Pepper is a vegetable which plays an important role in the human diet and health. Many insects attack this plant and decrease its production in the absence of appropriate phytosanitary treatment. Thus, the objective of the present study was to record the arthropods associated with the yellow and red pepper varieties. For this purpose, weekly observations were conducted during two cropping cycles on 192 plants, using a completely randomized device. As results, the fauna of the pepper was very diverse and stable (specific richness 47 and Equitability index 0.86). The yellow pepper was the most sensitive with an average of nine insect species per plant versus eight on the red pepper. These insects belonged to seven orders (Arachnida, Coleoptera, Diptera, Hemiptera, Hymenoptera, Lepidoptera and the Orthoptera), 28 families and 47 species. The densest orders were Diptera represented by Ceratitis capitata, Silba capsicarum, followed by Hymenoptera were represented by Camponotus floridanus, Camponotus acvapimensis and Crematogaster sp. and Hemiptera represented by Aphis gossypii, Macrosiphum euphorbiae, Pseudococcus sp. The present study provided a database on arthropodofauna of the pepper plant. This is of paramount importance for the development of healthy and sustainable protection strategies among pepper producers in order to improve national production.

Published: November 2023

Canine hip dysplasia is a complex developmental disease of coxo-femoral joints accounting for 30% of canine orthopaedic cases. Radiological examinations of coxofemoral joints are done to determine the genetic carriers for canine hip dysplasia (CHD) and remove such dogs from breeding. There is scanty record on prevalence of CHD in Boerboel dogs. We reviewed the anterioposterior and flexed lateral hip radiographs of apparently normal Boerboel dogs presented for hip certification between 2016 and 2022 to determine CHD prevalence in the breed. Radiographs were graded using modified Federation Cynologique International grading system. CHD prevalence was expressed as percentages, while age and sex difference in prevalence of CHD were compared using chi-square test. Relative percentages were calculated for CHD grades C, D, and E. Differences were considered significant at p ? 0.05. Median age for the dogs was 2 years with age ranging between 1 and 6 years. 27 (42.2%) were non dysplastic, while 37(57.8%) were dysplastic. Dogs with grade A accounted mostly for the non-dysplastic dogs, while dogs with grade C accounted mostly for dysplastic dogs. HD Prevalence was significantly (p < 0.05) higher in female than male, however, there was no significant (p > 0.05) difference in CHD prevalence between dogs (1 – 2 years of age) and dogs (3 – 6 years of age). Dogs with grade C have the highest relative percentage among the dysplastic grades. It was concluded that CHD prevalence in Boerboel dogs is high and dogs with grade C accounted for most of the CHD cases.

Published: November 2023

Oil tanker explosions are a fairly common cause of disaster in sub–Saharan Africa. These disasters may have secondary effects on health  service delivery due to collapse of routine health service provision as staff  concentrate on taking care of the disaster victims. This might  suggest that our hospitals and health systems are  not fully prepared to cope with these situations. The article aims to share our  experience in managing tanker explosions in terms of disaster preparedness and  response, access to drugs and medical supplies, access  to laboratory facilities and the medical and surgical  problems commonly encountered as well as possible recommendations.

Major Tamás: Téli rege, 1969 – Philther-előadáselemzés
Authors:   University of Arts Târgu Mureș, Bekő-Fóri Zenkő
Published: November 2023

The analysis of W. Shakespeare’s “The Winter’s Tale", directed by Tamás Major in 1969, uses the Philther methodology. The paper has six chapters, each of which examines the play from a different point of view. Major’s The Winter’s Tale is particularly interesting because, apart from this performance, there was no other example of a Hungarian guest director directing at a Romanian theatre until the 1989 regime change. Another important fact about this show: it is one of the first moves made by Mária Bisztrai as a director, who happens to be the first and only female director at the Cluj-Napoca Hungarian theatre. The setting can be seen as the canvas for the Budapest performance similarly directed by Major.

In my paper, I examine the variations of site-specific space. I make an attempt to formulate and describe how the performances taking place in site-specific space differ and what types of found spaces exist within a broader found space, also, how the viewer’s dialogue with the space develops, what other found elements can be observed, and what kind of communication they can create with them. I observe the extension of the environment and sound effects of the space and the development of its dialogue beyond that. Through the analysis of three performances (Maruša Kink’s “Three Sisters” in Ljubljana, Krisztián Kiliti’s “Trei surori” in Chișinău and István Albu’s “”Három nővér” in Gheorgheni) I examine the variations of the found space and the development of its dialogue with the viewer’s space and the extension and expansion of the environment and sound effects of the space.

Authors: Nolasari Tiwi , Ervina Iin
Published: November 2023

The emergence of deviant behavior among teenagers is caused by their inability to control their emotions. The tendency of teenagers to engage in deviant behavior can be controlled if they have well-developed emotional intelligence. Good emotional intelligence can help teenagers manage their emotions appropriately, enabling them to adapt to their environment. Family is one of the factors that influence emotional intelligence because the relationship between parents and teenagers has an impact on the emotional intelligence of teenagers. The aim of this study is to determine the difference in emotional intelligence between students whose parents are divorced and those whose parents are not (intact) at SMA PGRI Purwoharjo. This study is a comparative quantitative research involving 38 students with divorced parents and 38 students with intact parents at SMA PGRI Purwoharjo, selected using quota sampling technique. The study utilized an emotional intelligence scale (30 items, α = 0.866) adapted from Wardani's research (2019). The results of this study indicate that there is no difference in emotional intelligence between students with divorced parents and those with intact parents at SMA PGRI Purwoharjo (r = 0.759, p > 0.05).

Parents have a crucial role in nurturing, supporting, and educating their children. In reality, Retnaningtya & Pararamitha (2015) found that most parents only make minimal efforts to control and educate their children's development, with very few being significantly involved in their children's education. The aim of this research is to determine the influence of parental involvement on children's readiness to learn at TK Al-Amien Jember. This research employs a descriptive quantitative method. The total population is 271, with 142 parents as the sample, representing all the students at TK Al-Amien Jember. The sampling technique used is simple random sampling. Data collection utilizes two scales adapted and modified from the parental involvement scale by Hoover-Dempsey and Sandler (2005), consisting of 21 items, and the readiness to learn scale by Slameto (2010), consisting of 20 items. The analysis method involves testing the measurement tool, assumptions, and hypotheses using SPSS for Windows version 21 and MS Excel 2010. The correlation coefficient results indicate a 0.275 correlation between parental involvement and readiness to learn, with a two-tailed Sig value of 0.000. The findings show a positive relationship between parental involvement and readiness to learn. This suggests that the higher the parental involvement, the higher the children's readiness to learn, and conversely, lower parental involvement results in lower readiness to learn in children.

Some Linguistic Features of Internet Texts
Authors:   Candidate of a degree Azerbaijan University of Languages, Imanova Nahida Mahmud
Published: November 2023

Computer communication affects people to such an extent that the term “computer communication” is used instead of “communication through computer”. For example, we talk on the phone, write on the computer; communicate with different people, etc. The technology we use becomes so familiar to us that we even forget that it is a human-made device. It is as if we have dried up our communication over a living person. Internet linguistics is considered to be a scientific study of the manifestation of language in the electronic environment. Internet linguistics is the study of new language styles and forms created by the Internet. Internet linguistics can be developed in four perspectives: sociolinguistics, pedagogy, stylistics and applied linguistics. If we are talking about communication and conversation, we cannot go without mentioning the term discourse. Electronic discourse and computer-mediated discourse also create a foundation for the interactivity of computer users to maintain active social communication.

The coronavirus outbreak has a huge effect on the world, especially on education in Indonesia. Learning during the pandemic had the impact of decreasing students' thinking abilities, one of which was the skills to think creatively. The decline in students' thinking ability still occurs during endemic periods, such as decreased student interest in learning, less active students in learning activities in the classroom, and changes in student study habits. Electronic modules are an alternative that is used in learning during endemic times. This research was conducted at four schools in the province of Banten, which aims to find out the increase in students' creative thinking abilities by using electronic modules that are integrated with project-based learning. Data were obtained based on quantitative methods based on pretest and posttest values adjusted for creative thinking indicators. Normality and homogeneity tests were carried out on the samples to find out the similarity of the samples taken. Based on the test findings, it is possible that there is a significant increase in students using electronic modules. In addition, the module is also declared to have high effectiveness based on the n-gain score test.

Kertas kerja ini memberi tumpuan kepada kesan serta dimensi kesejahteraan sosial terhadap aktiviti berulang-alik setiap hari ke tempat kerja di Pulau Pinang, Malaysia. Oleh kerana taraf hidup yang lebih tinggi di kawasan bandar dengan adanya kemudahan infrastruktur, kesihatan dan pendidikan yang lebih baik, lebih ramai penjawat awam serta keluarga mereka masih belum bersedia untuk menyesuaikan gaya hidup di kawasan tersebut. Kongres Kesatuan Sekerja Dalam Perkhidmatan Awam (CUEPACS) mendapati kira-kira 60% penjawat awam tidak mampu untuk memiliki rumah sendiri berdekatan dengan tempat kerja mereka di kawasan bandar. Hanya kawasan di luar bandar menawarkan rumah mampu milik berharga tidak melebihi RM300,000 (USD65,000), manakala sebilangan besar penjawat awam bekerja di kawasan bandar. Status quo ini secara langsung menjadi salah satu faktor untuk mereka memilih terus tinggal di kawasan luar bandar yang jauh dari tempat mereka bekerja. Ini jelas menunjukkan bahawa sebilangan besar penjawat awam khususnya di Pulau Pinang tinggal di luar kawasan tempat mereka bekerja. Seramai 180 orang responden daripada kumpulan ini telah terlibat dalam tinjauan ini telah ditemu bual. Analisis kuantitatif telah dibincangkan dengan sewajarnya berdasarkan objektif kajian. Dapatan kajian menunjukkan sebilangan besar responden mengalami pelbagai kesulitan semasa berulang-alik setiap hari ke tempat kerja. Perjalanan ulang-alik jarak jauh turut menjejaskan kesejahteraan sosial, tekanan kerja dan kesihatan. Usaha untuk mengurangkan permasalah ini demi kelangsungan kehidupan yang lebih baik dalam kalangan mereka adalah amat penting. Peningkatan usaha boleh dilakukan melalui kerjasama dalam pelbagai program, faedah dan kemudahan seperti perlindungan, jaminan keselamatan, serta bantuan sosial.

Authors: Sorde John , Nwaozuzu Chijioke , Nteegah Alwell
Published: November 2023

This study investigated the impact of sectoral gas consumption on economic development in Nigeria from 2010 to 2020. Gas demand for power, industries, homes, transportation, and gas costs were used as the independent variables for sectoral gas demand, and the misery index was used as the dependent variable for sustainable economic development, in order to achieve the purpose of the study. The National Bureau of Statistics (NBS), the Nigeria Gas Company, and the Nigerian National Petroleum Corporation (NNPC) were the sources of data on sectoral gas demand and economic development. The Autoregressive and Distributed Lag (ARDL) technique was used to analyse the data after carrying out the unit roots test. The result shows that gas demand for transport, industrial, and power sectors as well as its cost contributed to a rise in the global misery index, which ultimately hampered long run sustainable economic development. On the other side, household demand for gas decreased the misery index and, over time, hence promoted long run economic development in Nigeria. The study also found an insignificant nexus between demand for gas by the various sectors and economic development in the long run. In the short run, gas demand for transport and cost of gas had significant impact on economic development. Based on these results, the study concludes that gas demand had serious implication on economic development in the short run than long run. Consequent upon the findings, the study recommended: an increase in gas demand for household use and for transportation through a stable and competitive price of natural gas in order to enhance sustainable economic development in Nigeria.
EXPLORANDO AS RAÍZES DA VITIMOLOGIA: O IMPACTO NAS CIÊNCIAS CRIMINAIS E SUA APLICAÇÃO PRÁTICA
Authors: Gomes Lopes André , De Assunção Gerfison Maico
Published: November 2023

O objetivo deste trabalho foi analisar especificamente a contribuição da Vitimologia para o ordenamento jurídico e sua aplicabilidade no direito penal moderno. Concluiu-se que, para uma análise mais aprofundada do "iter criminis", é necessário estudar o papel geral da vítima no ato criminal. A metodologia utilizada foi qualitativa, com ênfase em pesquisa bibliográfica, selecionando materiais impressos, livros, dados e fontes mais relevantes para o embasamento teórico. Além disso, foram mapeadas as leis que enfatizam o tema. No entanto, observa-se que a Vitimologia precisa ser mais aplicada no âmbito do direito penal brasileiro, tomando como exemplo outros contextos sociais que oferecem maior suporte à vítima. Diante do descaso enfrentado na maioria dos casos, muitas vezes a própria vítima não compreende a importância da reparação do dano. Ao considerar o objeto de estudo da Vitimologia, percebe-se sua contribuição para a Criminologia e para o Direito Penal. A Vitimologia contribui para a Criminologia ao abordar um aspecto que anteriormente não era estudado, possibilitando assim um maior controle social do crime.

Desde el análisis del concepto de artillería se busca comprender algunas de sus definiciones y propósitos que permitan establecer el porqué de su importancia para los Estados en el contexto internacional; ello a partir de un breve recorrido histórico, útil para asimilar la evolución de la artillería como pieza bélica desde sus orígenes (aproximadamente siglo XIII) hasta el presente. La comprensión conceptual desde las Relaciones Internacionales y la óptica Neorrealista facilita la comprensión de la posesión y uso de piezas de artillería, como expresión propia de la acumulación y proyección de poder Estatal en el Sistema Internacional, situación posible de observar en el marco de la confrontación bélica entre Ucrania y la Federación Rusa, desencadenada en febrero de 2022.   La metodología de enfoque cualitativo y diseño en teoría fundamentada se emplea en este artículo junto con el recurso de análisis bibliométrico. Los hallazgos identificados entre el funcionamiento y los usos de la artillería permiten equipararla como mecanismo de proyección de poder; su relevancia militar (reflejada en la actualidad en el contexto bélico ruso-ucraniano) radica en la extensión del ataque posicional del poder de fuego, efectuado desde locaciones seguras con respecto a la ubicación de un frente de combate. En materia de relacionamiento entre actores del Sistema Internacional, el incremento del gasto militar en piezas de artillería agudiza la desconfianza entre los Estados en la medida en que aumenta la proyección de poder de sus adversarios.

This scientific article provides an overview and analysis of various models of interaction between religious and secular values in foreign countries. Three main models are analyzed: secularism, religious state, and mixed approach, based on detailed studies of examples from France, the United Kingdom, and Iran. To gain a comprehensive and in-depth understanding of the role of religious and secular values in the society and culture of different countries, research by scholars such as Olivier Roy, Caroline Fourest, Nathan Olsen, Girayalp Karakuş, Linda Woodhead, and Gavin D’Costa is examined. The analysis of the advantages and disadvantages of each model allows identifying diverse aspects of their implementation in socio-cultural and political contexts. Based on the comparison of different models and aspects of their implementation, the conclusion is drawn that there is a need to find a unique balance between respecting religious freedoms and ensuring the secular nature of the state for each country in accordance with its specificity and societal needs. An open dialogue, grounded in scientific research, can contribute to effective resolution of conflicts and the creation of optimal conditions for sustainable and harmonious societal development.

Trapping bears (Ursidae) with Aldrich leg snares has established itself as one of the most successful methods of trapping live animals with minimal injury. Most documented injuries are related to damage caused by the trap and prolonged exposure to it. Various physiological and behavioural responses have been observed, however self-eating of the toes of the captured foot has not been described so far. In November 2017 an adult male brown bear was caught with a standard Aldrich type leg snare. When the research team arrived, the bear teared off and swallowed phalanges of the first toe of its rear left foot before it could be sedated. The bear was measured and marked with GPS-GSM collar. Following the instalment of the collar, the animal was monitored for the duration of 23 months when the drop-off mechanism of the collar was activated. This rule out the possibility that a serious life threatening complications arised from the trauma.

The health and safety of school children in Indonesia in the consumption of snacks in the school environment is an important aspect that needs to be carefully guarded. Ensuring that children receive healthy, safe, and nutritious snacks requires rigorous legal tools. This article reviews the existing legal framework and enforcement measures needed to ensure the health and safety of schoolchildren during snack consumption. While there are already regulations governing snacks, law enforcement, and public awareness in this regard remain a challenge. The government needs to improve law enforcement efforts by conducting strong coordination, strict supervision of food manufacturers, and providing counseling to parents and students on the importance of choosing healthy snacks. With strong regulations and effective law enforcement, we can ensure that schoolchildren in Indonesia consume healthy and safe snacks and support their proper growth and development for a healthier and more competitive young generation for the betterment of the nation.
Assessment of soil properties in technogenically disturbed lands of Kemerovo Oblast – Kuzbass
Authors: Osintseva Maria
Published: November 2023

Recultivation is a critical operation after mining operations. In Kemerovo Oblast – Kuzbass, Russia, a lot of land has suffered degradation due to stripping operations. The purpose of the study is to examine the technical, technological, and biological properties of lands technogenically disturbed as part of coal mining operations in Kuzbass. The object under study is soil and soil cover in the Talda coal mine at the experimental site and adjacent territories. The research goal is achieved through the following methods. The granulometric composition of soil is assessed using the areometric method. The structural-aggregate analysis is performed based on the distribution of aggregate content by size with a set of soil sieves. Water stability is established using the method of disintegration of soil aggregates under a layer of water up to 2 cm high for 10 minutes. The ecological condition of the soil is assessed based on its enzyme and biological activity. The conducted investigation reveals increased stoniness, hygroscopicity, and low humus content of soils on technogenically disturbed land plots. Technogenically disturbed lands are marked by more acidic and heavy metal-contaminated soils. No exceedances are detected for pesticides and radionuclides. The results demonstrate weak enzymatic (cellulolytic, catalase, dehydrogenase, urease, phosphatase, invertase, and soil respiration) and catalytic activity of the soils. All obtained results of assessment of soil conditions on the experimental site and adjacent territories should be used in planning further experimental work on conducting the biological recultivation phase to minimize random experimental errors associated with the influence of native vegetation cover and primary soil conditions on the survival of crops sown on the site.

In today's competitive grocery retail environment, effective inventory management coupled with precise sales prediction is pivotal for success. This research undertakes an in-depth exploration into a machine learning framework tailored for "Sales Forecasting and Inventory Optimization in Grocery Retail." Utilizing historical sales records, meteorological data, and consumer behavior metrics, the proposed model endeavors to predict nuanced seasonal demand fluctuations. The primary value proposition of this approach lies in its capacity to curtail wastage, ensuring the balance between overstocking and inventory stockouts. By recognizing and adjusting for seasonal dynamics, the system offers enhanced demand fulfillment during high-demand periods. The subsequent refinement of the replenishment cycle fosters superior operational efficacy. As an outcome, businesses witness cost reductions, augmented profit margins, and elevated consumer contentment due to consistent product availability. As the broader grocery sector undergoes transformation, embedding sophisticated machine learning strategies can be a linchpin for sustained adaptability and competitiveness. This research further underscores the role of emergent technologies, such as machine learning within the IoT spectrum, in reshaping supply chain and communication paradigms. The endeavor here is to curtail lifecycle expenses in the supply chain by refining inventory practices. The research introduces a Deep Inventory Management (DIM) technique, employing the GradientBoostingRegressor paradigm of machine learning. Through DIM's innovative approach, time-series challenges are reimagined as supervised learning tasks, enabling efficient model training. Preliminary tests indicate DIM's prediction accuracy hovers around 85%, translating to an impressive 15% reduction in inventory expenses when juxtaposed with prevailing methods, alongside rapid anomaly detection in inventory activities
