Double-nail illusion | Short description | thumb|Basic double-nail illusion: the two pins A en B appear at positions C en D.
The double-nail illusion is a multi-modal illusion in which two similar physical objects that are located the one behind the other in depth, do not appear to be behind each other but next to each other. This phenomenon occurs within the area for binocular depth perception when the eyes converge and accommodate at a point in between the nearer and farther objects. The illusion is associated with binocular ghost images and has several variants . A simulation with a stereogram is not exactly the same illusion.
The illusion is very sensitive to disturbances and is best invoked with a viewing setup that is precisely aligned and where the position of the head is stabilized, for example with a nose support.
The illusion was first described by Krol and Van de Grind in 1978. |
Double-nail illusion | Multi-modal illusion | Multi-modal illusion
The double-nail illusion is an illusion where observations through the eyes and touch conflict with each other and with physical reality. By looking from a different position, the observer can know what the 'true' situation is based on visual information. By feeling with a finger, the observer can know that the physical objects are indeed present while the perceived objects (illusions) are not. If the observer changes the orientation of the two pins relative to each other just a little bit, then a movement in depth is perceived that does not correspond with the movement performed, see variations. The physical objects in the double-nail illusion also have subtle monocular depth cues due to their physical distance difference that could reveal the true nature of the perceived images. Despite all this, the illusions are (still) seen. Krol and van de Grind describe that trying to feel the false images, and seeing a different movement than what is being performed, gives a separate sensation of 'something is not right'. |

thumb|Neuro-model double-nail illusion. C' and D' signal ghost images.
The lower part of the figure contains a simplified representation of the neuro-model that Krol and van de Grind use to explain the illusion. This model is based on the existence of nerve cells with input from both eyes, found in the visual cortex, that are tuned to a particular binocular disparity."Neurophysiology of binocular single vision and stereopsis." P.O. Bishop (1973), In: Handbook of sensory physiology, vol. VII/3A: Central processing of visual information. A: Integrative functions and comparative data.
In the situation of the double-nail illusion, 4 binocular cells A', B', C' and D' are stimulated, which signal the location and depth of A, B, C and D. If there would be no interaction between the cells, the model predicts that four objects should be perceived.
To explain the observation in the double-nail illusion, Krol and van de Grind assume that the binocular cells, when activated, influence each other as follows:
cells tuned to the same depth (disparity) amplify each other's activity (+);
cells tuned to different depths (disparities) attenuate each other's activity (-).
The result is that C' and D' become extra activated and ghost images are seen, and A' and B' suppress each other's activity and become silent, with the result that the physically present objects A and B are not perceived. This mechanism could also explain the perceived depth in the random dot stereograms of Bela Julesz.
The above explanation applies to the situation where the front and rear stimuli are both within the area for binocular depth perception ( stereopsis ). If A and B are further apart and fall outside this area, then according to the model, A and B are not seen because there are no binocular cells that are stimulated. In other words, there can and need not be any interaction between binocular neurones to explain the perception, as in the Wheatstone stereogram below . |
Double-nail illusion | Simulation with a stereogram | Simulation with a stereogram
thumb|Wheatstone stereogramSome researchers use a Wheatstone stereogram to evoke the double-nail illusion, see the figure. This stereogram consists of two images, one for each eye, with two parallel lines. In the classical figure of the Wheatstone stereogram, only the positions of the ghost images are illustrated (X and F correspond to C and D of the double-nail illusion). The projections of A and B are not drawn, they lie far outside the area for depth perception. Krol and van de Grind indicate that there is only a simulation of the (physical) double-nail illusion if care is taken that the two lines are so close together that (also) the projections of A and B fall within the area for depth perception.
Krol and van de Grind further indicate that a stereogram differs from that of the physical double-nail illusion also in that case, because a stereogram does not reveal the multi-model illusion. In the double-nail illusion two types of objects can be distinguished:
there is a physical object that can be touched but not perceived;
an object is observed at a position where it cannot be touched.
In stereograms, there are only physical objects in the form of the stereogram itself. There are no cues in the perceived image that indicate which objects are there or not. All perceived images are of type-2. In the double-nail illusion, there are both type-1 and type-2 images. The observer can know which images are real by tactile perception, but this information is not used in visual perception. |
Double-nail illusion | Alternative explanations | Alternative explanations
Measurements of the depth position of the observed images in the different variants confirm that the observed images could be binocular ghost images. Ono published an alternative explanation in 1984. This alternative explanation has been refuted by Krol and van de Grind. Results of Krol and van de Grind (1986) suggest that Foley's alternative explanation based on "depth mixing" is unlikely too. Nakazimo and Kondo (1988) have investigated the similarity with the "wallpaper phenomenon".S. Nakamizo M. Kondo (1988), “The double-nail illusion revisited: commonality with the wallpaper phenomenon.” , Shinrigaku Kenkyu Japanese Journal of Psychology 59(2): 91-98. Nakazimo Simono en Nakazimo (1889)S. Nakamizo, K. Shimono M. Kondo (1989), “The double nail illusion in panums limiting case”, IOVS Investigative Ophthalmology and Visual Science 30(3): 253 have investigated the double-nail illusion in Panum's limiting case and arrive at similar results as reported by Krol (1982). |
Double-nail illusion | Variants | Variants
The hypothesis that binocular gost images are seen in the basic double-nail illusion leads to the prediction of different appearances when the fixation point and the distance, shape or orientation of the two "spikes" are varied. These variations have been demonstrated and measurements show that the positions and behavior of the perceived images correspond to the predicted images :
Eye position : The place where the eyes converge determines whether or not the illusion occurs.
Distance : Smaller distances between the front and rear objects enhance the effect.
Rotation: As the front and rear objects move out of the mid-sagittal plane , the observed images move apart.
Tilt: If the front and rear objects tilt relative to each other in the left-right direction, then the perceived objects tilt in the depth direction.
Floating : If the rear object is twice as long as the front one, then the upper part appears to float above and behind the apparent images of the basic illusion, at position B. If the front object has a ball on it, then it appears to float at position A.
Swinging doors: if the front and rear objects have a different thickness, two rotated planes are seen. |

“I, Dorjderem, was born as the eldest son of Mr. Davaa, a powerlifter. While I can hardly recall much of my early childhood, one vivid memory stands out: when I was around 5 or 6 years old, I created a large horse using every scrap of clay I could find. It felt like my first attempt at self-expression. From that moment, I felt destined to become a painter, sculptor, or artist.”
Dorjderem.D is a contemporary multidisciplinary artist living and working in Ulaanbaatar, Mongolia. Since 2005, his artwork has continually explored themes of birth, death, and human existence. A pivotal inspiration came in 2001 when he stumbled upon multiple wild sheep horns at the National Nature Museum of Mongolia. The collection had been left behind by a deceased naturalist and was about to be discarded. He preserved the materials, which later became part of his first significant piece, Voice in the Space.
His unique practice is combines a wide range of materials, including goat skin, wild sheep and goat horns, wool, felt, acrylic, oil, and printmaking techniques. He holds a BA in Fine Arts from the School of Mongolian Arts and Culture and trained as an artificer at R. Gandhi Polytechnic College of Production and Art.
Dorjderem.D is a member of Blue Sun, the CACM, and the Union of Mongolian Artists. His work has been exhibited in prestigious biennials and exhibitions across Mongolia, Korea, Japan, Germany, China, Singapore, France and Italy.
Dorjderem.D has received both international and domestic recognition for his contributions to the arts: International Achievements such as People’s Choice Award at the APB Foundation Signature Art Prize, Singapore, Artwork included in the collection of the Fukuoka Asian Art Museum, Japan, and domestic achievements such as Artwork selected for the collection of the National Modern Art Gallery, Ulaanbaatar, Grant from the Arts Council of Mongolia for his solo exhibition Non-Existence and Named Best Art of the Year by the Mongolian Modern Art Gallery, Mongolia
Dorjderem.D has held solo exhibitions at prominent venues, including Xanadu Art Gallery, Red Ger Art Gallery, the Union of Mongolian Artists’ Art Gallery, and Blue Sun Art Gallery.

Amphissa bicolor | Short description | Amphissa bicolor is a species of sea snail, a marine gastropod mollusc in the family Columbellidae, the dove snails. |
Amphissa bicolor | Description | Description
The length of the shell attains 14 mm its diameter 8 mm.
(Original description) The shell is small and solid, appearing pale with brown bands and possessing six convex whorls. The protoconch is eroded in the specimens, and the suture is distinct and not appressed. The whorls are full, with 11 to 13 narrow, rounded ribs extending nearly from suture to suture. The spiral sculpture consists of numerous flattened, strap-like cinguli separated by subequal, channeled, shallow interspaces. The epidermis is thin and yellowish. The color of the shell is pale straw with a brownish base and a brown band extending from the periphery halfway back to the suture. The aperture is about equal to the spire, with the penultimate rib behind it a little swollen. The columella is slender, polished white with little callus; the siphonal canal is wide, short, and recurved. The outer lip is simple, slightly reflected, and not lirate inside.
The operculum is brownish and resembles that of Amphissa versicolor Dall, 1871. The brown coloration, though generally disposed in bands as described, is variable; it occasionally appears in a zigzag pattern on the pale ground, or is generally suffused over the surface, or even maculated, as in Nitidella. The apex, when perfect, is probably moderately acute, but is more or less eroded on all specimens. |

1959 Oklahoma vs. Nebraska football game | use mdy dates | The 1959 Oklahoma vs. Nebraska football game was the thirty-ninth edition of the Nebraska–Oklahoma football rivalry, held on October 31, 1959 at Memorial Stadium in Lincoln, Nebraska. Nebraska's 25–21 victory ended Oklahoma's NCAA-record seventy-four-game conference win streak and gave head coach Bud Wilkinson the first MVIAA defeat of his thirteen-year tenure. It was NU's first victory over OU since 1942 and is considered one of the biggest upset victories in program history. |
1959 Oklahoma vs. Nebraska football game | Background | Background
Head coach Bud Wilkinson established Oklahoma as college football's premier program through the 1950s, winning the MVIAA in each of his twelve seasons in addition to national championships in 1950, 1955, and 1956. He entered 1959 without a single conference defeat in his head coaching career, a streak that reached seventy-four by time OU traveled to Lincoln on Halloween. Though the streak was intact, there were signs the Sooners were not as dominant as past years – they lost twice out-of-conference and briefly fell out of the AP poll for the first time in nearly a decade.
Nebraska hired twenty-nine-year-old Wilkinson assistant Pete Elliott as its head coach in 1956; when he left after a single season, the school promoted backfield coach Bill Jennings, an OU alumnus who had served under Wilkinson for seven years. Elliott and Jennings brought Wilkinson's split-T formation to Lincoln with minimal success – Nebraska won just eight games from 1956 to 1958 and suffered three lopsided defeats to Oklahoma. Prior to their 1959 meeting, Nebraska players hung locker room that said "let's not make it 75." |
1959 Oklahoma vs. Nebraska football game | Game | Game
A sparse crowd traveled to Memorial Stadium on a damp and cool Halloween afternoon in Lincoln. Oklahoma received the opening kickoff and emphatically marched seventy-two yards for an opening touchdown after a fumble was nullified by a Nebraska offside penalty. OU featured an unbalanced line throughout the first half, a departure from Wilkinson's standard split-T which used three linemen on either side of the center. Nebraska wasted several scoring opportunities in the first half but finally broke through early in the second quarter with a fourth-down touchdown pass from Harry Tolly to Dick McDaniel – NU's failed two-point attempt was "met with a standing ovation" by the home crowd. Minutes later, a botched quick kick by Sooner quarterback Bob Cornell was recovered by the Nebraska defense and returned into the end zone. Oklahoma embarked on another lengthy touchdown drive to take a 14–12 halftime lead. The stadium filled as word spread of the game's competitive nature; quarterback Harry Tolly called the crowd of 32,765 the largest he had seen at the 48,000-seat stadium.
The only scoring in the third quarter was a Ron Meade field goal to put NU ahead 15–14. The teams exchanged quick kicks throughout the second half (Jennings recalled, "I figured the only thing we had better than OU was a punter, so we played field position all day"), one of which pinned the Sooners near their own goal line. Wahoo McDaniel's ensuing punt was returned by Pat Fischer inside the five-yard line, and Nebraska scored three plays later. Oklahoma fumbled the ball away on its following drive, and a personal foul penalty put NU in field goal range. Meade substituted for Tolly to attempt a field goal into the wind to give Nebraska a 25–14 lead – the kick was good, but the restrictive substitution rules of the day meant the Cornhuskers would be without Tolly, their starting quarterback and top defensive player, for the remainder of the game. Oklahoma marched sixty-seven yards on its ensuing drive, capped by Prentice Gautt's second short touchdown rush. After a short Nebraska possession, OU suddenly found itself inside NU's thirty-yard line with a chance to win, but a deep pass into the end zone was intercepted by Meade.
Nebraska students ran onto the field as the final seconds ticked off the clock, tearing down the goalposts for the first time in Memorial Stadium history. Oklahoma dominated most facets of the game, finishing with over twice as many total yards as the Cornhuskers, but special teams mishaps and three lost fumbles were too much to overcome for a Sooner offense that lacked the firepower typical of Wilkinson's teams. |

1959 Oklahoma vs. Nebraska football game | Aftermath | Aftermath
Oklahoma won its remaining four games to retain the outright MVIAA championship for a twelfth consecutive season, though its national dominance under Wilkinson faded in the following years. Oklahoma's conference win streak remains an FBS record.
The game is considered one of the biggest upset victories in Nebraska's football history. NU finished 4–6, its fourth of what would become six consecutive losing seasons, and aside from another upset over fourth-ranked Texas to open the 1960 season, the program struggled until Jennings was fired in 1961. Jennings, a former Sooner player and assistant coach, became ostracized in Norman for his role in a "slush fund" scandal that ended in NCAA sanctions, despite being officially exonerated. Police surrounded him during Nebraska's 1960 victory at Oklahoma because of pregame threats by fans. Jennings came to resent his alma mater and former boss, stating decades later: "Bud refused to take the blame for anything. It all came down on me, and my family paid a heavy price for it. I was run out of my hometown, and that still hurts."
Nebraska's upset of Oklahoma unofficially signified the beginning of one of college football's great rivalries. Prior to 1959, both teams maintained stretches of dominance – OU won just three of twenty-two games in the series prior to its lengthy win streak – with little national fanfare. From 1959 until Nebraska's departure for the Big Ten Conference in 2010, the Sooners led the series 26–22. |

Wrong End of the Race | Production | Production
Recorded in New York and London, the album was produced by Will Birch and John Wood. "Baby, Now That I've Found You", released as a single, is a cover of the song made famous by the Foundations. "Learning the Game" was written by Buddy Holly. The rest of the songs were written by bandmembers Clive Gregson and Nick Simpson. "Open Fire", "Playing Bogart", "Turning Up the Heat", and "Yesterday's Love" are remakes of older Any Trouble songs. Gregson was influenced primarily by Richard Thompson, who sang and played guitar on "Lucky Day", "Open Fire", and "Baby, Now That I've Found You". Any Trouble used a horn section and strings on some of the tracks. "Lovers Moon" features Cajun music-inspired accordion and fiddle. The Sutherland Brothers provided backing vocals on a few tracks. |
Wrong End of the Race | Critical reception | Critical reception
The Philadelphia Inquirer praised "Gregson's knack for writing bracing pop-rock anthems inspired by the likes of Bruce Springsteen and English guitarist Richard Thompson." The Sunday Telegraph called Wrong End of the Race "the best LP of the year so far", and noted that the band "achieve the perfect punchy sound to complement Gregson's irresistible, up-tempo beat numbers". The Press labeled the album "a near flawless example of mainstream rock sonics." The Birmingham Post said of Gregson, "not since Elvis Costello ... has there been such a lyrically incisive personality." The Birmingham Evening Mail opined that the "superior, soul-inspired rock" should have been limited to a single disc. The Birmingham News admired Gregson's "powerful, deep-chested singing voice."
Trouser Press concluded that the album "is less stylized than its remarkable predecessor, but bristles with renewed vigor and rich horn-and-vocal-filled arrangements." In 2005, the Iowa City Press-Citizen said that "this tour-de-force swansong threw aside any attempts to suck-up to industry conventions to make one of the most eclectic and tuneful works of its era." |

Draft:Basel AML Index | AfC submission | The Basel AML Index is an independent tool that ranks countries based on how vulnerable they are to money laundering and other financial crimes. It uses data to assess the level of risk in each country.
It gives each country or jurisdiction a risk score based on information from 17 publicly available sources, including the Financial Action Task Force (FATF), Transparency International, and the Global Initiative against Transnational Organized Crime. These scores reflect how exposed a country is to money laundering, based on five key areas that are known to increase risk:
Quality of AML/CFT/CPF Framework – Evaluates the strength and effectiveness of anti-money laundering, counter-terrorism financing, and counter-proliferation financing measures.
Corruption and Fraud Risks – Assesses the prevalence and severity of corruption and fraudulent practices.
Financial Transparency and Standards – Considers the transparency of financial systems and compliance with international financial reporting standards.
Public Transparency and Accountability – Measures the availability and accessibility of public information and accountability mechanisms.
Legal and Political Risks – Examines the stability and integrity of legal and political institutions and frameworks.
The Basel AML Index is intended to support policymakers, financial institutions, and researchers by offering a clear, comparative measure of countries' exposure to money laundering threats and their capacity to mitigate these risks.The Basel AML Index is created and managed by the Basel Institute on Governance, specifically through its International Centre for Asset Recovery (ICAR). |
