This study aims to improve the economic value of farmers' land, so the land can be planted with legumes right by the soil nutrient. Many farming communities are still using the self-taught learning and experience from generation to generation in the determination of the types of legumes were planted them, causing yields are not optimal. And so we need a system that can help farmers to determine the type of legumes matching based nutrient soil to be processed. The study was conducted in the five District in Gunungkidul for data collection in the field. The results of data collection in the field can be a benchmark for decision makers farmers to determine the type of legume crops to be planted based on the criteria of soil nutrients . Criteria are a barometer of determining the type of legumes is the KTK, base saturation, O, Ca, C / N, Magnesium, Carbon. Determining the level of importance of each criterion and to calculate the value of suitability types of legumes based on each of these criteria were analyzed using ELECTRE. With this system the maximum expected agricultural output, thus increasing the economic value of Gunungkidul regency. Keywords : Identification, legumes, Electre

OBJECTIVEGamma Knife radiosurgery (GKRS) is frequently used to treat residual or recurrent nonfunctioning pituitary macroadenomas. There is no consensus as to whether GKRS should be used early after surgery or if radiosurgery should be withheld until there is evidence of imaging-defined progression of tumor. Given the high incidence of adenoma progression after subtotal resection over time, the present study intended to evaluate the effect of timing of radiosurgery on outcome.METHODSThis is a multicenter retrospective review of patients with nonfunctioning pituitary macroadenomas who underwent transsphenoidal surgery followed by GKRS from 1987 to 2015 at 9 institutions affiliated with the International Gamma Knife Research Foundation. Patients were matched by adenoma and radiosurgical parameters and stratified based on the interval between last resection and radiosurgery. Operative results, imaging data, and clinical outcomes were compared across groups following early (≤ 6 months after resection) or late (> 6 months after resection) radiosurgery.RESULTSAfter matching, 222 patients met the authors’ study criteria (from an initial collection of 496 patients) and were grouped based on early (n = 111) or late (n = 111) GKRS following transsphenoidal surgery. There was a greater risk of tumor progression after GKRS (p = 0.013) and residual tumor (p = 0.038) in the late radiosurgical group over a median imaging follow-up period of 68.5 months. No significant difference in the occurrence of post-GKRS endocrinopathy was observed (p = 0.68). Thirty percent of patients without endocrinopathy in the early cohort developed new endocrinopathies during the follow-up period versus 27% in the late cohort (p = 0.84). Fourteen percent of the patients in the early group and 25% of the patients in the late group experienced the resolution of endocrine dysfunction after original presentation (p = 0.32).CONCLUSIONSIn this study, early GKRS was associated with a lower risk of radiological progression of subtotally resected nonfunctioning pituitary macroadenomas compared with expectant management followed by late radiosurgery. Delaying radiosurgery may increase patient risk for long-term adenoma progression. The timing of radiosurgery does not appear to significantly affect the rate of delayed endocrinopathy.

Published: October 2017

Bangladesh has a great demand of beef but it has been facing demand and supply mismatches due to insufficient production and supply of beef, low carcass yield of native cattle and recent no-cattle export policy of a long bordered neighboring country. Thus, the present work was undertaken with an objective to develop market beef cattle of average >150 Kg carcass weight by 24 months with an average FCR of <6.50 under on farm feeding and management condition. Aiming at developing breeding bulls the native dams of BCB-1 (BLRI Cattle Breed 1) were inseminated with the imported frozen semen of Brahman, Simmental, Charolais and Limousin. The crossbred progeny of different assorted F1 genotypes were being selected and their production and breeding performance were evaluated and compared with BCB-1. All pregnant (> 6 months of gestation period) cows were in pre-natal care, and all calves were raised in a single plane of nutrition and management. All crossbred progeny performed better than BCB-1 in terms of live weights and average daily gains. Among the crossbreds, Charolais×BCB-1 had the highest (p<0.001) birth weight (27.5±1.52 kg) followed by Brahman×BCB-1 (24.1±1.23), Simmental×BCB-1 (21.9±1.78), Limousin×BCB-1 (19.8±1.39) and BCB-1×BCB-1 (18.4±1.09), and the genotypes differences were highly significant (p<0.001). In average growth curve, Simmental cross grew faster followed by Charolais, Limousin, Brahman crosses and purebred BCB-1. The genotype×environment interaction was only observed in birth weight. Purebred BCB-1 had the lowest daily DM intake and showed the lowest FCR in all ages compare to other crosses. Calf scour and alopecia occurred in all genotypes. In this breeding program, calf mortality was found as 5.26%. Simmental×BCB-1 is performing as the best among the five genotypes in terms of growth up to 12 month of age.Bang. J. Anim.

Formation and Reconnection of Three-dimensional Current Sheets with a Guide Field in the Solar Corona
Authors: Edmondson J. K. , Lynch B. J. 
Published: October 2017

Abstract
We analyze a series of three-dimensional magnetohydrodynamic numerical simulations of magnetic reconnection in a model solar corona to study the effect of the guide-field component on quasi-steady-state interchange reconnection in a pseudostreamer arcade configuration. This work extends the analysis of Edmondson et al. by quantifying the mass density enhancement coherency scale in the current sheet associated with magnetic island formation during the nonlinear phase of plasmoid-unstable reconnection. We compare the results of four simulations of a zero, weak, moderate, and a strong guide field,

, to quantify the plasmoid density enhancement’s longitudinal and transverse coherency scales as a function of the guide-field strength. We derive these coherency scales from autocorrelation and wavelet analyses, and demonstrate how these scales may be used to interpret the density enhancement fluctuation’s Fourier power spectra in terms of a structure formation range, an energy continuation range, and an inertial range—each population with a distinct spectral slope. We discuss the simulation results in the context of solar and heliospheric observations of pseudostreamer solar wind outflow and possible signatures of reconnection-generated structure.
Les PME industrielles dans l’économie japonaise de 1880 à nos jours
Authors: Donzé Pierre-Yves 
Published: October 2017

Cet article porte sur la place des PME industrielles au sein du système économique et de la politique économique du Japon des années 1880 à nos jours. Sur la base de statistiques et de rapports officiels, ainsi que de publications académiques, essentiellement en langue japonaise, il met en lumière la situation de dépendance des PME envers les grandes entreprises, jusque dans les années 1970 (dans le cadre d’une « double structure industrielle »), et la permanence d’une politique visant à « moderniser » les PME. Cette contribution montre également l’existence de PME spécialisées et compétitives, qui commencent à être perçues positivement par le gouvernement depuis les années 1970 et deviennent peu à peu un modèle à suivre, et non plus un problème à résoudre, pour permettre à l’économie japonaise de retrouver le chemin de la croissance.
À l’intersection du genre et de l’origine nationale : quels sont les parcours professionnels des immigrants sélectionnés au Québec ?
Authors: Lacroix Julie , Gagnon Alain , Lortie Vincent 
Published: October 2017

Les différences d’insertion dans l’emploi entre immigrés et natifs sont étroitement liées à l’origine nationale et au genre. Alors que le désavantage des hommes immigrés non occidentaux est souvent expliqué en termes de discrimination et de transférabilité du capital humain, celui des femmes immigrées repose plutôt sur un argumentaire culturel, selon lequel la participation des femmes au marché du travail serait le reflet des rôles de genre dans la région d’origine. En utilisant les données d’enquête sur les travailleurs sélectionnés au Québec, nous examinons la rapidité avec laquelle les immigrés accèdent à l’emploi selon la nationalité et le genre. Ces derniers sont tous des requérants principaux de la catégorie des travailleurs qualifiés au Québec. Les facteurs liés aux « barrières culturelles », censés freiner l’accès des femmes à l’emploi, sont ainsi neutralisés dans l’analyse des différents groupes se destinant au marché du travail. Des modèles de Cox avec interactions montrent que l’effet de genre se juxtapose à celui de l’origine nationale des immigrés et révèlent des différences de genre pour l’accès au premier emploi, qui sont principalement modulées par les connaissances linguistiques. Au contraire, l’accès à un emploi conforme au niveau d’éducation diffère selon l’origine nationale, indépendamment du genre.
Retour sur la vacma à la Sncf et l’action de la Cgt : la parole de deux syndicalistes
Authors: Foot Robin 
Published: October 2017

Dans cet entretien, deux syndicalistes Cgt à la retraite, anciens conducteurs de train, reviennent sur cette période qui a vu la traction basculer rapidement de la vapeur à l’électricité. Cette transformation radicale s’est accompagnée de la disparition de l’aide conducteur remplacé par un « Homme mort ». Ils rappellent que la vapeur, c’était aussi l’amiante et le cancer. Cinquante ans plus tard, ils évoquent la question de la fraude au dispositif de veille, le « blocage » plus librement qu’à l’époque de l’enquête menée par L. Le Guillant. Ils parlent aussi de la fin de cette lutte contre la vacma et l’agent seul au début des années 1970 avec l’effet « Programme commun ».
Assembly of customized food pantries in a food bank by fuzzy optimization
Authors: Cuevas Ortuño Jonathan , Gómez Padilla Alejandra 
Published: October 2017

Purpose: The contribution of this research is to propose a new problem of linear-mixed programming model (LMPM) for the allocation-packing of multiple pantries personalized for Food Banks (FB) considering the opinion of the Decision Maker (DM) in the selection of the best solution.Design/methodology/approach: A food allocation-packing system is modeled as a mixed integer problem (MIP) and a fuzzy mixed integer linear problem (FMILP). 250 families and 100 products were considered. The solutions were found using Lingo 13® (for both deterministic and fuzzy model). To select a good solution in the fuzzy model, this research adapted an interactive method proposed in the literature. The relevance of this modification is that the opinion of a decision maker (DM) is included and considered.Findings: The results for the deterministic and fuzzy model are compared in terms of their accomplishment of the restrictions (mainly nutritional and logistic) and the time needed to achieve a solution. Research limitations/implications: This paper was done considering quantity, weight and volume restrictions so that in theory, the pantry will be able to contain different products; it is not considered how the products will be stored into the pantry.Practical implications: This research proposes an alternative food management system at a food bank. The proposed system organizes the content of customized food pantries by the bias of a food allocation model.Social implications: Our paper analyzes a Food Bank (FB) in México. With this proposal, food will be distributed to families in poverty considering their particular nutritional needs.Originality/value: The main contribution of this article lies in the proposal of a new model of mixed integer linear problem (MILP) for the allocationpacking of food, solved with fuzzy posibilistic programming that simultaneously considers nutritional and logistic restrictions applied to a type of organization that has been little studied in the literature and where the opinion of Decision Maker (DM) is very important in the operational decisions involved in the Food Supply Chain (FSC) of a Food Bank (FB).

Abstract
Whole-sporozoite vaccines confer sterilizing immunity to malaria-naive individuals by unknown mechanisms. In the first PfSPZ Vaccine trial ever in a malaria-endemic population, Vδ2 γδ T cells were significantly elevated and Vγ9/Vδ2 transcripts ranked as the most upregulated in vaccinees who were protected from Plasmodium falciparum infection. In a mouse model, absence of γδ T cells during vaccination impaired protective CD8 T cell responses and ablated sterile protection. γδ T cells were not required for circumsporozoite protein–specific Ab responses, and γδ T cell depletion before infectious challenge did not ablate protection. γδ T cells alone were insufficient to induce protection and required the presence of CD8α+ dendritic cells. In the absence of γδ T cells, CD8α+ dendritic cells did not accumulate in the livers of vaccinated mice. Altogether, our results show that γδ T cells were essential for the induction of sterile immunity during whole-organism vaccination.
Infection of Ferrets with Influenza Virus Elicits a Light Chain–Biased Antibody Response against Hemagglutinin

Published: October 2017

Abstract
The domestic ferret (Mustela putorius furo) is a commonly used animal model for the study of influenza virus infection and vaccination. Recently, our group has developed murine mAbs with specificity for the κ (Igκ) and λ (Igλ) L chains of ferret Ig. These mAbs were used to quantify the abundance of Igκ and Igλ in serum and to evaluate L chain usage of the Ab response against the hemagglutinin (HA) protein elicited by influenza infection. After influenza A infection of immunologically naive ferrets with various H1N1 or H3N2 strains, the acute Ab response against HA exhibited an inherent bias toward λ L chain usage. In contrast, secondary infection of H1N1 preimmune ferrets with an antigenically distinct H1N1 virus elicited a recall response against the original HA that was no longer biased toward Igλ and possessed differential specificity. Moreover, sequential infection of ferrets with H1N1 influenza viruses elicited an Igκ-biased Ab response directed against the HA globular head and stem regions. Furthermore, sequential infection of ferrets with viral vectors expressing chimeric HA, aimed at boosting Ab reactivity against the HA stem region, also elicited an Igκ-biased response. Collectively, these findings suggest that ferret B cells expressing an Igκ or Igλ BCR possess differential specificities, and highlight the utility of our recently developed mAbs for studying the immune response to influenza virus infection and vaccination in the ferret model.
Modeling the erythemal surface diffuse irradiance fraction for Badajoz, Spain
Authors: Sanchez Guadalupe , Serrano Antonio , Cancillo María Luisa 
Published: October 2017

Abstract. Despite its important role on the human health and numerous biological processes, the diffuse component of the erythemal ultraviolet irradiance (UVER) is scarcely measured at standard radiometric stations and therefore needs to be estimated. This study proposes and compares 10 empirical models to estimate the UVER diffuse fraction. These models are inspired from mathematical expressions originally used to estimate total diffuse fraction, but, in this study, they are applied to the UVER case and tested against experimental measurements. In addition to adapting to the UVER range the various independent variables involved in these models, the total ozone column has been added in order to account for its strong impact on the attenuation of ultraviolet radiation. The proposed models are fitted to experimental measurements and validated against an independent subset. The best-performing model (RAU3) is based on a model proposed by Ruiz-Arias et al. (2010) and shows values of r2 equal to 0.91 and relative root-mean-square error (rRMSE) equal to 6.1 %. The performance achieved by this entirely empirical model is better than those obtained by previous semi-empirical approaches and therefore needs no additional information from other physically based models. This study expands on previous research to the ultraviolet range and provides reliable empirical models to accurately estimate the UVER diffuse fraction.

In this work the antimicrobial effect of Thymus vulgare and Origanum vulgare aqueous tea infusion on the total mesophilic bacterial count (TVC), psychrotrophic bacteria count (PBC) and enterococci count in the heat treated meat product - sausages were evaluated. To prepare 1 kg of sausage in experimental groups were used 10 cm3 of Thymus vulgare resp. Origanum vulgare aqueous tea infusions. It was found that value of TVC and PBC in the experimental groups of sausages with Thymus vulgare addition after 7 days of storage (4 °C) were 2.78 resp. 2.14 log cfu.g-1 and with the Origanum vulgare addition were 2.49 resp. 1.90 log cfu.g-1. The value of TVC and PBC in the control group of sausage were 3.13 resp. 2.72 log cfu.g-1. During 10 days of storage (4 °C) the TVC and PBC in the sausages with Thymus vulgare addition increase and reached the value 4.81 resp. 3.52 log cfu.g-1. In the sausages with the Origanum vulgare addition TVC and PBC after 10 days of storage reached the value 3.67 resp. 1.60 log cfu.g-1. The value of TVC and PBC in the control group of sausage after 10 days of storage were 6.47 resp. 5.47 log cfu.g-1. Counts of enterococci in control and experimental groups of sausages during 10 days of storage were not detected. Thyme and origanum aqueous tea infusions suppressed the development of TVC and PBC compare to control samples.
“You'd Oughter Start a Scrap-Book”: Gossip and Aspirational Culture inThe House of MirthandThe Custom of the Country
Authors: Dawley M. M. 
Published: October 2017

AbstractIn Edith Wharton's novels The House of Mirth (1905) and The Custom of the Country (1913), both protagonists are subject to a great deal of gossip; only one, however, manages to learn how to manipulate that gossip to her benefit. With the character of Lily Bart, Wharton illustrates the danger of attempting to maintain one's scruples in a world of speculation; with Undine Spragg, she highlights the advantages of amorality in a society fascinated with publicity. If one examines the trajectory of gossip—both whispered and printed—in the two novels, a pattern of destruction and reconstruction emerges. Lily begins as a famous society belle, whose ultimate ejection from the upper echelons of society takes place in front of a society columnist. Wharton later presented a more ambitious and less ethical version of Lily with the character Undine Spragg-Moffatt-Marvell-de Chelles-Moffatt, who measures her own social progress, as well as the relative position of others, by counting citations in Town Talk. If Undine's beauty is not publicly discussed, much less admired, to her it no longer holds its worth. By comparing Lily with Undine, a different Edith Wharton emerges—one less aligned with the values of old New York and one more dedicated to satirizing the aspirational culture that still dominates American society.
An Unknown Letter from Edith Wharton to Minnie Bourget

Published: October 2017

Abstract
In 2013, in a Paris library, I found a long and interesting letter from Edith Wharton to Minnie Bourget. Among other things, Wharton discusses her reading—including Henry James's latest (but unnamed) novel—and her own writing. In this article I explain why I think the letter was written in 1896, and what new questions the date opens up.
ÍNDIOS E TERRAS: PANORAMA DA QUESTÃO INDÍGENA NO CEARÁ

Published: October 2017

As terras indígenas vêm sendo alvo de disputa desde a chegada dos colonizadores no território que hoje forma o Brasil. No entanto, o debate científico acerca desta problemática ainda não representa a real dimensão destes conflitos. Deste modo, o presente trabalho reflete através de uma abordagem teórica da questão dos povos indígenas, primeiramente no Brasil e, afunilando a abordagem, focaliza no estado do Ceará. Para isso, se fez uma coleta de dados em órgãos como o Instituto Brasileiro de Geografia e Estatística (IBGE), Fundação Nacional do Índio (FUNAI), além de organizações não governamentais que atuam na área indígena. Estes resultados foram organizados em tabelas, mapas e gráficos com o fim de apresentarem um panorama da questão das terras e das tribos indígenas no estado. Este se inicia através de um resgate histórico da questão do índio no Brasil, demonstrando como a atual configuração destas populações se construiu. Este processo repete-se mais a frente no texto, desta vez, focalizado nos povos nativos cearenses. Posteriormente, o texto adentra nos processos legais referentes a preservação dos territórios indígenas e culmina com o mapeamento das terras em disputa e da atual situação de seus processos e de seus povos, resultando assim em um panorama da questão indígena no Ceará.
