El papel cohesionador del sector fundacional ante la nueva normalidad. La situación en Euskadi

El sector fundacional en el País Vasco desarrolla su actividad en una variedad de ámbitos en sintonía con el amplio abanico que recoge el artículo 4-1 de la Ley de Fundaciones Vascas, construyendo su elemento común el de servir a fines de interés general. Este sector supone 13.045 empleos remunerados anualizados, una facturación de más de 566 millones de euros, y un Valor Añadido Bruto (VAB) generado de 219 millones de euros. A partir de la declaración del estado de alarma en marzo de 2020, se abrió una ventana de gran incertidumbre en la que las organizaciones tuvieron que desplegar toda su agilidad y creatividad para dar respuesta a situaciones nuevas y que requerían acción inmediata. Asimismo se plantea empezar a trabajar sobre el contexto post pandémico, repensar estratégicamente las organizaciones, imaginando un futuro en el que la pandemia habría dejado cambios estructurales en sus modelos de gestión y de organización del trabajo. En este artículo se va a analizar cómo ha afectado la pandemia a las fundaciones en Euskadi y sus perspectivas de futuro en este próximo contexto post pandemia para dar cumplimiento a sus fines fundacionales y mantener su papel cohesionador y solidario. Para ello, junto con un análisis de la literatura más recientesobre los análisis llevados a cabo sobre la pandemia y las fundaciones y la economía social, se llevará a cabo un análisis del sector fundacional en Euskadi, sus rasgos y situación específica a través de encuestas y entrevistas en profundidad con los agentes sociales.
Disk apparatus capable of continuous display of data using a single recording head

A disk apparatus for reproducing in a preliminarily determined order digital video data recorded in a plurality of areas (31, 32, 33) of an optical disk (17) at different positions with respect to the radial position of the optical disk in a reproduction mode by an optical head (16). The reproduced video data is stored in a buffer memory (14) and encoded by an MPEG decoder (18). The amount of digital video data corresponding to the access time for accessing the recording areas of the optical disk are reproduced from the optical disk at a speed higher than the bit rate at which the video data is input or output and stored in the buffer memory. The digital video data are continuously read out and reproduced from the buffer memory when the optical head is in the recording areas and accesses between the recording areas.
Geomaterials: from waste to resource

GeoRes aims to expand the scope of the involved teams’ research in addressing some of the outstanding challenges in geotechnical and geoenvironmental engineering: developing innovative solutions for the reuse of waste geomaterials generated by construction and mining industries across Europe. Geomaterial waste represents half of the waste volume generated in EU-27. These waste geomaterials generally exhibit poor engineering characteristics that prevent their direct reuse on construction/mining sites. However, if adequately treated, they could represent an excellent resource for construction purposes with significant money saving and reduction in the environmental footprint, thus contributing to the establishment of a circular economy. To achieve this, GeoRes will develop protocols, software and tools to improve the engineering characteristics of waste geomaterials, and to guarantee the level of performance over the service life of geostructures built from waste geomaterials considering site-specific conditions. The fundamental concern of the research in the GeoRes network is thus to develop strategies and tools for sustainable reuse of waste geomaterials generated by geoengineering activities, and to determine how to turn a waste geomaterial into a valued durable material, with a positive revenue stream. The proposed network is at the interface of two domains of engineering; geotechnical and geoenvironmental. Even today, it is not easy to find researchers with expertise in both geotechnical and geoenvironmental engineering. We intend to form a multidisciplinary and intersectoral consortium composed of 6 academic and 5 industrial beneficiaries and 6 Third Country partners which aim to address this problem. GeoRes will create a multidisciplinary and intersectoral network of creative and innovative researchers and practising engineers ready to face geotechnical and geoenvironmental engineering challenges which arise in the vanguard of technological innovation.
Czech National Bank Verbal Interventions: Does the Exchange Rate React to Words from CNB Bank Board?

This paper focuses on impact of central bank's oral commentaries on asset prices, i.e. verbal interventions. The paper maps basic preconditions and key channel how central bank's words mirror into asset prices. A significant part of the paper concentrates on the Czech Republic where the exchange rate floor and accompanying frequent comments from the CNB's Bank Board are in operation since 2013. The first hypothesis tests whether there is asset price-making information during the Bank Board decision days. In this sense, the factor analysis confirms at least two factors which influence various asset prices. It is assumed that former factor concerns the surprise in monetary policy decision and the latter following press conference. The second hypothesis endeavours to specify the components of verbal interventions: position in the Bank Board, verbal intervention form and visibility of intervention topic. Only comments made by the CNB's governor proved to be significant, leading to higher volatility of the exchange rate.
The Influence of Tax Amnesty Benefit Perception to Taxpayer Compliance

This study aims to examine the effect of tax amnesty benefits perceived on This study aims to examine the effect of tax amnesty on taxpayer compliance on service quality as a moderating variable. The population in this study is the people who follow the tax amnesty in Surabaya is 58,415 individual taxpayers registered in KPP Pratama Surabaya. The sampling technique chosen was judgmental sampling with slovin formula obtained 100 samples. This study was analyzed using partial least square with path analysis model. The results of this study indicate that the benefits of tax amnesty are perceived to affect tax compliance that service quality cannot moderate the relationship between the two. The conclusion in this research is the Taxpayer already feel confident will be abolished taxes that should be owed because they feel watered down and because get tax relief to be more obedient. Good service quality has been done by the Government and fiscal, but with the existence of taxpayer surge that follow the program Amnesty Tax in the last days so that makes Taxpayers feel less comfortable with the services that have been given.
In vitro cultures for production of Zerumbone and mass propagation in Zingiber Zerumbet Smith / Farah Diana binti Idris

Lempoyang (Zingiber zerumbet Smith.) is an important plant which has been propagated because of its medicinal values. Lempoyang is widely used as a folk medicine in Asian countries such as Malaysia, Indonesia, India and Taiwan. Zerumbone, a cyclic sesqueterpene found to be the major and main bioactive compound that gives great potential in medicinal purposes especially in the treatment of chronic diseases based on recent reports. Recently, it was found that zerumbone inhibited the growth of human leukemia cell line, HL-60 cell. Even though there are so many great values contain in the lempoyang but it is hard to obtain rhizome as raw material due to its exposure to pest and fungal infection through conventional propagation. Therefore, tissue culture was used to overcome pest and fungal infection faced through conventional propagation. In vitro plant was established in culture and acclimatized before field planting to produce rhizomes, extracted and the amount of zerumbone was compared to in vivo rhizomes. The amount was significantly higher in the in vitro derived rhizomes than in vivo rhizomes from three types of extraction methods used in this research. In addition, another promising alternative for micropropagation that could drive the efficiency of secondary metabolites production through the establishment of regenerable embryogenic cell suspension cultures. Cell suspension established in shake flask was also used as a source of zerumbone in this study. Zerumbone was found excreted in the liquid media. Even though the amount is not comparable from the in vitro derived rhizomes, but the presence can be enhanced by manipulating the production of zerumbone in future research.
Discovering new catalysts in the cluster-nanoparticle transition regime

The purpose of this proposal is to establish new fundamental insight of the reactivity and thereby the catalytic activity of oxides, nitrides, phosphides and sulfides (O-, N-, P-, S- ides) in the Cluster-Nanoparticle transition regime. We will use this insight to develop new catalysts through an interactive loop involving DFT simulations, synthesis, characterization and activity testing. The overarching objective is to make new catalysts that are efficient for production of solar fuels and chemicals to facilitate the implementation of sustainable energy, e.g. electrochemical hydrogen production and reduction of CO2 and N2 through both electrochemical and thermally activated processes. 
Recent research has identified why there is a lack of significant progress in developing new more active catalysts. Chemical scaling-relations exist among the intermediates, making it difficult to find a reaction pathway, which provides a flat potential energy landscape - a necessity for making the reaction proceed without large losses. My hypothesis is that going away from the conventional size regime, > 2 nm, one may break such chemical scaling-relations. Non-scalable behavior means that adding an atom results in a completely different reactivity. This drastic change could be even further enhanced if the added atom is a different element than the recipient particle, providing new freedom to control the reaction pathway. The methodology will be based on setting up a specifically optimized instrument for synthesizing such mass-selected clusters/nanoparticles. Thus far, researchers have barely explored this size regime. Only a limited amount of studies has been devoted to inorganic entities of oxides and sulfides; nitrides and phosphides are completely unexplored. We will employ atomic level simulations, synthesis, characterization, and subsequently test for specific reactions. This interdisciplinary loop will result in new breakthroughs in the area of catalyst material discovery.
Southeast Asian activism and limits to independent political space

The scope and nature of political space through which different interests and ideologies, including those of social activists, can influence the exercise of state power has been a matter of continuing and unresolved contention in Southeast Asia over the last thirty years. In its most spectacular form, this has resulted in the overthrow of authoritarian regimes- as in the Philippines in 1986, Thailand in 1992 and Indonesia in 1998. Elsewhere, the absence or failure of People Power movements has not prevented the expansion of political space for social activism - including within various authoritarian regimes, where both pockets of courageous independent activity and creative attempts at absorbing social activists into the state can be found. Despite this diversity, a remarkable feature of contemporary political developments across the region has been the disarticulation of civil society organizations (CSOs) from formal political institutions. Activists have often eschewed political parties, which have been less oriented towards programmatic agendas and more geared to serve as patronage machines (see Case 2002). Especially striking is the uniform weakness of working class-based organizations, which were crucial to expanding liberal democracy's political space during its historic development in Western Europe. This has placed greater responsibility for advancing democratic change onto other organizations, and provided a context within which middle class-led organizations have been especially prominent in social activism of varying ideological orientations.
Acute Kidney Injury in Patients With Chronic Kidney Disease Undergoing Internal Carotid Artery Stent Implantation

This study sought to investigate acute kidney injury (AKI) following carotid artery stenting (CAS). Few data exist on AKI following CAS. This study evaluated 126 chronic kidney disease (CKD) patients who underwent CAS. The risk for contrast-induced AKI was defined by the Mehran score. Hemodynamic depression (i.e., periprocedural systolic blood pressure <90 mm Hg or heart rate <60 beats/min), AKI (i.e., an increase of ≥0.3 mg/dl in the serum creatinine concentration at 48 h), and 30-day major adverse events (including death, stroke, and acute myocardial infarction) were assessed. AKI occurred in 26 patients (21%). Although baseline kidney function and contrast volume were similar in the AKI group and the non-AKI group, the risk score was higher (10 ± 3 vs. 8 ± 3; p = 0.032), and hemodynamic depression (mostly due to hypotension) (65.5% vs. 35%; p = 0.005) was more common in the AKI group. The threshold of hemodynamic depression duration for AKI development was 2.5 min (sensitivity 54%, specificity 82%). Independent predictors of AKI were hemodynamic depression (odds ratio [OR]: 4.01; 95% confidence interval [CI]: 1.07 to 15.03; p = 0.009), risk score (OR: 1.29; 95% CI: 1.03 to 1.60; p = 0.024), and male sex (OR: 6.07; 95% CI: 1.18 to 31.08; p = 0.021). Independent predictors of 30-day major adverse events that occurred more often in the AKI group (19.5% vs. 7%; p = 0.058) were AKI (HR: 4.83; 95% CI: 1.10 to 21.24; p = 0.037) and hemodynamic depression (HR: 5.58; 95% CI: 1.10 to 28.31; p = 0.038). AKI in CKD patients undergoing CAS is mostly due to hemodynamic depression and is associated with a higher 30-day major adverse events rate.

SUSCEPTIBILITY OF POTATO TUBER MOTH, PHTHORIMAEA OPERCULELLA (ZELLER) TO CIPC (CHLORPROPHAM)

CIPC is normally used for sprout inhibition in stored potatoes meant for processing and table purposes. This compound has been tested as a substitute for chemical pesticides in integrated management of phthorimaea operculella in potato stores. The effect of cipc against different stages of p. operculella was evaluated through bioassays. The relative susceptibility of various stages of p. operculella was studied by topical application in the laboratory at 26°c incubation. LC 50 of CIPC to eggs was 0.0359%. The susceptibility of CIPC decreased with increasing larval age. The LC 50 increased from 0.0398% for neonate larvae to 0.0487%, 0.0512%and 0.0795% for second, third and fourth instar larvae, respectively. pupa was found more susceptible as compared to fourth instar larvae with LC 50 of 0.0500%. CIPC was found highly effective against p. operculella adults. There was 100.0% mortality of adults released on CIPC (0.06%) treated tubers in glass jars. The persistence studies revealed 25% mortality of adults after 7 days of treatment. after two months of storage, there was no potato tuber moth infestation in tubers treated with CIPC (0.06%) as compared to 84% in control. CIPC completely stopped the development of sprouts up to a period of two months. with larvae already in tubers, the cipc was extremely effective, with a success rate of 100%. These results indicated good prospects of CIPC application for management of potato tuber moth in country stores.

Structural and electronic properties of U<sub><i>n</i></sub>O<sub><i>m</i></sub> (<i>n</i>=1-3,<i>m</i>=1-3<i>n</i>) clusters: A theoretical study using screened hybrid density functional theory

The structural and electronic properties of small uranium oxide clusters UnOm (n=1-3, m=1-3n) are systematically studied within the screened hybrid density functional theory. It is found that the formation of U-O-U bondings and isolated U-O bonds are energetically more stable than U-U bondings. As a result, no uranium cores are observed. Through fragmentation studies, we find that the UnOm clusters with the m/n ratio between 2 and 2.5 are very stable, hinting that UO2+x hyperoxides are energetically stable. Electronically, we find that the O-2p states always distribute in the deep energy range, and the U-5f states always distribute at the two sides of the Fermi level. The U-6d states mainly hybridize with the U-5f states in U-rich clusters, while hybridizing with O-2p states in O-rich clusters. Our work is the first one on the screened hybrid density functional theory level studying the atomic and electronic properties of the actinide oxide clusters.
The Effects of Environmental and Social Dimensions of Sustainability in Response to the Economic Crisis of European Cities

The concept of sustainable development, which has emerged over the last few decades, has moved away from the global to the local level. The sustainability measurements at the global level use the triple bottom line, considering environmental, economic and social dimensions; however, the limited data available at the local level has driven what little research there is to use these optics when considering cities sustainability. In this paper, we use a sustainability city index based on the intellectual capital approach, which considers the three dimensions for European cities. Concretely, we use the environmental and social dimensions of this city index to analyze the effect of different levels of development in terms of sustainability over the main economic variables with available information. The results highlight the importance of the social and environmental dimensions of sustainability in cities economic recovery and show that cities with best positions in sustainability have better performance in economic terms.

It examines the characteristics of international, country-specific and EU asylum governance instruments and arrangements and their gender and age specific impacts on individuals and sharing of responsibility from the perspective of their effectiveness, fairness and consistency with international and regional human rights and refugee law standards. ASILE ensures a ground-breaking interdisciplinary examination of the role of key policy and implementing actors, and the effects of vulnerability and status recognition assessments over the agency and rights of individuals in search of international protection.
Schrodinger Equation on homogeneous trees

Let T be a homogeneous tree and L the Laplace operator on T. We consider the semilinear Schrodinger equation associated to L with a power-like nonlinearity F of degree d. We first obtain dispersive estimates and Strichartz estimates with no admissibility conditions. We next deduce global well-posedness for small L2 data with no gauge invariance assumption on the nonlinearity F. On the other hand if F is gauge invariant, L2 conservation leads to global well-posedness for arbitrary L2 data. Notice that, in contrast with the Euclidean case, these global well-posedness results hold with no restriction on d > 1. We finally prove scattering for small L2 data, with no gauge invariance assumption.
New 30 m resolution Hong Kong climate, vegetation, and topography rasters indicate greater spatial variation than global grids within an urban mosaic

Abstract. The recent proliferation of high-quality global gridded environmental datasets has spurred a renaissance of studies in many fields, including biogeography. However, these data, often 1 km at the finest scale available, are too coarse for applications such as precise designation of conservation priority areas and regional species distribution modeling, or purposes outside of biology such as city planning and precision agriculture. Further, these global datasets likely underestimate local climate variations because they do not incorporate locally relevant variables. Here we describe a comprehensive set of 30 m resolution rasters for Hong Kong, a small tropical territory with highly variable terrain where intense anthropogenic disturbance meets a robust protected area system. The data include topographic variables, a Normalized Difference Vegetation Index raster, and interpolated climate variables based on weather station observations. We present validation statistics that convey each climate variable's reliability and compare our results to a widely used global dataset, finding that our models consistently reflect greater climatic variation. To our knowledge, this is the first set of published environmental rasters specific to Hong Kong. We hope this diverse suite of geographic data will facilitate future environmental and ecological studies in this region of the world, where a spatial understanding of rapid urbanization, introduced species pressure, and conservation efforts is critical. The dataset (Morgan and Guénard, 2018) is accessible at https://doi.org/10.6084/m9.figshare.6791276.
