Qual o impacto do WhatsApp em eleições? Uma revisão sistemática (2010-2019)
Authors: Marques Schaefer Bruno , Leme Barbosa Tiago Alexandre , Sousa Fernandes Epitácio Sara De , Carnelos Resende Roberta
Published: December 2019

As eleições brasileiras de 2018 foram marcadas por uma nova forma de se fazer campanhas. Se antes o horário gratuito político eleitoral (HGPE) reforçava a ampliação de coligações e compelia pequenos partidos a serem criativos no uso de seu tempo de rádio e TV, atualmente novos sistemas de tecnologia têm sido utilizados. Este artigo busca compreender de que forma os periódicos têm abordado a temática. O objetivo central é fazer uma revisão sistemática do que foi publicado envolvendo WhatsApp e eleições, no período 2010-2019, em quatro bases de dados: Scielo, Google Scholar, Web of Science e Scopus. O estudo nos permite dizer que os casos analisados e a produção sobre o tema encontraram maior adesão em países democratizados no contexto da “terceira onda”. Quanto à contribuição do aplicativo para o fortalecimento da democracia, as opiniões se dividem entre aqueles que apontam para o perigo do uso de fake news e aqueles que observam no aplicativo uma forma de democratizar o acesso à informação.

Published: December 2019

As espécies de Copaifera, popularmente conhecidas como copaíba, tem seu óleo-resina utilizado na medicina tradicional indígena. Além disso, sua madeira é apreciada para produção de carvão, lenha ou para construção de casas, devido à sua durabilidade. O objetivo foi investigar o conhecimento tradicional Macuxi e usos da copaíba na comunidade indígena Darora, Terra Indígena São Marcos, Roraima. Foi realizado um inventário, por gênero e idade, sobre o conhecimento da copaíba entre os moradores da comunidade. As entrevistas semiestruturadas foram realizadas com 60 participantes (36 homens e 24 mulheres) entre 18 e 84 anos de idade. Entre estes, 48 participantes (32 homens e 16 mulheres) indicaram o uso de copaíba. A copaíba apresentou 21 usos, principalmente na categoria medicinal (47% das citações), e para uso de madeira (construção, 33%, combustível, 7,5% e tecnologia, 5%). Embora tenha havido diferenças entre IDV e IEV de homens e mulheres, havia apenas diferenças significativas com homens com mais de 40 anos de idade, indicando que este grupo tem um conhecimento maior sobre o uso de copaíba em relação aos outros participantes, independentemente do gênero e idade (U = 54,5 e p = 0,0075).

Vida, trabalho e cotidiano – história e memória das mulheres na colonização da transamazônica
Authors: Soares Filipe Menezes
Published: December 2019

O decreto que institui o Programa de Integração Nacional, em junho de 1970, prevê como parte de seus intentosuma política de colonização às margens da rodovia Transamazônica. A ação consistia na transferência de grandes contingentes de mão-de-obra proveniente do Nordeste e a posterior concessão de terras para essas famílias na Amazônia –abrandando as consequências da seca na primeira região e garantindo a soberania nacional nas áreas de fronteira, como aponta a retórica oficial do regime da ditadura. No artigo, pretendo destacar a memória das mulheres migrantes que se deslocaram às regiões de colonização em busca de novos locaisde moradia e trabalho. Com o rigor metodológico da história oral, serão analisadas as entrevistas a mim concedidas por Creuza Azevedo de Melo e Maria Eunice Alves. Através da memória do deslocamento e da recriação da vida nas margens da rodovia, poderemoster contato com o cotidiano dessas mulheres no início da década de 1970. Entende-se que a história do cotidiano é um espaço privilegiado para investigarmos o papel de gênero desempenhado pelas mulheres na constituição familiar, assim comotambém auxilia acrítica àconsequente divisão sexual do trabalho no campo. Seus depoimentos também permitem o resgate e a problematizaçãode uma política governamental orientada pela ditadura militar e direcionada às classes populares do Nordeste. De maneira geral, a vida e o trabalho das mulheres migrantes na Transamazônica expõem a complexidade dos processos de ocupação dos sertões brasileiros no século XX. Por sua vez, o uso de seus depoimentos é fundamental para entendermos a participação feminina na constituição de novas territorialidades. As mulheres, agora protagonistas de uma nova vida na Amazônia, são sujeitos determinantes na configuração das práticas culturais em regiões de“colonização dirigida”.

Higher integrability theorems on time scales from reverse Hölder's inequalities
Authors: Saker Samir , Osman Mahmoud , Krnic Mario
Published: December 2019

In this paper, we establish some new reverse dynamic inequalities and use
them to prove some higher integrability theorems for decreasing functions on
time scales. In order to derive our main results, we first prove a new
dynamic inequality for convex functions related to the inequality of Hardy,
Littlewood and P?lya, known from the literature. Then, we prove a refinement
of the famous Hardy inequality on time scales for a class of decreasing
functions. As an application, our results are utilized to formulate the
corresponding reverse integral and discrete inequalities, which are
essentially new.
Antioxidative response of tomato genotypes to late blight infection
Authors: Medic-Pap Sladjana , Danojevic Dario , Prvulovic Dejan , Tancic-Zivanov Sonja , Cervenski Janko
Published: December 2019

Wild species are widely used as potential sources of resistance of tomato to late blight (LB) (causal agent Phytophthora infestans). The biochemical response of wild and cultivated tomato genotypes with different levels of resistance to P. infestans was assessed through the total phenolic and flavonoid content and antioxidative capacity. In total, six genotypes were included in the research ? three cultivated tomato varieties and three wild species. The wild genotypes Solanum pimpinellifolium S 220 and Solanum habrochaites had a significantly lower infection rate compared to the other tested genotypes. After disease assessment on the leaves, biochemical analyses were performed. Grouping of the wild accessions according to principal component analysis (PCA) analysis indicated similar reaction to LB infection. Furthermore, late blight trait is closer to cultivated genotypes. Although the phenolics and flavonoids have high importance in the reaction of tomato plants to late blight infection, these traits are not closely related to wild species and the disease. According to this study, the antioxidative tests that indicate a response of wild species to late blight infection are total antioxidant activity (TAA), ferric-reducing antioxidant power (FRAP) and radical cation scavenging activity (ABTS).

Electronic Discovery (eDiscovery): Performing the Early Stages of the Enron Investigation
Authors: Negangard Eric M. , Fay Rebecca G.
Published: December 2019

A good investigator, whether it be in the context of an audit or a forensic investigation, recognizes the evidentiary value of digital evidence and can harness its power. The following instructional case introduces students to how digital evidence is incorporated into a forensic accounting investigation and challenges them to learn electronic discovery (eDiscovery) tools and techniques. While performing the early stages of the investigation at Enron, students gain exposure to the electronic discovery reference model (EDRM), learn the differences between structured and unstructured data, and deploy various digital search strategies. After performing their preliminary investigation, students are asked to “scope” the remainder of the investigation by creating a detailed workplan. At the conclusion of the case, students are encouraged to reflect upon their own methods of electronic communication. This encourages students to think before digitizing (and therefore memorializing) their next thought, statement, or action.
Yksilön ympäristövastuulliset terveysvalinnat: kirjallisuuskatsaus
Authors: Moilanen Tanja , Siipi Helena , Kangasniemi Mari
Published: December 2019

Ympäristövastuu on ajankohtainen yhteiskunnallisen keskustelun aihe ja viimeaikaisessa tutkimuksessa ympäristövastuuta on tarkasteltu myös yksilön toiminnan ja valintojen suhteen. Tämän tutkimuksen tarkoituksena oli tunnistaa ja kuvata sitä, mihin terveysvalintoihin ympäristövastuullinen tarkastelu on kohdistunut ja millä tekijöillä niitä on selitetty. Tutkimusmenetelmänä käytettiin integratiivista katsausta, ja haut toteutettiin sekä tieteellisiin tietokantoihin että manuaalisina hakuina. Artikkelit valittiin sisäänotto- ja poissulkukriteereiden perusteella. Aineisto (n=11) analysoitiin jatkuvan vertailun menetelmällä. Tulosten mukaan ympäristövastuulliset terveysvalinnat kohdistuvat ensi sijassa ravitsemukseen. Ympäristövastuulliset terveysvalinnat kuvattiin osana yksilön elämäntapaa, mutta valintojen tekemisen todettiin voivan olla sattumanvaraista. Yksilöiden valinnat kytkeytyivät terveyden ja ympäristön arvoihin sekä tulkintoihin muiden ihmisten eettisyydestä. Ympäristövastuullisten terveysvalintojen kuvattiin voivan edistää yksilön terveyttä sekä laajempaa sosiaalista ja yhteiskunnallista kestävyyttä. Yksilön käsitysten valintojen oletetuista terveys- ja ympäristövaikutuksista todettiin olevan positiivisessa yhteydessä päätösten tekemiseen. Ympäristövastuullisten vaihtoehtojen saavutettavuus ja alhainen hinta helpottivat niiden valitsemista. Yhteiskunnallisten päätöksentekijöiden ja ruuan tuottajien koettiin voivan vaikuttaa yksilön mahdollisuuksiin tehdä ympäristövastuullisia terveysvalintoja. Aikaisempi tutkimustieto ympäristövastuullisista terveysvalinnoista kohdistuu osin rajallisesti vain ravitsemukseen ja etuoikeutettuihin väestönosiin. Jatkossa tarvitaan tietoa keinoista tukea yksilön arvoperusteisia terveysvalintoja ja niiden vaikutuksesta yksilön ja yhteisöjen terveyden sekä ympäristön tilan edistämiseen.

Responses of the mangrove ecosystem to Holocene environmental change in the Sundarban Biosphere Reserve, India
Authors: Hait Arghya Kumar , Behling Hermann
Published: December 2019

The Sundarban Mangrove Forest in the Sundarban Biosphere Reserve, located at the mouth of the Ganga–Brahmaputra Delta in India, is the most diverse mangrove ecosystem in the world. Sediment cores were taken from two widely separated islands in that reserve: Chamta (CMT) and Sudhyanyakhali (SDK). Pollen analysis and radiocarbon dating were used to study the Holocene development and dynamics of this unique ecosystem. Modern pollen rain study reveals a strong relation between modern pollen rain and the present vegetation, as well as a high rate of Phoenix palludosa pollen production.The pollen records indicate that man-grove existed at CMT from ~5960 and at SDK from ~1520 cal yr BP. Changes in relative sea level, including the frequency and intensity of inundation as well as fluctuating precipitation, have been the major factors along with geomorphic processes that control the development and dynamics of the mangrove in the area during the Holocene. The mid Holocene mangrove at CMT declined, to be progressively replaced by successive communities, and eventually reached climax stage, while the SDK site is transitional in nature. The mangrove responds rapidly to changes in environmental conditions at both locations. Because of large-scale anthropogenic interventions, it is unlikely that similar rapid responses will occur in the future.
Geminispermum, an Early Cretaceous (early–middle Albian) cupulate unit from the angiosperm-dominated Puddledock flora of eastern North America
Authors: Friis Else Marie , Crane Peter R. , Pedersen Kaj Raunsgaard
Published: December 2019

A new genus and species, Geminispermum virginiense, is described based on a well-preserved coalified cupulate reproductive unit recovered from the Early Cretaceous (early–middle Albian) Puddledock locality, Virginia, U.S.A. The reproductive unit is bisymmetrical and consists of an axis that bifurcates into two cupule-bearing stalks, each in the axil of a bract. Each cupule stalk bears a single non-valvate cupule recurved towards the center of the reproductive unit. The cupule opens distally by a short transverse slit with a distinct upper margin. Each cupule almost completely encloses a single orthotropous seed that is free from the cupule except at the base. The nucellus is also free from the integument except at the basal point of attachment. Geminispermum combines features of the ovulate structures of Caytoniales, Umkomasiales (= Corystospermales, including Doyleales) and Petriellales, but cannot be included in any of these existing orders as they are currently understood. The recurved, closed, non-valvate cupules are particularly similar to those of Caytonia, Petriellaea and Reymanownaea in external morphology, but differ in being one-seeded. The cupules of Geminispermum differ from the one-seeded cupules of Umkomasiales in being non-valvate and in having only a single cupule per bract. Geminispermum is perhaps most similar to the one- or two-seeded non-valvate cupules of Ktalenia from the Early Cretaceous of Argentina, but Ktalenia is poorly preserved, details of cupule architecture are uncertain, and the cupules appear to be associated with a single strongly dissected bract. Geminispermum is currently the only unequivocal seed plant cupule recovered from the Early Cretaceous Potomac Group and is distinct from all previously described cupulate reproductive structures.
ACE Insertion/Deletion polymorphism (rs4646994) affects body composition in middle-aged premenopausal women with essential hypertension
Authors: Falbová Darina , Vorobeľová Lenka , Candráková Čerňanová Veronika , Beňuš Radoslav , Siváková Daniela
Published: December 2019

This study assesses the association between angiotensin converting enzyme (ACE) I/D (rs4646994) polymorphism and body composition parameters in essential hypertension (HT) and menopausal status in Slovak women. The entire study sample comprised 575 women in two groups: 255 with HT and 320 without. Body composition parameters were measured by bioelectric impedance analyzer and ACE I/D polymorphism genotypes were detected by polymerase chain reaction. Premenopausal HT women with ACE II genotype had significantly lower body cell mass (p=0.004), extra- and intracellular water (p=0.027; p=0.004), fat free mass and muscle mass (p=0.006; P = 0.003), fat free mass index (p=0.006) and body cell mass index (p=0.003) than their ID/DD counterparts. These associations were not determined in normotensive and/or postmenopausal women. This study confirmed that ACE I/D gene polymorphism affects body composition in HT premenopausal women.
Human ageing, longevity and evolution: can ageing be programmed?
Authors: Chmielewski Piotr Paweł
Published: December 2019

Understanding the proximate and ultimate causes of ageing is one of the key challenges in current biology and medicine. These problems are so important that they are sometimes referred to as the Holy Grail of biology and the Great Conundrum in biogerontology. From an evolutionary perspective, ageing is due to a failure of selection that is caused either by declining strength of selection after the onset of sexual reproduction (Medawar’s theory and Charlesworth’s model) or pleiotropic constraints (Williams’ theory). According to the disposable soma theory, which was proposed by Kirkwood and Holliday, ageing is driven by the accumulation of damage during life and failures of defensive and repair mechanisms as the more an animal expends on sexual reproduction, the less it can expend on bodily maintenance, and vice versa. Although these standard models rule out the possibility that ageing is programmed, there is no consensus about the nature of ageing within the life history in current biogerontology. Interestingly, empirical studies show that there are molecular instructions for ageing and evolutionarily conserved mechanisms for ageing, which seems inconsistent with the idea that ageing is a matter of neglect or a consequence of a failure of selection due to pleiotropic constraints. Here, selected arguments for programmed (i.e. either determined and adaptive or prearranged but non-adaptive) and non-programmed ageing are discussed. Recent advances in biogerontology that cast new light on these problems are outlined here in the context of the idea that the pace of ageing can act as an adaptation in nature, even though ageing is non-programmed and non-adaptive.
Evaluation of mobile applications for fitness training and physical activity in healthy low-trained people - A modular interdisciplinary framework
Authors: Wiemeyer Josef
Published: December 2019

Numerous mobile applications are available that aim at supporting sustainable physical activity and fitness training in sedentary or low-trained healthy people. However, the evaluation of the quality of these applications often suffers from severe shortcomings such as reduction to selective aspects, lack of theory or suboptimal methods. What is still missing, is a framework that integrates the insights of the relevant scientific disciplines.

In this paper, we propose an integrative framework comprising four modules: training, behavior change techniques, sensors and technology, and evaluation of effects. This framework allows to integrate insights from training science, exercise physiology, social psychology, computer science, and civil engineering as well as methodology. Furthermore, the framework can be flexibly adapted to the specific features of the mobile applications, e.g., regarding training goals and training methods or the relevant behavior change techniques as well as formative or summative evaluation.
Enhancement of yttrium ion on the properties of L-histidine nitrate single crystal for frequency conversion applications
Authors: Sathiyanathan S. , Selvapandiyan M.
Published: December 2019

Nonlinear optical single crystals of L-histidine nitrate (LHN) as well as 0.05 mol % Y2+ doped LHN and 0.10 mol % Y2+ doped LHN were successfully grown by slow evaporation technique at room temperature. The lower cutoff wavelength and transmittance were 339 nm, 343 nm, 347 nm and 84 %, 86 % and 87 % for LHN, 0.05 mol % and 0.10 mol % yttrium doped LHN, respectively. Powder XRD studies revealed that the grown materials belong to an orthorhombic system with the space group P212121. FT-IR peak at 534 cm−1 due to yttrium coordinated with oxygen was observed. The EDAX analysis confirmed the presence of such elements as C, N, O and Y in the grown materials. High intensity PL emission peak was obtained at 420 nm.

Mg0.95Ni0.05Ti0.98Zr0.02O3 and CaTiO3 were prepared separately using solid state reaction method. The effect of CaTiO3 addition on the microwave dielectric properties of Mg0.95Ni0.05Ti0.98Zr0.02O3 was investigated to get low loss and temperature stable ceramics in (1 – x)Mg0.95Ni0.05Ti0.98Zr0.02O3-xCaTiO3 series. Mg0.95Ni0.05Ti0.98Zr0.02O3 formed as the major phase along with Mg0.95Ni0.05Ti2O5 phase that formed as minor secondary phase for the composition with x = 0. Microwave dielectric properties ∈r ~ 17.1, Qufo of 195,855 GHz and τf of –46.3 ppm/°C were obtained for the composition with x = 0. The positive τf value of CaTiO3, tuned the τf value of Mg0.95Ni0.05Ti0.98Zr0.02O3 through zero and ∈r ~ 28.4, Qufo ~ 108,775 GHz and τf ~ 3.1 ppm/°C were attained for x = 0.15 in this study. This composition is the best choice for high frequency applications.
Breeding, dispersal, migration and conservation of the Black-winged Stilt (Himantopus himantopus) in Hungary
Authors: Pigniczki Csaba , Nagy Tamás , Oláh János , Nagy Gergő Gábor , Karcza Zsolt , Schmidt András
Published: December 2019

The Black-winged Stilt was the bird of the year in Hungary in 2019. The population of the species increased from 20–25 breeding pairs to 550–680 pairs from 1980s to the present. 75–85% of the Hungarian population bred on effluent pools for pigs and settling pools at sugar beet factories in the first half of 1990s. There were significantly more breeding pairs in Hungary in 1999 compared to previous years, and finally 871 breeding pairs of Black-winged Stilts were documented in 2000 and the Hungarian population was estimated at 940–960 pairs. There were 550–680 breeding pairs in Hungary between 2015 and 2017. Significantly more clutches had more than five eggs in the sampled colonies during the influx in 2000 than in the egg collections before 1971 or in the sampled colony in 2008 as well. First arrivals reached Hungary between 5 and 20 March (median: 15 March) between 2005 and 2019. These arrival dates fall approximately a month earlier than the former arrival dates in mid-April during the 1980s. 470 Black-winged Stilts were observed in a single flock during post-breeding dispersal, this flock was the largest ever documented in Hungary. Stilts left Hungary by the first half of September in the 1980s, and in contrast, they left Hungary between 27 August and 4 January (median: 19 October) between 2005 and 2019. Recently, the most departure dates fall one and a half to three months later compared to the departure dates in the 1980s. Black-winged Stilts marked in Hungary disperse in the Carpathian Basin during their post-fledging/post-breeding dispersal. Based on ring readings of two individuals, they start to migrate southwest with stopover sites in Italy, but their wintering areas are unknown. Stilts hatched in Portugal (one individual) and France (two individuals) bred in Hungary during the large influxes in 1999 and 2000. Five Black-winged Stilts hatched in Italy were observed later in Hungary and are supposed to be breeders in Hungary in most cases. Furthermore, one individual captured as an adult in Spain and two trapped in Italy were observed in Hungary. The Hungarian population of Black-winged Stilt is threatened by predation on eggs and chicks, drainage of wetlands, and also by human-induced flooding of artificial wetlands (e.g. fishponds). Stilts regularly occupy artificial breeding islands the first years after habitat restoration. The Hungarian population of Black-winged Stilts is increasing due to habitat management with grazing animals, especially with Mangalica ‘Woolly’ Pigs and Water Buffalos.
The genus Parmotrema (Parmeliaceae, lecanoromycetes) in the Galapagos Islands
Authors: Bungartz Frank , Spielmann Adriano A.
Published: December 2019

As part of an ongoing comprehensive inventory of all Galapagos lichens, the genus Parmotrema has been revised. In Galapagos this genus is represented by thirty-five species, seven described as new to science: Parmotrema cactacearum, P. erectociliatum, P. lawreyi, P. marcellianum, P. pustulotinctum, P. saxoisidiatum and P. weberi. Parmotrema weberi, although previously informally recognized by Mason E. Hale, is now formally described here, the name thus validated. Reports of four species are doubtful or incorrect. Nine species are reported from the Galapagos for the first time, seven of those being also new for Ecuador. Parmotrema cooperi, previously known only from Central America, is now also reported from South America. Detailed descriptions and illustrations are provided for all thirty-five species, together with a dichotomic key for their identification. Diagnostic differences are discussed. If all newly described species are confirmed as endemic to the archipelago, the proportion of endemism within Parmotrema appears to be similar to most other groups of lichens recently reviewed.
House Price Convergence on the Primary and Secondary Markets: Evidence from Polish Provincial Capitals

The aim of this study is to identify whether there is a common house price trend across provincial capitals in Poland. The log t regression is the main method of analysis. Additionally, traditional convergence tests based on the concepts of β- and σ-convergence are used. The obtained results indicate that the cities do not share a common price in the long-run. There are, however, convergence clubs on both primary and secondary markets. In each club, house prices across cities tend to converge to their own steady state. Moreover, research on the driving forces of convergence reports that factors affecting housing prices differ among the clubs. Therefore, policymakers should adjust housing policies in accordance with the characteristics of a given club. In turn, the σ-convergence model demonstrated a very interesting finding, namely, a U-shape pattern of convergence, both on the primary and secondary markets. This pattern is strictly correlated with the level of prices on the markets.
Comparative Characteristics of the Activities of A. B. Lobanov-Rostovsky and N.P. Ignatiev During the Russian-Turkish War of 1878-1879

Successes in Russian politics of the XIX century are significant thanks to the efforts of diplomats Alexei Borisovich Lobanov-Rostovsky and Nikolai Pavlovich Ignatieff. In studies of the XX century, they are almost forgotten. Ignatieff is an experienced tactician, a supreme professional who owns a military affair. He had diplomatic cunning. Sometimes Ignatieff showed adventurism. Basically, these qualities provided him good luck in the diplomatic field. However, Ignatieff was not enough historical knowledge. It was in diplomatic negotiations during the Russian-Turkish war of 1878-1879 that this lacuna prevented his success. He insisted on the idea of pan-Slavism, not taking into account all international factors. The diplomat did not take into account the historical features of the Ottoman Empire, Europe’s interest in its power and influence, that is, the historical totality of the international system of counterweights. Lobanov-Rostovsky - strategist. And it was inherent evasiveness, skillful ability to convince of the correctness. However, the role of historical education in his diplomatic practice was enormous. In a more deliberate line of conduct at the conclusion of the final Treaty of Constantinople, he was helped by fundamental «background knowledge» that allowed him to adequately assess the geopolitical situation. The Prince was engaged in history from an early age. The hobby grew into professional occupations. For 16 years he published historical essays in leading historical journals. He had access to secret documents of the Russian Empire thanks to the trust of Emperor Alexander II. Lobanov used to work with primary sources. History has taught him that sometimes you need to act quickly, and in some situations, to exercise the greatest caution. In the situation of the Russian-Turkish war, he set himself only specific goals. If the San Stefano peace Treaty of 1878, signed by count Ignatieff, is well known, then the final Treaty of Constantinople, signed by Prince Lobanov-Rostovsky, is still very little mentioned. Meanwhile, after the Treaty of San Stefano, there were events that undermined its positive results. A “Berlin treatise of the great powers” in 1878 deprived Russia of a significant part of the acquisitions that it has achieved under the Treaty of San Stefano. Here Lobanov faced important General and specific tasks. To solve them, the new Ambassador had to have absolutely unique characteristics. In addition to the enormously developed ability Lobanov to build relationships with people: personal goodwill and the confidence of Alexander II; the respect in the higher Turkish circles; the location to him of the Sultan, who himself appealed to the Emperor with a request to appoint Ambassador Lobanov. The totality of personality traits and circumstances led to a convincing success, which was the final Treaty of Constantinople in 1879, which resulted in an independent state-the Autonomous Principality of Bulgaria.

Published: December 2019

The literary magazine «Otechestvennye Zapiski» legitimately belongs to the realm of the most known and reputable periodicals in the history of Russian journalism. Its publishers did everything possible to refine the journalistic style of its content and to turn each issue or, a book, as they used to call them, into high-quality classical thick literary magazines. The magazine published articles and stories of various genres. All of them stood out in terms of the high-quality writing. Both, up-and-coming and established authors dreamed of a publication there. At the same time, all of them realized that it was crucial to write something special for «Otechestvennye Zapiski», something not to be found in any other magazine. For many years, the magazine had a reputation of journalism training school. Yet, not only had it shaped outstanding journalists. Many up-and-coming writers became famous after the magazine featured their first works. Those, who we call today the classics of Russian literature, were among them. The magazine discovered Mikhail Lermontov to the world by being the first publisher of his short novels «Bela», «Fatalist», and «Taman» which later became parts of the novel «A Hero of Our Time». Many poems of Lermontov found the readers through «Otechestvennye Zapiski». Some of the early works of Nikolay Gogol and Fyodor Dostoyevsky were first featured there. It was this magazine, where young Turgenev gave his early poems as well. Plays of Alexander Ostrovsky went to the stages of the leading theaters shortly after being published in «Otechestvennye Zapiski». Taking advantage of the glory of a brilliant literary and artistic magazine, “Otechestvennye Zapiski” made a great contribution to the Russian culture. From the first years of its existence, articles on the newly opened private art galleries, numismatic collections, libraries, and various art exhibitions began to appear on its pages. From the very beginning of its publication and up to its closure, the journal carried out an important educational mission.
The Nizhny Novgorod Diocese During the Campaign for Aseizure of Churches’ Values in 1921-1922
Authors: Gorina A. A.
Published: December 2019

This paper as illustrated by Nizhny Novgorod province in the first half of the twenties of the XX century presents one of the most tragic pages of the relationship between church and state. The purpose of the Soviet government, which declared the creation of the first-ever atheistic state, was a complete elimination of church and religion as cultural, social and world outlook phenomenon. Hunger in 1921-1922 was an initial stage and constituted a ground for all further hardline policy of the Soviet state in its stance toward a church. In consequence of which a huge number of different objects of our Motherland’s historical and cultural heritage were done away with, also during repressions, a large number of believers and priests died. Many years in the Soviet historiography, there was a dominant statement that the Russian Orthodox Church opposed transferring the church values, which was intended for the relief aid. All actions of the church and appeals of the Patriarch Tikhon were subjected to obfuscation. A wide variety of sources, which earlier were strictly confidential, and nowadays they become available for researchers, allow objectively analyzing the charity of Russian Orthodox Church for the relief aid in 1921-1922. On the basis of regional archive documents, which contain statistical data, clergies and lay members records of meetings. The article provides more insight on through the campaign for a seizure of churches’ values in the Nizhny Novgorod province, also outlines the quantity of the seizure values: how many from them went for the relief aid. The clergies and lay members’ records of meetings of the Nizhny Novgorod province make it clear that their desire for relief aid was the optional choice. Printed copies have allowed to establish specific aspects of the campaign for a seizure of a church property, to fully consider the process of transition from the donation of values for the relief aid before the forced seizure of churches’ values in the region, and also to determine a problem of the collaboration of the government and the Nizhny Novgorod Diocese.

Authors: Dosani Aliyah , Lind Candace , Loewen Sylvia
Published: December 2019

Introduction: Concept mapping is a tool that is used to visualize complex factors and the links between them. While concept mapping is represented in community health practice and research literature, we found little information about using concept mapping in community health nursing education. Background: We developed an innovative concept map assignment to assist students to visualize complex inter-related factors and begin thinking about appropriate and relevant nursing interventions, using the Population Health Promotion Model (PHPM). Discussion: Concept maps enhanced the quality of meaningful teaching and learning at the university level, acting as both a learning and assessment strategy. Students exhibited critical thinking and drew conclusions that involved larger systemic issues such as social justice and health equity. Conclusion: Concept mapping is a powerful tool that facilitates and assesses authentic student learning. The concept map assignment was also an effective tool to help students grasp and apply the PHPM.

Tylenchulus semipenetrans causes serious damages related to decline on citrus in Cao Phong district, Hoa Binh province. This study evaluated the effects of EM, AMF, AT+Ketomium and Chitosan-Super in the control of nematodes. In the laboratory condition, the T. semipenetrans was isolated from the soil and assessed for survival in the liquid medium containing EM and Chitosan-Super. The larval mortality rate reached 98.57% after 72 hours when using Chitosan-Super at 2% concentration. For pot experiments, T. semipenetrans and bioinoculants were infected into Hoa Binh red grapefruit rhizospheres. The results indicated that nematode density in the soil decreased the most in CT5 (Chitosan-Super), followed by CT4 (AT+Ketomium), CT3 (AMF+EM) and CT1 (AMF), CT2 (EM); nematode density in roots was the highest at CT5 of 132±27 individuals/5g of roots, while in CT1 there was no parasitic nematode on the red grapefruit root though its density in soil was high (2.424±125 individuals/250g of soil). Citrus grew normally in all of the experience formulas. Research results are an important basis for effective use of bioinoculants in preventing nematode parasitic on citrus.

This study investigates and assesses the impact of assimilating data types (observed data surface, sounding, and satellite-derived atmospheric motion vectors – AMVs) for the Weather Research and Forecasting (WRF) in forecasting heavy rainfall over Central Highlands region, due to the impact of hurricane Damrey. The WRF model combined with the Gridpoint Statistical Interpolation (GSI) system, was started running at 12Z 03/11/2017, and 84h forecasts in advance, with two kinds for running assimilation "cold start" and "warm start", and with the three-dimensional variational data assimilation (3D-Var) method. The results showed that assimilated cases have improved forecasting about spatial distribution and amount of rainfall at a 24-hour lead time, in which, the "warm start" for better forecasting. Notably, the assimilation of AMVs data with the "warm start" run has improved forecasting quality of heavy rainfall, the POD, FAR, and CSI indicators are the best at the 24-hour lead time, for rainfall thresholds greater than 80mm.

CARTAS À LUCÍLIO E O RELATÓRIO DELORS PARA A UNESCO: UMA ABORDAGEM SOBRE OS PRINCÍPIOS EDUCATIVOS ATRAVÉS DA EDUCAÇÃO COMPARADA
Authors: Vito Rosana Vasconcelos Vito Vasconcelos , Melo José Joaquim Pereira
Published: December 2019

Este artigo é resultado de uma tese de doutorado que teve por objetivo analisar o modelo educacional pensado por Lúcio Anneu Sêneca (séc. I.), bem como os princípios educacionais expostos no relatório de Jacques Lucien Jean Delors (séc. XXI), escrito para a UNESCO. Cada época, cada governo e cada povo requer que a formação do homem atenda às demandas de uma respectiva sociedade. Portanto, para discutir os conceitos que fundamentam as propostas de educação do homem, precisamos compreender o tipo de formação humana requerido pela sociedade da qual ele está inserido, por isso, para a realização dessa pesquisa utilizamos como fontes as Cartas de Sêneca a Lucílio e Relatório de Delors para o século XXI. Considerando os tempos históricos distintos, nossa proposta foi cotejar as tendências reveladas por esses dois pensadores, na tentativa de analisar o que as aproximam ou as distanciam. Para tanto, o método de pesquisa utilizado foi o da História Comparada, com enfoque na formação humana, e a pesquisa bibliográfica como metodologia. O estudo não teve a intenção de sobrepor pensamentos, mas identificar conceitos, embora em tempos históricos distintos, possíveis aproximações nesses pensares educacionais, tendo em vista a formação de um homem ideal. É nesse sentido que a educação surge como via de adequação do homem ideal em seu tempo, pois cada qual apresenta particularidades que respondem às necessidades da sociedade do seu tempo histórico. Como resultado da pesquisa, constatamos que, enquanto Sêneca priorizava a formação humanística, Delors ratifica a formação tecnicista.
