Reconsidering The Provenance of Deuteronomy
Authors: Nicholson Ernest 
Published: February 2013

It is argued that the exilic period among the exiles in Babylon provides the context proper of the crisis which Deuteronomy presupposes and also of its leading features, for example its ethos of »encroachment«. The book is shot through with apprehension for continued fidelity to YHWH, which evidently cannot be taken for granted – hence its authors’ distinctive hortatory style: exhorting, cautioning, promising, threatening. The book has been aptly described as one of »memory making« in the face of a prevailing state of »forgetfulness« among those whom its authors addressed. Responding to historical circumstances that had overtaken much inherited religious practice and symbolism, the thinking and teaching of its authors reflect a shift from Israelite religion and institutions of the pre-exilic period to the antecedents of post-exilic Judaism.
On présente ici la thèse que le contexte de la situation de crise présupposée par le Deutéronome correspond à l’exil à Babylone, et il en est de même pour son éthique de l’empiètement – implication (»encroachment«). Le livre est traversé par le souci de la fidélité permanente à Yhwh, qui n’était apparemment pas évidente. C’est ainsi que s’explique le style persuasif de ses auteurs: encourageant, avertissant, promettant, menaçant. On a bien défini ce livre comme une oeuvre créatrice de mémoire face à l’oubli progressif de l’histoire, qui caractérise ses destinataires. Répondant ainsi aux circonstances historiques qui font paraître désuètes la pratique et la symbolique religieuses anciennes, la pensée et l’enseignement des auteurs du Deutéronome reflètent le passage de la religion et des institutions d’Israël de l’époque préexilique vers les précurseurs du judaïsme post-exilique.
Es wird die These aufgestellt, dass das babylonische Exil sowohl für die vom Deuteronomium vorausgesetzte Krisensituation als auch für bestimmte Charakteristika, etwa sein Ethos des Übergriffs] (encroachment), den passenden Kontext bildet. Das Buch ist durchsetzt von der Sorge um die fortgesetzte Treue zu Jhwh, die offensichtlich nicht selbstverständlich war. So erklärt sich der eindringliche Stil seiner Autoren: ermahnend, warnend, verheißend, drohend. Das Buch ist treffend beschrieben worden als eines, das Erinnerung stiftet angesichts einer unter den Adressaten andauernden Situation der Geschichtsvergessenheit. Antwortend auf die geschichtlichen Gegebenheiten, welche die ererbte religiöse Praxis und Symbolik überholt erscheinen ließ, spiegelt das Denken und Lehren der Verfasser des Deuteronomiums den Übergang von der israelitischen Religion und den Institutionen der vorexilischen Zeit hin zu den Vorläufern des nachexilischen Judentums wider.

“ganz normale Jugendliche, allerdings meist mit Migrationshintergrund„. Eine funktional-semantische Analyse von “Migrationshintergrund„
Authors: Scarvaglieri Claudio , Zech Claudia 
Published: February 2013

Abstract
The term “Migrationshintergrund„ (migration background) features veryprominently in public German discourses on education and social integration.It serves to explain differences in educational success, income, standardof living, etc. Whereas its official attribution is based on a person’s(and his or her parents’) birthplace, this article examines its actual use inGerman newspapers and reconstructs its meaning according to the use ofthe term in the German language community. As a starting point, the emergenceand historical development of the term is briefly recapitulated andthe meaning of its constituents (“Migration„, “Hintergrund„) is investigatedboth from a diachronic and a synchronic perspective. On this basis,a corpus of 4601 instances of the use of the term “Migrationshintergrund„is analyzed. We first point to four exemplary instances in order to give anunderstanding of what can actually be said about persons with a “Migrationshintergrund„.In a second, quantitative hermeneutical step, categoriesof typical usage are derived from the data. This allows the identification ofthe most important aspects of the meaning of “Migrationshintergrund„.The results are validated by comparing them with the co-occurrences of“Migrationshintergrund„ in the same corpus and in a comparative corpus(Leipziger Wortschatzportal). Overall, it appears that “Migrationshintergrund„is used to distinguish between ‘real Germans’ and people who areofficially German, but are not felt to be part of the German community.These persons are seen as a group of ‘Others’ that presents challenges forthe majority because they are not sufficiently integrated and need socialsupport. Against this backdrop, it is investigated whether the concept of“Migrationshintergrund„ does indeed capture salient dimensions of socialstratification, arguing that socio-economic and linguistic factors allow fora much more thorough understanding of social processes than the notion oforigin as it is captured by “Migrationshintergrund„. It is concluded that “Migrationshintergrund„ therefore serves as a means to prevent discourseon social change and that the term and mental concept of “Migrationshintergrund„should be avoided in future linguistic research.
Solid phase extraction of trivalent actinides and lanthanides using a novel CMPO-RTIL based chromatographic resin
Authors: Ansari S. A. , Mohapatra P. K. 
Published: February 2013

Abstract
A novel extraction chromatographic resin was prepared by impregnating CMPO-RTIL (C8mim+·NTf2
−) on Chromosrob-W for the removal of trivalent actinides from aqueous solution and its behaviour was compared with previously reported CMPO-n-dodecane resin. Under identical condition, the K
d value of Am(III) by CMPO-RTIL resin (K
d at 3 M HNO3 = 5805 ± 525) was one order magnitude higher than that obtained with CMPO-n-dodecane resin (K
d at 3 M HNO3 = 610 ± 55). The sorption reaction of Am(III) followed a first-order rate law with both the resins. The metal sorption capacities for Eu(III) at 3 M HNO3 were found to be 18.95 ± 1.13 mg and 20.52 ± 1.25 mg/g of CMPO-RTIL and CMPO-n-dodecane resins, respectively. The analysis of the sorption data by different models supported the hypothesis that the sorption of Eu(III) on the resins was actually limited by the saturation of the CMPO complexing sites on the resin. The free energy for the sorption of Eu(III) obtained from D–R isotherm was 17.67 ± 1.63 kJ/mol and 16.51 ± 2.05 kJ/Mol for CMPO-RTIL and CMPO-n-dodecane resins, respectively. The sorption free energy is an indication of chemisorption monolayer mechanism. The monolayer sorption mechanism was also confirmed by the theoretical approach calculated based on the sorption kinetics.
Thermodynamics of Np(IV) complexes with gluconic acid under alkaline conditions: sorption studies
Authors: Rojo Henar , Tits Jan , Gaona Xavier , Garcia-Gutiérrez Miguel , Missana Tiziana , Wieland Erich 
Published: February 2013

Abstract
The complexation of Np(IV) with gluconic acid (GLU) under alkaline conditions was investigated in the absence of Ca by carrying out a series of sorption experiments. The decrease of Np(IV) sorption on the sorbing material at increasing concentrations of GLU was interpreted as the formation of Np(IV)-GLU aqueous complexes. The modelling of experimental data according to the Schubert method [1] confirmed the formation of a complex with a Np : GLU ratio 1 : 1. The stoichiometry of the complex Np(OH)4GLU− was proposed based on the experimental observation that no proton exchange occurred during the course of the complexation reaction and that Np(OH)4(aq) was the predominant hydrolysis product in the absence of GLU. A log *

0 = −2.92 ± 0.30 for the formation reaction Np4+ + 4H2O + GLU−⇔Np(OH)4GLU− + 4H+ was calculated based on the conditional stability constants determined from sorption experiments and using the Np(IV) thermodynamic data selected in the NEA reviews [2].
Linear free energy relationships (LFER) confirmed that the stoichiometry and stability of the Np(IV)-GLU complex characterized in this work are consistent with data available for Th(IV)-, U(IV)- and Pu(IV)-GLU complexes.
On the Influence of Molecular Structure on the Conductivity of Electrolyte Solutions – Sodium Chloride in Dioxane–Water Mixtures
Authors: Krienke Hartmut , Ahn-Ercan Gudrun , Maurer Alexander 
Published: February 2013

AbstractTheoretical calculations of the conductivity of sodium chloride in water+1,4-dioxane mixtures are presented and compared with experimental measurements. The method of direct correlation force in the framework of the interionic theory is used for the calculation of transport properties in connection with the associative mean spherical approximation (AMSA). The effective interactions between ions in solutions are derived with the help of Monte Carlo calculations on the Born–Oppenheimer level. This work is based on earlier studies on structure of dioxane+water mixtures and the solvation of ions in it.
Beyond Cultural Values: An Implicit Theory Approach to Cross-Cultural Research in Accounting Ethics
Authors: Wong-On-Wing Bernard , Lui Gladie 
Published: February 2013

ABSTRACT:
The value dimensional approach for conducting cross-cultural studies in accounting has been subject to various critiques leading to calls for alternative conceptualization and operationalization of culture. The present research responds to those calls by testing the viability of using implicit theories as an alternative to value dimensions for studying cultural differences in the context of morality judgments. Consistent with expectations, results of Experiment I indicate that, independent of cultural values, differences in the implicit theory of causality between Chinese and Americans explained their divergence in inferences about the morality of a fraudster. In Experiments II and III, this effect of implicit theories was compared respectively with that of the individualism/collectivism value dimension and that of the power distance value dimension. Results show that the effect of implicit theories remained significant whereas the effect of both value dimensions was not significant. Implications for future research are discussed.

Authors: Panou Eleni , Motro Melih , Ateş Mustafa , Acar Ahu , Erverdi Nejat 
Published: February 2013

ABSTRACT

Objective:
To evaluate the pharyngeal airway and maxillary sinus volume changes after mandibular setback surgery combined with maxillary advancement and/or impaction surgery.

Materials and Methods:
Seventeen Class III skeletal patients (11 females, 6 males) who required bimaxillary orthognathic surgery were selected. Volumetric measurements were performed using cone beam computed tomography (CBCT) scans preoperatively and 3.9 ± 0.87 months postoperatively. All the CBCT scans were assessed and analyzed using MIMICS 14.0 software. Preoperative and postoperative volumes of pharyngeal airway and maxillary sinuses and the relationship between the amounts of surgical movement of the jaws and the above volumes were statistically evaluated.

Results:
The pharyngeal airway area presented no significant change except for the lower and total pharyngeal airway volumes in males, in whom a significant decrease was observed (4196.27 ± 2061.11 mm3 and 3375.53 ± 3624.67 mm3, respectively). No significant change was observed in the minimal cross-sectional area of the pharyngeal airway. There was a significant decrease in the volume of the maxillary sinuses after the surgery by 3448.09 ± 3315.56 mm3. No correlation was found between the amount of skeletal movement and the change in the volume of pharyngeal airway or maxillary sinuses.

Conclusion:
There was a significant decrease only for lower and total pharyngeal airway volumes in males and a significant decrease in the volume of the maxillary sinuses.
Intracranial pressure and cardiopulmonary variables during isoflurane or sevoflurane anesthesia at various minimum alveolar concentration multiples in normocapnic dogs
Authors: Chohan Amandeep S. , Greene Stephen A. , Keegan Robert D. , Grubb Tamara L. , Chen Annie V. 
Published: February 2013

Abstract
Objective—To compare effects of isoflurane and sevoflurane on intracranial pressure and cardiovascular variables at 1.0, 1.5, and 2.0 times the minimum alveolar concentration (MAC) in mechanically ventilated normocapnic dogs.
Animals—6 healthy male Beagles.
Procedures—The individual MAC was determined for each agent with an electrical stimulus. After a minimum of 1 week, anesthetic induction by use of a mask with one of the inhalation anesthetics selected randomly was followed by mechanical ventilation and instrumentation for measurement of intracranial pressure and cardiovascular variables. Heart rate; systolic, mean, and diastolic arterial blood pressures; central venous pressure; mean pulmonary arterial pressure; pulmonary artery occlusion pressure; cardiac output; intracranial pressure (ICP); core body temperature; end-tidal inhalation anesthetic and carbon dioxide concentration; and arterial blood gas values were measured after attaining equilibrium at 1.0, 1.5, and 2.0 MAC of each inhalation anesthetic. Cardiac index, systemic vascular resistance, pulmonary vascular resistance, and cerebral perfusion pressure (CPP) were calculated.
Results—Mean ICP did not differ within and between anesthetics at any MAC. Compared with equipotent concentrations of isoflurane, the CPP and mean values for systolic, mean, and diastolic arterial blood pressures were increased at 2.0 MAC for sevoflurane, whereas mean values for mean and diastolic arterial blood pressures and systemic vascular resistance were increased at 1.5 MAC for sevoflurane.
Conclusions and Clinical Relevance—Although ICP was similar in healthy normocapnic dogs, CPP was better maintained during 2.0 MAC for sevoflurane, compared with isoflurane.

Published: February 2013

Abstract
Objective—To compare pharmacokinetics after IV, IM, and oral administration of a single dose of meloxicam to Hispaniolan Amazon parrots (Amazona ventralis).
Animals—11 healthy parrots.
Procedures—Cohorts of 8 of the 11 birds comprised 3 experimental groups for a crossover study. Pharmacokinetics were determined from plasma concentrations measured via high-performance liquid chromatography after IV, IM, and oral administration of meloxicam at a dose of 1 mg/kg.
Results—Initial mean ± SD plasma concentration of 17.3 ± 9.0 μg/mL was measured 5 minutes after IV administration, whereas peak mean concentration was 9.3 ± 1.8 μg/mL 15 minutes after IM administration. At 12 hours after administration, mean plasma concentrations for IV (3.7 ± 2.5 μg/mL) and IM (3.5 ± 2.2 μg/mL) administration were similar. Peak mean plasma concentration (3.5 ± 1.2 μg/mL) was detected 6 hours after oral administration. Absolute systemic bioavailability of meloxicam after IM administration was 100% but was lower after oral administration (range, 49% to 75%). Elimination half-lives after IV, IM, and oral administration were similar (15.9 ± 4.4 hours, 15.1 ± 7.7 hours, and 15.8 ± 8.6 hours, respectively).
Conclusions and Clinical Relevance—Pharmacokinetic data may provide useful information for use of meloxicam in Hispaniolan Amazon parrots. A mean plasma concentration of 3.5 μg/mL would be expected to provide analgesia in Hispaniolan Amazon parrots; however, individual variation may result in some birds having low plasma meloxicam concentrations after IV, IM, or oral administration. After oral administration, meloxicam concentration slowly reached the target plasma concentration, but that concentration was not sustained in most birds.

Authors: Shipley Eryn A. , Hogan Daniel F. , Fiakpui Nonya N. , Magee Aliya N. , III Henry W. Green , Sederquist Kimberly A. 
Published: February 2013

Abstract
Objective—To determine whether pimobendan has in vitro antithrombotic properties through inhibition of platelets in canine blood samples.
Animals—10 healthy adult dogs.
Procedures—Blood samples were collected from each dog into tubes containing hirudin or sodium citrate. Pimobendan was added to blood samples (final concentration, 0.0, 0.01, 0.1, 1.0, or 10.0μM) containing hirudin prior to undergoing collagen- and ADP-induced whole blood impedance aggregometry. Plasma thromboxane concentrations were measured after platelet aggregation. Pimobendan was also added to blood samples (0.0, 0.01, or 10.0μM) containing sodium citrate prior to thromboelastographic evaluation.
Results—Compared with findings for 0.0μM pimobendan, composite platelet aggregation (area under the curve [AUC]) and maximal platelet aggregation (aggregation units [AUs]) at 10.0μM pimobendan were significantly decreased for collagen-induced aggregation (AUC, 349.7 ± 58.4 vs 285.1 ± 72.2; maximal platelet aggregation, 196.2 ± 25.8 AUs vs 161.5 ± 38.0 AUs), and the AUC and velocity of aggregation at 10.0μM pimobendan were significantly decreased for ADP-induced aggregation (AUC, 268.5 ± 35.1 vs 213.4 ± 77.2; velocity of aggregation, 15.7 ± 2.9 AUs/min vs 11.8 ± 3.5 AUs/min). Pimobendan had no significant effect on plasma thromboxane concentration or thromboelastographic variables, regardless of concentration.
Conclusions and Clinical Relevance—In vitro, pimobendan had an antiplatelet effect in canine blood samples at a concentration 1,000-fold higher than that clinically achievable. These antiplatelet properties do not appear to contribute to the positive clinical profile of the drug in dogs. Pimobendan administration would not appear to confer a risk for bleeding and does not have to be avoided in dogs with thrombocytopenia or those concurrently receiving antiplatelet drugs.

Abstract
Objective—To determine 2-deoxy-2-fluoro (fluorine 18)-d-glucose (18FDG) biodistribution in the coelom of bald eagles (Haliaeetus leucocephalus).
Animals—8 healthy adult bald eagles.
Procedures—For each eagle, whole-body transmission noncontrast CT, 60-minute dynamic positron emission tomography (PET) of the celomic cavity (immediately after 18FDG injection), whole-body static PET 60 minutes after 18FDG injection, and whole-body contrast CT with iohexol were performed. After reconstruction, images were analyzed. Regions of interest were drawn over the ventricular myocardium, liver, spleen, proventriculus, cloaca, kidneys, and lungs on dynamic and static PET images. Standardized uptake values were calculated.
Results—Kidneys had the most intense 18FDG uptake, followed by cloaca and intestinal tract; liver activity was mild and slightly more intense than that of the spleen; proventricular activity was always present, whereas little to no activity was identified in the wall of the ventriculus. Activity in the myocardium was present in all birds but varied in intensity among birds. The lungs had no visibly discernible activity. Mean ± SD standardized uptake values calculated with representative regions of interest at 60 minutes were as follows: myocardium, 1. 6 ± 0.2 (transverse plane) and 1.3 ± 0.3 (sagittal plane); liver, 1.1 ± 0.1; spleen, 0.9 ± 0.1; proventriculus, 1.0 ± 0.1; cloaca, 4.4 ± 2.7; right kidney, 17.3 ± 1.0; left kidney, 17.6 ± 0.3; and right and left lungs (each), 0.3 ± 0.02.
Conclusions and Clinical Relevance—The study established the biodistribution of 18FDG in adult eagles, providing a baseline for clinical investigation and future research.
Ultrasonographic measurement of the pancreas and pancreatic duct in clinically normal dogs
Authors: Penninck Dominique G. , Zeyen Ulrich , Taeymans Olivier N. , Webster Cynthia R. 
Published: February 2013

Abstract
Objective—To obtain ultrasonographic reference values for the thickness of the pancreas and the diameter of the pancreatic duct in clinically normal dogs.
Animals—242 adult dogs with no clinical signs of gastrointestinal tract disease.
Procedures—The maximum pancreatic thickness and the diameter of the pancreatic duct were recorded ultrasonographically at the level of the left lobe, body, and right lobe of the pancreas.
Results—Mean ± SD pancreatic thickness measurements were as follows: left lobe, 6.5 ± 1.7 mm (n = 214); body, 6.3 ± 1.6 mm (155); and right lobe, 8.1 ± 1.8 mm (239). The mean pancreatic duct diameter was 0.6 ± 0.2 mm (n = 42) in the left lobe and 0.7 ± 0.2 mm (213) in the right lobe. The right pancreatic duct was visible in 213/242 (88.0%) dogs, and the left pancreatic duct was visible in 41/242 (16.9%) dogs. However, the body was visible in only 16/242 (6.6%) dogs. Pancreatic thickness and diameter of the pancreatic duct significantly increased with body weight in all lobes, but age was not correlated with the measurements.
Conclusions and Clinical Relevance—Ultrasonographic reference values for the pancreas and pancreatic duct of dogs were determined. Results of this study indicated that the pancreatic duct was visible, especially in the right lobe of the pancreas. These values may be useful for the assessment of pancreatic abnormalities, such as chronic pancreatitis and exocrine pancreatic insufficiency.
Comparison of acute infection of calves exposed to a high-virulence or low-virulence bovine viral diarrhea virus or a HoBi-like virus

Published: February 2013

Abstract
Objective—To compare acute infection of cattle exposed to a high-virulence (HV) bovine viral diarrhea virus (BVDV), low-virulence (LV) BVDV, or HoBi-like virus.
Animals—24 Holstein bull calves.
Procedures—Colostrum-deprived 2- to 4-week-old calves, free of BVDV antigen and antibodies, were allocated into 4 groups (6 calves/group). Calves in 3 groups were exposed to an LV BVDV strain (BVDV2-RS886), an HV BVDV strain (BVDV2–1373), or a HoBi-like virus (D32/00 HoBi), whereas calves in the fourth group were not exposed to a virus but were cohoused with calves exposed to the HoBi-like virus. Circulating WBCs, platelets, rectal temperature, and presence of virus in the blood were monitored.
Results—Infection of calves with any of the 3 viruses resulted in reduced numbers of circulating WBCs. Pyrexia was detected in all calves exposed to HV BVDV or LV BVDV but in only 3 of 6 calves exposed to the HoBi-like virus. Diarrhea was observed in 0 of 6 calves exposed to the HoBi-like virus, 2 of 6 calves exposed to the LV BVDV, and 6 of 6 calves exposed to the HV BVDV. The HoBi-like virus was transmitted from acutely infected calves to naïve cohorts.
Conclusions and Clinical Relevance—The HoBi-like viruses are an emerging species of pestivirus isolated from water buffalo and cattle in South America, Southeast Asia, and Europe but not from cattle in the United States. Understanding the clinical course of disease caused by HoBi-like pestiviruses will be important for the design of surveillance programs for the United States.
