Full textAbstract:
Illegal consumer file sharing of motion pictures is considered a major threat to the movie industry. Whereas industry advocates and some scholars postulate a cannibalistic effect on commercial forms of movie consumption, other researchers deny this effect, though sound evidence is lacking on both sides. Drawing on extant research and utility theory, the authors present hypotheses on the consequences and determinants of consumer file sharing and test them with data from a controlled longitudinal panel study of German consumers. The data contain information on the consumers' intentions toward and actual behavior in relation to the consumption of 25 new motion pictures, allowing the authors to study more than 10,000 individual file-sharing opportunities. The authors test the effect of file sharing on commercial movie consumption using a series of ReLogit regression analyses and apply partial least squares structural equation modeling to identify the determinants of consumer file sharing. They find evidence of substantial cannibalization of theater visits, DVD rentals, and DVD purchases responsible for annual revenue losses of $300 million in Germany. Five categories of file-sharing behavior drive file sharing and have a significant impact on how consumers obtain and watch illegal movie copies.

Full textAbstract:
Due to the interdisciplinary nature of design education, it has a very broad spectrum ranging from motion picture to informative design methods. Animation techniques are also one of the important parts of this wide variety of work. Today, almost every institution is involved in animation techniques in design education. Animation with various application methods is the field where the most creative examples of motion pictures are revealed. The purpose of this research is to discuss the place of flip book animation in design education and to investigate its contributions to design education, which is one of the creative animation techniques.It is considerably significant that students experience how the form of motion pictures is created through one of the methods at a beginning level and understand the nature of motion picture in design education process. Flip book animation, is a method by which students will be able to grasp the logic of creating motion pictures using static drawing or photography. Flip book animation is one of the first animation techniques to be achieved by combining successive still images processed with different surfaces. It may be considered as an old and outdated motion pictures technique for that reason, yet there are still flip book festivals and it is used as an effective method in teaching animation process.

The development of motion pictures coincided with the development of active publicity campaigns by the Canadian Pacific Railway Company. It did not take the CPR long to realize the potential of the new medium and capitalize on the public's fascination with train and motion. In order to encoutage immigration and settlement to western Canada, the company developed an extensive system of promotion which included the use of films. CPR filmmaking fell broadly into two categories, those which were designed with a specific intent to educate, inform and persuade and those which were primarily intended as entertainment. If CPR did not define the type of filmmaking rathet it facilitated the production of contemporary appeal.

Full textAbstract:
The use of film and video in sociological research, or social sciences in general, has a long and well-established tradition. Motion pictures have, on the one hand, been the object of analysis, as in the case of sociology of film, and, on the other, they have been used as a research tool. Moreover, films can be scientific statements in their own right, as is the case with sociological film.
The use of visual methods based on both still and moving pictures works very well for exploring the physical and social space of the city. The article looks at ways of using films and the actual process of obtaining film data in sociological research. Works featuring urban themes will be considered as special cases to illustrate the author’s reflections. It is noteworthy that early cinema already showed urban space, as exemplified in the films by the Lumière brothers who, incidentally, treated their motion pictures primarily as a scientific tool.
City-related topics appear in research by film sociologists who analysed films featuring urban themes, among other things. Later, sociologists themselves began to use cameras in their studies and teaching. One way of using a camera for these purposes is simply to record observations of certain places and people’s behaviour. These video recordings are subsequently analysed, applying various methods developed in the field of sociology and other sciences. Another technique, well-suited for exploring urban space, is a mobile camera, used for example for video tours, as introduced by Sarah Pink. And, finally, sociological film focusing on the city plays a vital role in social research.

An optional spatial 3D material solid reality picture may be showed on a 2D showing plane, its surface is commonly consisted of too many sub-surfaces of the 3D solid reality picture in both dispersal and continuation. It was a difficult problem to express all exact visibilities of solids sub-surfaces; because of some numerals computational error properties of visibilities are always unknown. So far, we cannot choose but select a proper dispersal degree of materials sub-surfaces, an approaching function of an optional material sub-surfaces B-Rep (Bound Representation), and numerals computation without any perturbation motion, etc. A novel numeral computational method of expressing exact visibilities of 3D spatial materials solids reality pictures with intelligent properties of VCR is given in this paper.

Full textAbstract:
The article focuses on the problem of research methodology in linguistics and argues that motion pictures, or feature films, provide a good source of empirical data for a realistic investigation of language as a communicative behavior. Evidence from epistemology and philosophy of science shows that scriptism and rationalism as two dominating methodologies in traditional linguistics do not give a whole picture of language functionality because through them we cannot observe a human's communicative behavior in dynamics. The aim of the article is to offer an alternative understanding of the subject-matter, method and data for linguistic research which would be grounded on human experience observable in films. In particular, the term 'languaging' is adopted to describe the dynamic process of experience construction in referential and attentional framings. The investigation of languaging is thus based on the principle of holism, circularity and 'double perspectival' view of one's experience. The author of the article gives a number of reasons why written texts alone do not provide reliable data in this respect and why motion pictures are a more viable alternative. The paper introduces the methodology of holistic research and open-ended experiential analysis and demonstrates in a case study how counterfactuals as grammatically and experientially enacted patterns can be observed and investigated in the film Atonement.

This research presents content analysis to the cultural repertoire of Marvel Cinematic Universe�s superhero motion pictures. It investigates the content, theme, and core ideas of Avengers sequels: The Avengers (2012), Avengers: Age of Ultron (2015), Avengers: Infinity War (2018), and Avengers: Endgame (2019). It explores how the Avengers sequels portrays recontextualization of superhero characters and whether as well as to what extent it provides US cultural monomyth. The finding shows that each character of the Avengers has flaws and vulnerabilities as common human beings that leave them from traditional superhero monomyth. Nevertheless, it still illustrates US cultural imperialism, pharmakon portrayal, hegemonic masculinity, and sovereignty. These motion pictures still serve US heroism and patriotism interest as well as binary interplay: order-chaos, law-violence and villain-superhero that occurs among superheroes, extra-terrestrial race, robots and Titans despite its recontextualized characters. Moreover, it depicts the traditional masculine ideal valorisation where men are more likely powerful, intelligent, and equipped by sophisticated technology whereas women are seen as supportive superheroes with implied beauty standards. The recommendation for future research is discussed.

Full textAbstract:
The post-theatrical exhibition has become essential for motion pictures to break even. Nevertheless, besides the first attempts to study TV broadcasters and streaming providers as release windows, academic research in marketing has concentrated primarily on the initial theat-rical release. This article examines factors influencing supply and demand during the sequential release process of the motion picture industry. The authors build a modelling framework to ana-lyze the drivers resulting in comprehensive supply and strong demand in major exhibition win-dows (i.e., during the home video, video-on-demand, and free-to-air TV exhibition). They esti-mate the conceptual model of regressions using market data from Germany, including all 5 200 theater-released motion pictures between 2005 and 2014. The authors expand the existing suc-cess-breeds-success theory and use a winner-takesall theory to explain market supply and de-mand in sequential distribution. The results reveal a limited set of influencing factors (e.g., word-of-mouth communication or certain genres) that increase the probability of comprehensive exhibition and strong demand. Other influencing factors depend on the exhibition window (e.g., age ratings). The results add to existing theories of sequential distribution and can help research-ers and managers improve movie-specific exhibition strategies.

Full textAbstract:
This paper examines the global film industry through a detailed discussion of four national players (US, Canada, China, and Hong Kong). According to Porter, the international competitiveness of any industry cluster is shaped by four characteristics of the domestic market: demand conditions, factor endowments, firm rivalry, and supporting industries. The authors assess the film industry in these countries in terms of the four factors of national competitiveness and conclude that only the US possesses all of them at this juncture. Moreover, they propose that the exclusivity of US interests in the global distribution system creates competitive dynamics that neither Porter nor critics such as Rugman have fully explored. It is in this context that this paper discusses co-production as an alternative means for nations to develop⁄improve competitiveness through exploitation of overseas markets. Based on their analysis of the film industry of the US, Canada, China, and Hong Kong, the authors make the following observations: There is a need to increase the presence of Canada⁄Canadian film co-productions with other countries as there may be greater opportunities for large Canadian producers to leverage both their US connections and their home country's treaties to create a unique pool of film-making resources. The potential size of the Chinese film audience makes it attractive to other nations. However, the Chinese government's monopoly over film imports, pirated home versions, and denial of access to the official film distribution channels are major barriers to entry. Despite the massive historical price gap between domestic and foreign movies, box office figures would suggest that Chinese audiences prefer the latter. Another popular option is cheap, pirated home versions. Hong Kong's box office size, domestic box office share, and number of domestic productions have been decimated over the past decade and, hence, Hong Kong producers' main option is to find stronger opportunities in mainland China. Being the only external co-production partner nation of China and Hong Kong, Canada has in place the foundations for a powerful competitive position in these regions relative to other foreign entrants. According to the authors, further research in this field could include an analysis of coproductions within Europe or of emerging co-production blocs across other regions. For instance, Canada is currently in the process of concluding a co-production treaty with India which has the potential to clear barriers between the two powerful yet traditionally quite segregated film industries of the subcontinent and North America. This is indicative of the fact that the governments and the movie industries are gaining power to change the global competitive scenario in films.

Full textAbstract:
To tackle obesity, upgrading the image of healthy food is increasingly relevant. Rather than focusing on long-term benefits, an effective way to promote healthy food consumption through visual advertising is to increase its pleasure perception. We investigate whether implied motion, a popular trend in food pictures, affects food perceptions through anticipated consumption pleasure. Prior research shows that motion affects food perceptions, but these studies focused on limited food categories, using experiments with a single food stimulus, and mainly showing unhealthy food effects. Therefore, we aim to (1) replicate prior findings on the effects of food in motion on appeal, tastiness, healthiness, and freshness perceptions; (2) examine whether these effects differ for healthy and unhealthy food; and (3) investigate whether anticipated pleasure of consumption drives the effects of implied motion on food perceptions. Three between-subjects experiments (N = 626) reveal no evidence for the effectiveness of motion (vs. no motion) across a large variety of food products. We further show no differential effects for healthy versus unhealthy foods. Moreover, implied motion does not increase appeal or taste perceptions through anticipated pleasure. Considering the current replication crisis, these findings provide more nuanced insights into the effectiveness of motion in visual food advertising.

Abstract Research has indicated that during sentence processing, French native speakers predominantly rely upon lexico-semantic cues (i.e., animacy) while native speakers of English rely upon syntactic cues (i.e., word order). The present study examined sentence production in L1 French/L2 English and L1 English/L2 French sequential bilinguals. Participants used animate and inanimate entities as sentence subjects while describing motion events represented by static pictures. To test a gradual change in animacy cue weighting in second-language sequential bilinguals with different proficiency levels were included. Sentence production of sequential bilinguals was compared against that of simultaneous bilinguals. The results indicated an overall preference for the use of animate subjects for both languages at all proficiency levels. The effect of animacy was stronger for English L2 than French L2 while it did not differ between languages in simultaneous bilinguals. Evidence for potential change in the animacy-cue weighting was only observed for English L2.

Full textAbstract:
With the development of science and technology, the introduction of virtual reality technology has pushed the development of human-computer interaction technology to a new height. The combination of virtual reality and human-computer interaction technology has been applied more and more in military simulation, medical rehabilitation, game creation, and other fields. Action is the basis of human behavior. Among them, human behavior and action analysis is an important research direction. In human behavior and action, recognition research based on behavior and action has the characteristics of convenience, intuition, strong interaction, rich expression information, and so on. It has become the first choice of many researchers for human behavior analysis. However, human motion and motion pictures are complex objects with many ambiguous factors, which are difficult to express and process. Traditional motion recognition is usually based on two-dimensional color images, while two-dimensional RGB images are vulnerable to background disturbance, light, environment, and other factors that interfere with human target detection. In recent years, more and more researchers have begun to use fuzzy mathematics theory to identify human behaviors. The plantar pressure data under different motion modes were collected through experiments, and the current gait information was analyzed. The key gait events including toe-off and heel touch were identified by dynamic baseline monitoring. For the error monitoring of key gait events, the screen window is used to filter the repeated recognition events in a certain period of time, which greatly improves the recognition accuracy and provides important gait information for motion pattern recognition. The similarity matching is performed on each template, the correct rate of motion feature extraction is 90.2%, and the correct rate of motion pattern recognition is 96.3%, which verifies the feasibility and effectiveness of human motion recognition based on fuzzy theory. It is hoped to provide processing techniques and application examples for artificial intelligence recognition applications.

Full textAbstract:
Purpose This paper aims to empirically examine how atmospherics affect word of mouth (WOM) about the brand. The authors focus primarily on uncovering the causal mechanism in which such effect is serially mediated by both perceived positive emotions evoked by atmospherics and attitude toward the brand. Design/methodology/approach To test the research hypotheses, 314 Greek moviegoers were drafted to participate in a survey. Data were analysed using confirmatory factor analysis (AMOS) and the SPSS macro (PROCESS tool). The model was applied to motion pictures, as they provide a particularly good example of short life-cycle products. Findings Findings indicate that atmospherics are related to WOM about the brand through perceived emotions evoked by atmospherics and, in turn, attitude toward the brand. Research limitations/implications The present study extends the relevant literature by providing both direct and indirect links between atmospherics and WOM about a brand. Practical implications The model of the present study could be applied to other short life-cycle products that share key characteristics with motion pictures. Moreover, the present study increases movie producers and exhibitors’ understanding of the effects of theatre atmospherics on WOM about the movie and leads to practical suggestions and implications. Originality/value WOM is one of the key variables that can affect the profitability of short life-cycle products. To date, there was no evidence that atmospherics can influence WOM about a short life-cycle product.

Presentation of information for educational institutions is one of the most important means to introduce the institutions to the public. Raudhatul Athfal (RA) Ar-Rasyid Tanjungpinang needs media that can promote and provide information about the institution, because the number of registrants is decreasing during current years. This research was conducted with the creation of the institution’s profile video that applies elements of live shoot and motion graphics to easily convey information in short duration videos, and to make the profile video look interesting. The stage of making a profile video is starting from taking pictures directly (live shoot), editing to rendering process. Based on the process of designing, implementation, testing and discussion, it can be concluded that this research has been able to produce a profile video that can be used as a promotional mean for attracting new students in 2017/2018 at RA Ar-Rasyid Tanjungpinang. The result shows that 77% of 98 applicants have been informed through video profiles distributed with Videotron.

Abstract The Canadian National Seismograph Network (CNSN) operated by Natural Resources Canada consists of approximately 200 stations. Data from this network are used to produce the national earthquake catalog, to provide alerts in the aftermath of an earthquake, to develop the national seismic hazard maps, and for research within Canada and internationally. A significant upgrade to the instrumentation and infrastructure of the CNSN, which began in 2014, is nearing completion. The newly refurbished network is uniform in terms of instrumentation with the remaining single-component short-period stations converted to three-component broadband stations and consistent sampling rates across the network. Strong-motion instruments are now collocated with weak-motion instruments at many sites in all regions of Canada, and there is also a significant increase in the number of stand-alone strong-motion sites. Improvements in telecommunications were aimed at improving reliability and decreasing latency. All upgraded stations undergo a series of quality checks before the data are approved for dissemination. Data from the CNSN are freely available to the seismological community and the general public.

AbstractDynamic conceptualization is a fundamental notion in cognitive linguistics. Abstract motion is one type of dynamic conceptualization. It is said to structure descriptions of static scenes such as ‘The mountain range goes from Mexico to Canada’, and in doing so, invokes a subjective sense of motion or state change. In recent years, a growing body of experimental research supports this claim. However, additional work is needed to understand the dynamics of abstract motion and the extent to which it generalizes. This paper provides some background on abstract motion and reports two new experiments that investigate two unexplored types of abstract motion, including visual paths and pattern paths. Together, the results indicate that abstract motion plays a central role in language use and understanding.

Reading is an important skill for developing second language competence. The success of a learning a second language is by taking the power of reading. In the classroom, we will face many techniques applied to the students under the expectation that they are able to or easy to understand the lesson. For a teacher, it is necessary to find new teaching media to overcome the problems and not to forget to motivate the students. In this paper, the writer wants to know the effect of picture as a media to improve students’ reading comprehension. The purpose of this research is to find out whether the use of pictures can improve students’ reading comprehension or not. To make the students easily understand about the reading material, teacher needs to have a teaching media. Then, the writer chooses visual media that is picture to increase students’ reading mastery. Pictures are considered as the best media in teaching reading because using picture as a teaching media are able to give the students a clear illustration regarding the correlated topics in texts, tell the students what is going on, and what are the persons in the text are talking about. Nowadays, the pictures and the technologies are becoming more and more advanced. In this decade, we can already materialize a more advanced picture that added by motion and sounds by using simple applications provided in home personal computer. Moreover, the students now are quite used and interested to apply any high tech media.
Based on the result of discussion, it can be concluded that pictures are theoretically can be a good media to help the students enhancing their reading comprehension. Therefore in this view, it is justifiable to hypothetically conclude that using pictures for strengthening students’ visual sense can help them to understand a text.

Full textAbstract:
Operational experience in Canada during the early seventies showed that hovercraft can make very effective icebreakers. In a low speed mode, the hovercraft causes an air cavity to form under the sheet as it rides onto it. This causes a section of the sheet to become unsupported and fail in bending under the action of its own weight. In a high speed mode, the motion of the craft over the sheet sets up large amplitude flexural gravity waves. Research into both modes of operation has been going on at Memorial University of Newfoundland (MUN) since the mid-eighties. This paper summarizes this work. For the low speed case, scaling laws for the resistance to forward motion of two new geometries were developed and confirmed with data obtained in the ice tank at the Institute for Marine Dynamics (IMD) in Newfoundland. For the high speed case, measurements of sheet deflections in the MUN wave tank and the IMD ice tank showed that a critical speed exists for motion over a sheet. At this speed, sheet deflections are limited only by dissipation and nonlinearities. We believe this critical speed is the source of high speed mode hovercraft icebreaking. Key words: hovercraft, icebreakers, air cavity mode, wave mode.

From 1920 to 1947, the “Marines’ Hymn” was a familiar sound over the radio waves and in motion pictures. Beyond its popular appeal, however, the hymn was scrutinized by Marine Corps leadership under the reforms of Major General Commandant John A. Lejeune, subjected to a prolonged ownership dispute, updated during a world war, and given an official birthday. This article continues the author’s research on the topic and examines these important milestones in the history of the “Marines’ Hymn” and the conflicts that arose as Marine Corps leadership attempted to maintain and promote one dignified official version that would foster a positive public image for the increasingly professional Corps.

The primary objective of a weigh-in-motion (WIM) system is to provide highway designers and agencies with information on the loads and traffic volumes using a particular highway, thereby facilitating improved pavement design, management, and weight enforcement. In this paper, the historic performance of WIM systems in Manitoba is evaluated. The results indicate that large numbers of unreasonable data are produced from the WIM systems, calibration procedures are not standardized, and there is drift in calibration. The performance of the Brokenhead WIM system was evaluated through a detailed survey conducted at the Brokenhead WIM site and the Westhawk Permanent Truck Weigh Station in August 1997. The Brokenhead site is on the Trans-Canada highway east of Winnipeg. It is the only WIM system in the country that measures truck characteristics and movements between eastern and western Canada. The survey produced a large database permitting the comparison of truck dimension measurements, truck weights, and vehicle classification between those produced by the WIM system and those observed manually. The results indicate that WIM axle-spacing data sets were outside the tolerance for 95% conformity specified by the American Society for Testing and Materials (ASTM). The system classified 5 to 9 axle combination trucks more accurately than some 2- and 3-axle vehicles. The WIM system underestimated about 90% of truck weights in the survey period. The degree of underestimation exceeded 50% of the corresponding static weights. This finding highlights the importance of quality control and corrections on WIM data prior to their use in research or engineering practice.Key words: weigh-in-motion, vehicle classification, calibration, axle spacing, axle load.

Full textAbstract:
A huge number of scientific research institutions and scholars are now researching this topic in depth, with promising results. Meanwhile, research development in dance visual frequency movement detection is rather modest due to the high complexity of dance movement and the challenges of human body self-shielding in dance performance. Aiming at the problem of the combination of motion recognition and dance video, the feature extraction, representation, and motion recognition methods based on dance video are emphatically studied. This paper studies an effective feature extraction method according to the characteristics of dance movements. Firstly, each dance movement video in the data set is separated into equal sections, and the edge characteristics of all video pictures in each segment are gathered into one image, from which the direction gradient histogram features are extracted. Secondly, a group of directional gradient histogram feature vectors is used to represent the local appearance information and shape features of the video dance moves. In view of the existing problem of heterogeneous feature fusion, this paper chooses the multi-core learning method to fuse the three kinds of features for dance movement recognition. Finally, the effectiveness of the proposed dance movement detection algorithm is tested using the Dance DB data set from the University of Cyprus and the Folk Dance data set from my laboratory. Experimental results show that the proposed algorithm can maintain a certain recognition rate for relatively complex dance movements and can still ensure a certain accuracy when the background and target are easily confused. This also confirms the efficacy of the movement recognition system used in this paper for recognizing dance movements.

Destinations are constantly searching for new ways to create new products in order to attract visitors. In this context, film-themed guided tours have generated additional attractiveness for screened locations in motion pictures. Previous research has recognized the relevance of guide's performance-role on guided tours. Nevertheless, little attention has been paid to the role storytelling plays in themed tours. Therefore, this article aims to examine how storytelling takes place in film-themed guided tours and which are the factors that influence it. By means of naturalistic participant observation and an inductive thematic analysis, three different film-themed guided tours in London are studied. Findings reveal five influential factors (story, guide's background, guide's skills, support material, and visitors) that offer deeper insights into storytelling in film-themed tours. Future research and managerial implications of the research are also provided.

AbstractThe following article is based on a presentation given as part of Symposium X—Frontiers of Materials Research on December 4, 2002, at the 2002 Materials Research Society Fall Meeting. The cinema is just over 100 years old. From the beginning of motion pictures in the mid-1890s, the materials used for films have been at the heart of cinema technology. The material first used was cellulose nitrate film—unrivaled in its mechanical, physical, and aesthetic qualities, and also dangerously flammable. In the 1950s, cellulose nitrate was replaced, for safety reasons, by cellulose triacetate. Today, polyester film is widely used; nevertheless, the fact remains that the majority of the world's film heritage exists on two main material formats, cellulose nitrate and cellulose triacetate, both of which decay over time. Film archivists are engaged in a race to save historic film footage from being lost forever. Digital technology, now widely used in cinema, does not resolve the issue of the long-term preservation of films because digital formats are still evolving. This article discusses the materials used in motion-picture technology over the years, the mechanisms active in film decomposition, and international efforts to preserve and restore historic films.

Among many sports, badminton is one of the most popular events and it is deeply loved by people. However, there is relatively little research on pose recognition and prediction of badminton, so this paper uses video image analysis to perform badminton action recognition prediction and action classification. In order to better realize the lower limb movement pattern recognition and motion posture prediction of badminton players, this paper chooses BP neural network algorithm to establish a badminton motion posture recognition and prediction model based on video image analysis. The simulation results of the models are compared, and it is found that the recognition of the motion pose and the prediction model established by the neural network are accurate, and they almost coincide with the actual motion trend. In this paper, a face detection and recognition framework is established. The algorithm is used to filter the pictures of the input recognition network. Through calculation, the average accuracy rate of the face detection algorithm realized in this paper can reach 92.6%. This shows that the face detection algorithm implemented in this paper basically meets the standards. In this paper, a single inertial sensor is used to classify and recognize badminton movements using sensors located on the right wrist, left wrist, waist, and right ankle. This shows that the right wrist is the best position and achieves different strokes.

The debate over the collection of justice statistics by race continues to hinge on the same key issues that were central to the debate when it arose in the early 1990s. There has been one major change, however: whereas racial minority groups were once vehemently opposed to the collection of justice statistics by race, for fear that such statistics would be used to justify discriminatory policies, many minority groups are now advocating for the collection and publication of this data as a means to redress racial discrimination in the administration of justice. Having discussed the lack of available data on racial and ethnic statistics in the Canadian justice system, the authors sought support from the Canadian Law and Society Association (CLSA). At the 2009 annual general meeting of the CLSA, a motion for the association to take an official position in support of the collection of justice statistics by race was put forth by the authors and accepted by the association. At this time it was also decided that a committee would be established to conduct relevant research and to lobby for the collection of pertinent data. At present we are asking interested individuals or organizations who fall into one or more of the following categories to contact the first author:(1) Those with arguments relating to the collection of justice statistics by race that have not been articulated in the debate that has taken place over the past two decades.(2) Those with information pertaining to the collection of justice statistics by race that is not readily available or that has not been documented in the academic work referenced herein.(3) Those who are interested in participating in the work of the committee outlined at the end of this paper.

Following some beliefs, persons with albinism” do not die but vanish” to later “return as ghosts to haunt the living.” The author discusses this paradox about persons with albinism identified as hunted victims and simultaneously haunting perpetrators. The research examines the concept of albinism being a curse from dead ancestors or theodicy and its association with supernatural powers. By a comparative and diachronic approach, the study challenges unsubstantiated stereotypes. This study aims at social awareness by demystifying established myths and discussing study cases and examples referring to media, art, performing arts, literature, photography, and motion pictures.

Banyak media yang digunakan pemerintah untuk melakukan sosialisasi pencegahan kanker serviks ke masyarakat, khususnya remaja, seperti iklan layanan masyarakat. Kelemahan dari media yang sudah ada tersebut terletak pada cara penyampaian yang kurang menampilkan visualisasi dengan baik sehingga dianggap tidak menarik. Hal ini dibuktikan dari masih kurangnya pengetahuan remaja tentang ilmu kesehatan reproduksi. Penulis melihat perlu dikembangkan media informasi alternatif untuk remaja yang mampu menyampaikan informasi dengan lebih baik. Cara yang digunakan dalam penelitian ini untuk membuat sebuah iklan layanan masyarakat lebih menarik adalah dengan membuat tampilan dari iklan tersebut berbeda dengan yang lainya. Salah satu caranya adalah denganmenggunakan teknik dan gaya motion graphic. Motion graphic ini mampu menyampaikan hal rumit dengan gambar dan animasi yang sederhana sehingga mudah dipahami. Pengujian efektivitas penyampaian pesan dilakukan dengan pembagian kuisioner uji soal mengenai Kanker Serviks. Pembagian kuisioner dilakukan setelah iklan ditayangkan kepada 35 orang siswa putri di SMKN 1 Denpasar. Hasil pengujian menunjukkan hasil bahwa 97,14% remaja menjawab dengan benar virus yang menyebabkan kanker serviks. Hal ini ditunjukkan dengan setelah diberikan pertanyaan tentang virus penyebabnya, sebagaian besar siswa menjawab dengan benar.

Far from being merely a medium of simplification and conveyance of scientific facts, motion pictures exhibit an important epistemic function. On the one hand, the medium film is itself a product of research in various fields, on the other hand, it retroacts on perception and problem-solving in science, thereby influencing and changing research practices. The paper aims at describing these reciprocal effects and synergies by discussing two examples: first by the film “The principles of Einstein’s theory of relativity”, first released in Germany in 1922, second by the film “Mathematical image of the struggle for life”, produced in 1937 for the inauguration of the “Palace of discoveries” in Paris, demonstrating the latest developments in evolutionary theory. It becomes evident that picture media have the capacity to transform the symbolic dimension of things and bodies, thereby offering new access to reality, which not only fascinated the spectators, but also inspired scientific research.

Full textAbstract:
In level ice, the maneuvering motion of icebreakers has a major influence on the global ice loads of the hull. This study researched the influences of the drift angle and turning radius on the ice loads of the icebreaker Xue Long through a partial numerical method based on the linear superposition theory of ice loads. First, with reference to the Araon model tests performed by the Korea Research Institute of Ships and Ocean Engineering (KRISO), numerical simulations of Araon’s direct motion were carried out at different speeds, and the average deviation between numerical results and model test results was about 13.8%. Meanwhile, the icebreaking process and modes were analyzed and discussed, compared with a model test and a full-scale ship trial. Next, the maneuvering captive motions of oblique and constant radius were simulated to study the characteristics of ice loads under different drift angles and turning radii. Compared with the maneuvering motion model tests in the ice tank of Tianjin University and the Institute for Ocean Technology of the National Research Council of Canada (NRC/IOT), the numerical results had good agreement with the model test results in terms of the variation trend of ice loads and ice–hull interaction, and the influences of drift angle and turning radius on ice resistance and transverse force, which have a certain reference value for sailing performance research and the design of the hull form of icebreaker ships, are discussed.

Lately, BlackBerry is familiar in many people, especially due to the publicity of problems between Indonesia’s communication and information ministry and Canada-based BlackBerry developer, Research in Motion (RIM). In doing the research, the writer spread pre-questionnaire to 30 respondents to validity and reliability test. Afterwards, the writer gave the questionnaires to 100 respondents as BlackBerry users in employees’ limitation. The result is that there is satisfaction towards information, private identity, integration, and social interaction, and also towards entertainment after using BlackBerry.

Full textAbstract:
This article documents the earthquake ground motion database developed for the NGA-East Project, initiated as part of the Next Generation Attenuation (NGA) research program and led by the Pacific Earthquake Engineering Research Center (PEER). The project was focused on developing a ground motion characterization model (GMC) model for horizontal ground motions for the large region referred to as Central and Eastern North America (CENA). The CENA region covers most of the U.S. and Canada, from the Rocky Mountains to the Atlantic Ocean and is characterized tectonically as a stable continental region (SCR). The ground-motion database includes the two- and three-component ground-motion recordings from numerous selected events relevant to CENA ( M > 2.5, with distances up to 3500 km) that have been recorded since 1976. The final database contains over 27,000 time series from 82 earthquakes and 1271 recording stations. The ground motion database includes uniformly processed time series, 5% damped pseudo-spectral acceleration (PSA) median-component ordinates for 429 periods ranging from 0.01 to 10 s, duration and Arias intensity in 5% increments, and Fourier amplitude spectra for different time windows. Ground motions and metadata for source, path, and site conditions were subjected to quality checks by topical working groups and the ground-motion model (GMM) developers. The NGA-East database constitutes the largest database of processed recorded ground motions in SRCs and is publicly available from the PEER ground-motion database website.

Full textAbstract:
<p>This study shows the first results of a research aimed at catching the potentiality of a series of low cost, free and open source tools (such as ARC3D, 123D Catch, Hypr3D). These tools are founded on the SfM (Structure from Motion) techniques and they are able to realize automatically image-based models starting from simple sequences of pictures data sets. Initially born as simple touristic 3D visualization (e.g. Photosynth) of archaeological and/or architectural sites or cultural assets (e.g. statues, fountains and so on), nowadays allow to reconstruct impressive photorealistic 3D models in short time and at very low costs. Therefore we have chosen different case studies with various levels of complexity (from the statues to the architectures) in order to start a first testing on the modeling potentiality of these tools.</p>

Full textAbstract:
The article deals with Russian prefixed verbs of motion in the reflection of the Turkish language. The topic is relevant due to the fact that in recent years the role of Russian language learning in Turkey is increasing because of the expansion of economic and cultural relations between the two countries. The aim of the study is to create a linguodidactic basis for developing methodological recommendations for teaching Russian prefixed verbs of motion to Turkish students. Different methods have been used to realize the goal. The article is based on the dissertations, textbooks and manuals on the Russian language for foreigners, scientific works comparing the Russian and Turkish languages. The study of verbs of motion in the practical course of the Russian language for Turkish students has a special place. Russian and Turkish language speakers perceive the world and their identity differently. The differences between the pictures of the world are reflected in culture and language, its vocabulary and grammatical categories. Thus, while there are universals in the verb systems of the Russian and Turkish languages, there are also significant differences in the idea of action, state, change, movement, denoted by verb units in the two languages. Russian prefixed verbs of motion do not have exact equivalents in Turkish and are translated by means of verbs with different root or translation transformations. The results of the comparative description of Russian prefixed verbs of motion and transferring their meanings in Turkish, and the identified differences served as the basis for developing methodological recommendations for teaching Russian prefixed verbs of motion to Turkish students, taking into account their native language. Basing on the research, a system of teaching prefixed verbs of motion to Turkish students, including methods of verb presentation and consolidation in oral and written speech, was developed. The prospects of this work are to create a nationally-oriented textbook on the topic Russian prefix verbs of motion.
