Abstract:

ABSTRACT: As a kid, my favorite superhero was Batman. For me, superheroes are all about their origin story—not necessarily how they got their superpowers (Batman, after all, doesn’t have any), but why they’re driven to super-heroism. And Batman’s origin story is great: billionaire Bruce Wayne uses the financial bequest of his murdered parents to become strong enough to save them; only he can’t do that, because they’re already dead. So he spends his time compulsively regenerating the traumatic situation of their passing, inviting villainy and menace into his life, where it endangers whomever he loves. Batman is stuck in a loop, ever recreating the conditions for his primal failure, so that he may fail again. Freudians call this a “repetition compulsion.” We might just call it misery; the only love he knows is failure.

Abstract:

Abstract We revisit the economics of “platform envelopment strategies,” whereby a dominant platform (the enveloper) operating in a multi-sided market (the origin market) enters a second multi-sided market (the target market) by leveraging the data obtained from its shared user relationships. In particular, we analyze the logic and effects of “privacy policy tying,” a strategy whereby the enveloper requests consumers to grant their consent to combining their data in both origin and target markets. This may allow the enveloper to fund the services offered to all sides of the target market by monetizing data in the origin market, monopolize the target market, and entrench its dominant position in the origin market. We conclude by considering a range of possible policy interventions that may serve to limit such potential anticompetitive effects, while preserving the efficiencies generated by conglomerate platforms.

Abstract:

How life starts from small molecules to RNAs and further to modern life is an unanswered question. Cyanosulfitic chemistry established the synthesis of building blocks, including 12 proteinogenic amino acids, 4 ribo- and deoxyribo-nucleosides, and phospholipids, from hydrogen cyanide and hydrogen sulfite under prebiotically plausible conditions. Later on, the non-enzymatic monomer extension of nucleotides provided a plausible pathway from mononucleotides to RNAs giving rise to the RNA world. RNA is one of the key components for the origin of life, firstly, the sequence information can be heritage by template copying reaction. Secondly, RNA is able to fold into a secondary structure which has the capability to catalyze chemical reactions. The RNA world scenario has perfectly overcome the chicken-egg problem, but it still cannot explain why peptides are involved in modern life. Most recently, with the establishment of the reaction between RNA and peptides, the trajectory to the RNA-peptide world theory has opened up a new era of the origin of life research. Here I will discuss the current results relevant to the RNA world to RNA-peptide world theory.

Abstract:

Contemporary protein architectures can be regarded as molecular fossils, historical imprints that mark important milestones in the history of life. Whereas sequences change at a considerable pace, higher-order structures are constrained by the energetic landscape of protein folding, the exploration of sequence and structure space, and complex interactions mediated by the proteostasis and proteolytic machineries of the cell. The survey of architectures in the living world that was fuelled by recent structural genomic initiatives has been summarized in protein classification schemes, and the overall structure of fold space explored with novel bioinformatic approaches. However, metrics of general structural comparison have not yet unified architectural complexity using the ‘shared and derived’ tenet of evolutionary analysis. In contrast, a shift of focus from molecules to proteomes and a census of protein structure in fully sequenced genomes were able to uncover global evolutionary patterns in the structure of proteins. Timelines of discovery of architectures and functions unfolded episodes of specialization, reductive evolutionary tendencies of architectural repertoires in proteomes and the rise of modularity in the protein world. They revealed a biologically complex ancestral proteome and the early origin of the archaeal lineage. Studies also identified an origin of the protein world in enzymes of nucleotide metabolism harbouring the P-loop-containing triphosphate hydrolase fold and the explosive discovery of metabolic functions that recapitulated well-defined prebiotic shells and involved the recruitment of structures and functions. These observations have important implications for origins of modern biochemistry and diversification of life.

Abstract:

On the origin of consciousness Dr Peter Verheyen from the Sola Society & Academy at Vienna University examines the origin of consciousness and various ways in which information serves as the fundamental building block of the universe. Consider the following: A scientist studying atoms is a group of atoms studying themselves. This is a strange way of looking at reality. To understand, we have to travel through the world of the infinitesimal, governed by rules and laws different from the ones we know from our classical world. We must enter the world of information.

Abstract:

Here it is shown that the gravitational anomaly is compensated by the torsion term in the Einstein–Cartan action when the geometrical and topological origin of torsion is considered in the context of quantum geometry characterizing the quantization procedure of a fermion. The relationship of this anomaly with Pontryagin index is then established. The relevance of this index in the origin of topological fixtures like wormholes in space-time has also been discussed.

In several late texts, Derrida meditated on Paul Celan's poem ‘Grosse, Glühende Wölbung’, in which the departure of the world is announced. Delving into the ‘origin’ and ‘history’ of the ‘conception’ of the world, this paper suggests that, for Derrida, the end of the world is determined by and from death—the death of the other. The death of the other marks, each and every time, the absolute end of the world.

Abstract:

The origins of the banana are as complicated and perplexing as the nature of the banana's taxonomic origin themselves.  Archaeologists believe that humans initially conquered the banana in the Kuk Valley of New Guinea in approximately 8,000 BCE (Before the Common Era).  Furthermore, while this is the first documented instance of banana domestication, other spontaneous domestication operations may have taken place throughout Southeast Asia and the South Pacific.  As a result, while Kuk is the first known instance of banana domestication, it is unlikely to be the cradle from which all other domesticated species sprang.

Abstract:

This paper reviews the increase in problems associated with the origin of goods that is due to increasing fragmentation of international trade. In particular, it examines three applications of rules of origin: rules of origin in free trade areas, preferences to developing countries, and the treatment of imports that have some domestic factor content. Traditionally each of these has used all-or-nothing rules of origin. The paper proposes a new method of dealing with all three problems. This method substitutes a valuation based on the value added in different origins for the present methods of valuing goods at the gross price and attributing origin to only one country. The value added method would improve the efficiency of world production and consumption in a number of ways.

Honey’s many bioactive compounds have been utilized historically to cure infectious diseases. Beneficial effects are its antiviral, antibacterial, anti-inflammatory, antioxidant, and immune-stimulating qualities. The bee species, geographic location, botanical origin, harvest season, processing, and storage conditions all affect honey’s potential for therapeutic use. Honey contains a number of antioxidants and active compounds, such as polyphenols, which have been shown to have disease-preventive properties. Based on their origins, categories, and functions, the main polyphenols found in various honey varieties are examined in this review.

Abstract:

Distrust of Genesis as history has been fostered by uniformitarian geoscience and Deep Time chronology. The reality or otherwise of a global flood has a crucial bearing on world history and chronology. Evidence of disparate kinds favouring such a flood from scripture, from geoscience and from anthropology is presented. Radiocarbon dating, suitably calibrated for the flood discontinuity, substantiates a Compact Time chronology of thousands of years for earth history. This is reinforced by comparison of flood model radiocarbon dates for ancient near eastern sites with those independently obtained by archaeologists. Further corroboration of the Genesis chronology comes from discoveries of preserved soft tissues, proteins and even DNA in fossil dinosaur bones and in other specimens from throughout the geologic column. Belief in a recent, rapid creation is credibly defensible by science divested of secular naturalist ideological constructs. Compact Time chronology rehabilitates belief in the historical reality of the Genesis accounts of the origin of life and the origin of death.

Full text

Abstract:

All established models in transportation engineering that estimate the numbers of trips between origins and destinations from vehicle counts use some form of a priori knowledge of the traffic. This paper, in contrast, presents a new origin–destination flow estimation model that uses only vehicle counts observed by traffic count sensors; it requires neither historical origin–destination trip data for the estimation nor any assumed distribution of flow. This approach utilises a method of statistical origin–destination flow estimation in computer networks, and transfers the principles to the domain of road traffic by applying transport-geographic constraints in order to keep traffic embedded in physical space. Being purely stochastic, our model overcomes the conceptual weaknesses of the existing models, and additionally estimates travel times of individual vehicles. The model has been implemented in a real-world road network in the city of Melbourne, Australia. The model was validated with simulated data and real-world observations from two different data sources. The validation results show that all the origin–destination flows were estimated with a good accuracy score using link count data only. Additionally, the estimated travel times by the model were close approximations to the observed travel times in the real world.

Abstract:

With increasing numbers of international flights and air travelers arriving in the US annually, the rapid spread of communicable diseases has grown. Epidemics of novel infectious diseases have emerged and rapidly spread globally in association with air travel, including the severe acute respiratory syndrome (SARS) outbreak in 2003 and H1N1 in 2009. In order to anticipate and mitigate the consequences of future rapid disease spread, the MITRE Corporation, in collaboration with the (US) Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, developed a risk assessment tool using a Susceptible-Exposed-Infectious-Recovered model and detailed flight and population data. The emergence and spread of prototypic pandemic influenza was simulated based on a theoretical geographical point of origin and its communicability. More than 50 international metropolitan areas were analyzed as potential points of origin to simulate the rapidity of spread to the US. The basic reproduction number (Ro), defined as the average number of persons to whom one infected individual transmits disease in an immune naive population, was varied from 1.4 to 1.9. The starting numbers of infectious persons at each origin also were varied (100 or 500 persons, 5% infectious may travel). Waves were computed as aggregate across metropolitan areas modeled in the US. The visualization of the first pandemic wave was most apparent in simulations of Ro = 1.9, resulting from 500 infectious persons at each origin. More than 50% of origins indicated that aggregate waves peaked around Day 125, while 30% of origins peaked around Day 90. Additionally, the time, in days, from its origin in six continents into the US was compared, and a two-week delay was found from South America compared with other continents. This simulation tool better equips policy makers and public health officials to quickly assess risk and leverage resources efficiently via targeted and scalable border mitigation measures during a rapid global outbreak.

Abstract:

An RNA world has been placed centre stage for explaining the origin of life. Indeed, RNA is the most plausible molecule able to form both a (self)-replicator and to inherit information, necessities for initiating genetics. However, in parallel with self-replication, the proto-organism had to obtain the ability to catalyse supply of its chemical constituents, including the ribonucleotide metabolites required to replicate RNA. Although the possibility of an RNA-catalysed metabolic network has been considered, it is to be questioned whether RNA molecules, at least on their own, possess the required catalytic capacities. An alternative scenario for the origin of metabolism involves chemical reactions that are based on environmental catalysts. Recently, we described a non-enzymatic glycolysis and pentose phosphate pathway-like reactions catalysed by metal ions [mainly Fe(II)] and phosphate, simple inorganic molecules abundantly found in Archaean sediments. While the RNA world can serve to explain the origin of genetics, the origin of the metabolic network might thus date back to constraints of environmental chemistry. Interestingly, considering a metal-catalysed origin of metabolism gives rise to an attractive hypothesis about how the first enzymes could have formed: simple RNA or (poly)peptide molecules could have bound the metal ions, and thus increased their solubility, concentration and accessibility. In a second step, this would have allowed substrate specificity to evolve.

Abstract:

We examine the Randall-Sundrum brane-world and demonstrate how it may be realized in terms of a doubled D3-brane configuration of type IIB theory. We further investigate the supersymmetry of the brane-world and show that, despite claims to the contrary, it is indeed compatible with supersymmetry. This result depends on having a higher dimensional origin for the model, which the type IIB realization provides.
