Authors: Oertle Kathleen Marie , Sax Caren L. , Chesley Elizabeth 
Published: April 2018

Purpose:This exploratory study advances personnel preparation research through the investigation of the transition content found on the institutional websites of U.S. universities with Office of Special Education Programs (OSEP) Master’s Level Personnel Preparation grants for transition planning and services (OSEP, 2015) or master’s-level Council on Rehabilitation Education (CORE)-accredited vocational rehabilitation (VR) programs (2014–2105). Individuals seeking transition training are likely to visit institutional websites given that searching online is typically the first step in exploring educational and training options.Method:A process of systematic website searches, protocol for data extraction, and an iterative content analysis were used. Data profiles were constructed, and the types of offerings were characterized and defined.Results:Twelve universities were associated with the transition offerings of eight OSEP-funded programs (8/23 or 35%) and eight CORE-accredited programs (8/97 or 8%) and their corresponding 22 websites. Four of the 12 universities appeared on both lists.Conclusions:The renewed focus on transition services within the legislation (The Workforce Innovation and Opportunity Act [WIOA], 2014) will no doubt increase the demand for educational preparation and professional development. These findings provide a baseline from which to improve visibility and develop further offerings. Areas for immediate improvement are the accuracy of the program descriptions and the ease of finding details.

This research aims to determine of (1) the productivity, income and efficiency of organic white paddy and organic black paddy and (2) the influence of production factors to production the white paddy and organic black paddy. The location of the research in Karangnyar, Central Java.The method of sampling was quota sampling with 30 respondents in each organic paddy, while the technique to collect respondents was conducted by purposive sampling. Data used in the study were primary and secondary data. Method of data analysis used in this research was (1) the analysis of productivity, income and efficiency of farming, (2) Cobb-Douglass and VPM (Varying Parameter Model) to determine the influence of factors to the production of organik white paddy and black paddy.The results of research on the analysis of productivity of organik white paddy were 95,19 kw/ha/season and black paddy with the value of 72,53kw/ha/season. Income of organic white paddy was IDR 18,786,63.72/ha/season and income of organic black paddy with the value of IDR 25,641,526,39/ha/season. The efficiency of organic white paddy was 2,97 and the organic black paddy which was 3,83. The results of the Cobb-Douglas analysis showed the production of organic white paddy different from the organic black paddy. VPM showed that the production factor of land area and labor significantly influenced production in organic white rice and organic black rice farming, while seeds and manure were known to only have significant influence toward production in organic white rice.

Published: April 2018

Abstract
Hazardous algal blooms can generate toxic compounds with significant health impacts for exposed communities. The ubiquitous class of algal toxins known as microcystins exhibits significant heterogeneity in its peptide structure, which has been minimally studied, given the significant impact this has on hydrophobicity, acid/base character and related environmental fate and health effects. Octanol–water partition coefficients for the microcystin congeners MCLR, MCRR, MCLY, MCLF, and MCLA were calculated over an environmentally and physiologically relevant pH range. Microcystin-LR log(Kow) partition coefficient values were found to be consistent with previously established literature values, 1.67 to −1.41 between pH 1 and 8. Microcystin RR was found to be pH insensitive with a log(Kow) of −0.7. The remaining congeners exhibit similar pH dependence as MCLR, with systematic increases in hydrophobicity driven by the introduction of more hydrophobic residues to their variable amino acid region. The variation in pH dependent hydrophobicity suggests increased propensity for bioaccumulation and alternate environmental fates for differing microcystin forms, requiring further investigation.

Abstract
Pump stoppage can instantaneously increase the pressure within a pipeline, which is an extreme condition and poses a severe threat to the safety of long-distance water transmission projects. Reducing positive and negative pressures is essential to reducing this risk, improving operational efficiency, and avoiding system component fatigue. This study investigated the performance of a combination of dimensionless pump parameters and pipeline pressure in providing detailed information for designing protective equipment to mitigate water hammer effects, which are generated by sudden pump stoppage. The conditions of the method of characteristics were satisfied by conducting an overall transient flow analysis to estimate the potential of the increased pressure relevant to all types of operating schemes. Extreme pressure waves, produced by pump failure or rapid valve closure, can be prevented using efficient protective designs. The findings of this study can be instructive to alleviating the potential damage engendered by water hammer.

Published: April 2018

Background:In the present study, we investigated the relationship between caroticovertebral Doppler USG measurement results and Vertigo Symptom Scale-Short Form (VSS-SF) in patients with idiopathic vertigo.Methods:Fifty patients with idiopathic vertigo and 30 healthy subjects were included into the study. Ear, Nose & Throat (ENT) examination, audiological examination, routine hemogram, biochemichal tests and temporal magnetic resonance imaging were performed to diagnose “idiopathic vertigo”. By carotico-vertebral Doppler ultrasonography (USG), common carotid artery (CCA) area, intima media thickness; and vertebral artery dimension were measured on the right and left side of the study and control groups.Results:CCA area values were not different between the study and control groups; and between the right and left sides of the each group. On the left side, intima media thickness and vertebral artery dimension values of the vertigo group were significantly higher than those of the control group. Correlation tests showed that CCA area and intima media thickness values on the right and left side were positively correlated with each other. Moreover, in patients with higher right; or left intima media thickness values, left vertebral artery dimensions decreased. Older age was associated with higher intima media thickness in right and left sides. When CCA values decreased on the right side, VSS-SF values increased; and patients’ complaints for vertigo got higher. Linear regression analysis (Backward LR) results also showed that the significant compounding factor on VSS-SF was right CCA area. As right CCA area decreased, VSS-SF increased with more vertigo complaints. Whereas, vertigo complaints and VSS-SF decreased when right CCA increased.Conclusion:We concluded that a decrease in the right CCA were linked with higher VSS-SF scores and increasing vertigo symptoms. Whereas, a decrease in the left CCA area and left crabial blood supply are more important related to the left hemispheric dominance in right-handed people. Moreover, an increase in the intima media thickness was also detected in the vertigo patients and it probably causes a decrease in the central blood flow.

Published: April 2018

Background:
Intrusion detection systems are responsible for detecting anomalies and network
attacks. Building of an effective IDS depends upon the readily available dataset. This dataset is
used to train and test intelligent IDS. In this research, NSL KDD dataset (an improvement over original
KDD Cup 1999 dataset) is used as KDD’99 contains huge amount of redundant records, which makes it
difficult to process the data accurately.

Methods:
The classification techniques applied on this dataset to analyze the data are decision trees like
J48, Random Forest and Random Trees.

Results:
On comparison of these three classification algorithms, Random Forest was proved to produce
the best results and therefore, Random Forest classification method was used to further analyze the data.
The results are analyzed and depicted in this paper with the help of feature/attribute selection by applying
all the possible combinations.

Conclusion:
There are total of eight significant attributes selected after applying various attribute selection
methods on NSL KDD dataset.

Published: April 2018

The use of pesticides to eradicate pests are an integral part in farming system. Pesticides use to increase production and protect the production of physical defects can also cause pollution on agricultural land. The presence of pesticide residues in soil and agricultural production can cause health problems for human and animals and even death. To overcome this problem there needs a way to degrade hazardous waste in the environment by performing the remediation. Remediation is carried out by microorganisms fungi, bacteria and algae known as bioremediation. Bioremediation aims to transform compounds into harmless compounds with the end result are carbon dioxide, water and biomass cells. The advantages of bioremediation are environmentally friendly, highly efficient, low cost, can be implemented directly in the field, laboratory and combined with chemical and physical methods.Keywords: bioremediation, soil degradation, pesticides, microorganisms

Published: April 2018

Recent studies suggest that patients with multiple sclerosis(MS) have low levels of neurotrophic factors such as nerve growth factor(NGF), brain-derived neurothrophic factor(BDNF) and the vitamin D-binding protein(VDBP), and exercise training may affects these factors in people with MS. The purpose of this study was to investigate the effect of a combined exercise training programon the serum levels of neurotrophic factos in women with MS. A randomized controlled clinical trial was conducted in 24 volunteer MS patients(Expanded Disability Status Scale range of 1–5). Resting serum levels of BDNF, NGF, VDBP, body composition variables, and disability scale values were determined before and after the intervention. The intervention consisted of three sessions of combined training a week for 12 weeks(two sessions of aerobic and one session of resistance training, progressively). Aerobic training consisted of interval training with 4-13 repetition of aerobic activity at 40-55% of heart rate reserve; and resistance training consisted of 8-12 repetitions with 60-80% of 1RM for eight movements. The results showed a significant decrease in body fat percentage (p=0.003) and disability scale value(p=0.007) in the experimental group. no other significant changes was observed for other variables or in the control group. This study indicates that although the combined aerobic and resistance training in three non-consecutive days per week for 12 weeks has no effect on NGF, BDNF, and VDBP; however with positive effects on the body fat percentage and disability scale value can be for women with MS.
Identifying the Absence of Effective Internal Controls: An Alternative Approach for Internal Control Audits
Authors: Werner Michael , Gehrke Nick 
Published: April 2018

ABSTRACT
Auditors face new challenges when auditing internal controls due to the increasing integration of information systems for transaction processing and the growing amount of data. Traditional manual control testing procedures become inefficient or require highly specialized and scarce technical knowledge. This study presents audit procedures that follow a new approach. Instead of manually testing internal controls, automated procedures search for the absence of those controls. Process mining techniques are combined with advanced statistical analysis where process mining serves as a data analysis technique to create process models from the recorded transaction data. These are searched for critical data constellations in combination with an exploratory factor analysis to identify systematic deficiencies in the internal control system. The manual and time-intensive inspection of individual controls is replaced by automated audit procedures that cover the totality of recorded transactions. The study follows a design science approach and uses case study data for illustration.
