Abstract:
The Tailenders is a feature-length documentary written and directed by Los Angeles-based independent filmmaker Adele Horne. The film introduces viewers to Global Recordings Network (GRN), an evangelical Christian missionary organization devoted to translating Bible stories into all of the languages of the world. Focusing on oral transmission by working with native speakers of indigenous languages, GRN makes recordings of the stories and distributes them in low-tech formats using “hand-crank” technologies. The film emphasizes the linkages between Christian missionary groups and processes of cap

Abstract:
In finance, the momentum spillovers of listed firms is well acknowledged. Only few studies predicted the trend of one firm in terms of its relevant firms. A common strategy of the pilot work is to adopt graph convolution networks (GCNs) with some predefined firm relations. However, momentum spillovers are propagated via a variety of firm relations, of which the bridging importance varies with time. Restricting to several predefined relations inevitably makes noise and thus misleads stock predictions. In addition, traditional GCNs transfer and aggregate the peer influences without considering t

Abstract Thin films of ferroelectric materials have been investigated for various applications because of their high dielectric constants, as well as piezoelectric and ferroelectric properties. Ferroelectricity has been explored for memory applications because of its two stable states after releasing an electric field, depending on the direction. Perovskite-based ferroelectrics have been studied for the last 30 years for these applications and have already been commercialized. However, the degradation of their ferroelectricity with decreasing film thickness (below 30 nm) makes high-density mem

Abstract:
The rapid Cretaceous diversification of flowering plants remains Darwin's 'abominable mystery' despite numerous fossil flowers discovered in recent years. Wildfires were frequent in the Cretaceous and many such early flower fossils are represented by charcoalified fragments, lacking complete delicate structures and surface textures, making their similarity to living forms difficult to discern. Furthermore, scarcity of information about the ecology of early angiosperms makes it difficult to test hypotheses about the drivers of their diversification, including the role of fire in sha

AbstractGallium Nitride (GaN) remarkably shows high electron mobility, wide energy band gap, biocompatibility, and chemical stability. Wurtzite structure makes topmost Gallium atoms electropositive, hence high ligand binding ability especially to anions, making it usable as humidity sensor due to water self-ionization phenomenon. In this work, thin-film GaN based humidity sensor is fabricated through pulse modulated DC magnetron sputtering. Interdigitated electrodes (IDEs) with 100 μm width and spacing were inkjet printed on top of GaN sensing layer to further enhance sensor sensitivity. Imped

AbstractWe have examined the effect of growth conditions on photoluminescence (PL) characteristics of chloride VPE-grown GaN films. Undoped GaN films are grown on sapphire by a newly developed chloride VPE system which utilizes GaCl3 and NH3 as source materials.We find that the spectra depend strongly on the growth temperatures and the corresponding surface morphology. Peaks from excitons and donor-acceptor pairs (D-A pair) recombination are observed for the films with terrace-like flat surfaces grown at between 950°C and 1000°C. A peak due to exciton bound to neutral donors is observed for a

ABSTRACTThe III-V nitrides are promising materials for use in UV-blue-green optoelectronics, high-temperature electronics, and negative-electron-affinity (NEA) electron emitter applications. In order to realize this potential, it is important to develop an etching technology for device fabrication. The stability of the III-V nitrides to harsh chemical environments makes most wet etching extremely difficult, so that dry etching alternatives are desirable. Recent experiments have shown that BCI3-based chemistries are effective for reactive ion etching of GaN and that KOH-based solutions may pref

Abstract Background As the rate of crime is constantly increasing, the workload on the forensic analyst also piles up. The availability of a limited number of seized samples makes it crucial to directly analyze the sample, thereby preventing wastage in the prior steps of sample preparation. Due to such needs, the forensic community is consistently working on broadening the usage of direct analysis in real-time mass spectrometry (DART-MS). DART-MS is a relatively new technique for rapid mass spectral analysis. Its use for chemical analysis credits its ability to analyze the sample at atmospheri

Cage’s outbursts of rage and (over)acting are, according to him (Freeman), inspired by German expressionism as in films like The Cabinet of Dr. Caligari (1920).

The lines would be treated as authentic quotes as the star entered the premiere, club or ceremony (Lax 71).

The iconography deployed is clear: it is 1936, millions are unemployed, and to walk penniless into the Great Depression means destitution if not death.

Despite being conceived and produced in two very different cultural climates, these films construct the child as an embodiment of trauma in parallel ways.
