News as Hazardous Waste: Postmedia, the Competition Bureau, and the Supreme Court of Canada
Authors: Edge Marc
Published: February 2018

Background  In early 2015, a few months after Postmedia Network, Canada’s largest newspaper company, purchased 175 Sun Media titles from Quebecor Inc., the Supreme Court of Canada rendered a landmark decision. It allowed the purchase of one hazardous waste company by another because the Competition Bureau, which had blocked the deal, failed to quantify the anti-competitive effects of the monopoly created.Analysis  The ruling set an important precedent for the Postmedia purchase, which was approved by the Competition Bureau two months later.Conclusions and implications  This article points up the problematic nature of competition cases involving news media companies and the need for reform of the Competition Act to prevent such cases from being decided solely on economic grounds, as now mandated by the Supreme Court.Keywords  Newspapers; Postmedia; Competition Bureau; Press ownership concentrationContexte  Au début de 2015, quelques mois après que le plus grand groupe de presse au Canada, Postmedia Network, a acheté les 175 journaux Sun Media de Québecor Inc., la Cour suprême du Canada a pris une décision marquante.

Escritas da história nos anos 1980: um ensaio sobre o horizonte histórico da (re)democratização
Authors: Sousa Francisco Gouvea de
Published: February 2018

O objetivo principal deste ensaio é ter a história da historiografia como caminho para reconstruir parte do horizonte da redemocratização, em diálogo com alguns livros que estão presentes na formação de historiadores desde a década de 1990. A atualidade e permanência da produção destes anos sugere a continuidade de um horizonte histórico. O ensaio realiza então três movimentos: 1) a compreensão da redemocratização como reconstrução de um horizonte; 2) a crise do conceito “ideologia” como sintoma de uma transformação mais ampla; 3) algumas respostas da historiografia à redemocratização. A questão é saber como democracia e historiografia se reorganizaram se abrindo para “novas personagens” e para um horizonte histórico em movimento.

Social Technology: An Integrated Strategy and Risk Management Framework
Authors: Lenk Margarita M. , Krahel John Peter , Janvrin Diane J. , Considine Brett
Published: February 2018

Accounting firms, corporations, and nonprofits use social technology to attract and develop employees, manage business intelligence, innovate business processes, engage clients, customers, and members, and disseminate information to investors and regulators. Despite its benefits, social technology's unique reach and speed create new risks for managers, accountants, and auditors. Based upon prior research and modifications to Kaplan and Norton's (2004) balanced scorecard and the COSO (2017) Enterprise Risk Management framework, we develop an Integrated Social Technology Strategy and Risk Management Framework to model risk management during strategy selection and implementation. A field investigation involving three large accounting organizations supports the framework's representativeness for the accounting profession. This research identifies significant benefits, risks, and effective risk management controls for social technology strategies, from governance to monitoring activities. These results suggest this framework's potential usefulness to managers, auditors, consultants, and researchers examining how social technology can provide value to organizations.

Teachers play a leading role and occupy a very crucial position in the world of education, especially education organized formally in both schools and madrasah. Therefore, the constitutional existence of teachers has been regulated in Law no. 14 of 2005 on teachers and lecturers. The law requires a number of teacher competencies as professional educators. Although formally the teacher is regarded as a professional educator, but in practice in the field various types and behavioral models presented by the teacher in realizing the duties and responsibilities of his profession as a teacher is mainly reflected in the learning activities in the classroom. There are behavioral behavior of teachers who are stagnant even tend to decline and there is also the behavior of teachers who experience improvement and progress.

Published: February 2018

This article describes the Arabic learning in terms of speaking skills using communicative approach. In Arabic language learning is known four language skills that must be possessed by students that are listening skills (maharah al-istima '), speaking skill (maharah al-kalam), reading skill (maharah al-qira`ah), writing skill (maharah al-kitabah ). To obtain language skills in the learning process and become a daily habit in the environment would require the competence of Arabic teachers who have an innovative approach in teaching. One of the approaches of learning speaking skills is by using a communicative approach. The steps are (1) the learner hears, reads, then practices a two-line dialogue with his partner, (2) hears and repeats it, (3) listens to the dialogue model and then repeats it by observing the names in the dialog with their own name, (4) ) read the question hint and make a question, (5) read a two-line dialogue framework then practice with his partner, (6) hear reading the question model and ask.

“How High Is Your RQ?”: Is Te Reo Māori The New Blood Quantum?
Authors: Derby Melissa Jane , Macfarlane Sonja
Published: February 2018

“Are you part-Māori?” “How much Māori blood do you have?” “S/he is only one sixteenth Māori so not really Māori” “You’re one quarter Māori?! Wow you don’t look it” “I can tell you have something in you – it’s your eyes that give it away” and “But there aren’t any full-blooded Māori left anyway” are comments many of us have heard, and some of us may have made, as we grapple with this complex and intricate thing called ‘identity’. The archaic notion of defining who is (or who is not) Māori based on a mathematical formula, whereby (we think) we are supposed to divide the number of generations since our tūpuna (ancestors) were ‘full-blooded’ by the number of marriages with people who are non-Māori in order to determine who is a ‘real Māori’ (or not), thankfully is no longer accepted practice in Aotearoa New Zealand – although, sadly, the same cannot be said for our Indigenous counterparts elsewhere. That isn’t to say that comments like those mentioned above aren’t still made – and for the most part (Don Brash and Bob Jones excluded), we don’t believe those who ask these questions are intending to cause harm; rather they are perhaps being made in order to satisfy a genuine curiosity about another person’s identity.
Accessory ostium of the maxilar sinus
Authors: Ioniţă C. , Bulescu I. , Schnaider Alexandra , Mocanu B. , Budu Vlad Andrei , Cojocaru Diana
Published: February 2018

Maxillary sinus ostium may be located anywhere along the ethmoid infundibulum (middle meatus). 
In rhinosinusal pathology we may find an accessory ostium of the maxillary sinus due to chronic inflam­mations or after previous endoscopic sinus surgery. Existence of the accessory ostium leads to a recirculation mechanism of sinus secretions and a very difficult to treat rhinosinusal simptomatology. For every patient with this pathology we performed an endoscopic exam of the nose and a rhinosinusal CT scan. Treatment is strictly surgical by creating a unique ostium (consisting of both primary and accessory ostium). Endoscopic anatomy of the ostiomeatal unit should be well understood by the surgeon in order to perform a correct endoscopic sinus surgery, obtaining a proper sinus ventilation and avoiding complications. The presence of an accessory maxillary sinus ostium has only an endoscopic surgical treatment for ensuring sinus drainage and increasing the quality 
of life of our patients.

Glottal insufficiency and the associated risk of dysphagia
Authors: Gherson Shirley , Dumbravă Laura
Published: February 2018

The most common etiology of glottal insufficiency is vocal fold paralysis usually from damage to the nerve supplying the laryngeal muscles. Glottal closure is an important part of the mechanism that protects the airway during the normal swallow. Vocal fold paralysis or atrophy disrupts the normal closure of glottis during swallowing, thus placing patient at increased risk for aspiration. Treatment of glottal insufficiency can be classified as surgical, provided by the otolaryngologist, or non-surgical. Non-surgical treatment includes voice therapy which may incorporate resonant voice therapy, counseling and massaging techniques. Swallowing rehabilitation, another form of non-surgical intervention, consists of direct therapy (swallowing maneuvers, head postures, or changes in diet consistencies) or indirect therapy (swallowing exercises), or combined.

Published: February 2018

Chondrosarcomas of the larynx are rare cancers, representing less than 1% of all laryngeal tumors. The most often involved site is the cricoid cartilage. They have generally good prognosis, and low metastatic tendency. Surgery is the treatment of choice, partial in small limited tumors or total laryngectomy if tumor extends beyond the half of the cricoid and/or is poor differentiated. Although there are some pathognomonic imaging characteristics for chondrosarcomas, the histology remains the gold standard for diagnostic. The authors present a case of large, medium differentiated chondrosarcoma (grade II), surgically treated by total laryngectomy.
Why Is Safe Science Good Science?
Authors: Kao Camilla , Kao Che-I , Furr Russell
Published: February 2018

In science, safety can seem unfashionable. Satisfying safety requirements can slow the pace of research, make it cumbersome, or cost significant amounts of money. The logic of rules can seem unclear. Compliance can feel like a negative incentive. So besides the obvious benefit that safety keeps one safe, why do some scientists preach "safe science is good science"? Understanding the principles that underlie this maxim might help to create a strong positive incentive to incorporate safety into the pursuit of groundbreaking science.

This essay explains how safety can enhance the quality of an experiment and promote innovation in one's research. Being safe induces a researcher to have greater control over an experiment, which reduces the uncertainty that characterizes the experiment. Less uncertainty increases both safety and the quality of the experiment, the latter including statistical quality (reproducibility, sensitivity, etc.) and countless other properties (yield, purity, cost, etc.). Like prototyping in design thinking and working under the constraint of creative limitation in the arts, considering safety issues is a hands-on activity that involves decision-making. Making decisions leads to new ideas, which spawns innovation.

Published: February 2018

This Manual is proposed as a tool for capacity-building in relation to
transboundary water conflict prevention and resolution, and to the legal and
institutional dimension of transboundary water resources governance. As water
management includes also dispute management, the Manual explores first dispute
management techniques, with particular attention to alternative dispute
resolution (ADR) that includes mediation and facilitation of negotiations. Next,
the Manual explores the legal and institutional dimension of the governance of
the water resources of transboundary rivers, lakes, and aquifers. Finally, the
interplay between the transboundary and the domestic legal and institutional
dimension is also canvassed in this Manual from two complementary angles: by
looking into general reflections of awareness of, attention to, and concern for,
transboundary rivers, lakes, and aquifers in States’ domestic water laws; and by
identifying ways for domestic water laws and institutions to align with the
rules agreed upon by the States concerned for the management, development, and
protection of their transboundary water resources.

Published: February 2018

Abstract: Learner autonomy on writing is independently teaching and learning that keeps students’ control to explore their knowledge and experiences in written language, find out and evaluate their errors based on the conceptual courses to make accurately simple essay. The aim was to know the effectiveness of the learner autonomy on writing accuracy. This quantitative research conducted in one group pretest and posttest design. The number of samples was 21 students in Bangkalan. The instrument were tests to gain students’ writing score before and after treatment. Researcher statistically analyzed the data using SPSS 23 version by running a Paired Samples Test. The result shown the means of pretes score was 66,83 and posttest score was 74,57, Paired Samples Correlations was 0,614 (strong correlation). Significance was 0,005, it means that  a (0,05) is higher than r value (0,005) with high variance of mean value (14,091). As a result, the hypothesis (H1­) was received that learner autonomy contributed effectively to learners’ in organizing own ideas (Ene, 2006) such as making a topic  map becomes some explanable sub-topics, writing down main and supporting idea, clustering some objects, editing next and learners  absolutely accumulate some selected vocabularies inappropriate topics  (Chengping W, 2008).Keyword: Learner Autonomy, Learning process, outcomesAbsrak: Pembelajaran otonomi  adalah pembelajaran mandiri yang mengontrol mahasiswa untuk menyampaikan gagasan dan pengalamannya, mencatat dan mengevaluasi kesalahan yang terjadi dalam penulisan esai sederhana berdasarkan pembelajaran yang tersetruktur. Tujuan adalah untuk mengetahui efektifitas pembelajaran otonomi terhadap akurasi tulisan secara statistik. Penelitian ini dilakukan dengan menggunakan desain tes awal dan akhir. Jumlah sampel terdiri dari 21 siswa di Bangkalan. Isntrumen yang digunakan adalah tes untuk mengetahui hasil nilai mahasiswa sebelum dan sesudah melakukan pembelajaran otonomi. Peneliti menganalisa data dengan menggunakan versi SPSS 23 dengan menggunakan sampel tes  yang berpasangan. Hasil rata-rata tes awal adalah 66,83 dan tes akhir adalah 74,57, dengan corelasi sampel berpasangannya adalah 0,614 (kuat). Sedangkan signifikansinya adalah 0,005, artinya a (0,05) lebih besar daripada r value (0,005) dengan varian nilai rata-rata yang tinggi (14,091). Hasil hipotesis (H1)-nya diterima bahwa pembelajara otonomi berkontribusi secara efektif terhadap pengorganisasian gagasan mahasiswa sendiri (Ene, 2006) seperti memetakan suatu topik menjadi sub-topik yang mudah dijelaskan, pengelompokan objek tertentu untuk dijadikan topik, kemudian mengeditnya dan tentunya dapat memilih kosakat-kosakata yang sesuai dengan topiknya  (Chengping W, 2008).Kata Kunci: pemanfaatan media, pembelajaran sains

Laser ablative therapy of sessile hypothalamic hamartomas in children using interventional MRI: report of 5 cases
Authors: Southwell Derek G. , Birk Harjus S. , Larson Paul S. , Starr Philip A. , Sugrue Leo P. , Auguste Kurtis I.
Published: February 2018

Hypothalamic hamartomas (HHs) are benign lesions that cause medically refractory seizures, behavioral disturbances, and endocrine dysfunction. Open resection of HHs does not guarantee seizure freedom and carries a relatively high risk of morbidity. Minimally invasive stereotactic laser ablation has recently been described as an effective and safe alternative for HH treatment. Prior studies have not, however, assessed HH lesion size and morphology, 2 factors that may influence treatment results and, ultimately, the generalizability of their findings. In this paper, the authors describe seizure outcomes for 5 pediatric patients who underwent laser ablation of sessile HHs. Lesions were treated using a frameless, interventional MRI-guided approach, which facilitated laser targeting to specific components of these complex lesions. The authors’ experiences in these cases substantiate prior work demonstrating the effectiveness of laser therapy for HHs, while elucidating HH complexity as a potentially important factor in laser treatment planning, and in the interpretation of early studies describing this treatment method.
Trapped ventricle after laser ablation of a subependymal giant cell astrocytoma complicated by intraventricular gadolinium extravasation: case report
Authors: Karsy Michael , Patel Daxa M. , Bollo Robert J.
Published: February 2018

Magnetic resonance imaging–guided stereotactic laser ablation of intracranial targets, including brain tumors, has expanded dramatically over the past decade, but there have been few reports of complications, especially those occurring in a delayed fashion. Laser ablation of subependymal giant cell astrocytomas (SEGAs) is an attractive alternative to maintenance immunotherapy in some children with tuberous sclerosis complex (TSC); however, the effect of treatment on disease progression and the nature and frequency of potential complications remains largely unknown. The authors report the case of a 5-year-old boy with TSC who underwent stereotactic laser ablation of a SEGA at the right foramen of Monro on 2 separate occasions. After the second ablation, immediate posttreatment MRI revealed gadolinium extravasation from the tumor into the lateral ventricle. Nine months later, the patient presented with papilledema and delayed obstructive hydrocephalus secondary to intraventricular adhesions causing a trapped right lateral ventricle. This was successfully treated with endoscopic septostomy. The authors discuss the potential cause and clinical management of a delayed complication not previously reported after a relatively novel surgical therapy.
