Documenting London’s bass culture and blues dances: Reggae in the films of Horace Ové and Franco Rosso
Authors: Smith Kate Bolgar
Published: May 2018

This article provides an analysis of two black British feature films – Horace Ové’s 1975 film, Pressure and Franco Rosso’s 1980 film, Babylon – and integrates the films into a wider discussion of life in Britain during the 1970s–80s. Drawing on the musical and cultural theories of Paul Gilroy and on the poet Linton Kwesi Johnson’s concept of ‘bass culture’, the author argues that reggae creates what Clare Corbould calls an ‘aural community’ that is simultaneously local and transnational. The reggae soundtracks layer Britain’s black history into the built space of London, insisting that the films’ audiences hear the ongoing reverberations of the British histories of slavery and colonialism.
Sound system aesthetics in contemporary art
Authors: Møstad Vincent
Published: May 2018

The Jamaican sound system is an assemblage of practices and ideas that make things visible, audible and tactile, which would otherwise remain obscured, a machine for waging epistemological warfare and mobilizing creative capacities otherwise excluded. This article explores such practices in the work of Nadine Robinson and Tom Sachs, two artists who deploy sound system methods and materials in their work. In studying sound systems’ iterations in the world of contemporary art, this article proposes that Jamaican sonic practice is generative of distinctive aesthetic and critical strategies.
Fake news nas redes sociais online: propagação e reações à desinformação em busca de cliques
Authors: Delmazo Caroline , Valente Jonas C. L.
Published: May 2018

Notícias falsas, histórias fabricadas, boatos, manchetes que são isco de cliques (as chamadas clickbaits) não são novidade. A diferença do atual contexto é o potencial de circulação das chamadas fake news no ambiente online, sobretudo em virtude do uso das redes sociais digitais. O presente artigo tem o objetivo de destacar as características do mundo online que facilitam a disseminação das notícias falsas, elencar exemplos recentes de fake news que ganharam grandes proporções graças à propagação nas redes sociais, com destaque para o período pré-eleitoral nos Estados Unidos em 2016, e mapear algumas das principais reações ao que chamamos de “problema das notícias falsas”, divididas segundo a natureza institucional de seus autores em quatro grandes grupos: (1) Plataformas digitais; (2) Organizações de pesquisa e da sociedade civil e os media; (3) Governos e órgãos estatais; e (4) Organismos Internacionais.
O jornalismo no contexto da Web Semântica
Authors: Viana Bruno
Published: May 2018

A emergência da web, enquanto plataforma de criação de conteúdo, veio a alterar a forma de se produzir e consumir notícias. Atualmente, as novas práticas jornalísticas influem não só na forma e conteúdo, mas também na relação dos jornalistas com o público. Com o desenvolvimento de novas tecnologias, conceitos como algoritmos, aplicações, base de dados, bolhas e filtros passaram a fazer parte das reflexões sobre os caminhos do jornalismo. Por meio de uma revisão de literatura sobre o tema, a intenção deste artigo é de refletir sobre as mudanças observadas no jornalismo, especificamente no que concerne às práticas profissionais, a partir do uso e desenvolvimento das novas tecnologias no âmbito da Web 3.0, a Web Semântica. A metodologia utilizada é a da pesquisa bibliográfica.
O lucro social e financeiro do jornalismo de investigação
Authors: Coelho Pedro , Silva Marisa Torres da
Published: May 2018

Este artigo tem como objetivo discutir soluções para o jornalismo, colocando em particular relevo o lucro social e financeiro do seu género mais nobre, o jornalismo de investigação. Tomando como ponto de partida uma avaliação da dimensão da crise de sustentabilidade que o jornalismo atualmente enfrenta, abordamos a especificidade, os riscos, as exigências e os encargos do jornalismo de investigação. Esta forma superior de jornalismo comporta, porém, lucros sociais tangíveis, além da possibilidade de gerar receitas para os media, quando a qualidade se constitui como motor também para o sucesso comercial. Advogamos que o futuro do jornalismo passa necessariamente por aqui - e talvez, como propõe Julia Cagé, por um modelo de financiamento reconstruído, que consiga resgatar o jornalismo através do controlo do mercado.
Optimization of enzymatic synthesis of ethyl hexanoate in a solvent free system using response surface methodology (RSM)
Authors: Gawas Sarita D. , Lokanath Nidya , Rathod Virendra K.
Published: May 2018

The present paper demonstrates application of biocatalysis to the synthesis of ethyl hexanoate, i.e. pineapple flavour ester, in a solvent free system. In order to evaluate the effect of various process parameters on reaction conversion, response surface methodology (RSM) complemented by central composite design (CCD) was employed. A maximum conversion of 88.57% was obtained while changing one factor at a time, at optimum conditions of temperature (50 °C), enzyme dose (2%), molar ratio acid to alcohol (1:3), speed of agitation 250 rpm and reaction time of 120 min. Based on this RSM study, the optimum predicted conditions were: 1:3.39 alcohol to acid ratio, 2.35% enzyme loading and 48.83 oC, for a predicted conversion of 90.99%. The activation energy for the enzymatic esterification was determined and calculated to be 25.76 kJ/mol. The positive values of Gibbs-free energy (ΔG), enthalpy (ΔH) and negative value of entropy (ΔS) revealed that the esterification reaction was non-spontaneous and an endothermic reaction. The reaction seems to follow bi-substrate Ping Pong Bi Bi mechanism with inhibition by both substrates.

Authors: Ronchi Andrea , Ouellette Christopher P. , Mejías Asuncion , Salamon Douglas , Leber Amy , Pugni Lorenza , Mosca Fabio , Sánchez Pablo J.
Published: May 2018

Objective

To determine the frequency of detection of cytomegalovirus (CMV) among infants evaluated for late-onset sepsis in the neonatal intensive care unit (NICU).

Methods

This study was a prospective cohort study.

Results

During the 13-month study, 84 infants underwent 116 sepsis evaluations, and CMV DNA was detected in saliva in three (4%) infants (median: gestational age 28 weeks, birth weight 950 g), representing 5% (n=6) of all sepsis evaluations. One infant had CMV DNA detected in saliva in all four sepsis evaluations. Two infants had acquired CMV infection, while the timing of CMV acquisition could not be determined in one infant. Two of the three infants had concomitant Gram-negative bacteremia and urinary tract infections (UTIs), two developed severe bronchopulmonary dysplasia (BPD) and none died.

Conclusion

Detection of CMV DNA in saliva occurred in 4% of infants and 5% of sepsis evaluations. Persistence of CMV DNA shedding in saliva made attribution of clinical illness difficult to ascertain.

Authors: Li Shuiping , Wu Qisheng , Zhang Chun , Zhu Huajun , Zhang Changsen , Wang Xin , Kong Cancan
Published: May 2018

LiNiO2 was prepared through two-step solid-state reaction by mechanochemical method and heat treatment, using LiOH (Li2CO3) and Ni(OH)2 as starting materials. The influence of grinding speed and time, heat treatment time, and starting materials on the structure of LiNiO2 was studied. The as-milled samples and products were characterized by scanning electron microscope (SEM) and X-ray diffraction (XRD). The results show that uniform as-milled samples can be obtained at grinding speed of 580 rpm for 0.5 h, using LiOH and Ni(OH)2 as raw materials. Perfect crystal LiNiO2 has been prepared by calcining the as-milled samples at 700 °C for 15 h. Composite material powders consisting of Li2Ni8O10 and LiNiO2 have been obtained using Li2CO3 as lithium source.

Linguistic Paradox and Diglossia: the emergence of Sanskrit and Sanskritic language in Ancient India
Authors: Houben Jan E.M.
Published: May 2018

“We know that Middle Indian (Middle Indo-Aryan) makes its appearance in epigraphy prior to Sanskrit: this is the great linguistic paradox of India.” In these words Louis Renou (1956: 84) referred to a problem in Sanskrit studies for which so far no satisfactory solution had been found. I will here propose that the perceived “paradox” derives from the lack of acknowledgement of certain parameters in the linguistic situation of Ancient India which were insufficiently appreciated in Renou’s time, but which are at present open to systematic exploration with the help of by now well established sociolinguistic concepts, notably the concept of “diglossia”. Three issues will here be addressed in the light of references to ancient and classical Indian texts, Sanskrit and Sanskritic. A simple genetic model is indadequate, especially when the ‘linguistic area’ applies also to what can be reconstructed for earlier periods. The so-called Sanskrit “Hybrids” in the first millennium CE, including the Prakrits and Epics, are rather to be regarded as emerging “Ausbau” languages of Indo-Aryan with hardly any significant mutual “Abstand” before they will be succesfully “roofed,” in the second half of the first millennium CE, by “classical” Sanskrit.

Blu-Ray Media Stability and Suitability for Long-Term Storage
Authors: Iraci Joe
Published: May 2018

The most recent generation of optical disc media available is the Blu-ray format. Blu-rays offer significantly more storage capacity than compact discs (CDs) and digital versatile discs (DVDs) and thus are an attractive option for the storage of large image or audio and video files. However, uncertainty exists on the stability and longevity of Blu-ray discs and the literature does not contain much information on these topics. In this study, the stabilities of Blu-ray formats such as read-only movie discs as well as many different brands of recordable and erasable media were evaluated. Testing involved the exposure of samples to conditions of 80 °C and 85 % relative humidity for intervals up to 84 days. Overall, the stability of the Blu-ray formats was poor with many discs significantly degraded after only 21 days of accelerated ageing. In addition to large increases in error rates, many discs showed easily identifiable visible degradation in several different forms. In a comparison with other optical disc formats examined previously, Blu-ray stability ranked very low. Other data from the study indicated that recording Blu-ray media with low initial error rates is challenging for some brands at this time, which is a factor that ultimately affects longevity.
The role of pain in chronic pain patients’ perception of health-related quality of life: a cross-sectional SQRP study of 40,000 patients
Authors: Molander Peter , Dong Huan-Ji , Äng Björn , Enthoven Paul , Gerdle Björn
Published: May 2018

Background and aims

Health-related quality of life (Hr-QoL) reflects the burden of a condition on an overarching level. Pain intensity, disability and other factors influence how patients with chronic pain perceive their condition, e.g. Hr-QoL. However, the relative importance of these factors is unclear and there is an ongoing debate as to what importance pain measures have in this group. We investigated the importance of current pain level and mood on aspects of Hr-QoL in patients with chronic pain and investigated whether such relationships are influenced by demographics.

Methods

Data was obtained from the Swedish Quality Registry for Pain Rehabilitation (SQRP), between 2008 and 2016 on patients ≥18 years old who suffered from chronic pain and were referred to participating specialist clinics. Dependent variables were general Hr-QoL [using two scales from European Quality of Life instrument: EQ5D Index and the European Quality of Life instrument health scale (EQ thermometer)] and specific Hr-QoL [from the Short Form Health Survey (SF36) the physical component summary (SF36-PCS) and the mental (psychological) component summary (SF36-MCS)]. Independent variables were sociodemographic variables, pain variables, psychological distress and pain attitudes. Principal component analysis (PCA) was used for multivariate correlation analyses of all investigated variables and Orthogonal Partial Least Square Regression (OPLS) for multivariate regressions on health aspects.

Results

There was 40,518 patients (72% women). Pain intensity and interference showed the strongest multivariate correlations with EQ5D Index, EQ thermometer and SF36-PCS. Psychological distress variables displayed the strongest multivariate correlations with SF36-MCS. Demographic properties did not significantly influence variations in the investigated Hr-QoL variables.

Conclusions

Pain, mood and pain attitudes were significantly correlated with Hr-QoL variables, but these variables cannot explain most of variations in Hr-QoL variables. The results pinpoint that broad assessments (including pain intensity aspects) are needed to capture the clinical presentation of patients with complex chronic pain conditions.
Simple Electroless Synthesis of Cobalt Nanoparticle Chains, Oriented by Externally Applied Magnetic Fields
Authors: Wen Xiaogang , Gu Lin , Bittner Alexander M.
Published: May 2018

The electroless (chemical) deposition of cobalt on palladium-sensitized oxidized silicon wafers produces nanowires and chains made up by nanoparticles. We demonstrate that the application of moderate magnetic fields, provided by permanent magnets, during the growth produces highly oriented cobalt nanowires and nanoparticle chains. By adjusting the magnetic field direction in plane, parallel and crossed cobalt chain patterns are readily accessible. Perpendicular orientation of the field results in rod-like, standing-up chains of nanoparticles. We explain the observed structures with magnetostatic arguments.

God, Country, and Anita Bryant: Women’s Leadership and the Politics of the New Christian Right
Authors: Johnson Emily Suzanne
Published: May 2018

As a new cohort of religious conservatives became major players in U.S. political discourse during the 1970s and 1980s, they expressed ambivalence about the political realm and often represented their religious motivations as simultaneously separate from politics and as justification for their political activism. Prominent conservative evangelical women drew on this ambivalence in specifically gendered ways, referencing their religious commitments as well as their roles as mothers, which they asserted both compelled them to speak out on political issues, and proved that these issues were not fundamentally political. Building on scholarship about women’s grassroots support in conservative movements, this article underscores the importance of women’s national leadership in the New Christian Right. It focuses on the career of singerturned- activist Anita Bryant, who offers a particularly instructive example due to her public and explicit transformation from representative symbol of American motherhood to outspoken political activist in the late 1970s. Within the context of a flourishing evangelical subculture and shifting political landscape, Bryant’s negotiations of her political authority exemplify conservative evangelical women’s ways of understanding their leadership in support of a platform that emphasized women’s domestic roles. It demonstrates how they invoked an existing tension between religious and political identification to expand the ideology of “traditional gender roles” without overstepping its bounds. More broadly, Bryant’s career offers insight into the importance of women’s national leadership in framing the rhetoric and priorities of the New Christian Right, including its central emphases on gender and its relationship with contemporary feminist movements.
Examining the Simplified Novels (SNs) as Supplementary Materials in Light of the Teachers’ Objectives and Teaching Techniques
Authors: Barakat Mahmoud Abdelrazig Mahmoud , Bedri Amna Mohammed
Published: May 2018

Simplified novels are believed to assist in the achievement of a number of language and non-language objectives. This paper will examine the possibility of using the simplified novels as supplementary materials with secondary school students from the teachers‘ perspectives. The study uses the interview as a tool to elicit data about the teachers‘ objectives and the techniques employed in teaching the simplified novels. Ten teachers are included in the sample: 4 females and 6 males. They all work in model secondary schools and teach the simplified novels to their students. It has been found that the main objective is to improve the students‘ reading skills with a moderate potential for supporting their oral/aural skills. Increasing students‘ motivation is viewed as an important objective, while non-language objectives have received no attention. As for the teaching techniques, loud reading is found to be dominant, with almost complete absence of silent and home reading. Discussion comes in the second place (5 teachers), while role play is used by only 3 teachers. The study recommends the use of more challenging materials as the teachers believe the simplified novels being used do not help increase their students‘ vocabulary. Moreover, the teachers‘ beliefs about loud reading and non-language objectives need reexamination.

A Magyar nyelvű sportmotivációs skála (H-SMS) validációja és eredményei
Authors: Paic Róbert , Kajos Attila , Meszler Balázs , Prisztóka Gyöngyvér
Published: May 2018

Háttér és célok: 2016-ban a Sportmotivációs Skála javított verziója (SMS2) kapcsán végzett fordítási és validációs próbálkozásaink során megállapítottuk, hogy a magyar nyelv sajátosságai, valamint a magyar sportolók gondolkodásának eltérő vonásai nem feltétlenül teszik lehetővé a sportmotivációs skálák egy az egyben történő fordítását. Ezért az eredeti irányvonalat és az eredeti elméleti keretrendszert, vagyis az önmeghatározás- elméletet (SDT – Self-determination theory) és annak faktorait (belső motiváció, integrált, identifikált, introjektált, külső szabályozás, amotiváció) megtartva, a magyar viszonyokhoz igazított, a nemzetközi eredményekkel mégis alapvetően összevethető instrumentum megalkotását tűztük ki célul.

Módszer: Az eredeti, angol nyelvű SMS2 skála kialakításához használt 61 item fordítását követően annak 500 fős sportolói mintán történő validálására került sor feltáró és magyarázó faktoranalízis révén. A mintát 319 férfiés 181 nő alkotta, átlagos életkoruk 21,16 év (szórás 6,45) volt.

Eredmények: A feltáró faktorelemzéssel kapott magyar nyelvű Sportmotivációs Skála (H-SMS) 22 tételének faktorstruktúrája az eredeti (SMS2) mérőeszköz faktorszerkezetéhez nagyon hasonló maradt. A H-SMS végső, megerősítő faktorelemzéssel kialakított verziója 6 faktort és 19 tételt foglal magába, melyeket egy 7 fokú skálán válaszol meg a kitöltő. A végleges változat két különböző modell közül került kiválasztásra, és maximálisan megfelel a pszichometriai instrumentumokkal szemben támasztott érvényességi (CMIN/df = 1,77; SRMSR = 0,042; RMSEA = 0,040; PCLOSE = 0,983; NFI = 0,953; TLI = 0,973; CFI = 0,979), valamint megbízhatósági (Cronbach alfa = 0,79–0,89; CR = 0,80–0,94; AVE = 0,65–0,89; AVE > MSV) kritériumoknak. Az eredetitől eltérően a végső struktúrában az intrinzik motivációt mérő faktort két alfaktorra osztottuk: az észlelt kompetenciára (kognitív) és az önhatékonyság növelésére (effektív) irányuló intrinzik motivációra.

Konklúzió: Az eredmények alapján biztonsággal kijelenthető, hogy a skála messzemenőkig alkalmas a sporthoz köthető motivációk mérésére, valamint a nemzetközi eredményekkel való összehasonlításra is.

Published: May 2018

RESUMO O presente estudo tem por objetivo contribuir para o estudo de caracteres sub-celulares que poderão ser utilizados na taxonomia das Phaeophyceae filamentosas, fornecendo dados sobre a estrutura e ultra-estrutura das células vegetativas e do estágio reprodutivo plurilocular de H. mitchelliae. Para tanto, estudos de microscopia de luz e eletrônica de transmissão foram realizados. As células vegetativas e reprodutivas de H. mitchelliae são uninucleadas, revestidas por uma parede celulósica, outros polissacarídeos e proteínas. A presença de um núcleo por célula, a organização dos tilacóides nos cloroplastos, formando bandas com três tilacóides, dispostos longitudinalmente ao eixo maior da organela e ausência de tilacóide no pirenóide foram similares a outras Phaeophyceae. H. mitchelliae também exibiu características ultra-estruturais que estão geralmente associadas a outras espécies, de ordens menos avançadas de Phaeophyceae como a presença de um proeminente pirenóide, dictiossomos perinucleares e plasmodesmos. A morfologia e a organização dos cloroplastos, bem como a presença ou ausência de pirenóide são características importantes dentro das Phaeophyceae. A formação de um novo pirenóide, em estágio de diferenciação, foi observada nos cloroplastos das células vegetativas. Ambas as células apresentaram núcleo com um grande nucléolo, sugerindo uma alta atividade metabólica. Muitos corpos osmiofílicos, os fisóides, foram vistos no citoplasma das células vegetativas e reprodutivas. As células da estrutura plurilocular madura de H. mitchelliae diferiram das células vegetativas por apresentar tamanho reduzido, citoplasma denso e desprovidas de vacúolos.

Collaboration and discord in international debates about coca chewing, 1949–1950
Authors: Warren Adam
Published: May 2018

This essay complicates our thinking about unequal North-South ‘collaborations’ by considering how distinct scientific traditions, national politics, forms of racial thinking, and conditions of internal colonialism in the global South shape relations with individuals and entities based in the global North. It does this by examining conflicts between Peruvian scientists and the United Nations’ Commission for the Study of the Coca Leaf, which visited Peru and Bolivia in 1949 to investigate the health effects of coca consumption on highland Indigenous populations. Sent at the Peruvian government’s invitation, commission members saw themselves as conducting a field survey. However, they quickly found themselves embroiled in conflict with a Peruvian high-altitude physiologist, Carlos Monge, who sought long-term, laboratory-based collaboration. Monge’s scholarship and experiments proved controversial for UN authorities because they emphasized the racial alterity of highland Indigenous peoples even as he and his peers disagreed about the health effects of coca chewing.

In this essay, we seek to understand how the stunning rise of data vacuuming, necessitated by the pretense of ‘partnership’ within global health, has fundamentally altered how routine health data in poor countries is collected, analyzed, prioritized, and used to inform management and policy. Writing as a team of authors with experiences on multiple sides of global health partnerships in the United States, Mozambique, Nepal, Lesotho, Kenya, and Cote d’Ivoire, we argue that solidarity-based partnership between donor and recipient countries is impossible when evidence production and management is effectively outsourced to external organizations to meet the criteria of donor partners. Specifically, to meet the 2030 Sustainable Development Goals, equity-oriented strategies are critically needed to create data collection, analysis, and use activities that are mutually beneficial and sustainable.

Published: May 2018

The readiness of the teaching staff of higher educational institutions for teaching and psychological and pedagogical support of students with disabilities is being considered. We emphasize that the personnel of the educational organization need special competence to work with persons with disabilities of various nosological groups. The issues of creating an accessible environment in the university were studied, the readiness of teachers to apply special educational technologies in the training of students with disabilities, to develop teaching and methodological materials; the ability to establish pedagogically appropriate relationships with students, and provide psychological and pedagogical support in matters of personal and professional self-determination. The results show a high degree of importance of special professional competencies for inclusive education. But, at the same time, teachers assess their own level of preparedness with students with disabilities as insufficient, which allowed to determine the main areas of work.

Clinical and electrophysiological correlation of peripheral neuropathy in newly diagnosed type 2 diabetes mellitus
Authors: Bhuyan Ashok K. , Appaiah Sonali
Published: May 2018

Background: The study was undertaken to evaluate the prevalence of peripheral neuropathy in newly diagnosed type2 Diabetes mellitus (DM) by clinical examination and nerve conduction study (NCS), and to correlate them with risk factors.Methods: Eighty newly detected cases of type2DM of age ≥18 years attending Endocrinology Department of Gauhati Medical College and Hospital, Assam, India were evaluated. Grading of symptoms and signs was done using the Neuropathy Symptoms Score (NSS) and Neuropathy Disability Score (NDS) respectively followed by NCS.  Neuropathy was diagnosed based on abnormal NSS, NDS or NCS.Results: Prevalence of peripheral neuropathy was 68.75 % based on abnormal NCS/NDS/NCS. The most common symptom was presence of paraesthesia in 70.9%, followed by weakness in lower limbs in 16.36%.  The most common sign was impairment of vibration perception in 76.3%, followed by absent ankle reflex in 56.36%. Abnormal NCS finding was seen in 55% of patients with neuropathy. Of all the patients with neuropathy, only 2.5% had subclinical neuropathy that is abnormal NCS finding in absence of sign and symptoms. Peripheral neuropathy had significant association with age at diagnosis, presence of hypertension, fasting plasma glucose(FPG), HbA1c, serum creatinine and estimated glomerular filtration rate(eGFR) (p<0.05). On multiple linear regression analysis, only age at diagnosis and FPG were independently associated with neuropathy (p<0.05).Conclusions: Patients with type 2DM have a high prevalence of peripheral neuropathy at diagnosis and very few of them harbour subclinical neuropathy. This study has shown that clinical examination still remains the main tool for detection of neuropathy.

Objectives: Breast-feeding with high sodium content milk may cause hypernatremic
dehydration in neonates (NHD). The number of cases with NHD tends to increase
particularly in the higher temperature seasons. In this prospective
case-control study, the relationship between NHD and breast milk sodium (Na)
levels and demographic features of NHD were investigated during the summer
season. Methods: The study
included term newborns admitted to the neonatal intensive care unit of our
hospital with the diagnosis of hypernatremic dehydration between June 2009 and
October 2009. Serum sodium level ≥ 150mEq/L was accepted as hypernatremia.
Among 109 NHD patients, breast milk sodium level was evaluated in 50 cases.
Term infants without hypernatremic dehydration were taken as the control group
(50 cases). Results: Postnatal
age at admission ranged between 2 and 12 days and mean serum Na concentration
was 152 mEq/L (150-173 mEq/L). A significant weight loss of >10% was
determined in 85% of cases. Breast milk Na was significantly higher in the
hypernatremic group (24.3 ± 20.3 mEq/L) compared to the control group (12.6 ± 6.79
mEq/L) (p < 0.001). In primiparous mothers, the mean breast milk Na
level was statistically higher than that of multipara mothers (21.16 ± 19.9 mEq/L
vs 15.48 ± 9.96 mEq/L, p < 0.016). Conclusions: In this
study, we demonstrated that high breast milk sodium level was closely related
with NHD and being a primiparous mother appeared as a significant factor for
high breast milk sodium content. In this respect, all pregnant women especially
primiparous should be educated about infant nutrition and neonatal dehydration.
Health care providers should emphasize importance of frequent milking and more
fluid intake, especially in summer.

Authors: Isroqunnajah Isroqunnajah
Published: May 2018

The allegations against the practice of institutionalized dorsumsisi in some parts of the world and teragenda as the material discourse fiqh, interesting to be responded and dismantled aspects of normatifitas and historicity. This paper discusses dorsumsisi, medical term to mention the practice of circumcision for women. Medically it is reported that dorsumsisi as a harmless operative procedure and in accordance with the biomedical theory of Victoria's biological determinism. This practice resulted in differences in legal status, Imam Syafii and some followers of Imam Hambali responded as obligatory. While some followers of Imam Hanafi, Imam Malik and some followers of Imam Syafii proclaim sunnah and followers of Imam Hanafi, some followers of Imam Malik and Hambali argue mustahab. Each with its own argument. Whatever the legal status that the ulama have produced, if this practice is carried out with an obsession with the medical benefits to be gained, then this practice is not a form of violence as expected.

 

Tuduhan terhadap praktik dorsumsisi yang telah melembaga di beberapa belahan dunia ini dan teragenda sebagai materi wacana fiqh, menarik untuk direspon dan dibongkar aspek normatifitas dan historisitasnya. Tulisan ini membahas dorsumsisi, terma medis untuk menyebut praktik khitan bagi perempuan. Secara medis dilaporkan bahwa dorsumsisi sebagai prosedur operatif yang tidak berbahaya dan sesuai dengan teori biomedis dari determinisme-biologis Victoria. Praktek ini nembuahkan perbedaan status hukumnya, Imam Syafii dan sebagian pengikut Imam Hambali meresponnya sebagai sesuatu yang wajib. Sementara sebagian pengikut Imam Hanafi, Imam Malik dan beberapa pengikut Imam Syafii menyatakan sunnah dan para pengikut Imam Hanafi, sebagian pengikut Imam Malik dan Hambali berpendapat mustahab. Masing-masing dengan argumentasinya sendiri-sendiri. Apapun status hukum yang telah dihasilkan oleh para ulama, jika praktik ini dilangsungkan dengan obsesi manfaat medis yang akan didapat, maka praktek ini tidaklah merupakan bentuk kekerasan sebagaimana yang diduga.

Oil palm smallholders require knowledge of fertilization because the fertilization is an influential factor in the productivity of fresh fruit bunches. On the other hand, the oil palm smallholders generally don’t have fertilizer expertise and they face a difficulty in determining good fertilization (good in type, dosage, time and manner) based on various literatures. Therefore, a simple application that can provide recommendations for palm oil fertilization is developed. The recommendations are based on expert knowledge that have been written in various literatures. Like an expert system, the application is designed by compiling knowledge base, constructing an inference engine and creating a prototype. The knowledge bases, that are facts and rules, are prepared using rule-based reasoning approach, the inference engine is compiled using forward chaining methods and the prototype is made using a visual basic application in a spreadsheet application. The application design uses facts of plant varieties, phases or age of plants, soil types, nutrient deficiency in soil and plants, rainfall, fertilizer content, and nutrient properties (synergies or antagonist) on fertilizers. The Applications made capable of providing fertilization recommendations by conducting forward chaining based on data-given facts and rules that have been made on the knowledge base.
