Stirring up virtual punishment: a case of citizen journalism,authenticity and shaming

Film clips and still pictures captured by civilians are increasingly used as evidence to prove specific accounts of events. This kind of visual data are not without problems, however. The aim of this paper was to analyse how viewers perceived a citizen journalistic mobile phone film clip as naturalistic data, enabling processes of shaming and eventually a ‘justice’ process on the Internet, including virtual punishment of the person filmed by the citizen journalist. In the clip, a taxi driver records video of an agitated female customer whom he hinders from leaving the taxi. The film is then distributed on YouTube, where it attracts remarkable negative attention. However, the citizen journalist’s film clip is only one of several possible accounts of the filmed incident, as demonstrated by the police crime report about the incident as an alternative account showing that viewers cannot rely on the citizen journalistic film clip as objective, naturalistic data.     

与“智能犯罪”的较量

网络犯罪的特点是作案者的智能化、犯罪条件的现代化、犯罪手段的隐蔽化、犯罪地域的广大化;犯罪分子往往利用最前沿的网络技术进行网络犯罪,并且这种形式的犯罪现象呈上升趋势。“环球枪手集团”特大网上诈骗案的成功破获,给了我们很多有益的经验,同时也暴露了我们工作中存在的和需要改进的一些问题。     

正确认识宪法的实质功能

宪政是依法治国的核心,而实行宪政的前提和基础是宪法具有正当性。这就要正确认识宪法的实质功能,保证宪法是具有正当性的良宪。西方启蒙学者和法学家揭示了宪法的实质功能即授予国家权力和限制国家权力。我们必须抛弃对宪法功能的错误认识。只有对宪法的实质功能有一个正确的认识,才能谋求依法治国,建设社会主义法治国家。     

A novel method for sorting and reassociating commingled human remains using deviation analysis

This study provides an innovative and novel method for sorting commingled human remains at the sacroiliac joint using deviation analyses. Virtual models were created at the University of Tennessee-Knoxville Donated Skeletal Collection from 69 os coxae and 66 sacra using an EinScan-Pro 2× + Handheld Surface Scanner. The shape of the auricular surfaces was analyzed in Geomagic Wrap 2017, and the congruency of the two auricular surfaces was measured using a deviation analysis. ROC curves were performed on a reference sample composed of 200 commingled and non-commingled joint pairs to identify threshold values that could help sort the commingled remains. A validation sample of 225 pairs was subsequently analyzed to demonstrate the efficacy of this new method on a sample of unknown individuals. Statistical analyses demonstrated that the deviation analysis values from sacroiliac joints of commingled pairs were significantly larger than those from non-commingled individuals (p < 0.0001). Based on the selected threshold values, 98%–100% of pairs were correctly sorted and reassociated. This novel and objective technique improves upon previously subjective strategies for sorting commingled remains and, in the future, will be applied to additional joint surfaces.     

Form follows function: Applying photographic content analysis to forensic firearm identification

Drawing forensic conclusions from an image or a video is known as “photographic content analysis.” It involves the analysis of an image, as well as objects, actions, and events depicted in images or video. In recent years, photographic depictions of objects suspected as illegal firearms have substantially increased, appearing on CCTV surveillance footage, captured by mobile phones and shared on social media. However, the law in Israel states that a person can be charged with illegally possessing a firearm only if it can be proven that the object is capable of shooting with lethal bullet energy. This becomes more challenging in cases where the firearm was not physically seized, and the evidence exclusively consists of images and video. In this study, photographic content analysis was applied to images and video where objects suspected as commercial or improvised firearms had been depicted. An image and event sequence reconstruction video databases of both firearms and replicas were created in order to better define firearm-specific functional morphological features. We demonstrate that it is possible to classify an object as a firearm by analyzing the functional, and not only the esthetic, morphology in images and video. It is also shown that event sequence reconstruction in video may be used to infer that an object suspected as a firearm has the capacity to shoot by confirming the occurrence of a shooting act or shooting process. Thus, photographic content analysis may be used to forensically establish that an object depicted in an image or a video is a firearm by ruling out other known scenarios, and without physically seizing it.     

论第三条道路思潮向西方青年的传播

西方第三条道路思潮作为一种政治思潮,主要是以青年政策为中介向青年传播的。这主要体现在提出与现时代社会青年相适应的政治行动思路;倡导与青年“新个人主义”相应的积极责任观;充分利用现代科技手段唤起青年的政治热情;配套实施相关的就业、教育、经济和社会政策促进青年发展等方面。第三条道路向西方青年传播对我们的启示在于;需要重视并创新性地去巩固党执政的青年基础;需要有效地向当代中国青年传播马克思主义。     

虚拟企业的发展现状与对策

虚拟企业是用信息技术把各种资源、能力和思想动态地连接起来,成为一种有机的企业网络组织。虚拟企业是一种超越常规的企业间合作,它与普通的合作相比,在对经济、管理及竞争环境变化的适应能力上有着明显的优势,但同时又有着无法避免的问题。当前,应力求改善虚拟企业的运行环境。     

现实人与虚拟人的对话—网络时代教育主体的交往方式

网络时代的现实人和虚拟人是有其特殊内涵的,建立在对话基础上的交往关系是他们相互生成的根本,现实人与虚拟人的对话关系与现实世界中主体与主体之间的对话关系有着本质差异,它可以超越一定的时空限制,将客观世界、社会世界和主观世界有机地结合起来,并弥合现实和虚拟的界限,现实人与虚拟人的对话主要是通过对网上本的选择和解读而发生的,这种对话有利于促进网络教育主体的人格平等与共进,进而达到教育主体的生成与发展。

Integration period of e-learning in universities： A survey in Turkey

E-learning is an important subject for successful university education. It is known that during the integration period of e-learning, universities face difficulties and trade-offs that will discourage their adoption. This study concentrates on e-learning with benefits and problems faced throughout the integration period by stakeholders and finally the university as a new education program method. The study aims to look at the factors which affect the integration period of e-learning programs and measure the drivers that affect the adoption process The research method is based on quantitative analysis which generally searches information about the factors＇ effectiveness related to the integration level of e-learning. During the empirical analysis, factors are categorized and measured according to their effectiveness, and then questionnaire study has examined the factors＇ effectiveness related to the adoption success of e-learning by using statistical analysis methods. The information about the factors that is effective for e-learning integration provides considerable educational framework for universities, instructors, students and also for information technology experts and other decision makers that manage the electronic environment for e-learning.
