Pirates of the Cyber Seas: Are State-Sponsored Hackers Modern-Day Privateers?
Authors: Dwan Josephine Helen , Paige Tamsin Phillipa , McLaughlin Rob
Published: March 2022

Understanding the descriptors attached to cyber operations and cyber actors is crucial to communicating the nature of these entities and the influence they wield in cyberspace. Given the ever-increasing threat that corporations, governments, and the everyday consumer face from these entities, it is paramount that respondents evaluate and apply the most appropriate descriptors when communicating about such incidents. In this paper, we discuss whether a ‘privateer’ analogy has relevance in this space given the current state of cyber-actor behaviour and the increase in the number of governments relying on external experts to design, construct, and execute cyber-disruption operations.
In determining the appropriateness of the ‘privateer’ analogy, we explore the following questions:

What types of labels are available for this private actor-perpetrated, but state-purposed cyber-operational conduct?
Based on a brief history of privateering, how and why might privateering be an appropriate analogy?
Given the strict legal paradigmatic constraints surrounding the availability of the concept and the availability of modern Law of Armed Combat (LoAC) concepts to cover the practice, how and why is privateering not an appropriate analogy?

Ultimately, we conclude that the applicability of the ‘privateering’ analogy in the context of cyber operations is dubious. It appears that international law has developed beyond the need (and desire) for privateers and privateering operations. In this discussion, we consider legal and regulatory alternatives for responding to cyber behaviour that may still resemble privateering under effective (and much more current) international law.

Authors: Siddique Muhammad , Quddus Muhammad Abdul , Iqbal Asim
Published: March 2022

This research study employs a gravity model to explore Pakistan's trade potential from 2000 to 2020. China, United Arab Emirates (UAE), Saudi Arabia (KSA), Kuwait, United States (USA), Malaysia, Japan, India, Singapore, Afghanistan, Iran, Spain, Germany, United Kingdom (UK) and Belgium are among our significant trading partners. The study uses both static and dynamic econometric techniques to capture the trade potential of Pakistan. The findings from both methodologies are comparable, indicating that economic size and distance have a significant effect on bilateral trade. Furthermore, throughout the research period, political globalization is determined to be considerable and has an important influence on the economic masses. These factors support the theoretical model(s) that Pakistan and Pakistan’s trading partners with economic integration, political globalization, and distance all depict a significant impact on trade relations.

Flavonoids are the pigments present in plants which mostly found in terrestrial plants. Flavonoids are indeed a naturally present group of polyphenolic compounds present in plants. They were driven by the term "flavus," which means "yellow." It is a 15-carbon skeleton compound. They have fused aromatic ring and benzopyran heterocyclic ring having oxygen atom in it along with phenyl substituent. They are synthesized from Phenylalanine. In cereals and Herbs, they are mainly found. Flavonoids are compounds that are biologically active. They provide color and protection from ultraviolet rays. They have many classes based upon oxidative status, number, and types of substituents present. Flavonoids exist naturally in the form of polymers, most commonly in dimers form. They occur primarily in β-glycosides form except for Catechins. They can help in the inhibition of enzymes and stimulate some hormones along with some neurotransmitters. They also show the properties of scavenging free radicals. They can inhibit or kill many bacterial strains, viral enzymes, and pathogenic protozoans. There are various techniques and methods for the synthesis of natural products artificially. In the present study, we have attempted to cover different synthetic methods for flavonoid synthesis to find its best way to synthesize.

Authors: Mukimova S. R.
Published: March 2022

The article discusses traditions of constructing hydraulic structures on difficult terrain since ancient times. Features of the landscape and socioeconomic conditions on the territory of Tajikistan have led to the development of engineering structures here over the centuries from the simplest local building materials – stone, tree, clay. Despite the primitiveness of the building culture, the masters of the past could arrange large irrigation structures that allow transporting water over difficult terrain, arrange dams, distribution irrigation units and much more. Much of the experience of the past is still relevant today, especially in rural areas. Therefore, hydraulic engineering deserves close attention of modern researchers.
Features of the exposition of culture and life of Armenians in some Russian museums and its influence on the activation of national identity
Authors: Gevorgyan L. P.
Published: March 2022

One of the most important categories of classification is the type of museum, based on the relationship of the museum with a specific science. Ethnographic expositions are directly related to ethnographic science: the concepts of development, replenishment of collections, creation of expositions and exhibitions are aimed at preserving, studying, recreating, presenting the culture and life of a long or recent past.

National identity is formed from birth, from childhood. It can be assumed, that this is a stable and constant concept throughout a person's life. However, changing the country of residence for one reason or another sometimes leads to a change in perceptions, a revision of the system of values, interpersonal relations, and a mixing of cultures, which in turn can contribute to the creation of new options for national identity.

In the process of preserving the national identity of Armenians, museums organized in those countries where there is a stable Armenian diaspora occupy a special place.

According to the profile, none of the museums operating on the territory of non-Armenian states is ethnographic. However, an impressive part of their collections and expositions consists of objects characterizing the culture and life of the population of those areas of Armenia from which representatives of this diaspora or their ancestors emigrated.

The article considers the corresponding collections and expositions of the Museum of Russian-Armenian Friendship in Rostov-on-Don, the Armenian Museum of Moscow and the Culture of Nations, the Museum of the Peoples of the East in Moscow and the Russian Ethnographic Museum in St. Petersburg.

Impact of bridging oxygens formation on optical properties of Fe3+ doped Li2O–Al2O3–SiO2–TiO2 glasses
Authors: Faeghinia Aida
Published: March 2022

In this study, the structural chemistry of Fe3+ doped Li2O–Al2O3–SiO2–TiO2 (LAST) glasses has been analyzed utilizing UV-Vis spectroscopy. Optical parameters like absorption and extinction coefficients, indirect and direct optical band gaps, Urbach energy as well as Fermi energy level of samples were estimated via their absorption spectra. Then, it was tried to make a relationship between the variation of mentioned parameters and structural chemistry of different doped samples. Results of the investigation illustrated that even a little change in the microstructure of glassy samples has an effect on optical parameters and accordingly it could be sensible. Furthermore, it was revealed that Fe3+ ions have the role of network forming in the structure of glass by increasing the formation of bridging oxygens (BOs) in the matrix.

‘Arrest and movement’ by Henriette Antonia Groenewegen-Frankfort and ‘Organicità e astrazione’ by Ranuccio Bianchi Bandinelli remain two essays from the 1950s that are still fundamental for investigating the transformation of the works of art because they outline the passage from mythopoeic thought to western logos, or to realism and abstraction as expressions of creativity in the Modern Age. This distinction and passage reveal all the complexity of the relationship between the East, realm of the ‘symbolic’ and the West of ‘rationality’ conceived by Hegelian aesthetics. However the cognitive sciences today also offer the opportunity to analyze the formation of a figurative context by integrating the two approaches. In this contribution the two approaches are the perspectives from which to investigate a classic theme of Archeology andthe Art History of the ancient Near East: the morphogenesis of Mesopotamian statues of the 3rd millennium BC

The copper head of a sovereign found by the archaeologists of the British Museum during the excavation of the Temple of Ishtar on the citadel of Quyunjik at Nineveh in 1931, and now kept in the Iraq Museum at Baghdad (I.M. 11331), was immediately recognized as a masterpiece of Akkadian art. Countless studies have described its stylistic and iconographic characteristics. This article, through a complete analysis of the context of discovery, of iconographic and stylistic comparisons and also of the technological aspects of the work, proposes its attribution to the Akkadian royal workshops during thereign of the second successor and son of Sargon, Manishtusu, and identifies with the same sovereign, founder of the Akkadian dynasty and initiator of the visual propaganda typical of this kingdom, the represented personage

Archaeological evidence and literary sources show us images of Hittite gods and kings. The topic of submissive enemies is known from literature but it is not depicted in any representation. A passage from the ŠAR TAMḪARI from Ḫattuša probably describes an imagined scene depicted on the city-gate of Purušḫanda in which Sargonis represented as the victorious king, and the king and the inhabitants of the cityas subjugated enemiesas well

There are not many sovereigns who have enjoyed a cult that has lasted for more than two millennia. Among these stands Amenemhat III, protagonist of a real divine career, which began when he was still alive, mortal in his person, immortal in his royalty. From sovereignto primordial god, to tutelary deity of the Fayyum, up to “supreme intellect”, Amenemhat III demonstrates, like no other, how the memory of the pharaonic past, regenerating itself through the filter of Hellenism, can be perpetuated up tothe early Christian age. This short article aims to take stock of this historical-religious phenomenon, in its complete diachrony and considering what its reference context, the Fayyum, can still reveal
SOME CONSIDERATIONS ON THE NAMES OF THE STATUES OF GUDEA

Published: March 2022

The paper aims at presenting the topics related to the naming of the Gudea Statues. Beyond the religious meaning of the names given in the texts, in fact, the proposal is put forward that they can be used as a sort of guide fossil in order to find out a possible chronological grid for the making of the statues themselves and implicitly of the reign of Gudea

O surto de um novo coronavírus marcou o século 21 e vem trazendo consequências devastadoras no mundo todo. A pandemia de COVID-19, até a data do presente artigo já ceifou mais de 3,7 milhões de vidas, infectando mais de 174 milhões de pessoas no planeta. Frente a este cenário, faz-se necessário um melhor aproveitamento e alocação de recursos. A teoria das filas, sendo uma importante ferramenta da Pesquisa Operacional (PO) que visa solucionar problemas de congestionamento de filas pode auxiliar no dimensionamento de sistemas e na tomada de decisão. Este artigo analisou o dimensionamento de uma UTI adulta dedicada a pacientes com COVID-19 no munícipio de Caxias do Sul, no Rio Grande do Sul. Para isso, os dados foram coletados no endereço eletrônico do Governo do Estado do Rio Grande do Sul e referem-se ao período de 01/04/2021 à 28/05/2021. Foi verificado que neste período a taxa de ocupação do sistema é próxima de 100%, com 97,27% de ocupação, o sistema está próximo de saturar.  Dessa forma analisou-se um cenário aumentando o número de leitos de 48 para 60, com isso a taxa de ocupação seria de 77,82%, o que tornaria o sistema mais ágil.

Objective: To compare Extracorporeal Sliding knot (ECK) and clip ligation to ligation of the cystic duct in laparoscopic cholecystectomy. Patients and Methods: This study was conducted as prospective randomized study in Jeddah National Hospital in Jeddah Saudi Arabia, in surgical department carried out from June 2018 to June 2019. In the study 100 patients were selected and divided into two groups, in which we compared outcomes of patients in whom Cystic Duct Occlusion was done by clips (Group I n=60) and other group Ligatures endoloop knotting (Group II n=40). During laparoscopic cholecystectomy (LC), cystic duct occlusion can be done with titanium clips or ligature permanently in order to prevent leakage of bile into the peritoneal cavity. Results: Average age of the patients of clipping group was 43.68 years and the average age of the patients of knot group was 42.64 years, with male to female ration as 1:4.5. 1:2.3 of clipping and knot group respectively. Regarding operating time from initial incision to closure of wound is 61 to 65 minutes in clip group and 69 to 70 minutes in knot group. Longer operating times in knot group is due to learning curve effect for most surgeons as is evident from the fact that first twenty surgeries took longer time as compared to subsequent surgeries. The port site infection was in 03 cases of the clip group 01 in the knot group, drain was kept in 12 cases in knot group and 06 in clip group, bile leak requiring ERCP 02 cases in clip group and 01 in knot group, retained CBD Stones 01 was in clip group, obstructive Jaundice was seen in one cases of clip group, while no mortality was seen in both groups. Although the hospital stay after surgery in clip group was 1-2 days and in knot group also 1-2 days and in ERCP patients’ Hospital stay was 2 to 3 days. Conclusion: Cystic duct occlusion with knots/ligatures is a safe, cost effective, less post operative pain alternative to clips as various studies showed clips complications. It also showed less post-operative pain, less bile leak and port site wound infection. Safety of using knots/ligatures is even better than clips as is evident from this study comparing these two methods of cystic duct occlusion. Key words: cholecystectomy, surgical clips, surgical knots, surgical ligature, cystic duct occlusion, bile leakage

Objective: To determine the frequency of causative microorganisms and drug sensitivity in odontogenic infection. Methodology: This cross-sectional study was done at the department of Oral and maxillofacial surgery of Liaquat University Hospital Hyderabad, during six months from August 2018 to January 2019). All subjects of 12 to 50 years of age, either gender with odontogenic infections were included. Pus was collected by transport media/swab stick and sent to the Hospital diagnostic laboratory for culture and antibiotic susceptibility, while the antibiotic sensitivity test for the isolates was performed, whereas the data was collected on pre-designed proforma and analyzed by SPSS version 26. Results: A total of 200 patients with odontogenic infection of either gender were studied. Mean age of these cases was 51.94±8.93 years and males were in majority 63.5%. The causative microorganism includes Staphylococcus species 24.5%, Streptococcus 22.0%, Pseudomonas aeruginosa 16.0%, eubacterium 13.5%, Porphyromonas 10.5%, Prevotella 6.5%, and Fusobacterium 7.0%, while drug sensitivity includes Ampicillin 33.5%, amikacin 24.5%, Gentamicin 17.0%, Cefotaxime 14.5% and ceftazidime 10.5%. Frequency of causative microorganisms was statistically significant according to gender (p <0.05), while insignificant according to age (P->0.05). Conclusion: As per study conclusion the staphylococcus species, streptococcus, Pseudomonas aeruginosa, eubacterium, Porphyromonas Prevotella and fusobacterium were observed to be the causative organisms in odontogenic infection. Ampicillin was the highly sensitive antibiotic drug followed by amikacin, gentamicin, cefotaxime and ceftazidime. Odontogenic infection cultures are necessary to isolate all pathogens and for successful management. Key words: Odontogenic infections, Microorganism, antibiotic sensitivity
