An Aria by František Škroup for Halévy’s opera La Juive
Authors: Pospíšil Milan
Published: January 2022

At the Czech Museum of Music there is a manuscript of an aria composed by František Škroup as an insertion for Halévy’s opera La Juive. As the conductor of the Estates Theatre, Škroup wrote it for the first German-language performance of the opera in Prague in 1838. The aria was inserted into the role of Eudoxie/Isabella so the singer of the part, Katharina Podhorsky, would get to present herself as a soloist, having been denied that opportunity by the cuts in the printed score of Halévy’s opera. The aria was suitably placed at the beginning of Act IV, but the German text by an unknown author departs from the drama’s sequence of cause and effect found Scribe’s libretto. The insertion takes the form of a two-part aria (Cantabile – Cabaletta) of the kind used for large vocal numbers in emotionally intense situations. The composition conforms to the practice at that time of inserting arias by different composers into operas, and Podhorsky also engaged in this practice. The coloratura writing at the conclusion of the aria was apparently intended to feature her strengths as a singer.
Promoting Smetana’s Bartered Bride (Prodaná nevěsta) in Paris
Authors: Viktorová Kateřina
Published: January 2022

The Bartered Bride had to take a thorny path to reach the stage in Paris. Sixty years passed between the first attempts while Smetana was still living and the premiere at the Opéra-Comique. There were many people from the spheres of culture and politics involved in promoting the performing of The Bartered Bride in Paris, the most important centre of opera in those days. Foremost among them was Princess Pauline von Metternich, the French baritone Victor Maurel who held the first fragmentary performance of the opera in 1897 in his salon with soloists from the Opéra-Comique, the director of the National Theatre František A. Šubert, the French conductor Charles Lamoureux, the physician and translator Raoul Blondel, the violinist Jan Kubelík, the theatre director Gabriel Astruc, and the wife of the Czechoslovak ambassador in Paris Pavla Osuská. However, the Paris premiere of The Bartered Bride in 1928 did not earn the opera a more permanent place at that city’s theatres.
Musical Motifs in Graphic Decorations of Nicolas Vallet’s Lute Tablatures (1615–1616)
Authors: Paulová Eva
Published: January 2022

The National Museum – Czech Museum of Music holds an important source – a bundled collection of three printed sets of lute tablature by Nicolas Vallet, which contains parts I and II of Le Secret des Muses (1615, 1616) and the psalm collection Vingt et un pseaumes de David (1615). In our examination of graphic motifs, we focused on musical motifs worked into the decorating of initials and especially on depictions of the Biblical figure of King David with a lute, of lutenists, and of the lutes themselves. The schematic depictions of the instrument did not provide any new organological discoveries, but instead confirmed the popularity of the lute as a symbol. Vallet’s tablatures were printed from original full-page copper engraving plates and not from individual blocks, as was customary. It is also for this reason that the initials, decorated with genre pictures and Biblical scenes, have merited extraordinary attention.

Published: January 2022

The issue of the relationship and interconnection of language and culture has always aroused considerable interest of many linguists, who, despite the originality of approaches to this issue, consider culture and language in interaction. Modern linguistics seeks to comprehend the cultural consciousness of a single nation through linguistic means. International tourism continues to grow and diversify exponentially, creating situations of intense language contact and giving rise to unexpected sociolinguistic dynamics and phenomena.
MATHETICO TRANSDISIPLINARY BASES OF INNOVATION IN EDUCATION
Authors:   Lecturer, Chirchik State Pedagogical Institute, Uzbekistan, Kushnazarova Yulduzkhon Kulnazarovna
Published: January 2022

Global paradigms "cover all types of activity and underlie the shift from the deterministic stochastic and to the third synergetic paradigm." The paradigm can be described using three keywords: self-organization, open systems, non-linearity. This work uses the data tabulation method and the graphical presentation of the results. The philosophy of postmodernism is a motor speech between a person and his reality. The value of education is not to memorize facts, to encourage the brain to think. In other words, postmodernism is "a new model of thinking that refuses to embrace traditionalism without reflection and reappraisal." In postmodernism, all similar, different and non-traditional data and knowledge coexist. Thus, if in modernism educational services are important, if they are useful, then in postmodernism the usefulness of a product or service is determined by the emotions of the person for whom the product was created. From this point of view, the educational product and service should be memorable.

Estudio material por FTIR-ATR y examen morfológico para el uso de tubos de encofrado como soporte de almacenaje de tapices
Authors: López Rey María , Chércoles Asensio Ruth
Published: January 2022

Actualmente, se recomienda el almacenamiento de los tapices enrollados sobre un soporte cilíndrico. Los cilindros ideales están fabricados con cartón libre de ácido o polietileno de alta densidad, sin embargo el alto precio y la escasa comercialización de los mismos hace que sea frecuente recurrir a materiales de construcción, aunque es necesario comprobar su compatibilidad con los tapices, y para ello se debe conocer su composición química y sus propiedades físicas.
En este trabajo se estudian las propiedades químicas de componentes mayoritarios por espectroscopia de infrarrojos por transformada de Fourier con dispositivo ATR acoplado (FTIR-ATR), análisis elemental con microscopía electrónica de barrido con energías dispersivas de rayos X (MEB-EDX) y examen morfológico por técnicas microscópicas de tubos de encofrado como solución ofrecida por la industria de la construcción para su utilización como soporte de almacenaje para tapices. Además, se muestra un ejemplo práctico de uso, empleándolos para el almacenaje de la colección de Tapices de Carmen y Justo Fernández, conservada en la Biblioteca Histórica Marqués de Valdecilla de la Universidad Complutense.

A Novel Approach for Developing Efficient and Convenient Short Assessments to Approximate a Long Assessment
Authors: Sun Yuan Hong , Luo Hong , Lee Kang
Published: January 2022

This paper describes a novel Long to Short approach that uses machine learning to develop efficient and convenient short assessments to approximate a long assessment. This approach is applicable to any assessments used to assess people’s behaviors, opinions, attitudes, mental and physical states, traits, aptitudes, abilities, and mastery of a subject matter. We demonstrated the Long to Short approach on the Depression Anxiety Stress Scale (DASS-42) for assessing anxiety levels in adults. We first obtained data for the original assessment from a large sample of participants. We then derived the total scores from participants’ responses to all items of the long assessment as the ground truths. Next, we used feature selection techniques to select participants’ responses to a subset of items of the long assessment to predict the ground truths accurately. We then trained machine learning models that uses the minimal number of items needed to achieve the prediction accuracy similar to that when the responses to all items of the whole long assessment are used. We generated all possible combinations of minimal number of items to create multiple short assessments of similar predictive accuracies for use if the short assessment is to be done repeatedly. Finally, we implemented the short anxiety assessments in a web application for convenient use with any future participant of the assessment.
Restaurant Customers' Quality Expectations
Authors: Planinc Saša , Kukanja Marko
Published: January 2022

This study examines changes in restaurant customers' quality expectations prior to and after the COVID-19 pandemic. The purpose of this study is to investigate if and how restaurant customers' quality expectations have changed during the pandemic. In addition, the present research also aims to determine which marketing (7P) quality dimensions will best explain customers' expectations in the post-COVID era. With a snowball sampling method, a total of 421 valid online questionnaires were obtained. The structured questionnaire included 42 marketing quality indicators belonging to the seven marketing dimensions. In addition, exploratory factor analyses and a sign test were used to assess differences in quality expectations. Results indicate statistically significant differences in customers' quality expectations before and after the pandemic. Four factors (Product-Physical Evidence, Promotion, People, and Price) best explained customers' expectations before and five factors (Product-Physical Evidence, Placement-Promotion, People, Price, and Processes) after the crisis. This paper contributes to the marketing and restaurant management literature by providing a detailed understanding of the importance of the different marketing indicators before and after the crisis. By applying a 7P research concept, we have also facilitated an international benchmarking process. The conclusion provides suggestions for future research directions and information for restaurant managers.
Small Tourism Businesses Adapting to the New Normal
Authors: Fuchs Kevin
Published: January 2022

It is reasonable to state that the impact on Thailand’s economy has been severe due to the lack of international tourists. In particular, the mass-tourist destination Phuket has suffered economic consequences due to a plunge in the number of international passenger arrivals and inadequate domestic tourists to fill their places. This paper aims to identify inadequacies to help stakeholders more effectively manage tourism development amid COVID-19, as well as to contribute to the body of knowledge and establish a baseline that recommends a potential area of interest for future quantitative research. This case study utilizes a variety of primary and secondary data sources. The empirical data for this study were collected through a series of semi-structured interviews with local small business owners. After a rigorous review process, a total of 21 in-depth interviews were included in the content analysis. This research not only disclosed a high level of resilience amongst the small local business owner community but revealed that Phuket continues to depend strongly on international tourism to manage its local economy sustainably. This research offers insights into the recent tourism developments during the COVID-19 global pandemic and provides a baseline for future studies that seek to validate results through quantitative methods of inquiry. Furthermore, it offers guidance for policymakers that seek recommendations for implementing good governance strategies.
Work in Hotels Under Conditions Related to the Covid-19 Disease
Authors: Šuligoj Metod
Published: January 2022

Hotel employees are at increased risk of infection with SARS-Cov-2. Therefore, governments have taken many systematic measures to protect employees and employers (hoteliers). Since previous studies have almost entirely overlooked hotel employees' perspectives on the pandemic, this study determines how heterogeneously Slovenian hotel employees perceived the disease and their own work during and after the health crisis. The Two-Step and K-Means clustering methods were used to identify clusters of respondents. The One-way ANOVA with post hoc Tukey's HSD test was employed to verify the significant differences among groups/items. The sample included 301 completed questionnaires. A three-cluster solution with statistically significant differences was identified. Cluster 3, the largest, is particularly interesting, as its members are the most pessimistic of all. In contrast, Cluster 1, which is much smaller, included the most optimistic members (plain optimists). Cluster 2 is also interesting, as its members tend to be more extroverted – expressing the highest psychological burden and pessimistic views about the future provision of hotel services. Managers should provide clear instructions, education/training, tighten control, and do everything possible to prevent oversensitivity and excessively defensive responses that could hinder operational work.

Green marketing is a popular concept in today's marketing world as it emphasizes the use of eco-friendly tactics by various marketers in their campaigns. The researcher has attempted to study the awareness of consumers towards Green marketing practices by selecting consumer electronics and home appliances sector related to two products viz., Television and Refrigerators. For this purpose, a sample size of 400 respondents is drawn by employing stratified sampling techniques in Uttar Kannada district of Karnataka has been selected. Percentage technique was used to describe the demographic profile of the study area, and the Chi square test was used to determine whether there was a significant relationship between level of awareness and living place. The study's findings revealed that in the television product category, Green price, Green place and Green promotion have significant associations, whereas in the green product category, awareness of the ROHS phrase, recyclable labels, and eco-friendly packaging that benefits the environment has no significant association which denotes that level of awareness is ineffective in rural and urban areas. Further considering refrigerator product category, Green Price and Green place are significantly associated whereas in Green product it is found, awareness of adoption of 3R’s by refrigerator brands, eco friendly ink used on product packages and Green promotion through internet, print and television media has no significant association. As a result, all companies marketing television and refrigerator brands must emphasize on environmentally features like ROHS compliance, environmentally friendly packaging involved in product, benefits of eco-friendly packages, adoption of 3R’s (Reduce, Reuse, Recycle) by companies, Eco-friendly ink used for print on packages instead of just concentrating on offers/discount and product design

Published: January 2022

Purpose: to assess the non-performance rate of primary PCI in STEMI patients and determine the factors influencing the choice of approach for the management of patients based on Kemerovo Cardiology Clinic's experience in 2012. Material and Methods: 492 patients aged 30 to 92 years, admitted to the MBHI "Kemerovo Cardiology Dispensary" (the Regional Vascular Center in 2012 with a diagnosis of ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction) were included in the single-center prospective registry study. The mean age of patients was 64.42 ± 10.86 years. Results: over 20% of STEMI patients admitted to the Kemerovo Cardiology Dispensary did not undergo emergency coronary angiography (CAG). These patients were older, predominantly female (64%), commonly with repeated MI (44%) and with the presence of renal and myocardial dysfunction. The group of patients, who were not selected for CAG, had significant patient delay between onset of symptoms and hospital admission (9 hours from onset of symptoms to hospital admission in the group of patients who were selected to emergency CAG and 30 hours - in patients who were not selected for CAG). Conclusion: according to the results of the study, we determined a group of patients (up to 20%), who did not receive high-tech medical services because of time delay and had less favorable outcomes after STEMI. Therefore, the development of algorithms is particularly important as they can reduce the time delay in the pre-hospital period, as well as active patient selection for coronary angiography during the in-hospital period.
Perspectives on UK Care Quality Commission’s Inspections of Primary Care Practices
Authors: Sidhu Kamal , Tumurugoti Kalindi , Bhatti Naureen , Hussein Abrar , Chakravorty Indranil
Published: January 2022

Background
In the middle of a pandemic, when the health and social care services were experiencing their worst challenges and staff were facing burnout, the feedback from primary care professionals raised concerns on the UK Care Quality Commission’s inspection regime and specially on its effectiveness, impact on services and particularly relating to its equality, diversity and inclusion aspects. 
Methods
An online anonymised survey was carried out in July 2021 and received 130 responses, the majority from the GP partners but also locum and sessional colleagues as well as other members of the
general practice team.
Results
About 80% of respondents reported having a good rating or an outstanding rating. But fewer than 20% of the participants felt that their experience of the CQC inspections was positive. More than 85% of respondents feel that the inspections did not add value to the clinical care or prevent harm. 80% felt that the inspections were not fair, transparent, objective, or replicable and found these to be traumatic rather than being a positive or constructive experience. More than 50% felt that Practices led by Black and AsianGPs small practices and those inner city, and rural practices in areas of deprivation receive disproportionately poorer outcomes. Three in four respondents felt that the inspections were intense and took staff away from direct clinical care. Almost 86% of respondents felt that the inspectors demonstrated insights into the systemic challenges faced by primary care. About half of the respondents did not feel supported by the LMCs and/or their CCG. 
Discussion & Conclusion
The findings demonstrated that the inspections were not considered to be effective or constructive and took the general practice team away from patient care. Of particular concern was that perception that the system was unfair and discriminatory for Black and Asian GPs small practices and those in inner city or rural locations with multiple deprivation. The authors urge the CQC to ensure that the profession is supported and that any inspection process is fair, non-discriminatory and improves patient care.
The Transformative Journey of HD 93521
Authors: Gies Douglas R. , Shepard Katherine , Wysocki Peter , Klement Robert
Published: January 2022

HD 93521 is a massive, rapidly rotating star that is located about 1 kpc above the Galactic disk, and the evolutionary age for its estimated mass is much less than the time of flight if it was ejected from the disk. Here we present a reassessment of both the evolutionary and kinematical timescales for HD 93521. We calculate a time of flight of 39 ± 3 Myr based upon the distance and proper motions from Gaia EDR3 and a summary of radial velocity measurements. We then determine the stellar luminosity using a rotational model combined with the observed spectral energy distribution and distance. A comparison with evolutionary tracks for rotating stars from Brott et al. yields an evolutionary age of about 5 ± 2 Myr. We propose that the solution to the timescale discrepancy is that HD 93521 is a stellar merger product. It was probably ejected from the Galactic disk as a close binary system of lower-mass stars that eventually merged to create the rapidly rotating and single massive star we observe today.
Autodifferentiable Spectrum Model for High-dispersion Characterization of Exoplanets and Brown Dwarfs

Published: January 2022

We present an autodifferentiable spectral modeling of exoplanets and brown dwarfs. This model enables a fully Bayesian inference of the high-dispersion data to fit the ab initio line-by-line spectral computation to the observed spectrum by combining it with the Hamiltonian Monte Carlo in recent probabilistic programming languages. An open-source code, ExoJAX (https://github.com/HajimeKawahara/exojax), developed in this study, was written in Python using the GPU/TPU compatible package for automatic differentiation and accelerated linear algebra, JAX. We validated the model by comparing it with existing opacity calculators and a radiative transfer code and found reasonable agreements for the output. As a demonstration, we analyzed the high-dispersion spectrum of a nearby brown dwarf, Luhman 16 A, and found that a model including water, carbon monoxide, and H2/He collision-induced absorption was well fitted to the observed spectrum (R = 105 and 2.28–2.30 μm). As a result, we found that

The Asteroid 162173 Ryugu: a Cometary Origin
Authors: Miura Hitoshi , Nakamura Eizo , Kunihiro Tak
Published: January 2022

The Japanese Hayabusa2 mission has revealed in detail the physical characteristics of the C-type asteroid 162173 Ryugu, in particular, its spinning top-shaped rubble-pile structure and potentially high organic content. A widely accepted formation scenario for Ryugu is catastrophic collision between larger asteroids and the subsequent slow gravitational accumulation of collisional debris. An alternative scenario is that Ryugu is an extinct comet that lost its icy components. Here, we numerically simulated the sublimation of water ice from a porous cometary nucleus until the refractory components, such as silicate rocks and organic matter, were left behind as evaporative residues. Such a process represents the transformation from a comet to an asteroid. The spin-up related to the shrinking nucleus, associated with water ice sublimation, was also calculated. The result of the calculation indicates that the cometary origin scenario can account for all the features of Ryugu discussed above. We conclude that organic-rich spinning top-shaped rubble-pile asteroids, such as Ryugu, are comet–asteroid transition objects or extinct comets.

Published: January 2022

We present a case of a 58-year-old woman who had a painful right thigh mass for a few months. A transthoracic echocardiogram revealed no evidence of an intracardiac mass. She had a whole-body positron emission tomography/computed tomography scan two months later that revealed masses in her right lower extremity and a mass in her right ventricle that had not been initially reported. She had been initially diagnosed with an undifferentiated pleomorphic sarcoma, but this diagnosis was changed to a malignant peripheral nerve sheath tumor with repeat pathology. She was subsequently hospitalized. An echocardiogram showed a mass covering 80% of her right ventricle (RV). Serial cardiac magnetic resonance imaging revealed a 9.4 x 5.6 cm RV mass with vascular and avascular portions and inflow and outflow tract obstruction. Computed tomography showed no other metastases. Due to a delay in diagnosis and a decline in left ventricular ejection fraction, the patient could not undergo palliative chemotherapy or radiotherapy.

Abstract— The purpose of this study was to determine students’ perceptions towards the use of virtual workspaces for enhancing collaborative work in higher education. The participants were 122 (72 graduate and 50 postgraduate) Teaching English as a foreign language (TEFL) students who were enrolled in different courses at a private university in Ecuador. The students’ proficiency levels varied from B1 to C1 according to the Common European Framework of Reference for Languages (CEFR). A mixed-method approach was used comprising qualitative and quantitative methods; thus, a diagnostic questionnaire, a perceptions ques-tionnaire, a semi-structured interview, and observation checklists were adminis-tered as instruments. This research involved an online instructional process in which teachers implemented virtual workspaces using Jamboard as a tool to de-sign collaborative activities. The results evidenced that the use of virtual work-spaces helped students develop their collaborative skills and promoted their open-mindedness. Also, virtual workspaces allow teachers to build positive e-learning environments in which students can discuss topics from different perspectives and show respect for each other’s ideas.

Authors: Mu Dandan , Guo Wei
Published: January 2022

The rapid development of e-learning also highlights the phenomenon of students' learning burnout. Learning burnout will reduce students' sense of learning efficacy and academic achievement, and have a negative impact on their physical and mental health. As an auxiliary teaching method in recent years, game evaluation can effectively stimulate learning motivation, alleviate students' learning anxiety, and play an important role in alleviating students' network learning burnout. This study constructs a theoretical model of the impact of e-learning burnout on students' academic performance. In addition, the mediating effect of game assessment on students' e-learning burnout and academic achievement was measured. The results show that the questionnaire developed by Cronbach α The coefficient is 0.828, indicating that the scale has high reliability. The kmo value is 0.781, which means that the research data information is suitable for extracting information. Game evaluation has a significant mediating effect on Students' emotional exhaustion and low sense of achievement. The results of this study have positive reference value for exploring the influencing factors of e-learning burnout, deeply analyzing the causes of e-learning burnout, implementing the game of E-teaching, alleviating e-learning burnout and improving learning achievement.

Authors: Liu Jianli , Wang Yuan
Published: January 2022

Taking economic management majors as an example, this paper probes deep into the teaching quality evaluation of colleges. Questionnaire survey was combined with interviews to survey the teachers and students of economic management majors in 10 colleges of a Chinese province. The current state and influencing factors of teaching quality evaluation were analyzed based on the survey data. The problems and defects were summarized for the teaching quality evaluation of economic management majors. On this basis, an evaluation index system was established for college teaching quality, drawing on both static and dynamic evaluations. The weight of each index was determined through expert scoring. Then, an empirical study was carried out on the teaching quality evaluation of the economic management major in a Chinese college. The results show that the proposed static-dynamic evaluation index system is highly operable in college teaching quality evaluation, and capable of revealing problems in teaching, and clarifying directions for improving teaching quality. The research enriches the theoretical and practical evidence of college teaching quality evaluation, and promotes the teaching quality of economic management majors in colleges from both theoretical and practical angles.

Movement Intellectuals in Popular Music
Authors: Razzante Robert John
Published: January 2022

Institutions of higher education continue to face the pressing values of neoliberalism. As such, colleges and universities seek to produce human capital. Critical media literacy offers one means of education to challenge neoliberal assumptions. However, current research lacks a conceptual understanding of how musical artists can serve as critical pedagogues through their music. The current chapter seeks to understand the role of movement intellectuals in popular music among educators. More specifically, this chapter proposes the following definition of a movement intellectual in popular music: an artist who observes, collects and disseminates warranted counter-narratives through the medium of their music. Ultimately, through exploring germinal and contemporary literature, this chapter attempts to offer a language for talking about critical music literacy as a means to challenge nihilism within the environment of a neoliberal higher education.

The study documents the creative composition project for non-music education major students in Japan to investigate the process of learning from each other. The participants (N=49), non-music major university students, employed Higuchi's idea marathon (IM) to maximize creativity by writing down and recording innovative ideas daily. They spent six months composing music regularly. Some of the challenges that students felt were peer learning to learn together as the composition could be solitary work, and there were many students who possessed different musical background as well as preference in musical style. In this study, the teacher-researcher encouraged each student to care, and group of students to help and support each other and share the work of the students regularly in class. At the end, students reflected on the process of peer learning and peer-assessed creativity in each composition, and students performed the selected song in small groups as units.

Innovation is taking place rapidly, which is changing the demand level. Diversifying the supply chain with changing demand patterns is another challenge to meet. Industrial Revolution (IR) 4.0 is the new way to effectively manage the supply chain process with the updated conventional business model. The technology enhances the traditional business model and improves distance relations among companies and customers through well managed distribution channels, creates high-level customer satisfaction, and provides timely information in each stage of the supply chain process. Innovative technology allows companies to make more profit by saving time and making an additional product to meet specific demands cost-effectively. It is also reducing human efforts, which will be taking place by robotics soon. The industrial revolution is the new beginning of an environment where the supply chain will be managed by intelligent technology, improving the overall process of value chains.

Authors: Kars-Unluoglu Selen , Çangarlı Burcu Güneri , Gaggiotti Hugo
Published: January 2022

This chapter shows how gender asymmetry is produced through narrative practices. By analyzing the work-life narratives of 14 men and 14 women working in a variety of occupations ranging from personal care to finance, from crafts to health, from creative and performing arts to sales and marketing, this chapter demonstrates the ways in which the narrators positioned themselves within the world of work, and the work within their personal lifeworld. The analysis brings about an order of gender in how work is approached, made sense of, experienced, and narrated. Recognizing these dynamics helps organizations and their members to be more aware that gender is not a natural attribute of people but something we create and recreate in our everyday work narratives, which in turn shapes both the meaning we attribute to work and the meaning we get out of it.

Authors: Kaya Lütfiye Göktaş , Uzun Zübeyde
Published: January 2022

Migration, as a result of wars, economic crises, natural disasters, and epidemics, has been the leading factor for cultural encounters in the historical process. Artists, who migrated sometimes as prisoners of war and sometimes to find more suitable markets, caused the introduction of new formations by transferring their styles during migration. In this study, the authors discussed the Baba Nakkaş style in Ottoman tile art and aimed to establish a link between Timurid Style and Baba Nakkaş Style. It examined how Baba Nakkaş interpreted his knowledge, which he brought with him from the Khorasan region to Istanbul via migration, under the Ottoman identity. The reflections of this new and now “Ottoman” style on other fields such as the art of bookbinding, illumination, calligraphy, and wall painting are also examined. The other part of the study demonstrates how this style from the 15-16th century is approached by today's artists. The study deals with both the Iran-Anatolia encounter and the 15-16th century Baba Nakkaş Style and the 21st-century repetition of the style.
