Il existe un débat sur les capacités réelles du Cameroun à assumer le rôle de pôle locomoteur de la sous-région Afrique centrale. Dans la sous-région, le Cameroun est donc au service des autres États et semble se satisfaire de cette situation, sans pour autant exclure l''aspiration à un rôle de leader sous-régional. Cette posture n''est pas sans conséquence : certaines structures ou institutions communautaires sous-régionales peinent à fonctionner de façon optimale du fait notamment de ce manque de leadership efficace du Cameroun. Le pays ne devrait-il pas endosser ce rôle, voire pleinement l''assumer au regard de ses multiples potentialités ?

Eric Wilson reveals a neglected yet powerful current in several major Romantic figures: the affirmation of--not escape from--turbulence. Romantic Turbulence unearths the chaotic undercurrents of European Romanticism found in Goethe’s science and Schelling’s philosophy, and demonstrates how these tendencies agitate the texts of Emerson, Fuller, Melville, Thoreau, and Whitman. These writers see the universe not as a reflection of transcendent harmony or a system of predictable laws but rather as a convergence of chaos and order, a polarized field. Detailing this undulatory cosmos, Wilson shows how these American Romantics participate in its unsettling rhythms by practicing an ecological poetics, translating the energies of their habitat into living compositions.

TRAPPIST-1 is a planetary system, located 12 parsecs away from the Solar system (39 light years), near the ecliptic, within the constellation of Aquarius. Around a star which is 12 times less massive than the Sun and only slightly larger than Jupiter, there are at least seven planets in orbit. The initial discovery was made by TRAPPIST, the TRAnsiting Planets and PlanetesImals Small Telescope. Additional planets were subsequently identified using TRAPPIST and the Spitzer space telescope, the Very Large Telescope, UKIRT, the Liverpool Telescope and the William Herschel Telescope. All the planets in the TRAPPIST-1 system transit their star, meaning that they pass in front of it. The planets were discovered from the regular and repeated shadows that are cast during transit. Thanks to the transit signals we could measure the orbital periods of the planets and could calculate the sizes of the planets. The exact time at which the planets transit also provide us with a means to measure their masses, which leads to knowing their densities and therefore their bulk properties. The planets are consistent with a rocky composition. We found that the planets have sizes and masses comparable to the Earth and Venus. Because we know the distance of the planets to their star, and the temperature of the star, we can deduce that they receive an amount of light that is similar to many of the planets in the Solar system, from Mercury to beyond Mars. During transit, some of the starlight goes through the atmosphere of the planets, getting transformed by the chemical composition of the atmosphere and by its vertical structure. This means that we can remotely study the climates of terrestrial worlds beyond our Solar system! The TRAPPIST-1 worlds are the most optimal currently at our disposal. They are providing humanity with it first opportunities at discovering evidence of biology beyond the Solar system.

Many consumers struggle to afford the costs of essential medical services. To bring more focus to the impact of medical bills and collections on consumers, the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau (CFPB) is releasing reports and blogs over the next several months discussing the key financial hurdles the health care system presents to patients and their families. In this research brief, we discuss required financial assistance (also known as charity care), one of the main forms of assistance hospitals offer to low-income consumers to help cover the cost of medical treatment.1 In the following, we define required financial assistance, explain its sources of funding, who is eligible, and who its likely beneficiaries are. In forthcoming briefs, we intend to discuss the pitfalls of medical credit cards and installment payments in the medical payment space.
