Serious Game Conceptual Model of Brain-Based Learning for Halus Student
Authors: Zainal Abidin Saffa Raihan , Mat Noor Siti Fadzilah , Sahari@Ashaari Noraidah
Published: November 2021

Malaysian society, including students who use technology in their daily lives, have made technology a necessity. Among the media technologies that have a place in students’ hearts are serious games, convey information, emphasizing learning and not entertainment. A serious game is capable of creating self-directed active learning. In this study, the authors analyzed the key features of serious games that encourage learning in an academic environment. However, not many software specializes in problems for slow-reading students. This study aims to establish the elements used in in-game application software and the approaches and strategies used to develop a serious game design conceptual model for such students based on the acquired elements. The elements were obtained through two methods, i.e., systematic literature review and preliminary studies. This work identifies 48 potential studies in 2009-2020, using various well-known digital libraries. The analysis of the selected documents applying the inclusion criteria resulted in 12 articles used to design serious games. This study integrates brain-based learning strategies into game and learning components. This serious game conceptual model expects to provide a meaningful learning experience for those children who are left behind to achieve their learning goals and increase their motivation to stay excited in learning.
Chemical Profiles of Terminalia catappa LINN Nut and Terminalia subspathulata KING Fruit
Authors: Yakubu Yahaya , Lee Soo Yee , Shaari Khozirah
Published: November 2021

Terminalia catappa and Terminalia subspathulata are two species of the Combretaceae family of medium to large forest trees. The fruits of T. catappa are known for the edible nuts commonly known as tropical almonds due to their similarity in taste with almonds of commerce. Therefore, the chemical profiles of the fruits of the two Terminalia species were examined to ascertain their potential value for food or health uses. Gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (GCMS) and ultrahigh-pressure liquid chromatography-electrospray ionisation tandem mass spectrometry (UHPLC-ESI-MS/MS) techniques were employed to profile the extracts to ensure good coverage of the classes of metabolites of the fruit extracts. The GCMS results revealed that T. catappa nuts were rich in palmitic acid (33.2%), linoleoyl chloride (29.1%), and oxacyclohexadecan-2-one commonly known as pentadecanolide (16.2%). In comparison, the major constituents of T. subspathulata fruits were palmitic acid (18.1%) and its methyl ester, methyl palmitate (9.3%). Furthermore, a total of 38 compounds were putatively identified in the 70% aqueous methanolic extracts of both species via UHPLC-ESI-MS/MS analysis, comprising three organic acids, sixteen hydrolysable tannins, ten phenolic acids, eight flavonoids, and a diarylheptanoid. The GCMS- and liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry- (LCMS-) LCMS-based metabolite profiles obtained in the present study have revealed the diversity of chemical constituents in the T. catappa nuts and T. subspathulata fruits, potentially valorised as functional foods nutraceutical ingredients for plant-based health products.

Published: November 2021

This study aimed to examine the anti-termite potential of four Saharan plant extracts, namely, the apple of Sodom or rubber bush, Calotropis procera; pergularia, Pergularia tomentosa; jimsonweed, Datura stramonium, and Egyptian henbane, Hyoscyamus muticus from Bechar (southwest of Algeria) on workers of the harvester termite, Anacanthotermes ochraceus (Isoptera: Hodotermitidae). A direct contact application test was conducted with five fractions from aqueous extracts of each part of plant species (leaves, stems) using hexane, dichloromethane, ethyl acetate, butanol, and exhausted fraction. A repellent test was realized with aqueous extracts (10%) of plant species leaves and stems. According to the direct contact application test, all tested plants fractions showed termiticidal activities with different degrees. Butanolic fractions presented the best effects from leaves of C. procera and P. tomentosa with median lethal time (LT50) = 231.03 and 244.96 min, respectively. In the second test, wood samples were exposed to termite attack for four weeks, and the weight loss percentage was determined. The weight loss ranged from 0.034 to 16.90% at concentrations of 10% of plant extracts. The best repellent effect was obtained from leaves of C. procera (weight loss = 0.034%) and leaves of D. stramonium (weight loss = 1.29%). It was concluded that some Saharan plants are a good source of anti-termite compounds, especially C. procera.

Authors: Mahamud Siti Nor Azizah , Tan Sheau Wei , Youn So-Youn , Lee Hyun-Jeong , Lee Ji-Youn , Kwon Young-Kuk , Ideris Aini , Omar Abdul Rahman
Published: November 2021

Frequent Newcastle disease (ND) outbreaks in poultry have been reported in Southeast Asia, including Malaysia. However, limited studies have been carried out on detecting the Newcastle disease virus (NDV) from non-poultry birds. In this study, the detections of NDV were carried out using tissues samples from suspected ND cases from commercial chickens and swab samples of non-poultry birds captured in bird sanctuaries. Five samples from commercial chickens and one sample from black swans were found positive for ND. They were classified as velogenic NDV based on the partial sequencing of the fusion (F) gene, which revealed the amino acid motif on the F cleavage site of 112RRQKRF117. In addition, phylogenetic analysis based on partial F gene showed that all NVD isolates are classified as class II genotype VII subgenotype VII.2 (VIIi) and are clustered together with NDVs isolated from chickens in 2017 in Indonesia. This finding indicates the occurrence of subgenotype VII.2 (VIIi) as the fifth panzootic of ND in Malaysia and the importance of the epidemiology of virulent NDV in various avian species.

Does labour matter in reforms? Indications from Ghana’s environmental sanitation policy
Authors: Akorsu Angela D. , Britwum Akua O. , Boampong Owusu
Published: November 2021

Recent policy debates point to public service privatisation as a solution to the problems of state indebtedness, non-performance, and inefciency of the public sector. This privatisation agenda has raised concerns about the implications for jobs and working conditions. In developing countries like Ghana, where markets are weak or exhibit signs of failure, state policy becomes a vital avenue for securing decent working conditions for workers. Using an appraisal of Ghana’s Environmental Sanitation Policy and through the lens of institutional theory, the paper argues that the extent to which employment rights are framed, even at the policy stage, signals how labour rights will be impacted within privatised employment spaces. The analysis shows that the environmental sanitation policy ignores the interests of labour. The paper, therefore, recommends the need for inputs of labour market institutions such as trade unions at the policy stage. This is because trade unions remain the most credible source of response to the unrestrained exploitative tendencies of capital at the expense of labour.

A Casa da Mulher e o fluxo da judicialização da violência de gênero em Juiz de Fora/MG
Authors: Beraldo de Oliveira Marcella , Horta e Silva Andréa Lúcia , Gomes Mariana
Published: November 2021

Marcella Beraldo de Oliveira, Andréa Lúcia Horta e Silva e Mariana Gomes descrevem o processo de judicialização da violência de gênero na cidade de Juiz de Fora, percorrendo diferentes instituições, serviços e projetos que compõem a rede de atenção à temática na localidade. Na etnografia, que acompanha e descreve os fluxos da denúncia, ganha centralidade a Casa da Mulher, instituição municipal que atua como a “porta de entrada” das mulheres em situação de violência na rede de acolhimento e nos serviços judiciários. Localizada no mesmo prédio em que funciona a delegacia especializada, a recepção da Casa da Mulher acaba operando uma espécie de filtro que classifica e encaminha, de acordo com a “gravidade”, os casos que chegam à instituição, muito embora não haja um investimento adequado na qualificação das profissionais responsáveis. Essa mesma ausência de uma formação em gênero marca a 2ª Vara Criminal, à qual são encaminhados, por determinação de um decreto, os casos referentes à Lei Maria da Penha. Mais do que isso, as autoras demonstram obstáculos no acesso à justiça – sobretudo entre mulheres de baixa renda, dentre as quais há desconfiança em relação à polícia e ao sistema de justiça – e as circunstâncias que conduzem à reprivatização da violência doméstica. Em meio a um cenário de desmonte de políticas públicas e sociais, as universidades (pública e privada) asseguram a oferta de determinados serviços, tanto aqueles expedientes sociojudiciários quanto programas relacionados às chamadas “justiças do diálogo”.
“O caminho mais curto para o homem de bem ir para a cadeia, é a violência doméstica!” – Familismo, convenções de gênero, judicialização e violência contra as mulheres
Authors: Bonetti Alinne
Published: November 2021

Alinne de Lima Bonetti trata da pesquisa realizada na cidade gaúcha de Uruguaiana. Somos conduzidos por uma descrição que, ao mesmo tempo em que caracteriza a exiguidade da rede e a precariedade de serviços públicos no campo da violência de gênero naquela localidade, revela a maneira como a temática é apropriada por setores políticos conservadores com vistas a ganhos eleitorais. Percorrendo audiências de conciliação no fórum, entrevistas com agentes públicos, audiência pública na cidade e documentos legislativos locais, o texto demonstra, etnograficamente, as costuras entre moral, moralidades, concepções de família, convenções de gênero e concepções de classe – e a maneira como elas operacionalizam os expedientes ligados à judicialização da violência de gênero. Todos esses elementos conformam e fomentam uma perspectiva familista, isto é, uma ideologia que concebe a família como valor central das políticas públicas. Ao longo de sua análise, Bonetti situa essa lógica familista observada em campo a partir de duas chaves analíticas principais: o fortalecimento de ondas neoconservadoras de orientação cristã, que visam à proteção da família como um valor; e a expansão de racionalidades neoliberais, que transferem para a família responsabilidades que em princípio caberiam ao Estado.

Published: November 2021

Latini’s masterpiece of Baroque cooking and household management was the first book to publish recipes using tomatoes and chilli peppers. This first complete English translation presents the text with contextual introduction and notes to aid the reader’s understanding. The Modern Steward was published in Naples in 1692-94, when the city was a major cultural centre. It includes a wealth of recipes, plus discussions of the kitchen and serving staff, setting the table, menus, protocol, entertainment, and wines. There are also sections on health, accounts of specific banquets, and even a description of an eruption of Vesuvius. It is the last great book of the Italian Renaissance and Baroque cooking tradition. Latini was also interested in local ingredients and customs, and open to new French trends. The book will interest historians of early modern Italy, food, material culture, and the social and cultural life of the European elites, as well as connoisseurs of fine dining, and cooks.
Alternative TV: The Genesis of The Simpsons
Authors: Fink Moritz
Published: November 2021

The Simpsons emerged out of a unique moment in U.S. television history,
when Fox Broadcasting began to establish itself as the fourth nationwide
broadcasting network by targeting a young-adult audience with its brand
of “alternative TV.” In addition to interrogating Fox’s strategy, this chapter
introduces the central figures behind The Simpsons. More specifically, I
analyze the role of James L. Brooks, whose name and clout as a successful
writer-producer largely helped to launch the series. Furthermore, I
spotlight the show’s “father,” Matt Groening, an alternative cartoonist
who entered the television industry as a sort of “auteur import” from
alternative comics culture, thus furnishing the program with street cred
and a subcultural sensibility.
Conclusion: The Simpsons, Cultural Feedback Loops, and the Case of Apu
Authors: Fink Moritz
Published: November 2021

The concluding chapter revisits the central idea behind this book—The
Simpsons’ trajectory into the age of convergence culture. More specifically,
the chapter discusses notions of the civic imagination and fan activism in
relation to The Simpsons, as well as the contested relationship between
the producers of a profitable media franchise and participatory culture.
In this connection, I interrogate the idea of cultural participation going
full circle and feeding back to the original text. Traditionally, the media
industries have resisted interference with what they consider their intellectual
property. But at the same time, they have to open up their work
to popular discourse in order for a product to remain popular and thus
to survive in the marketplace of convergence culture.
Videogames and Hamlet
Authors: Bushnell Rebecca
Published: November 2021

This chapter argues that videogames help us to see tragedy as a form
of serious play, engaging the dynamics of choice and consequences in
developing character and plot. It represents Hamlet as a gamelike play
in the context of its adaptation into videogames, including Ryan North’s
“To Be or Not to Be”: A Chooseable-Path Adventure; Hamlet, or The Last
Game without MMPORG Features, Shaders and Product Placement; Robin
Johnson’s The Most Excellent and Most Lamentable Text Adventure of
Hamlet, Prince of Denmark (2003); and Elsinore (2019). Often now viewed
as a paradigmatic early modern tragedy, it is also a powerful example of
how games and tragic theatre can inform each other.
Epilogue: Field of Play
Authors: Korda Natasha
Published: November 2021

If the study of early modern theatre and performance takes as its object
the study of “play,” this epilogue asks: What are the rules of the game?
How does conceptualizing early modern theatre and performance as
gamelike shift the field in which we work and the turf upon which we
play? Where are the parameters that delimit the field drawn, and how do
they determine what is considered to be in or out of bounds? Surveying
how these essays variously work with and play upon disciplinary rules and
boundaries, I suggest how other models and modalities of early modern
play might open the field to new modes of inquiry.
Introduction
Authors: Bishop Tom , Bloom Gina , Lin Erika T.
Published: November 2021

This introduction expounds the historical and theoretical overlaps
between games and theatre by analyzing how playing crucially links
these phenomena. The early modern English stage is an ideal locus
for exploring that intersection, given its cultural significance as ludic
entertainment and its ongoing impact on gaming today. We contextualize
these issues by examining scholarship on play, from Huizinga and
Caillois to more recent work; by centering aspects of drama beyond
mimesis and situating these within theatre and performance studies;
and by articulating how theatre challenges games as rule-bound systems.
We conclude with an overview of the volume’s three sections, respectively
on the history of early modern games, the incorporation of games
into stageplays, and Shakespearean drama’s legacy in contemporary
videogames.
Cahiers du cinéma’s Turn to Maoism: 1971-1973
Authors: Fairfax Daniel
Published: November 2021

Over the course of 1971, the limitations of Cahiers du cinéma’s alignment
with the PCF were keenly felt, and with the encouragement of Cahiers
alumnus Jean-Luc Godard and the literary journal Tel Quel, the editors
peremptorily switched allegiances to the Maoist movement. Although
a curious phenomenon in retrospect, French Maoism was a thriving
political force in the years following 1968, with thousands of students and
intellectuals taking inspiration from events in China. The change in line
had a convulsive impact on Cahiers: while initially the hyper-politicization
it produced coexisted with a continued cultivation of film theory and
criticism, by late 1972 the journal’s energies were focused on its project
for a “Front culturel révolutionnaire.” In the end, the lukewarm results
of this venture in 1973, combined with the general political climate in
France at the time, plunged Cahiers into a near-fatal crisis.
Jean-Louis Comolli: A Theoretical Practice of Political Cinema
Authors: Fairfax Daniel
Published: November 2021

In this chapter, Jean-Louis Comolli’s shift from editor of Cahiers du cinéma
to director of fiction and, predominantly, documentary films is followed.
After early forays in filmmaking in the late 1960s, his first significant project
was La Cecilia in 1976, a fictionalized account of an anarchist commune
in Brazil. But the bulk of his cinematic output since the 1980s has been in
documentary cinema, the highlight of which has been the multi-part series
focusing on electoral politics in the southern French city of Marseilles from
the 1980s to the present day, dubbed Marseille contre Marseille. As well
as practicing documentary filmmaking, Comolli has also continued to
develop his theoretical views on the cinema, resulting in a combination of
film theory and practice that has few equivalents in the contemporary era.
The Defense and Critique of Cinematic Modernism
Authors: Fairfax Daniel
Published: November 2021

This chapter shifts the focus from Cahiers’ re-reading of classical films to
the journal’s response to works of cinematic modernism. As in the earlier
chapter, the theoretical framework used to treat these films involves a
combination of Althusserian Marxism and Freudian psychoanalysis, but
whereas the analysis of commercially produced classical cinema entailed
“symptomatic” readings, the critical reception of modernist films had to
acknowledge the director’s own awareness of the possibility of critical
counter-interpretations. This optic was used on an array of filmmakers,
including Luis Buñuel, Jerry Lewis, Federico Fellini, the Taviani Brothers
and young filmmakers such as Philippe Garrel, Carmelo Bene and
Bernardo Bertolucci. Finally, Jean-Pierre Oudart and Serge Daney’s major,
Lacan-inspired critique of Luchino Visconti’s Morte a Venezia, “Le Nom
de l’auteur” is discussed.
Sandstone and the City
Authors: Stein Emma Natalya
Published: November 2021

Chapter One focuses on the last two centuries of the Pallava period (ca.
700-900 CE), when Kanchi became a city marked by the towers of many
sandstone temples. This period represents a pivotal moment in the history
of South Indian art, when stone supplanted brick as the construction
material for elite sacred architecture. Through a rigorous mapping of
the city’s surviving temples and archaeological remains, this chapter
reveals that Kanchi’s urban core doubled in size within a single century
and demonstrates that the eighth-century city was actually situated west
of present-day Kanchi. In the ninth century, growing political instability
within Kanchi prompted the Pallavas to concentrate their efforts on
outlying areas, while new rulers vied for power inside the city.
Realignment
Authors: Stein Emma Natalya
Published: November 2021

Centering on the emergence of a royal road, Chapter Two reveals Kanchi’s
underlying urban logic. All temples in the city faced this road, which
established an enduring pilgrimage network that connected northern
Tamil Nadu with the holy hilltop temple at Tirupati. Following the road
to the villages north and south of Kanchi, the chapter demonstrates that
changes in patronage structures in the rural hinterland supply valuable
information concerning similar transformations taking place on a
much larger scale and with greater complexity inside the borders of the
city. Presented here for the first time, this chapter identifies, maps, and
examines Kanchi’s Chola-era temples in the context of their contributions
to the growth and intensification of the urban space.
NEMATOIDES ENTOMOPATOGÊNICOS NO CONTROLE DE INSETOS-PRAGA NO BRASIL
Authors: Souza Jennifer Kawane Aparecida de , Ribeiro Alexandra Batistão , Marinho Amanda Camargo , Garcia Gustavo Santos , Oliveira Tulian Rosa De , Souza Jessica Aparecida De
Published: November 2021

Introdução: Várias espécies têm sido estudadas ao longo dos anos para determinação de seu potencial como agentes de controle biológico, principalmente para insetos com comportamento de fuga/escape. Dentre esses agentes em estudo, encontramos os nematóides. Esses nematodos são reproduzidos e comercializados em alguns locais do globo, como agentes de controle biológico de sucesso, conquistando pesquisadores e aguçando a curiosidade de grandes, médios e pequenos produtores, principalmente em produtores orgânicos, por serem um eficiente método de controle de pragas. Objetivos: O objetivo deste trabalho é apresentar os resultados e perspectivas do controle biológico de insetos por nematoides entomopatogênicos no Brasil. Materiais e Métodos: levantamento bibliográfico de informações atuais sobre o tema. O entendimento de cada peculiaridade das espécies alvo e dos isolados, suas características biológicas e ecológicas, e a busca por adaptações ou o desenvolvimento de métodos de aplicação a criação de formulações comerciais, a divulgação aberta de pesquisas com estes agentes, elaboração de palestras sobre o tema, e outros fatores extensionista vão aumentar a eficiência, interesse e procura pelos NEPs no controle de pragas agrícolas. Resultados: No Brasil, poucas são as pesquisas realizadas com este tipo de nematoide, porém a disseminação dos estudos, dos resultados positivos de pesquisas, tem aguçado a curiosidade do público, contribuindo com o relativo aumento pela procura aos nematoides benéficos a agricultura. O principal obstáculo entre os NEPS e o produtor, se dá pelo baixo número de empresas que comercializam e produzam esses nematoides, comprometendo a aplicação em larga escala no campo. Podemos adicionar como desafio desta comercialização, o fator cultural. Isso se dá pela falta de informações, em que muitas vezes no meio agrícola, quando abordamos o assunto nematoides, em primeiro momento o que se "vem à cabeça" do ouvinte faz referência aos fitoparasitas. Conclusão: Outros fatores ainda precisam ser analisados, como o custo final do produto, processo de registro, produção em massa, fatores essenciais para alavancar o estabelecimento de produção dos NEPs por empresas, e expandir em todo território seu uso como uma ferramenta de controle biológico.

Prosody training benefits in perception vs. production skills in simultaneous interpreting: an experimental study
Authors: Yenkimaleki Mahmood
Published: November 2021

The present study investigates the prosody training benefits for interpreter trainees in perception vs. production skills in simultaneous interpreting. Two groups of student interpreters were formed. Participants were assigned to groups at random. The control group received routine instruction in interpreting skills. The experimental group spent 20 minutes less time per session on the routine curriculum and instead re­ceived awareness training on prosodic features of English. The total instruction time was the same for the students in two groups, i.e., 15 hours. Students then took a posttest in interpretation skills. The results showed that the experimental group performed better than the control group in simultaneous interpretation performance. Moreover, the study revealed that prosody training enhances the students’ perception skills more than that of the production skills. These results have pedagogical implications for curriculum designers, interpreter training programs, and all who are involved in language study and pedagogy.

Abstract. We present an Arctic aerosol optical depth (AOD) climatology and trend analysis for 2003–2019 spring and summertime periods derived from a combination of multi-agency aerosol reanalyses, remote sensing retrievals, and ground observations. This includes the U.S. Navy Aerosol Analysis and Prediction System ReAnalysis version 1 (NAAPS-RA v1), the NASA Modern-Era Retrospective Analysis for Research and Applications, version 2 (MERRA-2), and the Copernicus Atmosphere Monitoring Service ReAnalysis (CAMSRA). Space-borne remote sensing retrievals of AOD are considered from the Moderate Resolution Imaging Spectroradiometer (MODIS), the Multi-angle Imaging SpectroRadiometer (MISR), and Cloud-Aerosol Lidar with Orthogonal Polarization (CALIOP). Ground-based data include sun photometer data from Aerosol Robotic Network (AERONET) sites and oceanic Maritime Aerosol Network (MAN) measurements. Aerosol reanalysis AODs and space-borne retrievals show consistent climatological spatial patterns and trends for both spring and summer seasons over the sub-Arctic (60–70° N). Consistent signs in the AOD trend are also found for the high Arctic (north of 70° N) from reanalyses. The aerosol reanalyses yield more consistent AOD results than climate models, verify well with AERONET, and corroborate complementary climatological and trend analysis. Speciated AODs are more variable than total AOD among the three reanalyses, and a little more so for March–May (MAM) than for June–August (JJA). Black Carbon (BC) AOD in the Arctic comes predominantly from biomass burning sources in both MAM and JJA, and biomass burning overwhelms anthropogenic sources in JJA for the study period. AOD exhibits a negative trend in the Arctic in MAM, and a positive trend in JJA during 2003–2019, due to an overall decrease in sulfate/anthropogenic pollutions, and a significant increase in biomass burning smoke in JJA. Interannual Arctic AOD variability is significantly large, driven by fine-mode, and specifically, biomass burning (BB) smoke, though more so in JJA than in MAM. Extreme AOD events during spring and summer in the Arctic, defined as AOD greater than the 95th percentile value, are mainly attributed to BB smoke transport events. Extreme AOD cases tend to occur later in the season (i.e., July and August, in the latter decade rather than spreading over April–August in the early decade during 2003–2019) corresponding to a shift to a later time in extreme boreal BB activities.

Abstract. Continental biogeochemical models are commonly used to prospect the effect of land use, exogenous organic matter input or climate change on soil greenhouse gas emission. However, they can still not be used to investigate the effect of soil contamination while it is known to affect several soil processes and to concern a large fraction of land surface. We implemented a commonly used model estimating soil nitrogen (N) emission, the DeNitrification DeCompostion (DNDC) model, with a function taking into account soil copper (Cu) contamination in nitrate production modulation. Then, we aimed at using this model to predict N-N2O, N-NO2 NOx and N-NH4 emissions in the presence of contamination and in the context of changes in precipitations. For that, incubations of soils were performed at different soil moistures in order to mimic expected rainfall patterns during the next decades and in particular drought and excess of water. The effect of this double stress on soil nitrate production was studied using a bio-assay. Then, data of nitrate production obtained under each moisture treatment were used to parameterize the DNDC model and estimate soil N emission considering the various effect of Cu. Whatever the moisture preincubation, experimental results showed a N-NO3 decreasing production when Cu was added but with different sharpness depending on soil moisture. The DNDC-Cu version we proposed was able to reproduce these observed Cu effects on soil nitrate concentration with r2 > 0.99 and RMSE < 10 % for all treatments in the DNDC-Cu calibration range (> 40 % of the water holding capacity) but showed poor performances for the dry treatments. We modelled a Cu-effect inducing an increase in N-NH4 soil concentration and emissions due to a reduced nitrification activity, and therefore a decrease in N-NO3, N-N2O and N-NOx concentrations and emissions. The effect of added Cu was larger on N-N2 and N-N2O emissions than on the other N species and larger for the soils incubated under constant than variable moisture.

Bohdan Łukaszewicz ogłosił w roku 1998 tom źródeł poświęcony wydarzeniom politycznym na Warmii i Mazurach w przełomowym roku 1956. W edycji tej znajduje się dokument „Memoriał delegacji Warmiaków i Mazurów” z 4 grudnia 1956 r. Został on zaczerpnięty z dziennika „Rzeczywistość”, Wydawca zaopatrzył publikację dokumentu w przypis o następującej treści: Memoriał na ręce przedstawicieli rządu, kierownictwa PZPR i ZSL złożyła 4 grudnia 1956 r. […]. Jak dotąd nie udało się odnaleźć pełnej wersji Memoriału. Ostatnio otrzymałem wiadomość od właściciela Oficyny Wydawniczej „Retman”, red. Waldemara Mierzwy, iż w posiadaniu rodziny Gerarda Skoka jest jednak pełna wersja tego dokumentu. Wkrótce otrzymałem ten tekst. Za zgodą jej właścicielki, mecenas Elżbiety Skok-Wierzchołowskiej, przygotowałem ten dokument do druku.
The first churches in Warmia and their influence on the development of local roads
Authors: Klimek Robert
Published: November 2021

W pierwszej części publikacji podjęto się analizy lokalizacji pierwszych kościołów odbudowanych przez Prusów w 1249 r. na obszarze Warmii w następujących miejscowościach: Jedun, Surimes, Bandadis, Slinia, Wuntenowe, Brusebergue. Następnie zwrócono uwagę na rozwój sieci parafialnej na obszarze dominium warmińskiego. Pierwszy kościół został wybudowany w Braniewie w 1280 r., następnie we Fromborku w 1288 powstał kościół katedralny. Rozwój sieci parafialnej w średniowiecznej Warmii prowadził także do powstania nowych dróg, zwanych zazwyczaj "drogami kościelnymi". Szlaki komunikacyjne były powiązane z powstawaniem nowych ośrodków, w których koncentrowało się życie gospodarcze czy religijne. Drogi do kościoła najczęściej stanowiły utarte już szlaki. Jednak należy zwrócić uwagę na fakt, że zakładanie nowych parafii i lokacje nowych wsi łączyło się z powstawaniem sieci komunikacyjnej, której lokalnym ośrodkiem stawał się kościół parafialny.

Firman Tuhan adalah dasar, suatu petunjuk hidup bahkan tuntunan bagi keluarga Kristen dan Tuhan menghendaki agar dalam hidup mereka, kesalehannya mereka terbukti melalui respon kepada Tuhan, dan yang secara terus menerus mengikuti segala ketetapan dan perintah Allah, serta menempatkan dirinya di bawah otoritas Firman Tuhan, dan pada saat yang bersamaan ia hidup tidak bercela. Namun pada kenyataannya, keluarga Kristen sedang mengalami keadaan yang buruk, bahkan masalah-masalah keluarga yang terjadi pada zaman sekarang ini telah dinubuatkan sejak dahulu kala. Ada keluarga hancur karena tekanan keuangan, ada keluarga yang diporak-porandakan oleh gaya hidup seks bebas. Keluarga yang lain lagi sedang mendekati kehancuran karena kurangnya komunikasi, dan lain sebagainya. Tujuan penelitian ini untuk mengetahui sejauh mana keluarga Kristen masa kini memahami dan mengalami makna “berbahagialah orang yang takut akan Tuhan” sesuai Mazmur 128. Metode yang digunakan adalah metode penelitian deskriptif melalui penelitian kepustakaan (Library Research) dan penelitian lapangan. Hasil penelitian yang diperoleh oleh adalah Takut akan Tuhan merupakan dasar hidup keluarga Kristen, baik dalam hubungan antara suami dan isteri maupun hubungan antara orangtua dan anak-anak. Keluarga yang berbahagia adalah keluarga yang takut akan Tuhan yang hidup menurut jalan yang ditunjukkan-Nya.
THE EFFECT OF 10-WEEK ISOKINETIC TRAINING ON MUSCLE STRENGTH AND GYMNASTIC PERFORMANCE IN PREADOLESCENT FEMALE GYMNAST

The purpose of this study was to investigate the effect of isokinetic training on muscle strength and gymnastic performance when added to traditional gymnastic training on handspring vault in preadolescent female gymnasts. Twenty female gymnasts with a mean age of 10.50 ± 1.19 years, height 125.50 ± 4.52cm, and body mass 27.30 ± 2.58 kg volunteered to participate in this study. A Cybex II Isokinetic dynamometer was used to measure the peak torque of the knee joint in extension at angular velocities of 60°/sec and 300°/ sec. A Casio EX-F1 (Tokyo, Japan) high speed video camera was placed perpendicular to the optical axis of springboard and vaulting horse. The subjects participated in 10-weeks training for three non-consecutive days per week, 2 hours per day, and separated into two equal groups. The experimental group (EG) followed a specialized training program (technical preparation and muscle strength via Cybex II), whereas the control group (CG) followed the traditional training program (technical preparation and muscle strength). Results showed no significant interaction was found for gymnastic score; however, a significant main effect was found for the time. No significant interaction effect among the three independent variables (group, time, side) was found for the knee extension at 60°/sec. However, the EG had a significantly higher mean values compared to the CG in the post-test. The interaction among the three independent variables with respect to the knee flexion at 300°/sec was not significant. However, the interaction between sides by group was significant. The 10-week isokinetic training added to the traditional training improved the knee strength, which consequently improved aspects of the vault, but did not affect other technical aspects of the handspring performance. Furthermore, results of our study support the claim that optimal performance is the result of a complex interaction of several factors.
The Role of Sports in Promoting Muslim-Jewish Social Ties: An Analysis

Those who support Sport for Development and Peace (SDP) often ensure that the game can have an impact. The study provides up-to-date information on this topic in the framework of the battle between Muslim Palestinians and Jewish Israelis. It examines the "harmony" segment of SDP initialism and what "harmony" resources in this struggle. Thirteen associations involved in peacekeeping activities in the region are evaluated. The article notes that most harmony plans involve Jewish Israelis and Muslim Palestinians/Arabs in Israel, while there are few attempts to reach Muslim Palestinians in Gaza Strip, the West Bank or in IDP camps in bordering nations. This game is not seen as an appropriate way to achieve peace between Muslim Palestinians and Jewish Israelis because of the lack of harmony which is a key precursor to compromise. The original policy, together with Israel's regional expansion and the Muslim Palestinians struggle for fundamental freedoms, forces "Sport for Harmony" programmes to create a framework that goes too far.
