‘ ’ Doing well by doing good ’ ’ How businesses use social issues as marketing tool

Gucci is widely recognized as one of the most influential luxury fashion brands on earth. The brand is progressive and could be classified as social activist. This socially engaged profile appeals to the contemporary consumer, who increasingly values morally sound conduct. Companies like Gucci use cause-related marketing campaigns to moralize themselves, campaigns which heavily appeal to the consumers’ emotion. This thesis examines the relationship which moralization and cause-related marketing have with social issues, like the inclusion of minorities or LGBT+ rights. Previous academic work has questioned the use of cause-related marketing and moralizing values, as they could exploit the emotions of consumers. Additionally, cause-related marketing campaigns often depict the pain and anguish of the Other – another questionable practice, according to scholarship. Gucci makes use of all these aforementioned theories and concepts: it markets itself as morally acceptable, by infusing its communication with values of progression and social justice. Therefore, research question which this paper answers is how does Gucci construct and communicate about ‘achieving change’? This paper unravels Gucci communication and how it is crafted: which messages are sent and how does this relate to scholarship. This is examined by using a qualitative thematic analysis on two of Gucci’s online platforms: CHIME FOR CHANGE and Gucci Equilibrium. In total, 40 webpages are studied, 20 of either platform. In total, 40 texts and 148 images are examined in this paper. The results indicate that Gucci wants to be seen as morally superior to competitors in the industry. Being morally acceptable is part of their marketing plan, which they achieve by taking an activist stance towards social issues. They foster empowerment, advocate for minorities and want a diverse corporate culture – fostering progression and social change seems evident. However, the thesis also reveals serious worries regarding Gucci’s communication, which correlates with literature about marketing and distant suffering. Firstly, evidence emerges which questioned Gucci’s honest intentions about progression. It highlights a commonly heard critique regarding marketing, its manipulative characteristics. ‘Doing good’ might merely be a tool to increase profitability. Secondly, the inclusion of suffering in marketing practices is questionable, as it exploits those witnessing pain, and those in pain. This paper highlights the dangers or causerelated marketing, and how moralisation and the inclusion of social values might damage charities. Currently, there are little to no papers which examine the relationship between marketing and distant suffering, a spectacle which this paper investigated. The thesis shares new insights into marketing’s relationship with pain and other emotions, an affiliation which still needs further investigation – especially after his inquiry.

THE ROLE OF CORRUPTION IN FINANCIAL DEVELOPMENT-FOREIGN DIRECT INVESTMENT NEXUS IN SUB- SAHARAN AFRICAN COUNTRIES

The study adopted control of corruption as a moderating variable in FD-FDI nexus in SubSaharan African countries. This was due to mixed results between FD and FDI in literature. Data from 49 SSA economies over the 1996–2016 periods were used. The results from the System GMM concluded that financial development cannot cause foreign direct investment in isolation but requires control of corruption in Sub – Saharan Africa. Therefore, the study suggests that Sub – Saharan African economies should put appropriate measures (such as revising the remunerations of government workers in order to discourage corruption, making sure the laws in these countries give adequate punishment to those who engage in corrupt activities in order to deter people from corruption, reviewing the constitutions to enable the suggestions given above and other existing law that fight corruption to be successfully implemented and finally, agencies and institutions that check corruption should be double checked so that they will not practice corruption) should be put in place in order to control corruption which would in turn empower financial development to influence foreign direct investment.
A cross sectional study of acute myocardial infarction in young individuals below 40 years and associated risk factors in Mandya institute of medical sciences, Mandya, Karnataka

Background: Acute coronary syndrome (ACS) is a potentially life‑threatening condition which is more common in elderly people, and young are relatively protected. Its incidence in young Indians is about 12-16%. Currently, the protective effect on young from coronary artery disease (CAD) is taken away by several risk factors. The aim of this study is to determine the conventional and new emerging risk factors like hyperhomocysteinemia and lipoprotein a (Lp [a]) which are suggested to play an important role in myocardial infarction (MI). Methods : This study was a hospital‑based retrospective cross‑sectional analytical study involving 61 patients aged ≤40years presented with signs and symptoms of ACS confirmed by ECG changes and cardiac enzyme levels admitted in the cardiac ICU from April 2019 to March 2020. Results: Although ACS is a less common entity in young adults aged ≤40 years, smoking was the most common cause of the MI (75%) in young adults. Homocysteine and Lp (a) should be measured in young MI patients. Smoking cessation and prevention of diabetes and hypertension (HTN) should be encouraged. Conclusions: Smoking was the most common cause of the MI (75%) in young adults and is the major modifiable risk factor for MI in very young patients which needs strict prevention. Young patients with CAD were mainly males. There is a need for early detection of a risk factor to prevent the progression of ACS,
Switching the O-O Bond Formation Pathways of Ru-pda Water Oxidation Catalyst by Third Coordination Sphere Engineering

Water oxidation is a vital anodic reaction for renewable fuel generation via electrochemical- and photoelectrochemical-driven water splitting or CO2 reduction. Ruthenium complexes, such as Ru-bda family, have been shown as highly efficient water-oxidation catalysts (WOCs), particularly when they undergo a bimolecular O-O bond formation pathway. In this study, a novel Ru(pda)-type (pda2– =1,10-phenanthroline-2,9-dicarboxylate) molecular WOC with 4-vinylpyridine axial ligands was immobilized on the glassy carbon electrode surface by electrochemical polymerization. Electrochemical kinetic studies revealed that this homocoupling polymer catalyzes water oxidation through a bimolecular radical coupling pathway, where interaction between two Ru(pda)–oxyl moieties (I2M) forms the O-O bond. The calculated barrier of the I2M pathway by density-functional theory (DFT) is significantly lower than the barrier of a water nucleophilic attack (WNA) pathway. By using this polymerization strategy, the Ru centers are brought closer in the distance, and the O-O bond formation pathway by the Ru (pda) catalyst is switched from WNA in a homogeneous molecular catalytic system to I2M in the polymerized film, providing some deep insights into the importance of third coordination sphere engineering of the water oxidation catalyst.
Strengthening the voices of human rights defenders in the media A case study on addressing sorcery accusation-related violence in Papua

Civil society and human rights defenders in Papua New Guinea have played an important role in bringing about legislative changes with regard to domestic and sorcery accusation related violence in recent years. Their insights in understanding how to address complex issues at the community level when accusations occur have also proven crucial to keeping people safe and providing processes to hold perpetrators accountable. However, the mainstream media has rarely reported on their stories and included their voices in the reporting of sorcery accusation related violence. They have focused on exposing the problem, often by showcasing the horrific nature of some of the crimes related to accusations, instead of further investigating possible solutions. In this article we explore our work with human rights defenders to capture their experiences around sorcery accusations and violence and provide ways to bring their stories into the mainstream media. In particular, we explore questions around the ethics of representation when it comes to reporting human rights abuses and violence and suggest alternative ways of reporting.

An Exploration of Classroom-related Sources of Foreign Language Speaking Anxiety of Pakistani University Students

Foreign language anxiety is a distinct variable particular to language learning and it has debilitative effects on the learning and production of language. The current study aims to explore the perspectives of Pakistani postgraduate non-major English language students specifically regarding classroom-related factors that may contribute to their speaking anxiety (SA). A questionnaire was administered to 170 students and aiming to find a more comprehensive explanation of their SA, 20 students were interviewed. Quantitative data were analyzed through SPSS while exploratory content analysis was followed to analyze the qualitative data. Findings highlight several classroom-related sources of SA namely; a formal classroom environment, oral tests, fear of negative evaluation, large classrooms, fear of being put on the spot, short time granted to formulate answers, and unfamiliarity among classmates. The last four sources of SA have not been mentioned earlier in the field of SA. Implications and recommendations are offered for language teachers and material designers. Finally, recommendations for future studies are given.
VirFace: Enhancing Face Recognition via Unlabeled Shallow Data

Recently, how to exploit unlabeled data for training face recognition models has been attracting increasing attention. However, few works consider the unlabeled shallow data1 in real-world scenarios. The existing semi-supervised face recognition methods that focus on generating pseudo labels or minimizing softmax classification probabilities of the unlabeled data do not work very well on the unlabeled shallow data. It is still a challenge on how to effectively utilize the unlabeled shallow face data to improve the performance of face recognition. In this paper, we propose a novel face recognition method, named VirFace, to effectively exploit the unlabeled shallow data for face recognition. VirFace consists of VirClass and VirInstance. Specifically, VirClass enlarges the inter-class distance by injecting the unlabeled data as new identities, while VirInstance produces virtual instances sampled from the learned distribution of each identity to further enlarge the inter-class distance. To the best of our knowledge, we are the first to tackle the problem of unlabeled shallow face data. Extensive experiments have been conducted on both the small- and large-scale datasets, e.g. LFW and IJB-C, etc, demonstrating the superiority of the proposed method.
LABOR UNION AND THE COMPANY PERFORMANCE : INDUSTRIAL CONFLICT

Today many conflicts arise that lead to destructive conditions concerning industrial relations, including conflict between the workers as a key element of the production and the entrepreneur as the owner of capital. Many workers demands against their rights to entrepreneurs who cannot be packed in containers appropriate mediation so that not infrequently lead to greater conflict. Frame of mind in this study based on the fact that the management of conflicts in industrial relations requires the involvement of all stakeholders in the organization. Support regulations and policies are also strongly demanded that the conflict can be managed properly in order to achieve a favorable climate objective so that employees can work optimally in order to achieve organizational goals through the organization’s culture. Organizational culture is very important role in supporting the creation of an effective organization. There are certain characteristics as forming an organizational culture that is used in this research is focused on the culture of quality. This study aims to map the factors related to conflict management in particular industrial worker organization’s involvement in shaping the culture of the organization in conflict management. This study uses a qualitative research design with a case study approach where the analysis of this research is done inductively. The design of this study refers to the model cycle of Kemmis and M. Taggart (1998) with four stages, namely: 1) preparation, 2) the implementation phase, 3) the stage of monitoring, and 4) the stage of reflection. The role of labor union organizations to be very important in determining management policies. The union becomes a container in delivering the aspirations of employees that are part contribution to the company’s employees. Union organization is able to manage conflict are expected to be part of the motor of the company’s progress. Proven in some respects in accordance with the results of the research, the union was able to resolve conflicts without weakening partly conflicting parties. In running the organization, cultivate union members to work together and form solidarity among its members. Behaviors and habits that is expected to shape the culture of the organization mature and become a strong foundation for the progress of the company.
NUTRITIONAL VALUE OF SOME RARE FORAGE PLANTS FED TO SMALL RUMINANTS

<p><strong>Background:</strong> There are some plants in the global rangelands whose nutritional value is still unknown to animal nutritionists. <strong>Objective:</strong> This study aimed to evaluate the <em>in vitro</em> value of some rare plants including <em>Marrubium vulgare</em> L. , <em>Ceratocarpus arenarius </em>L. , <em>Gypsophila paniculate </em>L. , <em>Ferula gummosa </em>Boiss. , and <em>Centaurea virgate</em> Lam. that are consumed by livestock. <strong>Methodology:</strong> The fresh samples were collected from Iran about mid-June, after the flowering stage. Buffering capacity, chemical and mineral compounds of plants were determined according to the standard methods. An <em>in vitro</em> media was also used to measure some fermentation parameters. <strong>Results:</strong> There were significant differences in chemical composition and mineral contents among the plants. The higher CP content was found in <em>M. vulgare</em> (173.8 g kg<sup>-1</sup> DM) and <em>C. arenarius</em> (140.1 g kg<sup>-1</sup> DM), respectively. The lowest ADF (166.6 g kg<sup>-1</sup> DM)‌, NDF (294.9 g kg<sup>-1</sup> DM), and ADL (74.9 g kg<sup>-1</sup> DM) contents were recorded in <em>M. vulgare</em>. <em>‌C. arenarius</em> exhibited the lowest DMD (473.3 g kg<sup>-1</sup> DM), ME (4.12 MJ kg<sup>-1</sup> DM), RFV (99.46), and gas volume at 24 h (13.57 ml) which were significantly different from all other plant species. The calcium content ranged from 18.15 for <em>C. virgata</em> to 37.62 g kg<sup>-1</sup> DM for <em>G. paniculata</em>. The highest Na (0.64 g kg<sup>-1</sup> DM), K (24.60 g kg<sup>-1</sup> DM), Co (3.07 mg kg<sup>-1</sup> DM), and Fe (756.53 mg kg<sup>-1</sup> DM) were observed in <em>M. vulgare</em>. With the addition of <em>G. paniculata</em> to the culture medium, a noticeable increase in TVFA (40.65 mM L<sup>-1</sup>) concentration was observed. The highest acid-base buffering capacity was obtained in <em>G. paniculata</em> (191.64 mEq×10<sup>-3</sup>). Inclusion of <em>C. virgata</em> gave significantly higher acetate (64.07%) and butyrate (14.83%) concentration and lower propionate (19.17%) concentration in the culture medium. <strong>Implications:</strong> The available data can take into account in preparing a balanced diet, especially for sheep grazing in the pasture. Due to the secondary metabolites, the forage value of these plants should also be evaluated in the form of <em>in vivo</em> experiments with long-term experiment periods. <strong>Conclusion:</strong> According to the <em>in vitro</em> results, when these plants are fed together with a diversity of good quality forage, they can provide part of the nutrient requirement for small ruminant in Iran. </p>

The results showed that there is a significant difference found among all the groups.
Perceptual study of timing variables in F0 peaks

This paper is concerned with the role of alignment and peak shape of F0 peaks in the perception of intonational categories. The term intonation is restricted to speech melody. Several experiments on early and medial peaks in German show that both dimensions are relevant in this intonational contrast, mirroring the findings for comparable intonational contrasts in other languages. Hence, my findings support the assumption that all these intonational contrasts originate from a common psychophonetic mechanism which is linked to holistic contours rather than to its local features.
Intermodality and Multilingual Re-instantiation: Joint Construction in Bilingual Genre Pedagogy

This paper discusses the roles of intermodality and multilingualism in a genre pedagogy program aimed to improve students’ literacy in Indonesia. It draws on data from an intervention program which extended the Reading to Learn (R2L) genre-based literacy pedagogy to embed English literacy learning in biology lessons for Indonesian junior high school students. This bilingual R2L program is innovative in that it involves the use of written and spoken Bahasa Indonesia and English for both teaching materials and instruction. This particular study focuses on the final stage of the program: The collaborative writing process known as joint construction. This is conducted in the bilingual R2L program by jointly making notes from Indonesian (L1) reading texts, jointly re-instantiating these notes as English (L2) lexis, and then using these L2 notes to jointly construct new L2 texts. The methodology is thus intermodal and multilingual, from written L1 texts, through oral dictation to L1 notes, then through bilingual discussion to re-instantiation as written L2 lexis, and finally through further bilingual discussion to re-instantiation as written L2 text. The study applies genre and register theory to closely examine classroom interactions in Joint Construction, from the perspectives of their structuring, the intermodal sourcing of meanings, and relations between teachers and learners. Evidence from student assessments suggest these designed applications of intermodality and multilingual reinstantiation are highly effective in the development of autonomous skills in L2 science writing. This article aims to describe how and why they are so effective.

While parasite infection can have substantial fitness consequences in organisms, the predictors of parasite prevalence and intensity are often complex and vary depending on the host species. Here, we examined correlates of Haemoproteus (a common malaria parasite) prevalence and intensity in an opportunistically breeding songbird, the red crossbill (Loxia curvirostra). Specifically, we quantified Haemoproteus prevalence and intensity in crossbills caught in the Grand Teton National Park from 2010 to 2013. We found that parasite prevalence varies seasonally and across years, with the highest number of infected individuals occurring in the summer, although there was variation across summers sampled, and that prevalence was positively related to annual mean cone crop sizes (a measure of crossbill food abundance) and daily ambient temperature (a correlate of vector abundance). Parasite intensity was significantly and positively related to one measure of innate immunity, leucocyte counts per blood volume. Finally, neither crossbill age, ecomorph, nor sex had significant effects on parasite infection intensity; however, parasite prevalence did significantly vary among ecomorph and age classes. These results support the interpretation that a combination of physiological (specifically immune activity) and environmental factors affects parasite prevalence and infection intensity in this opportunistically breeding avian species.
