East Syriac Poetry Embedded in the Manuscript Decoration: 17th—18th Centuries
Authors:   The Hermitage Museum, Pritula Anton ,   HSE University
Published: January 2021

East Syriac poetry embedded in the manuscript decoration has not been studied despite its large popularity in this tradition. Such verse pieces, mostly quatrains, are known at least since the 16th century. The poems being discussed in the present paper represent a further development of this particular text group. It seems to have first appeared in the Gospel lectionaries. Later on, the other types of liturgical manuscripts also obtained different kinds of “decorative” scribal poetry. This process went on alongside the growth of the poetry's popularity in the East Syriac tradition during several centuries of the Ottoman period.

Authors: Parajuli Kewal Ram , Linkha Tika Ram
Published: January 2021

Teacher educators are playing a significant role in managing pandemic situation at various ways. Their role is important to raise public awareness about epidemic and pandemic diseases, like COVID-19. It is mainly due to education and educators are to be considered as an initiator of changes at community level. Their preparedness, understanding, practices and participation can be reliable way to measure the impact of COVID-19 in Dhankuta district. In this context, the focus of this paper is to estimate teachers' knowledge, understanding and practices to preventive measures of COVID-19. In addition, the paper has also intended to analyze the opportunities and challenges that lockdown has bought in their academic environment. For this purpose, 51 teachers were chosen from Dhankuta Multiple Campus using proportionate stratified random sampling (SRS) method with covering gender and faculties. Web based cross sectional research design was applied and some of the variables, like knowledge about COVID-19, adoptive practices, challenges faced in academic environment and reduction strategy were considered to collect and analyze data. The findings of this paper indicate that the mean score of overall knowledge and practices are 6.90 and 6.4 respectively and 94.1 % faces academic challenges. Meantime, the respondent reported that hotels and markets were more vulnerable places as compared to other economic sectors. Their responses ranked such as use of mask, sanitizer, distance maintain, lockdown, and quarantine were some of the ways to prevent COVID-19. However, 70.6 % teachers were involved in online classes, e-library and continuing their academic activities. This paper concludes that the pandemic of COVID-19 has also created a new environment in teaching-learning with the application of ICT in pedagogy in changing situation.

Authors: Prabowo Agus , Junursyah Gusti Muhammad Lucky , Hidayat Wahyu
Published: January 2021

Magnetotelurik atau dikenal dengan MT merupakan metode geofisika pasif yang mengukur variasi medan elektromagnetik alami bumi untuk menyelediki struktur bawah permukaan bumi pada kedalaman 10 meter sampai 10 kilometer berdasarkan sifat resistivitas bawah permukaan. Kualitas data merupakan suatu kunci untuk mendapatkan hasil interpretasi yang baik. Permasalahan utama dari data magnetotelurik adalah pengaruh noise reguler yang dapat mempengaruhi signal ratio. Noise koheren umumnya dijumpai di daerah pengukuran yang dekat dengan sumber noise seperti instalasi listrik rumah tangga atau Saluran Udara Tegangan Ekstra Tinggi (SUTET). Untuk mengatasinya perlu dilakukan kajian analisis data berdasarkan parameter koherensi. Penelitian ini memanfaatkan data pengukuran di daerah padat penduduk di Kota Bandung Jawa Barat dengan jumlah 25 titik pengukuran. Untuk meningkatkan S/N ratio (Signal to Noise ratio) dilakukan beberapa treatment data yaitu dengan menggunakan robust, time series, dan edit XPR. Hasil dari pengolahan tersebut terbukti dapat menaikan nilai koherensi pada setiap titik pengukuran dengan rata-rata nilai koherensi dari 65.32% menjadi rata-rata nilai 83.85% atau mengalami kenaikan sebesar 18.54%. Penelitian ini membuktikan bahwa metode MT dapat dilakukan pada daerah perkotaan yang biasanya mempunyai banyak noise.

Authors: Kronfli Nadine , Dussault Camille , Bartlett Sofia , Fuchs Dennaye , Kaita Kelly , Harland Kate , Martin Brandi , Whitten-Nagle Cindy , Cox Joseph
Published: January 2021

BACKGROUND: Delivery of hepatitis C virus (HCV) care to people in prison is essential to HCV elimination. We aimed to describe current HCV care practices across Canada’s adult provincial prisons. METHODS: One representative per provincial prison health care team (except Ontario) was invited to participate in a web-based survey from January to June 2020. The outcomes of interest were HCV screening and treatment, treatment restrictions, and harm reduction services. The government ministry responsible for health care was determined. Non-nominal data were aggregated by province and ministry; descriptive statistical analyses were used to report outcomes. RESULTS: The survey was completed by 59/65 (91%) prisons. On-demand, risk-based, opt-in, and opt-out screening are offered by 19 (32%), 10 (17%), 18 (31%), and 9 (15%) prisons, respectively; 3 prisons offer no HCV screening. Liver fibrosis assessments are rare (8 prisons access transient elastography, and 15 use aspartate aminotransferase to platelet ratio or Fibrosis-4); 20 (34%) prisons lack linkage to care programs. Only 32 (54%) prisons have ever initiated HCV treatment on site. Incarceration length and a fibrosis staging of ≥F2 are the most common eligibility restrictions for treatment. Opioid agonist therapy is available in 83% of prisons; needle and syringe programs are not available anywhere. Systematic screening and greater access to treatment and harm reduction services are more common where the Ministry of Health is responsible. CONCLUSIONS: Tremendous variability exists in HCV screening and care practices across Canada’s provincial prisons. To advance HCV care, adopting opt-out screening and removing eligibility restrictions may be important initial strategies.
Epistemology of mobile journalism. A review
Authors: Canavilhas João
Published: January 2021

The fast and global way which has characterized the presence of mobile phones in society has sparked the interest of several sectors of activity, including journalism. From the early stages of production to distribution, and then through the characteristics of content and consumption patterns, numerous changes have been introduced by these mobile devices in an activity that has been undergoing one of the most uncertain moments in its long history. This uncertainty has stemmed from the decrease in income which was caused by the emergence of new competitors, such as the online press and social networks. This bibliographic review aims at identifying the changes caused by smartphones in the production distribution and consumption of news, analyzing its effect on the epistemology of journalism. We attempt to ascertain if the increasing influence of mobile technologies in the journalistic activity has changed its nature, improving the production of knowledge. Upon closer reading of the bibliography, it can be concluded that the versatility of mobile devices has facilitated a set of new possibilities not only for journalists, namely more autonomy and a reduction in the time spent between the event and the publication, but also for consumers, who can do a mobile and personalized consumption on their screens. Due to its ability to continuously adapt to the rhythm of contemporary society, mobile journalism has become more universal and has been confirmed as a form of knowledge insofar as it responds more effectively to consumers’ expectations, in particular young people’s, who are moving away from journalism and thus prevent the generational renewal of readers, something which is fundamental for the media business model.

Authors: Sun Jie , Sun Jie , Xing Liqun , Cheng Houcheng
Published: January 2021

Objective: To investigate the combined effects of the pollutants in source of drinking water for local
populations, mice models were used to test the subchronic toxicity for three months and chronic toxicity for
six months.
Methods and Results: By using proteomics approach (iTRAQ), we had identified 29 differentially
expressed proteins, which were related to amino acids metabolism, cell skeleton reorganization, apoptosis
and cancer genesis. Moreover, 12 out of these 29 identified proteins are located in mitochondria, indicating
drinking water source from Yangtze River Delta may exert oxidative damage stress to liver cells. All these
cellular processes had been verified by hepatic histopathology, real time-PCR, flow cytometry test and our
previous metabolic profile results.
Conclusion: All these tests indicated that drinking water source from Yangtze River Delta could accelerate
aging, enhance apoptosis and carcinogenesis risk.
The problem of trigonometric Fourier series multipliers of classes in λp,q spaces
Authors:   L.N. Gumilyov Eurasian National University, Bakhyt A. , Tleukhanova N.T. ,   L.N. Gumilyov Eurasian National University
Published: January 2021

In this article, we consider weighted spaces of numerical sequences λp,q, which are defined as sets of sequences a = {ak}^∞_k=1, for which the norm ||a||λp,q :=\sum^∞_k=1|ak|^q k^(q/p −1)^1/q<∞ is finite. In the case of non-increasing sequences, the norm of the space λp,q coincides with the norm of the classical Lorentz space lp,q. Necessary and sufficient conditions are obtained for embeddings of the space λp,q into the space λp1,q1. The interpolation properties of these spaces with respect to the real interpolation method are studied. It is shown that the scale of spaces λp,q is closed in the relative real interpolation method, as well as in relative to the complex interpolation method. A description of the dual space to the weighted space λp,q is obtained. Specifically, it is shown that the space is reflective, where p', q' are conjugate to the parameters p and q. The paper also studies the properties of the convolution operator in these spaces. The main result of this work is an O’Neil type inequality. The resulting inequality generalizes the classical Young-O’Neil inequality. The research methods are based on the interpolation theorems proved in this paper for the spaces λp,q.

We study boundedness properties of the classical (singular) Hilbert transform (Hf)(t) = p.v.1/π \int_R f(s)/(t − s)ds acting on Marcinkiewicz spaces. The Hilbert transform is a linear operator which arises from the study of boundary values of the real and imaginary parts of analytic functions. Questions involving the H arise therefore from the utilization of complex methods in Fourier analysis, for example. In particular, the H plays the crucial role in questions of norm-convergence of Fourier series and Fourier integrals. We consider the problem of what is the least rearrangement-invariant Banach function space F(R) such that H : Mφ(R) → F(R) is bounded for a fixed Marcinkiewicz space Mφ(R). We also show the existence of optimal rearrangement-invariant Banach function range on Marcinkiewicz spaces. We shall be referring to the space F(R) as the optimal range space for the operator H restricted to the domain Mφ(R) ⊆ Λϕ0(R). Similar constructions have been studied by J.Soria and P.Tradacete for the Hardy and Hardy type operators [1]. We use their ideas to obtain analogues of their some results for the H on Marcinkiewicz spaces.

New molluscicides in control of freshwater snails – intermediate hosts for causative agents of fascioliasis, paramphistomatosis and orientobilharziasis
Authors:   State Scientific Center for Quality Control and Circulation of Veterinary Drugs and Feed Additives of the Republic of Uzbekistan, Yuldashev N. E.
Published: January 2021

The article presents the results of studying the new and affordable means for freshwater snail control. It was found that mineral fertilizers – ammonium sulfate at a concentration of 0.05–0.2%, and potassium chloride at a concentration of 0.2–0.3% cause the death of snails of the genera Lymnae and Planorbis in 24–72 hours after application. Hydrogen peroxide at a concentration of 1:40000 and potassium permanganate at a concentration of 1:400000 also kill snails within 24–48 hours. Commonly available products also have pronounced molluscicidal action: table salt (NaCl) and baking soda (NaHCO3) at concentrations of 0.3–0.5%. Changing the pH in the habitat of snails, i.e. waters in snail biotopes, towards acidity (3.8–6.2) and alkalinity (8.0–8.4) also result in the death of snails, and the optimal environment is with pH = 7.8. These means are safe for animals and the environment, as evidenced by the results of experiments carried out on sheep, which were administered with molluscicide solutions forcibly using a probe in an amount of 1.5 liters and by free drinking for 3 days.
A conceptual study on investigating the effect of innovation, transformational leadership and work stressor on employee performance of SMEs in Pakistan
Authors: Nasir Jawaria , Ibrahim Rashidah Mohamad , Sarwar Muhammad Arslan
Published: January 2021

The understanding of elements contributing to employee performance of small and medium enterprises (SMEs) in Pakistan is still deficient. As the SMEs of Pakistan have had difficulty surviving in their early years, their initial failure rate is 90% -95%. Initially, this is a concept paper to provide useful insights into the relationship between organizational innovation, transformational leadership, and work stressor on employee performance of small and medium enterprises (SMEs) in Pakistan's manufacturing sector. The relationship between organizational innovation, transformational leadership, and work stressor and their effect on overall employee performance is established through a review of the literature. The mediating role of creativity was also an attempt to explore. In order to reach the optimum level of employee performance to increase the outcome of SMEs in Pakistan, it is mandatory to provide an open and supportive environment to employees so they can cultivate their creative ideas. This study mainly focused on the factors that directly influence employee creativity to ensure progress in employee performance. This study emerged from the fact that a very limited study is being carried out on this issue, and further research should be carried out in this field, especially in Pakistan. A model is proposed, and hypotheses will be developing and discussed based on theoretical considerations. The findings of this study can contribute to business practice by informing employee performance, improvement strategies. Business leaders could gain additional insights into strategies to engage and motivate employees to improve performance.

Designing Publicly Engaged First-Year Research Projects: Protest Art and Social Change
Authors: Draxler Bridget
Published: January 2021

This research assignment invites students in a first-year writing preparation course to explore topics of social justice through protest art. The course is taught at a small, private liberal arts college in a course for “emerging writers.” I have taught this assignment at a predominantly White institution (PWI), in a course where the majority of students are Black, Indigenous, and people of color (BIPOC). Students choose a work of protest art from the campus library special collections, frame the social justice issue it addresses in a local context using local sources, and then write an essay that puts that research in conversation with their own story. Finally, linking public history to civic engagement, students create their own protest art as a community call to action. The multimodal, local, and personal nature of this writing assignment creates opportunities for students to see the connections between their emerging identities as writers and civic actors. This assignment can create space for students to use their multilingual identities to speak back to the structural inequality within our institution, developing confidence in their own voices to call for meaningful change.
Out-of-Country Voting: Learning from Practice
Authors: Aman Adhy , Bakken Mette
Published: January 2021

The right to cast a vote in democratic elections stands at the core of people’s political rights. However, for citizens residing abroad the issue is less straightforward. Should people that have made a choice to live in another country still have voting rights in their country of origin? If so, should the state be responsible for facilitating their vote from abroad—or should citizens simply have the option of returning to exercise their right? Countries embarking on introducing out-of-country voting (OCV) may benefit from the experiences made in countries where voting from abroad is available. This report presents practical examples from different countries and highlights key issues to be considered before introducing out-of-country voting measures.

Authors: Тимофеев Борис
Published: January 2021

Данная работа представляет собой попытку перевода предисловия к «Толкованию на псалмы» Диодора Тарсийского. В данном отрывке Диодор описывает особенности написания и передачи Псалтири, рассуждает о правилах толкования. Его герменевтический подход предполагает два уровня прочтения Псалтири: буквальный и духовный. При этом для своего времени автор предлагает новый взгляд на мессианское провозвестие в псалмах и выступает резким критиком аллегорического толкования. Перевод сопровождается предисловием переводчика, в котором описываются основные идеи автора.

This article is an attempt to translate the preface to the interpretation of the psalms of Diodorus of Tarsus. In this passage, Diodorus describes the peculiarities of writing and transmitting the psaltery, discusses the rules of interpretation. His hermeneutic approach involves two levels of reading the Psalter: literal and spiritual. At the same time, for its time, the author offers a new look at the messianic proclamation in psalms and speaks out sharp criticism of the allegorical interpretation. The translation is accompanied by the preface of the translator, which describes the main ideas of the author.
On the Problem of the History of the Formula for the Consecration of the Holy Gifts in the Liturgy of St. John Chrysostom
Authors: Зимин Тихон
Published: January 2021

В статье обосновывается необходимость специального исследования важнейшего момента литургии, связанного с освящением евхаристических Даров. Для понимания смысла текста необходимо очистить его от позднейших наслоений. Также рассматривается история формирования формулы освящения Святых Даров. Автор прослеживает изменения данного текста, начиная с древнейших свидетельств, относящихся ко II в., вплоть до XIV в., когда окончательно сложился поздневизантийский чин анафоры. Сделан вывод о позднем характере слов: «преложив Духом Твоим Святым» - и о ещё более позднем времени формирования практики троекратного благословения Святых Даров.

The article substantiates the need for a special study of the most important moment of the liturgy associated with the consecration of Eucharistic Gifts. To understand the meaning of the text it is necessary to clear it from the later layers. Also the history of the formation of the formula of the consecration of the Sacred Gifts is considered. The author traces the changes in this text, beginning with the most ancient evidence relating to the II century continuing upto the XIV century, when the final formation of the late Byzantine anaphora took place. A conclusion is made about the lateness of the words «changing Them by Thy Holy Spirit» and about the even later time of formation of practice of the triple blessing of the Holy Gifts.

В статье затрагивается проблема зависимости византийского богословия от западного на примере христологического спора относительно изречения Спасителя: Отец Мой более Меня (Ин. 14, 28). Дискуссия, проходившая в период правления императора Мануила I Комнина, закончилась соборным решением в пользу латинской версии толкования указанного отрывка. Собор, созванный в 1166 г. в Константинополе, принял решение толковать Ин. 14, 28 применительно к человечеству Христа. Наряду с данной экзегезой, были приняты также и иные интерпретации, но акцент ставился именно на христологическом измерении, и были решительно отвергнуты толкования «мысленного разделения» и «общего лица». В статье рассматривается вопрос о влиянии на постановления Собора западного богослова Гуго Этериана, который пытался доказать, что Христос по человечеству даже в прославленном состоянии меньше Бога Отца.

The article touches upon the problem of dependence of Byzantine theology on Western theology on the example of the Christological dispute concerning the Savior’s saying: My Father is more than Me (Jn. 14, 28). The discussion that took place during the reign of Emperor Manuel I Comnenus ended with a Conciliar decision in favor of the Latin version of the interpretation of the passage. The Council of Constantinople, convened in 1166, decided to interpret Jn. 14, 28 as applied to the mankind of Christ. In addition to this exegesis, other interpretations were also adopted, but the main emphasis was placed on the Christological dimension and the interpretations of «mental separation» and «common person» were strongly rejected. The article deals with the question of the influence on the decisions of the Council of the Western theologian Hugo Etherian, who tried to prove that Christ in humanity, even in the glorious state is less than God the Father.

Kampung kapitan merupakan sebuah kampung etnis tionghoa yang ada di kota Palembang. Kampung ini berdiri setelah berakhirnya masa pemerintahan Kesultanan Palembang dikarenakan penjajahan Belanda pada tahun 1821. Disini dibangunlah rumah-rumah yang menjadi kediaman masyarakat Cina. Hal ini menciptakan sebuah kawasan permukiman yang dimana dipengaruhi oleh tiga budaya yaitu budaya Cina, Belanda, dan Palembang. Pencampuran budaya ini membuat kawasan ini memiliki ciri khas rumah tradisional yang unik jika dibandingkan dengan rumah limas tradisonal Palembang pada umumnya. Akan tetapi identitas rumah tradisional ini terancam semakin menghilang karena kurangnya perawatan rumah dari pemilik rumah. Walau beberapa rumah sudah terdaftar sebagai bangunan cagar budaya nasional, masih kurangnya tindakan dari pemerintah daerah untuk mengkonservasi rumah-rumah ini. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengidentifikasi arsitektur rumah tradisional di kawasan Kampung Kapitan sebagai dokumentasi yang bermanfaat untuk kajian koservasi bangunan bersejarah. Metode penelitian yang digunakan adalah diskriptif kualitatif yang dimana dilakukannya survei lapangan lalu didukung dengan studi kepustakaan. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan terjadinya pencampuran langgam budaya pada elemen bangunan pola ruang, fasad, bahan bangunan, sistem konstruksi, dan ornamen di rumah tradisional Kampung Kapitan

EVALUATION OF MULTIPLE TRAP TYPES FOR THE CAPTURE OF VECTOR MOSQUITOES OF EASTERN EQUINE ENCEPHALITIS VIRUS IN SAINT JOHNS COUNTY, FLORIDA
Authors: Dixon Daniel
Published: January 2021

Eastern equine encephalitis virus (EEEV) is a highly dangerous alphavirus vectored by multiple mosquito species in the United states. Vector surveillance and control is used to prevent the spread of EEEV, so highly efficient and attractive traps are needed to accurately assess mosquito abundance. Mosquitoes can be captured in various physiological states (host-seeking, gravid, resting, etc.), depending on what trap type is used. this study analyzed 6 trap types to determine which captured the most EEEV vectors in saint Johns county. the trap types analyzed were the biogents sentinel trap, centers for Disease control (cDc) Light trap, the sentinel Mosquito Arbovirus capture Kit, Mosquito Magnet X trap, cDc resting trap, and gravid traps. For the gravid traps, two different infusions were tested: hay infusion and cattail infusion. Aedes atlanticus Dyar and Knab was the most abundant EEEV vector captured in this study. Other EEEV vectors collected were Aedes vexans (Meigen), Culex erraticus (Dyar and Knab), and Culex nigripalpus theobald. bG traps caught the highest abundance of EEEV vectors (1520 ± 743) compared to all the other trap types analyzed. Despite capturing multiple EEEV vectors during the testing period at the chosen site, Culiseta melanura (coquillett) and Coquillettidia perturbans (Walker) were never captured.
GRAVID INFUSION WATER COMPARISON FOR COLLECTION OF THE WEST NILE VIRUS VECTOR CULEX QUINQUEFASCIATUS SAY
Authors: Acevedo Nicholas
Published: January 2021

Gravid traps are an important tool in mosquito surveillance for the collection of gravid female mosquitoes that can be screened for arboviruses. The type of infusion water used is vital in targeting certain mosquito species, especially the West Nile vector, Culex quinquefasciatus Say. The gold standard of infusions is a whey protein mixture but is expensive and time consuming to make. The current study compared a cattail infusion to whey protein to determine if it is as effective at collecting Cx. quinquefasciatus as the current standard. If as attractive, the cattail infusion could be a more economical and less time-consuming option for use in WNV surveillance. Three sites were used to evaluate the efficacy of cattail infusion water with whey protein mixture. Each site had a trap with 100% whey protein, one with 100% cattail infusion and one with 50% cattail water infusion. All 9 traps were operated for 24 hours for seven trap nights. Collected mosquitoes were identified, speciated, and physiological stage was assessed. There was no statistically significant difference in the total number of mosquitoes, gravid female, and total number of females amongst the three types of infusions, at any of the sites for the collection of Cx. quinquefasciatus. These results demonstrate that a cattail infusion can be used as a more economical and less labor-intensive alternative to whey protein for the collection of Cx. quinquefasciatus.
