Published: January 2018

AbstractThe study of human mobility patterns is of both theoretical and practical values in many aspects. For long-distance travel, a few research endeavors have shown that the displacements of human travels follow a power-law distribution. However, controversies remain regarding the issue of the scaling laws of human mobility in intra-urban areas. In this work, we focus on the mobility pattern of taxi passengers by examining five datasets of three metropolitans. Through statistical analysis, we find that the lognormal distribution with a power-law tail can best approximate both the displacement and the duration time of taxi trips in all the examined cities. The universality of the scaling laws of human mobility is subsequently discussed, in view of the analysis of the data. The consistency of the statistical properties of the selected datasets that cover different cities and study periods suggests that, the identified pattern of taxi-based intra-urban travels seems to be ubiquitous over cities and time periods.
Inadvertent passage of a tracheostomy tube through Murphy's eye during percutaneous tracheostomy tube insertion
Authors: Measuria Harshul , Dada David , Bates Lucy 
Published: January 2018

SummaryPercutaneous tracheostomies are commonly performed at the bedside in Critical Care Units. The use of bronchoscopy during the procedure is variable. We describe a case of inadvertent cannulation of Murphy's eye with a tracheostomy which initially went unrecognised. Recommendations from the NCEPOD report “On the right Trach” related to the use of bronchoscopy during percutaneous tracheostomy insertion and awareness of the nuances of different endotracheal tubes may have prevented this complication.

Published: January 2018

Abstract
Liquid effluent produced from tanning industries is loaded with organic and inorganic contaminants, particularly heavy metals, which may cause severe damage to the ecosystem. Constructed wetland (CW) is a promising product of the research in the field of ecological engineering which helps to overcome aquatic pollution. This investigation aims to develop a plant–endophyte synergism in CW for the efficient remediation of tannery effluent. In a vertical flow CW, Brachiaria mutica was vegetated and augmented with three endophytic bacterial strains. Results showed a reduction of 82% in COD, 94% in BOD5, and 95% in Cr by plant–endophyte synergism in CWs and it was significantly higher than the use of plants alone. Similarly, nutrients (N and P), lipids, ion content, SO42−, and Cl− showed similar reduction by the combined action of endophytes and B. mutica in CWs. The endophytes inoculation enhanced bacterial population in different compartments of the plants vegetated in CWs and the maximum was observed in the roots. This study revealed that plant–endophyte synergism in CWs can enhance the remediation of industrial wastewater.
Citrus Juice: Green and Natural Catalyst for the Solvent-free Silica Supported Synthesis of β-Enaminones Using Grindstone Technique
Authors: Marvi Omid , Fekri Leila Zare 
Published: January 2018

Aim and Objective:
Citrus Juice as an efficient, cost-effective and green catalyst
employed for one-pot synthesis of various β-substituted enaminones through the reaction of β-
dicarbonyl compounds with different primary amines in a solvent-free conditions on silica gel as
solid surface using grindstone technique in high yields and short reaction times. The presented
procedure is operationally simple, practical and green.

Material and Methods:
The wide application of this procedure is demonstrated by the use of various
substituted amines to react with β-dicarbonyl compounds. The method was successfully applied for
primary amines (15 entries) and the related enaminones were well synthesized in good to excellent
yields. Melting points were measured on an Electro thermal 9100 apparatus. 1HNMR and 13C NMR
spectra were recorded on a FTNMR BRUKER DRX 500 Avence spectrometer. Chemical shifts were
given in ppm from TMS as internal references and CDCl3 was used as the solvent as well. The IR
spectra were recorded on a Perkin Elmer FT-IR GX instrument. The chemicals used in this work
were purchased from Merck and Fluka chemical companies.

Results:
Grinding synthesis of citrus juice catalyzed enamination of 1,3-dicarbonyls (acetylacetone,
methyl and ethyl- 3-oxobutanoate) with various primary amines ( aromatic and aliphatic) under
solvent-free silica supported conditions was examined and studied (15 entries) and the obtained
enaminones were well synthesized in good to excellent yields. Furthermore, the effect of various
catalysts on the yield and reaction time for grinding synthesis of 3-phenylamino- but- 2- enoic acid
ethyl ester (1) by this method has evaluated as well.

Conclusion:
a novel, efficient and green protocol for the grinding synthesis of enaminones using
citrus juice as natural catalyst has been presented. This methodology is user friendly, green and low
cost procedure under mild reaction condition with faster reaction rates. The citrus juice is
inexpensive and non-toxic which makes the process convenient, more economic and benign.
Furthermore, applying grindstone technique in solvent-free conditions, use of silica gel as a solid and
heterogeneous surface in reaction, high yields of products, cleaner reaction profiles, and availability
of the reagents makes this method a better choice for synthetic chemists.

Published: January 2018

Background:
Our previous studies revealed that the downregulation of Suppressor of cytokine
signaling 6 (SOCS6) was correlated with malignant progression of human prostate cancer (PCa).

Aims:

In the current study, we aimed to investigate the tumor suppressive roles of SOCS6 and the
underlying mechanisms in PCa.

Methods:
SOCS6 expression in PCa and non-cancerous prostate tissues was compared by immunohistochemistry.
Statistical associations of SOCS6 expression with various clinicopathological features and
patients prognosis were evaluated. In addition, we investigated SOCS6’s functions by overexpressing it
in vitro (cell apoptosis, migration and invasion assays) and in vivo (tumor formation, angiogenesis and
apoptosis). Moreover, SOCS6-regulated genes were identified by nextgeneration RNA-sequencing
analysis, followed by pathway enrichment analysis and in vitro experimental validation.

Results:
SOCS6 downregulation was significantly associated with advanced clinical stage (P=0.029)
and positive lymph node metastasis (P=0.013) in PCa patients. We also identified SOCS6 as an independent
prognostic factor for disease-free survival in PCa patients (P=0.045). Moreover, overexpression
of SOCS6 inhibited PCa cell invasion, migration, tumor xenografts growth and angiogenesis,
but induced PCa cell apoptosis (P values <0.05). Mechanically, we revealed that SOCS6 expression
may induce cell apoptosis coincident with down-regulation of Bcl2 and Hspa1a, and may suppress
tumor angiogenesis with downregulation of F7, Fak3 and Frzb.

Conclusion:
These findings suggest that the reduced expression of SOCS6 may be predictive of
unfavorable prognosis in PCa. Thus, SOCS6 may serve as a tumor suppressor and a novel therapeutic
target for this cancer.
The Human Rights (Parliamentary Scrutiny) Act 2011 (Cth) and the Courts
Authors: Meagher Dan 
Published: January 2018

AbstractThe Human Rights (Parliamentary Scrutiny) Act 2011 (Cth) (‘the Act’) has established a new model of pre-legislative rights scrutiny of proposed Commonwealth laws. This is undertaken by the political arms of government and involves: (1) the requirement that a statement of (human rights) compatibility must accompany proposed laws and certain legislative instruments when introduced into Parliament; and (2) the establishment of the Parliamentary Joint Committee on Human Rights (‘PJCHR’) which regularly reports to the Parliament on the compatibility of its proposed laws with human rights.This article looks at the relationship between the Act – and these two new mechanisms – and the interpretive role of the courts. It does so by first considering the (possible) direct use of statements of compatibility and PJCHR reports by Australian courts in the interpretation of Commonwealth laws that engage human rights. It then assesses whether the Act may exert an indirect influence on the content and scope of the common law interpretive presumptions that protect human rights.
State Jurisdictional Residue: What Remains to a State Court When Its Chapter III Functions are Exhausted?
Authors: Irving Helen 
Published: January 2018

AbstractMomcilovic v The Queen (2011) 245 CLR 1 provided the first opportunity for the High Court of Australia to consider the constitutional validity of a ‘declaration of inconsistent interpretation’ made under s 36 of the Charter of Human Rights and Responsibilities Act 2006 (Vic). The Court's ruling on this point attracted attention going well beyond the rest of the case. The constitutional status of the Charter's ‘declaration’ function had long been uncertain; in addition, although the case concerned a conviction under State law, the judgment of the Victorian Court of Appeal, from which Ms Momcilovic's appeal had come to the High Court, had been exercised in federal jurisdiction. This, then, raised questions about the extent to which the State Court was jurisdictionally limited, under the Kable doctrine, by its ‘identity’ as a Ch III court: whether the declaration power could be exercised by both, either, or neither, a State or federal court. Notably, French CJ found the power valid for a State court, but invalid for a federal court. In explaining his conclusion, the Chief Justice identified what this paper calls ‘State jurisdictional residue.’ In his Honour's words, ‘there is no reason in principle why the Court of Appeal, having exhausted its functions in the exercise of its federal jurisdiction … could not proceed to exercise the distinct non-judicial power conferred upon it by’ the Charter. Further questions were then raised about the extent to which a State court, albeit exercising federal jurisdiction, remains free to exercise a ‘residual’ State power relevant to the same proceedings. This paper considers such questions. It also asks what the case might be for reconsidering Kable v Director of Public Prosecutions (NSW) (1996) 189 CLR 51, particularly in light of the more recent judgment in Kirk v Industrial Court (NSW) (2010) 239 CLR 531.
Inconsistency between Commonwealth and Territory Laws
Authors: Twomey Anne 
Published: January 2018

AbstractThe rules concerning the inconsistency of Commonwealth and territory laws have been little explored and largely neglected. They rose to recent prominence in the challenge to the validity of the ACT's same-sex marriage laws. The ACT claimed that even if the Commonwealth's Marriage Act was intended to cover the field, the ACT's same-sex marriage law could still operate concurrently with it, because of the different application of inconsistency rules in the ACT. This article considers how inconsistency rules operate in the different territories, what was intended by the ACT inconsistency provision, how the High Court determined the issue, and whether a better explanation can be given for the outcome.
Complementary Protection in Australia two Years on: An Emerging Human Rights Jurisprudence
Authors: McAdam Jane , Chong Fiona 
Published: January 2018

AbstractSince 24 March 2012, asylum seekers whose claims are processed in Australia have been able to claim protection on broader grounds than those contained in the Refugee Convention. This is known as ‘complementary protection’. Complementary protection provides protection to those who face a real risk of arbitrary deprivation of life, the death penalty, torture, or cruel, inhuman or degrading treatment or punishment if removed from Australia. This article provides an in-depth analysis of complementary protection in its first two years of operation in Australia. It examines: (a) the kinds of factual scenarios giving rise to complementary protection; (b) case law developments in relation to the content of, and exceptions to, the complementary protection criteria; and (c) the extent to which Australia's approach reflects international practice.
Resolving the Application of the Christie Discretion in the Uniform Evidence Legislation
Authors: Hemming Andrew 
Published: January 2018

AbstractThe application of s 137 of the uniform evidence legislation, which essentially restates the Christie discretion, has been thrown into confusion with the Supreme Courts of New South Wales and Victoria taking a restrictive and expansive interpretation respectively of the meaning of ‘probative value’ for the purpose of the weighting exercise between probative value and unfair prejudice. Definitive clarification of such an important and well known evidential principle, which could reasonably have been previously regarded as settled law, will most likely be postponed until a suitable case is heard by the High Court. This article seeks to anticipate such a judicial resolution of the application of s 137, by applying well-understood principles of statutory interpretation, to argue in favour of the Victorian expansive approach to the meaning of ‘probative value’ in the uniform evidence legislation.
A assimetria entre verbos de concordância e verbos simples em Língua Brasileira de Sinais

O presente trabalho objetiva discutir a assimetria entre verbos simples (que não O presente trabalho objetiva discutir a assimetria entre verbos simples (que não apresentam concordância morfológica) e verbos de concordância em Língua Brasileira de Sinais (Libras). O fato de um verbo apresentar concordância ou não pode possibilitar, ou restringir, diferentes possibilidades de ordenamento dos sinais na sentença. Sentenças com verbos simples apresentam mais restrições no ordenamento de seus constituintes, enquanto verbos com concordância permitem de maneira mais livre ordens como SOV e OSV. Além disso, são identificadas diferenças em construção com topicalização de objeto e também na posição da partícula de negação não na oração. Assim, neste trabalho, apresento e discuto essas assimetrias, fornecendo uma explicação sintática para essas construções, a partir da perspectiva da Gramática Gerativa e partindo da proposta de derivação sintática da concordância em Libras, de Lourenço (2014).
(In) tolerância e preconceito linguístico no ciberespaço: Reflexões acerca dos comentários de usuários
Authors: Romano Valter Pereira , Pereira Brenda Chauane Edlene 
Published: January 2018

O presente artigo visa verificar como a intolerância e o preconceito linguístico se dão nos comentários de usuários do ciberespaço e observar a ocorrência do monitoramento da linguagem neste ambiente de interação social. Para tanto, realizou-se a seleção de três matérias que foram publicadas na Internet: “A língua que a gente fala”; “Caipira conserva formas antigas da Língua Portuguesa” e “Em bronca, Caetano Veloso dá aula sobre como usar a crase e faz sucesso na web”. Dessas três publicações, foram analisados treze comentários com foco para a discussão sobre o preconceito, a intolerância e a tolerância linguística. Como pressupostos teóricos, utilizam-se, primordialmente, os da Sociolinguística. Dentre os resultados observados, pôde-se observar que, apesar de haver um número significativo de pessoas que aceitam de modo positivo as variantes linguísticas, ainda há uma grande parcela dos usuários do ciberespaço que não as aceita como algo natural e legítimo das línguas. Além disso, observou-se que os usuários que produzem comentários preconceituosos e intolerantes também cometem equívocos em suas construções frasais sem se darem conta disso.
Análise linguística em substituição ao ensino de gramática? Incompreensões teórico-metodológicas e possibilidades de articulação dos eixos de ensino
Authors: Dutra Camilla Maria Martins , Régis Laura Dourado Loula 
Published: January 2018

As incompreensões teórico-metodológicas e as dificuldades de transposição didática da proposta da Análise Linguística, reveladas nas ações de linguagem dos professores de língua portuguesa, justificam a relevância deste trabalho, cujo objetivo reside em empreender uma reflexão mais aprofundada da Análise Linguística, bem como apresentar uma proposta de atividade de leitura e Análise Linguística. Teoricamente fundamentados Geraldi (1984,1997), Franchi (1977), Mendonça (2006), Perfeito (2005), apresentamos uma proposta de atividade de leitura e Análise Linguística, de nossa própria autoria. Os resultados apontam a possibilidade de integrar os eixos uso – leitura – e reflexão – análise linguística –, a partir de exemplares do gênero textual anúncio publicitário e da exploração dos recursos linguísticos, linguístico-discursivos, icônicos, de textualidade e da argumentação, em uma única atividade. Desse modo, acreditamos que este trabalho possa contribuir para uma reflexão sobre os possíveis entraves à operacionalização da prática de análise linguística e, consequentemente, para uma rediscussão da implementação efetiva da proposta em sala de aula.

Two criteria in Fermat infinite descent method
Authors: Grinberg Anatoly A. 
Published: January 2018

A method infinite descent is traditionally used to proof the Fermat’s theorem for the special case of exponent n=4. At each step, the method sequentially generates a new Fermat’s equation with one of the term being smaller than that in the preceding step. After a finite number of steps the term becomes less than one and this is taken as criterion of the insolvency of the original Fermat’s equation. We show that the power of factor 2, in even parameter of Pythagoras’ equation solution used in the proof, decreases by one at each step of the descent. As a result we arrive at an unsolvable equation. This is the second criterion for the descent method. Which of the two criteria is reached first depends on the parameters of the initial Pythagorean solutions chosen for the analysis.
Accelerating Seed Potato Production By Using Rapid Multiplication Systems in Ethiopia

Published: January 2018

Ethiopia is one of the major potato producing countries of the Sub-Saharan Africa region where potato is the fastest expanding food crop. The natural environment in Ethiopia is very suitable for year round production of potato using rain-fed and irrigated systems. However, the actual potato yield in the country ranges between 8-10 t/ha, which is slightly below the average for Africa. Shortage of good quality seed has been recognized as the single most important factor limiting potato production in the developing countries including Ethiopia. Therefore, the objective of this paper is to review the accelerating role of rapid seed potato multiplication technologies for potato seed production in Ethiopia. A low adoption of recommended seed potato technologies in the country could be due to a lack of alternative seed potato production methods compatible with farmers’ economic and agro-ecological conditions. Since 2010, Holetta Agricultural Research Centre in collaboration with International Potato Center together are applying different seed potato production hastening schemes to produce early generation seed. These seed multiplication schemes include, tissue culture, aeroponics, sand hydroponics and other rapid multiplication methods in screen house pots. These seed potato multiplication schemes brought a dynamic change for the last five years by accelerating the supply efficiency by 7.6% with enhancing the number from 43,773 mini-tubers to 332,485 mini-tubers. Moreover, these new seed multiplication schemes enhanced the capacity of clean seed production of the country by producing 216,717 mini-tubers of high quality seed from aeroponics and sand hydroponics. The farmers could also access early generation clean seed potato through their nearby cooperatives with affordable price and with lowtransportation cost. Thus, for developing countries like Ethiopia where formal seed system is at infant stages and early generation seed is mostly produced by research institutions, the use of various rapid multiplication techniques could be one option to produce clean seed potato.
