Verbal Leases: What Happens If Someone Dies?

At a recent farmland leasing workshop, the question was raised, “I am a landlord with a handshake lease agreement. What happens if I die?” At the time, I gave the simple answer of “the new owners of the land will be subject to the lease.” Although this is technically correct, the situation is more nuanced than it appears. Depending on how the land is owned and passed on, there may be a period of uncertainty regarding who is responsible for the lease after the landowner’s death. Handshake, oral, or verbal lease agreements remain common for leasing agricultural land in Nebraska. When the terms of the lease are not negotiated or written, Nebraska State Statute provides provisions for various scenarios. In the case that the landlord dies during the term of a verbal lease agreement – and no additional verbal provisions related to this scenario were discussed and agreed to – the answer will depend on how the land is owned and passed on.

What Really Works to Improve Learning in Developing Countries? An Analysis of Divergent Findings in Systematic Reviews

Over the course of just two years, at least six reviews have examined interventions that seek to improve learning outcomes in developing countries. Although the reviews ostensibly have the same objective, they reach sometimes starkly different conclusions. The first objective of this paper is to identify why reviews diverge in their conclusions and how future reviews can be more effective. The second objective is to identify areas of overlap in the recommendations of existing reviews of what works to improve learning. This paper demonstrates that divergence in the recommendations of learning reviews is largely driven by differences in the samples of research incorporated in each review. Of 229 studies with student learning results, the most inclusive review incorporates less than half of the total studies. Across the reviews, two classes of programs are recommended with some consistency. Pedagogical interventions that tailor teaching to student learning levels—either teacher-led or facilitated by adaptive learning software—are effective at improving student test scores, as are individualized, repeated teacher training interventions often associated with a specific task or tool. Future reviews will be most useful if they combine narrative review with meta-analysis, conduct more exhaustive searches, and maintain low aggregation of intervention categories.

The permeation of loneliness into the workplace: An examination of robustness and persistence over time

Abstract The experience of loneliness has become ubiquitous in society today. However, despite the prevalence and considerable effects of loneliness, research on how this societal issue relates to the workplace remains limited. To address this shortcoming, we propose that loneliness is a permeating force that has a robust and persistent negative effect on employees' job satisfaction. We test our proposition using a nationally representative longitudinal sample of 627 Dutch employees surveyed each year between 2016 and 2018. Results of latent growth modeling indicate that loneliness is negatively related to job satisfaction, offering support for loneliness as a permeating force. Further, the effect of loneliness on job satisfaction remains significant despite controlling for well‐established predictors of job satisfaction found in the Jobs‐Demand Resource model (i.e., robustness) and has a significant influence on the trajectory of employees' job satisfaction over several years (i.e., persistence). On the basis of these results, we make the theoretical contribution of proposing that loneliness is a permeating force that infiltrates individuals' experiences at work. We further argue that the ramifications of loneliness on employees, and subsequently the organizations that employ them, are likely far more significant, sustained, and irrespective of work characteristics than previously understood.

Technoeconomic Mixed Integer Nonlinear Programming (MINLP) optimization for design of Liquid‐Liquid Extraction (LLE) cascades in continuous pharmaceutical manufacturing of atropine

Abstract Continuous Pharmaceutical Manufacturing (CPM) offers operational and economic benefits over the currently dominant methods implemented by industry. The demonstrated continuous flow synthesis of atropine facilitates modeling and optimization of its upstream continuous manufacturing. This study implements MINLP optimization of a continuous Liquid‐Liquid Extraction (LLE) flowsheet superstructure for total cost minimization of an upstream atropine CPM plant. The steady‐state process model considers reactor design from regressed kinetic parameters including investigation of maximum allowable PFR reactor dimensions to maximize the benefits of API flow synthesis. Continuous LLE modeling considers solute partitioning between phases, UNIFAC‐modeled liquid–liquid equilibria and mass transfer correlations for LLE design. Optimal LLE design configurations from the considered superstructure require fresh solvent added to the first vessel in co‐current flow in addition to the countercurrent flow in the cascade. Optimization results indicate toluene as the best solvent choice, with total costs of 3.944 × 10 6 GBP for a plant capacity of 10 3 kg API year −1 .

Freakoncology: Is there an optimistic denial in the ipilimumab publications?

e20122 Background: optimism in oncologists is essential but excess optimism leads us to deny reality. To study this phenomenon in scientific publications we searched for "Ipilimumab" in PubMed. Methods: The terms "Ipilimumab in human" were searched in PubMed until November 4, 2014. Two independent researchers categorized the title and abstracts as: Positive (Pos) (focus on benefit); Negative (Neg) (focus on toxicity) or Neutral (Neu) (mentioning both benefits and toxicity). All categories were then compared with respect to the type of publication: a) oncological vs. non-oncological, b) international vs. national, c) free full text yes or no, d) date of publication prior to or after the pivotal phase III trial (August 2010), e) value of impact factor of publications according the Journal Citation Reports. Results: 533 publications fulfilled the inclusion criteria. Rating: Pos 286 (54%), Neg 108 (20%), Neu139 (24%) Only seven publications (1%) associated with three phase III trials were identified. The table below shows the studied variables. Conclusions: 1) Oncological publications are frequently positive, reflecting the "optimistic" view of authors, editors and publishers. 2) Many severe toxicities reports are only published in non-oncological journals. We ignore the reasons for such findings if we discard any conflicts of interest 3) A single phase III study published in a high impact journal greatly influenced the tone of subsequent publications and promoted the utilization of this high cost medication.

A motivational model of employee attachment to an organization

Organizations are concerned with attracting employees who will both be highly engaged and want to stay with the organization. This requires ensuring that those who are attracted to working in an organization have their needs met, both in the organization and in the community in which the organization operates. Integrating job embeddedness theory, self-determination theory, and the tripartite model of commitment, a motivational model of the process of attachment to organizations is proposed. Suggestions for empirically testing this model, and for building human resource management practices that would foster organizational attachment, are discussed.

SH1147919.09FU

UNITE provides a unified way for delimiting, identifying, communicating, and working with DNA-based Species Hypotheses (SH). All fungal ITS sequences in the international nucleotide sequence databases are clustered to approximately the species level by applying a set of dynamic distance values (<0.5 - 3.0%). All species hypotheses are given a unique, stable name in the form of a DOI, and their taxonomic and ecological annotations are verified through distributed, web-based third-party annotation efforts. SHs are connected to a taxon name and its classification as far as possible (phylum, class, order, etc.) by taking into account identifications for all sequences in the SH. An automatically or manually designated sequence is chosen to represent each such SH. These sequences are released (https://unite.ut.ee/repository.php) for use by the scientific community in, for example, local sequence similarity searches and next-generation sequencing analysis pipelines. The system and the data are updated automatically as the number of public fungal ITS sequences grows.

Notice to Readers: Update to Reporting of Pneumonia and Influenza Mortality

The current issue of MMWR (week 39) will be the last to include data from the 122 Cities Mortality Reporting System (122 CMRS) in Notifiable Disease and Mortality Tables, Table III ("Deaths in 122 cities" [http://www.cdc.gov/mmwr/volumes/65/wr/mm6539md.htm?s_cid=mm6539md_w#table-17]). Beginning in the publication for the week ending October 8, 2016 (week 40), data from the National Center for Health Statistics (NCHS) Mortality Surveillance System will replace the information reported in Table III, and the 122 Cities Mortality Reporting System (122 CMRS) will be retired. The NCHS Mortality Surveillance System provides improvements in the data, including reports by the week of death and a consistent pneumonia and influenza (P&I) case definition across all sites. These improvements, along with recent and continuing increases in the timeliness of death certificate data, have led CDC to update the P&I mortality surveillance platform from the 122 CMRS to the NCHS Mortality Surveillance System.

Parameter estimation of the fractional‐order Hammerstein–Wiener model using simplified refined instrumental variable fractional‐order continuous time

This study proposes a direct parameter estimation approach from observed input–output data of a stochastic single‐input–single‐output fractional‐order continuous‐time Hammerstein–Wiener model by extending a well known iterative simplified refined instrumental variable method. The method is an extension of the simplified refined instrumental variable method developed for the linear fractional‐order continuous‐time system, denoted. The advantage of this novel extension, compared with published methods, is that the static output non‐linearity of the Wiener model part does not need to be invertible. The input and output static non‐linear functions are represented by a sum of the known basis functions. The proposed approach estimates the parameters of the linear fractional‐order continuous‐time subsystem and the input and output static non‐linear functions from the sampled input–output data by considering the system to be a multi‐input–single‐output linear fractional‐order continuous‐time model. These extra inputs represent the basis functions of the static input and output non‐linearity, where the output basis functions are simulated according to the previous estimates of the fractional‐order linear subsystem and the static input non‐linear function at every iteration. It is also possible to estimate the classical integer‐order model counterparts as a special case. Subsequently, the proposed extension to the simplified refined instrumental variable method is considered in the classical integer‐order continuous‐time Hammerstein–Wiener case. In this paper, a Monte Carlo simulation analysis is applied for demonstrating the performance of the proposed approach to estimate the parameters of a fractional‐order Hammerstein–Wiener output model.

Autologous Bone Marrow Transplantation for Acute Promyelocytic Leukemia in Second Remission: Prognostic Relevance of Pretransplant Minimal Residual Disease Assessment by Reverse-Transcription Polymerase Chain Reaction of the PML/RARα Fusion Gene

Abstract Reverse-transcription polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) of the PML/RARα fusion gene may predict relapse in acute promyelocytic leukemia (APL) patients in hematologic complete remission (CR). We have prospectively studied by RT-PCR 15 PML/RARα+ APL patients undergoing autologous bone marrow transplantation (ABMT) in second CR. The median time of first CR duration was 12 months (range, 6 to 40). All patients were reinduced with all-trans retinoic acid (ATRA), followed in 12 of 15 cases by mitoxantrone and Ara-C as consolidation. Fourteen patients received the BAVC (BCNU, Ara-C, m-AMSA, and VP-16) schedule as conditioning regimen. Unpurged marrows were collected immediately before conditioning treatment, analyzed by RT-PCR, and reinfused at median of 2 months (range, 2 to 7) from the achievement of second CR. Seven patients were PCR+ and eight PCR− for PML/RARα in their pretransplant marrows. All seven patients of the former group remained PCR+ during the follow-up and relapsed at a median time of 5 months (range, 2 to 9) from ABMT and 9 months (range, 4 to 14) from second CR. Of the eight PCR− patients, all remained PCR− during the follow-up controls. One patient relapsed at 10 months from ABMT, one died of a secondary (PML/RARα−) leukemia, and six are in hematologic and molecular remission at a median time of 28 months (range, 15 to 60) after ABMT and 32 months (range, 17 to 62) from second CR. Our results indicate that, in APL patients in second CR, ABMT with PML/RARα− marrow cells is likely to result in prolonged clinical and molecular remissions. Conversely, patients who test PCR+ after reinduction necessitate the use of alternative aggressive approaches, including unrelated allogeneic transplant.

On the spatio-temporal dynamics of interacting economic agents: Application of the modified method of simplest equation

In this study we discuss a mathematical model based on an advection–reaction–diffusion type PDEs. The model describes the spatio-temporal dynamics of populations of interacting economic agents. We extend the generalized reaction–diffusion model for spatio–temporal population dynamics proposed [N. K. Vitanov, I. P. Jordanov, Z. I. Dimitrova, Applied Mathematics and Computation 215, 2950–2964 (2009)] by adding new advection terms to the equations therein. The new advection terms describe the preferential movement (migration) of agent systems to favorable regions due to their economic interests. We assume that the speeds of agent migration are density dependent on specific economic mechanisms. We extract an analytical solution of the proposed advection–reaction–diffusion model for the case of one population of interacting agents which migrates in one spatial direction. The numerical tests of the obtained analytical solution demonstrate propagation of nonlinear density waves of a 'kink' type. We show that the propagation wave front can change in dependence on assumptions made about migration speeds of the agents.

Innovative design of a claw-wheel transformable robot

This research develops a claw-wheel transformable robot which could move on flat ground, stairways, or uneven terrain environment efficiently with a fairly simple structure. The robot can switch between claw mode and wheel mode by folding and unfolding the front body and rear body of the robot. The transformation could be made by controlling the motors on a pitch joint through the front claw and rear one in 90° angle shift after folding. The claw mode is mainly used to cross various uneven terrain or climb stairways. Yet, the wheel mode is for moving on flat ground. This robot can be adaptive to various riser and tread of stairs by appropriately controlling the transformation mechanism. Testing and verification have been done both in numerical simulation and the field test on the developed prototype. Compared with the existing hybrid robots, it has been proved to be well adaptive to various environments, structurally simple, easy to control and light in weight.

[A case report of Konno procedure for Ebstein's anomaly with subaortic stenosis after Hardy procedure and repair of coarctation and VSD].

A rare case of Ebstein's anomaly with coarctation and VSD is reported. Severe subaortic stenosis and LV dysfunction were progressed after PA banding and coarctation repair at four months old and Hardy procedure and VSD closure at five month old. Konno procedure was successfully performed with SJM 21A at one year and nine months old. Since coarctation type VSD may cause subaortic stenosis after its closure due to posteriorly deviated infundibular septum, anterosuperior margin of VSD would occasionally better to be eliminated at the time of VSD closure. This is the youngest one of Konno procedure to our knowledge.
