The last mute film in Carl Th. Dreyer’s oeuvre, The Passion of Joan of Arc (1928), is often referred to as a film “made of close-ups” and purely cinematic. Dreyer used to stress himself that close-up was the specific cinematic device that asserted film’s position as autonomous art. He especially insisted on film’s independence from theatre. Thus, it might sound quite surprising that in an intervie
Artikel 101 i fördraget om Europeiska unionens funktionssätt (FEUF) gäller för företag och förbjuder företag att ingå avtal som potentiellt kan påverka konkurrensen på marknaden. Konkurrensen på marknaden i Europeiska unionen (EU) är ett mål som EU strävar efter att upprätthålla och skydda. Detta är främst för att upprätthålla en marknad som är rättvis för kunderna, men också för att samhället skaArticle 101 of the Treaty on the Functioning of the European Union (TFEU) applies to undertakings and prohibits undertakings to enter into an agreement that could potentially affect the competition on the market. The competition on the market in the European Union (EU) is an objective that the EU aims to maintain and protect. This is mainly to maintain a market that is fair for the customers but a
BACKGROUND: The Scandinavian Neurotrauma Committees (SNC) guideline is a validated and well established decision tool for pediatric minor to moderate head trauma in Sweden, categorizing patients into low, moderate and high risk for intracranial injury. It recommends observation over imaging with computer tomography in low and moderate risk stratified patients. However the effect on guideline imple
Aims and Objectives/Purpose/Research Questions:Our paper outlines the development of vocabulary proficiency tests for minority languages and addresses the challenges in doing so.Design/Methodology/Approach:The strategies are exemplified based on recently developed tests for Sicilian and Venetan, two large languages in Italy without official status. Users of these types of languages tend to have on
The main indication for cytologic study of the liver is the evaluation of mass-forming lesions, either symptomatic or incidentally discovered. Recent major progress in imaging methods is shifting the spectrum of cytologic diagnostics toward smaller lesions, which are often challenging. The convenience of relatively easy fine-needle aspiration (FNA) procedures with high diagnostic accuracy and low
The experimental realization of quantum molecular spectroscopy with entangled photons remains challenging owing to the low signal-to-noise ratio resulting from the use of low-flux entangled photons. High-flux entangled photons via intense entangled beams can be used to improve the signal-to-noise ratio, but the presence of unentangled photons contaminates the quantum signal stemming from entangled
The mosque (both as masjid or jāmiʿ) is recognized as the first Muslim educational space for formal and informal learnings, for children and adults alike. Although the mosque remained as one of the primary centers of Islamic studies in various disciplines to this day, the Muslim cities from the Middle Ages onward have witnessed the emergence of specific institutions for Islamic education. Kuttābs
The chapter examines the flourishing hagiographical production during the Macedonian age, a period marked by intense rewriting of earlier Greek hagiography. This rewriting culminated in the Metaphrastic menologion, compiled by Symeon Metaphrastes in the late tenth century. Following the end of the iconoclastic controversy until Symeon, a clear progression is attested from an initial monastic inter
A model for strategic communication management was developed in South Africa on the basis of the excellence study and relationship management theories. This normative, theoretical model has been applied as part of a project in non-profit organisations (NPOs), government institutions and small-to-medium sized companies. However, the operational reality of organisations’ communication practices has
A dermal sling (DS) is used to cover the implant with two layers of tissue when immediate breast reconstruction is performed in women with large and ptotic breasts. It works as an autologous acellular dermal matrix/mesh that can be used to control the implant pocket and inframammary fold, without inferring an extra foreign material and higher costs. There is relatively little published about the D
Water 2H and 17O spin relaxation data for the microemulsion phase in the AOT/D 2O/isooctane system are reported. The difference between the transverse (R 2) and the longitudinal (R 1) relaxation rates has been measured as function of droplet size, droplet volume fraction, temperature, and resonance frequency. The 2H longitudinal relaxation rate dispersion has been measured over an extensive freque
Water oxygen-17 relaxation rates have been measured for aqueous solutions of micelles composed of ionic surfactants of varying alkyl chain length, head group, and counterion. The concentration of surfactant and salt was also varied. From these measurements, supplemented with relaxation data for short-chain molecules and with quadrupolar splittings from anisotropic mesophases, we derive structural
Objective: ACTH is considered a weak marker for autonomous cortisol secretion (ACS) in patients with adrenal incidentalomas (AIs). Our aim was to investigate suppressed basal ACTH as a marker of ACS and to elucidate why this criterion is of limited value. Methods: Basal ACTH and cortisol after overnight dexamethasone suppression test (cortisolONDST) were measured in 198 patients with unilateral AI
This paper provides exact analysis of a model for sustainable control of a one-warehouse-N-retailer inventory system with time based shipment consolidation. The model is motivated by discussions with industry, and involves the possibility to reserve intermodal transportation capacity in combination with truck transports available on demand. Inventories are reviewed continuously while shipments fro
