description: Tuberculosis, caused by Mycobacterium tuberculosis (Mtb), is the top bacterial infectious disease killer and one of top ten causes of deaths worldwide. Multi drug resistant TB (MDR-TB) may arise because of poor patient adherence to treatment due to lengthy treatment duration and side effects. Delivering novel host directed therapies (HDT), like all trans retinoic acid (ATRA) may help to improve drug regimens and reduce the incidence of MDR-TB. ATRA is poorly soluble and has a short half-life. Therefore it requires a formulation step before it can be administered in vivo. ATRA loaded PLGA nanoparticles (ATRA-PLGA NPs) suitable for nebulization were manufactured using nanoprecipiation method. ATRA-PLGA NPs reduced bacterial growth in a dose dependent manner in H37Ra Mtb infected THP-1 cells. ATRA-PLGA NPs were then integrated with a vibrating mesh nebulizer (VMN) and the resulting aerosol had aerodynamic properties suitable for lung targeting. A scalable nanomanufacturing approach was optimized using microfluidics (MF) mixing. MF-ATRA-PLGA NPs demonstrated a dose dependent inhibition of Mtb growth in TB infected A549 alveolar epithelial cell model. In a preliminary study using Galleria mellonella (Gm) innovative in vivo model of TB infection, treatment with free ATRA or MF-ATRA-PLGA NPs did not improve colony forming units (CFU) or survival. Pre-treatment of BALB/c mice with free ATRA at 1.25 mg/kg 24 hrs before infection led to a decreased bacterial load trend in mice lungs 72 hrs post infection. Overall, the results of this project are promising for future research into ATRA as inhaled host directed therapies for TB. The data generated on the efficacy of inhalable, scalable and regulatory friendly ATRA-PLGA NPs formulation provides a foundation on which further pre-clinical testing can be built.

description: We study least deviation of logarithmic derivatives of real-valued polynomials with a fixed root from zero on the segment $[-1;1]$ in the uniform norm with the weight $\sqrt{1-x^2}$ and without it. Basing on results of Komarov and Novak and on a certain determinant identity due to Borchardt, we also establish a criterion for best uniform approximation of continuous real-valued functions by logarithmic derivatives in terms of a Chebyshev alternance.
The Book/Body in The Duchess of Malfi
Creators: name: Rendek, Emily
Publisher: name: punctum books

description: For  Helen  Smith,  in  “Embodying  Early  Modern  Women’s  Reading,”  “the  text  enacts  a  physiological  change”  on  the  reader.1  In  this  essay,  I  should  like  to  revise  this  statement  to  suggest  that  this  “change”  is  actu-ally  an  exchange between  text  and  body.  The  marginalia  left  behind  by  early  modern  readers  are  visible  traces  of  their  bodily  imprints  upon  the  text  and  suggest  that  by  their  reading,  the  text  becomes  an  extension  of  the  reader’s  body.  Such  exchanges  need  not  be  limited  only  to  such  vis-ible  marks.  Recent  scholarship  has  begun  to  study  the  often  slightly  less  visible  marks  left  behind  by  book  users;  Katherine  Rudy’s  work  employs  the use of a densitometer to examine these marks, which include oils from fingerprints,  food  stains,  tears,  and  even  blood  stains  that  help  to  create  a better idea of what parts of a text a reader read and how often that text was  read.2  It  is  not  just  that  “[t]he  process  of  accessing  the  text  was  a  cor-poreal one . . . impressing key content on the reader’s memory,” but that the text  itself  also  becomes  embodied,  taking  on  features  of  its  reader.3  Te x t   and  reader  exchange  properties.  To  say  only  that  “[r]eaders’  bodies  were  molded  and  altered  by  the  texts  they  read”  is  to  ignore  the  other  side  of  the  equation.4  The  reader  is  not  only  imprinted  by  the  text  but  imprints  the  text  itself  (both  literally  and  figuratively).  The  relationship  between  book  and  reader  proves  symbiotic,  an  example  of  facultative  mutualism  (where  two  entities  are  interdependent  but  not  completely  dependent  upon  each  other),  something,  as  I  shall  show,  is  illustrated  perfectly  in  the figures of the Cardinal and his Bible in John Webster’s The Duchess of Malfi.  The  Cardinal’s  overpowering,  poisonous  character — he  would  be  “able to possess the greatest devil, and make him worse”5— is both altered by  his  (mis)reading  of  the  Bible  and  other  religious  texts  (see  5.5.1–10),  as  well  as  being  able  to  infect  the  book  itself,  allowing  it  to  literally  become  poisonous, thereby killing Julia. In the play, the use of the book as murder weapon  demonstrates  how  the  boundary  between  book  and  body  (of  the  reader)  become  blurred  as  both  the  permeability  of  the  page  and  of  the  body is emphasized throughout the play.
Crutches and Cripistemology in The Fair Maid of the Exchange
Creators: name: Row-Heyveld, Lindsey
Publisher: name: punctum books
Year: 2016

description: The  Cripple,  the  central  character  of  the  anonymous  1607  city  comedy The  Fair  Maid  of  the  Exchange,  describes  the  onset  of  his  dis-ability  as  “the  visitation  of  my  legges,  and  my  expence  in  timber.”1  His  statement  frames  this  experience  in  both  enlivened  and  economic  terms.  “Visitation,”  defined  as  affliction  with  illness  or  trouble,  was  usually  accompanied  by  the  subject  performing  that  action,  for  instance,  “the  visitation  of  the  Lord”  or  “the  visitation  of  death.”2  In  this  case,  how-ever,  his  phrase  suggests  that  the  legs  themselves  enacted  the  visitation.  “Expence  in  timber”  describes  his  adoption  of  crutches  as  an  investment  in the high-stakes early modern timber market.3 The Cripple’s merging of agential  objects  and  commercial  objects  exemplifies  a  union  that  occurs  throughout  the  play.  In  exploring  the  liveliness  of  things  in  the  commer-cial  environment  of  the  play,  I  suggest  that  this  text  carefully  attends  to  their  vitality,  while  the  play’s  characters  are  primarily  attentive  only  to  their  financial  power.  The  exception  is  the  Cripple,  who  seems  occa-sionally  capable  of  seeing  both  their  value  and  vitality.  Considering  how  and why he possesses such a capability illuminates the ethical limits and potential  of  object-oriented  theory,  specifically  as  it  relates  to  prosthesis  and disability.

description: The blog article discusses the communication challenges faced by international students working in Australia and provides tips to improve their communication skills. The article features Cong, an international student from Vietnam who now works as a postdoctoral researcher at Monash Sustainable Development Institute. It highlights the importance of effective communication skills in a professional context and the value that international students bring to Australian society and economy.The challenges Cong faced include adapting to the fast-paced turn-taking in conversations, lacking background knowledge about Australian lifestyle and culture, and struggling with different accents and expressions. The article emphasizes that communication skills involve not just language proficiency but also cultural awareness, interpersonal skills, and social competence.To improve communication skills, the article suggests several tips for international students, such as learning how to initiate, maintain, and follow up on English conversations, expanding background knowledge about Australian culture, practicing clear and professional communication, and socializing with different people in real contexts.The article concludes that communication skills are essential for professional success but require continuous learning and practice. Cong's experiences and insights aim to help other international students facing similar communication challenges.
Imagining Early Modern Wish-Lists and Their Environs

Publisher: name: punctum books

description: What was an early modern wish-list? Was it an object of inquiry, an  instrument  of  the  imagination,  or  one  of  cognition?  Why  did  these  catalogues  (incomplete  in  form,  and  projective  by  nature)  fascinate  early  modern  writers?  I  begin  with  these  questions  to  explore  the  status  of  the  wish-list  as  a  “thing”  that  enabled  thinkers  to  curate  new  ways  of  inter-acting  with  their  environs,  both  real  and  imagined.1  Wish-lists  became  instruments through which writers attempted to make intelligible a world that was fundamentally in flux, one in which new geographies were being discovered  through  travels  and  a  new  cosmology  was  displacing  both  earth  and  man  from  the  center  of  the  universe.  In  this  environment  of  uncertainty, the wish-list propelled naturalists and travelers to search for non-existent objects and propose new epistemological systems.

description: Cauchy's formula was originally established for random straight paths crossing a body $B \subset \mathbb{R}^{n}$ and basically relates the average chord length through $B$ to the ratio between the volume and the surface of the body itself. The original statement was later extended in the context of transport theory so as to cover the stochastic paths of Pearson random walks with exponentially distributed flight lengths traversing a bounded domain. Some heuristic arguments suggest that Cauchy's formula may also hold true for Pearson random walks with arbitrarily distributed flight lengths. For such a broad class of stochastic processes, we rigorously derive a generalized Cauchy's formula for the average length travelled by the walkers in the body, and show that this quantity depends indeed only on the ratio between the volume and the surface, provided that some constraints are imposed on the entrance step of the walker in $B$. Similar results are obtained also for the average number of collisions performed by the walker in $B$, and an extension to absorbing media is discussed.

description: An aspergillum sometimes looks something like this: And sometimes something like this: Here is one being used by a ram in a  late  thirteenth-century  book  of  hours: Mostly,  though,  the  aspergillum  was  used  by  Catholic  priests  to  sprinkle  holy  water  on  the  congregation.  After  the  use  of  holy  water  was  written  out  of  the  English  liturgy  in  the  1549  Prayer  Book,  the  aspergillum  (or  “holy water sprinkle,” as it was more commonly called) didn’t get used so much, in England, at least not as an element in the official liturgy.1 But it was  still  good  for  a  few  laughs,  as  in  the  following  jest  from  the  popular  joke book, Nugae venales (1642):Mulier Hugenota & Papistica quaenam?Hugenota est, quae omni tempore desiderat carnem; papistica quae saepe voluit & tractat aspergillum. [Which  is  a  Huguenot  woman,  and  which  a  Papist?  A  Huguenot  woman  is  one  who  at  all  times  longs  for  meat;  a  papist  woman  is  one who often craves, and handles, the aspergillum.]

description: It  started  out  with  an  exemplary  pedagogical  exercise:  “show  and tell.” As a way to commence our seminar, we were all asked to bring objects  to  the  SAA  seminar  room.

For the respondents, the task was far more open-ended: we could bring  any  object  we  wanted  that  might  exemplify  our  own  response  to  the  open  rubric  of  “objects  and  environs,”  itself  an  already  capacious  formulation.

OOO + HHH = Zany, Interesting, and Cute

description: My first venture with Punctum Books and the dynamic circle of scholars  associated  with  it  began  in  March  2011,  at  the  conference  on  “Animal, Vegetable, Mineral: Ethics and Objects in the Early Modern and Medieval  Periods”  hosted  at  george  Washington  university.  The  con-ference  led  to  a  volume  of  the  same  name,  and  my  article  “The  Renais-sance Res Publica of Furniture,” remains one of my favorite pieces, in part because  of  the  company  it  keeps  with  such  an  innovative  group  of  col-laborators. I am thrilled to rejoin the conversation in this volume, which brings  together  some  of  the  same  authors  with  other  scholars  investigat-ing Shakespearean thing worlds. My  response  scans  these  papers  through  the  scrim  of  two  triads  of  terms:  the  aesthetic  categories  zany,  interesting,  and  cute,  as  established  for  our  time  by  Sianne  Ngai;  and  the  methodological  categories  of  his-toricism, humanism,  and  hermeneutics.  At  stake  in  the  relation  between  OOO and HHH are the vectors of usage and forms of significance that bind objects  to  worlds,  to  actions,  and  to  language,  and  the  extent  to  which  Shakespearean  drama  and  its  criticism  accommodates,  exhibits,  and  reflects upon the traffic patterns that constitute the real and theatrical life of persons and things.

description: The widespread availability of quantum entanglement with photons, in the guise of two-mode squeezed states, can be attributed to the phenomenon of parametric down-conversion. A reinterpretation of this effect with macroscopic mechanical objects can offer a route towards a purely mechanical entanglement and the unique possibility of probing the quantum mechanical nature of our everyday classical world. In spite of this prospect, mechanical two-mode squeezed states have remained elusive due to the inability to recreate the nonlinear interaction at the heart of this phenomenon in the mechanical domain. To address this we have developed a parametric down-converter, in a mechanical resonator integrated with electrical functionality, which enables mechanical nonlinearities to be dynamically engineered to emulate the parametric down-conversion interaction. In this configuration, phonons are simultaneously generated in pairs in two macroscopic vibration modes which results in the amplification of their motion. In parallel, mechanical two-mode squeezed states are also created which exhibit fluctuations far below the thermal level of their constituent modes as well as harbouring correlations between the modes that become almost perfect as their amplification is increased. This remarkable observation of correlations between two massive phonon ensembles paves the way towards an entangled macroscopic mechanical system at the single phonon level.

Remembering Premodern Environs

description: In  the  early  1990s,  activist  and  poet  Wendell  Berry  character-ized the popular use of the term “environment” as “utterly preposterous.” The word, he says, “means that which surrounds, or encircles us; it means a world separate from ourselves, outside ourselves.” In outlining how the “real  state  of  things,”  which  “is  far  more  complex  and  intimate  and  inter-esting”  than  an  anthropocentric  term  like  “environment”  allows,  Berry  generates a list: “The real names of the environment,” he itemizes, “are the names  of  rivers  and  river  valleys;  creeks,  ridges,  and  mountains;  towns  and  cities;  lakes,  woodland,  lanes,  roads,  creatures,  and  people.”1  Nearly  contemporaneously,  the  philosopher  Michel  Serres  also  exhorted  us  to  “forget  the  word  environment.”  “If  the  soiled”  and  endangered  “world”  is  what we mean when we employ the term, then we have it all wrong, Serres says:  this  use  of  the  term  “assumes  that  we  humans  are  at  the  center  of  a  system  of  nature.”  He  instead  proposes  that  “we . . . place  things  in  the  center  and  us  at  the  periphery,  or  better  still,  things  all  around  and  us  within them like parasites.”2 Like Timothy Morton’s “Nature” (with a cap-ital  “N”),  “environment,”  Berry  and  Serres  indicate,  seems  to  be  “getting  in  the  way”  of  environmental  work  and  theory.3  We  would  do  well,  then,  to unlearn the term.

description: We present an analysis of multi-timescale variability in line-of-sight X-ray absorbing gas as a function of optical classification in a large sample of Seyfert AGN to derive the first X-ray statistical constraints for clumpy-torus models. We systematically search for discrete absorption events in the vast archive of RXTE monitoring of dozens of nearby type I and Compton-thin type II AGN. We are sensitive to discrete absorption events due to clouds of full-covering, neutral or mildly ionized gas with columns >~ 10^(22-25) cm^-2 transiting the line of sight. We detect 12 eclipse events in 8 objects, roughly tripling the number previously published from this archive. Peak column densities span ~ 4-26 x 10^22 cm^-2. Event durations span hours to months. The column density profile for an eclipsing cloud in NGC 3783 is doubly spiked, possibly indicating a cloud that is being tidally sheared. We infer the clouds' distances from the black hole to span ~0.3 -140 x 10^4 R_g. In seven objects, the clouds' distances are commensurate with the outer portions of Broad Line Regions (BLR), or the inner regions of infrared-emitting dusty tori. We discuss implications for cloud distributions in the context of clumpy-torus models. The probability of observing a source undergoing an absorption event, independent of constant absorption due to non-clumpy material, is 0.006(+0.160,-0.003) for type Is and 0.110(+0.461,-0.071) for type IIs.

description: We address the problem of evaluating the power spectrum of the velocity field of the ICM using only information on the plasma density fluctuations, which can be measured today by Chandra and XMM-Newton observatories. We argue that for relaxed clusters there is a linear relation between the rms density and velocity fluctuations across a range of scales, from the largest ones, where motions are dominated by buoyancy, down to small, turbulent scales: $(δρ_k/ρ)^2 = η_1^2 (V_{1,k}/c_s)^2$, where $δρ_k/ρ$ is the spectral amplitude of the density perturbations at wave number $k$, $V_{1,k}^2=V_k^2/3$ is the mean square component of the velocity field, $c_s$ is the sound speed, and $η_1$ is a dimensionless constant of order unity. Using cosmological simulations of relaxed galaxy clusters, we calibrate this relation and find $η_1\approx 1 \pm 0.3$. We argue that this value is set at large scales by buoyancy physics, while at small scales the density and velocity power spectra are proportional because the former are a passive scalar advected by the latter. This opens an interesting possibility to use gas density power spectra as a proxy for the velocity power spectra in relaxed clusters, across a wide range of scales.

description: The concept of extraterritorial-ity designates certain relationships between space, law, and representa-tion. This collection of essays explores contemporary manifesta-tions of extraterritoriality and the ways in which the concept has been put to use in various disciplines. Some of the essays were writ-ten especially for this volume, while others are brought together here for the first time. The inquiry into extraterri-toriality found in these essays is not confined to the established boundaries of political, conceptual, and representational territories or fields of knowledge; rather, it is an invitation to navigate the margins of the legal–juridical and the political, but also the edges of forms of repre-sentation and poetics.

The Rights of Man and the Rights of the Other
Creators: name: Levinas, Emmanuel
Publisher: name: punctum books
Year: 2016

description: The rights claimed under the title rights of man, in the rigorous and almost technical sense which that expres-sion has taken on since the eighteenth century — the right to respect for the human dignity of the individual, the rights to life, liberty, and equality before the law for all men — are based on an original sense of the right, or the sense of an original right. And this is the case, independently of the chronology of the causes, the psychological and social processes and the contingent variations of the rise of these rights to the light of thought. For today’s way of thinking, these rights are more legitimate than any legislation, morethan just any justification. They are probably, however complex their appli-cation to legal phenomena may be, the measure of all law and, no doubt, of its ethics. The rights of man are, in any case, one of the law’s latent principles, whose voice — sometimes loud, sometimes muffled by reality’s necessities, sometimes interrupting and shattering them — can be heard throughout his-tory, ever since the first stirrings of consciousness, ever since Mankind.

Assessing China's Legal Reforms
Creators: Liebman, Benjamin L.
Publisher: name: Columbia University
Year: 2009
Subjects: subject: Due process of law
subject: Population
subject: Transparency in government--Law and legislation
subject: International law
subject: Law reform
subject: Law
subject: FOS: Law

description: This essay will begin with a short summary of the dramatic changes in China's legal system during the reform era and will then discuss challenges that the legal system is confronting today. These include the need to balance populism with respect for legal institutions, excessive discretion, rising inequalities and unequal access to justice, lack of transparency, and the need to make courts more autonomous and independent. China is not alone in facing these challenges. Yet the ways that these problems are manifested in China differ significantly from those in other countries, reflecting both China's history and the institutional framework in which the Chinese legal system exists.

Itinerant magnetism in doped semiconducting beta-FeSi2 and CrSi2
Creators: name: Singh, David J.
name: Parker, David
Publisher: name: arXiv
Year: 2013
Subjects: subject: Materials Science (cond-mat.mtrl-sci)
subject: FOS: Physical sciences

description: Novel or unusual magnetism is a subject of considerable interest, particularly in metals and degenerate semiconductors. In such materials the interplay of magnetism, transport and other Fermi liquid properties can lead to fascinating physical behavior. One example is in magnetic semiconductors, where spin polarized currents may be controlled and used. We report density functional calculations predicting magnetism in doped semiconducting beta-FeSi2 and CrSi2 at relatively low doping levels particularly for n-type. In this case, there is a rapid cross-over to a half-metallic state as a function of doping level. The results are discussed in relation to the electronic structure and other properties of these compounds.

Non-Locality of Experimental Qutrit Pairs

description: The insight due to John Bell that the joint behavior of individually measured entangled quantum systems cannot be explained by shared information remains a mystery to this day. We describe an experiment, and its analysis, displaying non-locality of entangled qutrit pairs. The non-locality of such systems, as compared to qubit pairs, is of particular interest since it potentially opens the door for tests of bipartite non-local behavior independent of probabilistic Bell inequalities, but of deterministic nature.

Extra-Territoriality: Outside the State, Outside the Subject
Creators: name: Bernasconi, Robert
Publisher: name: punctum books
Year: 2016

description: In his preface to Beyond the Verse,written in 1981, Emmanuel Levinas poses the following provocative question: “Can democracy and the ‘rights of man’ divorce themselves without danger from their prophetic and ethical depth?”1 The question is clearly in-tended to threaten the comfortable consensus that has gathered around these icons of our time and, more specifically, to displace what have come to be known under the title the “rights of man” from the context of the European Enlightenment with which they are so often identified. Levinas per-forms this act of displacement in the first instance by relocating them within the tradition of the Jewish prophets. However, this effort ultimately leads him to a more radical displacement, one that amounts to a certain re-placing of them, a relocating of them elsewhere altogether. What does that mean? What are its implications for the doctrine of the “rights of man”?

China's Courts: Restricted Reform

Publisher: name: Columbia University
Year: 2007
Subjects: subject: International law
subject: Courts
subject: Authoritarianism
subject: Law reform
subject: Law
subject: FOS: Law

description: This essay surveys recent developments in China’s courts. Part I examines recent top-down reforms in China’s courts, highlighting what some advocates of a stronger judiciary consider signs of progress. Part II discusses new challenges that may be undermining courts’ already limited autonomy. Part III argues that the most significant changes in China’s courts are coming from the ground up, in particular from growing horizontal interactions among judges. Part IV asks whether recent developments suggest fundamental changes to courts’ power, and then returns to the two questions posed above: First, why has the Party-state permitted the courts to develop even limited new roles? Second, can courts play an effective role in a non-democratic governmental system? My focus is primarily on civil and administrative litigation, where reforms have been more significant than in the criminal justice system.

Much theoretical scholarship on courts focuses on why democratic systems permit and encourage the development of independent courts. Explanations include the knowledge that rulers may one day find themselves out of office, the desire to make commitments credible, and the need to constrain bureaucracies. Most such explanations have limited applicability in China, where courts are not designed to be independent of Party leadership. Scholarship on the role of courts in authoritarian societies has been limited. This essay seeks to add to this literature by exploring why a single-Party state might encourage court development, and whether courts can play significant new roles without necessarily challenging Party authority.
