Published: December 2017

Ikan cakalang (Katsuwonus pelamis Linnaeus, 1758) merupakan salah satu sumberdaya ikan pelagis besar yang mempunyai nilai ekonomis penting. Informasi mengenai struktur ukuran dan beberapa parameter populasinya masih sangat terbatas khususnya di perairan Indonesia timur. Penelitian ini dilakukan di Morotai, Biak dan Jayapura dari Januari sampai Desember 2013. Tujuan penelitian ini adalah untuk menganalisis ukuran ikan yang tertangkap dan menganalisis parameter populasi meliputi laju pertumbuhan, mortalitas dan tingkat eksploitasi. Estimasi parameter pertumbuhan, mortalitas dan laju eksploitasi dihitung menggunakan program FiSAT (FAO-ICLARM Stock Assessement Tools). Ukuran ikan cakalang hasil tangkapan pancing tonda dan pancing ulur berkisar antara 15 – 94 cmFL (Fork Length), dengan modus antara 40-45 cmFL. Ukuran pertama kali tertangkap sebesar 40,1 cmFL dan kebanyakan adalah ukuran ikan yang sedang memijah. Hasil analisis menggunakan FiSAT II diperoleh laju pertumbuhan (K) sebesar 0,41/tahun, panjang asimptotik (L) 101,85 cmFL. Laju kematian alami (M) 0,6 / tahun, laju kematian karena penangkapan (F) 0,62 /tahun dan laju mortalitas total (Z) 1,22 /tahun. Tingkat eksploitasi ikan cakalang hampir fully exploited (E= 0,46). Disarankan tidak perlu ada penambahan upaya penangkapan atau status quo untuk menjaga agar sumberdaya ikan cakalang tetap terjaga kelestariannya. Skipjack tuna (Katsuwonus pelamis Linnaeus, 1758) is one of the large pelagic fish resources which have high economic value. Information on the size structure and population parameters is still limited especially in the waters of eastern Indonesia. The Research was conducted from January to December 2013 at Morotai, Biak and Jayapura. The aim of this study was to analyze the size of the fish caught and some of population parameters such as the growth rate, mortality rates, and exploitation rate. Estimated of growth parameters, mortality and exploitation rate using the program FiSAT (FAO-ICLARM Stock Assessement Tools). The size of skipjack tuna caught by troll line and handline in between 15-94 cmFL, with a mode of 40-45 cmFL. The Length at first capture was 40.1 cmFL, most of them had condition of spawning. By using program FiSAT II analysis resulted that growth rate (K) of skipjack tuna was 0.41/year, with length asimptotik (L) reaches 101.85 cmFL. The natural mortality rate (M) was 0.6 / year. The fishing mortality rate (F) was 0.62 / year and total mortality rate (Z) was 1.22 / year. The exploitation rate of skipjack tuna was nearly fully exploited (E = 0.46). It was recommended the exploitation rate of this fish should be no additional effort (status quo) to keep sustainability of the skipjack tuna resource.
Analiza przyczyn występowania różnic w podejściu do napływu imigrantów w państwach członkowskich Unii Europejskiej
Authors: Tendera-Właszczuk Helena 
Published: December 2017

The influx of illegal immigration to the European Union has grown rapidly over the past few years. Member States’ official stances and policies differ considerably as to whether to accept or reject refugees and illegal immigrants. Using a quantitative analysis, the article examines the causes of the different approaches to immigration to the EU Member States. It provides a general overview of the demographic forecasts until 2080 and suggests two new indicators to explain the acceptance (or rejection) of foreigners. It follows from the considerations that quantitative indicators are insufficient in determining whether to have a positive or negative position with regard to accepting immigrants to EU Member States.

Social Impact Bonds as a Funding Method for Health and Social Programs: Potential Areas of Concern
Authors: Katz Amy S. , Brisbois Benjamin , Zerger Suzanne , Hwang Stephen W. 
Published: December 2017

Social Impact Bonds (SIBs) represent a new way to finance social service and health promotion programs whereby different types of investors provide an upfront investment of capital. If a given program meets predetermined criteria for a successful outcome, the government pays back investors with interest. Introduced in the United Kingdom in 2010, SIBs have since been implemented in the United States and across Europe, with some uptake in other jurisdictions. We identify and explore selected areas of concern related to SIBs, drawing from literature examining market-based reforms to health and social services and the evolution of the SIB funding mechanism. These areas of concern include increased costs to governments, restricted program scope, fragmented policymaking, undermining of public-sector service provision, mischaracterization of the root causes of social problems, and entrenchment of systemically produced vulnerabilities. We argue that it is essential to consider the long-term, aggregate, and contextualized effects of SIBs in order to evaluate their potential to contribute to public health. We conclude that such evaluations must explore the assumptions underlying the “common sense” arguments often used in support of SIBs.

Objectives. To evaluate rates of member compliance with Iowa’s Medicaid expansion premium disincentive program. Methods. We used 2014 to 2015 Iowa Medicaid data to construct rolling 12-month cohorts of Wellness Plan and Marketplace Choice members (Iowa’s 2 Medicaid expansion waiver programs for individuals ≤ 100% and 101%–138% of the federal poverty level, respectively), calculated completion rates for required activities (i.e., wellness examinations and health risk assessments), and identified factors associated with program compliance. Results. Overall, 18.5% of Wellness Plan and 12.5% of Marketplace Choice members completed both activities (P < .001). From 2014 to 2015, completion rates for both activities decreased for Wellness Plan members but increased for Marketplace Choice members. Members who were younger, male, or non-White were less likely to complete required activities. Conclusions. Approximately 81% of Wellness Plan members and 87% of Marketplace Choice members failed to comply with program requirements and should have been subject to paying premiums the following year or face disenrollment. Disparities in completion rates may exacerbate disparities in insurance coverage and health outcomes. Public Health Implications. As states consider establishing Medicaid premium disincentive programs, they should anticipate challenges to successful implementation.
The Petroleum Engineer's Professional Responsibility
Authors: Hickman T. S. , Mistrot G. A. , Wines G. B. 
Published: December 2017

Introduction
Proposed changes in registration procedures by some states could threaten the professional status of petroleum engineers. Whether or not they are aware of it, all petroleum engineers are allowed to practice their profession at the discretion of the various states. As a discipline, petroleum engineering has little public image and exerts almost no influence on the regulatory bodies that control its destiny. The problem is not with the "system," but with petroleum engineers' not recognizing their professional responsibilities, including registration.
Most petroleum engineers are not registered. They work under industrial exemptions and take the registration procedure for granted. Even registered engineers tend to view it as a requirement to be met without relating their status as a professional to their responsibility to the public's health, safety, and welfare. . Our society has become increasingly consumer-oriented and environmentally conscious; the resulting changes are affecting engineering registration. Periodically, industrial exemptions come under question. Petroleum engineering is particularly vulnerable to these changes, since it lacks a well-defined professional image and large numbers of registrants.
The practice of engineering is not a natural or constitutional right; each state has the authority to determine who is qualified to practice as an engineer. If most petroleum engineers are content to earn a pay check and achieve passable competency in a limited area with little regard for the broader aspects of professionalism, we may lack sufficient credibility as a discipline to control our destiny.
Untimely Meditation: Nietzsche et cetera
Authors: Böhler Arno 
Published: December 2017

The following lecture performance was a part of the research festival Philosophy On Stage#4 at Tanzquartier Wien, where new relations between philosophy and the arts were tested and put into practice. The lecture starts with the claim that philosophical thinking necessarily performs the temporality of the untimely as a mode of being-in-time, which realises a revolt of time against its times in favour of a time to come. Being neither part of the past nor of eternity, the temporality of the untimely calls future events into being.Insofar as philosophy shares the temporality of the untimely with the arts, the lecture-performance defines arts-based philosophy––the alliance of art and philosophy, by which philosophy has started to implement artistic practices into philosophy––as a field for the appearance of the untimely. As Jacques Derrida has shown in Politics of Friendship, the proposition “Alas! if only you knew how soon, how very soon, things will be – different! –”, characterises precisely the aporetic principle of a democracy of the future, grounded in the temporality of the untimely. The genitive ‘of’ thereby indicates a mode of democracy which does only exist as long as it keeps itself open towards its own changeability and eventfulness. Therefore it necessarily takes place as the prelude of a future one is able to affirm full heartedly in advance, that is to say, over and over again. A mode of being-in-time that touches the secret of Nietzsche’s most abysmal thought: the thought of the eternal return of the same, in which somebody has realized the never ending eternity loops of be-coming; a life of immanence; a recurring movement of eternity within itself.

Published: December 2017

Abstract
Phthalate esters (PEs), a group of environmental pollutants which are possibly carcinogenic to humans, have been detected in seawater. Seven PEs in seawater were quantitatively determined by using gas-chromatography flame ionizing detection after executing dispersive liquid-liquid microextraction. The suggested method is optimized for microextraction and determination of PEs in artificial sea water. Factors affecting the microextraction procedure such as the type and volume of extracting and dispersive solvents (carbon tetrachloride, 20 μL; methanol, 0.5 mL), extraction time and pH (7) were investigated. Under optimum conditions, the limit of detection of the analytes were obtained between 0.04 and 4.52 μg·L−1, and linearity and linear range were of 0.999 ≥ R2 ≥ 0.994 and 10–560 μg·L−1 respectively. Enrichment factors were found in the range of 761–827 fold, while the relative standard deviations of the analytes were between 0.17 and 7.5% (n = 6) for real sea water samples. Using this method, total PEs content of seawater from several locations in Chabahar Bay (the southeast part of Iran) was estimated 2.33–90.45 μg·L−1.

Abstract
The successful development of aerobic granular sludge (AGS) for secondary wastewater treatment has been linked to a dedicated anaerobic feeding phase, which enables key microbes such as poly-phosphate-accumulating organisms (PAOs) and glycogen-accumulating organisms to gain a competitive advantage over floc-forming organisms. The application of AGS to treat high-saline sewage and its subsequent impacts on microbial ecology, however, are less well understood. In this study, the impacts of high-saline sewage on AGS development, performance and ecology were investigated using molecular microbiology methods. Two feeding strategies were compared at pilot scale: a full (100%) anaerobic feed; and a partial (33%) anaerobic feed. The results were compared to a neighbouring full-scale conventional activated sludge (CAS) system (100% aerobic). We observed that AGS developed under decreased anaerobic contact showed a comparable formation, stability and nitrogen removal performance to the 100% anaerobically fed system. Analysis of the microbial ecology showed that the altered anaerobic contact had minimal effect on the abundances of the functional nitrifying and denitrifying bacteria and Archaea; however, there were notable ecological differences when comparing different sized granules. In contrast to previous work, a large enrichment in PAOs in AGS was not observed in high-saline wastewater, which coincided with poor observed phosphate removal performance. Instead, AGS exhibited a substantial enrichment in sulfide-oxidising bacteria, which was complemented by elemental analysis that identified the presence of elemental sulfur precipitation. The potential role for these organisms in AGS treating high-saline wastewater is discussed.

Published: December 2017

Background:
Masses are one of the most important indicators of breast cancer in mammograms,
and their classification into two groups as benign and malignant is highly necessary.
Computer Aided Diagnosis (CADx) helps radiologists enhance the accuracy of their decision. Hence, the system is required to support and assess with radiologist's interaction as an expert.

Methods:
In this research, classification of breast masses using mammography in the two main
views which include MLO and CC, is evaluated with respect to the shape, texture and asymmetry
aspect. Additionally, a method was developed and proposed using the classification of breast tissue
density based on the decision tree.
</P><P>
Discussion: This study therefore, aims to provide a method based on the human decision-making
model that will help in designing the perfect tool for radiologists, regardless of the complexity of
computing, costly procedures and also reducing the diagnosis error.

Conclusion:
Results show that the proposed system for entirely fat, scattered fibroglandular densities,
heterogeneously dense, and extremely dense breast achieved 100, 99, 99 and 98% true malignant
rate, respectively with cross-validation procedure.

Cultura material e identidade étnica na arqueologia brasileira
Authors: Oliveira Jorge Eremites de 
Published: December 2017

Neste artigo o autor apresenta uma análise geral sobre a analogia direta entre cultura material e identidade étnica na arqueologia brasileira. Analisa de modo específico a associação entre populações portadoras da tradição Tupiguarani, assim definida na época do PRONAPA (Programa Nacional de Pesquisas Arqueológicas,1965-1970), e grupos étnicos lingüisticamente ligados ao tronco tupi. Para esses grupos tem sido atribuída uma identidade ou etnicidade genérica de “guarani”. O referido problema é discutido com mais profundidade por ocasião da apreciação de um laudo pericial sobre a Terra Indígena Sucuri’y, localizada no município de Maracaju, Estado de Mato Grosso do Sul, Brasil. No laudo analisado, a associação entre cultura material e identidade étnica remete ao debate a respeito do direito à terra por parte de uma comunidade indígena. Durante o estudo elaborado, o autor questiona os resultados finais da perícia produzida para a Justiça Federal e argumenta que existem evidências que sustentam a tese de que aquela área é, de fato, tradicionalmente ocupada pelos Kaiowá, de acordo com o que determina o Artigo 231, § 1°, da Constituição Federal de 1988.

The study locations were South Jakarta (Province of DKI Jakarta); Serang and Tangerang (Province of Banten); Bekasi, Bogor and Bandung (Province of West Java); Purwokerto, Semarang and Solo (Province of Central Java); Yogyakarta (Province of D.I.Yogyakarta); Malang, Jember and Surabaya (Province of East Java). The study was a part of a grand study on processing, acceptance, and consumption pattern of local soybean products at various socio-economic level of households in Java Island in 2005. The data were obtained by interviewing and observing 2080 households (consisted of 1280 households in urban and 800 households in rural areas) selected randomly. Soybean products that mostly found in the market and consumed by households of Indonesian people, particularly in Java Island, were tempe, tauco, soy-sauce, tofu, tofu-flower, soy-sprout, and oncom. The mostly ways to process the soy products were stir-frying, deep-frying, toasting, boiling, and ‘bacem’. Besides, there were also some soy products that consumed directly at a household level after factorized processing, namely as soy-sauce and soy-milk. The average time used to process the soy-products varied, depended on the way of processing and number of the product processed. Stir-frying, especially for tempe, tofu, and tauge, was a frequent way done by poor and rich households, both in urban and rural areas. The products that mostly processed by frying in rural household was tempe, tofu and soybean, meanwhile in urban areas were only tempe and tofu. The everage time used by urban households to fry the soy-products was shorter than time used by rural households. It was found that more than 90% of households in rural and urban areas stated “like” and “like very much” tempe, tofu, and soy-sauce. However, the acceptance level of household on tauco, soy-milk, and soy-flower was still low, namely less than 50%.</span></p>
