MEGAN phylogram of plant components in Yatong Yili Wan capsules (TCM-016).
No full text<p>The data was generated using <i>trnL</i> c/h fusion primers and HTS using the Roche GS Junior. 2123 reads were queried against GenBank and parsed through MEGAN, SAP and QIIME (see <a href="http://www.plosgenetics.org/article/info:doi/10.1371/journal.pgen.1002657#s3" target="_blank">Methods</a>). The assignments of both MEGAN and SAP (with posterior support) are shown. Size of red node labels is proportional to number of sequence reads at each taxonomic level.</p

Multiple iterations : mapping the trace
No full textThis paper explores the concept that individual dancers leave traces in a choreographer’s body of work and similarly, that dancers carry forward residue of embodied choreographies into other working processes. This presentation will be grounded in a study of the multiple iterations of a programme of solo works commissioned in 2008 from choreographers John Jasperse, Jodi Melnick, Liz Roche and Rosemary Butcher and danced by the author. This includes an exploration of the development by John Jasperse of themes from his solo into the pieces PURE (2008) and Truth, Revised Histories, Wishful Thinking and Flat Out Lies (2009); an adaptation of the solo Business of the Bloom by Jodi Melnick in 2008 and a further adaptation of Business of the Bloom by this author in 2012. It will map some of the developments that occurred through a number of further performances over five years of the solo Shared Material on Dying by Liz Roche and the working process of the (uncompleted) solo Episodes of Flight by Rosemary Butcher. The purpose is to reflect back on authorship in dance, an art form in which lineages of influence can often be clearly observed. Normally, once a choreographic work is created and performed, it is archived through video recording, notation and/or reviews. The dancer is no longer called upon to represent the dance piece within the archive and thus her/his lived presence and experiential perspective disappears. The author will draw on the different traces still inhabiting her body as pathways towards understanding how choreographic movement circulates beyond this moment of performance. This will include the interrogation of ownership of choreographic movement, as once it becomes integrated in the body of the dancer, who owns the dance? Furthermore, certain dancers, through their individual physical characteristics and moving identities, can deeply influence the formation of choreographic signatures, a proposition that challenges the sole authorship role of the choreographer in dance production. This paper will be delivered in a presentation format that will bleed into movement demonstrations alongside video footage of the works and auto-ethnographic accounts of dancing experience. A further source of knowledge will be drawn from extracts of interviews with other dancers including Sara Rudner, Rebecca Hilton and Catherine Bennett
Die Schreibweisen der Sophie von La Roche
No full textInternational audienceDer Beitrag führt exemplarisch die Verwendung von drei unterschiedlichen Schreibweisen durch Sophie von La Roche (1730–1807) vor. Während das Komisch‐Parodistische vor allem zu Beginn ihrer Karriere greifbar ist, ist das lebenslange Festhalten am Moralisch‐Didaktischen und am Hybriden als typisches Kennzeichen ihres Schreibens, aber auch als eine Ursache für ihre immer stärkere Marginalisierung im literarischen Betrieb des ausgehenden 18. Jahrhunderts zu begreifen.The article analyses the use of three different modes of writing (‘Schreibweisen’) by Sophie von La Roche (1730–1807). It is argued that at the beginning of her literary career La Roche wrote in a comic‐parodistic style, while moral‐didactic and hybrid writing are typical characteristics of her entire œuvre. La Roche's use of moral‐didactic and hybrid modes needs to be seen as one of the reasons for the growing marginalisation of the author at the end of the eighteenth century
A comparison between e-government practices in Taiwan and New Zealand.
No full textFew studies have focused on comparing the state of e-government in Western- and Non-Western settings, where the political, social, economic, and cultural environments can be markedly different. This paper compares the views of local authority policymakers in Taiwan and New Zealand, in order to judge the sophistication of their e-government initiatives via the formal and informal policies underpinning website development.
Good level of agreement were observed between the Taiwanese and New Zealander respondents for the high levels of significance they attached to 3 key issues, which the authors argue are critical for successful e-government: Accessibility, Security and Privacy. Similarly, the policymakers agreed on a medium level of significance for the 7 key issues: E-procurement, Digital Divide, Private Sector, Taxation, Cultural Obstacles, IT Workforce, and Social Effects (and on a low level of significance for E-Tailing). It was concluded that government policymakers in both countries, in an era of commercial online social networking, are continuing to favour pushing(what they deem to be important) information to citizens, rather than creating collaborative service channels with citizens, contractors and suppliers or integrating separate service processes to satisfy all stakeholders. An attendant lack of commitment to promoting heightened (e-)democracy was also noted, especially in New Zealand
Slow Dynamics in turbulent Helium flows
No full textThe presence of slow dynamics is a recurrent feature of many turbulent flows. This behaviour can be created by instabilities of the mean flow or by other mechanisms. In this work we analyze the behavior of a highly turbulent Helium flow (maximum Reynolds number Re=10^8, with a Reynolds based on the Taylor microscale Re_\lambda=2000). We have performed velocity measurements using home-made Pitot tubes. The analysis of the data series reveals that below the injection frequencies there are different dynamical regimes with time scales two orders of magnitude below the injection scale
