    J. et F. VIRMONT, La grotte de Cottier à Retournac (Haute-Loire). Les premiers résultats des fouilles entreprises depuis 1967 à la grotte de Cottier, tout en confirmant l'essentiel des observations faites par P. Bout au cours de sondages préliminaires, apportent des précisions intéressantes sur l'occupation humaine des trois niveaux archéologiques : le niveau I appartient vraisemblablement au Magdalénien supérieur, le niveau II peut être attribué au faciès Badegoulien, avec une industrie à raclettes ; le niveau III, qui contient surtout une industrie sur os, semble comme le niveau II contemporain du stade arctique de Nan-sous-Thil, qui suit immédiatement l'interstade de Lascaux.Virmont Jacques, Virmont F. La grotte de Cottier à Retournac (Haute-Loire). Etude préliminaire. In: Revue archéologique du Centre de la France, tome 12, fascicule 1-2, 1973. pp. 51-62

    Le stade arctique de Cottier : une nouvelle climatozone würmienne

    No full text
    The arctic rodents fauna (Dicrostonyx) from Cottier is contemporaneous of a Badegoulian industry (20 350 ± 380 and 18 550 ± 550 B.P.) and determinates a new climatic zone between the Rochebertier and Lascaux zones.La faune de rongeurs arctiques (Dicrostonyx ) de Cottier, contemporaine d'une industrie apparentée au Badegoulien datée de 20 350 ± 380 et 18 550 ± 550 B.P. permet de distinguer une nouvelle climatozone intercalée entre celles de Rochebertier et de Lascaux. Cet épisode climatique correspond au Würm IIIb de F. Bordes et au Würm IV de Bourdier F.Chaline Jean. Le stade arctique de Cottier : une nouvelle climatozone würmienne. In: Nouvelles archives du Muséum d'histoire naturelle de Lyon, tome 14, 1976. pp. 43-48

    Role of neutrophils in the early shaping of the Leishmania major specific immune response in experimental murine cutaneous Leishmaniasis

    No full text
    The development of a protective immune response to microorganisms involves complex interactions between the host and the pathogen. The murine model of infection with Leishmania major (L. major) allows the study of the factors leading to the development of a protective immune response. Following infection with the protozoan parasite L. major, most strains of mice heal their lesions, while a few fail to control infection, both processes linked to the development of specific T helper subsets. The early events occurring during the first days following parasite inoculation are thought to be critical in the development of the Leishmania-specific immune response. Neutrophils are the first cells arriving massively to the site of infection, and recent evidence points to their role as organizers of the immune response, yet their specific role in this process remains elusive. Through interactions with cells present at the parasite inoculation site, and possibly within the draining lymph nodes, neutrophils could have an impact not only on the recruitment of inflammatory cells but also on the activation of local as well as newly migrated cells that will be crucial in shaping the Leishmania-specific immune response

    Variations on the Author

    No full text
    “Variations on the Author” discusses two of Eduardo Coutinho’s recent films (Um Dia na Vida, from 2010, and Últimas Conversas, posthumously released in 2015) and their contribution to the general question of documentary authorship. The director’s filmography is characterized by a consistent yet self-effacing form of authorial self-inscription: Coutinho often features as an interviewer that rather than express opinions propels discourses; an interviewer that is good at listening. This mode of self-inscription characterizes him as an author who is not expressive but who is nonetheless markedly present on the screen. In Um Dia na Vida, however, Coutinho is completely absent form the image, while Últimas Conversas, on the contrary, includes a confessional prologue that moves the director from the margins to the center of his films. This article examines the ways in which these works stand out in the filmography of a director who offers new insights into the notion of cinematic authorship

    Also By The Same Author: AKTiveAuthor, a Citation Graph Approach to Name Disambiguation

    No full text
    The desire for definitive data and the semantic web drive for inference over heterogeneous data sources requires co-reference resolution to be performed on those data. In particular, name disambiguation is required to allow accurate publication lists, citation counts and impact measures to be determined. This paper describes a graph-based approach to author disambiguation on large-scale citation networks. Using self-citation, co-authorship and document source analyses, AKTiveAuthor clusters papers, achieving precision of 0.997 and recall of 0.818 over a test group of eight surname clusters

    John F. Kennedy telegram to Roosevelt

    No full text
    Jersey Homesteads (later the Borough of Roosevelt) was established in the 1930s as an agro-industrial cooperative community. It was established specifically for urban Jewish garment workers, many of whom had emigrated from Europe. President John F. Kennedy sent a telegram to the citizens of Roosevelt, New Jersey, apologizing for not being able to attend the memorial dedication in honor of former President Franklin Delano Roosevelt. (Jersey Homesteads became Roosevelt in 1945 in honor of the president.) President Kennedy expressed his gratitude to the people of Roosevelt for constructing the memorial, and commented that it will serve as a constant reminder of Roosevelt's good works

    Logarithmic variance profiles and the corresponding f-1 spectra of temperature fluctuations in turbulent Rayleigh-Bénard convection

    No full text
    We report experimental results for the temperature variance 2(z) and the corresponding frequency spectra P(f) in turbulent Rayleigh-Bénard convection (RBC) in a cylindrical sample of aspect ratioT= D/L = 1:00 (D = 1:12 m is the diameter and L = 1:12 m the height). The measurements were conducted in the Rayleigh-number range 1011 < Ra < 1:35 1014 and Pr ' 0:8. For Ra = 1:35x1014, 2(z) could be described well by a logarithmic dependence on the vertical position z in a range of z 1 < z < z 2 with z 1 ' 70 and z 2 = 0:1L. Here L=(2Nu) is the thickness of a thin thermal sublayer adjacent to the horizontal plate where the heat flux (denoted by the Nusselt number Nu) is carried mostly by thermal diffusion. In the log layer, we found that the temperature spectra had a significant frequency range over which P(f) f with close to 1. As Ra decreased, increased so that the log layer became thinner. At Ra = 2:05 1011, z 2 < z 1 and therefore there was no range for a log layer. Correspondingly, the temperature spectrum near the horizontal plate did not have the f1 scaling form either

    Mapping the Discipline of the Olympic Games An Author-Cocitation Analysis

    No full text
    The authors conducted an author cocitation analysis on prominent authors writing about the Olympics during the 1990s. Author cocitation is an established bibliometric technique that can be used to measure the relative similarities of topics written about by the cited authors. This enables a visual representation of the “intellectual space” of the discipline, in this case the Olympics, to be created for the period under review. So core and peripheral research areas are identified, along with their major contributors. The representation appears as a two-dimensional cluster-enhanced map. Subject expertise was then applied to the results to place labels on the generated clusters of authors and their topics
