Guerras imperiales, donativos patrióticos y pueblos de indios en Chiapas, 1780-1814
Authors: Guillén Villafuerte José Javier
Published: March 2018

Este artículo estudia el cobro de los donativos patrióticos que la monarquía hispánica solicitó a los habitantes de la provincia de Chiapas entre 1780 y 1814, periodo en el cual las guerras que sacudieron al mundo atlántico ocasionaron graves problemas a la Hacienda del rey. Nuestro propósito es analizar cuántos donativos se pidieron a la población de Chiapas durante aquellos años, cuáles fueron los procedimientos a los que recurrieron los cobradores y cuántos recursos se obtuvieron a través de su recolección. Posteriormente, estudiamos cómo reaccionaron los indios de Chiapas a los intentos de sus autoridades para que pagaran dichos donativos, en razón a lo cual ponemos atención a las prácticas  de resistencia fiscal y negociación que desplegaron para evadir tales contribuciones extraordinarias y hacerlas menos gravosas o, incluso, beneficiarse de ellas.

Corporate governance and social networks: The relationship between the board of directors and earnings management
Authors: Athianos Stergios , Kydros Dimitrios
Published: March 2018

In this paper, we examine a set of Greek Listed Companies with respect to the interconnections between their Boards of Directors (BoD’s). Our main objective is to examine if and to what extent these Directors are interlocked, and if this possible interlocking may affect the course of economic or financial decisions through the information content of announced earnings, including implications on the current financial crisis in Greece. For this purpose, we use two different modes of research methodology, namely social network analysis and OLS methodology (panel analysis). The results of this study indicate the existence of a highly connected and interdependent network between companies and the people constitute the BoD’s. Also, the results show that in their entirety the companies are related and there is a high degree of interaction. These results lead to interesting theoretical and policy implications: could such a high interconnection lead to an extreme risk of total failure of the system in periods of hard times? To what extent should the state through its regulatory instruments (laws, market observers) try to affect the actual forming of Listed Companies BoD’s? Has this interlocking played its role in the Greek Economic Crisis, etc.?

Ao final, apresenta-se o modo como quatro poetas modernistas − Mário de Andrade, Oswald de Andrade, Carlos Drummond de Andrade e Manuel Bandeira − foram caracterizados em cada antologia.
¿Debemos esperar una mayor expansión de distintos Arbovirus en las Américas?
Authors: Patiño-Barbosa Andrés Mauricio , Rodríguez-Morales Alfonso J.
Published: March 2018

Los arbovirus se definen como un grupo de virus que existen principalmente gracias a la transmisión biológica entre huéspedes vertebrados susceptibles por artrópodos hematófagos. Se consolidan como un grupo taxonómicamente diverso, conformado por más de 500 virus de los cuales 150 infectan al hombre. Gracias a la amplia distribución de los vectores y a la vigilancia y control que requieren estos artrópodos es que se hace casi imposible evitar la expansión de estas enfermedades a casi cualquier país tropical o subtropical del mundo, e incluso algunas regiones templadas, permitiendo que en la actualidad se encuentren globalmente dispersas y que se consoliden como infecciones endémicas de muchas regiones, entre ellas América Latina
IMPROVING TAX ADMINISTRATION OF VAT IN THE INTERESTS OF THE STATE AND TAXPAYERS
Authors: Smirnova Elena Valerievna
Published: March 2018

Despite the fact that the tax regulation of VAT has been improving since its introduction in Russia, disputes over its further reformation are still ongoing. In this regard, the paper describes an attempt to justify the need of reforming the method of VAT calculation and administration not only in the interests of the state, but also in the interests of the taxpayers, which requires thorough weighting of all the positive and negative consequences of the proposed changes in tax legislation. The analysis of the quality of administration and structure of VAT revenues to the state budget of Russia showed imperfection of the structure of the tax on relation to the value added tax calculated for payment to the budget and the amount of tax deductions. With this structure more than 93% of the VAT amounts are subject to reimbursement from the budget. In such proportions, the administration of VAP is not effective, despite the annual improvement in the quality of tax control. For the solution of the revealed problems, it has been offered to carry out inventory of tax privileges and exemptions on VAT for their further processing in respect to the contents and structure. Representatives of the expert community warn against risky options for raising VAT rates, which will cause fast growth of inflation in Russia and neutralize the activities of the Central Bank of Russia to reduce inflation. The possible variants of complex adjustment of tax rates of VAT and insurance contributions to extra-budgetary funds, which will not only increase the tax revenues of the budget, but also reduce the tax burden on the activities of economic entities, are considered.

Published: March 2018

In the context of growing penetration of the market mechanisms into the labor management modernization of the domestic health sector has led to significant changes in the content and performance of health workers. As a result, a new type of tasks related to significant transformations in the labor relations regulation of health care organizations was formed. In turn, this fact has led to the emergence of a number of social and labor contradictions concerning economic interests of workers, employers and the state, which in particular led to destructive consequences reflected in increasing imbalances in the labor market, reducing motivation of medical workers to labor and improving professional knowledge and skills for the effective use of modern high-tech equipment, increasing outflow of workers from the health service as a whole and the mass outflow of highly qualified senior and middle-level employees from medical organizations of the peripheral to central territories. The article presents theoretical and conceptual grounds for improving the efficiency of labor relations regulation of in medical organizations, including mechanism of partnership between the state and business. There have been found and analyzed the specific trends and technologies of labor relations regulation typical for the modern stage of healthcare modernization, considered peculiarities of using market and non-market methods and mechanisms in this process. There have been presented the directions of developing regulation mechanisms of labor relations in the health care organizations connected with realization of programs of training and professional development for the health care personnel, elimination of imbalances on the labor market in the health care sector, improvement of conditions for professional activity, stimulation of innovative activity of health workers and ensuring wages appropriate to the work results. The specified directions can provide increase of efficiency of the labor relations in organizations of health care on the basis of improvement of material and technical basis of professional activity of medical workers, improvement of mechanisms of stimulation of innovative activity. Implementation of the mechanisms of partnership between the state and business will allow attracting private investments in the health care sector, reducing imbalances in the labor market, which will result in creating the competitive domestic medicine.

Published: March 2018

The youth policy represents the major strategic direction of the general policy of the state. The regional factor of youth policy becomes a key factor in the development of the territories. The current stage of the development of the Russian Federation defines young people as a special resource for the development of the state, which has specific features. However, for the competent participation of young people in developing of Russia and in particular of its regions the conditions for social changes in the global world dictate the need for increased attention on the part of the state in the formation and development of young people. Reducing the number of young people by 2025, due to a number of challenges, justifies the priority status of youth policy as an object of state support. From the standpoint of the regional development, youth policy should be given a differentiated character, taking into account the demographic characteristics of the territories.The particular attention is paid to the program-targeted methods of supporting the youth policy of the Volgograd region, the priority areas of which are: civil-patriotic and spiritual-moral upbringing; involvement of youth in volunteer activities; support for socially significant initiatives; formation of a healthy lifestyle, including the organization of recreation and health improvement of children, support of young families. Priority directions of realization of the state youth policy of the region are being considered.

Published: March 2018

Animal husbandry in the Astrakhan region ranks the highestpriority in the milk production which is a core industry with specific advantages of the region. In the structure of agricultural production the industry occupies about 40% and is characterized by the high agricultural production potential. The diversification and development of small forms of management, the improvement of agrarian policy are accompanied by qualitative changes in the organization of agricultural production. The creation of institutions for the industry development represented by state programs ofagricultural development and regulation of markets of agricultural products, raw materials and foodstuffs of the Russian Federation did not fully provide the achievement of the set goals and objectives. As a result, numerous problems have accumulated in the country's livestock sector, resulting in a steady reducing milk production and cattle number, including cows. New economic challenges increase the relevance of research and requirements to increase the validity of the formation and evaluation of the effectiveness of the implementation of program activities of the subjects of the Russian Federation. A comprehensive analysis of the condition and trends of livestock development carried out on the basis of a two-factor multiplicative model and an assessment of the impact of quantitative and qualitative indicators will allow to form directions for further institutional development of the agro-industrial complex of the region.
COMBINING VETERANS AND TEACHERS IN A UNIQUE SERVICE LEARNING EXPERIENCE
Authors: Mandala Mahender , Goldberg Mary , Pearlman Jonathan
Published: March 2018

This paper describes the design-based service learning model utilized to provide an engaging STEM experience to local K-12 science and math teachers and U.S. military veterans returning from service and transitioning to secondary education. A critical factor that can contribute to increased student outcomes from a service-learning program is the level of preparation a teacher has as a mediator of knowledge and an active partner. Professional development activities directed towards in-service teachers could potentially alleviate this issue. Furthermore, such activities, when combined with well-developed inquiry-based learning pedagogy, could provide for increased engagement and understanding of STEM of students. Recent evidence shows that veterans may be more likely than the general population to be interested and well suited for a career in engineering. With more than two million veterans returning from service in the near future, the shortage in undergraduate engineering enrollment could be assuaged. The REVT format at Pitt has the potential to provide veterans with the support to experience STEM without the fear of failure, while allowing teachers to benefit from the field experience and leadership skills of veterans in the program. The juxtaposition of these two populations allows for co-mentoring opportunities, with each group benefiting from contrasting experiences.
The LSU Community Playground Project: Reflections on 16 Years of an Engineering Service-Learning Program
Authors: Lima Marybeth
Published: March 2018

This article presents a first-year, biological engineering design course in which a placement-project combination service-learning model is used to enable students to meet practice-based and civic-based learning objectives. In this course, college students (1) work individually with elementary school students to practice reading and math skills and to learn about play and the school community, and (2) work in teams to co-create playground designs with the child play experts. Lessons learned and best practices of engineering service-learning are discussed, including the shift in instructional role, the variability and “partially controlled” nature of community-university partnerships, and the importance of language. Outcomes of the program are briefly discussed, with more detail given to five years of alumni survey data regarding the service activities of participants in the service-learning course before and after graduation. Results showed that 68% of respondents participated in service before graduation and 45% participate after graduation. Most service activities performed by graduates are not engineering related. Ideas for encouraging service in the engineering profession are discussed.

Naval and Oceanic Engineering: more than Ships and Offshore
Authors: Salas Marcos , Cifuentes Cristian , Luco Richard , Santander Astrid , Tampier Gonzalo , Troncoso Claudio , Zilic Federico
Published: March 2018

Traditionally, Naval and Oceanic Engineering has been focused on research in surface and submarine ships; and fixed and floating offshore structures. More than 90% of world trade is transported by sea, so it is not surprising that most research efforts have been focused on making merchant ships more efficient and safer. Something similar is happening in the offshore industry driven by the demand for energy. Despite the evident need to perform research in the traditional fields of Naval and Oceanic Engineering, new challenges have caused universities and research centers to tackle new fields of research. This paper presents some of the research and innovations developed at the Institute of Naval and Maritime Sciences (ICNM) of the Austral University of Chile (UACH). These new frontiers for research address problems as diverse as the capturing of energy from waves and currents [1], the development of structures and systems for aquaculture [2], the design of autonomous underwater vehicles [3], the use of solar energy for the propulsion of small boats [4] and the design of floating ports for remote areas [5].

Published: March 2018

Bio-stimulators are organic products that have been found to enhance crop growth and productivity through mitigating against biotic and abiotic stresses. Four Cowpea varieties namely K80, M66, KVU 27-1 and Kenya Kunde; commercially released & adopted by local households for vegetable production were used to evaluate the impact of bio-stimulators on growth and leaf yield of cowpea in Juja and Katumani from May to July, 2013. The treatments were arranged in a factorial structure, laid out in an RCBD, which were combination of 9 levels of bio-stimulators, with the 4 cowpea varieties planted per site, and giving a total of 36 treatments for each site replicated 3 times. The plots measured 2.5m by 2.5m with spacing of 60cm by 20cm. Parameters under investigation included germination rate, days to germination, plant height, and number of leaves produced and number of nodules formed. Cultural practices such as weeding and pest control were done as need arose. The results showed that there were significant differences in days to germination, germination rate, plant population, chlorophyll levels, leaf weight, plant height and leaf area but not in leaf area between Juja and Katumani. Earliest germination and highest leaf weight were in Katumai whereas highest plant population, germination rate and chlorophyll levels and leaf area were in Juja. Humates improved germination rate, plant height, leaf weight and nodule development in Juja while seaweed extracts improved days to germination, germination rate, plant height, leaf yield, leaf weight and nodule formation in Katumani. Interaction between site and bio-stimulators was recorded in germination rate, days to germination, plant population and in number of leaves produced. Therefore bio-stimulators should be adopted in production of cowpea leaves particularly offseason for food & nutritional security and increasing household incomes in Kenya

Stability of Adsorbed Water on TiO2-TiN Interfaces. A First Principles and Ab Initio Thermodynamics Investigation.
Authors: Nolan Michael , Gutierrez Moreno Jose Julio , Loverra Pierre , Fronzi Marco , O'Riordan Alan
Published: March 2018

Titanium Nitride (TiN) surfaces can oxidise and the growth of a TiOx layer on the surface along with the likely presence of water in the surrounding environment can modify the properties of this widely used coating material. The present Density Functional Theory study, including Hubbard +U correction (DFT+U), investigates the stability of adsorbed water at TiO2-TiN interfaces with different defects, that serve as a model for an oxide layer grown on a TiN surface. Surface free energy calculations show the stability of perfect TiN-TiO2 interface at regular O pressures, while oxygen vacancy-rich TiO1.88–TiN is more favourable at reducing conditions. An isolated water is preferentially adsorbed dissociatively at perfect and oxygen defective interfaces while molecular adsorption is more stable at higher coverages. The adsorption energy is stronger at the oxygen defective interfaces which arises from the high concentration of reduced Ti3+ and strong interfacial atomic relaxations. Ab initio atomistic thermodynamics show that water will be present at high coverage on TiO2-TiN interfaces at ambient conditions and the pristine interface is only stable at very low pressure of O and H2O. The results of these DFT+U simulations are important for the fundamental understanding of wettability of interfacial systems involving metal oxides.

Evaluating the London Dispersion Coefficients of Protein Force Fields Using the Exchange-Hole Dipole Moment Model
Authors: Walters Evan T. , Mohebifar Mohamad , Johnson Erin R. , Rowley Christopher
Published: March 2018

London dispersion is one of the fundamental intermolecular interactions involved in protein folding and dynamics. The popular CHARMM36, Amber ff14sb, and OPLS-AA force fields represent these interactions through the C6 /r 6 term of the Lennard-Jones potential. The C6 parameters are assigned empirically, so these parameters arenot necessarily a realistic representation of the true dispersion interactions. In this work, dispersion coefficients of all three force fields were compared to correspondingvalues from quantum-chemical calculations using the exchange-hole dipole moment (XDM) model. The force field values were found to be roughly 50% larger than the XDM values for protein backbone and side-chain models. The CHARMM36 and Amber OL15 force fields for nucleic acids were also found to exhibit this trend. To explore how these elevated dispersion coefficients affect predicted properties, the hydration energies of the side-chain models were calculated using the staged REMD-TI method of Deng and Roux for the CHARMM36, Amber ff14sb, and OPLS-AA force fields. Despite having large C 6 dispersion coefficients, these force fields predict side-chain hydration energies that are in generally good agreement with the experimental values, including for hydrocarbon residues where the dispersion component is the dominant attractive solute–solvent interaction. This suggests that these force fields predict the correct total strength of dispersion interactions, despite C6 coefficients that are considerably larger than XDM predicts. An analytical expression for the water–methane dispersion energy using XDM dispersion coefficients shows that that higher-order dispersion terms(i.e., C 8 and C 10 ) account for roughly 37.5% of the hydration energy of methane. This suggests that the C 6 dispersion coefficients used in contemporary force fields areelevated to account for the neglected higher-order terms. Force fields that include higher-order dispersion interactions could resolve this issue.
Statistical Force-Field for Structural Modeling Using Chemical Cross-Linking/mass Spectrometry Distance Constraints
Authors: Ferrari Allan J. R. , Gozzo Fabio C. , Martinez Leandro
Published: March 2018

Chemical cross-linking/Mass Spectrometry (XLMS) is an experimental method to obtain distance constraints between amino acid residues, which can be applied to structural modeling of tertiary and quaternary biomolecular structures. These constraints provide, in principle, only upper limits to the distance between amino acid residues along the surface of the biomolecule. In practice, attempts to use of XLMS constraints for tertiary protein structure determination have not been widely successful. This indicates the need of specifically designed strategies for the representation of these constraints within modeling algorithms. Here, a force-field designed to represent XLMS-derived constraints is proposed. The potential energy functions are obtained by computing, in the database of known protein structures, the probability of satisfaction of a topological cross-linking distance as a function of the Euclidean distance between amino acid residues. The force-field can be easily incorporated into current modeling methods and software. In this work, the force-field was implemented within the Rosetta ab initio relax protocol. We show a significant improvement in the quality of the models obtained relative to current strategies for constraint representation. This force-field contributes to the long-desired goal of obtaining the tertiary structures of proteins using XLMS data.
