The Role of Omani Mass Media in Political Socialization Exploratory Study
Authors: Al Rawas Anwar Mohmad
Published: August 2017

The study aims to explore the perspectives of Omani viewers on the role of Omani mass media in the political socialization process. The study uses a questionnaire with a sample of 300 respondents, divided into six categories: academics, members of the Council of Oman, media specialists, administrators in the public and private sectors, political and military leaders, and university students. The results of this exploratory study show that respondents generally rate mass media as the first institution of political socialization. The reason for this result may be attributed to the ability of mass media to influence and shape political views, due to their wide coverage and diversity of content. The results also indicate that forming intellectual and political perspectives represents the primary role of institutions concerned with political socialization. With respect to the various manifestations of political socialization practices, the results show that the elections are the main embodiment of such political socialization practices. This can perhaps be attributed to the citizens’ interest in the political process and their active participation in the elections. The results also show some differences in the views of the respondents regarding the role of the Omani mass media in political socialization.
Conversational Maxims of Cooperation in Jordanian Newspapers Socio-Political Interviews
Authors: Obiedat Nawaf
Published: August 2017

This paper investigates the status of Grice’s (1975) conversational maxims of cooperation in Jordanian socio-political newspapers interviews. It also discusses the fundamental norms and conventions that shape conduct in these kinds of interviews and recurrent practices through which journalists balance competing professional demands for both objective and an adversarial treatment of public figures in the present case two former Jordanian Prime Ministers (PMs). The paper also explores how, in the face of aggressive questioning, the PMs struggle to stay “on message”, so to speak, and pursue their own agenda. Through a pragma-linguistic analysis of these interviews, the study reveals that the reasons behind the MPs’ flouting of Grice’s conversational maxims, and, consequently, the ensuing conversational implicatures, are products of one of the following:1. Absolute loyalty2. Lack of democratic freedom of expression.The paper also reveals that Grice’s principle of conversation and its accompanying maxims have a crosscultural validity when tested against a language like Arabic. In fact, when we look at these conversational maxims from an Arab-Islamic moral and socio-political perspective (and whether the maxims are Grice’s or those of Arab-Islamic scholars) we find that they are, almost identical and constitute the corner stone of Arab society’s moral, socio-cultural, and religious values. Thus, it makes a lot of difference for both audience and readership if interviewed public figures ‘observe’ these conversational maxims.

Authors: ElMahi Ali Tigani
Published: August 2017

The region of Dhofar in southern Oman is rich in rock art scenes that widely portray the camel. This paper examines these rock art scenes and looks into their cultural signification. It examines the camel scenes to highlight this animal’s characteristics and its role in the economy, trade and transport. Furthermore, the paper draws from an ongoing ethnoarchaeological study to establish certain analogies in order to explain the significance of these scenes and their denotation. The study regards the scenes as a representation of a wide spread rock art camel culture that parallels traditional camel culture in Dhofar.

The latent soul illusion in the causative object ( الْمَفْعول لَِجْلِه ) section the controllers in purposeful causative object coming as a treatment infinitive ( مَصْدَر عِلاجِيّ ) in Arabic
Authors: Okasha Omar Yousef
Published: August 2017

The current study debates some of the traditional granted issues among Arab grammar scholars in Al-ManSubat section ( باب†الْمَنْصوبات†) in general, and in the Causative Object ( الْمَفْعول†لَِجْلِه†) in particular. As such, the current study is based on a preliminary exploration for what is to be truly called ( الْمَفْعولِ†لَِجْلِه†). The study then turns to negate the attribute of the Objectivity ( الْمَفْعولِيَّة†) on the Causative Object ( الْمَفْعول†لَِجْلِه†) or other than the Direct Object ( المفعول†به†). Then, the study examines, using the available evidences, the accuracy of the grammarians claims of the psychological condition that have been stipulated by them for الْمَفْعول†لَِجْلِه†. In doing so, the study presents some opinions of the early and contemporary grammarians in this matter. The study clarifies that the Causal Causative Object ( الْمَفْعول†لَِجْلِه†السَّبَبِيّ†) is the only type that the psychological condition applies to. As for the Purposeful Causative Object ( الْمَفْعولِ†لَِجْلِه†الْغَرَضِيّ†), it must be a Treatment Infinitive not a psychological one.
An analysis of lexicon in Omani English language teaching: challenges from teaching and learning perspectives
Authors: Al-Mahrooqi Rahma , Al-Maamari Faisal , Denman Christopher
Published: August 2017

Textbooks are indispensable in most formal education settings. However, many teachers believe weaknesses in textbooks can result in ineffective learning and teaching. This research uses a corpus-based approach to identify issues related to vocabulary with a particular focus on English textbooks in use in Omani schools. WordSmith Tools and RANGE concordance software are used to analyze these textbooks. Findings indicate that there are irregularities in vocabulary loading and that the types, tokens, density and consistency ratio show inconsistencies. Moreover, in terms of the coverage of GSL and AWL word lists, the textbooks fall short of the ideal range of 95% to 98% coverage suggested by Nation (1990, 2001). In fact, vocabulary from large percentages of the texts are not found in any of the essential word lists. The paper suggests recommendations for consistent analysis and guidance in analyzing textbooks in order to improve their quality in terms of vocabulary introduction and loading.
Prosodic text analysis theory
Authors: Sakr Mohammed Gamal
Published: August 2017

Within the field of poetic text linguistics, the theories of both text linguistics and prosodic linguistics have failed to reveal the nature of the creation of the poetic text and the way it is received by people. This necessitates adopting a new theoretical framework that combines the two approaches by focusing on nine norms: domain rules, length and separation rules, paragraph and sentence rules, phrases and words rules, and syllable and sound rules. These rules should be used by anyone who compares between different poetic texts on the one hand, and between poetic and non-poetic texts on the other.
Principles of arabic noun gender: An overview of learning difficulties
Authors: Alaqtash Abdulhamid , Talafha Amjad
Published: August 2017

Arab linguists have distinguished between the animate and inanimate gender of nouns, where the former was assigned a male or female natural gender and the later a grammatical gender, and so the distinction between the real natural gender and the figurative grammatical gender has spread widely in Arabic grammar. Educational studies and linguistic research carried out by educationalists and linguists have indicated the prevalence of two difficulties in teaching and learning the issue of grammatical gender. The first is related to distinguishing between masculine and feminine within the same sex; the other is related to the multiplicities in the structural forms of gender whether natural or grammatical This research focuses on the first difficulty as this difficulty reflects directly on the second difficulty whether right or wrong. This can be observed in the intensive grammatical agreement in topics such as verb – subject, subject - predicate, modified - modifier, and number agreement.
Text Grammar in Saad Maslouh’s Writing
Authors: Hamed Abdel Salam El-Sayed
Published: August 2017

The early studies on text grammar appeared in the late 1980s. Maslouh was among the few founders of this field in Arabic studies. However, his contribution has not been fully acknowledged in spite of its originality, richness, and importance. The current study aims at bridging this gap by shedding lights on Maslouh’s contribution to text grammar. It will study the major aspects of his three researches on the area. The study will describe his work and compare his theoretical backgrounds to his analysis and introduce a final discussion and results. The importance of this work emerges from the integrity of Maslouh’s writings and the vividness of his perspectives as well as the comprehensiveness of his analysis.

Engineering Programs and Social Sciences at Sultan Qaboos University: Presentation of Experience and Trends
Authors: Yousef Ahmed , Bordosen Haj
Published: August 2017

The engineering programs at Sultan Qaboos University are designed to include a number of courses related to humanities and social sciences. This will enrich the interdisciplinarity required for engineering programs from both theoretical and practical aspects. This trend has become more significant after ABET accreditation of all College of Engineering programs in the last few years. However, like any new deployment of such interdisciplinarity, few challenges were encountered and a number of solutions successfully adopted. This fact is natural for engineering disciplines that have strong ties with rapidly evolving industrial environments. The currently growing interaction between engineering and social sciences will certainly result in the emergence of new fields in educational programs and scientific research that will strongly serve the modern society. Within this spirit, the paper will present and discuss a number of interdisciplinary models that are part of SQU engineering programs, emerging in a similar trend as in most engineering programs in renowned universities. For instance, the final year project, which is a key element of the engineering curriculum, commonly linked to industry, requires constraints related to social, ethical, economical, health, environmental and political impacts on the final project outcome. The curricula of college of engineering contain six compulsory credits and six other elective credits related to humanities and social sciences that are selected from a list of more than 67 courses.

Diarrhea is a waterborne disease due to consumption of contaminated food/water. People in urban slum area have highest risk to get diarrhea because of poor hygiene and sanitation as well as limited access to uncontaminated water. This study aimed to identify conta­mination in watersources by Entamoeba Sp and helmint eggs (Anchylostoma duodenale, Ascaris lumbricoides, Trichuris trichuria) in one of urban slum area in Bandung municipality. Samples were taken from 123 watersources (74 tap water, 21 borehole, 22 dugwell and 6 spring water) which was randomly selected in 10 RW along the Cikapundung river basin in Tamansari subdistrict during period of July-September 2015. Water samples were examined by PCR to detect Entamoeba Sp and microscopic identification for helminth eggs. 90 out of 123 samples were positive for Entamoeba Sp (59 tap water, 16 dugwell, 11 borehole and 4 spring water). Helminth egg of Ascaris lumbricoides was detected from unimproved common dugwell which had very high risk of contamination. Appropriate of water treatment prior to consumption is vastly important. Physical improvement to construct improved dugwell should be done to prevent contamination from helminth eggs in watersources.

Purpose: The purpose of this study was to evaluate the association between ascending aortic diameter (AAD) as measured with low-dose chest computed tomography (LDCT) and hypertension in Korean men.

Methods: Korean men (n=1,050) who were screened for lung cancer using LDCT imaging at a health promotion center in Seoul, Korea between January 1 and December 31were recruited for the study. AAD is the longest length of ascending aorta measured from approximately 15 mm above left main coronary ostium to the mid-slice level of the right pulmonary artery.

Results: AAD were divided into quartiles, and the degree of hypertension was determined based on the quartiles of the AAD using logistic regression. Odds ratios (OR) for the proportion of hypertension in Q2 (1.70, 95% CI: 1.11-2.59), Q3 (2.72, 95% CI: 1.81-4.09) and Q4 (3.94, 95% CI: 2.63-5.89) were significantly greater than that of Q1 (P for trend < 0.001). Even after controlling for confounding covariates of age, BMI, total cholesterol, HDL-cholesterol, fasting glucose, GGT, ALT, eGFR, smoking status and alcohol intake, there was significant correlation.

Conclusion: AAD was significantly associated with the degree of hypertension.
Evaluating energy consumption in terms of climatic factors: A case study of Karakol residential apartments, Famagusta, North Cyprus

Published: August 2017

Throughout the past few decades, research has demonstrated that climatic factors are some of the most important issues to be considered in respect of energy consumption in buildings. Climatic factors, therefore, directly influence the economic sector. In order to study the impact of climatic factors in Karakol residential buildings in terms of energy consumption, an evaluation of the studies (literature survey) effected in relevant climates, and the analysis of the existing buildings according to these studies is essential. This represents the aim of this research and the other is to present design strategies for minimizing the negative impact of climatic factors on energy demand in these buildings. To approach the research objectives, the climate of the region was initially investigated. In an attempt to evaluate some of the current housing in the Karakol district of Famagusta in terms of the climatic factors, three types of residential apartments were identified and evaluated through observation, interview, and also by the distribution and complication of qualitative and statistical questionnaires to and by the occupants of the apartments. In this paper, basic climatic problems, as a result of which lead to increased energy consumption in residential apartments in respect of heating and cooling were identified and reported.

O presente relato de experiência objetiva descrever a vivência do Estágio Obrigatório realizado durante o quarto ano letivo do curso de Psicologia da Universidade Paranaense (UNIPAR). O Centro de Referência de Assistência Social (CRAS), na cidade de Altônia-PR, foi o primeiro aparelho articulado da rede e o disparador para que os outros aparelhos e políticas públicas fossem conectadas na realização do estágio. Neste trabalho tivemos a intenção de problematizar as vivências intergeracionais, entendidas enquanto necessidade no contexto de transformações históricas, sociais e culturais aceleradas, para possibilitar a reflexão sobre a constituição da convivência e dos laços intergeracionais e o modo como eles atravessam constantemente o cotidiano, através de famílias chefiadas por idosos, convivência entre avós e netos, e outras situações que colocam crianças, adolescentes e idosos frente a frente diariamente, não olvida-se que as diferenças geracionais estão na base do processo de transmissão sociocultural.

Predicting the Mechanical Properties of Zeolite Frameworks by Machine Learning
Authors: Evans Jack D. , Coudert François-Xavier
Published: August 2017

We show here that machine learning is a powerful new tool for predicting the elastic response of zeolites. We built our machine learning approach relying on geometric features only, which are related to local geometry, structure and porosity of a zeolite, to predict bulk and shear moduli of zeolites with an accuracy exceeding that of force field approaches. The development of this model has illustrated clear correlations between characteristic features of a zeolite and elastic moduli providing exceptional insight into the mechanics of zeolitic frameworks. Finally, we employ this methodology to predict the elastic response of 590 448 hypothetical zeolites, and the results of this massive database provide clear evidence to stability trends in porous materials.
THE AUTHORITY OF HUMAN RIGHTS
Authors: Fox-Decent Evan
Published: August 2017

Original and magisterial, Patrick Macklem’s The Sovereignty of Human Rights departs radically from the moral and political conceptions of international human rights law (IHRL) that dominate the literature. Rather than grounding human rights on features of our shared humanity (the moral, orthodox conception) or on their role in global politics (the political conception), Macklem claims that the point and purpose of IHRL is to mitigate the adverse effects produced by the structure and operation of international law itself and, in particular, the adverse effects of its distribution of sovereignty to some entities – states – and not others. In this article, I suggest that Macklem’s mitigation theory succeeds admirably in explaining various international human rights that moral and political theories are hard-pressed to explain, such as collective rights and labour rights. The great virtue of his theory is that it recognizes the potent abuses international law’s distribution of sovereignty makes possible and then calls on IHRL to serve a remedial and legitimating function from within international law itself. Macklem, however, subscribes to a positivist legal theory that is closer to John Austin’s command theory than it is to HLA Hart’s or Joseph Raz’s positivism. As a consequence, Macklem struggles to account for the authority of IHRL. I suggest a friendly amendment that would let Macklem’s theory account for IHRL’s authority. The way forward is through the development of a relational conception of IHRL. This conception trades on a criterion of legitimacy according to which IHRL’s authority is constituted by its capacity to empower legal institutions to speak in the name of, or on behalf of, whomever is subject to them.
IS THE PRINCIPAL FUNCTION OF INTERNATIONAL HUMAN RIGHTS LAW TO ADDRESS THE PATHOLOGIES OF INTERNATIONAL LAW? A COMMENT ON PATRICK MACKLEM’S THE SOVEREIGNTY OF HUMAN RIGHTS
Authors: McCrudden Christopher
Published: August 2017

I aim to provide a critique of Patrick Macklem’s thesis in The Sovereignty of Human Rights that the function of human rights in international law should be seen ‘in terms of their capacity to monitor the structure and operation of the international legal order … requir[ing] the international legal order to attend to pathologies of its own making.’ I suggest an alternative account that seems to me to be more consistent with much of the practice that he describes, which I rearrange to provide a more convincing narrative. The function of human rights in international law does have the function that Macklem attributes to it, among others, but to claim that this is the function of international human rights law is to underestimate the complexity of human rights as well as their true significance (at least in my view). An analysis of international human rights law must take this complexity into account if a coherent and convincing explanation of the normativity of international human rights law is to stand any chance of being identified.
POSITIVISM AND PRACTICE BEYOND SOVEREIGNTY
Authors: Macklem Patrick
Published: August 2017

This Reply engages with three topics raised in the essays in this special issue on The Sovereignty of Human Rights. The first relates to the book’s enlistment of international legal positivism as a defining feature of what constitutes a human right in international law. The second is the role that practice plays in the account that it offers of the normative mission of human rights in international law – namely, that human rights act as legal instruments that mitigate some of the pathologies associated with how international law organizes global politics into an international legal order. The third inquires into the role that human rights play beyond sovereignty – specifically, in relation to non-state actors such as multinational corporations and international economic institutions.

Published: August 2017

Myasthenia gravis (MG) is an autoimmune disease of the neuromuscular junction, characterized by fatigable weakness of the extraocular, bulbar, and limb musculature; prevalence is estimated at 14 to 32 per 100,000 in North America. Chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL) is the most common type of leukemia in adults, resulting from clonal expansion of B-cells in blood, marrow, and secondary lymphoid tissues. The simultaneous presentation of MG and CLL is exceedingly rare. This article presents the case of 71-year-old man diagnosed simultaneously with MG and CLL. His MG was severe and refractory to treatment; therefore, a strategy of treating his coexisting CLL with obinutuzumab and chlorambucil was pursued. Following 6 cycles of obinutuzumab and chlorambucil, his CLL is in remission and his MG is almost entirely undetectable. This is the first case report describing the use of obinutuzumab, a novel anti-CD20 monoclonal antibody, in a patient with concurrent MG and CLL.
