Published: March 2021

Recent investigations suggest that human capital investment influences and largely impacted the organization’s performance and success. Other human resource practices such as training and development may also improve the level of human capital in the firm. In this study, the human resource investment that aims to improve the level of knowledge and skills of mid-level managers, as well other features such as their managerial and leadership skills, employee engagement, and empowerment, that was practiced by The Datai Langkawi, will be the main focus. The program initiated by The Datai Resort in Langkawi called the ‘Datai Investing People’ or ‘DIP’ program, is a certification for an executive program for their mid-level managers and supervisors. A qualitative interview was conducted with nine of the DIP program participants, in investigating the impact and challenges of the DIP program. The data from the interview were recorded, transcribed verbatim, and analysed using thematic analysis. It was found that overall, participants of the DIP program were satisfied and mentioned improved managerial and leadership skills, personal development, and improvement, and improved interdepartmental communication and engagement as the impact of the DIP program. Meanwhile, among the challenges found are the approaches and method and unfamiliar classroom setting and environment of the DIP program. Furthermore, the program has successfully conducted and achieved its intended outcome for The Datai. As a pioneer of such a program, this could be a catalyst to promote human resource practices among hotels, in ensuring an improved organization’s performance and human capital’s knowledge and skills development.

Authors: Nguyen Thanh Giao
Published: March 2021

This study aimed to assess the use of pesticides and their impact on the triple-rice crops in Phu Can commune, Tieu Can district, Tra Vinh province by directly interviewed 60 farmers in the study area. The results showed that during cultivation, the farmers used pesticides with a very high dose and spray frequency. The farmers often applied various types of pesticides belonging to toxicity categories II, III, and IV according to the World Health Organization (WHO) classification. The treatments of bottles and packages of the pesticides after use by burying, disposing of in the rice field, selling to the vendors, and burning were improper practices. Consequently, these practices could pollute the environment with pesticides. The findings of the present study revealed that rice farming in the study area potentially poses a high risk to the surrounding environments and human health. Local authorities and environmental managers should pay more attention to solving this problem.
THE PROBLEM OF RELATIONS BETWEEN BIG BUSINESS AND NAZISM IN THE HISTORIOGRAPHY OF THE UNITED STATES AND GREAT BRITAIN
Authors: Sergeenkova I.F.
Published: March 2021

The article presents an analysis of the works of American and English historians devoted to one of the key problems in the history of Nazism - the problem of relations between the NSDAP and big business during the Weimar Republic. The collapse of the first democratic republic and the rise of the Nazis to power were a great tragedy for world history. What forces destroyed the Weimar Republic, and who is responsible for it, this question has always aroused the interest of historians. The literature on this topic is very large, so the main attention is paid to the works of the most famous American and English specialists. The article traces the evolution of historians' assessments of the role of the monopolistic bourgeoisie for the rise of the Nazis to power from the 1930s to the present day, highlights the stages in the development of American and English historiography, due to the change of research paradigms and generations of historians. Most American and British historians reject the definition of fascism given at the XIII Plenum of the ECCI on fascism as an open terrorist dictatorship of the most reactionary, most chauvinistic and most imperialist elements of financial capital. However, in most of the works, the responsibility of the business elite for the collapse of the Weimar Republic is more or less recognized. The article draws conclusions about the prospects and directions of further study of this problem.
READERS' INTERESTS AND VALUE ORIENTATIONS OF TEENAGERS
Authors: Polishchuk M.A.
Published: March 2021

This article attempts to identify the interests and values of modern teenagers who live in a large peripheral city and attend events that are regularly held in municipal libraries. The main possible types of work of a modern library and secondary school are not only the recommendation of educational and extracurricular literature, events, Olympiads and competitions, but also the education of library culture among schoolchildren. The library is forced to infiltrate the school to keep up with school education. To do this, it is necessary to organize joint work with representatives of specific schools (their principals, head teachers, interested teachers and parents), as well as with higher-level organizations of municipal and regional levels. It was supposed to find out what is the basis of the attitude of adolescent schoolchildren to reading as a process and as a value. The article is based on the eponymous research conducted by the Izhevsk city libraries in 2019. The study showed a fairly high degree of interest of modern schoolchildren in the services that can be provided in municipal libraries. The main topics of information needed by respondents were identified. We also managed to determine the preferred genres of books. Respondents named their favorite authors and expressed their attitude to reading and reading people. Thanks to the results obtained, librarians are able to improve the culture of library services for library visitors of different socio-demographic groups and plan their professional activities more carefully.
TYPOLOGICAL CHARACTERISTICS OF ONLINE COMMUNITIES IN THE STUDY OF THE INTEGRATIVE DYNAMICS OF DEVELOPMENT OF GROUPS OF SOCIAL NETWORKS "VKONTAKTE" AND FACEBOOK
Authors: Estrina Yu.Yu.
Published: March 2021

The attention of researchers is increasingly turning to the factors and mechanisms of human integration in the global Internet space. In order to increase the relevance of research methods for integrative processes in networked online communities, an important principle is the rejection of the classical conceptual framework and paradigms. The main research task at this stage is the collection and structuring of empirical material with the subsequent development of a theoretical model of the investigated object and the formation of a complex system of indicators for assessing integrative dynamics based on the typology of the selected key features. The article proposes criteria for a typological description of networked Internet communities, obtained as a result of a sociological study of the factors of online group dynamics. The applicability of the described criteria for creating a typology of online communities is substantiated. The theoretical substantiation of the phenomenon of hybrid forms of development of online communities as a specific type of social community is given. Conclusions are made about the influence of the described typological features of networked online communities on the processes of group integrative dynamics in the global Internet.
ABKHAZ-GEORGIAN ETHNOPOLITICAL CONFLICT AS A COMPLEX CONFLICT AND PROSPECTS FOR ITS SETTLEMENT
Authors: Nokhrin I.M.
Published: March 2021

The paper addresses the issue of Abkhaz-Georgian ethnopolitical conflict treating it as not a single process but as the complex case that consists of several consecutive self-sufficient conflicts or sub-conflicts during which different parties had various goals and escalated the situation trying to achieve miscellaneous aims. Although each of these sub-conflicts are looking like historical phases of one conflict, each of them has its own logic and, therefore, requires to be analyzed separately. The first sub-conflict of 1991-1994 can be quite accurately explained from the structuralist perspective as an attempt of the Abkhaz to reconsider their status and break the discriminative social structures developed during imperial and Soviet rule. The second phase 1994-2008 was the period of nationalist mobilization and the new clashes and atrocities were the result of the Georgian and Abkhaz elites’ intention to strengthen their legitimacy and power. Russia's role in this case fits well with the concept of "humanitarian intervention" and does not correspond to the Roger Brubaker’s famous “triadic nexus” (1996). Finally, the last phase of conflict since 2008 can be hardly called an ethnopolitical conflict itself since peace and the military status quo were established after the war of 2008 which neither side can challenge. Therefore, after 2008, it is more appropriate to speak about the need of post-conflict reconciliation instead of Abkhaz-Georgian ethnopolitical conflict. However, none of the parties has taken steps towards this reconciliation yet because the settlement of the conflict is impossible while it continues to be used for nationalist mobilization.

Published: March 2021

Background: Hypoxic-ischemic encephalopathy (HIE) is one of the main causes of neurodevelopmental disorders. We developed a model that has diagnostic and prognostic value in predicting the neurodevelopmental outcomes in newborns with HIE. HIE staging allows us to start therapeutic interventions early in newborns with suspected encephalopathy.

Methods: This was a retrospective study in a cohort of 58 full-term neonates with clinical suspicion of HIE. We assessed electroclinical variables at birth [etiology of hypoxia, neonatal seizures, HIE stages based on Sarnat criteria, use of therapeutic hypothermia, neuroimaging tests and electroencephalography (EEG) findings] and two years of follow up (EEG findings, development of epilepsy, the presence of cognitive deficits, behavioral issues, language problems, visual or hearing disturbances, and cerebral palsy).

Results: There was a high electro-clinical correlation to severe HIE (88.8%) and moderate HIE (50%). There was a considerable proportion of patients affected by mild HIE, based on clinical examination, who presented with an abnormal EEG (32.3%). There is a relationship between the onset of neonatal seizures, epilepsy, and severe HIE diagnosed with EEG (88.9%). A higher percentage of patients with moderate and severe HIE, based on EEG findings, present abnormal results in cranial ultrasound and cerebral magnetic resonance imaging (62.5%). At two years of age, functional neurodevelopment disturbances were observed most frequently in patients affected with severe and moderate HIE based on EEG.

Conclusions: This study shows a model with diagnostic and prognostic value in predicting newborns' neurodevelopmental outcomes with suspected HIE. This knowledge allows us to assess the role of performing serial EEG in patients with suspected HIE and the relevance of EEG findings in the prognosis of neurodevelopmental disorders.

ДОСЛІДЖЕННЯ ВПЛИВУ ВОДНОСТІ РОКУ НА ЗОВНІШНІЙ ВОДООБМІН В РОБОЧОМУ ОБ’ЄМІ КАХОВСЬКОГО ВОДОСХОВИЩА
Authors: Обухов Є.В.
Published: March 2021

Однією із сучасних проблем функціонування водосховищ є зміна їх параметрів у процесі тривалої експлуатації та мінливість клімату. Оцінка стану водних об’єктів і процесів, які відбуваються в них, вимагають постійного моніторингу та аналізу. Мета роботи автора – дослідження інтенсивності зовнішнього водообміну на Каховському водосховищі, його горизонтальної та вертикальної складових, а також господарського використання об'єкта. На основі воднобалансових складових досліджено інтенсивність зовнішнього водообміну в корисному об'ємі водосховища в проєктних його параметрах з урахуванням водності року за весь період його експлуатації: багатоводний 1970 рік, маловодний 1972 рік, дуже маловодний 2015 рік, а також середньобагаторічний період за 1966–2017 роки його експлуатації. Дослідження щодо корисного об’єму водосховища визначають більш реальну динаміку та можливості експлуатації робочої частини водойми. Визначено коефіцієнти інтенсивності й показники зовнішнього водообміну по кожному місяцю року і місяці з максимальною і мінімальною інтенсивностями зовнішнього водообміну в часових одиницях, основний фактор впливу на нього – бічну приточність у водосховище. Максимальна інтенсивність зовнішнього водообміну у водосховищі в дуже маловодному році у весняний та осінній періоди його експлуатації погіршилася порівняно з багатоводним роком у три з половиною і три рази. Встановлено, що чим більше коефіцієнт інтенсивності зовнішнього водообміну, тим менше показник зовнішнього водообміну в часових одиницях й інтенсивніше відбувається зміна і самоочищення води у водосховищі. Якщо показник зовнішнього водообміну менше одиниці, то зміна нормативних водних ресурсів водосховища відбуватиметься менше ніж за рік. Результати досліджень можуть бути корисними для розробки режимів експлуатації водосховища в умовах зміни клімату. Бібл. 6, табл. 1, рис. 8.

Feline herpesvirus is widespread and initiates respiratory infections in representatives of the feline family, including in Moscow. The article shows that acute herpesvirus infection in cats occurs with upper respiratory tract syndrome, conjunctivitis, and fever. Sick cats of various breeds and contents were identified, but more often they get sick at the age of 2 months to a year. The virus is transmitted aerogenically and with secretions from the nose, mouth, eyes when sick animals come into contact with healthy ones. Various stress factors, colds, cause the reactivation of the virus also with release into the environment. Therefore, the disease is more often recorded in the cold season (homeless animals) and during the rainy season it lasts 7–10 days but a relapse or transition to a chronic form is possible. With the group keeping of cats (shelter), the disease can significantly spread and acquire the character of an epizootic. PCR is an objective assessment criterion for virus detection and differential diagnosis.

The article provides information about the commodity and technological properties of fresh-dry skins obtained from silver foxes infested with the nematode Toxascaris leonina, when added to the feed of the therapeutic and preventive complex DLK. Changes in the composition of the microflora of the gastrointestinal tract were shown in helminthiasis, and a violation of the formation of hair in young silver foxes was found, which further leads to a deterioration in the quality of freshdry skin. The addition of a sulfur-containing complex to the feed mixture allows infested animals to recover their hair faster, improve their product and technological properties, and improve the quality of fresh – dry silver Fox skins of cellular breeding
Czy ryby ulegają stresowi?
Authors: Kłak Katarzyna , Chadzińska Magdalena
Published: March 2021

Mechanizm reakcji na stres jest konserwatywny ewolucyjnie, w związku z tym mimo odmiennego środowiska życia, odpowiedź stresową ryb doskonałokostnych charakteryzuje wiele podobieństw do kręgowców lądowych. Obejmują one główne przekaźniki osi układ współczulny-komórki chromafinowe (odpowiednik osi układ współczulny-rdzeń nadnerczy) oraz osi podwzgórze-przysadka-komórki śródnerkowe nerki głowowej (funkcjonalny analog osi podwzgórze-przysadka-nadnercza), a także ich główne funkcje. Współdziałanie układu neuroendokrynnego i układu odpornościowego stanowi integralną część fizjologii, nieodzowną dla utrzymania homeostazy. Zakłócenie złożonych interakcji neuro-endokrynno-immunologicznych ma negatywny wpływ na stan zdrowia i ogólny dobrostan zwierząt i ludzi. Ryby doskonałokostne stanowią szczególnie intrygujący model w zakresie badań wpływu stresu na odporność, ponieważ funkcje immunologiczne i hormonalne są u nich zintegrowane w obrębie jednego narządu - nerki głowowej. W konsekwencji procesy immunologiczne podlegają bezpośredniej modulacji parakrynnej. Celem niniejszej pracy jest przedstawienie przeglądu aktualnej wiedzy na temat przebiegu reakcji stresowej u ryb i jej roli w regulacji odporności ryb.
Zależności między poziomem witaminy D a ilością tkanki tłuszczowej człowieka

Published: March 2021

Witamina D3 poza utrzymaniem homeostazy wapniowo-fosforanowej ma również istotny wpływ m.in. na układ odpornościowy, mięśniowy czy krwionośny. Dzięki występowaniu receptorów dla witaminy D w wielu komórkach organizmu, obserwuje się jej działanie wielokierunkowe. Nieprawidłowa dieta oraz brak ekspozycji na światło słoneczne, mogą prowadzić do powstawania niedoborów wit. D i sprzyjać rozwojowi np. osteoporozy oraz krzywicy u dzieci. Ostatnie badania dowiodły, iż zmiany poziomiu wit. D mogą wpływać m.in. na powstawanie chorób metabolicznych, tj. cukrzycy typu I, prowadząc do rozwoju nadwagi i otyłości. U osób z obniżonym poziomem wit. D obserwuje się występowanie zwiększonej masy ciała, co może wiązać się z hipotezą tzw. odkładania wit. D w nadmiernej ilości tkanki tłuszczowej. Z drugiej strony istnieją doniesienia świadczące o tym, że wit. D wpływa na zmniejszenie ilości tkanki tłuszczowej. Należy przeprowadzić więcej badań weryfikujących molekularne podłoża korelacji między stężeniem witaminy D a występowaniem nadwagi i otyłości.

14 stycznia 2021 r. po długiej chorobie odszedł profesor Andrzej Grębecki wybitny biolog komórki, zasłużony dla nauki w Polsce i na świecie, nauczyciel i wychowawca. Profesor Andrzej Grębecki ukończył Wydział Matematyczno-Przyrodniczy Uniwersytetu Łódzkiego w 1952 r., a w 1956 r. obronił pracę doktorską pod kierunkiem prof. Jana Dembowskiego. Profesor Grębecki przez wiele lat (1973-2002) kierował Pracownią Morfodynamiki Prostych Systemów Ruchowych w Zakładzie Biologii Komórki, Instytutu Nenckiego PAN. Ponadto aktywnie uczestniczył w życiu Instytutu, w którym m.in. pełnił funkcję zastępcy dyrektora d/s naukowych (1975-1981) oraz kierownika studium doktoranckiego (1975-1979). Przez dwie kadencje w latach 1984-1989 był przewodniczącym Rady Naukowej Instytutu Nenckiego. Profesor Grębecki w latach 1984-1989 był członkiem Rady Polskiej Sieci Biologii Komórkowej i Molekularnej UNESCO, a 1993-1997 członkiem International Commission of Protozoology.
Zainteresowania naukowe profesora Grębeckiego skupiały się na badaniu mechanizmów ruchu komórek. Był On autorem ponad 160 opublikowanych pozycji naukowych, obejmujących  pierwsze w literaturze prace o roli wapnia w regulacji ruchu rzęskowego. Następnie swoje zainteresowania naukowe profesor Grębecki skupił na badaniach fizjologii ruchu amebowego, których wyniki publikował w bardzo prestiżowych czasopismach międzynarodowych: m.in. Journal of Cell Science, European Journal of Cell Biology, Cell Biology International Reports. Główne założenia dotyczące teorii ogólnego skurczu kortykalnego zawarł w obszernej monografii ?Membrane and cytoskeleton flow in motile cells with emphasis on the contribution of free-living Amoebae?, opublikowanej w International Review of Cytology (1994). Dowodem międzynarodowego uznania dorobku profesora Grębeckiego było jego członkostwo w pracy komitetów redakcyjnych międzynarodowych czasopism naukowych: Acta Protozool. (Warszawa), Eur.J.Protistol. (Stuttgart) i Protistology (Omsk). Za swoje osiągnięcia naukowe i organizacyjne był wielokrotnie nagradzany wyróżnieniami i odznaczeniami państwowymi (m.in. Krzyż Oficerski Orderu Odrodzenia Polski - 1998).

The present research is aimed to determine the mindfulness as a predictor of job satisfaction
and job stress among print media journalists in Pakistan. Convenient sampling has been used
to gather the data of 126 print media journalists in Islamabad-Pakistan. Both males n=102
and females n= 24 were approached. The questionnaires were delivered comprising of three
instruments. Scale of Mindfulness Attention Awareness Scale (MAAS) developed by (Brown
&Ryan; 2003), Job satisfaction scale by (Peter Maclytyre; 1992) and job stress by Yonkers
were given to the participants. The results indicate that mindfulness is a significant predictor
of the job satisfaction among print media journalists while there is reported negative impact
of mindfulness on job stress. There are no significant gender differences reported on the
degree of consciousness, job satisfaction and task stress. The findings support the existing
literature emphasizing the importance of mindfulness in the organization sector.

This study aims to know the impact of online learning experienced by teachers and students during the elevate Covid-19 pandemic. This study uses qualitative research, which collects data information using interview techniques, namely to find data about relevant matters. The research subjects were students of SD N Sugihan 03, Bendosari. The results showed that the learning process during the pandemic changed by using a long distance network. This impacts teachers because of a lack of ability to provide learning materials and an annoyance of the learning process that causes the unexpected purpose of learning to go unfulfilled. So that it makes the material incomplete and the use of learning media in online learning is not optimal. Student assessment is also constrained by mere cognitive assessments.

Mathematics studied in school is abstract and has no benefit in their life or culture, so mathematics is hard for students to understand. However, students do not realize that mathematical concepts have applied in everyday life. Ethnomathematics is an approach that links mathematics and culture very closely. One of them is a form of woven motifs made of palm leaves that is related to mathematical concepts. This study aims to: 1) Identify the motives found in palm leaf matting in the Lamaholot culture. 2) Knowing the relationship between palm leaf woven motifs in the Lamaholot culture with mathematics learning in schools. The research method used is qualitative with an ethnographic approach. Data collection used observation, interviews and documentation. The data analysis techniques used were observation, interview and documentation. The results showed that the woven motif of palm leaves has a relationship with mathematics. In the woven motif of palm leaves in the form of a flat geometric shape, the dese woven motif has a rhombus plane geometric shape and osan has a parallelogram geometric shape, the sebeng and sodong woven motifs have an isosceles triangle flat geometric shape and the woven klekar motif has a shape hexagon plane geometry. But the people in Atawai Village do not know that the culture they apply and use is related to learning mathematics.
