“New Life” into Old Sounds
Authors: Shuvera Ryan
Published: August 2020

Simone Schmidt is a folk and country musician based in tkaronto (Mohawk word from which Toronto, Ontario, is derived). Schmidt's 2017 album Audible Songs from Rockwood is part of their solo work as Fiver and part of an attempt to write “new life into and around folk, country, and rock songs.” The album is based on their time spent at the Archives of Ontario reading the original case files of the Rockwood Asylum for the Criminally Insane that operated in Kingston, Ontario, from 1856 to 1881. The songs are sung from the imagined perspectives of different women imprisoned at Rockwood. I read and engage with Schmidt's work as a performance of unsettling. Unsettlement comes through on this album in direct ways, such as Schmidt's challenges to ideas of land possession and challenges to the bases of the medical and psychiatric designations. More subtle challenges come through the portrayals of the women, which, though largely imagined, come from a place of self-reflexivity. In this paper I will examine how Schmidt uses the sounds of traditional North American folk and country music as a sonic bed for a performance of unsettling on Audible Songs from Rockwood.
The Valley of the Dry Bones

This article explores Jewish contributions to, and influence on, the country music and bluegrass genres, arguing that there have been four key phases of Jewish-country interaction and that in recent years country and bluegrass Jews have taken a largely religious and liturgical turn as singer-songwriters in these genres. The first sections of this article identify several important stages of interaction, beginning with a phase between the 1940s and 1960s when Jews challenged antisemitism and sought assimilation and acceptance, a period in the 1970s when iconoclasts such as Kinky Friedman and Shel Silverstein came to the fore and substantially reshaped country music, and a phase from the 1980s to early 2000s when an instrumental-focused klezmer-bluegrass fusionism was central to constructing a Jewish-country identity. A longer, final section explores the more recent, religiously-themed country and bluegrass of performers such as Mare Winningham, Nefesh Mountain, and Joe Buchanan, and argues that Jewish country and bluegrass has taken an important liturgical turn.
“Penned Against the Wall”
Authors: Enriquez Sophia M.
Published: August 2020

Although the Appalachian region has long been associated with white racial identity, Latinx people remain the region's largest and fastest-growing minority. What perspectives and experiences are revealed when such narratives of whiteness are challenged by the visibility of Latinx migrants? What does music tell us about ongoing discourses of migration and border-crossings? This essay analyzes Latinx immigration narratives in Appalachian music and offers the possibility of a Latinx-Appalachian musical and cultural resonances.

I take up the music of artists who claim hybrid Latinx-Appalachian cultural and musical identities. Namely, this essay focuses on Che Apalache—a four-piece band based in Buenos Aires that plays “Latingrass”—and the Lua Project—a five-piece band based in Charlottesville, Virginia, that plays “Mexilachian” music. Using field recordings and ethnographic interviews with both groups, this essay analyzes references to U.S.-Mexico border politics, acts of border crossing, and Latin American-Appalachian geographic similarities. I engage U.S.-based Latinx studies and Appalachian studies to establish relationships of Appalachian and Latinx cultures and incorporate analyses of both Spanish and English lyrics. Ultimately, this essay suggests that listening for Latinx migration narratives in Appalachian music challenges assumptions of belonging in the shifting U.S. cultural landscape.
Yoga’s Entry Into American Popular Music Is Racialized (1941–67)
Authors: Singh Roopa Bala
Published: August 2020

This study unearths 20th-century U.S. music histories to demonstrate that racism accompanied the entry of yoga into American “belonging” and domestication, while “Indians” were excluded. There are three yoga song sites in this study; each presents a composite of racial constructions that utilize Othering tropes long deployed to affirm White supremacy and legitimize colonial power. I analyze the sound world, lyrics, and films of (1) the 1941 popular song “The Yogi Who Lost His Will Power,” by Orrin Tucker and His Orchestra; (2) the 1960 chart-topper “Yogi,” which catapulted the Ivy Three to one-hit-wonder status; and, (3) the 1967 Elvis Presley song “Yoga Is as Yoga Does, ” from the movie Easy Come, Easy Go. Questions that guide this study include: How does racist displacement appear in historic contexts of sonic productions and U.S. proliferation in yoga? What racial stereotypes accompanied yoga’s entry into American cultural discourse? I argue the evidence supports three key findings: (1) yoga’s movement into American popular culture is inextricably tied to racism and Othering; (2) widely circulating stereotypes of Indians, yoga, and yogis in American popular music include classic racist tropes, such as the grinning Sambo, and (3) the logic of elimination operates to hide U.S. music histories of racialized yoga. I conclude that U.S. yoga and its musical and cultural productions, branded as peaceful and flexible, camouflage the settler nation and White supremacy. The article concludes with a forecast for the importance of music studies to the nascent field of critical yoga studies.
Wages for Soundwork
Authors: Hudelson Joshua
Published: August 2020

Over the past decade, ASMR (Autonomous Sensory Meridian Response) has emerged from whisper-quiet corners of the Internet to become a bullhorn of speculation on the human sensorium. Many consider its sonically induced “tingling” to be an entirely novel, and potentially revolutionary, form of human corporeality—one surprisingly effective in combating the maladies of a digitally networked life: insomnia, anxiety, panic attacks, and depression. Complicating these claims, this article argues that ASMR is also neoliberal repackaging of what Marx called the reproduction of labor power. Units of these restorative “tingles” are exchanged for micro-units of attention, which YouTube converts to actual currency based on per-1,000-view equations. True to the claims of Silvia Federici and Leopoldina Fortunati, this reproductive labor remains largely the domain of women. From sweet-voiced receptionists to fawning sales clerks (both of whom are regularly role-played by ASMRtists), sonic labor has long been a force in greasing the gears of capital. That it plays a role in production is a matter that ASMRtists are often at pains to obscure. The second half of this article performs a close reading of what might be considered the very first ASMR film: Chantal Akerman’s Jeanne Dielman, 23 quai du Commerce, 1080 Bruxelles. Through this film, the exploitative dimensions of ASMR can be contrasted with its potential for creating protected spaces of financial independence and nonnormative corporeal practices.

Chronic inflammation is involved in the genitourinary syndrome of menopause (GSM) and beneficial effects of androgens in the vagina have been described. We investigated the potential involvement of human vagina smooth muscle cells (hvSMCs) in the inflammatory response and the immunomodulatory effect of androgen receptor (AR) agonist dihydrotestosterone (DHT). HvSMCs isolated from menopausal women were evaluated for sex steroids receptors and toll-like receptors mRNA expression, and left untreated or treated in vitro with lipopolysaccharide (LPS) or IFNγ, in the presence or absence of DHT. We evaluated mRNA expression (by RT-PCR) and secretion in cell culture supernatants (by a bead-based immunoassay) of pro-inflammatory markers. Nuclear translocation of NF-κB (by immunofluorescence) and cell surface HLA-DR expression (by flow cytometry) were also evaluated. Similar experiments were repeated in rat vSMCs (rvSMCs). In hvSMCs and rvSMCs, AR was highly expressed. DHT pre-treatment inhibited LPS-induced mRNA expression of several pro-inflammatory mediators (i.e. COX2, IL-6, IL-12A and IFNγ), effect significantly blunted by AR antagonist bicalutamide. DHT significantly counteracted the secretion of IL-1RA, IL-2, IL-5, IL-15, FGF, VEGF and TNFα. LPS-induced NF-κB nuclear translocation was significantly inhibited by DHT, an effect counteracted by bicalutamide. DHT pre-treatment significantly decreased IFNγ-induced expression of HLA-DR, mRNA expression of iNOS, COX2 and MCP1, and secretion of IL-1, IL-2, IL-5, IL-6, MCP1 and GCSF. Similar effects were observed in rvSMCs. The activation of AR suppresses the inflammatory response in hvSMCs, reducing their potential to be involved in the initiation and maintaining of inflammation, thus representing a therapeutic strategy in conditions, such as the GSM.
Treatments of Gibberellic Acid for Vegetative Growth, Tuber Yield and Quality of Potato (Solanum tuberosum L.) in the Central Highlands of Ethiopia
Authors: Abebe C. Degebasa
Published: August 2020

The productivity of potato is low owing to a number of constraints including poor sprouting due to dormancy, which leads to delayed planting and poor crop emergence and vigor. The study was conducted during 2008-2009 with the objectives to determine the effects of different methods and rates of gibberellic acid (GA3) application on dormancy attributes, tuber yield and quality of potato, and its subsequent generation of Gera cultivar. Five levels of GA3 (0, 250,500,750 and 1000 ppm), as haulm application a week prior to haulm destruction, and five levels of GA3 (10, 20, 30, 40 and 50 ppm), as dipping treatments immediately after harvest for 24hrs, were used as treatments. The treatments were arranged in randomized completed block design with three replications both for planting and storage. The result showed that GA3 application affected dormancy period, tuber yield and quality. Haulm applications of GA3 increased marketable tuber and tuber yield per hill as compared to untreated tubers. Moreover, haulm application of GA3 increased dry matter content as compared to the control, while the increment in the dry matter content was also observed in response to dipping the seed tuber. In the same manner, dipping seed tubers in GA3 solution increased tuber specific gravity of the next generation as compared to the control. Therefore, significant increase in tuber number and weight due to GA3 application contributed to the increase of total tuber yield. Both haulm application and dipping treatments of GA3 at higher rates resulted in high total, marketable tuber yield along with significant dry matter content and tuber specific gravity, which help the producers to boost their produce.

Desbridamiento apropiado y técnica de "pie crusting" en el manejo de herida traumática
Authors: Beraún Coronel Luis Angel , Becerra Orrego Manuel Oswaldo , Quispe Juárez José Groverli
Published: August 2020

Las heridas crónicas de origen traumático, con exposición de tejidos, requieren de un desbridamiento adecuado, lavado y una pronta cubierta para evitar la infección y la desecación. A veces, incluso deben ser ampliadas para realizar un adecuado desbridamiento quirúrgico; por lo que, al intentar una cobertura completa, el resultado es una herida a tensión, que se complica con inflamación, infección y la dehiscencia que se acentúa aún más si está en una zona de flexión, como la rodilla. Se presenta el caso de una paciente de 28 años, que acudió a emergencias con un antecedente de herida traumática en la rodilla derecha, signos de retraso de la cicatrización, tejido de granulación friable, exposición de la rótula, abundante secreción serosa y dolor al movimiento con rango limitado. Se la trató en un solo tiempo quirúrgico con desbridamiento, irrigación y cobertura completa de la herida mediante la técnica de “pie-crusting”.

¿Hámsteres en la rueda? Aceleración y cuarta revolución industrial
Authors: Arocena Felipe , Sansone Sebastián
Published: August 2020

La cuarta revolución industrial comienza a caracterizarse a través del desarrollo de la inteligencia artificial, la edición genética, la nanotecnología y las interfaces entre lo biológico, lo inorgánico, lo social y lo digital. Hay autores que ven en ella potencialmente una panacea que ha de traer un mundo de post-escasez , llegando a la propia superación evolutiva de la especie humana en el reino de lo trans-humano. Otros, plantean con enorme preocupación la posibilidad de temibles escenarios distópicos, y de un inminente “riesgo existencial”, aun mayor que el de las armas nucleares. Entre estos dos extremos, existen dentro de este nuevo debate tecno-filosófico posturas que consideran inverosímil tanto la realización de la utopía como la caída en la distopía, y proponen una visión protópica, que convoca a la comprensión y aceptación de los aspectos inevitables de la transición en curso, y al aprovechamiento proactivo de sus posibilidades, como manera de preservar y fortalecer la vigencia de la identidad y la libertad humanas. En los primeros dos apartado de este trabajo se contextualiza el momento actual de la tecnología y su capacidad transformativa en las sociedades en lo que se ha denominado la cuarta revolución industrial. En el tercer apartado se profundiza teóricamente sobre la aceleración, concepto definitorio para Harmut Rosa de “la modernidad tardía”. Finalmente, el trabajo se cierra colocando una pregunta fundamental que lo inspira: ¿qué posibilidades tenemos de orientar la innovación tecnológica para evitar daños imprevisibles?
The identity/alterity nexus in international relations: two cases of encounter with difference
Authors: Resende Erica
Published: August 2020

The aim of this article is to survey the implications of the identity/alterity nexus in international relations (IR) as related to processes of othering for understanding conflict and violence in global politics. I will offer what I could call an ontology of difference in global politics, where I stress the reliance of understanding othering practices in global politics, as I explore two cases from which I ask the following questions: How do identity and identity formation processes occur and develop at different levels, times and dimensions? How do discourses of differentiation and identification help construct state identities and interests? Following Emmanuel Lévinas, I will argue that by seeking ways to reach out towards the Other, we free ourselves from the restraints of selfishness, from indifference and isolation. Finding and coming to terms with a composition of the Self that also includes the Other enables us to take responsibility for him/her inasmuch it prevents the conditions for violence and conflict.

Historical analysis of agricultural development and use of the territory of Mordovia (from the Neolithic to the present day)
Authors: Kaverin Alexandr V. , Kaverina Nadezhda A. , Masserov Dmitry A. , Ushakov Ilya S. , Yanina Darya A.
Published: August 2020

Introduction. From an environmental point of view, the article considers the appearance of agriculture and its development on the territory of Mordovia.
Materials and Methods. The authors, focusing on a historical analysis of the processes of agricultural development and use of landscapes on the territory of Mordovia, came to the conclusion that lack of knowledge how to transform nature in the development process can lead to serious economic and environmental miscalculations, negatively affects the most important natural properties of socio-ecological systems, and above all, their productivity. A graphic model of the equilibrium state of the ecosystems of the natural-territorial complex of Mordovia was developed for the purpose of detailed consideration of the issue by N. F. Reimers’ method.
Results and Discussion. Agricultural activities on the territory of the Republic of Mordovia, as well as in other regions of the Finno-Ugric peoples’ residence, have become the main cause of the disturbance of the ecological balance, its impact on soil, atmosphere, water, energy and biotic components of natural systems. It caused deep and large-scale processes of degradation of the natural environment. The destruction of natural vegetation, primarily woody vegetation, has had a great impact on the water balance: due to deforestation and plowing of land, erosion processes have sharply increased and droughts have become more frequent. The authors prove the predominant role of forest landscapes in the restoration and preservation of the region’s ethnoecosystem.
Conclusion. The historical analysis made it possible to conclude that the history of agricultural development of the territory of Mordovia, as well as other Finno-Ugric regions of Russia, can be called the history of deforestation. All this raises with new force questions about the return to the Finno-Ugric regions of their natural forests and the intensification of scientific research in the field of optimal forest cover.
Fin del expresionismo no-figurativo costarricense con Ola creciente (1967) de Rafael Ángel Felo García Picado (1928- )
Authors: Montero Rodríguez Daniel
Published: August 2020

El presente artículo consiste en un estudio del proceso de finalización de la pintura no-figurativo en la plástica costarricense, a través de la obra Ola creciente (1967) de Rafael Ángel Felo García, como un acercamiento a la pintura costarricense de la década de los setenta del siglo XX. Metodológicamente, se recurre al análisis semiótico del texto artístico, esto para interpretar el signo de manera gradual, a través de los tres niveles del signo (sintáctico, semántico y pragmático). Además, se conceptualizan las nociones de “expresionismo” y de “arte abstracto” como acercamiento teórico. Por otra parte, se refiere a la I Bienal Centroamericana de Pintura (1971) como contexto socio-histórico costarricense. Esto permite observar cómo el veredicto de dicho certamen tuvo influencia directa en el proceso de conclusión del arte no-figurativo costarricense, al tiempo que devela referencialidades no antes vistas, u obviadas por la crítica, en Ola creciente de este pintor costarricense.

Explanatory Factor analysis to determining the risk factors of cardiovascular disease
Authors: Mohammed Ebtehag Mustafa
Published: August 2020

Introduction: Cardiovascular disease is one of the most preventable causes of death in the world since the majority of its risk factors are preventable or controllable.

The aim: this study was conducted to determine risk factors for cardiovascular disease among patients admitted to wad Medani heart Centre, wad Medani, Sudan.

Materials and methods: A hospital-based case-control study was conducted and carried out in Gezira state (wad Medani heart Centre), Data collection lasted for almost one year (From 2018 to 2019), via structured face-to-face interviews of 800 respondents in wad Medani heart hospital. cross tabs and chi-squared tests were utilized to analyze the association between the dependent and independent variables, factor analysis is used to profile the most effective socioeconomic factors of cardiovascular disease, all the significant values were set up at p<0.05, several risk factors for cardiovascular disease were measured on 750 patients with and 50 patients without this disease. Next, factor analysis was performed to identify underlying variables, or factors, that explain the pattern of correlations within a set of observed risk factors. To obtain more accurate results, the factor analysis was performed for each of the survey axes separately. The limiting Eigenvalue is taken as 0.1 

Results: the result of factor analysis revealed several variables as risk factors for cardiovascular disease, the most important of them is locality, age, Renal disease, smoking, passive smoking, drinking alcoholic, operated heart injury and using oil cooking.

Conclusion: older individuals who practice habitual and behavioural such as smoking, drinking alcoholic, eating oil cooking and not dealing with chronic disease as well are more likely to develop cardiovascular disease.

History of cataract surgery from ancient times to today
Authors: Nagy Z. Z.
Published: August 2020

Cataract surgery is the most frequently performed ophthalmic surgery worldwide. This year approximately 32 million surgeries will be performed. The journey to modern, quick, and safe cataract surgery has been quite long. This review covers topics from ancient couching to the most modern phacoemulsification and femtosecond laser-assisted cataract surgery. The gain in quality of life is the largest with cataract surgery compared to other implant surgeries (e.g. knee, hip replacement, etc.). Ophthalmology has made huge advancements in recent decades. New microsurgical tools and diagnostic equipment have been developed, together with new surgical methods and foldable intraocular lenses, made from biocompatible material. From monofocal lenses, through aspheric, toric, and multifocal lenses, to multifocal toric lenses, today almost all kinds of refractive error can be compensated, including presbyopia. Teamwork, precise preoperative assessment, and fine surgical technique should also be emphasized in order to achieve the best and most predictable postoperative results for both patient and surgeon.

Published: August 2020

The Manunggaling Kawula lan Gusti concept was found in Serat Nawa Ruci in the Middle Ages of Java in the 16th Century AD and was re-transformed into the New Javanese era in Dewa Ruci Fiber, Cabolek Fiber, Malaya Syeh Fiber until the 20th century AD in Fiber Sastra Jendra (Literature Aji Endra) which is still used today. Over five centuries, the concept experienced distortion of meaning far from the purpose and purpose of its writing. This study was analyzed using the theoretical basis of the R. G. Collingwood Historical Philosophy aimed to find out the development of Sufism in Java, the transformation of the spread of the concept in several Islamic Javanese texts derived from the Nawa Ruci Fiber, and its interpretation in the Fiber of Jendra's Literature. using historical research methods with heuristic steps, criticism, interpretation, and historiography. The manuscripts used obtained from utilizing manuscripts as a result of philological research or translation that have never been studied by others. This research found that in Indonesia, Sufi propagators of Islam in Java preached by combining local traditions with Islam, which led to the birth of Javanese Sufism.
SEMANTIC STUDY OF AL-HARB WORDS IN THE QUR'AN ACCORDING TO THE AZ-ZUHAILI WAHBAH
Authors: Syahida Ahmad Ridla
Published: August 2020

This research is a semantic study that aims to uncover the underlying meanings and relational meanings of the word al-qitāl and al-harb contained in the Koran. Lafadz al-qitāl and its derivation are repeated 65 times, while the phrase al-harb and their origin are only repeated nine times. With this semantic approach to the word, it is expected to be able to provide a deeper understanding and provide a world view of the Koran. This study also aims to find out how the sources, methods, and interpretations of Wahbah Az-Zuhaili are interpreted in Al-Munir so that they can find out and explore the various characteristics of their understanding of the words al-qital and al-harb in that interpretation. The method used in this research is a descriptive-analysis method to describe and analyze data. The type of data used in this study is qualitative. In contrast, the primary data source used in this study is Al-Munir's interpretation supported by other sources relevant to the object of this study. The results of this study indicate that in terms of the origin of understanding Wahbah Az-Zuhaili tries to combine the interpretation of bil ma'tsur and the interpretation of bil ma'qul (ar-ra'yi), with the style of language and contemporary approaches Wahbah Az-Zuhaili works to present a solutive analysis and under the conditions of the times.

Design of Multiband Microstrip Antenna Using Two Parasitic Ring Resonators for WLAN/WiMAX and C/X/Ku-Band Applications
Authors: Boutejdar Ahmed , Halim Bishoy I.
Published: August 2020

In this paper, a new planar monopole antenna for multiband applications is proposed. The antenna structure operates at five operating frequencies at 2.88 GHz, 7.58 GHz, 9.88 GHz, 11.59 GHz and 13.78 GHz which covers different communication frequency ranges. The proposed antenna consists
of a quasi-modified rectangular radiating patch with a partial ground plane and two parasitic elements (open-loop-ring resonators) to serve as coupling-bridges. A stepped cut at lower corners of the radiating patch and the partial ground plane are used, to achieve the multiband features. The
proposed antenna is manufactured on the Rogers RO 3010 substrate and is simulated and optimized using High Frequency Simulation System (HFSS). The antenna topology possesses an area of 41.04 x 29.98 x 1.6 mm3. The measured results demonstrate that, the candidate antenna has impedance
bandwidths for -10 dB return loss and operates from 2.68 – 3.03 GHz, 7.33 – 7.84 GHz, from 9.66 – 10.03 GHz, from 11.46 – 11.78 GHz and from 13.69 – 13.88 which meet the requirements of the wireless local area network (WLAN), worldwide interoperability for microwave
access (WiMAX), C- (Uplink), X- (Uplink) band and Ku- (Uplink) band applications. Acceptable agreement is obtained between measurement and simulation results. Experimental results show that the antenna is successfully simulated and measured, and the tri-band antenna can be achieved by adjusting
the lengths of the three elements and gives good gains across all the operation bands.

Published: August 2020

The thermal and mechanical properties of bricks are strongly dependent on both the chemical composition and the microstructural features of the used fired clay material. Focussing on the latter, we here identify, in terms of volume fraction, shape, and orientation characteristics, one-to-several micrometer-sized subdomains (“material phases”) within the SEM-imaged microstructure of two raw clays fired at 880 and 1100 centigrades: (1) quartz grains, (2) muscovite, (3) Fe–Mg mica, (4) feldspar grains, (5) decarbonated dolomite, (6) pores, or (7) binding matrix. This identification rests on the simultaneous use of Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM) and Energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDX), with correspondingly obtained data entering statistical analyses based on the Otsu algorithm, and complemented by minimum grain size and grain shape requirements, as well as by logical exclusion criteria. Crystalline and amorphous phase shares were additionally confirmed by X-ray powder diffraction measurements (PXRD). As for the investigated clays, an increased firing temperature results in dehydroxylation of muscovite, and in a reduced appearance of feldspar grains.
