Quite often, the scientific community emphasizes the need to stimulate spatial development and form the most optimal structure of economic space in order to ensure sustainable and integrated development of territories. Despite the development and complexity of the research methodology, existing models and theories of spatial topics do not fully reflect the real picture of the organization of economic space in various countries of the world. However, it is the joint study of the theoretical and methodological foundations of spatial and regional economics and the study of domestic and foreign experiences of spatial organization that makes it possible to implement a full-fledged transformation of the Russian economy in a spatial context. The purpose of this article is to study the spatial organization of the Northern territories of a number of foreign countries and develop proposals on this basis to ensure the spatial development of the Northern and Arctic regions of the Russian Federation. The research used the monographic method, methods of comparative analysis and synthesis of information obtained, as well as graphical and tabular methods of data visualization. The study found that economic space acquires its actual configuration through distribution across economic agents and settlements and through relationships and communication that occur at the stages of production, distribution, exchange, and consumption. The study of the economic space specificity in the Northern territories of foreign countries helped to identify the main factors and conditions for forming the production and settlement frameworks. Based on the results obtained, the authorsdeveloped proposals aimed at improving spatial organization of the Northern and Arctic territories of the Russian Federation. The nclusions contribute to the development of ideas on spatial organization of territories and can be used in the implementation of government policies in the field of spatial and regional development.

In recent years, Russia has been characterized by a reduction in government spending on the activities of social sectors. This trend requires a search for possible solutions for the problem of providing residents with high-quality and affordable social, medical, and rehabilitation services. In such conditions, the issue of using the potential of social entrepreneurship in the development of the state’s traditional sectors of social infrastructure ––health care, education, etc. This is of particular relevance for the Russian Arctic, where qualitative growth of the economy is impossible without the implementation of measures aimed at improving the level and quality of life of the population. However, in the Arctic, formation of human capital is associated with much greater costs and difficulties than in non-Arctic territories.In this regard, the aim of the work was to study the potential of social entrepreneurship in development of social infrastructure of the Russian Arctic territories. Social entrepreneurship, defined both as an internal resource and a factor of territory self-development, is one of the innovative solutions aimed at improving effectiveness of social investments.This study showed that expanding the access of social enterprises to work in the sectors of social infrastructure will not only increase availability, quality and diversity of social services in a particular region of the Arctic, but will also have a positive impact on the growth of social and entrepreneurial activities of residents of these territories.Practical significance of the results obtained is determined by the possibility of their application in the practice of public administration, as a basis for informed decision-making, as well as a basisfor analytical research on social entrepreneurship in the Russian Arctic, individual regions and the country as a whole.

Published: November 2020

We have performed a spectral decomposition to search for dual active galactic nuclei (DAGNs) in the Sloan Digital Sky Survey (SDSS) quasars with z < 0.25. Potential DAGN candidates are searched by referencing velocity offsets and spectral shapes of double-peaked [O iii] lines of known DAGNs. Out of 1271 SDSS quasars, we have identified 77 DAGN candidates. Optical and mid-infrared (MIR) diagnostic diagrams are used to investigate the ionizing source in the DAGN candidates. The optical diagnostic analysis suggests 93% of them are powered by AGNs, and MIR diagnostic analysis suggests 97% are powered by AGNs. About one-third of the SDSS images of the DAGN candidates show signs of tidal interaction, but we are unable to identify double nuclei in most of them due to the low spatial resolution of the archival imaging data available for most of the sample. The radio-loud fraction of the DAGN candidates (∼10%) is similar to that of typical AGNs.

The tropical Andes are known to be the richest and most diverse place on earth. This mountainous region covers almost one third of the Peruvian territory, and its herpetofauna remains poorly known. The lizard genusStenocercusDuméril & Bibron, 1837 contains 69 species and most of them occur in the tropical Andes, although some exist as high as 4000 m a.s.l. The examination of newly collected material from the Andes of northern Peru in the Department of Amazonas reveals four new species ofStenocercuswhich we describe below. Of these four new species, three inhabit the ecoregion of Peruvian Yungas at elevations of 1460 to 2370 m a.s.l., and one the Marañón dry forest ecoregion at elevations of 1340 to 1470 m a.s.l. Additionally, we provide new data about coloration, natural history and distribution of the poorly knownS. aculeatusO’Shaughnessy, 1879; and discuss the identity of some populations ofS. prionotusCadle, 2001 andS. scapularisBoulenger, 1901.

Authors: Batista Zimmer Nelson , Assmann Saraiva Juracy Ignez
Published: November 2020

A permanência do estilo criado por Chanel e sua disseminação são constatáveis na atualidade em lojas de departamentos populares e por meio de signos que caracterizam a marca, fenômeno explicado pela globalização mercadológica, apontada por Canclini (1996, 2007) e por Hall (2006), e pelas discussões sobre consumo e identidade levantadas por Bauman (2008). Este artigo analisa o desenvolvimento do estilo Chanel e de seus signos, retomando dados biográficos da estilista, registrados por Greenhalgh (2010), Karbo (2010), Moreira (2002) e Picardie (2011), e sustenta o argumento da perenidade do estilo Chanel não só em aspectos históricos, referentes à instalação e à afirmação da grife no mercado, mas também em pesquisa empírica, por meio da qual se identificaram produtos que imitam originais ou que se inspiram em seu estilo. O artigo traz registros fotográficos do comércio do centro de Porto Alegre/RS, para exemplificar, por meio do estilo Chanel, a adesão, da contemporaneidade, a padrões identitários múltiplos.

Authors: Bogdan I. V. , Gurylina M. V. , Chistyakova D. P.
Published: November 2020

Background. Timely and competent provision of first aid impacts death prevention in an emergency. A significant part of emergencies involves people without medical education. The purpose. To measure self-esteem and real knowledge of the population about first aid provision. Material and methods. The study was conducted using the street polling method (CAPI, 800 residents), the sample represented the Moscow population by gender, age (18+), district. Results. 66% of respondents note a lack of awareness of the rules of first aid, 25% note a complete lack of knowledge. Greater confidence in knowledge is shown by respondents who have completed specialized courses, as well as training at work. 30% of the respondents had experience in helping relatives or bystanders. In cases of respiratory and circulatory arrest, assistance was provided even by those respondents who do not know how to provide cardiopulmonary resuscitation. Most of the respondents (87%) were able to name emergency phone numbers, but a third of the respondents made significant mistakes. The respondents do not seek to get additional education, as only 58% want to undergo training including 39% who immediately said that they «have no time for it». Discussion. The study showed insufficient levels of competence gained from the available sources of information, both in terms of confidence in gained knowledge and real knowledge. This correlates with other studies. The older population is one of the most “vulnerable” groups in terms of competence. Conclusion. The research data can be used to improve the information policy on this issue.

Generation of 3D Fractal Images for Mandelbrot and Julia Sets
Authors: Rama Bulusu , Mishra Jibitesh
Published: November 2020

Fractals provide an innovative method for generating 3D images of real-world objects by using computational modelling algorithms based on the imperatives of self-similarity, scale invariance, and dimensionality. Images such as coastlines, terrains, cloud mountains, and most interestingly, random shapes composed of curves, sets of curves, etc. present a multivaried spectrum of fractals usage in domains ranging from multi-coloured, multi-patterned fractal landscapes of natural geographic entities, image compression to even modelling of molecular ecosystems. Fractal geometry provides a basis for modelling the infinite detail found in nature. Fractals contain their scale down, rotate and skew replicas embedded in them. Many different types of fractals have come into limelight since their origin. This paper explains the generation of two famous types of fractals, namely the Mandelbrot Set and Julia Set, the3D rendering of which gives a real-world look and feel in the world of fractal images.
Vowel classification based approach for Telugu Text-to-Speech System using symbol concatenation
Authors: Chaudhur Pamela , Kumar K Vinod
Published: November 2020

Telugu is one of the oldest languages in India. This paper describes the development of Telugu Text-to-Speech System (TTS) using vowel classification. Vowels are most important class of sound in most Indian languages. The duration of vowel is longer than consonants and is most significant. Here vowels are categorized as starting middle and end according to the position of occurrence in a word. The algorithm developed by us involves analysis of a sentence in terms of words and then symbols involving combination of pure consonants and vowels. Wave files are being merged as per the requirement to generate the modified consonants influenced by deergalu (vowel sign) and yuktaksharas generate the speech from a text. Speech unit database consisting of vowels (starting, middle and end) and consonants is developed. We evaluated our TTS using Mean Opinion Score (MOS) for intelligibility and voice quality with and without using vowel classification from sixty five listeners, and got better results with vowel classification.

Image processing is a task of analysing the image and produces a resultant output in linear way. Image processing tasks are widely used in many applications domains, including medical imaging, industrial manufacturing, entertainment and security systems. Often the size of the image is very large, the processing time has to be very small and usually real-time constraints have to be met. The image analysis requires a large amount of memory and cpu performance, to cope this problem image processing task is parallelized. Parallelism of image analysis task becomes a key factor for processing a huge raw image data. Parallelization allows a scalable and flexible resource management and reduces a time for developing image analysis program. This paper presenting, the automatic parallelization of image processing task in a distributed system, in which suitable subtasks for parallel processing are extracted and mapped with the components of distributed system. This paper presents different design issues of parallel image processing in distributed system. Which helps the image analysis tasks that how to post processing the image in parallel. This technique is quite interactive especially when developing parallel program, as this requires little efforts for finding a suitable distribution of program module and data.

To achieve the objectives of da'wah, these general objectives must first be formulated into more operational and evaluated objectives. In addition, strategic planning, systematic organization, good implementation, orderly, directness, and well-managed supervision of the activities to be achieved are also needed. The administration of the indictment can run effectively and efficiently when it has been prepared and planned well in advance. With planning, the implementation of da'wah can run in a more directed and orderly manner, so that it can consider what activities should take precedence and which activities should be pursued. On this basis, the activities of da'wah can be ordered in such a way, step by step that leads to the achievement of the goals and objectives set. Planning also allows the selection of appropriate actions, in accordance with the situations and conditions that are actually faced at the time the da'wah is held.
Jurnalis Sebagai Dai di Media

Published: November 2020

In the current reformation era marked by the rise of mass media as a means of mass communication and a means of forming public opinion, preachers, missionary activists, and Muslims. A journalist should be able to use the mass media to do da'wah as a worship field. A journalist who utilizes the mass media, especially printed media, carries out his da'wah that can be called a preacher 'who preaches bil qalam. This da'wah is called the da'wah bil qalam which basically conveys information about God, about nature and about the hereafter, and the value of eternity of life. Da'wah bil qalam is da'wah through printed media. Given the advances in information technology that enable a person to communicate intensely and cause the message of preaching to spread as widely as possible, preaching through writing, absolutely makes use of advances in information technology. This is where the role of Muslim Journalists takes place of a preacher who spreads goodness to humans.
Potential of Leucaena (Leucaena leucocephala) for Compensatory Growth on Anglo-Nubian Crossbred Male Goats
Authors: PRASETIANTI Dwinta , CHOTCHUTIMA Songyos , KONGMUN Phongthorn , PRASANPANICH Somkiert
Published: November 2020

This study was carried out to evaluate the potential of leucaena (Leucaena leucocephala) as the sole diet after restriction of feeding in order to elevate compensatory growth during re-alimentation. Twelve Anglo-Nubian crossbred male goats, with an average body weight of 17.50 kg, were assigned to 3 treatments, with 4 replicates, in a completely randomized design (CRD), where all treatments were under 3 feeding regimes, viz. pre-feed restriction, feed restriction, and re-alimentation. All animals were allotted to normal feeding and fed with Pangola hay and meal concentrate to promote an average daily gain (ADG) of 100 g in the initial period for 3 weeks. During the feed restriction period, animals in Treatment 1 were continuously fed at the same level as in the pre-restriction (normal growth/control group), while the animals in Treatments 2 and 3 (restricted groups) were kept at feeding levels of 47.5 and 67.5 % below maintenance, based on NRC (2007), for 4 weeks. In the final period of re-alimentation (7 weeks), the normal growth group was given Pangola hay and meal concentrate at the same level as in the pre-restriction period while restricted groups were subjected to ad libitum sole leucaena feeding until the end of the trial. The results showed that average daily gain (ADG) and feed intake did not differ among the treatments during the pre-feed restriction while, in the restriction feeding period, the restricted groups had lower means (P < 0.01) than the normal growth group. In the re-alimentation period, total dry matter intake was not significantly different among treatments. It is pointed that there were 2 sub-periods during the re-alimentation period where total dry matter intake during the compensatory growth and the normal growth were not significantly different. However, the compensatory growth had been achieved within 2 weeks, indicating a higher ADG of 141.25 and 158.57 g in the restricted groups, compared to 106 g in the control group. Afterwards, the sub-period of normal growth (5 weeks) was followed with a lower ADG in the restricted groups than that in the control group. It can be concluded that the potential of single leucaena feeding for compensatory growth after restriction feeding can be achieved within a short period during re-alimentation, due to the limitation of fiber enrichment in leucaena.

Neologism as a Dissection of Language and Society: Application in an Advanced Content-and-Language Korean Course
Authors: Kim Eunae
Published: November 2020

Neologism has become one of the most popular trends in current media, becoming an important component of communicative skills for Korean as a Foreign Language (KFL) students. This article constructs a set of inquiry-based assignments in an advanced content-and-language course at a private university in the Northeastern region of the United States. Neologism in KFL classrooms can serve two purposes: (a) expand vocabulary repertoire and (b) gain deeper understanding of cultural and social issues. Two examples based on the words 소확행 (‘small but guaranteed happiness’) and 헬조선 (‘hell Korea’) are presented in this article to provide examples of how neologisms can be used as a channel for diverse and enriching discussions and assignments in KFL classrooms. This article supports the use of teaching neologisms in KFL classrooms and further encourages instructors to incorporate social, cultural, and political aspects into their curriculum.

Authors: Jovanović Tatjana , Arsenijević Olja
Published: November 2020

Employees are the key in any business because the outcome of a business depends on their achievement. Their importance is multiplied when dealing with business in times of crisis. Under such conditions, some companies make a strategic decision to move towards change and transform their business. In order to achieve the vision, it is necessary, on the one hand, to transform the business from the root, and to change the business culture on the other, align it with new plans, change the way of work and the way of thinking of employees. In this context, it is necessary to include employees in the entire transformation as soon as possible, and the presented case study of Philip Morris Serbia just illustrates this example. By analyzing secondary data, the text considers the significance of the strategic role of HRM, primarily training and development as a means to help employees keep pace with change, lead them and grow within the organization. Particular emphasis is placed on how through a well-conceived and embedded HR strategy with the overall direction of business transformation, turbulent times within the company and beyond can be transformed into an opportunity to create a competitive advantage.
Mass demonstrattions and the fall of Vojvodina regime in 1988.
Authors: Vukadinović Igor
Published: November 2020

The main cause of demonstrations was Vojvodina leadership's persistent refusal to accept changes to the Constitution that would confirm the sovereignty of Serbia in its autonomous provinces. After Slobodan Milosevic rose to power, the Serbian authorities developed two different policies regarding autonomous provinces. In case of Vojvodina, the main emphasis was on using the lack of democratic capacity and legitimacy of the leadership in Vojvodina, while leadership of Kosovo was the subject of party pressure through the League of Communists of Yugoslavia. Leadership of Vojvodina, which has been decisively and confidently rejecting any thought in which Vojvodina could be politically subordinated to the Republic, was confused by the July and August demonstrations. In absence of finding an adequate response to the new situation, leadership remained passive, which ultimately led to complete paralysis of Vojvodina government. The confusion and passiveness of the main Vojvodina communists during the summer and autumn of 1988. indicates that demonstrations hit their weakest point - democratic capacity. It turned out that the stern attitude of Vojvodina Communists towards Serbia was not supported by the population of Vojvodina, and that the province government policy was not legitimate.. Second key factor in the Anti-bureaucratic revolution in Vojvodina was the influence of media, which was controlled by the Serbian leader Slobodan Milosevic. The anti-bureaucratic revolution in Vojvodina represents a historical phenomenon of a unique kind, which at the same time contains the elements of the Revolutions of 1989, in which Eastern European regimes were down due to the lack of their own legitimacy and under the burst of the popular rebellion, as well as elements of the "Cultural Revolution" in China, when the most powerful man of the party used and manipulated national dissatisfaction in order to remove political opponents and reduce the influence of competitive fractions in the party.

Published: November 2020

The aim of this study was to analyze the characteristics of reading and the orthographic level of handwriting in children with dysgraphic handwriting and children with typical development in the early grades of primary school. The research sample consisted of 94 children in the 3rd and 4th grades of primary school. The Handwriting Dysgraphia Assessment Test was used to assess the level of handwriting dysgraphia, while the analysis of the orhographic level of handwriting involved the assessment of the frequency and type of orthographic errors. The Three-Dimensional Reading Test was used in the second stage of research. Findings show the overall prevalence of handwriting dysgraphia in 13.8% of children, and a greater prevalence in boys (69.1%) relative to girls (30.9%). In the group of children with dysgraphic handwriting, 53.8% were categorized as having "graphomotor dysgraphia", while 46.2% were categorized as having "language dysgraphia". The study results suggest that there are no statistically significant differences between 3rd and 4th grade students in the application of orthographic rules to all writing tasks (t=1,33; df=11; p=0,17). Children with dysgraphic handwriting achieved poorer results on all writing tasks relative to children with typical development. A comparison of results of children with dysgraphic handwriting and children with typical development did not reveal statistically significant differences in reading speed tasks (t=1,10; df=18; p=0,32), number of mistakes (t=0,73; df=21; p=0,46), and reading comprehension (t=0,66; df=14; p=0,51). Increasing awareness of aspects of writing and reading where difficulties may occur, but also of aspects that represent children's developmental strengths, along with an effective assessment of language and cognitive abilities, would significantly improve the quality of the teaching process.
Propaganda in a function of a systemic instrumentalization of media for ultra-nationalist purposes
Authors: Filipović Aleksandar , Spaić Ivana
Published: November 2020

Propaganda and its elements are an inseparable part of everyday life. In a digital age, when, in every second, a vast amount of information is exchanged, the possibilities and variations of propaganda techniques application are proportionally high. The majority of these propaganda messages that can be seen every time we turn on a device, or just go outside and look around are the messages of economic propaganda. Every time we hear a speech of a corporate or government official, we hear a carefully created and delivered message put together by public relations experts, which as well, by its genesis, belongs to propaganda. Still, the subject of this paper is propaganda, which is much more malicious in its origins and manifestations, and that is propaganda for ultranationalist purposes. In this paper, the authors first consider the etiological and historical aspects of propaganda focusing on those forms that had the most devastating effects. Propaganda predates mass media, but it is their conjunction that helped propaganda to reach a maximum capacity of its impact. Therefore, the authors analyze the correlation between propagandists, propaganda, and mass media.
What Principles and Applications of Statistics Should Be Taught in High School and Junior College?
Authors: Burr Irving W.
Published: November 2020

A word or two on the nature and importance of statistics might not he amiss. A series of numerical results which vary from measurement to measurement, person to person, place to place, time to time, or object to object are almost certain to be affected and to vary, at least partly, because of random causes or “chance.” Such data, whether we like it or not, are statistical data. In analyzing such statistical data and making decisions from them, it is only natural that one should use methods primarily designed for such data, namely, statistical methods. Such methods can minimize the chances of wrong decisions and even estimate the probability of error, and in addition can enable one to learn things from statistical data which would otherwise be missed altogether. Furthermore they can facilitate the design of experiments from which a maximum of information may accrue. Limitations of space preclude the giving of illustrations to show how ubiquitous and important chance variation is. Suffice it to say that statistical methods and thinking are essential to maximum success in fields such as the following: education and psychology, biology, economics, government, actuarial science, manufacturing, and all experimental physical science.

Arithmetic for Kindergarteners
Authors: Boyce Loretta U.
Published: November 2020

I am always interested in the comments of people when they learn that I teach kindergarten. Immediately they seem to feel that I am “lucky” or relieved of many responsibilities encountered by the grade teachers. The majority of people feel that kindergarten is a place where children cut, sing, paste, and enjoy rhythms until they reach the age of six. Unfortunately, many kindergartens serve for that purpose alone. Ideally, the kindergarten serves a far greater purpose. It is a place where children develop as individuals and prepare for future studies.

Mathematics Recreations
Authors: Bakst Aaron
Published: November 2020

Many teachers of mathematics believe that a mathematical recreation is a species of its own. In other words, not all mathematical situations may be turned into mathematical recreations. This department proposes to explode this misconception once and for all. Any mathematical situation, if appropriately treated, may become a mathematical recreation. While “exploding” the above misconception, this department will reveal some of the “secrets of the trade” so that any mathematics teacher may become a creator of mathematical recreations.
Concerning the First Course in Algebra
Authors: Bernhardt Herbert
Published: November 2020

In the April, 1950 issue of The Mathematics Teacher William R. Ransom1 suggests a more meaningful approach to the teaching of combination of like terms than that usually found in the first course in algebra. The present paper describes an attempt to apply a somewhat similar point of view to the entire beginning course in algebra.

Early in May 1950, Mr. H. W. Charles-worth, President of the National Council of Teacher of Mathematics, instructed that initial steps be taken toward organizing a Speakers' Bureau service for Affiliated Groups. This action was taken as an outgrowth of a unanimous request for such service expressed by the First Delegate Assembly at Chicago in April 1950.
An Illustration of the Common Statistical Averages
Authors: Hallerberg Arthur E.
Published: November 2020

In order to illustrate the use of some of the more common measures of central tendency in the field of statistics, it is usually necessary to refer to frequency distributions based upon different kinds of observations or measurements. This is natural and appropriate, since such measures as the arithmetic mean, the mode, and the median, do not always give equally good representative values for a given set of numerical data. Different types of frequency distributions (i.e., groupings of data into classes with the corresponding frequency of each class), or at least different distributions of the same general type, must therefore be used to illustrate these statistical averages and to show when each gives a more typical value.

Mathematics in the Junior High School: Who teaches algebra to whom?
Authors: Truscolt George , Jenkins Desmond T. , Korb Connell
Published: November 2020

The mathematics program in our public schools presents a whole series of paradoxes. With our culture becoming increasingly quantitative in all its aspects, our adult population continues to be mathematically illiterate. With our world leadership and the survival of a democratic civilization dependent on our technical supremacy, our supply of technical leaders is drying up at the source. The series of paradoxes extends down to specifics of the program: while our high school graduates are under criticism for arithmetic deficiencies, there is parental pressure for pupils to choose algebra and geometry rather than general mathematics.
