Talking about Angelina – celebrity gossip on the Internet
Authors: Jerslev Anne 
Published: August 2014

Abstract
The article uses gossiping about Angelina Jolie on two different celebrity entertainment news sites in order to propose a contextual understanding of online gossip/talk. A contextual reading explains differences between types of talk on the sites in view of the different affordances of the sites, the sites’ particular profiles, the particular invitations to gossip (often in the form of paparazzi photographs), and the different types of users taking part in the discussions. The article discusses the two sites and argues that gossip on one site resembles oral gossip and is performed by a random group of visitors whereas on the other site, Jolie fans perform a double move when talking about Jolie: on the one hand they elevate her and on the other hand they include her in their extended family.
Cross-platform television: Superliveness, metadiscourse and complex audience orientation in a sports journalism production on the web
Authors: Lundell Åsa Kroon 
Published: August 2014

Abstract
This article presents a close analysis of interactions in cross-media formats with a specific focus on how television ‘is done’ on the web by established sports broadcasters who are used to producing traditional sports television. It will be argued that the web platform promotes significantly altered audience-oriented behaviours compared to traditional television, and that the web ultimately both calls for and produces a new kind of sociability in relation to audiences. It will be proposed in the discussion that this new kind of sociability will have an increasing impact also on how traditional television ‘is done’. The article makes use of data from the sports genre that is normally associated with ‘lighter entertainment’. Therefore the results may not be immediately applicable to how other types of journalistic genres tackle the communicative challenges of new media. However, it will be argued that sports journalism may well be thought of as a frontrunner when it comes to adapting to increasingly ‘sociable’ communicative modes of address. The analysis of web interactions focuses around three overarching audience orientations that are promoted in the web context: superliveness, metadiscourse and complex audience orientation(s). Taken together, these orientations constitute ‘a new kind of sociability’.
A telephone between us: Enabling/disabling talk on P4 i P1’s phone-in Tværs
Authors: Abildgaard Mette Simonsen 
Published: August 2014

Abstract
This article presents a study of the Danish phone-in radio programme Tværs over the 1973–1996 period, during which Tværs was a part of the popular youth programme P4 i P1. It explores the character of talk on Tværs with a focus on the way talk was enabled or disabled. The study is based on a large sample comprising 167.5 hours of audio material from P4 i P1. A curated selection of empirical material from the sample, in which distinctive enablers and disablers for talk on Tværs were displayed, was chosen through systematic coding. In a qualitative analysis of this range of examples from Tværs’ mediated telephone conversations, the study identifies four main enablers/disablers for talk on Tværs (the host, the telephone, time and distance) and explores the conditions for listener access to the phone-in as shaped by these factors. Additionally, the article critically questions these conditions in relation to Tværs’ own self-understanding as presented by its hosts Tine Bryld and Emil Klausbøl.
Talking with TV shows: Simultaneous conversations between users and producers in the second-screen television production Voice
Authors: Laursen Ditte , Sandvik Kjetil 
Published: August 2014

Abstract
User interaction with radio and television programmes is not a new thing. However, with new cross-media production concepts such as X Factor and Voice, this is changing dramatically. The second-screen logic of these productions encourages viewers, along with TV’s traditional one-way communication mode, to communicate on interactive (dialogue-enabling) devices such as laptops, smartphones and tablets. Using the TV show Voice as our example, this article shows how the technological and situational set-up of the production invites viewers to engage in new ways of interaction and communication. More specifically, the article demonstrates how online comments posted on the day of Voice’s 2012 season finale can be grouped into four basic action types: (1) Invitation to consume content, (2) Request for participation, (3) Request for collaboration and (4) Online commenting. These action types express on the one hand the way in which Voice addresses its audience (i.e. through traditional one-way, one-to-many communication) and on the other hand the ways in which viewers respond by participating and collaborating (i.e., through two-way, one-to-one, one-to-many and many-to-many communication).
Sherlock fans talk: Mediatized talk on tumblr
Authors: Petersen Line Nybro 
Published: August 2014

Abstract
In this article I propose that we can understand talk and conversation in Sherlock (2010) fandom on the micro-blogging site tumblr in three ways: (1) talk through appropriation, (2) talk through interpretation and (3) talk through imitation, and that we can see these through examples of mediatized talk. Sherlock is a popular 90-minute BBC TV series about Arthur Conan Doyle’s famous detective, Sherlock Holmes and his assistant, John Watson, in a contemporary setting. I apply mediatization theory to analyse how specific media logic and affordances shape the way in which fans talk and interact on this social media platform. Furthermore, the analysis includes theory from fan studies and audience studies in order to understand the cultural logic of fan communities, as mediatization is understood as a non-linear, dual process of transformation. Fans use textual narratives, fan-made narratives, popular memes and role playing when carrying out conversations. When these fan practices are intersected with the media logic and affordances of tumblr, conversations become complex, textually layered and use a variety of technological expressions, and, as such, these conversations become mediatized.
In the Shadow of No Towers: The anxiety of expression and images of past trauma in Art Spiegelman’s graphic novel
Authors: Findlay Laura 
Published: August 2014

Abstract
This article will examine the anxiety of expression and images of past trauma in Art Spiegelman’s graphic novel In the Shadow of No Towers (2004) and its connection to Maus I and Maus II (1986 and 1991). It will analyse the strategies that Spiegelman adopts to deal with trauma, and the problems of representing complex events and narratives. Maus and In the Shadow of No Towers have at their core an anxiety of about the nature of expression; the need to represent the event and the resulting trauma while acknowledging the impossibility of ever fully communicating it. This raises some questions about relations between the present and the past in these texts and the use of highly emotive imagery to make personal and political points about the aftermath of 9/11.

‘Graphic Resurgence’: The return of the early Gothic comic strip in trans-medial discourse
Authors: Jones David Annwn 
Published: August 2014

Abstract
Though those types of publications that are popularly called the Gothic comic book and Gothic graphic novel comprise one of the graphic medium’s most successful genres and, though celebrated examples of the work such as Neil Gaiman’s creations and David Finch’s Batman The Dark Knight series (2012–) have begun to feature amongst topics for Gothic Studies conferences and anthologies, there seems as yet to be considerable critical amnesia about the genre’s origins, the nineteenth-century sequential strip in general and their relations with contemporaneous Gothic publications. This study starts with a comparison of the depiction of a monstrous Gothic anti-hero in a narrative strip from the late 1840s with a similar celebrated figure from a 1990s Goth publication as a way of questioning assumptions about the exclusively formative role of American 1950s comic books in this context. This study then provides both a general overview of a vast and often overlooked field of graphic production pre-1900 and, in places, a frame-by-frame analysis of groundbreaking graphic techniques used by Gothic nineteenth-century artists. As well as discussing works as various as Joseph Franz von Götz’s Lenardo and Blandine (1783), Gustave Doré’s History of Holy Russia (1854), the Gothic graphic art of William Makepeace Thackeray and Rodolph Töpffer, Wilhelm Busch and G. Montbard’s The Legend of John Belin (1874), my study seeks to reinstate the importance of these works of Gothic sequential visual art in relation to recent graphic novels and starts to define exciting possibilities for a synergetic interface between Comic Strip Studies and Gothic Studies.
Deep histories of the new world: Oral tradition and the fluid human mind
Authors: Kelley-Galin Deborah 
Published: August 2014

Abstract
Focusing, in part, on the influence of Jurassic-era seas on the philosophical beliefs of the Hopi and Zuni cultures of the American Southwest, the article investigates the fluid cognitive processes of the human mind and methodically investigates the presence of historical content in works from oracy-based peoples. Formal analyses of the embedded data encoded in historical oral narratives are provided and are based on Barber and Barber’s mytho-linguistic framework. The application of Roger C. Echo-Hawk’s methodology for the assessment of narrative works that can contribute to cultural affiliation in consultations relating to the Native American Graves Protection Repatriation Act is considered as a possible model for similar change in the areas of assessing the relevance of material culture. The necessity of creating a similar critical framework for evaluations of the visual arts of ancient pre-historic era in the United States in keeping with the trend in narrative studies is discussed in support of the development of ‘period eye’ perspectives on which future objective studies may be based. The valid contexts an approximated period eye perspective can provide for more authentic replications of complex metaphorical relationships and cosmographies on the visual plane is demonstrated in the article’s final drawings.
Fathom: A sonic surface bordering underwater and acoustic worlds
Authors: Grant Jane , Matthias John , Honywill Simon 
Published: August 2014

Abstract
Fathom is a sound installation by Jane Grant and John Matthias, which was commissioned by the River Tamar Project and was premiered at the Factory Cooperage Building in Royal William Yard, Plymouth, UK in September 2013. Visitors entering the installation were able to hear live and edited sound recorded underwater in Plymouth Sound, a large estuarine body of water from which the Plym, Tamar and Hamaoze Rivers flow into the sea. Six-step ladders in the centre of the installation space surrounded by several additional speakers enabled visitors to climb out of the underwater sonic environment, above the fathom, and hear live acoustic sound relayed by microphones above the water. The artists worked with a team including production manager, Simon Honywill and Martin Audio to create a sonic ‘surface’ 6ft above the ground to enable this to happen. This article will describe how Fathom was created and, in particular, will focus on how the creation of the sonic surface affected the way in which the visiting public interacted with the work.
Embodied semiotic artefacts: On the role of the skin as a semiotic niche
Authors: Bitarello Breno , Queiroz João 
Published: August 2014

Abstract
The skin can be described as a niche structured by semiotic artefacts (tattoos) that work as symbolic–indexical devices (dicisigns). New biocompatible technologies responsive to organic and environmental variations change the role of the skin as a semiotic niche. New devices are transforming the skin into a niche of interactive interfaces. In this article we introduce a variety of techno-scientific artefacts, which are readily available, and their main characteristics. We are interested in the recent proliferation of devices based on biotechnologies that can be coupled to the body, especially epithelial (superficial or invasive), and how they change what we know as ‘embodied communication’.
High Accuracy Method for Magnetohydrodynamics System in Elsässer Variables
Authors: Wilson Nicholas , Labovsky Alexander , Trenchea Catalin 
Published: August 2014

Abstract
A method has been developed recently by the third author, that allows for decoupling of the evolutionary full magnetohydrodynamics (MHD) system in the Elsässer variables. The method entails the implicit discretization of the subproblem terms and the explicit discretization of coupling terms, and was proven to be unconditionally stable. In this paper we build on that result by introducing a high-order accurate deferred correction method, which also decouples the MHD system.
We perform the full numerical analysis of the method, proving the unconditional stability and second order accuracy of the two-step method. We also use a test problem to verify numerically the claimed convergence rate.
The Adsorption of Undesirable Impurities from Sunflower Oil on the Granulated Sorbents Based on Kaolin Clay
Authors: Prokof’ev Valery Y. , Razgovorov Pavel B. , Gordina Natalya E. 
Published: August 2014

Abstract
Modifying processes of clay of Veselovskoe deposits with acetic acid (AA) and liquid sodium glass and adsorption of undesirable impurities from sunflower oil on granulated sorbent in a dynamic mode were studied. It was shown that the modification of clay with AA increases the number of Brönsted sites and yields granulated sorbent with a mesopore structure. The composition of clay and liquid glass is characterized by the basic sites. The composition of the clay modified with AA and the liquid glass produces all kinds of surface sites and yields the bipore structure. It was established that the modification of clay with liquid glass provides highest degree of adsorption of the fatty acid (84.6–87.7%), and the modification of clay with AA leads to increasing adsorption of the peroxide compounds (70.0–81.7%). Both acid and alkaline modification of clay allows increasing the phosphorated substances extraction degree to 77.2–89.4%.
Evaluation of long-term stability and degradation on polycarbonate based plastic glass
Authors: Ito Mikiya , Masuda Yoshihiro , Nagai Kazukiyo 
Published: August 2014

Abstract
Polycarbonate (PC) is mainly used as plastic glass in the industrial field. PC has many advantages such as light weight and high impact strength as compared to inorganic glass. However, the long-term stability of PC through the service life has not been fully examined. The authors analyzed the degradation behavior of PC glass through long-term artificial weathering conditions. The PC glass became yellowish through artificial weathering; however, the mechanical strength, for example, the flexural strength and the impact strength, were sufficient for its use as actual window glass of the public transportation. Moreover, improved PC is expected to have a longer service life as compared to ordinary PC. In addition, the evaluation of the degradation of PC-based plastic glass was studied with use of color measurement.

AbstractPhosphoinositides are a class of phospholipids generated by the action of phosphoinositide kinases with key regulatory functions in eukaryotic cells. Here, we present the atomic structure of phosphatidylinositol 4‐kinase type IIα (PI4K IIα), in complex with ATP solved by X‐ray crystallography at 2.8 Å resolution. The structure revealed a non‐typical kinase fold that could be divided into N‐ and C‐lobes with the ATP binding groove located in between. Surprisingly, a second ATP was found in a lateral hydrophobic pocket of the C‐lobe. Molecular simulations and mutagenesis analysis revealed the membrane binding mode and the putative function of the hydrophobic pocket. Taken together, our results suggest a mechanism of PI4K IIα recruitment, regulation, and function at the membrane.
No Detectable Effect of the DNA Methyltransferase DNMT2 on Drosophila Meiotic Recombination
Authors: Heil Caiti S Smukowski 
Published: August 2014

Abstract
Epigenetics is known to be involved in recombination initiation, but the effects of specific epigenetic marks like DNA methylation on recombination are relatively unknown. Studies in Arabidopsis and the fungus Ascobolus immersus suggest that DNA methylation may suppress recombination rates and/or alter its distribution across the genome; however, these patterns appear complex, and more direct inquiries are needed. Unlike other organisms, Drosophila only have one known DNA methyltransferase, DNMT2, which is expressed in the ovaries and historically has been thought to be responsible for limited genomic DNA methylation. To test for a role of DNMT2 on the frequency and distribution of recombination, I compared recombination rates between Dnmt2 −/− and Dnmt2 +/− Drosophila melanogaster individuals in two euchromatic regions and one heterochromatic region across the genome. I failed to detect an altered pattern of recombination rate in the absence of DNMT2 in all regions surveyed, and conclude that other epigenetic effects are regulating recombination initiation in Drosophila.
A Method for Sporulating Budding Yeast Cells That Allows for Unbiased Identification of Kinase Substrates Using Stable Isotope Labeling by Amino Acids in Cell Culture

Published: August 2014

AbstractQuantitative proteomics has been widely used to elucidate many cellular processes. In particular, stable isotope labeling by amino acids in cell culture (SILAC) has been instrumental in improving the quality of data generated from quantitative high-throughput proteomic studies. SILAC uses the cell’s natural metabolic pathways to label proteins with isotopically heavy amino acids. Incorporation of these heavy amino acids effectively labels a cell’s proteome, allowing the comparison of cell cultures treated under different conditions. SILAC has been successfully applied to a variety of model organisms including yeast, fruit flies, plants, and mice to look for kinase substrates as well as protein–protein interactions. In budding yeast, several kinases are known to play critical roles in different aspects of meiosis. Therefore, the use of SILAC to identify potential kinase substrates would be helpful in the understanding the specific mechanisms by which these kinases act. Previously, it has not been possible to use SILAC to quantitatively study the phosphoproteome of meiotic Saccharomyces cerevisiae cells, because yeast cells sporulate inefficiently after pregrowth in standard synthetic medium. In this study we report the development of a synthetic, SILAC-compatible, pre-sporulation medium (RPS) that allows for efficient sporulation of S. cerevisiae SK1 diploids. Pre-growth in RPS supplemented with heavy amino acids efficiently labels the proteome, after which cells proceed relatively synchronously through meiosis, producing highly viable spores. As proof of principle, SILAC experiments were able to identify known targets of the meiosis-specific kinase Mek1.

Published: August 2014

ABSTRACTMore than 50% of total input energy is wasted as heat in various industrial processes. If we could harness a small fraction of the waste heat while satisfying the economic demands of cost versus performance, then thermoelectric (TE) power generation could bring substantial positive impacts. To meet these demands single-crystal semiconductor nanowire networks have been investigated as a method to achieve advanced TE devices because of their predicted large reduction in thermal conductivity and increase in power factor.To further our goal of developing practical and economical TE devices, we designed and developed a material platform that combined a semiconductor nanowire network and a semiconductor thin film integrated directly on a mechanically flexible metallic substrate. We assessed the potential of this platform by using indium phosphide (InP) nanowire networks and a doped poly-silicon (poly-Si) thin film combined on copper sheets. InP nanowires were grown by metal organic chemical vapor deposition (MOCVD). In the nanowire network, InP nanowires were grown in three-dimensional networks in which electrical charges and heat travel under the influence of their characteristic scattering mechanisms over a distance much longer than the mean length of the constituent nanowires. Subsequently, plasma-assisted CVD was utilized to form a poly-Si thin film to prevent electrical shorting when an ohmic copper top contact was made. An additional facet to this design is the utilization of multiple materials to address the various temperature ranges at which each material is most efficient at heat-to-energy conversion. The utilization of multiple materials could enable the enhancement of total power generation for a given temperature gradient. We investigated the use of poly-Si thin films combined with InP nanowires to enhance TE properties. TE power production and challenges of a large area nanowire device on a flexible metallic substrate were presented.

Published: August 2014

ABSTRACTAbsorption, scattering and fluorescent properties of several different types of nanodiamond samples are measured to characterize them for various applications. Two different methods, spectrophotometry and photothermal spectroscopy were used to measure absorption properties of nanodiamonds suspended in aqueous solutions. Photothermal spectroscopy provides the advantage of measuring absorption of photoactive nanodiamonds with high-sensitivity. Spectral fluorescence properties of nanodiamond samples were studied using a commercial spectrofluorometer and a home-built inverted microscope integrated with a light-sensitive imaging spectrograph. Characteristic fluorescence spectrum of nitrogen-vacancy defects in single diamond nanocrystals was obtained using the light-sensitive instrument.
