HİKMET BAYUR'UN NAZARINDAN KEMALİZM
Authors: ÇAKMAK İsmail , PEHLİVANLI Hamit
Published: June 2022

Kemalizm, Mustafa Kemal’in görüşleri ve uygulamalarından teşekkül eden bir cereyandır. 1930’ların başlarında da bu cereyan ete kemiğe bürünmeye başlar. Kemalizm’den önce “Kemalist” tabiri de Mustafa Kemal’in muhitini belirleyen bir tanımlama olmuştur. Bazı kaynaklar da Millî Mücadele hareketini “Kemalist bir hareket” olarak adlandırmıştır. Biri, “ideolojik bir kimlik” üzerine inşa edilirken, diğeri bunun haricinde, daha çok şahıs etrafında halkalanan bir “muhit” görünümündedir. Neticede her ikisinin merkezinde “Mustafa Kemal” vardır. Kemalizm, tarihsel bir zeminde Mustafa Kemal’in düşüncelerine bir “merbutiyet” olarak belirmiştir. Mustafa Kemal’in yakın çevresinde bulunan şahıslar da bu bağlılıklarını Kemalizm fikrî içinde canlı tutmuşlardır. Bu şahıslardan biri de Mustafa Kemal’in iki defa Genel Sekreterliğini yapmış olan Hikmet Bayur’dur. Millî Mücadele yıllarından başlayan bu yakınlık, Mustafa Kemal’in ölümüne kadar devam etmiş, sonra da fikrî bir bağlılık olarak varlığını sürdürmüştür. Bayur, Mustafa Kemal’in yaşamında birçok hadiseye tanıklık etmiş, bunlardan bazılarını da makalelerinde aktarmıştır. Bayur, sonraki yıllarında Mustafa Kemal’in fikir ve görüşlerinden hiç ayrılmamış ve onun getirdiği kazanımların da savunucusu olmuştur. 1950’li yıllarda çıkmaya başlayan “İnkılâp Gençliği” dergisinde Mustafa Kemal ve Kemalizme dair fikirlerini dile getirmiştir. Bayur’un nazarından Kemalizm; getirdiği kazanımlarla mazinin “menfi” yüklerinden kurtulmanın, “yeni Türkiye”nin şekillenmesinin bir veçhesidir. Bu fikrîn taşıyıcılığı da belli teşekküllerle -Kadro Dergisi- sürdürülmüştür. Bayur, Mustafa Kemal ve Kemalizme olan koşulsuz bağlılığını her daim takdis etmiş, ömrünün sonuna kadar da bu bağlılıktan vazgeçmemiştir.

Plant-based cosmeceuticals typically contain parts of the plant that have antibacterial, antioxidant, and anti-aging properties. Daily Cleansing does not remove dead epithelial cells and impurities trapped in the skin pores of. These dead cells and impurities affect the lifespan of the skin when they are trapped in the pores of the skin, resulting in a reduction in skin lifespan, acne and acne. The solution to this problem is to use facial scrubs once or twice a week. It contains exfoliating, mild, natural traditional ingredients. Herbal Face Wash Gel plays an important role in improving cosmetology. Composed of substances such as amino acids, fats and carbohydrates, a balanced diet is required to keep your skin clear, shiny and healthy. The use of natural ingredients to combat acne and wrinkles and to control the secretion of oil is called natural or herbal cosmetics. General face Scrubbers contain crushed seeds to remove dead skin cells, but these crushed seeds are not uniform in size and finely crushed particles cause skin to fall or damage. Overcome To solve this problem, replace the crushed seeds with granules or beads. This safely removes dead cells from the pores of the skin without damaging the skin. Making biodegradable polyherbal microbeads into face scrubber gram powder, green tea, sugar, starch, milk, skin care oils, etc. is a very good attempt. In these refined beads, the outer shell is made of Gram meal and the inner is oil and plant extract. Massage with the outer layer of this pearl will remove dead skin cells and darkening, and the oil inside will spread to the skin, contributing to the growth of new fresh cells. The result is always a young and fresh look.

Apart from causing tragic loss of lives and valuable natural and individual properties including thousands of hectares of forest and hundreds of houses, forest fires are a great menace to ecologically healthy grown forests and protection of the environment. Every year, thousands of forest fire across the globe cause disasters beyond measure and description. This issue has been the research interest for many years; there are a huge amount of very well studied solutions available out there for testing or even ready for use to resolve this problem. Forest and urban fires have been and still are serious problem for many countries in the world. Currently, there are many different solutions to detect the forest fires. People are using sensors to detect the fire. But this case is not possible for large acres of forest. In this paper, we discuss a new approach for fire detection, in which modern technologies are used. In particular, we propose a platform that Artificial Intelligence. The computer vision methods for recognition and detection of smoke and fire, based on the still images or the video input from the cameras. Deep learning method “convolution neural network “for finding the amount of smoke and fire. The accuracy is based on the algorithm which we are going to use and the datasets and splitting them into train set and test set.

Once the network is trained, its validation and subsequent testing is performed, obtaining overall accuracies of 85.4%, showing the features learned by the network and verifying the ability of this configuration of neural network to be used in applications for identification and verification of offline signatures.
Overview of Neural Network
Authors: Chirag
Published: June 2022

Neural network is a machine learning method evolved from the idea of having look of the human brain, a data processing system which includes large number of simple, highly interconnected processing elements in an architecture inspired by the structure of the cerebral cortex portion of the brain. Hence, neural networks are often capable of doing things which humans or animals do well but which conventional computers often do poorly. Neural networks have emerged in the past few years as an area of unusual opportunity for research, development and application to a variety of real world problems. Indeed, neural networks exhibit characteristics and capabilities not provided by any other technology. Here are some of the examples human handwriting, reading typewritten text, compensating for alignment errors in robots, modeling complex systems that cannot be modelled mathematically, and predicting whether proposed loans will be good or fail. This paper presents a brief tutorial on neural networks and briefly describes several applications.

Published: June 2022

The most severe type of alcohol abuse is alcohol dependency. It is a chronic disease marked by excessive alcohol intake that compromises physical and mental health, as well as familial and social obligations. Despite major health, family, or legal issues, an alcoholic would continue to drink. Both hereditary and environmental variables have an impact on it. Yoga is often less expensive than other professional interventions for stress reduction and self-soothing. Yogasana and pranayama, when done correctly and on a regular basis, can help to quiet the mind and relieve stress.
Role of Yoga in Sports Injury
Authors: Kritika Dobhal  , Dr. Anil Thapliyal

Yoga has been around for around 5,000 years. Yoga has spawned a slew of schools and organisations throughout the years. Finding a yoga style that connects with you can be intimidating as first. If you're a competitive athlete, it's best to match your yoga practise to your training programme because some sports focus on developing specific muscle groups while neglecting others. Over time, this process produces muscle and joint imbalances, resulting in overuse problems. Yoga allows the muscles, tendons, and ligaments to move through their full range of motion, promoting balance and core strength, which is beneficial to players in their chosen sports. "I'm delighted I found yoga and added it to my weekly workout programme," Heidi Resiert, a triathlete from San Diego, said. I'm not only feeling stronger, but I'm also more confident that I won't be hurt again." Breath work is another important aspect of yoga (pranayama). One of the most essential benefits for athletes is paying attention to their breath while doing yoga. Learning to stay focused and centred in painful poses by focusing on even inhalations and exhalations prepares the athlete for a race or a difficult workout. Yoga's mind-body connection is crucial for athletes to improve their mental clarity and attention. Yoga also aids in the relaxation of not only tense muscles, but also worried and agitated minds. Yoga is beneficial not only in the sagittal plane, but also in the frontal and transverse planes, ensuring complete growth. Being more calm will also help you perform better in sports. So, why not integrate yoga to your training regimen today to improve your gaming performance and prevent injury?

Authors: Bourahla S. , Benamara A. Ali , Moustefai S. Kouadri
Published: June 2022

The vibrational spectra of crystalline nitric acid hydrates have been investigated at the periodic ab initio quantum level by using a Gaussian type basis set and the hybrid B3LYP Hamiltonian with CRYSTAL06 code. Using as input the X-ray structures of crystalline nitric acid monohydrate NAM, dihydrate α-NAD and trihydrate β-NAT, the inner coordinates within each unit cell have been optimized. The calculated structures of these atmospherically relevant systems are used in the evaluation of their vibrational normal modes. The obtained theoretical results show in general a good agreement compared to the observed spectra in the range 4000- 600 cm-1 and 200-20 cm-1 for infrared and Low-Frequency Raman spectra, respectively.

Published: June 2022

The study provides an analysis of the strengths; weaknesses; opportunities and threats (SWOT) of the scientific researches carried out in the field of marine environment and fisheries in the Kingdom of Bahrain from 1960s until 2011. Internationally recognized databases such as SCOPUS, E-village, Science Direct, Google were used and 82 articles were collected. A recent bibliography of fisheries issued by the Bahrain Centre for Studies and Research included 328 research titles but only 40 were published in refereed scientific journals and therefore were added. Overall, a total of 122 articles which were published in peer reviewed journals covered a diverse topics and included Fisheries and Fisheries’ Management (18 articles, 14.8%); Ecology of selected habitats (29 articles or 23.8%); Biology of fishes, oysters, crabs, sea urchins, mollusk and shrimps (20 articles or 16.4%); Mari-culture technology, management and fish feed (9 articles or 7.4%); Pollution monitoring in biota, sediment and water including bacteriological studies (45 articles, 36.9%) and Recreation as a management resource (1 article or 0.8%). Pollution received the highest proportion of research interests followed by Ecology and Fisheries. Despite the amount of efforts that were made, gaps in our knowledge of the marine environment and marine organisms of Bahrain remain wide. There is a need for more research in this field of studies. If more data gathered in a collaborated manner on a regular basis, it would be an invaluable management resource for both fisheries and the wellbeing of the marine environment in Bahrain.

Authors: Baig Mirza Barjees , Aldosari Fahad
Published: June 2022

holistan Desert located in the Eastern Pakistan and Sothern part of Punjab province is an extension of Great Indian Desert. Spreading over an area of about 2.6 million hectares (26,000 km2), the sandy desert with an annual mean rainfall varying from 100-250 mm has hot, dry and arid climate. The population of the desert has touched the figure of 110,000. Although ecological and climatic conditions for all the living organisms are extremely poor and relatively hard and harsh yet livestock sector is supporting the livelihoods of its inhabitants. The area is subjected to the prime issues like: extreme scarcity of water, drought conditions, over-grazing, deforestation, wind erosion, salinity. In the past, Cholistan Desert was the home to the many wildlife species but unfortunately this natural resource is vanishing fast. The paper presents an overview of the available resources of the area; provides the critical analyses of the strategies/interventions tried so far and examines the available options to realize sustainable development. The paper aims at reclaiming the desert lands and converting them into productive ecosystems (at least to the possible extent( by conserving its precious natural resources like: lands, water, flora and fauna; and identifying the alternate measures to elevate the livelihood of desert dwellers. The secondary data were used to make inferences, draw conclusions and suggest remedial measures. Through sustainable strategies, the rich heritage of desert biodiversity can be conserved and promoted. A holistic approach comprising of the initiatives like: Rural Extension and Development Initiatives (REDI); Improved Water Harvesting Techniques (IWHT); Saline Agriculture Approach, Desert-based Aquaculture (DBA), and improved water storage facilities are imperative to launch in order to make the desert greener. Innovative technologies discussed in the article could possibly reclaim the desert; sustain more vegetation to feed a greater number of animal units. Such initiatives if taken have the potential to elevate the livelihood of inhabitants of Cholistan Desert.
RELATIONSHIP BETWEEN PSYCHOSOCIAL HEALTH AND DRUG USE AMONG STREET CHILDREN IN STAREHE SUB-COUNTY, NAIROBI COUNTY KENYA
Authors: O’gallo Brian Ochieng’
Published: June 2022

Life in the streets is not easy. It has immense negative effects on the psychosocial health of street children which could result in substance use. This study set out to examine the relationship between psycho-social health and drug use among street children in Starehe Sub-County, Nairobi County Kenya. This study was based on the Problem Behaviour Theory (PBT). This study adopts the correlational research design. Data were collected from 100 street children. These were sampled using cluster and simple random sampling techniques from a target population of 30,000 in the Starehe Sub-County of Nairobi County. In addition, data was collected from purposively sampled four officials from the Starehe Children’s Office, eight officials of NGO/FBO operating in the sub-county, 1 sub-county administrator, and 4 ward administrators from the Sub-County. The qualitative data collected using questionnaires were analyzed using descriptive statistics like mean, percentage, and frequencies, as well as inferential statistics such as Pearson correlation and regression analysis. The findings obtained were presented using charts and tables. The qualitative data collected using interviews were analyzed thematically. The findings were then presented in prose. The findings show that psychosocial health affected drug use among street children. Pearson correlation showed that there was a significant relationship between drug use and psychosocial health, r=0.503. The findings show that the measures put in place to enhance the mental health of street children made had significant influences on their drug use. There is also a need to provide street children with homes to reduce exposure to stressful conditions that could lead to mental health problems. Regular free mental healthcare clinics should also be availed for all street children. Raising awareness and sensitizing the street children on the negative implications of drugs is also important. There is a need to strengthen behaviour counseling, support groups, and sober social networks for street children. The government and non-governmental organizations should come up with programs for supporting access to counseling services. Some of the street children should also be trained to prop up their abilities to offer peer counseling services to their colleagues.
Student views on effective and ineffective learning on graduate level applied statistics courses
Authors:   Virginia Polytechnic Institute & State University, Belli Gabriella
Published: June 2022

Applied or service statistics courses are often viewed by students with something less than enthusiasm. Instructors of such courses have argued for the need to alter attitudes and provide more emphasis on real-world problems and issue using real data and computers (e.g. Blalock, 1987; Roberts, 1987; Singer and Willett 1990). In a recent article, Sneetch (1993) reiterated this plea and stipulated that people process information in different ways. Therefore, having different learning styles, they need to be taught with different methods. He concluded by stating that this would result in more favorable attitudes, as well as in greater use of statistical thinking.

The utility of solving simple substitutional cryptograms in statistical education at school level has bee widely demonstrated (see Nemetz, 1993). In England, for example, national, project type competition was organized in 1989 in this area and it has been proved very successful. For the goals and history go these competitions, the reader is referred to Hawkins (1989). there are other similar simple examples within cryptography which can be fruitfully used for demonstrating the power of statistical methods in "real world" problems. This paper discusses one of them, namely the transpositional ciphers. Their solution is a feasible task from middle school years up to university level. At pre-university level, instead of using likelihood ratios, we propose a different statistics, which matches the age of the children and "near optimal". Connection to computer programing is straightforward, applicable both to easy and to more involved tasks, By working through a few examples, the need for applying statistical methods and the nature of the statistical decision will become evident.

With the impact of COVID-19 in the last two years, streaming media that can be played and watched at home is becoming mainstream in the United States. Disney, the world’s largest entertainment company, is facing the closure of its theme parks, a lack of sports programming at ESPN (Entertainment Sports Programming Network), layoffs and the suspension of live movies. Netflix is an innovative company focused on streaming and has been at the forefront of deals for nearly a decade. In the past two years, it has also made great achievements in the field of independent IP research and development. Netflix, meanwhile, has used the pandemic as a springboard to record numbers of new subscribers. In order to explore whether Netflix, Disney’s main potential competitor in the streaming industry, will affect Disney’s future business development, this paper selects financial input indicators and output indicators of Disney and Netflix from 2003 to 2021, and uses DEAP2.1 software to calculate and analyze the streaming media operation efficiency of the two companies in 19 years from the perspective of output. The results show that Netflix has excellent streaming media operation efficiency from 2003 to 2021, while Disney has poor streaming media operation efficiency. Results of the streaming media operation efficiency of Disney and Netflix from the perspective of comprehensive efficiency decomposition can highlight the allocation of streaming media operation from the perspective of relaxation variable value and achieve DEA effective target value.
How Does Ownership Structure Affect Business Performance?-A Study based on 2021 Fortune 500 Retail Industry Enterprise
Authors: Chen Si-Ning
Published: June 2022

This paper mainly analyzes the impact of ownership concentration on corporate financial performance from the perspective of ownership structure and company financial performance. The equity concentration is mainly demonstrated from the proportion of the largest shareholder’s shareholding, and the financial performance is mainly demonstrated from three aspects: solvency, operating ability, and profitability. It is to study whether the ownership structure is related to the financial performance of the retail industry and how to pass change corporate ownership structure to improve corporate financial performance. Based on the analysis of the ownership structure and financial performance data of 14 retail companies in the “2021 Fortune 500”, EViews 10 software was used to process the data. Results of the study demonstrate that when the state-owned holding factor is included, the shareholding ratio of the largest shareholder has a significant negative correlation with company performance. This also means that, for enterprises in the retail industry, the higher the degree of equity concentration of the enterprise, the less conducive to the growth of the financial performance of the enterprise.
Employing Project Work in a Vietnamese EFL Undergraduate Class to Promote Autonomy
Authors: Phan Thao Thi Thanh
Published: June 2022

This paper investigates an attempt to stimulate autonomous practices among EFL (English as a Foreign Language) learners in Vietnam. While recent educational policies have advocated the development of learner autonomy in English language teaching and learning, approaches taken to support autonomy can sometimes be limited. In this paper, we reported the participation of one teaching colleague and twenty-six students in an action research project. Data sources included two rounds of interview and test between which a project work was conducted. Autonomy-supporting priorities included goal setting, planning, implementing and evaluation. The findings indicated that traditional pedagogy impacts on language learner autonomy to some extent. However, there was strong evidence that the development of project work can help Vietnamese learners to take greater control over their own learning. Pedagogical practices of autonomous learning through the use of project work in Vietnam and the region are suggested.

Poultry farm is important commodity in Indonesia. It provides protein source as Indonesian consume varies kind of its product such as meats (chicken, duck and quail) and eggs. In Indonesia, rearing activities were differentiated into three types such as extensive traditional system, semi-intensive system, and intensive system. All these systems have same problem relate to outbreak of viral disease. One of viral disease causes annual outbreak is Newcastle Disease. It is caused by infection of Avian Paramyxovirus serotype 1. It infects varies avian species such as pigeons, ostrich, water fowl, chicken, and cockatoo. Control such as vaccination has been conducted but it could not protect the poultry from Newcastle Disease Virus (NDV) infection. It is noted that the protectivity of seed vaccine is influenced by the epitopes generates various protectivity level of the vaccination program. Sub-unit vaccine could become the best choice to protect NDV infection. Molecular analyses were conducted to obtain B cell epitopes which could induce immune system safely. Sample of pigeons (Columba livia) were collected from live bird market in Surabaya. The collected sample showed clinical signs such as respiratory disturbance, limping, loss of appetite and subclinical enteric disturbance/diarrhea. Two out of four samples were serologically confirmed to be infected with NDV (Pigeon/Surabaya/2019/01 and Pigeon/Surabaya/2019/03). Molecular approach was conducted to obtain the nucleotide sequence of the samples. The sequence was employed to epitope analyses by using Kolaskar-Tongaonkar antigenicity and Emini surface accessibility softwares. Obtained epitopes were analyzed using Vaxijen, Allertop, and ToxinPred to confirm that the epitopes are safely to be applied. Peptides were obtained from NDV infecting pigeons were noted has possibility to become seed vaccine candidate. Several peptides were obtained from Pigeon/Surabaya/2019/01 and Pigeon/Surabaya/2019/03; SWVYIHLLSTF, CTNVCLSEIQLLHSFA, VRPCMVIVRL, NLTGRKRRTVG and SDREYSQAIAR passed the in-silico screenings. These epitopes are possibly to be used as sub-unit vaccine to eradicate Newcastle Disease Virus.
