Wage Cyclicality under Different Regimes of Industrial Relations
2010
Since there is scant evidence on the role of industrial relations in wage cyclicality, this paper analyzes the effect of collective wage contracts and of works councils on real wage growth. Using linked employer-employee data for western Germany, we find that works councils affect wage growth only in combination with collective bargaining. Wage adjustments to positive and negative economic shocks are not always symmetric. Only under sectoral bargaining there is a (nearly symmetric) reaction to rising and falling unemployment. In contrast, wage growth in establishments without collective bargaining adjusts only to falling unemployment and is unaffected by rising unemployment.
Ingegneri militari nella Sicilia degli Asburgo: formazione, competenze e carriera di una figura professionale tra Cinque e Seicento
2015
During the Sixteenth century and the first half of the following one, Sicily played a key role in the strategy of defense of the Spanish Empire from the looming Turkish threat, being an island considered as a baluarte against the Turks. Yet despite this absolute centrality in the military policy of the Spanish monarchy, till now historical research has preferred to provide broader spectrum interpretations at the expense of in-depth studies on individual technicians or overall pictures about the figure of the military engineer. We will present a synoptic view attesting the time period of activity covered by each military technician working for the kingdom of Sicily, within a wider study conc…
The interaction of S,N-coordinated dimethyltin(IV) derivatives with deoxyribonucleic acid: Structure and dynamics by119Sn mössbauer spectroscopy
1999
Complexes Me2SnCl(SPy) and Me2SnCl(SPym) (HSPy = 2-mercaptopyridine; HSPym = 2-mercaptopyrimidine), from ethanol solutions, interact with aqueous calf-thymus DNA yielding condensed phases with probable Me2Sn(SPy,-SPym) (DNA monomer) stoichiometries of 1:1; the condensation of DNA is inferred originated from electrostatic bonding between complex cations Me2Sn(SPy,SPym)+ and the phosphate oxygen of the phosphodiester groups. Octahedral-or trigonal-bipyramidal tin environments are inferred from the point-charge model treatment of the 119Sn Mössbauer parameter nuclear quadrupole splitting, considering the bonding by S and N, or only S donor atoms from the ligand, as well as possible coordinatio…
The influence of crossbite in early development of mandibular bone asymmetries in paediatric patients
2017
BACKGROUND All authors agree that posterior crossbite is a malocclusion that affects mandibular growth and may lead to skeletal asymmetry but there are few data on which age these modifications are easily quantifiable. MATERIAL AND METHODS For this study, the researchers used x-ray records of 217 children between 6 and 9 years of age, in the mixed dentition stage and with unilateral posterior crossbite. All the horizontal variables were traced and evaluated by the principal researcher, using the tpsDig version 2 computer program. Subsequently, a descriptive and statistical analysis was carried out, using the SPSS 17.0 for Windows program. RESULTS AND DISCUSSION After analysing the vertical …
Mechanical properties of the NiTi Memoria Leaf Spring Activated Expander (NiTi MLSAE) for maxillary transverse discrepancy correction: An in-vitro st…
2020
Background To determine the mechanical properties of the NiTi Memoria® Leaf Spring Activated Expander (NiTi MLSAE) in two forms, unaltered (unbent) and altered (bent) to mimic clinical use. Material and Methods This in-vitro pilot study was conducted using eight NiTi MLSAE expanders (American Tooth Industries, Oxnard, California) representing four force magnitudes: 10mm 500g, 10mm 900g, 6mm 450g and 6mm 900g models. Two experiments were performed: the first tested the expanders in their unbent form and the second tested them after they were bent by one experienced technician. All expanders were adapted to a standard three dimensional printed maxillary study model. A Dillion Quantrol 500N (1…
Study of the influence of crossbite on the size of the apical area in a child population by analyzing panoramic X-ray
2018
The apical area is the space in the maxillary bones that contains teeth during formation and is subsequently occupied by the apices of the permanent teeth. Its dimensions are easy to perceive and determine by observing a panoramic X-ray. Our objective was to analyze the influence of crossbite on the size of the anterior and mesial apical area in Caucasian children. Based on the ortopantomograph of 353 patients in mixed dentition and crossbite, the sizes of the apical areas of the four hemiarches were studied using the Tps Dig Version 2® computer program. These data were subjected to statistical analysis using the SPSS 22.0 for Windows program and applying the methods of descriptive statisti…

1799
Ms. 930a, Nr. 8, Bl. 22r-23v Böttiger, Karl August. Brief an Garlieb H. Merkel, Weimar, d[en] 13. November 1797 Autora rokraksts / Autograph, vācu, angļu un latīņu val. / Deutsch, Englisch und Latein [4] lpp. / S. Attēlu numuri / Bildnummern: 930a-008-1 – 930a-008-4 Der Verfasser nennt in diesem inhaltsreichen Brief zahlreiche Namen und hält nicht nur die Verbindung mit Merkel, die aus dessen erstem Aufenthalt in Weimar resultierte, aufrecht, sondern gibt ihm weitere Hinweise und Empfehlung für seinen weiteren Aufenthalt in Dänemark. So rät er zur Übersetzung dreier Romane aus dem Englischen, darunter Jane Wests „A gossip's story“ (London 1796). Ferner bittet der Verfasser Merkel um Gefälli…
