Border-crossing with Borau: At home, abroad
Authors: D’Lugo Marvin , Kinder Marsha 
Published: October 2014

Abstract
This special issue pays tribute to José Luis Borau’s unique and innovative career in Spanish film spanning more than four decades. It assesses his influence on the larger development of a modern Spanish cinema in national and transnational contexts. Throughout his multifaceted career, Borau was instrumental in shaping a modern cinematic language that helped bring Spanish cinema international acclaim. His unique contributions to Spanish and international cinema include landmark films like the Oscar-nominated black comedy My Dear Señorita (1971), co-scripted with director Jaime de Armiñán; B Must Die (1974); Furtivos (1975); La Sabina (1979); and On the Line (1984). Borau’s collaborations on films with his former students from the National Film School (Iván Zuelueta, Antonio Drove, Manuel Gutiérrez Aragón) would assure his influence on future generations of Spanish audiences. His more recent television series Celia (1991) and Goya award-winning film Leo (2001) confirm Borau’s range as a uniquely gifted film author.
Recuerdos De Un Testigo Exiliado
Authors: Gubern Román 
Published: October 2014

Abstract
In November 1975, José Luis Borau initiated a strategy to promote the American distribution of his award-winning film Furtivos/Poachers by enlisting the support of noted Spanish film historian Román Gubern to present the film in Los Angeles to a gathering of members of the Hollywood press. By chance, the screening on 20 November coincided with the death of Francisco Franco, which gave a symbolic aura to the screening. The momentous date marked the beginning of a long friendship and scholarly dialogue between the two men. As a witness to Borau’s American career, Gubern brings to light the film-maker’s multifaceted efforts to realize his ambition of becoming part of the Hollywood film industry, including his plan for a remake of his Oscar-nominated film, My Dear Señorita (1971). Gubern recounts Borau’s scholarly efforts to document the presence of other Spaniards in the Hollywood industry, which would eventually culminate in the publication of his Diccionariodel Cine Español (1998).
José Luis Borau, un cineasta furtivo
Authors: Vergés Rosa 
Published: October 2014

Abstract
The objective of this article is to demonstrate that under the deceptive appearance of realism, Borau’s cinema reveals a rich layer of symbolism rooted in intellectual depth. The article begins by reviewing Borau’s unique contributions promoting film culture in Spain through his activities as president of the Spanish Film Academy (AACC). It then focusses on Borau’s most emblematic film Furtivos (Poachers, 1975), which, among its other qualities, also inscribes the features of the multifaceted personality of the famed Aragonese film-maker.
When we put ourselves ‘on the line’
Authors: Kovacs Steven 
Published: October 2014

Abstract
An eye-witness account of the preparation, production, post-production and release of José Luis Borau’s On the Line (Río abajo, 1984) by the American producer of the film, Steven Kovacs. This article details the relationship between Borau and Kovacs and the evolution of the production from screenplay to finished film, including the way decisions were made and the problems that plagued the production. In telling the narrative, the author attempts to evaluate Borau’s intention, vision, and directorial style.
‘Niña somebody’: Bringing Elena Fortún’s Celia to Spanish television
Authors: Vernon Kathleen M. 
Published: October 2014

Abstract
In much of his varied career, José Luis Borau vowed he would never work on television, undertake the adaptation of a literary work or direct a historical film. Yet, in 1991, in collaboration with his long-time friend and novelist Carmen Martín Gaite, Borau took on the task of producing and directing a television series based on the popular children’s books of Republican-era writer Elena Fortún. Told from the perspective of the precocious 7-year-old protagonist Celia Gálvez, the series offers a glimpse into the world of the pre–Civil War Madrileñan bourgeoisie. Although the child of privilege, Celia insistently questions accepted hierarchies, from gender roles and class divisions to the dominant role of religion. Born from Borau’s conviction that children deserve the best in cultural offerings, the series also marked an opportunity to revisit their own childhoods and childhood readings for the director and his co-scriptwriter Martín Gaite.
On improvements of Opial-type inequalities
Authors: Changjian Zhao , Cheung Wing Sum 
Published: October 2014

Abstract
In the present paper, we establish some new Opial-type integral
inequalities in two variables. The results in special cases yield
some of the interrelated results on Godunova–Levin's and
Mitrinović–Pečarić's inequalities. These results
provide new estimates on inequalities of this type.
q-nonuniform difference linear control systems
Authors: Bangerezako Gaspard 
Published: October 2014

Abstract
We introduce q-nonuniform difference systems and propose q-nonuniform versions of some basic
results of complete controllability and observability of linear
systems such as criterions of controllability and observability,
the q-duality theorem. An optimality necessary condition is also given for the case of
the Ramsey model of economic growth.
Mereological Principles in Metaphysics
Authors: Ujvári Márta 
Published: October 2014

Abstract
The relevance of mereology for metaphysics is a perennial theme. In particular, the part-whole relation is applied recently to colocated qua-objects of different sortals: say, a statue and its constituting piece of clay. K. Koslicki (2008. The structure of objects. Oxford: Oxford University Press) claims that only the lump is part of the statue; moreover, its proper part, but not vice versa since the statue has an immaterial part not shared by the lump. She backs her claim by appealing to the weak supplementation principle (WSP). M. Donnelly (2011. “Using mereological principles to support metaphysics.” The philosophical quarterly 61:225–46) is critical with the asymmetry argument. I point out that the asymmetry argument trades on the equivocity of the very notion of “part”. In the Aristotelian-scholastic tradition Koslicki’s neo-Aristotelianism appeals to, “part” shows up with various meanings not all of them admitting the mereological reading of “part” her argument hinges on. With her argument, the absurd consequence ensues that the lump can also be shown to have an immaterial part not shared by the statue. I show that the presumed immaterial parts cannot be proper parts of composites, only their improper parts. Thus they fail to fall under (WSP). My ultimate goal is to disentangle the mereological and the metaphysical threads by showing what goes with what without taking sides either with the mereologist or the traditional metaphysician.
Toenail as a biomarker of heavy metal exposure via drinking water: a systematic review
Authors: Ab Razak Nurul Hafiza , Praveena Sarva Mangala , Hashim Zailina 
Published: October 2014

AbstractToenail is metabolic end product of the skin, which can provide information about heavy metal accumulation in human cells. Slow growth rates of toenail can represent heavy metal exposure from 2 to 12 months before the clipping. The toenail is a non-invasive biomarker that is easy to collect and store and is stable over time. In this systematic review, the suitability of toenail as a long-term biomarker was reviewed, along with the analysis and validation of toenail and confounders to heavy metal. This systematic review has included 30 articles chosen from a total of 132 articles searched from online electronic databases like Pubmed, Proquest, Science Direct, and SCOPUS. Keywords used in the search included “toenail”, “biomarker”, “heavy metal”, and “drinking water”. Heavy metal in toenail can be accurately analyzed using an ICP-MS instrument. The validation of toenail heavy metal concentration data is very crucial; however, the Certified Reference Material (CRM) for toenail is still unavailable. Usually, CRM for hair is used in toenail studies. Confounders that have major effects on heavy metal accumulation in toenail are dietary intake of food and supplement, smoking habit, and overall health condition. This review has identified the advantages and limitations of using toenail as a biomarker for long-term exposure, which can help future researchers design a study on heavy metal exposure using toenail.
Die Grünen und Gorbatschow
Authors: Wentker Hermann 
Published: October 2014

Vorspann
Ende der 1980er Jahre erreichte die „Gorbimanie“ in der Bundesrepublik Deutschland ihren Höhepunkt. Der Generalsekretär des Zentralkomitees der Kommunistischen Partei der Sowjetunion galt als Hoffnungsträger für ein Ende des Kalten Kriegs und eine Überwindung der Teilung Europas. Hermann Wentker zeigt auf, warum gerade die Grünen Michail Gorbatschow zurückhaltender begegneten als andere politische Kräfte in der alten Bundesrepublik, er erklärt, weshalb sie in ihrer Einschätzung zwischen Zustimmung und Kritik schwankten, und er fragt danach, welche Rolle die Auseinandersetzungen zwischen den „Realos“ und den „Fundis“ unter den Grünen dabei spielten.
Demokratie und Wirtschaftspolitik in der Weimarer Republik
Authors: Müller Tim B. 
Published: October 2014

Vorspann
Weimar, das lange von der Forschungsagenda verschwunden war, erlebt neuerdings eine Art Renaissance. Im Mittelpunkt steht dabei nicht mehr das Problem einer „Demokratie ohne Demokraten“, die fast unweigerlich zum Scheitern verurteilt war. Der Fokus richtet sich jetzt auf die gegenläufigen Kräfte - auf die zunehmende Zahl der Demokraten und ihre vielversprechenden Reformkonzepte, die immer mehr Anklang fanden und so oder so ähnlich auch in den USA und anderen europäischen Staaten diskutiert wurden. Weimar, so Tim B. Müller, einer der profiliertesten Verfechter dieser These, war auf einem guten Weg. Dass er nicht zur Konsolidierung führte, lag an der Katastrophe der Weltwirtschaftskrise und daran, dass zur falschen Zeit die falschen Männer an der Regierung waren. Bleibt diese These unwidersprochen?
Serum Bilirubin and Bilirubin/Albumin Ratio as Predictors of Bilirubin Encephalopathy
Authors: Iskander Iman , Gamaleldin Rasha , El Houchi Salma , El Shenawy Amira , Seoud Iman , El Gharbawi Nesrin , Abou-Youssef Hazem , Aravkin Aleksandr , Wennberg Richard P. 
Published: October 2014

BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVE:Bilirubin/albumin ratio (B/A) may provide a better estimate of free bilirubin than total serum bilirubin (TSB), thus improving identification of newborns at risk for bilirubin encephalopathy. The objective of the study was to identify thresholds and compare specificities of TSB and B/A in detecting patients with acute and posttreatment auditory and neurologic impairment.METHODS:A total of 193 term/near-term infants, admitted for severe jaundice to Cairo University Children’s Hospital, were evaluated for neurologic status and auditory impairment (automated auditory brainstem response), both at admission and posttreatment by investigators blinded to laboratory results. The relationships of TSB and B/A to advancing stages of neurotoxicity were compared by using receiver operating characteristic curves.RESULTS:TSB and B/A ranged from 17 to 61 mg/dL and 5.4 to 21.0 mg/g, respectively; 58 (30%) of 193 subjects developed acute bilirubin encephalopathy, leading to kernicterus in 35 infants (13 lethal). Auditory impairment was identified in 86 (49%) of 173 infants at admission and in 22 of 128 at follow-up. In the absence of clinical risk factors, no residual neurologic or hearing impairment occurred unless TSB exceeded 31 mg/dl. However, transient auditory impairment occurred at lower TSB and B/A (22.9 mg/dL and 5.7 mg/g, respectively). Intervention values of TSB and B/A set at high sensitivity to detect different stages of neurotoxicity had nearly the same specificity.CONCLUSIONS:Both TSB and B/A are strong predictors of neurotoxicity, but B/A does not improve prediction over TSB alone. Threshold values detecting all affected patients (100% sensitivity) increase with advancing severity of neurotoxicity.
Circumcision of Privately Insured Males Aged 0 to 18 Years in the United States
Authors: Hart-Cooper Geoffrey D. , Tao Guoyu , Stock Jeffrey A. , Hoover Karen W. 
Published: October 2014

BACKGROUND:Male circumcision confers protection against HIV, sexually transmitted infections, and urinary tract infections. Compared with circumcision of postneonates (&gt;28 days), circumcision of neonates is associated with fewer complications and usually performed with local rather than general anesthesia. We assessed circumcision of commercially insured males during the neonatal or postneonatal period.METHODS:We analyzed 2010 MarketScan claims data from commercial health plans, using procedural codes to identify circumcisions performed on males aged 0 to 18 years, and diagnostic codes to assess clinical indications for the procedure. Among circumcisions performed in the first year of life, we estimated rates for neonates and postneonates. We estimated the percentage of circumcisions by age among males who had circumcisions in 2010, and the mean payment for neonatal and postneonatal procedures.RESULTS:We found that 156 247 circumcisions were performed, with 146 213 (93.6%) in neonates and 10 034 (6.4%) in postneonates. The neonatal circumcision rate was 65.7%, and 6.1% of uncircumcised neonates were circumcised by their first birthday. Among postneonatal circumcisions, 46.6% were performed in males younger than 1 year and 25.1% were for nonmedical indications. The mean payment was $285 for a neonatal and $1885 for a postneonatal circumcision.CONCLUSIONS:The large number of nonmedical postneonatal circumcisions suggests that neonatal circumcision might be a missed opportunity for these boys. Delay of nonmedical circumcision results in greater risk for the child, and a more costly procedure. Discussions with parents early in pregnancy might help them make an informed decision about circumcision of their child.
Direct Antiglobulin Titer Strength and Hyperbilirubinemia
Authors: Kaplan Michael , Hammerman Cathy , Vreman Hendrik J. , Wong Ronald J. , Stevenson David K. 
Published: October 2014

BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES:
We recently demonstrated that direct antiglobulin titer (DAT) positive, blood group A or B newborns born to group O mothers had a high incidence of hyperbilirubinemia, attributable to increased hemolysis. We reanalyzed our data asking whether increasing DAT strength plays a modulating role in the pathophysiology of the hemolysis and hyperbilirubinemia.

METHODS:
Data from previously published DAT-positive, ABO-heterospecific neonates were analyzed for hyperbilirubinemia and hemolysis according to strength of DAT. DAT was measured by using a gel agglutination technique and reported as values ranging from DAT ± to DAT ++++. Hemolysis was evaluated by blood carboxyhemoglobin corrected for inspired, ambient CO (COHbc), and expressed as percent total hemoglobin (tHb). Hyperbilirubinemia was defined as any plasma total bilirubin value &gt;95th percentile on the hour-specific nomogram.

RESULTS:
Hyperbilirubinemia was more prevalent in those with DAT ++ readings (16 of 20, 80%) than those both DAT ± (37 of 87 [42.5%], relative risk: 1.88, 95% confidence interval: 1.35–2.61) and DAT + (32 of 56 [57.1%], relative risk: 1.40, 95% confidence interval: 1.02–1.92). COHbc values were higher for those with DAT ++ (1.45 ± 0.49% tHb [mean ± SD]) than those DAT ± (1.20 ± 0.37% tHb, P = .01) or DAT + (1.22 ± 0.37% tHb, P = .02).

CONCLUSIONS:
DAT ++ readings were associated with a higher incidence of hyperbilirubinemia and higher COHbc values than DAT ± or DAT + counterparts. Increasing DAT strength may be a modulator of hemolysis and hyperbilirubinemia in ABO-heterospecific neonates. DAT strength, and not merely DAT presence or absence, should be taken into consideration in the management of ABO-heterospecific newborns.
Hyperspectral imaging of polymer/fullerene blends
Authors: Torreggiani Armida , Tinti Francesca , Savoini Alberto , Melchiorre Michele , Po Riccardo , Camaioni Nadia 
Published: October 2014

AbstractThe effectiveness of a hyperspectral imaging system integrated on an enhanced dark-field microscope for probing the microscale morphology of model poly(3- hexylthiopene): [6,6]-phenyl-C61- butyric acid methyl ester (P3HT:PCBM) blends is demonstrated. This non-contact technique provides both spectral and spatial information in one measurement, providing an effective mapping of the presence and location of the component materials in the investigated P3HT:PCBM blends spincoated over different substrates (zinc oxide, poly(3,4- ethylenedioxythiophene):poly(styrenesulfonate). The hyperspectral analysis accounts for the micro-scale morphology of P3HT:PCBM blends, even in case of high film roughness, and the quantitative determination of blend components reveals a preferential accumulation of the lowenergy material (P3HT) at the interface with air, confirming the findings reported with other mapping techniques
Les effets de l'errance sur le langage adolescent
Authors: Benhaïm Michèle 
Published: October 2014

Ce texte rend compte d’une clinique très contemporaine de l’adolescence et tente, à travers les blessures faites au langage par les adolescents, de conceptualiser des notions telles que « nouvelle économie familiale », « détresse maternelle primaire », perversification du lien alteritaire, déhistoricisation, défaillance du clinicien. Le transfert, dans « une proximité suffisamment bonne », demeure le lieu possible d’une rectification du rapport du sujet au réel.
Émergence et maniement du « genre » dans la clinique, de la substance à l'objet
Authors: Bourseul Vincent 
Published: October 2014

Que faisons-nous du « genre » dans la clinique ? Comment émerge-t-il et quel maniement, quelle pratique pouvons-nous en avoir ? À partir d’éléments cliniques, cet article vise à décrire les emplois du genre par les sujets et à éclairer l’offre qu’ils constituent pour l’analyste, s’il veut bien les considérer comme des pistes thérapeutiques. De la substance à l’objet, le genre interroge notre approche de l’addiction, de l’incorporation, de l’édification du corps, à l’occasion d’un remaniement profond. S’ouvrent alors des dimensions et des registres, tantôt imaginaire et aussi symbolique, où l’analyste peut accueillir des constructions psychiques œuvrant à l’aménagement de la sexuation du sujet, via le genre comme vecteur.
Pratique de la structure : le diagnostic différentiel selon l'enseignement de Jacques Lacan
Authors: Lippi Silvia 
Published: October 2014

Nous analyserons l’évolution du concept de structure en psychanalyse et ses différentes approches, en montrant son importance et sa spécificité dans la clinique psychanalytique. La structure permet un abord particulier du diagnostic, « structure » à ne pas confondre avec les notions de « système », « catégorie » et « nosographie ». Un diagnostic structural n’est pas différent du travail normal de la cure, c’est-à-dire de sa direction. En ce sens, le concept de structure et celui de signifiant sont inséparables, comme le montrent la linguistique et l’anthropologie structurales, point de départ de la théorie de la structure chez Lacan. Lacan se détachera du structuralisme, en considérant la structure comme un ensemble fermé qui inclut sa limite et qui, à partir de sa limite, s’ouvre, et dont le sujet est partie intégrante.
Réformer en présence de veto players
Authors: Hervier Louise 
Published: October 2014

Cet article analyse les réformes des assurances chômage dans les années 2000 en France et en Allemagne, sous l’angle du pouvoir des syndicats. Il se demande comment et pourquoi, dans ces deux pays bismarckiens où ils étaient réputés veto players , ils ont laissé advenir des réformes qui les affaiblissent dans leur rôle de gestion et leur capacité à orienter les réformes de ce secteur. Cette contribution met en évidence les mécanismes explicatifs spécifiques et communs de chaque côté du Rhin, et montre comment les stratégies politiques se combinent aux divisions syndicales et aux nouvelles alliances entre certains partenaires sociaux et les gouvernements pour expliquer la faisabilité de ces réformes. Elle souligne enfin que ces réformes de structure, dites aussi « constitutives », sont très peu étudiées alors qu’elles sont déterminantes pour les réformes « distributives » ou allocatives (Lowi, 1972) ou encore les mesures d’activation qu’elles permettent d’introduire ou d’amplifier par la suite.
La culture française de l'intelligence
Authors: Harbulot Christian 
Published: October 2014

La réforme du renseignement qui a été entamée en France depuis une vingtaine d’années, a modifié la perception des élites à l’ égard d’une fonction essentielle dans la gouvernance d’un État. Pour autant, cette réforme ne répond pas à tous les défis du monde actuel. Trois grands sujets sont absents de cette problématique : le rôle du renseignement dans l’accroissement d’une politique de puissance, l’éventualité de l’ affaiblissement des États-Unis dans la sécurité du monde occidental, l’importance du contenu dans les rapports de force informationnels générés par le monde immatériel.
La géopolitique de l'Asie-Pacifique et l'émergence de la Chine
Authors: Hamel Tewfik 
Published: October 2014

Astucieusement, les États-Unis ont célébré la fin de la Guerre froide comme la « fin de l’histoire » et la fin de la géographie. Mais de telle manière qu’aucune théorie ne tient en dehors de la pratique, qu’aucune stratégie ne tient en dehors de la géographie. En d’autres termes, la mondialisation n’a pas détaché les interactions des États de la géographie. Et dans le moment unipolaire, la mondialisation consiste à redéfinir l’ordre international de manière à préserver leur primauté. Et dans cette entreprise hégémonique, certaines régions sont plus critiques que d’autres. La conception américaine de la sécurité nationale, axée sur la centralité stratégique de l’Eurasie, est basée sur des impératifs à la fois géopolitiques et géoéconomiques. Le besoin stratégique de prévenir tout rival de dominer les principaux centres économiques de pouvoir a été couplé à l’impératif politique de projeter le modèle américain. La grande stratégie des États-Unis se résume ainsi à la centralité de leur domination de l’ordre international, le recours au principe de l’ouverture intégrationniste du reste monde, l’entretien de leur supériorité militaire, l’extension de leur engagement international et la vitalité de leur leadership mondial. Aujourd’hui, s’il y a une région où le projet américain risque de pâtir c’est bien dans l’Asie-Pacifique.
Rêve d'une ombre, l'homme
Authors: León Patricia 
Published: October 2014

La proposition de ce texte est de lire la conférence de Lacan à Caracas comme un rêve. Au niveau du contenu manifeste, il s’agit du refus de Lacan de réduire son école à une filiation historiciste, confinée au dogmatisme académique et thérapeutique. Au niveau du contenu latent, Lacan, en nous faisant entrer dans le tableau de Bramantino, nous montre que le véritable au-delà, le franchissement de l’inconnu, c’est l’inconscient ! Le hiatus entre femme et mère nous y introduit. Entre la nostalgie qu’une femme ne soit pas une grenouille et la Vierge à l’enfant, ce tableau nous fait franchir la barre entre le visible et l’invisible ; par le mystère du féminin au cœur de ce hiatus, un autre temps, un autre espace s’ouvre, celui de l’ombre et du dépassement de l’ombre.
Le squiggle, une invention de Winnicott revisitée avec Lacan
Authors: Cassan Toesca Édith 
Published: October 2014

Le jeu du squiggle, invention de Winnicott, est ici revisité en prenant appui sur l’enseignement de Lacan. À partir d’un cas clinique où se dessinent et s’échangent des tracés, il s’agit d’interroger la conduite d’une cure d’enfant en opposant deux conceptions : l’une invite à une identification de l’analyste à la mère, l’autre pose la séparation comme introduction du manque. Les notions d’objet petit a et d’objet transitionnel y sont explorées à partir des divergences concernant la question du sujet chez ces deux auteurs.
