Abstract Three structureless row covers (white, spunbonded polyester and two weights of white, spunbonded polypropylene) were evaluated for winter protection of container grown ‘Helleri’ holly (Ilex crenata ‘Helleri’), ‘Atropurpurea Nana’ nandina (Nandina domestica ‘Atropurpurea Nana’), Fraser photinia (Photinia × fraseri), and ‘Mohave’ pyracantha (Pyracantha Koidzumii × coccinea ‘Mohave’) relative to white copolymer film and white copolymer backed thermoblanket over quonset-shaped structures and an unprotected control. Air and rooting medium temperatures were monitored during the deployment period. Visual foliar injury ratings were taken immediately after treatments were removed and again four months later. Visual shoot injury ratings were correlated with the mean daily average and the mean daily minimum temperature of air and rooting medium within each treatment. Both polypropylene covers provided protection for plants in the interior of a consolidated group equivalent to white poly and the thermoblanket for all species except Pyracantha. Porous row covers are a feasible alternative to standard protection systems.

Full textAbstract:
A large amount of pteriomorphs of bivalve have been found in the Zlichovian–Givetian black mudstone-siltpelite in the trough in basin facies-zone of Luofu, Nandan, northwest Guangxi, South China. This fauna consists of 20 species, placed in 11 genera and 6 families, of which 1 family, 2 genera and 8 species are new. It has a very low diversity while compared with the contemperaneous fauna of Xiangzhou facies. This fauna is characterized by: a. Only 2 subclasses, the Pteriomorphia and Cryptodonta of 6 subclasses of Bivalvia were presented in the Nandan facies fauna; b. Among the occurred 6 families: Praecardiidae, Antipleuridae, Lunulacardiidae, Pterineidae, Posidoniidae, and Guangxiconchiidae, the Guangxiconchiidae (fam. nov.) is the most falourishing one. About 80% of individuals of bivalves belong to it. In contrast, the Pterineidae which was very flourish in the Xiangzhou facies, is represented by a small amount of specimens. In the generic level, the Guangxiconcha is mostly developed and distributed from Zlichovian to Givetian; c. This is a basically cosmopolitan fauna, and may compare with the contemperaneous bivalve fauna of the same facies of western Europe and North America. Among 11 genera of this fauna, 7 genera: Ptychopteria(Actinopteria), Cheiopteria, Pterochaenia, Posidonia, Lunulacardium and Buchiola are the cosmopolitan or basically cosmopolitan taxa, while Guangxiconcha, Nandannia and Opisthonia are the endemics to South China. 62% of the species are the endemics; d. This fauna is dominated by the small-sized, thin-shalled and fragile taxa. Except for Buchiola and Ptychopteria, most taxa are ornamented by fine concentrical line, or acrossed by very weakly radial line; e. About 54% of taxa and 90% of total individuals of this fauna may be the byssal attached epifauna, most of them may be the pseudoplanktonic bivalves.Seven bivalve zones of Zlichovian–Givetian of Nandan, Guangxi have been recognized, and compared with the associated tentaculitid zones.

Full textAbstract:
French philosopher Jean-Luc Nancy is acting uneasily when it comes to contemporary politics. There is a sort of agitation in his work in relation to this question. At several places we read an appeal to deal thoroughly with this question and ‘ qu’il y a un travail à faire’, that there is still work to do. From the beginning of the 1980s with the ‘Centre de Recherches Philosophiques sur le Politique’ and the two books resulting out of that, until the many, rather short texts he published on this topic during the last years of the century, the question of politics crosses very clearly Nancy’s work. He not only fulminates against the contemporary philosophical ‘content’ with democracy. Instead of defending a political regime, he wants to think the form of politics in the most critical and sceptical way. To Nancy, the worst thing we can do in thinking contemporary politics, is taking it for granted that we know what politics is about today, given the evidence of the global democracy. So to him, we almost have to be at unease when it comes to politics. On the other hand, in thinking contemporary democracy, the work of Claude Lefort is undeniably the main reference. Long before the collapse of the Berlin Wall and the upsurge of an all-too-easy anti-Marxism, Lefort articulated in a nuanced way the formal differences between totalitarianism and democracy. According to Lefort, the specific ‘form’ of democracy is that it never becomes an accomplished and fulfilled form as such. In a certain sense, the only ‘form’ of democracy is formlessness, a form without form. In a democracy, the place of power becomes literally ‘ infigurable’ as Lefort says. Democracy stands for formlessness or the relation to a void. Nancy objects so to say against a ‘Leformal’ conception of democracy – the empty place, the formless, the ‘ infigurable’ or ‘ sans figure’, the ever yet to come. … This conception of democracy would still be caught in the infinite metaphysical, dialectical horizon of immanentism, while it pretends to have already left that horizon behind it, presenting itself as the finite alternative to the infinite totalitarian politics. Democracy as formlessness is indeed no longer based on a metaphysical Idea, Figure, or Truth. We want to clear up the philosophical sky of Nancy’s remarks by confronting them with some thoughts of Lefort.

Full textAbstract:
This qualitative-phenomenological study was initiated to explore and understand the lived experiences and different perceptions of parents on no-homework policy in Nangan Elementary School, Nangan, Governor Generoso, Davao Oriental. Subsequently, this qualitative exploration hoped to draw out conclusions on the perceptions of the parents. The data source in this study derived from seven (7) research participants for the in-depth interview and another seven (7) parents for the focus group discussion. The research participants of this study were the selected Grade Five to Grade Six parents in Nangan Elementary School who were usually having many assignments compared to lower grade levels. The following themes emerged from analysis based in the perspectives of participant interviews: no-homework policy can be optional; no-homework policy is unfavorable and unhelpful to students; no-homework policy causes students to become irresponsible; and no-homework policy causes less learning among students. Concerning the experiences of parents in dealing with the assignments of their children, five major themes were manifested such as: having difficulties in answering homework; being able to help children; having fun while doing the assignment; being unable to finish work or chores; and bonding opportunity. Moreover, the participants about their challenges in dealing with the assignments of their children, four major themes emerged: understanding how to answer the lesson; having balance and time management; giving encouragement; and having follow-ups and rules. Lastly, their suggestions as regards the no-homework policy revealed four emergent themes: parents should always be responsible and helpful to their children; parents should have time management and balance; teachers should give appropriate, simple and uncostly homework; and teachers should give homework to students for continued learning.

Validation of molecular markers for marker-assisted pyramiding of white rust resistance loci in Indian Mustard (Brassica juncea L.). Can. J. Plant Sci. 95: 939–945. Successful application of molecular markers in marker-assisted pyramiding relies on effective determination of the target phenotype. In this respect, evaluation of the efficiency of markers for marker-assisted selection through cross-validation in different genetic backgrounds and in different populations is a crucial step. In the present study, the previously identified Arabidopsis-derived intron polymorphic (IP) markers At5g41560 and At2g36360, which were highly linked with AcB1-A4.1 and AcB1-A5.1, respectively, were validated in a set of 25 genotypes of Indian Mustard and in three different F2 populations. The relationships between the variation of PCR products of the two markers with the percent disease index (PDI) of the tested genotypes, and the co-segregation analysis of the markers with disease phenotype in F2 populations clearly indicated that At5g41560 and At2g36360 are genotype-nonspecific markers and are closely linked to white rust resistance loci AcB1-A4.1 and AcB1-A5.1, respectively. It also became evident from the present study that AcB1-A4.1 and an another white rust resistance locus Ac(2)t are likely the same gene locus.

Full textAbstract:
The undertaken research replenishes the pool of knowledge about folklore texts and the functions of spellonyms as signs saturated with national and cultural meanings. The study establishes and compares linguistic and cultural characteristics of spellonyms in the onomasticon of Australian and Nanaian aetiological tales. The authors proposed a typology of spellonyms which includes 5 thematic groups: nominations of deities of different nature; nominations of celestial bodies transformed from representatives of the tribe; nominations of objects of worship and magical rituals; nominations of magical natural phenomena; nominations of magical creatures. The results of the research demonstrate a significant prevalence in the number of deity nominations among Australian spellonyms, while the majority of Nanaian spellonyms refer to magical artefacts. The research has also proved the utmost significance of the water element in the folk worldview of Australian Aborigines and the equivalent importance of the water, land and air elements in the Nanai folk worldview. The obvious preference in both folklore traditions is given to nominations of native origin transcribed into the language of translation. The structural types of spellonyms vary from group to group, with the majority of monolexemic nominations.

Chapter 6 examines the East China Sea dispute on China’s web. This includes an analysis of the official Chinese Diaoyu Islands website, but also of various military news portals and the web presence of non-governmental advocacy groups. While the issue is more dynamic, and notably involves more commercial actors, than the Nanjing Massacre case of the previous chapter, Chinese sites nevertheless fall back on traditional mass-media scripts. The analysis also reveals how this nationalist topic ‘sells’ in digital China: the prominent web resources make heavy use of advertising pop-ups and click-bait, and they juxtapose nationalist imagery with violence, pornography, and gambling offers. The chapter argues that, on China’s web, the issue of the East China Sea dispute is governed by a tacit consensus between political and commercial actors to commodify nationalist symbols for consumption by a specific target demographic, and that this practice shifts Sino–Japan discourses into chauvinistic directions.

Over the past two decades, many states have been called on to recognize and apologize for historic wrongs. In response, some states have apologized for past crimes, while others continue to silence, deny, and relativize dark pasts. What explains this tremendous variation? When and why do states change the stories they tell about dark pasts? Based on a comparative analysis of the trajectories of Turkey’s narrative of the 1915-17 Armenian Genocide and Japan’s narrative of the 1937-8 Nanjing Massacre, Dark Pasts argues that international pressures increase the likelihood of change in official narratives of dark pasts, but domestic considerations determine the content of such change. Rather than simply changing with the passage of time, persistence, or rightness, official narratives of dark pasts are shaped by interactions between domestic and international politics. Combining historical richness and analytical rigor, Dark Pasts unravels the complex processes through which such narratives are constructed and contested, and offers an innovative way to analyze the content of and changes in historical memories. The book sheds light on the persistent presence of the past and reveals how domestic politics functions as a filter that shapes the ways in which states’ narratives change – or don’t – over time.

Identifying how the appropriation of Hollywood horror films engage with the notion of an Arctic sublime, this chapter examines how contemporary Norwegian horror films are mobilised partly to subvert the gender and ethnicity hierarchies predominant in the Heroic Polar Exploration narratives of Norway, established by Nansen, Amundsen, and others. Foregrounding feminist critiques of the horror genre by Carol J. Clover and Barbara Creed and identifying the rise in Norwegian popular genre films such as ‘skrekkfilm’ (horror and gore), Henlin-Strømme focuses the discussion on films such as Roar Uthaug Cold Prey (2006) and Tommy Wirkola Dead Snow (2009). The chapter addresses how dominant historical narratives of the Arctic can begin to be renegotiated through forms of popular global culture.

This chapter analyzes Japan’s narrative of the Nanjing Massacre between 1990 and 2008. Over this period, the official narrative came to include admissions of responsibility and apologies, and then backtracked to resume mythmaking and relativizing (while continuing to apologize.) Pressures from China and Korea, along with transnational activism, contributed to the shift to apologizing and deepening acknowledgment. At the same time, domestic political considerations in Japan – most notably, domestic contestation, party politics and electoral concerns, and concerns about compensation claims – frequently shaped the content and extent of changes in the state’s narrative. In particular, deepening revisionism in Japan, including high-profile “gaffes” related to “history issues” and official visits to the controversial Yasukuni Shrine, both fed and served as markers of the backtracking.

This chapter introduces the book’s core questions, summarizes the stakes of inquiry, introduces the two narratives analyzed in the book, outlines the central argument, and situates this study in relation to existing scholarship on memory, transitional justice, and international norms. Given the challenges of reckoning with the past, what are the sources of continuity in states’ narratives of dark pasts, and when and why do states choose to change such narratives? To answer these questions, this book analyzes the trajectories over the past sixty years of Turkey’s narrative of the Armenian Genocide and Japan’s narrative of the Nanjing Massacre and the Second Sino-Japanese War. Extrapolating from this analysis, the book argues that international pressures increase the likelihood of change in official narratives of dark pasts, while domestic considerations determine the content of such change.

This chapter looks at museum representations of the historic city of Nanjing, and explores how the narratives of a relic museum function as a ‘memory machine’ to reconstruct cultural belonging and identity, generating a bond between people and place that takes on the affective power of ‘topophilia’. While such local bonding is crucial for developing an understanding of, and commitment to, heritage preservation, modern museology operates on national and global, as well as local, stages, greatly complicating museum presentations of history and cultural heritage. This chapter argues that the relic museum – as a surviving memorial of the past by saving and displaying its historical objects and artefacts – thus becomes an arena of contestation between top-down state recognition for national and global audiences and bottom-up locally embedded cultural revival.

Through the Second Sino-Japanese War (1937–45) and the Nationalist–Communist War (1946–9), several Chinese Islamic pilgrimage delegations set out on their journeys across the Indian Ocean. Mecca was more than a simple endpoint destination. These travels encompassed transits and sojourns in cities in between Nanjing/Shanghai and Mecca, offering the pilgrim-cum-delegates venues of encounters with foreign dignitaries and diaspora populations. This chapter examines the published records and private diaries of members of the Chinese Islamic Goodwill Mission to the Near East (1937–9) who had been aligned with the Republican Nationalist Party, with a focus on their actions and rhetoric in Calcutta, Bombay, Karachi, and Lahore. Claims to anti-imperial Islamic solidarity and routes of the pilgrimage provided accessible channels for the Chinese Muslim delegates to conduct meetings with leaders of both the Muslim League and the Indian National Congress Party, while simultaneously attempting to garner support from Cantonese/Shandong diaspora populations and Turki refugees from the war-stricken Xinjiang Province. The practices and networks of informal diplomacy that consolidated in wartime would outlast the Second Sino-Japanese War itself.

The Prins cyclization is a powerful approach for the construction of oxygen-containing heterocycles. B.V. Subba Reddy at the Indian Institute of Technology has reported (Tetrahedron Lett. 2012, 53, 3100) an approach to 2,6-dioxabicyclo[3.2.1]octanes 2 by way of a tandem Prins reaction/intramolecular acetalization of the diol 1 and a variety of aldehydes. Christine L. Willis of the University of Bristol utilized (Angew. Chem. Int. Ed. 2012, 51, 3901) nontraditional γ, δ-unsaturated alcohols 3 for a Prins-type strategy to access bicyclic heterocycles 5, while Zhenlei Song of Sichuan University employed (Angew. Chem. Int. Ed. 2012, 51, 5367) a bis(silyl) homoallylic alcohol 7 in the synthesis of structures such as 8, corresponding to the B ring of the bryostatins. In a mechanistically related process, the conversion of unsaturated ketones 9 to tetrahydropyranyl products 11 by treatment with a boronic acid 10 and triflic anhydride was described (Org. Lett. 2012, 14, 1187) by Aurelio G. Csáky at the Universidad Complutense in Spain. A powerful approach to heterocycles is via the ring expansion of smaller, and especially strained, ring systems. Jon T. Njardarson of the University of Arizona has been exploring such strategies and has reported (Angew. Chem. Int. Ed. 2012, 51, 5675) the conversion of vinyl oxetanes to dihydropyrans via catalysis by transition metals or Brønsted acids. The use of a chiral catalyst such as 13 allowed for the enantioselective conversion of divinyl oxetane 12 to enantioenriched dihydropyran 14. Meanwhile, Amir H. Hoveyda at Boston College and Richard R. Schrock at MIT have developed (J. Am. Chem. Soc. 2012, 134, 2788) a highly reactive and stereoselective catalyst for the ring-opening/cross-metathesis of several ring systems such as 15 with enol ethers. Notably, reactions occur rapidly (e.g., 10 min) using as little as 0.15 mol% catalyst. An alkynyl cyclopropyl ketone such as 17 can be converted (Angew. Chem. Int. Ed. 2012, 51, 4112) to products 18 by treatment with a gold/silver catalyst mixture, as shown by Zhongwen Wang at Nankai University. Notably, the oxabicyclic ring structure contained within 18 is present in a diversity of natural product structures.

Shou-Fei Zhu of Nankai University developed (Angew. Chem. Int. Ed. 2014, 53, 13188) an iron catalyst that effected the enantioselective cyclization of 1 to 2. Bypassing diazo precursors, Junliang Zhang of East China Normal University used (Angew. Chem. Int. Ed. 2014, 53, 13751) a gold catalyst to cyclize 3 to 4. Taking advantage of energy transfer from a catalytic Ir complex, Chuo Chen of University of Texas Southwestern carried out (Science 2014, 346, 219) intramolecular 2+2 cycloaddition of 5, leading, after dithiane formation, to the cyclobutane 6. Intramolecular ketene cycloaddition has been limited in scope. Liming Zhang of the University of California Santa Barbara found (Angew. Chem. Int. Ed. 2014, 53, 9572) that intramolecular oxidation of an intermediate Ru vinylidene led to a species that cyclized to the cyclobutanone 8. James D. White of Oregon State University devised (J. Am.

Ed. 2014, 53, 11579) that the Ni-catalyzed Claisen rearrangement of 11 proceeded with high diastereo- and enantiocontrol. The relative configuration of the product 12 was not reported. Robert H. Grubbs of Caltech showed (J. Am. Chem. Soc. 2014, 136, 13029) that ring opening cross metathesis of 13 with 14 delivered the Z product 15. Mn(III) cyclization has in the past required a stoichiometric amount of inorganic oxidant. Sangho Koo of Myong Ji University found (Adv. Synth. Catal. 2014, 356, 3059) that by adding a Co co- catalyst, air could serve as the stoichiometric oxidant. Indeed, 16 could be cyclized to 17 using inexpensive Mn(II). Matthias Beller of the Leibniz-Institüt für Katalyse prepared (Angew. Chem. Int. Ed. 2014, 53, 13049) the cyclohexene 20 by coupling the racemic alcohol 18 with the amine 19. Paultheo von Zezschwitz of Philipps-Universität Marburg added (Chem. Commun. 2014, 50, 15897) diethyl zinc in a conjugate sense to 21, then reduced the product to give 22. Depending on the reduction method, either diastereomer of the product could be made dominant. Nuno Maulide of the University of Vienna displaced (Angew. Chem. Int. Ed. 2014, 53, 7068) the racemic chloride 23 with diethyl zinc to give 24 as a single diastereomer.

There is increasing concern over the possibility of the occurrence of huge Toukai, Tonankai, and Nankai earthquakes in the Nankai Trough, located in the Pacific Ocean off Japan. It is estimated that there is a 50% probability of a tsunami being generated by an earthquake in this area over the next 30 years. A tsunami attack on the coast of Japan would not only increase the sea level, but would also create strong horizontal flows in bays and ports. In particular, along the coastal area of Osaka Bay, Japan, there are numerous small ports where pleasure ships and/or fishery boats are moored. Any small ships moored in these ports would be subject to violent motion by strong lateral flows, even if they are moored to each other. As a consequence, the mooring lines would be cut, ships would move uncontrollably, and causing damage to facilities. Thus, it is very important from the viewpoint of marine-disaster prevention to gain a better understanding of the motion of small vessels originating in tsunami flows and to develop countermeasures in the face of a tsunami attack. In this paper, basic analyses of the ship motions resulting from a tsunami attack are carried out, and possible countermeasures are investigated. First, we describe mathematical models approximating the flow of tsunami and the abrupt maneuvers of relatively small vessels while being moored. Next, numerical simulations of the lateral motion of moored ships resulting from a tsunami attack on a fishery port located in the Osaka Bay are carried out. Additionally, the possibility of relatively high tension to be generated along the mooring lines is evaluated. Finally, the results of computer simulations demonstrate that such hazardous phenomena can be addressed with appropriate countermeasures.

This is a study on how to retain distribution functions at the port in the large-scale industrial disaster prevention scheme at the time of great earthquakes. Urgent need for such efforts has been mounting in recent years. Industrial disaster prevention scheme is, in other words, Business Continuity Management (BCM), which enables continuity of important businesses while trying to make an early recovery of overall business activities at the time of great earthquakes. When an earthquake occurs, it is important to quickly resume businesses after an initial period of confusion. For this purpose, it is necessary to make a large-scale restoration plan, including the restoration of social infrastructure. In the Chubu Metropolitan Area in Japan where the city of Nagoya is the center, the global division of labor has been rapidly in progress. The businesses are developing more and more within the framework of closely and finely-knit global supply-chains between domestic and overseas enterprises. It is one of the areas where Business Continuity Management is in urgent need. The subject of the case study in this paper is all international distribution activities at the Port of Nagoya in the Chubu Metropolitan area where Tokai, Tou-Nankai or Nankai Earthquakes is anticipated in the near future. The concept of the Business Continuity Management shall be developed through research on the current measures taken by the enterprises and organizations who are the port-users. Then the goals and problems regarding the recovery of port functions will be identified. Furthermore, we will attempt to propose technological means to solve the problems and achieve the goals. This paper starts with the analysis of the questionnaires to about 30 member companies and organizations of Industry Disaster Management Panel. The next section consists of two parts; the first half is devoted to the function recovery planning on the shore, and the second half discusses the function restoration of the section on the sea within the port. We believe this study will provide valuable guidelines for the port function recovery in the Chubu area at the time of earthquakes. It will also serve as effective guiding philosophy for many ports in Japan and around the world which face similar problems.

Full textAbstract:
In the network of global economy, urban places as the spatial effect of globalization that results from the negotiation between international capitals and local powers play an important role in globalization discourse. The transformation of urban form also responses to the entrepreneurial turn in the municipal governance that affects city planning in particular. The role of municipal governments due to global economic competitions shifts from a passive regulation operator to an active agent to increase attractiveness for local investments and fiscal incomes. Danwei as ‘the space of the socialist work unit’ and its residential compound Dayuan referring ‘a large courtyard’ in Chinese term have shaped the urban landscape and everyday life since Maoist China. The unitary urban space that emerged under a command economy favoring the governmental intervention has varied over time. Many Dayuan neighborhoods have diminished in urban renewal movements. As the study object, Houzaimen neighborhood of Nanjing has the well-reserved Dayuan fabric built before 1990. Most researches emphasize the top-down planning process that results in social and physical space while this article underlines self-organized community. By methods of site surveys and space syntax for site analysis, the identifiable pattern of self-organization including the social buildup and the subculture of residents, residential ownerships and the allocation of commercial activities compared to public institutions and facilities on site reveals the place-shaping mechanism.

"Extreme Directional and Planar Profiles for Kuroshio Current Using Inverse FORM and Proper Orthogonal Decomposition."

Full textAbstract:
Kuroshio is a major global current that flows near the east coasts of Taiwan and Japan. Kuroshio is a relatively strong current with typical speeds of 3 to 5 knots at the water surface. It is important to properly understand extreme current profiles of these currents for any drilling activity since the response of deepwater risers is known to be sensitive to the shape of the current profile. This paper presents the derivation of extreme two-dimensional (i.e., directional) and planar profiles for Kuroshio currents at a site in Nankai Trough, Japan; water depth is almost 2000 m. About 6000 currents profiles measured over six months in 2010 by JAMSTEC are used. The inverse first-order reliability method (inverse FORM) and proper orthogonal decomposition (POD) technique are employed. While such methodology is well established, its use for this site posed several challenges. Firstly, the first two modes contribute only about 90% of the energy. Therefore, as many as seven modes were included for accuracy. Since an exact solution requiring joint probability distribution for seven variables becomes quite cumbersome, reasonable simplifications were made for efficient calculations. Second, to preserve the directionality in extreme currents, the inverse FORM problem for the two orthogonal components of the current velocity was simultaneously solved, so that extreme profiles for the two planar directions are obtained. Doing so implies solving a four-dimensional inverse FORM problem, even if the full joint distribution of first two modal weights for each direction is used. This four-dimensional problem was reduced to two related two-dimensional problems, wherein the modal vectors in the orthogonal directions are assumed independent; this assumption was found to be valid for this data set. A set containing a limited number of extreme N-year current profiles is derived using the above methodology. It is found that most of the shapes observed in the measured Kuroshio current data are represented in this set of extreme current profiles. The largest riser response obtained from all these current profiles would be the N-year response. A single extreme N-year profile is often sought in analysis, which is also derived from the set of N-year profiles by selecting the profile which maximizes an assumed response function. In summary, this paper presents extreme currents for a site on which little literature exists, and introduces a methodology to derive extreme directional current profiles from measured data.
