Norwegian municipalities and reputation building –
Authors: Bjørnå Hilde
Published: July 2023

This article explores how council leaderships act as agents in promoting reputational policies. It introduces a public policy perspective to research on public sector reputation. It asks how the political leader and the administrative leader are agents in reputational policies and to what extent different interests and coalitions can influence thought patterns and behaviour in the municipal organisation. What has been found is that the political leader and the administrative leader may have different interests and strategies and that they are likely to be engaged in networks that might be narrow or broad in focus, scope and membership. These reputational agents and coalitions have an impact on reputational policies. They have an impact on the understanding of ‘proper roles’ and routines in municipalities and this again may lead to changes in the workings of the municipal organisation.
Story found or story lost?
Authors: Moldenæs Turid
Published: July 2023

The aim of the article is to add to our knowledge of reputation management efforts in municipalities. Despite the multitude of such efforts, few have been studied. The specific focus is on the contents of reputation films made by Norwegian municipalities. Is there a story in these films? If so, what is the message conveyed, and is it convincing in its attempt to present the different municipalities as unique? The analysis shows that the films lack a story, and as such they are not suitable to capture the attention of an audience, be remembered and retold. It also shows that, despite the fact that municipalities vary in size, are located in different parts of the country, have different key industries and varying topographies, traditions and histories, they struggle to convey their differences. The municipality film seems to have developed into a romanticising genre, offering little authentic representation of the specific municipality presented, life in small places as well as life in general. Thus, it may also be difficult for those who live there to identify with the message.
Municipal Service Center – For What and For Whom?
Authors: Kristianssen Ann-Catrin , Olsson Jan
Published: July 2023

Organizational reforms in public administration have been high on the agenda for decades. A popular type is the Municipal Service Center (MSC) gathering citizen-local government interaction in one location, physically and virtually. By using a processual approach, this article reveals the trade-offs and value-priorities made in the process of establishing a MSC in a mid-sized Swedish municipality. The empirical data comprise documents and 29 semi-structured interviews with politicians, managing directors, and other key actors. We discern four key trade-offs: open process of change or final product, efficiency or democracy values, politicians or administrators as key actors, and citizens as customers or co-creators. The article also discusses the trade-offs in relation to broader public administration perspectives. The results indicate that the process was characterized by a view of citizens as service-recipients and customers, a focus on efficiency and the final product, and finally pushed forward by administrators. Most, but no all trade-offs and value-priorities were aligned with new public management (NPM), while other public administration perspectives were not applicabel as expected in a citizen-centred reform process.
The Free Will of Professor Sturmhauser

Published: July 2023

Is purposeful ignorance the key to a happy life? Should you choose to believe in free will to give your life meaning? In this work of philosophical short story fiction, a depressed philosophy professor is a deep believer in the lack of free will. Everything from his job to his divorce, to his depression, had to happen exactly as it did. Eventually, his drinking catches up to him and he is put into a recovery hospital. It’s a long, hard road to recovery but he begins to wonder if the false belief in free will is the key to living a happy and successful life. Months later he is released from the hospital, moves to the Dominican Republic, and goes back to drinking and enjoying retirement alone.
The Library of Gromma
Authors: Auerbach Zeph ,   After Dinner Conversation
Published: July 2023

Should the past be forgotten? Does it help society, and the community, to let the past go? How can we learn from the past while simultaneously letting go of it? In this work of philosophical short story fiction, a young boy has been put in charge of the machine that stores the exact collective memories of his grandmother (“Gromma”) and the community at large. His job is made more difficult because the machine is old, falling apartment, and a fire killed the previous caretaker long before his training was complete. As the story closes the boy finds out the previous fire was caused by a community member who believes the community can only move forward by destroying the machine and allowing the memories of the past to naturally fade into obscurity.
Carnap Versus Popper
Authors: Astorga Miguel López ,   Romanian Academy - Iasi Branch
Published: July 2023

Carnap and Popper proposed ways scientists have to work. According to Carnap, they should look for confirmations for hypotheses. In Popper‘s view, what is important is to try to falsify hypotheses. Cognitive science seems to prove that, in real scientific research, both activities play a role. First, people attempt to confirm hypotheses. Second, they seek examples refuting those hypotheses. This paper is intended to show that the theory of mental models can describe the mental processes involved in both tasks: confirmation and falsification. It addresses the mental possibilities individuals consider in both cases. In addition, the paper reveals that, in accordance with both Carnap‘s framework and Popper‘s approach, both mental activities are related to conditional reasoning.
Quine and First-Person Authority
Authors: Hossein Khani Ali ,   Romanian Academy - Iasi Branch
Published: July 2023

Blackburn and Searle have argued that Quine‘s thesis of the indeterminacy of translation results in a denial of the sort of first-person authority that we commonly concede we have over our mental and semantical content. For, the indeterminacy thesis implies that there is no determinate meaning to know at all. And, according to Quine, the indeterminacy holds at home too. For Blackburn, Quine must constrain the domain of indeterminacy to the case of translation only. Searle believes that Quine has no other choice but to give up on his behaviorism. Hylton, however, has attempted to defend Quine against these objections, by arguing that Quine‘s naturalistic claim that speaking a language is nothing but possessing certain dispositions to act in specific ways would enable him to accommodate first-person authority. I will argue that the objections from Blackburn and Searle, as well as Hylton‘s solution, are all problematic when seen from within Quine‘s philosophy. I will introduce a sort of Strawsonian-Wittgensteinian conception of first-person authority and offer that it would be more than compatible with Quine‘s naturalistic philosophy.
Self-Favoring Theories and the Bias Argument
Authors: Békefi Bálint ,   Romanian Academy - Iasi Branch
Published: July 2023

In a recent article, Bernáth and Tőzsér (2021) defend what they call the Bias Argument, a new skeptical argument from expert peer disagreement. They argue that the best contrastive causal explanation for disagreement among leading experts in philosophy is that they adopt their positions in a biased way. But if the leading experts are biased, non-experts either are also biased or only avoid bias through epistemic inferiority. Recognizing this is expected to prompt one to decrease one‘s confidence in one‘s philosophical beliefs. This paper argues that some beliefs are immune to a key premise of the Bias Argument. To show this, the paper develops the concepts of self-favoring theories, decisive support, and standing-incommensurable disagreements. A plausible example of a self-favoring theory, dubbed Mere Reformed Protestantism, is sketched. Many disagreements over self-favoring theories and over beliefs decisively supported by self-favoring theories are shown to be standing-incommensurable. It is then argued that when non-experts are in standing-incommensurable disagreements with experts, the standards of assessing expertise are themselves controverted. This result undercuts the move in the Bias Argument from expert bias to non-expert bias. Finally, a couple reservations about the role of self-favoring theories in philosophy are addressed.

Trauma is the emotional and physical harm of people from situations that develop suddenly and that they cannot resist. After the trauma,the person becomesmore prone to many psychological disorders and has tangible consequences such as decreased productivity, loss of job and loss of physical well-being. EMDR is one of the most effective methods used intrauma treatment. EMDR is a therapy method with proven effectiveness in cases of sexual abuse as well as in many types of trauma. However, EMDR applications are not available for Capgras Syndrome. In this study, it was shown that the symptoms of X, who developed Capgras Syndromeafter sexual abuse, were reduced after EMDR treatment in addition to drug treatment. X also had doubts about his sexual orientation and it was determined that these doubts disappeared after the application.

The first case of Richard Asher syndrome (Munchausen syndrome) in Iraq
Authors: Jalal Al-Mosawi Aamir
Published: July 2023

Background: Richard Asher syndrome was first described by Richard Asher in 1951, and he named it “Munchausen syndrome” after a fictionalized German character, Baron von Munchausen who was traveling and telling fantastic tales about his invented deeds. Richard Asher syndrome has not been reported from Iraq before. Patients and methods: The case of a patient complaining of recurrent bleeding per rectum over the previous seven years is described. Results: A male who was otherwise health was seen at about the age of 30 years because he was complaining of recurrent bleeding per rectum of about seven years. He didn’t have bleeding from another site or any systemic symptom. He said that the last episode of bleeding occurred before about one week. All of the previous investigations including ESR complete blood count, stool examinations, abdominal ultrasound, abdominal X-ray, barium enema radiography and lower endoscopy showed normal findings. He said, previously a doctor diagnosed his illness as ulcerative colitis and prescribed him oral sulfasalazine to be taken during the episodes of bleeding, and another doctor suggested surgical removal of the colon. As it was not possible to identify any pathology, he was advised to wait for the next episode, and to do stool examination on the day of bleeding. However, after few weeks he came again and said that the last episode of bleeding occurred before about one week, and he didn’t do stool examination during the days of bleeding. Conclusion: As early as 1955, Tyndel rightly criticized naming the syndrome after Baron Munchausen, as this name is not representative of the syndrome, and considered to be misleading because Baron Munchausen was considered as a source of harmful fantastic humor. Therefore, the appropriate name is Richard Asher syndrome. The first case of Richard Asher syndrome from Iraq is reported in this paper.

Trypanosomosis is a major constraint to livestock production due to the challenge of vector control activities and drug resistance development in Sub-Saharan Africa particularly Ethiopia. The most common trypanosome species that affects cattle in Ethiopia are T. congolense. T. vivax and T. brucei. Therefore, A cross sectional study was conducted from November 2019 to December 2020 to determine the prevalence of bovine trypanosomosis Nono district of Western Shewa zone, Ethiopia. The study district was purposively selected and PAs were randomly selected to take sample for the study. For the prevalence study, dark phase contrast buffy coat examination and Giemsa stained thin blood smears were used and Chi- Square test was used to analysis the results. Out of a total of 384 randomly selected and examined cattle, an overall prevalence of 5.5% was recorded. Highest prevalence was recorded in Nano Halo 8(6.7%) followed by Biftu Jalala 6(5.5%) and Halo Dinki 7(4.5%) peasant associations. This study showed no significant difference (P>0.05) in trypanosomiasis infection rate among peasant associations and there was significant association between risk factors like age(X2= 6.97, P= 0.008), sex (X2= 5.38, P= 0.02), body condition (X2 = 6.09, P= 0.048) and PCV values (X2= 18.47, P= 0.000) of examined cattle. Out of species of trypanosome identified highest was T. Congolense was 13(61.91%), followed by T. Vivax was 7(33.33%) and 1(4.76%) were mixed. The present work evidenced that tsetse and trypanosomosis has continued to pose a considerable threat to cattle of the study area warranting an integrated control to safeguard cattle production and productivity.

Coronavirus Fulminant Myocarditis May Mimic Acute MI: Case Review
Authors:   Klinikum Nurnberg Hospital, Germany.
Published: July 2023

The present study describes the case of a woman aged 48 who had acute retrosternal pain, elevated cardiac markers and electrocardiographic ST-T changes, which led to an original misdiagnosis of acute myocardial infarction. The patient underwent immediate coronary angiography, which revealed normal coronary arteries. Finally, the diagnosis of viral myocarditis was made on consideration of his fever, scattered red dots on his arms and legs and other auxiliary examination results obtained in the following days, which were supportive of the diagnosis. The patient improved on antiviral and myocardial protection therapy and was discharged 2 weeks later. Viral myocarditis is a common disease with a variable natural history. It remains challenging for doctors to differentiate between acute myocarditis and myocardial infarction, particularly in the early stages. A diagnosis of myocarditis should be made on the basis of synthetic evaluation of the evidence, including medical history, clinical presentation and results of the available auxiliary tests, in order to provide guidelines for treatment.

Students are motivated to learn when using rewards and punishments as teaching methods. Thus, the goals and objectives of rewarding and punishing students are to raise their desire to do better and to be more active in carrying out the positive activities they have already done, including the development of student-worthy morals. In order to be effective, rewards and penalties must be used in teaching. Rewards are given to pupils in recognition of their accomplishments or good deeds, whereas punishment has a deterrent impact on rule-breaking on the part of students. It is important to keep in mind that punishment does not involve suffering and instead encourages individuals to develop their independence. It's crucial to use both rewards and penalties to teach children.  Students are motivated to learn when using rewards and punishments as teaching methods. Thus, the goals and objectives of rewarding and punishing students are to raise their desire to do better and to be more active in carrying out the positive activities they have already done, including the development of student-worthy morals. Teachers are expected to administer incentives and penalties in accordance with the law so that students would accept them wholeheartedly. And it is hoped that there won't be any miscommunication between teachers and students as long as rewards and penalties are given. In order for the use of rewards and penalties to benefit pupils and improve them, particularly in terms of morality.

Evaluation is an important activity carried out by educators in the learning process. By evaluating educators, they can improve their competence in class management both in choosing learning methods, media, teaching materials, and so on which can motivate students to learn. In addition, with evaluation educators can find out the level of success of their students. Therefore educators must carry out evaluation activities properly. However, in reality there are still many educators who have not carried out the evaluation process properly, especially in elementary schools. One of the causes is the lack of knowledge that educators have about the evaluation itself and it is often found that teachers manipulate student grades, as a result of manipulating grades will have a bad impact on their students. So that knowledge is needed about the concept, the role of evaluation to the procedures for carrying out evaluations in order to obtain evaluation results that can describe the real state of students.

The interactive-video material can be further developed and enhanced to obtain optimum results in the student's test scores.
Puccini und Romantic Comedy: Zur Rolle von Giacomo Puccinis La Bohème in Norman Jewisons MOONSTRUCK
Authors: Stockel Niclas
Published: July 2023

Unter den zahlreichen Filmproduktionen, die sich Inhalte und Musiken aus Opern zu eigen machen, nimmt der Film MOONSTRUCK (USA 1987, Norman Jewison) eine Sonderposition ein. Ohnehin fragliche Etiketten wie ›Opernfilm‹ und ›Filmoper‹ lassen sich hier nicht anwenden, denn MOONSTRUCK entzieht sich derlei Kategorisierungen: Giacomo Puccinis Oper La Bohème (1896) wird zwar explizit erwähnt, einzelne Aufführungsszenen werden ins Bild gesetzt und das Musikerlebnis einzelner Arien exponiert, doch entspinnt sich all das stets als ein Spiel mit verschiedenen Situationen und Sinnzusammenhängen der Opernhandlung. Interpretations- und Reflexionsräume werden durch den Film gerade da geöffnet, wo sich Analogien nicht so einfach ziehen lassen. Motive aus der Oper, seien sie personeller, emotionaler oder situativer Art, werden aus ihrem Kontext herausgelöst und in den neuen filmischen überführt, wodurch sich Bedeutungsverschiebungen ergeben – eine Verfahrensweise, die der Motivtechnik in der Opernmusik Puccinis ähnlich ist.

El objetivo de la investigación se orientó en el mejoramiento de las características físico-químicas y sensorial del cacao CCN-51 con la adición de la enzima PPO (Polifenol oxidasa) y levaduras (Saccaromyces cerevisiae). Se utilizó un Diseño Completo Aleatorizado (DCA) con ocho tratamientos y 3 repeticiones. Las variables estudiadas fueron prueba de corte (Inen 176), aroma, sabor, porcentaje de fermentación, porcentaje teobromina, porcentaje de acidez, humedad y pH., en los laboratorios de INIAP-Pichilingue y Santa Catalina. El proceso de fermentación se realizó durante 5 y 7 días en cajas de laurel (Cordia alliodora), las temperaturas alcanzaron valores entre 31°C a 46 °C, desempeñando un papel importante en la muerte del embrión de las habas de cacao y en las reacciones bioquímicas en los tejidos del cotiledón. Posteriormente se procedió con el secado al sol en tendal de cemento cubierto de plástico durante 6 días hasta alcanzar un porcentaje promedio de humedad de 3,16%. Los resultados muestran que la adición de la levadura (Saccaromyces cerevisiae) y el PPO mejoran las características físicas-químicas y sensoriales en comparación con el testigo; además se estableció que la concentración de teobromina se redujo a 1.46% al utilizar el PPO durante siete días de fermentación.

Published: July 2023

Se analizaron los sólidos pulverulentos obtenidos de las hojas de Psidium guajava L. (guayaba), para lo cual se realizó una extracción por decocción a reflujo con acetona, una posterior hidrólisis ácida y finalmente la extracción líquido – líquido con acetato de etilo. Los flavonoides se identificaron mediante reacciones colorimétricas en los extractos totales y previa separación por cromatografía en capa fina. Para la cuantificación se empleó la espectrofotometría ultravioleta - visible como método analítico para la determinación de flavonoides totales respecto al metabolito quercetina; se desarrolló un método directo y otro indirecto y ambos fueron validados sobre la base del cumplimiento de los parámetros de desempeño analítico: Linealidad, Precisión, Exactitud y Sensibilidad. El contenido de flavonoides totales en la muestra de los sólidos pulverulentos de las hojas de Psidium guajava L. fue de 1,018 ± 0,080 % para el método directo y un 0,936 ± 0,090 % para el método indirecto. Ambos valores fueron relativamente cercanos; para el método indirecto la concentración fue ligeramente menor porque, bajo las condiciones de este análisis, la absorbancia está menos influida por sustancias interferentes. Los dos métodos espectrofotométricos pueden ser adecuados para llevar a cabo la cuantificación de flavonoides en hojas de guayaba.

Електронний бюлетень підготовлено за даними всеукраїнських репрезентативних опитувань, проведених Інститутом соціальної та політичної психології АПН України протягом 2008–2009 років на основі виданого друком [3]. Дані презентують перший (проміжний) етап створення національного стан-дарту престижності професій, що ставилося нами як одне із завдань дослідження, реалізація якого відк-риває можливості для адекватних крос-культурних порівнянь та прогнозування рівня престижності будь-яких актуальних з точки зору суспільного запиту (ринку праці) професій, навіть якщо вони відсутні серед переліку професій, що піддавалися оцінюванню. Складений нами перелік професій містить 442 на-йменування, відтворюючи структуру міжнародного стандарту їх класифікації (ISCO-88). Крім чотириз-начного кодування, кожну професію переліку додатково прокодовано згідно типології професій за Є._Клімовим з огляду на кінцеву мету дослідження – сприяння підвищенню рівня профорієнтаційної роботи з молоддю. Престижність професій оцінювалася респондентами за 9-ти бальною шкалою, що відповідає новітнім міжнародним зразкам. Проміжний характер презентованих в даному бюлетені даних обумовлю-ється їх представленістю середніми значеннями, обчисленими за дев'ятибальною шкалою. Отримання їх у форматі, придатному для порівняння із стандартизованою шкалою Д. Треймана (переведення у шкалу "0-100"), є завданням наступних етапів. Електронний бюлетень крім заданого переліку професій, які оці-нювалися, містить данні за угрупуваннями професій.

Authors: Carrillo Quiñones Elizabeth Madeleine , Temoche Espinoza William Mariano
Published: July 2023

El presente trabajo de investigación tuvo como objetivo analizar las ventajas y desventajas de la restitución del sistema bicameral y su enfoque hermenéutico de eficacia en la producción legislativa, realizando una crítica al sistema unicameral, como mecanismo óptimo en la producción de leyes en el Parlamento Peruano. Por tal motivo, no se podía dejar de considerar la teoría de la Separación de Poderes. Del mismo modo, se analizó el sistema bicameral y se realizó una crítica al sistema unicameral, permitiendo así, tener una visión más amplia de las diferencias y beneficios que se encuentran contenidos en cada uno de los sistemas en mención, así como, los aportes favorables y desfavorables que contienen ambas condiciones, mostrando como la labor parlamentaria sería mucho más eficiente y eficaz al momento de la elaboración de las leyes, si se regresa al sistema bicameral. El método fue descriptivo, cualitativo de análisis hermenéutico.

One of the most important advances in biology has been the discovery that siRNA (small interfering RNA) is able to regulate the expression of genes, by a phenomenon known as RNAi (RNA interference). The discovery of RNAi, first in plants and Caenorhabditis elegans and later in mammalian cells, led to the emergence of a transformative view in biomedical research. siRNA has gained attention as a potential therapeutic reagent due to its ability to inhibit specific genes in many genetic diseases. siRNAs can be used as tools to study single gene function both in vivo and in-vitro and are an attractive new class of therapeutics, especially against undruggable targets for the treatment of cancer and other diseases. The siRNA delivery systems are categorized as non-viral and viral delivery systems. The non-viral delivery system includes polymers; Lipids; peptides etc. are the widely studied delivery systems for siRNA. Effective pharmacological use of siRNA requires ‘carriers’ that can deliver the siRNA to its intended site of action. The carriers assemble the siRNA into supramolecular complexes that display functional properties during the delivery process.

Erythrocytes aggregation takes places under low shear conditions or at stasis. All suggested mechanisms of erythrocytes aggregation indicated the importance role of fibrinogen and other blood proteins in enhanced erythrocyte aggregation. Recently a special attention is given to the cellular factors that may effect on erythrocytes aggregation. The present study inferred the effect of the cellular properties of erythrocytes on their aggregation. In the present study, aggregation index was calculated by a simple microscopic method. Correlations between erythrocytes aggregation index and mean cell volume, osmotic fragility, electrophoretic mobility, and magnetophoretic mobility were studied. The findings of this study indicated that the aggregation index is significatly correlated to mean cell volume, magnetophoretic mobility, osmotic fragility and electrophoretic mobility. Thus, It is concluded that cellular factors should be taken into consideration when studying the mechanism of erythrocytes aggregation.

Objective: To assess the feasibility of plain decompressive hemicraniectomy in the treatment of spontaneous hypertensive intracranial bleeds as a low-cost and low-skill alternative for decompression and hematoma evacuation. Methodology: A retrospective cohort analysis of all the spontaneous hypertensive bleeds operated in a tertiary care center in southern India was planned, all surgical cases were analyzed and the mortality and morbidity differences between procedures employed were understood. Results: Of the 18 patients operated on with decompression with hematoma evacuation, a high mortality rate of 26 cases was noticed (50%), significantly more than plain decompressive hemicraniectomy (12.5% was seen across all patients irrespective of preoperative GCS or comorbidities. Conclusion: Decompressive hemicraniectomy is a viable alternative to decompression with hematoma evacuation. This is especially relevant in rural settings where expertise and equipment are in short supply and transport to higher centers implies a delay in surgery, often associated with significant morbidity and mortality.

Published: July 2023

This study was carried out on a poultry farm in the Department of Animal Production – College of Agriculture - University of Anbar, the experiment aimed to determine broiler chicks' undesired behavior, including fear, gathering, and isolation. Seventy-five unsexed chicks were used that belong to strain Ross 308 with the age of one day. Chicks were randomly distributed to five replications, each replicate contained 15 chicks. The fear behavior was studied by observing the situation in which the chicks of each repeater are present at different times of the day when observing the chicks, we counted the number of isolated chicks, that is, located at the corners of the field, and recorded them, considering that they were very afraid. Chicks that are a little far from the corner were considered Medium afraid, and those that are farther away from the corner are a little afraid. As for the chicks that are spread out, far from the corners and walls, they are considered natural and not afraid, this is what was applied to each repeater (color) and at each of the specified times to take Data per day during the trial period. The results showed significant differences between the treatments in each of the traits of fear, grouping, and isolation due to the natural stimulator (sound) to broiler chicks.
