Abstract:
The article presents two letters from V.A. Musin-Pushkin which he wrote to his bride shortly before the wedding in 1828 (the letters are kept in the Russian State Archive of Ancient Acts). The text of the letters reflects the context of the time and everyday life, the system of views and the peculiarities of the worldview of a young aristocrat, the specific features of intra-family interaction in the field of feelings, marriage, human relations which inevitably turn out to be associated with the concepts of the family honor, family duty, the need to preserve the status of a noble family. The author traces how the power hierarchy is manifested at the level of relations within a close circle of relatives, as well as how traditional patterns are combined with new elements. Vladimir Alekseevich Musin-Pushkin, the youngest son of the archaeographer Count A.I. Musin-Pushkin, was arrested in connection with the case of the Decembrists, transferred from the Guards to the army and exiled to serve in Finland, where he met his future wife, Emilia Karlovna Shernval von Wallen. The article provides details of the family life of this married couple, as well as private facts from the biography of some other members of the Musin-Pushkin family.

Abstract:
This study aims to investigate the characterizations of Lintang in the English version of Laskar Pelangi novel (2009), The Rainbow Troops, based on Transitivity. As the unit of analysis, the data are 30 selected clauses, both uttered by Lintang himself or the narrator. The clauses are arranged chronologically based on the plot of the story consisting of phase 1 (opening), phase 2 (conflict & climax), and phase 3 (closing). This research employs qualitative descriptive design (Fraenkel & Wallen, 2007: 430). The approach for this research is narrative inquiry. According to Croker (Heigham & Croker, 2009: 16), among disciplines using narrative inquiry are anthropology, sociology, history, psychology and literature. The results show that based on transitivity theory, the characterizations of Lintang are represented and portrayed by the types of process and participant in every clause. Among his emerging characterizations are: hyperactive, brave, never-gives-up kid, heroism, and willing to sacrifice for his family.

Abstract:
Joint property distribution has been regulated in the Islamic Law Compilation (KHI), namely, Article 97 which explains that a widow or widower is entitled to half of the joint property. The distribution is fair if the husband and wife make the same contribution in the marriage. However, in fact, today we often find that wives are being the backbone of the family while husbands do not earn a living or husbands earn a living for the family, but wives do not take care of the household. If such a situation is found, is the article 97 of KHI still relevant? This paper presents a concept of joint property distribution based on the contribution of husband and wife in marriage which is considered fairer for both of them than what has been stipulated in the KHI and the Civil Code Articles 128-129. The type of research used is descriptive research. This means that research is discussed in the form of an explanation described in words carefully and thoroughly. The approach method used in this research is a normative juridical approach. The results of this study explain that to obtain the justice, judges can act contra legem (against the law) where justice should give a share to everyone based on his services or contributions (Aristotle). The joint property distribution in marriage from a justice perspective is the distribution of joint property by assessing the amount of contribution of the parties. A fair share does not have to be 50% for widowers and 50% for widows. The husband can get a smaller share from the wife if the contribution is less during the marriage and does not carry out his obligation as the breadwinner and the wife can get a larger share from the husband if the wife plays a dual role, and vice versa.Pembagian harta bersama telah diatur dalam Kompilasi Hukum Islam yakni pada pasal 97 dijelaskan bahwa janda atau duda berhak separuh dari harta bersama. Pembagian tersebut adil apabila suami dan istri memberikan kontribusi yang sama dalam perkawinan. Akan tetapi pada faktanya saat ini sering kita temui istri menjadi tulang punggung keluarga sedangkan suami tidak mencari nafkah atau suami mencari nafkah untuk keluarga akan tetapi istri tidak mengurus rumah tangga. Jika ditemukan keadaan seperti itu apakah masih relevan KHI pasal 97 tersebut. Tulisan ini menyajikan sebuah konsep pembagian harta bersama berdasarkan kontribusi suami istri dalam perkawinan yang dinilai lebih adil untuk keduanya daripada apa yang sudah diatur dalam KHI dan KUHPerdata Pasal 128-129. Hasil dari penelitian ini dijelaskan bahwa untuk mendapatkan sebuah keadilan hakim dapat bertindak contra legem (mengenyampingkan undang-undang) dimana keadilan itu seharusnya memberikan bagian kepada setiap orang didasarkan atas jasa-jasanya atau kontribusinya (aristoteles). Pembagian harta bersama dalam perkawinan jika dilihat dari perspektif keadilan adalah pembagian harta bersama dengan menilai besaran konstribusi para pihak. Dimana pembagian yang adil tidak harus 50 % untuk duda dan 50% untuk janda. suami bisa mendapatkan bagian yang lebih kecil dari istri apabila kontribusinya kurang selama perkawinan dan tidak menjalankan kewaibannya sebagai pencari nafkah dan istri bisa mendapatkan bagian yang lebih besar dari suami jika istri berperan ganda, begitu uga sebaliknya.

Abstract:
A 5-year-old female Walker hound was presented to the Washington State University Veterinary Teaching Hospital as a result of a narrowing of the vulva, which prevented natural breeding. All other physical and clinical findings were normal. Cytogenetic analysis disclosed a chromosome number of 77, with three metacentric chromosomes comprised of two X chromosomes and a Robertsonian translocation of two acrocentric autosomes, chromosomes 21 and 33. Cytogenetic analysis of two full-sister siblings with histories of absence of estrus disclosed one with the same translocation and one with a normal female chromosome constitution. The propositus was artificially inseminated with semen from a karyotypically normal male Walker hound and gave birth to nine live grossly normal pups, six females and three males. Another female pup was stillborn but was grossly normal. Cytogenetic analysis of the live pups disclosed that four (three males and one female) of the nine had the same translocation in all lymphocytes. The remaining five pups (five females) had normal female chromosome constitutions. The litter size was average for this breed. This is a previously unreported Robertsonian translocation in dogs.Key words: Robertsonian translocation, canine karyotype, Walker hound.

Abstract:
The Australian taxa of Micropezidae (listed at end of paper) are keyed and described. Crus, Scela, Veru and Seva are new subgenera of Metopochetus Enderlein. In all, 21 new species are described in the genera Metopochetus, CothornobataCzerny, CrepidochetusEnderlein and Mimegralla Rondani. Cothornobata inermis (Malloch) is a new combination (from Grammicomyia). Lectotypes are designated for Calobata compressa Walker (now in Metopochetus), Calobata bivittata Macquart (now in Metopochetus),Mimegralla contingens australicaHennig (now M. australica), Calobata contraria Walker [synonym ofMimegralla sepsoides (Walker)]. Records of the following from Australia are found to be erroneous: Calobata albimana Macquart [synonym ofTaeniaptera trivittata (Macquart)],Mimegralla abana (Walker), Calobata brevicellulata Macquart (now in Mimegralla), Calobata coeruleifrons Macquart (now in Mimegralla) and Metopochetus tipuloides (Walker). The erroneous record of Cothornobata viriata (Enderlein) from Papua New Guinea is corrected. Distributions of species are recorded by means of grid references to a key map. Information on ecology and habits of Australian micropezids is summarised. The populations of two flightless species are vulnerable, because each is apparently dependent on an ecologically vulnerable host-plant species (families Brassicaceae and Cephalotaceae). A phylogeny of the recognised subfamilies and tribes of Micropezidae is given. Literature on fossil micropezids is reviewed.

Abstract:
A genus of plant belongs to the family Solanaceae well distributed in India more than 26 species which are found naturalised in India. Solanum torvum Sw. is a medium sized flowering plant in the Solanaceae family that is found in India, Malaysia. Transverse section of lamina showed the adaxial part has thick, short hump; the midrib and the adaxial hump have thin, angular epidermal cells. The upper part of adaxial hump has a few layers sclerenchyma cells. The inner layer of the adaxial midrib also has few layers of thick walled cells. The ground tissue consists of wide circular thin walled parenchyma cells with narrow inter cellular spaces. The vascular system of the midrib showed bi-collateral structure. Non glandular, profusely branched, thick walled, lignified epidermal trichome occurs as both on the veins and lamina. Physico-chemical standards such as Foreign Matter, Total Ash, Water Soluble Ash, Sulphated Ash, Loss on Drying, Water Soluble Extractive, Alcohol Soluble Extractive and Crude Fiber Content in percentage were estimated. Preliminary phytochemical screening of appropriate solvent extracts showed the presence of Alkaloids, Amino Acids, Carbohydrates, Cellulose, Lignin, Fats & Fixed Oils, Flavonoids, Glycosides, Tannins, Proteins, Starch, Steroids and Triterpenoids and absence of Volatile Oil, Mucilage and Pectin. Microscopic analysis and other parameters were informative and provide valuable information in the identification, standardization of Solanum torvum leaves.

Abstract:
ABSTRACT The recently discovered nucleotide binding domain-leucine rich repeat (NLR) gene family is conserved from plants to mammals, and several members are associated with human autoinflammatory or immunodeficiency disorders. This family is defined by a central nucleotide binding domain that contains the highly conserved Walker A and Walker B motifs. Although the nucleotide binding domain is a defining feature of this family, it has not been extensively studied in its purified form. In this report, we show that purified Monarch-1/NLRP12, an NLR protein that negatively regulates NF-κB signaling, specifically binds ATP and exhibits ATP hydrolysis activity. Intact Walker A/B motifs are required for this activity. These motifs are also required for Monarch-1 to undergo self-oligomerization, Toll-like receptor- or CD40L-activated association with NF-κB-inducing kinase (NIK) and interleukin-1 receptor-associated kinase 1 (IRAK-1), degradation of NIK, and inhibition of IRAK-1 phosphorylation. The stable expression of a Walker A/B mutant in THP-1 monocytes results in increased production of proinflammatory cytokines and chemokines to an extent comparable to that in cells in which Monarch-1 is silenced via short hairpin RNA. The results of this study are consistent with a model wherein ATP binding regulates the anti-inflammatory activity of Monarch-1.

Abstract:
In 1862, F. Walker described Darala lineosa in the family Liparidae (now Erebidae, subfamily Lymantriinae) on a single female (he stated that it is a male but see Swinhoe 1892: 209) from Australia (Walker 1862: 269). The genus Darala is now considered a synonym of the large genus Anthela which belongs to the Anthelidae, a family entirely confined to the Australian region with representatives in Australia and New Guinea (Edwards & Fairey 1996: 258). These authors mention 61 Anthela species with about the same amount of synonymic species-group names, but they do not cite Darala lineosa, already indicating that this species does not belong to the Australian fauna and hence that the indication of “Australia” in the original description, and repeated in Walker (1865: 369), is erroneous.

Abstract:
Extensive studies of the geometric structures, stabilities and electronic properties of gallium nitride (GaN)n tubelike clusters and single-walled GaN nanotubes (GaNNTs) were carried out using density-functional theory (DFT) calculations. A family of stable tubelike structures with Ga–N alternating arrangement was observed when n≥8 and their structural units (four-membered rings (4MRs) and six-membered rings (6MRs)) obey the general developing formula. The size-dependent properties of the frontier molecular orbital surfaces explain why the long and stable tubelike clusters can be obtained successfully. They also illustrate the reason why GaNNTs can be synthesized experimentally. Our results also reveal that the single-walled GaNNTs, which as semiconductors with a large bandgap, can be prepared by using the proper assembly of tubelike clusters.

Abstract:
By examining the excavated bamboo slips and boards of Shuihudi 睡虎地 Western Han tomb no. 77 in Yunmeng 雲夢, it is possible to know that the name of the tomb occupant was Yue Ren 越人 and that he served as an Office Assistant 官佐 in Anlu 安陸 County from the ninth year (171 bce.) of the reign of Western Han Emperor Wendi 文帝 (r. 180–157 bce.) to the seventh year (157 bce.) of the Houyuan 後元 era (163–157 bce.) of his reign. In addition, we can understand a number of the actions and life events of Yue Ren and his colleagues and family members, and know that in the tenth month of the third year of the Houyuan era of Wendi’s reign (161 bce.), Yue Ren and his family moved their residence to Luli 路里. Moreover, by analyzing the slips and boards of tomb no. 77, and viewing these in connection with lacquerware items on which are inscribed two graphs spelling out “Luli” 路里 excavated from the Shuihudi Qin tombs, it can be concluded that from the Qin dynasty to the early Western Han dynasty, residents of Luli were entombed in the cemetery at Shuihudi. This provides what is currently the strongest evidence for arguing that the ancient walled town at Yunmeng 雲夢古城—also referred to as the “Walled Town of the Chu King” 楚王城—is the ruins of the walled town that was seat of Anlu County in the Qin and Han periods.

Abstract:
Kumawus is a thanksgiving event after the death of a family member, which is also called a weekly event or maso itam (local dialect). Kumawus in its short meaning, namely making finished or bekeng finished (in the local language/dialect), which is doing something to the end related to the life of a family member who has died. The main objectives of this study are: (1). To explain the implementation of the Kumawus tradition historically according to the cultural views of the To' mbulu sub-ethnic in Walian Village, South Tomohon District, Tomohon City. (2). Describe the factors behind the tradition of implementing Kumawus in the To' mbulu sub-ethnic community in Walian Village, South Tomohon District, Tomohon City. This study uses a qualitative approach with grounded theory methods. This study used a qualitative approach with "Grounded Theory" analysis, which was developed by Strauss and Corbin, namely through the Coding procedure or Emik's perspective. The subjects of this research are the community, village leaders, traditional elders, church leaders in the Walian village, Tomohon City. Data collection techniques using observation, interviews, documentation, and literature study. The research instrument is the researcher himself as the main instrument. Based on the results of the research and discussion above, it can be concluded that: the procession of the Kumawus tradition in the grieving family of the To' mbulu sub-ethnic community in Walian Village, South Tomohon Subdistrict, Tomohon City, shows that there is interaction and togetherness and cooperation between communities which shows a strong appreciation of local cultural values community linkages and interactions in the implementation of Kumawus continue to run well even though Walian Village has been divided into two new sub-districts and a central village.

The axial crushing of thin-walled tube has better energy absorption capability. Thus, introducing milled geometrical shapes on thin-walled tube may improve the energy absorption performance. The improvement of the crush response is determined through the reduction of the Initial Peak Force (IPF) and the increase of the Specific Energy Absorption (SEA). This was done by employing origami pattern milled on the surface of thin-walled square tube which was investigated experimentally and numerically. The material used for the tube was aluminum alloy 6063-T5. The simulation results were validated by experiments which were conducted using <span style="text-transform: uppercase;">Instron</span> 3382 Universal Testing Machine and <span style="text-transform: uppercase;">Instron Dynatup</span> 8250 Drop Hammer Machine. The numerical simulation then progressed by varying parameters such as dimensions and configurations of the origami pattern on the square tube. ABAQUS finite element (FE) software was used to conduct the numerical simulation. The result of employing the origami square pattern on square tube is expected to improve the crush response by lowering the IPF and increasing the SEA. The obtained results were then compared with the conventional square tube where the origami pattern on square tube enhanced the crush performance.</span>

Abstract:
Muriphaeosphaeria galatellae was collected from Galatella villosa in Russia and is introduced as a novel monotypic genus and species in the family Phaeosphaeriaceae (Pleosporales). Muriphaeosphaeria is distinct from other genera of the family Phaeosphaeriaceae by its unique suite of characters such as, superficial ascomata with an ascomatal wall comprising thin-walled brown cells, cellular pseudoparaphyses, muriform ascospores; and conidiomata with a thick hyaline inner wall layer producing cylindrical to subclavate, 1−3-transversely septate, brown conidia. The asexual morph of M. galatellae developed in cultures when grown on sterilized pine needles and bamboo pieces. A phylogenetic analysis based on combined LSU, SSU and ITS sequence data showed that M. galatellae forms a distinct lineage in Phaeosphaeriaceae. The new genus and species are introduced and compared with other taxa in the family.

ABSTRACT Objective: to analyze the attributes, antecedents and consequents of the family conference concept. Method: Walker and Avante's method for concept analysis and the stages of the integrative review process, with a selection of publications in the PubMed, Cinahl and Lilacs databases focusing on the family conference theme in the context of palliative care. Results: the most cited antecedents were the presence of doubts and the need to define a care plan. Family reunion and working instrument were evidenced as attributes. With respect to consequents, to promote the effective communication and to establish a plan of consensual action were the most remarkable elements. Final considerations: the scarcity of publications on the subject was observed, as well as and the limitation of the empirical studies to the space of intensive therapy. Thus, by analyzing the attributes, antecedents and consequents of the concept it was possible to follow their evolution and to show their efficacy and effectiveness as a therapeutic intervention.

Abstract:
Abstract Although the concept of family functioning has gained recent popularity, the terms "family functioning" and "family resilience" are sometimes confused and used interchangeably. The aim of this concept analysis was to clarify what is meant by family functioning in the context of diabetes self-management by assessing specific attributes, antecedents, and consequences. A concept analysis model by Walker and Avant was applied. The Identified attributes of family functioning in a diabetes self-management context Included problem-solving, communication, roles, affective responsiveness, affective involvement, and behavioral control. Antecedents Included family structure, socloeconomic status, family functioning relationships, family stage, and life events. Consequences Included family satisfaction, family cohesion, and family relationships. This analysis provided a deeper understanding of a family functioning concept within a diabetes self-management context. It is recommended that health care providers should be aware of antecedent factors that could inhibit outcome improvement. Further research is needed to explain family functioning attributes in relation to antecedents and potential consequences.

Abstract:
BackgroundDandy-Walker malformation features agenesis/hypoplasia of the cerebellar vermis, cystic dilatation of the fourth ventricle and enlargement of posterior fossa. Although Dandy-Walker malformation is relatively common and several genes were linked to the syndrome, the genetic cause in the majority of cases is unknown.ObjectiveTo identify the mutated gene responsible for Dandy-Walker malformation, kidney disease and bone marrow failure in four patients from two unrelated families.MethodsMedical assessment, sonographic, MRI and pathological studies were used to define phenotype. Chromosomal microarray analysis and whole-exome sequence were performed to unravel the genotype.ResultsWe report four subjects from two unrelated families with homozygous mutations in the Exocyst Complex Component 3-Like-2 gene (EXOC3L2).EXOC3L2 functions in trafficking of post-Golgi vesicles to the plasma membrane. In the first family a missense mutation in a highly conserved amino acid, p.Leu41Gln, was found in three fetuses; all had severe forms of Dandy-Walker malformation that was detectable by prenatal ultrasonography and confirmed by autopsy. In the second family, the affected child carried a nonsense mutation, p.Arg72*, and no detected protein. He had peritrigonal and cerebellar white matter abnormalities with enlargement of the ventricular trigones, developmental delay, pituitary hypoplasia, severe renal dysplasia and bone marrow failure.ConclusionWe propose that biallelic EXOC3L2 mutations lead to a novel syndrome that affects hindbrain development, kidney and possibly the bone marrow.

Abstract:
In 2012, a tertiary neonatal intensive care unit (NICU) transitioned from an open plan (OP) to a dual occupancy (DO) NICU. The DO design aimed to provide a developmental appropriate, family-centered environment for neonates and their families. During planning, staff questioned the impact DO would have on staff workflow and activity. To explore the impact of changing from an OP to a DO NICU, a prospective longitudinal study was undertaken from 2011 to 2014, using observational, time and motion, and surveys methods. Main outcome measures included distance walked by staff, minutes of staff activity, and staff perceptions of the DO design. Results highlighted no significant difference in the distances clinical nurses walked nor time spent providing direct clinical care, whereas technical support staff walked further than other staff in both designs. Staff perceived the DO design created a developmentally appropriate, family-centered environment that facilitated communication and collaboration between staff and families. Staff described the main challenges of the DO design such as effective staff communication, gaining educational opportunities, and the isolation of staff and families compared to the OP design. Our study provides new evidence that DO provides an improved developmentally environment and has similar positive benefits to single-family room for neonates and families. Such design may reduce the larger floor plan’s impact on staff walking distance and work practices. Challenges of staff transition can be minimized by planning and leadership throughout the development and move to a new design.

Abstract:
The family Englerulaceae presently includes seven genera that produce brown to dark-brown colonies on living leaves. Ascomata are superficial and scattered on the colonies and lack ostioles. Asci are 2–8-spored, bitunicate, ovate to globose and ascospores are multi-seriate, oblong to ellipsoid, brown, and smooth-walled with a single septum. This paper brings all genera of the family together in one place with descriptions and illustrations and discusses their current taxonomic placement. The type species of Englerula, Parenglerula, Rhizotexis, Rhytidenglerula, Schiffnerula and a new species of Thrauste are redescribed and illustrated with light photomicrographs, in this paper. It is suggested that Butleria should be accommodated in Myriangiaceae. Rhizotexis is excluded from the family and moved to Dothideomycetes genera incertae sedis, as morphological characters are not similar to type genus and other genera in the family. The type specimen of Goosia is missing and is redrawn from the protologue. By illustrating and redescribing the genera we expect renewed interest for recollection and molecular study so that these dothideomycetous genera can be placed in a natural taxonomic framework.

Abstract:
A current checklist of the Costa Rican cicada fauna is provided. The first Costa Rican records of Zammara calochroma Walker, 1858, Diceroprocta pusilla Davis, 1942, Diceroprocta ruatana (Distant, 1891), Ollanta modesta (Distant, 1881), Pacarina puella Davis, 1923, Pacarina schumanni Distant, 1905, Majeorona truncata Goding, 1925, Procollina medea (Stål, 1864), Carineta verna Distant, 1883, Carineta viridicollis (Germar, 1830), Herrera ancilla (Stål, 1864), Calyria cuna (Walker, 1850), Selymbria pluvialis Ramos & Wolda, 1985, and Conibosa occidentis (Walker, 1858) are provided. Diceroprocta digueti (Distant, 1906) and D. vitripennis (Say, 1830) are removed from the Costa Rican cicada fauna. The new records increase the known cicada diversity 45% bringing the total number of cicada species reported in Costa Rica to 45 species in 17 genera representing nine tribes and two subfamilies of the family Cicadidae.

Abstract:
The genus Andraca Walker, 1865, is divided into two subgenera, one of them new: Chrypathemola Zolt., subgen. nov. (typespecies Andraca apodecta Swinhoe, 1907). The following new species are described: Andraca draco, sp. nov. (from Java);Andraca lawa, sp. nov. (from Palawan), Andraca paradisea, sp. nov. (from Philippines), Andraca chrysocollis, sp. nov. (fromPhilippines) and Andraca (Chrypathemola) nobilorum, sp. nov. (from Vietnam). A male lectotype for Andraca bipunctataWalker, 1865 is designated from the collection of ZMHU; this designation led to the new synonymy: Andraca bipunctata Walker, 1865 = Andraca angulata Kishida, 1993, syn. nov. The systematics of the family Bombycidae is briefly discussed.

Abstract:
Diospyros malabarica (Desr.) Kostel synonym Diospyros peregrina Gurke (Family: Ebenaceae) is a medium sized evergreen tree commonly known as Kendu in Assamese. The plant has ethnomedicinal significance and used by various ethnic communities of North-East India to treat various disorders like dysentery, diabetes, diarrhea malaria, ulcer and wounds. However, detailed scientific information is not available to identify the plant material, in order to ascertain its quality and purity. Therefore, the present work was carried out to perform morpho-anatomical and physicochemical analysis of D. malabarica stem bark. The bark is externally dark brown to black in color and rough having characteristics odor and astringent taste. The microscopy of bark reveals the presence of polygonal thick walled cork, 3-4 layered phellogen, 7-8 layered phelloderm, stone cells, phloem fibers and medullary rays. Stem bark powder showed thick walled cork cells, thick walled elongated phloem fibers, lignified stone cells and rhomboidal crystals of calcium oxalate. Further, physicochemical analysis of the bark power showed loss on drying, total ash, water soluble ash, and acid insoluble ash as 6.2, 5.6, 1.1, 2.45, and 5.7% w/w respectively. The alcohol and water soluble extractives values of the stem bark were 10.6 and 16.8% w/w respectively. The result of preliminary phytochemical screening indicates presence of triterpenoids, saponins, tannins, flavonoids and sterols. The findings of this study will facilitate pharmacognostic standardization of the plant material and aid in the preparation of an herbal monograph for the species.

Abstract:
Introductions: Habits and beliefs of earlier practitioners influence medicine. We continue to wheel in the elective surgery patients to operating room (OR) which makes them feel not in self-control and increases anxiety. With few exceptions of heavily sedated, in severe pain or frail patients, most prefer to walk to the OR accompanied by nurse and family, if given the opportunity, in line with patient centered care. We aim to assess feasibility to allow elective surgery patients walk to OR accompanied by nurse and family member. Methods: This was a cross-sectional observation of 100 consecutive elective surgery patients admitted at surgery department, Patan Hospital, Nepal. Adult patients of 15 years or above were allowed to walk to OR accompanied by a nurse and family members. Demographic profile, patient satisfaction, anxiety on arriving to OR, patient feeling of autonomy were recorded to assess patient centered care. Microsoft Excel was used to descriptively analyze the data. Ethical approval was obtained. Results: Of 100 consecutive patients, 62 were female and 38 male, average age 52 years (range 15 to 72), and abdomen surgery 62 (62%). Two patients did not want to walk. The 98 patients who walked to the OR, all were satisfied and 89 were not anxious. Conclusions: Elective surgery patients (98 out of 100) accompanied by nurse and family members walked to operating room satisfied and were not anxious.

Abstract:
BackgroundThe attainment of walking is a focus of physical therapy intervention in children with cerebral palsy (CP) and may affect their independence in mobility and participation in daily activities. However, knowledge of determinants of independent walking to guide physical therapists' decision making is lacking.ObjectiveThe aim of this study was to identify child factors (postural control, reciprocal lower limb movement, functional strength, and motivation) and family factors (family support to child and support to family) that predict independent walking 1 year later in young children with CP at Gross Motor Function Classification System (GMFCS) levels II and III.DesignA secondary data analysis of an observational cohort study was performed.MethodsParticipants were 80 children with CP, 2 through 6 years of age. Child factors were measured 1 year prior to the walking outcome. Parent-reported items representing family factors were collected 7 months after study onset. The predictive model was analyzed using backward stepwise logistic regression.ResultsA measure of functional strength and dynamic postural control in a sit-to-stand activity was the only significant predictor of taking ≥3 steps independently. The positive likelihood ratio for predicting a “walker” was 3.26, and the negative likelihood ratio was 0.74. The model correctly identified a walker or “nonwalker” 75% of the time.LimitationsPrediction of walking ability was limited by the lack of specificity of child and family characteristics not prospectively selected and measurement of postural control, reciprocal lower limb movement, and functional strength 1 year prior to the walking outcome.ConclusionsThe ability to transfer from sitting to standing and from standing to sitting predicted independent walking in young children with CP. Prospective longitudinal studies are recommended to determine indicators of readiness for independent walking.

Abstract:
In this paper I provide a summary description of corporate structure in Chilean firms and explain the evolution of conglomerates and capital markets in the Chilean economy. Specifically, I look at the control mechanisms and the identity of controllers of listed non-financial companies in Chile. Using a database developed by Lefort and Walker (2000, 2003b), I look at the relationship between family ownership and control and market valuation of listed firms in Chile. The evidence provided in this paper indicates that in the case of the highly concentrated Chilean companies, family management of a company is associated to a market discount. This evidence is consistent with the hypothesis of imperfect correlation of talent across generations. However, as I explained earlier in the paper, most Chilean groups have less than 30 years of existence and therefore, the succession problem is not likely to be very important in Chile

Abstract:
The genus Orybina Snellen, 1895, a member of tribe Pyralini of the subfamily Pyralinae and family Pyralidae, was established as the objective replacement name for Oryba Walker, 1863. The original genus Oryba was established for its type species Oryba flaviplaga Walker, 1863 (by monotypy) from North Hindostan [North India]. Recently, the genus is reviewed by Qi et al. (2017) with inclusion of eight species and one subspecies in the World: Orybina kobesi Roesler, 1984, Orybina plangonalis (Walker, 1859), Orybina regalis (Leech, 1889), Orybina bellatulla Qi & Li, 2017, Orybina puerensis Qi & Li, 2017, Orybina hoenei Caradja, 1935, Orybina flaviplaga (Walker, 1863), Orybina imperatrix Caradja, 1925 and Orybina flaviplaga kiangsualis Caradja, 1925. The genus can be diagnosed by the rosteriform labial palpi, forewings reddish-brown or saffron, with a yellow spot (except in Orybina bellatulla). In the male genitalia uncus is triangular or tongue-shaped, and valvae are enlarged apically. In the female genitalia, the anterior apophyses and posterior apophyses are short, the ductus bursae usually coiled anteriorly, and the ovate corpus bursae is without signum (Qi et al. 2017).

Abstract:
The equations of conventional thin plate theory are used to formulate an eigenvalue problem for effects of self-equilibrating end loads in thin-walled rectangular cross section tubes, or box beams. The problem is analyzed by a perturbation procedure, which is based on a small parameter proportional to the square root of the ratio of wall thickness to cross section width. Solution of the unperturbed problem yields a family of membrane and inextensional end-effect eigenfunctions which are found to have decay distances on the order of the beam width or shorter. The perturbation procedure is carried out to obtain closed form asymptotically valid solutions for warping and distortional effects which decay much more slowly. These asymptotic solutions compare favorably with previous analytical and experimental results.
