Bradymerus triplehorni Grimm, new species
No full textBradymerus triplehorni Grimm, new species (Figs. 1 – 2) Description. Holotype male (Fig. 1). Oblong, ferruginous (probably teneral specimen), length 6.0 mm, width 2.4 mm. Genae not broader than eyes. Frons with deep supraorbital furrows, without supraorbital keels. Last 5 antennomeres forming a club. Pronotum wider than long, length/ width ratio 0.81; disc strongly convex transversely, moderately convex longitudinally, with medial impression, rough and partly confluent punctation, interspersed with sharp, sometimes keeled granules, before base punctures more separate; middle of base with nearly smooth depression; anterior angles acute, protruding; lateral margins with distinct crenulation. Elytra strongly convex transversely; puncture rows without striae, borders of deeply impressed punctures bearing 2 microgranules; all intervals with a row of distinct granules or nodules. Tibiae externally without keels, but densely denticulate or sharply granulate, otherwise coarsely, longitudinally punctured; anterior tibiae without tooth. Aedeagus as in Fig. 2. Paratype Female. Slightly larger, length 6.5 mm, width 2.6 mm, and darker, black; otherwise conforming with holotype. Diagnosis. Bradymerus triplehorni superficially resembles Bradymerus kinabalicus Schawaller (Schawaller 2006: fig. 45) in the general body characters, especially in the surface character of the pronotum and elytra. In B. kinabalicus, the last three antennomeres form a club, the male protibiae are equipped with a tooth, the pronotum is broader, the elytra are less convex transversely, somewhat flattened dorsally, the tibiae are smooth, and the shape of aedeagus is distinctly different (compare Fig. 2 with Schawaller 2006: fig. 110). Type Material. Holotype male (NME) and paratype female (CRG): West Malaysia, Kelantan, 70 km NW of Gua Musang, Mt. Chamah, 1900 m, Kampong Perias, 17.IV. – 9.V.2014, P. Čechovský lgt. Etymology. The author takes pleasure in naming this species in honor of Charles A. Triplehorn for his valuable contributions to the knowledge of the family Tenebrionidae.Published as part of Grimm, Roland, 2015, Bradymerus triplehorni Grimm (Coleoptera: Tenebrionidae), New Species from West Malaysia, pp. 78-79 in The Coleopterists Bulletin (mo 14) (mo 14) 69 on page 78, DOI: 10.1649/0010-065X-69.mo4.78, http://zenodo.org/record/491161
A connectionist and multivariate approach to science maps: the SOM, clustering and MDS applied to library and information science research
No full textThe visualization of scientific field structures is a classic of scientometric studies. This paper presents a domain analysis of the library and information science discipline based on author co-citation analysis (ACA) and journal cocitation analysis (JCA). The techniques used for map construction are the self-organizing map (SOM) neural algorithm, Ward’s clustering method and multidimensional scaling (MDS). The results of this study are compared with similar research developed by Howard White and Katherine McCain [1]. The methodologies used allow us to confirm that the subject domains identified in this paper are, as well,
present in our study for the corresponding period. The appearance of studies pertaining to library science reveals the relationship of this realm with information science. Especially significant is the presence of the management on the journal maps. From a methodological standpoint, meanwhile, we would agree with those authors who consider MDS, the SOM and clustering as complementary methods that provide representations of the same reality from different analytical points of view. Even so, the MDS representation is the one offering greater possibilities for the structural representation of the clusters in a set of variables

Mozart chez Grimm et Madame d'Epinay
No full textMartin Fontius : Mozart at the House of Grimm and Mme d'Epinay.
Mozart's stay in Paris, from March to September 1778 marks a turning point in his life. This article studies the relationship between his æsthetic ideas and those of the Encyclopædists, and the influence of his discussions with Grimm. The author insists on the importance, for musical æsthetics, of Grimm's Encyclopédie article poésie lyrique, and in particular his criticism of French opera, which has tended to be ignored by specialists, and of his article motif. Mozart's correspondence shows the importance of his discussions with Grimm which influenced him when writing Idomeneo in 1780-1781.Fontius Martin, Cornille Sabine.

Al Qaeda and the Islamic State’s Break: Strategic Strife or Lackluster Leadership?

Tricia Bacon & Elizabeth Grimm Arsenault (2017) Al Qaeda and the Islamic State's Break: Strategic Strife or Lackluster Leadership?, Studies in Conflict & Terrorism, DOI: 10.1080/1057610X.2017.1373895Employing counterfactuals to assess individual and systemic explanations for the split between al Qaeda and the Islamic State of Iraq and al-Sham (ISIS), this article concludes that individual leaders factor greatly into terrorist alliance outcomes. Osama bin Laden was instrumental in keeping al Qaeda and ISIS allied as he prioritized unity and handled internal disputes more deftly than his successor, Dr. Ayman al-Zawahiri. Although a troubled alliance, strategic differences between al Qaeda and ISIS were not sufficient to cause the split. Rather, the capabilities of al Qaeda’s leader determined the group’s ability to prevent alliance ruptures
