Abstract:
The 16th International Symposium on Organometallic Chemistry Directed Towards Organic Synthesis (OMCOS 16) was held in Shanghai, China during the period of 24-28 July 2011. It was jointly organized by the Shanghai Institute of Organic Chemistry (SIOC), the Chinese Academy of Sciences (CAS), and East China Normal University under the auspices of the International Union of Pure and Applied Chemistry. It was held at the Shanghai International Convention Center, located in the heart of the Lujiazui-Shanghai Financial and Trade zone, adjacent to the Oriental Pearl TV Tower and facing the multinational styles of architecture along the Bund across the Huangpu River, nicely showing part of the history and the dynamic nature of China at this moment.It was the first time for mainland China to host the OMCOS meeting following the successful series of symposia held at Fort Collins (1981), Dijon (1983), Kyoto (1985), Vancouver (1987), Florence (1989), Utrecht (1991), Kobe (1993), Santa Barbara (1995), Gottingen (1997), Versailles (1999), Taipei (2001), Toronto (2003), Geneva (2005), Nara (2007), and Glasgow (2009).The symposium program featured 11 plenary lectures, 13 invited lectures, 12 oral presentations, one OMCOS Award Lecture (sponsored by Springer Verlag and the Yen-Chuang Foundation), and one OBC Award Lecture (sponsored by the Royal Society of Chemistry). Notably, the plenary lecture given by the Nobel laureate, Prof. Ei-ichi Negishi, was delivered right after the reception dinner on 24 July. Prof. Frank Glorius from Universität Münster received the OMCOS Award, and Prof. Michael C. Willis from the University of Oxford received the OBC Award.The symposium was attended by 993 participants from 21 countries and areas. The scientific program also presented well-supported poster sessions comprising 507 posters of remarkably high quality. On the basis of assessment by the distinguished international committee, 20 posters were awarded with the OMCOS-16 Poster Prizes, sponsored by Henkel, John Wiley, IUPAC, Thieme, the Royal Society of Chemistry, and Elsevier.This issue of Pure and Applied Chemistry comprises a collection of 9 papers based upon lectures delivered at OMCOS-16 (Conference Editor, Shuli You), offering the readers a glimpse of the fascinating achievements in this area communicated at the symposium.The series will continue with OMCOS-17, which will be held in Fort Collins, Colorado, USA (www.omcos17.com), 28 July-1 August 2013, under the chairmanship of Prof. Tomislav Rovis.Shengming Ma and Kuiling DingConference Chairs

Abstract:
Purpose The purpose of this paper is to examine the potential of Penang in being a dark tourism destination in Malaysia with the influence of urban tourism development. Design/methodology/approach A systematic review was conducted to serve as a foundation by highlighting the number of dark tourism studies conducted in Southeast Asia (SEA). Findings The results projected a total of 23 dark tourism studies conducted within the SEA region. These papers revolve around the following key themes that were conducted in these countries: tourists’ behaviour (motivation, satisfaction and experience), nation building and narratives, dark tourism development (management, marketing and implications), theoretical underpinnings and the role of dark tourism. Amongst these, it was found that tourists’ behaviour is the most studied with eight papers while the least is on nation building and theoretical underpinnings of dark tourism with three papers each. Research limitations/implications The lack of dark tourism studies in SEA results in insufficient existing literature which justifies the need of exploring Penang as a potential dark tourism destination. Originality/value This paper builds on prior dark tourism studies that are significantly related to urban tourism but takes a step further by exploring the Asian settings. Specifically, into Malaysia which is more than just an SEA country, but a multicultural one which is rich and diverse with its culture and heritage that leads to many unique tourists’ destinations. This paper extends the geographical scope of the dark tourism literature as it focuses on Penang in Malaysia.

Abstract:
The death of Hirohito on 7 January 1989 provided the Japanese with an opportunity of reappraising the Showa era, as Hirohito's reign is called in the Japanese calendar. This lasted for sixty-two years, which the press described as years of ‘turmoil and drastic changes.’ While the role of the Emperor and, to a greater degree, the role of the military in imperial Japan have been long-running themes for historians, intellectuals, and journalists, Hirohito's death certainly encouraged the publication of a large number of books, including reprints of works about the Pacific War, from semi-official histories, the memoirs of some of the leading decision makers and a series of histories of Japan from 1868 to 1945. Television programmes showed for two full days panel discussions by historians and documentary films of the Showa era—a series of bloody wars in China and eventually with the Americans, the British and the other Allied powers, leading to unconditional surrender and occupation.

AbstractA series of Polynesian pearls has been investigated with particular attention to the structural and compositional patterns of the early developmental stages of the pearl layer. These initial steps in pearl formation bear witness of the metabolic changes that have occurred during the pearl-sac formation. The resulting structurally and biochemically complex structures have been investigated using a variety of techniques that provide us with information concerning both mineral phases and the organic components. Results are discussed with respect to our understanding of the biomineralization mechanisms, as well as for the grafting process.

Abstract:
The article introduces the results of a study dedicated to the most spectacular textile in the royal household in the XVII century Russia – the heyday of Russian pearl works. This is the context for the study of the Moscow Kremlin pearl works kept in those days in the Royal Treasury and the Sacristy. Today these masterpieces are in the collection of the Armory Chamber. The analysis involves ceremonial wraps and various pearl covers. The research refines the series of secular and cult-ritual ceremonial textile of the XVII century, which was adorned with the pearl threading technique. The author identifies a range of such items located in the national museum collections. Much attention is paid to the specifics of ancient Russian pearl work. The emphasis is on one of the most valuable items made in this technique. It is the so-called «Blanket with Kingdoms» from the Royal Stables Treasury; the item was made at the beginning of the second quarter of the XVII century. According to the results of the analysis, the textiles with pearl works can be regarded as a significant material source on the history of the ceremonial culture of the late Russian Middle Ages.

Abstract:

Hong Kong is an Asian metropolis with a population of approximately seven million. Previous studies on the region concentrate on its history that is marked by radical changes to conclude that the on-going makeovers in the physical environment leave people without a permanence of place. Researchers also say that this fluid history eradicates temporal identity because pre-modernism and post-modernism exist at the same time. This study investigates how to describe and explain the relationship between people and environment in Hong Kong. Six informants who are from Hong Kong and who live in Hong Kong help to portray an image of home that does not agree with earlier studies. By looking at physical and emotional boundaries, expressions, and temporal dimensions, this study shows that people cannot be separated from their environment as both parts constitute the unity of being home. This study therefore concludes that neither the sense of place nor the temporal identity is threatened by the region's history of instability. Rather, the informants express a strong sense of home because of the fast pace of life in Hong Kong.

Abstract:
Informed by social reconstruction, critical pedagogy, and critical multiculturalism, this thesis examines the ways in which collaborative art production can assist a youth activist organization in furthering its goals for individual and collective empowerment. Enacting the roles of the community artist/educator as facilitator and gatherer, two arts-based projects were developed for and with Filipino youth activists in Montreal as a way to extend their community work into art activism. Embracing participatory action research as the primary methodology, this research demonstrates that collaborative art production, tied to the concerns and values of an organization, allows its members to identify and visually represent community problems, connect personal experiences to larger group reality, and envision alternatives for their community. I reflect on my role as a cultural worker in this process and finally, I discuss implications of this research for community art education and community organizing.* *This dissertation is a compound document (contains both a paper copy and a DVD as part of the dissertation).

Dissertação de Mestrado em Estudos Americanos apresentada à Universidade Aberta
A vida de PSB foi influenciada desde cedo pela cultura e tradição chinesas por ter crescido na China imperial e aí vivido metade da sua vida. Conheceu e presenciou revoluções que marcaram a história da China, e a levaram a temer pela própria vida e dos seus. Essas experiências moldaram o seu carácter, no contacto próximo com o sofrimento, a miséria, discriminação e a exploração dos mais fracos. Desde a juventude revelou a sua tendência para a produção literária, escrevendo sobretudo acerca do povo chinês que amava e conhecia de forma tão profunda. Em 1930 escreveu o seu primeiro romance, East Wind, West Wind e, em 1931 a sua obra emblemática. The Good Earth, com o qual ganhou o prémio Pulitzer, que se revelou de enorme importância para a atribuição do Prémio Nobel da Literatura em 1938. Nos seus romances abordou diversos temas: a vida dos camponeses e d a sociedade chinesa em geral, na transição do período imperial para a república, o amor inter-racial e o racismo e a discriminação das mulheres e das minorias étnicas, entre outros. Foi com a obra sobre a China e o Oriente que PSB ajudou os Estados Unidos a mudar a concepção sobre os povos orientais, contribuindo de forma significativa para a aproximação entre os povos. Em 1970 a UNESCO fez um estudo que mostrou que as obras de PSB foram traduzidas para 145 línguas e dialectos, sendo PSB o autor americano mais traduzido. A partir de 1934 regressou definitivamente aos Estados Unidos e tornou-se uma defensora da vida e dos direitos dos desamparados da sociedade – as crianças órfãs mestiças, as minorias étnicas e os povos sob o jugo imperialista. Lutou contra a lei que impedia a imigração de chineses nos Estados Unidos, insurgiu-se contra a detenção dos niponico-americanos durante a Segunda Guerra Mundial e foi uma das únicas figuras públicas de raça branca que lutaram contra a discriminação dos negros a partir da década de 1940. Fundou a “Welcome House", uma agência de adopção para crianças Amerasian e a “East West Association", uma organização com o intuito de promover as relações culturais entre os Estados Unidos e o Oriente. Dando o exemplo, adoptou sete crianças multiraciais e em 1964 fundou a “Pearl S. Buck Foundation", uma organização não governamental que tem vindo a fornecer assistência médica e educação a mais de 25.000 crianças Amerasian em mais de uma dezena de países orientais
La vie de PSB a été influencée très tôt par la culture et la tradition chinoises en raison d’avoir été élevée au sein de la China impériale et d’y avoir vécue la moitié de sa vie. Elle a connu et vécu des révolutions qui ont marqué l’histoire de la Chine et qui l’ont fait craindre sa vie et sa famille. Ces expériences ont moulé son caractère, vu qu’elle a contacté de près avec la souffrance, la misère, la discrimination et l’exploitation des plus faibles. Depuis sa jeunesse, sa tendance pour la production littéraire s’est révélée, en écrivant surtout sur le peuple chinois qu’elle aimait et connaissait d’une façon si profonde. En 1930, elle a écrit son premier roman East Wind, West Wind et, en 1931, son oeuvre emblématique, The Good Earth, avec laquelle elle a reçu le prix Pulitzer et qui s’est révélée d’une extrême importance pour l’attribution du Prix Nobel de la Littérature en 1938. Dans ses romans, elle a abordé plusieurs sujets : la vie des paysans et de la société chinoise en générale, dans la transition de la période impériale pour la république , l’amour interraciale et le racisme, et la discrimination des femmes et des minorités ethniques, parmi d’autres. Grâce à son oeuvre sur la Chine et sur l’Orient, PSB a aidé les Etats-Unis à changer leur conception envers les peuples orientaux, en contribuant d’une façon signifiante pour le rapprochement entre les peuples. En 1970, l’UNESCO a fait une étude qui montre que les oeuvres de PSB ont été traduites en 145 langues et dialectes. Elle a été l’écrivain américain le plus traduit. A partir de 1934, elle a fait son retour définitif aux Etats-Unis et elle est devenue une défenseuse tenace de la vie et des droits des plus défavorisés de la société – les enfants orphelins métis, les minorités ethniques et les peuples sous le joug impérialiste. Elle a lutté contre la loi qui empêchait l’immigration des chinois aux Etats-Unis. Elle s’est insurgée contre la détention des nippon-américains pendant la Seconde Guerre Mondiale et elle a été une des seules figures publiques de race blanche qui ont lutté contre la discrimination des noirs à partir de 1940. PSB a fondé « Welcome House », une agence d’adoption pour enfants Amerasian et « East West Association », une organisation pour promouvoir les relations culturelles entre les Etats-Unis et l’Orient. En donnant son exemple, elle a adopté sept enfants multiraciales et en 1964 elle a fondé « Pearl S. Buck Foundation », une organisation non gouvernementale qui a déjà donné de l’assistance médicale et de l’éducation à plus de 25.000 enfants Amerasian dans plus d’une dizaine de pays orientaux
PSB’s life was influenced by Chinese culture and tradition from an early age for having been raised in imperial China and having lived there half of her life. She witnessed revolutions that shaped China’s history and which made her fear for her own life and for her family’s. Those experiences formed her character by directly contacting suffering, misery, discrimination and the exploitation of the weakest. She revealed her literary skill since her youth, writing mainly about the Chinese people whom she loved and knew in such a profound way. In 1930 she wrote her first novel, East Wind, West Wind and in 1931 she wrote her most famous novel, The Good Earth, for which she received the Pulitzer Prize, and in 1938 she received the Nobel Literature Prize. In her novels she covered several themes: the Chinese peasants’ life and the overall Chinese society in the transition from the imperial to the republic periods, inter-racial love, racism, women’s and ethnic minorities’ discrimination, among other. PSB’s work about China and the East helped the United States to change its conception about the oriental peoples, and she helped approaching the peoples. In 1970 a UNESCO survey reported that PSB’s work had been translated into 145 different languages and dialects, making her more frequently translated than any other American writer. She returned to the United States definitely in 1934 and she became a daring defender of life and of the rights of society’s outcasts – Amerasian orphans, ethnic minorities and peoples under the oppression of imperialism. She fought against the “Chinese Exclusion Laws" and the internment of Japanese-Americans during World War II she was one of the few white intellectuals who struggled against the discrimination of African Americans in the forties. She founded “Welcome House", an adoption agency for Amerasian children and “East West Association", an organization for the promotion of cultural exchanges between the United States and the East. She adopted seven multiracial children and in 1964 she founded “Pearl S. Buck Foundation" a new non-governmental agency which has already supplied medical assistance and education to more than 25,000 Amerasian children in a dozen eastern countries

Estuary is an important land-sea interface where active biogeochemical processes occur as a result of river in-fluxes of dissolved and particulate weathering materials from the continent to the ocean. To assess these in-fluxes and the associated biogeochemical processes, a core was collected from the estuary of Pearl River in south China and was measured for the distributions of the decay-series radioisotopes with depth. The sedimentation rate was dated by using excess Pb-210 to be 4.4±1.2 cm/yr (α-spectrometer) and 3.8±1.2 cm/yr (γ-spectrometer), respectively. The thorium isotope measurements exhibit significant deficiency of Th-228 relative to Th-232, implying a significant out-flux of Ra-228 out of sediments by subterranean groundwater discharge. The Th-230/U-234 activity ratios are mostly greater than one, resulting from preferential loss of uranium relative to thorium during the weathering of source rock in the drainage region. Excess U-234 relative to Th-230 as found at some depths indicates an enrichment of authigenic uranium in sediments under reducing conditions. These results, together with the measurements of U-238/Th-232 and U-234/U-238 in the same core, clearly recorded a concordant change in the continental weathering flux, the POC flux, and the redox conditions in Pear-River sediments during the past decades, a change which may attributed to the dual causes of the decadal wet/dry climate changes in the region as well as the anthropogenic contaminations of the Pearl River associated with the rapid regional industrial/economic development. Our study shows that the decay series radioisotopes in estuarine sediments provide a useful tool for understanding the physical, chemical, and biological processes occurred in the continents and/or at the land-sea boundary.

Abstract:
A new hybrid parallel platform device that is based on tensegrity is introduced in this paper. A tensegrity structure is one that is comprised of members that are either in tension (ties) or compression (struts). The device studied in this paper replaces the ‘upper’ and ‘lower’ set of ties of a 3-strut tensesgrity system with rigid bodies. Further, the three struts are replaced by three leg connectors whose lengths can be changed via prismatic actuators. The three remaining ties are replaced by the series combination of a spring and a non-compliant tie where the length of the non-compliant tie can be controlled. An analysis is presented that shows how the connector leg lengths and non-compliant tie lengths can be determined so as to position and orient the upper platform at a desired pose and at a desired total potential energy level. It is the control of the potential energy in the system that makes this new hybrid parallel-platform unique.

Abstract:
Abstract In support of the effort to bring downstream issues to the attention of the designer as parts take shape, an analysis system is being built to extract certain features relevant to the assembly process, such as the dimension, shape, and symmetry of an object. These features can be applied to a model during the downstream process to evaluate handling and assemblability. In this paper, we will focus on the acquisition phase of the assembly process and employ a Design for Assembly (DFA) evaluation to quantify factors in this process. The capabilities of a non-homogeneous, non-manifold boundary representation geometric modeling system are used with an Index of Difficulty (ID) that represents the dexterity and time required to assemble a product. A series of algorithms based on the high-level abstractions of loop and link are developed to extract features that are difficult to orient, which is one of the DFA criteria. Examples for testing the robustness of the algorithms are given. Problems related to nearly symmetric outlines are also discussed.
