A STUDY ON THE SKILLS GAP ANALYSIS IN THE JORDANIAN TOURISM SECTOR

According to the national development plans, the Jordanian tourism sector needs to be updated in order to meet international qualitative standards. To achieve this goal, one of the expected actions to be undertaken is the definition and the implementation of innovative professional profiles that should be integrated within the whole supply chain, and the updating of the related study plans. In order to address this demand, the research aimed to produce a skills gap analysis of the Jordanian tourism, hospitality, and heritage education system, which should highlight sets of innovative and underdeveloped skills for the tackled sectors, and the relative academic paths. The research also aimed to understand the actual offering of the Jordanian education system and to compare it with the requirements of the labor market. Although different plans have been developed, their implementation is still not fully exploited to achieve the desired transformation of the reference sector. By exploiting mixed research techniques, both quantitative and qualitative, it has been possible to understand the actual offering of the Jordanian education system and to compare it with the requirements of the labor market: these activities represent the needed basis to produce the demanded skills gap analysis, which is also part of this contribution.
Modern approaches to cervical cancer screening (a review)

The aim – systematization of data from modern scientific sources and own knowledge and experience regarding the problems, advantages and prospects of the development of various methods of diagnosing pathological conditions of the cervix. The relevance of the problem of cervical cancer is beyond doubt, which is confirmed by the annual data of the official statistics and recommendations of WHO, European experts and relevant national recommendations. The analysis and generalization of information from the specialized literature regarding the assessment of problems and prospects for the development of leading methods of cervical screening in order to reduce the number of cervical cancer cases in the world is a priority task of the expert society. Currently, the most recommended approach to cervical screening is to combine HPV testing with cytology but separate testing for HPV is the most promising. Colposcopy remains the only confirmatory method of diagnosing cervical pathology, subject to mandatory cervical biopsy and histopathological examination of the biopsy. Standardization of classifications and terminology in the assessment of cytological, histopathological and colposcopic conclusions will allow to reach an understanding in the issues of optimal management tactics for patients with cervical pathology. Conclusions. Diagnosis of high-risk carcinogenic types of human papillomavirus is the most promising method of cervical screening in the near future. At the same time, at the moment, we consider it appropriate to use the cytology together with HPV testing, at least as a sorting method. Standardization of cytological/histopathological terminology should be done in accordance with the Bethesda 2014 system update.

Spore germination assay reaveled that increse in the extract concenetration decrese the spore germination. The results revealed that Mentha longifolia chemical composition might be build up as latent bio- fungicides against plant pathogenic fungi.
Time development in open quantum systems

The purpose of this thesis is to examine the temporal evolution of open quantum systems, and to give the reader an introduction to this eld. We will discuss why this can not be treated in the same manor as the evolution of closed systems, and I will provide an overview of some of the alternatives. In particular it will be emphasized that some of these have a non-Markovian character while others are Markovian. We will discuss the conditions under which these descriptions may be applied, and they will be illustrated using two very simple models of open systems: an open two-level system and an open harmonic oscillator. These models will also be used to illustrate particular characteristics that open systems have relative to closed ones, such as decay, damping, heating and decoherence.
Continuously tunable topological pump in high-dimensional cold atomic gases

Controllability of ultracold atomic gases has reached an unprecedented level, allowing for experimental realization of the long-sought-after Thouless pump, which can be interpreted as a dynamical quantum Hall effect. On the other hand, Weyl semimetals and Weyl nodal-line semimetals with touching points and rings in band structures have sparked tremendous interest in various fields in the past few years. Here, we show that dynamical Weyl points and dynamical four-dimensional (4D) Weyl nodal rings, which are protected by the first Chern number on a parameter surface formed by quasimomentum and time, emerge in a two-dimensional and three-dimensional system, respectively. We find that these dynamical topological gapless phenomena lead to a topological pump and the amount of pumped particles is not quantized and can be continuously tuned by controlling experimental parameters over a wide range, in stark contrast with the Thouless pump with quantized transport, which does not allow for such continuous tuning. We also propose an experimental scheme to realize the dynamical Weyl points and dynamical 4D Weyl nodal rings and to observe their corresponding topological pump in cold atomic gases.
YIELD AND LAND EQUIVALENT RATIO OF INTERCROPPING MAIZE WITH EGYPTIAN COTTON

Mixed cropping is a system of agriculture that involves planting two or more crops simultaneously in the same field. A two year study was conducted at Giza Agric. Exp. & Res. Sta. , Fac. of Agric. , Cairo Univ., Egypt, during 2011 and 2012 summer seasons to increase yields of maize and cotton, as well as, famer's benefit. Mixed intercropping pattern (120 cm ridge width) was used in this study for growing both crops, maize plants were distributed in four plants per hill spacing at 70 cm of middle of ridge after one month of growing cotton, whereas, cotton plants were sown in both sides of ridges by growing two plants per hill distanced at 20 cm apart, in addition to solid plantings of both crops. Two Egyptian cotton varieties Giza 80 and Giza 86, as well as, one maize variety S.C. 30k08 were used. Three maize treatments (harvesting maize for grains, defoliation of maize at 100 days from sowing maize and harvesting maize for silage at 90 days age) were used under intercropping and solid plantings. A split-split plot arrangement in randomized complete block design was used. Cropping systems were distributed at main plots, whereas, cotton varieties and maize treatments were allotted in sub and sub – sub plots, respectively. For cotton plants under intercropping, shading of adjacent maize plants affected negatively number of open bolls per plant, seed cotton yields per plant and per ha. Cotton cultivar Giza 80 had higher values of number of open bolls per plant, seed cotton yields per plant and per ha in a comparison with the other. Harvested maize plants for silage caused significant increments in number of open bolls/plant, seed cotton yields per plant and ha by 7.69, 13.36 and 11.97 percent, respectively, as compared with intercropped cotton plants with harvested maize plants for grains. The studied cotton traits were affected by the interaction between cropping systems and maize treatments only. Intercropping maize with cotton decreased number of ears per plant, grain yields per plant and per ha as compared with recommended solid planting of maize. Intercropping decreased grain yields caused significant reduction in grain yield per ha by about 22.13% as compared with recommended solid planting of maize. Intercropping maize with cotton increased LER as compared to solid plantings of both crops. LER ranged from 1.45 to 1.98 with an average of 1.69. Net return of intercropping maize with cotton was varied between treatments from 475 to 936 € per ha as compared with recommended solid planting
MULTIVARIATE ANALYSIS OF POLYPHENOLIC CONTENT AND IN VITRO ANTIOXIDANT CAPACITIES OF DIFFERENT FRACTIONS OF LEPIDIUM SATIVUM L. AERIAL PARTS AND ROOTS FROM ALGERIA

Despite the great therapeutic and industrial values of Lepidium sativum L. , all scientific reports have mainly focused on studying its seeds. For the first time, the aim of this study is to determine the effects of extraction methods and solvents on the phenolic contents and the antioxidant capacity of Lepidium sativum L. aerial parts and roots. Different techniques such as maceration, Soxhlet and ultrasound-assisted extraction were applied. The antioxidant effects were examined by four tests; 2,2-diphenyl-1-picryl-hydrazyl-hydrate (DPPH), 2,2′-azino-bis(3-ethylbenzothiazoline-6-sulfonic acid (ABTS), reducing power and phenanthroline assays. The greatest content of total phenolic content was obtained for the methanolic fraction of aerial parts prepared by maceration while the chloroformic fraction of roots extracted by the Soxhlet gave the highest content of total flavonoids. L. sativum fractions demonstrated good antiradical and chelating activities. High-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) profiles revealed the presence of flavonoids, phenolic acids and other phenolic compounds. However, the fraction obtained by Soxhlet was the richest in bioactive compounds compared to that prepared by maceration. Multivariate analysis showed that L. sativum fractions belong to three distinct types in terms of their polyphenolic content and antioxidant activity.
“What Does It Take to Succeed Here?”: The Belief That Success Requires Brilliance Is an Obstacle to Diversity

Why are some fields and occupations more diverse than others? In this review, we describe a conceptual framework—the field-specific ability beliefs (FAB) model—that provides a promising answer to this question. This model proposes that gender and racial/ethnic imbalances in a field or occupation result in part from the confluence of two beliefs: (a) the belief that success in that context requires high levels of intellectual ability (“brilliance”) and (b) the cultural stereotype that associates intellectual ability with (White) men more than other groups. We describe the FAB model and detail evidence for it, including evidence that the beliefs at its core are present even among children. We conclude by highlighting open questions.
Social Media Addiction and Consequences in Adolescents First

Social media usage has become increasingly prevalent in adolescents, which contributes to proliferation of addictive behaviors around social media. Addiction of social media not only causes negative physical symptoms, it also brings negative psychological problems for adolescents. Excessive use of social media can result in poor sleeping quality, even insomnia, which is positively associated with having general anxiety disorder or depression. Insomnia, anxiety and depression can all be in the way of adolescents development in academic performance and social media functioning. Studying the adverse effects of social media addiction of adolescents is helpful for understanding the significance of scientifically controlling the time spent on social media for adolescents. Previous studies use cross-sectional design. However, longitudinal studies will be helpful in terms of understanding the long term effects of social media addiction. Also, previous studies seldom consider the interply between different consequences. The interaction between different consequences of social media addiction and how it affects the individual requires further investigation.

Response to Dion, Sumner, and Mitchell

The findings of Dion, Sumner, and Mitchell (2018) are striking: female political scientists are cited less frequently than are male political scientists, particularly when men are doing the citing. In addition, these patterns persist, although the gap is lessened, in fields where scholarship by women is more prevalent (such as gender and politics). All of this is troubling: citations are important not just for career outcomes but, more broadly, for determining which scholarship becomes field defining. Put simply, the findings in Dion, Sumner, and Mitchell (2018) imply that female scholars are at a long-term disadvantage in staking out their contributions to knowledge, and the study of politics is worse off for it. How can the discipline respond? First, a key finding of Dion, Sumner, and Mitchell (2018) is that “more gender diverse subfields and disciplines produce smaller gender citation gaps. ” This is an important starting point: although we cannot randomly assign women to subfields, we can certainly promote programs and interventions to encourage more women to both remain in political science and to consider and stay in subfields where they are less well represented. There are no easy shortcuts here. The onus is on departments, advisors, search committees, and individual scholars to address these imbalances at a fundamental level, making these subfields more welcoming to women. This includes investments not just at the graduate-school level, but as part of faculty hiring and retention and in the promotion of women in discipline-wide positions of leadership. Implicit in Dion, Sumner, and Mitchell (2018)’s argument is that women cannot be cited if they are not producing research in certain areas; not giving women the opportunity to succeed can only worsen the citation gap. This general “numbers” issue, however, does not address what individual authors and journal editors can do now to help combat the gender citation gap. Here, I consider three possible “blind spots. ” All of these represent possibilities for the profession to explore, using our discipline’s tools of data analysis and experimentation. These blind spots also plague all of us, giving individual scholars a key opportunity for self-reflection and action. The first “blind spot” involves the important moment when authors begin to explore the state of the literature. In terms of building a literature review, most authors tend to “go where they know,” starting with papers listed in graduate-school syllabi. However, as scholars have shown (e.g., Colgan 2017), syllabi themselves often suffer from lack of diversity. Individual faculty can nonetheless work to diversify syllabi. Jane Lawrence Sumner, for example, has developed an easy-to-use tool for checking the diversity of syllabi, and chairs and department heads can encourage its usemorewidely. Research also suggests that having a female professor can increase
First-principles phonon thermal transport in graphene: Effects of exchange-correlation and type of pseudopotential

First-principles calculations of the thermal conductivity of two-dimensional materials have recently attracted a great deal of attention. The choice of the exchange-correlation (XC) and pseudopotential (PP) is a crucial step towards an accurate first-principles calculation using density functional theory (DFT). This work investigates the sensitivity of the intrinsic thermal conductivity and phonon properties of graphene to the choice of XC and PP in the temperature range of 300–550 K, using first-principles DFT simulations and an iterative solution of the Boltzmann transport equation. We consider six XC-PP combinations (LDA-NC, LDA-US, PBEsol-US, LDA-PAW, PBE-PAW, and PBEsol-PAW). Our results showed that the choice of XC-PP combination results in significant discrepancies, in the range of 5442–8677 W m − 1 K − 1, among predicted thermal conductivities at room temperature. The LDA-NC and PBE-PAW combinations predicted the thermal conductivities in best agreement with available experimental data. The phonon properties revealed that these discrepancies are mainly due to variations in the prediction of phonon lifetimes and Gruneisen parameters from different XC-PP combinations.

Knowledge on Urinary Incontinence among Women in a Community at Barahachhetra, Nepal

Urinary Incontinence is a condition in which involuntary loss of urine is a social or hygienic problem for the patient. Urinary incontinence is regarded as a disgraceful situation, with a negative effect on the quality of life, and is usually kept disguised. It is an important problem leading to physical, social, psychological, sexual, and economic problems among women of all age groups. The aim of this study was to assess knowledge of urinary incontinence among women in a community at Barahachhetra. A descriptive study was conducted among women aged 40-65 years residing in Barahachhetra-5. A non-probability purposive sampling technique was used to gather data from 105 women using a semi-structured interview schedule with Face-to-face interviews. SPSS version 16 (SPSS Inc., Chicago, III., USA) was used for data entry and analysis. Descriptive analysis and inferential statistics i.e., chi-square test was used to find the association of the level of knowledge with selected demographic variables. This study revealed that out of 105 respondents, 21% had good knowledge and 59% had average knowledge on urinary incontinence which concluded that only less than one-fourth of respondents have good knowledge and the level of knowledge is not associated with selected demographic variables. It is recommended that awareness programs on urinary incontinence should be conducted at the community level by concerned authorities.
Flood susceptibility modeling of the Karnali river basin of Nepal using different machine learning approaches

Abstract The Karnali River Basin (KRB) comprises the longest river in Nepal, located south of the Himalayas. Despite its high susceptibility to floods, the basin lacks detailed studies. Proper floodplain management is essential to reduce the impacts due to rising flood frequency, magnitude, and severity aggravated by climate change. This research applies three machine learning techniques, Support Vector Machine (SVM), Random Forest (RF), and Artificial Neural Networks (ANN), to flood event data from the KRB. Ten flood conditioning factors; Aspect, curvature, distance to a river (DTR), normalized difference vegetation index (NDVI), elevation, slope, rainfall, soil, stream power index (SPI), and topographical wetness index (TWI) were selected based on the multicollinearity test. The parameter performance was evaluated using the Cohen Kappa Score, with NDVI having the greatest influence, followed by elevation, DTR, curvature, and TWI. Based on the Area Under the Curve of Receiver Operating Characteristics (AUROC), SVM outperformed RF, ANN, and ANN for FSM. The area of very high flood susceptible areas ranges from 0.8 to 2.5% of the basin area, most of them located in the south with low slopes and elevations. The results of this study suggest the use of SVM for FSM to help with proper floodplain management. Graphical Abstract
On periodic solutions in the non-dissipative Lorenz model: the role of the nonlinear feedback loop

Abstract In this study, we discuss the role of the linear heating term and nonlinear terms associated with a non-linear feedback loop in the energy cycle of the three-dimensional (X–Y–Z) non-dissipative Lorenz model (3D-NLM), where (X, Y, Z) represent the solutions in the phase space. Using trigonometric functions, we first present the closed-form solution of the nonlinear equation without the heating term (i.e. rX), (where τ is a non-dimensional time and r is the normalized Rayleigh number), a solution that has not been previously documented. Since the solution of the simplified 3D-NLM is oscillatory (wave-like) and since the nonlinear term (X3) is associated with the nonlinear feedback loop, here, we suggest that the nonlinear feedback loop may act as a restoring force. When the heating term is considered, the system yields three critical points. A linear analysis suggests that the origin (i.e. the trivial critical point) is a saddle point and that the other two non-trivial critical points (i.e. centers) are stable. Here, we provide an analysis for three types of solutions that are associated with these critical points. Two of the solutions represent closed curves that travel around one non-trivial critical point or all three critical points. The third type of solution, appearing to connect the stable and unstable manifolds of the saddle point, is called the homoclinic orbit. Using the solution that encloses one non-trivial critical point, here, we show that the competing impact of the nonlinear restoring force and the linear (heating) force determines the partition of the average available potential energy from the Y and Z modes. Based on the energy analysis, an energy cycle with four different regimes is identified. The cycle is only half of a ‘large’ cycle, displaying the wing pattern of a glass-winged butterfly. The other half cycle is anti-symmetric with respect to the origin. The two types of oscillatory solutions with either a small cycle or a large cycle are orbitally stable. As compared to the oscillatory solutions, the homoclinic orbit is not periodic because it “takes forever” to reach the origin. Two trajectories with starting points near the homoclinic orbit may be diverged because one moves with a small cycle and the other moves with a large cycle. Therefore, the homoclinic orbit is not orbitally stable. In a future study, dissipation and/or additional nonlinear terms will be further examined in order to determine how their interactions with the original nonlinear feedback loop and the heating term may change the periodic orbits (as well as homoclinic orbits) to become quasi-periodic orbits and chaotic solutions.
