The imagined parakeet: invention and fact irrelevance in the speculative essay
Authors: Hemley Robin
Published: July 2021

Despite the ascendancy of the lyric essay as a form over the past two decades, the essay,

whether lyric or otherwise, is still pegged to the category of nonfiction, an amorphous

genre that includes everything from journalism to criticism. Any definition of

nonfiction will include some variation of the idea that, foremost, nonfiction considers

what is ‘informative’ and ‘factual’. But are such definitions limiting where many

essayists are concerned?

Must an essay, as a subset of nonfiction, entertain ‘thing-ness’ or the empirical world

at all? Or is the truth of an essay sometimes speculative without the need to admit

things or facts, existing simply as a tidal wave of strange imaginings? A Speculative

Essay concerns itself with the figurative over the literal, ambiguity over knowing,

meditation over reportage.

For some essayists, in all manner of subgenres, from nature writers to personal

essayists, facts as such matter only in the path they open to speculation. While this kind

of formal speculation is often conflated with the lyric essay, the lyric essay does not

own speculation. Essays that tilt more towards metaphor than fact exist in a crack

between genres that remains unclassifiable.
La exclusión de Izumisano del sistema de impuestos de la ciudad natal y su posterior inclusión tras la sentencia de la Corte Suprema Japonesa de 30 de junio de 2020
Authors: Vilarroig Moya Ramón
Published: July 2021

En el año 2008 se creó en Japón el furusato noozei, que es un mecanismo de crowdfunding que tiene diversas finalidades y objetivos. Por un lado, se pretende que los ciudadanos retornen a su ciudad natal parte de los beneficios que obtuvo por ser beneficiario del gasto público local. Por otra parte, se pretende mejorar la financiación de los entes locales. Asimismo, es un mecanismo que busca fomentar el consumo de producto local y, de esa manera, potenciar la riqueza de los municipios, haciendo atractivo a los ciudadanos permanecer en ellos en lugar de irse a zonas más pobladas. El furusato ha generado diversos problemas de implementación como la entrega de bienes de valor excesivo o de productos que no se fabricaban en el territorio de recepción de la donación. Por esta razón se expulsó a la ciudad de Izumisano del modelo, aunque ésta recurrió y la Corte Suprema Japonesa les dio la razón en la sentencia de 30 de junio de 2020 que es objeto del presente trabajo. Tras la sentencia se volvió a incorporar la ciudad de Izumisano al sistema del furusato noozei.

Editado por Claudia Lira Latuz y Pedro Iacobbelli Delpiano, Memoria y paisaje en el cine japonés de posguerra se une a una ya creciente manifestación de libros dedicados al área de Asia-Japón y su cultura. Este libro colaborativo, escrito por diferentes investigadores e investigadoras del cine y la cultura japonesa, propone un recorrido por una de las épocas más prolíficas del cine japonés, pero a su vez críticas a nivel social. Japón acaba de salir de la Segunda Guerra Mundial como un país derrotado y que necesita superar los traumas heredados de una trágica época. En ese camino de sanación, la memoria y su relación con el paisaje, entendido de manera extensa, van a jugar un papel fundamental en la recuperación de una sociedad que debe volver a reinventarse. El libro propone un repaso histórico y temático hasta el día de hoy vertebrado a través de ambos conceptos.

Authors: Harvelian Agnes
Published: July 2021

Kajian mengenai validitas hukum (geltung) adalah berbicara bagaimana sebuah aturan itu berlaku dalam penyelenggaraan negara dan pemerintahan. Tulisan ini bermaksud ingin mengkaji keberlakuan Peraturan Pemerintah tentang percepatan pembangunan daerah tertinggal yang berbasis pada teori hukum. Penulisan ini mengacu pada jenis penelitian normaif, dengan menggunakan studi kepustakaan, dengan pendekatan perundang-undangan dan pendekatan konsep, serta menggunakan analisis deskripif. Melalui penulisan ini didapatkan bahwa kebijakan pemerintah terkait palaksanaan percepatan pembangunan daerah tertinggal tidak mempunyai landasan yuridis material dalam keberlakuannya, dikarenakan tidak adanya landasan hukum yang tepat untuk berpijak, dan aturan tersebut telah mengesampingkan norma hukum yang lebih tinggi di atasnya, khususnya UU Nomor 39 Tahun 2008. Dengan demikian, disarankan agar setiap pelaksanaan kebijakan ditingkat Peraturan Pemerintah harus diperintahkan oleh Peraturan Perundang-undangan yang tepat dan kedudukannya lebih tinggi atau dibentuk berdasarkan kewenangan yang diatur secara konkrit oleh norma yang lebih tinggi.

Tindak pidanakorporasi dapat pula dikategorikan sebagai kejahatan transnasional yang bersifatterorganisir. Pada masa sekarang ini korporasi sebagai subyek hukum dapatdikenai pidana. Dengan diakomodirnya kedudukan korporasi sebagai subyekhukum pidana umum, menjadikan korporasi dapat dianggap sebagai pelaku tindakpidana seperti manusia sebagai subyek hukum. Berbeda dengan sebelumnya,dimana kedudukan korporasi sebagai subyek hukum pidana hanya diakomodiroleh undang-undang di luar KUHP yang mengatur mengenai delik-delik tertentu.Pengaturan diluar KUHP tersebut menjadikan pengaturan terhadap korporasisebagai subyek hukum pidana dan pertanggungjawaban pidananya berbeda antarasatu peraturan dengan peraturan lainnya.

Design & Development of a Trans Tibial Socket Stabilized by Alternating Areas of Tissue Compression and Release - A Case Study
Authors: Pattnaik Prachi Prava , T Jonathan
Published: July 2021

The socket is the most important aspect of the artificial limb, constituting the critical interface between the amputee’s stump and prosthesis. The design and fitting of the socket is also the most difficult procedure due to the uniqueness of each amputee’s stump. An uncomfortable socket fit is the most common complaint from lower limb amputees with surveys revealing that amputees believe comfort are the most important aspects of the prosthesis and over half of all wearers are in moderate to severe pain for most of the time whilst wearing the prosthesis. Kristinsson argued that a transtibial socket can be designed to transfer loads primarily to limited areas of the limb such as the patella tendon and the medial flare, which in most cases found both ineffective and uncomfortable. There were inconsistencies in producing satisfactory PTB sockets because of inadequate training of prosthetist in the PTB technique. However, the TSB silicon liner socket has problems such as causing excessive perspiration, heating and odor etc. Therefore, a new socket is designed following the principle of alternative pressure and release to overcome the disadvantages and to check the socket with regard to stability, comfort and satisfaction.
Method: A single case study of a person 37-year-old, with transtibial amputation population took part in this study and was selected according to the inclusion criteria. The participant was provided patient information sheet and after taking the informed consent, the assessment and fabrication of the new socket were being proceeded, taking the cast on the first day. On the third day the newly designed socket along with prosthesis was provided with an adaptation period of 7 days. After 7 days the patient was called to check the stability with standing, comfort and satisfaction with a prosthetic socket comfort score.
Results and Discussion: The present socket is well suitable for transtibial patient in weight bearing position. It fits well to the contour of the adult patient. The socket was adjusted manually during rectification phase providing respective pressure in areas required.
Conclusion: The developed socket had a great effect on gait pattern of transtibial amputee. This socket provides adjustment for pressure, anterior, posterior, medial and lateral of the stump. It also creates surface for the placement of bony prominences. As it is a complex casting procedure, proper care should be taken to fabricate the casting of socket with minimal error. Further, innovative inventions will be required to refine more products and extensive study has to be carried out on the existing mode.

Key words: transtibial amputation, transtibial socket, tissue compression and release.

Background: The entire planet is now under significant threat of a terrible CoVid-19 epidemic Because of small clandestine organisms known as viruses. Only 1% of the population has been discovered, leaving the other 95% unexplored. The most difficult aspect of dealing with these minuscule organisms is their unpredictability, as viruses mutate quickly. Poliomyelitis, smallpox, measles, meningitis, and a few other deadly viral and bacterial diseases were successfully eradicated as a result of the immunisation push. The goal of this review article is to look at both the positive and negative aspects of vaccines. In order to improve the production, examine the quality of WHO vaccine recommendations in clinical practise guidelines (CPGs).
Methods: A systematic review of available microbial agent vaccines and pipelines (WHO, 2020) as well as the National Centre for Complementary and Integrative Health's websites was conducted. The US Department of Health and Human Services' Assessment of Guidance, Study, and Evaluation was compared to the Eligible WHO and FDA guidelines providing treatment and/or management recommendations.

Fatigue is an enervating symptom of prolonged dialysis of patients and significantly impacts the health related quality of life of dialysis patients. Reduction of fatigue in dialysis patients is a challenging task for any health care provider. Fatigue develops during long term dialysis usually due to chronic health conditions associated with prolonged dialysis. The contributing factors for fatigue in end stage renal disease (ESRD) patients may be broadly classified into physiological, psychological / behavioural, socio-demographic and dialysis related factors. It is known that some of these factors are modifiable leading to reduction in fatigue. A multidisciplinary health care strategy comprising alternative therapy such as acupressure; mind based therapy such as meditation, deep breathing and yoga; body based therapies such as physical activity, therapeutic exercise, body massage; biological based therapy such as diet and nutrition shall help to reduce the fatigue in dialysis population.
Conclusion: To improve the patient care and health related quality of life in dialysis patients, nurses should develop a framework for decreasing the fatigue. This concept paper describes the various therapies available for reducing the fatigue and discusses the ways of including these supportive and alternative therapies into regular medical care.

Gestalt Cycle: The Resistance of Commerce
Authors: Thomas Anil , Pusalkar Smruti
Published: July 2021

This brief report throws light on the evolution of humans, the various universal emotions that exist like happiness, sadness, disgust, fear, surprise and anger and the biological basis of the human brain, the two different hemispheres, the lobes and the functions that it performs. It is based on the idea that a link exists between human emotions and the needs that an individual desires to have in their life. This explanation surrounding needs and its fulfilment is explained by the means of the Gestalt Cycle that is also known as the Cycle of Experience in Gestalt psychology. In therapy it shows, how there are different stages of fulfilment that an individual has to go through in order to achieve and restore a sense of balance that has been lacking if not it leads to neurotic and psychotic illnesses in a person which can prove to be detrimental to a person’s wellbeing. Gestalt Therapy can help the individual accept these previously suppressed emotions and gain a new sense of self as the awareness increases. Secondary information, researches and data analyses were used to summarize and make the reader understand this report.

Published: July 2021

Abstract: The rapid emergence of versatile new technologies strongly influences the big changes in contemporary society. In this context, people have an important position and role to play as individuals and members of various organizations. This development provides opportunities for well-being but also means big challenges to the existing occupations and working conditions and involves risks to information security and people’s privacy. Also at the same time, human-machine relations have become an interesting topic of discussion. 'Quality Society' is a comprehensive concept that implies a society of high quality, which means a well-functioning and well-developing society that largely satisfies the needs and expectations of all interested parties of the society. Quality Society aims at a holistic perspective to consider societal development in a proactive and human way. This article also discusses, as an example, the East-West Quality Society Initiative (EWQSI), a cross-border collaboration founded and started between Finland and Russia, which consists of the intercultural scientific and artistic entities and lifelong learning to stimulate the sustained societal quality in the conditions of the 4th industrial revolution and smart society. This initiative provides opportunities for open cross-border partnering and takes into account the multidisciplinary interests of practitioners and experts to advance the open science and arts and impact on society.

Dokter Bumiputera Lulusan Stovia dan Kontribusinya dalam Penanganan Wabah Flu Spanyol di Hindia Belanda (1918-1920)
Authors: Nurdianto Saifuddin Alif
Published: July 2021

STOVIA didirikan oleh pemerintah Hindia Belanda pada 1849, yang ketika itu bernama Dokter Djawa School. Semasa STOVIA masih eksis ada satu peristiwa yang cukup menyita perhatian karena besarnya dampak yang ditimbulkan. Peristiwa itu adalah penyebaran wabah flu Spanyol yang menyebabkan 1,5 juta sampai 4,37 juta rakyat Hindia-Belanda meninggal. Pada periode tersebut peran dan kontribusi dari para tenaga medis dibutuhkan oleh segenap rakyat. Para dokter pribumi alumni STOVIA menjadi orang yang merasa paling memiliki tanggung jawab untuk ikut serta menangani pandemi. Penelitian historis dengan pendekatan sosiologis akan digunakan untuk mengkaji kontribusi para dokter pribumi alumni STOVIA dalam penanganan pandemi flu Spanyol di Hindia Belanda. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa kontribusi para dokter ini tidak terbatas dalam bidang medis, tetapi juga dalam bidang sosial, akademik, dan politik.

Authors: Cubillos Cardemil Gastón
Published: July 2021

El secado por deshumidificación comenzó a difundirse a partir de la década del 70 como una alternativa de minimizar los costos de operación de secadores tradicionales, debido al continuo incremento en los precios de los combustibles y a la alta inversión inicial en equipos. En un secador de este tipo todo está concentrado en una sola unidad, en donde se lleva a cabo el calentamiento del aire, la eliminación del agua de la madera al exterior y el control de las variables temperatura y humedad relativa.
Preparación del sitio y fertilización en el establecimiento de plantaciones de Eucalyptus globulus en la zona semiárida de Chile
Authors: Prado José Antonio , Rojas Vergara Patricio
Published: July 2021

En la zona semiárida de Chile, con unos 400 mm de precipitación anual, se probaron diversos tratamientos de preparación del suelo, control de la competencia y fertilización, a fin de determinar su efecto en el establecimiento de plantaciones de Eucalyptus globulus ssp globulus. Los resultados indican que un tratamiento intensivo es fundamental para obtener buena supervivencia y desarrollo de las plantas. Entre los tratamientos de preparación del suelo, el surco es el más efectivo, en tanto que la aplicación de herbicida resultó ser la mejor opción para asegurar la supervivencia y crecimiento inicial de las plantaciones. La fertilización afecta positivamente el desarrollo de las plantas, pero debe aplicarse en conjunto con el herbicida; de no ser así, ejerce un efecto negativo en la supervivencia. Los tratamientos que combinan los tres factores son los que entregan los mejores resultados.
Desarrollo inicial de plantaciones de raulí
Authors: Grosse Werner Hans
Published: July 2021

Durante los últimos años se han establecido algunas plantaciones de raulí (Nothofagus alpina (Poepp. et Endl.) Oerst.) principalmente en el área de Neltume, en la Cordillera de los Andes, a 39º 46' de Latitud Sur. Se trata de un árbol nativo de gran importancia comercial que ha sido explotado sin ser debidamente repuesto. En este estudio se entrega información básica acerca del desarrollo inicial de rodales de esta especie. En los sectores analizados se pueden prever crecimientos anuales de 1 cm en el diámetro (DAP13) y de 1 m de altura durante los 10 primeros años del rodal. Como se trata de material regenerado en condiciones técnicas precarias, estas cifras no reflejan el potencial de crecimiento real de plantaciones de la especie.

Authors: Vidaurre Echeverría Sergio Francisco
Published: July 2021

En el presente artículo se identifican y discuten los principales problemas y necesidades que en la actualidad presenta la industria nacional de la madera aserrada, entregando también conclusiones y recomendaciones generales. El trabajo se elaboró mediante una revisión de la bibliografía pertinente, entrevistas a diversos expertos en la materia y análisis de la información obtenida por profesionales del Instituto Forestal (InFor) a través de encuestas efectuadas a todos los aserraderos del país, con el apoyo de la experiencia recogida en visitas técnicas a algunas plantas representativas. Se aprecia que esta industria presenta problemas importantes que resolver a todo nivel. Dichos problemas se relacionan con materia prima; variables del proceso de producción; uso, mercado y normalización del producto; necesidades de mantención de las herramientas de corte; capacitación de personal y necesidades de maquinaria y equipos. Además, se estima que hay una carencia de investigación básica y aplicada con respecto al aserrío de las especies de interés comercial que crecen en Chile.
Algunos efectos de una potencial restricción a las exportaciones de trozos
Authors: Tardones Sergio
Published: July 2021

Las restricciones a las exportaciones de trozos se visualizan como una medida tendiente a aumentar las exportacines de productos con mayor valor agregado. Sin embargo, se cuestiona la eficiencia de una restricción ya que el fin que persigue puede lograrse sin incurrir en costos, utilizando políticas redistributivas en pequeños y medianos propietarios forestales.
Modelo para evaluar producción de oleorresina
Authors: Alarcón Araya César
Published: July 2021

El simulador "Resina", descrito en este trabajo, permite evaluar técnica y económicamente la viabilidad del proceso de resinación por exudación en plantaciones de Pinus radiata (D. Don). La visualización económica se logra mediante las salidas del simulador. Se pueden analizar en detalle la productividad de la mano de obra, la organización y en especial los costos e ingresos del proceso de resinación para las principales fuentes de variación de costos. Estos son el intervalo de tiempo entre cortes (tiempo entre una incisión y otra) y las características del bosque, dando origen a diferentes casos de resinación.

Alternativas de control de lagomorfos en plantaciones forestales
Authors: Rodríguez Muñoz Jaime
Published: July 2021

Desde el año 1972, para controlar el daño de conejos en plantaciones de Pino Radiata en el país se ha utilizado el Monofluoracetato de Sodio 1080, veneno agudo que posee un amplio especto de acción y que no tiene antídoto. Este producto incluso representa un serio peligro para la fauna doméstica y para la fauna silvestre útil, incluso, para el hombre, ya que se utiliza en cebos muy atractivos como son mermeladas y jaleas. Por aquella razón el Ministerio de Salud prohibió el uso de "1080" , haciéndose necesario en la actualidad, estudiar alternativas de control del daño, que anualmente conejo y liebres en las distintas planciones de país.

La sobrevivencia fue de un 80% a 90% en la situación con 13 m²/ha de AB, del 0% bajo la situación extrema con 69 m²/ha de AB y del 40% a 65% en la situación sin árboles para Raulí y Roble respectivamente.
Análisis del proceso de maceración para el pino radiata
Authors: Melo H. Roberto
Published: July 2021

El objetivo del presente trabajo es la determinación de tiempos de absorción de calor, propios de la especie Pino Radiata, para trozas sometidas a un proceso de maceración previa al debobinado. Se utiliza agua como medio de calefacción. Los resultados indican que los tiempos de calentamiento para distintas temperaturas del fluido de calefacción de los diferentes diámetros, son reducidos, no excediendo las 23 horas para ninguno de los casos analizados. Se establece que la única variable que contribuye a explicar estadísticamente las variaciones de la temperatura en la madera, es el diámetro de la troza. Se determina finalmente modelos de regresión, los cuales permiten calcular temperaturas interiores en la troza para distintos elementos en función del tiempo de maceración.

El sector forestal chileno: políticas, desarrollo del recurso y exportaciones
Authors: Wisecarver Daniel , Tardones Sergio
Published: July 2021

El siguiente artículo analiza el rol que ha tenido la política económica en el surgimiento del sector forestal chileno como una de las fuentes líderes del crecimiento económico. Se consideran en forma separada las políticas específicas del sector y las políticas económicas generales. Las primeras, diseñadas para promover la creación del recurso forestal a través de estímulos fiscales para la plantación y manejo del mismo, han demostrado ser efectivas y muy superiores a las existentes con anterioridad. Sin embargo, la producción y exportación de productos forestales en niveles significativos no está garantizada por la sola presencia del recurso forestal. La gran expansión en la producción y exportación de estos productos, desde 1974 al presente, es atribuible al conjunto de políticas económicas generales, en especial la apertura de la economía chilena al comercio internacional.
