Abstract This paper results from a theoretical reflection on aesthetics, aesthetics of consumption and aesthetics and advertising. It is a consequence of a research in progress in GESC3 (Center of Semiotic Studies in Communication, Culture and Consumption) and in CEDE (Center of Aesthetic Studies), whose works look for joining the multidisciplinary thinking among consumption studies and advertising. These researches are identified by empiricism, founded in semiotic methods and in ethnography in the last decade. All researches show us that nowadays consumption is essentially an aesthetic consumption, perceived by the visual or sensorial aspects in the material offers, or in the conceptual exploitations of gender, ethnicity, age and so many others aesthetically aspects emphasized by advertising campaigns, as well as by the several brands' expressivities.

Climatic effects on a cold stenotherm species Lepidurus arcticus (Branchiopoda, Notostraca) on the southern outreach of its distribution range

Published: December 2018

On the Norwegian mainland, the Arctic tadpole shrimp Lepidurus arcticus is a typically alpine species mainly co-occurring with fish. The Hardangervidda mountain plateau is the main area of the southernmost L. arcticus populations. Here L. arcticus is widely distributed, especially in the central and eastern parts of the plateau. Lepidurus arcticus has a univoltine life cycle emerging from resting eggs at ice break-up and fulfil development during the short mountain summer, before they reproduce and die. The main goal in this study was to investigate the thermal thresholds for L. arcticus. Timing of ice break-up and the proceeding water temperature are hypothesized to constitute the primary drivers of L. arcticus's development and growth. Stomach analyses of brown trout is the most sensitive method for sampling L. arcticus, especially at low densities. Analyses of 4 460 brown trout stomachs revealed that at least 400 degree-days are needed for development and growth from hatching in to adults. It is a significant gradient in climatic conditions on Hardangervidda with a coastal impact in the western part of the plateau with a three - to fourfold winter deposition compared to a dryer inland region in the east. The snow deposits have increased since the 1980s and snow rich winters have been more frequent. An additional increase is projected. This may give lower water temperature and shorter ice-free seasons. Thus, the cold western lakes could be even more hostile habitats for L. arcticus. During the same period, an abrupt increase in spring-summer temperatures was detected. This has improved the conditions for L. arcticus in many lakes. However, as a cold stenotherm species a further increase in temperature may be detrimental. Especially in shallow lakes in the central and eastern parts this may be a problem even without reaching critical levels by inducing life cycle mismatches.
Post-truth as Symptom: The Emergence of a Masculine Hysteria
Authors: Myres Jason David 
Published: December 2018

ABSTRACT
This article investigates the formal dimensions of “post-truth” as a discourse. Specifically, I read post-truth as symptom, not as an “era” or “world.” The emergence of this symptom, the post-truth signifier, directs our attention to an anxiety regarding the desire for truth, rather than its presence or absence in public discourse. Based on Jacques Lacan's theory of discourse in Seminar XVII: The Other Side of Psychoanalysis, I argue that the emergence of the term “post-truth” in the popular vernacular epitomizes a masculinized discourse of hysteria. To outline the formal features of post-truth discourse, I draw upon an early use of the term “post-truth” in a 1992 article of the Nation written by screenwriter and playwright Steve Tesich. The article concludes by consulting the critical psychoanalytic writings of Hélène Cixous and Luce Irigaray to better specify the uniquely masculine form of post-truth hysteria and its implications for public discourse.
“Zombies Are Real”: Fantasies, Conspiracies, and the Post-truth Wars
Authors: Watts Eric King 
Published: December 2018

ABSTRACTThis article asserts that post-truth is the name we have assigned to a powerful repetitive mode of discourse that legitimizes conspiracies and anxieties regarding how blackened biothreat bodies will be unleashed upon society. Post-truth signifies a kind of excess and excessiveness wherein grammars of common sense making are overrun. Post-truth indexes a desire for gratuitous violence against norms of civil society—indeed, against civil society itself. Post-truth is not a set of lies. It is a precondition for tribal war. The article sets forth post-truth as a disorienting and frightening “dissemblage” that is driven by fantasies of sovereignty, rituals of militarization, and the colonization of expertise. I outline the formal features of post-truth by examining a docudrama produced by the Discovery Channel called Zombie Preppers. In the end I speculate about how post-truth metastasizes in the social body as “brain damage.”

Published: December 2018

This project is a contribution to the continuous improvement of the education of engineers, which involves all the stakeholders in the field. It presents the primary results of a quantitative study of mechanical engineering training in the Higher National School of Electricity and Mechanics (École Nationale Supérieure d'Électricité et Mécanique - ENSEM), in collaboration with numerous Moroccan industrialists. The first phase of the research consisted in the issue as well as the research methodology adopted. In the second phase, a survey instrument was developed based on the competency framework as a research model, and then the hypotheses to be tested were outlined. Then, a questionnaire was designed and pre-tested for the purposes of this examination, which was subsequently completed by industry leaders from different sectors. The results obtained show the strengths and weaknesses in ENSEM's training in mechanical engineering and reveal the correlations between the various engineering competencies. The paper finally ends with a listing of recommendations to address the diverse issues identified, in addition to a statement of the further prospects for this research.
De la comunicación virtual a la interacción presencial en la ciudad. La persistente relevancia del espacio geográfico para las relaciones sociales
Authors: García-Macías Alejandro , De León Vázquez Salvador 
Published: December 2018

El artículo expone la metodología y resultados de un análisis de casos tipo en geografía de redes personales que examina el incrustamiento espacial y relacional de las interacciones sociales mediante el análisis de las dimensiones de las distancias interpersonales y las configuraciones de las redes sociales en el espacio urbano, en diferentes momentos del tiempo y lugares de interacción. Desde la teoría y método del Análisis de Redes Sociales se describen las redes de una muestra de informantes tipo (N=6) conformadas por contactos personales (n=87) de los informantes que habitan en la misma ciudad y con quienes mantienen contacto regular a través de Whatsapp. Las redes en los espacios de habitación, trabajo o estudio y esparcimiento se presentan en sociogramas sobre mapas georreferenciados, calculando diversos índices de geo-dispersión y sus correlaciones tanto con los atributos de los actores individuales como con los principales indicadores de composición y estructura reticulares. Los resultados apoyan los argumentos en favor del fuerte carácter local de las interacciones sociales, incluso de aquellas tecnológica y virtualmente mediadas, como las dadas a través de WhatsApp.
In the labyrinth of interpretations – plastique animée in the context of an open work
Authors: Pasternak Anetta 
Published: December 2018

Plastique animée is an artistic superstructure of the Emil Jaques-Dalcroze method and its key issue lies in musical expression of movement. In the process of developing a kinesthetic interpretation of a musical work, it is difficult to find an original manner of reading music, particularly with regard to modern compositions. For they do not carry clear messages, thus giving much room for diverse methods of analyzing the work, depending on imagination, knowledge and sensitivity of an interpreter. The term of an ‘open work’, understood by Umberto Eco as the ambiguity of an artistic message, stems from its indescribability. The final form of this type of a work is given to it by a recipient, who interprets it from one’s own individual perspective. As a result of a high receptiveness level of contemporary music, which does not express emotions in an unambiguous way, the plastique animée artist therefore focuses one’s attention primarily on the abundance of spatial and kinesthetic forms. Lack of specified functional progressions makes it harder to anticipate the course of music and thus eliminates stereotyping on the part of a recipient. Work on the realization of an open work in the context of plastique animée is a kind of creative training which develops an innovative attitude. The author of the article presents problems that arise during realization of plastique animée, related to interpretation of an open work.
Toward maintaining mental hygiene of an artist. Practical tips
Authors: Romanowicz Martyna 
Published: December 2018

The article presents knowledge that may help artists understand themselves better and cope with potential obstacles accompanying creative processes. According to Kazimierz Dąbrowski [1964], there are five overexcitabilities that predispose someone for outstanding achievements in artistic and scientific disciplines. I am going to present practical tips on how to manage them skillfully, based on original proposals of Zofia Paśniewska-Kuć [2010], and to discuss obstacles that may appear during a creative process, characterized by Mirosław Dymon [2008]. In order to overcome them, an artist is required to build one’s inner autonomy and to develop the skill of a smart emotion management. The difference between freedom and compulsion when following a passion is highlighted by the authors of the dualist model of passion [Vallerand et al., 2003]. Readers can learn how to follow a harmonious passion and how to avoid the obsessive one, but first and foremost how to create original, interesting works and maintain mental health at the same time. Recommended tips probably are not universal and exhaustive, still they should come useful when recognizing individual problems artists may face.
Atorvastatin: A Review of Analytical Methods for Pharmaceutical Quality Control and Monitoring
Authors: Kogawa Ana Carolina , Pires Ana Elisa Della Torre , Salgado Hérida Regina Nunes 
Published: December 2018

Abstract
Background: Atorvastatin, a lipid-regulating drug, was the best-selling drug in the world in the early 2000s. Thus, monitoring of this drug is important because it is accessible to a large portion of the population. In addition, its quality control is fundamental to provide quality medicines. Method of analysis can be the first step in the rational use of pharmaceuticals. Objective/Methods: In this context, a critical review of analytical methods present in the literature and official compendia for the pharmaceutical quality control of atorvastatin was made. Results: Among the analytical methods most used in the evaluation of atorvastatin, HPLC is highlighted, followed by HPLC coupled to MS, and spectrophotometry in UV. Tablets are the most studied pharmaceutical samples, and plasma is the most studied biological matrix. In the literature, studies with atorvastatin-based pharmaceutical products are more common than biological materials. Acetonitrile is the organic solvent most commonly used in the methods surveyed to evaluate atorvastatin. Conclusions: Currently, awareness of the impact that the analytical choice has on the health of the operator and the environment is growing. Therefore, the suitability of existing methods for the determination of atorvastatin can be made to adhere to the current analytical chemistry. In this way, the analytical, environmental, and human consciousness will remain united. Highlights: Although the literature shows interesting methods from an economic and environmental point of view, such as UV, Vis miniaturized, and TLC, they can still be improved to meet the requirements of the current sustainable analytical chemistry.

Published: December 2018

Abstract
Background: Aurantii Fructus Immaturus (AFI) and Aurantii Fructus (AF) are two traditional citrus herbs with health-promoting and nutritive properties. Objective: This paper presents the first attempt to simultaneously investigate the absorption of five major flavanone glycosides, namely narirutin, naringin, hesperidin, neohesperidin, and poncirin, in rat plasma following a single oral administration of AFI and AF extracts to rats. Methods: The plasma concentrations were determined by liquid–liquid extraction followed by a rapid and sensitive ultra-performance LC-tandem mass spectrometry method. Pharmacokinetic parameters were analyzed by noncompartmental modeling using DAS software. Results: The developed method was validated and successfully applied to the pharmacokinetic study of these five flavanone glycosides. Conclusions: The comparison of the pharmacokinetic parameters of flavanone glycosides showed that the absorption of AF extract was lower, while the elimination was relatively rapid, compared with those of AFI extract. Highlights: This study may be useful for further utilization of these two citrus herbs.
A Summary of Current DNA Methods for Herb and Spice Identification
Authors: Bayley Alison 
Published: December 2018

Abstract
Appropriate use of genetic methods for botanicalidentification is based on the type of sequencing used as well as testing region selection. Although Sanger sequencing is useful for single-target species identification, targeted next generation sequencing is ideal for testing blended products or those that contain unexpected species. Unknown, fresh, or lightly processed materials are best tested throughthe use of long, universal deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) regions (e.g., DNA barcodes). For highly processed products, using shorter and more specific regions helps to prevent false negatives and positives. All approaches must use DNA extraction techniques that address the presence of inhibitory compounds, which often occur in abundance within herbs and spices. The accuracy of identifications is improved when comparing genetic data of any type with a reference database that contains expertly determined vouchered materials, a variety of closely related species, and multiple specimens of the same species.
(re)Médiations numériques et perturbations des sciences sociales contemporaines
Authors: Beaude Boris 
Published: December 2018

La traçabilité sans précédent des pratiques sociales réactive des clivages qui ont divisé les sciences depuis lexixesiècle. L’abondance des données et la puissance de leur traitement semblent fragiliser la sociologie, alors même que la physique ou l’informatique investissent activement ses problématiques de prédilection. La sociologie n’aurait plus le monopole du social, dont les relations ne seraient pas si singulières, et pourrait faire l’objet de traitements éprouvés par les sciences de la nature. Afin de mieux saisir les enjeux relatifs au déploiement des dispositifs numériques à l’ensemble des pratiques contemporaines, nous proposons de distinguer l’évolution des relations sociales de l’observation de ces relations, de la production de connaissances et, enfin, de la production de sens, comme autant de « remédiations numériques ».Nous n’assisterions ainsi pas tant à une crise de la sociologie empirique qu’à la résurgence de l’idéal d’une physique sociale opposant aux qualités de l’interprétation la puissance de l’efficience. En faisant l’économie de plus d’un siècle de sciences sociales, ce projet promu par une science sociale computationnelle entretient pourtant de nombreux malentendus et une négligence surprenante de la réflexivité, récusant activement le propre de l’humain au profit de lois supposées universelles.
