Linguistics Out of the Closet
Authors: Kibbey Tyler
Published: April 2021

In this paper, I develop a holistic framework for an anti-disciplinary project based in and encompassing the intellectual critiques of colonialism, imperialism, and racism within linguistics in addition to subsuming queer and trans programs of linguistic thought in queering the science of language. This anti-disciplinary project presents a defense of iconoclastic forms of knowledge production that explicitly reject a priori assumptions of the orthodox linguistic canon’s primacy as a body of knowledge and seeks to engage ulterior and auxiliary modes of language science. In rejecting the notion of linear scientific progression – the humanist notion of progress as forward-facing – this project furthermore seeks to move beyond simple critiques, apologetics, and hagiographies and work toward a true repositioning of the field and a productive reimagination of the discipline. To that end, I outline four anti-disciplinary concepts – hetero-cistoriography, transcriptivism, decentralization, and systamatic professionalism – which I argue are productive points of departure from the institution of discipline.
The Revival of Poetry Declamation in Contemporary China: The Case of Fenchunguan Poetry Group (Guangzhou)
Authors: Dreyzis Yulia A.
Published: April 2021

The paper presents a description of the contemporary practice of poetry declamation in one of the literary communities of Guangzhou, among the poets who associate themselves with the tradition of the informal Fenchunguan group. The members of the group are authors and performers of classical poetry. They take an active part in the movement for the revival of traditional declamatory practices which were widely popular until the first decades of the 20th century. Their example allows us to trace some features of the declamation (oral presentation) used to promote poetry in classical formats (written texts) and thereby expand our knowledge of the written-oral dichotomy functioning within the Chinese tradition. The paper details the genealogy of the Southern School of text presentation, related to Fenchunguan, and analyzes how authors and performers appeal to the traditional practice of verbalizing poetry to construct and maintain a distinct “southern” (Cantonese) identity. This practice is utilized to create a distinct subspace within the system of national and local literature: quite a significant contribution is made by the original performing techniques of the Southern School (truncation of duration at the beginning of beats; repetition of rhyming words at the ends of phrases that coincide with the end of a poetic line, with a transition to a different pitch; merging adjacent lines into one phonetic-melodic unit) and the deliberate use of a local lect (Cantonese). In the process of (re)discovering the declamatory phenomenon, it becomes loaded with new aesthetic, social, practical and personal meanings. Those who participate in its functioning, thus, contribute to the great come-back of the classical type poetry and the spontaneous nature of declamatory practice.
The Role of Confucius Institutes in Chinese Education in Russia (Based on the Example of Confucius Institute of the Humanitarian Institute, Novosibirsk State University)
Authors: Bi Xinhui , Azarenko Iuliia A.
Published: April 2021

With the increase of Sino-Russian cooperation in various fields, interest in Chinese is growing in Russia, which highlights the role of Confucius Institute to meet demand. Confucius Institute is a non-profit educational organization jointly established by China and other countries. Each of the 22 Confucius Institutes and classrooms in Russia present its distinctive feature and work hard in helping the Russian people learn Chinese, understand Chinese culture and enhance the humanist exchange between China and Russia. Chinese education is the most important task of the institutes.
Using Confucius Institute of Novosibirsk State University as an example, this paper introduces works done by the institute from three aspects. Firstly, it contributes to Chinese education in the university. Secondly, it meets local residents’ needs to learn Chinese. Thirdly, it broadens the scope of regional cooperation and trains local Chinese teachers. With the support of Xinjiang University in China, the Confucius Institute at Novosibirsk State University has cooperated with many higher and secondary education institutions in Russia to expand international cooperation in Chinese education. The effective work of Confucius Institute at Novosibirsk State University has proved that it has played an active role in Chinese education. Against the backdrop of the COVID-19 pandemic, all Confucius Institutes and classrooms in Russia have continued operating by taking advantage of online teaching and learning and explored the route of development characterized with “Internet + Chinese”. The authors believe that Confucius Institutes will keep on contributing to the Chinese education in Russia with the joint efforts of both parties.

The most important competition of the 21st century is that of talents. How to make higher education and the cultivation of talents contribute to the long-term national development agenda and the construction of a community of a shared future for mankind is a significant task and mission of higher education in China. The Belt and Road Initiative is one of the means to share the Chinese experiences, Chinese wisdom and bonus of reform and opening-up. Construction of the core area of the Silk Road Economic Belt and the implementation of the Open Up West Program call for talents to contribute to the regional development. It has brought both opportunities and challenges to foreign language education in universities and colleges in Xinjiang. The cultivation of talents in foreign language education must integrate into the scope of internationalization in national higher education and meet its expectations of talents by focusing on fostering character and civic virtue, maintaining and serving regional social stability and long-term security and pursuing development in the long run. The tripartite route of development is as follows. Firstly, it is expected to design and carry out the tasks and agenda in line with China’s Ministry of Education’s concern of internationalization in higher education. Secondly, it is vital to focus on important aspects with a deep awareness of opportunities and challenges of internationalization. Thirdly, it is of practical significance to explore various potentials of development through Sino-Russian cooperation in faculty training and development, cultivation of talents, scientific research and cultural exchange with the help of platforms of cooperation in operation. With the joint efforts of both parties, there is hope that the cultivation of talents in foreign language education will bolster mutual capabilities in serving the Belt and Road Initiative.
Book Publications and Research of Petrogyphs of Northern Regions of China in the Last Quarter of the 20th Century
Authors: Varenov Andrey V.
Published: April 2021

In China, rock art is spread mainly in the border regions – carvings and engravings in the north of the country and paintings in the south. Before the beginning of the 21st century, research books and albums of petroglyphs were published in four administrative units at provincial level in the north-west of the county: Inner Mongolia, Ningxia, Xinjiang and Qinghai. Petroglyphs of Inner Mongolia were studied and published by Gai Shanlin, Liang Zhenhua and N. Dalengurib. The earliest and the latest books by Gai Shanlin available to us (published in 1985 and 2002 respectively) were entirely devoted to the interpretation of rock carvings and searches for their analogies. All four monographs on Ningxia rock art – by Zhou Xinghua, Li Xiangshi and Zhu Cunshi, Xu Cheng and Wei Zhong were published almost simultaneously, at the beginning of the 1990s. Ancient rock art of Xinjiang was published in albums by Zhao Yangfeng, Wang Linshan and Wang Bo and in books by Wang Binghua and Su Beihai. The monograph by Tang Huisheng and Zhang Wenhua was devoted to the description of Qinghai petroglyphs and the problems of their interpretation. The album of photos “The Rock Arts of China” is a kind of a guide to the main rock art sites known by 1993 in all the Chinese provinces. Generally, it can be stated that modern Chinese scientific rock art research was born in the first half of the 1980s, when the first articles on rock carvings started to appear in Chinese archaeological periodicals and flourished in the second half of the 1980s and the 1990s, when quite a number of monographs were published.

Published: April 2021

The article contains the correspondence of participant XII (1840–1849), head XIII (1849–1859) and XV (1865–1878) of Russian Ecclesiastical Missions in Beijing (REM), the greatest Russian orientalist, Archimandrite Palladius (Kafarov) (1817–1878) to the head of the Russian Diplomatic Mission in China, Evgeny Karlovich Byutsov (1837–1904). The original letters were found by the author in the State Archive of the Russian Federation (Moscow) in the Byutsov collection. The analyzed letters were written in Beijing from June 30 to December 3, 1877, during the period when Archimandrite Palladius (Kafarov) was the head of the XV Russian Ecclesiastical Mission, and Yevgeny Byutsov led the Russian diplomatic mission in China. The study of documents that were not yet introduced into scientific circulation aims to fill in the gaps in the study of the activities of the XV Russian Ecclesiastical Mission in Beijing and its contacts with the Russian Diplomatic Mission in China. The letters provide rich material on the relationship between the two leaders of the most important Russian authorities, officially operating in the Chinese capital after the Second Opium War. The letters contain numerous details about the everyday aspects of the life of XV REM, including many References to earlier unknown difficulties encountered by the chief of the XV REM with its employees. Archimandrite Palladius pays much attention to the description of the restructuring of the Northern Metochion of the REM, which began during this period.

В статье обсуждается возможность изменения существующего подхода к оценке защищенности помещений, предназначенных для проведения закрытых переговоров за счет перехода от формантной методики оценки разборчивости речи Н.Б. Покровского к использованию алгоритмов распознавания речи на основе глубоких нейронных сетей. В данном случае предлагается использовать рекуррентные нейронные сети, которые лучше всего зарекомендовали себя с точки зрения обработки информации с низкими отношениями сигнал/шум. Также для повышения эффективности распознавания предлагается использовать в качестве тестового сигнала не произвольную речь, а заранее известный нашему алгоритму распознавания тестовый сигнал. Кроме того, обосновывается необходимость учета индивидуальных особенностей помещения и диктора, а также возможность использования помех типа «речевой хор».

Аллергия - одна из самых распространённых болезней в мире и ее эпидемический рост за последние 30-40 лет очевиден. Результаты многочисленных российских и зарубежных эпидемиологических исследований объективно отражают неуклонное увеличение аллергопатологии. В том числе, пыльцевые аллергены являются одними из самых распространённых аллергических триггеров. Аллергией на пыльцу страдают около 15 % населения, это одно из самых распространенных аллергических заболеваний. Отсюда следует важность построения дисперсионных комплексов и прогностических таблиц, позволяющих оценивать воздействия комбинации аллергических триггеров «пыльца березы + пыльца ольхи» на категорию наблюдаемых симптомов («заложенность носа», «сыпь», «удушье», «зуд»). Для определения силы влияния на комбинации аллергических триггеров «пыльца березы + пыльца ольхи» на симптомы построены дисперсионные комплексы. Расчеты проводились с помощью вычислительной системы STIR с реализацией вычислительного алгоритма построения дисперсионных комплексов и прогностических вероятностных таблиц.

Low-scale aquaculture can be a successful model in rural settings because it can reduce demand for products and job creation, but one of the limiting factors to establish these aquaculture systems is the weakness of the manage-ment of technological processes in fish production by farmers. It is therefore necessary to promote training and technology transfer to the productive sector in order to promote conditions of self-employment, food security and to include beneficiaries throughout the process. Technological transfer is a mechanism that can increase aquaculture productivity and boost its profits. This scenario sought to design and build an aquaculture system for tropical gar (Atractosteus tropicus) and Mayan cichlid (Mayaheros urophthalmus) culture, with the participa-tion of local skilled people through the technological transfer of aquaculture. This system was developed in a locality in the Centla Swamps in southeastern México from 2017 to 2019 in five phases: diagnosis, presentation, design and construction, implementation and monitoring. The transfer of technology for the culture of species was made possible by the advice of the working teams and the support of the inhabitants. It was identified that the participants had a change in their perception of aquaculture and acquired skills in this activity. Community participation is an essential part of technology transfer.

Purpose: In our department, we routinely perform Computed Tomography (CT) or Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) of the lower extremity to assess femoral torsion for preoperative planning prior correcting osteotomies. It might be difficult to assess the FA, because on axial images the depicted part of the femoral neck is too short to allow correct alignment of the axis of the femoral neck. Measurements can also be performed on oblique axial images with improvement of depiction of the femoral neck but are smaller than those of measurements on axial images, due to the fact that images depend on rules of trigonometry. The aim is to provide a trigonometrical formula to calculate the value for FA, allowing precise assessment of femoral anteversion on oblique axial images similar to those on axial images. Materials and Methods: Trigonometrical transformation is performed in three steps. Initial measurement of femoral anteversion on oblique images is transformed via a corresponding rectangular triangle from coronal images to calculated femoral anteversion on axial images. Results: The first triangle is labelled with a1, b1, c1 for the sides and alpha1, beta1for the angles. Second and third triangle is labelled correspondingly. Length of both cathetus a1 and b1 are calculated as follows: cathetus a1=sin alpha1*c1 and cathetus b1=cos alpha 1*c1. Cathetus b2 is calculated as follows: b2=cos alpha2*c2. alpha3=tan-1 (a3/b3). Initial calculation of angle alpha3=tan-1 (a3/b3)=tan-1 (a1/b2), with a3=a1=sin alpha1*c1 and b3=b2=cos alpha2*b1*c, with b1=cos alpha1*c1 and b3=cos alpha2*cos alpha1*c1². The final formula is then: alpha3=tan-1 ((sin alpha1*c1)/(cos alpha²*cos alpha1*c12)) = tan-1 ((sin alpha1/(alpha2*cos alpha1*c1)) Conclusion: In this study we can provide a formula: alpha3=tan-1 ((sin alpha1/(cos alpha2*cos alpha1*c1)), which allows to calculate the femoral anteversion for true axial reconstructed images with the increased accuracy of measurements on oblique images and the ability to use the already known reference values from the literature.

Authors: zahra Laila , Khan Yaser Daanial
Published: April 2021

Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome coronavirus 2 which is widely known as Sars-Cov-2 is a deadly virus that is the main cause of Coronavirus Disease (COVID-19). This plague affects the human immune system badly and adversely affects the human body. This disease emerged from Wuhan, China, and spread all over the world in a very short period. The World Health Organization (WHO) has warned the world about its dire consequences and directed all the countries to take strict precautionary measures and still, there are lots of things that need to be done. This study focuses on the in silico methods which use immunoinformatic approaches to build epitope-based subunit vaccine for SARS-COV-2 that is used to produce several positive immune responses within the host cell. Various B-cells, Tc cells, and Th cells containing different epitopes are considered for the inhibition of spike of SARS-COV-2. By following different approaches, eventually, the structure of the proposed vaccine consists of Tc, Th cells, and B-cells joined by different linkers was designed. Currently having B-cell as well as IFN-y made epitopes confirm the humoral and cell-mediated immune response developed by the proposed vaccine. An online server, PSIPRED is used to develop the model of vaccine. 15 antigenic epitopes were chosen from Spike protein to develop an effective vaccine. This vaccine was antiviral, non?allergic, and less toxic. The sequence of vaccine structure was then validated by different computational methods like Molecular Docking, RMSD, RMSF, and Molecular Dynamic Simulation. Java Codon adaption tool also known as JCat is used for maximal optimization of vaccine expression with vector.

Authors: Timofeeva Daria , Lindsay David , Kerr William , Nelson David
Published: April 2021

Herein we examine the relationship between reaction rate and reaction selectivity in iridium-catalysed hydrogen isotope

exchange (HIE) reactions directed by Lewis basic functional groups. We have recently develped a directing group scale that allows semi-quantitative predictions of Lewis base directed selectivity in HIE, formally ranking ‘relative rates’ determined from a structured set of competition experiments. Here, we show that selectivity and rate are in fact not correlated, but that different types of behaviour emerge in competition experiments and that the observed behaviour can be predicted from our established selectivity scale.

Understanding catalytic reactions is inherently difficult because not only is the catalyst the least abundant component in the mixture, but it also takes many different forms as the reaction proceeds. Precatalyst is converted into active catalyst, short-lived intermediates, resting states, and decomposition products. Polymerization catalysis is harder yet to study, because as the polymer grows the identities of these species change with every turnover as monomers are added to the chain. Modern mass spectrometric methods have proved to be up to the challenge, with multiple reaction monitoring (MRM) in conjunction with pressurized sample infusion (PSI) used to continuously probe all stages of the Suzuki polycondensation (SPC) reaction. Initiation, propagation, and termination steps were tracked in real time, and the outstanding sensitivity and low signal-to-noise of the approach has real promise with respect to the depth with which this reaction and others like it can be studied.

Mixed anion materials and anion doping are very promising strategies to improve solid-state electrolyte properties by enabling an optimized balance between good electrochemical stability and high ionic conductivity. In this work, we present the discovery of a novel lithium aluminum sulfide-chloride phase. The structure is strongly affected by the presence of chloride anions on the sulfur site, as this stabilizes a higher symmetry phase presenting a large degree of cationic site disorder, as well as disordered octahedral lithium vacancies, in comparison with Li-Al-S ternaries. The effect of disorder on the lithium conductivity properties was assessed by a combined experimental-theoretical approach. In particular, the conductivity is increased by a factor 103 compared to the pure sulfide phases. Although it remains moderate (10−6 S·cm-1), Ab Initio Molecular Dynamics and Maximum Entropy (applied to neutron diffraction data) methods show that disorder leads to a 3D diffusion pathway, where Li atoms move thanks to a concerted mechanism. An understanding of the structure-property relationships is developed to determine the limiting factor governing lithium ion conductivity. This analysis, added to the strong step forward obtained in the determination of the dimensionality of diffusion paves the way for accessing even higher conductivity in materials comprising an hcp anion arrangement.

Chatt reaction methods were employed to synthesize the first well characterized actinide-arene sandwich complexes. Namely, addition of [UI2(THF)3(μ-OMe)]2⸱THF (2⸱THF) to THF solutions containing 6 equiv. of K[C14H10] generates the dimeric complexes [K(18-crown-6)(THF)2]2[U(η6-C14H10)(η4-C14H10)(μ-OMe)]2⸱4THF (118C6⸱4THF) and {[K(THF)3][U(η6-C14H10)(η4-C14H10)(μ-OMe)]}2 (1THF) upon crystallization of the products in THF in the presence or absence of 18-crown-6, respectively. Both 118C6⸱4THF and 1THF are thermally stable in the solid-state at room temperature; however, after crystallization, they become insoluble in THF or DME solutions and instead gradually decompose upon standing. X-ray diffraction analysis reveals 118C6⸱4THF and 1THF to be structurally similar, possessing uranium centers sandwiched between anthracene ligands of mixed tetrahapto and hexahapto ligation modes. Yet, the two complexes are distinguished by the close contact potassium-arene ion pairing that is seen in 1THF but absent in 118C6⸱4THF, which is observed to have a significant effect on the electronic characteristics of the two complexes. Structural analysis, SQUID magnetometry data, XANES spectral characterization, and computational analyses are generally consistent with U(IV) formal assignments for the metal centers in both 118C6⸱4THF and 1THF, though noticeable differences are detected between the two species. For instance, the effective magnetic moment of 1THF (3.74 µB) is significantly lower than that of 118C6⸱4THF (4.40 µB) at 300 K. Furthermore, the XANES data shows the U LIII-edge absorption energy for 1THF to be 0.9 eV higher than that of 118C6⸱4THF, suggestive of more oxidized metal centers in the former. Of note, CASSCF calculations on the model complex {[U(η6-C14H10)(η4-C14H10)(μ-OMe)]2}2- (1*) shows highly polarized uranium-arene interactions defined by π-type bonds where the metal contributions are primarily comprised by the 6d-orbitals (7.3± 0.6%) with minor participation from the 5f-orbitals (1.5 ± 0.5%). These unique complexes provide new insights into actinide-arene bonding interactions and show the sensitivity of the electronic structures of the uranium atoms to coordination sphere effects.

Published: April 2021

Here we report a study on cyclohexanohemicucurbit[8]uril (cycHC[8]) binding of sulfur-, oxygen- and nitrogen-containing heterocycles in both solid state and solution, which is investigated by single crystal X-ray diffraction, NMR spectroscopy, isothermal titration calorimetry, and thermogravimetry. Potential guests include environmental pollutants, hazardous compounds, and bioactive substances. We found that cycHC[8] encapsulates five- and six-membered sulfur- and oxygen-containing unsubstituted heterocycles and can be used as a selective sorption material for the extraction of sulfur-heterocycles from water. Both cycHC[6] and cycHC[8] can remove a substituted heterocycle, α-lipoic acid, from an aqueous solution via the formation of an external complex. The results show that cycHC[n] is a promising reusable sorbent material with the potential to be employed in molecular recognition and highly specific solid-phase extraction of sulfur-heterocycles.

Exposure to proinflammatory cytokines is believed to contribute to pancreatic β-cell damage during diabetes development. Although some cytokine-mediated changes in islet gene expression are known, the heterogeneity of the response is not well-understood. After 6-h treatment with IL-1β and IFN-γ alone or together, mouse islets were subjected to single-cell RNA sequencing. Treatment with both cytokines together led to expression of inducible nitric oxide synthase mRNA (Nos2) and antiviral and immune-associated genes in a subset of β-cells. Interestingly, IL-1β alone activated antiviral genes. Subsets of δ- and α-cells expressedNos2and exhibited similar gene expression changes as β-cells, including increased expression of antiviral genes and repression of identity genes. Finally, cytokine responsiveness was inversely correlated with expression of genes encoding heat shock proteins. Our findings show that all islet endocrine cell types respond to cytokines, IL-1β induces the expression of protective genes, and cellular stress gene expression is associated with inhibition of cytokine signaling.

Authors:   Open University Malaysia, Osman Zahir
Published: April 2021

The main purpose of this study is to develop a mediating effect understanding of self-efficacy on time management and students’ performance relationship in Malaysian online distance learning institutions. A model was developed and later tested by adopting the partial Least Square (PLS) procedure on data collected from a survey that yielded 210 usable questionnaires. The findings showed that time management enhanced self-efficacy in Malaysian online distance learning institutions. It was also revealed that self-efficacy partially mediates the relationship between time management and students’ performance. In future, more research needs to be carried out to explore the role of self-efficacy in Malaysian online distance learning institutions. It is important to do the study utilizing experimental design by capturing longitudinal data in Malaysian online distance learning institutions using robust measures. The findings imply that the relationship between self-efficacy and attrition rate may reside in self-efficacy’s influence on students’ performance, and that self-efficacy plays a crucial function within the Malaysian online distance learning institutions. This study uses Smartpls 2.0 and SPSS 18.0 to test the hypothesis and analyze respondents’ profile respectively.

Public Private Partnership (PPP) is not a new method of development in a country. In Malaysia, concept of PPP had been used almost four decades after Malaysian Incorporated Policy had been introduced by the government. The objectives of this present study is to scrutinize defining the concept of PPP, the evolution of implementation PPP, and also characteristic and criteria of PPP based on Public Private Partnership Guidelines. This paper also examines the potential benefits of PPP implementation in Malaysia based on the previous study. Last but not least, issues and recommendation for future study has been suggested to enhance PPP implementation project.
Promoting Entrepreneurial Competencies via Education: Is Malaysian Polytechnic Entrepreneurship Education Effective?
Authors:   Politeknik Sultan Azlan Shah, Malaysia, Yusoff Asliza
Published: April 2021

Malaysian Polytechnic has been actively participating in providing entrepreneurship education (EE) and training to improve basic skills and encourage self-employment among its graduates. Sadly, a scrutiny of the available literature suggests that Malaysian polytechnic entrepreneurship education (MPEE) is ineffective as it fails to inculcate entrepreneurial spirit among the students. Students who have finished the MPEE were reported to have not embedded with enterprising knowledge, business skills and attributes during their study in polytechnics. However, these findings obviously demand further clarification. First, although entrepreneurship is indeed a very long process and cannot be created overnight, previous studies measured the effectiveness of MPEE by looking into students’ readiness for entrepreneurship. Although scholars have argued that entrepreneurial readiness or intention is the proximal determinant of entrepreneurial behaviour, intention alone is not enough in measuring entrepreneurship as it does not lead to immediate action. Second, previous studies also missed to apply the regression method in their analysis to investigate the impact of MPEE on students’ entrepreneurial development, leaving both theoretical and methodological gaps to be filled by the current study. Based on this justifications, this study proposes that the effectiveness of MPEE can be studied by looking at how it creates students’ intellectual capital, which is the asset that are garnered from an investment in EE, and students’ entrepreneurial behaviour via a longitudinal design. This effort is deemed important since understanding the effectiveness of MPEE will bring substantial value to the overall educational, economic, and societal well-being in the long run. The significance of this study lies in its effort to reveal the effectiveness of MPEE by investigating its impact on ‘the other side’ of entrepreneurial intention, which is its behavioural aspect.
