According to the results of observations at the seismic stations of the Carpathian region of Ukraine in 2022, the main parameters of 50 earthquakes in the range of energy classes KR=5.7÷13.7 were obtained. The parameters of seismometric equipment at active seismic stations are given. A catalog of earthquakes, their distribution by regions and energy classes, a map of epicenters, graphs of seismic energy release, and the number of earthquakes in the region by month are presented. A brief description of the seismicity of certain seismically active areas of the Carpathian region is given. The total energy allocated to the region was ΣЕ=5.06·1013 J, which is higher than last year’s level of ΣЕ=3.13·1012 J. This year, increased seismic activity was observed in the Vrancea Mountains, where 20 earthquakes of energy class KR=9.1÷13.7 were recorded. Their total seismic energy was ΣE=5.06·1013J. The foci of the Vrancea earthquakes are concentrated at a depth of h=80÷152 km (18 events) and h=20 km (2 events). 10 earthquakes with energy class KR=5.8÷8.0 were registered in Transcarpathia. Their total seismic energy was ΣE=2.78·108 J. The strongest was recorded on March 28 with KR=8.0 at 05h01m at a depth of h=2.4 km. For the past seven years, Transcarpathia has been practically in a seismic lull. On the territory of Bukovyna this year, there is also a decrease in seismic acti­vity compared to 2021. A total of 9 earthquakes with energy class KR=6.9÷8.4 and total seismic energy ΣЕ=8.41·108 J were registered here. The foci of earthquakes are in the earth’s crust at a depth of h=1.8÷15 km. In seismically active areas such as the Southern Carpathians, Transylvania, and Bacau, only one earthquake was recorded in 2022, while no event was recorded in the Kryšana and Banat regions. The regional Carpathian hodograph was used to determine the main parameters of earthquakes in Transcarpathia, and the Jeffreys-Bullen hodograph was used for earthquakes in the Vrancea zone and six other regions.

The paper reports the issues of the medical assistance of students attending secondary medical educational institutions in Volgograd and the Volgograd region. It has been found that the regional regulatory documents contain no unified requirements related to students’ health protection. Primary medical care provision to students is ensured by pediatric (under the age of 18 years) and adult outpatient clinics (over the age of 18 years) of Volgograd and the Volgograd region in accordance with the concluded contracts. Furthermore, the students have a mandatory medical check-up before the beginning of practical training in accordance with the Order № 29N of the Ministry of Health of the Russian Federation dated January 28, 2021. At the same time, there is no dynamic monitoring of the students’ health status during the educational process. It has been shown that none of the secondary medical educational institutions of Volgograd and the Volgograd region conducts assessment and monitoring of occulational risk factors corresponding to the studied specialty. It is necessary to develop the system for informational communication of medical professional with medical institutions conducting preventive medical examinations and routine check-ups of students. Furthermore, it is important to consider the features of the chosen profession taking into account potential risk factors of the learning process and future professional activity.

Physical inactivity has become a major health concern in Malaysia. It is associated with several cardiovascular diseases, chronic diseases, and even death. This study aims to assess the level of physical activity (PA) among students of Universiti Teknologi MARA Perlis. A cross-sectional study was carried out among 167 students within the age group of 20 to 27 years old. The Malaysian version of the Global Physical Activity Questionnaire (GPAQ) was used to measure the PA level. The results were expressed in MET-minutes/week (metabolic equivalent). More than half of the students (59%) were engaged in high physical activity per week, while 40% were engaged in moderate PA. A low level of physical activity was reported by 1% of the students. There was a significant contrast in the level of PA between genders, where the male was found to engage more in total PA than the female (p = 0.001). Sports Science students’ engagement was significantly higher in the total of PA (4600.13 MET) than in Business Administration students (3354.05 MET) (p = 0.002). There was a weak relationship between METS and gender (r = - 0.233, p = 0.002) and between MET and faculty (r = -0.287, p = 0.002), respectively. The present result indicates that most of the university students were physically active, where males were most active compared to females. However, a negative relation was found between the MET and gender or faculty, respectively. In essence, further research is necessary to identify the physical activity determinants among these populations.

Published: March 2024

The development of a web-based stock management system aims to provide effective control over sales and stock levels for the food and beverage industry. The web-based application provides a platform for staff members and business proprietors to effectively modify and manage data related to stock and transactions. However, it is apparent that bakery enterprises exhibit a shared approach in their stock management procedures. The baker has a responsibility to manually update the stock availability on the WhatsApp group following each production. In order to maintain continuous production, it is imperative for management to take proactive measures by initiating the procurement of fresh stock from the vendor when the existing stock nears depletion. One potential resolution is the implementation of a streamlined stock management system that effectively addresses the needs of both bakers and managers. The objective of this project is to meet the demand for effective stock management among bakery store owners by offering a user-friendly and dependable system. The nStock system has been intentionally developed with the objective of effectively overseeing the procurement of raw materials from suppliers and accurately tracking the stock allocated for bakery production. The solution aims to employ Telegram bot services as a mechanism for alerting the management in the event that the stock levels fall below the predetermined reorder threshold. The approach employed by the project is in accordance with the Waterfall Model of System Development Life Cycle (SDLC). A functionality test is conducted prior to implementation in order to verify its compliance with the specified design and functional requirements. Notably, each participant provided the system with a "pass" rating, indicating its successful functioning and meeting their expectations.

Authors: Hastrdlová Šárka
Published: March 2024

This article gives brief feedback on the application of a flipped classroom approach to the Czech language course for foreigners within the summer semester 2022/2023 at the Technical University of Liberec. It is generally known that the flipped classroom approach is an instructional strategy that involves reversing the traditional roles of in-class lectures and homework. It can offer many potential benefits, such as an active way of learning, enhanced student engagement, and immediate feedback. However, not all subjects or topics may be suitable for the flipped approach, and it may not be the best fit for every teacher or student. Additionally, access to technology and resources outside the classroom can be a potential challenge for some students. In the article, the author first briefly describes the flipped classroom method and then shows its advantages and disadvantages. Finally, the example of the implementation of the flipped classroom method in the Czech language course for foreigners is given and analyzed together with a brief survey of opinions on the flipped classroom method.
Are University Students Willing to Communicate in English Language Courses?
Authors: Jelínková Jaroslava
Published: March 2024

From a pedagogical-psychological point of view, communication in teaching occurs between a teacher and a student or between students themselves. It contributes to the activation of internal mental processes, not only in participating individuals, but it benefits the entire class as a whole. Moreover, in the teaching of a foreign language, communication is not only the means of communication, but it also becomes the content of the lesson. Students verify their knowledge and improve their speaking skills through the meaningful use of the foreign language. The willingness to communicate construct answers the question of why some people are more inclined to share their thoughts, knowledge, and opinions verbally more than others. In the presented research, I investigated students’ willingness to communicate in English language courses on a sample of university students (n = 350) using a quantitative questionnaire survey. The overall results indicate that students are generally willing to communicate in English language classes, i.e. the overall reported level of willingness to communicate among students was high, and the results of individual speech skills did not indicate significant differences. However, a closer look at individual speaking skills shows that students report a higher willingness to communicate for items that describe receptive speaking skills.

Technology will Save Financial Advice
Authors: Daley Nat , Hunt Katherine
Published: March 2024

Advice provided by financial planners has the potential to impact the financial and emotional well-being of clients and is particularly important in a world struggling to deal with COVID-19. Despite the outcomes of quality financial planning relationships, there is little direct evidence to support the importance of technology in the financial planning setting, Previous research has emphasised the importance of technology in other fields, although not in relation to financial planning. This research investigates the impact of technology on financial advice value, measured in a survey of clients and financial planners regarding factors of technology, communication, trust, and investment returns. A questionnaire was developed based on previously validated scales. Ratings for the factors were compared between clients and financial planners, with financial planners found to underestimate their client’s confidence in their process, and also underestimate the importance of communication to clients, The results indicate that clients value investment returns above the financial planning relationship, and that financial planners value the relationship above investment returns, This research contributes to the financial planning and technology literature, provides a foundation for future research, and provides support for the importance of communication and technology in professional relationships such as in financial planning.
Efficient Asset Allocation for Individual Investors in the ETF World

Published: March 2024

Research has shown that investment success is largely driven by asset allocation. With the dramatic growth in number of exchange-traded funds (ETFs), individual investors have gained access to a wicie variety of funds including funds representing non-traditional asset classes, This proliferation of ETFs allows investors to take advantage of high return alternatives while maintaining an asset allocation that is well diversified. This paper explores the potential for creating effcient portfolios using ETFs exclusively. We use price data from 2007 to 2017 for thirty-four ETFs to demonstrate that a portfolio of ETFs based on an average optimal weight allocation has a higher Sharpe ratio than 85 percent of the ETFs studied. Constructing effcient portfolios based on the average of optimized weights improves this portfolio’s returns by 370 basis points and increases the Sharpe ratio significantly as compared with ex ante mean-variance optimization. We conclude that investors can benefit from using average optimized weights in building portfolios made up primarily of ETFs.

The fly's body has many hairs, especially on its legs. The hairs on the legs contain a kind of adhesive liquid so that small objects stick easily. Diseases transmitted by flies depend on the species. This study aims to determine the fluctuations and differences in the number of Musca spp. in a different environment on a pig farm in Denpasar City. This type of research is an observational study. The sample for this study were Musca sp. flies in two pig farms in Denpasar City. Samples were taken every day for 4 weeks at 09.00 – 14.00. Data analysis used the Wilcoxon test. The results showed that the Musca spp. found in pig farms in Ubung Kaja Village, North Denpasar, as many as 358 pigs and in Sidakarya Village, South Denpasar, as many as 981 pigs. The population of flies on pig farms in Ubung Kaja Village, North Denpasar and Sidakarya Village, South Denpasar, during 4 weeks of observation, fluctuated with the highest decrease in the 4th week and while the increase occurred in the 2nd week in North Denpasar, while in South Denpasar there was an increase in the 2nd week. up to 3. Based on the results of the study, it can be concluded that the population of flies on pig farms in Ubung Kaja Village, North Denpasar and Sidakarya Village, South Denpasar, during 4 weeks of observation, fluctuated with an increase occurring in the 3rd week in North Denpasar, while in South Denpasar there was an increase in the 2nd to 2nd week. 3. There is no difference in the number of Musca spp. in a different environment on a pig farm in Denpasar City. From these results, it can be suggested that pig farms should further improve environmental sanitation in their pens and surroundings by disposing of waste in properly managed bins and implementing good biosecurity. The research can be continued by increasing the number of places studied at different seasons so that the fluctuations of flies in the rainy and dry seasons can be determined.

Cocoa is one of the plantation commodities that has an important role in economic activities in Indonesia. Cocoa is also one of Indonesia's export commodities which is quite important as a foreign exchange earner besides oil and gas. Indonesia is the world's third largest cocoa producer and exporter after Ghana and Ivory Coast. The development of cocoa exports in 2015-2019 has a fairly volatile pattern. In 2015 the total export volume of cocoa was 105.15 thousand tons and in 2017 it increased by 270.17 thousand tons. The results of this study indicate that partially the US Dollar exchange rate variable has a negative and significant effect on the volume of cocoa exports in Indonesia 2015-2019. The price variable has a positive and significant effect on the volume of cocoa exports in Indonesia 2015-2019 and the variable amount of cocoa production has no effect on the volume of cocoa exports in Indonesia 2015-2019. Simultaneously the US Dollar exchange rate, price and amount of cocoa production have a significant effect on the volume of cocoa exports in Indonesia 2015-2019 and the variable amount of cocoa production has no effect on the volume of cocoa exports in Indonesia 2015-2019. This analysis shows that the variable that has the dominant influence on the volume of cocoa exports in Indonesia from 2015-2019 is the price variable.

Orchidaceae is widely distributed on Earth with major distribution in the tropical regions, including Indonesia. Seram Island located in Maluku Province Indonesia has a high potential to become a habitat for various species of Australasian orchids. Orchid diversity tends to be related to altitude variations in the area that indirectly contribute to creating microclimate variations. One area on Seram Island with various variations in altitude is Mount Binaiya within the Manusela National Park area. This study aims to identify orchid species found on Mount Binaiya. The exploration method was used on the northern trekking route of Mount Binaiya, divided into Waisamata, Kanikeh, Waiansela, and Waihuhu areas. Based on the result, 47 species of orchids were obtained, which belong to the subfamilies Epidendroideae (35 species), Orchidoideae (11 species), and Vanilloideae (1 species). Based on the life form, 25 species were epiphytes, while 22 species were terrestrial orchids. Waisamata had the highest number of species (23 species), followed by Waiansela (14 species), Waihuhu (14 species), and Kanikeh (8 species). Of all these species, some that need further research are Corybas spp., Cyrtosia nana, Pterostylis papuana, Glomera papuana, and Mediocalcar pygmaeum. Some species are new records in their distribution or rediscoveries of existing records.

Mengetik merupakan kegiatan yang selalu dilakukan beberapa kalangan masyarakat. Salah satu parameter untuk mengetik dengan efisien adalah meminimalkan pergerakan jari untuk mengetik suatu huruf, yang disebut sebagai travel distance. Metode yang dapat digunakan untuk mencari layout keyboard dengan travel distance terkecil secara efisien adalah dengan men-generate layout menggunakan algoritma genetika. Dengan menggunakan algoritma genetika, setiap huruf pada keyboard akan berperan sebagai gen, layout keyboard berperan sebagai kromosom, dan kumpulan beberapa layout keyboard sebagai populasi. Setiap kromosom akan dilakukan kawin silang dengan kromosom lain dengan mengambil beberapa gen dari masing-masing kromosom lalu menggabungkannya menjadi kromosom baru. Cara yang digunakan untuk menentukan kromosom mana yang digunakan untuk melakukan kawin silang dapat menggunakan travel distance dari tiap kromosom. Semakin kecil travel distance, maka semakin besar kemungkinan kromosom tersebut untuk dikawinsilangkan. Keyboard yang paling banyak digunakan saat ini masihlah keyboard dengan layout bernama “QWERTY”. Saat dibandingkan untuk mengetik data kalimat berbahasa indonesia dari TED-Multilingual-Parallel-Corpus, keyboard QWERTY memiliki travel distance yang lebih besar sekitar 9.311,735 dibandingkan dengan layout keyboard yang didapat dari metode algoritma genetika sebesar 5.747,246, sekitar 62% lebih besar.

Lemna sp. is one of the local raw materials that can be used to substitute fish flour and soybean meal in fish feed formulation because its protein contain. However, protein plant-based in fish feed formulation need additional enzyme (exogenous) such as Non starch polysaccharides (NSP) enzyme which able to increase feed digestibility. The aim of this study is to determine the effect of NSP enzyme to Lemna sp. flour in feed formulation for kissing gouramy’s growth and feed efficiency. This research has been conducted at the Experimental Pond Laboratory, Aquaculture Study Program and Laboratory of Chemical and Microbiology of Agricultural Products, Department of Agricultural Technology, Faculty of Agriculture, Sriwijaya University. Juvenile kissing gourami 4±0,5 cm in length were used and culture in certain condition which was temperature 25-27 °C, pH 6, dissolved oxygen > 2.5 mgL-1 and ammonia <0.1 mgL-1. The Rovabio Excel AP10 T-Flex were used as NSP enzyme. Completely Randomized Design (CRD) was used with 4 treatments (Tn) and 3 replications, namely the addition of Lemna sp. flour 0% without enzyme (T0), addition of Lemna sp. flour 0% with enzyme (T1), addition of Lemna sp. flour 5% without enzyme (T2), addition of Lemna sp. flour 5% with enzyme (T3). NSP enzyme dose is 1 g/kg feed material. The results showed that T3 gave the best results with absolute weight growth 0.91 g, absolute length growth 0.63 cm, specific weight growth rate 1.35% day-1, specific length growth rate 0, 41% day-1, survival 100%, and feed efficiency 28.59%.
