Dilemmas of political correctness by Moller, D

“…Political correctness thus sets up dilemmas I wish to set out (but not, alas, resolve). The cliché is that political correctness tramples on rights to free-speech, as if the potential loss were merely expressive; the real issue is that in filtering public discourse, political correctness may defeat our own substantive aims.…”

The Consolatio ad Liuiam and literary history by Heyworth, SJ

“…The poem sets itself soon after the funeral, but is it conceived as genuine consolation, a rhetorical exercise, or a commentary on the Julio-Claudian era? The historical information in the poem is strikingly accurate; by comparison of it with Dio, it becomes clear that the Consolatio could easily have been written in the immediate aftermath of Drusus’ death. …”

Total synthesis of (-)-nakadomarin A. by Jakubec, P, Cockfield, D, Dixon, D

“…Several unprecedented chemical transformations were developed, including a highly Z-selective, eight-membered-ring-forming intramolecular Julia-Kocienski reaction, a highly diastereoselective intramolecular furan/iminium ion cyclization, and a sulfonic acid-controlled Z-selective macrocyclic ring-closing metathesis. …”

Punctum-Punk-Punctum: On the Poetry of Martín Gambarotta by Bollig, B

“…There is, though, a mismatch between Gambarotta’s poems’ effectiveness and the apparent banality of much of the text. Despite reusing clichés and slogans from the contemporary media, Gambarotta’s collection creates striking thematic, sonic, and visual effects on the reader.…”

The assimilation of multi-type information for seasonal precipitation forecasting using modular neural network by Junaida, Sulaiman, Noorhuzaimi@Karimah, Mohd Noor, Suryanti, Awang

“…The rainfall occurrences are triggered by different types of climate sources not restricted to past precipitation values but may include climate indices such as El Nino/Southern Oscillation, Indian Ocean Dipole, and Madden Julian Oscillation. In this paper, we investigated the effectiveness of assimilating two sources of inputs for heavy precipitation forecasting using modular neural network. …”

Nanocarbon-based electrochemical systems for sensing, electrocatalysis, and energy storage by Mao, Xianwen, Rutledge, Gregory C., Hatton, Trevor Alan

“…Carbon materials are important for many electrochemical applications due to their tunable electron-transfer and charge-storage properties. Judicious structural manipulation of carbon to modulate its chemical, electronic, and crystalline properties is key to the rational design of many high-performance electrochemical devices. …”

Inferences from Simple Models of Slow, Convectively Coupled Processes by Emanuel, Kerry Andrew

“…A framework for conceptual understanding of slow, convectively coupled disturbances is developed and applied to several canonical tropical problems, including the water vapor content of an atmosphere in radiative-convective equilibrium, the relationship between convective precipitation and column water vapor, Walker-like circulations, self-aggregation of convection, and the Madden-Julian oscillation. The framework is a synthesis of previous work that developed four key approximations: boundary layer energy quasi equilibrium, conservation of free-tropospheric moist and dry static energies, and the weak temperature gradient approximation. …”

Reduction of tropical land region precipitation variability via transpiration by Lee, Jung-Eun, Lintner, Benjamin R., Neelin, J. David, Jiang, Xianan, Gentine, Pierre, Boyce, C. Kevin, Fisher, Joshua B., Perron, J. Taylor, Kubar, Terence L., Lee, Jeonghoon, Worden, John

“…It is also shown that surface turbulent fluxes over tropical rainforests are highly correlated with incoming solar energy but only weakly correlated with wind speed, possibly decoupling land precipitation from large-scale disturbances like the Madden-Julian Oscillation.…”

High-efficiency degenerate four-wave mixing in triply resonant nanobeam cavities by Lin, Zin, Alcorn, Thomas, Loncar, Marko, Johnson, Steven G., Rodriguez, Alejandro W.

“…We find that maximum steady-state conversion is hypersensitive to frequency mismatch, resulting in high-efficiency limit cycles that arise from the presence of a homoclinic bifurcation in the solution phase space, but that a judicious choice of incident frequencies and input powers, in conjuction with self-phase and cross-phase modulation, can restore high-efficiency steady-state conversion even for large frequency mismatch. …”
