BANUS 3 6/7/2004 4:29 PM INTRODUCTION This document summarizes all the data derived from a survey undertaken in the IAI CRN projects in the following topics: 1. Additional/Parallel funds 2. Students 3. Publications 4. Scientists and/or Institutions The results obtained under these four topics clearly show that the CRN program has contributed to the establishment of a network of institutions, scientists, students, and financial resources. 1. Additional/Parallel funds They are the financial resources leveraged by the CRN PIs which are informed to the IAI Directorate through the PIs’ annual scientific reports and which are related to the activity of each CRN project. In many cases the “seed money” the PIs receive from the IAI attracts additional funds to their projects. Up to the moment, the additional/parallel funds exceed the total amount of US$ 20.760.113. They are distributed as follow: • CRN 001 – Holm Tiessen U$S 4.277.439 • CRN 003 – Brian Luckman U$S 1.969.889 • CRN 009 – Charles Wood U$S 2.693.994 • CRN 012 – Osvaldo Sala U$S 390.194 • CRN 026 – Maria Vernet U$S 1.091.694 • CRN 031 – Allan Lavell U$S 361.320 • CRN 038 – Pilar Cornejo U$S 110.100 • CRN 040 – Juan Silva U$S 301.999 • CRN 047 – Michael McClain U$S 2.029.996 • CRN 048 – Ulises Confalonieri U$S 265.208 • CRN 055 – Mario Núñez U$S 2.753.387 • CRN 061 – Edmo Campos U$S 2.688.197 • CRN 062 – Tim Baumgartner U$S 1.172.496 • CRN 073 – Victor Magaña U$S 654.200 By analyzing the source of these additional funds, it was realized that the organizations related to Science and Technology of the member countries are involved in the majority of the projects. However, other institutions, foundations, and countries out of the continent were joining the program as it was progressing (for example: the European Union, France, Germany, UNDP, GEF, World Bank, Red Latinoamericana de Botánica, etc.) It is important to highlight that additional/parallel funds are not received by the IAI. They are received as subsidies by the scientists and/or institutions related to the CRN projects. A follow-up on these additional funds can also be done by the country the funds originate from and then by the institution. EC - COP MEETING – BUENOS AIRES, ARGENTINA. COLLABORATIVE RESEARCH NETWORK-CRN STATUS. EDUARDO M. BANUS 4 6/7/2004 4:29 PM 2. Students A survey about the students’ involvement in the CRN program has been undertaken in each CRN project and, as a result, a general table has been created including the following information: undergraduate level (BSc.) and graduate level (MSc, PhD), CRN project in which the students are involved, their names, their nationalities, the year in which they started their activities in the projects, the funds they received from the projects, the institution in which they studied, and the year in which their theses were presented. At present the CRN initiative has benefited 429 students as follows: BSc = 161, MSc = 128, and PhD = 140. The students come from the majority of the IAI member countries. In the survey, it could also be noted the great number of educational institutions where these students have been studying, covering the majority of the institutions in the American continent and several from Europe. 3. Publications The table includes the following information: authors, titles, name of the publications, numbers, pages, year of the publications, and the CRN projects involved. This list includes only refereed publications and books and/or chapters of books about specific themes of the scientific agenda of the CRN projects. The publications cover the period 1999-2003. In this section you can see how many publications one CRN project has per year. The following table presents the total number of publications per year Year 1999= 17 Year 2000= 88 Year 2001= 102 Year 2002= 67 Year 2003= 24 4. Scientists and/or Institutions It is important to note how the number of scientists and/or institutions related to the CRN program has increased, taking as a reference the ones involved at the beginning of the projects. It is noteworthy how the number of researchers and institutions related to the projects have increased, to the extent that the PIs and Co-PIs have recently established relations with institutions and researchers of new countries such as: Switzerland, Spain, South Africa, Russia, Puerto Rico, Norway, Holland, Japan, Italy, Indonesia, Honduras, Ghana, Germany, France, Finland, Belgium, Barbados, Austria, and Australia, covering all the continents.

BANUS 5 6/7/2004 4:29 PM INTRODUCCIÓN El presente documento resume todo el relevamiento de datos realizado en los CRN en las siguientes áreas: 1. Fondos Adicionales y / o Paralelos 2. Estudiantes 3. Publicaciones 4. Científicos y / o Instituciones Los resultados obtenidos en estos cuatro temas demuestran claramente que la puesta en marcha de los CRN ha contribuido a la formación de una red de instituciones, científicos, estudiantes y recursos financieros. 1. Fondos Adicionales y / Paralelos Son todos aquellos recursos financieros que los PI`s y COPI`s han informado a través de sus reportes científicos anuales de avance y que están relacionadas con las actividades de cada CRN, y en muchos de los casos se han obtenido poniendo a los CRN como la actividad aglutinante de contraparte. A la fecha de preparado el presente documento estos Fondos Adicionales y / o Paralelos ascendían a la suma de U$S 20.760.113. Estos fondos están distribuidos según cada CRN a saber: • CRN 001 – Holm Tiessen U$S 4.277.439 • CRN 003 – Brian Luckman U$S 1.969.889 • CRN 009 – Charles Wood U$S 2.693.994 • CRN 012 – Osvaldo Sala U$S 390.194 • CRN 026 – Maria Vernet U$S 1.091.694 • CRN 031 – Allan Lavell U$S 361.320 • CRN 038 – Pilar Cornejo U$S 110.100 • CRN 040 – Juan Silva U$S 301.999 • CRN 047 – Michael McClain U$S 2.029.996 • CRN 048 – Ulises Confalonieri U$S 265.208 • CRN 055 – Mario Núñez U$S 2.753.387 • CRN 061 – Edmo Campos U$S 2.688.197 • CRN 062 – Tim Baumgartner U$S 1.172.496 • CRN 073 – Victor Magaña U$S 654.200 Surge del análisis del origen de los fondos que los organismos de Ciencia y Tecnología de los países miembros del IAI participan en la mayoría de los casos. Sin embargo con el avance de los CRN se han sumado otras instituciones, fundaciones y países fuera del continente. Ej. Unión Europea, Francia, Alemania, UNDP, GEF, Banco Mundial, Red Latinoamérica de Botánica, etc. EC - COP MEETING – BUENOS AIRES, ARGENTINA. COLLABORATIVE RESEARCH NETWORK-CRN STATUS. EDUARDO M. BANUS 6 6/7/2004 4:29 PM Es importante destacar que ninguno de los fondos adicionales y / o paralelos pasa físicamente por el IAI, sino que son subsidios que reciben los investigadores y / o instituciones relacionadas con los proyectos CRN. También es posible hacer un seguimiento de estos fondos por país de origen, viendo como estos se distribuyen por institución. 2. Estudiantes Se ha realizado un relevamiento en cada CRN, confeccionándose una tabla general que incluye: nivel (BSc, MSc, PhD), proyecto CRN donde participo, nombre del estudiante, nacionalidad, año de inicio de las actividades junto al proyecto CRN, fondos que recibió de apoyo del CRN, institución donde estudio y año de presentación de la tesis. Hasta el moento la iniciativa CRN ha favorecido a 429 estudiantes divididos en: BSc = 161; MSc= 128; PhD= 140 Estos estudiantes provienen de la mayoría de los países miembros del IAI. También se ha podido observar el gran numero de instituciones educativas donde estos estudiantes han desarrollado sus estudios, estas instituciones cubren la mayoría de las casas de estudio del continente americano y europeo. 3. Trabajos Publicados La tabla confeccionada reúne: autores, titulo del trabajo, nombre de la publicación, numero, paginas, año de publicación y CRN correspondiente. Esta lista solo contiene publicaciones con referato y libros y / capítulos de libros sobre temas específicos de la agenda científica de los CRN`s. Las publicaciones cubren el periodo de 1999 hasta el 2003. En esta sección se puede hacer un seguimiento por cada CRN de cuantas publicaciones han realizado por año. La siguiente tabla presenta el total de publicaciones por año Año 1999= 17 Año 2000= 88 Año 2001= 102 Año 2002= 67 Año 2003= 24 4.

    February 14, 2018 The Honorable Ricardo Rosselló Governor La Fortaleza P.O. Box 9020082 San Juan, PR 00902-0082 Dear Governor Rosselló, I write as president of the American Statistical Association to respectfully urge you to keep Puerto Rico’s statistical agency, El Instituto de Estadísticas de Puerto Rico (Puerto Rico Institute of Statistics, PRIS), and its board of directors fully independent. I also draw your attention to the 2,800 individuals—and still growing—who have signed a petition with this same request.1 At this critical historical juncture, Puerto Rico needs accurate, objective, and timely statistics. Government statistics empower the economy, serve the health and welfare of citizens, improve governance, and inform decisions and policies in the public and private sectors, among many other vital functions. Government statistics are also fundamental to evidence-based policymaking, the engagement of which is on a rapid rise in local, state, and federal governments. To address the challenges posed by its decade-long economic recession and the devastation of back-to-back hurricanes, Puerto Rico must chart its path toward sustainable recovery using reputable and reliable data and statistical methods. Because of their broad and profound importance, it is imperative that government statistics be produced through rigorous scientific processes and analyses performed by experts that can function without improper outside influence. Government statistics must be independent, objective, accurate, and timely and be perceived as such. It is just as important to have adequate statistics on a variety of topics. PRIS has demonstrated repeatedly it has the expertise to function independently to produce rigorous, objective, and accurate statistics for the benefit of Puerto Rico and its people.

  • Polio in Italy
    Polio in Italy Bernardino Fantini (*) (*) Institute for the History of Medicine and Health, University of Geneva. [email protected] Dynamis Fecha de recepción: 23 de enero de 2012 [0211-9536] 2012; 32 (2): 329-359 Fecha de aceptación: 5 de marzo de 2012 SUMMARY: 1.—Introduction. 2.—The epidemiology of polio in Italy. 3.—The social and scientific reactions to the polio epidemics. 4.—The 1958 epidemics. 5.—The different actors. 6.—The vaccination campaign and the elimination of the disease. 7.—Changing attitudes in patients and the public. 8.—The origins of patient’s associations. 9.—The post-epidemic problems. The post-polio syndrome. 10.—Concluding remarks. ABSTRACT: The history of polio in Italy is relatively short because the particular social and demographic history of the country has actually compressed the most dramatic history of the polio epidemic into only 40 years, from the first severe epidemic just before World War II to the early 1980s, when the epidemic vanished thanks to an effective and country-wide vaccination campaign. The epidemic, however, had a formidable impact on medicine, public health, social attitudes and culture. An analysis of this case study can illustrate the impact of an epidemic of a severe disease on individual and collective life, and at the same time the efficacy of public health measures against it, and the importance of the social structure, state and private, in coping with the consequences of the epidemics. In this period, the attitude towards the handicapped changed from stigma and isolation to social integration, thanks especially to the changes in health legislation, social action and the initiatives of the patient’ associations.

  • Annual Report of the Special Rapporteur
    CHAPTER II ASSESSMENT OF THE CURRENT STATE OF FREEDOM OF EXPRESSION IN THE HEMISPHERE A. Introduction. Methodology 1. This Chapter describes certain aspects related to the current state of freedom of expression in the Americas. It includes, as did previous reports, a table summarizing cases in which journalists were murdered in 2002, the circumstances surrounding their deaths, the possible motives of the killers, and the status of investigations. 2. To facilitate the description of the specific situation in each country, the Rapporteur classified the various methods used to curtail the right to freedom of expression and information. All of these methods are incompatible with the Principles on Freedom of Expression adopted by the Inter-American Commission on Human Rights (IACHR). The list includes, in addition to murder, other forms of aggression such as threats, detention, judicial actions, intimidation, censorship, and legislation restricting freedom of expression. The Chapter also includes, for certain countries, positive developments, such as the passing of access to information laws, the abolition of desacato (contempt of authority) in one country of the hemisphere and the existence of bills or judicial decisions conducive to full exercise of freedom of expression. 3. The data in this Chapter correspond to 2002. The Office of the Special Rapporteur for Freedom of Expression receives information on freedom of expression-related developments from a number of different sources.16 Once the Office has received the information, and bearing in mind the importance of the matter at hand, it begins the verification and analysis process. Once that task is completed, the information is grouped under the aforementioned headings.

  • CHAPTER I – Bloody Saturday………………………………………………………………
    THE PENNSYLVANIA STATE UNIVERSITY SCHREYER HONORS COLLEGE DEPARTMENT OF JOURNALISM ITALIAN WHITE-COLLAR CRIME IN THE GLOBALIZATION ERA RICCARDO M. GHIA Spring 2010 A thesis submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for a baccalaureate degree in Journalism with honors in Journalism Reviewed and approved by Russell Frank Associate Professor Honors Adviser Thesis Supervisor Russ Eshleman Senior Lecturer Second Faculty Reader ABSTRACT At the beginning of the 2000s, three factories in Asti, a small Italian town, went broke and closed in quick succession. Hundreds of men were laid off. After some time, an investigation mounted by local prosecutors began to reveal what led to bankruptcy. A group of Italian and Spanish entrepreneurs organized a scheme to fraudulently bankrupt their own factories. Globalization made production more profitable where manpower and machinery are cheaper. A well-planned fraudulent bankruptcy would kill three birds with one stone: disposing of non- competitive facilities, fleecing creditors and sidestepping Italian labor laws. These managers hired a former labor union leader, Silvano Sordi, who is also a notorious “fixer.” According to the prosecutors, Sordi bribed prominent labor union leaders of the CGIL (Italian General Confederation of Labor), the major Italian labor union. My investigation shows that smaller, local scandals were part of a larger scheme that led to the divestments of relevant sectors of the Italian industry. Sordi also played a key role in many shady businesses – varying from awarding bogus university degrees to toxic waste trafficking. My research unveils an expanded, loose network that highlights the multiple connections between political, economic and criminal forces in the Italian system.

    ARAB TIMES, TUESDAY, JUNE 29, 2021 16 Spain’s Cesar Azpilicueta, (right), scored against Croatia during the Euro 2020 soccer championship round of 16 match between Croatia and Spain, at Parken stadium in Copenhagen, Denmark. (AP) Sports Latest sports scores at — http://sports.arabtimesonline.com Hazard scores winning goal as top-ranked team reach quarters Belgium keep Ronaldo in check, end Portugal title defense SEVILLE, Spain, June 28, (AP): Bel- gium stopped Cristiano Ronaldo on one end, and had just enough attacking power on the other. The top-ranked Belgians held Ron- aldo scoreless and held onto a fi rst-half lead to beat Portugal 1-0 and advance to the quarterfi nals of the European Championship. Ronaldo, who threw his captain’s armband to the ground in de- spair after the fi nal whistle, is still one goal shy of becom- ing the all- time men’s top scorer in inter- national soccer. He came into the match tied Hazard with former Iran striker Ali Daei at 109 goals. Belgium, which have never before won a major soccer title, will next face Italy on Friday in Munich. Belgium’s potent attack, led by Kevin De Bruyne, Eden Hazard and Romelu Lukaku, also struggled, but Thorgan Hazard scored the winning goal in the 42nd minute with a swerv- ing shot from outside the area. Portu- gal goalkeeper Rui Patrício was left wrong-footed and was late to swat the ball away. Belgium played most of the second half without De Bruyne, who had to be substituted after being tackled from Belgium’s Thomas Vermaelen, (left), and Portugal’s Cristiano Ronaldo challenge for the ball during the Euro 2020 soccer championship round of 16 match between Belgium and Portugal at the behind and injuring his left ankle.
