La fiscalía, la prisión preventiva y el Principio de Objetividad: desafíos legales, criterios y medidas
Authors: Pluas-Santana Luis Fernando , Eras-Pogo Víctor Alfonso , López-Soria Yudith , García-Segarra Holger Geovannny
Published: May 2024

The general objective of this study is to critically review how the excessive demand, by the prosecutor's office as head of public criminal action, in Ecuador, with respect to the application of the precautionary measure of preventive detention, on the occasion of hearings for the formulation of charges and/or classification of flagrancy, ignores and violates the principle of objectivity, pointing out the excessive use of this measure as a research problem. For this purpose, a qualitative approach methodology is used, under exegetical, analytical and inductive methods, using as a data collection technique the interview with three Ecuadorian prosecutors. As a result, it was found that, in effect, the request for this precautionary measure ignores and violates the principle of objectivity, given that the prosecutors take into account elements such as the prevention of new crimes and the protection of victims to base it, moving away from the criteria stipulated by national regulations, which violates this and other procedural principles and, consequently, violates the accused's right to due process.

IMPACT OF COVID-19 ON MEDIA AND EDUCATION SYSTEM
Authors: Das Kundu Nivedita , Muratova Nozima
Published: May 2024

The COVID-19 pandemic, lockdown, and self-isolation have changed many things around the world and the same is found happening in Russia and Uzbekistan too. The article examines the impact of COVID-19 on society with an emphasis on the education sector and media of both countries. The study argues that COVID-19 disrupted the education system in schools, colleges, and universities, and the educational institutions were closed in an attempt to contain the spread of the virus. Schools were forced to replace the compulsory face-to-face in-class education with online learning and home schooling helped by both teachers and parents. The study reveals that students and teachers adapted to the online education system and were obliged to follow distance learning. However, there have been challenges adjusting to these changes for students, teachers, and parents. Also, the pressure on the medical infrastructure increased considerably. The health sector was finding it difficult to manage both professionals and the administrative aspects of handling the overall load on the medical system. Conceivably, the initial reluctance of the administration to recognize the possible enormity of the threat is probably responsible for their medical system’s failure in some parts of Russia and Uzbekistan during the pandemic. Owing to the massive influx of patients, and the inadequacies of social support, the situation deteriorated and healthcare sectors were found to be increasingly overwhelmed. The COVID-19 pandemic has taught both nations that access to healthcare and medication is of utmost importance for the survival of the state itself. The COVID-19 pandemic taught that there is a necessity to change the lifestyle and the overall teaching and learning process and upgrade the technology.

Psychosocial Correlates of Speech-Language Impairment in the Context of Bilingual Learning Environment in a Multi-Cultural Setting
Authors: Aman Ullah Khan
Published: May 2024

Language impairment is a major social and health problem. Most of the speech problems are the result of psychosocial correlates in cross-cultural / cross-linguistic perspectives. Hypotheses were formulated relevant to pro-active mother-child verbal transaction,bilingual families, medium of instruction, and religious institutions (madressahs). Research entailed a questionnaire administered on speech-language disorders at the educational institutions / and OPD referrals, diagnosed as speech- language disorders, non-organic in Karachi SouthWest District. The data so collected were subjected to chi-square testing. In terms of the stated objectives, overall results of the research study supported two of the hypotheses pertaining to proactive mother-child verbal transaction, and madressah education (religious institution / school), whereas the other hypotheses remained deficient of the required support for the hypothesized variables like mother-father tongue compatibility i.e. monolingual families and medium of instruction.

Strengthening Teacher Preparation Addressing Perceptions of Behavior Management and Bilingual Learners during Field Experiences
Authors: Seeger Victoria , Sherman Madeline
Published: May 2024

A large body of literature recognizes the many challenges teachers experience in the classroom. The research and subsequent article bring to light the concerns identified by undergraduate teacher candidates during a day-long field experience. The intention of the experience was to focus on literacy instruction; however, that was often overshadowed by classroom and behavior management concerns and questions. Reflections and discussions after the experience were dominated by the identified behavior and classroom management issues and concerns the teacher candidates noticed. Their post-experience reflections were so focused on them that the candidates were unable to process the literacy behaviors, instruction, and resources.

Evidence of Large Scale Tectonic Processes on the Tharsis Rise, Mars
Authors: Kidman Genevieve , MacLean John , Maxwell David
Published: May 2024

Past observations of Mars have led scientists to believe that tectonic kinematics stopped early in its planetary development. Recent exploration of Mars has led to new theories that support an active tectonic regime on the Tharsis rise. With the advancement of new satellite imagery and technologies such as Thermal Emission Imaging System, High Resolution Imaging Science Experiment satellite imagery, the Mars Orbital Laser Altimeter, and interactive software such as J-Mars and Esri GIS, we have identified additional large-scale surface features in the Tharsis Rise and surrounding areas. Large-scale Martian lineations, folds, and conjugate joints can be compared to similar structures on Earth to interpret potential plate boundaries. For example, a northeast-trending set of lineations with significant left-lateral strike-slip displacement and conjugate jointing located to the northeast of the Tharsis Rise could accommodate transform motion between two plates. Our observations allow the designation of multiple potential plate margins in the region. We propose a tectonic model showing relative motions along plate boundaries in a potentially active multiple-plate system on Mars.

ON THE INTERACTION OF H[AuCl2] WITH 2-ETHYLIMIDAZOLE INTERACTION OF [AuCl2]- WITH 2-ETHYLIMIDAZOLE AT 278-318K
Authors: Safarmamadzoda Safarmamad Muboraksho , Kurbonbekov Jamolidin Saradbekovich , Muborakkadamov Davron Akhmadzhonovich
Published: May 2024

Using the potentiometric titration method, the process of complexation of gold (I) with 2-ethylimidazole was studied. Adding an organic ligand solution to the [AuCl2]-/Au system leads to a smooth decrease in the electrode potential (without any jumps). The nonlinearity of the dependence of E on –log[2EI] indicates the stepwise nature of complex formation between [AuCl2]- and 2-ethylimidazole.

The general stability constants of successively formed complexes were determined in the temperature range 278-318K (at T=298K, logβ1=4.41±0.03; logβ2=10.81±0.02). An increase in temperature leads to the stability of the formed complexes. It has been shown that trivalent gold complexes are superior in stability to similar gold(I) complexes. The thermodynamic functions of the process of complex formation of gold (I) with 2-ethylimidazole were calculated using the temperature coefficient method. The value of enthalpy (∆Н0) was determined by the tangent of the slope of the direct dependence logβί0=f(1/T), the value of entropy (∆S0) by the segment cut off by this straight line on the ordinate axis, while the change in the isobaric-isothermal potential was calculated according to the equation ∆G0 =∆H0-T∆S0. It was revealed that the replacement of chloride ions with the ultraspherical molecule of 2-ethylimidazole is accompanied by a positive change in enthalpy. This experimental fact is associated with the difference in the binding energies of gold-chlorine (Au-Cl) and gold-2-ethylimidazole (Au-2-EI). A positive change in enthalpy makes a negative contribution to the spontaneous occurrence of complexation reactions. At the same time, the value of ∆S0 for the studied system has a positive value. In the [AuCl4]- –2-EI-H2O system, the number of particles participating in the complexation reaction remains unchanged. The positive change in entropy is most likely due to the release of the H2O molecule from the hydration shell of each of the reactants. A positive change in entropy promotes the spontaneous occurrence of complexation reactions in the studied system.
SOLVING A TRANSPORT PROBLEM WITH FUZZY TARIFFS ON THE EXAMPLE OF CARGO TRANSPORTATION AT THE ROGUN HPP
Authors: Odinaev Raim Nazarovich , Mavlonzoda Safarali Hikmatullo
Published: May 2024

This article discusses the solution of the transport problem using fuzzy tariffs on the example of cargo transportation of the Rogun HPP. The transport task is an important logistics task, where it is required to optimize the delivery of goods from source to destination with minimal costs.

The effectiveness of the proposed methods was evaluated on the practical example of cargo transportation of the Rogun HPP. The results showed that the use of fuzzy tariffs makes it possible to increase the efficiency of the cargo transportation process, especially in conditions of uncertainty or insufficient information.

The article proposes and implements methods for solving the transport problem with fuzzy tariffs. They are based on the principles of fuzzy logic, which allows us to take into account uncertainty and various factors affecting the process of cargo transportation. The methods include the formalization of fuzzy tariffs, the determination of weighting factors to assess the importance of each tariff, as well as optimization algorithms to find the best cargo transportation plan.

To test the effectiveness of the proposed methods, a specific example was given with cargo transportation data from the Management of the Rogun HPP. The use of fuzzy tariffs allows you to take into account various factors that can affect the process of cargo transportation, such as weather conditions, road conditions and others. This allows for more accurate and flexible planning and management of cargo transportation, as well as taking into account the interests of all parties – the customer, the carrier and the recipient.

Some problems and limitations related to the use of fuzzy tariffs in solving the transport problem were also identified. One of the main problems is the difficulty of defining and evaluating fuzzy tariffs. It is also necessary to take into account possible restrictions on the volume of transportation and the availability of vehicles.
THE CONTRIBUTION OF THE RELAXATION OF THE HEAT FLOW TO THE CHARACTERISTICS OF THE FUNDAMENTAL HARMONICS OF A NONLINEAR PHOTOACOUSTIC SIGNAL IN CONDENSED MEDIA
Authors: Salikhov Tagaymurod  Haitovich , Yunus Khodjaev  Pardalievich , Sulaimonov Aidar Eronshoevich , Makhmalatif Alisher
Published: May 2024

Based on the system of nonlinear heat conduction equations, which takes into account the relaxation of the heat flux for the gas layer, the sample, and the substrate, a system of equations is obtained for temperature fluctuations at the fundamental harmonic (FH) of a nonlinear photoacoustic (PA) signal.

It is believed that all three layers in the PA-chamber have their own relaxation times, and the irradiated photon flux is modulated according to the harmonic law. The temperature dependence of thermophysical and optical parameters is represented by thermal coefficients. By solving the boundary problem, general expressions were obtained for the oscillatory component of the temperature perturbation in the exhaust gas, and then, according to a well-known scheme, for pressure fluctuations in the gas layer. The obtained expressions are analyzed.

The frequency dependence of the amplitude and phase of this signal is numerically calculated for two possible substrates: the substrate is a thermal insulator and the substrate is an ideal conductor. It has been established that the frequency dependence of the PA-signal amplitude for these cases is antiphase. While, this dependence for the phase of the PA-signal is consistent in phases moreover, the values of the maximum and minimum coincide. The only significant difference is that in the region of zero modulation frequencies, the phase of the signal for a substrate made of a thermal insulator is positive, while for a substrate made of an ideal conductor is negative.
COLLISIONS OF COMET NUCLEI WITH METEOROID SWARIES AND THEIR CONSEQUENCES
Authors: Safarov Abduljalol Gafurovich
Published: May 2024

The article considers the collisions of nuclei of selected comets with known meteor showers. It was revealed that as a result of the collision, the nuclei of comets showed significant activity of the nucleus. For some comets, the sublimation velocity increased and as a result, dust jets were observed.

Some comets collided with one or two meteor showers, as a result of their collision with comets C/1743 X1, C/1796 P1, C/1823 Y1, C/1844 Y1, C/1858 L1, C/1877 G1, C/1995 O1 and 109P/1862 O1 formed synchron bands in the second and third types of cometary tail. As a result of the collision, some comets formed an anomalous tail, the successive bombardment of meteoroids led to a large destruction of the surface of the nucleus and fragmentation (C/1823 Y1, C/1888 R1, C/1892 E1, D/1894 F1, C/1932 M1, C/1954 O1, C/1969 T1, C/1995 O1, C/2004 Q2, 6P/1976, 7P/1869 G1, 10P/1930, 19P/1918, 26P/1927 F1, 96P/1986 J1, 109P/1862 O1 and 213P /2011). According to observational data, it has been established that each meteor shower contains large bodies that reach several meters in size. It was the collisions of large bodies from meteor showers that led to the destruction of some of the studied comets. After the formation of an anomalous tail and the destruction of the comet's nucleus, large dust particles and fragments of the rocky nucleus always remain along the orbit, which later form new meteoroid swarms.
MENTAL HEALTH COMORBIDITY IN A CANADIAN COURT
Authors: Leung Pauline , Khalifa Najat , Hassan Tariq
Published: May 2024

Objective
Over the past two decades, Canada has seen a rapid growth in problem-solving courts. Such courts are predicated on the rationale that certain populations of individuals who come into contact with the law do so not out of choice, but because of personal circumstance. One prominent example of a problem-solving court is the mental health court. the current investigation serves as a preliminary look into the needs of individuals in contact with the law in southeastern Ontario, Canada. At the time of the writing of this report, no mental health courts had yet been established in the region. We sought to assess the need for such a court by reviewing some key demographics in a sample of offenders in a ‘guilty plea’ court.
Design:
To this end, data from guilty plea court was collected over the course of several months. The data was publicly available and therefore university ethics though enquired was not required. At the completion of data collection, information from 79 court cases had been documented. These cases were coded for the presence or absence of identified mental health concerns, and subsequent analysis was conducted to discern whether mental health status could predict the type and severity of charges accrued. 
Results:
Of the 79 cases, 24 individuals attending guilty plea court were identified as presenting with mental illness
Conclusion:
Everything taken together, the current study highlights the need and utility for mental health courts. We offer empirical evidence of such a need, and add to the slowly growing—and altogether much-needed—body of literature surrounding mental health courts in Canada.
ADVANCES IN TREATMENT OF MOOD DISORDERS
Authors: Shah Asim A.
Published: May 2024

In the last many decades psychotropics have mostly focused on Serotonin, Norepinephrine, and Dopamine for depression, and dopamine blockers for psychosis. Researchers started working diligently and explored new targets like Glutamate in treating depressive disorder and schizophrenia. The antagonist effect of Ketamine on N-methyl-D-aspartate (NMDA) receptors was investigated, which can result in a faster antidepressant response as compared to conventional treatment . GABA receptors were also explored to develop novel compounds, which resulted in the discovery of brexanalone, a neuroactive steroid-positive allosteric modulator of GABAA   approved in March 2019 by the FDA for the treatment of postpartum depression. It is administered as an intravenous infusion over 60 hours and results in a rapid antidepressant response in` postpartum depression lasting for more than one week. Another neuroactive steroid Zuranolone effectively treats postpartum depression and major depressive disorder (MDD) . The antidepressant also modulates neuronal plasticity by enhancing the Brain-derived neurotropic factor BDNF levels.

Authors: Кәрімова Зульфиям
Published: May 2024

The article, based on information from the works of East Turkestan historians, examines the relationship of the Ottoman Empire with the state of Yakup Beg, which arose in Kashgaria in the second half of the 19th century. The purpose of the study is to conduct an in-depth study and conduct a source study, textual analysis of information from East Turkistan historians, which contain important and valuable information about the connections of the Ottoman Empire with Kashgaria and its neighbouring regions of Central Asia (Kazakhstan, Uzbekistan, Kyrgyzstan, etc.). The study is based on conclusions formed during a comparative analysis of information from Turkic written sources with archival materials and data from unique scientific literature. In the course of preparing the article, to determine the completeness and reliability of the information provided, comparative-contrastive, comparative-historical and problem-chronological methods, methods of analysis, collection, and synthesis of information were also used. This technique was used to compare essential documents on the records management of the Ottoman and Russian Empires of the period under study, stored in the archives and funds of various countries, with information from local East Turkestan historians. It should be noted that relations between the two states developed in the context of the “Great Game” policy of the great powers towards Central Asia.

The works of local East Turkestan historians provide extensive information on events related to the relationship between the Zhetyshar state (the state of Yakup-bek) and the Ottoman Sultanate. The authors describe these events with tremendous verve and enthusiasm. The unity of the Turkic-speaking peoples, who for centuries nourished each other with great faith and hope, is reflected in the works of historians.
BASIS OF ACTIVATING RELATIONS BETWEEN KAZAKHSTAN AND THE WORLD OF THE EAST
Authors: El Gendy Mohamed El Shahat
Published: May 2024

The article considers that Kazakhstan has a special relationship with other countries of Central Asia and the Arab and Islamic worlds. As for the eastern states, they are united by close ties of neighborhood, mutual benefit and common interests in their cultural, political, economic aspects. It also corresponds to the countries of the Arab and Islamic worlds in many elements of identity in its historical, cultural and religious aspects, as well as in other grounds of identity. The political leadership at the top of the ruling regime in Kazakhstan, represented by President Tokayev, is clearly aware of this fact, as they work to develop it and develop its mechanisms, focusing on common interests and restoring a constructive role at the regional and international levels. It should be met positively by the countries of the Eastern world, all of which belong to the same world and suffer from the accumulation of problems and difficulties that hinder their movement towards the realization of the aspirations of their peoples for a decent life by ensuring their vital needs and human rights in them through the prism of human dignity.

Social Entrepreneurship: What Everyone Needs to Know, by D. Bornstein and S. Davis
Authors: Simpson Ruby
Published: May 2024

My son’s school friend Jean-Pierre was asked by his eighth grade teacher, “What would you like to do when you grow up?” Jean-Pierre responded, “I want to help people.” “Great,” replied the teacher, “think of something people need and build a business to provide it. Then you can use your profits however you want, to build houses, provide medical care, or provide other fine things poor people can’t afford.” Alas, Jean-Pierre did not have the courage of his convictions to start something, run it and take full responsibility for the outcome like any good entrepreneur. He preferred to go to work for a big agency, draw a salary, and allocate money he had not earned by himself.

The Role of Brand in a Consumer Culture: Can Strong Brands Serve as a Substitute for a Relationship with God?
Authors: Burns David J. , Fawcett Jeffrey K.
Published: May 2024

Strong brands engender strong relationships with consumers and provide the platform for the development of relationships among the brand’s adherents. Could the brands associated with products take the place of a relationship with God? The literature seems to support an affirmative response. The evidence suggests that by belonging to brand communities, consumers may be able to fulfill several of their needs and desires, including the need for a unique identity, for community, and for being a part of something larger than themselves. This paper argues that the development of strong brands within a consumer culture has the potential to serve as a substitute for relationships, including as a substitute for a relationship with God. In response, several questions are raised for Christian marketing educators and researchers.
Confronting the Retirement Funding Calamity: A Christian Perspective
Authors: Porter Brian E. , Steen Todd P.
Published: May 2024

Funding for retirement in the United States is provided by a variety of sources, including businesses, governments and individuals. The current state of this funding is precarious, and the future looks even more uncertain. These issues are receiving considerable attention, however, there has been little if any significant response from the Christian community. This paper outlines the beginning of a Christian perspective on the issue of retirement funding. There are several Biblical principles that are relevant to the provision of funding for retirement. The paper explores the implications of these principlesand provides suggestions for governments, businesses, and individuals concerning the design of retirement funding in the United States.
Business as Mission in Light of Augustinian and Thomism Theology: Commendations and Critiques
Authors: Seibert Kent W.
Published: May 2024

In discussing business as mission, Richard Chewningconcludes that "The CBFA has for the first time come face to face with a theological issue, not merely an issue regarding integration.” His article, Augustine and Aquinas, raises several important issues for Christian business people and faculty engaged in the business as mission arena. His basic thesis is that, whether people are aware of it or not, their theological presuppositions color their view of BAM (business as mission). It is hard to argue with that thesis. There are additional aspects of his paper that I appreciate. But there are also ideas that I find problematic. I will cover each of these in turn.

Faithonomics by K. Brad Stamm
Authors: Simpson Ruby
Published: May 2024

K. Brad Stamm states in his introduction that this book’s purpose is to bring “an economist’s view of various Scripture passages.” I think he accomplishes his purpose, but I wish his approach had been more skeptical of prevailing political and governmental wisdom, rather than swallowing it whole.

Festers frygtforløsende funktion i jødisk religion
Authors: Schleicher Marianne
Published: May 2024

ENGLISH SUMMARY: To move beyond the finding that tightly regulated rituals and affective feasts seem to occur in pairs, this article asks why this is so. The article draws on Gilles Deleuze and Félix Guattari’s understanding of cultural phenomena, including religion, as a protection against chaos, and on Peter A. Levine’s understanding of adequate responses to potentially traumatising experiences to prevent emotional blockage. It analyses four calendar feasts in Jewish religion: the Feast of Weeks, the Feast of Tabernacles, Passover, and Purim, based on the thesis that calendar feasts have evolved to facilitate collective ‘shake-and-run’-reactions when people have had reason to ‘freeze’ in response to potentially chaotic and life-threatening situations during the year, albeit in changing contexts. Concretely, the article asks, what anxiety relief do these four calendar feasts offer in different phases of Israelite-Jewish history of religion?
DANSK RESUME: For at nå dybere end den erkendelse, at stramt regulerede ritualer og affektive fester synes at optræde i par, spørger denne artikel ind til, hvorfor det forholder sig således. Perspektiver til forklaring hentes fra Gilles Deleuze og Félix Guattaris forståelse af kulturelle fænomener, herunder religion, som et værn mod kaos og Peter A. Levines forståelse af ‘ryst-og-løb’-handlinger som nødvendige reaktioner på potentielt traumatiserende oplevelser, hvis blokeringer skal undgås. Artiklen undersøger fire kalenderritualer i jødisk religion: ugefesten, løvhyttefesten, påske og purim, ud fra den tese, at kalenderfester har udviklet sig til at facilitere kollektive ‘ryst-og-løb’-reaktioner, når mennesker har haft grund til at ‘fryse’ som reaktion på potentielt kaotiske og livstruende situationer i årets løb, om end i skiftende kontekster. Konkret spørges der til, hvilken frygtforløsning disse fire kalenderfester tilbyder i forskellige faser af israelitisk-jødisk religionshistorie?
Holī og Dīvalī – to hindufester
Authors: Fibiger Marianne Qvortrup
Published: May 2024

English abstract: In this article, I will demonstrate how feasts and festivals serve as effective analytical tools to comprehend the diversity within the Hindu tradition. I will use the two festivals: Holī and Dīvalī as examples. Additionally, I aim to explore whether the historical anchors of a festival, or multiple anchors, have significance for the interpretative potential associated with the festival today. I will particularly focus on whether the festival is strongly or weakly tied to one or more myths and whether it has a tribal/early archaic or archaic origin. I will also investigate if certain festivals within the Hindu tradition seem more adaptable to new contexts outside of India than other.
Dansk resume: I denne artikel vil jeg demonstrere, hvordan fester og festivaler er et godt analyseredskab til at forstå den hinduistiske tradition i sin mangfoldighed, men også til at undersøge, om festens historiske forankringspunkt eller forankringspunkter har betydning for det fortolkningspotentiale, man kan knytte til festen i dag. Her vil jeg særligt tage udgangspunkt i de to fester Holī og Dīvalī. Et analytisk  omdrejningspunkt er, om festen knytter sig stærkt eller svagt til en eller flere myter, og om den har et tribalt/tidlig arkaisk eller et arkaisk ophav. Jeg vil også undersøge om visse fester inden for den hinduistiske er mere adaptiv til nye sammenhænge uden for Indien end andre.
