1918 Influenza Pandemic: In Utero Exposure in the United States and Long-Term Impact on Hospitalizations
Authors: Acquah Joseph Kofi , Dahal Roshani , Sloan Frank A. 
Published: July 2017

Objectives. To explore associations between in utero exposure to the 1918 influenza pandemic and hospitalization rates in old age (≥ 70 years) in the United States. Methods. We identified individuals exposed (mild and deadly waves) and unexposed in utero to the 1918 influenza pandemic (a natural experiment) by using birth dates from the Asset and Health Dynamics Among the Oldest Old survey. We analyzed differences in hospitalization rates by exposure status with multivariate linear regression. Results. In utero exposure to the deadly wave of the 1918 influenza pandemic increased the number of hospital visits by 10.0 per 100 persons. For those exposed in utero to the deadliest wave of the influenza pandemic, high rates of functional limitations are shown to drive the higher rates of hospitalizations in old age. Conclusions. In utero exposure to the influenza pandemic increased functional limitations and hospitalization rates in old age. Public Health Implications. To determine investments in influenza pandemic prevention programs that protect fetal health, policymakers should include long-term reductions in hospitalizations in their cost–benefit evaluations.
Maracatu Rural: Improvisation as a Social and Cultural Practice
Authors: Weghuber Stefan 
Published: July 2017

Maracatu Rural is a type of folk play with improvised verses performed in northeastern Brasil. Nowadays it has become one of the main attractions of pernambucanian carnival after decades of social struggle for wider national recognition within the context of Afro-Brazilian music. The poets are verbal representatives to outsiders. They have three culturally accepted options to choose from: to improvise freely, chant internalized lines, or combine these two elements. Both improvisation sites and the rhyme schemes affects the poets decision to either prepare or take performance risks (improvise).
The article discusses the close link between the art of improvisation of the poets as social agents and its situational context, depending on the cultural conditions, social position and individual development of each poet. It shows the interdependencies between a local folk play and supra-regional contexts such as the city, the state, the cultural industry or the media.
Historical Perspective of Soil Balancing Theory and Identifying Knowledge Gaps: A Review
Authors: Chaganti Vijayasatya N. , Culman Steve W. 
Published: July 2017

Core Ideas
A soil with an ideal basic cation saturation ratio (BCSR) is said to maximize crop yields.
Previous studies concluded higher crop yields are possible over a wide range of ratios.
Scientific community generally disregards BCSR theory.
Soil balancing effects on weeds, soils, and crop quality are critical knowledge gaps.
The common philosophies that contextualize soil test results and fertilizer recommendations are sufficiency level of available nutrients (SLAN), buildup and maintenance, and basic cation saturation ratio (BCSR). The BCSR approach postulates maintaining an ideal ratio of basic cation (Ca2+, Mg2+, and K+) saturations on the soil exchange sites to maximize crop yields. The practice of adding amendments to alter the ratios of basic cation saturations in soils is called “soil balancing.” Bear, Graham, and Albrecht promoted this concept, with each suggesting a desired saturation ratio of Ca:Mg:K for optimum crop yields. Several researchers have tried to validate this theory with both greenhouse and field experiments but could not conclude that an ideal cation saturation ratio existed and found that crop yields were similar across a wide range of ratios. While the scientific community disregards this theory, some farmers, crop consultants, and commercial soil‐testing laboratories still use BCSR to guide their fertilizer recommendations. It is believed that soil balancing effectively controls weeds, insects, and pests and improves overall soil health for better plant growth, ultimately producing better crop yields. Some even argue that soil balancing improves nutritional quality of the harvested crop. However, contemporary research to objectively demonstrate such perceived benefits of practicing soil balancing is missing. This review presents a holistic overview of soil balancing, presents a literature review on BCSR, and identifies knowledge gaps, which need to be addressed to better understand the merits and limitations of soil balancing.
Numerical simulation of filtration performance in submerged membrane bioreactors: effect of particle packed structure
Authors: Wang Zhidong , Su Kuizu , Shu Tong , Wang Weihong 
Published: July 2017

Abstract
It is widely known that the accumulation of solid matter forming a cake layer on the membrane surface is one of the major limitations of the filtration performance in submerged membrane bioreactors (SMBR). This study is focused on the influence of the cake porosity of different particle microscopic packed structures on the filtration performance of hollow fiber systems. An integrated model based on the finite element method to simulate numerically the flow in an SMBR is presented. The model coupled the Navier–Stokes and Darcy Brinkman equations to simulate a complete filtration run. The cake growth took into consideration not only the deposition with local filtration velocity but also the effect of aeration scouring. A novel solution of mesh deformation was adopted to investigate transient cake growth along the fiber. Comparisons between simulations and experiments are in good agreement. The results show that a higher porosity particle packed structure causes non-uniform filtration and cake thickness but also higher permeate flux. Meanwhile, the proportion of cake resistance to total resistance increases with the decrease of porosity.
Неупругое поведение при сжатии керамики с иерархической поровой структурой

Published: July 2017

Изучено поведение при сжатии керамики Аl2O3 с объeмом порового пространства от 35 до 60&#37; с иерархической поровой структурой трeх видов: крупной пористости размером 80-100 mum, мелкой пористости размером 14-15 mum и промежуточной межблочной пористости, включающей протяженные (110-120 mum) поровые микроканалы, образованные в результате зонального обособления при спекании. Показано, что полученная иерархическая поровая структура обусловливает формирование иерархической деформационной структуры в объеме керамики и приводит к понижению масштаба процессов разрушения от макроскопического в случае унимодальной керамики до микромасштабного разрушения, сравнимого с размерами сформировавшихся при спекании блоков.

Social Meanings of Public Architecture: A Victorian Elucidation
Authors: Armstrong James P. , Coleman Jeffrey M. , Goodsell Charles T. , Hollar Danielle S. , Hutchseon Keith A. 
Published: July 2017

A theoretical framework for social interpretation of public buildings is proposed. Seven types of social meaning attributable to such structures are identified, by which we mean forms of Ullderstanding apart from those associated with the standard architectural criteria of aesthetic quality and programmatic functionality. These types are named after John Ruskin's Seven Lamps of Architecture: Sacrifice, Truth, Power, Beauty, Life, Memory, and Obedience. Utilization of this analytic framework is illustrated by applying it to the State, War and Navy Building in Washington, D.C., now known as the Old Executive Office Building (OEOB).
Miserere
Authors: Nicolay John Alan 
Published: July 2017

Dr. Robert Bowler asks Dr. Ian Gestrode, Professor of History in a small, church affiliated liberal arts school to "sound out" the possibility of gay fraternity at St. Elgin's College. Gestrode advises his untenured colleague against this, but does make the inquiries, principally through his friend the Reverend Alan Saunders. A female student, infatuated with the Bowler, briefly draws Gestrode into her amorous intentions toward the English professor, but not before Gestrode questions his own feelings about her. A campus riot, national press, and a career self-immolates: the life of the professor, and the contradictions of freedom, the isolation of leadership, and the search for identity. The story recognizes the power of institutions, and how singular individuals play out scripts prepared for them well in advance.
Appointing the Best and the Brightest: Observations From the Riverworld Committee
Authors: Argyle Nolan J. 
Published: July 2017

This essay uses the fictitious setting of the Riverworld to bring together some of the great-and not-so-great--minds that have contributed to our development over the past two thousand years. It examines their thoughts as they relate to a current topic: recruiting top-level administrators who are both technically competent and responsive to the values of the system they serve. The essay does not reach any firm conclusions, but rather leaves the reader to find his or her own answers to the questions it raises.
Where’s Waldo: Revisiting the Administrative Novel
Authors: Connor George 
Published: July 2017

In 1968 Dwight Waldo published The Novelist on Organization and Administration: An Inquiry into the Relationships Between the Two Worlds. His very simple observation was that “one can learn much about administration from novels” (1968, 4). After thirty years, it may be a time to re-examine both the literary and academic side of Waldo’s novel approach. The article offers Kurt Vonnegut’s Player Piano and David Foster Wallace’s The Pale King, one classic and one contemporary work, as vehicles for revisiting Waldo’s pedagogy and reestablishing the linkage between administration and administrative novels.
The Academic Zoo: Student Profiles, Class Design and Teaching Style
Authors: Gibson Pamela A 
Published: July 2017

We call it a “zoo” when we see a gathering of disorderly, out-of-control people. Yet, any zookeeper will tell you their environments are calm and organized. Knowing the unique nature of their inhabitants and accommodating their species-specific needs makes for an educational environment for all. The Academic Zoo is no different. This paper introduces four profiles of the exotic creature, the freshman, and describes how they congregate in four types of First Year Seminars. The author proposes four teaching styles for these seminars, effective in attending to their distinct nature and keeping this zoo from becoming a circus.
Poor Reliability and Poor Adherence to Self-Monitoring of Blood Glucose Are Common in Women With Gestational Diabetes Mellitus and May Be Associated With Poor Pregnancy Outcomes

OBJECTIVE
To evaluate the compliance with self-monitoring of blood glucose (SMBG) and the reliability of diabetes logbooks in women with gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM), as well as the associated determinants and outcomes.

RESEARCH DESIGN AND METHODS
We prospectively selected French-speaking women with newly diagnosed GDM who had been referred to our diabetes management program and understood SMBG principles. At the next follow-up visit, we collected SMBG results from glucose meters and logbooks. We analyzed pregnancy outcomes.

RESULTS
Data were analyzed over 13 ± 3 days in 91 women. Only 61.5% had performed ≥80% of the required tests. Poor compliance was associated with a family history of diabetes, social deprivation, and non-European origin. The average time between pre- and postprandial tests was 141 ± 20 min, with 46.5% of women performing ≥80% of postprandial measurements 100–140 min after meals. Inadequate timing was associated with ethnicity and higher HbA1c at baseline. A total of 23.1% of women had &lt;90% matched values in diary and meter memory, and a poor concordance was associated with a family history of diabetes. Poor adherence was associated with more preeclampsia (12.2 vs. 1.9%, P = 0.049), and inadequate postprandial test timing with a higher HbA1c at delivery (5.3 ± 0.4 vs. 5.0 ± 0.3% [34 ± 2 vs. 31 ± 2 mmol/mol], P &lt; 0.01), despite more frequent insulin therapy.

CONCLUSIONS
Although women with GDM are considered to be highly motivated, SMBG adherence and reliability are of concern and may be associated with poor gestational prognosis, suggesting that caregivers should systematically check the glucose meter memory to improve GDM management.

“RIKYŪ HYAKUSHU” SEBAGAI CERMINAN DARI JIWA CHA NO YU
Authors: Suryawati Cicilia Tantri 
Published: July 2017

Dalam cha no yu terdapat istilah WaKeiSeiJaku yakni ajaran yang dicetuskan oleh Sen no Rikyū yang merupakan nilai-nilai kejiwaan yang terdapat dalam Cha no Yu. Ajaran-ajaran tersebut sebagian besar terdapat pada sajak-sajak dalam kumpulan sajak Rikyū Hyakushu. Dalam melakukan prosesi Cha no Yu, keempat ajaran tersebut harus diterapkan secara bersamaan. Akan tetapi tidak sedikit pembelajar asing yang kurang mengerti tentang apa dan bagaimana jiwa dan perasaan yang harus dibawa / dimiliki ketika melakukan prosesi Cha no Yu. Oleh Karena itu peneliti memutuskan untuk menganalisis sajak Rikyū Hyakushu untuk dicerminkan ke dalam jiwa cha no yu. Berikut rumusan masalah yang terdapat pada penelitian ini:1. Bagaimanakah cerminan　jiwa “和 (wa)” dalam Rikyū Hyakushu ?2. Bagaimanakah cerminan　jiwa “敬 (kei)” dalam Rikyū Hyakushu ?3. Bagaimanakah cerminan　jiwa “清 (sei)” dalam Rikyū Hyakushu ?4. Bagaimanakah cerminan　jiwa “寂 (jaku)” dalam Rikyū Hyakushu ? Untuk menganalisis data, peneliti menggunakan teori tentang puisi, strukturalisme, sejarah Cha no Yu (Sadō), Ocha no kokoro (Jiwa Cha no Yu), Biografi Sen no Rikyū, dan Rikyū Hyakushu. Penelitian ini termasuk dalam jenis penelitian kualitatif karena data-data yang digunakan merupakan sajak-sajak yang terdapat dalam Rikyū Hyakushu. Dalam penelitian kali ini, peneliti mendapatkan data dari buku yang berjudul “Rikyū Dōka ni Manabu (Ura Senke Gakuen Kōkai Kōza PEL Siri-zu)” karangan Abe Sosei, dengan penerbit Tankōsha, tahun 2000. Adapun hal yang ditemukan peneliti dalam penelitian ini adalah jiwa “wa” merupakan keselarasan dimana antara satu dan yang lainnya saling berkaitan, dan jiwa “wa” merupakan sesuatu yang fleksibel tetapi mengandung suatu keharmonisan. Sedangkan jiwa “kei” terwujud dengan menghargai atau menghormati niat dan tindakan sesama serta cara memperlakukan benda. “sei” tercermin dari cara membersihkan alat-alat, penggunaan alat-alat yang serba bersih pada saat jamuan minum teh, serta melakukan cha no yu dengan hati yang bersih, tidak dengan perasaan marah, ataupun dengki. Dan jiwa “jaku”, tidak hanya sekedar suasana yang tenang, namun juga perasaan batin yang tenang agar dapat membentuk suatu keanggunan ketika melakukan cha no yu.Kata kunci : Rikyū Hyakushu, Ocha no Kokoro
KAJIAN KETIMPANGAN FISKAL (FISCAL IMBALANCE) DAN KEBIJAKAN DESENTRALISASI FISKAL PADA DAERAH OTONOM
Authors: Suyanto Suyanto 
Published: July 2017

Tulisan ini mengkaji secara deskriptif ketimpangan fiskal (fiscal imbalance), baik sebelum maupun setelah otonomi daerah diterapkan. Ketimpangan fiskal (fiscal imbalance) pada tulisan ini, meliputi ketimpangan fiskal vertikal (vertical fiscal imbalance), maupun ketimpangan fiscal horisontal (horizontal fiscal imbalance) yang dikaji berdasarkan tingkatan pemerintahan, baik pada kabupaten / kota mapun provinsi.Konsep perhitungan besarnya koefisien ketimpangan fiskal dilakukan menggunakan berbagai formula dari para ahli, dimana koefisien ketimpangan fiskal vertikal (vertical fiscal imbalance) nilainya antara 0 sampai dengan 1. Semakin kecil nilai koefisien berarti daerah semakin tergantung pada pemerintah pusat. Sebaliknya semakin besar koefisien ketimpangan fiskal menunjukkan semakin mandiri daerah-daerah tersebut dalam membiayai pengeluarannya.Kata Kunci : Ketimpangan fiskal, Desentralisasi fiskal, daerah otonom.
