Sürdürülebilir İmalata Örnek Damgalama Kalıbı ve Kalıba Uygun Pnömatik Piston Tasarımı ve İmalatı
Authors: SOFU Mehmet Mahir
Published: July 2019

Farklı
amaçlar ile günümüzde birçok damgalama kalıbı kullanılmaktadır. Damgalama
kalıpları sadece büyük sanayilerde değil aynı zamanda küçük atölyelerde de
kullanılmaktadır. Genelde sanayide hidrolik güç kullanılarak yapılan damgalama
baskılarının küçük atölyelerdeki uygulamaların da kullanılması ilk yatırım
maliyetleri ve enerji sarfiyatı açısından oldukça masraflı olabilmektedir.
Alternatif olarak hava basıncı ile çalışan pnömatik pistonların kullanılması
daha ekonomik ve basit bir işlem olabilmektedir. Fakat metal malzemeler üzerine
yapılan damgalama uygulamalarında sistem basıncı yetersizliği nedeni ile
pnömatik pistonların oluşturduğu kuvvetler damgala neticesi ile oluşması
istenen form için yetersiz kalabilmektedir. Bu çalışmada, tasarımı ve üretimi gerçekleştirilen
damgalama zımbasına uygun, atölye ortamında kolay temin edilebilecek bir hava
kaynağı ile beslenebilen pnömatik piston hesabı yapılarak imal edilmiştir. İmal
edilen damgalama zımbası ve piston ile 5083 alüminyum sac malzeme üzerinde
başarılı denemeler gerçekleştirilmiştir. Ayrıca çalışma maksadına uygun özel
bir imalat içerdiği düşünülürse sürdürülebilir bir imalata örnek olmuştur.

Relationships between fish length, otolith size and otolith weight in Sperata aor (Bagridae) and Labeo bata (Cyprinidae) from the Ganga River, India
Authors: Nazir Aafaq , Khan M. Afzal
Published: July 2019

The present study was conducted to investigate the relationships between fish length, otolith size and otolith weight. A total of 180 Sperata aor and 171 Labeo bata specimens were collected monthly during January 2016 to March 2017 from the River Ganga at the Narora site. Student’s t-test showed no significant differences in the size of right and left otoliths in the selected fish species, therefore, a single linear regression based on the left otolith was carried out. Fish length was plotted against otolith weight, otolith length and otolith height. Moreover, otolith length was plotted against otolith weight and otolith height. The linear regression model was found to fit the data well for fish length to otolith size in both selected fish species. A strong relationship between otolith length and weight was found in both species (r2 > 0.8). Furthermore, the study revealed that fish length is potentially related to otolith size and a strong relationship between fish length and otolith size exists in S. aor (mean r2 = 0.89) as compared to L. bata (mean r2 = 0.70). Such relationships should be determined for the fish species that are ecologically and socio-economically important in order to understand their trophic relationships, population dynamics and yield estimates.
Automated photogrammetric method to identify individual painted dogs (Lycaon pictus)
Authors: Ake Kanako , Ogura Tadatoshi , Kaneko Yayoi , Rasmussen Gregory S. A.
Published: July 2019

The painted dog, Lycaon pictus, has been visually identified by their tricolor patterns in surveys and whilst computerised recognition methods have been used in other species, they have not been used in painted dogs. This study compares results achieved from Hotspotter software against human recognition. Fifteen individual painted dogs in Yokohama Zoo, Japan were photographed using camera-traps and hand-held cameras from October 17–20, 2017. Twenty examinees identified 297 photos visually, and the same images were identified using Hotspotter. In the visual identification, mean accuracy rate was 61.20%, and a mean finish time was 4,840 seconds. At 90.57%, the accuracy rate for Hotspotter was significantly higher, with a mean finish time of 3,168 seconds. This highlights that visual photo-recognition may not be of value for untrained eyes, while software recognition can be useful for this species. For visual identification there was a significant difference in accuracy rates between hand-held cameras and camera-traps whereas for software identification there was no significant difference. This result shows that the accuracy of software identification may be unaffected by the type of photographic device. With software identification there was a significant difference with camera-trap height. This may be because the images of one camera-trap at a lower position became dark due to it being in a shadow.
RETROSPECTIVE ANALYSIS OF PRIMARY DISABILITY FOR PERSONS OF A WORKING AGE DUE TO THE NERVOUS SYSTEM DISEASES DURING THE 2014–2018 PERIOD IN MOSCOW
Authors: Samusenko A.G. , Zapariy N.S.
Published: July 2019

We found a decrease in the number of first-recognized persons with disabilities due to the nervous system diseases among people of working age in both Moscow and the Central Federal District in the Russian Federation in the study of primary disability due to the nervous system diseases among people of working age in Moscow during the 2012–2018 period. Young people with disabilities prevailed in Moscow, middle-aged people with disabilities dominated in the Russian Federation in the first-recognized persons with disabilities structure due to the nervous system diseases among people of working age. The proportion of young people with disabilities in the first-recognized persons with disabilities structure in Moscow is higher than in the Central Federal district and the Russian Federation, and the proportion of the average age ones is lower. The level of primary disability among young people in Moscow is lower than in the Central Federal district and the Russian Federation. There is a predominance of disabled persons of group III among young people and groups I and II among middle-aged people in the first-recognized persons with disabilities structure. The level of primary disability of groups I, II and III due to the nervous system diseases is higher among middle-aged people.

Authors: Abdullah Ariza , Abdul Jabar Mohd. Azidan , Mustapha Nik Farhan , Toklubok@Hajimaming Pabiyah
Published: July 2019

A family unit needs a good leader to produce quality human resources and better experiences in relationships. A critical analysis in the discourse of the Prophet should be undertaken to discover his showmanship of a great leader in the family. The analysis of hadith discourse in the critical perspective of the language of the Prophet Muhammad’s (PBUH) marriage life is still less given attention rather than general analysis of the prophet’s leadership. The purpose of the study is to identify leadership language practices through textual narration and thus, interpret hadith discourse through discursive study to explain the practices. Eleven hadith related by Aisya R.A was selected to show the leadership language during their marriage. An analysis is conducted using Fairclough’s three-dimensional model in critical discourse analysis. The method links between linguistics characters and social practice through discourse practices. Findings discover seven forms of languages being practiced by the Prophet to sustain the marriage and bring happiness to all his wives. The Prophet Mohammad (PBUH) was found to use different practices of language according to the context of the situation. Seven practices identified are negational language, assertive language, request language, nonverbal language, figurative language, expressive language and negation, and declarative language. This study is an effective example of the community to build a stronger domestic institution.
THE IMPORTANCE OF INTER-AGENCY COLLABORATION AND FAMILY LAW NETWORKING IN HANDLING FAMILY CASES: EXAMPLE FROM AUSTRALIA
Authors: Mohd Arshad ‘Ain Husna
Published: July 2019

Family law is one of the areas that requires the collaboration of experts and practitioners from various discipline. The objective of this paper is to discuss the importance of inter-agency collaboration between various agencies in order to resolve family cases holistically. This is rooted in the understanding that family cases normally involve legal and non-legal issues that require resolutions which are beyond black and white of the law. Some cases involve financial, health or other social issues that call for advice from experts in that area. Based on the study conducted, it is found that inter-agency collaboration is needed due to limitations in the substantive family law, it is also to help vulnerable groups, and to provide holistic resolution of family disputes. Understanding the importance of such collaboration, this paper subsequently looks for example based on the practice of Australia that has established a network to coordinate the family law system. The network has been able to disseminate information and conduct pieces of training, expedite the process of referral effectively, and establish linkages between specialists in family law. Such networking and collaboration can help the litigants dealing with their legal, emotional and practical aspect of the issues that they are facing. It also helps the agencies gain a mutual understanding of each other’s role and functions. In addition to that, it may help the disputing parties making an informed decision and prepare for future adjustment to carry on with their parental obligations.
„La Țigănci”, nuvela-parabolă a profetismului eliadesc / "La Țigănci" – The Parable of the Eliadesc Prophetism
Authors: Danciu Liliana
Published: July 2019

The unprecedented experience of Gavrilescu, the main character in the La Țigănci short story, continues to arise  various interpretations, proving the viability of this eliadesc writing. For some literary critics, he is the anti-hero by definition, which lives what Eliade understands by "level break", but without understanding anything of it. The ordinary man, with a banal existence, routinely in the profane becomes the Chosen One uselessly claimed by sacred, for ignorance prevents him from seeing beyond the Illusion. In the hut of the gypsies, he crosses a rite of passage, from life to death, proof being the shrouded curtain that will wrap his naked body, the terrible thirst for unpopularity, and the surprising encounter with the always young Hildegard, the beloved of his youth.In this article, I try to reveal another dimension of this eliadesc short story, linked to the name of the main character, which, in my opinion, refers to the name of the archangel Gabriel, the "pair" of the other, Michael. As it is known, the name of the archangel Michael is directly related to the Romanian legionary movement in the inter-warperiod, a nationalistic, violent and criminal political-ideological movement that has successfully manipulated local religious and cultural elements to gain followers and become strong. Up to a point, the Romanian legionary movement stood under the sign of both archangels, synthesizing both the intellectual and the political dimensions.In time, the two directions have broken apart, and the legion has remained exclusively under the warlike sign of the warrior archangel. The Romanian intellectuals, who originally sympathized with the nationalist ideals of the legionary movement, distanced themselves from it and remained under the soteriological mark of Archangel Gabriel. This is, in my opinion, the message hidden by Eliade in this unusual short story. Also, using allegory and symbol, the Romanian author turns out to be a man of vision and prophesies the future of Romania, which has been culturally and historically marked, in time, by Germany. The present does not contradict Eliade, because Germany is the engine of the European Union, of which Romania wants to be part.
Culorile Noului Val Românesc. Simbolism și semnificații psihologice / The Colors of the Romanian New Wave. Symbolism and psychological significance
Authors: Candel Sorin Octav
Published: July 2019

Recent Romanian films continue to be appreciated by critics and to receive important international awards. This, along with a series of common techniques and themes, led to the emergence of the term "New Romanian Wave", a term assumed by some critics and directors and rejected by others. In this article, I aim to check if the use of colors is a technique that characterizes the films reunited under this umbrella term. In order to do so, I analyzed five films from different years but overall accepted as part of the New Wave. These are Marilena from P7, 4 months, 3 weeks and 2 days, Best intentions, Child’s Pose and Self-Portrait of a Dutiful Daughter. I was interested in discovering the symbols associated with each color, while also emphasizing their psychological meaning. Another goal was to check if and how the chromatic aspects were related to the social reality presented in each movie. Finally, I presented the common features of the films and the differences between them.
Gaps, silences and witnesses: the quest for identity in Henriette Yvonne Stahl’s "My Brother, the Man"
Authors: Radler Dana A
Published: July 2019

Evident from her first book Voica (1924), and up to her last novel Le Témoin de l’Eternité printed first in France in 1975 and translated into Romanian in 1995, Henriette Yvonne Stahl becomes from a promising writer a unique voice in the inter-war and post-war literary scene in Romania.
Starting from Rimbaud’s illuminating pensée “Love has to be reinvented” (Felman  2007: 213),  this paper aims to explore the identity of protagonists in My Brother, the Man (Fratele meu omul, first published in1965), drawing on identity and trauma theory as developed by Penny Brown (1992), Cathy Caruth (1995; 1996), Shoshana Feldman (2007) and Dori Laub (1992; 1995). In addition, the mixture of memory and narrative analyses types of ‘talk fiction’ (Kakandes 2005), the shift of focus from the subject of remembrance to the mode in which it takes place (Whitehead 2009), and how narratives impact readers (Piątek 2014).
Both male and female characters in My Brother, The Man have clear dominant traits, so that their actions and inner voices are marked by abrupt shifts, meant to stimulate a noticeable response from those they love or dislike. Are the main characters engulfed in a dense life texture able to explore their personal dilemmas, difficult choices and detach themselves from the flux of their own passions and desires? Or are they going to fall victim to their own inability to understand life’s meaning, paralleled by a lack of vision and humanity as manifested by other characters? How do they act and react to the actions and emotions they experience? The present paper examines how memories, dilemmas and changes nuance a story moving from a classically-structured narrative to crime fiction, embedding numerous interior monologues and deep psychological impasses, the result being a female novel of self-development.
Longitudinal and Cross-Sectional Cultural Developments

Romulus Bucur is a renowned writer and literary critic. He is also faculty member at Transylvania University of Braşov, institution well-known for its courses of creative writing and translation studies. “Glosses” is a nimbly written theoretical book wherein many topics are analyzed. One of the most important is the work of Alexandru Muşina, editor, writer, professor, and mentor of the Group of Braşov (a fertile contingent of writers still holding sway in Romanian literature).

The second part of the volume is dedicated to the Romanian translations from the classical and contemporary Chinese culture. Mention must be made about the semiotic approach to all literary works glossed about.
To write or not to write: censorship in "The Woman in the Photo" by Tia Șerbănescu and "A Censor’s Notebook" by Liliana Corobca
Authors: Manolachi Monica
Published: July 2019

Censorship as a literary subject has sometimes been necessary in times of change, as it may show how the flaws in power relations influence, sometimes very dramatically, the access to and the production of knowledge. The Woman in the Photo: a Diary, 1987-1989 by Tia Șerbănescu and A Censor’s Notebook by Liliana Corobca are two books that deal with the issue of censorship in the 1980s (the former) and the 1970s (the latter). Both writers tackle the problem from inside the ruling system, aiming at authenticity in different ways. On the one hand, instead of writing a novel, Tia Șerbănescu kept a diary in which she contemplated the oppression and the corruption of the time and their consequences on the freedom of thought, of expression and of speech. She thoroughly described what she felt and thought about her relatives, friends and other people she met, about books and their authors, in a time when keeping a diary was hard and often perilous. On the other hand, using the technique of the mise en abyme, Liliana Corobca begins from a fictitious exchange of emails to eventually enter and explore the mind of a censor and reveal what she thought and felt about the system, her co-workers, her boss, the books she proofread, their authors and her own identity. Detailed examinations and performances of the relationship between writing and censorship, the two novels provide engaging, often tragi-comical, insights into the psychological process of producing literary texts. The intention of this article is to compare and contrast the two author’s perspectives on the act of writing and some of its functions from four points of view: literary, cultural, social and political.

TELAAH NORMATIF ATAS AKTA NOTARIIL DALAM TRANSAKSI EKONOMI SYARIAH
Authors: Aziwantoro Juni
Published: July 2019

Potential disputes can arise in sharia economic transactions if the parties do transaction that are not suitable with sharia principles, even though records have been made at the bank. Another factor is because one party default or does not carry out the contract stated in the notarial deed agreement. In this study, it was revealed that Islamic legal norms teach the importance of recording in muamalah. Thus, the Notarial deed in Islamic economic transactions is very important to guarantee the rights and obligations of the parties who made the agreement. Making the authentic deeds is done in order to create certainty, order, legal protection and to avoid future disputes.

FENOMENA TINDAKAN MAIN HAKIM SENDIRI DALAM HUKUM NEGARA DAN HUKUM ISLAM
Authors: Saiin Asrizal , Iffan Ahmad
Published: July 2019

Perbuatan main hakim sendiri tidak hanya merugikan negara tetapi dapat meruntuhkan moral masyarakat. Tindakan main hakim sendiri telah diatur di dalam agama Islam dan Undang-Undang Dasar Negara Indonesia. Tindakan main hakim sendiri belum diatur secara khusus dalam peraturan perundang-undangan pidana terkhususnya Kitab Undang-undang Hukum Pidana (KUHP). Akan tetapi, bukan berarti KUHP tidak dapat diterapkan sama sekali jika terjadi perbuatan main hakim sendiri, Main hakim sendiri selain merupakan perbuatan melawan hukum juga bertentangan dengan ajaran agama Islam. Agama Islam mengajarkan untuk melakukan tabayyun (memintai keterangan) terlebih dahulu. Berbagai dalil Alquran menjelaskan bagaimana tindakan main hakim sendiri adalah perbuatan sangat keji dan dilarang oleh norma agama. Argumentasi terkait tindakan main hakim sendiri didasari oleh pemikiran masyarakat yang menganggap bahwa perbuatan berdua-duaan di suatu tempat antara dua orang yang berbeda jenis kelamin yang belum menikah merupakan perbuatan yang melanggar norma yang tidak sesuai dengan ajaran agama, kesusilaan dan kesopanan. Walaupun demikian, cara penyelesaian masalah tersebut adalah tetap mengedepankan nilai-nilai moral yang menjunjung tinggi harkat dan martabat manusia.

 

Abstract : The vigilante act does not only harm the nation but also damages people's morale. It is regulated in Islam and the Indonesian Constitution. It has not been specifically regulated in criminal legislation specifically in the Criminal Code (KUHP). However, it does not mean that the Criminal Code cannot be applied at all if there is a vigilante act. It does not only oppose the law but also it is contrary to the Islamic teaching. Islam teaches to confirm first. Various Quranic Dalil explain how vigilante acts are very despicable and prohibited by religious norms. The argument related to vigilante act is based on the public's thought that the act of two-person somewhere between two people of different sexes is an act that violates the norm. It is not suitable with religious teaching, decency and politeness. Therefore, the way to solve the problem is to keep emphasizing moral values ​​that uphold human dignity.
Patterns of coevolution between ambrosia beetle mycangia and the Ceratocystidaceae, with five new fungal genera and seven new species

Published: July 2019

Ambrosia beetles farm specialised fungi in sapwood tunnels and use pocket-like organs called mycangia to carry propagules of the fungal cultivars. Ambrosia fungi selectively grow in mycangia, which is central to the symbiosis, but the history of coevolution between fungal cultivars
and mycangia is poorly understood. The fungal family Ceratocystidaceae previously included three ambrosial genera (Ambrosiella, Meredithiella, and Phialophoropsis), each farmed by one of three distantly related tribes of ambrosia beetles with unique and relatively
large mycangium types. Studies on the phylogenetic relationships and evolutionary histories of these three genera were expanded with the previously unstudied ambrosia fungi associated with a fourth mycangium type, that of the tribe Scolytoplatypodini. Using ITS rDNA barcoding and a
concatenated dataset of six loci (28S rDNA, 18S rDNA, tef1-α, tub, mcm7, and rpl1), a comprehensive phylogeny of the family Ceratocystidaceae was developed, including Inodoromyces interjectus gen. & sp. nov., a non-ambrosial species that
is closely related to the family. Three minor morphological variants of the pronotal disk mycangium of the Scolytoplatypodini were associated with ambrosia fungi in three respective clades of Ceratocystidaceae: Wolfgangiella gen. nov., Toshionella gen. nov., and
Ambrosiella remansi sp. nov. Closely-related species that are not symbionts of ambrosia beetles are accommodated by Catunica adiposa gen. & comb. nov. and Solaloca norvegica gen. & comb. nov. The divergent morphology of the ambrosial genera and their phylogenetic
placement among non-ambrosial genera suggest three domestication events in the Ceratocystidaceae. Estimated divergence dates for the ambrosia fungi and mycangia suggest that Scolytoplatypodini mycangia may have been the first to acquire Ceratocystidaceae symbionts and
other ambrosial fungal genera emerged shortly after the evolution of new mycangium types. There is no evidence of reversion to a non-ambrosial lifestyle in the mycangial symbionts.
On the Habitability of Teegarden’s Star Planets
Authors: Wandel Amri , Tal-Or Lev
Published: July 2019

We study the habitability of the two

Earth-mass planets, recently detected by the CARMENES collaboration, around the ultra-cool nearby M-dwarf Teegarden’s Star. With orbital periods of 4.9 and 11.4 days, both planets are likely to be within the habitable zone and tidally locked. They are among the most Earth-like exoplanets yet discovered. Applying an analytic habitability model we find that surface liquid water could be present on both planets for a wide range of atmospheric properties, which makes them attractive targets for biosignature searches. The prospects of the planets retaining such an atmosphere over their history are discussed.
Optimal Classification and Outlier Detection for Stripped-envelope Core-collapse Supernovae
Authors: Williamson Marc , Modjaz Maryam , Bianco Federica B.
Published: July 2019

In the current era of time-domain astronomy, it is increasingly important to have rigorous, data-driven models for classifying transients, including supernovae. We present the first application of principal component analysis to the photospheric spectra of stripped-envelope core-collapse supernovae. We use one of the largest compiled optical data sets of stripped-envelope supernovae, containing 160 SNe and 1551 spectra. We find that the first five principal components capture 79% of the variance of our spectral sample, which contains the main families of stripped supernovae: Ib, IIb, Ic, and broad-lined Ic. We develop a quantitative, data-driven classification method using a support vector machine, and explore stripped-envelope supernovae classification as a function of phase relative to V-band maximum light. Our classification method naturally identifies “transition” supernovae and supernovae with contested labels, which we discuss in detail. We find that the stripped-envelope supernovae types are most distinguishable in the later phase ranges of 10 ± 5 days and 15 ± 5 days relative to V-band maximum, and we discuss the implications of our findings for current and future surveys such as Zwicky Transient Factory and Large Synoptic Survey Telescope.
The Spin of M87*

Published: July 2019

Now that the mass of the central black hole (BH) in the galaxy M87 has been measured with great precision using different methods, the remaining parameter of the Kerr metric that needs to be estimated is the spin a
*. We have modeled measurements of the average power of the relativistic jet and an upper limit to the mass accretion rate onto the BH with general relativistic magnetohydrodynamic models of jet formation. This allows us to derive constraints on a
* and the BH magnetic flux ϕ. We find a lower limit on M87*'s spin and magnetic flux of

and ϕ ≳ 6 in the prograde case, and

and ϕ ≳ 10 in the retrograde case; otherwise, the BH is not able to provide enough energy to power the observed jet. These results indicate that M87* has a moderate spin at minimum and disfavor a variety of models typified by low values of ϕ known as “standard and normal disk evolution”, indicating that M87* prefers the magnetically arrested disk state. We discuss how different estimates of the jet power and accretion rate can impact a
* and ϕ.
Chromospheric Cannonballs on the Sun
Authors: Yang Shuhong , Zhang Jun , Li Xiaohong , Liu Zhong , Xiang Yongyuan
Published: July 2019

In the highly dynamic chromosphere, there exist many kinds of small-scale activities, such as spicules, surges, and Ellerman bombs. Here, we report the discovery of a new phenomenon in the chromosphere observed with the New Vacuum Solar Telescope at the Fuxian Solar Observatory. In the high tempo-spatial-resolution Hα images, some dark or bright structures are found to fly along the curved trajectory, looking like cannonballs. Their average size, mass, and velocity are about 1.5 × 109 km3, 1.5 × 108 kg, and 56 km s−1, respectively. In the simultaneous (extreme-)ultraviolet images obtained by the Solar Dynamics Observatory, these cannonballs appear as brighter features compared to the surrounding area, implying that there exists some kind of heating during this process. The photospheric magnetograms show the magnetic flux emergence and interaction with the pre-existing fields. These observations reveal that the cannonballs are chromospheric material blobs launched due to the magnetic reconnection between emerging magnetic flux and the pre-existing loops.
Sharing the benefits of taxonomic research: time to upgrade the model
Authors: Lyal Christopher , Neumann Dirk , Nivart Anne
Published: July 2019

Many permits for collecting biological samples have simple conditions, such as returning specimens and information. In meeting them researchers are ‘sharing benefits’ in the context of the Convention on Biological Diversity (CBD). However, the documents giving such conditions are often poorly connected to long-term research by many individuals, leading to tail-off of delivery. The conditions and the benefits shared are also often ineffective for biodiversity conservation because of inefficient linkage to environmental managers and policy priorities. A new model is needed to better manage permit conditions so that users of biological and genetic material are aware of the agreements and can deliver with minimal additional effort, and to provide better linkage to application in provider countries. Many of the informatics tools to permit this are already available. The paper will outline the elements of the model and suggest means of implementation.
SYNTHESYS+ Molecular Collections in the Age of Genomics: Standards and processes
Authors: Seberg Ole , Droege Gabriele , Astrin Jonas , Barker Katharine , Coddington Jonathan
Published: July 2019

The aim of the Global Genome Biodiversity Network (GGBN, http://www.ggbn.org) is to foster collaboration among biodiversity biobanks on a global scale in order to further compliance with standards, best practices, and to secure interoperability and exchange of material in accordance with national and international legislation and conventions. Thus, key aspects of GGBN’s mission are to develop a network of trusted collections, establishing standards, and identifying best practices by reaching out to other communities. This is especially critical in the light of new international legislation such as the recent Nagoya Protocol on Access and Benefit Sharing (ABS).

Biological repositories such as but not limited to natural history collections, botanic gardens, culture collections and zoos are facing a series of challenges triggered by the rapid acceleration in sequencing technology that has put added pressure on the use of samples, which just a few years ago were considered inaccessible for sequencing.

ABS legislation applies to nearly all collection types, and with biodiversity biobanks increasing in number worldwide, there is an urgent need to streamline procedures and to ensure legislative compliance. Within Europe it is necessary to 1) reach common standards for biodiversity and environmental biobanks; 2) define best practices for the use of molecular collections; and 3) try to ease exchange of samples and related information, while staying compliant with legislation and conventions.

Within the EU funded SYNTHESYS+ project (http://www.synthesys.info), GGBN is leading Network Activity 3 (NA3). An overview of planned activities and tasks will be given here with special emphasis on linkages within and beyond SYNTHESYS+.

In the United States, diabetic macular edema (DME) is the leading cause of vision loss among people with diabetic retinopathy. Despite the availability of different therapies for DME, up to half of patients with DME show some persistent edema after anti-vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) treatment alone, leaving these patients at high risk for vision loss. However, dosing in a similar fashion to that of pivotal anti-VEGF trials is difficult because of real-life challenges faced in clinical practice. This is particularly true for DME, in that the frequency and burden of anti-VEGF injections are a major challenge to patient care. Research evaluating anti-VEGF therapies has shaped the treatment paradigms for patients with DME, and similar benefits have also been noted in clinical trials evaluating the use of intravitreal steroids. Treatment with a long-term intravitreal corticosteroid, which requires fewer injections than treatment with most short-acting therapies, has been found to reduce inflammation and improve vision in a percentage of patients. This roundtable discussion, which took place during the 2018 annual meeting of the Vit-Buckle Society, reviews the current treatment paradigms for DME and evaluates how to customize and optimize treatment strategies geared toward individualized patient care.

Dès le dernier tiers du xve siècle, un nouveau genre de publication dissémine un éventail de petits textes en langue française, dont il permet une circulation à une échelle inédite : les pièces gothiques. Ce sont des livrets à bon marché, imprimés en caractères gothiques tout au long du xvie siècle. Précurseurs du « livre populaire », beaucoup de ces brochures sont des ouvrages de catéchèse rudimentaire, des vies de saints, des pronostications, des recueils de recettes médicales, ainsi que des textes qui, relevant du folklore, fleurissaient jusqu'à Rabelais, à savoir des sotties, des farces qui mettent en scène la vie quotidienne, ou encore des textes parodiques et satiriques aux sujets scatologiques et misogynes. D'autres apparaissent comme les ancêtres de notre presse d'information en colportant des « nouvelles » sur l'actualité politique, militaire ou prodigieuse.

Au-delà des savoirs qu'elles divulguent, les pièces gothiques constituent des vecteurs de normes et de valeurs qui concourent à façonner l'opinion, l'âme et le comportement de leurs lecteurs et auditeurs. Elles contribuent ainsi au développement et au fonctionnement de deux structures indispensables et complémentaires à l'État moderne : celle de la légitimation idéologique et celle de l'opinion.

À partir de l'étude minutieuse des 2 200 pièces gothiques environ qui ont pu être recensées, ce livre retrace l'histoire complète, dans le temps et dans l'espace, de ce nouveau média. Les pièces gothiques nous permettent de saisir les nouvelles conditions de circulation des textes et de diffusion de l'information à l'ère de l'imprimerie et elles contribuent à renouveler notre compréhension tout à la fois de la « culture populaire » et du système de communication au tournant du xvie siècle.
Paradis pour une reine
Authors: Wion Anaïs
Published: July 2019

Durant la première moitié du XVIIe siècle, une reine, Wäld Sä'ala, bâtit l'oeuvre de sa vie en s'attribuant un vaste territoire au coeur des hauts plateaux éthiopiens. Un monastère - Qoma Fasilädäs - est fondé pour lui servir de lieu de vie, doter de biens fonciers sa famille et ses proches, conserver sa dépouille et pérenniser sa mémoire. Une formule métaphorique, transmise par la tradition orale, résume ce projet : Aux confins le feu, au centre le Paradis, faisant de cet espace un lieu à part disposant d'institutions dont l'autonomie est fièrement revendiquée. Cette reine fut l'épouse du roi Susneyos (r 1607-1632) qui se convertit au catholicisme et voulut en faire la religion du royaume en s'alliant avec les Jésuites avant que son fils, Fasilädäs (r 1632-1667), ne rétablisse la foi d'Alexandrie. Mais à ces deux hommes elle refusa son soutien pour bâtir son propre réseau d'influence en s'alliant avec ceux qui s'avérèrent être les perdants des grandes batailles politiques de l'époque. De la splendeur de cette petite société de cour, des complots, des meurtres et des exils qui la traversèrent, rien ne subsiste dans l'historiographie officielle de la royauté. L'histoire de Qoma Fasilädäs serait donc restée jusqu'à aujourd'hui inconnue si Anaïs Wion n'était pas allée la rechercher dans les manuscrits jalousement gardés au sein de ce monastère et n'avait questionné sans relâche les dépositaires de cette mémoire. Les "jeux d'échelle" de cette enquête dans une fondation royale éclairent des pans obscurs de ce premier XVIIe siècle éthiopien, aussi crucial qu'encore méconnu, tout autant qu'ils permettent de comprendre comment une tradition orale formalisée, ancrée dans le temps de la fondation, permet aujourd'hui encore de réguler l'accès à la terre et les structures institutionnelles.

This study identified factors that contribute to adolescents' online trust. Two hypotheses are stated: (1) there is a significant influence of social loneliness and self-esteem toward self-disclosure; and (2) social support has a significant influence toward online trust, with self-disclosure as a mediator. 205 high school students completed a survey covering four self-rated scales: online trust, self-disclosure, social support, and loneliness. Each scale met the psychometric standards of validity and reliability. Data was analyzed using structural equation modelling (SEM). The findings confirmed both hypotheses. The Goodness of Fit as indicated by a chi-square coefficient of 345.06 (p = .00); RMSEA: .04; CFI: .98; and TLI: .98, exceeded the set criteria. The main determinant of the direct effect of social trust and online trust model (β = .35**) was self-disclosure, a mediator on the effect of social support toward online trust (β = .05). The variables which directly influenced self-disclosure were loneliness (β = -.31**), self-esteem (β = .14), and social support (β = .24**).
The Study of Antecedents of Consumer Engagement and Purchase Intention in Social Commerce
Authors: Choi Youngkeun
Published: July 2019

The focus of this study is how social commerce engages consumers and encourages them to purchase. By proposing the concepts of consumer engagement as different ways to provide a deep and meaningful experience, this study develops a model that explores the antecedents of consumer engagement and its role in explaining a consumer to purchase in social commerce. For this, this study surveys 352 consumers using social commerce in Korea and analyzes the data using AMOS 24. In the results, first, interactivity, sociability, social ties, and social identity among all of the sub-factors of consumer engagement increases consumer engagement. Second, consumer engagement increases their purchase intention. Finally, interactivity and social identity among the antecedents of consumer engagement increase consumers' purchase intention through their consumer engagement. The findings contribute to research on social commerce by paying scholarly attention to meaningful engagement characterized by consumer engagement.

Authors: Zhang Rong , Li Mengjiao , Liu Bin
Published: July 2019

This article constructed a manufacturer-leading supply chain system considering the extended warranty service (EW) with a single manufacturer and a single retailer to study the influence of service cost on the choice of the EW provider. First, this article analyzed retail pricing, EW pricing, EW quality, the manufacturer's profit, the retail's profit and the total system profit in Model M and Model R. Then, the article analyzed the influence of service cost on the choice of the EW provider. Finally, it shows that if only part of consumers purchases the product with the EW, the manufacturer benefits from EW provided by the retailer. However, the retailer has to balance the ratio of the service cost coefficient. Furthermore, all consumers purchase the product with the EW, both the manufacturer and the retailer has to balance the ratio of service cost coefficient between manufacturer and retailer.

Effect of Cultural Diversity in Communication on Project Success Within Multinational Construction Companies in the United Arab Emirates
Authors: Galli Brian J.
Published: July 2019

All industries rely on communication and its effectiveness to run a system of subcontracting. There are many subcontractors in the construction industry that are involved in processes, such as design, plumbing, electrical, and project management. Communication facilitates cooperation, but when it is ineffective, then it leads to poor performance. The situation is even more critical in a culturally diverse environment, such as the UAE construction industry. This study sought to investigate the risks that ineffective communication can have on a construction industry by using the UAE as a case study. The researcher collected secondary data by conducting an in-depth analysis of past studies. Also, the qualitative analysis of the information led to the realization that communication failure could cause sub-contractor failure, scope changes, design changes, ineffective knowledge transfer, poor stakeholder engagement, time differences, and geographical distance.
