cancer cells under co-culture conditions with normal cells and regular mono-culture conditions. We found that α-mangostin killed the lung cancer and normal cells in a dose-dependent manner. Furthermore, the alteration in the surface mechanical properties of cells was examined by using atomic force microscopy. Although the α-mangostin concentrations of 5 and 10 µM did not affect the short-term cell viability, they considerably decreased the Young’s modulus of lung cancer cells implying a decline in cell surface actin cytoskeletal properties. Additionally, these concentrations of α-mangostin inhibited the migration of lung cancer cells. In co-culture conditions (cancer cells with normal cells), the invasive activities of cancer cells on normal cells were discernibly observed, and was inhibited after treatment with 5 and 10 µM of α-mangostin. Taken together, α-mangostin suppressed the subsistence of lung cancer cells and displayed anti-metastatic activities by inhibiting the migration and invasion, and reducing the actin cytoskeleton of cancer cells. Our findings suggest that α-mangostin could be a potential therapeutic agent for cancer treatment.
Mulch and groundcover effects on soil temperature and moisture, surface reflectance, grapevine water potential, and vineyard weed management
Authors: Bavougian Christina M. , Read Paul E. 
Published: June 2018

The objectives of this research were to identify alternatives to glyphosate for intra-row (under-trellis) vineyard floor management and to evaluate the potential for intra-row and inter-row (alleyway) groundcovers to reduce vegetative vigor of ‘Marquette’ grapevines (Vitisspp.) in a southeast Nebraska vineyard. The experiment was a randomized factorial design with five intra-row treatments (crushed glass mulch [CG], distillers’ grain mulch [DG], creeping red fescue [CRF], non-sprayed control [NSC], and glyphosate [GLY]) and three inter-row treatments (creeping red fescue [CRF], Kentucky bluegrass [KB], and resident vegetation [RV]). Treatments were established in 2010–2011 and measurements were conducted during 2012 and 2013 on 5- and 6-year-old vines. Soil temperatures were mostly higher under mulches and lower under intra-row groundcovers, compared to GLY. Weed cover in CG, DG, and CRF treatments was the same or less than GLY. At most sampling dates, inter-row soil moisture was lowest under KB. Intra-row soil moisture was highest under DG mulch and lowest under CRF and NSC; CG had the same or lower soil moisture than GLY. Surprisingly, we did not detect differences in mid-day photosynthetically active radiation (PAR) reflectance, despite visual differences among the intra-row treatments. Mid-day vine water potential did not differ among treatments. We concluded it is not necessary to maintain a bare soil strip under established vines in this region, where soil fertility and moisture are non-limiting.
