Stop Meditating- Return to Living Communion
Creators: name: Patrick Carodine
Publisher: name: Unified Theistic Naturalism Publications
Year: 2025

description: For centuries, meditation has been prescribed as the pathway to peace, clarity, and enlightenment. Yet, despite millions of hours spent in disciplined meditation, humanity remains restless, divided, and suffering. Unified Theistic Naturalism (UTN) reveals that meditation itself is part of the illusion — an effort based in time, reinforcing separation from the Divine rather than dissolving it. This paper demonstrates that there is no need for meditation because there is no separation to overcome. Communion with the Divine is not achieved by effort, time, or technique. It is lived now, through Presence. By seeing the true nature of meditation as a time-based oscillation, seekers are invited to step out of striving and into seamless living Communion.

Compiling Esterel into Static Discrete-Event Code
Creators: name: Edwards, Stephen A.

Publisher: name: Columbia University
Year: 2004
Subjects: Computer science

description: Executing concurrent specifications on sequential hardware is important for both simulation of systems that are eventually implemented on concurrent hardware and for those most conveniently described as a set of concurrent processes. As with most forms of simulation, this is easy to do correctly but difficult to do efficiently. Solutions such as preemptive operating systems and discrete-event simulators present significant overhead. In this paper, we present a technique for compiling the concurrent language Esterel into very efficient C code. Our technique minimizes runtime overhead by making most scheduling decisions at compile time and using a very simple linked-list-based event queue at runtime. While these techniques work particularly well for Esterel with its high-level concurrent semantics, the same technique could also be applied to efficiently execute other concurrent specifications.
Soft repulsive mixtures under gravity: brazil-nut effect, depletion bubbles, boundary layering, nonequilibrium shaking

description: A binary mixture of particles interacting via long-ranged repulsive forces is studied in gravity by computer simulation and theory. The more repulsive A-particles create a depletion zone of less repulsive B-particles around them reminiscent to a bubble. Applying Archimedes' principle effectively to this bubble, an A-particle can be lifted in a fluid background of B-particles. This "depletion bubble" mechanism explains and predicts a brazil-nut effect where the heavier A-particles float on top of the lighter B-particles. It also implies an effective attraction of an A-particle towards a hard container bottom wall which leads to boundary layering of A-particles. Additionally, we have studied a periodic inversion of gravity causing perpetual mutual penetration of the mixture in a slit geometry. In this nonequilibrium case of time-dependent gravity, the boundary layering persists. Our results are based on computer simulations and density functional theory of a two-dimensional binary mixture of colloidal repulsive dipoles. The predicted effects also occur for other long-ranged repulsive interactions and in three spatial dimensions. They are therefore verifiable in settling experiments on dipolar or charged colloidal mixtures as well as in charged granulates and dusty plasmas.

description: The purpose of this research was to develop a reliable and repeatable inflation protocol to measure the scleral inflation response of mouse eyes to elevations in intraocular pressure (IOP), comparing the inflation response exhibited by the sclera of younger and older C57BL/6 mice. Whole, enucleated eyes from younger (2 month) and older (11 month) C57BL/6 mice were mounted by the cornea on a custom fixture and inflated according to a load-unload, ramp-hold pressurization regimen via a cannula connected to a saline-filled programmable syringe pump. First, the tissue was submitted to three load-unload cycles from 6 mmHg to 15 mmHg at a rate of 0.25 mmHg/s with ten minutes of recovery between cycles. Next the tissue was submitted to a series of ramp-hold tests to measure the creep behavior at different pressure levels. For each ramp-hold test, the tissue was loaded from 6 mmHg to the set pressure at a rate of 0.25 mmHg/s and held for 30 min, and then the specimens were unloaded to 6 mmHg for 10 min. This sequence was repeated for set pressures of: 10.5, 15, 22.5, 30, 37.5, and 45 mmHg. Scleral displacement was measured using digital image correlation (DIC), and fresh scleral thickness was measured optically for each specimen after testing. For comparison, scleral thickness was measured on untested fresh tissue and epoxy-fixed tissue from age-matched animals. Comparing the apex displacement of the different aged specimens, the sclera of older animals had a statistically significant stiffer response to pressurization than the sclera of younger animals. The stiffness of the pressure-displacement response of the apex measured in the small-strain (6–15 mmHg) and the large-strain (37.5–45 mmHg) regime, respectively, were 287 ± 100 mmHg/mm and 2381 ± 191 mmHg/mm for the older tissue and 193 ± 40 mmHg/mm and 1454 ± 93 mmHg/mm for the younger tissue (Student t-test, p < 0.05). The scleral thickness varied regionally, being thickest in the peripapillary region and thinnest at the equator. Fresh scleral thickness did not differ significantly by age in this group of animals. This study presents a reliable inflation test protocol to measure the mechanical properties of mouse sclera. The inflation methodology was sensitive enough to measure scleral response to changes in IOP elevations between younger and older C57BL/6 mice. Further, the specimen-specific scleral displacement profile and thickness measurements will enable future development of specimen-specific finite element models to analyze the inflation data for material properties.

Human Rights Documentaries as Representational Practice
Creators: name: Gandsman, Ari
Publisher: name: Akademisk kvarter | Academic Quarter
Year: 2012

description: In recent years, human rights film festivals have proliferated across the globe. Often co-sponsored by human rights organizations like Amnesty International or Human Rights Watch. While human rights documentaries are not a widely identified subgenre of nonfiction film, they can be situated within a wider tradition of non-fiction filmmaking that engages in social and political issues, motivated by the underlying premise that films can effect change. Human rights documentary are often auto-denominations based on filmmaker intent, political engage¬ment, or topical focus. Although human rights documentaries should be disquieting, their aesthetic form ends up conforming to what will be shown in the article to be a problematic aesthetic and narrative template at odds with their aims. This article will offer a critique of this dominant representational style through an analysis of China Blue, directed by Micha Peled. China Blue will then be contrasted with Last Train Home, a 2009 film on the same topic, which adopts a representational style that contrasts sharply with China Blue.

description: From the viewpoint of no-cloning theorem we postulate a relation between the current accelerated expansion of our universe and the inflationary expansion in the very early universe. It implies that the fate of our universe should be in a state with accelerated expansion. Quantitatively we find that the no-cloning theorem leads to a lower bound on the cosmological constant which is compatible with observations.

Year: 2012

description: James Gillray's satirical etching from 1798 is both a comment on the French Revolution and on the political reaction to it in England. It is significant that Gillray's opposition to the French Revolution here takes the form of an attack on the Declaration of the Rights of Man and of the Citizen (Déclaration des droits de l´homme et du citoyen, which are depicted as anything but humane. It is the aim of the article to explore the genesis of human rights in the context of both the French Revolution and outside France in Britain. The point of departure of this investigation is the aesthetics of Gillray´s etching.

Evil as an Aesthetic Concept
Creators: name: Jensen, Rasmus Ugilt Holten
Publisher: name: Akademisk kvarter | Academic Quarter
Year: 2012

description: It should be quite easy to observe that there has been an overwhelming increase in popular usages of the concept of evil since events termed simply by the dual integers 9/11. The way the academic community has reacted to the (re)emergence of the signifier "evil" in public discourse can be divided into three general trends. First there are the ethico-political discussions and investigations, which more or less take the concept at face value. Secondly there are the philosophical investigations into what the concept of evil could at all be taken to mean: "What is evil?" Thirdly there are the more discourse-analytically inclined investigations into how human relations are structured by the usage of such morally defined signifiers. What unites all of these approaches is the generally accepted idea that the concept "evil" is a moral or ethical one. The central point of this article is to challenge this idea. It will be argued that the crucial function, which the concept serves, is often aesthetic rather than ethical. The article argues that it might be prudent to open up this framework in a direction that draws as much upon aesthetic theory as it does upon theories of ethics. In so many words we have many reasons to study closely the aesthetics of human rights.

description: Gaseous PhotoMultipliers (GPM) are a very promising alternative of vacuum PMTs especially for large-size noble-liquid detectors in the field of Functional Nuclear Medical Imaging and Direct Dark Matter Detection. We present recent characterization results of a Hybrid-GPM made of three Micropattern Gaseous Structures; a Thick Gaseous Electron Multiplier (THGEM), a Parallel Ionization Multiplier (PIM) and a MICROMesh GAseous Structure (MICROMEGAS),operating in Ne/CF4 (90:10). Gain values close to 10^7 were recorded in this mixture, with 5.9keV x-rays at 1100 mbar, both at room temperature and at that of liquid xenon (T = 171K). The results are discussed in term of scintillation detection. While the present multiplier was investigated without photocathode, complementary results of photoextraction from CsI UV photocathodes are presented in Ne/CH4 (95:5) and CH4 in cryogenic conditions.

The Community of Rights

description: This article is about the negotiation of the limits of the community of rights in the age of the French Revolution and the Reign of Terror, and it has a special emphasis on the question of women’s rights. The relatively unknown author and political activist Olympe de Gouges is used as a case with focus on the radical and egalitarian part of her thinking. De Gouges’s challenge to a normative understanding of sexual differences and her defense of women’s and illegitimate children’s rights are examples of how the rhetoric of human rights and the idea of the natural has been operationalized in a way that made it possible to see and criticize the fact that women were excluded from the political sphere as long as equality among brothers was the sole alternative to the paternal authority of the king.

description: This article develops a conceptual analysis of the dynamics of violence during the transition from war to peace and democracy in the Democratic Republic of Congo between 2003 and 2006. I locate the sources, at the local, national, and regional levels, of continued local violence during this transition. Through an analysis of the situation in the Kivus, I illustrate how local dynamics interacted with the national and regional dimensions of the conflict. I demonstrate that, after a national and regional settlement was reached, some local conflicts over land and political power increasingly became self-sustaining and autonomous from the national and regional tracks.

description: We consider signatures of abelian and nonabelian quasiparticle statistics in quantum Hall Fabry-Perot interferometers. When quasiparticles enter and exit the interference cell, for instance due to glassy motion in the dopant layer, the anyonic phase can be observed in phase jumps. In the case of the nonabelian nu=5/2 state, if the interferometer is small, we argue that free Majorana states in the interference cell are either strongly coupled to one another or are strongly coupled to the edge. We analyze the expected phase jumps and in particular suggest that changes in the parity of the Majorana ground state should gives rise to characteristic jumps of pi in the interference phase.

description: Objective: The Ad Hoc Subcommittee for Evaluation of the Evidence Base for Psychodynamic Psychotherapy of the APA Committee on Research on Psychiatric Treatments developed the Randomized Controlled Trial Psychotherapy Quality Rating Scale (RCT-PQRS). The authors report results from application of the RCT-PQRS to 94 randomized controlled trials of psychodynamic psychotherapy published between 1974 and May 2010. Method: Five psychotherapy researchers from a range of therapeutic orientations rated a single published paper from each study. Results: The RCT-PQRS had good interrater reliability and internal consistency. The mean total quality score was 25.1 (SD=8.8). More recent studies had higher total quality scores. Sixty-three of 103 comparisons between psychodynamic psychotherapy and a nondynamic comparator were of "adequate" quality. Of 39 comparisons of a psychodynamic treatment and an "active" comparator, six showed dynamic treatment to be superior, five showed dynamic treatment to be inferior, and 28 showed no difference (few of which were powered for equivalence). Of 24 adequate comparisons of psychodynamic psychotherapy with an "inactive" comparator, 18 found dynamic treatment to be superior. Conclusions: Existing randomized controlled trials of psychodynamic psychotherapy are promising but mostly show superiority of psychodynamic psychotherapy to an inactive comparator. This would be sufficient to make psychodynamic psychotherapy an "empirically validated" treatment (per American Psychological Association Division 12 standards) only if further randomized controlled trials of adequate quality and sample size replicated findings of existing positive trials for specific disorders. We do not yet know what will emerge when other psychotherapies are subjected to this form of quality-based review.

description: We study the nonlocal properties of two-qubit maximally-entangled and N-qubit Greenberger-Horne-Zeilinger states under local decoherence. We show that the (non)resilience of entanglement under local depolarization or dephasing is not necessarily equivalent to the (non)resilience of Bell-inequality violations. Apart from entanglement and Bell-inequality violations, we consider also nonlocality as quantified by the nonlocal content of correlations, and provide several examples of anomalous behaviors, both in the bipartite and multipartite cases. In addition, we study the practical implications of these anomalies on the usefulness of noisy Greenberger-Horne-Zeilinger states as resources for nonlocality-based physical protocols given by communication complexity problems. There, we provide examples of quantum gains improving with the number of particles that coexist with exponentially-decaying entanglement and non-local contents.

description: Pictures of atrocity play a major role in human rights campaigns, but contemporary artists may show different responses to human rights violations. The essay looks at a less discussed strand in contemporary art, which has taken an approach to the representation of human rights violations, i.e. the works of artists and activists Thomas Hirschhorn and Paul Chan. The article asks and answers the question: Ultimately Chan and Hirschhorn’s fascination with violence opens up serious questions regarding the use of images of physical abuse in order to garner interest in the politics of human rights. Is the depiction of violence necessary in order to provoke spectators and induce them to protest against human rights violations or, alternatively, is graphic violence always voyeuristic and a further degradation of the victim?

Publisher: name: Columbia University
Year: 1995

description: A survey of research in the area of vision sensor planning is presented. The problem can be summarized as follows: given information about the environment as well as information about the task that the vision system is to accomplish, develop strategies to automatically determine sensor parameter values that achieve this task with a certain degree of satisfaction. With such strategies, sensor parameters values can be selected and can be purposefully changed in order to effectively perform the task at hand. The focus here is on vision sensor planning for the task of robustly detecting object features. For this task, camera and illumination parameters such as position, orientation, and optical settings are determined so that object features are, for example, visible, in focus, within the sensor field of view, magnified as required, and imaged with sufficient contrast. References to, and a brief description of, representative sensing strategies for the tasks of object recognition and scene reconstruction are also presented. For these tasks, sensor configurations are sought that will prove most useful when trying to identify an object or reconstruct a scene.

Posthuman Rights
Creators: name: Christiansen, Steen
Publisher: name: Akademisk kvarter | Academic Quarter

description: If the primary human rights preoccupation of mainstream film and television is the ethical status of the human, the film Splice with biotech themes (Vincenzo Natali, 2009) is far more interested in the ontological status of the human. The article claims that this seems to reverse the human rights issue – rather than focus on which rights should be inherent to the human, Splice complicates matters by asking how the human is constituted and therefore which rights should be extended in liminal cases. In other words, if most recent catastrophe fictions express an anxiety over human descent into depravity and a loss of what makes us human, Splice asks the persistent question of what constitutes the “life” in the right to life. The article concludes: "We do need to ask ourselves if the rights of the human trump the rights to be human and what this will mean for the human rights to come."

The Intersection between Art and Human Rights
Creators: name: Costa, Elena M. De
Publisher: name: Akademisk kvarter | Academic Quarter
Year: 2012

description: This article asks the initial question of what the arts in general and literature in particular have contributed to social justice and human rights, and it addresses the question in a Latin American context. The humanities and social sciences have become an engaging dialogic encounter between political, historical, legal, and ethical discourses on human rights and cultural texts including literature (poetry, memoir, testimony, and its particular Latin American form – testimonio – as well as narrative), the visual and performing arts, film, and popular culture. The article presents the Chilean-American poet and human rights activist Marjorie Agosín and her negation of forgetfulness and oblivion in this context.

Quantum-defect theory of resonant charge exchange

description: We apply the quantum-defect theory for $-1/R^4$ potential to study the resonant charge exchange process. We show that by taking advantage of the partial-wave-insensitive nature of the formulation, resonant charge exchange of the type of $^1$S+$^2$S can be accurately described over a wide range of energies using only three parameters, such as the \textit{gerade} and the \textit{ungerade} $s$ wave scattering lengths, and the atomic polarizability, even at energies where many partial waves contribute to the cross sections. The parameters can be determined experimentally, without having to rely on accurate potential energy surfaces, of which few exist for ion-atom systems. The theory further relates ultracold interactions to interactions at much higher temperatures.

title: Mattering and Attachment: A Bilateral Association That Underlies Relationship Outcomes in Couples
Creators: name: Ybarra, Jacob
Publisher: name: Utah State University

description: In this master's thesis, I conducted a quantitative study using data from 100 heterosexual couples in a committed, romantic relationship to better understand the relationship between perceived mattering (PM) and attachment and to explore how mattering relates to various mental health and relationship outcomes. All 200 partners independently completed an online anonymous questionnaire consisting of various quantitative assessments measuring my study variables (e.g., attachment, PM, and relationship and mental health outcomes).
I used dyadic data analysis to examine how study variables related to an individual's outcomes as well as their partner's. Overall, findings from the first analysis highlighted that men reported lower PM in the relationship when their female partner was higher in attachment avoidance. In addition, higher levels of attachment avoidance or attachment anxiety were significantly associated with lower PM for both men and women. The second analysis revealed that higher actor and partner PM was significantly associated with higher couple satisfaction and stronger constructive communication patterns (CCP) for men and women. For men, stronger needs-based communication (NBC) was significantly associated with stronger CCP. For women, stronger NBC was significantly associated with stronger CCP, lower anxiety, and lower depression.
The MVP sensor planning system for robotic vision tasks

description: The MVP (machine vision planner) model-based sensor planning system for robotic vision is presented. MVP automatically synthesizes desirable camera views of a scene based on geometric models of the environment, optical models of the vision sensors, and models of the task to be achieved. The generic task of feature detectability has been chosen since it is applicable to many robot-controlled vision systems. For such a task, features of interest in the environment are required to simultaneously be visible, inside the field of view, in focus, and magnified as required. In this paper, we present a technique that poses the vision sensor planning problem in an optimization setting and determines viewpoints that satisfy all previous requirements simultaneously and with a margin. In addition, we present experimental results of this technique when applied to a robotic vision system that consists of a camera mounted on a robot manipulator in a hand-eye configuration.

Characterization of the role of CD34 in adult skeletal muscle regeneration
Creators: name: Alfaro, Leslie Ann So
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2011

description: Expression of the cell surface sialomucin CD34 is common to many adult stem cell types, including muscle satellite cells. However, no clear stem cell or regeneration-related phenotype has ever been reported in mice lacking CD34, and its function on these cells remains poorly understood. Here, we assess the functional role of CD34 on satellite cell-mediated muscle regeneration. Using an optimized flow cytometry-based method to analyze myogenic progenitors, we show that CD34’s expression is tightly regulated early during the muscle regeneration process. Following this, we show that Cd34⁻/⁻ mice, which have no obvious developmental phenotype, display a defect in muscle regeneration when challenged with either acute or chronic muscle injury, resulting in impaired myofibre hypertrophy. In vivo engraftment efficiency and BrdU proliferation assays comparing WT and Cd34⁻/⁻ myogenic progenitors attribute this defect to impaired myogenic progenitor cell function in Cd34⁻/⁻ animals. Lastly, the culture of isolated single myofibres demonstrate that this overall muscle regenerative defect is caused by a delay in the activation of satellite cells lacking CD34 as well as impaired proliferation following activation. Consistent with the reported anti-adhesive function of CD34, Cd34⁻/⁻ satellite cells also show decreased motility along their host myofibre. Altogether, our results identify a role for CD34 in the poorly understood early steps of satellite cell activation, and provide the first evidence that beyond being a stem cell marker, CD34 may play an important function in modulating satellite cell activity.

description: We describe a method to compute thermodynamic quantities in the harmonic approximation for identical bosons and fermions in an external confining field. We use the canonical partition function where only energies and their degeneracies enter. The number of states of given energy and symmetry is found by separating the center of mass motion, and counting the remaining states of given symmetry and excitation energy of the relative motion. The oscillator frequencies that enter the harmonic Hamiltonian can be derived from realistic model parameters and the method corresponds to an effective interaction approach based on harmonic interactions. To demonstrate the method, we apply it to systems in two dimensions. Numerical calculations are compared to a brute force method that is considerably more computationally intensive.
