¿Qué queda del como si no paulino? Presentismo, barroco y domesticidad posfranquista by Brice Chamouleau

“…The theological material involved here provides a subtext to the closure of time, while allowing us to appraise its quality differently: it may well be that the Spanish case only clearly manifests a procedure for the institution of the political relationship with time that is common to Western Europe; however, it stands out for its post-dictatorial context, in which the closure of time is based on a familiar narrative and the violence of one of the longest dictatorships in Western Europe.…”

True 2-D 5/3 wavelet transform and its application for CT image lossless compression by Nini XU, Mingming ZHANG, Jianming WANG

“…Wavelet transform is widely used in the field of digital image processing，and it usually processes image by separating the row and column，which can’t meet the human visual system（HVS）completely.To address this situation，a kind of true 2-D 5/3 wavelet transform was constructed，which was more consistent with HVS.Firstly，1-D 5/3 wavelet filter bank constructed the true 2-D Lazy wavelet filter bank by McClellan transform，and it was implemented by lifting scheme.Then，this lifting scheme was nested with the true 2-D Lazy wavelet filter bank to implement true 5/3 wavelet transform of image.To facilitate engineering applications，the transformation procedure was given.The experiments of true 5/3 wavelet transform used in CT image lossless compression，the experiment shows that，for 512×512 size CT image true 5/3 wavelet transform has better compression effect when compared with two dimensional separable 5/3 wavelet transform and can save 1 989.9 byte per piece on average.…”

Competition and Regulation in the EU Energy Market by Cristina Havriş

“…In electricity and gas markets of the EU Member States, apart from the persistence of high, non-transparent regulated prices, a number of shortcomings have been identified by the European Commission, such as a less than optimal network use for energy transmission, a lack of coordination and cooperation across borders by transmission system operators and national authorities, and a lack of transparent and simple procedures for dealing with consumers’ complaints. These are the main elements of the infringement proceedings that the European Commission decided to launch on 25 June 2009 against 25 Member States for non–compliance with certain Community provisions in the Second Internal Energy Market Package, which entered into force on 1 July 2007. …”
