TL;DR: GEOMAGIA50.v3 as discussed by the authors provides access to published paleomagnetic, rock magnetic, and chronological data from a variety of materials that record Earth's magnetic field over the past 50 ka.
Abstract: GEOMAGIA50.v3 is a comprehensive online database providing access to published paleomagnetic, rock magnetic, and chronological data from a variety of materials that record Earth’s magnetic field over the past 50 ka. Since its original release in 2006, the structure and function of the database have been updated and a significant number of data have been added. Notable modifications are the following: (1) the inclusion of additional intensity, directional and metadata from archeological and volcanic materials and an improved documentation of radiocarbon dates; (2) a new data model to accommodate paleomagnetic, rock magnetic, and chronological data from lake and marine sediments; (3) a refinement of the geographic constraints in the archeomagnetic/volcanic query allowing selection of particular locations; (4) more flexible methodological and statistical constraints in the archeomagnetic/volcanic query; (5) the calculation of predictions of the Holocene geomagnetic field from a series of time varying global field models; (6) searchable reference lists; and (7) an updated web interface. This paper describes general modifications to the database and specific aspects of the archeomagnetic and volcanic database. The reader is referred to a companion publication for a description of the sediment database. The archeomagnetic and volcanic part of GEOMAGIA50.v3 currently contains 14,645 data (declination, inclination, and paleointensity) from 461 studies published between 1959 and 2014. We review the paleomagnetic methods used to obtain these data and discuss applications of the data within the database. The database continues to expand as legacy data are added and new studies published. The web-based interface can be found at http://geomagia.gfz-potsdam.de

TL;DR: This mini-review will summarize the advances that have led to a new understanding of the molecular basis of the circadian clock in mammals at the molecular level.
Abstract: The circadian clock is a self-sustaining oscillator that has a period of ∼24 h and controls many physiological and behavioral systems. This clock can synchronize itself to changing environmental conditions to optimize an organisms performance. The underlying circadian rhythms are generated by periodic activation of transcription by a set of clock genes. Besides their own regulation, clock genes can influence biochemical processes by modulating specific genes of biochemical pathways. Developments in the last few years using genetics and molecular biological tools have led to a new understanding of the molecular basis of the circadian clock in mammals. In this mini-review, I will summarize these advances that have led us to begin understanding the mammalian circadian clock at the molecular level.

TL;DR: The authors examined whether parental homework involvement mediates the relationship between family background and educational outcomes such as academic achievement and academic self-concept, finding that perceived parental homework interference and perceived homework-related conflict were negatively related to students' academic development, whereas perceived parental support and perceived parental competence to help with homework were positively related to academic outcomes.

TL;DR: Interfacial properties of native β-lactoglobulin monomers and their heat-induced fibers were investigated at pH 2, through surface tension measurements at water-air and water-oil interfaces and interfacial shear rheology at the water- oil interface, showing the formation of a highly elastic interface.
Abstract: Interfacial properties of native β-lactoglobulin monomers and their heat-induced fibers, of two different lengths, were investigated at pH 2, through surface tension measurements at water-air and water-oil interfaces and interfacial shear rheology at the water-oil interface. The applied heat treatment generates a mixed system of fibers with unconverted monomers and hydrolyzed peptides. The surface tension of this system at the water-air interface decreased more rapidly than the surface tension of native monomers, especially at short times (10(-3) to 10(2) s). This behavior was not observed when the unconverted monomers and peptides were removed by dialysis. At the water-oil interface, the adsorption kinetics was much faster than at the water-air interface, with a plateau interfacial pressure value reached after 1 h of adsorption. For all the systems, interfacial shear rheology showed the formation of a highly elastic interface, with solid-like behavior at 1-10(3) s time scales. The highest modulus was observed for the long fibers and the lowest for the native monomers. Creep-compliance curves in the linear regime could be reduced to a single master curve, showing similar spectra of relaxation times for all investigated systems. Upon large deformations, the interfaces formed with long fibers showed the most rigid and fragile behavior. This rigidity was even more pronounced in the presence of unconverted monomers.

TL;DR: This review will focus on the intracellular targeting of Bcl-2 family members and the mechanisms by which they translocate to their sites of action and the posttranslational modifications which regulate these events.
