Authors: Paronyan Shushanik
Published: June 2022

The topic of the present article concerns the ways of expressing the speaker's communicative intent and highlighting the perlocutionary effect of the discursive move in political discourse. The aim of the research is to study the ways of making an impact on the audience in the communicative context of mass media communication. For the purpose of analysis the transcript of a political interview published on the website of the news program Democracy Now is taken. The language material is analysed with the application of contextual-semantic and pragmatic methods of analysis. The study of the dialogic moves of the partners in the question-answer sequences provides ample grounds to suggest that the conversational unit under analysis can be interpreted as a case of macro-warning which creates the perlocutionary effect of alarming.

Published: June 2022

Son yıllarda sosyal medya yoğun bir şekilde kullanılmakta ve bu kullanıma bağlı olarak da insan hayatında bir takım psikolojik ve sosyolojik etkiler oluşturmaktadır. Yapılan araştırmalar sosyal medyanın yoğun kullanımına bağlı olarak kullanıcıları birçok yönden olduğu gibi dinî yönden de etkilendiklerini göstermektedir. Din eğitimcilerinin toplumdaki dinî inanç ve davranışları etkileyen faktörleri doğru şekilde anlaması, din eğitimi alanında daha etkili çalışmalar yapmaları konusunda destek sağlayabilir. Literatürde kullanıcıların dinî yönlerine etkileriyle ilgili dolaylı bazı çalışmalar olsa da doğrudan kullanıcıların sosyal medya kullanımıyla dinî inanç ve davranışları arasındaki ilişkiyi inceleyen oldukça sınırlı sayıda çalışma bulunmaktadır. Araştırmamızın temel amacı bu boşluğun giderilmesi konusunda literatüre katkı sağlamaktır. Araştırmamızın ilk bölümünde sosyal medyanın dinî hayata etkileri üç başlıkta irdelenmiştir. İlk bölümde öncelikle sosyal medyanın kullanıcıların materyalist algıları üzerindeki etkilerine değinilmiş daha sonra zaman içinde toplum ahlakında oluşturduğu etkiler ve suç istatistikleriyle ilişkisi bazı raporlarla ortaya koyulmuştur. Son olarak ise sosyal medya kullanıcılarının dinî hayatlarını sosyal medyaya taşımaları neticesinde ortaya çıkmış olan yeni bir dindarlık türü olarak “sosyal medya dindarlığı” kavramına yer verilmiştir. Araştırmanın ikinci bölümünde katılımcıların sosyal medya kullanım istatistikleri ile dinî inanç ve davranışları arasındaki ilişki incelenmiştir. Bu kapsamda nicel tarama ve ilişkisel tarama modeli esas alınarak farklı tür, akademik ve sınıf düzeyindeki on iki ortaöğretim kurumunda eğitim gören 760 öğrenciye ölçek uygulanmıştır. Elde edile veriler SPSS 17.0 programı ile analiz edilmiştir. Araştırma sonucunda sosyal medya kullanımının kullanıcıların dinî inanç ve davranışlarını etkilediği tespit edilerek sosyal medyanın çeşitli dinî inanç ve davranışlarla ilişkisine dair analiz sonuçları istatistiksel olarak ortaya koyulmuştur.

This essay simulates a Federal Rules of Civil Procedure Rule 12(b)(6) ruling by a federal court. The case that serves as the basis for this simulation is Atkinson v. Facebook et al. The simulated ruling is not the actual ruling, but a simulated ruling, demonstrating how the Willging criteria can be successfully employed when a federal court rules on a Rule 12(b)(6) motion. The methodology that is employed herein reviews the counts in Atkinson’s complaint, presuming that a Rule 12(b)(6) was filed for each count. Each ruling is divided into three parts. In the first part, a summary of the count is discussed. Second, the reasons why the count is not appropriate is described. Finally, the Willging criteria are employed, showing where the motion fits within the criteria. Finally, for each motion, the essay concludes whether the Rule 12(b)(6) motions should either be granted or rejected with or without prejudice.

Composição do cigarro de tabaco e Cannabis e suas possíveis ações na gênese do câncer de pulmão
Authors:   , Mateus Aurelio Campanharo
Published: June 2022

O câncer de pulmão é o tipo de câncer que mais mata em todo o mundo, acometendo anualmente milhões de pessoas. É classificado em câncer de pulmão de células não pequenas (NSCLC) e câncer de pulmão de células pequenas (SCLC), sendo o NSCLC o tipo mais comum, representando 85% dos casos. Seus sintomas são muito variados, visto que se dá devido aos efeitos locais do tumor e os tratamentos atuais ainda são pouco eficientes nos estágios mais avançados. Fatores genéticos e ambientais adversos podem favorecer a gênese do câncer de pulmão, ainda que o principal fator de risco continue sendo o tabagismo. Com o objetivo de discutir o potencial carcinogênico da fumaça da Cannabis (maconha) em comparação com a do tabaco, foi realizada uma revisão bibliográfica analisando os constituintes químicos da fumaça do cigarro de tabaco e de maconha buscando antever se a mesma apresenta risco semelhante ao da fumaça do tabaco na gênese desta patologia. No cigarro de tabaco são encontradas diversas substâncias que possuem potencial carcinogênico sendo a nitrosamina cetônica derivada da nicotina (NNK) e vários hidrocarbonetos policíclicos aromáticos (PAH) tidos como os principais. O cigarro de maconha é consumido de forma muito semelhante ao cigarro de tabaco, fazendo com que o usuário também seja exposto a substâncias tóxicas provenientes da queima da maconha. Na fumaça da maconha o NNK está ausente, porém contêm PAHs juntamente com outras substâncias com ações potencialmente carcinogênicas. Algumas pesquisas envolvendo estudos de casos conectam o uso da maconha com o câncer de pulmão. Contudo, estudos específicos relacionando diretamente os componentes da fumaça da maconha com o câncer de pulmão, sob nosso ponto de vista, são ainda insuficientes. Embora muitas substâncias tóxicas e/ou carcinogênicas estejam presentes na fumaça da maconha em concentrações semelhantes às do cigarro comum, não encontramos dados suficientes na literatura consultada que permitam concluir que o uso da maconha possua o mesmo potencial carcinogênico do cigarro do tabaco.

The design introduces an operation using computer vision for Hand gesture recognition. A camera records a live videotape sluice, from which a shot is taken with the help of interface. The system is trained for each type of count hand gestures (one, two, three, four, and five) at least formerly. After that a test gesture is given to it and the system tries to fete it. A exploration was carried out on a number of algorithms that could best separate a hand gesture. It was set up that the slant sum algorithm gave the loftiest delicacy rate. In the preprocessing phase, a tone- developed algorithm removes the background of each training gesture. After that the image is converted into a double image and the totalities of all slant rudiments of the picture are taken. This sum helps us in secerning and classifying different hand gestures. former systems have used data gloves or labels for input in the system. I've no similar constraints for using the system. The stoner can give hand gestures in view of the camera naturally. A fully robust hand gesture recognition system is still under heavy exploration and development; the enforced system serves as an extendible foundation for unborn work.

Membrane Structures are highly popular in architectural design now a days. There is trend of using membrane structures. It satisfies both attractive architect’s design as well as structural design. The preliminary type of structure most commonly used by man was Tents. As the name suggests, Tension fabric structures utilize fabric in complete tension, as a primary building material. Every part of structure is loaded only in tension with no requirement to resist bending or compression. Soap film model is the classic example of Tensile Structures. Assembly of tensile membrane structures creates a unique structural system, indeterminate in its behavior and nonlinear in its deflection patterns. Tensile structures are gaining popularity due to their light weight, structural efficiency, serviceability, aesthetic appearance, installation and dismantling feasibility, climate regulation effects and less maintenance expenditures. Due to its light weight and stretch property, they can be used on places such as stadiums, large parking etc. Computer aids like Form Finder, Dlubal RFEM and AutoCAD is used for modeling and analysis.

An Internet-Based Self-Management Intervention to Reduce Fatigue Among People With Traumatic Brain Injury: A Pilot Randomized Controlled Trial
Authors: Raina Ketki D. , Morse Jennifer Q. , Chisholm Denise , Whyte Ellen M. , Terhorst Lauren
Published: June 2022

Importance: Fatigue is a chronic and distressing sequela of traumatic brain injury (TBI). Little evidence exists for the efficacy of interventions that address post-TBI fatigue.

Objective: To evaluate the preliminary efficacy of a self-management intervention (Maximizing Energy; MAX) for reducing the impact (primary outcome) and severity of fatigue on daily life, improving fatigue experience, and increasing participation compared with a health education (HE) intervention.

Design: Pilot randomized controlled trial (RCT).

Setting: Community.

Participants: Forty-one participants randomly assigned to the MAX (n = 20) or HE (n = 21) intervention.

Interventions: The MAX intervention included problem-solving therapy with energy conservation education to teach participants fatigue management. The HE intervention included diet, exercise, and energy conservation education. Both interventions (30 min/day, 2 days/wk for 8 wk) were delivered online by occupational therapists.

Outcome and Measures: The primary outcome was the modified Fatigue Impact Scale (mFIS). Outcome measures were collected at baseline, postintervention, and 4- and 8-wk postintervention.

Results: At 8 wk postintervention, participants in the MAX group reported significantly lower levels of fatigue impact (mFIS) than those in the HE group, F(1, 107) = 29.54, p = .01; Cohen’s d = 0.87; 95% confidence interval [0.18, 1.55].

Conclusions and Relevance: These findings provide preliminary evidence that the MAX intervention may decrease the impact of fatigue on daily life among people with post-TBI fatigue.

What This Article Adds: An internet-based, self-management intervention combining occupational therapy– delivered energy conservation education with cognitive–behavioral therapy seems to reduce fatigue impact and severity among people with post-TBI fatigue. Future appropriately powered RCTs could positively contribute to the evidence available to occupational therapy practitioners for this chronic, debilitating, and often overlooked symptom.

“When things are equal all over the world the symbols can be the same”: Isotype in West Africa
Authors: Kindel Eric
Published: June 2022

This is a study of work undertaken by the Isotype Institute in British colonial West Africa in the 1950s. It begins by reviewing the idea of "international", as set out by Otto Neurath, the inventor of Isotype. The discussion extends to initiatives whose aims included bringing Isotype work into contact with Africa and Africans, a possibility that greatly interested Neurath, but which he never realised. Projects later completed in West Africa by the Isotype Institute under its director, Marie Neurath, illustrate how Isotype’s international method, approach, and symbols were adapted in response to local conditions. An addendum situates the work of the Isotype Institute within a broader context of development in Britain's West African colonies after the Second World War.

This paper approaches agency as the primary mode of involvement with information design. We are particularly interested in the design of information in a digital interface. We consider that agency as a mode of involvement can frame the dimension of information design in a digital interface. In order to do so, the close reading method was applied to investigate how the interface supports the agency on two websites. Personal interest, points of contact, and information processing performed as analytical lenses. The findings suggest that the agency involvement with the information design supports designing the information in its concrete aspect. Information design tends to facilitate the entire scope of the agency in receiving this interface. Mastering action is the most evident due to the haptic dimension of interactivity and its immediate effect on the interface. Thus, recognizing the importance of agency involvement can benefit both the analysis and production of information design.

O desenvolvimento de Representações Gráficas de Síntese (RGSs) em sala de aula é um sistema de ações e interações coletivas na síntese visual do conhecimento. Entretanto, sua dinâmica de construção em grupo é de registro dificultoso quando observada de forma externa pelas pesquisadoras. A fim de propiciar uma coleta de dados interna mediada por meio de um relator inserido no contexto das equipes e de obter uma visão expressiva e intimista dos principais momentos da construção da RGS, este trabalho propõe o desenvolvimento de uma ferramenta visual de relatoria. Para tal, foram realizadas duas experimentações com métodos de registro da literatura com alunos do terceiro ano da graduação em Design Gráfico da UFPR. Cada dinâmica propiciou a adaptação dos métodos e seu refinamento, o que norteou a criação de uma técnica de relatoria híbrida a ser validada futuramente junto a outras turmas.

The Sketch Music Course Institute has produced students with good musical abilities in playing the piano. This musical ability to play piano instruments is formed through learning that is started and applied early on to children aged 6-12 years using the learning and play method. The method used in this research is descriptive qualitative. Qualitative research methods are research that intends to understand the phenomena of what is experienced by research subjects such as behavior, perception, motivation, action, and others. According to Koentjaraningrat (in Nainggolan, 2013: 29) that descriptive research aims to accurately describe the characteristics of an individual, condition, symptom, or group to determine the frequency or spread of a symptom to another. Regarding the learning outcomes, students proved to be happy and able to play songs using a piano musical instrument. The application of this learning and play method has proven effective in the learning process to play the piano aimed at children aged 6-12 years or elementary school children, where these periods are a period of very physical/kinetic, intellectual, emotional, and behavioral development. good, so it is also very effective in shaping and growing the musical sensitivity and skills of students. Students are trained from the basics musically in order to be able to produce good quality music.
A RESPONSABILIDADE CIVIL DO PODER PÚBLICO À LUZ DA LEI GERAL DE PROTEÇÃO DE DADOS: UMA ANÁLISE ACERCA DA DIVULGAÇÃO DE DADOS PREVIDENCIÁRIOS
Authors: França Laís Assis , Coelho Leandro Alves
Published: June 2022

O presente artigo fundamenta-se na análise da divulgação de dados previdenciários pelo Instituto Nacional do Seguro Social, com o objetivo de verificar a responsabilização do Poder Público diante deste vazamento. Em virtude disso, primeiramente realizou-se uma abordagem geral da Lei Geral de Proteção de Dados (LGPD), contemplando as modificações do conceito de privacidade e as variadas normas que foram criadas até o advento da LGPD. Ademais, foi-se abordado como o vazamento dessas informações impactaram a sociedade e violaram princípios e direitos fundamentais dos indivíduos, buscando dessa forma identificar qual responsabilidade será aplicada ao Poder Público. Nestes termos, esta pesquisa mostra-se pertinente e cientificamente relevante, sobretudo, porque a instauração de um procedimento administrativo para apurar o caso continua inerte na Procuradoria Geral da República (PGR), estando as vítimas até o momento sem obter uma conclusão acerca desse vazamento.
Driving mechanisms for the ENSO impact on stratospheric ozone

Abstract. While the impact of El Niño-Southern Oscillation (ENSO) on the stratospheric circulation has been long recognized, its effects on stratospheric ozone have been less investigated. In particular, the impact on ozone of different ENSO flavors, Eastern Pacific (EP) El Niño and Central Pacific (CP) El Niño, as well as the driving mechanisms for the ozone variations have not been investigated to date. This study aims to explore these open questions by examining the anomalies in advective transport, mixing and chemistry associated with different El Niño flavors (EP and CP) and La Niña in the Northern Hemisphere in boreal winter. For this purpose, we use four 60-year ensemble members of the Whole Atmospheric Community Climate Model version 4. The results show a significant ENSO signal on total column ozone (TCO) during EP El Niño and La Niña events. During EP El Niño events, TCO is significantly reduced in the tropics and enhanced at middle and high latitudes in boreal winter. The opposite response has been found during La Niña. Interestingly, CP El Niño has no significant impact on extratropical TCO while its signal in the tropics is weaker than for EP El Niño events. The analysis of mechanisms reveals that advection through changes in tropical upwelling is the main driver for ozone variations in the lower tropical stratosphere, with a contribution of chemical processes above 30 hPa. At middle and high latitudes, stratospheric ozone variations related to ENSO result from combined changes in advection by residual circulation downwelling and changes in horizontal mixing linked to Rossby wave breaking and polar vortex anomalies. The impact of CP El Niño on the shallow branch of the residual circulation is small, and no significant impact is found on the deep branch.

Abstract. Bacterial pathogens in surface waters may threaten human
health, especially in developing countries, where untreated surface water is
often used for domestic needs. The objective of the long-term multiscale
monitoring of Escherichia coli ([E. coli]) concentration in stream water, and that of associated
variables (temperature (T), electrical conductance (EC), dissolved oxygen
concentration ([DO]) and saturation (DO%), pH (pH), oxidation-reduction potential (ORP), turbidity (Turb),
and total suspended sediment concentration ([TSS])), was to identify the drivers of
bacterial dissemination across tropical catchments. This data description
paper presents three datasets (see “Data availability” section) collected at
31 sampling stations located within the Mekong River and its tributaries in
Lao PDR (0.6–25 946 km2) from 2011 to 2021. The 1602
records have been used to describe the hydrological processes driving
in-stream E. coli concentration during flood events, to understand the land-use impact
on bacterial dissemination on small and large catchment scales, to relate
stream water quality and diarrhea outbreaks, and to build numerical models.
The database may be further used, e.g., to interpret new variables measured in
the monitored catchments, or to map the health risk posed by fecal
pathogens.

Any thorough analysis of solar energy applications in the country requires a solar resources map. Many maps have been developed, but they only show distributions presented in colour intensities. Solar irradiance can only be estimated from such maps. Using on the spot experimental data for solar map production does not provide accurate maps because various climatic and environmental conditions such as dust haze and cloud cover affect the amount of solar energy that reaches the ground in various locations in Nigeria. This is particularly true during the harmattan period. Therefore data generated from such methods cannot be used to develop accurate numerical solar maps. Data for such applications should be collected from outer space and over a long time for various locations. The National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) provides a resources base for such data. The data used in this study covered 25 years (1994-2018). The average daily global solar irradiance for various longitude-latitude nodes is calculated from such data. With these data available, it is possible to estimate the average daily global solar irradiance for any location provided the longitude and latitude is known. Irradiance values for 300 locations in the country are evaluated from details presented by the maps. To validate the map, experimental irradiance values for selected locations are compared with values extracted from the solar irradiance map. Calculated irradiance values are found to agree satisfactorily with experimental values. The maximum percentage difference between calculated and experimental values is 6.8%. This proved that the solar map developed is a satisfactory provides a satisfactory representation of solar data for the various locations and can be used for other locations where such data does not exist.
