Tackling incivilities in big cities

The theme of governing anti-social behaviour and incivilities in the public space became more important on the policy and research agenda over the last twenty years. This article describes the law on incivilities in Belgium, namely the ‘administrative communal sanctions’ (GAS). This law is studied in a broader context of contemporary crime control and its organizing patterns. The development of the politics of behaviour can be explained by different characteristics of the period referred to as the late modernity. In the dissertation ‘A culture of control?’ (Devroe 2012) we studied the application and the concrete strategies behind the governance of incivilities on a national and on a city level. The incivility law broadened the competences of the Mayor and the city council especially in the completion of anti social behaviour and public disorder problems in his/her municipality. Instead of being dealt with on a traditional judicial way by the police magistrate, the Mayor can, by this law; himself lay on fines until maximum 250 euro. We mention ‘city republics’ as this punitive sanction became a locally assigned matter, which means that one municipality differs from another in their ‘incivility policy’. Due to the split up of competences of the Belgian state arrangements of 1988, each municipality finds itself framed in different political and organisational executive realities. In this view, Mayors can be called ‘presidents’ of their own municipality, keeping and controlling the process of tackling incivilities as their main responsibility and determining what behaviour had to be controlled and punished and what behaviour can be considered as normal decent behaviour in the public space. Problems of creating a ‘culture of control’, creating inequality for the poor, the beggars and the socially ‘unwanted’ can arise, especially in big cities.
Prosody and focus recognition in Spanish
Authors: Gabriel Christoph , Heidinger Steffen
Published: February 2025

At the interface between information structure and prosody, discourse-pragmatic categories are mapped onto prosodic structures and vice versa. The Focus Prominence Rule (FPR), which stipulates that the nuclear stress must fall within the focus domain, is considered one of the cross-linguistically most stable principles governing this mapping. However, FPR violations have received only little attention. To determine whether they occur during production or perception, we combine (i) the results of an earlier perception experiment on Argentinean Spanish showing that in about 30% of the stimuli the focus was not duly recognized and (ii) a detailed prosodic analysis of 30 lexically identical [S]-FV-dO-iO stimuli used in that study. The following parameters are considered: first, voice quality in terms of the degree of post-focal devoicing; second, the alignment of the focal pitch accent’s high target (H) and the following low target (L), the scaling of H, and the steepness of the subsequent fall; third, the duration of the stressed syllable of the focused XP in relation to the following stressed syllable. A Relative Weight Analysis shows that duration and alignment account for 80% of variability in accuracy rate, speaking in favor of the assumption that FPR violations mainly occur in production.

Geometria nas aulas de matemática no ensino médio das escolas indígenas de palmeira dos índios
Authors: Silva Beatriz Machado da , Souza Elvis Gomes
Published: February 2025

O presente trabalho é resultado de um estudo de caso, que tem como objetivo geral compreender como o ensino da geometria é contextualizado no Ensino Médio de uma escola indígena de Palmeira dos Índios, Alagoas. Assim, esse trabalho se caracteriza como exploratório, desenvolvendo-se a partir do seguinte problema: de que forma a geometria é contextualizada em uma escola indígena de Palmeira dos Índios? Para tanto, buscamos aporte teórico nos estudos de Masola; Vieira; Allevato (2016), os quais defendem que os conhecimentos específicos de uma determinada área deve ser transpostos para o campo pedagógico, ou seja, (re)contextualizados; recorremos a Mendes (2013), por considerar relevante seus estudos sobre níveis de contextualização do ensino da matemática e Proença (2021) por defender o uso do jogo como estratégia de desenvolvimento de modelos matemáticos. Contudo, os resultados desta pesquisa demonstram que o ensino da geometria tende a apresentar uma organização didática clássica tradicional, marcada pela dificuldade de trabalhar em uma perspectiva intercultural. Embora os povos indígenas façam pinturas geométricas em seus corpos e no artesanato, não raro, desconsidera-se a possibilidade de trabalhar o conhecimento geométrico contextualizado a partir da arte produzida em sua comunidade, prevalecendo como referência pedagógica a cultura eurocêntrica.

A taquicardia supraventricular (TSV) é um grupo de arritmias caracterizadas por uma frequência cardíaca acima de 100 batimentos por minuto, comum em indivíduos com corações estruturalmente normais. Nos Estados Unidos, a prevalência é de 0,17% na população adulta, com diagnóstico frequentemente feito através de monitoramento eletrocardiográfico. A ablação por cateter destaca-se como uma opção terapêutica promissora, especialmente eficaz em casos de taquicardia de reentrada nodal atrioventricular (TAVN) e taquicardia atrial, superando a terapia medicamentosa em eficácia e qualidade de vida dos pacientes. Contudo, a subutilização deste tratamento persiste, com atrasos de até 14 anos entre o diagnóstico e a intervenção, devido a fatores como subestimação dos sintomas e medo de complicações. A educação contínua de médicos e pacientes sobre os benefícios da ablação por cateter é essencial. Em conclusão, a ablação por cateter deve ser mais amplamente discutida e considerada como uma opção de tratamento de primeira linha, conforme as diretrizes internacionais.

Authors: Faot Flávia Kruk , Souza Cynthia Venâncio de
Published: February 2025

Este trabalho tem como objeto de estudo a formação de professores no contexto internacionalizado, mediante uma perspectiva intercultural crítica e com foco na garantia do direito à educação de qualidade social. Para tanto, objetiva investigar de que forma as políticas de formação docente se articulam com a interculturalidade. Como metodologia, foi seguida uma abordagem qualitativa (Bodgan; Biklen, 1994) e realizadas uma revisão narrativa da literatura (Rother, 2007) e uma análise documental (Gil, 2002) de políticas de formação docente nacionais e internacionais. Concluímos que o direito à educação é reiterado nos documentos examinados, em uma perspectiva de inclusão e equidade, a partir da valorização da diversidade cultural. Entretanto, são encontradas divergências entre os enfoques globais e locais incumbidos à formação de professores, visto que as políticas internacionais caminham para uma formação mais funcional, enquanto as diretrizes nacionais demonstram maior preocupação com uma formação compromissada com a transformação social e valorização das identidades locais.

THE EDUCATIONAL CONTENT OF PESULAP MERAH IN EXPOSING SHAMANISTIC PRACTICES IN INDONESIA: A CONTEXTUAL STUDY OF THE HADITH ON AL-KAHANAH
Authors: Friyadi Arif
Published: February 2025

Shamanistic practices, such as love spells and black magic, remain widely believed in Indonesian society, reinforcing the stereotype of shamans as figures who can solve mystical problems. This phenomenon has deep roots, stretching back to the eras of animism and dynamism, and continues today amid a lack of scientific understanding. Recently, Pesulap Merah has taken to digital platforms to openly criticize and expose these practices, prompting many to question the claims about shamans' supernatural powers. This study seeks to explore the relevance of the hadith on al-kahanah, which forbids shamanistic practices, in light of Pesulap Merah's critiques. Using a qualitative approach, we gathered data through content analysis of the hadiths in Kutub al-Sittah, along with observations of societal reactions to Pesulap Merah's content. Our analysis involved a comparative examination of the hadiths and an exploration of the motivations behind these critiques. The findings reveal that shamanistic practices not only conflict with Islamic teachings but also promote irrational thinking. While Pesulap Merah's criticisms are not rooted in religious doctrine, they resonate strongly with the hadith's warnings about the dangers of shamanism and its effects on faith and rationality. This research contributes to a deeper understanding of how religious teachings intersect with contemporary socio-cultural issues in Indonesia. [Praktik perdukunan, seperti pelet dan santet, masih banyak dipercaya oleh masyarakat Indonesia sehingga memperkuat stigma dukun sebagai tokoh yang dianggap mampu mengatasi masalah-masalah mistis. Fenomena ini mengakar sejak era animisme dan dinamisme, dan terus berlanjut hingga era modern dengan minimnya pemahaman saintifik. Baru-baru ini, Pesulap Merah, melalui konten-konten digitalnya, secara terbuka mengkritik dan membongkar praktik perdukunan, membuat banyak pihak mulai meragukan klaim kesaktian para dukun. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk menjelaskan relevansi hadis al-kahanah, yang mengharamkan praktik perdukunan, dengan kritik yang disampaikan Pesulap Merah terhadap praktik-praktik tersebut. Dengan menggunakan pendekatan kualitatif, data dikumpulkan melalui analisis konten dari hadis-hadis al-kahanah yang terdapat dalam Kutub al-Sittah, serta observasi fenomena yang terjadi di masyarakat terkait konten digital Pesulap Merah. Analisis dilakukan dengan pendekatan perbandingan syarah hadis serta analisis motif tindakan. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa praktik perdukunan tidak hanya bertentangan dengan ajaran Islam, tetapi juga menjerumuskan masyarakat ke dalam pola pikir yang tidak rasional. Kritik Pesulap Merah, meskipun tidak berbasis agama, memiliki relevansi kuat dengan ajaran hadis terkait bahaya perdukunan dan dampaknya terhadap keimanan dan rasionalitas. Penelitian ini berkontribusi dalam kontekstualisasi ajaran agama dengan fenomena sosial-kultural kontemporer di Indonesia.]
Study of consequents noise on hearing threshold in Wasit textile and knitting factory
Authors: Al-zoubaidi Eman M. , F. Essa A. , Musa Hayder S.
Published: February 2025

In this study, noise levels are measured in the Wasit Textile and Knitting Factory (measuring the
equivalent sound pressure level). Using a sound level meter device at three sections of the factory:
Textile, Knitting and Boilers. The average noise level in 12 points is about 92.98 dB, which is greater
than the noise level allowed for continuous work for 8 hours a day. All of these 150 workers are brought
in groups of 8 workers per week to the hearing unit at Al Karama Teaching Hospital. A hearing test is
conducted to evaluate their hearing level and determine the extent of the effect of noise on the hearing
threshold, after they are examined by an ear, nose and throat consultant using an otoscope device. 23
workers are excluded from the study because they are suffering from middle ear infection. Thus, the
number of workers who underwent hearing testing reached 127 workers, and after conducting statistics
on the data, it is found that 108 workers suffer from hearing loss in high frequencies (left ear) and 106
workers (right ear). The latest findings of this study are that noise-induced hearing loss can develop
many years before the worker complains of hearing loss.

This study examined and analyzed monthly data on the volume of Iraq's oil exports for the time period
(January 2014 to December 2022) using time series models. The prediction values, which revealed that
they are reasonably close to the actual series, serve as evidence of the model's correctness. In this paper,
we determined from the results of the data analysis in this study that the integrated autoregressive model
of the ARIMA moving average (0,1,1) is the best model for representing the data under study after
several analysis models are applied to a sample of oil revenues over a nine-year period. The predicted
values for the years 2023 and 2024 are then extracted

Published: February 2025

In spring maize (Zea mays L.) prone to heat stress, especially at terminal stages, understanding the impact of sowing time on important genotypes for heat stress tolerance is crucial to optimize yield. An experiment was conducted during 2020 and 2021 at the Research farm of ICAR-Indian Institute of Maize Research, Ludhiana, Punjab to study the effect of sowing time and genotype interactions on yield and heat stress in spring maize. The experiment was laid out in a split-plot design (SPD) comprised of 4 different sowing dates, viz. 15th February; 25th February; 5th March; and 15th March, and 4 maize genotypes, viz. PMH1; PMH10; CoH(M)6; and CoH(M)8, replicated thrice. Spring maize sown on 15th February gave a higher grain yield (8.5 t/ha). Successive delays of 10, 20, and 30 days in sowing of spring maize caused significant yield penalties of 15%, 24%, and 29%, respectively. Heat stress at flowering was observed with delayed sowing (5th and 15th March), leading to a ~20% yield decline compared to non-stressed conditions (15th February). Furthermore, sowing beyond 15 February resulted in a shortening of vegetative (4–15 days) and reproductive (3–8 days) periods. Spring maize sown on 15 February gave higher water productivity (16–34%) compared to delayed sowings. Among genotypes, PMH 1 recorded a higher yield (8.2 t/ha) under non-stressed conditions with early sowing on 15th February. However, under heat stress, PMH 10 gave a higher yield (6.5 t/ha) sown on 25th February. Overall, it could be concluded that spring maize sowing up to 15th February is the optimum time to avoid heat stress at the flowering stage to achieve higher yield in north-western regions of India.

Published: February 2025

Salinity and draught is a major threat to agricultural productivity worldwide and presents a tremendous challenge for food security. Plant physio-morphological traits are very important for selection in a plant breeding program to improve drought tolerance due to their relation to the adaption for future climate scenarios. The results revealed that there were significant variations with all morphological and physiological traits influenced by under salt and drought conditions. The investigation studied morphological traits (seed germination, shoot length, number of leaves) and physiological trait (chlorophyll content, relative water content) were decreased under salt and drought conditions i.e. NIAW-917, NIAW-295, MACS-6222 compared with control except NIAW-301 and NIAW-3170 at seedling stage. The relative water content shows in the genotypes exhibited highest in NIAW-3170 (78.03%), it indicate that water status in the wheat genotype hence, it reflects the balance between water supply to the leaf tissue and transpiration rate but it will reflect in NIAW-917 (71.25%) was lowest due to effect of NaCl and PEG. The chlorophyll content the highest amount in NIAW301 (1.02) hence it indicate that the quantity of chlorophyll per unite area is an indicator of photosynthetic capacity of a wheat genotype. Amount of chlorophyll in leaf tissue is influenced by nutrient avability and environmental stresses, the lowest amount found in NIAW-3170 (0.74) under stress conditions due to Chlorophyll ‘b’ content is drastically reduced. It is confirmed that under salinity and drought stress the genotypes significantly performed NIAW-301 (89.75%). The mechanism associated with the tolerance to the salinity and drought stress the systems that regulates adaptation of plant to abiotic stress in wheat.

At the end of the evaluation, it was computed that 136.4 km2 (27%) of the study area is highly suitable, 285.5 km2 (64%) is moderately suitable and 47.2 km2 (9%) of the study area is not suitable for agriculture. However, the problems of the low production caused by geomorphological characteristics, such as very high elevation, a high degree of slope, the presence of bare rocks, and low availability of the irrigation system. All these threats resulted in a very less amount of land in the study area being identified highly suitable for agricultural production.

One of the most efficient ways to conserve soil and water is through basin listing. Listing on the contour helps to store rainwater and minimize soil erosion. A tractor operated ridger for basin lister to prepare watercourse for irrigation was developed to achieve the proper furrow shape. Developed ridger consists of frame, furrow opener, shank, share, landside and three-point linkage attachment. The developed tractor operated ridger for basin lister to prepare watercourse for irrigation. was operated at three forward speeds, height of ridger and attachment of ridger to basin lister at 2, 3, 4 km h-1, 0.550, 0.525, 0.500 m and full sweep both sides, full sweep one side, half sweep both sides, respectively. The theoretical field capacity and field efficiency were 0.85 hah-1 and 80.28% respectively. The fuel consumption of tractor was 6.786 lha-1 and 3.078 lh-1. The operating cost of the machine was 1675 Rs. ha-1 and 440.45 Rs. ha-1. The width of the furrow increases as the forward speed increases, the setting of ridger height increases and working crosssectional area of ridger attachment increases. The optimized parameter for developed tractor operated ridger for basin lister to prepare water courses was 2 km h-1 forward speed, 0.500 m height of ridger and full sweep both sides.

Post-sequestration carbon losses may be the reason why theoretical predictions of soil carbon sequestration in agricultural systems frequently differ from actual quantities of soil carbon. One of the many ways that agricultural systems lose stored carbon is through soil erosion. There is deficiency of specific information on various loss mechanisms, particularly carbon loss through terrestrial hydrological channels on farm size. In this review, we examine the various literatures on the losses and gains of terrestrial on-farm carbon in hydrological channels. This review does not specifically cover catchment size, landscape scale, or modeling research; they are just briefly mentioned. Particulate organic and inorganic carbon, dissolved organic carbon (DOC), dissolved inorganic carbon (DIC), dissolved CO2-C, and dissolved CH4-C are among the carbon components linked to soil erosion and runoff. Temperate climate zones having average annual rainfall of 500 mm may see rainfall containing between 6.4 and 29.5 kilogram of DOC (DOC content in rainwater ranges from 1.28 to 5.9 mg L-1). It is seen a field’s net carbon contribution (from irrigation water) ranges between 4.6 and 30.8 kg ha-1. The carbon losses due to runoff and erosion can range from below detection thresholds to 1072 kg ha-1 yr-1, these values represent substantial percentages of the Soil Organic Carbon sequestration rates reported in the literature. In eroded sediments, organic carbon enrichment ratios vary between 0.39 and 5. Low to 90 mg l -1 of total organic carbon can be probably found in deep drainage beneath agricultural regions. Changes in uses of land, tillage operations, ground covering with vegetation, layout of farm, slope of field, and length of furrow and buffer strips of vegetation are some management techniques that may affect soil carbon losses in erosion and runoff. As most research concentrated on nutrients loss other than carbon, so it reveals that there was a significant knowledge vacuum regarding actual data on soil carbon lost through erosion and runoff. According to new carbon farming initiative measure, a greater comprehension of farm-level carbon losses through runoff across various agricultural systems is necessary to more accurately anticipate the potential for Soil Organic Carbon sequestration. Other gaps include the carbon dioxide and methane emissions from irrigation networks (head ditches, tail drains, etc.), sediment deposition sites on farms, carbon benefits at the farm level from irrigation and flooding, and carbon losses in water bodies and sedimentation sites. It is essentially required to conduct more research on carbon losses with deep drainage, their effects on denitrification across the entire soil profile, the biochemical processes that accompany those changes in carbon, commerces during on-farm import between carbon and nitrogen, and related mechanisms.
Hydrologic Engineering Centers-River Analysis System (HEC-RAS) - A Review
Authors: D. D. More  , B. K. Gavit  , S. B. Nandgude
Published: February 2025

The integrated software system known as HEC-RAS allows for the interactive usage of a multi-user, multitasking network environment. The system has a Graphic User Interface (GUI), distinct hydraulic analytic components, data storage and management capabilities, visuals, and reporting tools. Three 1-dimensional hydraulic analysis components will eventually be included in the HEC-RAS system for 1) steady flow. 2) Unsteady flow simulation 3) Calculations of movable-boundary sediment movement. Steady and unsteady flows are provided, and sediment transport is being developed. Using a common geometric data representation and geometric and hydraulic computation procedures by all three components is crucial. Along with the three hydraulic analysis components, the system also has some hydraulic design features that can be used once the fundamental water surface profiles have been calculated. These features include bridge scour calculations, uniform flow calculations, stable channel design, and sediment transport capacity. HEC-RAS is an integrated software system for interactive use that can determine water levels, depths, and flow velocities for different flow configurations and cross-sectional zones along the River. The review shows that the HEC-RAS model has many utilities in flood forecasting, water resource planning, and management. Most studies found HEC-RAS modelling efficient and reliable in different river basins to simulate flood-prone zones accurately. Accordingly, the model may be applied to river flow analysis simulation in a stream flow basin for water resource planning, development, management, and decision-making.

Published: February 2025

The synergism between thermal and ethanol stress directly affects the functionality and survival of yeasts in industrial environments, compromising their cellular physiology. Therefore, this study aims to compare the proteins associated with thermal and ethanol stress, as well as to investigate the impacts of these factors on cell growth and total protein production. The Fleischmann®, Santa Adélia, and Pedra-2 yeasts were cultivated in 2% YPD medium. The biomass was recovered by centrifugation and inoculated in sugarcane juice at 22ºBrix, pH 5.0, and incubated at 30 and 40ºC, with ethanol concentrations ranging from 0, 5, 12, and 16% (v.v-1). Lysis occurred in Tris-HCl and glass beads, and total protein quantification was performed using the Bradford method, followed by readings in a spectrophotometer at 595 nm. Heat shock proteins (HSPs), especially HSP70 and HSP104, play a crucial role in cellular protection and maintenance under adverse conditions. The Fleischmann® lineage showed lower tolerance, with a significant reduction in cell growth. On the other hand, the Pedra-2 lineage demonstrated greater robustness, standing out for its greater biomass production and stress tolerance. Principal component analysis (PCA) confirmed the correlation between total protein production and stress tolerance, consolidating the Pedra-2 lineage as the most promising for industrial applications. This study provides valuable contributions to understanding the interaction of heat shock proteins with severe stress factors in industrial yeasts, with the aim of improving efficiency and promoting sustainability in fermentation processes.
