Kejujuran Salah Satu Pendongkrak Pendidikan Karakter di Sekolah
Authors: . Fadillah
Published: June 2020

Kejujuran sebagai suatu  nilai , seharusnya  tidak lagi dipandang sebagai harga material, yang hanya sebatas kebutuhan hidup saja, tetapi  menjadi harga yang immaterial, sehingga telah menjadi esensi hidup yang akan melekat pada diri, yang tidak lekang oleh kondisi dan waktu. Hal ini akan ditunjukkan bahwa seseorang yang telah menghayati nilai kejujuran akan terdorong untuk bersikap dan bertindak jujur kepada orang lain bahkan terhadap dirinya sendiri, karena pada dirinya telah tertanam sistem nilai dan keyakinan sistem, yang mengharuskannya untuk berperilaku jujur. Menyikapi secara kritis, begitu pentingnya menumbuhkembangkan  nilai kejujuran,  karena merupakan konsekuensi logis dari keberadaan (eksistensi) serta hakikat manusia sebagai makhluk sosial dan makhluk berbudaya, yang dapat dilakukan melalui pendidikan. Membangun karakter melalui pendidikan , tidak hanya pada tataran konsep tetapi mampu dicerna untuk dapat diaplikasikan dalam kehidupan . Dengan demikian akan tumbuh pribadi yang mandiri yang tidak menggantungkan hidup dari pihak atau individu lain. Dan ini perlu dilakukan sejak  dini. Jika peserta didik, tak dibangun karakternya, maka yang akan menjadi pemimpin di masa depan nanti, adalah individu-individu yang mudah tunduk pada kepentingan-kepentingan individu atau kelompok lain yang memiliki kepentingan ,yang bisa berakibat negatif dan fatal.

Contribution of records management to audit opinions and accountability in government
Authors: David Rodreck
Published: June 2020

Background: Auditing can support national democratic processes, national development and government good will. Supreme Audit Institutions (SAI), such as offices of Auditor General, publish consolidated reports on audit outcomes for local authorities, government departments, parastatals and related public entities. These reports identify broad areas analysed during audit exercises that often include financial management, governance, asset management, risk management, revenue collection and debt recovery. They highlight trends that were detected during audit exercises at the end of a financial year. The reports further show how records and records management affect audit exercises as well as financial management within the audited institutions.Objectives: The intention of the research was to ascertain the contribution of records management to audit opinions and accountability in financial management in Zimbabwean government entities.Method: A document analysis of Comptroller and Auditor General of Zimbabwe (CAGZ)’s reports was used to identify the types of decisions and recommendations (audit opinions) issued, in juxtaposition to the records management issues raised.Results and Conclusion: This study shows that there is a strong correlation between records management concerns and audit opinions raised by the CAGZ’s narrative audit reports. Inadequate records management within government entities was associated with adverse and qualified opinions and, in some cases, unqualified opinions that had emphases of matter. There was a causal loop in which lack of documentary evidence of financial activities was the source cause of poor accounting and poor audit reports. Errors resulting from incomplete or inaccurate records meant that government entities were not showing a true picture of their financial status and their financial statements could be materially misstated. As an important monitoring and control system, records management should be integrated into the accounting and auditing processes of government entities.

Becoming an interpreter through experience: The perceptions of the non-professional public service interpreters in Turkey
Authors: POLAT ULAŞ Aslı
Published: June 2020

Public service interpreting is a type of interpreting that eliminates the language barrier between migrants/refugees and officials of the host country's public institutions. In many countries, it is still an activity performed by friends, family members or neighbors of the minority-language speaker, namely untrained individuals (Wadensjö, 2009), and in many other countries, it is an activity, for which training might be optional, and the remuneration is rather lower than that for conference interpreting (Hale, 2015:66), which are the major factors hindering the professionalization. Likewise, in Turkey, especially in the face of the increased refugee population in recent years, mostly individuals who speak the relevant languages but who have not received interpreter training provide interpreting services in institutions. In this regard, this study addresses the public service interpreters working at the units of the Association for Solidarity with Asylum Seekers and Migrants (SGDD-ASAM), one of the non-governmental organizations (NGOs) in Turkey that provides a wide-scale service to refugees. More specifically, the practitioners' perceptions regarding their interpreting experiences will be discussed based on the data collected through semi-structured interviews and questionnaires. Moreover, the data from the institutional document and the interviews conducted with the institution officials will be used as supplementary data to the discussion. Based on the available data, it can be said the practitioners’ perceptions regarding their interpreting experiences are generally centered around the issues of exercise of restricted agency and awareness of institutional and professional ethics, which also manifest their alignment with the institutional identity and role projected for them.

Published: June 2020

The purpose of this longitudinal study was to investigate the Translation and Interpreting Department students’ general notions about translation at the beginning, in the middle, and in the final year of their education. The participants were prep year, second year, and fourth-year students who were enrolled in the Department of Translation and Interpreting at Adana Alparslan Türkeş Science and Technology University between 2015 and 2020. The data were collected through the General Notions about Translation Questionnaire developed by Orozco (2000) and interviews conducted with randomly chosen students in the department. The data were analyzed using descriptive statistics and content analysis methods. The data collection tools aimed to explore changes in students’ perceptions about general notions about translation throughout their education. The results showed that the participating students’ general notions about translation indicated changes in several aspects throughout their education in the department. How students defined translation in general, elements that intervene in translation, basic unit of translation, kinds of translation, instruments that can help translators, vocabulary problems, and ideas about a translator’s knowledge and performance were found to have changed according to the class level they were enrolled in. The findings are expected to shed light on the translation education processes and explore changes in students’ notions.

Published: June 2020

Background: Gallbladder surgeries are among the commonest major abdominal operations and to continuously improve the procedure many variants have developed that need evidence-based comparison in terms of frequency common bile duct (CBD) clearance, the mean operative time and hospital stay, and rate of adverse outcomes (post-operative pancreatitis). Through this study, we aimed to compare the surgical outcome of single-stage Endoscopic Retrograde Cholangio-Pancreatography (ERCP) with LC in comparison to two-stage ERCP.

Methodology: This prospective study was conducted on a sample of 190 diagnosed patients (chosen via non-probability consecutive sampling) of cholelithiasis with choledocholithiasis, aged between 20 to 70 years who were scheduled to undergo surgery at the Ziauddin University Hospital, Karachi. The patients were divided into two equal groups (Group A: Single-stage ERCP & LC, and Group B: Two-stage ERCP followed by interval LC). After taking written informed consent, data pertaining to surgical outcome were recorded onto a pre-structured questionnaire and analyzed using SPSS Version 23.0.

Results: The demographic and clinical characteristics of both the groups were similar and so were the success rates. Adverse events free and positive outcomes were reported in 95.79% and 90.53% of the patients in groups A and B respectively. Post-operative pancreatitis was reported more often among the patients of group B. The length of hospital stay and costs were lower among Group A patients despite the longer operative times in this group.

Conclusion: Patients in group A yield better surgical outcomes, giving single-stage ERCP & LC the edge over two-stage ERCP followed by interval LC. Thus, single-stage ERCP & LC is recommended as the method of choice.

Published: June 2020

The insecticidal effects of stem bark powder of Azadirachta indica and leaf powder of Eucalyptus camaldulensis on weevils of stored maize grains was carried out. Four levels: 5.0g, 10.0g, 15.0g and 20.0g of each of the vegetative parts (as treatments) and 0.0g as control were replicated four (4) times, making 36 plots (bottles). These were represented as 36 bottles (kilner jars) each containing 100g of maize, arranged in two separate sets of 16 bottles for each of the vegetative parts. The remaining 4 served as the control, at 0.0g levels. Stem bark powder of Azadirachta indica 5.0, 10.0, 15.0 and 20.0g were introduced into the first set. While the leaf powder of Eucalyptus at 5.0, 10.0, 15.0 and 20.0g were introduced into the second set, followed by vigorous shaking. 30 young adult maize weevils were carefully introduced into each of the bottles and covered with a perforated lid lined with muslin mesh (1.0mm). The bottles and its contents were arranged in a Completely Randomize Design (CRD) for 336 hours (14 days) and 432 hours (18 days) for Eucalyptus and Neem respectively. 10 healthy grains per replicate were sown into polythene pots containing uniform potting mixture of top soil, river sand and cow dung in a ratio of 1:1:1 at the end of the trail. Parameters assessed include mortality, % mortality weight loss, perforation and perforation index (for the insecticidal experiment) and % germination, for the post trail experiments. Result obtained showed a progressive increase in mortality and % mortality, with analysis of variance (ANOVA) not significantly different (P>0.05) at 48 hours after treatment (HAT), but significant (P<0.05) between 96 and 432 HAT. Weight loss, perforation and perforation index were inversely related to the concentrations of the two powder sources, in which cases, the ANOVA of these parameters showed significant different (P<0.05). The % germination obtained did not show much variation despite the significant difference indicated by the ANOVA, thus revealing the preservation potentials of the plant powders.

Published: June 2020

The optical properties of the Poly (3 - octylthiophene) (P3OT) – Poly (methyl methacrylate) (PMMA) polymer blend films at different percentage weight ratios of P3OT polymer were prepared using casting method. The optical absorbance and transmittance spectra of these films were measured in the wavelength range 300 – 1100 nm for different weight ratios of P3OT polymer using UV-Visible double - beam spectrophotometer. These optical spectra were used to determine the optical properties of the prepared polymer films. The main optical parameters of the polymer blend film, such as, reflectance (R), absorption coefficient (α), extinction coefficient (k), refractive index (n), real and imaginary parts of dielectric constant (εr and εi), and optical energy band gap (Eg), were determined. The effect of the weight ratio of P3OT polymer on these parameters was studied. The results showed that the prepared P3OT – PMMA polymer blend films exhibited suitable optical properties for the applications of solar cells, optical sensors, and photonic devices.
RUSSIAN CONQUEST OF CENTRAL ASIA: A CASE STUDY OF KHIVA
Authors: Ullah Altaf , Bodla Akhtar Rasool
Published: June 2020

Mankind is witnessed to the fact that imperialism has been exhibiting in human history in many forms since long. Subjugation was the earliest form of it where in an empire overpowered an alien society, exploited its land, raw material and subjected it to the service of the superior authority. A similar formula of exploiting the land and people of Central Asia has been assumed by the Russian Imperial power during the nineteenth century. The imperial move of Russia towards this region was considered as the ultimate consequence of a continuous process of expansion of the Russian Empire. This expansionist drive of Russia into the region has been attributed to several factors such as political, military, strategic and above all the economic factor is believed to be the dominant one. The conquest provided the Russian Tsars a golden opportunity to hold their control over a vast area of striking geographic and human diversity. The motives behind this conquest were multidimensional, interrelated and complex. During this process of expansion, the state of Khiva was the first priority of the Russian Empire while materializing their future programme and policies. Though the Empire had already attempted to occupy the state, yet it could not get success prior to 1873. The importance of Khiva cannot be ignored while dealing with the question of Russian conquest of Central Asia in general and Khiva in particular.

Authors: Chatterjee Shankar
Published: June 2020

When human waste (feces) is not managed well, it pollutes water, food, and soil with germs and leads to diarrhea and other health problems. Using toilets prevents germs from getting into the environment and protects the health. Keeping in mind of the issue, the World Toilet Organization was established in 2001 with the aim to break the taboo around toilets and the sanitation crisis. Since 2001, World Toilet Organization lobbied governments, public and private sector stakeholders and the international community to prioritize sanitation in the development agenda. In India, in addition to Government of India and respective state Governments, one NGO viz., Gramalaya based on its office at Tiruchirappalli district of Tamil Nadu has been doing praiseworthy work as Gramalaya has been promoting SMART toilets (S - Safe and Sustainable, M – Maintainable, A – Affordable, R - Recyclable (waste), T - Technically perfect) under the leadership of its Founder Chairman Shri. S. Damodaran. Also, Gramalaya has been producing sustainable sanitary pads (washable) for the menstrual girls and women for their better health and hygiene under the trade name of FeelFree. In this research article, activities of Gramalaya by constructing SMART toilets were studied by the author at Budalur block of Thanjavur district also locally known as Tanjore district of Tamil Nadu in September 2019. These toilets were under Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR), funded by Lion Dates Impex Private limited. Lion Dates Company is India's largest date processing and trading company. The Company has factories located in Tamil Nadu. The Lion Dates brand is available across 29 states and 7 union territories in India.

Published: June 2020

Objective: Nodal status is still the most important independent prognostic factor in breast cancer. In this study, we aimed to investigate the effect of lymph node revealing solution (LNRS) on the number and diameter of removed lymph nodes and nodal staging.

Study Design: Consecutive 150 patients, diagnosed breast carcinoma, were included in the study. After excising the lymph nodes by the traditional method, remaining axillary tissue was immersed in LNRS for 6-12 hours. lymph nodes, which stood out as white chalky nodules, were excised and processed as usual.

Results: An increase of 5.80 (32.03%) in the number of lymph nodes per case was observed, which was statistically significant. The diameters of the lymph nodes removed with LNRS were smaller compared to the classical method, and this was statistically significant as well. Furthermore, the LINES changed nodal stage of the disease in five of the studied cases.

Conclusions: LNRS increases the number of lymph nodes that are removed and detects smaller lymph nodes. It may be an alternative method in cases with removed lymph nodes are critical number or under. Thus, accurate nodal staging and prognostic information will be obtained by using LNRS and more accurate treatment management will be provided.
DEMONSTRATION OF ELECTROMAGNETIC RADIATION FROM MAGNETITE LIKE RESPIRABLE AIR POLLUTION PARTICULATES SUPPORTING EPIDEMIOLOGICAL FINDINGS IN CANCER GENESIS
Authors: Embí Abrahám A.
Published: June 2020

The purpose of this manuscript is to expand on previous findings where an abrupt change in light electromagnetic spectrum was noticed during blood coagulation. In vitro experiments are introduced showing an electromagnetic radiation effect expressed as color changes observed on fresh blood smears undergoing water evaporation. Foreign particles, such as magnetized magnetite fragments and paramagnetic iron filings were placed on a fresh blood smear and then monitor and recorded by video-microscopy. The recent introduction of an in vitro blood smear technique allowing for the temporary preservation of fresh blood properties has allowed for this discovery. Recently, a promising use of magnetite as life saving tool by controlling internal bleeding was proposed; in vitro studies confirmed a decrease in hemostasis time in a blood vessel by a factor of 6.5. Magnetite is described as an iron oxide that occurs naturally on Earth, and has been detected in the form or nanoparticles in the human brain; which is attributed to biogenic (produced by living organisms) or anthropological particles (environmental pollutants) causes. Additionally, magnetite was researched and found to be non-toxic; to the point of obtaining having FDA approval to be used as a contrast media infusion in the blood stream to improve diagnostic procedures, such as in Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI).

Purpose: To compare the results of arthroscopic capsular release of frozen shoulder with the tenotomy of the long head of biceps tendon versus capsular release without long head of biceps tenotomy. Methods: This is a prospective study that will include forty patients with resistant frozen shoulder presenting to El- Hadra University Hospital, Alexandria, Egypt. Arthroscopic release will be performed on twenty patients with biceps tenotomy (group A), while the other twenty patients will undergo arthroscopic release without biceps tenotomy (group B). Patients were evaluated preoperatively, at 2 week and 6 weeks postoperatively as regard Constant and Murley score. Results: In group (A), at the end of the follow up period, the mean score was (84.55 ± 19.32) ranging from 68.0 – 164.0 according to the Constant and Murly shoulder score. (table 5) . In group (B), at the end of the follow up period, the mean score was (79.55 ± 6.85) ranging from 68.0 – 94.0 according to the Constant and Murly shoulder score. . The difference between the means of postoperative total score in both groups was statistically insignificant (p = 0.718). Conclusion: Arthroscopic capsular release is an effective and safe method for treatment of refractory cases of frozen shoulder in which other treatment methods failed. Arthroscopic capsular release, achieves dramatic pain and motion improvement immediately postoperative, allowing very early postoperative rehabilitation. Circumferential capsular release is mandatory to achieve considerable range of shoulder motion in all directions. There are no significant differences between arthroscopic capsular release with biceps tenotomy and without biceps tenotomy regarding to final Constant and Murley score. Internal rotation is the slowest and most difficult motion to recover while gains in forward elevation are achieved the fastest.The improvement in range of external rotation is better than the improvement in the internal rotation. Diabetes mellitus is a bad prognostic risk factor, and the improvement in the range of motion in non-diabetic patients is better than the improvement in diabetic
