Challenges lie ahead for MTS in the Aotearoa public sphere
Authors: Paul Joanna
Published: February 2020

Mo ratou, ma matou, ma koutou, ma tatouFor them, for us, for everyone

As the Māori Television Service (MTS) celebrates its first year on air, it is easy to forget the long and at times painful struggle to get there, the aspirations of those who have worked in, consulted, wrote, and protested their way through the various incarnations of Māori broadcasting. The incarnations include Māori programming on mainstream television, Aotearoa Television, the Electoral College, Te Manu Aute, Nga Aho Whakaari, MTS legislation and the exhaustive process of building a new channel for all New Zealanders. We pay homage to those who have gone before and their passion to see Māori Television for and by Māori, to hear our Reo, tell our stories and to bring our way of life to all New Zealanders.
REVIEW: The veneer is radical, but the substance is not.
Authors: Poata-Smith Evan Te Ahu
Published: February 2020

Review of Ka Whawhai Tonu Matou Struggle Without End (Revised Edition), by Ranginui WalkerKa Whawhai Tonu Matou represented a challenge to the more sanitised versions of history that tended to present New Zealand as a harmonious and progressive nation in a world otherwise characterised by incessant ethnic conflict, racism and division. This romanticism, originally encapsualted in Hobson's decree at the signing of the Treaty of Waitangi that New Zealand was 'one nation, one people', had become firmly entrenched in the conciousness of many New Zealanders.
Diversity, but gaps in how media can achieve MDGs
Authors: Harris Usha Sundar
Published: February 2020

The 2008 AMIC conference theme, Changing Media, Changing Societies, Media and the Millennium Development Goals, also the title of this publication, highlighted the role of media in this development process,  as the editors, Banerjee and Muppidi, point out: In our globalised world, the media is more than just a watchdog. Around the world, in every society, they play important roles including creating awareness, disseminating the relevant messages at various stages of the development process, providing channels of communication between various stakeholders, and ensuring transparency in this global effort of the UN to achieve its millennium development goals (p.3).
EDITORIAL: Introducing PJR
Authors: Robie David
Published: February 2020

Journalism and related information and mass communication issues have a dearth of outlets in the South Pacific. While the region's news media has developed technically in leaps in bounds in the last decade and journalistic standards have risen, the region's information profile remains much the same. The major daily newspapers remain dominated by foreign ownership — the newest daily, The National in Papua New Guinea, is Malaysian-owned — and television/radio remains, in spite of the increasing number of privately owned FM broadcasters, in the hands of the state or, in the case of PNG's EMTV, an Australian television network.

A photographer's date with a nuclear death
Authors: Robie David
Published: February 2020

President Jacques Chirac's controversial final round of nuclear tests at Moruroa and Fangataufa atolls in 1995 unleashed an unprecedented storm of international protest. And dilemmas for journalists covering the riots in Papeete and the junkets by French authorities. The Vanuatu government banned news reports on protests. A journalist on board the original environmental campaign ship Rainbow Warrior -- bombed by French secret agents a decade ago -- recalls the events. He was later arrested by the French military.
REVIEW: The challenge and encounters of journalism
Authors: Miva Peter
Published: February 2020

Review of Pacific Journalism Review 1(1), edited by David Robie and Tande Temane. Port Moresby: South Pacific Centre for Communication and Development.

The challenges and encounters of journalism in the South Pacific have been seasonal, under scrutiny and threats, confrontations, legislation, criticism and praise— all inflicted on the profession. Little is documented to give readers different views about the media's role, and some of the basic characteristics about one of the most tiring and enjoyable tasks, being a journalist.
REVIEW: Vibrant, stimulating view of region's nationalism, media
Authors: Robson Alan
Published: February 2020

Review of: Blood on their Banner: Nationalist Struggles in the South Pacific, by David Robie. London, Zed Books, 1989; Sydney: Pluto Press, 1990; Manila: Malaya Books, 1991.

Events in recent years in the South Pacific have dispelled hitherto widely held perceptions of the region as a peacefully modernising backwater of traditional societies. In particular, the 1987 coups in Fiji galvanised the attention of politicians and academics. But in truth, this was just one of a series of crises besetting South Pacific island states. David Robie's Blood on their Banner goes beyond the many accounts focusing on the Fiji coups to link together a range of events under the rubric of responses to colonialism and the emergence of Pacific nationalism. His credentials for doing this are excellent.

Tampering with freedom
Authors: The Independent
Published: February 2020

"Today is the beginning of a seminar in Port Moresby which will look at media freedom and accountability, to determine whether changes need to be made to ensure that, while freedom of the press is maintained, owners, editors, and journalists of all elements of the media are accountable and that persons aggrieved by media abuses have accessible redress. Is there a real justification for this move? Can the people of this country be guaranteed that such a move will not deviate from its original intention?"

In March 1995, the United States government issued a patent on a human cell line for an indigenous Hagahai man from the rainforests of Papua New Guinea. The US National Institutes of Health (NIH) were issued patent No. 5,397,696 by the Patent and Trademark Office (PTO), the first time that an indigenous person's cells have been patented. Critics saw this is a 'new and dangerous' era in intellectual property rights while even defenders conceded there are serious dilemmas embracing ethics, the law and the media.

One of the biggest concerns about Papua New Guinean writing over the years has been the ability by prominent authors to have some form of consistency.

REVIEW: From a Suva gossip column to Fleet Street
Authors: Cass Philip
Published: February 2020

Review of A Hack's Progress, by Phillip Knightley. London: Vintage.

Knightley's book is self critical, especially about the value of his writing on the intelligence service during the Cold War and he refers to himself as "the world's worst war correspondent" for assuring his editor at the Sunday Times that there would be no war in the Middle East — on the eve of the Six Day War. For a journalist who has achieved so much prominence for his work as an investigative journalist for the quality British press and his subsequent books, Knightley appears to have been singularly uncertain about what he wanted to do for a living.

In the implementation of construction projects, there are several important elements that must be done well. so that the essential elements can be carried out well, then agreement regarding certain matters is agreed upon by the parties concerned which is called contract. Almost construction projects in Indonesia have experienced contract changes or can be called Change Order. Change Order is an event due to changes in a job that results in changes in time and cost during implementation. To solve the problem of Change order this contract can be finalized and anticipated by knowing the factors causing it in advance. The causal factors are arranged into a questionnaire to find out the main causes of Change Order. The questionnaire was distributed to contractors on the road project. Validity and reliability testing is done on the data obtained from the results of the questionnaire to obtain the consistency and stability of each question in the questionnaire. Valid and reliable question items are further analyzed using the RII method. To find out the main cause, the data is calculated using the RII. The results of the RII ranking technique show that the order acceleration schedule is the main cause of Change Order. AbstrakDalam pelaksanaan proyek konstruksi, terdapat beberapa unsur penting yang harus dilakukan dengan baik. agar unsur unsur penting dapat terlaksana dengan baik maka dibuatlah perjanjian/ kesepakatan antara dua orang atau lebih mengenai hal tertentu yang disetujui oleh pihak pihak yang bersangkutan yang terikat yang disebut kontrak. Hampir seluruh proyek konstruksi di Indonesia mengalami terjadinya perubahan kontrak atau dapat disebut Change Order. Change Order merupakan suatu kejadian akibat perubahan suatu pekerjaan yang mengakibatkan perubahan waktu dan biaya saat pelaksanaan. Untuk mengatasi masalah Change order/ addendum kontrak ini dapat diminalisir dan diantisipasi dengan mengetahui faktor penyebabnya terlebih dahulu. Faktor-faktor penyebab tersebut disusun menjadi sebuah kuesioner untuk mengetahui penyebab utama dari Change Order. Penyebaran kuesioner tersebut dilakukan terhadap kontraktor pada proyek jalan. Pengujian uji validitas dan uji reliabilitas dilakukan terhadap data yang diperoleh dari hasil kuesioner untuk memperoleh keakuratan konsistensi dan kestabilan setiap pertanyaan dalam kuesioner. Butir pertanyaan yang valid dan reliabel dianalisis lebih lanjut menggunakan metode RII. Untuk mengetahui penyebab utama, data dihitung menggunakan teknik ranking RII (Relative Importance Index). Hasil dari teknik ranking RII menunjukan bahwa perintah percepatan jadwal merupakan faktor penyebab utama terjadinya Change Order.
DAMPAK CHANGE ORDER PADA PROYEK PERKERASAN JALAN
Authors: Junius Alexander , Waty Mega
Published: February 2020

In a construction project, changes during the construction period are common. This change can be in the form of an increase or decrease in volume and type of work, changes in work specifications, or changes in the schedule for implementation. Changes in projects are often known as change orders. Change orders must be approved by all parties in a project namely, contractors, owners, and consultants. Change orders are caused by several factors such as changes in design, delays in procurement of goods, differences in field conditions, and others. The impact of this change order is felt by all parties involved in a project, but the change order has a different impact on each party involved. This study aims to determine the biggest impact of change orders from the contractor. In the questionnaire submitted the impact of change order is divided into several variables namely, the cost of quality, time, organization, and others. From the responses of respondents regarding the impact of change orders on road construction projects, an analysis was performed with the calculation of the Relative Importance Index (RII), and the biggest impact was obtained. Before the data is processed with RII, the validity and reliability tests are performed first. The biggest impact of change orders caused by change orders is that change orders increase the budget for contractors, change orders increase overhead costs, increase project duration, cause project costs overruns, and change orders cause a decrease in project profits. AbstrakPada suatu proyek konstruksi, perubahan selama masa konstruksi merupakan hal yang umum terjadi. Perubahan ini bisa berupa penambahan atau pengurangan volume dan jenis pekerjaan, perubahan spesifikasi pekerjaan, maupun perubahan jadwal pelakasnaan. Perubahan dalam proyek sering dikenal change order. Change order harus disetujui oleh semua pihak yang ada dalam suatu proyek, yaitu kontraktor, pemilik, dan konsultan. Change order disebabkan oleh beberapa faktor seperti perubahan desain, keterlambatan pengadaan barang, perbedaan kondisi lapangan, dan lain-lain. Dampak dari change order ini dirasakan seluruh pihak yang terlibat dalam suatu proyek, namun change order menimbulkan dampak yang berbeda pada tiap pihak yang terlibat. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengetahui dampak change order terbesar dari pihak kontraktor. Dalam kuesioner yang diajukan dampak change order dibagi menjadi beberapa variabel yaitu, biaya mutu, waktu, organisasi, dan lainnya. Dari hasil tanggapan responden mengenai dampak change order pada proyek konstruksi jalan, dilakukan analisis dengan perhitungan Relative Importance Index (RII), dan didapat dampak terbesar. Sebelum data diolah dengan RII dilakukan uji validitas dan uji reliabilitas terlebih dahulu.

Student affairs professionals have a responsibility for the professional development of graduate assistants (Gas) in the department as these positions are marketed as first professional positions. While prior literature has addressed the transition of graduate students into graduate school, there is little about the transition process for students with graduate assistantships in student affairs. Student transitions are important as they may set the tone for their first professional experience and ongoing professional development. Four key themes emerged from the voices of the graduate student participants in this study as they described their transition process into a GA position. First, they viewed the GA experience as a professional opportunity. Second, their sense of belonging was dependent on their perceived contribution to the department or division. Third, relationships mattered as they navigated the transition into their GA role. And finally, self agency (individual action) was apparent as they became engaged in their own success.
Students' Adjustment to College
Authors: Deggs David
Published: February 2020

Summer orientation programs are one of the most common methods utilized by colleges and universities to promote adjustment to college and retention of first-time freshmen. Not all students take advantage of orientation programs, although the programs are often applauded for their essential role in easing students' adjustment to college. This study sought to compare first-time freshmen who attended an orientation program with first-time freshmen who did not attend the orientation program in regards to their campus knowledge and experience. The first-time freshman class at an exclusively undergraduate four-year university was surveyed. The results of the data analysis indicated that there was not a statistically significant difference between first-time freshmen who attended the orientation program and those who did not, except in regards to their participation in and attendance at campus activities. This result underscores the value that students place on the social components of college as it relates to student transition and retention.

Published: February 2020

This study used a mixed methods approach to investigate various adjustment issues of participants in a summer bridge program for engineering students at a predominantly White insitution (PWI) in the mid-southeastern region of the United States. Specifically, the academic, social, personal-emotional, and goal commitment and institutional attachment subscales of the Student Adaption to College Questionnaire (SACQ) were utilized for this purpose. The Summer Bridge Inventory (SBI) that was employed in this research revealed the summer bridge participants' opinions about the strengths and weaknesses of the program and its related activities.
LA IMPOSICIÓN AFECTADA COMO MECANISMO CORRECTOR AMBIENTAL Y ECONÓMICO EN LA GENERACIÓN DE ELECTRICIDAD CON ENERGÍAS NO RENOVABLES
Authors: González Lorente Álvaro , Hernández López Montserrat , Martín Álvarez Francisco Javier , Mendoza Jiménez Javier
Published: February 2020

En la actualidad la generación de electricidad con fuentes de energía renovables sigue siendo inferior a la producida con energías no renovables. Cabe preguntarse entonces si se podría imponer algún tipo de gravamen a la generación de electricidad a partir de fuentes de energía no renovables para colaborar a un cambio definitivo en el comportamiento ambiental, y si ese gravamen podría ser un impuesto afectado para que lo que se recaude se destine íntegramente a compensar las deseconomías externas producidas por la generación de electricidad haciendo uso de energías no renovables. En este artículo se revisa la imposición ambiental en Cuba y en España, y se presentan datos que permitirían proponer un modelo impositivo ambiental afectado.

Repurposing Therapeutics for COVID-19: Supercomputer-Based Docking to the SARS-CoV-2 Viral Spike Protein and Viral Spike Protein-Human ACE2 Interface
Authors: Smith Micholas , Smith Jeremy C.
Published: February 2020

The novel Wuhan coronavirus (SARS-CoV-2) has been sequenced, and the virus shares substantial similarity with SARS-CoV. Here, using a computational model of the spike protein (S-protein) of SARS-CoV-2 interacting with the human ACE2 receptor, we make use of the world's most powerful supercomputer, SUMMIT, to enact an ensemble docking virtual high-throughput screening campaign and identify small-molecules which bind to either the isolated Viral S-protein at its host receptor region or to the S protein-human ACE2 interface. We hypothesize the identified small-molecules may be repurposed to limit viral recognition of host cells and/or disrupt host-virus interactions. A ranked list of compounds is given that can be tested experimentally.
Fe-N-C Nanozyme with Both Accelerated and Inhibited Biocatalytic Activities Capable of Accessing Drug-Drug Interaction

Published: February 2020

Emerged as a cost-effective and robust enzyme mimic, nanozymes have drawn increasing attention with broad applications ranging from cancer therapy to biosensing. Developing nanozymes with both accelerated and inhibited biocatalytic properties in a biological context is highly envisioned for perusing more advanced functions of natural enzymes, such as in drug-drug interaction, but remains challenging. By re-visiting the well-known Fe-N-C electrocatalyst that has a heme-like Fe-Nx coordination active center, herein, we report that the Fe-N-C with a minimum graphitization had an even superior cytochrome P450 (CYP)-like biocatalytic activity. Moreover, the drug metabolization by the Fe-N-C upon co-existence of other foods and drugs demonstrated a trend of inhibition similar to CYP, indicating its great potential as a replacement for drug dosing guide and outcome prediction. Beyond boosting the enzyme-like activity, this work would open a new vista of nanozymes with inhibited behavior for keeping up more demanding applications, enabled by further mimicking the molecular structure of enzymes.

Authors: Du Dang Xuan , Anh Pham Thi Giang
Published: February 2020

In this present paper, cuprous (Cu2O) nanoparticles were successfully fabricated by using ascorbic acid as a reducing agent. The purity and characteristics of Cu2O nanoparticles were determined by XRD and FT-IR methods. The morphology and particle size of the material were determined by SEM, TEM, respectively. The results showed that the concentration of sodium hydroxide was effective in the morphology and particle size of the material. Furthermore, the Cu2O nanoparticles with particle size of 70-80 nm exhibited a good photocatalytic activity on photodegradtion of Rhodamine B by visible light, and the photocatalytic degradation ratio of Rhodamine B attained to 70%.

Keywords: couprous nanoparticles, ascorbic-acid reduction, photocatalytic degradation, photocatalytic activity, Rhodamine B.
Los asentamientos humanos irregulares en Guadalupe, Zacatecas- México
Authors: Cruz Cruz Marisol , López Humberto De Luna
Published: February 2020

Este trabajo revisa las características de los Asentamientos Humanos Irregulares en un territorio del centro-norte de México. Comienza con las contribuciones de las diversas disciplinas que abordan los aspectos de marginación, pobreza, exclusión, uso del suelo, ausencia de planeación y planificación, territorio, sostenibilidad, salud y enfermedades, abastecimiento de agua, otros. En seguida, algunas experiencias de acciones gubernamentales para regularizar o legalizar la ciudad. Luego, se exponen las apreciaciones teóricas sobre el concepto asentamiento irregular y las implicaciones socioeconómicas públicas; desde luego los AHIs en las sociedades con alta dependencia en la intervención estatal existen fenómenos de clientelismo político que trastocan el complejo proceso de regularización de los asentamientos humanos, teniendo en cuenta la orografía, el tipo de área donde se encuentran los lotes, los riesgos del suelo, las partículas suspendidas en el aire, entre otros. Finalmente, se presentan los aspectos generales del municipio de Guadalupe y los procesos de gestación de los AHIs, que a diferencia del resto de América Latina está anclada en la búsqueda de tierras como identidad del pequeño productor, marginado y precario.
Análisis sobre la estandarización estadística del movimiento de carga de los puertos de Buenaventura, Buenos Aires y San Antonio entre 2010 y 2016
Authors: Gómez Pérez Cristian Mauricio
Published: February 2020

El concepto de puerto es una plataforma de intercambio de mercancías que generan utilidades a las arcas del Estado, y al mismo tiempo, generan información económica (estadísticas). Se espera que los puertos en  pro de los procesos de globalización que las últimas décadas se han venido gestando, tuvieran estandarización sobre los parámetros del movimiento de carga.

 

El presente artículo reflexivo es el resultado de la revisión de informes de los puertos de Buenaventura, Buenos Aires y San Antonio con el fin de establecer si existe o no, parámetros y estadísticas unificados que permitan realizar un análisis objetivo acerca del movimiento de carga o si por el contrario, la diversidad estadística  obliga a acudir no solo a procedimientos de conversión (TEU a TON o viceversa) sino también  la subjetividad, en cuanto a la interpretación de las cifras sobre el movimiento de carga de las plataformas de intercambio a estudiar.

 

Se desarrolla una observación de los informes  de los puertos, para determinar si realmente el movimiento de carga se encuentra unificado y/o estandarizado bajo una misma unidad de medida, se logra evidenciar que  los diferentes formatos estadísticos cuentan con  diferentes unidades de medida de la carga que impiden un análisis objetivo,  pues de por sí, dichas unidades de medición no permiten lograr la exactitud una vez convertidas ya sean de TEUS a Toneladas  y viceversa, teniendo que acudir por medio de procedimientos, a la conversión y la interpretación de  resultados  aproximados
