A great friggin' swindle? Sex Pistols, school kids and 1979 [PDF]

open access: yes
This article examines the popularity of the Sex Pistols’ song “Friggin’ in the Riggin’” and its parent album The Great Rock ‘n’ Roll Swindle. It argues that in 1979 the Sex Pistols attracted a new and younger audience, one that has been neglected in ...

Monte Carlo for Robust Regression: The Swindle Unmasked [PDF]

open access: yes
This paper gives an alternative derivation of a Monte Carlo method that has been used to study robust estimators. Extensions of the technique to the regression case are also considered and some computational points are briefly mentioned.

Nanoimprinted DMD Electrodes Enabling Bidirectional Viewing OLEDs With Quasi Lambertian Emission

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
We present a dual‐approach strategy for high‐performance bidirectional‐viewing OLEDs, combining enhanced cavity resonance with a nanoimprinted dielectric/metal/dielectric (DMD) electrode. This bidirectional viewing OLED presents an 89.7% enhanced electrode transmittance, a balanced bidirectional emission ratio with 67.3% total brightness increase, as ...

Engineering New‐to‐Nature Biological Pathways for β,γ‐Alkanediol Synthesis

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
β,γ‐Alkanediols are value‐added chemicals to be used as functional solvents, biofuels, and cosmetic components. This work demonstrates a carboligation‐mediated approach for synthesis of linear chain β,γ‐alkanediols in Escherichia coli, namely, hexane‐2,3‐diol (2,3‐HDO) and pentane‐2,3‐diol (2,3‐PDO). The engineered E. coli cells produce 152.2 mm (17.98

miR‐135a‐5p Is a Promising Target to Prevent the Glomerulosclerosis Associated with Podocyte Developmental Toxicity in Offspring Induced by Prenatal Dexamethasone Exposure

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Prenatal dexamethasone exposure (PDE) programs persistent podocyte developmental injury and adult glomerulosclerosis. Mechanistically, glucocorticoid receptor (GR) binds the miR‐135a‐5p promoter and recruits the histone acetyltransferase p300, increasing promoter histone acetylation and sustaining miR‐135a‐5p expression. Elevated miR‐135a‐5p suppresses

Effect of lipopolysaccharide (LPS) and peptidoglycan (PGN) on human mast cell numbers, cytokine production, and protease composition

open access: yesBMC Immunology, 2008
Background Human mast cell (HuMC) maturation occurs in tissues interfacing with the external environment, exposing both mast cell progenitors and mature mast cells, to bacteria and their products.

Noble gases as tracers of the origin and evolution of the Martian atmosphere and the degassing history of the planet [PDF]

open access: yes
Noble gas analysis of Martian samples can provide answers to a number of crucial questions. Some of the most obvious benefits will be in Martian chronology, using techniques that have been applied to lunar samples. However, these are by no means the only
