Published: October 2021

Comprehensive protection of minors is one of the priority areas of criminal law policy. The pre-trial investigation, and their interrogation as its part, occupies a special place in the process of protection of minors and restoration of their violated rights. The interrogation of minors is a special procedure with clearly defined requirements. The aim of the study was to identify gaps in the regulation of interrogation of minors and suggest ways to address them. The methods used: system approach; descriptive statistics; comparison and juxtaposition; descriptive analysis; pragmatic approach; prognostication. The tactics of interrogation of a minor victim of a crime are legally defined in the national criminal procedural legislation of the vast majority of countries. The principles, rules, main measures, and purpose of interrogation of this category of victims in the pre-trial investigation are enshrined in the provisions of international regulations. These rules are based on the principle of child-friendly justice. But the practical conduct of the interrogation has several gaps, so it is necessary to clarify the rules of international and national regulations on certain provisions.
The Comparison of Examples of Deviation from Jurisdiction in the Criminal Procedures of Iran and France
Authors: Ghorbanian Abbas Ali , Sharafabadi Ali Mazidi , Mansouri Seyed Mehdi
Published: October 2021

In criminal proceedings, in special circumstances, exceptions have been provided for to deviate from the competences of the judicial authorities, and the present study aims to compare these cases in Iranian and French criminal procedure. As for intrinsic jurisdiction, the findings indicate that in Iranian criminal procedure deviation from intrinsic jurisdiction is permitted in cases such as issuing a collective verdict and observing the rules of multiple crimes. In French criminal procedure, deviation from the inherent jurisdiction is possible in limited cases and only within the framework of a referral. Moreover, as regards the rule of diversion from local jurisdiction, the fact that, without exception, that rule cannot lead to favourable judicial review of criminal cases is common to both criminal proceedings. Indeed, the need to establish exceptions and violations of this rule in order to increase the efficiency of the judiciary is inevitable. Moreover, in both Iranian and French criminal proceedings, the basis for determining personal jurisdiction is the perpetrator, so that the criminal procedure has placed the investigation of certain persons under the jurisdiction of a specific authority.
Simultaneous Or Sequential Multi-Element Graphite Furnace Atomic Absorption Spectrometry Techniques: Advances Within The Last 20 Years
Authors: Thomaidis Nikolaos S.
Published: October 2021

Electrothermal or graphite furnace atomic absorption spectrometry (ETAAS or GFAAS) is one of the most widely used techniques for determining elements in different matrices (e.g., foodstuffs, pharmaceuticals, biological specimens, nanomaterials, polymers, fuels and environmental media). Numerous elements can be simply and quickly determined with high precision and accuracy, low detection limits, and at moderate cost. The technique is also suitable for direct solid and slurry sample analysis. A crucial feature of this technique is that it can perform simultaneous or sequential multi-element analysis. Over the years, many instruments have come on the market for multi-elemental analysis using mostly line source (LS) GFAAS and high-resolution continuum source (HR-CS) GFAAS. This review covers publications from 2000 to 2020related to the simultaneous or sequential multi-elemental analysis by LS-GFAAS and HR-CS-GFAAS. Mainly the applications, the limits of detection, the use of internal standardization and other aspects regarding the matrix, pyrolysis and atomization temperatures and modifiers are discussed. Finally, a critical comparison is made between the LS-GFAAS and HR-CS-GFAAS techniques.

Authors: Jaramillo Hanna Lorena , Pazmiño Enríquez José Ernesto
Published: October 2021

Las Instituciones Bancarias Privadas en el Ecuador han sido un pilar fundamental para la evolución económica y financiera del país, siendo su misión realizar una eficaz asignación de los recursos captados, así como también lograr estabilidad monetaria y financiera del sector. Los bancos cumplen una función específica en la economía de libre mercado, la cual consiste en actuar como intermediarios financieros entre ofertantes y demandantes de fondos. Por un lado, tienen la capacidad de estimular y recibir el ahorro de la ciudadanía, y por otro, distribuirlo entre los agentes económicos que lo necesitan para sus actividades de consumo, producción e inversión, considerando una tasa de interés. Debido a la relevante participación de los bancos en el Ecuador y que su principal actividad es otorgar créditos, es imperante que precautelen sus recursos monetarios y minimicen los riesgos de pérdidas al brindar financiamiento a sus clientes, por ello es imprescindible la administración adecuada de la cartera de crédito, y gestionar la recuperación efectiva de las operaciones vencidas para mantener indicadores de morosidad, cobertura, liquidez y solvencia adecuados. El presente artículo tiene por objetivo analizar la importancia de la administración de la cobranza para mejorar los indicadores de cartera en las instituciones bancarias privadas del Ecuador, para ello se aplicó como metodología de la investigación un enfoque cualitativo-inductivo, apegado al análisis de la información recolectada en el entorno problemático. Cabe señalar que entre los principales resultados obtenidos se encuentran que los indicadores de morosidad de cartera se incrementaron producto de una administración de cobranzas inadecuada para la situación económica actual, así también se evidencia que, el crecimiento de la cartera vencida afecta directamente a la rentabilidad y utilidades del negocio bancario por el incremento del gasto de provisión.

This article attempts to cut into "Movie review", "Buddhist meditation" to interpret the "Mindfulness Attitudes" in the "MBSR", and analyze the film "Peaceful Warrior" (2006) as a case study.

 
Evaluation of supply chain performance: A methodology based on exchange information
Authors: Phuoc Van Nguyen  , Nguyen Trong Hoang
Published: October 2021

Cloud producing (CP) is seen as a modern way of localising development, different from previous multinational and indigenous production manifestations. This analysis produces three major contributions. First the study brings together two literary bodies, namely CP configuration and the provision of infrastructure to examine the sense of CP. Secondly, these theoretical lenses are applied in research to describe the distinctive character of CP in seven dimensions of study. Third, new CP design rules are defined by drawing on both literature and the CP case evidence compared to the more developed models for localized development. The literature on developed localized production models and CP were used to analyze the modernizing of the supply network (MSN) and the infrastructural projections. The CP model was then identified and further investigated in a multiple case study. For the collection of five instances, a maximum variation sampling technique was used.

Published: October 2021

Inoculation of rhizobacteria in seeds and plants has been documented as a stimulant and promoter of germination and growth of agricultural crops, but there is little information on native forest species. Therefore, the present study aims to evaluate the potential of Azospirillum brasilense inoculation in the germination of seeds and initial growth of seedlings of native forest species. The following experiments were carried out: (I) germination of seeds in germination chamber, and (II) initial growth of seedlings in nursery, both with four forest species (Cassia leptophylla, Lafoensia pacari, Mimosa flocculosa and Schinus terebinthifolius). For the four species, in both experiments, two treatments were used: inoculation of seeds with concentrated solution of A. brasilense and no inoculation of seeds (control). Physiological aspects of seed germination and seedling vigor were evaluated in the first experiment (germination speed, and length and dry weight of seedlings), and seedling growth was evaluated in the second experiment (height, collar diameter and dry weight of seedlings). Inoculation of A. brasilense in seeds of C. leptophylla, L. pacari, M. flocculosa and S. terebinthifolius did not promote beneficial or promising results for seed germination and initial growth of seedlings, so its use to produce seedlings of these species is not recommended.

Authors: Ferreira Heitor Renan , Batista Antonio Carlos , Tetto Alexandre França
Published: October 2021

Vegetation fires, when not controlled, cause economic disruption, temporary loss of vegetation, and damage to soil, fauna and health. To improve the process of fire prevention and firefighting, it is necessary to evaluate the performance of the involved agents. The objective of this study was to evaluate the firefighting efficiency of vegetation fires in the municipality of Curitiba, Paraná, from 2011 to 2015, using records from the Fire Department of the Military Police of Paraná. Once the consistency of the fire records was verified, they were classified and information was gathered regarding the extent of burnt area, time of first attack, combat time, main fire-extinguishing methods used, and amount of water used. The results indicate that 88% of the records registered a burnt area inferior or equal to four hectares. In addition, the mean burnt area was of 2,399.21 m², the mean attack time was of 14.1 minutes, and the mean combat time was of 29.9 minutes, all lower than the ones presented by studies from different locations. As for the fire-extinguishing methods, it was verified that smothering equipment and water were used in 66.4 and 60.6% of the records, respectively. The mean amount of water used was of 1,186.56 liters per fire, indicating a minimum volume necessary for water storage containers for firefighting in the study area. Based on the results, we concluded that the firefighting of vegetation fires in Curitiba is efficient.

Published: October 2021

Forest species breeding programs require a long period-of-time for plants to reach the proper age to enable selecting superior genotypes, which is a critical factor in selection processes. Thus, the aims of the current study are to estimate genetic parameters in juvenile and adult plants (6, 10 and 20 years) in order to investigate genetic correlations between variables at different ages and at certain ages; as well as to determine whether it is possible performing efficient early selection in juvenile plants. The test was implemented in 1997; it comprised 120 progenies and followed a randomized block design, with five repetitions - linear plots comprised 5 plants at 2.5 m x 2.5 m spacing. DBH (cm), H (m) and VOL (m³) of all tested subjects were measured at the age of 6, 10 and 20 years. Variance components, genetic parameters, as well as genetic correlations between variables and between ages were estimated in Selegen REML/BLUP® software. Genetic parameter estimates have shown superiority at 10 years, in comparison to that estimated at 6 and 20 years. Variable ‘DBH’ has shown high genetic correlation to height (H) and volume (VOL), whereas DBH x VOL have shown high genetic correlation (0.98) in 10-year-old plants. With respect to genetic correlation between ages, 10-year-old plants have shown moderate correlation to 6- and 20-year-old plants. Early selection is indicated for 10-year-old plants, in 20-year cycles, since plants at this age have shown higher selection efficiency to predict gains in comparison to adult plants.

Authors: Dos Santos Lucas Carvalho , Lopes Eduardo Da Silva , MARTINS ALYSSON BRAUN , Rodrigues Carla Krulikowski
Published: October 2021

The levels of exposure whole-body vibration (WBV) while performing mechanized soil preparation operations are concerning due to the exposure time of operators at their work stations, adverse terrain topography, and types of wheels on the machines used. Thus, this study aimed to evaluate the exposure to WBV in bulldozers and hydraulic excavators in performing soil preparation for forest plantation in order to identify possible ergonomic problems and propose improvements in working conditions. The study was carried out in Paraná State, Brazil, in a Eucalyptus urophylla × Eucalyptus grandis stand hybrid, being registered with use of a vibration meter and triaxial accelerometer coupled to the seat of the machines, the resulting acceleration to normalized exposure (aren) and the resulting vibration dose (VDVR) for a period of 8 working hours, following the Occupational Hygiene Standard 09. The results showed aren and VDVR values of 1.0 m s-2 and 18.3 m s-1.75 in the bulldozer, while in the hydraulic excavator it was 0.7 m s-2 and 13.5 m s-1.75, respectively, with a statistically significant difference between the machines by the Wilcoxon test for independent samples (α ≤ 0.05). The WBV levels were above the action level and below the exposure limit in both machines, with the bulldozer showing values above the uncertainty level. Therefore, substituting machines specifically designed for soil preparation and improvements in work organization are measures indicated to reduce ergonomic problems.

Objective: Gastric intestinal metaplasia (GIM) is considered as a predisposing lesion for the development of gastric cancer and isrecommended to be kept under surveillance in designated intervals. We aimed to assess the natural course of GIM in a large Turkishcohort.Materials and Methods: We retrospectively reviewed findings from pathology reports of gastric biopsies conducted between 2011 to2018 to reveal patients diagnosed with solitary GIM in their index pathology report. Progression of GIM was pre-defined as; lowgradedysplasia (LGD), high-grade dysplasia (HGD), or gastric malignancy.Results: The median follow-up period of the study population was 34 (12-128) months. Out of 109 patients with GIM at the entry, 54(49.6%) patients had stable GIM, whereas 53 (48.6%) cases had no signs of GIM at their final endoscopy. Only two (1.8%) patientsprogressed to LGD, but no HGD or malignancy was detected in the follow-up.Conclusion: Although, considered as a premalignant lesion and offered surveillance globally, progression of GIM was very low in alarge Turkish cohort. Further prospective studies in larger cohorts are required to enlighten the obscure strategies in the surveillanceof gastric malignancy.

History of Body Contouring
Authors: D. Paul Malcolm , Wirth Garrett
Published: October 2021

The evolution of body contouring follows decades of procedures and technologic advances in body shaping. Beginning many decades ago with extensive surgical resections of skin and subcutaneous fat, the evolution was dramatically changed with the introduction of suction assisted lipectomy (liposuction). Further refinement in the technique of liposuction allowed more precise sculpting of the body and, most recently, has evolved to high definition liposuction. Following the introduction of liposuction in the early 1980s, energy based devices were developed to allow non or minimally invasive procedures to sculpt the body. The energy sources include laser energy, radiofrequency energy, ultrasonic energy, and plasma based energy. This evolution has provide the cosmetic surgeon with a variety of options to obtain optimal body contouring in a variety of clinical presentations. The safety and the efficacy of these procedures are the most important considerations in adopting new technology and techniques.

Published: October 2021

Deforestation is a driver of land degradation and a major environmental problem in Somalia, and has been linked to frequent incidences of drought over the years. Monitoring of changes in forest cover is therefore critical for the country’s environment. The problem of land degradation has been worsened by the large scale charcoal production that is witnessed in the country. This study aimed at estimating forest cover change between 2000 and 2019 in Somalia using Landsat-based forest cover datasets. Google Earth Engine (GEE), a cloud based computing system was used to provide a platform for this analysis. Based on the 30% threshold recommended by International Geosphere Biosphere Program for differentiating forest from non-forest trees, approximately 23% forest cover loss was found, from 87, 294 hectares in 2000 to 67, 199 hectares in 2019. Most of the country’s forest is within the southern and central parts of the country, and significant forest cover losses occurred mainly around Mogadishu and Kismayo port throughout the study period. There is therefore a need for the Federal Ministry of Environment and environment ministries in the federal member states to design mechanisms and strategies for restoration of the degraded forests and to curb deforestation.
Von der Rezitation auf die Bühne. Ein übersetzungstheoretischer Werkstattbericht zu zeitgenössischen deutschen Theaterversionen von Senecas Tragödien
Authors: Klees Christian , Kugelmeier Christoph
Published: October 2021

Seneca’s dramas brood in the shadows of the Attic tragedies, which are frequently played in theatres all over the world. To this day, it is controversial whether Seneca’s plays were intended for the stage or only for recitation. But the enormous after-effect of these texts in the literature devoted to European theatre (above all in Shakespeare) shows that they themselves are not only part of our cultural heritage, but that it is worthwhile to consider how one might propose a more contemporary staging of these works in order to afford an authentic reception for the first time – and indeed, for a broader public. Admittedly, the texts can and will only find a larger audience if Seneca’s recitation dramas are brought to the contemporary stage in a form and language appropriate to this audience. In a project undertaken by Saarbrücken Classical Philology since 2011, for the first time directly playable German translations are to be produced for this purpose. These take into account the dramaturgical peculiarities of the plays by negotiating between philological considerations and the requirements of performance itself. At the same time, philologically flawless translations of the Latin text into German emerge as the crux of the matter. The present essay will discuss this multiplex process of translation on the basis of an example already tested in a stage performance and in the light of various theories of translation
Die Performanz der translatorischen Wörtlichkeit. Am Beispiel Paul Celans
Authors: Cercel Larisa
Published: October 2021

This essay discusses translational literalism, but not – as is usually the case in translation theory – by way of the assertion that such literalism is the antithesis of the liberated creativities of expressive translation, but in terms of the proposition that translational literalism can be regarded as a special form of performance. Two main questions are addressed here: firstly, what does translational literalism do? Secondly, do the syntactic and semantic reproductions in translation achieve the same effect as in the original? In view of these questions, the purpose of this essay is to analyse a literal translation by Paul Celan of a text by Jules Supervielle, and to reveal the paradoxical nature of the principle of literalism: translational literalism, particularly when undertaken with the artistry of Celan, can be a linguistically and poetically creative act – and in that case, it is hardly to be dismissed as merely pedestrian reproduction.
A conclusion of contracts for the international sale of goods
Authors: Jovanović Marko
Published: October 2021

The international exchange of goods is done through a contract on the international sale of goods. A conclusion of a contract on the international sale of goods is based primarily on the autonomy of the will of the parties, unless that autonomy of will is limited by the compulsory regulations of the states. All sources of law cited in the paper, such as international conventions, autonomous sources of law and even customs and business ethics, can be changed by the disposition of the will, because they are of a dispositive character. The contracting parties most often agree on the application of the United Nations Convention on Contracts for the International Sale of Goods, the so-called Vienna Conventions, except in cases where there are general conditions and standard contracts. The Vienna Convention, which is a compromise of continental, Roman and Anglo-Saxon law, is most often contracted. The offer and its acceptance are necessary for the conclusion of the contract, except for standard and formal contracts. The offer is a final act, and the acceptance of the offer is a statement of the agreement with the offer. The offer must have essential elements of the contract, but it can also have irrelevant elements. By concluding a contract with the application of INCOTERMS clauses, most irrelevant elements of the contract are regulated.
Predicting Ship Maintenance and Repair Labor with Artificial Neural Networks
Authors: Fruytier Pierre-Andre M. , Dev Arun Kr

Ship maintenance and repair work cost estimation is often regarded as an “Art,” which may contribute to the financial success or distress of a shipyard. Regarded as experts by senior management, estimators are among the most valued resources, and nonetheless, human. Over time, estimators learn from mistakes, and get better with tenure at sharpening assessments. When estimators retire without having groomed an apprentice, shipyards may be at risk of losing a lot of know-how, all at once. These shipyards may well find very costly to experience, for a while, estimating skills stepping back on the learning curve. Yet, even shipyards relying on less advanced information technology may have unwittingly accumulated a lot of valuable data relevant to ship maintenance and repair works. These shipyards may overlook how easily accessible knowledge can be turned into a competitive advantage through predictive analytics. Not only can this data be literally mined, but machine learning algorithms, such as Artificial Neural Networks (ANN), can now process it for a speedy and preliminary estimate through faster and cheaper computing power. To be clear, the purpose is not to replace the human estimator but to help the expert quickly assess, when times are busy, whether to bid or not on a specific project opportunity. In the absence of The Master Estimator, an Apprentice may also look for a quick and cheap sanity check of the prepared estimate before submitting a bid. The study carried out in this article is based on all ship maintenance and repair data recorded at a single North American shipyard over the last 19 years since the current information systems were implemented. This raw data extract with all directly paid hours logged daily by workers on 1277 ship maintenance and repair projects was screened through advanced data cleansing. To enrich the cleansed data tables, additional independent variables were subsequently collected internally and externally to develop a training–testing data set. The final 657 projects represent 136 vessels regrouped in eight types, for which 28 other independent variables were all made available for training up to testing simple ANN models. The scope of this article is limited to the estimation of the direct labor required to complete ship maintenance and repair projects on a specific type of vessels for which workforce planning and tactical pricing was deemed the most relevant to keep the business afloat.
La triada en el Panteón femenino Valois (1547-1559)
Authors: Goicoechea Beltran Aitana
Published: October 2021

Catalina de Médicis, Diana de Poitiers y Margarita de Francia constituyeron  las tres piezas esenciales del poder femenino en la corte del rey Enrique II. No solo formaron parte del programa político-cultural Valois sino que lo alentaron y lo reafirmaron permitiendo el uso de sus respectivas imágenes para crear un verdadero panteón divino con el fin de consolidar las pretensiones de la dinastía. Este artículo explora la configuración de la iconografía mitológica cortesana vinculada a estas tres figuras y tiene como objetivo mostrar la génesis, el desarrollo y las personalidades que hicieron posible la construcción de este panteón iconográfico.
UTICAJ DIGITALNIH MEDIJA NA DJECU
Authors: Milošević Sanda
Published: October 2021

Djeca danas sve ranije dolaze u direktan ili indirektan kontakt sa digitalnim medijima, bez obzira da li se radi o upotrebi digitalnih medija za učenje ili za igru i zabavu. Pitanje o štetnosti rane upotrebe digitalnih medija aktuelna je tema za stručnjake iz oblasti pedijatrije, psihologije i pedagogije. Vrijedi li uopšte princip: što ranije, to bolje, otvara li nove mogućnosti na polju obrazovanja ili je štetni uticaj na zdrav razvoj djeteta veći od koristi. Vrijeme i okolnosti u kojima živimo tjeraju nas da djeci već jako rano moramo dopustiti upotrebu digitalnih medija, škola na daljinu uključivala je i učenike prvih razreda. Na roditeljima i učiteljima je odgovornost da djeci kontrolisano i uz pravilno doziranje učine pristup digitalnim medijima sigurnim i bezbjednim za njihov zdrav razvoj. U radu se ispituju roditelji i učenici nižih razreda osnovne škole o sadržaju i vremenu korišćenja digitilnih medija u svrhu učenja i igre i zabave i njihovi stavovi i mišljenja o dobrim i lošim stranama njihove upotrebe.
МОРАЛНИ ИЗАЗОВИ САВРЕМЕНИХ ПРОЦЕСА ГЛОБАЛИЗАЦИЈЕ КАО ПОТЕНЦИЈАЛНА ОКОСНИЦА ОПШТЕГ ДРУШТВЕНОГ РАЗВОЈА
Authors: Заревски Драгор
Published: October 2021

Актуелни друштвено-политички изазови који подривају економско-политичку стабилност заједница, карактеристични за савремено друштво на глобалном нивоу, есенцијално произилазе из базичне неусклађености убрзаног и успешног развитака науке и технологије током XX и почетком XXI века што непосредно условљава и базичну промену економске парадигме на глобалном плану са једне стране, насупрот споријег и неадекватно успешног духовног и моралног развитка наше цивилизације који не може да одржи корак са научним, технолошким и економским променама и њиховим утицајем на живот људи. Одржавање стабилности и поступни просперитет друштва као свој предуслов подразумевају постојање или успостављање равнотеже између научно-технолошког развоја и духовно-моралног-организациског напредка друштва. Свака друштвено политичка реалност нужно почива на конкретним моралним принципима. Есенција природе доминантних моралних принципа одређене друштвене или друштвено политичке заједнице варира у зависности од историског момента, духовне, научно-технолошке или организационе развијености одређеног друштва, историског искуства, актуелних уметничких, културних и политичих тенденција. Успешност савременог друштва зависиће од моралних вредности и норми које ће прихватити као себи иманентне. Дате вредности и норме биће обликоване, као што у својој етичкој теорији истиче велики шкотски филозоф, економиста и историчар Дејвид Хјум, као одговор на колективно искуство живота у датом привредном, интелектуалном и технолошки профилираном друштвеном окружењу.
