Elite interviewing in media and communications policy research
Authors: Herzog Christian , Ali Christopher 
Published: August 2015

Abstract
This article critically examines the use of elite interviews in media and communications policy research. It addresses the fit between various analytical frameworks and elite interviews as a primary source of data, interviewee selection, access, the conduct of interviews and data analysis. It is argued that there is a lack of methodological explanation and reflection in our field of study. Partly, this is determined by the preferences of publishers and space constrains but also a widespread reluctance to engage with methodological issues. This contributes to the diminishing relevance of large amounts of scholarship for policy-makers who tend to privilege studies based on narrowly defined and soundly elaborated empirical methods. Clear and concise methodological rigour, systematization and ethnographic reflexivity, thus, play an incredibly important role.
Digital divides? UK Film Council strategy and the digital screen network
Authors: Boyle Raymond 
Published: August 2015

Abstract
In retrospect it is easy to identify digital technology and the disruptive nature of the Internet as two key factors shaping the broader screen landscape over the last decade or so, but how did organizations deal with that process at the time? This article examines the role that digitization and its wider ramification across the UK film industry’s patterns of distribution and exhibition played in both the strategic thinking and the operational practice of the UK Film Council (UKFC) during its lifetime (2000–2011). It draws on interviews with key policy shapers and asks whether the UKFC was too slow to identify the transformative impact that digital would have on all areas of the film industry. By focusing on the origins and implementation of the Digital Screen Network, this article examines the impact of this programme on the UK film industry. It also offers insight into the organizational challenges of shaping digital film policy in an international industry.
French cultural policy and the cinematic landscape of postwar Saarland: Comparative research on small-town and big-city cinemas, 1945–1955
Authors: Maldener Aline 
Published: August 2015

Abstract
This article offers a case study of cultural policy in the post-World War II period in a transitional, often disputed, European region, the Saarland. It tries to illustrate how the French government struggled to infiltrate Saarland’s cinematic landscape from 1945 to 1955. Preferably by means of cultural and documentary films either respecting the specifities of a Saarland mentality and socio-structure or glorifying the region as a flagship European border country, Saarland’s inhabitants should be proselytized from their one-way orientation towards Germany and instead become more open to French culture and customs. However, in the final analysis we found that the impact of French cultural policy on Saarland’s filmic and cinematic landscape remained what it was from the outset: a top-down policy-programme control and ideal conception that was either totally rejected as French high culture or only slightly diffused into the everyday reality of their targeted recipients.
Monotone Valuations on the Space of Convex
Functions
Authors: Cavallina L. , Colesanti A. 
Published: August 2015

Abstract
We consider the space Cn of convex functions u defined in Rn with values in R ∪ {∞}, which are
lower semi-continuous and such that lim|x| } ∞ u(x) = ∞. We study the valuations defined on Cn which are
invariant under the composition with rigid motions, monotone and verify a certain type of continuity. We
prove integral representations formulas for such valuations which are, in addition, simple or homogeneous.
On asymptotic stability of global solutions in the weak L
2 space for the two-dimensional Navier–Stokes equations
Authors: Maekawa Yasunori 
Published: August 2015

Abstract
In this paper we prove the asymptotic stability of small global solutions in the weak L
2 space for the two-dimensional Navier–Stokes equations under a natural functional setting for the class of perturbations. Our result is a global one, that is, we do not impose any smallness on the perturbations.
Prenatal diagnosis of a giant fetal hepatic hemangioma: a case report
Authors: Daher Alain , Dommergues Marc , Kesrouani Assaad , Vibert-Guigue Claude , Nizard Jacky 
Published: August 2015

Abstract
We report a case of uncomplicated giant fetal hepatic hemangioma with a good outcome. A 57×38 mm heterogeneous hepatic mass, mostly hypoechogenic was observed post prenatal ultrasound, at 33 weeks’ gestation (WG) and 5 days. Color Doppler confirmed the vascular pattern of the mass. The image size stayed stable, with no associated complications, and a cesarean birth at 37 WG was performed for fetal protection. Subsequent postnatal follow-up showed spontaneous regression of the tumor. Antenatal diagnosis and management of fetal liver masses are discussed in this paper. This case supports the hypothesis that complications of giant fetal hepatic hemangioma are not related only to its size. Prognostic factors and guidelines for follow-up need to be determined.
Dependence Measuring from Conditional
Variances
Authors: Kamnitui Noppadon , Santiwipanont Tippawan , Sumetkijakan Songkiat 
Published: August 2015

Abstract
A conditional variance is an indicator of the level of independence between two random variables.
We exploit this intuitive relationship and define a measure v which is almost a measure of mutual complete
dependence. Unsurprisingly, the measure attains its minimum value for many pairs of non-independent ran-
dom variables. Adjusting the measure so as to make it invariant under all Borel measurable injective trans-
formations, we obtain a copula-based measure of dependence v* satisfying A. Rényi’s postulates. Finally, we
observe that every nontrivial convex combination of v and v* is a measure of mutual complete dependence.
Modeling the Electrohydrodynamic (EHD) Drying of Banana Slices
Authors: Pirnazari Kianoosh , Esehaghbeygi Ali , Sadeghi Morteza 
Published: August 2015

Abstract
Electrohydrodynamic (EHD) drying of banana slices was modeled both numerically and empirically. The drying process was conducted using the EHD technique at 6, 8, and 10 kV cm−1 with banana slices 3 mm thick. Based on the maximum coefficient of determination (R
2) and minimum value of root mean square of error (RMSE) observed in the experimental and predicted values of moisture ratio, the diffusion model was identified as the best prediction model. The values for effective moisture diffusivity were calculated to be in the range of 3.12 × 10−10 to 4.23 × 10−10 m2 s−1. In addition, a theoretical model was developed using the numerical (implicit) solution of the second Fick’s equation based on low variation in the external resistance by applying EHD. Moisture ratio versus time showed a falling rate period indicating that the internal moisture transfer is dominant at EHD. Results of numerical solution showed adequate consistency with experimental data, having the maximum difference of less than 0.16 g g−1 in moisture content.
Equal status, but unequal perceptions: language conflict in the bilingual city of Biel/Bienne
Authors: Elmiger Daniel 
Published: August 2015

AbstractThe city of Biel/Bienne is often cited as a model of a non-conflicting cohabitation between two language groups with a similar status: German (i.e. in a diglossic situation: Standard German and Swiss German dialects) and French both benefit from explicit political promotion and legal protection. In a qualitative study conducted in the city of Biel/Bienne, most of the 40 interviewees talking about their lives in this bilingual city confirm this consensual view of linguistic cohabitation. However, the apparent balance between both communities is challenged on different levels, including the relationship between language communities according to their respective minority and majority status, the status and the visibility of both languages in the public sphere, the conflicting loyalties of bilingual citizens, the use or avoidance of a language in certain contexts or the choice of a common language in (potentially) bilingual interactions. The results of the analysis reveal divergent – and potentially conflicting – perceptions regarding urban bilingualism: although most of the interviewees appreciate the linguistic cohabitation in Biel/Bienne, many of them refer to various zones of language conflict which they suffer from or which they allot to the other speech community.
Changements urbains et conflits sociolinguistiques: l’impact de la gentrification sur le français de Marseille

Published: August 2015

AbstractAs France’s second largest town and the European Capital of Culture in 2013, Marseille is well-known for what is considered the most famous accent in the country, the so-called “Marseille (working-class) accent”, prototype of the “Southern” or “Provençal” accent and often opposed to a more affected or stiff “Parisian” accent (Combining urban sociolinguistics (Calvet
Endoscopy Analysis for the Peristaltic Flow of Nanofluids Containing Carbon Nanotubes with Heat Transfer
Authors: Akbar Noreen Sher 
Published: August 2015

Abstract
Cu–water nanofluid with carbon nanotubes is considered for the peristaltic flow in an endoscope. The peristaltic flow for nanofluid is modelled considering that the peristaltic rush wave is a sinusoidal wave that propagates along the walls of the tube. The governing equations for the proposed model are simplified by using the assumptions of long-wavelength and low Reynolds number. Exact solutions have been evaluated for velocity, temperature, and pressure gradient. Graphical results for the numerical values of the flow parameters, i.e. Hartmann number M, the solid volume fraction ϕ of the nanoparticles, Grashof number Gr, heat absorption parameter β, and radius of the inner tube ε, have been presented for the pressure difference, frictional forces, velocity profile, and temperature profile, and trapping phenomena have been discussed at the end of the article.
The Application of Electronic Video Techniques to Infrared and Ultraviolet Examinations
Authors: Richards GB 
Published: August 2015

Abstract
Ultraviolet (UV) and infrared (IR) radiation are used by most document examiners in the detection of alterations, erasures, substitutions, and secret writings; in the deciphering of charred or ancient documents; and in the viewing of obliterated text. The basic instrument used in conducting examinations of this sort is either the camera and photographic process or the electronic conversion tube. Most commercial equipment using these techniques has not been designed primarily for document examination but in most cases has been engineered for another purpose and then accommodated to document work. The purpose of the research reported in this paper was to use present-day technology to develop a system whereby the document examiner can conveniently take one, or, if desired, a hundred and one, questioned specimens and within a relatively short period of time observe the effects thereon of UV and IR radiation. To clarify the techniques used in this study, a few basic definitions and descriptions are being set forth.
A Comparison of Decomposition Products from Selected Burned Materials with Common Arson Accelerants
Authors: Clodfelter RW , Hueske EE 
Published: August 2015

Abstract
The purpose of this study was to determine whether or not the burning of certain building materials could produce products that could be confused with gasoline, diesel fuel, kerosene, or jet fuel. The subject of laboratory investigation of arson has been treated elsewhere in the literature [1], as have specific procedures for residue isolation [2–4] and identification [2,4,5]. A study of the amounts of hydrocarbons which may be obtained from charred materials has been made [6].
Rifle Wounds from High Velocity, Center-Fire Hunting Ammunition
Authors: DiMaio VJM , Zumwalt RE 
Published: August 2015

Abstract
Wounds from high velocity, center-fire rifles are relatively uncommon. Such wounds are markedly different from those caused by handguns or .22 rim-fire rifles. Injuries from pistol or .22 rim-fire rifle bullets are confined to tissue and organs directly in the wound track. In contrast, high velocity rifle bullets can injure structures without actually contacting them. Discussion of rifle wounds in the medical literature is concerned almost exclusively with injuries from military ammunition [1–3]. Wounds encountered by medical examiners, however, almost always involve hunting ammunition, whose design and construction is radically different from that of military ammunition. Because of these differences, the wounds produced by hunting ammunition are much more devastating.
The Use of Panoramic Radiographs for Comparisons in Cases of Identification
Authors: Schwartz S , Woolridge ED 
Published: August 2015

Abstract
The specific aim of this project was to determine the value of panoramic radiographs in cases of identification through a series of double blind comparisons and to formulate a comparative evaluation of the effectiveness of such interpretation. The study was conducted from a forensic approach through the use of all means of comparison of simulated “antemortem” to “postmortem” panoramic radiographs. These various means of comparison consisted of dental restorations (size, shape, location, and various materials), tooth morphology, anatomical landmarks, maxillary sinus configuration, foramina (mental, posterior palatine, mandibular, and incisive), bony trabeculation patterns, condylar morphology, mandibular canal morphology and location, morphology of the lower border of the mandible, third molar root formation, apical calcification, path of eruption evaluated through time intervals, hard tissue healing in old extraction sites, endodontically treated teeth, prostheses, malposed teeth, fixed orthodontic appliances, caries, coronal fractures, bone loss interpretation, and attrition.
Postmortem Stability of Prostatic Acid Phosphatase
Authors: Standefer JC , Street EW 
Published: August 2015

Abstract
Elevated prostatic acid phosphatase activities in samples collected from the vaginal area are commonly accepted as presumptive evidence for the presence of seminal fluid, and this enzyme activity has been used extensively as medicolegal evidence of carnal knowledge. The forensic significance of the acid phosphatase determination has increased as the number of vasectomized males has increased, since a positive acid phosphatase assay may be the only indication of the presence of seminal fluid when sperm are absent. If the acid phosphatase determination can contribute significantly to a forensic investigation of rape/murder cases it is imperative that the investigator make an accurate interpretation of the enzyme assay. The accuracy of this interpretation is in part related to the postmortem stability of acid phosphatase, both in situ and during specimen storage.
The Use and Abuse of the Rape Treatment Center
Authors: Schiff AF 
Published: August 2015

Abstract
From its inception in March 1956 until 1 Feb. 1974, the Dade County Medical Examiner's Office by statute [1] was charged with the medical investigation of all sex crimes, including rape, sodomy, and “any criminal sex offenses.” A system set up for this purpose, although slightly disorganized, became operational and appeared to function fairly well. The medical examiner's office performed three functions: managing a telephone answering and calling service for the various doctors on the panel, acting as a fiscal agent for the doctors in submitting their monthly bills to the proper county office, and serving as a central repository for the official reports. Office personnel, although regarding the unit as contrary to the usual functions of medicolegal death investigations, fulfilled their responsibilities.
The Use of Penile Plethysmography in a Medicolegal Evaluation
Authors: Rosen RC 
Published: August 2015

Abstract
Since the pioneering research of Masters and Johnson [1], it has been widely recognized that sexual arousal in the human male and female is associated with a clear pattern of physiological changes. During the first part of the sexual response cycle both men and women demonstrate a vasocongestive reaction in the genital organs. In the healthy adult male a penile erection is caused by the vascular engorgement of the spongy corpora of the penis [2]. In fact, the penis contains three cylindrical bodies of erectile tissue: the corpora cavernosa are the two dorsal cylinders, and the corpus spongiosum is the ventral cylinder through which passes the urethra. Each of these cylinders is composed of many small compartments separated by bands of smooth-muscle tissue. The arterioles supplying blood to these tissues are derived from the internal pudendal artery. Contractions of the muscles at the base of the penis appear to play a minimal role in the normal process of erection.
Questioned Documents and the Law: Handwriting Evidence in the Federal Court System
Authors: Costain JE 
Published: August 2015

Abstract
It is probably wise to define at the outset exactly what material this paper intends to discuss and, perhaps more importantly, what it will not discuss. At the very least, this practice should save the time of readers who already know (or don't care about) what is offered, and of those who search for information which is absent here. This paper does cover the origins, development, and present status of handwriting evidence in courts of the United States. What is not discussed includes the historical English precedents (except insofar as the English common law doctrines were adopted and explicated in U.S. court decisions), nor is there any discussion of developments in courts of the various states, nor is there any specific discussion of questioned document problems other than handwriting. These are all deserving topics, and let us hope they will be subjects of future research, but for now the topic will be limited strictly to the law of handwriting evidence applicable in the federal court system. Historical discussions, collections of citations, and surveys can be found in Refs 1 through 5.
Detection of Gunshot Residues on Hands by Scanning Electron Microscopy
Authors: Andrasko J , Maehly AC 
Published: August 2015

Abstract
Several methods have been developed by law enforcement agencies for determining whether or not an individual has recently handled or discharged a weapon. When a suspect has been apprehended following a shooting, detection of gunshot residues on his hands may provide significant evidence. The value of such a test is substantial in the investigation of alleged suicides, armed assaults, poaching, and other violations involving the use of firearms.
Application of Energy Dispersive X-Ray Spectroscopy in Fire Investigation
Authors: Covey EL 
Published: August 2015

Abstract
The classic examination of arson-related evidence in the forensic science laboratory strives to identify the particular accelerant employed by the perpetrator. Very often this is not possible because of the complete combustion of that accelerant, loss of the unburned accelerant because of evaporation, or loss in the mechanics of extinguishing the fire.
Dynamite Contamination of Blasting Cap Leg Wire Insulation

Infrared absorption spectrophotometry with a diamond cell sample holder is routinely employed in our laboratory for the examination of plastic wire insulation. The determination of the type of polymer used as insulation on electric blasting cap leg wire allows the manufacturer of the cap to be identified [1].
Gas Chromatography-Mass Spectrometry of Simulated Arson Residue Using Gasoline as an Accelerant
Authors: Mach MH 
Published: August 2015

Abstract
Because gasoline is the most common accelerant used in arson [1], the forensic scientist would like to be able to determine whether or not fire residues contain traces of gasoline. This is a difficult analytical problem since (1) gasoline is a complex mixture of hydrocarbons and special purpose additives and its composition varies unpredictably by brand and refinery runs, and (2) the changes in gasoline composition during the vagaries of a fire are not easy to predict.
Spectrophotometric Determination of Cyanide in Biological Materials
Authors: Pranitis PAF , Stolman A 
Published: August 2015

Abstract
The analytical methods currently used for the determination of cyanide in biological materials are the aeration method with the Prussian blue (ferricyanide) reaction [1] and some microdiffusion methods [2,3]. The methods are dependent on color reactions, the procedures are either time-consuming or cumbersome, and the results are of questionable accuracy. A method using the ultraviolet light absorption characteristics of a cyanonickelate complex was developed by Scoggins [4] for the accurate identification and quantitation of cyanide in aqueous solution. This method was found to be readily adaptable for the determination of cyanide in biofluids and tissues. The resulting cyanide-nickel complex which formed rapidly was found to be stable and could be quantitated readily. This paper presents a method to detect cyanide in biological materials by a spectrophotometric procedure.
A Review of State Trial Courts as Bureaucracies: A Study in Judicial Management
Authors: Slovenko R 
Published: August 2015

Abstract
It is an old story: the courts are behind in their work. What is wrong? A problem of management? This book opens with a passage from an address by Chief Justice Warren E. Burger of the United States Supreme Court delivered a few years ago at the annual meeting of the American Bar Association: “[T]oday, in the final third of this century, we are still trying to operate the courts with fundamentally the same basic methods, the same procedures and the same machinery that Roscoe Pound said were not good enough in 1906. In the supermarket age we are with few exceptions operating the courts with cracker-barrel, corner-grocer methods and equipment, vintage 1900. … More money and more judges alone is not the primary solution to the problem of the courts. Some of what is wrong is due to the failure to apply the techniques of modern business to the purely mechanical operation of the court—of modern record keeping and systems planning for handling the movement of the cases. Some is also due to antiquated and rigid procedures Which not only permit delay but encourage it.”
