Resume: Cet article interroge le statut épistémique d’une proposition révélée. A partir d’une recherche définitionnelle de ce qui constitue une révélation, mais sans proposer d’enquête systématique sur les conceptions de la révélation chez divers auteurs, on essaie de montrer que la création (au sens de la dépendance de l’existence du monde à l’égard d’un agent surnaturel généralement nommé dieu) ne saurait être une vérité exclusivement révélable (revelabile tantum), mais qu’elle constitue au contraire un préambule indispensable pour toute révélation.D’un point de vue ontologique, aucune révélation n’est susceptible de se produire dans un monde incréé. La création est une condition nécessaire de la révélation. Epistémiquement, une révélation ne peut être acceptée de façon justifiée que par qui a déjà admis que le monde dépend, quant à son existence et à son fonctionnement, d’un agent surnaturel. A moins d’admeVre l’intervention d’un pouvoir créateur, on ne saurait être fondé à identifier quelque révélation surnaturelle que ce soit. Une affirmation cosmogonique doit donc servir de préambule à toute révélation reconnue comme telle.Resumo: Este artigo interroga o estatuto epistêmico de uma proposição revelada. A partir de uma investigação definitória daquilo que constitui uma revelação, mas sem propor um levantamento sistemático das concepções de revelação de diversos autores, tenta-se mostrar que a criação (no sentido de dependência da existência do mundo de um agente sobrenatural geralmente chamado deus) não é uma verdade exclusivamente revelável (revelabile tantum), mas que ela constitui, pelo contrário, um preâmbulo indispensável para qualquer revelação.De um ponto de vista ontológico, nenhuma revelação é susceptível de acontecer em um mundo incriado. A criação é uma condição necessária da revelação. Epistemicamente, uma revelação não pode ser aceita de maneira justificada senão por quem já admite que o mundo depende, quanto a sua existência e a seu funcionamento, de um agente sobrenatural. A não ser que se admita a intervenção de um poder criador, não se poderia identificar justificadamente uma revelação sobrenatural qualquer que seja. Uma afirmação cosmogônica deve pois servir de preâmbulo a qualquer revelação reconhecida como tal.

Authors: Vargas Esteban , Echeverri Fernando , Upegui Yulieth A. , Robledo Sara M. , Quiñones Wiston
Published: January 2018

Cutaneous leishmaniasis (CL) is a neglected tropical disease, which causes severe skin lesions. Due to the lack of effective vaccines, and toxicity or reduced effectiveness of available drugs in addition to complex and prolonged treatments, there is an urgent need to develop alternatives for the treatment for CL with different mechanisms of action. In our effort to search for new promising hits against Leishmania parasites we prepared 18 acyl hydrazone derivatives of thiochroman-4-ones. Compounds were evaluated for their in vitro antileishmanial activity against the intracellular amastigote form of Leishmania panamensis and cytotoxic activity against human monocytes (U-937 ATCC CRL-1593.2). Our results show that derivatization of the thiochroman-4-ones with acyl hydrazones significantly enhances the antileishmanial activity. Among the compounds tested semicarbazone and thiosemicarbazone derivatives of thioflavanone 19 and 20 displayed the highest antileishmanial activities, with EC50 values of 5.4 and 5.1 µM and low cytotoxicities (100.2 and 50.1 µM respectively), resulting in higher indexes of selectivity (IS).
Water-Use and Conservation in the Commercial Vehicle Washing Industry in Urban Ghana: The Case of Cape Coast Metropolis
Authors: Quayson J. N. , Awere E.
Published: January 2018

Commercial vehicle washing businesses have gained popularity in urban Ghana. Most vehicle washing bays operating in the Cape Coast Metropolis rely on Ghana Water Company Limited (GWCL) for their water supply. With increasing vehicular numbers, the pressure on the limited safe water quantities is likely to increase. There is the need to regulate the operations of the commercial vehicle washing industry to ensure water conservation and its associated environmental and social impacts. This study is aimed at assess the water-use and conservation strategies in the commercial vehicle washing industry in the Cape Coast Metropolis. The study focused on all the sixteen (16) commercial vehicle washing bays in the Cape Coast metropolis which are registered with and certified by the Metropolitan Assembly and are also members of the Vehicle Washing Bay Operators Association, Cape Coast Branch. Data was collected through the use of pre-tested questionnaire and interview guide as well as personal observation and measurement. A total of Thirty-two (32) questionnaires were distributed to the General Managers and Operation Managers of all the 16 washing bays in the metropolis. In addition, officials of Cape Coast Metropolitan Assembly (CCMA) and Central Regional office of Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) were interviewed. Trained Research Assistants were assigned to each vehicle washing bay for one week including Saturdays and Sundays to count the number of vehicles washed daily and the quantity of water used for washing. The study revealed that the most common technique used by the washing bays is the manual and semi-automatic washing process. On the average, the quantity of water required for washing vehicles ranges between 162.0 litres for saloon vehicles and 532.0 litres for tipper trucks. A minimum of 96 vehicles are washed daily utilizing approximately 19,346.00 litres (19.346 m3) of water. There are no water efficiency and wastewater reclamation regulations in place for the vehicle washing industry. It is concluded that the existing commercial vehicle washing facilities in use does not ensure efficient water use and conservation.

Published: January 2018

In this era of a data-driven society, useful data (Big Data) is often unintentionally ignored due to lack of convenient tools and expensive software. For example, web log files can be used to identify explicit information of browsing patterns when users access web sites. Some hidden information, however, cannot be directly derived from the log files. We may need external resources to discover more knowledge from browsing patterns. The purpose of this study is to investigate the application of web usage mining based on web log files. The outcome of this study sets further directions of this investigation on what and how implicit information embedded in log files can be efficiently and effectively extracted. Further work involves combining the use of social media data to improve business decision quality.

Published: January 2018

A Soil and Water Assessment Tool (SWAT) model was used to model streamflow in a tropical humid basin in the Cerrado biome, southeastern Brazil. This study was undertaken in the Upper São Francisco River basin, because this basin requires effective management of water resources in drought and high-flow periods. The SWAT model was calibrated for the period of 1978–1998 and validated for 1999–2007. To assess the model calibration and uncertainty, four indices were used: (a) coefficient of determination (R2); (b) Nash–Sutcliffe efficiency (NS); (c) p-factor, the percentage of data bracketed by the 95% prediction uncertainty (95PPU); and (d) r-factor, the ratio of average thickness of the 95PPU band to the standard deviation of the corresponding measured variable. In this paper, average monthly streamflow from three gauges (Porto das Andorinhas, Pari and Ponte da Taquara) were used. The results indicated that the R2 values were 0.73, 0.80 and 0.76 and that the NS values were 0.68, 0.79 and 0.73, respectively, during the calibration. The validation also indicated an acceptable performance with R2 = 0.80, 0.76, 0.60 and NS = 0.61, 0.64 and 0.58, respectively. This study demonstrates that the SWAT model provides a satisfactory tool to assess basin streamflow and management in Brazil.

Published: January 2018

Countercurrent–cocurrent dissolved air flotation (CCDAF), the popular water purification device, which consists of collision and adhesion contact zones, showed favorable flotation conditions for micro-bubble adhesion and stability. In this study, computational fluid dynamics (CFD) numerical simulation was employed to confirm that the unique CCDAF configuration create reasonable and that the flow field characteristics were good no matter for single phase or gas–liquid two-phase conditions. In addition, the turbulence of the flow field was enhanced with the increasing influent load; the swirling was remarkably reduced with the increase of gas holdup. Meanwhile, a thick micro-bubble filter layer was formed in the separation zone, which favored bubble-flocs agglomerating and rising. The force analysis also showed that the cross section within the tank contribute to the uniformity of the bottom water collection as well as enlargement of the bottom outflow area, therefore improving the overall flotation performance. The simulation results revealed for the CCDAF process can provide technical guidance for engineering design and application.

Authors: Quarleri Lía
Published: January 2018

El objetivo del artículo es analizar el modelo mercantil de intervención borbónica en las reducciones guaraníes atendiendo a las adaptaciones, respuestas y conflictos derivados. La metodología utilizada es el análisis de fuentes históricas desde una perspectiva antropológica. En primer lugar, se esclarecieron  las directrices borbónicas del libre comercio en las misiones guaraníes. En segundo lugar, se plasmaron las controversias existentes entre las autoridades coloniales. Por último, se dieron indicios de la participación indígena en dicho comercio. Las limitaciones estuvieron dadas por el sesgo de las propias fuentes oficiales.  El valor del estudio reside en la realización de un análisis articulado a partir de las normativas, los conflictos y la agencia indígena. Se llegó a la conclusión de que la intermediación política configurada para obstruir el libre acceso de la población misionera al nuevo sistema mercantil  generó un proceso contrario. Asimismo, que este proceso se dio dentro de un poder colonial fragmentado.

Authors: Baioun Abeer , Kellawi Hassan , Falah Ahamed
Published: January 2018

Background:

Demands of rechargeable energy storage devices such as batteries are increasing.
Potassium is cheap and abundant contrary to Li. Prussian blue and analogues PBAs are
promising cathodes materials for K- ion batteries, because of facile synthesis and low cost. However,
PB and close analogues (Prussian green and Prussian white) suffer from low coulombic efficiency
and low cyclability owing to structure deficiency. We present here a facile synthesis dip-dry method
at elevated temperature of Prussian yellow film cathode for aqueous potassium battery with Zn anode.
The device exhibits a high specific capacity, coulombic efficiency and long cycling life with
satisfactory charge/discharge behavior.

Method:

Prussian yellow(PY) film was prepared as a thin film on ITO substrate by dip dry method
from a solution mixture of Fe3+ (0.1M) and Fe(CN)-6 (0.1M) at (80°C). Precipitation time was fifteen
minutes. Films where characterization by FTIR, TGA, XRD, EDS, SEM, CV and EIS. Batteries
composed of PY cathode and zinc metal anode were tested in 0.1M KCl electrolyte.

Results:

Battery gave OCV 1.9V with specific capacity of 142 mAh/g at rate of (~ 3C), with satisfactorily
cycling ability up to 500 cycles & reversible charge/discharge behavior. Good crystal structure
of PY film was demonstrated by several characterization methods e.g., FT-IR, TGA, XRD, EDS,
SEM and electrochemical techniques. All showed good crystallinity quality of prepared PY films
which demonstrate cathode qualities K cathode for K charge / discharge battery.

Conclusion:

Prussian yellow film, one of Prussian blue close analogues prepared in a simple and
very facile nonelectrical method can be used as a robust cathode with highly reversible redox reactions
that enable this material to be used as a cathode in battery of potassium aqueous electrolyte
with Zinc anode. Battery has a significant cycle life (~500 cycle) and satisfactory capacity of
142mAhg-1 at rate of (~3C) with efficiency retention of 82%.

Authors: Agustina Imas , Beilin Ruth
Published: January 2018

Investigation approach to migrants' adaptation process in host countries has always been placed specific, in order to understand the whole connections to all aspects of life. In Melbourne, community gardens have been a place where immigrants start their interaction with others. The literature argues that the gardens can foster social inclusion, while at the same time providing space to preserve their cultural identity. This paper will investigate the adaptation of migrants within the garden setting, by considering the extent to which cultural practices in gardening affect their ability to adapt to the host country (Australia). The findings confirm a complex relationship between historical garden practices/culture and the reality of practices in community gardens.

The research is to disclose economic behaviour and activities in spatial terms. The findings suggest that they are convoluted both in kinds and may embed within the formal one.
Realising the Public Potential of Corporate Law: Twenty Years of Civil Penalty Enforcement in Australia
Authors: Welsh Michelle
Published: January 2018

Traditionally corporate law has been viewed as having characteristics that are commonly associated with private law. Largely this view developed as a result of the “law and economics” scholarship which dominated the corporate law debate, especially in the United States, in the last quarter of last Century. While the traditional “law and economics” approach supports the view that corporate law should be treated as a branch of private law, and that the state should have no role in its enforcement, other scholars, particularly those that adopt a progressive approach, argue that corporate law has, and should be recognised as having characteristics that are usually associated with public law. Arguably, an area of Australian corporate law that displays characteristics that are usually associated with public law is the statutory directors’ duties and the civil penalty regime that supports them. This enforcement regime gives the state through the corporate regulator, standing to take court based proceedings to enforce what are in effect, contracts that established corporate governance structures.

This article seeks to determine the appropriate role of a public regulator in these circumstances. The questions considered are: whose interests should the public regulator represent when it is tasked with the responsibility of enforcing the statutory directors’ duties that largely codify fiduciary and common law duties? Given that the duties are owed by directors to their company should the primary role of the public regulator be to represent the interests of the company, and its shareholders, who have suffered a loss as a result of the alleged contravention of the directors’ duties or should the primary role of the public regulator be to act in the interests of the members of the larger community? In these situations what are the interests of the larger community? Drawing on regulatory theory the argument advanced in this paper is that despite the fact that the statutory directors’ duties codify what are in effect private rights between directors and their companies, the primary role of a public regulator is not to utilise the enforcement mechanisms at its disposal in order to obtain compensation for companies who have suffered a loss. Rather, the regulator's primary role is to act in the interests of the larger community by utilising the enforcement mechanisms at its disposal strategically in order to encourage greater compliance.
Animal Welfare and the WTO: The Legality and Implications of Live Export Restrictions under International Trade Law
Authors: Chaudhri Radhika
Published: January 2018

In Australia, controversial incidents regarding the treatment of live animals exported from Australia spark regular debate on whether the live export trade should be banned or more tightly regulated. Government responses to public outcry often take the form of restrictions on the trade of the animals concerned, but the legality of unilateral measures of this kind is yet to be directly considered by the World Trade Organization's Appellate Body. This article examines the legality of imposing restrictions on live export under the international trade law regime set up by the General Agreement on Tariffs and Trade 1994 (‘GATT’), and in particular, whether such measures could be justified under Article XX. In exploring this question, special attention is given to the Australian government's new regulatory framework, as introduced by the Export Control (Animals) Amendment Order 2012 (No 1), which imposes an exporter supply chain assurance obligation on Australian suppliers. In addition, in light of the continued calls from animal welfare groups to ban the trade entirely, the legality of a complete moratorium on live exports will also be considered. Although the exceptions in Articles XX(b) and XX(g) of the GATT appear to be relevant to live exports, ultimately any regulation might be best supported under the ‘public morals’ exception in Article XX(a). However, care will need to be taken in the design of any restriction to avoid breaching the strict chapeau requirements of Article XX.

Background and objectives

CKD is characterized by remarkably high hospitalization and readmission rates. Our study aim was to test a medication therapy management intervention to reduce subsequent acute care utilization.

Design, setting, participants, & measurements

The CKD Medication Intervention Trial was a single-blind (investigators), randomized clinical trial conducted at Providence Health Care in Spokane, Washington. Patients with CKD stages 3–5 not treated by dialysis who were hospitalized for acute illness were recruited. The intervention was designed to improve posthospitalization care by medication therapy management. A pharmacist delivered the intervention as a single home visit within 7 days of discharge. The intervention included these fundamental elements: comprehensive medication review, medication action plan, and a personal medication list. The primary outcome was a composite of acute care utilization (hospital readmissions and emergency department and urgent care visits) for 90 days after hospitalization.

Baseline characteristics of participants (n=141) included the following: age, 69±11 (mean±SD) years old; women, 48% (67 of 141); diabetes, 56% (79 of 141); hypertension, 83% (117 of 141); eGFR, 41±14 ml/min per 1.73 m2 (serum creatinine–based Chronic Kidney Disease Epidemiology Collaboration equation); and urine albumin-to-creatinine ratio median, 43 mg/g (interquartile range, 8–528) creatinine. The most common primary diagnoses for hospitalization were the following: cardiovascular events, 36% (51 of 141); infections, 18% (26 of 141); and kidney diseases, 12% (17 of 141). The primary outcome occurred in 32 of 72 (44%) of the medication intervention group and 28 of 69 (41%) of those in usual care (log rank P=0.72). For only hospital readmission, the rate was 19 of 72 (26%) in the medication intervention group and 18 of 69 (26%) in the usual care group (log rank P=0.95). There was no between-group difference in achievement of guideline-based goals for use of renin-angiotensin system inhibition or for BP, hemoglobin, phosphorus, or parathyroid hormone.

Conclusions

Acute care utilization after hospitalization was not reduced by a pharmacist-led medication therapy management intervention at the transition from hospital to home.
A referência linguística na atenção conjunta
Authors: Costa Filho José Moacir Soares da
Published: January 2018

O objetivo deste artigo é discutir a relação entre a atenção conjunta e a referência linguística. Para tanto, analisamos qualitativamente dados coletados com vinte crianças de 2 a 5 anos de idade enquanto elas jogavam um aplicativo para tablets. Nossa análise inicialmente tem como suporte teórico as contribuições de Bruner (1975) e Tomasello (2003) acerca da atenção conjunta. Em seguida, trazemos Diessel (2006) e Costa Filho (2011, 2013 e 2016) para discutir a importância da atenção conjunta durante o processo de consolidação da referência linguística para a criança. Após a análise dos dados, encontramos três tipos de atenção conjunta: atual, composicional e virtual, por meio das quais pudemos perceber que a atenção conjunta e o processo de referência linguística são interdependentes, já que é por meio das noções de referência linguística que os sujeitos da interação se engajam nas cenas de atenção conjunta.
Entre paráfrase e polissemia: a movência dos sentidos e dos sujeitos em “saímos do Facebook”
Authors: Silva Rodrigo De Santana , Bressanin Joelma Aparecida , Silva Giseli Veronêz da
Published: January 2018

Temos como objetivo, neste estudo, compreender os efeitos de sentido produzidos pelo enunciado Saímos do Facebook, exposto em um cartaz nas manifestações de junho de 2013 no Brasil, a partir da sua textualidade, ou seja, estabelecendo uma relação com o mesmo enunciado expresso em um cartaz no manifesto popular ocorrido anteriormente no Oriente Médio em 2010. Desse modo, pretendemos dar visibilidade ao trabalho da memória e da ruptura de sujeitos e de sentidos, isto é, aos movimentos parafrásticos e polissêmicos que se fundam sob essas diferentes conjunturas. Inserimos nosso gesto de interpretação no espaço teórico possibilitado pela Análise de Discurso (AD) de cunho materialista, que tem como representantes Michel Pêcheux, na França, e Eni Orlandi, no Brasil. Dessa forma, como resultados desse trabalho podemos concluir que o enunciado analisado produz um efeito de reinterpretação, uma retomada de outro dizer, que se modifica, faz da memória e do esquecido o novo que é, também, passível de mudanças.
Vocalização da lateral /l/: um estudo acerca da sua manifestação nas séries iniciais em sujeitos do ensino particular
Authors: Silva André Pedro da , Galindo Yasmin Maria Macedo Torres
Published: January 2018

O presente trabalho preocupar-se-á em explicar e catalogar o fenômeno encontrado na escrita da vocalização da lateral /l/ quando transformada em glide /w/ e expressa ortograficamente como vogal alta u, em posição de coda final e medial. No português do Brasil, esse fenômeno acontece de maneira vasta, principalmente nos primeiros anos de letramento de um indivíduo. Esse processo deve-se tanto aos fatores internos, tais como: contexto fonológico anterior e posição na palavra, quanto por fatores externos, como faixa etária e nível de escolaridade. O presente trabalho se debruçará sobre dados recolhidos na cidade de Jaboatão dos Guararapes-PE (unidade residencial 6, bairro do Ibura), no Colégio e Curso João Paulo I, de ensino particular. Provamos aqui, apoiando-nos no método quantitativo-comparativo, a proposta norteadora de nossa pesquisa: em séries iniciais, os dados de escrita estão mais próximos da fala e na medida em que se dá o letramento, com o aumento da escolarização, tende a se afastar desta (cf. MORAIS, 2003, 2007; MASSINI-CAGLIARI; CAGLIARI, 2008; MARCUSCHI, 2005; FARACO, 2012; ZILLES; FARACO, 2015).
Gêneros textuais em livros didáticos de história: enfoque na diversidade de textos verbais
Authors: Seal Ana Gabriela de Souza
Published: January 2018

Buscamos investigar, no tocante ao ensino de História, quais gêneros textuais foram inseridos em duas coleções de livros didáticos, com o propósito de entendermos quais esferas sociais foram priorizadas. Orientamo-nos pela proposta de agrupamento dos gêneros textuais a partir de cinco ordens: narrar, relatar, descrever ações, expor e argumentar. Percebemos um esforço da coleção em atender ao Programa Nacional do Livro Didático e à Proposta Curricular Nacional, ambas de História, no que concerne à variedade textual e à multimodalidade de gêneros. No entanto, a quantidade dos demais gêneros frente aos textos didáticos, legendas e àqueles referentes às propostas de atividades foram ínfimos. Consideramos indispensável discutir mais profundamente sobre a importância da diversidade textual nos livros de História e sobre os papéis que desempenham para o ensino de capacidades fundamentais à construção dos conhecimentos nessa área do saber.
The Perceived Value of Acquiring Data Seals of Approval
Authors: Donaldson Devan Ray , Dillo Ingrid , Downs Robert , Ramdeen Sarah
Published: January 2018

The Data Seal of Approval (DSA) is one of the most widely used standards for Trusted Digital Repositories to date. Those who developed this standard have articulated seven main benefits of acquiring DSAs: 1) stakeholder confidence, 2) improvements in communication, 3) improvement in processes, 4) transparency, 5) differentiation from others, 6) awareness raising about digital preservation, and 7) less labor- and time-intensive. Little research has focused on if and how those who have acquired DSAs actually perceive these benefits. Consequently, this study examines the benefits of acquiring DSAs from the point of view of those who have them. In a series of 15 semi-structured interviews with representatives from 16 different organizations, participants described the benefits of having DSAs in their own words. Our findings suggest that participants experience all of the seven benefits that those who developed the standard promised. Additionally, our findings reflect the greater importance of some of those benefits compared to others. For example, participants mentioned the benefits of stakeholder confidence, transparency, improvement in processes and awareness raising about digital preservation more frequently than they discussed less labor- and time-intensive (e.g. it being less labor- and time-intensive to acquire DSAs than becoming certified by other standards), improvements in communication, and differentiation from others. Participants also mentioned two additional benefits of acquiring DSAs that are not explicitly listed on the DSA website that were very important to them: 1) the impact of acquiring the DSA on documentation of their workflows, and 2) assurance that they were following best practice. Implications and future directions for research are discussed.
Curation After the Fact: Practical and Ethical Challenges of Archiving Legacy Evaluation Data
Authors: Geraghty Ruth
Published: January 2018

Over a 12-year period, the Atlantic Philanthropies invested more than â‚¬127m in agencies and community groups, running 52 prevention and early intervention (PEI) programmes and services in the children and youth sector throughout Ireland. As a condition of this funding, each PEI programme was evaluated by a university-based research team, resulting in a substantial collection of metric and qualitative information about ways to improve the lives of vulnerable Irish families. In 2016, the Atlantic Philanthropies funded the Prevention and Early Intervention Research Initiative at the Children’s Research Network of Ireland and Northern Ireland (hereafter, the Initiative) to gather, prepare and share this evaluation data through the public data archives.
The Initiative faces several challenges in its objective to archive this extensive collection of legacy data, and this paper will present two of the more salient challenges: how to share this data so that it is both (1) meaningful and (2) ethical. The paper pays particular attention to the challenges of safely sharing evaluation data through anonymisation and restricted access conditions; and also, the practical and ethical challenges of retroactively preparing these datasets for the archive.
A series of publicly available documents that guide each stage of the Initiative are in development, and are emerging as a key output. This paper will describe two pivotal documents, namely the CRN-PEI Guiding Principles, and the CRN-PEI Protocols for preparing and archiving evaluation data. The CRN-PEI Guiding Principles outline the key legal and ethical obligations of archiving this legacy evaluation data, and act as moral compass to steer our progress through these uncharted waters. The CRN-PEI Protocols define the standards for how data included in the Initiative is prepared for deposition in the public data archives, so they are easily located, interpretable and comparable in the long term. This protocol is based upon best practice documentation from a number of international sources and our primary aim is to generate ‘safe, useful data’ (Elliot at al., 2016).
