We present the WD2014 chronology for the upper part (0-2850 m; 31.2 ka BP) of the West Antarctic Ice Sheet (WAIS) Divide (WD) ice core. The chronology is based on counting of annual layers observed in the chemical, dust and electrical conductivity records. These layers are caused by seasonal changes in the source, transport, and deposition of aerosols. The measurements were interpreted manually an

This work presents a digital calibration technique in continuous-time (CT) ΔΣ analog to digital (A/D) converters. The converter is clocked at 144MHz with a low oversampling ratio (OSR) of only 8. Dynamic element matching (DEM) is not efficient to linearize the digital to analog converter (DAC) when the OSR is very low. Therefore, non-idealities in the outermost multi-bit feedback DAC are measured

A themed journal issue which contains six commissioned essays + an editorial about the phenomenon of sex in the cinema, television and on the internet since the historical breakthrough of sex research by Alfred C. Kinsey in the late 1940s. The essays span a wide array of topics including, to name a few, the developments within obscenity law in the US, sex in the work of European art cinema auteurs

Film International (published by Intellect, Bristol, UK) is dedicating a special journal issue to “Making Movies in Europe: Production, Industry, Policy” and cordially invites proposals on this theme. Studies of contemporary as well as historical filmmaking practices are welcome. Possible areas include, but are not limited to:-the specific workings of national cinema industries (e.g. specific nati

We consider the problem of link capacity dimensioning and bandwidth allocation in networks that support elastic flows and maintain proportional fairness among these flows. We assume that a certain allocated bandwidth to a user demand generates revenue for the network operator. On the other hand, the operator incurs a capacity dependent cost for each link in the network. The operator's profit is th

Fuel cells produce low quantities of local emissions, if any, and are therefore one of the most promising alternatives to internal combustion engines as the main power source in future vehicles. It is likely that urban buses will be among the first commercial applications for fuel cells in vehicles. This is due to the fact that urban buses are highly visible for the public, they contribute signifi

This paper reports the interim results of an ongoing systematic review of the available evidence for the effectiveness of nursing care for people with Parkinson's disease (PD). Five clinical and four health-economic evaluations suggest that the clinical and cost effectiveness of nursing care for PD remain inconclusive. This is in contrast to clinical experience and may be due to issues related to

We have previously reported that the xyloside 2-(6-hydroxynaphthyl) β-D-xylopyranoside (XylNapOH), in contrast to 2-naphthyl β-D-xylopyranoside (XylNap), specifically reduces tumor growth both in vitro and in vivo. Although there are indications that this could be mediated by the xyloside-primed glycosaminoglycans (GAGs) and that these differ in composition depending on xyloside and cell type, det

The integrity of the white matter is as important as that of the gray matter and white matter pathology has commonly been reported in elderly subjects and in patients with organic dementia. The aim of the present study is to develop and evaluate an improved method for reliable tomographic measurements of absolute white and gray matter blood flow. The new tomographic method (modified Xe-SPECT) is b

The degenerative process in Alzheimer´s disease (AD) follows a temporal and topographic pattern of early and accentuated involvement of temporal limbic, parietal and posterior cingulate cortices. We have studied a pedigree with four generations suffering from early onset AD linked to a presenilin-1 gene mutation. This family now contains 7 AD cases, neuropathologically confirmed in four cases of t

This article examines the Swedish test translation of Luke9:51–19:28 and Galatians, which was published by the Swedish Bible Society in2015. It analyzes how and to what extent the translators apply the fundamentaltranslation principle (moderate formal equivalence) and the six translationdirectives (on concordance, figures of speech, rhythm, modern language,gender-inclusive language, and faithfulne

Gender-inclusive language has been consciously applied in almost all significant English Bible translations over the last thirty years. It has only recently been introduced into Swedish Bible translation practices, however, with the test translation of Luke 9:51–19:28 and Galatians issued by the Swedish Bible Society. This fact signals that the next Swedish Bible translation will implement genderi
