This research is library research that uses qualitative descriptive methods. This study reviewed Muhammad Abduh and Muhammad Syarhrur thought. Both of them contemporary scholars whose work is well known to the world. The Researcher is interest in studying the thinking of their both about polygamy because there are significant has similarities and differences from the perspective in interpreting polygamy verses in the Qur'an, surah An-Nisa verses 3 and 129. Both of them have different conditions when it comes to polygamy. Abduh banned polygamy on the grounds of justice and Syahrur vowed in terms of quality. But in terms of quantity there is no difference between them. The result of this study showed that Muhammad Abduh allowed polygamy by using conditions in an emergency. The conditions that allow among the first wife there are indications of barrenness, no doubt in doing justice, or no fear of a dispute after marriage. Abduh did not think too much in terms of the quality of the wife who would be polygamy. While Syahrur allows polygamy with qualification conditions in terms of quality where the status of widows of wives who have children applies to the second, third or fourth wives. There is no difference between the two in terms of quantity.

ISLAMISASI ILMU PENGETAHUAN AL-ATTAS MENJAWAB PROBLEMATIKA SEKULARISME TERHADAP ILMU PENGETAHUAN
Authors: Sahidin Amir
Published: July 2022

Secularism is a thought born of Western perspectives and experiences, which has had a negative impact on contemporary science. The bad impact is based on the conception of secularism itself, in the form of disenchantment of nature, or the emptying of the universe from religious and spiritual values; desacralization of politics or political exclusion from religious and spiritual elements; also deconsecration of false or relativizing human values, so that there are no absolutes in a truth. For this reason, Syed Naquib al-Attas sees the need for the Islamization of knowledge to answer the problem of secularism. Through a library research type study with a descriptive-analytical approach, it can be concluded that al-Attas' Islamization of knowledge answers the problem of secularism in science with three things. First, it frees people from the ideology and perspective of secularism. Second, dewesternization or separating important concepts and elements that make up Western civilization and culture. Third, integration or incorporating important concepts and elements of Islam into science that has been sterilized from important Western concepts and elements. These three things are an attempt to answer the problems of secularism in science.

The paper presents the legal provisions, the views of jurisprudence, as the opinion of the legal science, about the validity of the currency clause in the loan agreements. It is explained that the foreign currency clause is a foreign currency obligation of the borrower. The paper analyzes the uneven practice of domestic courts. Particular attention was paid to the Legal Interpretation of the Civil Department of the Supreme Court of Cassation on the validity of a foreign currency clause in a loan agreement in Swiss francs and a conversion of debt into the euro. It was pointed out the legal consequences of the nullity of this contractual provision. The ineffectiveness of the essential provision of the contract leads to a violation of the principle in favorem contractus. The author considers that the conversion according to the exchange rate that was valid at the time of the conclusion of the contract is a measure with a retroactive effect, which is contrary to the principle of legal certainty.

Published: July 2022

Este artigo analisa a transição democrática brasileira (1974 a 1985), com o objetivo de demonstrar que esse processo se deu de forma contingente, menos na dependência da vontade dos atores do que da interação destes com outros com interesses próprios, em jogos mediados por instituições cambiantes — ou seja, os “jogos de transição contingente”.  Com a teoria da escolha racional e os instrumentos da teoria dos jogos, investigo ser a denominação “contingente” adequada para sustentar a hipótese de que evolução incremental das instituições do anunciado processo transicional deu-se condicionada à aleatoriedade de resultados não intencionais procedentes de escolhas intencionais. Os resultados esperados desta investigação, os efeitos sobre o comportamento dos atores no curto, médio e longo prazo, seguem sintetizados nos temas-títulos dos quatro capítulos: esquemas dos jogos da transição democrática brasileira; a convergência e os limites da cooperação mútua; as metáforas da transição democrática ou jogos de um lance aos jogos repetitivos e; ao final, as conclusões onde evidenciamos a precariedade de algumas dimensões do compósito político institucional brasileiro em vigor.
NARRATOR OF UNSHOWED ART
Authors: ERCAN Aşkın
Published: July 2022

While the 20th century avant-garde criticizes the sanctification of productivity in art, it also reopens the boundaries between the work-gallery, artist-audience with the revolution it created in the art object. Art, which has settled into a provocative attitude with the historical avant-garde, opposes all accepted methods. The practice of making art from ready-made objects, which started with Dada, turned into a process-based idea of art without a work, in the public area, in life, through the body, after the 1960s. Thus, artists approaching commodified art with a critical attitude argue that art is possible without producing an art object to be consumed. The world of show directly shapes the images and objects of art dominated by modern production conditions. In this context, the art placed in the white cube opens a new field for the gallery understanding that shows matter and commodity with the influence of the avant-garde. Yves Klein's 'Void' exhibition and Fernandez Arman's 'Fullness' exhibition can be given as examples. This research presents a critical approach to the occupation of the commodity in social life in the world of the show and includes a historical perspective towards the undisplayed art, which criticizes the idea of the finished work. This research, which was prepared by scanning the literature, opens the art understanding of commodified art, which is based on not showing, to discussion with artist productions.

Published: July 2022

The Internet has become a natural communication platform for modern society. Web archives, which began in the 1990s to capture and preserve changing web content, have thus become key sources for research in the recent past. The analysis of their data is complicated by, for example, insufficient competencies of researchers, the need for computing resources or legislation. One way to meet the needs of users is to develop tools and research interfaces that allow to work with data without the need for technological knowledge of advanced extraction and thus open it to researchers. The study addresses the issue of access to archival web data, approaches efforts to formulate a theoretical and methodological framework and proposes a design for access and further data processing, which is applied in a unique research interface for extracting large data from web archives using advanced machine learning to generate and categorization of text outputs.

This is a case study of In re Pareteum Securities Litigation, a federal class action lawsuit filed in New York City on February 26, 2020. The plaintiffs consist of the group of stockholders who purchased Pareteum Corporation’s (Pareteum) stock during the period of December 14, 2017 through October 21, 2019. During this period, Pareteum significantly overstated its revenue but Pareteum’s auditor, Squar Milner (auditor), issued unqualified opinions on Pareteum’s financial statements. The defendants are: Pareteum Corporation, several of Pareteum’s top managers, and Pareteum’s auditor. The case is ongoing and a final judgment has not been entered in this litigation. After the case was filed, the defendants filed motions to dismiss. The court denied the motions to dismiss the case, and the court meticulously explained why the defendants’ motions were denied. The specific issues addressed include: (a) the elements of several types of securities fraud pursuant to the Securities Act of 1933 and the Securities Exchange Act of 1934; (b) the heightened pleading standards for securities fraud claims created by the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act; (c) in a Securities Act claim against an auditor, whether scienter is required to be proven; (d) whether an auditor’s opinion may be construed as a guarantee; (e) whether an auditor’s unqualified opinion of the fairness of the financial statements, coupled with the subsequent discovery of fraud, may be actionable against the auditor; (f) the inconsistency of an auditor’s issuance of an unqualified opinion on financial statements while simultaneously issuing an adverse opinion on internal control; (g) the auditor’s duty to adhere to Auditing Standard 4101, which mandates an auditor to carry out subsequent event procedures; and (h) implications for auditors emanating from this case.
Techno-Economic Feasibility of Applying Sugarcane Waxbased Phase Change Material to Lower Photovoltaic Panel Temperature
Authors:   Department of Chemical Engineering, Center of Clinical Engineering, School of Engineering, Thammasat University Pathum Thani, Thailand 12120, Puengpan Apinya
Published: July 2022

A reduction in power output from a solar photovoltaic (PV) panel is caused by a high operating temperature resulting mitigating economic benefits. Therefore, phase change material (PCM) situated in the back of a solar panel is used to maintain the surface temperature of the panel close to ambient. This research aimed to improve solar power generation efficiency by selecting a suitable thickness of encapsulated phase change material (EPCM) based on energy efficiency and economic analysis. At the increase of the EPCM layer thickness from 4 mm to 7 mm, the maximum power generation efficiency was improved by 15.86% owing to the EPCM heat storage capacity. The efficiency of solar panels-7 mm layer EPCM module was 6% higher than the PVs without EPCM. Adding an EPCM on the back of a solar panel lasted 16 days under natural conditions. However, a net present value (NPV) over a 25-year project of solar systems with a 7 mm thick EPCM layer is negative while that of solar systems without EPCM is more profitable than that of solar systems with a 4 mm thick EPCM layer. Applying sensitivity analysis to NPV of PV-EPCM modules was studied under changes in material cost of EPCM and power feed-in tariff. The result of sensitivity analysis of PV-7 mm thick EPCM layer shows 40% reduction in material cost of EPCM or 50% increase of energy price contributes to positive profitability.

Published: July 2022

The person who brings Buddhism into the world must have the qualities to learn and practice the Buddha's Dharma. The material of Buddha's dharma/ or quality of Buddha's dharma is to help sentient beings return to live with their inherent awareness or the nature of awareness and Buddha-nature. This awareness and Buddha nature in the Avatamsaka Sutra is called "the wisdom of the Tathagata." The Lotus Sutra (Suddharma-Pundarika Sutra) is "knowledge of the Buddha." In the Shurangama Sutra, it is the true mind. Zen Buddhism calls it "the original face or Buddha-nature." Phenomenologically, dharmas in the world are governed by the law of impermanence: birth, old age, illness, death, birth and death, and samsara, but in essence, the "true face – original face" of the human being hidden behind the birth and death person is a person with whole nature: permanence, happiness, ego, and purity. A person's abilities when he realizes his enlightenment and Buddha nature are also the core qualities of a person who wants to bring Buddhism into the world to transform his life.

Skin toxicity, or folliculitis, is the most common adverse side effect resulting from the use of antineoplastic signal transduction inhibitors like the epidermal growth factor receptor inhibitors (EGFRI) panitumumab and poziotinib. This condition takes a toll on a patient’s quality of life and can affect up to 90% of patients. Moreover, it is one of the primary contributing factors to the patient’s decision to discontinue antineoplastic therapy, thus highlighting the need for better dermatologic interventions to help mitigate the side effects resulting from EGFRI treatment. We present the case of a 76-year-old female patient who presented with a sudden, severe folliculitis exclusively affecting her scalp following years of stable tumor suppressor therapy

On Finding Determinantal Equations Involving the Coordinates of the Object Point, Point of Incidence, Point of Observation and the Image Point in Cases of Reflection and Refraction
Authors:   Retired Principal, Kabi Nazrul Mahavidyalaya Sonamura, Tripura 799131, India, Bhattacharjee Pramode Ranjan
Published: July 2022

This paper is concerned with the procedure of finding determinantal equations, each of which involves the coordinates of the object point, point of incidence, point of observation, and the image point in cases of reflection and refraction of light. An algorithm has been presented for the said purpose and it has been subsequently employed for the generation of relevant determinantal equations by considering some particular cases of reflection and refraction, based on which the readers will be able to reach the desired goal for all other remaining cases of reflection and refraction. Overall, two sets of such determinantal equations have been found to prevail in the present study. One resulted from handling the following cases: (i) Reflection at a plane reflecting surface, (ii) Refraction at a plane surface of discontinuity regardless of whether light moves from a rarer medium to a denser medium or from a denser medium to a rarer medium. The second one has been found while going through the following cases: (i) Reflection at a concave spherical reflecting surface, (ii) Reflection at a convex spherical reflecting surface, (iii) Refraction at a concave spherical surface of discontinuity regardless of whether light passes from a rarer medium to a denser medium or from a denser medium to a rarer medium, (iv) Refraction at a convex spherical surface of discontinuity regardless of whether light moves from a rarer medium to a denser medium or from a denser medium to a rarer medium
Sustainable Economic Development Routes in Sub-Sahara Africa: A Dynamic Long-Run Relationship Analysis of Fiscal Policy, Energy Consumption and Carbon Dioxide Emissions
Authors: Ansah Stephen , Xungang Zheng , Ntim-Amo Gideon
Published: July 2022

Purpose: This study investigates the relationship between fiscal policy, energy consumption, and carbon dioxide emissions in the sub-Saharan African region.
Approach/Methodology/Design: The cross-sectional autoregressive distributed lag, common correlated effect means group, and the augmented mean group were used to analyze the long-run effect of fiscal policy, and energy consumption on carbon dioxide emissions for the period 1990–2018.
Findings: The findings of this study indicate that expansionary fiscal policy drives carbon dioxide emissions, while contractionary fiscal policy mitigates carbon dioxide emissions for the sub-Sahara African region. The study's findings also indicate that an increase in renewable energy consumption help reduce carbon dioxide emissions, while non-renewable energy consumption causes carbon emissions to rise. Similar results were obtained for the various income-based economies except upper-middle-income economies that recorded insignificant long-run effect of fiscal policy, renewable energy and non-renewable energy consumption on carbon emissions.
Practical Implications: The significant role of expansionary and contractionary fiscal policies established from this study’s results indicate the possibility of economic managers of various nations to promote sustainable development through fiscal policy implementations. Thus, governments of various economies could use fiscal policy especially expenditure as a tool to ensure sustainable development.
Originality/value: This study innovates by employing econometric tools that deal with the problem of cross-sectional dependence that may exist among the study variables. This study innovatively considers the income levels of the selected countries to ascertain the role of income levels in the dynamic relationships between fiscal policy and carbon emissions, which is novel in this area of study within the Sub-Saharan African region.

Imam Ali (Ali Ibn Abi Ṭalib), The Peak Personality Who Shaped Arabic Poetry with His Wise Words
Authors: Dayan Serdar , Daskan Adem
Published: July 2022

Imam Ali, the sultan of wise words, who had a good command of the Qur'an, hadiths, and poems of the period of ignorance (Jahiliyyah), used literary sentences even in his everyday conversations. He proved to be the pinnacle of literature by skillfully bringing together words in his poems with deep meanings. His poems were examined in Arab and Turkish sources to reveal the literary power of Imam Ali and the beauty of the used language. Studies on the literary aspect of Imam Ali in the Arabic field are more than the studies in the Turkish field. In the literature, much research was conducted about Imam Ali, but very few of these studies examined his literary language side. As he was the basis of Islamic sciences and the master of scholars who grew up in these fields, he occupied a great place in the literature of Muslim countries. We tried to make up for the lack of analysis of Imam Ali's literary language in this context. Imam Ali was a great person who needed to be examined in every aspect of literature. We tried to reveal his literary side, which was a guide for those who came after him.

Published: July 2022

Ponderosa pine (Pinus ponderosa) were planted in north central Kansas in 1968 as part of a program to identify suitable seed sources for the Eastern Great Plains. Fifteen-year survival and height were obtained and evaluated during 1983. Foliage color and retention data were obtained during 1986. Sources from north central Nebraska and southern South Dakota were best suited to the eastern Great Plains because of their superior height growth, foliage characteristics, and above average survival. The opportunity now exists to select seed from native stands to improve upon the poor performance often exhibited by plantings of ponderosa pine in the region.

Suitability of Elm Firewood to Bark Beetle Attack Stored Under Polyethylene Sheeting
Authors: Svihra Pavel
Published: July 2022

Six mil clear polyethylene sheeting, resistant to ultraviolet rays, was used as a seal to prevent the colonization of elm firewood by Scolytus multistrlatus, the vector of the Dutch elm disease fungus. In California, elm firewood sealed and aged under polyethylene sheeting for up to three months maintained a similar attractiveness to the bark beetle as did freshly cut firewood, after wood was exposed. When wood was aged for four to six months under sheeting and then exposed, the beetles, not only delayed their attacks but also colonized fewer bolts, and in lower densities, than on freshly cut bolts. When firewood was sealed and aged for seven or more months under sheeting before exposure, it was no longer attractive to S. multistriatus.

Why Latin Names of Pathogens Change
Authors: Sinclair W.A.
Published: July 2022

Most changes in Latin names of pathogens result from research in systematic botany, microbiology, mycology, and nematology. Name changes are made according to, and often because of, international rules of nomenclature. New names for familiar organisms may be rejected on scientific or nomenclatural bases but should not be rejected merely because mastery of new names is inconvenient. A table of name changes proposed or adopted for tree pathogens is presented.

"The current stage of the socio-economic development of Kazakhstan is characterized by a significant aggravation of the problem of its sustainable development. New economic relations require the development and implementation of a state strategy for ensuring the sustainable development of the country’s regions. The study of this problem is an urgent need, since the material and spiritual well-being of present and future generations depends on a correct understanding of the essence of sustainable development, determining the optimal interaction of factors of socio-economic and natural-ecological development. However, the whole system of factors (production assets, labor force, investments, etc.), except for natural and environmental factors, develops within the framework of the socio-economic system, it is subject to the influence and regulation of society. At the same time, the influence of society on natural and environmental factors is limited by the laws of development of nature itself. This paper examines the social orientation of the development of the economy of regions, agricultural sectors, accompanied by the inclusion in the software development of additional components related to the development of social infrastructure. The author has studied a wide range of literary sources, in which, to a greater or lesser extent, the problems of developing a mechanism for regulating socio-economic development at the regional level were considered. The advantages of the article include a high theoretical level of research, a systematic analysis of the state of the problems under consideration and their theoretical generalization. "

Қазақстан Республикасы Ұлттық қоры активтерiнiң жай-күйiн, динамикасын және құрылымын талдау барысында, ҚР Ұлттық қорының активтері абсолюттік, салыстырмалы және тұрақты түрде төмендеп келе жатқанын, ҚР Ұлттық қорының қаражатын алу транферттер және ҚР ұлттық компанияларына облигациялық қарыз түрінде ұлғайғанын көрсетті. Сонымен қатар, ҚРҰҚ түсімдерінің көлемі мұнай өндіру көлемінің қысқаруына және мұнайдың әлемдік бағалары деңгейінің төмендеуіне байланысты төмендеді. ҚР Ұлттық қорының ресурстарын басқару тиімділігін талдау, активтер кірістілігінің жыл сайынғы төмендеуін көрсетеді. Бұл мақалада Қазақстан Республикасы Ұлттық қорының активтерін тиімді басқару мәселелері жүйеленген. Құрылымдық және институционалдық проблемалардың болуына қарамастан, бүгінгі таңда Қазақстанда айтарлықтай фискалдық буфер бар. Активтердің жай-күйі , кірістілік пайызының оннан бір бөлігін жоғалтумен, оларды басқару сапасының шамалы нашарлауы жүздеген миллион доллар алынбаған пайдаға немесе инвестициялық шығынға айналады. Ұзақ мерзімді кезеңде мұнай бағасы төмен болған жағдайда, Ұлттық қорды бұрынғы көлемде пайдалануды сақтау, активтерді одан әрі қысқартуға әкеп соғады, осыған байланысты белгіленген мәселелрді шешу талап етіледі.

Türkiye’de çağın gerekliliklerine uyumlu bireyler yetiştirmek amacıyla 2018 yılında derslerin öğretim programlarında bir takım değişikliğe gidilmiştir. Bu değişikliklerden birisi olarak görülen kök değerler daha önceki programın aksine sadece sosyal bilgiler dersi öğretim programında değil diğer derslerin öğretim programlarında da yer almıştır. Mevcut çalışmada sosyal bilgiler dersi öğretim programı temel alınarak oluşturulan ilkokul 4. sınıf, ortaokul ve imam hatip ortaokulu 5, 6 ve 7. sınıf sosyal bilgiler ders kitaplarındaki metinlerde kök değerlerin yer alma durumları incelenmiştir. Nitel araştırma yaklaşımına dayalı olarak planlanan çalışmada doküman incelemesine bağlı kalarak Milli Eğitim Bakanlığı ve Talim Terbiye Kurulu tarafından onaylanan dört sosyal bilgiler kitabından veriler elde edilmiştir. Elde edilen verilerin analizi betimsel analize uygun olarak gerçekleştirilmiştir. Analiz neticesinde incelenen sosyal bilgiler ders kitaplarındaki metinlerde bulunan kök değerlerin hem kök değerler ve sınıf seviyesi hem de sosyal bilgiler öğretim programında yer alan öğrenme alanları bağlamında dengeli bir dağılım gözetilmeden gelişigüzel yer aldığı saptanmıştır. Buradan hareketler sosyal bilgiler ders kitaplarındaki metinlerde yer alan kök değerlerin sınıf, öğrenme alanları ve kök değerler bağlamında dengeli bir dağılım gözetilerek yeni ders kitaplarının oluşturulması önerilebilir.

In the image downloading process, image processing method, data mining method, and computer scanning technique, feature removal is an important step. The process of extracting logical data from original data is known as feature extraction. However, many FE methods still struggle with the difficulty of extracting relevant features that can accurately capture the basic content of a piece of data or database. We provide a survey of existing methods of extracting features used in recent years in this work. Brightness, homogeneity, entropy, meaning, and strength were shown to be the most of the distinctive features that could be obtained when using global learning and development community features extraction method in the images in the study. In addition, it was found that the extraction methods are not specific to the application and can be used in a variety of situations.
