TL;DR: Results support models of emotional labor suggesting that surface and deep acting causally precede individual and organizational well-being.
Abstract: Models of emotional labor suggest that emotional labor leads to strain and affects job performance. Although the link between emotional labor, strain, and performance has been well documented in cross-sectional field studies, not much is known about the causal direction of relationships between emotional labor, strain, and performance. Goal of the present study was therefore to test the direction of effects in a two-wave longitudinal panel study using a sample of 151 trainee teachers. Longitudinal lagged effects were tested using structural equation modeling. Results revealed that the emotional labor strategy of surface acting led to increases in subsequent strain while deep acting led to increases in job performance. In contrast, there was no indication of reverse causation: Neither strain nor job performance had a significant lagged effect on subsequent surface or deep acting. Overall, results support models of emotional labor suggesting that surface and deep acting causally precede individual and organizational well-being.

TL;DR: Properties of the H2-forming methylenetetrahydromethanopterin dehydrogenase from Methanobacterium wolfei are described indicating that the enzyme from this methanogenic archaeon is very similar to the enzymes from M. thermoautotrophicum with respect both to molecular and catalytic properties.
Abstract: A novel hydrogenase has recently been found in methanogenic archaea. It catalyzes the reversible dehydrogenation of methylenetetrahydromethanopterin (CH2 = H4MPT) to methenyltetrahydromethanopterin (CH identical to H4MPT+) and H2 and was therefore named H2-forming methylenetetrahydromethanopterin dehydrogenase. The hydrogenase, which is composed of only one polypeptide with an apparent molecular mass of 43 kDa, does not mediate the reduction of viologen dyes with either H2 or CH2 = H4MPT. We report here that the purified enzyme from Methanobacterium thermoautotrophicum exhibits the following other unique properties: (a) the colorless protein with a specific activity of 2000 U/mg (Vmax) did not contain iron-sulfur clusters, nickel, or flavins; (b) the activity was not inhibited by carbon monoxide, acetylene, nitrite, cyanide, or azide; (c) the enzyme did not catalyze an isotopic exchange between 3H2 and 1H+; (d) the enzyme catalyzed the reduction of CH identical to H4MPT+ with 3H2 generating [methylene-3H]CH2 = H4MPT; and (e) the primary structure contained at most four conserved cysteines as revealed by a comparison of the DNA-deduced amino acid sequence of the proteins from M. thermoautotrophicum and Methanopyrus kandleri. None of the four cysteines were closely spaced as would be indicative for a (NiFe) hydrogenase or a ferredoxin-type iron-sulfur protein. Properties of the H2-forming methylenetetrahydromethanopterin dehydrogenase from Methanobacterium wolfei are also described indicating that the enzyme from this methanogenic archaeon is very similar to the enzyme from M. thermoautotrophicum with respect both to molecular and catalytic properties.

TL;DR: In this article, the applicability of fluid dynamics to quantify the size of corresponding dissipative effects was discussed, and it was shown that for too early initialization of the hydrodynamic evolution, or for too high transverse momentum in the final state, the expected dissipative corrections are too large for a fluid description to be reliable.
Abstract: Recent discussions of RHIC data emphasized the exciting possibility that the matter produced in nucleus-nucleus collisions shows properties of a near-perfect fluid. Here, we aim at delineating the applicability of fluid dynamics, which is needed to quantify the size of corresponding dissipative effects. We start from the equations for dissipative fluid dynamics, which we derive from kinetic theory up to second order (Israel-Stewart theory) in a systematic gradient expansion. In model studies, we then establish that for too early initialization of the hydrodynamic evolution (${\ensuremath{\tau}}_{0}\ensuremath{\lesssim}1\phantom{\rule{0.3em}{0ex}}\mathrm{fm}/c$) or for too high transverse momentum (${p}_{T}\ensuremath{\lesssim}1$ GeV) in the final state, the expected dissipative corrections are too large for a fluid description to be reliable. Moreover, viscosity-induced modifications of hadronic transverse momentum spectra can be accommodated to a significant degree in an ideal fluid description by modifications of the decoupling stage. We argue that these conclusions, drawn from model studies, can also be expected to arise in significantly more complex, realistic fluid dynamics simulations of heavy ion collisions.

TL;DR: The strongest predictors of self-reported aggressive parenting behaviors toward the child were guardians' own experiences of childhood maltreatment, followed by female guardians' victimization experiences in their intimate relationship and male guardians' posttrautmatic stress disorder symptoms and alcohol-related problems.

TL;DR: This review summarizes the development of solar powered bio-H2 production processes based on the conversion of photosynthetic products by fermentative bacteria, as well as using photoheterotrophic and photoautrophic organisms.
Abstract: The rapid development of clean fuels for the future is a critically important global challenge for two main reasons. First, new fuels are needed to supplement and ultimately replace depleting oil reserves. Second, fuels capable of zero CO2 emissions are needed to slow the impact of global warming. This review summarizes the development of solar powered bio-H2 production processes based on the conversion of photosynthetic products by fermentative bacteria, as well as using photoheterotrophic and photoautrophic organisms. The use of advanced bioreactor systems and their potential and limitations in terms of process design, efficiency, and cost are also briefly reviewed.
