Monarchy–Global. Monarchical Self-Assertion in a Republican World
Authors: Langewiesche Dieter 
Published: May 2017

Monarchy – Global. Monarchical Self-Assertion in a Republican World In 1793, the French republic saw the guillotining of two royal heads. In 1934, Winston Churchill spoke of the «holocaust of crowns» within his lifetime. Today, the British Queen presides over the Commonwealth, which comprises mostly republics. At the same time, there have been calls a return of the kings to republics with respect to Africa. How is this astonishing self-assertion of the institutional monarchy to be explained, and why has the antagonism between the monarchy and the republic disappeared? This will be discussed in a paper through a global perspective. Churchill was convinced: «No institution pays such dividends as the monarchy. » What dividends were earned, and for whom? What has the global presence of European states meant for the institution of the monarchy in Europe, in imperial spaces, and in decolonisation? In order to be able to analyse this issue, our study questions the legitimacy which had been both accorded to and claimed by the institution monarchy. Does monarchical legitimacy differ in Europe, Asia and Africa? Why did monarchies survived while other states and empires were created and then destroyed in the nineteenth and twentieth centuries? The study places three areas in the center of our consideration: the role of the monarchy as the emotional center of the nation and the empire; monarchy as a polycentric rule; and lastly, monarchy as the institutionalisation of permanence in change. Finally, the study will discuss how a comparative assessment and review of the performances by the monarchy and the republic might look.
Las familias entre fines educativos y económicos. El caso de Chile

Published: May 2017

<p>Este artículo forma parte del proceso de problematización sobre la privatización de la educación en Latinoamérica con un especial enfoque sobre el caso chileno. Se analizan elementos del contexto Latinoamericano de medidas del siglo XX, cuando los Estados promueven la idea del capital humano por medio del crecimiento de sus sistemas educativos y la productividad como una razón de Estado. Crece en las familias del continente la promesa que por medio del acceso a la educación se encontraría la ansiada movilidad social. Confirmamos que para el inicio del siglo XXI esta promesa recae únicamente en los hombros de las familias quedando entregados al mercado </p><p>Sostenemos nuestra argumentación bajo el análisis de las diversas normativas que afectan al sistema educativo Chileno entre el periodo (1860-2008). En ellas observamos particularmente la normativa en Evaluación Educativa, que va marcando este tránsito como un mecanismo de gobierno de la población, regulando los flujos sociales, traspasando por medio de herramientas del mercado, la responsabilidad a las familias para escoger entre fines formativos y resultados académicos.</p>Finalmente concluimos con algunos alcances producto de este fenómeno que obliga a las familias a una doble renuncia. La renuncia económica que impone la inversión en educación por sobre otros proyectos alternativos. Y la renuncia que implica dejar sus propias formas significativas de relacionarse al interior de las familias, por la adopción de una cultura del éxito escolar.

Background: Retinopathy of Prematurity (ROP) is one of the most common causes of preventable blindness in children. Recent advances in the neonatology have increased preterm survival and so has the ROP incidence. Studies all over the world and across the country have shown a wide range for incidence of ROP and so it is difficult to gauge the exact incidence, especially in our region.Methods: This prospective observational study was conducted in neonatal units of the Department of Paediatrics, Dr. S. N. Medical College, Jodhpur for a duration of six months. All newborns delivered in hospitals associated with Dr S. N. Medical College with gestation age at birth <34weeks and 34-36weeks associated with risk factors subjected to ROP screening by indirect ophthalmoscope by a trained ophthalmologist. Neonates with congenital cataract, hazy cornea, abnormal anterior chamber and those who expired or lost to follow up before sufficient examination could be done were excluded.Results: Out of 250 newborns screened, 34 (13.6%) were found positive for ROP and out of these 34, 18 (52.94%) had stage I, 11 (32.35%) had stage II, 5 (14.7%) had stage III and none for stage IV and V. Prolonged oxygen therapy, low birth weight, apnoea and sepsis were found to be significant risk factor (p<0.05) with the relative risk of 12.49, 3.71, 3.03 and 1.91 respectively.Conclusions: ROP is a preventable cause of blindness in children. Thus, its screening is indispensable and it has to be intensified in presence of risk factors such as prolonged oxygen therapy, low birth weight, apnoea and sepsis.

Published: May 2017

Case:A 14-year-old male competitive soccer player presented with a history of recurrent right hip pain for 18 months. He was diagnosed with an anterior inferior iliac spine (AIIS) apophyseal avulsion fracture nonunion with subspinal impingement, which was confirmed by radiographs, computed tomography, and magnetic resonance imaging. The patient underwent surgical fixation and subspinal decompression. He returned to competitive soccer 5 months postoperatively.Conclusion:AIIS apophyseal avulsion fractures occur in adolescent athletes and generally respond to nonoperative treatment. When such management is unsuccessful, surgical fixation can lead to resolution of pain with return of full function.

Core Ideas
We investigated the photosynthetic characteristics of high‐yield summer maize with different heights.
We realized the regulatory effect of plant density on summer maize with different plant heights.
We discussed yield potential of summer maize with different plant height.
Three summer maize (Zea mays L.) hybrids with different plant heights, DengHai661 (low‐plant height hybrid, DH661), ChaoShi3 (medium‐plant height hybrid, CS3), and XianYu335 (high‐plant height hybrid, XY335), were used to explore photosynthetic characteristics of maize and its responses to plant density. Results showed that grain yield increased with the increase of plant density. At 90,000 plants ha−1, grain yield of DH661 was the highest. With increasing plant density, yield increment of DH661 was biggest, while leaf area index (LAI), chlorophyll content, and net photosynthetic rate (Pn) of DH661 changed less with increasing plant density. Grain yield of DH661 at 90,000 plants ha−1 increased by 34 and 21%, respectively, compared to that at 45,000 and 67,500 plants ha−1, CS3 increased by 18 and 9%, respectively, and XY335 increased by 7% and not significant (ns), respectively. Before the flowering stage, the photosynthesis of leaves that just entered function stage played a dominant role. After the flowering stage, the photosynthesis of top and middle leaves mainly played the leading role. The difference of Pn among three parts (top, middle, and bottom) of DH661 was less than that of XY335, and the same as the effect of plant density. There were no significant differences between DH661 and XY335 in the Pn of top leaves, while Pn of middle and bottom leaves of DH661 were significantly higher than that of CS3 and XY335. Visibly, low‐plant height hybrid might be more beneficial for high yield cultivation under dense planting conditions.

Core Ideas
Automation of mapping of soybean areas.
Use of remote sensors in the recognition of summer crop.
Development of exclusive vegetation index for soybean.
The aim of this study was to map areas cultivated with soybean [Glycine max (L.) Merr.] in Paraná state, Brazil, using mono‐ and multitemporal MODerate‐resolution imaging spectroradiometer (MODIS) images. We applied the vegetation index perpendicular crop enhancement index (PCEI) and threshold determination for the automation of soybean area discrimination by geo‐object (GEOBIA). For this mapping, vegetation indices (normalized difference vegetation index [NDVI], enhanced vegetation index [EVI], and crop enhancement index [CEI]) and the development of the PCEI were used with the aid of time‐series images from the TERRA/MODIS system‐sensor. A support analysis, based on geo‐objects and a decision tree based on data mining, was used to determine the new vegetation index. “Classification” and “merge region” algorithms and feature extraction were used for classification. To evaluate the precision of the classifications, the Kappa (κ) and overall accuracy (OA) parameters were applied. Regarding the ground line, R and R2 were above 0.92 and 0.84, respectively (p < 0.01). The test results indicate that the proposed methodology is efficient for mapping soybean distribution, with 0.80 for the Kappa parameter, an appropriate crop spatial distribution, and no over‐ or underestimation of areas. Thus, this study allows automated mapping of areas cultivated with soybean crops at large scales.
Learning to program with Game Maker
Authors: Johnson Claire 
Published: May 2017

Game Maker is widely used in UK secondary schools, yet under-researched in that context. This paper presents the findings of a qualitative case study that explores how authoring computer games using Game Maker can support the learning of basic programming concepts in a mainstream UK secondary setting. Â The research draws on the learning theory of constructionism, which asserts the importance of pupils using computers as â€˜building materialâ€™ to create digital artefacts (Papert, 1980; Harel and Papert, 1991), and considers the extent to which a constructionist approach is suitable for introducing basic programming concepts within a contemporary, game authoring context. Â The research was conducted in a high achieving comprehensive school in South East England. Twenty-two pupils (12 boys; 10 girls; 13-14 years old) completed a unit of work in computer game authoring over an eight-week (16 x 50 minute lessons) period. In planning and developing their games, they worked in self-selected pairs, apart from two pupils (one boy and one girl) who worked alone, by choice. Nine of the ten pairs were the same gender. Data were collected in planning documents, journals and the games pupils made, in recordings of their working conversations, and in pair, group and artefact-based interviews. Findings indicate that as well as learning some basic programming concepts, pupils enjoyed the constructionist-designed activity, demonstrated positive attitudes to their work, and felt a sense of achievement in creating a complex artefact that had personal and cultural significance for them. However, the findings also suggest that the constructionist approach adopted in the research did not effectively support the learning of programming concepts for all pupils. This research arises out of a perceived need to develop accessible, extended units of work to implement aspects of the Computing curriculum in England. It suggests that using Game Maker may offer a viable entry, and identifies the programming concepts and practices which pupils encountered, the difficulties they experienced, and the errors they made when authoring computer games. It also offers recommendations to increase the readiness with which students engage with key programming concepts and practices when using this visual programming software. In so doing it makes a practical contribution to the field of qualitative research in secondary computing education.Â
Effects of fulvic acid and ferric hydroxide on removal of Fe2+ and Mn2+ by oxidation and aerated/submerged ultrafiltration membrane system

Published: May 2017

Abstract
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the effects of fulvic acid (FA) and ferric hydroxide on the Fe2+ and Mn2+ removal by oxidation and aerated/submerged membrane systems. Firstly, the oxidation kinetics of Fe2+ and Mn2+ in the presence of FA and ferric hydroxide are discussed and then the contribution of the oxidation step in membrane experiments is determined. All experiments are conducted with synthetic drinking water and the concentration of contaminants is determined by characterization of two different drinking water sources in the city of Istanbul: Ömerli Dam Lake and Danamandıra Village groundwater. The addition of ferric hydroxide helps to mitigate fouling and enhances the rejection of Mn2+ by up to 90% by developing a secondary filtration layer on the membrane surface which has been considered a challenge in drinking water treatment plants.

This study aimed to evaluate the consequences of replacing growth promoter antibiotics by organic acids in diets of broilers. A completely randomized design was utilized, with 5 treatments (T1: negative control without antibiotics or organic acids; T2: latic, propionic and formic acids; T3: fumaric, formic, propionic and sorbic acids; T4: lactic, formic, fumaric and citric acids; T5: positive control, addition of antibiotic) and 7 replicates of 8 birds per experimental units. To evaluate de performance, the weight and feed intake were measured at different stages (1-21; 21-35; 35-42 day old). At 42 day old, 2 birds per pen were sacrificed with human methods to evaluate carcass yield, breast yield and leg yield. The results showed that organic acids have no influence on carcass yield and cuts. The performance should be better evaluated, because the experimental conditions don’t offer an enough environmental challenge for the additives (antibiotics and organic acids) can show their potential.

The establishment of beef cattle is a rise in circulation in various regions of Brazil. As eating is the main factor of cost of owner ship, it becomes very important to study ways to enhance the ability of dietary energy utilization by animals, makingit feasibleto use certain nutrients. For this reason, in recent years, there has been considerable interest in reducing losses of nitrogen (N) by ruminants. Among these means is the use of additives, some of which areal ready consolidated (antibiotics, ionophores, buffers) and others are still being evaluated (zeolite). The high cation exchange capacity and the marked preference for do NH4+, K+, Ca2+, Na+ e Mg2+ believe that the zeolite has a high potential to be used as a food additive.

During the summer, 24 sows (first weaning), from the breeds, Duroc Jersey, Wessex Saddleback and “Piau Canastra”, and his litters were used to evaluate the effects of supplemental heat (lamp 250 watts infra red brood). Heat lamp was removed from the farrowing area at 3 days post partum. The farrowing houses were located in Itapeva Recherché and Development Unit (Swine Experimental Station), at 684 meters above the sea, 23º 58’56”, sud latitude, and 48º 52’ 32” west. Longitude. There was no artificial temperature control in forrowing house and the means of temperature and relative humidity were 23ºC and 76%, respectively. A complete randomized design was utilized with 4 replicates and 6 treatments in 3 ´ 2 factorials. The factors were: breeds (Duroc, Wessex and Piau) and supplemental heat (with and without infra red lamp).The results showed that: 1) No significant differences at the 5% probability level were observed in baby pig survivals up to 5 days after birth, between and inside breeds, with or without supplemental heat; 2) The litters from native breed (Piau Canastra), presented a trend to have lower weight gain up to 5 days after birth than the exotics, however, only Wessex breed weight gain litters was significantly (P

Over three years, a survey was conducted in Campos dos Goytacazes city, in order to obtain an overview of pisciculture local. In this approach, questionnaires were applied to traders and fishermen, whose the main questions were related to the species sold, prices and conservation methods, fish-selling and most wanted, expectations of improvement in the marketing and exploration. No changes were observed over the three years for the sale of fish, that price stability was mainly due to low inflation in the period evaluated. There was no variation in the local extraction of marketable fish, seeing that all are owned by ponds, rivers and seas nearby. The marketing of marine species and freshwater in Campos city is developing slowly. Traders and fishermen have expectations of improvements since it has increased investment in infrastructure by the government.
Are Socially Responsible Firms Less Likely to Expatriate? An Examination of Corporate Inversions
Authors: Huang Henry He , Sun Li , Yu Tong (Robert 
Published: May 2017

ABSTRACT
This study examines whether corporate social responsibility (CSR) is related to the likelihood of corporate inversions, a legal tax-planning strategy. We use a full sample to test stakeholder theory and a risk management view of CSR. We find that firms with higher CSR performance are less likely to expatriate compared to firms with lower CSR performance. Although equity investors react positively to inversion announcements, we find that the reaction is less positive for firms with higher CSR ratings. These results are consistent with stakeholder theory. We do not find evidence that inversion firms experience significant improvements in operating performance after inversion. Overall, this study improves our understanding of the role of CSR in corporate expatriation decisions and has practical implications for a firm's stakeholders.

Carbon allocation to growth and storage in two evergreen species of contrasting successional status
Authors: Piper Frida I. , Sepúlveda Paulina , Bustos‐Salazar Angela , Zúñiga‐Feest Alejandra 
Published: May 2017

PREMISE OF THE STUDY:A prevailing hypothesis in forest succession is that shade‐tolerant species grow more slowly than shade‐intolerant species, across light conditions, because they prioritize carbon (C) allocation to storage. We examined this hypothesis in a confamilial pair of species, including one of the fastest‐growing tree species in the world (Eucalyptus globulus) and a shade‐tolerant, slow‐growing species (Luma apiculata).METHODS:Seedlings were subjected to one out of four combinations of light (high vs. low) and initial defoliation (90% defoliated vs. nondefoliated) for four months. Growth, C storage concentration in different organs, leaf shedding, and lateral shoot formation were measured at the end of the experiment.KEY RESULTS:Eucalyptus globulus grew faster than L. apiculata in high light, but not in low light. Both species had lower C storage concentration in low than in high light, but similar C storage concentrations in each light condition. Defoliation had no effect on C storage, except in the case of the old leaves of both species, which showed lower C storage levels in response to defoliation. Across treatments, leaf shedding was 96% higher in E. globulus than in L. apiculata while, in contrast, lateral shoot formation was 87% higher in L. apiculata.CONCLUSIONS:In low light, E. globulus prioritized C storage instead of growth, whereas L. apiculata prioritized growth and lateral branching. Our results suggest that shade tolerance depends on efficient light capture rather than C conservation traits.
Tidal Tails around the Outer Halo Globular Clusters Eridanus and Palomar 15

Published: May 2017

Abstract
We report the discovery of tidal tails around the two outer halo globular clusters, Eridanus and Palomar 15, based on gi-band images obtained with DECam at the CTIO 4 m Blanco Telescope. The tidal tails are among the most remote stellar streams currently known in the Milky Way halo. Cluster members have been determined from the color–magnitude diagrams and used to establish the radial density profiles, which show, in both cases, a strong departure in the outer regions from the best-fit King profile. Spatial density maps reveal tidal tails stretching out on opposite sides of both clusters, extending over a length of ∼760 pc for Eridanus and ∼1160 pc for Palomar 15. The great circle projected from the Palomar 15 tidal tails encompasses the Galactic Center, while that for Eridanus passes close to four dwarf satellite galaxies, one of which (Sculptor) is at a comparable distance to that of Eridanus.
