Luis Eduardo Aute y su Templo de erotismo
Authors: Díez J. Ignacio
Published: September 2021

Las letras de las canciones de Templo, de Luis Eduardo Aute, se publican antes en Templo de carne, que, a su vez, se corresponden con una exposición. El doble álbum se ha compuesto sobre un erotismo supuestamente sacro, aunque, en realidad, acoge un cálido erotismo que maneja las imágenes y el vocabulario de la liturgia católica, en gran parte. El imaginario de Aute es autónomo de sacralidades y misticismos y se organiza en una forma provocadora y propia.ABSTRACT: The lyrics of Templo were published before in Templo de carne (Temple of ﬂ esh), that, at the same time, is related with an exhibition of paintigs. The double album was composed on the basis of a supposedly sacred eroticism, but actually houses a warm eroticism which manages images and vocabulary mostly of catholic liturgy. The Aute’s imaginary is autonomous of sacralities and mysticisms and it has been organized in a procative and proper form.
Del mito a la escena. Una Fábula de Dafne de ﬁnales del siglo XVI en las descalzas reales
Authors: Borrego Gutiérrez Esther
Published: September 2021

RESUMEN: La anónima Fábula de Dafne, representada entre 1585 y 1593 en el Monasterio de las Descalzas Reales, supone el primer acercamiento teatral en España al mito de Apolo y Dafne. Este trabajo comenta aspectos relevantes de una pieza representada en un entorno conventual, que pone las bases de un teatro híbrido entre lo mitológico y lo pastoril, continuado por el mismo Lope de Vega pocos años más tarde. Se aborda el tratamiento del mito, la signiﬁcación política de la pieza y ciertos aspectos relacionados con la puesta en escena de esta original comedia.ABSTRACT: The anonymous Fábula de Dafne, staged between 1585 and 1593 at the Monasterio de las Descalzas Reales, is the ﬁ rst theatrical approach in Spain to the myth of Apollo and Daphne. This paper comments on relevant aspects of a piece staged at a convent that sets the basis for a hybrid drama, between the mythological and the pastoral, continued by Lope de Vega himself a few years later. The treatment of the myth, the political meaning of the piece, and some aspects related to the staging of this original comedy are also analyzed.

El retrato y sus valores ónticos
Authors: Lara Garrido José
Published: September 2021

Tras analizar la fundamentación de ciertas explicaciones difundidas desde la Antigüedad entre el arte y su valor creativo (nucleado en el poder concedido al hombre de imitar), se estudian las variadas respuestas a la conexión de fictor y pictor. La mediación entre pintura y poesía en la retratística a partir del Renacimiento permite la difusión de un espacio discursivo sobre el retrato fundado en la idea del prometeísmo. Surge como formulación específica la del retratismo en que poesía y pintura se fundan en la variedad histórica del estatuto de la semejanza. Con respuestas varias el poeta retratado se dirige al pintor (o al cuadro) en una panoplia de variaciones que van desde el máximo (el estereotipo de la semejanza absoluta) al mínimo (la desemejanza y la pérdida de valor del cuadro). Para ello se van remarcando sutilísimas variaciones sobre el arquetipo de la semejanza y el valor consiguiente del artista como especie de Deus occasionatus. Variaciones que van desde Paravicino y Góngora a sor Juana Inés de la Cruz, pasando por Anastasio Pantaleón de Ribera, Alonso de Alarcón, Gabriel de Bocángel, José de Valdivielso, Antonio de Solís o Álvaro Cubillo de Aragón. Afirmando el secreto de la pintura, la mirada es objeto del propio mirar y una forma ontológica de saberes sobre la imagen y el arte.

IMPLIKASI KEBERADAAN FRAKSI PARTAI POLITIK DALAM KELEMBAGAAN DPR
Authors: Cahyawati Dwi Putri , Hoesein Zainal Arifin , Widadi Eka
Published: September 2021

Dewan Perwakilan Rakyat sebagai salah satu lembaga parlemen di Indonesia, merupakan lembaga perwakilan rakyat. Hal ini setidaknya tercermin dalam Pasal 20 UUD NRI 1945 yang menegaskan bahwa DPR memegang kekuasaan membentuk undang-undang. Sebagai lembaga perwakilan rakyat, sudah seharusnya setiap anggota DPR menjalankan fungsinya sebagai wakil rakyat. Pelaksanaan fungsi ini terdegradasi setelah dalam UU No. 2 Tahun 2018 dan UU No. 2 Tahun 2011 dikenal adanya fraksi partai politik dalam kelembagaan DPR. Walaupun keberadaan fraksi ini dimaksudkan untuk pengelompokan anggota berdasarkan konfigurasi partai politik berdasarkan hasil pemilihan umum, namun di sisi lain fraksi juga memiliki kewenangan seperti melakukan pergantian antar waktu (PAW) anggotanya yang duduk sebagai anggota DPR, sehingga hal ini dapat menggangu pelaksanaan fungsi DPR sebagai perwakilan rakyat. Penelitian ini menggunakan metode penelitian normatif. Hasil penelitian menemukan bahwa keberadaan fraksi dalam kelembagaan DPR merupakan kepanjangan partai politik dan hal ini membawa implikasi lain berupa terganggunnya pelaksanaan fungsi perwakilan rakyat oleh setiap anggota DPR menjadi perwakilan partai.Kata Kunci: Fraksi, Partai Politik, dan DPR.

Berdasarkan Pasal 18B UUD NRI 1945, Indonesia menerapkan desentralisasi asimetris dengan mendasarkan pada kekhususan dan keistimewaan daerah, termasuk dalam hal sistem pemilihan kepala daerah. Namun keragaman sistem pemilihan tersebut bukan berarti tanpa batas, melainkan harus sejalan dengan prinsip demokratis dalam Pasal 18 ayat (4) UUD NRI 1945. Penelitian ini hendak menelaah sistem pemilihan kepala daerah yang digunakan oleh daerah yang memberlakukan desnetralisasi asimetris. Jenis penelitian yang digunakan adalah penelitian normatif dengan pendekatan deskriptif. Hasil penelitian menyimpulkan, bahwa dari empat daerah yang memberlakukan desentralisasi asimetris, hanya tiga daerah yang kepala daerahnya dipilih melalui sistem yang demokratis, dan masih ada satu daerah yang sistem pemilihan kepala daerahnya tidak demokratsi.Kata Kunci: Desentalisasi Asimetris, Sistem Pemilihan, Pemilihan Kepala Daerah.

Penjadwalan proyek dikatakan sesuai dengan rencana jika terlaksana sesuai dengan target yang telah ditentukan. Penjadwalan pada proyek merupakan salah satu elemen dari hasil perencanaan, yang dapat memberikan informasi tentang jadwal rencana dan kemajuan proyek dalam hal kinerja sumber daya berupa biaya, tenaga kerja, peralatan dan material serta rencana durasi dan progress waktu untuk penyelesaian proyek, Proses pemantauan serta pembaruan selalu dilakukan untuk mendapatkan penjadwalan yang paling realistis agar alokasi sumber daya dan penetapan durasinya sesuai dengan sasaran dan tujuan proyek. Penelitian ini menggunakan metode kuesioner dalam pencarian data. Sampel yang digunakan adalah karyawan yang bekerja di Kawan Lama Retail sejumlah 32 orang dengan menggunakan metode simple random sampling. Penelitian ini hanya dibatasi pada analisis mengenai hubungan bekerja jarak jauh dan komunikasi terhadap penjadwalan proyek di Kawan Lama Retail. Metode analisis yang digunakan adalah uji validitas, uji reliabilitas, analisis determinasi, analisis regresi dan korelasi baik sederhana maupun berganda. Sehingga melalui metode ini dapat diketahui seberapa besar hubungan bekerja jarak jauh dan komunikasi terhadap penjadwalan proyek di Kawan Lama Retail. Dari hasil penelitian, menunjukkan bahwa terdapat hubungan positif dan signifikan antara bekerja jarak jauh dan komunikasi secara bersama-sama dengan penjadwalan proyek. Dengan kata lain jika tidak ada peningkatan dalam bekerja jarak jauh dan komunikasi yang baik maka penjadwalan tidak akan memenuhi target yang ada. Namun perlu diperhatikan bahwa konstanta penjadwalan proyek mempunyai nilai negatif, dimana jika dalam bekerja jarak jauh dan komunikasi tidak diperhatikan dengan baik, maka penjadwalan proyek di Kawan Lama Retail tidak akan berjalan sesuai dengan target.

Authors: Hutahaean Mega Maharani , Hardjomuljadi Sarwono
Published: September 2021

Latar belakang yang mendasari penelitian ini adalah permasalahan-permasalahan sekitar pelaksanaan konstruksi yang berhubungan dengan faktor biaya, mutu, dan waktu. Hal ini terjadi karena pelaku dalam industri konstruksi tidak mentaati apa yang sudah tertulis dan disepakati bersama dalam suatu kontrak konstruksi. Topik ini menjadi menarik ketika banyak sekali persoalan menyangkut kegiatan konstruksi yang berlaku di Indonesia tetapi penyelesaiannya merugikan salah satu pihak yang merasa sudah menjalankan tugas dan kewajibannya tanpa ada telaahan atau kajian terhadap permasalahan serupa yang bisa dijadikan acuan alternatif penyelesaian sengketa. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mendapatkan pemahaman bahwa Badan Pemeriksa Keuangan Republik Indonesia (BPK RI) melalui hasil pemeriksaannya dapat mendukung penyelesaian sengketa yang sering terjadi di industri konstruksi. Dengan menggunakan metode penelitian deskriptif yaitu dengan melakukan pengumpulan data primer melalui permintaan data langsung ke satuan kerja PPID BPK RI berupa data pengaduan yang berasal dari eksternal BPK RI baik masyarakat, lembaga sosial masyarakat, rekanan swasta, BUMN/D, Pemerintah Pusat/Daerah, DPR/DPD/DPRD, Laporan Hasil Pemeriksaan BPK RI yang sudah terbit dari portal BPK RI https://portal.bpk.go.id/.  Data yang didapatkan diolah dengan membuat matriks pengelompokkan atas permasalahan yang sering terjadi di industri konstruksi. Pengolahan data dilakukan dengan tujuan mencari dan menguraikan keterkaitan output sekecil apapun dari BPK RI yang berhubungan dengan dunia konstruksi sebagai alternatif penyelesaian masalah yang dihadapi pihak-pihak yang bersengketa.

Authors: NEVREDINOV Aleksandr R.
Published: September 2021

Subject. When evaluating enterprises, maximum accuracy and comprehensiveness of analysis are important, although the use of various indicators of organization’s financial condition and external factors provide a sufficiently high accuracy of forecasting. Many researchers are increasingly focusing on the natural language processing to analyze various text sources. This subject is extremely relevant against the needs of companies to quickly and extensively analyze their activities.
Objectives. The study aims at exploring the natural language processing methods and sources of textual information about companies that can be used in the analysis, and developing an approach to the analysis of textual information.
Methods. The study draws on methods of analysis and synthesis, systematization, formalization, comparative analysis, theoretical and methodological provisions contained in domestic and foreign scientific works on text analysis, including for purposes of company evaluation.
Results. I offer and test an approach to using non-numeric indicators for company analysis. The paper presents a unique model, which is created on the basis of existing developments that have shown their effectiveness. I also substantiate the use of this approach to analyze a company’s condition and to include the analysis results in models for overall assessment of the state of companies.
Conclusions. The findings improve scientific and practical understanding of techniques for the analysis of companies, the ways of applying text analysis, using machine learning. They can be used to support management decision-making to automate the analysis of their own and other companies in the market, with which they interact.

Special Aspects of Russian Investments
Authors: SMIRNOV Valerii V.
Published: September 2021

Subject. The article addresses Russian investments.
Objectives. The focus is on revealing the special aspects of Russian investments.
Methods. The study rests on the systems approach, using the method of statistical, neural network, and cluster analysis.
Results. I highlight the relevance of the analysis of characteristics of Russian investments. The paper unveils the lack of consistency between strategic and tactical investment priorities and, as a result, the encouraging of the beneficiaries of the Russian private property to actively participate in the political life of the State to use not only their own funds, but also attracted ones, i.e. long-term financial investments in shares and other forms of participation in capital, including funds from the issue of Federal loan bonds, corporate bonds and shares. The paper also defines the most effective structure of the balance of "Financial Assets Minus Liabilities" and significant financial ties of the Russian economy sectors. The specific aspects of Russian investments are related to the orientation towards the development of the banking sector by ensuring the growth of retail lending, investments in Federal loan bonds, and operations to manage short-term liquidity. Curbing the devaluation of the national currency can be ensured by attracting funds from insurers, investment funds, and non-State pension funds to purchase Federal loan bonds.
Conclusions. The basis of the Russian approach to investment is a reflection of the limits of economic development and the effectiveness of the government.

Licensed warehousing activities in the agricultural sector started with the Agricultural Products Licensed Warehousing Law No. 5300, which was enacted in 2005. It was opened with the support of the state, was developed with the published regulations and started to work under the leadership of the state. The importance of licensed warehouses has increased with the sustainable agriculture approach, which is among Turkey's 2023 Strategic Goals. In Turkey, their number has been increasing in recent years and the licensed warehousing system is of great importance in terms of agricultural products. In this study, the theoretical dimension of the licensed warehousing system and the producers delivering cereals to LİDAŞ operating in Kırşehir Mucur district were evaluated. The sample of the research consists of 70 producers who deliver products to LİDAŞ in the region. When the results obtained are examined, 61.40% of the producers cannot store, 45.70% keep their products at LİDAŞ for an average of 1-3 months, the most important support tool is withholding tax, 80.00% is pricing. It has been determined that LİDAŞ does not have any influence on the cereal planting decision of 60.00%. In addition, other problems of the producers, procedural problems, analysis fees, loading and unloading fees, warehouse rental fees and withholding costs create a negative situation for the producer. The real decline in the amount of support comes to the fore as negative thoughts about working personnel, low capacity in storage facilities and narrow product range to be stored. It can be said that the tendency towards licensed warehousing activities will increase with the solution of these problems.

As in all residential areas are also spatial disparities in Turkey. These socio-economic differences interact with the agricultural sector. While agricultural development positively affects the overall socio-economic development, it also supports the agricultural infrastructure and development. The aim of research is to calculate the socio-economic development index of 81 provinces and to determine their effects on agriculture. In this context, socio-economic development over 106 factor using exploratory factor analysis obtained from the TSI calculated. It is concluded that the socio-economic development ranking is parallel to the population of the provinces. For this reason, population groups are used in rankings other than general ranking. According to the results of the analysis, the general development rankings and the prominent agricultural factors (agricultural production area, agricultural production value) rankings were created. Unlike other development studies conducted, agricultural factors were included more in the analysis. Although the 1st population group, which includes the most densely populated provinces, is found in the rankings where agricultural factors are prominent, it has been determined that the population groups 4, 5 and 6 are in a developed position. This situation stems from Turkey's agricultural potential is present in many provinces. It is necessary to carry out studies for the agricultural sector in order to ensure both the agricultural sector and regional development.

On the other hand, due to the limited studies on collection and morphological characterization, which are the first step of breeding; the genetic potential of the local okra genotypes of Northern Cyprus has not been determined before. This research was carried out in two stages as the collection and morphological characterization of genotypes. In the first stage of the study, it was aimed to collect local okra genotypes and a total of 58 different locations were reached in line with this target and 24 samples of okra genotypes were collected from these areas. In the second year of the study, morphological characterization studies of 24 okra genotypes from the collected genetic material were carried out according to UPOV and IPGR criteria. As a result of morphological characterization showed that 24 okra genotypes can be categorized under 6 different groups. The regenerated seeds of these 6 different genotypes were preserved. In conclusion, although morphological characterization analyses performed in this study are the methods used to differentiate new species from each other, but it will be insufficient alone. Therefore, it is concluded that this method will be used in coordination with molecular characterization studies to provide more reliable results.

Published: September 2021

Bovine and caprine mastitis is a dreadful bacterial disease that drastically lowers milk production, and presently it is spreading as an endemic pathogen throughout the world, including Bangladesh. Moreover, mastitis is the main impediment to Bangladesh’s tremendously rising milk-related industry and general livestock economy. Therefore, the aim of this study is to demonstrate the overall prevalence of clinical and sub-clinical mastitis in both dairy cows and goats. It is the foremost meta-analysis study regarding mastitis prevalence in Bangladesh and the study gathered the articles from the electronic database on the topic bovine and caprine mastitis published between January 2005 and November 2020. Finally, 33 articles were selected for estimating the overall prevalence rate of mastitis in ruminant (cow and goat) via random effect model estimation. Analyzing the result, the study found 43.0% (95% Cl: 37.0 - 50.0%) and 31.0% (95% Cl: 15.0 - 47.0%) prevalence rate in dairy cattle and goat. Statistically, the occurrence rate in Bangladesh is significantly higher than other countries. Although many studies showed the seroprevalence across different districts, this study demonstrates the aggregate incidence rates across Bangladesh as a whole. This paper may also serve as a reference point for the implementation of any control strategy of mastitis in Bangladesh.

The assessed external and internal egg quality characteristics included egg weight, shape index, shell thickness, shell breaking strength, albumen index, Haugh unit, yolk index, and yolk colour. The effect of production system on albumen index, Haugh unit, and yolk colour score was found statistically significant. There was a significant effect of age on shape index, shell thickness, shell breaking strength, albumen index, Haugh Unit, yolk index, and yolk colour score. The effect of interaction between age and production system was statistically significant for shape index, shell thickness, yolk index, Haugh Unit, and yolk colour score. It was determined that the egg`s meat and blood spots percentages from the free-range and backyard systems were 10.6% and 15.3%, respectively. It was concluded that while eggs produced from free-range system are superior in terms of egg weight, shape index, and Haugh unit those obtained from backyard hens are higher in eggshell thickness, eggshell breaking strength, and egg yolk colour.

Royal jelly (RJ), is one of the important honey bee products and a functional food item in the regulation of diets and in the cosmetic industry. RJ has a potential towards various human disease treatments. The chemical content of RJ is influenced by some factors. In this study, the effect of the presence or absence of the queen on the amount of 10-hydroxy-2-decenoic acid (10-HDA) and soluble protein in RJ is determined. For this reason, colonies were prepared as queenless, queenright and starter-finisher. RJ yields in colonies queenless, queenright and starter-finisher were determined as 15.2 ± 0.89 g, 12.0 ± 0.90 g and 9.6 ± 0.72 g, respectively. Group queenless was different from the other two groups. While 10-HDA values of the groups were similar (queenless, queenright and starter-finisher, respectively; 2.0 ± 0.06%, 2.1 ± 0.06% and 2.0 ± 0.05%), the soluble protein amounts of the groups (queenless, queenright and starter-finisher, respectively, 9.65 ± 0.179%, 7.68 ± 0.184%, 7.50 ± 0.203%) were found different and significant from each other. As a result, the RJ production colony queenless or queenright affected the amount of soluble protein. The worker bees of queenless colonies secreted RJ containing more soluble protein.

In this study, the antioxidant activity values of infusions at different temperatures of the commercially sold rosehip tea bag. To determine the effect of different infusion temperatures on antioxidant activity, 7 different temperatures (0, 15, 30, 45, 60, 75, 90°C) also including cold infusions temperatures were selected. Infusions of the rosehip tea bags were prepared with packaged drinking water for 5 minutes (recommended time in tea bag packaging) at these temperatures. Antioxidant activity values of the infused extracts were determined by antioxidant activity determination methods: TPC (Total Phenolic Compound), CUPRAC (Cu (II) Ion Reducing Antioxidant Capacity), FRAP (Iron (III) Ion Reducing Antioxidant Power) and ABTS•+ (2.2-azinobis- (3-ethylbenzothiazoline-6-sulphonic acid)) radical scavenging assay. According to the results obtained by the antioxidant determination methods, the highest and lowest activity values for TPC, FRAP and ABTS were measured at 90°C and 0°C, respectively, and a positive correlation was found between temperature and antioxidant activity values. Contrary to the activity values determined in these methods, in the CUPRAC method, the highest and the lowest activity value was measured at 45°C and 90 °C, respectively. As determined in the CUPRAC method, infusions of rosehip tea at low temperatures may provide an advantage in terms of the solubility of some phenolics that can be denatured at high temperatures. In addition, rosehip tea infusions at lower temperatures will contribute to lower energy costs.

There are few studies in Botswana which have examined the relationship between agriculture and economic growth. The uniqueness of this study is grounded in investigating disintegrated agriculture components into crop production and livestock production and investigating their nexus with economic growth. This study estimated the short and long term effects between crop production, livestock production and economic growth in Botswana for the period 1990 to 2017. The Auto-Regressive Distributed Lagged (ARDL) bounds testing approach was employed to investigate the stated relationship. Study findings from the ARDL bound testing approach confirm evidence of a long-run equilibrium relationship between crop production, livestock production and economic growth. Results indicated that livestock production has a positive and significant impact on economic growth both in the short run and long run. On the other hand crop production has a positive and significant impact on economic growth only in the long run. Efforts towards supporting agricultural sector growth should be emphasized to promote agricultural sector productivity in a bid to forge a move away from dependence on imports of food in Botswana. To enhance economic growth, in both the short run and long run, the government of Botswana and all relevant stakeholders should invest in and promote livestock production. In the long term, policies that foster crop production are essential for economic growth.

Two experiments were conducted in the Savelugu-Nanton Municipality of the Northern Region of Ghana in 2012 and 2013 to assess the effect of N fertilizer on growth, N remobilization and grain yield of three local varieties of soybean (Glycine max [L] Merill). The experiments were a 3 x 4 factorial laid in Randomized Complete Block Design (RCBD) with four replications. Factor A was soybean varieties (Jenguma, Quarshie, Ahotor); Factor B was 0, 15, 30 and 45 kg N ha-1. The experimental fields were planted manually on the flat by drilling and later thinned to 2 plants hill-1 at 0.50 m × 0.10 m with a population of about 400 000 plants ha-1. Growth and yield parameters measured were plant height, nodule number plant-1, nodule dry weight plant-1, percent nodule effectiveness, number of pods plant-1, number of seeds pod-1, 100 seed weight, harvest index and grain yield. The results showed that the control recorded lower figures in all growth parameters. Nitrogen remobilization was also observed in all plots, which indicate that soybean needs greater levels of N during grain filling. Again, N remobilization and soybean yield were highest in the 45 kg N ha-1 treatment compared to the other treatments. However, considering the overall yields, farmers in the study area should be advised to adopt starter N fertilization of soybean for higher yields as the soils are highly degraded in soil fertility.

In the study, the bioactive, physicochemical and antimicrobial properties of koruk juice and dried koruk pomace were investigated. The total phenolic contents of koruk juice and pomace were determined as 1119.670 and 1182.170 mg GAE/L, respectively. Higher DPPH radical scavenging activity found in koruk pomace, which was consistent with total phenolic contents. Organic acid, total sugar and ascorbic acid contents of koruk juice (3.44%, 4.737 g/L and 2.559 mg/100 mL) were higher than koruk pomace (0.19%, 0.866 g/L and 0.242 mg/100 mL). The counts of Total Psychrophilic Aerobic Bacteria and mold-yeast in pomace were determined as 0.694 and 1.016 log CFU/g, respectively, while no growth was observed in koruk juice. Koruk juice and pomace indicated antimicrobial effect on all test microorganisms in the range of 31.3-500.0 µg/mL (Minimum Inhibition Concentration). The most sensitive bacteria to koruk juice were Bacillus cereus, while Pediococcus acidilactici was the most sensitive one to koruk pomace. Koruk juice also showed bactericidal effect on all test cultures at concentration ranging between 250.0 and 500.0 µg/mL (Minimum Bactericidal Concentration), koruk pomace was not showed bactericidal effect on Escherichia coli O157:H7, Salmonella Typhimurium, E. coli and B. cereus. This study demonstrated that the koruk products could be used in food applications as natural antioxidant and antimicrobial substance.

Authors: Ton Aybegün
Published: September 2021

Sustainable agriculture bases on certain ecological principles in both of crop production and livestocks. Legume-cereal intercropping in sustainable agricultural cropping system is the most applied in the intercropping systems in the World. Legume-cereal intercropping have many benefits such soil conservation, weed control, animal feed and effective land use, greater yield and quality in low-input agricultural system. Land use efficiently is available to evaluate the advantages of intercrop in sustainable agriculture to meet food demand due to increase in population. Amount of N2 fixed by intercropped legume is less compared to mono crop legume due to competition with cereal. However, proportion of total N derived from fixation (Ndfa %) in legume intercropped with cereal was greater than mono crop legume. N-transfer from the legume to neighbouring plant may be possible, but it can be affected by a lot of factors. The principal aim of present study is to define advantages of cereal-grain legume intercrops in sustainable agriculture.
