ABSTRACT:
The essay analyzes the decision of the European Ombudsman of 25 January 2013, in a case where it was found maladministration by the European Commission, which has made a mistake in interpreting Article 17 of the Treaty on the Functioning of the European Union.
Based on this ruling, the author performs some thoughts on the meaning and scope of Article 17 TFEU and reconstructs a reading of this provision that is quite different from that which the European institutions often seem to accept.

Extreme drinking among young adults in Kelowna and Vancouver : an ethnographic inquiry
Creators: name: Sharkey, Allison K.
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2016

description: This study presents an in-depth qualitative understanding of extreme drinking among young adults age 19-26 in Vancouver and Kelowna, BC and offers recommendations for harm prevention and reduction strategies. Extreme drinking is defined as the research participant’s intentional consumption of alcohol with the explicit intent to achieve a subjective state of intense drunkenness or intoxication. I investigate young adults’ conceptualizations of extreme drinking behaviours, their motivations for such behaviours and the cultural, economic, structural and political factors that influence the occurrence of extreme drinking. I identify issues harm prevention and reduction strategies should focus on. Methods include semi-structured interviews with self-identified current and former extreme drinkers and structured observations at licensed establishments in each city. I draw on personal experience, providing a component of autoethnography in my analysis. Among extreme drinkers, the perceived positive outcomes of extreme drinking tend to outweigh the perceived negative ones. Alcohol functions as social lubricant, facilitator of sexual encounters and as a means of entertainment. Several study participants report using alcohol to decrease feelings of stress, anxiety or depression. Life problems related to securing financially and emotionally rewarding careers and actual or perceived barriers to mental health care are cited as motivations for extreme drinking. Alcohol consumption provides young adults a means of catharsis and release from negative emotions related to life problems. Extreme drinkers use black humour to cope with negative drinking outcomes and to justify continued extreme drinking. Recommendations for harm reduction include implementing educational campaigns detailing particular health risks associated with extreme drinking and means for offsetting risks, encouraging authority figures to promote the idea that it is safe and acceptable to seek medical attention when intoxicated, enforcing laws regulating the operations of drinking establishments, increasing traffic stops in suburban areas, implementing alcohol counseling hotlines and instituting cellphone charging areas or free public phones in drinking establishments. Recommendations for harm prevention include encouraging older adults to model moderate drinking behaviours, providing safe opportunities for young people to experiment with alcohol and fostering awareness of issues associated with youth sexuality, mental health, social skills development and transitioning from childhood to adulthood.

SUMMARY: 1. Preliminary Remarks - 2. The veil before the European Court of Human Rights – 3. Religious Symbols in Article 9 ECHR case law and women’s religious freedom in Europe – 4. Islamic Symbols and European Institutions. Indirect Discrimination? – 5. Conclusive Remarks.

Abstract
Religious freedom within Europe and the place of Islam within Europe are of particular contemporary interest. The focus of recent case law developed by the European Court of Human Rights (ECtHR) has been on national laws which proscribe the wearing of religious symbols in certain aspects of the public sphere, and on the claims more generally to religious and cultural freedom of Muslim minorities in European states. Stepping back from these cases, this Article aims at a theoretical analysis of the subject, involving the contrast between value pluralism as a basis for religious freedom in international law, and other fundamental rights, i.e. women’s or children’s rights. By recognizing the intrinsic connection between individual rights and communal goods, value pluralism opens new pathways for enforcing human rights.

description: This paper describes the steps taken to model a valency lexicon for Latin (Latin Vallex) according to the principles of the Linked Data paradigm, and to interlink its valency frames with the lexical senses recorded in a manually checked subset of the Latin WordNet. The valency lexicon and the WordNet share lexical entries and are part of the LiLa Knowledge Base, which interlinks multiple linguistic resources for Latin. After describing the overall architecture of LiLa, as well as the structure of the lexical entries of Latin Vallex and Latin WordNet, the paper focuses on how valency frames have been modeled in LiLa, in line with a submodule of the Predicate Model for Ontologies (PreMOn) specifically created for the representation of grammatical valency. A mapping of the valency frames and the WordNet synsets assigned to the lexical entries shared by the two resources is detailed, as well as a number of queries that can be run across the interoperable resources for Latin currently included in LiLa.

description: We use multiwavelength data from the Galaxy And Mass Assembly (GAMA) and Herschel ATLAS (H-ATLAS) surveys to compare the relationship between various dust obscuration measures in galaxies. We explore the connections between the ultraviolet (UV) spectral slope, $β$, the Balmer decrement, and the far infrared (IR) to $150\,$nm far ultraviolet (FUV) luminosity ratio. We explore trends with galaxy mass, star formation rate (SFR) and redshift in order to identify possible systematics in these various measures. We reiterate the finding of other authors that there is a large scatter between the Balmer decrement and the $β$ parameter, and that $β$ may be poorly constrained when derived from only two broad passbands in the UV. We also emphasise that FUV derived SFRs, corrected for dust obscuration using $β$, will be overestimated unless a modified relation between $β$ and the attenuation factor is used. Even in the optimum case, the resulting SFRs have a significant scatter, well over an order of magnitude. While there is a stronger correlation between the IR to FUV luminosity ratio and $β$ parameter than with the Balmer decrement, neither of these correlations are particularly tight, and dust corrections based on $β$ for high redshift galaxy SFRs must be treated with caution. We conclude with a description of the extent to which the different obscuration measures are consistent with each other as well as the effects of including other galactic properties on these correlations.

The upper limits on the extragalactic background light (EBL), using the Fermi and very high energy (VHE) spectra recently observed in TeV blazars, are presented. We use an assumption that the VHE intrinsic photon index cannot be harder than the Fermi index measured by the Fermi-LAT. Totally, these upper limits on the EBL are compatible with ones given by most of EBL models. However, the models of high EBL density are denied by TeV blazars.

title: What are the palliative care needs of people severely affected by neurodegenerative conditions, and how can a Specialist Palliative Care Service best meet these needs
Creators: name: Veronese, Simone
Publisher: name: University of Kent
Year: 2022

description: Background: There is increasing recognition of the need for service development for patients in the advanced stages of neurological conditions. This study explores the palliative care needs of people with advanced amyotrophic lateral sclerosis, multiple sclerosis, Parkinson’s disease and related disorders, and assesses the impact of a new specialist palliative care service (SPCS) Methods:. A mixed methods approach was adopted: • a qualitative needs assessment using in-depth interviews with patients and their family carers and focus groups of professionals involved in the care of this population. • a quantitative pilot-explorative randomized and controlled trial (RCT) to assess the impact of a new SPCS designed to meet the palliative care needs of the study population – using a waiting list methodology comparing the immediate provision of SPCS with standard care . Results: • Qualitative study: 22 patients, 21 family carers and 11 professionals participated to the needs assessment. The content analysis showed a high prevalence of problems. Professionals confirmed the high burden of problems, were positive about the creation of a new SPCS and their knowledge of specific palliative care topics seemed lacking. • Quantitative study: 50 patients, with 45 carers, participated in the explorative RCT. The comparison between the groups (FT-ST) after 16 weeks revealed significant improvement for the SPCS group for quality of life and in four physical symptoms - pain, breathlessness, sleep disturbance and intestinal symptoms Conclusions: This research confirms the high prevalence of physical symptoms, psychosocial issues and spiritual themes for people severely affected by advanced neurodegenerative disorders and that these can be helped by specialist palliative care. The input of a SPCS caused a significant improvement of the individual quality of life of the patients and improved symptom control for pain, breathlessness, quality of sleep and intestinal symptoms compared to standard best care alone.
title: Genetic Variants of Red Blood Cells and Malaria Pathophysiology
Creators: name: Joof, Fatou
Publisher: name: The Open University
Year: 2022

description: The clinical outcome of Plasmodium falciparum (P. falciparum) infection depends on a combination of timely treatment, pre-existing immunity and host genetic factors. An increasingly important role is attributed to these host genetic factors which are now believed to play a critical role in disease pathogenesis. The host red blood cell (RBC) serves an essential role in the life cycle of P. falciparum; understanding variations in the molecular and cell biology of this cell type leads to essential insights into the variations observed in disease outcomes. The aim of this thesis is to study functional RBC variants, characteristics and mechanisms by which protection against malaria may be mediated. I investigated three distinct characteristics of host RBCs for their effect on malaria pathogenesis and drug susceptibility.

 First, I investigated the impact of host iron deficiency on the susceptibility of P. falciparum to the front-line antimalarial drug, artemisinin. Since previous work has shown that artemisinin is activated by heme iron and that the efficacy of artemisinin against malaria parasites is directly linked to the amount of free heme in the host RBCs, we reasoned that host haemoglobin levels may alter the susceptibility of P. falciparum to artemisinin. Fortunately for public health programs in Sub Saharan Africa, low iron status in the host did not impact artemisinin activity or the susceptibility of artemisinin-resistant parasites.

 Second, I investigated the association of the Q248H polymorphism in the ferroportin gene with malaria pathogenesis. Ferroportin is an iron exporter found in RBCs. The Q248H polymorphism has been previously reported to decrease the degradation of ferroportin by hepcidin and to be associated with protection from malaria. To further investigate this, I investigated ex vivo P.falciparum growth in RBCs from pregnant women and children in rural Gambia with this polymorphism. I observed no excess malaria growth in Q248H RBCs ex vivo. This indicates that the Q248H mutation does not deprive malaria parasites entirely of iron.

 Third, I investigated the role of polymorphisms in the human gene ATP2B4 on the erythrocytic lifecycle of P. falciparum. ATP2B4 codes for PMCA4b, the major plasma membrane calcium pump in RBCs. Recent genome wide association and cross-sectional studies have identified novel polymorphisms associated with decreased malaria risk in ATP2B4. I focused on a variant haplotype in ATP2B4 composed of 17 single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) that are in strong linkage disequilibrium. I found a reduced rate of PMCA4b expression, calcium expulsion and P. falciparum growth in RBCs from participants homozygous for the mutant haplotype. I concluded that this variant ATP2B4 haplotype, which has a high minor allele frequency in West African populations, protects against severe malaria by controlling parasite density.

description: Since 2008, many new families of iron-based high temperature (high-$T_c$) superconductors have been discovered \cite{Hosono,ChenXH,FeTe,ChenXL}. Unlike all parent compounds of cuprates that share a common antiferromagnetically (AF) ordered ground state, those of iron-based superconductors exhibit many different AF ordered ground states, including collinear-AF (CAF) state in ferropnictides \cite{caf}, bicollinear-AF (BCAF) state in 11-ferrochalcogenide $FeTe$ \cite{bcaf,bcaf2}, and block-AF (BAF) state in 122-ferrochalcogenide $K_{0.8}Fe_{1.6}Se_2$ \cite{baf}. While the universal presence of antiferromagnetism suggests that superconductivity is strongly interrelated with magnetism, the diversity of the AF ordered states obscures their interplay. Here we show that all magnetic phases can be unified within an effective magnetic model. This model captures three incommensurate magnetic phases, two of which have been observed experimentally. The model characterizes the nature of phase transitions between the different magnetic phases and explains a variety of magnetic properties, such as spin-wave spectra and electronic nematism. Most importantly, by unifying the understanding of magnetism, we cast new insight on the key ingredients of magnetic interactions which are critical to the occurrence of superconductivity.

The branches related to the TW with different wavelengths are found for the stacks with different number of Josephson junctions at different values of system's parameters. Transitions between the TW branches and the outermost branch are observed. Time dependence of the electric charge in the superconducting layers and charge-charge correlation functions for TW and outermost branches show different behavior with bias current. We propose an experimental testing of the TW by microwave irradiation.

description: We studied the temperature and metal abundance distributions of the intra-cluster medium (ICM) in a group of galaxies NGC 1550 observed with Suzaku. The NGC 1550 is classified as a fossil group, which have few bright member galaxies except for the central galaxy. Thus, such a type of galaxy is important to investigate how the metals are enriched to the ICM. With the Suzaku XIS instruments, we directly measured not only Si, S, and Fe lines but also O and Mg lines and obtained those abundances to an outer region of ~0.5 r_180 for the first time, and confirmed that the metals in the ICM of such a fossil group are indeed extending to a large radius. We found steeper gradients for Mg, Si, S, and Fe abundances, while O showed almost flat abundance distribution. Abundance ratios of alpha-elements to Fe were similar to those of the other groups and poor clusters. We calculated the number ratio of type II to type Ia supernovae for the ICM enrichment to be 2.9 +- 0.5 within 0.1 r_180, and the value was consistent with those for the other groups and poor clusters observed with Suzaku. We also calculated metal mass-to-light ratios (MLRs) for Fe, O and Mg with B-band and K-band luminosities of the member galaxies of NGC 1550. The derived MLRs were comparable to those of NGC 5044 group in the r<0.1 r_180 region, while those of NGC 1550 are slightly higher than those of NGC 5044 in the outer region.

The structural and fluid evolution of the Efemçukuru epithermal gold deposit, western Turkey
Creators: name: Boucher, Kaleb S.
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2016

description: The Western Tethyan Metallogenic Belt in Turkey hosts numerous hydrothermal mineral deposits. The Efemçukuru epithermal gold deposit, southwest of Izmir contains a resource of 1.69 Moz Au (at 8.39 g/t) and comprises two mineralized NW-trending quartz-rhodochrosite veins (Kestanebeleni and Kokarpınar). These structures are hosted in carbonate-rich phyllites of the Bornova Flysch; an Upper Cretaceous ophiolitic mélange sequence. The veins are pre-dated by similarly striking rhyolite dikes, and a 200 to 500 m wide halo of silicification and chloritization. Six main stages of veining were identified based on mineralogy, textures, and crosscutting relationships. Early veins of quartz, chlorite, and calc-silicates (Stage I) are cut by two stages of brecciating and banded veins of quartz, rhodochrosite, rhodonite, and pyrite (II, III). Later veins with disseminated (IV) and massive base-metal sulfides (V) cut previous phases, and subsequently by late quartz-carbonate veinlets (VI). Gold occurs as electrum and with pyrite and galena in Stages III, IV, and V. Kestanebeleni and Kokarpınar veins are controlled by moderately to steeply dipping NW- to NNW-trending faults. An analysis of the fault patterns, vein and dike orientations, combined with rock and soil geochemistry indicate that the highest and most prolific gold grades are associated with the steeply dipping NNW-trending structures. These vein segments are dominated by the vein stages of IV and V and represent “fault-linkage zones” where hydrothermal fluids were focused. Carbon and oxygen isotope analysis of vein carbonates indicate a mixed meteoric and magmatic source for the hydrothermal fluids. Variations in δ¹³C and δ¹⁸O values reveal two trends; one corresponding to interaction of meteoric fluids with host rocks (Trend 1), and the second from strong degassing (i.e. boiling) of magmatic fluids (Trend 2). Trend 1 samples are common in both Kestanebeleni and Kokarpınar, while Trend 2 samples occur as localized segments in Kestanebeleni. The latter also correspond to the thickest and highest gold grade regions of Kestanebeleni, indicating degassing was an important process for high grade gold deposition. The fault linkage zones provided the structural permeability that facilitated rapid degassing of auriferous fluids from Stages IV and V.

description: Die Prävention und Erkennung von Cyber-Angriffen ist eine Herausforderung von hoher Bedeutung, da die Digitalisierung nahezu aller Lebensbereiche immer weiter voranschreitet. Im Forschungssektor der sogenannten Intrusion Detection wird fortlaufend untersucht, inwiefern sich Machine Learning (ML) zur Erkennung von Angriffen eignet. Während ML-Algorithmen bei Anwendungsfällen wie Produktempfehlungen oder Spam-Filtern erfolgreich in Produktion eingesetzt werden können, gestaltet sich die Anwendung in der Intrusion Detection schwieriger. In sogenannten signatur-basierten IDS-Systemen werden Regelwerke eingesetzt, um Angriffe im Netzwerkverkehr zur Laufzeit zu erkennen. Die Erstellung und Verwaltung dieser IDS-Regeln erfolgt normalerweise manuell und erfordert eine hohe Domänenexpertise. Diese Masterthesis liefert einen Forschungsbeitrag, da diese IDS-Regeln erstmals automatisiert unter der Verwendung von Machine Learning erzeugt werden. Die für diesen Zweck entwickelte Toolchain verwendet Entscheidungsbaum-Algorithmen zur Regelerzeugung aus Trainingsdaten. Des Weiteren werden die Regeln für den Einsatz in einem signatur-basierten IDS-System in das Format von Suricata konvertiert. Die Evaluierung der erzeugten Regeln hat gezeigt, dass in einer Vielzahl von Experimenten hohe Erkennungsraten und wenige Fehlalarme möglich sind. Allerdings basieren die betroffenen Regelwerke zum Teil auf unterkomplexen Zusammenhängen in den zugrundeliegenden Trainingsdaten. Darüber hinaus verfügen die Regelwerke über eine eingeschränkte Generalisierungsfähigkeit. Für ein finales Urteil wäre es notwendig und empfehlenswert, zusätzliche Forschungskapazitäten für die Erstellung repräsentativer IDS-Datensätze aufzuwenden.

description: We present a detailed spectroscopic study of the hot gas in the Galactic halo toward the direction of a blazer PKS 2155-304 (z=0.117). The OVII and OVIII absorption lines are measured with the Low and High Energy Transmission Grating Spectrographs aboard Chandra, and the OVII, OVIII, and NeIX emission lines produced in the adjacent field of the PKS 2155-304 direction are observed with the X-ray Imaging Spectrometer aboard Suzaku. Assuming vertically exponential distributions of the gas temperature and the density, we perform a combined analysis of the absorption and emission data. The gas temperature and density at the Galactic plane are determined to be 2.5(+0.6,-0.3) MK and 1.4(+0.5,-0.4) x 10^{-3} cm^{-3} and the scale heights of the gas temperature and density are 5.6(+7.4,-4.2) kpc and 2.3(+0.9,-0.8) kpc, respectively. These values are consistent with those obtained in the LMC X-3 direction.

A new approach to the study of effective string corrections in LGTs

description: We propose a new approach to the study of the interquark potential in Lattice Gauge Theories. Instead of looking at the expectation value of Polyakov loop correlators we study the modifications induced in the chromoelectric flux by the presence of the Polyakov loops. In abelian LGTs, thanks to duality, this study can be performed in a very efficient way, allowing to reach high precision at a reasonable CPU cost. The major advantage of this strategy is that it allows to eliminate the dominant effective string correction to the interquark potential (the Luscher term) thus giving an unique opportunity to test higher order corrections. Performing a set of simulations in the 3d gauge Ising model we were thus able to precisely identify and measure both the quartic and the sextic effective string corrections to the interquark potential. While the quartic term perfectly agrees with the Nambu-Goto one the sextic term is definitely different. Our result seems to disagree with the recent proof of the universality of the sextic correction. We discuss a few possible explanations of this disagreement.

Relaxation properties in classical diamagnetism

description: In the present paper the problem of the relaxation of magnetization to equilibrium (i.e., with no magnetization) is investigated numerically for a variant of the well-known model introduced by Bohr to study the diamagnetism of electrons in metals. Such a model is mathematically equivalent to a billiard with obstacles in a magnetic field. We show that it is not guaranteed that equilibrium is attained within the typical time scales of microscopic dynamics. Indeed, considering an out of equilibrium state produced by an adiabatic switching on of a magnetic field, we show that, depending on the values of the parameters, one has a relaxation either to equilibrium or to a diamagnetic (presumably metastable) state. The analogy with the relaxation properties in the FPU problem is also pointed out.

Distance and Similarity Measures for Soft Sets

description: In [P. Majumdar, S. K. Samanta, Similarity measure of soft sets, New Mathematics and Natural Computation 4(1)(2008) 1-12], the authors use matrix representation based distances of soft sets to introduce matching function and distance based similarity measures. We first give counterexamples to show that their Definition 2.7 and Lemma 3.5(3) contain errors, then improve their Lemma 4.4 making it a corllary of our result. The fundamental assumption of Majumdar et al has been shown to be flawed. This motivates us to introduce set operations based measures. We present a case (Example 28) where Majumdar-Samanta similarity measure produces an erroneous result but the measure proposed herein decides correctly. Several properties of the new measures have been presented and finally the new similarity measures have been applied to the problem of financial diagnosis of firms.
