JUSTICE OF COMPENSATION FOR APPROPRIATION FOR THE PURPOSE OF OPENING ROADS IN JORDANIAN LAW (A COMPARATIVE STUDY)
Authors: Alsarayreh Mamdouh Mosleh Mamdouh
Published: April 2024

Objective: This study aims to define the concept of fair compensation, and how the Jordanian constitution gives the ordinary legislator the authority to determine the nature of fair compensation so that he may stipulate deducting part of the property free of charge, or did the constitutional legislator grant the ordinary legislator the authority to determine how to estimate the value of fair compensation as stated in Comparative legislation.
 
Theoretical Framework: The study employs a theoretical framework rooted in distributive justice theory, particularly drawing upon the perspectives of Rawls, Nozick, and Sen, the study evaluates the principles underlying fair compensation and its practical application in legal systems.
 
Design/Methodology/Approach: This study follows a comparative analytical descriptive approach in dealing with the position of comparative legislation on fair compensation in the first requirement, and we will devote the second requirement to the position of the Jordanian legislator on fair compensation stipulated in Jordanian legislation.
 
Result: The results of the study showed that appropriation for the public benefit has become recognized in constitutions and comparative legislations, as these legislations have defined the procedures for obtaining real estate to be appropriated in order to achieve the public benefit, and these legislations also included the principle of the owner's right to receive fair compensation that compensates the damage caused as a result of appropriation.
 
Research, Practical & Social Implications: The study concluded that the legislations have differed in how to estimate fair compensation, some of which stipulate that the compensation must be complete without taking into account the impact of ownership on the remaining parts of the property and neighboring properties, and some of which introduced the concept of a free quarter such as the Jordanian law of ownership in the acquisitions of roads. This study came to show the fairness of the free quarter deduction in the acquisition of roads in the Jordanian acquisition law compared to what is applied in the comparative legislation.
 
Originality/Value: The study provides original insights into the concept of fair compensation in Jordanian law, offering recommendations for legislative reforms to enhance distributive justice in expropriation cases.

Providing a Tephrochronological Framework for 10Myrs of Deposition in the Wairarapa
Authors:   , O'Brien Libby
Published: April 2024

The Wairarapa lies within a fore-arc section of the Hikurangi Margin, New Zealand. Since the Late Miocene the depositional environment here has developed from deep marine to fluvial and terrestrial settings as a result of the emergence of Aotearoa, New Zealand's (ANZ) landmass. Superimposed on this record of shallowing and emergence is a series of cyclothems which reflect sea level changes during glacial and interglacial periods. Active volcanism which continued from $\approx$22 Ma through to the present day resulted in the deposition of 40 observed tephra deposits from in the Wairarapa. These encompass activity from the Coromandel Volcanic Zone, Tauranga Volcanic Zone and Taup\={o} Volcanic zone since 22Ma and provide opportunity for region wide, temporal correlation of the Wairarapa's sedimentary record. In order to constrain sedimentation rates and depositional ages this study uses modern tephrochronological techniques such as EPMA and LA-ICP-MS point analysis to analyse the geochemical composition of glass, as well as U-Pb-Th radiometric dating of zircons to determine zircon crystallisation ages for 40 deposits from the Wairarapa region. Overall, this study provides new geochemical data for 25 of the 40 sampled deposits as well as five new absolute ages which provide the basis for a new tephrochronological framework for 10 Myrs of deposition the Southern Wairarapa.

Authors: Son Hey-Joon , Jin Joo-Ok , Lee Kon-Hee
Published: April 2024

Purpose: Headaches are common in childhood and adolescence and are often exacerbated by various triggers. The coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic has profoundly altered daily life worldwide. In this study, we investigated potential behavioral and emotional changes among pediatric patients with headaches, treated either before or after the onset of the COVID-19 pandemic. Methods: We examined 162 patients who visited our pediatric headache clinic between March 2018 and August 2021. The study included patients with primary headaches who completed a questionnaire assessing behavioral and psychiatric characteristics. We reviewed their clinical features, imaging studies, and scores on the Korean Child Behavior Checklist (K-CBCL), State Anxiety Inventory for Children (SAIC), Trait Anxiety Inventory for Children, and Children’s Depression Inventory (CDI). Statistical analysis was conducted using the Mann-Whitney U test, among other methods. Results: The 162 patients (mean age, 11.7±3.3 years) were classified based on whether they visited before (n=81) or after (n=81) the onset of the COVID-19 pandemic. The average CDI and SAIC scores were significantly higher in those who presented after pandemic onset. In this group, the odds ratio for an abnormal CDI score was 4.971. A weak positive correlation was found between the CDI score and the K-CBCL total problem score, with a correlation coefficient of 0.297. Conclusion: Pediatric patients visiting the headache clinic after the onset of the COVID-19 pandemic exhibited significantly higher levels of anxiety and depression compared to pre-pandemic visitors. Recognizing the considerable impact of the pandemic may help inform the management of pediatric headaches.

The Theme of Exile in V. S. Naipaul's Half a Life
Authors: İzzetgil Zamire
Published: April 2024

The concept of exile is extensively addressed in the field of literature as well as in different disciplines of the social sciences. In the field of literature and literary studies, exile is depicted through various genres of fiction and plays an important role in the works of writers from different historical, linguistic, cultural, and ethnic backgrounds. Indian writers who have merged into the mainstream of English literature have also given considerable focus to the theme of exile in their literary works. One of these writers, V. S. Naipaul, as an intellectual who has experienced exile, creatively explores themes of exile, displacement, alienation, identity, homelessness, and rootlessness. Through fictional characters such as Willie Somerset Chandran in Half a Life (2001), the author shows how individuals in the Third World try to survive in a complex, multicultural world. Therefore, the purpose of this study is to analyse V. S. Naipaul’s protagonist, Willie Chandran Somerset’s experience of exile in alien lands, taking into account the views and approaches of significant critics and scholars such as Edward Said, Abraham Maslow, Burke, and Stets. The study also aims to show how exile offers the protagonist the opportunity to explore the true state from a wider perspective.

Authors: Macit Hüseyin Bilal
Published: April 2024

With the widespread use of the Internet and the decrease in storage costs, many media have been transferred to digital media. This situation reduces the security and reliability of digital media. Media producers use watermarking methods for copyright protection. This study focuses on wavelet transform, which is one of the frequency conversion methods for watermarking. The wavelet transform for the watermarking process is usually applied on one of the four subbands obtained in a single level. In this study, the watermarking process is carried out in a total of 12 sub-bands, including the 1st, 2nd and 3rd levels. In addition, a performance evaluation metric for digital image watermarking is presented. The evaluation is applied using 10 different watermark strength factors on 46 different image resolutions. The Ultra High-definition Demoiréing Dataset is used for testing. The mathematical results obtained as a result of 22080 iterations are shown with tables and graphics, and the performance relations between the cover image resolution value and the sub-band selection are interpreted.

Published: April 2024

The skin is structurally a complex barrier organ that forms an original dynamic ecosystem colonized by a wide range of bacteria, fungi, viruses, and mites. The skin microbiome plays an important role in maintaining homeostasis and the state of local immunity and affects pathogenic microorganisms and skin barrier function through bacterial enzyme production. The most frequent and common infectious skin lesions are pyoderma, atopic dermatitis, psoriasis, hidradenitis suppurativa, acne vulgaris, rosacea, seborrheic dermatitis, various mycoses, as well as bacterial and fungal folliculitis. A detailed study of the impact of homeostatic balance on the health of the skin plays an important role in the diagnosis and treatment of skin diseases. Further investigations and deciphering bacteria, fungi, and viruses colonizing the skin will contribute to more effective diagnosis and identification of associations between the microbiota and the occurrence of various diseases, as well as to the development of more effective methods for their treatment, which is of great importance in clinical practice.

Published: April 2024

The lymphatic system is an integral part of the microcirculatory bed, which structurally and functionally complements the venous bed. It ensures constancy in the internal environment of the human body and performs transport, barrier, lymphopoietic, and immune functions, playing an exceptional role in the metabolism and cleansing of the body’s cells and tissues from metabolic products. The researchers assume that the meningeal lymphatic vessels (MLVs) may be involved in the process of cleansing the brain from metabolic products. Today, the problem of proving the existence of MLVs is a key one in understanding the anatomy and physiology of processes in the brain as a whole. Medical imaging techniques make it possible to prove the presence of MLVs. The paper analyzes the methods that are currently more frequently used to determine MLVs. Experimental medical imaging techniques allow us to conduct researches, by confirming or ruling out the scientific theories put forward. These methods are further evidence-based medicine.

Without the Lord: Eliza Suggs, Religion, and the Good Disabled Subject
Authors: Walker-Cornetta Andrew
Published: April 2024

Abstract: This article explores how religion appears and disappears within the work of disability history. It focuses on representations of Eliza Suggs, an early-twentieth-century African American preacher and author, and argues that scholarly preference for a particular kind of subject—one often defined in terms of identity and oppositional agency—obscures accounts of the past. The article returns to Suggs’s 1906 memoir Shadow and Sunshine as an incitement to think more carefully about how practices of devotion have shaped experiences of embodied difference and how they might inform and unsettle scholars’ engagements with disabled persons in the past. Resumen: Este artículo explora cómo la religión aparece y desaparece dentro del trabajo de la historia de la discapacidad. Se centra en las representaciones de Eliza Suggs, una predicadora y autora afroamericana de principios del siglo XX, y sostiene que la preferencia académica por un tipo particular de tema (a menudo definido en términos de identidad y agencia de oposición) oscurece los relatos del pasado. El artículo regresa a las memorias de Suggs, Shadow and Sunshine , de 1906, como una incitación a pensar más detenidamente sobre cómo las prácticas de devoción han dado forma a las experiencias de diferencia encarnada y cómo podrían informar y perturbar los compromisos de los académicos con las personas discapacitadas en el pasado.

The Postcolonial Jamaican Outlaw Hero in Perry Henzell's The Harder They Come
Authors: Heade William A.
Published: April 2024

Abstract: Perry Henzell's The Harder They Come (1972, Jamaica) shows the harsh realities of Jamaica, an island that, since colonization, has been a compartmentalized, divided world. This article looks at how Henzell represents postcolonial Jamaica as a small place where there are two distinct social classes inhabiting the same island in the sun. After a brief history of cinema, both filmed and shown, in Jamaica, this article uses The Harder They Come to show that postcolonial Jamaica is just colonial Jamaica going by a new name. It also looks at Ivan Martin as an outlaw hero who belongs in the pantheon of other Jamaican outlaw heroes and freedom fighters such as Queen Nanny, Apongo and Tacky, Sam Sharpe, and Paul Bogle. The article further shows that, as an outlaw hero, Ivan becomes a living idea: he becomes something that, even after the last reel, cannot be killed.
FESPACO 2023 / 2: Women in African Film
Authors: Barlet Olivier
Published: April 2024

Abstract: At FESPACO 2023 there were many films made by women or about women. They continue to raise the alarm about the status of women, and emphasize the determination of cunning women, even though films are still often made by men. However, the scenario of courageous figures with emblematic performances is increasingly replaced by a reminder of the relationships of domination and of violence against women, leading to the necessary legal changes. It's when the solution is not in the law that the ambiguities begin.
The Jazz Diaspora: Challenging Perspectives for 21st-Century Jazz Education Methodologies
Authors: Petty Simon
Published: April 2024

Abstract: Until the late 20th century, global narratives of jazz were limited. However, more recently, as the field of New Jazz Studies has gained a strong foothold in academia, the need for a more critical understanding of diasporic jazz studies within the academy is now timely. This study examines the jazz diaspora and the growth of New Jazz Studies. A literature synopsis of jazz diaspora and New Jazz Studies scholarship serves as a reference for further investigation and practical application within jazz education settings that are discussed in the final sections of the article. As an example of the jazz diaspora, Australian jazz musician Graeme Bell is presented as an instructive case study for his contribution to establishing the Australian jazz style. Accordingly, the study of Bell is used as an example for suggesting a rethinking of jazz education through the lens of the jazz diaspora.

Authors: Celi Diego
Published: April 2024

Abstract: This article discusses the evolution of jazz guitar fingerings through three different approaches to navigating chord changes: vertical, horizontal, and diagonal. It explains the early limitations of vertical fingerings and how it was improved with the advent of the horizontal approach, evidenced in the jazz world by Pat Metheny in the 1970s. It also looks at how Kurt Rosenwinkel introduced diagonal fingerings to the broader jazz audience in the late 1990s. This article explains these three fingering styles and provides examples and a pedagogical guide for their study.

Abstract: This article explores the Qur’ān-only movement, which advocates for the exclusive interpretation of Islam based on the Qur’ān without reference to the Prophetic Hadith. This movement emerged in the nineteenth century and represents a departure from traditional Islamic scholarship. To shed light on the complex intersection between religious tradition and modernity, this essay discusses the influence of modernity and Westernization on the development of Qur’ānist thought. It then provides a succinct overview of two primary contentions maintained by Muslim scholars who oppose the Qur’ānist movement. The first argument concerns the authority of ḥadīth, while the second concerns their authenticity and historical reliability. With regard to the former, traditional Muslim scholars underscore the significance of the Prophet’s life for deriving Islamic belief and practice from the Qur’ān, knowledge which can only be acquired from the Hadith. The second argument examined here involves the ways in which Islamic scholars defend the authenticity of the Prophetic Hadith with probabilistic reasoning, suggesting that rejecting the Hadith solely based on the absence of absolute certainty is not reasonable or consistent with the broader Islamic intellectual tradition. They argue that accepting something that is probable but not certain is common in many fields of study, including ḥadīth scholarship. In the science of ḥadīth ( ‘ilm al-ḥadīth ), scholars have developed what they consider to be sophisticated methods to evaluate the authenticity of ḥadīth reports based on various degrees of probability. Therefore, they advocate for an approach that acknowledges the role of probability in ḥadīth scholarship while upholding the rigorous standards of authenticity and reliability that have been developed over centuries of Islamic scholarship.

Corruption is a pervasive issue in developing economies, undermining economic growth, social development and governance. Utilitarianism, a moral theory that emphasizes the greatest good for the greatest number, offers a framework for addressing corruption by focusing on the consequences of actions and rule based issues. This article explores the efficacy of utilitarianism in combating corruption in developing economies. By analysing the ethical implications of utilitarian principles in the context of corruption, policymakers and stakeholders can develop more effective strategies to promote transparency, accountability and integrity in governance. There are rule-based utilitarianism and act-based utilitarianism which can be used in dealing with corruption.

The regulation and improvement of the performance of internal combustion engines is a continual primary focus of research and development activities conducted within the automobile industry and other relevant sectors. To succeed in reaching this objective, it is necessary to have an accurate and complete model of these engines. However, due to internal combustion engines' complex and nonlinear nature, accurately replicating their behavior may be challenging and time-consuming. Neural networks are a potentially useful strategy for simulating these engines successfully since they offer a solution that strikes a healthy balance between speed and precision. This research investigates the process of building a model of an internal combustion engine by using not one but two separate kinds of neural networks: multilayer perceptrons and radial basis functions. These neural networks aim to simulate and make predictions about the temperature of the engine's exhaust gas. They are especially useful for modeling nonlinear systems because of their incredible convergence speed and excellent accuracy levels.

Access to healthcare is a fundamental right for every individual, and it is the responsibility of governments to ensure the provision of quality healthcare services and infrastructure to their citizens. Over the past few decades, both governments and the healthcare industry have been grappling with the challenge of minimizing the adverse effects on public health caused by counterfeit medicines. According to the World Health Organization, approximately four out of ten medicines in developing and impoverished countries are either fake or potentially adulterated, leading to significant economic losses and reducing funds allocated for research and development (R&D) by organizations. Preventing counterfeit medicines from entering the supply chain poses a significant challenge for governments and regulatory authorities. Consequently, there is a concerted effort to establish stringent guidelines aimed at thwarting criminals and counterfeiters from infiltrating markets with fake medications. The healthcare industry recognizes the necessity for strict regulations and secure technologies to ensure the provision of safe and authentic drugs to patients. In the United States, the FDA has outlined a ten-year roadmap to implement drug traceability measures. Additionally, the Healthcare Distribution Alliance (HDA) has mandated the inclusion of multiple barcodes and human-readable data in product packaging hierarchy. Furthermore, the FDA is actively engaged in a pilot project with leading pharmaceutical manufacturers and wholesalers to explore the utilization of blockchain technology within an interoperable digital network for securing the transfer of digital traceability data among authorized trading partners.

In today's complex organizational landscape, understanding the dynamics of effective leadership is crucial for long-term success. A key area of inquiry in this realm involves exploring how personality traits shape leadership behavior and outcomes. One prominent set of traits garnering attention is the Dark Triad, comprising narcissism, Machiavellianism, and psychopathy, characterized by manipulative tendencies, lack of empathy, and self-interest. This paper synthesizes existing research on the Dark Triad, highlighting its manifestations, prevalence, and implications for leadership effectiveness. It also examines the role of gender in shaping these relationships, drawing on studies exploring gender differences in Dark Triad traits and their impact on leadership outcomes. Furthermore, the paper delves into specific traits within the Dark Triad, such as narcissism, Machiavellianism, and psychopathy, discussing their historical context, behavioral manifestations, and organizational implications. This study aims to explore how dark triad personality intersect with leadership effectiveness among 200 employees aged 20-50 residing in, India. Short Dark Triad Personality Test (SD3) by Jones & Paulhus (2013) and The Dhar and Pethe Leadership Effectiveness Scale (DLES) by Dhar and Pethe were employed as tools in the study. The analysis of the data was done using IBM SPSS. The findings offer insights into the real-world dynamics of dark triad traits and leadership effectiveness in contemporary urban workplaces. The study found that the Dark Triad, including psychopathy, narcissism, and Machiavellianism, doesn't impact a leader's leadership effectiveness in the private sector. It also found no correlation between gender and leadership efficacy. However, further research is needed to explore additional variables and validate these findings in diverse professional environments.

Herbal gel is a solid, jelly-like substance that can have properties ranging from soft and weak to hard and tough preparation. It is used topically for a variety of purposes, such as protectants, antiseptics, and antimicrobials. Herbal formulations means a dosage form consisting of one or more herbs or processed herbs in specified quantities to provide specific nutritional, cosmetic benefits meant for use to diagnose, treat, mitigate diseases of human beings or animals, alter the structure or physiology of human beings or animals. The aim of herbal treatment is usually to produce persisting improvements in well-being. Practitioners often talk in terms of trying to treat the “underlying cause” of disease and may prescribe herbs aimed at correcting patterns of dysfunction rather than targeting the presenting symptoms. Gel-based products absorb into the skin easily, leave little to no residue on the skin, and prevent greasiness.
