Euthanasia among quadriplegics: a containment of autonomy in disability cinema by Cheang, Wai Yee

“…Me Before You is the latest incarnation in a train of disability films whereby a quadriplegic character opts for euthanasia, and subsequently prevails in his or her decision. In an attempt to gain an understanding of this phenomenon in films about disabilities, I observe in three films that follow this narrative trajectory – Whose Life is it, Anyway? …”

A signal through the noise: accurate determination of hydrogen atom positions in crystal structures and optimisation of Laue neutron diffraction methods by Sackman, GA

“…This has allowed a variety of chemically and crystallographically interesting studies to be performed, specifically:</p> <p>Determining the novel geometry around transition-metal hydride centers, where the signal due to the hydrides can be more confidently distinguished than in an X-ray diffraction experiment; using Laue neutron derived difference Fourier maps to demonstrate that proton disorder can be mistakenly assigned in X-ray derived crystallographic models; performing variable temperature Laue neutron diffraction to identify proton migratory behaviour across short-strong hydrogen bonds; reassigning the space group of a previously reported cobalt(III) coordination complex, in which the lack of inversion symmetry becomes apparent upon accurate determination of the hydrogen atom positions; using Laue neutron diffraction data to more confidently classify systems as co-crystals or salts.…”

On fatal competition and the nature of distributive inferences by Bar-Lev, Moshe E., Fox, Danny

“…Abstract Denić (2018, 2019, To appear) observes that the availability of distributive inferences—for sentences with disjunction embedded in the scope of a universal quantifier—depends on the size of the domain quantified over as it relates to the number of disjuncts. Based on her observations, she argues that probabilistic considerations play a role in the computation of implicatures. …”

Costly information acquisition, social networks, and asset prices : experimental evidence by Halim, Edward, Riyanto, Yohanes Eko, Roy, Nilanjan

“…Social communication crowds out information production as a result of an agent's temptation to free ride on the signals purchased by her neighbors. Although information exchange among traders increases trading volume, improves liquidity, and enhances the ability of asset prices to reflect the available information in the market, it fails to improve price informativeness. …”
