Educational Aspects in the Book of Deuteronomy
Authors: Boiliu Dr. Noh Ibrahim
Published: July 2023

The problem with this research is that the level of the practice of Christian religious education in Indonesia, which has taken place so far, is dogmatic. The pattern of Christian religious education is dogmatic in terms of content and approach. In terms of content, dogmatic themes are taught and passed on to others (children and adults). This model is a top-down model—for example, catechetics material. In the Catechetics curriculum, the material taught is generally about Confession of the Faith, the Ten Commandments, the Biblical canon, the prayer of our Father, the history of the church, and the ordinances of the church. In terms of content, it is apparent that the approach is thematically dogmatic. This approach does not lead to critical, constructive, and solution bringing ideas. This research aims to establish the concept of Christian education based on Biblical theological approaches. The result of the analysis is that the present theology of the book of Deuteronomy provides valuable and essential educational material.
A Critical Analysis of Affirmative Action in South Africa: Theological and Educational Perspectives
Authors: Pietersen Dr Doniwen
Published: July 2023

In recent years, there has been an increasing interest in social justice action that is deliberate and affirmative to marginalised groups in South Africa. The background to this is framed against a ‘Missionary-political justice’ or 'missional-political justice' approach, the clear distinctive that characterises missional imperatives that is very clearly related to postmodern South African culture... [and] emerging churches in postmodern contexts'. The use of this approach gives a new wave of interpretation in the field of mission in order to ultimately deal with developments in South Africa generally but more particularly within ecclesiological structures. An adequate case is defended, and the implications of apartheid in the current South Africa necessitate affirmative action as justice and finally an examination of justice and restitution as founded in Scripture, as a fundamental authority is argued. This article brings a missional-political discourse into discussion with the Scriptures as well as practical theology. It also explores the intersections between the theological theme of social justice from theological and educational interactions.

Authors: Pereira Aires José
Published: July 2023

O principal objetivo deste artigo é fazer uma análise crítica sobre a apropriação do espaço público por agentes privados na cidade de Araguaína - TO, levando-se em consideração as opiniões de 100 pessoas entrevistadas para a referida pesquisa. É uma pesquisa empírica que mostra por meio do gráfico que lhe acompanha que o percentual da população é bastante elevado que não concorda com esse tipo de prática social na cidade. Como se pode observar, por meio do gráfico a maioria dos entrevistados (97%) discorda dessa prática social de produção do espaço urbano de Araguaína. Dessa maneira, apenas 3% concordam. Isto significa dizer que o poder público deveria intervir direta ou indiretamente para que essa prática de ocupação do espaço urbano deixe de existir e/ou pelo menos diminua, como forma de melhorar a qualidade de vida de sua população e dar uma qualidade maior a paisagem urbana à cidade. É um artigo que visa despertar a curiosidade nas pessoas sobre o referido tema e também no poder público no sentido de redirecionar políticas públicas que coadunem com a melhoria do espaço público tão escasso a referida cidade.

Authors: Kuzma Samantha , Kruitwagen Lucas , Arderne Christopher , Goswami Sahana , Goyal Anupriya , Lees Thomas , Thalheimer Lisa , Basak Samrat
Published: July 2023

This paper introduces a machine learning-based model to forecast reservoir water volumes in India. In areas with high water stress, having access to timely information on forecasted water availability could help decision-makers avoid the risk of acute water-driven power outages and advocate for long-term, water-prudent policies and management. This forecast can flag when drought-like conditions threaten water supply, but should not be used to inform reservoir management operations.

Empirical Study of Ricardian Equivalence Hypothesis in Indonesia: The Effect of Budget Deficit on Public Consumption in 1990-2018
Authors: Kurniarahman Anisa , Anas Muhammad
Published: July 2023

Fiscal policy remains a central tool to boost the economy. Indonesia has implemented a deficit fiscal policy for the budget deficit, but Indonesia has not achieved the economic growth target. This reality shows that there is a gap between policy and policy outcomes. This research aims to prove the existence of the Ricardian Equivalence Hypothesis (REH), namely whether the fiscal policy, in this case, the budget deficit, affects public consumption. In addition to analyzing gross domestic product (PDB) as a measure of revenue, government debt, and budget deficits, researchers added variable deposit rates as one of the monetary policy instruments. The research employs Adaptive Expectation Model analysis that shows that in the short and long term, only variable deposit rates had a significant effect on public consumption, meaning that  other variables such as GDP, government debt, and budget deficits had no impact on public consumption in Indonesia for 1990-2018 period. Thus, this study validates the existence of Short Ricaermc both in the short and long term. With this result, the government must change the deficit policy strategy so that the results of productive spending can be enjoyed directly by the people. Some policies that should to maintain interest rates, not do too much debt, develop the country's industry, and country's  deficit budgets to things that directly support the economy

Authors: Brun Élodie , Carrillo Jesús
Published: July 2023

En este trabajo presentamos una revisión de literatura sobre desigualdades globales centradas en los estados como unidad de análisis y a partir del concepto de configuración convivial. Se recorren de manera crítica tres debates académicos relevantes: las desigualdades económicas, cómo estudiarlas y definirlas; el funcionamiento de las organizaciones internacionales, y la calificación del sistema internacional. Esta investigación arroja luz sobre la necesidad de retomar al estado como actor indispensable, sea obstáculo o palanca en los esfuerzos para reducir las desigualdades; del mismo modo, se aclara la necesidad de estudios transdisciplinarios sobre las desigualdades.

Authors: Desai Atul , Desai Kavita , Desai Hemshree , Desai Rutvij , Desai Chirag
Published: July 2023

Sickle cell anaemia is a haemoglobin condition for which the Indian government has set up particular support provisions within the ministry of tribal affairs. Despite epidemiological and recent advances in the treatment of sickle cell anaemia over the past few years, it remains a global concern for everyone. To demonstrate the impact of T-AYU-HM Premium, the long-term treatment outcomes of a patient with sickle cell trait are detailed in this case study. A 35-year-old female patient with a family history of sickle cell anaemia was unable to finish her studies because she had blood transfusions every other month and experienced excruciating pain. Her reported painful crises, treatment compliance, the number of blood transfusions she received, and the number of hospitalizations she needed were all reviewed in this case study. Her past medication and medical history were assessed in 2008 following which the T-AYU-HM Premium treatment was started once she approached the clinic with these complaints. It was noted that the patient followed the prescribed line of treatment, had symptomatic relief from episodic pain, and was able to perform day-to-day tasks. It was noted that the patient only required one blood transfusion and one hospital stay throughout the course of the 15 years of follow-up. This case study would further the understanding and practical application of complementary medicine in the treatment of sickle cell anaemia. The potential for long-term treatment using alternative medical systems may well be established.

Published: July 2023

Hair is one of the essential characteristic features which not only adds beauty to the person but also helps maintain normal physiological functions, especially by excreting sweat through the  Lomakupa, which is considered one of the roots of  Swedavaha Strotas. It also helps in thermoregulation, protection etc. It is  Pitruja Bhava  and is the  Mala  of  Asthidhatu. Depending upon the Hair conditions, one can assess some of the underlying pathological status of the body. Aims & Objectives: Review the literature concerned with  Prakruta  and  Vikruta Lakshnas  of hairs in Ayurvedic classical texts for diagnosis and prognosis of the disease. Material and Methods: Material related to Hair has been collected from Charaka Samhita, Sushruta Samhita, Astanga Samgraha, and Ashtanga Hridaya  along with respective commentaries available and data associated with a topic general at different journals and books. Observations: As  Kesha  is one of the factors which build up a person's personality, Ayurvedic classics state the advantages of hair maintenance. In the present era, changes in lifestyle, food habits, excess use of shampoos, and hair dyes, lack of oil massage to Hair, pollution, stress and strain etc., may be the cause of different types of hair problems like  Khalitya  (Alopecia totalis),  Palitya  (premature greying of Hair) etc. Therefore a proper understanding of  Prakruta Lakshanas  of  Kesha  will help in understanding the  Vaikrutha Avastha  which will thus ease the line of treatment.  Results: Thus,  Kesha  and  Loma  play an essential role in diagnosing the   Prakruta   and   Vaikrutha   Lakshana  and help in the prognosis of the disease.
Applied aspects of Dincharya – The Daily Regimen as per Ayurveda, directing towards health maintenance and disease prevention in present era
Authors: Asutkar Sheetal , Yadav Yogesh , Asutkar Vasudha
Published: July 2023

Introduction- Dinacharya means an ideal daily regimen as per Ayurveda that offers a lifestyle with beneficial physiological and psychological effects for a human body and mind. Why is it called ideal is because it harmonizes balance between body humors(Dosha),tissues(Dhatu) and wastes (Mala) power of digestion(Agni), grooms a pleasant mind, soul and sense organs and offers disease free long life. This is how health is defined by Sushruta Acharya. This idealism needs also to be understood through conceptual justification from Ayurveda. Dinacharya includes activities such waking in Bramha-muhurta (45min before sunrise), brushing teeth-Dantadhawana, Tongue cleaning-Jihva-Nirlekhan, applying corrylium-Anjana, Nasal drops-Nasya, Oilpulling-Kavala, Medicated gargles-Gandusha, Oil massaging-Abhyanga, Exercise-Vyayama, Powder massage-Udvartana, Bathing-Snana, righteous conduct-Sadvrutta and Bhojana-Rules for food consumption etc. Disregarding them have increased the ratio of non-communicable diseases, idiopathic diseases and lifestyle induced diseases like hypertension, diabetes, cardio-vascular diseases etc. Treatment options like anti-hypertensive drugs, anti-diabetic drugs, blood thinning agents etc, are expensive and have adverse reactions. Also invasive methods are preferred by people with fear of obligation for lifelong medications. This is leading to decrease in quality of life. The conceptual and applied explorative understanding of term ‘ideal’ and applying it with regimen of Dinacharya, can be aptly used to prevent above diseases in population today. Aim- To achieve health maintenance and disease prevention by obeying ideal Dinacharya. Objective-To understand the conceptual logic of idealness of a regimen and explore methods of ideal Dinacharya and justify their utility through updated researches. Materials and methods- Collecting and analyzing data from Google Scholar, PubMed, Scopus etc. Results- In Bramha-Muhurta Cortisol hormone is at its peak in 30 minutes post waking, responsible for anti-stress activity, immune-modulation and metabolic enhancement. Kavala/Gandusha decreases the plaque, gingival scores and the number of bacteria. Abhyanga normalises circadian rhythm by action on tryptophan and serotonin levels. Vyayama-studies shows that it is effective in Alzheimer’s disease, decreases blood pressure in HTN patients, decreases HbA1C in type-2 DM patients and decreases cardiovascular disease. Nasya has helped in preventing URTI and allied severe symptoms ex-COVID19, Discussion- weak immunity causes communicable diseases and disturbed metabolism causes non-communicable diseases. Conclusion -Following ideal regimen through Dinacharya activities timely corrects both these health aspects.

Raktamokshana - A Customary Perspective to alleviate De Quervain’s Tenosynovitis w.s.r. to Vatarakta - A Rare Case Study
Authors: Pradeep Kashikar Prathamesh , Chandrakant Babar Sanjay , Archana Kukde , Janesh Gupta
Published: July 2023

The discovery of De Quervain's Tenosynovitis was much acknowledged in classical books in terms of symptoms that could be associated to Vatarakta (Gout), but the disease's nomenclature was only identified in the later period of global modernization. This case study describes a young woman who was pre-diagnosed with De Quervain's condition and treated using the Vatarakta paradigm of treatment protocols, principally raktamokshana (Blood-letting). Raktamokshana with the advent of jalauka (leech) is taken into consideration in the study because Vata and Rakta (blood) are vitiated, which furthers the disease. Rakatamokshana is an excellent treatment option for De Quervain's Tenosynovitis due to its efficiency, simplicity of administration, and safe therapy regimen. With outstanding results for pain management and the restoration of the functioning of the wrist joint, this therapy modality can therefore be recommended for the condition. Need of study: To evaluate the new conceptual idea for treating De Quervain’s Tenosynovitis that is non-invasive and helps to restoring the normal function of corresponding hand and wrist movements. Methodology: Current case report presents a 34-year-old woman with a right-hand dominant job whose primary complaints were pain, morning stiffness, localized burning sensation and swelling at the radial styloid process on the right hand at the base of the thumb for the past two months, who was diagnosed as De Quervain’s Tenosynovitis and was treated with Raktamokshana with Jaluka with two sittings. Conclusion: After first sitting she had 80% relief from symptoms and was totally symptomless after second sitting of Raktamokshana, helping new therapeutic regimen to treat the disease.

The study recommends that:  the University administration should continually train their staff on the relationship between the managers’ self-regulation and leadership Performance; they should employ personnel with high degree of self-regulation skills through conducting interviews with questionnaires that assess these attributes and invest heavily in teamwork activities so that they may have employees who have high degree of self-regulation.
Intent to Quit Among Nurses in Edo State Tertiary Health Institutions: A Cross-Sectional Study
Authors: Ngozi Makata , Sunday F. Ndubuisi , John E. Anieche , Noreen E. Agbapuonwu , Linda C. Odikpo , Ifeoma H. Obidife
Published: July 2023

Purpose: To assess the extent to which nurses working in tertiary health institutions in Edo State intend to quit their job and the potency of their categorical data

Methodology: The study conducted a cross- sectional study design. A proportionate stratified simple random sampling technique was used to recruit 326 participants from selected tertiary health institutions in Edo State. Participants with less than one year of employment and those unavoidably absent during the period of the study were not assessed. Data was collected through the use of self-administered questionnaires, while Statistical Package for Social Science (SPSS) version 25 was utilized for the analysis and the Chi-Square test for hypotheses. The inferential statistics was presented in tables.

Findings: Out of the 326 questionnaires administered, 310 were completely filled out, returned, and analysed. The study revealed that majority of the respondent expressed  moderate level (26.9%) of intent to quit, and there was no significant relationship between the categorical variables (cadre, Nursing qualification, and gender) and intent to quit except for marital status (P.value 0.001), which shows a significant relationship.

Recommendations: The theory of organisational equilibrium requires consistency between the contributions and incentives of employees and those of the organisation. Therefore, having a moderate level of intent to quit among nurses is not a guarantee that a golden opportunity from another hospital within or outside the country will not make them quit. So, it is recommended that the hospital management improve nurses’ welfare and ensure a nurse-friendly environment.

Authors: Venkatasubramanian V , Rayudu B T , Thimmappa K , Hanji Mallikarjun B , Mishra J P , Kadhirvel G
Published: July 2023

The Hon’ble Prime Minister of India has been addressing the nation every month since 2014 on the emerging issues of national and international importance through his Mann Ki Baat programme in radio. The issues related to agriculture and allied sectors covered in the programme have attracted the attention of farmers as well as the change agencies. The importance of Farmers Producer Company (FPOs) and its role in strengthening the farmers’ income were highlighted in Mann Ki Baat. The present study was undertaken to assess the effect of the episodes on the farmers as well as the FPOs. An integrated approach of survey and case study method with ex-post-facto research design was followed. Using purposive sampling, 44 FPOs were selected from across the country covering 40 districts from 19 states for the study. The survey results showed that 98.50 per cent of the FPOs were formed during the PM’s Mann Ki Baat programme (2014-2023), FPOs had the highest shareholders of 4409 and paid-up capital of Rs. 1.31 crore. The business of FPOs covered almost all major crops, seed production of important crops, sale of agricultural inputs especially fertilizers and pesticides, custom hiring and value-added products. Successful cases of entrepreneurship development in FPOs were observed e.g., Puthari Farmers Producer Co Ltd., Kodagu, Karnataka operating at 10000 ha land of plantation crops with a turnover of Rs. 2.20 crore. Due to collective action, there was a reduction in the cost of cultivation by 20-25 per cent. FPOs’ feedback indicated that with Mann Ki Baat episodes most of them became aware about the different policies and schemes. The FPOs are ensuring several benefits to member farmers like acquainting with different government schemes, delivering inputs at doorsteps, reducing cost of cultivation and so on. However, there is a need to strengthen FPOs through further support of government and allied departments. With awareness and increasing access to institutional resources through the enabling environment, being made by Mann Ki Baat, the employment opportunities and livelihood resilience of farmers will be improved.

The paper examines state-level trends in Bihar for determining patterns in farm diversification for the period 1990-91 to 2018-19, using the Simpson Index of Diversification (SID) and ordinal linear regression analysis to analyse the determinants. The study, conducted in the year 2022, reported that the cropping system at the state level is transforming from food grains to different high-value crops and allied farming sectors. The transformation was not uniform across the regions. The SID values have demonstrated how the agricultural economy has been more diverse over time, with some variations in the production of food and non-food crops. The result of multiple regressions has revealed earning members, social work participation, and government donations to be the major determinants of farm diversification, and various constraints were identified using the Garrett ranking method. Hence, the study suggests that policy support for the development of dairy farmers should be more focused on increased cropping intensity, insurance protection, investments in agricultural research and education, and technology development.

In this project, we proposed a home energy management system (HEMS) that includes photovoltaic (PV), electric vehicle (EV), and energy storage systems (ESS). The proposed HEMS fully utilizes the PV power in operating domestic appliances and charging EV/ESS. The surplus power is fed back to the grid to achieve economic benefits. A novel charging and discharging scheme of EV/ESS is presented to minimize the energy cost, control the maximum load demand, increase the battery life, and satisfy the user’s-traveling needs. The EV/ESS charges during low pricing periods and discharges in high pricing periods. In the proposed method, a multi-objective problem is formulated, which simultaneously minimizes the energy cost, peak to average ratio (PAR), and customer dissatisfaction. The multi-objective optimization is solved using binary particle swarm optimization (BPSO). The results clearly show that it minimizes the operating cost from 402.89 cents to 191.46 cents, so that a reduction of 52.47% is obtained. Moreover, it reduces the PAR and discomfort index by 15.11% and 16.67%, respectively, in a 24 h time span. Furthermore, the home has home to grid (H2G) capability as it sells the surplus energy, and the total cost is further reduced by 29.41%.
Çağdaş Muhaddis Şuayb Arnavut un Tahkiklerinde Arap Dili ve Edebiyatına Dair Açıklamaları

Published: July 2023

Şuayb Arnavut (1928-2016), gerek ülkemizde gerekse dünya çapında özellikle hadis alanındaki eserlere yaptığı tahkiklerle bilinen bir ilim adamıdır. Suriye’de doğmuş olmasına rağmen isminden de anlaşılacağı üzere aslen Arnavut olan bu ilim adamının, çoğunluğu hadis alanında olmak üzere çeşitli ilim dallarına ait birçok eserin tahkikinde dolaylı ya da direk olarak katkısı bulunmaktadır. Bunların içinde tek başına yaptığı tahkikler olmakla beraber ekip olarak yaptığı ya da yapılan tahkike danışmalık ettiği eserler de bulunmaktadır. Bir eserin tahkik edilmesinin ilim, muhakkikinin de alim sayılıp sayılmaması tartışmalarının gölgesinde o, ele aldığı eserlerde salt tahkik faaliyetini aşan bir metot takip etmiştir. Örneğin onun tahkiklerinde hadislerin tahrici ve hükmünün verilmesi yanında bir âlimin/ravinin bibliyografisine rastlamak mümkünken; kelimelerin semantik ve fonetik olarak incelenmesi, Arap dili ve edebiyatına dair açıklamalar ve Arap şiirlerinden istişhatlar da bulunmaktadır. Tahkik ettiği eserleri bu şekilde kapsamlı olarak ele alması, onun eserlerinin klasik tahkik tanımının dışına çıkmasına ve temel eserin hacminin aşırı derecede artmasına sebep olmuştur. Örneğin yalın bir şekilde tahkik edilerek altı cilt olarak basılan Ahmed b. Hanbel’in el-Müsned isimli eseri, onun tahkikiyle elli cilt olmuştur. Aslen Arap olmayan birinin bu denli açıklamalarla yaptığı geniş hacimli tahkikler birtakım eleştirilere sebep olmuştur. Bazı eserleri grup halinde tahkik etme faktörünün de eklenmesiyle eleştirinin dozajı daha da artmıştır. Bu çalışmada onun Arap dili ve edebiyatına dair yaptığı açıklamalar incelenip verdiği örnekler üzerinde durulacaktır.

Introduction

The number of reoperations increases with the growing number of operations performed.

Material and methods

The clinical material included a group of 2194 patients treated surgically due to degenerative disease of the lumbar spine; we selected a total of 332 patients who were reoperated, and the indications for reoperation were analysed.

Results

The percentage of patients operated due to adjacent segment disease in the group of patients with stabilization was on average 8.9%.

Conclusions

Indications for stabilizing or preservation of the mobility of the operated segment should provide for the nature of the lesions, and anatomical and surgical conditions.
Gender and Position-Taking in Henrician Verse
Authors: Quoss-Moore Rebecca
Published: July 2023

Tradition, translation, and transcription in Henrician verse functioned together in systems of communally created, coded position-taking. Understanding this system as an extensive network of production and reception in which women took on many roles allows for new readings of Henrician verse that emphasize the interpretive range available to contemporary reading and writing communities. This restoration demasculinizes our approach to Henrician verse not only through a more equitable consideration of gender’s functions in that social world, but also in de-emphasizing individualized self-fashioning or authorial intent in favor of an engagement with communal production and shared sociopolitical engagement. The creation in this system is not of a code, but of systems for coding and recognizing position-taking. These communal systems offer a site for the intersection of reader and writer, of transcriber and composer, and of King and courtier in a space that questions, creates, and troubles power in the Henrician court.
Resistance and Unity in the Douglas-Howard Exchange
Authors: Quoss-Moore Rebecca M.
Published: July 2023

This chapter considers strategies of transcription and dialogue within manuscript creation, focusing on the exchange between Margaret Douglas and Thomas Howard in the Devonshire alongside other sections of the manuscript preserving exchanges wherein writers respond to and riff on one another’s works. The widespread use of such strategies emphasizes the literacies involved in the use of poetry at court; those particular literacies must be established for position-taking verse to circulate successfully via context-dependent codes. The established context of and comparison to translation and tradition allows for greater insight into exactly what transcription offered its authors, while also structuring a framework for considering how and why these three strategies intersected in courtiers’ versified position-taking.
Exhibiting Antonio Canova
Authors: Ferando Christina
Published: July 2023

Exhibiting Antonio Canova: Display and the Transformation of Sculptural Theory argues that the display of Canova’s sculptures in the late eighteenth and early nineteenth centuries acted as a catalyst for discourse across a broad range of subjects. By enshrining his marble figures alongside plaster casts of ancient works, bathing them in candlelight, staining and waxing their surfaces, and even setting them in motion on rotating bases, Canova engaged viewers intellectually, physically, and emotionally. These displays inspired discussions on topics as diverse as originality and artistic production, the association between the sculptural surface, flesh, and anatomy, the relationship between painting and sculpture, and the role of public museums. Beholders’ discussions also shaped the legacy of important sculptural theories. They helped usher in their modern definitions and created the lenses through which we experience and interpret works of art, establishing modern attitudes not just towards sculpture, but towards cultural patrimony in general.
Imagining Sculptural Practice
Authors: Ferando Christina
Published: July 2023

Chapter one, “Imagining Sculptural Practice,” centers on the 1795 exhibition of Canova’s Venus and Adonis in Naples. The sculpture was displayed in a small temple in the garden of Francesco Maria Berio, Marchese di Salza, and the group launched a citywide debate regarding modes of artistic production. Using Canova’s statue as a jumping off point, writers imagined Canova’s working process in detail, from its conceptual origins (“invenzione” or “invention”) to the final carving of the piece (“esecuzione,” or “execution”). Critics not only argued about Canova’s approach to the act of sculpting, but, more importantly, about how best to describe and communicate the sculptor’s process to a broad audience.
