Published: May 2022

Watermarking is primarily used to prevent unauthorized copying of digital data by inserting a watermark as a symbol of ownership in the digital data. The purpose of this work is to increase the imperceptibility and robustness of watermarked image by utilizing the Discrete Wavelet Transform (DWT) domain and Discrete Slantlet Transform (DST) technique. In compared to existing methodologies, the strategies used in this work considerably increased the robustness, imperceptibility, and protection of the watermarked image against JPEG compression and other types of noise attacks. The proposed method's robustness was determined by comparing the image's Normalized Cross-Correlation (NCC) value before and after the watermarking operation. The proposed method increased the NCC value to greater than 0.7 and the Peak Signal-to-Noise Ratio (PSNR) value to greater than 59 decibels (dB). Additionally, the proposed approach does not require knowledge of the original image in order to extract the watermarks.

Cloud computing can be online based network engineering which contributed with a rapid advancement at the progress of communication technological innovation by supplying assistance to clients of assorted conditions with aid from online computing sources. It's terms of hardware and software apps together side software growth testing and platforms applications because tools. Large-scale heterogeneous distributed computing surroundings give the assurance of usage of a huge quantity of computing tools in a comparatively low price. As a way to lessen the software development and setup onto such complicated surroundings, high speed parallel programming languages exist which have to be encouraged by complex operating techniques. There are numerous advantages for consumers in terms of cost and flexibility that come with Cloud computing anticipated uptake. Building on well-established research in Internet solutions, networks and utility computing, virtualization et cetera Service-Oriented Architectures and the Internet of Services (IoS) have implications for a wide range of technological issues such as parallel computing and load balancing as well as high availability and scalability. Effective load balancing methods are essential to solving these issues. Adaptive task load model is the name of the method we suggest in our article for balancing the workload (ATLM). We developed an adaptive parallel distributed computing paradigm as a result of this (ADPM). While still maintaining the model's integrity, ADPM employs a more flexible synchronization approach to cut down on the amount of time synchronous operations use. As well as the ATLM load balancing technique, which solves the straggler issue caused by the performance disparity between nodes, ADPM also applies it to ensure model correctness. The results indicate that combining ADPM and ATLM improves training efficiency without compromising model correctness.
Wpływ subrepcji na ważność reskryptów wydawanych przez dykasterie Kurii Rzymskiej (kan. 64 KPK)
Authors: Dzierżon Ginter
Published: May 2022

In the presented study, the Author made a detailed analysis of can. 64 CCL, which codifies the issue of the influence of subreption on the validity of rescripts issued by dicasteries of the Roman Curia (can. 64 CCL). He showed, firstly, that the principle contained in the canon is an implementation of the interpretative principle contained in can. 63 § 1 CCL concerning the influence of subreption on the validity of a rescript; secondly, can. 64 CCL has the character of an disqualifying law (can. 10 CCL). He has also proved that, even though can. 64 CCL has the character of an disqualifying law, the regulation it lays down is not unconditional; exceptions to it, on the one hand, are connected with the special positions of the Pope and the Apostolic Penitentiary in the canonical legal order, while on the other hand, the impossibility to inform may be due to the nature of things (ex natura rei). According to the Author, this could happen when the faithful repeatedly brought a request for a rescript to the same dicastery, and also when, having brought the request in the meantime, he referred the same request to another dicastery.

Published: May 2022

This study is devoted to the norms of audiovisual translation (AVT), analysis, and evaluation of the translation of audiovisual texts documentaries about wildlife. In recent decades the demand for documentary films by the audience has been gaining momentum. To a large extent, the volume of the release of foreign documentaries. Among the clear leaders in the market of cinematographic production can be identified such giants as the BBC, Discovery, Netflix, and NBO. Viewers’ interest in the products produced by these companies’ production is growing. Against this background, more than ever, it becomes in apparent that audiovisual translation of documentaries broadcast on the air television and on large screens is impossible without adaptation to the recipient. In this regard, the quality of the translation of foreign media content into the target language plays a paramount role. The degree of development of the research, related to the translation of film/video materials, was engaged by domestic and foreign scientists. However, the approach to studying this problem is heterogeneous. Our research focuses on the norms of translation of audiovisual texts of documentary films about wildlife, their analysis in a diachronic aspect, systematization, and identification of stable and mobile norms. Special attention is paid to the study paradigm of audiovisual translation documentaries. The relevance of the research topic is determined by the fact that today’s audiovisual translation is a little-explored area in domestic translation studies. In addition, the steady trend towards the rapid development of computer technology and the popularity of the world wide web in the media sphere implies a constant increase in the volume of foreign audiovisual products that need to be translated into the target audience’s language. During the research, it was decided to focus on the study of audiovisual translation, particularly the translation of documentaries about wildlife. Previously, when studying audiovisual translation, issues related to film translation standards and criteria for evaluating the translation of documentary films were not covered. In this study, an attempt was made to analyze and evaluate AVTs of wildlife documentaries. Based on the data obtained, we identify and systematize the norms of audiovisual translation of documentaries, which took shape over several periods.

The Power of Campfire Spaces for Diversity Education: A Case Study Analysis of a Diversity-Focused Outdoor Adventure Program
Authors: Williams Nathan
Published: May 2022

Diversity interventions on college campuses provide engagement opportunities for students to interact across lines of difference. Despite these efforts, hate crimes, racial and cultural insensitivity, and a lack of engagement with diverse peers are prevalent. This qualitative case study used an embedded single-case design to explore a new type of intervention: diversity-focused outdoor adventure trips. These trips draw participants from diverse campus communities and create bridges across student populations who might not interact otherwise. Findings from this study suggest that students experience meaningful experiential learning about diversity on outdoor adventure trips. Students are then able to create connections with diverse peers that impact their views of the campus and diverse peers in their community. These findings have implications for extending campus diversity education beyond the traditional classroom or workshop environment and demonstrates the potential for outdoor recreation and education contexts to be opportunities for powerful personal connections among diverse participants. These connections among individuals illustrate the potential for outdoor recreation experiences to forge new bonds between across disparate communities.

Authors: Bolick Cheryl Mason , Glazier Jocelyn , Stutts Christoph
Published: May 2022

Schools of education continue to struggle with how to best meet the needs of practicing teachers enrolled in graduate teacher education programs. The University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill’s School of Education designed a graduate teacher education program with an embedded outdoor education residency component to disrupt practicing teachers’ concepts of teaching with the intent of impacting their professional practice. This qualitative study reports the results of a multi-year investigation into the transference of the learning that occurs in the outdoor experiential education residency into teachers’ classroom communities. The experiential opportunities were designed to embolden the teachers to rethink community and to reinvent their teaching practice. The findings inform our understanding of the transference of outdoor experiential education as teachers took off their backpacks and returned to the K-12 classroom. Particularly evident in the data were the ways teachers’ own engagement in authentic community as part of the residency model influenced their efforts to create the same opportunities for their K-12 students and for themselves in their school communities. Our findings reveal images of possibility while also noting obstacles to transference.

Archives of changes in the natural environments are gathered in various kinds of sediments,depending on the time in the history of the Earth. The Quaternary environmental variations are recorded from the ocean cores and the Greenland or Antarctic ice cores. High temporal resolution for shorter periods may be derived from annually laminated lacustrine sediments. A versatile archive for palaeogeographical reconstruction of the time of the Pleistocene–Holocene transition in the fluvial has been found at Koźmin Las site in the Uniwejów Basin of the middle Warta river valley. Well-preserved remains of pine subfossil forest as trunks and in situ stumps and accompanying organic deposits, of the late Alleröd and Younger Dryas age, have been subjected to multiproxy palaeoecological analysis and geological investigations. The sediments stored signals of a few short terrestrial events intrrupted by periodic floods. It has been concluded that the forest was destroyed by deteriorating hydrological conditions or a sudden catastrophic event, like a strong wind, in response to a global climatic change of the Pleistocene–Holocene transition. The Late Weichselian natural events recorded at the site point to a possible reaction of the fluvial system in a changing climate and environment. The knowledge about the past is essential to the creation of current ecosystem management strategies.

Tourism and recreation are a very topical issue in Uniejów – a city which only recently introduced and developed these functions. This article is devoted to the tourists-residents relationship. Apart from a review of selected theoretical issues it also presents findings of surveys which examined the attitudes of the inhabitants of Uniejów and its region to the growing numbers of tourists, and their opinions about the effect of the new functions on the situation of the city. The present level of development of Uniejów's tourist functions as measured by the Baretje-Deffert index is low. The city is currently in the growth stage (according to Butler's stages of tourist areas evolution). This is in line with the positive attitude of the resident population to tourists. The respondents to the questionnaire survey reported good or fairly good relations with tourists visiting the city. Also, the majority of Uniejów's inhabitants have a positive opinion about the influence of the changes taking place in the city on the quality of life.

It does not often happen in the history of urban development that conditions in which towns are functioning are radically changed. Uniejów on the river Warta, with a population of a little above 3000, is one of such urban centres – its development path is now taking a new turn due to intensive development of tourism and recreation functions. The changes that are taking place in Uniejów are primarily affecting its residents. To find out their opinions on the new situation a survey has been conducted on a random sample of the inhabitants of the city and its region. The responses received show that generally the perception of the changes is positive – 100% of the respondents appreciate the improved appearance of the city and 76% point to increased economic growth. On the other hand, there are opinions indicating limited participation of the inhabitants in the success of the city – there are persons who feel to be affected negatively or not at all. This may be due to the fact that Uniejów has only very recently started the new development trajectory and it is too early for all the residents to feel its impact.

Published: May 2022

Background: Himachal Pradesh is one of the important apple producing state in India and a substantial quantity of apple fruit is utilized in processing for the preparation of juice and the left-over apple pomace remains a pollutant owing to the un-hygienic nature of apple pomace and its quick bio-degradability. Only a small fraction of apple pomace is traditionally being utilized in animal feeding due to the rapid spoilage of the wet pomace. The utilization of apple pomace in animal feeding remains a challenge and thus an attempt was made to ensile the maize through incorporation of apple pomace. Methods: The study was conducted to evaluate the nutritive value of maize silage incorporated with different levels of apple pomace and to study the effect of feeding silage on milk performance of crossbred cows. In the experiment apple pomace was incorporated in maize silage at 10, 20 and 30 per cent level. Result: On studying the proximate composition of different silage it was found that silage (T3) containing 80 per cent maize, 10 per cent apple pomace and 10 per cent mulberry leaves showed promising results. In T3 the proximate principles viz. dry matter, crude protein, crude fibre, ether extract, neutral detergent fibre acid detergent fibre, total ash, acid insoluble ash and pH were in ideal range and was at par with the silage formed by ensiling of sole maize crop. In the animal feeding trial, on feeding of apple pomace based maize silage 10.21 per cent higher milk yield was recorded with significantly higher milk fat, SNF and proteins. The net return on feeding of apple pomace based maize silage to crossbred cows was ₹ 149.00 which was higher than the control group (₹143.00 cow-1 day-1).

Authors: Nkansah A.M.
Published: May 2022

Background: Pineapple and carrot as composite ingredients in jam making will improve the nutritional values and general acceptability. Even though these fruit and vegetable are grown in large quantities in Ghana, yet remain unpopular due to their unusual flavour. Combining carrots with pineapple will help create a variety of jams which in the end will offer consumers a range of affordable jam products. The present work aims to determine the nutritional quality and sensory evaluation of blended pineapple-carrot jam at different blending ratios. Methods: Five (5) different jam samples were produced from the following formulations, 100% Pineapple (control), 90% pineapple with 20% carrot, 80% pineapple with 20% carrot, 75% pineapple with 25% carrot and 25% carrot with 75% pineapple. The determination of moisture, ash, protein, fat, crude fiber and carbohydrate were carried out using the AOAC method. Twenty trained panelists performed the sensory analysis using a 9 point hedonic scale of the developed jam. The results were statistically analyzed using the SPSS statistics software (Version 17.0). Data were analysed using ANOVA and Duncan’s multiple range tests was used to determine significant differences between the samples. Result: The results revealed a significant difference (P less than 0.05) in mean hedonic score between composite jam and control. Proximate analysis of the jam showed moisture (36.87-45.69%), ash (0.60-0.81%), protein (0.31-0.48%), crude fat (5.29-10.67%), crude fibre (0.13-3.85%) and carbohydrate (33.95-49.58%). Pineapple-carrot jam blends at a blending ratio of 75:25 revealed better qualities in terms of aroma, taste, spreadability and overall acceptability. Based on the data gathered from the study, it can be concluded that pineapple-carrot jam has good sensory qualities and can be utilised to make jam and other processed products to add value to the fruit and vegetable.

Published: May 2022

Background: Pyometra is a pathological state of the compromised uterus of grown-up to old, diestrum bitches. Pyometra is easy to identify but can be more challenging when there is no vaginal discharge. In the present study, an attempt was made to find out the pathogen involvement and clinico-haemato-biochemical alteration in bitches affected with Pyometra. \ Methods: Twelve bitches with a history of inappetence, polydipsia, dirty vaginal discharge, occasional vomition irrespective of breeds and age groups were clinically examined and diagnosed as pyometra. The presumptive clinical diagnosis was based on case history, clinical signs, vaginal cytology, abdominal ultrasonography or radiography, gross examination of a pus-filled uterus after the ovariohysterectomy. Result: Vaginal examination revealed brown chocolate malodorous vaginal discharge with discolouration of the perivulval tissue. Abdominal ultrasound showed hyperplasia with echogenic material in the uterine wall along with distended uterine horns containing a large volume of cellular contents. Radiographic imaging revealed cranio-dorsal displacement of the small intestine and a twisted uniform tubular opacity with a distended uterus. The vaginal cytology revealed a large number of degenerated neutrophils, intermediate and parabasal cells. Escherichia coli were the major pathogen isolated from the pyometra uteri of bitches. The surface of the endometrium was columnar ciliated epithelium, with hyperplasia of subepithelial tissue and thick muscularis. The haemato-biochemical evaluation in pyometra infected bitches revealed decreased haemoglobin (Hb), packed cell volume (PCV), total erythrocytic count (TEC) and lymphocyte count indicating the microcytic hypochromic type of anaemia. Leucocytosis with a predominant absolute neutrophilia and lymphocytosis were consistently found in canine pyometra. There was a significantly elevated profile of blood urea nitrogen, creatinine, transaminases and alkaline phosphatase as well as total proteins observed in pyometric female dogs as compared to healthy ones which may have diagnostic and prognostic importance, which also indicated damage of vital organ caused by bacterial endotoxins. The haemato-biochemical indices correlating with imaging techniques, vaginal cytology and histopathological examination can serve as good prognostic markers in bitches with pyometra.

Background: Among various biotic factors limiting pigeon pea yield, weeds are of prime importance which can causes seed yield losses up to 80 per cent. Therefore current study aims to evaluate the impact of imidazolinones on weeds in pigeon pea (Cajanus cajan L.). Methods: The experiment was laid out in randomized block design using eighteen treatments replicated thrice. To control the weeds in pigeon pea, imidazolinones alone and its combination with pendimethalin were applied and rest other cultural practices for cultivation of pigeon pea were adopted according to the package and practices of CCA HAU, Hisar. Result: Among all weed controls treatments, two hoeing at 40 and 70 DAS found most effective to control all kind of weeds. PRE application of imidazolinones was comparatively more effective than POE application. Among different weed species, Cynodon dactylon was not controlled by any of the herbicide treatment and PRE application of pendimethalin @ 1000 g/ha did not control Digera arvensis and Cyperus rotundus. Whereas, PRE application of pendimethalin + imazethapyr @ 1000 + 75 g/ha provided best control of total weeds leads to lowest nutrient uptake by weeds. Therefore, PRE application of pendimethalin + imazethapyr @ 1000 + 75 g/ha proved to be an effective and a profitable alternative to the existing recommendation (two hoeing at 25 and 45 DAS) of weed control in pigeon pea in Haryana locality.

Authors: Nedostupova Lubov V.
Published: May 2022

The relevance of this research is determined by the growing interest in folk language – the history keeper and the representative of modern knowledge about man. The fixation of unofficial names that mark the linguistic personality in the rural society allows one to see the existing forms of communication and relationships within the collective. The purpose of this study is to describe anthroponymic units that name male according to known facts, imitation of famous people, heroes or similarities to them, nationality or adherents of religion, event or fact from life, culinary preferences in the patois of Vysoky village Talovsky district of Voronezh region, determining the meaning, detection of names-metaphors, clarification of part-of-speech affiliation, emotional as-sessment and productive word-formation suffixes. Rural male unofficial names became the subject of analysis. The object of research is the folk patois. In the course of work, 40 names are identified, represented by 4 thematic groups. It is proven that the most productive are anthroponyms based on known facts, imitating famous people, unproductive – nicknames based on nationality. The names-metaphors with the meanings contained in them correspond to different nominations: berry, flour culinary product, sweet food, leader of the proletariat, leader of the USSR, President of the United States, heroes and director of a film and cartoon, character of a poem, gladiator, general, hockey player, actor and many others. etc. A few nicknames are indicated that cause positive associations associated with state officials and famous people. Names with a negative emotional assessment, causing condemnation by the villagers, are noted. Among the productive ways of word formation are the suffix and the transition from one part of speech to another. The conclusion is made: only indigenous people are carriers of the considered anthroponymic units. The use of street names in your team allows you to maintain a peculiar form of communication, which differs in its norms and rules, throughout a person’s life.
On the issue of the need to study crime in the field of compulsory health insurance
Authors: PUZYREVA Kristina Y.
Published: May 2022

Extreme pressures on the Russian healthcare system that arose at the height of the COVID-19 make re-searchers pay attention to ways to ensure the medical industry working capacity. Financial sustainability is a re-source factor for the functioning and efficiency of healthcare. Corruption and economic crimes harm the health care system, thereby inhibiting its development and leading to financial destabilization. The purpose of study is to analyze the proposed formation and study of a special type of crime “in the field of compulsory medical insurance”. As the objectives of the undertaken research, we define the review of the social insurance model of the healthcare organization functioning in Russia, the identification of features of crimes in the field of compulsory medical insurance, the development of criminological concepts for the knowledge of crime in the field of compulsory medical insurance. The methodological basis of the study included a dialectical method, which allowed us to consider the principle of building the Russian social insurance model of the health organization and the nature of the crimes committed by medical workers in terms of their interrelation and dynamics; a classification method by which it was possible to systematize crimes in the field of compulsory health insurance; a formal legal method that allowed us to look at the phenomena under consideration from the point of view of their legal regulation. We make an attempt to detect a new group of crimes in the official statistical reporting. The work is the result of study of cases related to illegal receipt of funds by doctors and executives of medical organizations of private and state ownership. An assumption is made about the “economic” nature of crimes committed in the field of compulsory health insurance (for example, fraud). The research should be the first step towards the formation and study of a new type of crime and its indicators.
Compliance as a tool for managing legal risks: to raise the issue of maintaining a balance of interests between the business community and public control (supervision) bodies
Authors: BROSALINA Aleksandra A.
Published: May 2022

The development of a market-based management system as an integral attribute of the economic policy of the Russian Federation is possible only with the introduction of legal and organizational measures to stimulate entrepreneurial activity, as well as to minimize the manifestation of possible violations by business structures in it. The research is based on a hypothesis about the possible role of compliance in establishing a balance of private and public interests in the implementation of control and supervisory activities by public administration bodies. The purpose of work is a scientific analysis of the concept of “compliance”, its legal nature and content, as well as the study of problems and prospects for the implementation of its universal form – antimonopoly compliance as a means that allows to maintain a balance of interests between public control bodies and business sector. The methodological basis included the dialectical method, a group of general scientific methods of cognition – the method of analysis and synthesis, the structural method, as well as private scientific – formal legal and comparative legal methods. Within the framework of the research, the features of compliance in the activities of business entities are analyzed, analytical and regulatory legal materials related to the implementation of antimonopoly compliance in Russia and foreign countries are studied. We conclude that antimonopoly compliance can contribute to the independent prevention of violations by business entities, reduce the level of state interference in their activities by reducing the number of inspections by antimonopoly authorities, and also, in combination with a risk-based approach, to a certain extent optimize the system of state control over compliance with antimonopoly legislation.

Published: May 2022

The relevance of work is due to the presence of legal problems of the institution of criminal case termina-tion, which have accumulated in recent years and the need to develop measures for the legal regulation of this sphere of legal relations. The purpose of work is to study the institute of criminal case termination as an object of legal regulation. The objectives of the study are to identify trends in the development of the institution of criminal case termination, emerging legal contradictions, respect for the rights of participants in the process, as well as developing proposals and recommendations for solving existing problems. We use classical methods of legal research: analysis, synthesis, generalization of law enforcement practice, logic. Based on the analysis of legislation, decisions of higher courts and law enforcement practice, a conclusion is made about the emerging trends in the field of reforming the institution of criminal case termination, primarily related to the realization of the right of persons to rehabilitation. We substantiate the conclusion that the power to terminate the criminal case in the sense of understanding it as a final decision should be entrusted to the court, since in its essence this is its resolution on the merits. We prove the need to reform the institution of criminal case termination, however, the legislator should focus on correcting its contradictions, inaccuracies and existing gaps in order to bring it into line with the norms enshrined in the Constitution of the Russian Federation, the principles proclaimed by it and the purpose of criminal proceedings.
Why always male bodies? 2.0
Authors: Fontolan Marina
Published: May 2022

Gender studies and underwater archaeology is a theme still rarely explored together. In this paper, I aim at reanalyzing the data presented in the paper “Why Always Male Bodies?”, written by Marina Fontolan in 2013. In it, I discuss theoretical aspects of gender studies, the context in the history of archaeology, and the non-neutrality of image building. Then, I recover the data presented in the mentioned paper and reanalyze the data. The paper concludes that underwater archaeology, as in the case of other science fields, excluded both women and people who identify with other gender identities from being represented in their books and manuals.
