Poems of Sheikh Muhammad al-Ghaly Ba
This volume contains seven poems handwritten by Muhammad al-Ghāli Ba. According to the author's son, Mountaga Ba, the poems were probably composed in the mid-1970s a time when the author lived in Mauritania, while working at the country's national radio station and serving as a special counsel to then president Moktar Ould Daddah (1924–2003). The poems adress various issues. The first is a call to action addressed to the Mauritianian youth, urging them to join in the collective work for the development of the country. The second poem is a hagiography on Ceerno Ahmad Nene Ba of Kaedi (Mauritania). The poem eulogizes the virtues of the patron. The third describes the event of Sharif Muhammad al-Habib's visit to the region of Fuuta region (Senegal), namely the village of Pate Galo. The fourth poem contains greetings and expresions of love addressed to the author's friends in the town of Kaedi. The fifth poem is a remembrance about good times. The author reminisces and praises the qualities of a woman named Jaari.The sixth poem describes one afternoon journey of the author.

Decoded: reimagining Sue Clowes: a student-led fashion publication exploring material histories through styling, photography and editorial design
Decoded: Reimagining Sue Clowes is a student-led fashion magazine created by second-year BA Fashion Design students at Winchester School of Art. Produced in collaboration with The Winchester Gallery and launched alongside the exhibition Collecting Sue Clowes: 1980s Fashion and Textile Design, the magazine explores how archival research can inspire contemporary fashion design.Through styling, creative direction, photography, and editorial writing, students reinterpreted garments from the archive of collector Mikey Bean, reimagining the rebellious spirit of the 1980s through a modern lens.Every aspect of the publication from concept development to final design was created by students in collaboration with staff. The project was supported by:•Shaun Cole (curator and contextual advisor)•Perry Wong (creative direction support)•Dave Gibbons (technical photography support)•Matthew Coats (editor and project lead)Decoded launched publicly at the exhibition opening on 6 December 2024 and was exhibited in the West Side Foyer. It represents a hybrid creative research and knowledge exchange output between students, academic staff, and archival partners.This project also featured in an episode of the WSA Exchange podcast, exploring the design process, archival reinterpretation, and pedagogical insights

Small, very depressed, discoidal, adult diameter 3.63–5.76 mm, height 1.42– 2.76 mm, diameter:height 1.79–2.85 (n = 67, measured in four different populations; Table 3). Spire almost flat (Fig. 25 A), sometimes concave, usually with only the mammillate, tilted protoconch projecting. Embryonic shell (Fig. 25D) approx. 2–2.25 whorls, microscopically malleate, junction between embryonic shell and teleoconch evident with development of widely spaced axial costae on teleoconch.Teleoconch comprising2.25 whorls, very rapidly increasing, convex, suture deeply impressed. Aperture circular, last whorl descending steeply nearing aperture, peristome simple, continuous and free. Umbilicus very wide, exposing all the whorls (Fig. 25 C). Periostracum glossy and lacquer-like with lamellate axial costae at regular intervals, 47–63 (n = 14) on last whorl in Grootvadersbosch population but varies between populations (Table 3), which produce six spiral rows of simple, very long and robust hairs around the periphery; intervals between costae with six–eight microscopic axial threads. Shell translucent reddish brown, honey brown or yellowish-white when fresh. Living animal. Variable in colour between populations from creamy white with light brown pigmentation on tentacles to almost black, underside of foot creamy white. OPERCULUM (Fig. 25 F, I). Duplex and shallowly concave; multispiral lamella of outer portion with five low whorls, thickened horizontal ridge near base of lamellar blade runs parallel to disc surface, a long fringe of fused bristles and a second very short fringe below it emanate from this ridge; main fringe grows upwards (i.e., parallel to lamellar blade) and then downwards, leaving a deep, wide groove between fringe and blade of lamella; lamellar blade projects above level of fringe and is very thin; fringe of each whorl fused to lamellar blade of next whorl; fringe of outermost whorl overlaps disc slightly and is reflexed over peristome in life although operculum is retractile. RADULA (Fig. 25 E). Rachidian with five cusps, middle one longer than 2 cusps on either side of it; first and second lateral teeth with five cusps (5 th sometimes vestigial), the third cusp from centre the largest. PENIS (Fig. 25 G–H). Shaft more or less cylindrical and slightly flattened dorsoventrally, distal half slightly expanded on left side, numerous annular rugae, distal end smooth but not bulbous, intromittent organ short. Distribution and habitat Western Cape, evidently endemic to Langeberg mountain range in Cape Fold Mountain belt, southfacing slopes and on northern side of range in Montagu area (Fig. 5). Diverse vegetation types: patches of Western Cape Afrotemperate Forest (von Maltitz et al. 2003) and riverine fynbos, in leaf litter. Remarks In terms of its hairy periostracum Chondrocyclus langebergensis sp. nov. resembles Afrocyclus isipingoensis gen. et comb. nov., but the molecular analyses placed C. langebergensis sp. nov. and C. kevincolei sp. nov. in a well-supported monophyletic clade, termed the Overberg clade, within the Chondrocyclus s.s. radiation (Cole et al. 2019; Fig. 1). The major morphological feature distinguishing this clade from A. isipingoensis gen. et comb. nov. is that the second lateral tooth of the radula has three large cusps (Fig. 25 E) as opposed to two in A. isipinoensis comb. nov. (Fig. 27 E). Differences between C. langebergensis sp. nov. and C. kevincolei sp. nov. are discussed under the latter species. The Overberg clade and the other taxon in the southwestern Cape, C. convexiusculus, have not been recorded sympatrically although they occur in close proximity inland in the upper Breede River valley and near the coast (Fig. 5). Other taxa also contain distinct clades in either the Hottentots-Holland Mountains or the Overberg which do not occur in the other region (e.g., Gouws et al. 2010; Herbert & Moussalli 2010; McDonald et al. 2012; Daniels et al. 2013) and the Breede River valley is considered an important barrier to gene flow (Weimarck 1941; Linder 2003; McDonald & Daniels 2012).Published as part of Cole, Mary L., 2019, Revision of Chondrocyclus s. l.

Structural properties and impedance spectroscopy of the perovskite-like stagnate (Ba,Sr)SnO3
El estudio de materiales tipo perovskita ha tenido en los últimos años una trascendencia fundamental en la investigación científica y aplicaciones tecnológicas, debido a sus propiedades eléctricas y magnéticas a diferentes temperaturas. Por esta razón, es de nuestro interés estudiar las propiedades estructurales, eléctricas y de transporte presentes en el estanato tipo perovskita (Ba,Sr)SnO3. Luego de sintetizar el compuesto Ba1-xSrxSnO3 (0 x 1) mediante el método de reacción en fase sólida, se obtuvieron siete comprimidos con diferentes porcentajes de concentración de óxidos precursores. La estructura cristalina se estudió a través de experimentos de Difracción de Rayos-X (DRX) y refinamiento Rietveld. El tamaño de grano aproximado se concluyó a partir de observaciones con microscopía electrónica de barrido (MEB). La respuesta de la impedancia en función de la frecuencia a temperatura ambiente y para algunas muestras a bajas temperaturas se obtuvo mediante la técnica de Espectroscopía de impedancia (EI) entre 10 mHz y 0,1 MHz y de allí se encontró la respuesta al transporte eléctrico de cada dopaje y el circuito equivalente respectivo mediante el ajuste de los diagramas Cole-Cole. Las medidas de polarización eléctrica y la constante dieléctrica para BaSnO3 y SrSnO3 fueron determinadas usando un polarímetro eléctrico (Radiant Technologies, model 609A). / Abstract. In last year’s, the study of perovskite materials has attracted great interest of researchers in the ceramics area, due their physical and chemical properties at several temperatures, which are required for technological applications. In this work we perform an exhaustive study of structural, electrical and transport phenomena in samples of the perovskite stagnate (Ba,Sr)SnO3. Synthesis of the Ba1-xSrxSnO3 (0 x 1) compounds were performed by the solid state reaction recipe. Seven tablets were obtained with different percentages of concentration of precursor oxides. The crystallographic structure was analyzed by X-ray diffraction (DRX) and Rietveld-like refinement. The approximate grain size was found from experiments of Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM). The stoichiometric composition was established from Energy Dispersive X-ray (EDX) and the response of the impedance versus frequency at room and low temperatures were obtained by the Impedance Spectroscopy technique (EI) from 10 mHz up to 0,1 MHz), also obtaining the respective equivalent circuit using the fitting the Cole-Cole diagrams. The electric polarization measurements and the dielectric constant for SrSnO3 and BaSnO3 were determined through polarization experiments, using a Radiant Technologies polarimeter.Maestrí
Longitudinal analysis of serum neutralization of SARS-CoV-2 Omicron BA.2, BA.4, and BA.5 in patients receiving monoclonal antibodies
The emergence of Omicron sublineages impacts the therapeutic efficacy of anti-severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) monoclonal antibodies (mAbs). Here, we evaluate neutralization and antibody-dependent cellular cytotoxicity (ADCC) activities of 6 therapeutic mAbs against Delta, BA.2, BA.4, and BA.5. The Omicron subvariants escape most antibodies but remain sensitive to bebtelovimab and cilgavimab. Consistent with their shared spike sequence, BA.4 and BA.5 display identical neutralization profiles. Sotrovimab is the most efficient at eliciting ADCC. We also analyze 121 sera from 40 immunocompromised individuals up to 6 months after infusion of Ronapreve (imdevimab + casirivimab) or Evusheld (cilgavimab + tixagevimab). Sera from Ronapreve-treated individuals do not neutralize Omicron subvariants. Evusheld-treated individuals neutralize BA.2 and BA.5, but titers are reduced. A longitudinal evaluation of sera from Evusheld-treated patients reveals a slow decay of mAb levels and neutralization, which is faster against BA.5. Our data shed light on antiviral activities of therapeutic mAbs and the duration of effectiveness of Evusheld pre-exposure prophylaxis
Boundary Algebra: A Simpler Approach to Boolean Algebra and the Sentential Connectives
Boundary algebra [BA] is a algebra of type , and a simplified notation for Spencer-Brown’s (1969) primary algebra. The syntax of the primary arithmetic [PA] consists of two atoms, () and the blank page, concatenation, and enclosure between ‘(‘ and ‘)’, denoting the primitive notion of distinction. Inserting letters denoting, indifferently, the presence or absence of () into a PA formula yields a BA formula. The BA axioms are A1: ()()= (), and A2: “(()) [abbreviated ‘⊥’] may be written or erased at will,” implying (⊥)=(). The repeated application of A1 and A2 simplifies any PA formula to either () or ⊥. The basis for BA is B1: abc=bca (concatenation commutes & associates); B2, ⊥a=a (BA has a lower bound, ⊥); B3, (a)a=() (BA is a complemented lattice); and B4, (ba)a=(b)a (implies that BA is a distributive lattice). BA has two intended models: (1) the Boolean algebra 2 with base set B={(),⊥}, such that () ⇔ 1 [dually 0], (a) ⇔ a′, and ab ⇔ a∪b [a∩b]; and (2) sentential logic, such that () ⇔ true [false], (a) ⇔ ~a, and ab ⇔ a∨b [a∧b]. BA is a self-dual notation, facilitates a calculational style of proof, and simplifies clausal reasoning and Quine’s truth value analysis. BA resembles C.S. Peirce’s graphical logic, the symbolic logics of Leibniz and W.E. Johnson, the 2 notation of Byrne (1946), and the Boolean term schemata of Quine (1982).Boundary algebra; boundary logic; primary algebra; primary arithmetic; Boolean algebra; calculation proof; G.
