The effects of the economic crisis on active citizenship among young people in Spain and what we can do about it through civic education in universities
Authors: Naval Concepción , Arbués Elena 
Published: November 2016

Abstract
The recent economic crisis has had a particularly serious consequence for young people, who have suffered from a delayed transition into adulthood as a result of unemployment and job insecurity and delayed independent living. This has been particularly the case for Spain and there is a concern that these experiences of unemployment may lead to social exclusion and isolation. This article argues that learning social and civic skills may well allow young people to maintain their social connectedness and self-worth by enabling them to make connections with their local community. One institution that could offer these learning opportunities, we argue, is the university. In this article we identify the possibilities and limitations for Spanish universities to promote social and civic learning. We conclude by evaluating the support that higher education can offer young people in the context of the crisis and continued austerity.
‘Ultra-left’ anarchists and anti-fascism in the Second Republic
Authors: Evans Danny 
Published: November 2016

Abstract
This article investigates the anarchist understanding of fascism during the Second Republic, and particularly during the abstention campaign of 1933, when the practice of radicals in the National Confederation of Labour (CNT) has been described as ‘ultra-left’ in view of its sectarianism and insistence on the need for an insurrectionary response to the threat of the right. The article explores the comparison made to the German Communist Party (KPD) during the so-called ‘Third Period’, and the lessons that anarchists in Spain attempted to draw from the rise of Hitler.
«Con fuerza de ley»

El proceso de construcción de un imaginario musical nacional, a lo largo de la historia de la República Argentina, cuenta con numerosos antecedentes. Entre alguno de ellos, el perío- do 1946-1955, contará con las instituciones del gobierno nacional como su principal pro- motor. Con el inicio del primer peronismo se produce una serie de transformaciones en el ámbito de la radiodifusión y la educación que tendrán directa injerencia en este proceso. Con una fuerte impronta proteccionista, las modificaciones que impulsó el Estado nacio- nal contemplaron la selección de repertorios provenientes de distintos ámbitos de la reali- dad musical de aquellos días. El presente trabajo propone revisar a partir de algunos textos normativos, en su mayoría aún desconocidos, cómo estas políticas de Estado se articularon para difundir a escala nacional un repertorio de «música argentina».
Oscillation results for third order nonlinear mixed neutral differential equations
Authors: Panigrahi S. , Basu R. 
Published: November 2016

AbstractIn this paper, the authors study oscillatory and asymptotic behavior of solutions of a class of nonlinear third order neutral differential equations with positive and negative coefficients of the form(E)(a(t)(b(t)(y(t)+p(t)y(σ(t)))′)′)′+q(t)G(y(α(t)))−h(t)H(y(β(t)))=0$$\begin{equation*}(a(t)(b(t)(y(t)+p(t)y(\sigma(t)))^{\prime})^{\prime})^{\prime} +q(t)G(y(\alpha(t)))-h(t)H(y(\beta(t)))=0 \tag{E}\end{equation*}$$for 0 ⩽p(t) ⩽p1<1 and −1 <p2⩽p(t) ⩽ 0. The results in this paper generalize the results of [LI, T.—ZHANG, C.—XING, G.:Oscillation of third-order neutral delay differential equations, Abstr. Appl. Anal.2012(2012), Article ID 569201] and various results in the literature. We establish new conditions which guarantees that every solutions of (E) either oscillatory or converges to zero. Examples are considered to illustrate the main results.
Historical-mythical roots of the legend of Marko Kraljević
Authors: Sang Hun Kim , Hyok Jae Kwon 
Published: November 2016

Summary
Marko Kraljević is the central figure of South Slavic epic poetry, the protagonist of hundreds of poems and legends, and epic traditions in general. In the frameworks of Serbian and South Slavic folklore (beside the legend of the Battle of Kosovo) the epic legend of Kraljević Marko is certainly best known and, nevertheless, most complex. For this reason, in the course of the last 150 years, it has been the research subject of numerous folkloristic, literary, ethnological, ethno-mythological and other studies. In this paper we shall address the historical and mythical roots of the epic character of Marko Kraljević, drawing from the works of other researchers of this subject. Our preliminary assumption is that the epic character of Marko Kraljević was not based exclusively on the historical figure of King Marko Mrnjavčević, rather it included other prototypes of historical and mythic personalities as well. Some of them are associated with distant periods in ancient history.
Topic Detection Based on Weak Tie Analysis: A Case Study of LIS Research
Authors: Wei Ling , Xu Haiyun , Wang Zhenmeng , Dong Kun , Wang Chao , Fang Shu 
Published: November 2016

Abstract

Purpose
Based on the weak tie theory, this paper proposes a series of connection indicators of weak tie subnets and weak tie nodes to detect research topics, recognize their connections, and understand their evolution.

Design/methodology/approach
First, keywords are extracted from article titles and preprocessed. Second, high-frequency keywords are selected to generate weak tie co-occurrence networks. By removing the internal lines of clustered sub-topic networks, we focus on the analysis of weak tie subnets’ composition and functions and the weak tie nodes’ roles.

Findings
The research topics’ clusters and themes changed yearly; the subnets clustered with technique-related and methodology-related topics have been the core, important subnets for years; while close subnets are highly independent, research topics are generally concentrated and most topics are application-related; the roles and functions of nodes and weak ties are diversified.

Research limitations
The parameter values are somewhat inconsistent; the weak tie subnets and nodes are classified based on empirical observations, and the conclusions are not verified or compared to other methods.

Practical implications
The research is valuable for detecting important research topics as well as their roles, interrelations, and evolution trends.

Originality/value
To contribute to the strength of weak tie theory, the research translates weak and strong ties concepts to co-occurrence strength, and analyzes weak ties’ functions. Also, the research proposes a quantitative method to classify and measure the topics’ clusters and nodes.

Surface analytical model and sorption artifact designing method
Authors: Ren Xiaoping , Wang Jian , Wilson Ombati , Wang Yong , Chen Bai-fan , Cai Chang-qing 
Published: November 2016

<p class="Abstract">Mass standards with alternative shapes are difficult to design due to the number of complex parameters. An analytical model based on surface sorption experiments is presented to study adsorption. This model is based on an optimization algorithm that is conceptualized to help to design the best sorption artefacts. Experimental artefacts, cylinder-weight and stack-weight, were of the same volume but different surface areas. This algorithm in essence determines the optimum surface of the artefact. After machining the artefact, surface sorption measurements were carried out. A sorption experiment was done by transferring the artefact from air to a vacuum. Then the surface sorption model was set up which represented the relationship between sorption coefficient, time <em>t</em> and relative humidity <em>h. </em>Logarithmic models were used to fit the variation of sorption coefficient per relative humidity <em>h </em>with time <em>t</em>.</p>

Case:A 55-year-old man presented with a history of forefoot pain and swelling. Radiographs revealed a mass with internal calcifications and osseous erosion of the fifth metatarsophalangeal bone. The mass was isointense to muscle on T1-weighted magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and hyperintense on T2-weighted MRI. A biopsy was performed, and intraoperatively, the lesion appeared as chalky white material, which under polarized light microscopy was composed of weakly positively birefringent rhomboid crystals, leading to a diagnosis of tophaceous pseudogout.Conclusion:Tophaceus pseudogout should be included in the differential diagnosis of neoplastic-appearing lesions in the foot, and polarized light microscopy should be used when examining biopsy specimens.
Improving People’s Lives: The Perfect Day
Authors: Meehan Nathan 
Published: November 2016

President's column
What constitutes a perfect day? It depends. To a surfer, it is a day of warm sunshine and perfect waves. To sports fans, perhaps a great win by their favorite team. We each have our own idea of what makes a perfect day.
Another aspect of a perfect day may not be a conscious thought but is of utmost importance: arriving home safely at the end of the day. Last month, I wrote about how the Society of Petroleum Engineers’ (SPE) mission statement reflects the role of the Society and its members in serving the public benefit. This month, let us discuss how we are going beyond statements to actions to improve people’s lives by not only enabling affordable energy, but also by doing it in the healthiest, safest, and most environmentally responsible way possible.
HSE: An Evolving Approach
When I started my career, the topic of health, safety, and environment (HSE) was often seen as a regulatory obligation to meet government requirements. HSE is now recognized as the “right thing to do” for two very important reasons.
It is part of our moral and ethical responsibility to our employees, customers, contractors, the communities in which we work, and to the future of our planet.
HSE is good for business. There is no downside to good HSE practices. Conversely, the cost of poor practices can drive companies out of business.
More organizations are striving to eliminate or significantly reduce HSE incident occurrences. This trend in performance improvements over the past decade has plateaued. We need a breakthrough. This will not occur overnight; it will require a journey.
Getting to Zero
SPE has a long commitment to HSE and I strongly encourage you to visit its website at spe.org/hsenow. This free website for HSE professionals is an informative public resource. HSE is a growing discipline within SPE globally. OnePetro (www. onepetro.org) now has 6,000 published HSE papers. As the number of professionals sharing knowledge on HSE increases, SPE offers the ideal place where they can gather, access resources, increase learning, and collaborate to improve industry practices.
Subsea Condition Monitoring: Does Effective Diagnosis Increase Availability?
Authors: Serene Chen Yuru , Chze Leong Pei 
Published: November 2016

Management
The challenges encountered in deepwater development have led to the use of increasingly complex subsea systems. Consequently, operators have become more reliant on subsea monitoring equipment and instrumentation to provide field information for understanding production and equipment conditions. Production monitoring is typically the field operator’s main priority, and equipment condition and performance are sometimes overlooked, resulting in equipment failures and long production downtimes because of unplanned maintenance.
Equipment failures often occur without warning and may sometimes, when caused by environmental factors, become inevitable. To determine the cause, field operators sift through vast amounts of distributed data from the subsea control system.
The system downtime can be reduced and system availability can be increased by performing effective equipment diagnosis. With the current low-oil-price environment, subsea operators are looking to maximize returns on investment, and condition-based monitoring offers the possibility of lowering operational expenses while increasing field production.
Condition Monitoring
Condition monitoring is a proactive maintenance strategy combining software and people. Data are used to diagnose changes in the integrity of a system such that corrective action may be planned in a cost-effective manner to increase system availability. Condition monitoring is not a novel technology and is currently used in the aeronautical and automobile industries. The condition monitoring system takes integrity monitoring beyond traditional key performance indicators by utilizing all available data and information from the system and looking for trends of equipment degradation prior to equipment failure.
A condition monitoring system is typically based on the following three-step monitoring process:
Data Collection: Read-only software to acquire real-time and historical knowledge from the subsea control system. Storing historical data and supporting analysis based on historical trends.
Analysis: Onshore analysis server applies statistical analysis, signal processing, mathematical modeling, and simulations to ascertain system conditions. Requires experience-based product knowledge and reliability analysis to target known failure modes and performance issues. System may be tuned and updated in order to continuously improve its online diagnostic performance.
Collaboration and Discussion: Estimation of potential impact on production (availability) is built into the system based on operational and maintenance philosophy. With remote surveillance, multiple onshore and offshore users are able to operate the system on a web-based graphical user interface for monitoring and troubleshooting of the subsea field. To simplify monitoring, each component and associated potential failure mode is designed with its individual user interface.
Aligning Diverse Portfolios and Execution for Capital Efficiency
Authors: Carpenter Chris 
Published: November 2016

This article, written by JPT Technology Editor Chris Carpenter, contains highlights of paper OTC 26061, “Aligning Diverse Portfolio and Execution for Capital Efficiency,” by Martijn Dekker, Shell; Paul McNutt, ConocoPhillips; Greg Roder, Woodside Energy; Stuart Wheaton, Tullow Oil, and Sandeep Khurana, Granherne, prepared for the 2015 Offshore Technology Conference, Houston, 4–7 May. The paper has not been peer reviewed.
Aligning a diverse portfolio with an organization’s execution capabilities and capacity is imperative in achieving capital efficiency and meeting shareholder expectations. Constructing a portfolio that provides both cash flow and long-term growth is a challenge. There should also be a direct connection of the organization’s strategy with its investment proposition. Should companies mitigate risk by diversification across countries, asset types, or play types? Or, alternatively, should they be a focused “pure-play” organization, leaving the investment diversification to the investors themselves?
Industry Trends
As complicated as the oil and gas business may seem at times, at its core it is quite simple. It begins by acquiring prospective acreage and exploring to find resources. To realize the value, produced oil and gas then has to be connected to the markets. But connecting the three links of this process (Resource/Develop/Market) alone is insufficient. There are external factors, such as interacting with host governments, communities, regulators, or public policy, that must be satisfied. It is only when these factors are combined appropriately, and their impacts understood, that value can be realized. All these aspects must be considered in constructing an oil and gas portfolio. From a historical perspective, the gaps that exist between finding the resource, developing it, and delivering it to the market for consumers have widened.
Portfolio Composition
Significantly different net-cash-flow profiles (Fig. 1) apply to different oil plays such as deep water and ultradeep water, unconventional, oil sands, and gas plays such as those requiring integrated liquefied natural gas (LNG), floating LNG, or the emerging coal-seam-gas (CSG) conversion to LNG. These differences make construction of a portfolio mix, and arriving at its risk weighting, a challenge.

Introduction:Cognitive Remediation Therapy is a new rehabilitation approach that has been created in order to improve cognitive functions such as attention, memory and executive function. We aimed to investigate the effects of one type of Cognitive Remediation Therapy, the Frontal/Executive Program, on cognitive function, social function, and psychiatric symptoms in the chronic phase schizophrenia patients.Methods:Seventeen participants who gave consent were randomly assigned to an intervention group (n=8) or control group (n=9). The intervention consisted of 44 sessions of FEP over a period of approximately six months. Cognitive function, social function, and psychiatric symptoms were evaluated before and after the intervention and before and after a roughly six-month long period for controls. Results: The present study showed improvements in Brief Assessment of Cognition in Schizophrenia-Japanese version composite score and subscales of verbal memory and working memory. Improvements were also observed in overall evaluation in the Schizophrenia Cognition Rating Scale-Japanese version, total Positive and Negative Syndrome Scale score and the Global Assessment of Functioning Scale score. FEP is considered to improve the performance of cognitive function tests and social function tests and psychiatric symptoms tests that are the target of this training.Conclusion:Intervention by Frontal/Executive Program improved cognitive function and psychiatric symptoms in patients with chronic schizophrenia with long disease duration who require large doses of medication. Significant effects of intervention were observed in overall patient, informant and interviewer evaluation in social function test. FEP is a training method the primary means pencil and paper, it is possible to inexpensively implement when compared to the other CRT that uses a computer. There is an advantage that less economic cost.
The Anglo-German Alliance Talks and the Failure of Amateur Diplomacy
Authors: Lajeunesse Adam 
Published: November 2016

In 1914 Great Britain and the German Empire were implacable enemies, embroiled in the greatest war the world had ever known. However, little more than a decade previously relations between these two great powers were far different. From 1898-1903 the two states were engaged in extensive negotiations meant to cement their friendship with an Anglo-German alliance. The ultimate failure of these talks was largely the result of amateur diplomacy. It was the failure of men like Joseph Chamberlain and Hermann von Eckardstein who, through their impetuous and occasionally
dishonest dealings, prevented the honest and constructive discourse which could have led the negotiations to a successful conclusion.
The Alberta Eugenics Movement and the 1937 Amendment to the Sexual Sterilization Act
Authors: Dack W Mikkel 
Published: November 2016

The scholarly study of eugenics legislation in Alberta has been seriously limited as research has focused on the province’s original Sterilization Act, passed in March 1928, and on the political, social, and economic conditions of the 1920s. Although the 1928 Act was of great significance, being the first sterilization law passed in Canada, it was its 1937 amendment and the permitting of involuntary sterilizations that made the Alberta eugenics movement truly distinct. During the late 1930s, a time when the great majority of regional governments were either decommissioning or disregarding their sterilization laws due to a lack of funding, the discrediting of scientific racism and an increase in public protest, Alberta expanded its own legislation. Although similar laws were met with fierce opposition in other provinces and in the United States, this new amendment of 1937 remained largely unopposed in Alberta.
As a result of such narrowly focused research, the explanations for why the Act was amended and why resistance to non-consensual sterilization remained minimal during the 1930s have been based almost entirely on political and social assumptions and not on sound evidence; explanations have proven to be exaggerated, inaccurate, and misleading. By dismissing the preconceived notions and arguments of the past we are left with a new grounding from which to build future propositions and with a new set of sharpened questions to help determine why the Alberta government, and presumably its people, were willing to support such regressive legislation when it was being ignored and rejected elsewhere. By doing so new theories arise, such as the influential role of individual personalities within the provincial government and the Alberta medical community, the definition and diagnosis of “mental deficiency” in Canada, and the means by which political resistance could be expressed.
Foucault and Althusser: Epistemological Differences with Political Effects
Authors: Ryder Andrew 
Published: November 2016

Michel Foucault was at times critical of the Marxist tradition, and at other times more sympathetic. After his dismissal of Marx in The Order of Things, he conceded the existence of a more compelling, non-humanist version of this discourse. Louis Althusser’s innovations are crucial for the existence of this second Marxism. While consideration of the relation between Foucault and Althusser varies between those who emphasize relations between State and capital, and conversely those who inscribe Marxist considerations into a micro-political account, the distinction between the two thinkers takes place earlier in the development of their respective outlooks. Foucault initially emphasized Marxism as an anthropological eschatology; he revises this argument, commending the possibility of an epistemological mutation of history inherent in Marx’s thought. I locate crucial distinctions between Foucault and Althusser in the early work of the 1960s as inflecting relations in the seemingly more proximate work of the 1970s. In this approach, we can better examine Foucault’s non-Marxist contentions in order to consider the reciprocal distinctions and contributions between these two forms of anti-humanism, providing the necessary groundwork for debates regarding the nature of subjectivity, the State, and revolution.
