MODIS Summer SUHI Cross-sections Anomalies over the Megacities of the Monsoon Asia Region and Global Trends
Authors: Itzhak-Ben-Shalom Hofit , Alpert Pinhas , Potchter Oded , Samuels Rana 
Published: November 2017

Background:Evidence has accumulated in recent years regarding the scope of local and global climate changes attributed to exacerbating anthropogenic factors such as accelerating population growth, urbanization, industrialization, traffic and energy use. Remote space monitoring, unlike ground-based measurements, has the advantage of providing global coverage on a daily basis.Methods:MODIS (Moderate Resolution Imaging Spectroradiometer) Aqua and Terra 1°×1° spatial resolution as well as the 1 km higher resolution of Aqua-MODIS were investigated for a global overview of megacities temperature variations, as well as the recent trends of the 10 largest Monsoon Asian megacities.Results:The average Land Surface Temperature (LST) cross-sections of the 10 Asian megacities were examined for June-August 2002-2014. Temperature variations fit a spatial bell-shaped curve, with a pronounced maximum over the city center. Nighttime data indicated sharp LST decreases with distance from the city center, particularly in the coldest cities, those of Tokyo, Seoul, Osaka and Beijing.Conclusion:Daytime latitudinal (E-W) and longitudinal (N-S) Surface Urban Heat Islands (SUHI) have steeper gradients than for nighttime data. During daytime, the SUHI gradients are largest in Tokyo, Seoul, Osaka and Beijing with values reaching 15oC followed by the cities of Shanghai and Guangzhou with ~11oC, and Karachi with ~5oC SUHI. Nighttime SUHIs were more moderate, 4-6oC in Tokyo, Seoul ~5oC, Osaka 5-7oC and Beijing ~7oC. Only in the three largest megacities,i.e., Tokyo, Guangzhou and Shanghai, did the nighttime LST trends decline.
Redefining Knee Balance in a Medially Stabilized Prosthesis: An In-Vitro Study
Authors: Van Overschelde Philippe , Pinskerova Vera , Koch Peter P. , Fornasieri Christophe , Fucentese Sandro 
Published: November 2017

Background:
To date, there is still no consensus on what soft tissues must be preserved and what structures can be safely released during total knee arthroplasty (TKA) with a medially stabilized implant.

Objective:
The aim of this study was to analyze the effect of a progressive selective release of the medial and lateral soft tissues in a knee implanted with a medially stabilized prosthesis.

Method:
Six cadaveric fresh-frozen full leg specimens were tested. In each case, kinematic pattern and mediolateral laxity were measured in three stages: firstly, prior to implantation; secondly, after the implantation of the trial components, but before any soft tissue release; and thirdly, progressively as soft tissue was released with the trial implant in place. The incremental impact of each selective release on knee balance was then analyzed.

Results:
In all cases sagittal stability was not affected by the progressive release of the lateral soft tissue envelope. It was possible to perform progressive lateral release provided the anterior one-third of the iliotibial band (ITB) remained intact. Progressive medial release could be performed on the medial side provided the anterior fibers of the superficial medial collateral ligament (sMCL) remained intact.

Conclusion:
The medially conforming implant remains stable provided the anterior fibers of sMCL and the anterior fibers of the ITB remain intact. The implant’s sagittal stability is mainly dependent on its medial ball-in-socket design.

Published: November 2017

Introduction:Although the local adverse effects of ophthalmic drugs, including allergic reactions, are well recognized, less is known about the systemic side- effects of eye drops, especially during pregnancy, breast-feeding and early childhood. Ophthalmologists should also be aware of unusual, in some cases even life-threatening, effects of commonly used eye drops.Conclusion:This brief review outlines the routes of systemic absorption and the kinetics of active components present in eye drops, and identifies the clinically relevant systemic adverse effects.

El propósito de esta nota es presentar el concepto de Educación en Ciencia, Tecnología y Sociedad, tal como ha tomado forma en los Estados Unidos durante los últimos años y comentar este concepto desde la perspectiva de los países latinoamericanos, tomando el caso de Colombia como punto de referencia, y aventurando algunas generalizaciones. Por tanto este texto pretende mostrar una educación que integre ciencia, tecnología y sociedad va más allá de evaluar el impacto social del desarrollo tecnológico y de promover mecanismos de acción social encaminados a aminorar sus efectos negativos.
Stickiness in Costs and Voluntary Disclosures: Evidence from Management Earnings Forecasts
Authors: Ciftci Mustafa , Salama Feras M. 
Published: November 2017

ABSTRACT
We investigate the relationship between cost stickiness and management earnings forecasts. Prior research suggests that earnings are more volatile for sticky cost firms resulting in greater earnings forecast errors. The greater forecast errors might increase investors' demand for information and induce managers to issue earnings forecasts. Alternatively, managers might refrain from issuing earnings forecasts for sticky cost firms because greater forecast errors might damage managers' credibility and adversely affect their job security. We find that cost stickiness is positively associated with management earnings forecast issuance, suggesting that the benefits outweigh the costs. Prior research also suggests that cost stickiness has negative implications for earnings. We find a positive association between cost stickiness and management earnings forecast errors, suggesting that managers do not fully incorporate the negative implications of cost stickiness into their forecasts. Finally, we find that analysts' forecast errors for sticky cost firms are greater than managers'.

STUDY ON CARBON CONTENT AND ECOLOGICAL MANGROVE INDEX IN MUARAREJA, TEGAL, CENTRAL JAVA
Authors: Suyono Suyono 
Published: November 2017

The accumulation of carbon in the atmosphere causing the greenhouse effect as a result of trapping of short-wave sunlight, which increase the temperature of Earth's atmosphere. One of the forest ecosystems that can reduce the effects of greenhouse gases and to mitigate the climate change is a mangrove forest. The role of mangroves related to the Blue Carbon was emphasized as mangrove efforts to utilize CO₂ for photosynthesis and store it in biomass stock and sediment as a climate change mitigation efforts. The purpose of the research are a) to determine the density, dominance and the importance value of mangroves index, b) to know the Diversity Index and Uniformity Index of mangrove that dominates, c) to determine the content of carbon in the mangrove forests, and d) to determine the relationship of the density of mangrove with a carbon content in the mangrove forest area in the village of Muarareja Tegal. Mangrove areas in the Village of Muarareja was dominated by <em>Rhizophora mucronata</em> with Relative Density (KR) in ponds: 42.11% - 100%, residential homes: 28.57% - 45.45%, the river: 31.58% - 61.90%, the beach : 59.09% - 73.68%. Relative dominance (DR) of ponds station: 34.71% - 100%, residential home stations: 14.24% - 39.61%, river station: 20.46% - 72.95%, coast stations: 64.08% - 92,25%. Importance Value Index (IVI) in ponds station: 76.82% - 200%, residential home stations: 42.81% - 85.07%, the river station: 52.03% - 134.85%, coast stations: 123.17% - 165.93%. Diversity Index (H) mangrove <em>Rhizophora mucronata</em> ranged by 0.000 - 0.692 and Uniformity Index (J) mangrove ranged by 0.000 - 2.107. The largest carbon content (tons / ha) was produced at the coast with the average number of total carbon content of the plot (tons / ha) was 189,942.77 tons / ha, followed by the river with the average number of total carbon content of the plot (tons / ha) was 179,011.49 tons / ha, the average number of total carbon content ot the plot for the ponds (tons / ha) was 176,519.79 tons / ha and with the average number of total carbon content of the plot (tons / ha) for the residential homes was 165,774.82 tons / ha. The density of mangrove has a very close correlation with the total carbon content in liters per hectare of the plot, the total carbon content in plants per hectare of the plot below, the total carbon content in leaves per hectare of the plot, and the total carbon content of soil per hectare of the plot. The total carbon content of the tree biomass per hectare on the plot, the total carbon content of nekromassa per hectare of the plot, and the total carbon content in the roots per hectare of the plots does not have a positive correlation with the density of mangrove.

El lugar y la fórmula: "Cubo de Képler", de Bernardo Schiavetta, un laberinto poético contemporáneo
Authors: Mesa Gancedo Daniel 
Published: November 2017

El presente estudio se ofrece como trabajo de interpretación sobre un texto singular: el “Cubo de Képler” (y su corolario, “Estrella en el cubo”), poema-laberinto, incluido en Fórmulas para Cratilo (Madrid, Visor, 1990), del poeta experimental Bernardo Schiavetta (Córdoba, Argentina, 1948). Tras una breve introducción en la que se traza la huella de este tipo de poesía icónica (o diagramática), de la Antigüedad a los ejercicios del OULIPO, se realiza una “operación” exhaustiva en el cuerpo del texto, procurando atender a sus incitaciones y generando lecturas múltiples que tal vez se acerquen a su sentido. La conclusión subraya la perdurable condición revolucionaria de todo texto difícil, de la que no abdica tampoco la práctica literaria más actual. Cette étude s'offre en tant que travail d'interprétation réalisé sur un texte singulier: “Cubo de Kepler” (et son corollaire “Estrella en el cubo”), poème-labyrinthe, inclus dans Fórmulas para Cratilo (Madrid, Visor, 1990), du poète expérimental Bernardo Schiavetta (Argentine, 1948). Après une brève introduction, dans laquelle on dessine la trace de cette sorte de poésie iconique (voire “diagrammatique”), depuis l'Antiquité jusqu'aux exercices de l'OULIPO, on met en oeuvre une “opération” exhaustive dans le corps du texte, avec beaucoup d'attention à ses propres incitations, qui fait jaillir des lectures multiples se rapprochant, peut-être, de son sens. La conclusion souligne la condition revolutionaire perdurable de tout texte difficil, qui n'est pas étrange non plus à la prattique littéraire actuelle.
El deseo de "las otras" artes en la poesía de Antonio Carvajal: la colaboración entre los artistas
Authors: Sánchez-Mesa Martínez Domingo 
Published: November 2017

El caso de Antonio Carvajal (Albolote, Granada 1945) es particularmente significativo de las relaciones intermediales en la poesía del último tercio del siglo XX, por cuanto existe una voluntad y búsqueda consciente desde muy temprano de ese diálogo con la pintura y con la música basada, sobre todo, en el convencimiento del carácter intermedial del hecho poético. Más allá de la filiación clásica y barroca de su poesía, la inclinación y recurso frecuente a la correspondencia entre las artes presenta una clara raigambre simbolista, en diálogo sobre todo con Paul Valéry con quien Carvajal comparte, además de la vocación técnica y la ideología de la música como punto de fuga de la poesía pura, la confianza en el hecho poético como común denominador de lo artístico. Desde la antología de textos de marcada vocación interartística, Raso, Milena y Perla (1996), a algunas de una de sus colaboraciones en exposiciones pictóricas o libros de artista, como la edición ilustrada con serigrafías de Antonio Jiménez de El deseo es un agua (1998), se trata de dilucidar las distintas técnicas y sentidos del diálogo intermedial practicados por Antonio Carvajal. The work of Antonio Carvajal (Albolote, Granada 1945) is highly representative of intermediality within the end of the XXth century poetry. There is an early conscious and voluntary quest in Carvajal`s poetry towards a dialogue with painting and music, mainly based in some certainty about the intermedial dynamics of the same poetic event. Beyond its classical and baroque roots, the poetics of Carvajal inherits the Baudelairian correspondence between the arts, thus a symbolist stance. Through a fruitful reading of Paul Valéry, with whom Carvajal shares a well appreciated vocation towards the ideology of music and the mastery of technical aspects in poetry writing, this writing aims to a renewed practice of pure poetry on the basis of poetry itself as common denominator of the arts. Since his most clearly interartistic book (anthology) Raso, Milena y Perla (1996), to some of his many and varied ways of collaboration and interchange with painters, as it is the case of the livre d’artiste El deseo es un agua (1998), with serigraphies by Antonio Jiménez, this article drives to classify and elucidate these various strategies and meanings of the intermedial dialogue practiced by Antonio Carvajal
El eje local-mundial como reto para la Historia literaria
Authors: Casas Arturo 
Published: November 2017

En el marco general de la crisis de la Historia y con atención a las nuevas coordenadas derivadas de la mundialización y el multiculturalismo, este artículo analiza las dimensiones local, regional, nacional y supranacional/mundial de la Historia literaria y explora la posibilidad de que su vertiente temporal-cronológica ceda parte de su protagonismo a un vector espacial-territorial, propiciando con ello una aproximación a la Semiótica de la cultura, a la Geografía cultural y a otras disciplinas. Se observan además las correlaciones establecidas entre las dimensiones citadas en la práctica de varios modelos actualmente vigentes en la Historia comparada de las culturas y las literaturas –los correspondientes a Dionýz Ďurišin y a Mario J. Valdés y los vinculados con las teorías empírico-sistémicas y los Subaltern Studies–, con atención particular a los niveles heurístico, metodológico, discursivo y metatextual, así como al tipo de recepción previsto en cada caso. Within the general framework of the crisis of History and with attention to the new coordinates derived from globalization and multiculturalism, this article analyzes the local, regional, national and supranational/worldwide dimensions of Literary History and explores the possibility of its temporal-chronological aspect granting part of its protagonism to a spatial-territorial vector, thereby favoring an approach to Cultural Semiotics, Cultural Geography, and other disciplines. The correlations established between these aforementioned dimensions in the practice of several of the most current models in Comparative Cultural and Literary History are also observed –those corresponding to Dionýz Ďurišin and Mario J. Valdés and the connections to empirical-systemic theories and Subaltern Studies–, with particular attention to heuristic, methodological, discursive, and metatextual levels, as well as the type of reception foreseen in each case.
Resistência da poesia / resistência na poesia
Authors: Martelo Rosa Maria 
Published: November 2017

Nos últimos cinquenta anos, a poesia portuguesa desenvolveu diferentes formas de resistência, reagindo não apenas a circunstâncias políticas, sociais e culturais muito diversificadas, mas também a um processo gradual de desvalorização do seu lugar e do seu papel no mundo contemporâneo. Este estudo pretende determinar e descrever diferentes modelos de resistência na (e da) poesia, tendo por referência algumas das poéticas que mais marcaram o panorama da poesia portuguesa, dos anos 60 até aos nossos dias. Obras de autores tão diferentes entre si como o são as de Carlos de Oliveira, Luiza Neto Jorge, Herberto Helder, António Franco Alexandre, João Miguel Fernandes Jorge, Adília Lopes, Ana Luísa Amaral, Manuel de Freitas ou José Miguel Silva têm em comum a atribuição à poesia de uma função de resistência. O que une estes autores? E o que os separa? A resposta a estas questões deverá permitir apurar uma noção de resistência na poesia e também a sua articulação com a noção de resistência da poesia. Palavras-chave: poesia, resistência, modernidade, contemporaneidade In the last fifty years Portuguese poetry developed diferent forms of resistance, reacting not only to political, social and cultural circumstances, but also to a gradual process of devaluation of its place and role in contemporary world. This study aims at determining and describing different models of resistance in (and of) poetry, by considering some of the poetics that marked Portuguese poetry from the 1960's to our days. Authors so different among each other like Carlos de Oliveira, Luiza Neto Jorge, Herberto Helder, António Franco Alexandre, João Miguel Fernandes Jorge, Adília Lopes, Ana Luísa Amaral, Manuel de Freitas or José Miguel Silva bear in common the fact that they invest poetry with a function of resistance. What brings these authors together? What separates them? The answer to these questions should permit coming across a notion of resistance in poetry and also its articulation with the notion of resistance of poetry. Key-words: poetry, resistance, modernity, contemporaneity
Tipologías y métodos de la intervención poética. Un breve acercamiento desde la estética
Authors: Claramonte Arrufat Jordi 
Published: November 2017

Este artículo propone una división tripartita de las prácticas poéticas en el espacio público: poéticas de denuncia, colaborativas y relacionales. Señalaremos a su vez algunas de las fortalezas y algunas de las flaquezas específicas de las que se pretenden prácticas efectivas en un nivel poético o en un nivel político. Con el fin de pensar mejor esta doble efectividad, el artículo se cierra con la introducción de elementos conceptuales y teóricos que pueden resultar útiles. Palabras clave: Estética modal, repertorios, disposiciones, paisajes. This article argues that poetic practices that take place in public space fall into three categories: poetics of denunciation, collaborative poetics, and relational poetics. We will highlight some of the strengths and weaknesses of those which aim to be effective practices on a poetic or political level. With a view to rethinking this double effectiveness, we will close this article with a series of conceptual and theoretical elements that could be of use. Keywords: Modal Aesthetics, repertoires, dispositions, landscapes
