Abstract:
Tomato pith necrosis was observed on 2.7% of tomatoes grown in rows covered with black polyethylene, various biodegradable plastics, and an experimental spunbond poly(lactic) acid agricultural mulch in high tunnel and open field experimental plots, in western Washington in 2011. Symptoms developed on 3-month-old plants and progressed acropetally until night temperatures dropped to 10°C. Affected plants had chlorotic leaves, produced adventitious roots, and pith tissue was brown and either corrugated or rotted. Similar symptoms were observed again in 2012 on 2.0% of plants, but only in experimental plots with black polyethylene mulch. Diseased stem tissue was homogenized with a mortar and pestle in sterile water and the extract was streaked onto King's medium B (KMB) agar. Colonies were white and smooth initially, and after 5 days had an irregular surface and margin and produced a tan diffuse pigment. One isolate, Pc.Sl.2011, was gram-negative, grew at 37°C on nutrient broth yeast (NBY) agar, did not fluoresce on KMB (3), and was arginine dihydrolase positive. A partial 16S fragment, 1,387 bp, was obtained via PCR with universal 27f and 1492f primers. The resulting sequence exhibited 99% identity to Pseudomonas corrugata Roberts & Scarlett, and has been assigned GenBank Accession KC812729. Pathogenicity of Pc.Sl.2011 was tested in two greenhouse trials with five replications of one tomato plant per treatment. Seeds of ‘Celebrity’ were surface sterilized by soaking in 70% EtOH for 30 s and then 10% NaOCl for 30 s, then rinsed with sterile water and sown into 14 cm diameter pots filled with non-sterile Sunshine Mix #1 (SunGro Horticulture Distribution Inc., Bellevue, WA). Seedlings were inoculated at the four leaf stage using 5 ml NBY broth cultures of Pc.Sl.2011 grown at 28°C for 12 h with agitation. A sterile needle was used to inject 10 μl of either sterile water or a bacterial suspension of 1.0 × 1010 CFU/ml into the axil of the second true leaf. Inoculum concentration was confirmed by NBY dilution plate counts. The plants were incubated in clear polyethylene bags for 4 days and placed in a greenhouse at 21.1 ± 1.2°C with a 14-h photoperiod. The first and second trials were sampled at 8 and 9 weeks after inoculation, respectively. Plants inoculated with sterile water had green pith tissue. However, 60 and 40% of inoculated plants had brown pith tissue around the inoculation site in the first and second trial, respectively, but wilting and adventitious roots were not observed. Stem tissue from the inoculation site of symptomatic plants was homogenized as above, and the extract streaked onto NBY agar plates. Three isolates recovered from inoculated plants from both trials had the same characteristics as the original isolate, including similar colony morphology, ability to grow on NBY at 37°C, and lack of fluorescence on KMB. To our knowledge, this is the first documented report of tomato pith necrosis in Washington. Pith necrosis has been reported previously in high tunnel tomato production (4), where excess nitrogen fertilization occurs with cool evening temperatures (3), and when plastic mulch is utilized (2). In the cool climate of western Washington, successful tomato production requires the use of agricultural mulches and covers that trap heat. Since P. corrugata has been isolated from soil and the tomato seeds of inoculated plants (1), local growers attempting to manage pith necrosis need to select tomato seed lots carefully and avoid applying excess nitrogen, especially when using plastic mulch.

Abstract:
The desire to ensure safety of the infrastructure such as bridge, dam, and tunnel while reducing maintenance time and costs in the civil engineering applications emerged. Image processing techniques may well represent a next step in the development of smart monitoring of crack. In this paper, a method to inspect the surface crack in a concrete structure using 2D image has been proposed. The standardized crack specimen which has different crack widths was manufactured and the crack images were taken at the object distance from 5 to 60 m with 5 m step. The characteristics of the several edge operators such as Sobel, Prewitt, Robert, Canny and LoG to recognize the crack were analyzed according to the object distance.

Abstract:
ZusammenfassungDie wahre Inzidenz von Infektionskomplikationen im Zusammenhang mit Regionalanästhesie und -analgesie ist unbekannt, aber wie bei allen invasiven Verfahren besteht die Gefahr schwerer Folgeschäden. Dieser Beitrag gibt einen Überblick zu Hygienemaßnahmen basierend auf der S1-Leitlinie „Hygieneempfehlungen für die Regionalanästhesie“, aktuellen Empfehlungen des Robert Koch-Instituts und aktuellen wissenschaftlichen Erkenntnissen. Grundlegende hygienische Standards (Ablegen von Schmuck, gründliche Händedesinfektion, saubere Umgebung) sind anzuwenden. Ein Mund-Nasen-Schutz, eine Kopfhaube und sterile Handschuhe sind ein essenzieller Bestandteil jeder Regionalanästhesie. Für Katheterverfahren soll zusätzlich ein steriler langärmliger Kittel getragen werden, außerdem ist ein steriler Überzug für die Ultraschallsonde zu verwenden (beim Legen eines Katheters auch eine sterile Ummantelung des Zuleitungskabels). Hautdesinfektionsmittel sollten alkoholbasiert sein und eine Substanz mit Remanenzwirkung enthalten (z. B. Chlorhexidin oder Octenidin). Bei thorakalen Epiduralanästhesien eignet sich das Tunneln zur Infektionsprophylaxe. Unter Berücksichtigung von patientenbezogenen Faktoren (Diabetes, Adipositas, Immunsuppression) und je nach Verfahren (geplante Katheternutzung > 4 Tage, Einstichstelle des Katheters) kann eine Antibiotika-Prophylaxe in Erwägung gezogen werden.

Abstract:
The author analyzes the arguments in the report by Robert Kingdon, Petr Vanicek and Marcelo Santos “The shape of the quasigeoid” (IX Hotin-Marussi Symposium on Theoretical Geodesy, Italy, Rome, June 18 June 22, 2018), which presents the criticisms for the basic concepts of Molodensky’s theory, the normal height and height anomaly of the point on the earth’s surface, plotted on the reference ellipsoid surface and forming the surface of a quasigeoid. The main advantages of the system of normal heights, closely related to the theory of determining the external gravitational field and the Earth’s surface, are presented. Despite the fact that the main advantage of Molodensky’s theory is the rigorous determining the anomalous potential on the Earth’s surface, the use of the system of normal heights can be shown and proved separately. To do this, a simple example is given, where the change of marks along the floor of a strictly horizontal tunnel in the mountain massif is a criterion for the convenience of the system. In this example, the orthometric heights show a change of 3 cm per 1.5 km, which will require corrections to the measured elevations due the transition to a system of orthometric heights. The knowledge of the inner structure of the rock mass is also necessary. It should be noted that the normal heights are constant along the tunnel and behave as dynamic ones and there is no need to introduce corrections. Neither the ellipsoid nor the quasi-geoid is a reference for normal heights, because so far the heights are referenced to initial tide gauge. The points of the earth’s surface are assigned a height value; this is similar to the ideas of prof. L. V. Ogorodova about the excessive emphasis on the concept of quasigeoid. A more general term is the height anomaly that exists both for points on the Earth’s surface and at a distance from it and decreases together with an attenuation of the anomalous field.

Abstract:
SummaryChronic Achilles mechanism injuries require aggressive treatment with excision of degenerate tissue. Following excision of degenerate tendon, the defect created may be too large to allow simple apposition of tendon to bone. Use of peroneus brevis and peroneus longus tendon transpositions (passing through bone tunnels drilled in the calcaneus), +/− lengthening of the gastrocnemius tendon, and reinforcement with a free fascial strip graft allows reconstruction of the area. Postoperative support should be provided using a type II transarticular external fixator for four weeks, followed by a splint or Robert Jones bandage for three weeks. Treatment, in all four of the dogs in this report, resulted in a good to excellent outcome. Based on the favourable results in this series, resection of all grossly abnormal tendon should be considered in cases of Achilles mechanism rupture, even though reconstruction of the area is more complex.Five Achilles mechanism reconstructions were performed in four dogs with chronic injury to the tendon. Following excision of degenerate tendon the area was reconstructed, in each case using peroneus brevis and peroneus longus tendon transpositions, lengthening of the gastrocnemius tendon and reinforcement with a free fascial strip graft. Post-operative support was provided in the form of a type II trans-articular external fixator for four to five weeks, followed by a splint or Robert Jones bandage for two to three weeks. The results in all of the dogs were good to excellent. One dog returned to full working capacity. Two dogs returned to unrestricted exercise without any observable lameness. One dog (bilateral injury) is sound but the owners have decided to limit the dog’s access to unrestricted activity.

Abstract:
Tubulointerstitial renal injury induced by unilateral ureteric obstruction (UUO) is characterized by marked cell proliferation and apoptosis. Proliferation requires cell cycle transit that is positively regulated by cyclins and cyclin-dependent kinases (CDKs) and inhibited by the CIP/KIP family of cyclin-dependent kinase inhibitors (CKIs: p21, p27, and p57). We have shown that the absence of p27 results in markedly increased tubular epithelial cell proliferation and apoptosis following UUO (V. Ophascharoensuk, M. L. Fero, J. Hughes, J. M. Roberts, and S. J. Shankland. Nat. Med.4: 575–580, 1998). Since p21 mRNA is upregulated following UUO, we hypothesized that p21 would also serve to limit cell proliferation and apoptosis. We performed UUO in p21 +/+ and p21 −/− mice. Cell proliferation [bromodeoxyuridine (BrdU), proliferating cell nuclear antigen (PCNA)], apoptosis [terminal deoxynucleotidyl transferase-mediated dUTP-biotin nick end labeling (TUNEL) method], interstitial myofibroblast accumulation (actin), macrophage infiltration (F4/80), and collagen I expression were quantified at days 3, 7, and 14. In contrast to p27 −/− mice, there was no difference in tubular epithelial cell proliferation or apoptosis between p21 −/− and p21 +/+ mice at any time point. However, interstitial cell proliferation at day 3 was significantly increased in p21 −/− mice [BrdU, 40.7 ± 1.9 cells/high-power field (cells/hpf) vs. 28.8 ± 2, P< 0.005], although, interestingly, no difference was seen in interstitial cell apoptosis. Actin/BrdU double staining demonstrated increased interstitial myofibroblast proliferation at day 3 in p21 −/− animals (10 ± 0.12 vs. 5.8 ± 0.11 cells/hpf, P < 0.05), which was followed by increased myofibroblast accumulation at day 7 in p21 −/− mice. No differences were detected in interstitial macrophage infiltration, collagen I deposition or transforming growth factor-β1 mRNA (in situ hybridization) expression. In conclusion p21, unlike p27, is not essential for the regulation of tubular epithelial cell proliferation and apoptosis following UUO, but p21 levels do serve to limit the magnitude of the early myofibroblast proliferation. This study demonstrates a differential role for the CKI p21 and p27 in this model.

Abstract:
Syftet med uppsatsen har varit att undersöka hur mening kan skapas utifrån en upplevelse av den amerikanska konstnären Robert Irwins verk, Scrim Veil – Black Rectangle – Natural Light, Whitney Museum of American Art, New York, när det uppfördes på Whitney Museum 2013. Åtta recensioner bildar underlag för undersökningen där de partier som på något sätt hanterar hur recensenterna skapar mening av verket valts ut för närläsning. Metoden som använts för textselektion utgår från Mieke Bals koncept som Bal förklarar som ett alternativ till metod i sin bok Travelling Concepts. Uppsatsen tar teoretiskt spjärn mot Ludwig Wittgensteins begrepp språkspel och duckrabbit, (aspektväxling) som de beskrivits i Filosofiska undersökningar, publicerad 1953, samt gestalten som bildar figur-grund, en inom gestaltpsykologin utvecklad perceptionsteori. Uppsatsen visar på att mening har skapats av verket genom att det framträder, det förvandlar sig till en händelse, något som Rudolf Arnheim beskriver som An event in space, i sin bok Art and Visual Perception – A Psychology of the Creative Eye från 1954. Uppsatsen visar också på hur förförståelse genom bild eller text med stor sannolikhet påverkar upplevelsen av ett verk. Samtidigt är det svårt att avgöra om denna förståelse, med hänseende till uppsatsens material, är något som skapats innan verket upplevts eller är något som recensenten tagit till sig och adderat i samband med att recensionen skrivits. Två recensioner tenderar att ställa sig i vägen för det verk som de är tänkta att beskriva.

Abstract:
This dissertation is an exposition and critique of Robert Brandom's theory of discursive objectivity. It discusses this theory both within the context of Brandom's own systematic philosophical project and, in turn, within the ideas and questions characteristic of the Kantian and post-Kantian tradition in German philosophy. It is argued that Brandom's attempt to articulate a theory of the objectivity of discursive norms (and hence also of the content of discursive attitudes) resembles J.G. Fichte's development of themes central to Kant's philosophy. This "Fichtean" approach to the problem of objectivity is then compared and contrasted to that of G.W.F. Hegel. Though Brandom, Fichte and Hegel share the desire to derive an account of the conditions of objectivity from the social character is discursive practices, Hegel offers a version of this project that differs with respect to the nature of self-consciousness, sociality and truth. It is then argued that Brandom's theory suffers significant internal inconsistencies that could be avoided by adopting a more "Hegelian" approach to these three themes. More specifically, Brandom's own project requires that he recognize the necessity and irreducibility of firstperson and second-person discursive attitudes, as well as that he recognize the role of "I-We" social practices for discursive objectivity. Furthermore, he must include in his explanations some form of natural teleology and hence he must abandon his deflationary approach to semantic explanation. However, Brandom's methodological and metaphysical commitments prevent him from doing so.

Abstract:
Most contemporary variants of virtue ethics have a neo-Aristotelian timbre. However, standing alongside the neo-Aristotelians are a number of others playing similar tunes on different instruments. This chapter highlights the four most important virtue ethical alternatives to the dominant neo-Aristotelian chorus. These are Michael Slote’s agent-based approach, Linda Zagzebski’s exemplarism, Christine Swanton’s target-centered theory, and Robert Merrihew Adams’s neo-Platonic account. What these four approaches showcase is the range of possible theoretical structures available to virtue ethicists. A virtue ethicist might attempt to define other normative qualities like goodness or rightness in terms of virtuous traits. But she need not. Instead, she might develop a theory in which virtue is fundamental but other normative qualities obey a logic that is at least partially independent of virtue. This chapter draws attention to an exciting range of possibilities for virtue ethics that both critics and advocates alike will want to explore.

Abstract:
By the early 1960s, and for the first time in history, most Americans across the nation could tune their radio to a station that aired conservative programming from dawn to dusk. People listened to these shows in remarkable numbers; for example, the broadcaster with the largest listening audience, Carl McIntire, had a weekly audience of twenty million, or one in nine American households. For the sake of comparison, that is a higher percentage of the country than would listen to conservative talk radio host Rush Limbaugh forty years later. As this Radio Right phenomenon grew, President John F. Kennedy responded with the most successful government censorship campaign of the last half century. Taking the advice of union leader Walter Reuther, the Kennedy administration used the Internal Revenue Service and the Federal Communications Commission to pressure stations into dropping conservative programs. This book reveals the growing power of the Radio Right through the eyes of its opponents using confidential reports, internal correspondence, and Oval Office tape recordings. With the help of other liberal organizations, including the Democratic National Committee and the National Council of Churches, the censorship campaign muted the Radio Right. But by the late 1970s, technological innovations and regulatory changes fueled a resurgence in conservative broadcasting. A new generation of conservative broadcasters, from Pat Robertson to Ronald Reagan, harnessed the power of conservative mass media and transformed the political landscape of America.

Abstract:
Modernist American poets Robert Frost, Wallace Stevens, and William Carlos Williams insisted on the values of linguistic sound beyond the semantic. Stevens focused on the modulations of the sounds and lexical stresses of individual words within the meter. Frost and Williams focused on the less predictable intonational contours of phrases and sentences (although for Frost, the intonational contours play with and against the metrical pattern, whereas for Williams, lines tend to align with intonational phrases, turning prosodic speech tunes into a prosodic verse measure). Drawing on recent cognitive studies that pertain to the processing of speech sound and birdsong, this article suggests a need to revise critical assessments of the poets’ investments of belief in sound; it also considers why, given this research, Frost’s theory of sentence sounds has, perhaps unfairly, fared a worse critical reception.

Abstract:
The banjo tune “Foggy Mountain Breakdown” took a roundabout path to become the voice of the genre-changing film Bonnie and Clyde, first released in 1967. The movie’s eventual star, Warren Beatty, was behind the scoring and several stories are presented about his decision. The movie script, by Esquire staffers Robert Benton and David Newman, also passed through a succession of hands—including those of French New Wave auteurs François Truffaut and Jean-Luc Godard—before Beatty, its champion, succeeded in getting the services of American director Arthur Penn. The resulting movie, a fictionalization of criminals Clyde Barrow and Bonnie Parker’s murderous episodes, had a slow start but eventually galvanized audiences with its dark humor and raucous score. NYT critic Bosley Crowther saw his career at the paper end after fervently dissing the film.

Abstract:
Aldehydes such as 1 are readily available by direct enantioselective chlorination. Robert Britton of Simon Fraser University found (Org. Lett. 2010, 12, 4034) that the addition of the kinetic ketone enolate 2 gave the anti aldol 3. Condensation of the chlorohydrin 3 with a primary amine led to the cyclic pyrrolinium salt, that was reduced with high diastereocontrol to (+)-preussin 4. Tom Livinghouse of Montana State University developed Sc catalysts for the cyclization of γ-amino terminal alkenes such as 5. In contrast, addition to internal alkenes was sluggish. He has now shown (Org. Lett. 2010, 12, 4271) that a thiophene substituent activated the internal alkene for addition, enabling the facile synthesis of (±)-xenovenine 7. Chaozhong Li of the Shanghai Institute of Organic Chemistry found (Chem. Commun. 2010, 46, 8436) that ferrocenium ion cleanly oxidized the enolate of the β-keto ester 8, effecting cyclization to 9. The D-tryptophan-derived ester that directed the relative and absolute configuration of the cyclization could readily by removed, delivering (+)-subincanadine F 10. In a complementary approach to indole alkaloid synthesis, Hans-Ulrich Reissig of the Freie Universität Berlin devised (Angew. Chem. Int. Ed. 2010, 49, 8021) the elegant SmI2 -mediated double cyclization of 11 to 12. This set the stage for the assembly of (±)-strychnine 13. James S. Panek of Boston University used (Angew. Chem. Int. Ed. 2010, 49, 6165) the enantiomerically pure allylic silanes that he has developed to construct the chloroaldehyde 14. He found that the reductive cyclization to 15 was best carried out with SmI2 in benzene. SmI2 has the virtue that it is soluble in common organic solvents, so it can readily be deployed even on a micromolar scale. It is also versatile, because its reducing power can be tuned by the solvent in which it is dissolved.

In the case of higher education, that happened in the late 1960s: to Berkeley in 1967 and Columbia in 1968, to Paris in the May Days of 1968, to Harvard in the spring of 1969. Critics of those upheavals resorted to the language of world-class disasters: “The Time of Troubles,” “The Terror,” “World War III.” Apologists favored comparably distended metaphors of revolution and rebirth, of a Words worthian sense of sheer bliss to be young and alive and involved in a time of institutional re-creation. The university protests of the late sixties had large-scale demographic, cultural, and political sources: the coming of age of the baby boomers, the rise of the counterculture, the trauma of Vietnam. But the greatest institutional disruption in Harvard’s history occurred as well in a more particular context: that of the increasingly meritocratic, affluent, self-satisfied university of the sixties. Of course other schools shared these qualities and experienced similar (or worse) student uprisings. But there appears to have been a special degree of shock on the part of Harvard faculty, administrators, and alumni that so much student disaffection existed in their university: that it could have happened here. The Vietnam War was the flash point that set off the protests of the late sixties. As American involvement in Vietnam grew, so did on-campus opposition. Initially it proceeded within the prescribed Harvard tradition of civility and open debate. Divinity School dean Samuel Miller wanted “to be sure that all viewpoints are represented” at a faculty meeting on Vietnam in the spring of 1965, and National Security Adviser McGeorge Bundy participated in the (relatively) polite discussion. Antidraft demonstrations were limited to a handful of students; even the Crimson had what a Pusey aide called a “mature” editorial on the topic. In November 1966, Secretary of Defense Robert McNamara came to discuss the Vietnam War at the invitation of the Kennedy School’s Institute of Politics. He emerged from a talk with students in Quincy House to face a crowd, organized by Students for a Democratic Society, which tried to engage him in a “debate.” Ultimately he was obliged to escape through Harvard’s steam tunnels.

Abstract:
Recent progress in machine reading comprehension and question-answering has allowed machines to reach and even surpass human question-answering. However, the majority of these questions have only one answer, and more substantial testing on questions with multiple answers, or multi-span questions, has not yet been applied. Thus, we introduce a newly compiled dataset consisting of questions with multiple answers that originate from previously existing datasets. In addition, we run BERT-based models pre-trained for question-answering on our constructed dataset to evaluate their reading comprehension abilities. Among the three of BERT-based models we ran, RoBERTa exhibits the highest consistent performance, regardless of size. We find that all our models perform similarly on this new, multi-span dataset (21.492% F1) compared to the single-span source datasets (~33.36% F1). While the models tested on the source datasets were slightly fine-tuned, performance is similar enough to judge that task formulation does not drastically affect question-answering abilities. Our evaluations indicate that these models are indeed capable of adjusting to answer questions that require multiple answers. We hope that our findings will assist future development in questionanswering and improve existing question-answering products and methods.
