The Merging Tracks of Anosognosia and Neglect
Anosognosia and hemineglect are among the most startling neurological phenomena identified during the 20th century. Though both are associated with right hemisphere cerebral dysfunction, notably stroke, each disorder had its own distinct literature. Anosognosia, as coined by Babinski in 1914, describes patients who seem to have no idea of their paralysis, despite general cognitive preservation. Certain patients seem more than unaware, with apparent resistance to awareness. More extreme, and qualitatively distinct, is denial of hemiplegia. Various interpretations of pathogenesis are still deliberated. As accounts of its captivating manifestations grew, anosognosia was established as a prominent symbol of neurological and psychic disturbance accompanying (right-hemisphere) stroke. Although reports of specific neglect-related symptomatology appeared earlier, not until nearly 2 decades after anosognosia’s inaugural definition was neglect formally defined by Brain, paving a path spanning some years, to depict a class of disorder with heterogeneous variants. Disordered awareness of body and extrapersonal space with right parietal lesions, and other symptom variations, were gathered under the canopy of neglect. Viewed as a disorder of corporeal awareness, explanatory interpretations involve mechanisms of extinction and perceptual processing, disturbance of spatial attention, and others. Odd alterations involving apparent concern, attitudes, or belief characterize many right hemisphere conditions. Anosognosia and neglect are re-examined, from the perspective of unawareness, the nature of belief, and its baffling distortions. Conceptual parallels between these 2 distinct disorders emerge, as the major role of the right hemisphere in mental representation of self is highlighted by its most fascinating syndromes of altered awareness.

Initial screening of critical success factors forgreen, lean and six Sigma implementation in Pakistani small and medium enterprises
It is believed that implementation of green, lean and six sigma (GLSS) practices in SMEs is important to achieve sustainable growth likewise large scale industries. Pakistan is a developing country and its economic development is heavily dependent over the existence and growth of SMEs. The aim of this study is to identify and rank the major critical success factors (CSFs) that will affect GLSS practices implementation in Pakistani SMEs .List of sixteen CSFs is developed based on the available literature and with the consultation of experts. Structured interviews are conducted from the academic and field experts to collect the data. Later on, data is statistically analyzed to rank the CSFs of GLSS implementation in SMEs. Top seven CSFs that achieved above 70% agreement by the experts are Management participation and support, Training and education, Leadership for GLSS, Legislation, Understanding GLSS methodologies, Organizational infrastructure and Technology up gradation in Pakistani SMEs. This study significantly lessens the implementation troubles and will assist in conducting empirical studies in SMEs by considering CSFs in Pakistani context.

Chlorine, Chloramine, Chlorine Dioxide, and Ozone Susceptibility of Mycobacterium avium
ABSTRACT Environmental and patient isolates of Mycobacterium avium were resistant to chlorine, monochloramine, chlorine dioxide, and ozone. For chlorine, the product of the disinfectant concentration (in parts per million) and the time (in minutes) to 99.9% inactivation for five M. avium strains ranged from 51 to 204. Chlorine susceptibility of cells was the same in washed cultures containing aggregates and in reduced aggregate fractions lacking aggregates. Cells of the more slowly growing strains were more resistant to chlorine than were cells of the more rapidly growing strains. Water-grown cells were 10-fold more resistant than medium-grown cells. Disinfectant resistance may be one factor promoting the persistence of M. avium in drinking water.

Para Sport Development Experiences: Perspectives of Para Swimmers and Parents
This study examined para swimmers’ athlete development experiences from the perspectives and reflections of athletes, and parents of athletes, with a focus on the constraints and challenges experienced. Guided by interpretive phenomenological analysis, 12 participants engaged in the interview process (seven parents and five athletes). Five themes were identified: fundamental skill development, personal connection, coaching, classification, and connecting with others “like me.” Through a discussion of the differences in development experiences between the participants in this study and the current literature on athlete development, the authors highlight areas of concern in applying a non-para-specific athlete development model to para swimmers. This study identifies several areas of consideration in the future design of a para athlete development framework or model.

RELAÇÃO DA TEMPERATURA DO AR E DO SOLO COM A QUANTIDADE DE CLOROFILA A (CHL A) E CLOROFILA B (CHL B) EM JUREMA PRETA (MIMOSA TENUIFLORA (WILLD) POIRET) NO SEMIÁRIDO DO NORDESTE DO BRASIL
A comunidade científica tem-se preocupado mais com Caatinga (Savana Estépica), seja em função da degradação antrópica e/ou devido a grande vulnerabilidade às mudanças climáticas. Considerando a abundância da jurema preta na região semiárida, a sua importância econômica e ecológica, e o estado de degradação provocado pela pecuária em que se encontram muitas áreas de Caatinga, e ainda levando em consideração as mudanças climáticas, neste estudo pretende-se relacionar fatores internos da folha (pigmentos) com fatores externos (temperatura do ar) da jurema preta (Mimosa tenuiflora (Willd) Poiret) de região semiárida do Nordeste do Brasil. Neste estudo, foram aplicadas estatísticas descritivas e de correlação linear para relacionar os fatores interno e externos a folha. Os resultados não apresentaram grandes diferenças entre a relação da temperatura do ar e da temperatura do solo com as clorofilas a e b. Essas informações poderão servir como base inicial aos estudos do balanço energético e a quantidade de clorofila que poderá ser encontrada na espécie estudada (dominante no semi-árido). Estudos futuros poderão indicar um modelo que apresente uma relação entre a quantidade de clorofila, conhecendo-se a quantidade de energia que a planta recebe (temperatura do ar).

CAPACIDAD DE SEIS ESPECIES VEGETALES PARA ACUMULAR PLOMO EN SUELOS CONTAMINADOS
El uso de especies vegetales como agentes descontaminantes de suelos contaminados por metales pesados representa una alternativa tecnológica económica y limpia que merece ser estudiada. En el presente trabajo se evaluaron las especies: Cenchrus ciliaris, Helianthus annus, Ricinus communis, Nicotiana tabacum, Sorghum sudanense y Brassica campestris, que fueron cultivadas en macetas con un suelo de textura franco arenosa que se contaminó artificialmente con 0, 500 y 1000 mg de Pb kg-1 de suelo con el objetivo de evaluar su capacidad de acumular plomo. Las especies difirieron en sus capacidad de acumular plomo. En el tratamiento 500 mg de Pb kg-1 de suelo el orden de estas capacidades (P ≤ 0.05) fueron: N. tabacum (3.27 y 3.08 mg de Pb kg-1 en la materia seca total y en la parte aérea respectivamente) > R. communis > C. ciliaris > S. sudanense > B. campestris > H. annus. Mientras que en el tratamiento 1000 mg de Pb kg-1 de suelo el orden (P ≤ 0.05) fue: R. communis (6.79 y 3.94 mg de Pb kg-1 en la materia seca total y parte aérea respectivamente) > S. sudanense > C. ciliaris > H. annus > N. tabacum = B. campestris. Con base en la literatura especializada, no se identificó a ninguna de las seis especies evaluadas como “hiperacumuladora de plomo”.

Foreword
Here is the first issue of the new journal, Acta Linguistica Asiatica, published by the Department of Asian and African Studies, Faculty of Arts, University of Ljubljana. Its appearance is approximately timed to commemorate the 15 years since the establishment of the Department on October 1st, 1995. In step with the developments in media and new modes of dissemination of the results of scholarly research, it is introduced as an on-line electronic publication.In the past 15 years, Asian Studies which were initially represented by Chinese and Japanese Studies, seem to have established a firm foothold in Slovenia. In addition to the existing Chinese Studies and Japanese Studies, the University of Ljubljana introduced in December 2010 new academic areas of Turkish Studies, Iranian Studies, Indian Studies and Korean Studies, thus giving green light to the establishment of systematic research of Asian issues within a wider framework.In the meantime, the body of researchers specializing in Asian languages has also grown, including teachers, visiting professors, researchers and graduate students who cover a wide spectrum of research fields.Also, the recent reform of higher education along the Bologna guidelines, although criticized, has happily brought into existence the interdisciplinary Doctoral Program in Humanities and Social Sciences and within its fold, the joint Doctoral program in Linguistics.The Journal Acta Linguistica Asiatica is thus emerging in a period of lively ferment, where unifying the field of discourse within language studies and at the same time opening it more widely to research in humanities and social sciences will undoubtedly have a long term impact on Asian language research at the University of Ljubljana.Serving as a focal point of research on Asian languages in Slovenia, Acta Linguistica Asiatica will at the same time strive to promote cooperation in the field of Asian language research internationally in Europe, Asia and beyond. Acta Linguistica Asiatica will, following Roman Jakobson’s saying, “Linguista sum, linguistici nihil a me alienum puto”, cover all the subject areas and theoretical approaches pertaining to theoretical and applied research on Asian languages. An international editorial board takes care of the research quality of the journal.The contents of the first issue reflect this orientation and openness. Three papers deal with various aspects of the role played by language in the process of modernization during and after Meiji Japan, i.e., The Relation Between the View on the Language and Educational Ideology in the Early Meiji Period in Japan Through the Discourse of Regionalism by Ichimiya Yufuko, Towards Theoretical Approach to the Understanding of Language Ideologies in Post-Meiji Japan by Luka Culiberg, and Images of Pre-WW II: National Language Policies as Reflected in the Field of “National Language Studies” Itself by Andrej Bekeš.Another focus of interest is philological, represented by two papers. One is Morphology and Syntax in Holes and Scratches: The Latest Stage of Kugyol Research, an interesting research on kugyol, a system devised to facilitate reading Chinese Buddhist texts in Korean, by Lee Yong. The other,The Typology of Āmreḍita Compounds in the Ṛgveda by Tamara Ditrich, investigates āmreḍita compounds in the Ṛgveda, a type of coordinative nominal constructions, closely related to dvandva compounds.Finally, this issue is concluded with the article Collocational Relations in Japanese Language Textbooks and Computer-assisted Language Learning Resources, by Irena Srdanović and deals with the teaching of collocations in modern Japanese, based on corpora.

»Ihr habt nicht recht von mir geredet wie mein Knecht Hiob«
Zusammenfassung Am Ende des in vielen Passagen geheimnisvollen Hiobbuches stellt sich in 42,7 sein größtes Rätsel: »Ihr habt nicht recht von mir geredet wie mein Knecht Hiob« - wieso wird der von den Freunden, von Gott und schließlich von sich selbst verurteilte Hiob doch ins Recht gesetzt und emphatisch belobigt? Der Aufsatz bietet zunächst einen geordneten Überblick über die vielfältigen Lösungsversuche der Forschung. Alle bisherigen Deutungen weisen nicht unerhebliche Schwächen auf; welche Inhalte der Reden Hiobs präzise gemeint sind, bleibt unsicher. Danach wird eine neue Übersetzung begründet (»ihr habt nicht recht zu mir geredet«) und die These entwickelt, dass nicht allein der objektive Inhalt, sondern die Sprechrichtung das entscheidende Kriterium für richtige Theologie ist - auch für die gegenwärtige: nicht Reden über Gott, sondern Reden zu Gott.

Can Social Capital and Psychological Capital Improve the Entrepreneurial Performance of the New Generation of Migrant Workers in China?
The new generation of migrant workers may play a crucial role in boosting China’s rural economy. With the rise of knowledge economy and the advent of the information age, it is difficult for human capital and economic capital alone to gain advantages in entrepreneurship. Thus, the study of social capital and psychological capital becomes more prominent. Within this context, this paper explores the relationships among entrepreneurs’ psychological capital, social capital, and entrepreneurial outcomes for the new generation of migrant workers in the Shaanxi province. This study uses a quantitative research approach. Primary data were collected from 525 rural households in the Shaanxi province. A structural equation model is used to verify the association between social capital, psychological capital, and entrepreneurial performance. The psychological capital of the new generation of migrant workers is found to exert a more significant impact on their entrepreneurial opportunity recognition and entrepreneurial environment perception than social capital. Both entrepreneurial opportunity recognition and entrepreneurial environment perception of the new generation of migrant workers are conducive to the improvement of entrepreneurial performance. Nevertheless, the intermediary role of entrepreneurial opportunity recognition is more prominent than entrepreneurial environment perception.

Thixotropic Behavior of Carbon Black in Rubber
Abstract The addition of carbon black may cause considerable changes in the physical properties of rubber. Often rubbers compounded with carbon black or other fillers show evidence of thixotropic behavior—their properties depend on the past history of the rubber and may be changed on the one hand by continuous standing and on the other hand by working. This paper describes investigations into the behavior of both unvulcanized and vulcanized rubbers, and discusses the thixotropic build-up and breakdown of colloidal carbon black structures which are shown to exist in rubber. The importance of this build-up and breakdown of structure has not been adequately appreciated in many measurements on compounded rubbers; for example, the terms viscosity, plasticity, and stiffness (modulus) can only be defined when complications due to thixotropy are carefully controlled before and during the actual measurement. A knowledge and understanding of this behavior enables the significance of the results of various tests on these materials to be more correctly assessed and accounts for behavior which has previously appeared to be anomalous. The deficiencies of earlier theories of the reënforcement of rubber produced by carbon black are indicated, and modifications which make allowance for thixotropic filler structure are proposed.

Abstract P373: Persistent Hyperintensity on Diffusion Weighted Imaging One Month After Stroke is Associated With Larger Ischemic Lesions and Greater Loss of Function
Background: Diffusion weighted imaging (DWI) becomes hyperintense within minutes of ischemic insult to cerebral tissue. While apparent diffusion coefficient maps evolve rapidly during the days after ischemia, DWI typically remains bright for weeks to months after a stroke. This phenomenon is often referred to as “T2-shine through.” We sought to investigate factors that influence persistent hyperintensity on DWI. Methods: The study population included ischemic stroke patients who were admitted to two regional stroke centers and imaged with MRI Results: Thirty-one patients were included in the study; median age was 63 and 58% were women. Hyperintensity on DWI was absent at 30 days in 9 patients (29%), mixed in 11 patients (35%) and bright in 11 patients (35%). Greater DWI hyperintensity 30 days post stroke was associated with larger volume of the perfusion deficit on presentation (p=0.037) but not with core stroke volume (p=0.621) or mismatch ratio (p=0.719). DWI hyperintensity was not associated with demographic or clinical variables. Greater DWI hyperintensity rate was associated with worse post-stroke disability when comparing premorbid modified Rankin score (mRS) with the follow up mRS (p=0.026) as depicted in the figure that showing a box plot of change in mRS vs. degree of “T2-shine through”. Conclusions: Persistent hyperintensity on DWI a month after stroke may be an indicator of greater disability. Larger studies are needed to confirm these findings and understand their implications for further recovery.

Natalizumab-PML survivors with subsequent MS treatment
Objective:To describe the clinico-radiologic outcome of MS patients with natalizumab-related progressive multifocal leukoencephalopathy (Nz-PML) surviving and receiving disease-modifying therapy (DMT).Methods:We describe clinical and radiologic evolution of Nz-PML survivors in an observational retrospective multicenter cohort to clarify the effect of different subsequent MS DMT strategies. Twenty-three patients from 11 centers were analyzed. Outcomes were (1) clinical efficacy of post-PML MS DMT, (2) radiologic efficacy of post-PML MS DMT, (3) radiologic evolution of PML lesion, and (4) disability progression.Results:There was no clinical worsening of PML symptoms with a stability of Expanded Disability Status Scale at the last follow-up. No relapse was reported with fingolimod and dimethyl fumarate. No radiologic worsening of Nz-PML lesion was observed at the end of the follow-up.Conclusion:In this large cohort of patients with Nz-PML, MS therapies given after Nz discontinuation were not associated with PML worsening. A larger cohort with longer follow-up will be necessary to confirm this therapeutic strategy.

Eye-movement control in reading: Models and predictions
It is argued here that a critical prediction of the E-Z Reader model is that experimental manipulations that disrupt early encoding of visual and orthographic features of the fixated word without affecting subsequent lexical processing should influence the processing difficulty of the fixated word without producing any processing effect on the next word. This prediction is explained and illustrated.
