On the homological properties of the universal enveloping Leibniz algebra
We presente a study of graded Leibniz algebras and its universal enveloping Leibniz algebra. We prove that the universal enveloping Leibniz algebra of a finite dimensional graded Leibniz algebra is a quasi-Koszul algebra or an inhomogeneous Koszul algebra. We presented an imersion of the derivation set of a Leibniz algebra with maximum lenght into the set of derivations of its universal enveloping Leibniz algebra to study the first homology group of those wild type associative algebras.
We will follow Loday and Pirashvili's work and Green and Martinez-Villa's works.

Letter from R. L. Scafie to John Muir, 1913 Sep 27.
449September 27, 1913.Dear Mr. Muir:We thank you for your letter of the 13th, calling our attention to the error which we made in describing My First Summer in the Sierras. I don\u27t see how such a statement could have crept in unawares. We will make the change immediately.Sincerely yours,[illegible]Mr. John Muir,Martinez, Calif.RLS/S4
Lactobacillus crispatus as the etiological agent in cytolytic vaginosis
Introduction: Lactobacillus spp. dominate the vaginal niche but can also be involved in other vaginal dysbiosis, such as cytolytic vaginosis (CV), which remains poorly studied. It is characterized by a cryptic symptomatology, that often confounds the clinic.
Goals: The aim of this work was to search for the etiological agent of CV, by studying the vaginal microbiome and metabolomics of women afflicted with this disease and compare it with women with other clinical diagnostic.
Methods: Twenty-one vaginal washes have been collected from women attending a gynaecology consultation of a private clinic. The samples were categorized according with clinical diagnosis at the time of sampling (CV, 11; vulvovaginal candidosis, 8; Healthy, 2). The distribution of bacterial species, and their prevalence was assessed by next-generation sequencing of the 16S V4 region. In addition, total lactate D-lactic acid and L-lactic acid was quantified in all washes by a commercial kit, as well as lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) activity.
Results: L. crispatus was dominant (>70%) in all CV samples. Lactate was increased in CV in comparison with other cases. The presence of D-lactic acid isomer was associated with presence of L. crispatus. LDH activity was increased in vaginal washes that tested positive for the presence of L. crispatus, however no direct association was found with CV cases.
Discussion/Conclusions: The microbiome of women afflicted with CV was dominated in all cases by L. crispatus, contrarily with the results obtained for women diagnosed with other clinical symptomatology. In addition, the finding that an increase in D-lactic acid is associated with CV patients can be related to the role of L. crispatus in CV. The determination of LDH activity did not correlate exclusively with CV cases. On the other hand, D-lactic acid and total lactate quantification could be used as a valuable biomarker to diagnose this cryptic vaginal infection.info:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersio

A Conversation with Dorothy Gilford
In 1946, Public Law 588 of the 79th Congress established the Office of Naval
Research (ONR). Its mission was to plan, foster and encourage scientific
research in support of Naval problems. The establishment of ONR predates the
National Science Foundation and initiated the refocusing of scientific
infrastructure in the United States following World War II. At the time, ONR
was the only source for federal support of basic research in the United States.
Dorothy Gilford was one of the first Heads of the Probability and Statistics
program at the Office of Naval Research (1955 to 1962), and she went on to
serve as Director of the Mathematical Sciences Division (1962 to 1968). During
her time at ONR, Dorothy influenced many areas of statistics and mathematics
and was ahead of her time in promoting interdisciplinary projects. Dorothy
continued her career at the National Center for Education Statistics (1969 to
1974). She was active in starting international comparisons of education
outcomes in different countries, which has influenced educational policy in the
United States. Dorothy went on to serve in many capacities at the National
Academy of Sciences, including Director of Human Resources Studies (1975 to
1978), Senior Statistician on the Committee on National Statistics (1978 to
1988) and Director of the Board on International Comparative Studies in
Education (1988 to 1994). The following is a conversation we had with Dorothy
Gilford in March of 2004. We found her to be an interesting person and a
remarkable statistician. We hope you agree.Comment: Published in at http://dx.doi.org/10.1214/088342307000000023 the

The development of environmental management systems and corporate responsibility reporting in NZ, UK and USA : a thesis presented in partial fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Environmental Management at Massey University, New Zealand
L. C. Martinez. The Development of Environmental Management Systems and Corporate Responsibility
Reporting in NZ, UK and USA, 121 pages, 2 figures, 2017.
The study reviews the initiation and development of environmental management systems (EMSs) and
how EMS and corporate responsibility (CR) reporting developed over time in New Zealand, the United
Kingdom (UK) and the United States of America (USA). Comparing the three countries provides New
Zealand with a global perspective to identify if northern hemisphere countries have better systems. The
study has two aims:
1. To compare and contrast the initiation and development of EMSs and CR reporting in New
Zealand, the UK and the USA; and
2. To suggest strategies New Zealand’s government and businesses could use to improve EMS and
CR reporting systems, and thereby strengthen the country’s business environmental
performance.
The scope of the thesis is the urban corporate and manufacturing sectors; the timeframe is from the
mid-twentieth century to the present. Scholarly journal and media articles, industry publications and
reference books used for the research were accessed via the ProQuest database, Massey University
online library, the New York Public Library and Google.
Results show that there has not been a clear and consistent pattern of EMS development in each study
country, but each country has been a leader and innovator at different stages. An initial scan suggested
that New Zealand has lower ISO 14001 certification numbers and CR reporting rates than the UK and
USA. When examined more closely, results show that New Zealand’s ISO 14001 certification intensity
(rather than raw numbers) is actually higher than the USA, although New Zealand and the USA both lag
behind the UK. Results also show that CR reporting is now completely mainstream business practice
worldwide. Despite this, New Zealand’s CR reporting is limited; unlike the other two study countries, this
form of reporting is not legislated.
Conclusions were that economic instruments in the UK and USA are shown to be an effective way to
incentivise clean business practices and increase EMS uptake. Multinational companies increasingly
scrutinize suppliers’ environmental credentials, which will impact New Zealand’s SMEs more into the
future. ISO 14001 is a necessary universal tool to remain relevant in today’s global economy, which may
incentivise higher uptake among New Zealand’s export businesses.
It was recommended that New Zealand’s government form a legislative requirement for CR reporting,
and firms should be encouraged to look to organizations such as the NZ Sustainable Business Council,
the Global Reporting Initiative and the International Integrated Reporting Council for guidance on CR
reporting
