Allen’s Yellow Bat
Rhogeessa alleni
French: Rhogeessa d'Allen / German: Allen-Gelbfledermaus / Spanish: Rogesa de Allen
Taxonomy. Rhogeessa alleni Thomas, 1892,
“Santa Rosalia, near Autlan, Jalisco, Mexico.”
Previously separated in genus Baeodon, but this was later reduced to a subgenus of Rhogeessa, based on bacular, external and skull morphology. Recent molecular studies using mtDNA and nDNA grouped this species with R. gracilisin a clade sister to all other congeners, reinforcing some morphological evidence that suggests these two species may be basal within the genus; they may be better isolated in genus Baeodon. Monotypic.
Distribution. C & S Mexico (N Jalisco to Oaxaca).
Descriptive notes. Head-body ¢. 47-48 mm, tail 34-42 mm, ear 14-15 mm, hindfoot 6-7 mm, forearm 32-4-34- 2 mm; weight 5-8- 8 g. Dorsal fur is short and tricolored, with gray bases, buff center, and Dresden brown tips; venter bicolored, with gray bases and light ocherous-buftf tips. Ears blackish. Uropatagium almost naked. Skull large (greatest skull length more than 14- 5 mm), except in postorbital width; sagittal crest and helmet are present. I, is minute and unicuspid; C' has one or two small cusps on lingual cingulum; M? is reduced. Numerous collected specimens had tooth malformation, which could indicate the presence of a deleterious gene. Chromosomal complement has 2n = 30.
Habitat. Tropical deciduous forests, thorny forests, coniferous forests, and xeric shrubland. Bats were captured over a pond near a small cliff, over a temporary river in tropical xeric shrubland, in gallery forest surrounded by tropical xeric shrubland, and near willow trees next to a canyon surrounded by tropical xeric shrubland. Altitudinal range is 125-1990 m, and the species is frequently found above 1000 m.
Food and Feeding. Insectivorous.
Breeding. Post-lactating females were captured in February and September.
Activity patterns. Crepuscular and nocturnal. One was caught around midnight and another immediately before sunset.
Movements, Home range and Social organization. No information.
Status and Conservation. Classified as Least Concern on The IUCN Red List. Widely distributed and found in several protected areas, but generally rare. Major threats are habitat loss and ensuing fragmentation of distribution.

title: Spanische Bezüge bei E. T. A. Hoffmann
Creators: name: Berger-Vogel, Alexandra
Year: 1999

description: Es soll der Versuch unternommen werden, die Nachricht von den neuesten Schicksalen des Hundes Berganza und das Coloquio de los perros, das 1613 als vorletzte der insgesamt zwölf Novelas ejemplares Cervantes’ erschien und Hoffmann in der deutschen Ausgabe von Dietrich Wilhelm Soltau vorlag, auf ihre Gemeinsamkeiten und Unterschiede zu vergleichen. Der direkte Vergleich mit dem Coloquio trägt einerseits dazu bei, die Anspielungen und Verweise zu verstehen, die Hoffmann fortlaufend in seine Erzählung einstreut, und andererseits zu einem besseren Verständnis der literarischen Schaffensweise des Autors. Darüber hinaus sollte aber nicht vergessen werden, daß es sich bei Hoffmanns Text um ein eigenständiges Werk handelt, das auch ohne die Lektüre Cervantes’ als das zu verstehen ist, was es ist: eine ironisch-satirische, witzig-humorvolle Erzählung mit einem Hund als Helden, der sein Umfeld parodiert und kritisch betrachtet und sich überdies äußerst verständig in Sachen der Kunst erweist. Schwerpunkt der Untersuchung bildet Hoffmanns Bearbeitung des "Kolloquiums", die neben ihrem inhaltlichen und sprachlichen Bezug auf die spanische Vorlage auch auf ihre literarischen Mittel hin untersucht werden soll.

description: Previous research has shown that praise is an effective reinforcer; however, few researchers have evaluated whether qualitative differences in praise affect responding. The purpose of the current study was to compare the effects of neutral, enthusiastic, and no praise on the rate of matching-to-sample acquisition during discrete-trial training with adults diagnosed with autism and an intellectual disability. In addition, we evaluated preference for neutral, enthusiastic, and no praise. All three participants acquired responses slightly faster during the enthusiastic praise condition. Preference assessment results showed that one participant preferred enthusiastic praise, whereas the two other participants showed indiscriminate selections.

description: Pawpaw (Asimina triloba L.) roots, twigs, leaves, fruit, and seeds were analyzed for their nutritional compositions. Seeds exhibited significantly higher levels of crude protein, lipid, fiber, and dietary fiber than those of the other parts. Sucrose in fruit was 9321.24 mg%, which was the highest among the samples. The total essential amino acid to total amino acid ratio was highest in the leaves, and the leaves contained the highest amount of potassium. The calcium content ranged between 8.15-153.41 mg%. Oleic and linoleic acids in seeds were 5905.11 and 8045.56 mg%, respectively, which were the highest among the pawpaw parts. The highest amount of linolenic acid was measured in the leaves, and β-carotene, vitamin C, and vitamin E were also the most abundant in the leaves. These results suggest that every part of pawpaw is a good source of an important food item. Additionally, this study provides basic data for improving the sitological value of pawpaw.

Diversity of arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi in no-till and conventionally tilled vineyards

description: The use of a permanent vegetation cover or frequent tillage in vineyards may affect soil water budget, nutrient availability, soil compaction, soil erosion and soil microbe biodiversity, and through all these and other factors also yield and wine quality parameters. The abundance and diversity of arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi (AMF) might also be influenced, but so far effects on AMF by permanent vege- tation cover (= no-tillage systems) or repeated chiseling and rotary-tillaging have rarely been compared in vineyards. The objective of this on-farm study was to determine AMF species richness and diversity in two adjacent vineyards in Palatinate (SW Germany). In both vineyards, grown on fertile Luvisols, the var. “Pinot Gris” was grown for 39 years, but with different soil cultivation and different fertilization strategies. In one vineyard, soil was maintained periodically without vegetation by passing rotatory cultivator and chiseling between the grapevine rows (‘inter-rows’) several times per year, preferably during spring and summer and in dependency of rainfall and ‘weed’ growth, and fertilization was mainly by organic fertilizers in the last ten years before soil sampling. In the other vineyard, a permanent vegetation has been established since planting, dominated by Lolium perenne, and mineral fertilizers were exclusively applied. Despite of similar high nutrient availability in both soils, in particular of phosphorus, astonishing high AMF species richness and diversity were found in both vineyards. In the no-tillage inter-rows, 34 AMF species were found, with a species composition typically for Central European permanent grasslands (Shannon diversity index 2.45). In the tillage system 24 AMF species were found with a composition as known for extensively used, cultivated Central European croplands (diversity index 2.26). We conclude that above all soil cultivation has affected AMF diversity in these Central European vineyards, while the level and type of fertilization affected the AMF communities only on a minor level.

description: The report Adjusting to Higher Labor Costs in Selected U.S. Fresh Fruit and Vegetable Industries examines how U.S. producers of major labor-intensive fresh fruit and vegetables are addressing the rising costs of labor. Farm labor costs are increasing for several reasons, including fewer newly-arrived unauthorized workers, rising State minimum wages, and new requirements to pay overtime wages to some farm workers. Short-term options to meet the labor needs on farms include management changes, such as picking fields and orchards less often and introducing mechanical aids that increase worker productivity. Long-term options include the use of more labor-saving mechanization, additional H-2A guest workers, and reducing overall domestic production. Adjusting to Higher Labor Costs in Selected U.S. Fresh Fruit and Vegetable Industries provides an analysis of the ways in which producers are using different tools to address higher labor costs. This related report—Supplement to Adjusting to Higher Labor Costs in Selected U.S. Fruit and Vegetable Industries: Case Studies—analyzes adjustment options for four major fruit and three major vegetable and melon commodities.

description: OpenRiskNet (https://openrisknet.org/) is an EU funded infrastructure project with the main objective to develop an open e-infrastructure providing resources and services to a variety of industries requiring risk assessment, including chemicals, cosmetic ingredients, drugs and nanomaterials.

The OpenRiskNet approach is to work on different case studies to test and evaluate requirements to overcome the fragmentation of data and tools and to provide solutions improving the harmonization of data, usability and interoperability of application programming interfaces (APIs) and the deployment into virtual infrastructure. The cases present real-world settings such as systems biology approaches for grouping compounds, read-across applications using chemical and biological similarity, and identifying areas of concern based only on alternative methods approaches.

We discuss our progress on the OpenRiskNet goal of harmonizing data and metadata within APIs that can be added to already existing analysis and modeling services and data warehouses. We also demonstrate how these APIs can easily be used towards the generation of full risk assessment workflows either using scripting languages or workflow managers. Finally, we show the first approaches to make these APIs semantically rich by annotating data with human- and computer-readable data schemata.

OpenRiskNet has initiated the Associated Partners Programme strengthening the working ties between the OpenRiskNet members and other organizations within the scientific community.

Muscle contributions to balance control, propulsion and leg swing during healthy and post-stroke walking

description: Human walking requires complex muscle coordination to produce important biomechanical functions such as balance, forward propulsion and leg swing. For healthy individuals, these tasks are often accomplished effortlessly. However, for individuals post-stroke, balance, propulsion and leg swing can be compromised. Thus, the overall goal of this research was to understand how healthy individuals respond to altered balance control via mediolateral foot placement perturbations and how specific muscles contribute to propulsion and leg swing deficits in individuals post-stroke. Controlling mediolateral foot placement is critical to maintaining balance in the frontal plane, but can be difficult post-stroke. Thus, we investigated how healthy individuals maintain their balance after mediolateral foot placement perturbations to compare to individuals post-stroke. We found that participants responded to medial foot placement perturbations using lateral hip and ankle strategies and lateral foot placement perturbations using a lateral ankle strategy, but did not use a plantarflexion strategy following either perturbation. Modeling and simulation analyses further revealed changes in hip and trunk muscle contributions to foot placement, suggesting a coordinated response of the trunk and bilateral hip abductor muscles. On average, changes in muscle contributions to mediolateral ground reaction forces, torso power, and frontal plane external moments were small. These results highlight the responses of healthy individuals to altered balance control via foot placement perturbations. Individuals post-stroke often experience propulsion and knee flexion deficits, leading to slow walking speeds and stiff-knee gait. These deficits may have several underlying causes. Thus, modeling and simulation analyses of individuals post-stroke were used to identify muscle contributions to propulsion deficits, including excess braking from the vasti, plantarflexor braking, low plantarflexor output and reliance on compensatory mechanisms. Moreover, higher vasti contributions to braking in pre-swing predicted lower knee flexion. While the rectus femoris and iliopsoas did not directly contribute to lower knee flexion acceleration in pre-swing compared to contributions from the vasti, in some cases, the rectus femoris absorbed more power and the iliopsoas contributed less power to the paretic leg. These results highlight the heterogeneity of the post-stroke population and the need to identify individual causes of walking deficits to improve rehabilitation outcomes.
UNDERSTANDING THE ROLE OF CULTURALLY RELEVANT PEDAGOGY IN TEACHER EDUCATION PROGRAMS

description: Due to the history of systemic inequities in the United States, gaps in academic opportunities along racial lines have persisted and have pushed scholars and educators to find ways to combat these disparities in the education system. This push has led to the formation of asset-based pedagogies, which are teaching practices that enhance the learning outcomes of diverse students. Perhaps the most well studied asset-based practice today is culturally relevant pedagogy (CRP), which has been successful in helping to close these gaps. This research explores CRP in teacher education through the lens of the professors who teach in these programs. This qualitative study used in-depth, semi-structured interviews to examine how 12 professors from four different public universities understand and practice CRP, and how CRP is accepted within their respective colleges. Findings show that while CRP is embraced, there is still a need for more training to help better prepare many of the faculty members. The findings also indicate that the faculty of color have a more in-depth and comprehensive understanding of CRP and are thus better positioned to implement it in their programs. That finding, along with the persistence of whiteness that was found, shows a need for more faculty and students of color in general, and specifically more Black faculty and students. Ultimately, if these programs want to fulfill their missions of being dedicated to diversity, equity, social justice, and successfully implementing CRP, there is still more work that needs to be done.

title: Das "Mittelstück" im 'Wiener Werkel'
Creators: name: Wolfartsberger, Anita
Year: 2004

description: Im Jänner 1939 wurde in Wien, als Nachfolger des von den Nationalsozialisten geschlossenen Etablissements „Literatur am Naschmarkt", das „Wiener Werkel" gegründet, das sich als Kleinkunstbühne bis 1944 hielt, vor allem weil der Direktor, Adolf Müller-Reitzner, ein Parteigenosse war. Trotzdem zeigen viele der am „Wiener Werkel" aufgeführten Stücke ein erstaunliches Maß an satirischer Kritik an den Verhältnissen im nationalsozialistischen Deutschland, was im März 1941 dazu führte, dass der in Wien weilende Joseph Goebbels dem Direktor eine lange Strafpredigt hielt und mit dem KZ drohte. Im Mittelpunkt der Arbeit steht vor allem eine bestimmte, am Wiener Werkel gepflegte Dramenform − das „Mittelstück". Nach einer historischen und einer theoretischen Einführung in die Materie widmet sich der dritte und umfangreichste Teil der Arbeit einer Analyse der satirischen Kritik, die in den Mittelstücken geäußert wird.

description: Regulatory agencies in the United States serve a diverse population while overseeing the safety and efficacy of therapeutics and diagnostics. This task becomes particularly challenging in the context of genetic tests and genetically informed therapeutics, where product performance may depend on individual genetic variations. Historically, most genetic and pharmacogenetic studies have focused on populations of European genetic ancestry, leaving significant gaps in understanding for non-European ancestry groups. Growing literature indicates that genetic findings do not fully transfer across ancestries. Biobanks like All of Us (AoU), the Million Veteran Program (MVP), and the UK Biobank, which have accumulated substantial health, lifestyle, exposure, and genetic information from non-European ancestry populations, provide an opportunity to address these gaps. Notably, AoU and MVP are both designed to include diverse populations and provide sufficient data for large-scale analysis, particularly for African ancestry (AA) and Latino ancestry (LA) populations. AoU offers whole-genome sequencing (WGS) data for 50,969 AA and 47,371 LA participants, while MVP includes WGS data for 21,099 AA and 5,596 LA participants, enabling the discovery of new pharmacogenetic alleles. Advances in artificial intelligence will further characterize these alleles by predicting their phenotypic consequences, helping to close the gap in knowledge about pharmacogenetics in understudied populations.

description: We have carried out a deep survey of the M81 field in the 25-60 keV energy band based on long-term (2003-2023) INTEGRAL observations. A record sensitivity of 0.16 mCrab at a detection significance of 4 sigma has been achieved in the central part of the field owing to the long accumulated exposure (19.2 Ms). The total area of the survey is 1004 deg^2 at a sensitivity level better than 0.72 mCrab. We have produced a catalog of sources detected at a significance level higher than 4 sigma. It contains 51 objects most of which are active galactic nuclei (AGNs). The median redshift of the Seyfert galaxies in the catalog is z=0.0366. Six sources have not been detected previously in any of the X-ray surveys. According to the available indirect data, all of them and two more sources that have already been entered previously into the INTEGRAL survey catalogs can also be AGNs, including those with strong internal absorption.

description: This capacity questionnaire is an instrument developed by iDSI as a tool to assess local capacity to undertake Health Technology Assessment (HTA) within a given country context. The questionnaire consists of structured questions and a written proposal component.

The structured questions comprise four dimensions: technical capacity, applied HTA experience, institutional human resource management, and capacity-building requirements. We provide a suggested scoring system for the technical capacity and applied experience components. This can be used as a quantitative measure of institutional technical capacity and experience in conducting HTA. Responses to human resource management, capacity building requirements, and the HTA proposal are necessarily qualitative in nature, and should be considered against local criteria based on contextual requirements of those administering the questionnaire.

title: Experimental realization of a simple entangling optical gate for quantum computation
Creators: name: Prevedel, Robert
Year: 2005

description: Wir demonstrieren ein optisches, nicht-deterministisches CSIGN-Gatter für Quantencomputer. Das CSIGN-Gatter ist in der Lage ursprünglich nicht verschränkte Qubits zu verschränken und repräsentiert daher ein elementares und wichtiges Gatter für universelles quantencomputing. Die Wirkung des Gatters wurde mit Hilfe von Prozesstomographie vollständig charakterisiert und wir finden eine Prozessgüte von 0.84 +/- 0.01.
description: We present and demonstrate an all-optical, non-deterministic CSIGN-gate for quantum computation. The CSIGN-gate is capable of entangling previously unentangled qubits and therefore represents an elementary operation relevant for universal quantum computing. It can also be employed for the generation of novel multi-particle entangled states, among them the so-called cluster states. The operation of the quantum gate is completely characterized by performing quantum state and process tomography. Reconstructing the process matrix of the CSIGN-gate, we find an average gate fidelity of Favg = 0.84 +/- 0.01. The realized optical CSIGN-circuit is based on the two-photon scheme of References [14, 15], and since it requires only a single optical mode-matching condition, its construction is drasti- cally facilitated compared to previous schemes. This circuit indeed presents the simplest entangling optical gate realized to date. This thesis is written in a fully self-contained manner, introducing and establishing the required theoretical background and giving a full description of the experimental setup and procedure as well as a thorough discussion of the results and occurring problems. We propose the extension of the above scheme to generate a genuine 3-photon cluster state, which is equivalent to a Greenberger-Horne-Zeilinger-state (GHZ-state) [16], and give a short outlook on future experiments. In additional experiments the effects of temporal mode-mismatch has been studied. This was achieved with an adapted quantum teleportation experiment, showing that the fidelity of such a quantum communication protocol declines in a Gaussian fashion as a function of the temporal mode-mismatch. A simple theoretical model is developed that explains this behaviour, consistent with the experimental data.

Ethiopian Long-eared Bat
Plecotus balensis
French: Oreillard d'Ethiopie / German: Bale-Langohr / Spanish: Orejudo de Etiopia
Other common names: Bale Long-eared Bat, Ethiopian Big-eared Bat
Taxonomy. Plecotus balensis Kruskop & Lavrenchenko, 2000,
“Harenna Forest, Bale Mountains National Park, southern Ethiopia, 6°45’ N, 39°44’ E, 2760 m ASL.”
This species is monotypic.
Distribution. Ethiopia.
Descriptive notes. Head-body 45-50 mm, tail 47-55 mm, ear 37-40 mm, hindfoot 7-8 mm, forearm 36-42 mm; weight 6-5—8: 5 g. The Ethiopian Long-eared Bat is noted for its short snout and dark chestnut-brown fur without paler tips. It is similar to the Brown Long-eared Bat (P. auritus) but smaller, with more inflated and slightly larger or inflated tympanic bullae (under 4- 3 mm long), slenderer tooth row, and narrower rostrum. Wings dark, and ears dark brown or blackish brown. Muzzle fairly blunt, with small preorbital and rounded supraorbital glands. Baculum is Y-shaped. Braincase medium height and very broad; rostrum quite short and narrow. Chromosomal complement has 2n = 32.
Habitat. Restricted to highlands, in humid evergreen Afro-montane forests at elevations of 2000-3000 m. The few reports available indicate areas such as upper belts of Harenna Forest in Bale Mountains National Park, or Mount Aune Yosef. Also seen foraging in more open parts of forest or at edges of clearings.
Food and Feeding. Feeds on insects caught by perch-hunting and aerial-hawking.
Breeding. No information.
Activity patterns. No information.
Movements, Home range and Social organization. No information.
Status and Conservation. Classified as Data Deficient on The IUCN Red List. Known only from five localities and previously classified as Vulnerable, but the species is suspected to be more abundant and has been reclassified as Data Deficient. Old reports of similar species such as Christie’s Long-eared Bat (P. christii) may need reviewing to check for misidentifications. Very poorly known overall;likely to be affected by habitat loss due to timber extraction and agriculture expansion.

title: Typografie im interkulturellen Vergleich
Creators: name: Jesserer, Karen
Year: 2003

description: Diese Arbeit geht von der kommunikationssoziologischen Betrachtungsweise und der „Theorie vom translatorischen Handeln“ Justa Holz-Mänttäris aus. Diese betont, dass alle am Translationsprozess Beteiligten Einfluss auf die Übersetzung ausüben. Demnach kann eine „gute“ Übersetzung (in jenem Sinne, als eine reibungslose Kommunikation ohne kulturell oder anders bedingte Barrieren stattfinden kann) nur unter der Voraussetzung gelingen, dass jeder einzelne Arbeitsschritt mit einem Maximum an adäquat eingesetzten Kompetenzen von (Kultur-)Experten erledigt wird. Nach einem Überblick über die Entwicklung der Translationswissenschaft von der pragmatischen Wende in den 80er Jahren bis heute, wird eine Einführung in die grundlegenden Begriffe der Typografie gegeben und im Anschluß diskutiert, inwieweit typografische Kenntnisse die Kompetenzen der ÜbersetzerIn sinnvoll ergänzen bzw. abrunden können. Da sich der empirische Teil der Arbeit mit Werbetypografie beschäftigt, wird auch ein kurzer Überblick über Wirtschaftswerbung im interkulturellen Kontext und die dabei relevanten Übersetzungsstrategien gegeben. Im empirischen Teil werden schließlich Automobilwerbeprospekte von je drei deutschen (BMW, Mercedes, VW) und drei französischen (Citroën, Peugeot, Renault) Autoherstellern zunächst als eigenständiges Werbemittel auf ihre typografische, sprachliche und werbliche Gestaltung hin untersucht, danach werden die Prospekte miteinander verglichen und es werden kulturspezifische Gewohnheiten und Präferenzen in der Gestaltung von Autoprospekten aufgezeigt.

Turkmen Long-eared Bat
Plecotus turkmenicus
French: Oreillard turkmene / German: Turkmenistan-Langohr / Spanish: Orejudo de Turkmenistan
Other common names: Turkmenian Long-eared Bat
Taxonomy. Plecotus austriacus turkmenicus Strelkov, 1988,
Kurgankyr, Turkmenistan.
Previously considered a race of P. austriacus, but full species status is supported by genetic analyses. Monotypic.
Distribution. SW Kazakhstan, W Uzbekistan, and W Turkmenistan; possibly Mongolia.
Descriptive notes. Head-body ¢. 55 mm, tail ¢. 50 mm, hindfoot ¢. 10 mm, forearm c. 45 mm; weight c. 9 g. One of the largest Plecotus, it is clearly distinguished from congeners by rim of naked whitish skin on posterior part of dorsum. Dorsal fur (8:8-13- 2 mm long) is bright and pale, with distinctively tricolored hairs (from dark gray to white to gray or brownish); ventral fur (7-1-10- 1 mm long) bicolored, with dark bases and whitish or grayish tips. As in other long-eared bats, pelage is not dense, face is almost naked, and forehead is covered with short sparse fur; likewise, uropatagium is discreetly covered by tiny hairs, or naked. Face white, contrasting with broad, short, brown snout. Tragus ¢.22- 2 mm long, not pigmented, very large, and translucent. All membranes are semi-transparent and weakly pigmented gray. Thumbs long; toes covered with tiny white hairs; claws remarkably long and strongly curved as in the Brown Long-eared Bat (P. auritus). Braincase relatively large, very distinct from other similar species; rostrum robust; condylo-basal length c. 17 mm; zygomatic bone seems robust; and bullae tend to be large. Molars are broad; C' is large; and I’ and premolars are minute.
Habitat. Dry areas: temperate desert and semi-desert.
Food and Feeding. Feeds mainly on medium-sized Noctuidae or Geometridae (Lepidoptera), but also takes small Lepidoptera and some insects with slightly harder exoskeletons (Heteroptera, Auchenorrhyncha), although it positively selects softer insects. It is an aerial-hawker, hunting in low to medium-high vegetation. It also captures other insects such as Neuroptera (Hemerobiidae, Chrysopidae) and Heteroptera by gleaning.
Breeding. No information.
Activity patterns. Roosts in caves and wells.
Movements, Home range and Social organization. No information.
Status and Conservation. Not assessed on The IUCN Red List. No information is available about population trends or status, in part due to the recent taxonomic changes.
