Leadership Team Tool for better meaning making

2016

Purpose– The purpose of this paper is to present a Leadership Team Tool for developing reflexivity in the context of leadership teams.Design/methodology/approach– The Leadership Team Tool is based on the theoretical premises of seeing communication as meaning making, and therefore placing discourse and conversation in the center of developing leadership teams.Findings– The paper illustrates how reflexivity can be facilitated through a structured process of using the Leadership Team Tool. An empirical investigation of using the tool in an authentic leadership team setting is warranted to further develop the Leadership Team Tool.Originality/value– The paper makes a practical contribution to s…

Intestinal conversion of linoleic acid to arachidonic acid in the rat

1993

Abstract The arachidonic acid (C20:4, n-6) appearing in intestinal lymph during linoleic acid (C18:2, n-6) absorption may originate from enterocyte synthesis or from the liver either after secretion in biliary phospholipids at the same time dietary linoleic acid absorption occurs or via plasma. The radioactivity measured in the total bile collected during the 6 hours of linoleic acid absorption is too small to explain hepatic origin of the C20:4 detected by high performance liquid chromatography analysis of labeled fatty acids recovered in the lymph, in the intestinal mucosa, and the intestinal wall at the peak of linoleic acid intestinal absorption. This study confirms the probability that…

Supplementary frequency regulation in non-synchronous AC system connected via MTDC

2019

Abstract In smart grid power system operation, frequency regulation is one of the most critical tasks towards power balance in the grid. This paper presents the schemes for improvement in operation of secondary loop of turbine-generator unit for frequency regulation in non-synchronous AC areas connected via multi-terminal direct current (MTDC) network. Two schemes have been discussed; (i) voltage droop based lead/lag compensator and (ii) DC power modulation at converter terminal depending upon frequency deviation from each AC area. In the first scheme, droop design based on lead/lag compensator using DC voltage deviation is introduced as supplementary signal at turbine-generator unit in eac…

El periodismo católico contra las reformas republicanas sobre enseñanza (1931-1933)

2014

La politización de la prensa española durante la II República fue especialmente intensa entre las cabeceras católicas. Los diarios ABC y El Debate, los dos periódicos conservadores más importantes durante aquellos años, fueron muy activos en las protestas contra las reformas vinculadas con la enseñanza. Sus discursos se sumaban a la propaganda de la reacción y fortalecían la acción de colectivos y organizaciones. Este trabajo analiza una muestra de editoriales y crónicas publicadas por estos periódicos con el objetivo de determinar, por un lado, qué mediaciones llevaron a cabo y, por otro, hasta qué punto su voluntad intervencionista quedó plasmada en sus artículos. Los resultados indican q…

Combination of searches for anomalous top quark couplings with 5.4 fb−1 of pp¯ collisions

2012

We present measurements of the tWb coupling form factors using information from electroweak single top quark production and from the helicity of W bosons from top quark decays in t (t) over bar events. We set upper limits on anomalous tWb coupling form factors using data collected with the DO detector at the Tevatron p (p) over bar collider corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 5.4 fb(-1).

Differential diurnal variations of anandamide and 2-arachidonoyl-glycerol levels in rat brain.

2004

The endogenous ligands of cannabinoid receptors, also known as endocannabinoids, have been implicated in many physiological and pathological processes of the central nervous system. Here we show that the levels of the two major endocannabinoids, anandamide and 2-arachidonoyl-glycerol (2-AG), in four areas of the rat brain, change dramatically between the light and dark phases of the day. While anandamide levels in the nucleus accumbens, pre-frontal cortex, striatum and hippocampus were significantly higher in the dark phase, the opposite was observed with 2-AG, whose levels were significantly higher during the light phase in all four regions. We found that the activity of the fatty acid ami…

Optimal contract length for biodiversity conservation under conservation budget constraint

2014

We examine the optimal length of a contract period in a conservation program with payments for ecosystem services aiming at protecting biodiversity on privately owned forests. The government chooses the number of stands and the length of contracts so as to maximize biodiversity benefits under a binding conservation budget. We examine the implication of two alternative budgets: a separate budget for each period (periodic budget) or one budget that to be used in all periods (intertemporal budget). The impact of the budget type shows up in the fact that with intertemporal budget choice set is larger and more high quality stands are available for contracting. Based on theoretical characterizati…
