The Ordinary Neolithic People of Abu

The study of the often fragmentary bones from Pre-pottery and later Neolithic levels of the Abu Hureyra tell has revealed the everyday lives of the families who lived there between ten and eight thousand years ago. Excavations explored the settlement in seven trenches A-G. Already trenches B, D, E and G have shown that initially the villagers were hunters and gatherers who progressed to growing cereals then to husbanding domesticated animals and acquired the skills of techniques to aid manufacture and storage of their produce. Burials from trenches A, C and F confirm this picture. The first Neolithic PPNB burial in trench E, if a foundation burial, may signal a change in focus from the closure deposits of abandoned buildings to a bond with the future. Later arrivals, of a physically distinctive tribe, marked their arrival at Abu Hureyra with secondary burials in the largest building within the host settlement. It may be they who introduced successful methods of shepherding, specialist crafts, and, above all, integrated with the host population. Situated at the edge of the desert the inhabitants of Abu Hureyra were subsistence farmers vulnerable to the vagaries of any change in the climate and it is not easy to understand how their ideological identities developed over time; they appear less sophisticated or hierarchical than their neighbours.
Alimentação emocional: narrativa histórica e o panorama atual

Pode-se constar um aumento na disponibilidade de trabalhos sobre o tema ao longo dos anos, sendo a maioria deles desenvolvidos em países de língua inglesa. Conclusão: O interesse pelo tema se mostrou aumentado ao longo de todo o período revisado e provavelmente permanecerá nos próximos anos tendo em vista o estilo de vida moderna com impacto emocional, como aumento dos níveis de estresse, ansiedade e depressão, e também o aumento de casos de obesidade e transtornos alimentares.
Transfert couplé d'électron et de proton dans des complexes de métaux de transition modèles et d'intérêts biomimétiques : études mécanistiques par une approche électrochimique

La performance des complexes biomimetiques utilises comme catalyseurs pourrait resider dans le fait que, lorsqu'ils impliquent un transfert 1e-,1H+ (PCET) celui-ci ait lieu de maniere concertee, evitant ainsi la formation d'intermediaires couteux en energie. Par une approche experimentale electrochimique, nous avons determine les parametres gouvernant la competition entre mecanismes sequentiel et concerte pour un PCET grâce a un compose modele ([OsII(bpy)2py(H2O)](PF6)2). Pour ce faire, les mecanismes propres a chaque PCET presentes par le complexe d'osmium ont ete identifies : le transfert 1e-,1H+ associe au couple redox OsII(H2O)/OsIII(OH) emprunte un mecanisme sequentiel alors que celui associe au couple redox OsIII(OH)/OsII=O emprunte un mecanisme concerte. En comparant ces deux systemes, nous avons pu determiner les parametres influencant le mecanisme concerte. Ainsi, un complexe « ideal » presentant un mecanisme concerte possede une sphere de coordination assez rigide afin d'avoir des constantes de vitesse standard elevee, un ecart de ses constantes d'acidite important, une base geographiquement proche, doit etre dans un environnement ne presentant pas d'anion pouvant s'associer plus fortement avec le complexe que la base et enfin repondre correctement aux criteres de solubilite et stabilite chimique dans le milieu cible. L'etude d'un complexe de manganese biomimetique de la superoxyde dismutase a permis d'appliquer la methodologie mise en place lors de l'etude du complexe d'osmium et de confirmer les conclusions mises a jour par ce dernier: lorsque la concentration en espece acceptrice de proton est importante, le processus concerte peut devenir preponderant.
How Do Ethical Leadership and Organizational Justice Affect Work Outcomes? Does Perceived Organizational Support Mediate the Relationships?

Purpose– Employees' work-related attitudes and behavior is a topic of considerable interest in the areas of organizational behavior and human resource management. This research aims to explore the impact of ethical Leadership and organizational justice on employees' work outcomes while considering perceived organizational support as a mediating variable. Design /Methodology / Approach – We collected data from 800 employees working in the top four cellular companies of Punjab, Pakistan. A self-administered survey was used to collect data. SPSS, version 18 was used for data analysis. Regression analysis and correlation analysis are done to trace the direct and mediating connection between key variables of the study. Findings – Results showed that both ethical leadership and organizational justice have a positive relationship with work outcomes. Results also show that perceived organizational support partially mediates the relationship between key variables. Practical Implications – Ethical leaders have multiple influences on employee outcomes. Therefore, managers should enhance their ethical leadership in order to ensure desirable work attitudes and better employee performance. Originality – This study is a pioneering attempt to explore the mediating role of perceived organizational support in shaping the relationship between ethical leadership, organizational justice, and employee work outcomes.
The Effects of Selenium on Estrogen-regulated Gene Expression in LNCaP Prostate Cancer Cells

THE EFFECTS OF SELENIUM ON ESTROGEN-REGULATED GENE EXPRESSION IN LNCAP PROSTATE CANCER CELLS Tory L. Parker Department of Nutrition, Dietetics and Food Science Master of Science Prostate cancer is the most frequently diagnosed cancer in American men and the second leading cause of cancer deaths. Supplementation with Se has reduced the incidence of prostate cancer and Se status is inversely correlated with prostate cancer risk. One molecular mechanism by which high Se concentrations may affect cancer risk is by catalyzing disulfide bond formation or otherwise complexing with reactive sulfhydryl groups in cellular proteins. The estrogen receptor (ER) contains cysteines in zinc (Zn) fingers that are susceptible to oxidation and internal disulfide formation, which can prevent DNA binding. We examined ER binding to its DNA response element and gene expression levels for estrogen-regulated genes in human prostate cancer cells (LNCaP) treated with control (50 nM) or high (5 μM) concentrations of Se. High Se treatment resulted in a non-significant 16 % decrease in ER binding to the estrogen response element (ERE), and no significant changes were found in expression levels of estrogen-regulated genes for either run-on nuclear transcripts or total mRNA. The well documented reaction of Se with reactive sulfhydryl groups, if it occurs in the ER in vivo, has a minimal effect on the binding of ER to DNA and its regulation of gene expression.

Efecto del área marina protegida de las islas de Ventotene y Santo Stefano sobre la comunidad de peces

The present study aims to examine the effect of the marine protected reserve of the islands of Ventotene and Santo Stefano, by studying the biomass of the fish community in the different protection zones. To do this, we had to sample the abundance and measure the fish. This was done in two periods of time and in different locations, within the reserve. The fish species found were analyzed in various groups in order to determine the possible effect of the reserve on these groups separately. On the other hand, and given its important socioeconomic role, the mere, was analyzed separately. The results indicate that there are significant differences in fish biomass for the different areas of the reserve that we studied. Zone A of integral reserve presented a greater number and biomass of benthic commercial species and the grouper as an individual unit. However, in pelagic species, their biomass was determined by seasonal variability. The present work shows the usefulness of the Marine Protected area of the islands of Ventotene and Santo Stefano to increase the biomass of the fish with commercial interest.
Leadership Lessons from Indian Knowledge System

In a Volatile, Uncertain, Complex and Ambiguous (VUCA) world efficiently managing the human resources is highly challenging for this era leaders. Leadership is a powerful enabler that can leverage an organisation to any heights. But bad leadership can downside any organization which leads to destruction. To lead the organization effectively and efficiently leaders follow different types of leadership styles. So, one of the critical challenges is leading the organization and driving towards his vision. Therefore, one of the major issues and the real concern of any organization is identifying great leaders and nurturing the best qualities. Several theories were discussed and deliberated this issue from a multiple perspective. So many different qualities and styles of leadership have been discussed in modern management theories. The interesting observation is our ancient scriptures such as Bhagavad Gita, Mahabharata, Ramayana, Arthashastra and Bhoja Prabandha etc., we get different perspectives of what leadership is and what it can do to an organization. For Instance, Lord Krishna who was the avatar of Lord Vishnu who was a divine soul with a high degree of intelligence, communication skills and ability to influence others and capable of resolving any crises faced by his devotees. In the modern scenario, it can be said that Lord Krishna has acted as the greatest crises manager the world has ever produced. If we look towards Mahabharata, we can say that Krishna was the Finest Strategist. Even though many other characters in Mahabharata have responded to the great challenges at that time. Krishna was also a thoughtful and intelligent leader he adopted different leadership style according to the time; people and situation. Majorly this paper focus on how our Indian ancient scriptures such as Bhagavad Gita, Mahabharata and Ramayana had different perspectives on leadership qualities.
A short summary of Price Theory

I propose an alternative to the conventional definition of “price theory” as pricetaking in partial equilibrium. Instead I define it as a methodological approach that derives a small collection of “prices” sufficient to characterize low-dimensional allocative problems in rich aggregate economies. A classic example is optimal income taxation formulas based on summary elasticities of taxable income and measures of inequality. This definition derives from a tight analogy to thermodynamics in physics and contrasts both with “reductionism” (e.g. game theory) that seek more complete characterizations of lower-dimensional economies and reduced-form “empiricism” that builds off of available empirical evidence. I use recent research from fields ranging from market design to international trade to highlight this definition and both the contrasts and complementarities of such price theory with empiricism and reductionism. I then argue that this schema helps make sense of the historical evolution of price theory during the 19th and 20th centuries, especially its interaction with the other traditions during the last half century, when price theory was closely identified with the University of Chicago. I conclude by expositing the analytic tools of price theory. ∗I appreciate the financial support of the Ewing Marion Kauffman and Alfred P.

Designing Representations in Deeply Disciplinary Educational Games

: Educational games are common in classrooms and have been extensively studied in multiple domains. The Geniventure game was developed to support student learning of core concepts in genetics via challenges that engage students with genetic phenomena at the molecular level. A core feature of the game is that it simulates behavior of molecular entities (genes, proteins, organelles) with high disciplinary fidelity to how these mechanisms really operate in the cell. In this sense, it is deeply disciplinary. The commitment to disciplinary fidelity presents design challenges regarding the ways in which entities, activities, and mechanisms are represented and manipulated in the game across the biological organization levels. We discuss five distinct types of design challenges that we identified based on data from focus groups with students who played the game and provide design heuristics for addressing these challenges.
Delhi: A Metaphor of Hope and Despair in Delhi and Twilight in Delhi

'This paper is an effort to de-construct the two opposite ideas of hope and despair in Ahmed Ali's Twilight in Delhi and Khushwant Singh's Delhi. The comparative points of view regarding Delhi by Singh and Ali serve to construct the ideological, political and ontological framing of Delhi. The paper explores the significance of Delhi as a symbol of political energy which distributes power or snatches it as an active agent of power-history. The paper exhibits the socio-political, economic and communal structures portrayed by Ali and Singh. The study is an effort to detect the system of representation in the metaphor of Delhi in the context of power-resistance and failure of the struggle against the Raj. The paper tries to show that both Ali and Singh see Delhi with a difference of outlook and literary approach to manifest hope and despair.
Effect of Duration of Soil Saturation on Ethanol Concentration and Storage Loss of Sweet Potato Roots1

The effect of 24, 48, and 72 hours of soil saturation on the ethanol concentration of roots at harvest and on postharvest storage loss was investigated for sweet potato [Ipomoea batatas (L.) Lam. cvs. Jewel and Centennial]. Ethanol accumulated rapidly with increasing time of soil saturation for both cultivars. Ethanol concentration was greater in roots taken from soil with slow drainage rates following saturation than from roots grown in soil with a fast drainage rate. The ethanol concentration in ‘Centennial’ roots did not increase beyond 48 hour saturation in soil with good drainage following saturation, while ethanol accumulated in ‘Jewel’ roots up to 72 hours. Weight loss in storage due to shrinkage and rotting was greatest for Jewel when subjected to 72 hours of continuous saturation followed by poor drainage, but as little as 24 hours of soil saturation followed by poor drainage caused significant storage losses.
A Comparative Analysis of the Ensemble Method for Liver Disease Prediction

Early diagnosis of liver disease is very important in order to save human lives and take appropriate measure to control the disease. In several fields, especially in the field of medical science, the ensemble method was successfully applied. This research work uses different ensemble methods to investigate the early detection of liver disease. The selected dataset for this analysis is made up of attributes such as total bilirubin, direct bilirubin, age, sex, total protein, albumin, and globulin ratio. This research mainly aims at measuring and comparing the efficiency of different ensemble methods. AdaBoost, LogitBoost, BeggRep, BeggJ48 and Random Forest are the ensemble method used in this research. The study shows that LogitBoost is the most accurate model than other ensemble approaches.
Early Concept Validation through Provocative Experience Prototyping

This essay reports on a research project aiming at validation of a concept for an Al-driven speech interface for smart services in public spaces. The research team created a simple experience prototype that simulated the envisioned functionality and was used to experiment with subjects in dialogues. The interaction with the prototype invoked a provocative experience that allowed test subjects to better imagine the impact that such a concept for smart services would have in their neighbourhood.

Infographics, assessment and digital literacy: innovating learning and teaching through developing ethically responsible digital competencies in public health

Infographics are eye-catching one-page documents that provide a concise overview of a topic through visually representing information or data using graphics, icons and/or images, with minimal words. They are an emerging key form of communication in society, government, research, education and industry, and can be found widely in social media, advertising, teaching, policy documents and scientific journal publications, for example. Due to their user- friendly, quick-read format, infographics are highly influential in shaping the opinions of their audience. An emerging issue with infographics, however, is the capacity to mislead or misrepresent information or data. In the contemporary higher education environment, providing students with digital literacy skills, including the capacity to critically evaluate digital media forms such as infographics, is vital. This paper will provide a review of the use of infographics in learning and teaching in the literature, including as assessment, examining the benefits as well as the potential issues, and how some of these challenges might be met.
Impact of Digital Media Usage on Human Happiness and Well Being - An Analysis of Rural Communities in Thailand

The distribution of digital media seems to impact on daily communication media usage and invest a lot of money on digital living. This study aims to examine the effects of digital culture and digital media on the happiness and well-being of rural people (n=387, α=0.05) in the Koakha and Thagham sub districts in Lampang and Singhburi provinces.The results found that the majority samples perceived the highest score ( = 4.01, s.d.=0.9) on analogue television and personal communication which influences six factors; 1)health and mind dimension; 2)job security dimension; 3)economic security dimension; 4) community and family relationships; 5) administrative management dimension; 6) community environment and climate dimension together where they are entwined and cannot be easily separated. Investing in modern media tools and systems (social networks, mobile devices, digital television), should be embraced, though they should be treated with caution. It is also crucial to account for any unintended effects, such as unfiltered or unverified information. The paper further questions the role of local government, and their role in promoting local identity, social policy and how digitisation could assist in serving those living outside of major cities in Thailand.
Couverture vaccinale antigrippale en baisse : évaluation de l'impact d'une information adaptée lors des visites à domicile par SOS Médecins du secteur Hyères

Chaque annee en France, la grippe atteint 2 a 8 millions de personnes de tout âge avec une mortalite touchant principalement les personnes fragiles dont les personnes âgees. La variabilite antigenique du virus necessite une vaccination annuelle pour obtenir une protection optimale. Depuis 2009, la couverture vaccinale antigrippale ne cesse de diminuer dans un contexte de mefiance des Francais vis-a-vis de la vaccination. Notre hypothese est qu’une information orale et ecrite donnee par les medecins de SOS medecin lors des visites a domiciles quel que soit le motif de consultation initial a une influence sur la couverture vaccinale. Pour cela nous avons realise une etude de cohorte sur 3 mois avec l’aide de 6 medecins de SOS medecins du var. Nous avons inclus 135 patients et nous avons compare le taux de vaccination entre un groupe qui recevait une information les encourageant a se faire vacciner et un groupe temoin ne recevant pas d’information particuliere. L’analyse des donnees font penser qu’une information delivree par SOS medecin et plus generalement les professionnels de sante a une action benefique sur la couverture vaccinale antigrippale. Cette information claire et personnalisee repond a une demande sous-jacente de la population. Le patient veut etre de plus en plus acteur de sa sante. SOS medecin a un vrai role et une action complementaire des medecins traitants en cabinet quant a l’information et a l’education des patients. Notre etude doit encourager les medecins a avoir une approche centree sur le patient et a favoriser une relation de confiance.
