Martintella

description: Martintella Artigas, 1996
Martinella Artigas & Papavero, 1995: 57 (preocc. Jousseaume, 1887 in Mollusca). Type –species, Asilus lestes Williston, 1901 (orig. des.).
Martintella Artigas, 1996: 75 (nom. nov. for Martinella Artigas & Papavero, 1995). Type –species, Asilus lestes Williston, 1901.
Comments. According to Artigas & Papavero (1995), Martintella has an apical tuft of long setae on the hypandrium, however the structure mentioned by the authors actually refers to sternite VIII. In Martintella lestes, as well as in M. aurata sp. nov. and M. fernandoi sp. nov., it is not possible to observe the hypandrium unless the terminalia is dissected, since the former is completely covered by sternite VIII (Figs. 3, 20, 32). It is worth mentioning that Scarbrough (2010) did not illustrate sternite VIII and the hypandrium of M. elliptica.
According to Fisher (2009), species of Martintella are similar to those of Wilcoxius Martin, 1975. The two genera are best distinguished by the size and shape of the aedeagal tubes. Wilcoxius has long, usually ‘S’-shaped tubes, and exposed aedeagus, while Martintella has short, slightly curved tubes, and the aedeagus is similar to those of Efferia Coquillett, 1893 and completely concealed. Martintella elliptica has a distinctive aedeagus where the apical 2/3 is reduced to a slender stalk that is concealed beneath the epandrium (Fig. 16). Thus M. elliptica somewhat extends the generic concept for Martintella mentioned above (based solely on the aedeagal structure of M. lestes, the type species), so its generic placement may need additional study.
Asilinae species are very similar and few external morphological characters are used in identification keys. Thus, dissection and study of the morphology of the structures of the male and female terminalia is required to ascertain species identification.

description: Among the urban societal burdens rolling noise generation from tire pavement interaction and urban waste stand apart. Many urban waste materials can be used in pavements with comparable mechanical performance. Noise-related pavement characteristics such as porosity, sound absorption and surface texture, were measured for semi-dense low noise pavement mixtures using urban waste materials namely: recycled concrete aggregates, crumb rubber, polyethylene terephthalate and polyethylene. The results show that the use of these materials is a viable sustainable option for low noise pavements, however that may affect the noise reduction properties. With values around 0.2 at 1000 Hz, the sound absorption of all the mixtures is relatively low and the use of mean profile depth (MPD) alone is not enough to characterize the noise reduction properties. Surface texture was altered in different degrees depending on the waste material used. The results presented can aid in policy pertaining to noise abatement and waste reduction.
A Literature Review on Burnout Within the Asian Demographic

description: Gaining insight into burnout and its fundamental causes is essential for universities and corporations seeking to enhance support for students and employees. A significant gap exists in our comprehension of burnout within the Asian-American community, particularly within educational and workplace environments. To bridge this gap, we conducted a comprehensive literature review to uncover shared patterns in the characterization of burnout and its origins within the Asian population, both in the USA and abroad. Burnout is a multifaceted issue that could be influenced by various factors, including biological, psychological, and sociological factors. These influences can fluctuate among different populations and contexts. Surveys such as the Maslach Burnout Inventory, Copenhagen Burnout Inventory, and Oldenburg Burnout Inventory share a common element: exhaustion, which, in the context of burnout, signifies feelings of being drained, unable to cope, fatigued, and lacking energy. Our research explores potential strategies to alleviate burnout within this demographic, considering biological, psychological, socioeconomic, and cultural aspects. We suggest that universities can play a pivotal role in supporting Asian American students, contributing to the prevention of and recovery from burnout by drawing from practical approaches employed in higher education and workplace settings.

description: Using data from the Farm Accountancy Data Network (FADN) for the period 2010 to 2022, this article presents an analysis of the French farms income trends and their dispersion. The indicator used for this study is the family farm income per non-salaried agricultural work unit. First, the analysis is carried out for all production types combined. It highlights a high degree of inter-annual variability in the average income of French farmers, with a peak of €55,800 in 2022 and a low point of €21,300 in 2016 (for an average of €34,100 per year over the 2010-2022 period). A typological grid distinguishing 64 boxes is then proposed to demonstrate the influence of three key indicators on the level of income, namely “labor productivity”, “productive efficiency” and “the farm's ability to meet its financial commitments”. Secondly, the analysis is carried out according to production types. While taking into account the differences within each one, this work shows that the average income generated by farms specializing in ruminant production is, in a long-term approach, clearly lower than that obtained in other speculations such as field crops, viticulture or pork production. Finally, by combining the three indicators mentioned above, a method can be used to divide dairy and beef farms into eight “economic performance” classes.

description: Europe stands first in the world ranking of tourist destinations. Tourism is at the heart of a huge business ecosystem that contributes substantially to prosperity and job creation in all Member States of the European Union. The COVID-19 epidemic puts the EU tourism industry under unprecedented pressure. It has led to the suspension of most domestic and international travel, causing a significant reduction in revenue and creating liquidity problems for all tour operators. Both travellers and businesses face uncertain prospects. The goals of this research focused on the main directions: 1) to assess the main concerns for the tourism industry in Romania in the autumn of 2020 and 2) to identify immediate measures to support the Romanian tourism sector. A questionnaire was applied to acquire the viewpoints of the sixteen representatives of eleven prestigious hotels in the mountain region of Valea Prahovei in Romania. The outcomes show their considerations on lifting travel restrictions, restoring traveller confidence and rethinking the Romanian tourism sector for the future.

Comparison of adult physical activity levels in three Swiss alpine communities with varying access to motorized transportation

Subjects: Physical activity Mode of transport Settlement structure

description: Study objective: To compare physical activity levels of residents of three Swiss alpine communities with varying access to motorized transport and to investigate whether socio-demographic factors, the settlement structure or means of transport affect these levels. Methods: Between January and February 2004 a computer assisted telephone interview was conducted with 901 randomly selected adults aged 18 years or older living in three Swiss alpine communities. In particular, information on moderate and vigorous intensity physical activities and on transport behaviour was collected. Respondents were categorized as 'sufficiently active' or 'insufficiently active' according to self-reported physical activity. Main results: People living in community 1 without access to motorized traffic were significantly more likely to be sufficiently active (Sex- and age-adjusted prevalences of sufficient total physical activity, 43.9% 95% CI: 38.3%-49.8%) compared to individuals living in the other two communities (community 2: 35.9%, 95% CI: 30.6%-41.6%, community 3: 32.7%, 95% CI: 27.5%-38.3%). The differences were due to higher levels of moderate physical activities. Vigorous physical activity levels did not differ between the communities. Community differences were explained by passive means of transport to work and for leisure time activities. Conclusions: Although the environment encountered in the three alpine communities is generally conducive to physical activity the majority of the participants did not achieve recommended activity levels. Passive mode of transport to work and during leisure time was strongly associated with insufficient total physical activity. Walking and cycling for transportation is thus a promising approach to promote health enhancing physical activity.

Representations Of Queer Puerto Rican Identity in Documentary Film
Creators: name: T. Webster, Isobel
Publisher: name: University of Leicester
Year: 2024

description: This thesis examines a corpus of largely underexplored queer Puerto Rican documentary films, seeking to understand why this medium is a common tool for telling the stories of queer puertorriqueños, and examining how their identities are represented through such films. The analyses presented are underpinned by an interdisciplinary analytical approach, heavily rooted in Queer Studies, Gender Studies and Puerto Rican Studies, and also informed by an intersectional approach to understanding identity, how it is represented in this film genre, and why certain cinematographic approaches are used in the conveying of these identities and their stories. I develop my discussion through four thematically-organised chapters: the first looks at the theme of "Time" via Elizabeth Freeman's theory of chrononormativity, and with a focus on principal subjects from three diverse films: Venus Xtravaganza in Jenni Livingstone’s Paris is Burning; Desmond Napoles in Breno Moreira’s Desmond is Amazing; and Walter Mercado in Kareem Tabsch and Cristina Costantini’s Mucho Mucho Amor. Chapter 2 confronts the theme of “Death”, looking specifically at the impact of the AIDS epidemic on queer Puerto Rican communities, and how that is represented in two key films: AIDS in the barrio (Francis Negrón and Peter Biella, 1989) and Memories of a Penitent Heart (Cecilia Aldarondo, 2016). I first explore how religion is presented in these works, before discussing representations of non-normative forms of grief, and documentary as act of mourning and legacy-making. Chapter 3 focuses on "Family" in Brincando el charco (Frances Negrón-Muntaner, 1994) and I Am the Queen (Josue Pellot and Henrique Cirne-Lima, 2011) to explore representations of culturally-grounded concepts/versions of the concepts of familismo, compulsory kinship, and "Chosen Family". My final chapter seeks to understand why many of these documentaries represent “Performance” as being such a pertinent element of the queer Puerto Rican experience. I achieve this through a discussion of what purposes we can see performance to have in these documentaries, and how performance can help to build and nurture community, remedy trauma, reclaim power and explore gender identity.

Subjects: Startups Crowdfunding Pitch Machinelearning Neural network Natural language processing

description: This paper introduces a neural network and natural language processing approach to predict the outcome of crowdfunding startup pitches using text, speech, and video metadata in 20,188 crowdfunding campaigns. Our study emphasizes the need to understand crowdfunding from an investor’s perspective. Linguistic styles in crowdfunding campaigns that aim to trigger excitement or are aimed at inclusiveness are better predictors of campaign success than firm-level determinants. At the contrary, higher uncertainty perceptions about the state of product development may substantially reduce evaluations of new products and reduce purchasing intentions among potential funders. Our findings emphasize that positive psychological language is salient in environments where objective information is scarce and where investment preferences are taste based. Employing enthusiastic language or showing the product in action may capture an individual’s attention. Using all technology and design-related crowdfunding campaigns launched on Kickstarter, our study underscores the need to align potential consumers’ expectations with the visualization and presentation of the crowdfunding campaign.

description: The market demand for herbal dietary supplements is rapidly growing and such products are becoming more common and accessible to consumers. However, the knowledge about their safety remains incomplete. Herbal dietary supplements are one of the food groups that can contribute significantly to human health concerns arising from chronic exposure to pyrrolizidine alkaloids and mycotoxins. This study aimed to simultaneously determine 79 natural contaminants, including mycotoxins, as well as pyrrolizidine and tropane alkaloids in herbal dietary supplements in one analytical run. Exposure assessment and human health risks were assessed for all compounds included in this study. The total concentration of naturally occurring contaminants in herbal dietary supplements reached 5.3 mg kg−1 and the most frequently detected mycotoxins were tentoxin and alternariol monomethyl ether. The latter was detected with the highest frequency, reaching concentrations up to 2.5 mg kg−1. The obtained results indicate a potential risk to public health related to herbal dietary supplement consumption.

description: Während die Schweizer Forstbetriebe seit den 1990er-Jahren im Durchschnitt Verluste in der Waldbewirtschaf- tung ausweisen, erzielen die deutschen und österreichischen Forstbetriebe mehrheitlich Gewinne. Der wich- tigste Grund für die negativen Betriebsergebnisse in der Schweiz sind die hohen Produktionskosten, insbeson- dere in der Holzernte. Zur Identifizierung neuer Lösungswege zur Wiederherstellung der ökonomischen Nachhaltigkeit in der Schweizer Waldwirtschaft und allgemein zur Steigerung der wirtschaftlichen Leistungsfä- higkeit der Forstbetriebe in der DACH-Region bietet sich der methodische Ansatz des Benchmarkings an. Durch länderübergreifende Vergleiche der besten Forstbetriebe können neue Lösungsansätze identifiziert, an die ei- genen Belange angepasst und umgesetzt werden. Die Methode ermöglicht es, die wirtschaftliche Leistungsfä- higkeit der Forstbetriebe vor dem Hintergrund der jeweiligen Umweltbedingungen, der Stakeholder, der Be- schaffungs- und Absatzmärkte sowie der Betriebsbedingungen detailliert zu analysieren, zu vergleichen und Erfolgsfaktoren zu identifizieren. Der Hauptfokus der Benchmarking-Methode richtet sich auf die Holzernte, die wichtigste Kostenstelle der Forstbetriebe. Benchmarking als Managementinstrument für die Forstwirtschaft scheint vielversprechend, da keine unmittelbare Konkurrenz zwischen den Forstbetrieben besteht und der of- fene Informationsaustausch dadurch begünstigt wird. Aufgrund der mit dem Klimawandel einhergehenden stei- genden Kosten zur Bewältigung von Störungen wie Sturm, Borkenkäfer oder Trockenheit, als auch der mögli- cherweise notwendigen Investitionen zur Anpassung der Wälder an den Klimawandel dürfte die Suche nach optimalen und effizienten Bewirtschaftungskonzepten und -prozessen weiter an Bedeutung gewinnen. Bench- marking könnte hier einen wertvollen Beitrag zur Identifizierung zukunftsfähiger und ökonomisch nachhaltiger Waldbewirtschaftungskonzepte leisten.

Subjects: Structural assessment methods Moisture content monitoring Large cross sections Service class Timber bridges

description: Timber road bridges are high performing structures and built worldwide since centuries. Modern timber bridges are designed for operational life cycle of 80 to 100 years. Reliable design and proper planning fundamentals, as well as the right choice of assessment method and monitoring systems, support the planning process and maintenance. The electrical resistance measurement method has proven to be suitable for the moisture content monitoring of timber bridges. The long-term monitoring of moisture content of structural components enables to react to discrepancies at an early stage of possible damage. The monitoring results of six timber bridges showed that the wood moisture content in the load bearing cross sections under regular ambient climates was between 12 M% - 22 M%, i.e. continuously below the range for fungi decay. Numerical methods were used to estimate the dependency of moisture content over the cross section on the yearly climate loads.

description: This study aimed to estimate the dietary exposure towards mycotoxins of residents in Gansu province, China, from 2014–2020 through surveillance data on mycotoxins in grains and grain products. Fumonisin B1 (FB1), Deoxynivalenol (DON), 3- and 15-Acetyl-deoxynivalenol (3-ADON and 15-ADON), Tentoxin (TEN), Tenuazonic acid (TeA) and Zearalenone (ZEN) in 863 grains and grain products were detected by HPLC-MS and UPLC-MS. DON was the most detected mycotoxin of all samples. For women, the average dietary exposure to DON was 1.49 μg/kg bw/day, with 55.8% of the individuals eating dried noodles exceeding tolerable daily intake. The hazard quotient values were 1.24–12.60, so greater than 1 for DON at the average, 90th percentile, 95th percentile, and maximum levels: 44.6% of the HQ values for men and 45.7% for women were greater than 1.

description: Evaluation of the test performance of the Target enhanced whole-genome sequencing (TE-WGS) assay for comprehensive oncology genomic profiling. The analytical validation of the assay included sensitivity and specificity for single nucleotide variants (SNVs), insertions/deletions (indels), and structural variants (SVs), revealing a revealed a sensitivity of 99.8% for SNVs and 99.2% for indels. The positive predictive value (PPV) was 99.3% SNVs and 98.7% indels. Clinical validation was benchmarked against established orthogonal methods and demonstrated high concordance with reference methods. TE-WGS provides insights beyond targeted panels by comprehensive analysis of key biomarkers and the entire genome encompassing both germline and somatic findings.
