Using Anticarceral Feminism to Illustrate the Impact of Criminalization on the Lives of Individuals in the Sex Trades

This research study is informed by anticarceral feminism to understand and highlight the experiences of violence and oppression that individuals in the sex trade experience as a result of police stings, raids, and incarceration. We present findings from 23 in-depth, qualitative interviews with men, women, and trans individuals who were arrested in the Los Angeles sex trade. More specifically, we explore experiences of violence that occurred interpersonally, systemically, and institutionally. Such experiences examine police violence, arrest and incarceration, coercion, and client violence. The findings from this research shed light on the impact the criminalization of sex work has had on research participants in terms of their physical health and mental health, economic security and opportunities for growth and education, and their sense of freedom and autonomy. We also attend to the role that intersecting identities might have played during their encounters with the police. This study explored these aspects while being mindful that the policies and procedures followed by the police are born out of a carceral state. We conclude with antioppressive and antiviolent implications for social work practice, policy, research, and education as we imagine the next decade of social work in relation to sex trade.
Method for Evaluating the Digital Potential of a Backbone Innovative Active Industrial Cluster

Issues of digitalizing industrial enterprises and clusters in the formation of Industry 4.0 garner considerable attention. Here, the discussion is about backbone innovative active industrial enterprises, whose appearance is thanks to the evolutionary development of integrated industrial structures, and which are able to actively create, introduce, and commercialize innovative products and to use all the advantages of industrial automation. The authors attempt to develop a method for assessing the digital potential of backbone innovative active industrial clusters. The method is developed based on existing methods for and approaches to evaluating the innovation potential of industrial clusters and the digital potential of industrial enterprises, and makes it possible to calculate a final integral assessment, which includes calculating for each of the seven sub-potentials the parameters identified by experts to be important. In order to confirm the validity of the obtained results, the calculation is carried out using three methods: arithmetic mean, harmonic mean, and weighted geometric mean. The suggested method was successfully tested on the example cluster “Development of information technologies, radio electronics, instrumentation, communication and info-telecommunication devices of St. Petersburg. “
Case Report: Surgical Treatment of Drug-Resistant Temporal Lobe Epilepsy

In the first group of patients undergoing this form of treatment, gross structural lesions were identified on regular skull x-rays and pneumoencephalograms. However, these methods were relatively insensitive and therefore uninformative in a large number of patients. Bailey and Gibbs (3) in Chicago, and Penfield and Jasper (4) at the Montreal Neurological Institute were the first to perform surgical resection for the treatment of complex partial seizures using a unilateral temporal interictal electroencephalogram (EEG) spike focus as the major indication for anterior temporal lobe resection. Today, anterior temporal lobe removal has become the most common, and successful, surgical treatment available for epilepsy (1,2,5).
Resultados preliminares del impacto de la COVID-19 en niños/as y adolescentes expuestos a maltrato intrafamiliar

Preliminary data confirm the psychological impact that the COVID-19 crisis is causing in children and adolescents in the community population. It is unknown how it affects the child population who suffer intrafamilial abuse. The objective of the study was to examine the additional emotional impact of the measure of confinement in minors exposed to intimate partner violence towards women who received psychological attention in the Region of Murcia. One hundred and eighty-five mothers reported, by telephone comunication, how the confinement affected to 269 children between the ages of 0 and 18. Also the 108 minors who were 6 years old or older completed the list on their own emotional state. The incidence increasement of psychological disorders within this population has been low (1.1-4.8%), although among those with increased symptoms, behavioral disorganization and emotional disturbance was predominant. Likewise, it was found that some variables (sex, age, days of confinement, family conflict) contributed to increase the behavioral disorganization and traumatic stress/depression. It is necessary to develop more research in this line due to the derived implications both at diagnosis and treatment levels.
Revealing Issue Salience via Costly Protest: How Legislative Behavior Following Protest Advantages Low-Resource Groups

Collective action, particularly by low-resource groups, presents an opportunity for re-election-minded legislators to learn about (and subsequently represent) their constituents’ salient interests. In fact, legislators are more likely to support the preferences of protesters than non-protesters. Legislators are also more likely to support the preferences of racial and ethnic minority, low-income and grassroots protesting groups than they are to represent better-resourced protesters. This argument emerges from a formal theory and is empirically tested using legislative roll-call vote data from the 102nd through the 104th US Congresses and data on civil rights, minority issues and civil liberties issue area protests reported in the New York Times. This counterintuitive result enhances understanding of inequalities in representation. It demonstrates that under certain conditions, political representation favors disadvantaged populations.
Repetition in Surah al-Fath: (Qur’anic Stylistic Studies)

Language and literature have a complex relationship with religion. The concrete example of these relationship can be observed in the Qur’an. The Qur’an as a Muslim holy book is revealed in Arabic which is fulled by beautiful language styles. Even, the beauty of diction in the Qur’an was recognized by prominent Arabic literaturer in his time. One of language style which dominates the beauty of the Qur’an is repetition. Therefore, the research of repetition in the Qur’an is importance in term of linguistics, literature, and religion. Through a qualitative approach and content analysis, this research aims to explore the types of repetition in one of Madaniyah’s surah, namely al-Fath. The results are found in this surah as follows. 1) There are four types of repetition in surah al-Fath, namely phonological, morphological, syntax, and semantic repetition. 2) The most common repetition found in Surah al-Fath is phonological repetition then syntax repetition. 3) Themost common type of phonological repetition is initial rhyme as morpheme. 4) the most common type of syntax repetition is word repetition as partial reduplication.The results of this research are useful as a theoretical reference, especially regarding the style of repetition in the Qur’an
The Students’ Problems and Solutions in Writing an Argumentative Essay on Gender Issue

This study is intended to find out the students’ problems and their solutions in writing argumentative essays.

Production of calcium preparations by technology of saltwater fish by product processing

Abstract The paper presents the technology of processing Baltic cod (Gadus morhua callarias) and Atlantic salmon (Salmo salar) backbones – by-products from fish processing – for the production of calcium preparations. The raw material for the process consisted of backbones with remaining muscle tissue, devoid of heads and fins (30 kg of each type of backbones). The processing included the following stages: cutting, preliminary processing in an alkaline environment (soaking in 2 M NaOH), processing with 0.1% citric acid, aroma removal and material disinfection (5% H2O2), rinsing with tap water, drying, and grinding the end-product. Calcium preparations from cod (BCP) and salmon (ASP) in the amounts of 1.20 kg and 1.62 kg, respectively, characterized by high calcium content (27.79% in BCP, and 24.92% in ASP) and low protein and fat content (14.20% and 0.25% for BCP, and 10.78% and 0.12% for ASP, respectively) were obtained. The study demonstrated the effectiveness of this technology for production of calcium preparations from fish backbones. Graphical Abstract
Mechanical characteristics of dowel bar-concrete interaction: based on substructure experiment

ABSTRACT Loading tests were carried out on the dowel bar-concrete substructure of concrete pavement. Mechanical characteristics of dowel bar-concrete interaction were studied. In the elastic range of concrete, the bearing modulus, which is a crucial parameter but is usually determined by presumption, was calculated using classic Westergaard equations. Its influencing factors were evaluated such as concrete strength, dowel bar thickness, joint width, and anti-cohesive layer. Besides, a theoretical equation for tangential stress at the most dangerous point of concrete was deduced from Westergaard's and Timoshenko's equations. The equation reveals how the tangential stress of the most dangerous point at the dowel bar-concrete interface is affected by influencing factors. Lastly, the deterioration process of concrete around the dowel bar was revealed. The strain gauges’ data show that deterioration of concrete develops from the most dangerous point to far away from the dowel bar gradually. Two failure modes were found; one is circular spalling, the other is three main cracks. The initiation of the dowel-bar concrete structure's deterioration is circular spalling, attributed to high radial compressive stress in concrete. The deterioration starts around half the load capacity of the structure.

Some biological parameters in the evaluation of the stability and maturity of two compost

Composting represents an alternative for the use of organic waste by transforming it into an organic amendment that improves the structure and fertility of soils. As it is a microbiological process, the objective was to analyze some biological parameters in the evaluation of the stability and maturity of two compost. Two compost was made with waste generated at the Simón Bolívar University one obtained from organic waste generated in the dining room and the other from plant remains from the pruning of the gardens. The parameters evaluated were temperature and microbial count, expressed as colony-forming units per gram of compost for yeast, and for aerobic and anaerobic bacteria (in turn classifying the bacteria by the Gram staining method), as well as the germination index determined by the phytotoxicity test. The results obtained allowed us to conclude that: the temperature of the compost pile is a good indicator of the evolution of the composting process, as it is closely associated with biological activity indicating the stages of the process, in the compost analyzed, the counting of microorganisms allowed to evaluate them as stable, the bacterial classification by Gram staining, represented a good indicator of the successions that occur in the composting process and was useful to help the classification of the bacteria present; the phytotoxicity test corroborated the degree of maturity and stability of the studied compost.

Investment attractiveness of natural resources companies and commodity contracts - a comparative analysis for the first half of 2019 and 2020 motivated by the SARS-Cov-2 pandemic

The paper deals with the issue of financial efficiency, measured by the arithmetic rate of return, of indirect financial investments in the area of strategic raw materials (hard coal, copper, crude oil) Two forms of indirect investments were analyzed: shares of natural resources companies listed on the Warsaw Stock Exchange and futures contracts for strategic commodities: hard coal, copper and crude oil The time of the analysis is the first 6 months of 2019 and 2020 The year 2019 was regarded as an analysis of the period of economic growth, and the year 2020 was the analysis of the period of economic crisis The comparisons were made in two dimensions Firstly, it whether indirect commodity investments show the characteristics of efficiency resilience to the time of the economic crisis was checked (by comparing the achieved rates of return in the two analyzed periods) Secondly, which of the analyzed forms of investment (stocks, contracts) gives better investment results during economic growth and economic crisis was compared As it was shown in the papa, indirect commodity investments do not show an above-average rate of return neither during economic growth nor economic crisis The achieved rates of return on shares compared to changes in the WIG20 index in the analyzed first half of 2019 were negative Only one company showed a positive and significantly higher than the market rate of return Very similar results were achieved by the analyzed companies in 2020 On the other hand, the analysis of prices and rates of return on commodity futures contracts showed that in the period of economic growth it is effective to take a long position on crude oil contracts and a short position on hard coal contracts In a period of economic crisis, the opposite position is profitable due to the observed growth in hard coal prices and a significant drop in crude oil prices The answers to the research questions posed in the paper do not provide indications for recommending indirect forms of investment in commodities as an alternative to analogous forms of other sectors of the economy The analysis shows that the impact of the economic situation on the efficiency of commodity investment is most noticeable for crude oil, and the least (among the analyzed commodities) for indirect copper-based investments
Zinc Oxide Nanorod‐Based Piezoelectric Dermal Patch for Wound Healing

Current treatments for wound healing engage in passive healing processes and rarely participate in stimulating skin cell behaviors for active wound healing. Electric potential difference‐derived electrical fields (EFs) are known to modulate skin cell behaviors. Here, a piezoelectric dermal patch is developed that can be applied on skin wound site and EF is generated to promote wound healing. The one‐directionally aligned zinc oxide nanorod‐based piezoelectric patch generates piezoelectric potential upon mechanical deformations induced by animal motion, and induces EF at the wound bed. In vitro and in vivo data demonstrate that the piezoelectric patch promotes the wound healing process through enhanced cellular metabolism, migration, and protein synthesis. This modality may lead to a clinically relevant piezoelectric dermal patch therapy for active wound healing.

Shock tube data processing tools using open source hardware and software platforms

To cater the need of specific shock‐tube data acquisition and processing system, a low cost open‐source alternative has been developed and presented in this paper. Using easily available open‐source hardware and software platforms such as ARDUINO, a robust 5.3 MHz speed data acquisition system along with optimized shock tube data processing software is designed and an indigenous shock tube data processing tool has been developed. This has been found to be 10 times less cost than the general‐purpose computing equipment available on the market, with a substantial reduction in shockwave data processing time and effort. The setup has been tested with the different diaphragms producing shockwaves of different Mach numbers. The experimental results are compared with the theoretical values obtained using normal shock relations and are found to be consistent with admissible error limits. This validates the design and construction of the device for scientific experiments.
Reproduction probabilities and size distributions of the smooth snake Coronella austriaca in the Netherlands and Norway

Whether females participate in reproduction every year or rather skip years is pivotal information for understanding the dynamics of animal populations. In ectotherms this reproduction frequency might depend on factors like temperature, individual size, and prey availability. Here we studied the reproduction rate of the smooth snake Coronella austriaca at two latitudes: in Norway and The Netherlands. Reproductive and morphological data were collected in Norway (34 years) and The Netherlands (5 years). To account for differential resighting probabilities of pregnant and non-pregnant females, we performed multi-state mark-recapture analyses. Reproductive rate, quantified as the probability of participating in reproduction in consecutive years, was calculated for both pregnant and non-pregnant females. The results showed a clear difference in reproductive rate between the two latitudes, with only 15% of pregnant females reproducing again in the following year in Norway versus 93% in The Netherlands. Furthermore, in Norway females grew larger and started reproduction at a higher age. Litter size and juvenile total length and body mass were also significantly higher in Norwegian smooth snakes.
