Published: February 2024

The text is an attempt to show the significance of searching for God’s presence in contemporary world. The basis for reflection comprises many texts and books written by John Paul II with a particular emphasis on his poetical creations as they do not only demonstrate diverse symbolic understanding of water, streams, springs etc., but also touch on the subject of God hidden from human sight, often inside a man himself. The starting point for the reflection is Roman Triptych and its interpretation is backed by texts written by different authors. Some points made in the stream of thoughts refer directly to the war between Russia and Ukraine.

Use of Equalities and Inequalities System to demonstrate the Four Color Theorem
Authors: Jansen José Ulisses
Published: February 2024

The Four-Color Theorem (T4C) originated from the attempt to resolve the challenge of coloring maps over a plane or spherical surface. Over a century and a half, this problem underwent various abstractions until finding resolution in 1976. The proposed solution, which is groundbreaking, computationally calculates the multitude of representations of flat maps. Despite its resolution, the absence of a formal proof for this problem using traditional mathematical tools induces some unease, and a readily comprehensible solution is desirable. Nowadays, numerous articles propose diverse solutions to this problem but none of which have garnered official recognition. Taking a distinctive approach, solutions grounded in function properties and infinitesimal discretization were presented by this author in 2021 and 2023.

This article introduces an infinite covering of a map by a set of parallel lines, effectively capturing the structure of the map. A series of segmented straight lines are generated, and it is demonstrated that they are paintable with Four Colors, implying that the corresponding maps are colorable by Four Colors as well.
President of the Czech Republic in external relations
Authors: Kamińska Agnieszka Gloria
Published: February 2024

The President of the Czech Republic, functioning as one of the two constitutional organs of the executive power, has acquired significant powers in the sphere of external relations. In addition to the classical powers in the field of active legation (appointing heads of Czech diplomatic missions) and passive legation (receiving representatives of foreign states and international organizations), he has the constitutional right to conclude international agreements (with the possibility of ceding it to the government or government members) and a monopoly on authorization to ratify (and denounce) agreements already concluded. With the accession of the Czech Republic to the European Union, he acquired in the procedure of a constitutional amendment act (established on 14 November 2002) the authorization to hold a referendum on the accession of the Czech Republic to the EU and to announce the results of this referendum, which created a precedent for the procedure for making decisions on important issues of the Czech state’s membership in the European Union.
The impact of the rules of administrative enforcement proceedings on the protection of the rights of the obligated in administrative enforcement proceedings
Authors: Rogowska Beata , Żmuda Bartosz
Published: February 2024

The article attempts to show the impact of the rules of enforcement proceedings in administration on the protection of the rights of the obligated in the administrative enforcement procedure. Of the three groups of rules characteristic to administrative enforcement, the focus was on those contained in the Act on enforcement proceedings in administration. The rules play an important role in the course of enforcement proceedings, especially in relation to the protection of the legal situation of the obligor. They constitute the statutory basis for encroaching on the sphere of rights and freedoms of an individual in accordance with the purpose of enforcement. Attention was also drawn to the role of the debtor as the basic and most important subject of enforcement proceedings in the administration and to the fact that during the enforcement procedure there is interference in the sphere of rights and freedoms of the individual. Forced enforcement may not cause excessive pain to the obligor, which seems particularly important in the context of issues such as rising inflation, the energy crisis or the socio-economic situation caused by the covid-19 pandemic. The article uses research methods such as normative and institutional analysis, the method of analyzing documents and legal acts currently in force.
STUDY OF LUBRICANT ADDITIVES FOR EXPANSION PIPE EXPANSION IN MONODIAMETER WELLS
Authors: Yousef A. , Yahin A.R. , Yusupova L.F. , Ali N.M.
Published: February 2024

There is a need to improve well design and completion in order to reduce material intensity while maintaining sufficient casing cross-sections. One of the possible solutions for this is the construction of mono-diameter wells using expandable casing technology. The technology of drilling wells with the same fixed bore diameter from the wellhead to the productive formation could solve many problems and limitations in the construction of wells, opening up opportunities for the development of large oil and gas reserves that are currently classified as difficult to recover or inaccessible. The technology of drilling monodiameter wells also reduces drilling volumes, reduces the adverse impact on the environment and, ultimately, leads to minimization of construction costs.For purposeful choice of flushing fluid components, especially reagents of complex action and lubricating additives necessary for drilling of mono-diameter wells, their preliminary laboratory tests on experimental installations providing physical similarity of interaction processes (wear) of friction pairs in relation to drilling technology are required. The task of this article is to study lubricating additives for reaming of reaming pipe in mono-diameter wells for subsequent selection of the most optimal of them. The experiments were carried out on the wellknown universal machine II 5018, designed for testing friction and wear of metals and alloys, hard engineering plastics and composites. The loading system and the II 5018 work unit were upgraded to simulate the processes being studied. During the experiments, the friction coefficient and wear rate of the sample were measured. To carry out the research, various lubricating and cooling media used in drilling technology were selected.

Application of gels for well water shutoff has become a part of oilfield practice, and this direction is constantly evolving due to several objective reasons. The main reason is the growing water cut of well production, and repair and isolation operations using hydrogels occupy a worthy place in this segment of technological processes for limiting water inflow. The second reason for oilfield workers’ interest in hydrogels for water shutoff is related to the possibility of smooth regulation of their properties: they are injected with low viscosity, then mature in the required isolation interval, and their viscosity and structural-mechanical properties increase multiple times. The penetration ability of gelants (immature gels) into porous media far exceeds traditional cement slurries and synthetic curing resins. An important reason for the interest of scientists and engineers in the oil industry in hydrogels is the possibility of complexing technology: after injection they are reinforced by cement slurry or curing resins, which synergistically increases the effect of water isolation. Also, gel-forming compositions can be easily transformed into foam-gel compositions by simple manipulations, which increases their isolation efficiency. In terms of rheological characteristics, hydrogels, depending on whether they are based on organic or inorganic materials, have viscoelastic or viscoplastic properties. Organic-inorganic hybrid plugging materials combine both of these important properties, allowing hydrogels of different natures and structures to be used for targeted blocking of the source of water inflow.This article emphasizes the primary importance of determining the source of well watering, depending on which the treatment design is already built, and the appropriate materials are selected.
APPLICATION OF VISCOELASTIC SYSTEMS IN OIL PRODUCTION INTENSIFICATION PROCESSES

Published: February 2024

This paper provides an overview of viscoelastic behavior and the use of viscoelastic fluids (VBLs) in various oil production intensification processes. The first part provides basic models describing viscoelastic behavior and corresponding equations of state. Describes the method of testing under the action of harmonic vibrations (method of dynamic tests), possible options for its implementation and the determined rheological properties of the viscoelastic sample. To interpret the results of dynamic tests, a complex module is most often introduced, which consists of two components — the elastic modulus (G’) and the loss modulus (G’’). These dynamic modules and their relationship describe the behavior of the viscoelastic sample. It is shown that with respect to modules, it is possible to conclude on the type of sample - viscoelastic liquid or viscoelastic body. It is also noted that dynamic tests should be carried out in the area of low amplitudes of oscillating loads, in which the rheological properties do not depend on the applied stress or strain. The second part provides examples of viscoelastic systems used in operations such as water flow isolation, hydraulic fracturing, and modified acid treatments. The most common viscoelastic systems used in various technologies are solutions of surfactants and polymers of different structures. It is noted that in order to obtain a viscoelastic gel, polymer solutions are used with a crosslinker, while the rheological properties of surfactant solutions are controlled by external factors — pH, temperature, water mineralization. Viscoelastic surfactant solutions have an advantage over polymer solutions ‑ they are able to recover their properties after mechanical or thermal exposure due to the formation of supramolecular structures as a result of selforganization of surfactant molecules. The surfactant-based HLT property of reversibly collapsing and recovering is used, in particular, to reduce pressure losses to overcome friction. In flow-deflecting acid compositions, viscoelastic surfactants are mainly used, the most common of which are given in the second part of the article.

Authors: not provided jessica.jaja
Published: February 2024

Climate Change has significant detrimental impacts on human health, well-being, and mortality. As the first responder during a climate crisis, primary healthcare is implicated by increased patient demand and burden on the system. Paradoxically, primary healthcare, and the healthcare sector as a whole, are major greenhouse gas emitters and contributors to anthropocentric global warming. In Australia, few studies have been conducted on the effects of the primary healthcare sector on the environment. This study was conducted to understand the impact of primary care on the environment. Greenhouse gas, CO2, and CO2-equivalent emissions are investigated to elucidate the environmental impact.

Protocol SAM-Seq A.Thaliana v2
Authors: not provided basile.leduque , Leandro Quadrana
Published: February 2024

Background: Epigenetic modifications, including chromatin accessibility, nucleosome positioning, and DNA methylation (5mC), are pivotal in shaping genome function. However, current short read sequencing approaches present challenges in characterising epigenetic patterns along repetitive genomic regions. Results: We developed Simultaneous Accessibility and DNA Methylation Sequencing (SAM-seq), a robust method utilising bacterial adenine methyltransferases (m6A-MTases) to mark accessible regions in purified plant nuclei. Coupled with Oxford Nanopore Technology sequencing, SAM-seq enables high-resolution profiling of cytosine methylation and m6A-tagged chromatin accessibility along individual chromatin fibres in A. thaliana and maize. Importantly, using naked genomic DNA we uncovered significant sequence preferences of m6A-MTases, which we show must be taken into account in order to obtain reliable accessibility profiles, particularly for the analysis of highly repetitive sequences such as centromeric repeats. Using this method we found intriguing antagonism between accessibility and DNA methylation within single molecules, somatic epigenetic variation at bivalent chromatin domains, periodicity of nucleosomal strings over centromeric repeats, and high-resolution methylation profiles over nucleosomes. Conclusions: Our study highlights the importance of considering intrinsic substrate preferences of DNA modifying enzymes for their use in chromatin profiling. Hence, SAM-seq is a robust and cross-species method to chart high-resolution accessibility and DNA methylation genome-wide. This method and findings will enable the investigation of chromatin-based regulation across plant species, with implications for the study of non-model plant species with limited genomic and epigenomic information.

Published: February 2024

Social media serves as a means for users to place themselves in the desired framework. Through social media, people can quickly build relationships, add insight, shape, express, and display their identity. Discussions about self-identity become unique and exciting when a Baduy citizen uses social media and forms his identity. Of course, we already know that the Baduy are one of the tribes in the Banten region and are a group of indigenous peoples in the interior who still adhere to the culture of their ancestors. The purpose of this study is to examine how outside Baduy residents construct their identities on Instagram social media. This research uses a qualitative approach with a case study method. The study results show that outside Baduy residents are familiar with gadgets and Instagram social media. The motive for using social media is to promote Baduy products and culture. Instagram makes it easy to access information. The construction of self-identity on Instagram is shown by posting pictures of Baduy characteristics or identities, such as the Instagram account name added with the word "Baduy", Baduy clothes and accessories, daily activities in Kanekes Village, and original Baduy products and customs.

Authors: Mohd Yusof Sabrina , Razak Nor Farhah , Zakaria Ikhwan
Published: February 2024

Teaching and learning chemistry at all levels of education have faced numerous challenges. These challenges include students' struggles with problem-solving skills, limited spatial visualization abilities, difficulties in grasping chemistry vocabulary, and inadequate communication between students and teachers. As a result, researchers across various educational contexts have consistently advocated for the creation of a learning methods that effectively addresses these difficulties. This research delves into an examination of the pedagogical approaches, both as currently perceived and preferred, among PERMATA@Pintar College students in the realm of chemistry education. The investigation concentrates on two primary pedagogical paradigms: student-centered teaching and teacher-centered teaching. The study encompasses a cohort of 150 students ranging in age from 13 to 18 years. To gauge the students' perceptions of their teachers' instructional methods and their own preferences, a revised version of the Approaches to Teaching Inventory (ATI) originally developed by Prosser and Trigwell was employed.The findings of this study reveal that the prevailing pedagogical approach in chemistry classes appears to strike a balance between teacher-centered and student-centered learning. However, in terms of the students' own inclinations, they exhibit a slight preference for the teacher-centered method, emphasizing information transfer, over the student-centered approach, which emphasizes conceptual change. Interestingly, when considering the desired shift in teaching methods as envisioned by the students, their preference leans significantly towards an increased frequency of student-centered methods, highlighting a distinct preference for these methods over teacher-centered ones.

Banjarejo Village is one of the villages within the administrative area of Pakis District, Malang Regency. As a village with an area classified as lowland, Banjarejo village has a lot of potential that is very promising to be developed into a tourist village. Thus, it is necessary to develop the location of the umbulan water reservoir in Banjarejo Village. The intended development is the addition of tourist spots around the location to attract tourists. The planned tourist spots should have a child-friendly concept and can also be used as tourist spots that increase children's agility so that children can play while practicing their agility. The military training-based agility playground spot is a play spot that can attract tourists, especially those with children. In addition, this playground spot can increase the agility and liveliness of children. This playground spot is based on military training because the spots on the playground resemble military training. This playground spot will be implemented in the umbulan source reservoir area in Banjarejo Village. With this military training-based playground spot, it can increase the attractiveness of tourists to visit the umbulan source reservoir in Banjarejo Village.

Desa Banjarejo merupakan salah satu desa yang berada dalam kawasan administratif Kecamatan Pakis Kabupaten Malang.

'Entertaining' a New College Athlete Unionization Structure

Between athletes still feeling short-changed despite name, image, and likeness (NIL) compensation and coaches and administrators feeling generally unhappy with the unregulated, “wild west” landscape of NIL, college sports is faced with two competing forces pushing college athletics in two distinctly different directions. There is an obvious solution to all of the strife in college sports: the legal recognition of college athletes as employees and the creation of a formally recognized college athlete labor union, allowing athletes to collectively bargain for a share of media rights revenues and other work conditions, while also allowing the National Collegiate Athletic Association (NCAA) to collectively bargain for more regulations and restrictions on NIL activity without facing antitrust scrutiny by virtue of the non-statutory labor exemption.
There are several unique challenges to organizing a labor union comprised of athletes, including the breadth and variety of their negotiating interests. However, there is a robust union that has been in operation since the 1930s that may provide a baseline framework: the Screen Actors Guild-American Federation of Television and Radio Artists (SAG-AFTRA). In this article, we explore potential frameworks for a college athlete union by using SAG-AFTRA and other major unions as templates. SAG-AFTRA’s unique national-local structure serves as a guide for how to create a robust and effective college athlete union that meets all sides’ interests in reforming college sports.

Using the model of cyclophosphamide (CP)-induced immunosuppression in C57BL/6 mice, the hepatotropic effects of a conjugate of betulonic acid with 9-(4-methylpiperazin-1-ylmethyl)-2-(1,2,3-triazolyl) oreozelone (BABC) have been studied. In the liver of treated animals the expression of genes for cytochromes (CYP 1A1, CYP 1A2, CYP 3A44, CYP 2B10, CYP 2C29, CYP 17A1), PPARA, and cytokines (TNF-α, IL-1β, IL-12α, IL-10) and the relative levels of NF-κB p65, GST-π, and NAT-1 proteins were determined. On day six after administration of the compound and CP to animals a significant (3.2-fold) increase in the expression of the CYP 2B10 as compared to the control group was observed. Treatment of mice with the compound and CP also caused a 2.4-fold increase in the mRNA level of the pro-inflammatory TNF-α gene as compared to the group of animals receiving CP. Administration of the studied compound to intact animals was accompanied by a 2.5-fold increase in the IL-1β expression and a 1.8-fold decrease in the IL-10 expression as compared to the control group. An increase in the expression of pro-inflammatory cytokine genes in the liver of animals treated with the compound was accompanied by an increase in the content of NF-κB p65 (by 1.6 times), as well as an increase in the relative amount of NAT-1 protein (by 2.7 times) as compared to control animals.

Pesticides represent a serious problem for agricultural workers due to their neurotoxic effects. The aim of this study was to evaluate the ability of pharmacological oxidative phosphorylation uncouplers to reduce the effect of the difenoconazole fungicide on mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) of various organs in mice. Injections of difenoconazole caused cognitive deficits in mice, and the protonophore 2,4-dinitrophenol (2,4-DNP) and Azur I (AzI), a demethylated metabolite of methylene blue (MB), prevented the deterioration of cognitive abilities in mice induced by difenoconazole. Difenoconazole increased the rate of reactive oxygen species (ROS) production, likely through inhibition of complex I of the mitochondrial respiratory chain. After intraperitoneal administration of difenoconazole lungs, testes and midbrain were most sensitive to the accumulation of mtDNA damage. In contrast, the cerebral cortex and hippocampus were not tolerant to the effects of difenoconazole. The protonophore 2,4-DNP reduced the rate of ROS formation and significantly reduced the amount of mtDNA damage caused by difenoconazole in the midbrain, and partially, in the lungs and testes. MB, an alternative electron carrier capable of bypassing inhibited complex I, had no effect on the effect of difenoconazole on mtDNA, while its metabolite AzI, a demethylated metabolite of MB, was able to protect the mtDNA of the midbrain and testes. Thus, mitochondria-targeted therapy is a promising approach to reduce pesticide toxicity for agricultural workers.
Siri Hustvedt’s "The Summer Without Men" and "The Blazing World"
Authors: Osuna Montilla Isabel María
Published: February 2024

This paper aims to analyse Siri Hustvedt’s The Summer Without Men (2011) and The Blazing World (2014) from the perspective of the female Künstlerroman or Künstlerinroman to show the convergences and divergences between Hustvedt’s contemporary artist heroines and twentieth-century ones. Through the methodological framework, I discuss Linda Huf’s study of the female artist novel and Evy Varsamopoulou’s subsequent revision of it, focusing on the protagonist’s interpersonal and social relationships. It could be concluded that Hustvedt’s portrayal of the artist heroine is still a result of living in a patriarchal system, but it opens the way for complex representations of female characters, establishing strong emotional bonds between women.
