This article is an empirical legal research with a maqasid al-Shari'ah approach. The method used is descriptive qualitative. The research results show that the iconic traditions of Malay Pontianak are in accordance with the principles of maqasid al-Shari'ah. This fact is evidenced by the preservation of five main aspects of human life, including the growth of religious values that provide steadfastness in faith towards Allah SWT (hifdz al-din), the development of a characterful soul, physical and spiritual health (hifdz al-nafs), contributing to the development of new knowledge through positive analytical thinking (hifdz al-aql), contributing to a sense of gratitude and a good understanding of wealth management (hifdz al-mal), and preserving the culture and social environment to achieve a peaceful way of life (hifdz al-nasbi).
Facile access to 3-sulfonylquinolines via Knoevenagel condensation/aza-Wittig reaction cascade involving ortho-azidobenzaldehydes and β-ketosulfonamides and sulfones
Authors: Malkova Ksenia , Bubyrev Andrey , Kalinin Stanislav , Dar’in Dmitry
Published: June 2023

Quinoline-based sulfonyl derivatives, and especially sulfonamides, are relevant and promising structures for drug design. We have developed a new convenient protocol for the synthesis of 3-sulfonyl-substituted quinolines (sulfonamides and sulfones). The approach is based on a Knoevenagel condensation/aza-Wittig reaction cascade involving o-azidobenzaldehydes and ketosulfonamides or ketosulfones as key building blocks. The protocol is appropriate for both ketosulfonyl reagents and α-sulfonyl-substituted alkyl acetates providing the target quinoline derivatives in good to excellent yields.
Examining The “Specialness” of Cultural Districts
Authors: Hersey Leigh Nanney , Gallagher B. Kathleen
Published: June 2023

Cultural districts are an increasing form of single-purpose government. Rhode Island passed the first statewide legislation outlining the structure for state cultural districts (SCDs) in 1998. Since then, 17 additional states have passed similar legislation leading to more than 343 districts across the United States, with regular announcements of additional designations. Even though these SCDs have been in existence for nearly 25 years, there has been limited research undertaken to explore them as a population. Studies using a public administration framework are even more rare. One area especially deficient is the evaluation of cultural districts, a practice that is common for most public programs. This article opens this conversation in public administration by providing comprehensive descriptive data on cultural districts. It also examines the current reporting methods of cultural districts. From this research, cultural district administrators can improve their reporting and accountability to the public. They can also make better decisions informed by the data they are collecting.
New South Wales State Government Failure? An Empirical Analysis of the Cootamundra Gundagai Regional Council Forced Merger
Authors: Dollery Brian , Drew Joseph
Published: June 2023

Summary at a Glance

Under the NSW Government's forced amalgamation program, the Cootamundra and Gundagai councils were merged in 2016. This paper examines the outcomes of the amalgamation by comparing the estimated outcomes prepared by NSW Government agencies and KPMG with the actual outcomes after four years post-merger. It demonstrates that the merger has failed on almost all counts.

As part of the controversial local government structural reform program in NSW, the Cootamundra and Gundagai shire councils were forcibly amalgamated into the Cootamundra Gundagai Regional Council (CGRC) in 2016. Various documents and commissioned reports prepared by NSW government agencies, commercial consultants KPMG and the NSW Boundaries Commission Delegate all claimed that significant cost savings and other financial benefits would flow from the consolidated CGRC. Using data from the four post-merger financial years, in this paper we examine these claims against observed financial and operational efficiency outcomes at the CGRC. Three different analyses are conducted: aggregate accounting measures are examined, financial ratio analysis is used for performance comparison, and operational efficiency is estimated through Data Envelopment Analysis. All three analyses decisively demonstrate that the CGRC has not only failed to reap the claimed cost savings and other financial benefits, but its fiscal performance has deteriorated sharply. In sum, the CGRC represents a clear case of NSW state government policy failure.
Creating Cohesive Volunteer Groups: The Role of Group Identification in Volunteer Fire Services
Authors: Henderson Alexander C. , Sowa Jessica
Published: June 2023

Critical services are delivered to the public through collaborative or group activity, and building the skills to work effectively with others is arguably an essential core competency for those serving the public through nonprofit organizations. This article examines the question of how to foster effective groups when members of those groups are volunteers who engage in complex and dangerous work with low control over their job environments—volunteer firefighters. Using survey data from firefighters, we explore the question of how volunteers view their group experience— the degree to which they perceive cohesive groups through dimensions of affective, behavioral, and cognitive group identification — and what factors impact this group identification. Results indicate that transformational leadership impacts both affective and cognitive identification, while participation efficacy impacts behavioral and cognitive group identification. Extensive and collective group training experiences have a positive effect on all three types of identification. The article concludes with discussion and implications for nonprofit and volunteer management and how to harness these identification processes to build more cohesive volunteer groups.
Cannabis Policy Adaptation: Exploring Frameworks of State Policy Characteristics
Authors: Neeley Grant W. , Richardson Lilliard E.
Published: June 2023

Thirty-six states adopted some form of legalized cannabis by 2020, and policy characteristics varied considerably across the states. Nineteen of those states initially adopted legalized cannabis via ballot measure, and seventeen initially adopted via legislation. Implementation of cannabis policy across these types of policy adoption differed substantially in process and policy design. To characterize the policy environment, we develop a unique coding scheme for legalized cannabis with policy characteristics aggregated into three policy bundles. The pharmaceutical bundle treats cannabis as a legal but regulated drug. The permissive bundle allows greater individual discretion on cannabis use. The fiscal bundle treats cannabis as a potential revenue source. Using these policy bundles from the years 1994-2020, we explore how states continue to modify their policy approaches in the implementation period and assess the factors shaping policy adaptation over time, such as administrative capacity, partisan control, state fiscal health, and economic factors.
Economic Governance of Cannabis: The Implications of Polycentric Governance in Mendocino County
Authors: Taylor Keith , Goodman Nathan , Kavousi Parisa , Giamo Taylor , Arnold Gwen , Plakias Zoë
Published: June 2023

The 2016 passage of California's Proposition 64, legalizing recreational (adult-use) cannabis, was justified ex ante in part for its potential to encourage restorative justice and positive local and state economic outcomes. But are the local institutions administering Proposition 64 achieving these aims? We address this question via a two-year case study of Mendocino County's polycentric cannabis governance system using a mixed methods approach including archival analysis, cannabis industry and governance system interviews, and participant observation. Evidence from our case study suggests that Mendocino's ability to achieve these goals is hampered by three quasi-market failures: interjurisdictional conflict, coproduction deficits, and devolution without adequate fiscal decentralization. A major driver in these quasi-market failures is the substantial regulatory and enforcement responsibility this governance system places on local government. We conclude by discussing some institutional structures that may address these failures.
Policy Reform in a Colonial Setting: A Historical Discourse Analysis of George Stark’s Advocacy for Technical-Vocational Education
Authors: Chimbi Godsend T. , Jita Loyiso C.
Published: June 2023

Colonial education is often criticized for being conservative, static, oppressive, and irrelevant to the needs and interests of the colonized people. This theoretical paper, however, disrupts the established narrative of condemnation by challenging scholars of curriculum reform to take a fresh look at colonial education policy. This study teases George Stark’s policy of technical-vocational education for Africans by employing critical policy historiography as the theoretical framework and historical discourse analysis as its methodology. Two questions drive this theoretical paper: What were the central tenets of George Stark’s curriculum reform policy in Rhodesia, and what lessons can be drawn from this policy to inform contemporary education reform in Zimbabwean secondary schools? From the research findings, it cannot be disputed that Stark’s reform policy for African education in colonial Rhodesia (now Zimbabwe) was fervently racist and discriminatory, as it was framed within the overarching scope of white hegemony. But his advocacy for a practical technical-vocational curriculum for Africans seems pragmatic, visionary, and prophetic. These findings become more compelling when considering the current clarion call for worldwide technical-vocational education. As if policy planners are scavenging nuggets from Stark’s widely condemned colonial script, the Zimbabwe government is currently piloting a reform initiative to transform secondary education from an academic to a practical-oriented curriculum. In light of these findings, it appears there are several lessons to be drawn from Stark’s colonial policy for technical-vocational education to inform current curriculum reform and practice in Zimbabwe and globally.

Patterning Constitutional Conflicts in the Church of Christ in Zimbabwe
Authors: Masengwe Gift , Dube Bekithemba
Published: June 2023

This paper set out to analyse the patterning of conflict in the Church of Christ in Zimbabwe (COCZ) with the introduction of the Constitution; which has been described as an unfair proposition, given that conflict is inevitable in a postmodern society. Conflicts in communities have largely been caused by resource scarcity, group affinities, and poor leadership. The study used data collected from participants who were purposively selected to answer electronic questions posted on a WhatsApp group platform for this study. They were randomly chosen from the national fellowship of the COCZ pastors. The study observed that conflict was caused by the shifting centres of power through the adoption of the Somabhula Conference Centre. These conflicts thus bolster a deeper appreciation of Christian identity and mission in contemporary ecclesiastical circles. The data analysed revealed that there are three frameworks: concept, content, and composition of constitutions. It also revealed that conflicts in Zimbabwean churches happened in the Anglican Diocese of Harare; the Apostolic Faith Mission of Zimbabwe; the Baptist Convention of Zimbabwe and the Marange Apostles’ succession battles. Positively, conflicts have been observed to remove complacency among the leadership and followership. It concluded that citing the 2015 Constitution, therefore, becomes an unfair proposition as conflicts occurred in the history of mission churches in Zimbabwe inclusive of the conflicts in the COCZ history. This study contributes in a small measure to discussions around international best practices for resolving church conflicts. Keywords: Constitutions, Conflicts, Conflict Resolution Mechanisms, Church of Christ in Zimbabwe

Real-time Technosignature Strategies with SN 2023ixf
Authors: Davenport James R. A. , Sheikh Sofia Z. , Farah Wael , Nilipour Andy , Cabrales Bárbara , Croft Steve , Pollak Alexander W. , Siemion Andrew P. V.
Published: June 2023

Several technosignature techniques focus on historic events such as SN 1987A as the basis to search for coordinated signal broadcasts from extraterrestrial agents. The recently discovered SN 2023ixf in the spiral galaxy M101 is the nearest Type II supernova in over a decade, and will serve as an important benchmark event. Here we review the potential for SN 2023ixf to advance ongoing techonsignature searches, particularly signal-synchronization techniques such as the “SETI Ellipsoid” that identifies over time stars that could transmit signals after observing a supernovae event. We find that more than 100 stars within 100 pc are already close to intersecting this SETI Ellipsoid, providing numerous targets for real-time monitoring within ∼3° of SN 2023ixf. We are commencing a radio technosignature monitoring campaign of these targets with the Allen Telescope Array and the Green Bank Telescope.

Quand le travail de prédation tue le travail de production
Authors: Petit Christophe
Published: June 2023

Ce texte est évidemment un texte polémique. Cette thèse s’inspire de la pensée de Veblen et de ses continuateurs contemporains que sont Nitzan, Graeber et Hudson. Pour Veblen, l’analyse d’une économie comprend trois dimensions : les pulsions, les techniques et les institutions avec au centre des institutions la monnaie qui est la condition de possibilité des autres institutions. La lutte des classes est alors la lutte des classes pour l’appropriation des moyens de production de monnaie qui surdétermine la lutte des classes pour l’appropriation des moyens de production de biens et de services. Cet article avance l’idée que l’institution monétaire est devenue inadaptée au paradigme technique numérique et que la classe productive ne peut donc plus s’opposer à la noblesse financière et au clergé managérial sans une création monétaire démocratique, c’est-à-dire un revenu inconditionnel financé par la création monétaire.
Modelling the interaction of invasive-invaded species based on the general Bramson dynamics and with a density dependant diffusion and advection
Authors: Palencia José Luis Díaz , Otero Abraham
Published: June 2023

The main goal of the presented study is to introduce a model of a pairwise invasion interaction with a nonlinear diffusion and advection. The new equation is based on the further general works introduced by Bramson (1988) to describe the invasive-invaded dynamics. This type of model is made particular with a density dependent diffusion along with an advection term. The new resulting model is then analyzed to explore the regularity, existence and uniqueness of solutions. It is well known that density dependent diffusion operators induce a propagating front with finite speed for compactly supported functions. Based on this, we introduce an analytical approach to determine the evolution of such a propagating front in the invasion dynamics. Afterward, we study the problem with travelling wave profiles and a numerical assessment. As a main finding to remark: When both species propagate with significantly different travelling wave speeds, the interaction becomes unstable, while when the species propagate with similar low speeds, the interaction stabilizes.
Survival analysis and probability density function of switching heroin model

We study a switching heroin epidemic model in this paper, in which the switching of supply of heroin occurs due to the flowering period and fruiting period of opium poppy plants. Precisely, we give three equations to represent the dynamics of the susceptible, the dynamics of the untreated drug addicts and the dynamics of the drug addicts under treatment, respectively, within a local population, and the coefficients of each equation are functions of Markov chains taking values in a finite state space. The first concern is to prove the existence and uniqueness of a global positive solution to the switching model. Then, the survival dynamics including the extinction and persistence of the untreated drug addicts under some moderate conditions are derived. The corresponding numerical simulations reveal that the densities of sample paths depend on regime switching, and larger intensities of the white noises yield earlier times for extinction of the untreated drug addicts. Especially, when the switching model degenerates to the constant model, we show the existence of the positive equilibrium point under moderate conditions, and we give the expression of the probability density function around the positive equilibrium point.
On ne sent pas ce que peut le corps. Y a-t-il un sentiment d’unité entre corps et esprit chez Spinoza ?
Authors: GARCIA Julien
Published: June 2023

Spinoza mobilise toutes les armes que peut lui offrir son Éthique ‒ du « cri de guerre » jusqu’aux démonstrations les plus minutieuses ‒ pour s’attaquer au dualisme qui nous maintient dans l’illusion que nous serions davantage notre esprit que notre corps. Mais il se pourrait bien que l’une comme l’autre de ces armes manifestent un défaut qui les rend impuissantes. L’unité du corps et de l’esprit ne peut pas être comprise tant qu’elle n’est pas sentie. Nous nous proposons de montrer ici que Spinoza souligne précisément le défaut de ce sentiment et s’efforce de mettre à notre disposition les moyens qui nous permettront de sentir que nous sommes notre corps autant que notre esprit.

Published: June 2023

Two universities, the University of Jaén, Spain and the University of San Carlos, Guatemala, in partnership with Quantum Systems GmbH, a German company, conducted an expedition to the Maya Tropical Forest in the Yaxhà-Nakum-Naranjo National Park of El Petén (El Triangulo Cultural), Guatemala, using LiDAR technology. The article takes its cue from the description of this case study and focuses on the application of LiDAR technology to fixed-wing VTOL drones beyond the pilot's line of sight. The context presents significant challenges due to the impenetrability and vegetation of the forest, which protects Maya archaeology but is also a major degradation factor. The authors analyzed the benefits and challenges of using LiDAR for spatial archaeology and concerning the new frontiers of digitization.
Deep Learning Models for Airport Demand Forecasting With Google Trends
Authors: Koçak Bahri Baran
Published: June 2023

Managers gain new insights into how operational benefits can be achieved. Forecasting problems for passenger flow in airports are gaining interest among marketing researchers, but comparison of stochastic optimisation methods via deep learning forecasts with search query data is not yet available in the aviation field. To fill this gap, the current study predicts the demand of Madrid airport demand with Google search query data using H2O deep learning method. The findings indicate that there is a long-term relationship between search queries and actual passenger demand. Besides, search queries “fly to madrid,” and “flights to madrid spain” were found to be the cause of the actual domestic air passenger demand in Madrid. Also, to determine the best forecasting accuracy, stochastic gradient descent (SGD) optimisers were used. Specifically, findings indicate that Adam is a better optimiser increasing forecasting accuracy for Madrid airports.

In the modern era social media (SM) plays a vital role in everyone's life; there are many challenging issues and problems in social media (SM). Among them, self-esteem (SE) and body image (BI) analysis of behavior are major concerns in this area. Therefore, in this article a data-driven model is proposed to analyze social networking sites affect the different attributes of teenage girls. In the current era, the key source of information is social media (SM) which targets different features such as body image (BI), self-esteem (SE), etc., among individuals. For this purpose, the authors perform data collection, cleaning, and data processing; then they apply an artificial intelligence technique to investigate the effect of social media (SM) among teenage girls.
