Ensuring the efficiency of the procurement of goods, works, services in the Federal Penitentiary Service of Russia based on seasonal and regional factors
Authors: Kozin Mikhail Nikolaevich
Published: August 2023

The article discusses the importance of taking into account seasonality and regional characteristics when making purchases at the Federal Penitentiary Service of Russia. The seasonal factor has a significant impact on prices and availability of goods, works and services, while regional specifics introduce additional variables into the procurement process. The necessity of taking into account seasonal fluctuations in demand and prices when planning and conducting purchases is indicated. This allows you to organize procurement processes more efficiently, reduce the risk of shortages of goods and services during periods of increased demand, and optimize procurement costs. The importance of taking into account regional peculiarities in procurement is emphasized. Different regions may have their own specific requirements and needs, so adapting procurement procedures to regional specifics allows for more efficient execution of tasks and customer satisfaction. It is concluded that taking into account seasonal and regional factors will improve efficiency, take into account specific conditions and requirements, as well as reduce risks and improve the quality of purchased goods, works and services in the Federal Penitentiary Service of Russia.

Authors: Da Silva Bento Eullir
Published: August 2023

Este artigo teve o objetivo de evidenciar os desafios que os professores indígenas têm para integrar as tecnologias da informação e comunicação na sua prática docente. Como metodologia, adotou-se a revisão bibliográfica e levantamentos de dados por meio de questionários, que foram aplicados de forma online através do Google Docs, além de análise descritiva e qualitativa dos resultados encontrados. Os principais resultados encontrados na pesquisa foi que a maioria dos professores indígenas que fazem o uso das TIC em sua prática docente não exploram de forma significativa o potencial que as tecnologias podem trazer para as suas aulas e favorecer o ensino e aprendizagem dos alunos, e aqueles que não utilizam reconhecem que é importante incluí-los na sua prática docente, desde que professor saiba utilizar essas tecnologias além de apontar que a escola tem que disponibilizar equipamentos tecnológicos para a atuação do professor. Fatores como não possuir habilidades para integrar essas tecnologias na sala de aula, resistência por integrá-las nas suas práticas docentes, falta de capacitação do professor e ausência ou insuficiência de equipamentos foram os principais desafios apresentados com relação a maioria dos professores indígenas no que se refere a integração das TIC em sua prática docente

Published: August 2023

The article's aim is an analysis of the impact of learning gamification tools in higher education institutions on students’ cognitive independence. The study involved the method of expert evaluations, the method of classification of measuring scales, and the method of systematic control and self-control. The survey method and the method of analysing academic performance were also used. The Cronbach’s alpha reliability coefficient was used to check the reliability of the methods. This was followed by comparison of the results of both groups using the Cramer-Welch and χ² tests. Comparing the calculated empirical values of Emp criterion with the critical value of 0.05 = 1.96 at the significance level of 0.05 shows that Temp ≥ Tcr for compared groups. The empirical values of the Emp2 criterion calculated for the control and experimental groups after the experiment can be compared with the critical value of 0.052 = 5.99 at the significance level of 0.05. The results of the study gave grounds to state that learning gamification is effective for the development of students cognitive independence. This is due to the achievement of a high degree of student involvement in the educational process.

Published: August 2023

The great problem before the cotton growing nations of the world is how to meet world's shortage of cotton. The great portion of the cotton is supplied by the United States of America, which produces 10 to 16 millions bales annually. India standing second in rank produces 5 to 6 million bales. This position is of utmost importance to India, as cotton, next to food grains is the important crop with which the welfare of India is most intimately connected. Hence, it is the duty of the plant- breeder to increase the out put of cotton in all desirable ways but increased production has certain limitations.

This breed is found in large numbers in Karachi, Hydera- bad (Scind) and along the valley of the Indus. Scindhe is one of the purest and most distinct of Indian breeds of cattle. It is one of the best breeds of Dairy cattle in this country which can be obtained in fairly large numbers. In its own district Scindhe is a dual purpose animal. The cow is a good milker and the bullock, although not so swift or agile in his movements, as that of certain other beeds, is a steady worker. However it is as a milch herd that the breed is known outside Karachi and it should be developed as such. The purity of the breed is largely due to the iso- lated nature of the district in which the cattle have been bred for centuries.
A Note on Hagari Cottons.
Authors:   Tamil Nadu Agricultural University Coimbatore  641 003 Tamilnadu, V SUBBANNACHAR
Published: August 2023

The most important item of agricultural improvement which has been successfully attempted by the Madras Agricultural Department in the Bellary District, is the improvement of local cottons of indigenous origin. These were found to be for the most part of poor yielding capa- city and of low ginning percentage, while the lint was fairly rough and short. The problem, at first, was to find out a type of cotton better adapted to the needs of the grower and the spinner alike. With this end in view, the department carried out at the Hagari Experimental Station, near Bellary, a series of trials on both exotic and extra- provincial types of cotton for about four to five seasons from 1907. Egyptian, Afghan, Broach, Surat and Kumpta were the important ones that were tried here. Due to one reason or other, the attempt at acclimatization of exotic and extra-provincial varieties ended in a failure. As a result of this experience and knowledge, it was decided to concentrate effort upon the improvement of the existing indigenous varieties for the production of a long stapled cotton, suitable to the black cotton soils of the Bellary district.
Land Rights in Bengal

Published: August 2023

During the debate on the Bengal Tenancy Amend- ment Bill of 1928, the Honorable Member in charge of the Bill (Sir P. C. Mitter) said:-"Rightly or wrongly, from 1793 onwards the zamindars have been the proprietors of the soil." And again "Today what is the legal position. of the Zamindar and the Raiyat? In 1793 the Zamindar was made the proprietor of the soil." Anybody who reads the discussions on the Amendment Bill cannot but be sur- prised at the conflicting opinions expressed on this impor- tant and fundamental matter. It is desirable that the con- fusion of thought should be removed and we should have clear ideas about land rights in Bengal.

Published: August 2023

It is a longstanding complaint, ever since Agricultural Colleges were started and Agricultural Departments began to work in India, that very few of the passed students. of these Colleges have taken to private farming, and along with the complaint the usual explanation has also been adduced that the main reason for the disinclination on the part of students to take to farming was due to the fact that the students did not really belong to what is popularly known as the Agricultural classes. The Term "Agricul- tural classes" covers a wide range It may mean those who own large estates and extensive lands or those who own small holdings or it may mean tenants or agricultural labourers. The last class is generally the illiterate class and the first class consists of Zamindars and rich inen, some of them not educated enough, and some of them" inclining to an easy life, or with other avocations to engage their attention. The men with small holdings and the tenant farmers are generally able to make some thing out of their lands, as they live on the spot and attend to all the worries and troubles of a cultivator as they arise from day to day.

Published: August 2023

While the plant Breeder is engaged in evolving strains of Cotton that would give increased yields, and the Agriculturist in devising the best methods of tilth and nurture calculated to provide for them optimum con- ditions for growth, the Chemist supplies them with plant food best suited for producing the maximum yields. But the cotton plant, like many other crops, is subject to the attacks of various pests and diseases, which often take a heavy toll of the crop, so that the labours of the Breeder, the Chemist and the Agriculturist are liable to be greately wasted thereby. It is the function of the Entomologist and the Mycologist to study the various pests and diseases and devise measures for counteracting their injuring effects in the most economical and efficient way. It is the pur- pose of this paper to give a short account of the present position of the Entomological Section of this Institute in regard to the control of the major pests of Cotton in South India.

South Indian village life is noted for its simplicity and unruffled nature. Changes of Governors or Viceroys, a civil war in Afghanistan, or even flood havoc in other parts of the country, do not have any effect on the calm atmosphere of the village. The old routine is followed in its never changing rigidity and sequ- ence. The wants are few, necessities little, and the village. folk are never in a perturbed or busy state over anything except the problems affecting their own time-honoured cus- toms or regulations. The arrival of a Government official in the village is an event of some importance and except for this and festival days when the village deity may be propitiated, the primitive calm and serenity of the village is rarely disturbed.

Published: August 2023

The theory of chemical graphs is a field of mathematical chemistry that applies graph theory to the mathematical modeling of chemical phenomena. Topological index is a numerical descriptor of a molecule; it is found that there is strong correlation between the properties of chemical compounds and their molecular structure based on a specific topological feature of the corresponding molecular graph. The S-index of a graph is defined as the sum of five of the degree of vertices of a graph. In this paper, we introduce a new invariant of a graph which is identified as S-coindex. We study some basic mathematical properties and different types of graph operations like as Join, Cartesian Product, Composition, Tensor Product, Strong Product, Disjunction, Symmetric Difference, Corona Product of graphs.

Published: August 2023

Low electricity output of microbial fuel cells (MFCs) has continued to limit their large-scale applications, as bioenergy sources. Thus effects of surface area of anode (0.005 to 0.015 m2), surface area of cathode (0.005 to 0.015 m2) and volume of substrate in anode chamber (750 to 1500 ml), on MFCs voltage output, were optimized. Replicated Box Behnken Design (Minitab) gave 30 runs. After 25 days operation, average voltage generated by MFCs ranged from 7.76±0.28 mV to 34.32±3.2 mV, across 10 kΩ. Response Optimizer (Minitab) indicated 0.011 m2 as optimal surface area of anode, 0.015 m2 for cathode and 1500 mL for volume of substrate in anode chamber, with estimated maximum voltage of 41.83 mV, when used. This gives 1:1.3:136,363 ratio for surface area of anode, surface area of cathode and volume of substrate in anode, which could be useful in scaling up the device. On application of these optima, highest and lowest average voltages of 54.5±3.2 mV and 20.1±2.7 mV were generated. This maximum voltage was 30.3% higher than the estimate by Response Optimizer, and 58.8% higher than the highest average voltage recorded without optimization. Again, the lowest average voltage (20.13±2.7 mV) obtained after optimization was 159.4% higher than the lowest voltage (7.76±0.28 mV) recorded without optimization. BOD of piggery wastewater, used as substrate, reduced by 18.9%, while COD declined by 31.4%. Diverse Gram-positive and Gram-negative bacterial isolates were identified in the wastewater. Therefore, Box Behnken design is useful optimization of factors, to boost the output of MFCs.

Tumors in cheek and oral commissure are not uncommon and free flaps are more acceptable solutions for large defects after tumor excision. Flap inset as the last stage of surgery and reconstruction has its importance. Aesthetically, free flap inset usually is not what patient expects, due to large or bizarre shapes. Every deformity in this area is significant and unpleasant. There are numerous solutions to refinement in flap inset. Authors tried to present their modification named " Fortune Cookie" in this flaps as folding transferred flap and de-epithelialization of folded part and approximating raw surfaces together. By this way, the final flap has more smooth surface and the pedicle is preserved.

Published: August 2023

Background: Obese patients have a body weight that exceeds normal, then there are disorders of the liver, consumption of a high- fat diet, and there are inflammatory factors that can trigger alveolar bone damage and cause periodontitis. Objective: To explain the mechanism by which obesity can cause alveolar bone damage in patients with chronic periodontitis. Research Methods: literature sources used in the preparation of articles through several databases (Pubmed, Embase, Scopus, Scient Direct, and CINAHL) with descriptions related to alveolar bone damage in patients with chronic periodontitis due to obesity. Results: Inflammatory cytokines in obese patients are associated with high C-reactive protein (CRP) levels and will induce prostaglandin E2 (PGE2) and matrix metalloproteinase (MMP) which can trigger osteoclast activity. PGE2 will induce osteoblasts to produce receptor activator of nuclear factor k β -ligand (RANKL). RANKL and receptor activator of nuclear factor kappa (RANK) will activate osteoclastogenesis. The regulation of RANKL with RANK by osteoprotegerin (OPG) will affect the activation and differentiation of osteoclasts and the damage of the periodontal ligament that cause alveolar bone destruction. Conclusion: Alveolar bone damage in patients with chronic periodontitis due to obesity that occurs due to disorders of the liver and a high-fat diet that affects bone metabolism and causes a local inflammatory response. This obesity condition can eventually exacerbate the occurrence of alveolar bone damage by increasing CRP levels which stimulate MMP production. This review is corresponding to the Sustainable Development Goal No. 3, ensuring healthy life and improve the welfare of all populations of all ages.

Objective The economic hardship brought by the coronavirus disease-2019 (COVID-2019) pandemic has caused mental health problems among people of different socioeconomic status (SES). As social support helps to buffer these problems, we investigated the association between job loss related to COVID-19 and depression, anxiety, and suicidal thoughts; the differences in the effects according to SES; and the mediating effects of social support.Methods The effects of COVID-19-related job loss on depression, anxiety, and suicidal thoughts among 1,364 people were investigated through semi-structured and self-administered questionnaires: Patient Health Questionnaire–9, General Anxiety Disorder–7, and the Functional Social Support Questionnaire. Logistic regression and subgroup analyses were performed to assess the association between job loss and mental health status, and the moderating effects of income and educational levels. Moreover, the mediating effects of perceived social support on the association between job loss and depression, anxiety, and suicidal thoughts were analyzed.Results COVID-19-related job loss increased the risk of depression and suicidal thoughts. Adults with lower income and education level were at higher risk of depression, anxiety, and suicidal thoughts; perceived social support level had significant mediating effects on the association between job loss and depression/anxiety; and income level had significant moderating effects on this mediating pathway.Conclusion COVID-19-related job loss were likely to be significantly associated with negative mental health outcomes, especially among individuals with low income and education levels. As social support had buffering effects on such outcomes, related government policies in cooperation with the governance of communities and stakeholders must be prepared.

Der Begriff der Traumatisierung hat eine solche Reichweite und Heterogenität bekommen, dass es geboten scheint, spezifische Bedeutungsdimensionen näher zu skizzieren. Extreme Traumatisierung reißt eine Lücke in das Kontinuum der psychischen Repräsentierbarkeit der Erfahrung, weder Repräsentationen noch Narrationen werden erzeugt. Stattdessen entsteht eine repräsentationale Leere, sodass das, was geschehen ist, nicht mitgeteilt oder weitergegeben werden kann. Es gibt keine Internalisierung, keine Fähigkeit, die Erfahrung zu symbolisieren und zu subjektivieren. Die daraus resultierende tiefe Spaltung der Psyche betrifft nicht nur den Einzelnen, es tut sich auch im sozialen Raum eine tiefe Kluft auf zwischen den symbolischen Universen derjenigen, die solchen Grauen ausgesetzt waren, und derjenigen, die das nicht waren. Die therapeutische Praxis ist eng mit der Wiederherstellung eines sozialen Gewebes, die drei Generationen und mehr brauchen kann, verbunden.

Authors: Donina Roksana Leonidovna , Stetskaya Lyubov Antonovna
Published: August 2023

The paper aims to develop methodological recommendations for conducting a study and performance interpretation of piano works by old masters using D. Scarlatti’s creative work as an example. The scientific novelty of the research is accounted for by the fact that the attention of music scholars is primarily focused on the theoretical aspects of studying D. Scarlatti’s creative work, while the practical issues related to the methodology of study and the peculiarities of the performance interpretation of the composer’s clavier music heritage remain overlooked. As a result of the research, the authors come to the conclusion that the task of the teachers studying D. Scarlatti’s works with their students lies in the need to get the students to capture a “living breath” in the music of the past that was innovative and original for the time of its creation in their performance interpretation.
Soviet Symbols and Language Use in Three Hungarian Feature Films Made in the Early 1950s
Authors: Ákos Gocsál
Published: August 2023

The paper aims to reveal Soviet symbols in Hungarian feature films made in the early 1950s. Using the films “Civil a pályán” (Civilians on the Field, 1951), “Becsület és dicsőség” (Honor and Glory, 1951) and “Dalolva szép az élet” (Singing Makes Life Beautiful, 1950) as examples, the work analyses the details appearing in the feature films that may be in some way associated with the Soviet Union (internal and external spaces; people’s dress; objects other than pieces of decoration; verbal references and songs; a Soviet visitor; other aspects related to everyday life). The author identifies forms of address used by the characters indicating the relationship between various groups (namely, communist leaders, workers, saboteurs). Scientific novelty lies in proving that there is strong Soviet influence in the analysed feature films, since not only visible Soviet symbols, but also verbal references and even a case of a Soviet worker appearing in person were discovered. The research findings showed that forms of address in the feature films under consideration helped to clearly define a hierarchy in the depicted society, highlighting the importance of the community of workers and reflecting an awareness of collectivism.
Chamber and Vocal Creative Work of Joseph Haydn. Part 2
Authors: Tarasov Sergei Vasilevich
Published: August 2023

The purpose of this research paper is devoted to the still little-studied problem of identifying the relations between the vocal and instrumental factors in Haydn’s music. In the paper the vocal cycle «VI ORIGINAL CANZONETTAS» is analyzed. It comprises the combination of independent and finished by the form of songs subordinate to the same artistic design. The composer follows the basic principle of the integration of parts into a cycle – the principle of music character contrast – and dramatically unites separate sketches, moods and images with the same author’s point of view. The success of this cycle was due to lyrics chosen by the composer. The novelty of the research lies in the determination of Haydn’s vocal music specificity characterized by rather complex relations of text and music in terms of both content and expression. As a result, it is proved that the maturity of expression appeared in Haydn’s style under the influence of fresh London impressions and is clearly observed in English songs. This is evident in the use of the musical language for composing the works of the other genres in London (primarily, symphonies). So the composer raises the vocal genre to a qualitatively different stage leading directly to Schubert.

Authors: Tuminskaya Ol’ga Anatol’evna
Published: August 2023

The paper aims to consider staged documentalism as a tendency of the Soviet era to “report” on high achievements and merits when fulfilling the set national economic tasks.

As a result of the study, the researcher comes to the conclusion that “staged documentalism” was a method of recording Soviet reality that painted a general picture of people’s cultural life in the USSR era, the object of which were the types of the XX century intelligentsia, including the provincial intelligentsia.
