Antecedents of project managers' voice behavior: The moderating effect of organization based self esteem and affective organizational commitment

Theory and research stress that employee voice behavior (VB; discretionary communication of ideas, suggestions, or concerns with the intent to improve organizational functioning) positively influences decision making, improvement, and innovation. However, the VB construct has rarely been studied in the specific context of project management. Using a sample of 618 project managers and 154 project portfolio coordinators nested in 154 firms, the main purpose of this study was to analyze a moderated model, in which specific contextual factors interact with individual level variables to predict project managers' VB. Consistent with our hypotheses derived from self consistency theory, moderated hierarchical regression analysis revealed that idea encouragement, career perspectives, qualification opportunities, and peer collaboration related more positively to VB for project managers with a high level of organization based self esteem. For project managers high in affective organizational commitment, we found stronger positive relationships of peer collaboration and idea encouragement with project managers' VB.
Relating the mechanics of the primary plant cell wall to morphogenesis.
Venue: Journal of experimental botany

Regulation of the mechanical properties of the cell wall is a key parameter used by plants to control the growth behavior of individual cells and tissues. Modulation of the mechanical properties occurs through the control of the biochemical composition and the degree and nature of interlinking between cell wall polysaccharides. Preferentially oriented cellulose microfibrils restrict cellular expansive growth, but recent evidence suggests that this may not be the trigger for anisotropic growth. Instead, non uniform softening through the modulation of pectin chemistry may be an initial step that precedes stress induced stiffening of the wall through cellulose. Here we briefly review the major cell wall polysaccharides and their implication for plant cell wall mechanics that need to be considered in order to study the growth behavior of the primary plant cell wall.
Religion, modernity and politics: colonial education and the Australian mission in Korea, 1910 1941

The work of the Australian mission in the southern part of Korea during the first half of the twentieth century has been a relatively undeveloped subject in scholarly research. By focusing on the educational work of the mission between 1910 and 1941, this article provides an overview of how the missionaries interacted with the Japanese colonial authority and the Korean people. The purpose of this article is twofold. First, it traces how the missionary work in South Gyeongsang Province evolved in terms of education. Second, it identifies the process by which mission education and Japanese educational policy interacted, focusing on the two secondary schools of the mission: the D.M. Lyall Memorial School and the J.B. Harper Memorial School. Mission education during this period had three different implications: religion, modernity and politics. For the missionaries, education was intended to spread Christianity; for the Koreans, the mission schools provided opportunities for modern learning; for the Japanese authorities, schooling was considered a vehicle for political socialisation. The educational work of the Australian mission shows how the agendas of the missionaries, the Koreans and the Japanese colonial authority intersected and conflicted. Although the Australian mission comprised a smaller group of missionaries who worked exclusively in the southern part of the country, their records are significant. This case study provides a basis for a further comparative analysis within the larger context of colonial Korea.
Do the anterior and lateral thalamic nuclei make distinct contributions to spatial representation and memory?
Venue: Neurobiology of Learning and Memory

The anterior and lateral thalamus has long been considered to play an important role in spatial and mnemonic cognitive functions; however, it remains unclear whether each region makes a unique contribution to spatial information processing. We begin by reviewing evidence from anatomical studies and electrophysiological recordings which suggest that at least one of the functions of the anterior thalamus is to guide spatial orientation in relation to a global or distal spatial framework, while the lateral thalamus serves to guide behavior in relation to a local or proximal framework. We conclude by reviewing experimental work using targeted manipulations (lesion or neuronal silencing) of thalamic nuclei during spatial behavior and single unit recordings from neuronal representations of space. Our summary of this literature suggests that although the evidence strongly supports a working model of spatial information processing involving the anterior thalamus, research regarding the role of the lateral thalamus is limited and requires further attention. We therefore identify a number of major gaps in this research and suggest avenues of future study that could potentially solidify our understanding of the relative roles of anterior and lateral thalamic regions in spatial representation and memory.

Does financial inclusion affect monetary policy in SAARC countries?

Alike the role of heart for human body, finance is the focal point of an economy, whereas savings and investment are its tubes and vessels. Hence, a solid financial system is a fundamental character of an enduring economy. The frozen financial system endures longer if its foundation is concrete and subsists in the people of grass root level. They are those, who live in villages and small towns, earn meager income, work in primary sector, spend more on food, and have lesser social securities. In this setting, the process of bringing these people into the main stream of financial activities is called financial inclusion. This study describes the impact of financial inclusion on monetary policy of South Asian Association for Regional Cooperation (SAARC) countries from 2004 2013. The study uses principal component analysis (PCA) to construct a Financial Inclusion Index that serves as a proxy variable for the accessibility of financial inclusion in the SAARC countries. Adding to it, three different models like FEM, REM, and Panel corrected standard errors are used for the analysis. In this study, an empirical result of generalized least square(GLS) estimation shows that financial inclusion, exchange rate, and interest rate are negatively associated with inflation in SAARC countries.
Reusing and Unifying Background Knowledge for Internet of Things with LOV4IoT
Venue: 2016 IEEE 4th International Conference on Future Internet of Things and Cloud (FiCloud)

Ontology based applications are becoming more and more popular and are usually domain specific (e.g. eHealth or domotic) Designing ontologies and semantic based applications manually is tedious and cumbersome for non technical expert or semantic web beginners. Internet of Things (IoT) is a new field aiming to connect the physical world surrounded by devices such as sensors to the web to automatically interact with them and build innovative applications. The main challenges are to automate as much as possible the tasks of: (1) reusing the background knowledge previously designed by domain experts, (2) facilitating the tasks of IoT developers willing to integrate semantic web technologies into their applications, and (3) designing interoperable semantic based IoT applications. Stemming from Linked Open Data and Linked Open Vocabularies, we designed Linked Open Vocabularies for Internet of Things (LOV4IoT) a catalogue of ontologies/datasets/rules relevant for IoT available online. LOV4IoT has been extended with more domains and ontology based projects, a semantic based dataset and a bot to enhance automation, and web services. Moreover, we demonstrate several use cases of the LOV4IoT dataset: (1) building Semantic Web of Things applications, (2) extracting frequent terms used in existing ontologies, and (3) stakeholders who can exploit, reuse and combine domain ontologies. Finally, we evaluated this dataset with users who exploit this dataset for their own purposes.
Size Controlled Synthesis of Sub 10 nanometer Citrate Stabilized Gold Nanoparticles and Related Optical Properties.

Highly monodisperse, biocompatible and functionalizable sub 10 nm citrate stabilized gold nanoparticles (Au NPs) have been synthesized following a kinetically controlled seeded growth strategy. The use of traces of tannic acid together with an excess of sodium citrate during nucleation is fundamental in the formation of a high number (7 x 1013 NPs/mL) of small ~3.5 nm Au seeds with a very narrow distribution. A homogeneous nanometric growth of these seeds is then achieved by adjusting the reaction parameters: pH, temperature, sodium citrate concentration and gold precursor to seed ratio. We use this method to produce Au NPs with a precise control over their sizes between 3.5 and 10 nm and a versatile surface chemistry allowing studying the size dependent optical properties in this transition size regime lying between clusters and nanoparticles. Interestingly, an inflection point is observed for Au NPs smaller than 8 nm in which the sensitivity of the localized surface plasmon resonance (LSPR) peak positio.
ASSESSMENT OF HEALTH CARE PROFESSIONALS KNOWLEDGE, ATTITUDE AND PRACTICE TOWARDS INFECTION CONTROL IN LABOUR ROOM

Women in labour rooms are exposed to invasive devices and procedures that can cause significant infection risk. Although the period of contact is generally short, but the infection risk associated with care in labour rooms is probably quite high. The purpose of the study was to assess health care workers knowledge, attitude and practice towards infection control in labour room at Chaudhary Braham Prakash Ayurvedic Charak Sansathan New Delhi. A Questionnaire was prepared to assess the knowledge, attitude and practice of health care workers towards infection control in labour room. After a month of data collection I have found that only 50.02% of the health care professionals were adhered to infection control measures in labour room. Out of that nursing staff have the highest degree of knowledge and practice of infection control precautions. The good infection control practice is acquired by experience over years of work.
Broad band spectral analysis of the accreting millisecond X ray pulsar SAX J1748.9 2021

We analyzed a 115 ks XMM Newton observation and the stacking of 8 days of INTEGRAL observations, taken during the raise of the 2015 outburst of the accreting millisecond X ray pulsar SAX J1748.9 2021. The source showed numerous type I burst episodes during the XMM Newton observation, and for this reason we studied separately the persistent and burst epochs. We described the persistent emission with a combination of two soft thermal components, a cold thermal Comptonization component ~2 keV) and an additional hard X ray emission described by a power law (photon index ~2.3) The continuum components can be associated with an accretion disc, the neutron star (NS) surface and a thermal Comptonization emission coming out of an optically thick plasma region, while the origin of the high energy tail is still under debate. In addition, a number of broad ~0.1 0.4 keV) emission features likely associated to reflection processes have been observed in the XMM Newton data. The estimated 1.0 50 keV unabsorbed luminosity of the source is ~5x10^37 erg/s, about 25% of the Eddington limit assuming a 1.4 solar mass NS. We suggest that the spectral properties of SAX J1748.9 2021 are consistent with a soft state, differently from many other accreting X ray millisecond pulsars which are usually found in the hard state. Moreover, none of the observed type I burst reached the Eddington luminosity. Assuming that the burst ignition and emission are produced above the whole NS surface, we estimate a neutron star radius of ~7 8 km, consistent with previous results.
Radio Pulse Search and X Ray Monitoring of SAX J1808.4 3658 What Causes Its Orbital Evolution?

The accreting millisecond X ray pulsar SAX J1808.4 3658 shows a peculiar orbital evolution that proceeds at a very fast pace. It is important to identify the underlying mechanism responsible for this behavior because it can help to understand how this system evolves and which physical processes (such as mass loss or spin orbit coupling) are occurring in the binary. It has also been suggested that, when in quiescence, SAX J1808.4 3658 turns on as a radio pulsar, a circumstance that might provide a link between accreting millisecond pulsars and black widow (BW) radio pulsars. In this work, we report the results of a deep radio pulsation search at 2 GHz using the Green Bank Telescope in 2014 August and an X ray study of the 2015 outburst with Chandra, Swift XRT, and INTEGRAL. In quiescence, we detect no radio pulsations and place the strongest limit to date on the pulsed radio flux density of any accreting millisecond pulsar. We also find that the orbit of SAX J1808.4 3658 continues evolving at a fast pace. We compare the orbital evolution of SAX J1808.4 3658 to that of several other accreting and nonaccreting binaries, including BWs, redbacks, cataclysmic variables, black holes, and neutron stars in low mass X ray binaries. We discuss two possible scenarios: either the neutron star has a large moment of inertia and is ablating the donor, generating mass loss with an efficiency of 40% or the donor star has a strong magnetic field of at least 1 kG and is undergoing quasi cyclic variations due to spin orbit coupling.

Learning Python Code Suggestion with a Sparse Pointer Network
Venue: ArXiv

To enhance developer productivity, all modern integrated development environments (IDEs) include code suggestion functionality that proposes likely next tokens at the cursor. While current IDEs work well for statically typed languages, their reliance on type annotations means that they do not provide the same level of support for dynamic programming languages as for statically typed languages. Moreover, suggestion engines in modern IDEs do not propose expressions or multi statement idiomatic code. Recent work has shown that language models can improve code suggestion systems by learning from software repositories. This paper introduces a neural language model with a sparse pointer network aimed at capturing very long range dependencies. We release a large scale code suggestion corpus of 41M lines of Python code crawled from GitHub. On this corpus, we found standard neural language models to perform well at suggesting local phenomena, but struggle to refer to identifiers that are introduced many tokens in the past. By augmenting a neural language model with a pointer network specialized in referring to predefined classes of identifiers, we obtain a much lower perplexity and a 5 percentage points increase in accuracy for code suggestion compared to an LSTM baseline. In fact, this increase in code suggestion accuracy is due to a 13 times more accurate prediction of identifiers. Furthermore, a qualitative analysis shows this model indeed captures interesting long range dependencies, like referring to a class member defined over 60 tokens in the past.
Anthraquinones and Derivatives from Marine Derived Fungi: Structural Diversity and Selected Biological Activities
Venue: Marine drugs

Anthraquinones and their derivatives constitute a large group of quinoid compounds with about 700 molecules described. They are widespread in fungi and their chemical diversity and biological activities recently attracted attention of industries in such fields as pharmaceuticals, clothes dyeing, and food colorants. Their positive and/or negative effect(s) due to the 9,10 anthracenedione structure and its substituents are still not clearly understood and their potential roles or effects on human health are today strongly discussed among scientists. As marine microorganisms recently appeared as producers of an astonishing variety of structurally unique secondary metabolites, they may represent a promising resource for identifying new candidates for therapeutic drugs or daily additives. Within this review, we investigate the present knowledge about the anthraquinones and derivatives listed to date from marine derived filamentous fungi's productions. This overview highlights the molecules which have been identified in microorganisms for the first time. The structures and colors of the anthraquinoid compounds come along with the known roles of some molecules in the life of the organisms. Some specific biological activities are also described. This may help to open doors towards innovative natural substances.
Anthraquinones As Pharmacological Tools and Drugs
Venue: Medicinal research reviews

Anthraquinones (9,10 dioxoanthracenes) constitute an important class of natural and synthetic compounds with a wide range of applications. Besides their utilization as colorants, anthraquinone derivatives have been used since centuries for medical applications, for example, as laxatives and antimicrobial and antiinflammatory agents. Current therapeutic indications include constipation, arthritis, multiple sclerosis, and cancer. Moreover, biologically active anthraquinones derived from Reactive Blue 2 have been utilized as valuable tool compounds for biochemical and pharmacological studies. They may serve as lead structures for the development of future drugs. However, the presence of the quinone moiety in the structure of anthraquinones raises safety concerns, and anthraquinone laxatives have therefore been under critical reassessment. This review article provides an overview of the chemistry, biology, and toxicology of anthraquinones focusing on their application as drugs.
Research advances for the extraction, analysis and uses of anthraquinones: A review

A current economic trend is to highlight natural resources, and many plant species are rich sources of anthraquinones. The latter are natural compounds that have various biological properties with subsequent positive and/or negative effects, and have found industrial application as natural dyes. The potential of anthraquinones to inhibit or prevent fungal and bacterial growth are two interesting biological properties, but many other properties are attributed to them, such as antioxidant, anticancer, anti inflammatory, laxative and many others. Each biological property attributed to anthraquinone derivatives is listed with several research works. These last ones are described in terms of materials and results. The intensity of research focused on natural compounds valuation from natural and suitable substances has been growing over the past few decades. In term of publications, anthraquinones have been the most studied in China with around 1/2 of publications (44% The article mainly provides a handy overall of different extraction methods, analysis techniques, whereas bioactive properties and industrial applications from various plant species containing anthraquinone derivatives are also reported. Numerous extraction and analysis methods are reviewed: Ultrasonic assisted, microwave, pressurisated fluid and supercritical fluid extraction, for the first, capillary electrophoresis, thin layer, liquid, gaseous, countercurrent and supercritical fluid chromatography for the second. Each technique is fundamentally explained and several studies dedicated to anthraquinones have been explored, describing both the part of the studied plant in which are located the anthraquinones (roots, leaves, seeds, flowers) and the physico chemical properties of these compound (volatility, acidity) The influence of parameters to optimize extraction and analysis methods are carefully described, and advantages of modern approaches are reported with regards to traditional ones, in terms of time and solvent consuming and efficiency. Finally, the most of the studied plants containing anthraquinone derivatives were from mainly 3 families (81% Polygonaceae Rubiaceae and Fabaceae The best known as anthraquinones are: rhein, aloe emodin, emodin, physcion, chrysophanol that are described in most studies and given as responsible of several biological properties. For industrial applications, these compounds are used as natural dyes to replace synthetic chemicals in formulation in order to prevent some side effects.
