Authors: Boyd Carolyn E. , Marcos Marín Francisco , Goodmaster Christopher , Johnson Angel , Castaneda Amanda , Dwyer Benjamin 
Published: January 2016

<p>The Lower Pecos Canyonlands of southwest Texas and northern Mexico house some of the most complex and compositionally intricate prehistoric rock art in the world. Because of the unique nature and the incomparable richness of this cultural legacy, it is imperative to create a permanent visual, auditory and textual archive for present and future generations and to promote preservation of this resource through education. SHUMLA’s Lower Pecos Rock Art Recording and Preservation Project is meeting this need through digital documentation of rock art sites, creation of a digital library to archive rock art data, establishment of a comprehensive, multi-disciplinary research program, and continuation of hands-on education programs that connect people of all ages to this unique cultural legacy.</p>
Niggas in Paris?: Traveling between the “Who” and “What” of Diaspora in the Study of African American Religion
Authors: Driscoll Christopher , Miller Monica R. 
Published: January 2016

Abstract
Designators of diasporic travel used within African American religion are seldom interrogated for the manner in which they rely on and reify sacred/profane thinking. These designators also attempt to recuperate a past identity through reliance on self-evident claims like “home,” “memory,” “experience,” and so on. We turn to author James Baldwin and rapper Kanye West to emphasize the manner in which such travel and movement is multiplicative, never an endeavor limited to either sacred or profane. In an effort to take stock of the “both/and” of diasporic travel, we offer the theoretical instrument of aporetic flow, understood as the creative transmutation of impossibility into opportunity, where nonpassages enable movement. We seek to demonstrate how the analytic might contribute to theory and method in the study of African American religion specifically, and add to nascent critical discussions across the study of religion more generally that are beginning to situate “religion” as identity.
The Subaltern Can Speak: Reading the Mmutle (Hare) Way
Authors: Dube Musa W. 
Published: January 2016

Abstract
African oratures consist of a significant corpus of trickster stories. This article investigates indigenous frameworks of reading texts by exploring the philosophical stance of Mmutle, the trickster of Southern Africa, by analyzing eight stories. The analysis of the Mmutle trickster discourse highlights four postures of reading for liberation. First, the vulnerable and oppressed should keep a permanent vigil toward the powerful and always watch out for their interests without fail. Second, the vulnerable and oppressed should be willing to be in solidarity with other vulnerable and oppressed members of the society and to use teamwork. Third, sharp and transgressive thinking skills are vital weapons of resistance, survival, and liberation. Fourth, the Mmutle trickster philosophical framework demands skills of rewriting and redirecting a story toward new and unexpected ends in the service of resistance, survival, and liberation.

Published: January 2016

This study was conducted to evaluate the suitability of soaked <em>Bauhinia monandra</em> (Kutz) seed as alternative protein source for <em>Clarias gariepinus</em> and to determine cost of feed compounded. The proximate analysis of the diet (crude protein, crude fibre, ash, moisture content and lipid) were determined using AOAC (1980). Data for each parameter was subjected to one way analysis of variance (ANOVA) while means of various results were compared at 5% level of significance. A preliminary study was conducted to determine the best processing method that reduced anti-nutrients to the minimum level without impairing nutrients composition. Boiled, toasted and soaked seeds were used. <em>Bauhinia</em> seeds soaked for 96 hours had least concentration of anti-nutrients. The experimental diets was formulated to contain soaked <em>Bauhinia</em> seed meal (SBSM) at levels of 25%, 50% and 75% inclusion (Diets 2, 3 and 4 respectively) with two diets acting as control (Diets 1 and 5). All diets were isonitrogenous (40% crude protein) and isocaloric (3212kcal/kg). A 12 weeks feeding trial was conducted using juveniles which were randomly distributed into 12 improvised non-recirculatory and semi-flow through indoor plastic tanks (52cm X 34cm X 33.5cm) at a stocking rate of 10 fish per tank and three (3) replicates per treatment. The experimental design was complete randomized. The fish were fed at 5% body weight, twice daily. Diets with higher inclusion levels of SBSM (diets 3 and 4) significantly depressed growth performance of fish. The variations observed in the Specific Growth Rate (SGR), Feed Conversion Ratio (FCR), Feed Efficiency Ratio (FER) and Protein Efficiency Ratio (PER) were associated with the anti-nutrients present in the diets, these parameters reduced with increasing levels of SBSM in the diets of fish. Based on the relative cost of diets per unit weight gain and protein gain, diet 2 (25% SBSM) was most economical. The results suggested that SBSM can be used to substitute up to 25% levels of dietary protein in <em>C. gariepinus</em> juveniles without significant reduction in growth.
La problemática del poder de reforma constitucional en Brasil: clausulas pétreas, control judicial de enmiendas constitucionales y principio democrático
Authors: Almagro Castro David 
Published: January 2016

ResumenEl presente artículo propone un análisis del poder de reforma constitucional en la CF 1988 y los principales problemas derivados de su diseño constitucional. Su dinámica procesal presenta matices que por su interés requieren de un sucinto análisis descriptivo. El segundo bloque de estudio se centra en las consecuencias derivadas que la imposición de límites expresos a la acción del legislador constituyente derivado – las clausulas pétreas del artículo 60, § 4º CF – tiene en la tensión dialéctica entre el constitucionalismo y el principio democrático. La amplitud de las categorías jurídicas incluidas en el citado dispositivo constitucional junto a posibles interpretaciones extensivas derivadas de la condición analítica de la CF amplifica el riesgo de petrificación del texto constitucional. Cierra este articulo un análisis crítico de las posibilidades de control jurisdiccional de las enmiendas constitucionales a la luz del citado artículo 60, § 4º CF. Se aboga por una restricción del mismo a aquellas violaciones manifiestas y explícitas del contenido esencial de las clausulas pétreas compatibles con la dificultad contramayoritaria. AbstractThe present paper proposes an analysis of the constitutional reform power established under the CF 1988 and the main questions concerning its design. Its procedural dynamic show some aspects so relevant than demands a short descriptive analysis. The second part it is focused on the issues as the results of the incorporation of undeniable legal limits to the action of the constituent legislator – the well-known as inflexible clauses put on the article 60, § 4º CF – for the dialectical tension between the constitutionalism and the democratic principle. The wide extension of the legal categories included in that constitutional dispositive, besides with a possible extensive interpretation provided by the analytical condition of the CF, bring with itself a high risk of constitutional stagnation. This article ends with a critical analyses about the real possibilities of judicial review over the constitutional amendments in the light of the article 60, § 4º CF. We defend a self restraint attitude focus on the undeniable violations of the essential contain of the inflexible clauses that results compatible with the contra majority difficulty.
A review of population control methods in captive-housed primates
Authors: Wallace PY , Asa CS , Agnew M , Cheyne SM 
Published: January 2016

AbstractThe success of breeding primates in captivity has led to a surplus number of animals in collections. This review examines published journals and key books to investigate the various methods of primate population control. Hormonal, surgical and separation methods are discussed and evaluated with regards to behavioural and welfare implications. Methods of dealing with surplus animals are also reviewed. It is concluded that the successes of contraception methods vary significantly between species, and in some cases not enough is known to conclusively state that one method is preferable to another. The behavioural effects of contraception should be evaluated, as social status and sexual behaviours can be negatively affected by contraception. Non-reversible sterilisation methods, such as castration, should not be used without thorough evaluation due to the behavioural effects on the individual and group as a whole. Overall, the zoo community should share information of successes and failures of contraception in different species, and professional advice should be sought to ensure that the welfare of primates in captivity is not compromised.
Projections photographiques et cinéma des premiers temps : La Houillère de Gustave Marissiaux et les origines du cinéma minier
Authors: Mélon Marc-Emmanuel 
Published: January 2016

L’analyse comparée d’un spectacle photographique de Gustave Marissiaux intitulé La Houillère (1905) et d’un film produit par Pathé la même année et consacré à l’univers minier (Au pays noir, de Lucien Nonguet et Ferdinand Zecca) montre non seulement que le clivage des supports de projection correspond nettement à un clivage social, mais aussi que ce clivage est esthétique : le réalisme photographique du documentaire industriel est aux antipodes du réalisme social – mais théâtral – du drame cinématographique. Néanmoins, ce constat permet de revoir l’histoire du cinéma minier des premiers temps (jusqu’à Germinal d’André Capellani, 1913) comme une intégration progressive du réalisme photographique et du réalisme social.
La science des projections
Authors: Noblecourt Pauline 
Published: January 2016

Comment la projection, entendue à la fois comme outil de vulgarisation scientifique et comme dispositif de divertissement, a-t-elle été réinvestie, et réinventée, par le théâtre du 19e siècle ? Cet article analyse le Catalogue des appareils employés pour la production des phénomènes physiques au théâtre (1877) de Duboscq : la variété des dispositifs de projection destinés à la scène qui y sont proposés éclaire à la fois les transferts techniques entre le champ de la recherche scientifique et celui du spectacle vivant, et les réinventions esthétiques qu’a permis au théâtre l’adoption de la projection.
Otto Piene, The Proliferation of the Sun (1967) : la projection lumineuse dans l’expanded cinema
Authors: Joly Noémi 
Published: January 2016

The Proliferation of the Sun d’Otto Piene – une performance multimédia reposant sur un dispositif de projections de diapositives colorées – inaugure au printemps 1967 la programmation du Black Gate Theater de New York avec Blackout d’Aldo Tambellini. Elle relève de l’expanded cinema par son orchestration des sollicitations sensorielles, qui visent à acclimater l’homme aux nouvelles données de l’ère spatiale. La transparence inhérente à la projection ouvre l’expérience à une compréhension idéologique de la lumière sous le signe d’une utopie communicationnelle qui marque les débuts de l’art vidéo (Black Gate Cologne, 1968).
Aux commencements de la perspective : section ou projection ?
Authors: Flécheux Céline 
Published: January 2016

La projection est-elle l’autre nom de la perspective centrale ? Incontestablement; mais si la méthode est bel et bien à l’oeuvre chez les artistes dès le 15e siècle, il ne faudra pas moins de deux siècles pour la nommer comme telle. Nous tenterons de comprendre sur quoi repose pareil décalage entre un nom (la projection) et sa pratique (la perspective). L’article se propose de définir la méthode projective en remontant aux sources des premières mises en perspective au 15e siècle, afin de rendre compte du rôle déterminant du miroir dans les nouvelles images. Filippo Brunelleschi, Leon Battista Alberti et Jan van Eyck sont les principales figures de la transformation de la perspective en méthode projective.

The bases for the article were provided by: (1) review of the literature in related social services policy development areas; (2) analyses and review of the literature specific to service eligibility; (3) analyses of related socio-economic data from international organizations and registries. Eligibility is proposed as an essential element of social services within the context of citizens’ rights, cultural mores and customs, political processes and economic conditions of the six contributing countries. These data sources were augmented by review of summary narratives of the history and status of social services development.
Surface force measurement of ultraviolet nanoimprint lithography materials
Authors: Taniguchi Jun , Hasegawa Masayuki , Amemiya Hironao , Kobayashi Hayato 
Published: January 2016

Abstract
Ultraviolet nanoimprint lithography (UV-NIL) has advantages such as room-temperature operation, high through-put, and high resolution. In the UV-NIL process, the mold needs a release coating material to prevent adhesion of the transfer resin. Usually, fluorinated silane coupling agents are used as release coating materials. To evaluate the release property, surface force analyzer equipment was used. This equipment can measure the surface forces between release-coated or noncoated mold material surfaces and UV-cured resin surfaces in the solid state. Lower surface forces were measured when a release coating was used on the mold material surface.

Synthesis and characterization of TiO2 on ZnO-nanorod layer for high-efficiency electrochemiluminescence cell application
Authors: Chansri Pakpoom , Sung Youl-Moon 
Published: January 2016

Abstract
In this research paper, we present the fabrication of an electrochemiluminescence (ECL) cell with TiO2 on ZnO-nanorod electrodes via the dip-coating technique. The TiO2 nanoparticles coated on ZnO nanorods (TiO2-ZNRs) were grown on transparent conductive oxide (TCO) glass by the dip-coating technique. The electrode of TiO2-ZNRs for ECL cells has the structure F-doped SnO2 (FTO) glass/Ru(II) complex [Ru(bpy)3
2+]/TiO2-ZNRs/FTO glass. The TiO2-ZNRs were coated on FTO glass by spin-coating and dip-coating methods. The X-ray diffraction system, scanning electron microscope, and spectral brightness analyzer were used to confirm the successful formation of the structure and the morphological properties. The threshold voltage at the start of light emission was 2.25 V for TiO2-ZNRs and was lower than 3.25 V for bare FTO. The threshold voltage was l2.5 V for ZNRs. The electrical and optical properties of the TiO2-ZNRs ECL cell were 30.76 cd/m2 light intensity, 0.067 mA output current, 0.268 cd/A (at 9.67 mA/cm2) current efficiency, and 0.068 lm/W ECL efficiency at 5 V and 60 Hz. The peak intensity of the TiO2-ZNRs-based ECL cell at a wavelength of 621 nm exhibited a dark orange color and was independent of the type of electrode used. The use of TiO2-ZNRs could improve the ECL efficiency and long-lifetime stability.
Growth and characterizations of tin doped zinc-phthalocyanine prepared by thermal co-evaporation in high vacuum as a nanomaterial
Authors: Kayunkid Navaphun , Rangkasikorn Adirek , Saributr Chaloempol , Nukeaw Jiti 
Published: January 2016

Abstract
This research is related to the growth and characterizations of the novel hybrid nanomaterial, tin doped zinc-phthalocyanine thin films (Sn-doped ZnPC), grown by thermal co-evaporation. The concentration of Sn in hybrid films was controlled by adjusting the deposition rate between Sn and ZnPc. The hybrid films were characterized by atomic force microscopy and UV–visible spectroscopy to reveal the physical and optical properties of hybrid films. Moreover, the electrical properties, e.g., carrier mobility and carrier concentration, of the indium tin oxide (ITO)/Sn-doped ZnPc/aluminium (Al) devices were extracted from the current–voltage and capacitance–voltage characteristics. Furthermore, X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy and Raman spectroscopy was employed to explore the chemical interaction taking place in doped films. Sn doping into ZnPc changes the film’s specific properties, e.g., morphology, crystalline packing, absorption spectra, and conductivity. Moreover, no chemical bond is formed between Sn and ZnPc, and Sn dopants are formed as metal clusters covered by derivative oxide (SnO
x
) embedded in the Sn-doped ZnPc film.

Published: January 2016

Abstract
The structures and electronic states of alkyl-radical-functionalized C20 fullerenes (denoted by C20–R) have been investigated using density functional theory (DFT). The different alkyl radicals investigated were methyl, ethyl, propyl, and butyl radicals. The DFT calculation indicated that the alkyl radical binds to the carbon atom of C20 in the on-top site, thus forming a strong C–C single bond. The binding energies of the alkyl radicals to C20 were calculated to be 83.9–86.6 kcal/mol at the CAM-B3LYP/6-311G(d,p) level. The electronic states of the C20–R complex are discussed on the basis of the theoretical results.

Preparing State Universities and Colleges in Ilocos Sur for Amalgamation: A Technological Perspective on Promotion and Tenure
Authors: Lamarca Bryan Irvin J. 
Published: January 2016

This paper aims to assess pre-amalgamation initiatives of the three State Universities and Colleges (SUCs) in Ilocos Sur namely: the University of Northern Philippines (UNP), Ilocos Sur Polytechnic College (ISPSC), and North Luzon Polytechnic State College (NLPSC) along the facet of promotion and tenure and Information Technology (IT), and embed new solutions to the NBC 461 Software of the Zonal Evaluation & Computerization Center. A descriptive statistical approach was used to evaluate new proposed solutions and features that will be embedded in the software in achieving quality experience and service for the faculty. Results revealed that there will be no merging of faculty and staff among the constituent universities, and the procedure of promotion and tenure of faculty will not be affected when the amalgamation pushes through. The study revealed that faculty are not satisfied with the output generated by the software and are gearing towards improving the system. Furthermore, it is also revealed that the software is amalgamation-ready but it lacks features and functionalities that could validate the promotion process. In conclusion, appropriate software improvement and policy suggestions were suggested for the efficient utilization of the software in providing convenience for end users.

Mass Media Exposure and Reading Proficiency of Students in Diploma in Agricultural Technology
Authors: Tabares May Nectar Cyrill L. 
Published: January 2016

The study aimed to determine the level of exposure to mass media of the students in Diploma in Agricultural Technology of the Surallah National Agricultural School and its relation to their reading proficiency. It employed mean values to determine the respondents’ level of exposure to mass media and their level of reading proficiency. Pearson-product moment coefficient of correlation was utilized to determine the relationship between their level of exposure to mass media and their reading proficiency. The findings revealed that the students had inadequate or low exposure to mass media on the basis of interest, availability of materials, time spent for their choices and benefits they would receive. However, the level of reading proficiency of DAT students in the vocabulary and comprehension skills was very high with a qualitative description of very good. The level of exposure of the students to both print and electronics films media was moderately related to read proficiency as reflected by r=0.452. A significant relationship was divulged between the level of mass media exposure and the reading proficiency of the students. Hence, exposure to the different mass media must be enhanced to further develop the students in their intellectual capacities, especially in their reading proficiency skills.
