The Quiet Game
No full textA Novel by Greg Iles Penguin hardcover, 6.99, ISBN: 0451180429, 7/2000) Preposterous, but eminently suspenseful, legal procedural about a Mississippi river town\u27s buried secrets, by the author of Mortal Fear (1996), etc. Penn Cage, once a Texas prosecutor, now an infinitely wealthy bestselling lawyer-novelist, cant get over the recent cancer death of his wife, and is just a bit troubled about death threats from the brother of a demented white supremacist he put on death row. After a vacation in Disney World with his daughter Annie, Cage embarks on an extended visit with his parents in Natchez, Tennessee, where he finds that Ray Presley, a white-trash former cop is blackmailing Penn\u27s saintly physician father. It seems that Presley filched a gun from the good doctor, then used it in an unsolved murder. Now, Penn buys back the gun from Presley with a mountain of cash, and later sits down for a famous author interview with the young, rich, beautiful, and brainy Caitlin Masters, the Pulitzer-crazed publisher of the local newspaper, during which he mentions, in passing, a 1968 racially motivated murder of Del Peyton, a young, black factory worker that both the police and the FBI failed to solve. Masters prints her interview, stirring up old animosities all over, including a rancorous legal dispute between Cage\u27s father and Judge Leo Marston, a local powerbroker who was a district attorney at the time. Peyton\u27s widow suddenly appears and asks the famous writer to find who killed her husband. Penn reluctantly agrees, then runs into his old girlfriend, Livy Marston, Leo\u27s flawless, southern-belle daughter. Livy mysteriously ditched Cage 20 years ago, but now can\u27t wait to stoke the old fire. Meanwhile, FBI Director John Portman, Cage\u27s old nemesis, weighs in with nasty threats as Cage braves bullies, dodges bullets, rides down icy rapids, and prepares for a courtroom battle. Breezy, Grisham-style read that tweaks the conventions of southern gothic. (Author tour) ―Copyright © 1999, Kirkus Associates, LP.

Temperamento y crianza
No full textEl objetivo de la investigación fue analizar la relación que presenta el temperamento de los niños desde su nacimiento de acuerdo con las pautas de crianza que instauran los padres. Para dar respuesta a la pregunta de investigación se llevó a cabo una revisión sistemática de la literatura, donde se analizaron alrededor de 150 artículos de los cuales se escogieron 30, por su pertinencia al relacionar las dos variables temperamento y crianza, se incluyó artículos que fueran de habla inglesa, portuguesa y española, con un periodo de tiempo de los últimos 20 años. La investigación del temperamento en relación con la crianza resulta fundamental, porque estas dimensiones psicológicas hacen parte de la construcción de la personalidad del niño. La investigación se fundamentó en una revisión sistemática de la literatura, a partir de la cual se realizó una estadística descriptiva, tratando de identificar la relación entre las variables temperamento y pautas de crianza. En un documento adjunto en Excel, se encuentran datos acerca de autores, año de publicación, posición teórica, métodos, edades, muestras, procedimientos y finalmente relación entre temperamento y crianza.
En la recolección de los artículos de los últimos 20 años se encontró que la mayoría de los sustentos teóricos son en el año 1995, siendo Kagan, J. el autor más referenciado y Mester, M., Tur, M., & Victoria del barrio, M. (2004) los autores con más investigaciones realizadas sobre el tema con un 13% equivalente a 4 artículos.
Se encontró que el enfoque más utilizado como marco de referencia teórico en las investigaciones es el cognitivo conductual con un 47% de las investigaciones y el método más utilizado son los cuestionarios estandarizados con un 50%. (Emotional lnestability Scale (El), Eig Five Questionnaire (BFQ), Cuestionario de Conducta Infantil IBQ; Cuestionario de Conducta Infantil temprana ECBQ; Cuestionario de Conducta Infantil CBQ, Cuestionario de Percepción de Crianza PCRI-M, Cuestionario temperamento infantil de Carey y McDevitt)
Se identificó la correlación existente entre temperamento y las pautas de crianza en un 60% de las investigaciones consultadas. Se encontraron correlaciones significativas entre crianza y temperamento en varias dimensiones como: la socialización de los niños, la comunicación y la modulación del comportamiento y las emociones a través de la implementación de patrones contingenciales, utilizando reforzamientos y castigos.1.

Coronal Heating as Determined by the Solar Flare Frequency Distribution Obtained by Aggregating Case Studies
No full textFlare frequency distributions represent a key approach to addressing one of
the largest problems in solar and stellar physics: determining the mechanism
that counter-intuitively heats coronae to temperatures that are orders of
magnitude hotter than the corresponding photospheres. It is widely accepted
that the magnetic field is responsible for the heating, but there are two
competing mechanisms that could explain it: nanoflares or Alfv\'en waves. To
date, neither can be directly observed. Nanoflares are, by definition,
extremely small, but their aggregate energy release could represent a
substantial heating mechanism, presuming they are sufficiently abundant. One
way to test this presumption is via the flare frequency distribution, which
describes how often flares of various energies occur. If the slope of the power
law fitting the flare frequency distribution is above a critical threshold,
as established in prior literature, then there should be a
sufficient abundance of nanoflares to explain coronal heating. We performed
600 case studies of solar flares, made possible by an unprecedented number
of data analysts via three semesters of an undergraduate physics laboratory
course. This allowed us to include two crucial, but nontrivial, analysis
methods: pre-flare baseline subtraction and computation of the flare energy,
which requires determining flare start and stop times. We aggregated the
results of these analyses into a statistical study to determine that . This is below the critical threshold, suggesting that Alfv\'en
waves are an important driver of coronal heating.Comment: 1,002 authors, 14 pages, 4 figures, 3 tables, published by The

Immune responses following third COVID-19 vaccination are reduced in patients with hematological malignancies compared to patients with solid cancer.
No full textIn this report from the CAPTURE study (NCT03226886), we demonstrate that a third dose of COVID-19 vaccine boosts neutralizing antibody (NAb) and cellular responses in patients with cancer, including those that had undetectable NAb titers (NAbT) following two vaccine doses or for whom NAbT waned. We have noted that one key member of the CAPTURE consortium—Sanjay Popat—was inadvertently not included in the author list. We now include him as a co-author. There are no additional changes to the declaration of interests statement, since Dr. Popat declares no competing conflict of interest. This author list change is now reflected in the online version of this letter
The use of restraint in four general hospital emergency departments in Australia
No full textAuthor version made available in accordance with publisher copyright policy.Objective: The purpose of this study was to investigate restraint use in Australian emergency departments (EDs).
Method: A retrospective audit of restraint incidents in four EDs (from 1 January 2010 to 31 December 2011).
Results: The restraint rate was 0.04% of total ED presentations. Males and females were involved in similar numbers of incidents. Over 90% of restrained patients had a mental illness diagnosis and were compulsorily hospitalised. Mechanical restraint with the use of soft shackles was the main method used. Restraint was enacted to prevent harm to self and/or others. Median incident duration was 2 hours 5 minutes.
Conclusions: In order to better integrate the needs of mental health clients, consideration is needed as to what improvements to procedures and the ED environment can be made. EDs should particularly focus on reducing restraint duration and the use of hard shackles
