In einem Gespräch mit Ayreen Anastas und Rene Gabri, Agenten der dOCUMENTA (13), gibt der in New York lebende Videokünstler Paul Ryan Auskunft über die theoretischen wie biografischen Hintergründe seiner Arbeit, über seine prägende Tätigkeit für Marshall McLuhan sowie über seine Rolle innerhalb der Videogruppe Raindance und der von ihr herausgegebenen Zeitschrift Radical Software. Die verschiedenen Einflüsse weckten in ihm den Wunsch, seine künstlerische Tätigkeit mit einer revolutionären sozialen Praxis zu verbinden, innerhalb derer das Konzept des »Threeing« eine zentrale Stellung einnimmt. Dabei handelt es sich um eine »freiwillige Beziehungs-Praxis beziehungsweise -Übung, bei der drei Personen abwechselnd drei verschiedene Rollen übernehmen«, die auf den von Charles Sanders Peirce eingeführten phänomenologischen Kategorien der Erstheit, Zweitheit und Drittheit beruht. Das Gespräch wird ergänzt von einem ausführlichen Anhang mit illustrierten Texten zum »Threeing« sowie dem ebenfalls von Ryan entwickelten Beziehungskreislauf. Sprache: Deutsch/Englisch

DUE LEGGENDE, UN VELOCISTA! Un costume senziente che consuma la forza vitale di chi lo indossa, una corsa galattica con la distruzione del proprio pianeta come punizione per il perdente, un’arma che costringe a vivere la propria vita al contrario e un misterioso Flash Nero che è sempre stato presente alla morte dei velocisti. Sono solo alcune delle folli idee alla base delle storie di Flash partorite dalla coppia di scrittori composta da Grant Morrison (JLA, Batman, Multiversity) e Mark Millar (The Authority) nel loro anno di “supplenza” a Mark Waid! Per la prima volta in un volume unico tutte le storie di Wally West scritte dai due autori scozzesi, compreso il team up con Freccia Verde e Lanterna Verde, e illustrate da Paul Ryan (Superman: The Man of Tomorrow), Ron Wagner (Batman: Legends of the Dark Knight) e Pop Mhan (Batgirl).

A story of and Irish immigrant family traveling from Ireland to Queensland on the Erin go Bragh, a voyage that took six months with 54 people, mainly children dying.

The Irish mix wit and wisdom the way they do whiskey and water, and to the same intoxicating effect. Irish wit is an art form that can be sage, silly, insulting, or profound, but it's always entertaining. The Wee Book of Irish Wit & Malarkey is a pint-sized draft of potent mirth and malarkey from Oscar Wilde, Jonathan Swift, Brendan Behan, and many other wags, including 'yer man' - your everyday son of the sod - on everything from love and marriage to death and dying and everything in between.

This timely and accessible text shows how portrayals of science in popular media--including television, movies, and social media--influence public attitudes around messages from the scientific community, affect the kinds of research that receive support, and inform perceptions of who can become a scientist. The book builds on theories of cultivation, priming, framing, and media models while drawing on years of content analyses, national surveys, and experiments. A wide variety of media genres--from Hollywood blockbusters and prime-time television shows to cable news channels and satirical comedy programs, science documentaries and children's cartoons to Facebook posts and YouTube videos--are explored with rigorous social science research and an engaging, accessible style. Case studies on climate change, vaccines, genetically modified foods, evolution, space exploration, and forensic DNA testing are presented alongside reflections on media stereotypes and disparities in terms of gender, race, and other social identities. Science in the Media illuminates how scientists and media producers can bridge gaps between the scientific community and the public, foster engagement with science, and promote an inclusive vision of science, while also highlighting how readers themselves can become more active and critical consumers of media messages about science. Science in the Media serves as a supplemental text for courses in science communication and media studies, and will be of interest to anyone concerned with publicly engaged science.

The Bald Mountain Mining district, like much of central Nevada, has experienced a complex deformation history. The mining district is considered here as a southern extension of the well-studied Carlin trend of gold deposits to the north. In order to gain a better understanding of how the Bald Mountain Mining District structural style relates to other structural models developed to the north in the Carlin trend, I completed a mapping and structural domain analysis in the district, with a focus on the North Mooney basin area where a high spatial concentration of Carlin-type gold deposits occur. The identification of structural domain boundaries and classes utilized a compiled database of historical mapping and structural measurements along with new mapping and cross section work. The domain analysis revealed four different classes of structural domains, of which monoclinal folds were determined to play the strongest role in gold mineralization. Using the structural domain designations in addition to an analysis of the geometry of commonly occurring structures, I identified five structural styles at Bald Mountain: 1) kilometerscale NNE- to NE-striking reverse faults and NNE- to NE-trending open to overturned folds; 2) kilometer-scale WNW- to NW-striking normal faults with oblique separation; 3) decameter- to kilometer-scale NNW-trending open folds, NNW-striking reverse faults, and N-striking thrusts; 4) meter- to decameter-scale NW-trending tight to close folds; 5) meter- to kilometer-scale N- to NE-striking normal faults. Evidence for structural reactivation and observations of the crosscutting relationships between the five structural styles inform a relative sequence of deformational events at Bald Mountain. These five structural styles were then considered with respect to regional tectonic events and their kinematic and timing relationships in order to assign deformational phases: 1) NNE- to NE-striking reverse faults and NNE- to NE-trending open to overturned folds associated with episodic ESE- to SE-directed shortening through the Paleozoic to early Mesozoic; 2) WNW- to NW-striking strike-slip and tear faulting in the Late Jurassic to Cretaceous; 3) NNW-trending open folds, NNW-striking reverse faults, and N-striking thrusts with ENE-directed shortening through the Late Cretaceous to Eocene; 4) NW-trending tight to close folds with sinistral tranpression on WNW- to NW-striking faults during a mid-Eocene event associated with exhumation of the Ruby Mountain core complex; 5) N- to NE-striking normal faulting with NWSE directed Basin and Range extension from the Miocene. The five structural styles were then compared to previous work including structural models developed in north-central Nevada. Deformation events are similar between the northern Carlin trend and Bald Mountain. Primary differences between the Bald Mountain structural history and the structural models in the northern Carlin trend include the documented Eocene folding event, and a major WNW-striking basement-seated feature with parallel structures that have a significant strike-slip component and partition Bald Mountain into discrete kilometer scale structural domains. Further work to add value to targeting and exploration should place an emphasis on identifying major WNW- to NW-striking faults and understanding their kinematics. Knowledge of these structural boundaries along with how structural styles change across them will help to constrain targeting and lend insight to the significant role that strike-slip faulting played in the Bald Mountain Mining District's complex deformational history.

There has been a steady decline in angling participation numbers in the United States during the past two decades (MN DNR, 2011). A main contributing factor is the decreased participation by youth, and adults between the age of 20 and 40. These young adults represent a large portion of the parent population of today's youth, and the simultaneous decrease in participation between young adults and youth may indicate that today's youth do not have adults taking them fishing (MN DNR, 2011). This is of concern because of the parallel decline in people committed to conservation of natural resources. State agencies have begun to implement mentoring education programs to address this decline in participation amongst youth, but have not yet sought to identify what experts in the field of angling education believe are important components of a mentoring program (MN DNR, 2008).
