In the framework of the topcolor-assisted technicolor (TC2) model, we study the neutral top-Higgs [Formula: see text] production processes [Formula: see text], [Formula: see text] and [Formula: see text]. The results show that the production rates can reach the level of a few fb with reasonable parameter values. With the clean background of the flavor-changing [Formula: see text] channel, the top-Higgs events can possibly be detected at the International Linear Collider (ILC) experiments. Therefore, such neutral top-Higgs production processes offer a useful way to probe for neutral top-Higgs and test the TC2 model directly.

Argumentation is generally conceived of as a dialogic activity between two or more participants. Nonetheless, it operates also at an intrapersonal level (Rocci 2005), in a soliloquy where protagonist and antagonist of the critical discussion are embodied in the same person. We argue this case by analyzing journalists’ argumentation about linguistic choices in newswriting processes. Empirically, we draw on data generated with progression analysis (Perrin 2003), in particular with cue-based retrospective verbal protocols. The data was produced by the journalists under investigation when they, while watching video recordings of their text production processes, reconstructed and verbalized their decisions (Perrin 2011: 60). In the detail analysis, we focus on one editorial by an experienced journalist of Corriere del Ticino, the main Italian-language newspaper in Switzerland.

In the context of the topcolor-assisted technicolor (TC2) model, we study the productions of the charged top-pion associated with single top, charm or bottom quark in γp collision, which proceed via the subprocesses [Formula: see text], [Formula: see text] and [Formula: see text]. With the electron energy Ee = 50 GeV and photon energy Ep = 7 TeV , we find that the production rates can reach the level of several tens fb for [Formula: see text] production, and hundreds of fb for [Formula: see text] (or [Formula: see text]) productions. So one can expect that enough signals could be produced in the large part of the parameter space. Furthermore, these flavor-changing (FC) productions are extremely suppressed in the standard model (SM). With a large number of events and the clean background, the charged top-pion should be observable at the Large Hadron electron Collider (LHeC) based γp colliders. Thus, such charged top-pion production processes may offer a useful way to test the TC2 model.

My response to Fey’s article (1985; reprinted 1992, this issue) focuses on the confusion caused by the application of simplistic phonological definitions and models to the assessment and treatment of children with speech delays. In addition to having no explanatory adequacy, such definitions/models lead either to assessment and treatment procedures that are similarly focused or to procedures that have no clear logical ties to the models with which they supposedly are linked. Narrowly focused models and definitions also usually include no mention of speech production processes. Bemoaning this state of affairs, I attempt to show why it is important for clinicians to embrace broad-based models of phonological disorders that have some explanatory value. Such models are consistent with assessment procedures that are comprehensive in nature and treatment procedures that focus on linguistic, as well as motoric, aspects of speech.

Current supply chain methods are having difficulties in resolving problems arising from the lack of trust in supply chains. The root reason lies in two challenges brought to the traditional mechanism: self-interests of supply chain members and information asymmetry in production processes. Blockchain is a promising technology to address these problems. The key objective of this paper is to present qualitative analysis for blockchain in supply chain as the decision-making framework to implement this new technology. The analysis method used Val IT business case framework, validated by the expert judgements. The further study needs to be elaborated by either the existing organization that use blockchain or assessment by the organization that will use blockchain to improve their supply chain management.

Regional research ethics committee (REC) members have voiced a need for the linguistic improvement of informed consent documents to ensure duly informed consent and to ease committee deliberation. We have little knowledge of what elements of language use hamper comprehension, or of the extent of medical researchers’ appreciation of this problem and their willingness to accept intervention. This qualitative, explorative study proposes an intervention design and tests its feasibility and acceptability. Semi-structured interviews with potential REC applicants informed a linguistic intervention benchmarked against existing guidelines, mandated locally and nationally, and then evaluated quantitatively in a semi-controlled set-up and qualitatively via questionnaires. Potential applicants professed the psychological acceptability of linguistic intervention. The intervention comprised a downloadable Microsoft Word template outlining information structure, a detailed guideline offering advice for each move and self-selected linguistic screening. It was used by 14 applicants and had a measurable effect on REC deliberation time and approval rates. The intervention instruments overall made it easier for applicants to produce informed consent documents meeting prescribed ethical standards concerning lay-friendliness. In conclusion, it was found that linguistic intervention is relevant, feasible and psychologically acceptable to REC applicants; it aids their text production process and seems to enhance the lay-friendliness of these texts.
