Mateship and egalitarianism in Henry Lawson’s short stories
Authors: Scheidt Déborah 
Published: September 2018

Mateship is an important element of the so-called “Australian Tradition” in literature. It consists of a particular bond between men who travel the rural areas known as “the bush” or “the outback”. This article examines some of Henry Lawson’s mateship stories, with a focus on the different connotations that the term can assume for the author, especially regarding the theme of egalitarianism. It considers how the Bulletin Magazine, which “discovered” Lawson and published many of his stories, had a role in fostering a special model of Australian democracy and a peculiar style for Australian literature. It also reflects on how the dissemination of Lawson’s stories through periodicals in the last decades of the 19th century helped create a feeling of what Benedict Anderson calls “nation-ness”.------------------------------------------------------------------------------------MATESHIP E IGUALITARISMO NOS CONTOS DE HENRY LAWSONMateship é um elemento importante da chamada “Tradição Australiana” na literatura. Refere-se a um vínculo especial entre homens que percorrem as áreas rurais conhecidas na Austrália como “the bush” ou “the outback”. Este artigo examina alguns dos contos de Henry Lawson que trazem esse elemento, com ênfase especial nas diferentes conotações que o termo pode assumir para o autor, especialmente com relação à temática do igualitarismo. O artigo considera como o periódico Bulletin, o qual “descobriu” Lawson e publicou vários de seus contos, foi relevante para a promoção de um modelo particular de democracia na Austrália e um estilo característico para a literatura local. O artigo também reflete sobre como a disseminação dos contos de Lawson por meio de periódicos na última década do século XIX contribuiu para a criação do que Benedict Anderson chama de “nation-ness”.---Artigo em inglês.
The Effect of Analysts' Disaggregated Forecasts on Investors and Managers: Evidence Using Pre-Tax Forecasts
Authors: Mauler Landon M. 
Published: September 2018

ABSTRACT
I examine whether analysts' tax forecasts are informative to investors and whether analysts' tax forecasts impact firm behavior. Using I/B/E/S data from 2002–2014, I find that investors utilize both analysts' pre- and after-tax earnings forecasts in evaluating firm performance, indicating analysts' tax forecasts are value-relevant. Furthermore, evidence that investors discount earnings management through the income tax expense is limited to firms with tax forecast coverage. In examining the impact of analysts' tax forecasts on firm behavior, I find analysts' tax forecast coverage is positively associated with quantitative and qualitative tax footnote disclosure. The results suggest that analysts' tax forecasts are value-relevant and that analysts' tax coverage impacts firm decisions related to the income tax expense account. This evidence informs academics and practitioners as to the role of analysts' tax forecasts.

Rationale.There have been only single studies conducted in the Russian Federation to characterize the posthumous donor population.Objective:Identifying the main characteristics of the donor pool in N.V. Sklifosovsky Research Institute for Emergency Medicine of Moscow Healthcare Department and in the State Research Center – A.I. Burnasyan Federal Medical Biophysical Center, FMBA, for the period from 2008–2017.Material and methods.The clinical records of 429 actual and effective posthumous donors were analyzed retrospectively. The following characteristics were studied: gender, age, permanent place of residence, cause of death, the duration of mechanical lung ventilation, type of donation, total number of harvested organs, and number of organs recovered per donor.Results.There were 281 male and 148 female donors. The increase in the mean age of donors from 37 to 48.5 years was noted. Cerebrovascular disease and traumatic brain injury became the main causes of death. Since 2012, the rate of cerebrovascular diseases as the cause of donor death has increased from 30% to 70%. Of 429 actual donors, the brain death was diagnosed in 366 (85.3%). Four hundred eight deceased became effective donors. A total of 1,247 donor organs (744 kidneys, 220 livers, 42 pancreas, 2 intestines, 180 hearts, 58 lungs, and 1 facial vascularized composite allograft) were obtained. The mean number of donor organs recovered per donor was 3.06.Conclusions.The results obtained can be used to develop unified protocols and results of posthumous donors and to assess the possible volume of transplant care. In the period 2008–2017 an increase in the average age of posthumous donors (from 38.1 to 48.7 years) due to the proportion of donors in the 18–29 age group (from 29 to 4%) and an increase in the proportion of donors in the age group over 60 (from 3 to 15%). From 2012 to 2017 (from 68 to 29%) due to an increase in the number of donors who died as a result of cerebrovascular diseases (from 30 to 71%). Among the posthumous donors delivered by ambulance teams directly to the intensive care units, 69% of the consciousness level was depressed to 5 and lower on the Glasgow coma scale.

Published: September 2018

Background. Kidney transplantation efficacy is limited by immunosuppression nephrotoxicity, antibody-mediated and chronic rejection. Avoiding immunosuppression nephrotoxicity is a promising strategy to improve long term outcomes. Belatacept, a synthetic immunoglobulin which blocks CD28-B7 pathway of T-lymphocyte costimulation, is considered as an alternative to calcineurin inhibitors in maintenance immunosuppression since it has no nephrotoxicity. Purpose: to evaluate belatacept efficacy and safety for maintenance immunosuppression therapy after kidney transplantatin based on the clinical experience.Material and methods. From March 2017 to May 2018, we used belatacept in five kidney transplant recipients (one female and four males aged from 4 to 21 years) in the Kidney Transplantation Department of Petrovsky National Research Centre of Surgery Three kidneys were taken from related living donors, two kidney grafts were from deceased donors. Conversion from CNI to belatacept was performed between 6 and 112 month after transplantation. Patients were followed-up for average 12 months after conversion. We have described here these five cases, providing individual indications and the outcome of conversion.Results. The conversion failed in two children switched to belatacept with the purpose to improve compliance. Three patients switched to belatacept because of tacrolimus toxicity demonstrated good results in one year follow up.Conclusion. Belatacept demonstrated good results if was used instead of calcineurin inhibitors when the latter were poorly tolerated. The use of belatacept in multidrug immunosuppression in noncompliant patients was ineffective.

Matrícula antecipada no ensino fundamental por mandado de segurança: implicações para as crianças
Authors: Oliveira Sueli , Vieira Lívia 
Published: September 2018

A Lei nº 11.274/2006 instituiu o ensino fundamental obrigatório com duração de nove anos, iniciando-se aos seis anos de idade. No estado de Minas Gerais, a data de corte – data de aniversário da criança para a matrícula ser efetivada – foi alterada várias vezes sem que os pais entendessem os motivos. O Poder Judiciário foi acionado para dirimir a questão da idade para a matrícula, com base nas normativas que estabeleceram a data de corte. Pais que, por mandados de segurança, obtiveram a matrícula de crianças no ensino fundamental em instituições particulares de ensino foram os sujeitos da pesquisa realizada na cidade de Poços de Caldas. Entrevista semiestruturada foi aplicada aos pais para se compreender suas percepções e concepções sobre a criança e a infância nesse contexto. Conclui-se que há um constante estado de tensão na educação da criança pequena entre preservar a infância e, ao mesmo tempo, tornar a criança competente, pensando no futuro mercado de trabalho.

Authors: Domingues Camila , Noronha Vânia 
Published: September 2018

Análise teórica sobre as representações culturais percebidas na relação entre crianças e brincadeiras, em especial aquelas possibilitadas pelos brinquedos construídos por elas mesmas. É apresentada a expressão “criança: sujeito eubrinquedo” para caracterizar a interação da própria criança em simbiose com objetos que ludicamente permitem que ela (re)construa seu mundo. A brincadeira é entendida como direito das crianças, e a experiência lúdica deve ser privilegiada nos currículos escolares da educação infantil, em consonância com os documentos legais para essa etapa da escolarização.
Entre o observado e o imaginado: do arco-íris à mecânica quântica
Authors: Campos Alexandre 
Published: September 2018

Se, por um lado, é na escola que se deve almejar a alfabetização científica, no sentido de o aluno ser apresentado à cultura científica, por outro, deve-se reconhecer que ele é portador de uma cultura própria, a infantil. Assim, durante o processo de apreensão da realidade, essas culturas atuam mutuamente, influenciando aquilo que se observa e a representação daquilo que se observa. É na psicologia cognitiva que nos apoiaremos para analisar os aspectos da realidade presentes nas representações das crianças na faixa dos 8 aos 10 anos sobre o fenômeno da difração. Com esse fim, algumas atividades foram realizadas para que as crianças observassem e registrassem possíveis diferenças entre espectros contínuos e discretos. A análise dos desenhos se deu por inferência, mediante possíveis aspectos da realidade (física, cotidiana ou da cultura infantil). Os resultados sugerem prevalência da cotidiana.
Sobre el mercado y las democracias: una propuesta de Komar y Melamid

Published: September 2018

A partir de una propuesta de Komar y Melamid, People’s Choice, este artículo desarrolla un paralelismo entre la posición de las personas ante el tema del gusto en el mundo del arte, en el que la afirmación de que la obra de arte es una mercancía fetiche hace mucho tiempo que está aceptada, y la posición de esas mismas personas en unas democracias supuestamente “desideologizadas”; tan supuestamente que al final pueden ser el lugar en el que el engaño y la promesa se dan cita.
Development of Foreign Language Speaking Skills through the Application of the Dynamic Model of Speech Production and Activating Methods
Authors: Pčolinská Adriana , Metruk Rastislav 
Published: September 2018

Abstract
The present time places considerable demands on the process of foreign language education both in the field of communication and information transfer. Teachers, occupying a pivotal role in this process, are not able to proceed with simple, lay approaches and methods. It has become more and more important to apply sophisticated approaches and methods in teaching which are based on primary and secondary researches. This paper discusses the Dynamic Model of Speech Production as a specific approach to EFL teaching. Furthermore, the application of activating methods in the process of teaching English as a foreign language is examined from the standpoint of gender, country, length of teaching practice, and type of university. The data was collected using a questionnaire about the use and the frequency of occurrence of activating methods, which was completed by 82 university teachers from the Slovak Republic and the Czech Republic.
Second Language Acquisition of the English Dative Alternation by Native Speakers of Arabic
Authors: Aljadani Anwar S. 
Published: September 2018

Abstract
This paper reports on an experimental study that investigates the influence of the disparity between English and Arabic on second language acquisition, namely the phenomenon of the acquisition of the English dative alternation by Arab learners. The disallowance of certain Arabic verbs to occur in the double object dative structure causes difficulty for Arab learners to acquire English as far as the acquisition of the dative alternation is concerned. The experiment is devised to examine whether Arab learners are sensitive to syntactic and semantic properties associated with the English dative alternation. The experiment involved picture tasks with two structures: the prepositional dative structure and the double object dative structure. Overall, the results of the experiment show that the L2 learners failed to acquire the double object dative structure which does not exist in their L1. Based on these results, it is argued that L1 has an important effect on the acquisition of L2.
The Contentious Debate over the Language Literature Division
Authors: Mart Cagri Tugrul 
Published: September 2018

Abstract
In the early 20th century literature was woven into language curriculum to endorse learners to acquire language structures and perform drills successfully. The actual use of the target language upstaged grammar instruction as the primary focus of language learning in the fields of language pedagogy. In the late 1960s and 1970s literature fell into disuse on the grounds that it was not in conformity with standard grammar rules and the widespread perception was that literature was complex and inaccessible for learners. In the late 1970s and 1980s a decisive swing against literature was experienced and literature came into prominence to enable learners to make huge leaps in language learning. Learners can reap many benefits from the inclusion of literature in foreign language teaching. In attempting to support their arguments of incorporating literature into language teaching a considerable number of researchers offer a number of reasons why literature is an ideal medium for extending language use. By means of inclusion of literature in language teaching, learners are at an advantage to acquire profound knowledge of language. The present paper investigates the language-literature division and focuses on the three phases with regard to the inclusion of literature in language teaching. The supportive role of literature in the development of language awareness is another issue the paper deals with.
Soft planning for soft spaces. Concept of Poznań metropolitan area development – a case study
Authors: Kaczmarek Tomasz 
Published: September 2018

Abstract
The article presents the essence, goals and instruments of soft (informal, non-statutory) spatial planning, developed in the countries of Western Europe and relatively new in Poland. It targets areas with fuzzy borders (soft spaces) and areas between administration tiers. The article presents conceptual issues and non-formal planning tools used in Western Europe. The planning approaches which are generally described as “soft” are characterised by non-formalised and non-binding procedures, and by their focus on achieving a consensus. In the first part of the article presents the conceptual issues and further informal planning instruments used in Western European countries at different spatial scales The following section presents deficits of spatial planning of metropolitan areas and - against this background - the legitimacy of creating informal plans in Poland, using Metropolia Poznań as an example
Cartographic presentation – from simple to complex map
Authors: Korycka-Skorupa Jolanta , Nowacki Tomasz 
Published: September 2018

Abstract
Nowadays a lot of people are trying to make maps, and especially digital maps. A wide range of computer tools and high graphic capabilities have together made maps increasingly popular and seemingly easy to prepare for any person who can use a computer. It seems necessary to verify the bases of the cartographic presentation methods. There is a need for a new, formalized view of the method as a sequence of steps from data collection, to correct presentation, to map. Two terms related to cartographic presentation should be distinguished in this article: “methods” and “forms.” A method is understood as the process by which data is transformed into a presentation. A form is understood as the end result of this process, i.e. the resulting graphical image or map. In the article five types of cartographic presentation are indicated. In the successive types, one can observe an increasing degree of complexity of cartographic presentation.
Market Forecasts and Client Behavioral Data: Towards Finding Adequate Model Complexity
Authors: Deac Dan Stelian , Schebesch Klaus Bruno 
Published: September 2018

Abstract
Using efficient marketing strategies for understanding and improving the relation between vendors and clients rests upon analyzing and forecasting a wealth of data which appear at different time resolutions and at levels of aggregation. More often than not, market success does not have consistent explanations in terms of a few independent influence factors. Indeed, it may be difficult to explain why certain products or services tend to sell well while others do not. The rather limited success of finding general explanations from which to draw specific conclusions good enough in order to generate forecasting models results in our proposal to use data driven models with no strong prior hypothesis concerning the nature of dependencies between potentially relevant variables. If the relations between the data are not purely random, then a general or flexible enough data driven model will eventually identify them. However, this may come at a high cost concerning computational resources and with the risk of overtraining. It may also preclude any useful on-line or real time applications of such models. In order to remedy this, we propose a modeling cycle which provides information about the adequacy of a model complexity class and which also highlights some nonstandard measures of expected model performance.
