A second species in the siphonous green algal genusAvrainvilleawas recently discovered off the island of O‘ahu in the Main Hawaiian Islands. Specimens were collected from Honolulu Harbor, including its entrance channel, and near Ke‘ehi Harbor. These locations are both in Mālama Bay on O‘ahu’s south shore in or adjacent to urbanized estuaries, respectively.In situobservations, morphological and molecular assessments were conducted to examine the alga’s habit and distribution, as well as to assess its putative species identification.The alga occurred in sand as single individuals or in clusters of several individuals at both sites, and near or within seagrass beds (Halophiladecipiens) and algal meadows composed of the green algaHalimedakanaloanaand an unidentifiedUdoteaspecies at the Ke‘ehi Harbor site. All analyses supported both populations as representative of the same taxa, reported until further investigation in the broad Pacific as Avrainvilleacf.erecta based on morphological and molecular analyses. This record of a secondAvrainvilleaspecies in Hawai'i is of particular concern considering that an alga recognized asA.amadelpha, first observed in 1981 from two locales on O‘ahu’s south shore, has become invasive in Hawai‘i’s intertidal to mesophotic environments.
Code de gouvernance et gestion des résultats comptables : le cas des sociétés françaises cotées
Authors: Elage Adam , Mard Yves 
Published: October 2018

Suite aux crises et scandales financiers successifs, les codes de gouvernance, comprenant un ensemble de recommandations volontaires, se sont développés de par le monde. A ce jour, la question de leur efficacité reste largement ouverte et débattue dans le contexte international, et français en particulier. L’objectif de l’article est d’étudier l’influence de la conformité à un code de gouvernance sur les pratiques de gestion des résultats en France. Cette question se pose notamment après la mise en place de la loi DDAC (2008), qui prévoit pour les sociétés cotées françaises la référence à un code de gouvernance selon le principe « appliquer ou expliquer ». Les résultats de l’étude montrent que les sociétés de l’indice SBF120 ont renforcé progressivement leur mise en conformité au code sur la période (2006-2013). Par ailleurs, la conformité au code (et l’évolution de cette conformité) sont associées négativement à la gestion comptable et réelle des résultats. Les dispositions du code relatives au conseil de direction et aux comités spécialisés semblent limiter la gestion des résultats, alors que les dispositions relatives aux dirigeants et à leurs rémunérations sont sans effet sur cette gestion. Ces résultats semblent confirmer l’impact favorable du code de gouvernance sur la qualité des résultats comptables.
Gouverner la voirie urbaine par l’information de l’automobiliste. Une comparaison Lyon-Paris, des années 1920 à nos jours
Authors: Baldasseroni Louis , Charansonney Luc 
Published: October 2018

L’information des automobilistes est un élément-clé des politiques de gestion des voies urbaines. L’analyse comparée des cas de Lyon et Paris entre les années 1920 et 2010 montre que les dispositifs actuels d’information aux automobilistes résultent de l’empilement de trois strates politiques et techniques. Au cours de la période, Paris et Lyon suivent sensiblement les mêmes orientations politiques. Cependant, Paris ne constitue pas un modèle pour Lyon : l’autonomie locale conduit à des réponses techniques différentes aux problèmes de gestion de la circulation. Des années 1920 aux années 1940, l’automobiliste est vu par le gestionnaire comme un individu qui doit être guidé et discipliné, surtout par des panneaux de signalisation statiques. Par la suite, des années 1950 aux années 1970, les autorités gèrent des flux plus que des individus. Des systèmes centraux, reposant sur des capteurs dans la chaussée, et dédiés aux gestionnaires, sont mis en place en parallèle d’une politique d’infrastructures nouvelles. Suite au choc pétrolier, l’information aux automobilistes devient multimodale. Le conducteur est de nouveau vu comme un individu se déplaçant et en quête d’information. Dans les années 1990, le gestionnaire fournit une information centralisée à l’automobiliste, par le biais des panneaux à message variable et sites internet publics. Parallèlement, les systèmes embarqués permettent à des entreprises privées de collecter des données de trafic et de fournir de l’information directement à leurs clients-automobilistes, sans passer par le gestionnaire. Cela influe sur les rapports public-privé dans la gouvernance du trafic.
Dockers, métallos, ménagères : Mouvements sociaux et cultures militantes au Havre (1912-1923)
Authors: Barzman John 
Published: October 2018

Guerres européennes, âpres luttes sociales, grandes usines et communisme, c’était la naissance du vingtième siècle. Aujourd'hui, les guerres sont brèves et plus lointaines, la concertation est de mise dans les relations sociales, la grande usine se fait rare et le communisme paraît avoir perdu de sa force. Le temps de l'analyse est arrivé.

En 1919, Clémenceau s'adressait à une fraction de la population française et l'appelait “ classe ouvrière ”, comme si elle avait une identité collective et des projets communs. Avait-il tort ? En tout cas, il est clair qu’il existait une culture qui se définissait comme “ ouvrière ”, et que celle-ci a profondément marqué tout le siècle. Comment s’est construit cette identité collective, aujourd'hui concurrencée par les communautarismes et battue en brèche par l'individualisme du consommateur et du chercheur d’emploi ? C’est la première question posée ici.

La deuxième concerne le communisme. Certains historiens soulignent la force de l’influence russe. D’autres font valoir la division durable entre révolutionnaires et réformistes qui fut le produit des grandes luttes sociales de 1917 à 1922, en France même. Que nous apprend une étude rapprochée de cette période formative ?

John Barzman s’est efforcé de répondre à ces questions dans son analyse du petit peuple havrais au cours de cette période mouvementée.
L’Estuaire de la Seine
Authors: Lecoquierre Bruno 
Published: October 2018

L'histoire semble parfois s’accélérer. En cette fin de siècle, l’estuaire de la Seine est, de toute évidence, soumis à cette multiplication des projets qui engagent l’avenir. En l’espace de dix ans, trois chantiers majeurs y ont ainsi trouvé leur aboutissement : le pont de Normandie, la réserve naturelle de l’estuaire et le projet « Port 2000 ». Ces projets, parfois concurrents, interviennent tous au sein d’un même espace. Ils ouvrent ainsi la voie à des conflits d’intérêt que l’Etat et les acteurs locaux s’emploient à résoudre, tout en essayant de jeter les bases d’un développement équilibré et durable.

Ces projets sont cependant le résultat de dynamiques ancrées dans une histoire déjà ancienne ; celles-ci ont fait de l’estuaire un espace en perpétuelle mutation. Le pont de Normandie représente ainsi l’aboutissement d’un long processus ; on a toujours cherché, depuis plus d’un siècle, à franchir l’estuaire le plus loin possible vers l’aval...
IL-4 and IL-13 Guide Early Thymic Progenitors To Mature toward Dendritic Cells
Authors: Barik Subhasis , Cattin-Roy Alexis N. , Miller Mindy M. , Ukah Tobechukwu K. , Zaghouani Habib 
Published: October 2018

Abstract
Recently we reported that IL-4 and IL-13 signaling in murine early thymic progenitors (ETPs) expressing the heteroreceptor (HR) comprising IL-4 receptor α (IL-4Rα) and IL-13 receptor α 1 (IL-13Rα1) activate STAT6 and inhibit ETP maturation potential toward T cells. In this study, we asked whether IL-4 and IL-13 signaling through the HR mobilizes other STAT molecules to shape ETP fate decision. The findings indicate that HR+ ETPs undergoing cytokine signaling display increased STAT1, but not STAT3, phosphorylation in addition to STAT6 activation. In parallel, the ETPs had a STAT1-dependent heightened expression of IRF-8, a transcription factor essential for development of CD8α+ dendritic cells (DCs). Interestingly, STAT1 phosphorylation and IRF-8 upregulation, which are independent of STAT6 activation, guided ETP maturation toward myeloid cells with a CD8α+ DC phenotype. Furthermore, these CD8α+ DCs display a thymic resident phenotype, as they did not express SIRPα, a molecule presumed to be involved in cell migration. These findings suggest that IL-4 and IL-13 cytokine-induced HR signaling provides a double-edged sword that simultaneously blocks T cell lineage potential but advances myeloid maturation that could impact T cell selection and central tolerance.

Published: October 2018

Abstract
Background: Carcinoma cervix is one of the two most common cancers of Indian women with very high morbidity and mortality burden. Although India probably is the leading country in numbers patients of cervix treated radically with combination of teletherapy and brachytherapy (BT), there is presumed diversity of practice across the country due to the inequality of available infrastructure, absence of uniform the training of the radiation oncologists, and absence of any national guidelines. The present survey was conducted to determine current practice patterns in management of locally advanced carcinoma cervix with regard to gynecologic high-dose-rate among the radiation oncologist across the country. Methodology: A 25-item survey was undertaken to study the standard management pattern of Stage IIB–IIIB cervical cancer with special emphasis on the BT practice patterns among various young radiation oncologist working across the country. The survey was undertaken in person in the form of interview questionnaire among the younger members of association of radiation oncologist of India during two national conferences, along with telephonic interview of other members as obtained from the national directory. Results: About 57 young radiation oncologists from 57 centers across the country were surveyed. 25 of them represented private nonacademic centers, 24 represented government academic centers, the rest were from private academic, nongovernmental organization (NGO) run and other centers. The most common teletherapy dose prescribed was 46 Gy/23# for Stage II, and50 Gy/25 # for Stage III disease. HDR after loader with 192Ir is the most common machine (82.6%) in use and computed tomography scan is the most commonly (30/57) used imaging for planning. The most common intracavitary dose pattern for all stages was 7 Gy × 3 fractions (30/57s) and 9 Gy × 2 (12/57) fractions. Although in most centers, computed tomography-based delineation of organs at risk is done routinely; however, target volume delineation and dose prescription/optimization for the same is routinely done in handful of centers (5/57). The mean planned dose to Point A for combined external-beam radiation and BT (EQD210) wasabout 77.5 Gy for Stage IIIB and 72.6 Gy for Stage II disease. Conclusion: Although fractionation patterns may vary, the overall mean dose administered for cervical cancer is similar across the country, which is slightly lower than the recommended doses as per stage by various international guidelines.
Community-based study on the knowledge, awareness, and practices of females towards breast cancer in Buraimi, Oman
Authors: Chattu Vijay Kumar , Kumary Soosanna , Bhagavathula Akshaya Srikanth 
Published: October 2018

Abstract
Background: In Oman, a higher proportion of patients presented with breast cancer are relatively young age and with an advanced stage. This could be due to lack of awareness and knowledge about breast cancer among young women. Aim: To assess the breast cancer knowledge, awareness and factors associated with the practice of breast self-examination (BSE) among females in Buraimi, Oman. Methods: A cross-sectional survey was conducted among females attending the two days health exhibition event at a polyclinc, in Al-Buraimi, governorate. A pretested questionnaire to assess their knowledge, awareness and practices concerned to breast cancer was used. The collected data was categorized, analyzed using descriptive statistics and logistic regression model. All the statistical analysis was performed using SPSS 21.0 version. Results: Out of the total of one hundred and eighty nine (189) participants, 80% had information of breast cancer. Participants had better knowledge of symptoms but less knowledge about risk factors. When probed about BSE, only 43% performed it and only 21% of them do it monthly on regular basis. The main reasons for regular monthly BSE is mainly because of fear of breast cancer (9%), doctor's advice (6%) and awareness through media (5%). Conclusion: Our study participants showed insufficient knowledge in some areas related to sign and symptoms and risk factors of breast cancer and identified a negative influence of low knowledge on the practice of BSE. Thus, educational interventions need to be emphasized to provide comprehensive information of breast cancer.
Cloud liquid water path in the sub-Arctic region of Europe as derived from ground-based and space-borne remote observations
Authors: Kostsov Vladimir S. , Kniffka Anke , Ionov Dmitry V. 
Published: October 2018

Abstract. Tropospheric clouds are a very important component of the climate system and
the hydrological cycle in the Arctic and sub-Arctic. Liquid water path
(LWP) is one of the key parameters of clouds urgently needed for a variety of
studies, including the snow cover and climate modelling at northern
latitudes. A joint analysis was made of the LWP values obtained from observations by
the SEVIRI satellite instrument and from ground-based observations by the
RPG-HATPRO microwave radiometer near St Petersburg, Russia (60∘ N,
30∘ E). The time period of selected data sets spans 2
years (December 2012–November 2014) excluding winter months, since the
specific requirements for SEVIRI observations restrict measurements at
northern latitudes in winter when the solar zenith angle is too large. The
radiometer measurement site is located very close to the shore of the Gulf of
Finland, and our study has revealed considerable differences between the LWP
values obtained by SEVIRI over land and over water areas in the region under
investigation. Therefore, special attention was paid to the analysis of
the LWP spatial distributions derived from SEVIRI observations at scales from
15 to 150 km in the vicinity of St Petersburg. Good agreement between the
daily median LWP values obtained from the SEVIRI and the RPG-HATPRO
observations was shown: the rms difference was estimated at
0.016 kg m−2 for a warm season and 0.048 kg m−2 for a cold
season. Over 7 months (February–May and August–October), the SEVIRI
and the RPG-HATPRO instruments revealed similar diurnal variations in LWP,
while considerable discrepancies between the diurnal variations obtained by
the two instruments were detected in June and July. On the basis of
reanalysis data, it was shown that the LWP diurnal cycles are
characterised by considerable interannual variability.
The “Wilderness” in Hosea and Deuteronomy: A Case of Thematic Reappropriation
Authors: Smith Cooper 
Published: October 2018

Abstract
Among many similarities, Hosea and Deuteronomy also share the use of the word מִדְּבָּר (midbār, “wilderness”) in service of a wilderness sojourn theme that emphasizes Yhwh’s gracious actions of provision and protection despite Israel’s rebellion. Although the scholarly consensus asserts that each book draws on a different sojourn tradition, an analysis of their sojourn themes based on their use of מִדְּבָּר reveals similar features: the word מִדְּבָּר is present in positive contexts that emphasize Yhwh’s gracious actions on Israel’s behalf in the wilderness and is absent in negative contexts that recount Israel’s rebellion. These similarities are apparent when compared to the rhetoric of the wilderness in Numbers that displays the opposite pattern. The tendency of Deuteronomy and Hosea to use מִדְּבָּר in contexts of Yhwh’s activity and omit it in contexts of Israel’s rebellion during the sojourn is unique in the OT to such an extent that it is likely that one tradition is borrowing from the other. Further, and contrary to the usual dating of these books, four arguments indicate that Hosea borrows and reappropriates Deuteronomy’s wilderness sojourn theme. Owing to these arguments and the well-integrated nature of the wilderness theme in Deuteronomy, it is argued that Hosea follows after and is dependent on a well-developed Deuteronomic tradition that substantively resembles the canonical book of Deuteronomy. Further, appreciation of the wilderness themes and Hosea’s dependence on the Deuteronomic tradition allow for hermeneutical observations that contribute to the interpretation of both books.

Platformsøkonomien og prekariatet
Authors: Rasmussen Stine , Madsen Per Kongshøj 
Published: October 2018

Denne artikel anlægger et arbejdsmarkedsperspektiv på det nye fænomen ’deleøkonomi’ eller ’platformsøkonomi’, som i artiklen anvendes som en mere retvisende term for fænomenet. Artiklens formål er dels at indkredse og beskrive, hvilke arbejdsrelaterede aktiviteter der findes i den fremvoksende platformsøkonomi i Danmark, dels at diskutere og vurdere, hvilke udfordringer der er ved platformsøkonomien, og hvordan den trækker nye og mere usikre ansættelsesformer med sig. Platformsøkonomien er i en dansk kontekst både teoretisk og empirisk et underbelyst område, hvilket begrunder artiklens eksplorative karakter.
Healthcare reform and practice choices: A survey of osteopathic medical students
Authors: Ross-Lee Barbara , Shubrook Jay H. , Solomon Jeff A. 
Published: October 2018

Abstract
Medical students are major stakeholders in the changing world of healthcare. Initiatives to change the specialty makeup and geographic distribution of the physician workforce, changes in the organization of healthcare delivery systems, and financing systems for healthcare will profoundly alter their practice environment while they are in school and just beginning to make career decisions. The decisions of osteopathic medical students, who currently make up 300/0 of the profession, will shape the profession's response to the new initiatives and determine its place in emerging healthcare systems. The authors surveyed first and second-year osteopathic medical students to ascertain their perceived knowledge, opinions, and intentions as they relate to healthcare reform. They discovered that increasing numbers of students intend to practice in primary care fields. The student respondents support some of the major changes proposed by reformers in greater numbers than physicians as a whole, and have different priorities that they would like to see addressed in reform. This study reveals links between respondents' intentions to practice primary care and support for specific reform items, but the results show no link between anticipated indebtedness and respondents' intentions to enter primary care or specialty fields. The authors conclude that healthcare reform, although still in debate, has already exerted an influence on the decision-making processes of medical students.
Atrophy of suboccipital muscles in patients with chronic pain: A pilot study
Authors: Greenman Philip E. , Hallgren Richard C. , Rechtien James J. 
Published: October 2018

Abstract
Magnetic resonance imaging studies were performed in six patients with chronic head and neck pain and in five control subjects to determine whether irreversible atrophic changes resulting in destruction of muscle fibers have a role in patients with chronic pain specific to the cervical spine. Both groups of subjects had medical history obtained and underwent physical examination and proton density-weighted (PD-weighted) magnetic resonance imaging. Subjects with chronic pain had substantial restriction of motion. Axial proton density-weighted images of the rectus capitis major and minor muscles were examined. In the subjects with chronic pain, the muscles had high signal intensity, indicating replacement of dead suboccipital skeletal muscle with fatty tissue. This infiltration was not observed in the control subjects who were free of significant motion restrictions and had no history of recurring neck and head pain. Analysis of pixel intensity values confirmed this finding. The reduction in proprioceptive afferent activity in affected muscles may cause increased facilitation of neural activity that is perceived as pain. A least mean squares algorithm was used to define a linear estimating equation for each subject. linear regression analysis, using an alpha level <.005, was used to determine how well each subject's data fit the estimating equation. This preliminary work indicates substantial infiltration of fatty tissue into suboccipital muscles of some subjects being treated for chronic head and neck pain.
Medical liability, product liability, and the question of tort reform
Authors: Ross-Lee Barbara , Kiss Lois E. , Weiser Michael A. 
Published: October 2018

Abstract
Physicians have identified malpractice reform as their first priority during the recent flurry of national reform initiatives. Their focus on malpractice, however, tends to obscure the relationship between malpractice and the systemic problems wracking our healthcare delivery system. Because malpractice has an impact on all three foci of comprehensive reform-quality, cost, and access-it is reasonable to expect healthcare reform to include some manner of tort reform. However, it is important to realize the tangential nature of the relationship and keep the focus of reform on the underlying issues of system reform. The authors define the areas of physician liability under tort law (both malpractice and product liability), point out the misperceptions that inform physician behavior, and review the individual reforms proposed. They identify the stakeholders and their positions on each proposal, while imploring a cooperative, systemwide approach to tort reform.
