Creative Openings in the Social Interactions of Teaching
Authors: Beghetto Ronald A. 
Published: February 2017

Abstract
What role does creativity play in the social interactions of teaching? The purpose of this brief communication is to address this question by introducing the concept of creative openings. Creative openings refer to unexpected breaks in otherwise planned teaching interactions that result in new and meaningful insights, perspectives and understandings. The concept of creative openings builds on recent work that has endeavored to explore how creative thought and action can emerge in the socio-psychological and material interactions of practice. The article opens by briefly introducing creative openings, highlights three key moment (interactional ruptures, interactional responses and interactional outcomes) that researchers can use to examine the trajectory of creative openings. The article closes with a brief example that illustrates these key moments and how they might be represented diagrammatically. Directions for future research are also discussed.
The Creative Self-Concept as a Mediator Between Openness to Experience and Creative Behaviour
Authors: Chen Bin-Bin 
Published: February 2017

Abstract
This study examined the mediation effect of creative self-concept on the relationship between Openness to Experience and creative behaviours among university students. Participants in the study completed self-report measures of Openness to Experience, creative behaviours and creative self-concept. Structural equation modelling revealed that, as predicted, Openness to Experience was indirectly related to creative behaviours through creative self-concept. Implications for future research and limitations of the present findings are discussed.
Contradiction and Kant’s Formula of Universal Law
Authors: Kleingeld Pauline 
Published: February 2017

AbstractKant’s most prominent formulation of the Categorical Imperative, known as the Formula of Universal Law (FUL), is generally thought to demand that one act only on maxims that one can will as universal laws without this generating a contradiction. Kant’s view is standardly summarized as requiring the ‘universalizability’ of one’s maxims and described in terms of the distinction between ‘contradictions in conception’ and ‘contradictions in the will’. Focusing on the underappreciated significance of the simultaneity condition included in the FUL, I argue, by contrast, that the principle is better read as requiring that one be able to will
Sympathizing with C. P. E. Bachs Empfindungen
Authors: Ceballos Sara Gross 
Published: February 2017

Carl Philipp Emanuel Bach’s late Free Fantasia in F-sharp Minor exists in two versions—one for solo keyboard (Wq. 67/H. 300), the other for keyboard and violin accompaniment (Wq. 80/H. 536)—and bears the subtitle C. P. E. Bachs Empfindungen. For some modern listeners and scholars, the chamber version of the fantasia transforms the private outpourings characteristic of the genre into a public display that condescends to the sociability of the popular accompanied sonata and forces an interloper accompanist onto the solo fantasist. Adding insult to injury, the arrangement ends with a seemingly inexplicable A-major Allegro.
Yet the arrangement ought not to be dismissed. In both score and performance, it demands a sensitive and sympathetic relationship between violin and keyboard that points to a new connection between Bach and Empfindsamkeit, a literary movement that emphasized sympathy (Mitleid) as much as if not more than emotional disclosure. I offer a new interpretation of the accompanied fantasia by situating Bach’s arrangement and its performance in the context of contemporary philosophies of sympathy and practices of sympathetic readership. I compare the relationships of the composer, keyboardist, and violinist to those of author, character, and reader to illustrate that the violinist is an integral figure in the disclosure of C. P. E. Bachs Empfindungen. The violinist appears to be Bach’s sympathetic reader.

Core Ideas
These selected varieties were compared with the best commercial check varieties on‐farm across 94 locations in eastern and southern Africa in a randomized complete block design with three replications for two seasons.
The new drought tolerant hybrids showed a yield advantage over the commercial check varieties both in the early and medium‐late maturing categories by 4 to 19%.
Among the CIMMYT hybrids, CZH0616 showed wide adaptation under stress and non‐stress conditions, making it an ideal genotype for smallholders’ farmers.
Under farmers’ fields CZH0616, CZH0837, CZH0935, and CZH0928 were high yielding and stable across locations in eight countries that represent major maize production environments in eastern and southern Africa.
Maize (Zea mays L.) is the most important staple food in eastern and southern Africa (ESA) with human maize consumption averaging 91 kg capita−1 yr−1. Current maize yield averages 1.2 t ha−1 and is barely sufficient for the region’s requirements due to drought and low N stresses. The objective of this study was to compare new drought tolerant (DT) maize hybrids and open pollinated varieties (OPVs) against the best commercial varieties in ESA under farmer management conditions and to validate on‐station results. Maize varieties were simultaneously selected on‐station in four types of environments across 44 locations in ESA during the 2008/2009 and 2009/2010 seasons. During the 2010/2011 and 2011/2012 seasons, 20 promising DT maize hybrids and OPVs were selected from the on‐station based on their mean grain yield and stability. These selected varieties were compared with the best commercial check varieties on‐farm across 80 locations in ESA in a randomized complete block design for two seasons. The genotype + genotype × environment comparison biplot showed variety CZH0616 together with other new DT hybrids to be stable and high yielding across 44 locations on‐station in the ESA region compared to the commonly grown checks such as SC513. The new DT hybrids showed a yield advantage over the commercial check varieties both in the early and medium‐late maturing categories by 4 to 19%, and the gains were bigger under stress conditions. Under farmers’ fields CZH0616, CZH0837, CZH0935, and CZH0928 were high yielding and stable across locations.

Published: February 2017

Watershed‐scale management efforts to reduce nutrient loads and improve the conservation of lakes in agricultural watersheds require effective integration of a variety of agricultural conservation best management practices (BMPs). This paper documents watershed‐scale assessments of the influence of multiple integrated BMPs on oxbow lake nutrient concentrations in a 625‐ha watershed of intensive row‐crop agricultural activity during a 14‐yr monitoring period (1996–2009). A suite of BMPs within fields and at field edges throughout the watershed and enrollment of 87 ha into the Conservation Reserve Program (CRP) were implemented from 1995 to 2006. Total phosphorus (TP), soluble reactive phosphorus (SRP), ammonium, and nitrate were measured approximately biweekly from 1996 to 2009, and total nitrogen (TN) was measured from 2001 to 2009. Decreases in several lake nutrient concentrations occurred after BMP implementation. Reductions in TP lake concentrations were associated with vegetative buffers and rainfall. No consistent patterns of changes in TN or SRP lake concentrations were observed. Reductions in ammonium lake concentrations were associated with conservation tillage and CRP. Reductions in nitrate lake concentrations were associated with vegetative buffers. Watershed simulations conducted with the AnnAGNPS (Annualized Agricultural Non‐Point Source) model with and without BMPs also show a clear reduction in TN and TP loads to the lake after the implementation of BMPs. These results provide direct evidence of how watershed‐wide BMPs assist in reducing nutrient loading in aquatic ecosystems and promote a more viable and sustainable lake ecosystem.Core Ideas

Synchrotron‐based X‐Ray Approaches for Examining Toxic Trace Metal(loid)s in Soil–Plant Systems
Authors: Kopittke Peter M , Wang Peng , Lombi Enzo , Donner Erica 
Published: February 2017

Elevated levels of trace metal(loid)s reduce plant growth, both in soils contaminated by industrial activities and in acid agricultural soils. Although the adverse effects of trace metal(loid)s have long been recognized, there remains much unknown both about their behavior in soils, their toxicity to plants, and the mechanisms that plants use to tolerate elevated concentrations. Synchrotron‐based approaches are being utilized increasingly in soil–plant systems to examine toxic metal(loid)s. In the present review, brief consideration is given to the theory of synchrotron radiation. Thereafter, we review the use of synchrotron‐based approaches for the examination of various trace metal(loid)s in soil–plant systems, including aluminum, chromium, manganese, cobalt, nickel, copper, zinc, arsenic, selenium, and cadmium. Within the context of this review, X‐ray absorption spectroscopy (XAS) and X‐ray fluorescence microscopy (μ‐XRF) are of particular interest. These techniques can provide in situ analyses of the distribution and speciation of metal(loid)s in soil–plant systems. The information presented here serves not only to understand the behavior of trace metals in soil–plant systems, but also to provide examples of the potential applications of synchrotron radiation that can be used to advantage in other studies.Core Ideas

Authors: Appelbaum Deniz , Kogan Alexander , Vasarhelyi Miklos A. 
Published: February 2017

SUMMARY
Modern audit engagements often involve examination of clients that are using Big Data and analytics to remain competitive and relevant in today's business environment. Client systems now are integrated with the cloud, the Internet of Things, and external data sources such as social media. Furthermore, many engagement clients are now integrating this Big Data with new and complex business analytical approaches to generate intelligence for decision making. This scenario provides almost limitless opportunities and the urgency for the external auditor to utilize advanced analytics. This paper first positions the need for the external audit profession to move toward Big Data and audit analytics. It then reviews the regulations regarding audit evidence and analytical procedures, in contrast to the emerging environment of Big Data and advanced analytics. In a Big Data environment, the audit profession has the potential to undertake more advanced predictive and prescriptive-oriented analytics. The next section proposes and discusses six key research questions and ideas, followed with emphasis on the research needs of quantification of measurement and reporting. This paper provides a synthesis and review of the concerns facing the audit community with the growing use of Big Data and complex analytics by their clients. It contributes to the literature by expanding upon these emerging concerns and providing opportunities for future research.
DIFFERENTIATED ANALYSIS OF OFFENSIVE ACTIONS BY FOOTBALL PLAYERS IN SELECTED MATCHES FROM THE EURO 2008
Authors: Buraczewski Tomasz , Cicirko Leszek , Gawlik Damian 
Published: February 2017

Abstract
Introduction. Football training should be organized in view of the requirements of contemporary sports and should be analyzed based on data obtained by observing the best teams in action. The goal of this study was to compare the frequency and effectiveness of selected tactical and technical actions performed by footballers from winning and losing teams in selected matches from the Euro 2008. Material and methods. The study involved close observation of performances by 166 players from 11 countries in 8 matches (Turkey-Czech Republic 3:2; Turkey-Switzerland 2:1; Italy- France 2:0; Holland-France 4:1; Sweden-Greece 2:0; Spain-Sweden 2:1; Germany-Portugal 3:2; Spain-Germany 1:0). The total amount of game observation time equaled 720 minutes. Analysis was conducted by repeatedly viewing DVDs of matches and coding the results on a detailed observational spreadsheet containing a detailed breakdown of offensive actions such as attempting goals, passing the ball or 1v1 attacking. Results and conclusions. Analysis showed that winning teams were more effective in seven out of eight indexes, i.e.: overall effectiveness in offense, effectiveness in attempting goals, overall effectiveness in passing, effectiveness in passing in easy situations, and effectiveness in 1v1 attacking. Losing teams were more effective solely in the index for passing in difficult situations.
Assessment of healthy students' locomotion in a wheelchair

Abstract
Introduction.Efficient locomotion in a wheelchair is of great importance for the life quality of people with diseases that make them unable to walk, and also in many sport disciplines for the handicapped. The aim of this study was to compare the grip strength with the force of propulsion of a constrained wheelchair for different positioning of the hand on the wheel, and to observe the influence of grip strength and static propulsion force of the wheelchair on the results of a test ride on a given box-shaped path. Materials and methods. 84 healthy subjects took part in the test (52 female and 32 male), each being a Physiotherapy student of the Joseph Rusiecki Academy in Olsztyn. The grip strength measurement was conducted using a tensometric dynamometer in a sitting position. The propelling force was measured in static conditions with a dynamometer in three different hand positions on the push rim. The ability to move efficiently on a wheelchair was assessed on a “box” shaped track with measured completion times. Results. It was observed that women have lower grip strength of both hands than men and that their middle phalanx is shorter. In both groups a significant correlation was observed between grip strength and anthropometric parameters: body height, body weight, length of middle phalanx and between grip strength of the left and right hands. It has been found that grip strength is significantly correlated with the propulsion force of the wheelchair in almost all positions of the hand on the wheel. There was no significant correlation between the force generated with the left hand on the middle of the rim and the grip strength measured with a dynamometer. Men also achieved better results during the “box” test. A significant positive correlation was observed between body mass of both male and female subjects and the time of completing the “box” test. No correlation was found between the time of completing the “box” test and the propulsion force measured in constrains. Conclusions. Men achieve higher values of propulsion force than women in all cases of hand positioning on the wheel. Both men and women achieve highest values of propulsion force when positioning the hands in front of the rim. In all measured positions the average propulsion force was higher for men. In the case of healthy people who are not accustomed to using a wheelchair, the time of completing the “box” test depended mostly on their technical abilities and not their physical strength.
Fe xvii Opacity at Solar Interior Conditions
Authors: Iglesias Carlos A. , Hansen Stephanie B. 
Published: February 2017

Abstract
A recent study of Fe xvii R-matrix calculations aimed at resolving outstanding opacity problems claimed that substantial photon absorption from atomic core ionization processes was not previously considered. It is shown, however, that major opacity models already include cross-sections that are equivalent to the enhancements reported by the R-matrix method. Furthermore, the R-matrix calculations neglected important cross-sections that help to explain why the resultant opacity is lower than other models in the spectral range measured in transmission experiments relevant to the solar interior.

Abstract
Chemical abundances of eight O- and B-type stars are determined from high-resolution spectra obtained with the MIKE instrument on the Magellan 6.5 m Clay telescope. The sample is selected from 42 candidates for membership in the Leading Arm (LA) of the Magellanic System. Stellar parameters are measured by two independent grids of model atmospheres and analysis procedures, confirming the consistency of the stellar parameter results. Abundances of seven elements (He, C, N, O, Mg, Si, and S) are determined for the stars, as are their radial velocities and estimates of distances and ages. Among the seven B-type stars analyzed, the five that have radial velocities compatible with membership of the LA have an average [Mg/H] of −0.42 ± 0.16, significantly lower than the average of the remaining two, [Mg/H] = −0.07 ± 0.06, which are kinematical members of the Galactic disk. Among the five LA members, four have individual [Mg/H] abundance compatible with that in the LMC. Within errors, we cannot exclude the possibility that one of these stars has an [Mg/H] consistent with the more metal-poor, SMC-like material. The remaining fifth star has an [Mg/H] close to Milky Way values. Distances to the LA members indicate that they are at the edge of the Galactic disk, while ages are of the order of ∼50–70 Myr, lower than the dynamical age of the LA, suggesting a single star-forming episode in the LA. V
LSR of the LA members decreases with decreasing Magellanic longitude, confirming the results of previous LA gas studies.
