This study will analyze a libertarian approach to post-Lehman emergency lending in accordance with Federal Reserve rescue authority,with a major focus on the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act of 2010. The analysis will attach its attention to the evolving political context in which the U.S. domestic political discourse has been influenced increasingly by libertarianism, involving the rise of populist movements such as the "TEA (Tax Enough Already)" Party. This paper will first begin with a standard account on libertarianism as a major current of American political philosophy, which is rather unfamiliar to Japanese students in the field. Second, the analytical focus will be placed on an overview on the unique features of the Federal Reserve Board system as central bank, followed by a libertarian understanding on where the system stands in the context of the U.S. political economy. Third, this work will highlight the Dodd-Frank Act that is intended to prevent the Federal Reserve Banks from repeating massive discretional emergency lending to major insolvent banks as found in the post-Lehman financial crisis management. Fourth, the paper will identify the Act's major existing pitfalls that could enable to repeat such discretionary lending, followed by a set of policy proposals aimed to remove those pitfalls. The study will be designed to facilitate understanding the ongoing debate on the post-Lehman financial reforms, emphasizing the central importance of libertarian perspectives that reveal the exploitative nature of the finance-centered U.S. socio-political regime as the basis of the U.S. global economic hegemony.

Zirconium diboride based ceramics, owing to their superior high temperature properties are potential materials for use as leading edge components in hypersonic space vehicles. However, the difficulty in sintering these ultra high temperature ceramics limit their applications to some extent. Sintering of such materials is usually accomplished by resorting to advanced sintering techniques such as Spark Plasma Sintering (SPS) accompanied by sinter aids to improve the sinterability. In this backdrop, the current work investigates the effect of Ti addition on the mechanical properties and sinterability of ZrB2–based ceramic composites. Tailored addition of Ti to ZrB2–18 wt. % SiC baseline composites not only improves the densification but also increases hardness and indentation toughness, when sintered using Multi Stage Spark Plasma Sintering technique. Microstructure and X-ray diffraction analysis reveals the presence of ultrafine grains of ZrB2 and SiC, which is found to be effective in obtaining a good hardness (up to 29 GPa) and reliable indentation toughness (up to 9 MPa·m1/2).

日本音楽研究に情報処理的手法を適用する方法と,その諸問題について尺八音楽を例に述べる.はじめに演奏研究の立場から,音楽様式固有の特徴を反映させることの重要性を古典本曲を例に指摘する.つぎに,現在開発中の日本音楽における計算機上での楽譜の表現形式を提案するとともに,その適用例として五線譜と尺八譜との記号レベルでの変換処理の方法と活用法を示し,有効性と拡張性を検証する.また,伝統的尺八譜の画像情報からの認識技術について,津山流楽譜を例に楽譜の特徴量抽出の方法論と現在構築中のシステムの概要を紹介し,その諸問題を検討する.As the example of the information processing of traditional Japanese music, the methodologies and problems of shakuhachi (wind instrument made of bamboo) music processing are described. At first, from the view of performing shakuhachi, it is pointed out that it is important for music processing to represent unique features contained in individual music style, especially for classical shakuhachi honkyoku (main or original piece). Next, music representation language for traditional Japanese music notation is introduced. It is able to translate between western standard notation and Japanese notation by applying this language. Its effectiveness and expansibility are also described. Finally, an experiment of shakuhachi score recognition is described. Its recognition methods and the system configuration are introduced, and the remaining problems are described.

In January 2017, counterfeits of the hepatitis C drug 'HARVONI® Combination Tablets' (HARVONI®) were found at a pharmacy chain through unlicensed suppliers in Japan. A total of five lots of counterfeit HARVONI® (samples 1-5) bottles were found, and the ingredients of the bottles were all in tablet form. Among them, two differently shaped tablets were present in two of the bottles (categorized as samples 2A, 2B, 4A, and 4B). We analyzed the total of seven samples by high-resolution LC-MS, GC-MS and NMR. In samples 2A, 3 and 4B, sofosbuvir, the active component of another hepatitis C drug, SOVARDI® Tablets 400 mg (SOVARDI®), was detected. In sample 4A, sofosbuvir and ledipasvir, the active components of HARVONI®, were found. A direct comparison of the four samples and genuine products showed that three samples (2A, 3, 4B) are apparently SOVARDI® and that sample 2A is HARVONI®. In samples 1 and 5, several vitamins but none of the active compounds usually found in HARVONI® (i.e., sofosbuvir and ledipasvir) were detected. Our additional investigation indicates that these two samples are likely to be a commercial vitamin supplement distributed in Japan. Sample 2B, looked entirely different from HARVONI® and contained several herbal constitutents (such as ephedrine and glycyrrhizin) that are used in Japanese Kampo formulations. A further analysis indicated that sample 2B is likely to be a Kampo extract tablet of Shoseiryuto which is distributed in Japan. Considering this case, it is important to be vigilant to prevent a recurrence of distribution of counterfeit drugs.

吃音は社交不安障害などの精神神経疾患や発達障害が併存しうることは指摘されているが,これらの併存疾患に関する本邦からの報告はいまだ少数である.そのため,本邦における吃音と併存疾患との関連を検討することを目的に,2012年と2013年に慶應義塾大学耳鼻咽喉科を受診し吃音と診断された39症例について,併存する精神神経疾患および発達障害の有無を調べ,性別,年齢,発吃年齢,吃音頻度との関連を後方視的に調査した.<br>併存する精神神経疾患として,気分障害(うつ,適応障害),強迫神経症,てんかん,頸性チックの合併を全体の15%に認めた.発達障害の併存は,疑い例や言語発達障害のみの症例を含め18%に見られた.発達障害の有無によって吃音頻度,性別,年齢に有意差は見られなかったが,発吃年齢は発達障害併存群で有意に高い結果だった.吃音は発達障害が併存することにより,発達障害を併存しない吃音とは異なった臨床経過を示す可能性が示唆された.
