Water Quality Evaluation and Spatiotemporal Variation Characteristics of Wenyu River Based on Comprehensive Water Quality Identification Index Method
Authors: Keke Wang , Baohui Men , Yanling Xing
Published: June 2022

In recent years, the water environment management of the Wenyu River has yielded positive outcomes. In comparison to earlier, the general water quality has substantially improved. However, some areas’ water quality has not improved as a result of the overall trend of improvement, which has implications for the surrounding areas and the entire water environment. To further explore the water environmental quality of specific river sections, this paper adopts the five monitoring sections of Shahe Gate, Mafang, Lutuan Gate, Xinbao Gate, and the additional sewage outlet in 2019, and the three main water quality indicators of COD, DO, and NH3-N. The water quality of the Wenyu River was evaluated using the comprehensive water quality identification index method, and the characteristics of its temporal and spatial changes were studied using correlation analysis and spatial clustering. The results have shown that the Wenyu River is generally Grade V water during the flood season, and is inferior to Grade V water during the non-flood season. All indicators have a regular time and space distribution and are highly influenced by environmental and human factors. Overall, the water quality of the Wenyu River may essentially reach the water environment function zoning target value. Improvements to the river portions below the Xinbao sluice, as well as the use of rainwater resources, must be prioritized.

Authors: Ennan Zheng , Zhu Yinhao , Xu Tianyu
Published: June 2022

Rice quality and yield traits response to fertilizers under varying field conditions were obtained in our previous study. A better understanding of the intrinsic mechanism of fertilization in regulating rice quality and yield supports field operations and recommendations. This study investigated the potential role of humic acid and bean cake fertilizers as opposed to traditional nitrogen fertilizer (urea) in regulating rice quality and yield traits under water-saving conditions by identifying the quality and yield indicators. Results demonstrated that the application of humic acid and bean cake fertilizers affected the quality and yield compared with the traditional nitrogen fertilizer (urea), which alleviated the deterioration of rice quality and yield caused by excessive fertilizer amounts. The conclusions are that the addition of humic acid and bean cake fertilizers can improve grain quality.

Authors: Gaurav Nikhilesh , Singh Geeta
Published: June 2022

For groundwater evaluation, delineation, discovery, and resource management in drought and flood zones, the geographical information system (GIS) has a wide range of uses. For the study area, various thematic layers were prepared, such as a digital elevation map (DEM), geomorphology, LULC, soil, drainage density, precipitation, and slope. The thematic layers were combined using the WIOA technique. The possible areas for groundwater have been demarcated into four zones: 1-poor, 2-moderate, 3-good, and 4-very good. In the eastern parts of the district, very strong (GWPZs) were found, while in the west and mid regions, moderate and bad categories were found. Drought and flood potential danger areas were divided into four zones: 1-no risk, 2-low risk, 3-moderate risk, and 4-high risk. In the middle part of the region, there was a higher risk of drought and a reduced risk of flooding in the eastern part of the area, an elevated risk of flooding in the eastern part of the area, and a lower to no risk of flooding in the western and central regions. The groundwater, drought, and flood potential zonation map built in the present study will be useful for scholars, and implementers in exploring appropriate water exploration locations and implementing resource utilization.

Objective: To assess the prevalence of smoking among pharmacy students and to analyse how smoking affects pharmacy students’ attitudes towards smoking cessation practices.
Methods: An online questionnaire was distributed to students from five schools at the Lebanese International University as part of a cross-sectional study. It looked into sociodemographic identities, smoking attitudes and beliefs, and pharmacy students’ smoking cessation consultation procedures.
Results: A total of 1372 students were enrolled in the study (159 pharmacy students and 1213 non-pharmacy students). Almost half of the participants (45.0%) were current smokers, with males accounting for the majority. There was a substantial correlation between knowledge of smoking's health implications and smoking status (p = 0.021). Nonsmoking pharmacy students were more likely than smokers to offer cessation advice (p < 0.0001).
Conclusion: A high smoking prevalence was determined among students, which should be addressed by boosting tobacco awareness efforts and enforcing strict anti-smoking policies on college premises.
Aporetic Structure of Philosophical Problems
Authors: Barz Wolfgang
Published: June 2022

The central idea of this essay is that philosophical thinking revolves around aporetic clusters, i.e., sets of individually plausible, but collectively inconsistent propositions. The task of philosophy is to dissolve such clusters, either by showing that the propositions in question, contrary to first impression, are compatible with each other, or by showing that it is permissible to abandon at least one of the propositions involved. This view of philosophical problems not only provides a very good description of well-understood philosophizing, but is also better suited than others to explain some seemingly strange characteristics of philosophy, most notably its armchair character, the large variety of incommensurable doctrines by which it is characterized, and its concern with its own history.
Negativity and Wisdom as Part of Philosophy Education
Authors: Thomas Philipp
Published: June 2022

Negativity is understood here as the theoretical insight into the limits of knowledge as well as the practical, even existential consequences of this insight. The tradition of philosophical wisdom reflects negativity in this sense since antiquity. The concepts of negativity in Nietzsche, Hegel, Wittgenstein, and Heidegger are also reconstructed in the article as part of this tradition. The text tries to make these philosophies accessible to philosophy education. The starting point here is the question about a way of life that has dissociated itself from ideological certainties.
Gender-sensitive approaches to teaching Aristotetle's practical philosophy
Authors: Von Lüpke Annika
Published: June 2022

The Aristotelian practical philosophy is an integral element of many school canons and also contains numerous statements which are classified as sexist from today’s perspective. This raises the question of how to deal with discriminatory content in classical works of philosophy within a classroom context. In this article, I argue in favor of a critically-reflective treatment of discriminatory content in the teaching of classical works of philosophy. I propose how this can be achieved in the case of Aristotle’s analysis of gender relations in the Politics employing a three-step model. Following a close reading of key passages, pertinent works of feminist philosophy are presented, which critically reflect upon central theorems of patriarchal views and which also put forward approaches of their own. In order to further stimulate the students’ reflection, the examination of the feminist critique of Aristotle is then expanded into a debate on various forms of discourse on “gender”.
Argumentative Skills
Authors: Burkard Anne , Franzen Henning , Löwenstein David , Romizi Donata , Wienmeister Annett
Published: June 2022

In this paper, we propose a framework for fostering argumentative skills in a systematic way in Philosophy and Ethics classes. We start with a review of curricula and teaching materials from the German-speaking world to show that there is an urgent need for standards for the teaching and learning of argumentation. Against this backdrop, we present a framework for such standards that is intended to tackle these difficulties. The spiral-curricular model of argumentative competences we sketch helps teachers introduce the relevant concepts and skills to students early on in their school career. The focus is on secondary schools, but the proposal can also be of use for learning and teaching in universities, especially in introductory classes.
Seeing the World More Clearly
Authors: Balg Dominik
Published: June 2022

In this paper, I discuss the effects of using thought experiments for the purpose of conceptual clarification of students’ hermeneutical abilities. On the one hand, by providing opportunities to explore the scope of normatively loaded concepts, thought experiments can effectively help students to interpret their social and moral reality more adequately, which in some cases might even help to reduce existing hermeneutical injustices. On the other hand, given their notorious susceptibility to distorting factors that are philosophically irrelevant, they can also push students into accepting idiosyncratic intuitions that they don’t really share and thereby further impair their hermeneutical abilities. After setting out this dilemma in more detail, I will propose various strategies for facilitating the safe use of thought experiments that instructors can use to effectively exploit the empowering potential of thought experiments.

The results of statistical processing of data on the diagnostics of breast cancer in patients of the Vitebsk Regional Clinical Oncological Dispensary for 2019-2020 are presented in this article. Extracts from medical records of 1061 patients (617 - 2019; 444 - 2020) aged 20 to 99 years were analyzed. In particular, methods for diagnosing the disease, the stages of registration of breast cancer were studied, the circumstances of the detection of the disease, the ratio of lesions of different parts of the mammary gland according to ICD-10, the results of the analysis of the occurrence of the disease depending on age, the features of the occurrence of relapses and metastases, the mortality of patients of different age groups, the ratio of patients from urban and rural areas. In 91.99 % of cases, the histological method was used to diagnose the disease. Echoscopic (0.75 % of cases) and X-ray (0.28 % of cases) diagnostic methods have found the least use. In the majority (45.80 % of cases) the disease was detected at stage II, in 7.71 % of cases breast cancer was registered at stage IV. In more than half of the cases (50.51 %), the disease affected the upper outer quadrant of the breast, which corresponds to the ICD-10 code C50.4 (Malignant neoplasm of the upper outer quadrant of the breast). There was an increase in the risk of breast cancer with increasing age of patients (approximation - 0.9577) with an average age of patients - 62 years. Relapses and metastases were found in 13.57 % of patients with breast cancer, and in 36.81 % of cases - at stage IV of the disease. Among patients, the largest number of relapses and metastases (22 cases each) was found in the age groups 55-59 and 60-64 years. Mortality for 2019-2020 was 7.92 % (84 patients died, among which relapses and metastases were detected in 38 people). Most of all patients (77.57 %) with diagnosed breast cancer live in urban areas, 22.43 % are patients from rural areas.

Wastes of confectionery production in the Republic of Belarus at the moment are egg shells, spoiled, contaminated food, food containing harmful food additives. Based on the statistical data of the Republic of Belarus, it was found that the total amount of waste generated by the confectionery industry and eggshell from 2015 to 2020 increased by 86,6 %. These generated wastes of confectionery production in our country are currently practically not processed and are sent to a landfill as part of municipal waste, thus increasing environmental pollution. Therefore, there was an economically, technologically and environmentally justified need to develop recommendations for the management of confectionery waste. On the example of one of the largest confectionery enterprises of the Republic of Belarus, the use of technological equipment was investigated and justified - a drum dryer for processing eggshell waste. To obtain high-quality raw materials (eggshell flour), the main parameter of the plants is the ability to maintain high temperatures. This characteristic served as the main parameter for choosing a drum set. Calculations have shown that the cost of collecting and transferring waste to processing enterprises is much less than the cost of drum dryer equipment alone. Also, such installations require additional equipment with various expensive components. In addition, the cost of preparing the site on which the equipment will be installed, commissioning and regular sanitary maintenance with regular technical inspections and repairs of the installation were taken into account. Considering the volumes of generation of these wastes at enterprises and in the whole country, it is not advisable for the enterprises of our state to carry out individual processing of these wastes within production. It is recommended to transfer egg shell waste for processing to third-party specialized enterprises. This decision will help reduce the amount of eggshell waste transferred to landfill sites, and will also allow processors to pay for shell processing plants by selling the resulting products.

SPECIALISED TOURIST DISCOURSE
Authors:   University of Rome, Humanities Department, Boyarkina I.
Published: June 2022

The concept of specialised tourism discourse presents several difficulties for researchers. First of all, at present there is no unanimity among scholars about the definition of specialised discourse due to the variety of approaches employed in this field. Another difficulty arises from a binary nature of the language of tourism: on the one hand, it is employed by numerous specialists working in the industry of tourism. On the other hand, due to the high social impact of tourism and for promotional purposes tourism discourse must cater for as many people (tourists and potential clients) as possible, hence, its language must be comprehensible even for laymen with different levels of instruction. As many lingiusts observe, “Rarely are the professional aspects of tourism discourse investigated” (Maci 2020). Moreover, development of Internet brought further challenges to the studies of specialised tourism discourse. This paper focuses on the analysis of tourism discourse in English in socials for promotional purposes and on the specialised tourism discourse of ecological sustainability of the industry of tourism.

As a result of the study, it was established that the park «Friendship of the Peoples’’ in its condition belongs to the parks with average recreational loads. The main types of recreational use of the park are walks, walks with dogs, sports, holding fairs. The park is poorly equipped for this use: there are not enough places to rest (benches, gazebos, etc.). There are no containers for separate collection of garbage. The results of the assessment of the condition of the stand of trees show that the weakened tree is located along the street of M. Bogdanovich before the intersection with Orlovsky, as well as in the central part of the park. Along the street of L. Karastaynova the condition of the trees is much better. This is due to the age of the trees and the intensity of the transport load. However, there is a negative dynamic at the site, located in the area of the reversal ring of Bangalore Square.

Quo Vadis Penegakan Hukum: Kewenangan Pemerintah Terhadap Lingkungan Hidup dalam Kasus Illegal Logging Di Indonesia
Authors: Agustinus Mikael Rondo Pieter
Published: June 2022

Illegal logging in Indonesia is not a new problem. The problem of illegal logging has existed since the Old Order era, even before. The term illegal logging has only recently become popular, but deforestation, including illegal logging, has been going on for a long time. Generally, illegal logging or illegal logging is motivated by economic interests. People who want to get more profit, workers who cut trees, people around the forest who do illegal logging because they really need income to survive. The aim is to guarantee legal certainty and provide a deterrent effect for perpetrators of forest destruction and ensure the existence of forests in a sustainable manner while maintaining sustainability and not damaging the environment and surrounding ecosystems. Research This qualitative method can be used to uncover and understand something behind a phenomenon that is not at all known. The qualitative narrative format aims to describe, summarize various conditions, situations or various phenomena of social reality that exist in society. The elements contained in the crime of Illegal Logging include activities, logging, timber transportation, logging, logging, and the purchase of timber, which can damage the forest, as well as there are laws that prohibit and conflict with applicable laws. Illegal logging includes a series of activities in forestry related to the use and management of forests that are against the law and may damage forests. it is concluded that the people who commit the crime of illegal logging are people who do not think about the impact or influence that will arise if illegal logging is carried out or illegal logging of forest trees. The impact of illegal logging is very detrimental to the community in addition to causing natural disasters, but will also cause disasters in crises of social and economic needs.
Krisis Kasih dalam Gereja sebagai Refleksi Bagi Kehidupan Orang Percaya Masa Kini
Authors: Georges nicolas Djone , Surya Siahaan Soneta Sang , Amien Timothy
Published: June 2022

Firman Tuhan dengan tegas dan lugas menyatakan bahwa orang-orang yang sudah percaya kepada Kristus, dengan kata lain yang telah keluar dari kegelapan atau maut, dan masuk ke dalam terang atau hidup mempunyai kesadaran akan kewajiban menunjukkan kasih melalui pengorbanan bagi sesama sebagai wujud representasi kasih Kristus yang nyata dan sempurna (Yohanes 3:14-16 (TB). Hal tersebut telah dibuktikan oleh jemaat mula, murid-murid Kristus yang setia dalam melayani satu dengan yang lain dengan tidak mementingkan ego masing-masing, tetapi sebaliknya justru rela mengorbankan milik pribadi demi memrnuhi keperluan sesama, sehingga dengan demikian keharmonisan dan kesatuan dalam kasih persaudaraan tercipta demi kemuliaan Kerajaan Allah Kisah Para Rasul 2:42-47 (TB). Tujuan dari penelitian ini adalah menganalisa penyebab krisis kasih dalam kehidupan orang percaya di masa kini. Kekristenan tidak dapat dilepaskan dari pribadi Kristus di mana Ia merupakan figur sentral. Metode pendekatan penelitian yang dipakai adalah kualitatif deskriptif dengan pengumpulan data melalui berbagai sumber seperti Alkitab, buku, jurnal, wawancara, serta sumber lain yang mempunyai keterkaitan dengan topik kajian. Hasilnya, pertama tujuan kehidupan sebagian orang percaya bukanlah untuk memuliakan Kristus, tetapi justru untuk kepentingan diri sendiri sehingga menjadi batu sandungan. Kedua, nilai kehidupan yang dihidupi oleh orang Kristen tidak berbeda dengan nilai kehidupan orang dunia (di luar kekristenan). dapat disimpulkan bahwa terdapat dua penyebab krisis kasih dalam kehidupan orang percaya di masa kini, yakni: Pertama, tujuan kehidupan yang dihidupi oleh  sebagian orang percaya bukanlah untuk memuliakan Kristus, tetapi justru untuk kepentingan diri sendiri sehingga menjadi batu sandungan dan bergeser dari misi Allah.

Authors:   Department of Technology Systems, East Carolina University, Greenville, North Carolina, USA, Austin Adrian Dana
Published: June 2022

In The context of Information technology and Cyber Security a nexus of computers and humans occurs as Social engineering. Defenders would like to know how this group interacts with users to gain access to secure information. The purpose of this research initially was to find out from Social Engineers what were the best defensive techniques. A survey was created to ask social engineers about specific defensive techniques that are prevalent in Cyber security. Not enough data was collected from social engineers and the second half of the paper covers why this was. One of the main reasons for lack of data was due to a lack of in-group trust of the researchers by the group being researched. Much of the theory behind the why has been applied to other groups in other fields.
Language Use in the Propaganda-Driven Boko Haram War in Nigeria
Authors:   Department of English, School of Languages,Oyo State College of Education, Lanlate, OKEDIGBA Segun Ogunniyi
Published: June 2022

For about two decades now, Boko Haram, whose real name is “Jama`at ahl al-sunna li-da`wa wa-l-qital”, has been waging war against the Nigerian nation in a bid to carve an Islamic state (a caliphate) out of Nigeria. The group is opposed to any form of Western education as its name; Boko Haram, means “(Western) education is forbidden.” Pursuant to this, the deadly group has attacked schools where hundreds of students were kidnapped. Hundreds of people have also been killed by the group. However, the Nigerian government, through its well-oiled propaganda machine, is wont to make Nigerians believe that it is winning the war against Boko Haram. For example, the Nigerian government has, at one time or the other, said that Boko Haram had been “technically decimated” or “defeated several times.” The reality, however, is that the insurgents are the ones having the upper hand as they resurfaced (even with more viciousness and brutality) each time government claimed the group had been defeated. Therefore, this paper looks at how both the Nigerian government and the leadership of Boko Haram deploy language in the propaganda-driven Boko Haram war with the aim of exposing how effectively or otherwise the government of Nigeria and Boko Haram have employed language in dishing out propaganda to the public. It concludes that for the fight against the insurgents to be effective, the Nigerian government must show its readiness to fight crimes and criminality instead of relying on propaganda. Among others, the paper recommends that the Nigerian government should not take Boko Haram messages as “mere propaganda” because the insurgent group has on many occasions lived up to its threat.

Education has a critical role in realizing Malaysia's aspirations to be a developed country in the world. Empirical research was completed to evaluate and assess the fundamental aspects of the quality of services and facilities of premier universities (world-ranked) in the Klang Valley, Malaysia, particularly in terms of non-academic aspects, academic aspects, reliability/access, empathy/understanding, reputation, and program issues. This research employed Firdaus Abdullah (2006) Higher Education Performance (HedPerf) instrument because service quality has a substantial influence on student satisfaction. The survey involved 1440 respondents, consisting of university students who were approached randomly at various faculties at two world-ranked public universities and two world-ranked private universities. This research found that university students were extremely satisfied with academic concerns and a university's strong reputation. Students were pleased with the quality of academic courses and programs, as well as the academic staff's positive attitude and work habits. This is the main deciding factor for both domestic and foreign students when selecting a renowned university. Academic supporting services, career counseling services, dean of student services, testing grading system, course content, instruction, university attitudes toward students, offering a diverse range of courses, and class size were the areas of students' needs and satisfaction. Quality of services and facilities is a extremely important factor for internationalization, global competition, and the future sustainability of a university.
