TASAWUF SEBAGAI ETIKA PEMBEBASAN; MEMOSISIKAN ISLAM SEBAGAI AGAMA MORALITAS
Authors: Saprin Saprin
Published: July 2019

The purpose of this study is to understand the nature of Sufism as an ethics of liberation and how to position Islam as a moral teaching. The background of this study is the inequality due to spiritual poverty that has penetrated into various aspects of human life depicted in the decline and even a moral degradation implicating the crisis that result in the fragility of the joints of human life The methodology used in this research is qualitative descriptive approach. The data were collected through literature studies and libraries related to the concept of Sufism in Islam in relation to the formation of human morality. The results of this study show that Sufism is one's attempt to get closer to God as closely as possible. The beginning of the emergence of the Sufism teachings was started along with the Islamic religion itself since the apostolic event of Prophet Muhammad SAW. Before Muhammad was appointed an apostle, he has repeatedly performed Tahannuts and khalwat in the Hira Cave. When he offered  tasawwuf in modern life, was not an offer to abandon the practical life of the world, but how the 'mortal' and practical world life is intended as a means of achieving pleasure and devotion to the Divine. Thus, the mortal 'has the value of immortality, where the mortality chooses the dimension ending Based on the results of the study, authors concluded two things. First, Sufism is not a form of escapism or escape from the life of the world, but asceticism breaks away from earthly fetters. Second, the teaching of Islam which is the religion of morality serves as a protector that provides composure and peaceful life.

Published: July 2019

One thing that is certain in this world is accountability. The afterlife is a continuation of the end of life in the world. In this afterlife, man will be responsible for his actions while living in the world. This article aims to describe Ibn Rushd's eschatological construction. Ibn Rushd is a Muslim philosopher who tries to prove that between wisdom (philosophy) and sharia is not an interesting contradiction to be studied in more depth. In other words, he was the philosopher who intensely attempted this integration, the integration of reason and revelation. Ibn Rushd solved his eschatological problems by the way of philosophical thought and divination.

Performance Appraisal Strategies on Performance of Teachers in Public Secondary Schools in Kiambu County, Kenya
Authors: Mwangi Bernadette Wangui , Njuguna Reuben
Published: July 2019

This study was triggered by the Teachers Sercice Commission (TSC) coming up with teachers performance appraisal strategies to appraise teachers and administrators in its employment, but the program has not fully realized the objective of evaluating teachers performance and initiate professional development.  There has been a stiff resistance from teachers on the use of appraisal tool terming it as forced appraisal. The study, therefore, sought to establish whether there is a relationship between appraisal and reward/compensation, examine how setting of standards and targets influences teachers perfomance, determine how measuring and monitoring teachers work on regular basis affect their performance and find out the effect of quality of work on performance of teachers in public secondary schools in Kiambu County. The target population was 3,479 teachers in 277 public secondary schools in Kiambu County. The study was conducted in 22 secondary schools in 11 sub counties comprising TSC teachers and administrators with a population of 686.  58 teachers and 22 head teachers, totaling to 80 representing 12% were selected from the accessible population of 686 teachers using systematic random sampling. The study established that standards/targets, measuring and monitoring performance managing quality of work and reward/pay affects teacher performance positively and significantly. The study concludes that setting standards and target allows schools and the teaching staff to better measure their progress helping to keep them motivated and accountable. Measuring and monitoring teacher performance ensures that information is gathered so that judgments can be made and questions answered accordingly. Performance appraisal strategies are critical to satisfying the performance of teacher and retaining their future loyalty and teachers are satisfied with the extrinsic rewards provided from the organization like: pay, bonuses, allowances. The study recommends that for the management of schools to achieve goal alignment in the teaching staff, they must first clearly communicate their school’s strategic objectives across the entire school. The school should have a way of monitoring their teacher which must be developed in a systematic monitoring and evaluation of the class and the work of teachers. On managing the quality of work, the study recommends that schools match tasks to Skills, communicate effectively, keep goals clear & focused, give incentives, train and develop their teachers and the study recommends that the school management should take interest in the professional growth to increase the performance level of the teachers.

Authors: Wakhu Peter Omunyala , Bett Shadrack
Published: July 2019

The aim of this study was to investigate the effect of competitive strategies on the performance of Uber Online Taxi Firm in Nairobi, Kenya. The specific objectives of the study were: to examine how leadership, differentiation, and focus strategies influence the performance of Uber. The study was very significant to the top management of uber, the government, the partners/drivers and other researchers. The study was anchored on the following theories: Porter’s generic strategies model, resource-based view theory, and resource dependence theory. The study took a descriptive research design and the target population was composed of 130 operators; sampling size was the same as target population as a complete census was preferred. The study used a semi-structured questionnaire that was administered to each member of the population. Out of the 130 questionnaires administered only 91 questionnaires were filled by respondents. Both descriptive and inferential statistics were used for data analysis. Regression analysis was used to test the relationship between performance and the independent variables. Quantitative data collected was analyzed using descriptive statistics and Statistical Package for Social Sciences (SPSS) was used to analyze the quantitative data where descriptive statistics such as means, standard deviation, frequencies and percentages were used to describe the data. The variables used in the study included low cost leadership strategy, differentiation strategy and focus strategy which significantly influenced the organizational performance of Uber Online Taxi Firm. The study recommended that Uber should embrace cost leadership, differentiation and focus strategies in their operations since they will enable the firm attain competitive advantage over their rivals such as Taxify and Little Cab.
Muslim Travelers' Food Sensitivity, Travel, and Accommodation Choices

Published: July 2019

This study discusses the significance of religion in influencing Singaporean Muslim travelers' (SMT) food selection, motivation to travel, and their accommodation choices. It also expounds on the tolerance level of SMT on conventional accommodation, which are non-Shariah compliant by
nature. The study used qualitative data collection methods, and the results suggested that SMTs were mainly concerned about the availability of halal-related food in their destinations, they were flexible in adapting to the environment, and understood the concept of mix-gender facilities and
the necessity for hotels to sell alcoholic beverage. It was surprising to note that even if SMTs were affected by Islamophobia, they considered halal hotels unnecessary, and associated accommodation quality to food quality.
Cultural and Touristic Aspects of Gamalost, a Local Cheese from the Fjord of Norway
Authors: Soltani Arezoo , årethun Torbjørn
Published: July 2019

Based on a case study of local food in Vik Municipality in Western Norway this article explores the historical and economic impact of Gamalost, a type of Norwegian cheese. Both qualitative and quantitative methods are used in this study. Historical accounts show that Gamalost has undergone
a number of modifications that have contributed to the product having a complex status that combines both traditional and modern properties. Vik has the potential to attract tourists through the annual Gamalost Festival, and the nationwide brand TINE has broadened the market for Gamalost,
although most likely at the expense of local food production based on Gamalost served at local farms. The link between Gamalost and Vik, which might have triggered more tourists, has been neglected. It is explained how the product has the potential to sustain remote and fragile economies to
a greater extent than currently.
Sound Radiation from the Perforated End of a Lined Duct
Authors: Tiryakioglu Burhan
Published: July 2019

Radiation of sound wave through a lined duct with perforated end is analyzed rigorously. The problem considered is axisymmetric. By using the Fourier transform technique in conjunction with the Mode Matching method, the related boundary value problem is formulated as a Wiener-Hopf (W-H)
equation. The Mode-Matching technique allows us to express the field component defined in the waveguide region in terms of normal modes. The solution involves a set of infinitely many expansion coefficients satisfying an infinite system of linear algebraic equations. The numerical solution
of this system is obtained for different parameters of the problem such as the surface impedances, specific impedance of the perforated screen and their effects on the radiation phenomenon are shown graphically.
Design Optimisation of Acoustic Absorbers with Cross-Like Pores Via a Homogenisation Method
Authors: Gorbushin Nikolai , Nguyen Vu-Hieu , Naili Salah
Published: July 2019

Mechanical modelling and associated numerical methods are able to improve the design of absorbing materials which are otherwise difficult to accomplish through experimental studies only. In this paper, we provide an original procedure for obtaining high acoustic absorption of single
and multi-layered panels with predefined microstructure. The procedure uses the homogenisation technique for obtaining effective properties of an airsaturated material and solution to acoustic problems. We study a certain topology of the material and point out the effect of matrix material
stiffness on the results of the optimisation procedure. We demonstrate that for stiff and rigid frames of a single layer, the optimal design parameters do not differ much whereas for the soft frames, the same results may significantly change. Moreover, we show that the absorption properties
can be essentially improved by arrangements of different materials (soft, stiff and air) in sandwich panels. It is also possible to design a material which efficiently absorbs acoustic energy at low frequencies which is hard to achieve by means of conventional materials.

We present the Census of the Local Universe (CLU) narrowband survey to search for emission-line (Hα) galaxies. CLU-Hα has imaged ≈3π of the sky (26,470 deg2) with four narrowband filters that probe a distance out to 200 Mpc. We have obtained spectroscopic follow-up for galaxy candidates in 14 preliminary fields (101.6 deg2) to characterize the limits and completeness of the survey. In these preliminary fields, CLU can identify emission lines down to an Hα flux limit of 10−14 erg s−1 cm−2 at 90% completeness, and recovers 83% (67%) of the Hα flux from cataloged galaxies in our search volume at the Σ = 2.5 (Σ = 5) color excess levels. The contamination from galaxies with no emission lines is 61% (12%) for Σ = 2.5 (Σ = 5). Also, in the regions of overlap between our preliminary fields and previous emission-line surveys, we recover the majority of the galaxies found in previous surveys and identify an additional ≈300 galaxies. In total, we find 90 galaxies with no previous distance information, several of which are interesting objects: 7 blue compact dwarfs, 1 green pea, and a Seyfert galaxy; we also identify a known planetary nebula. These objects show that the CLU-Hα survey can be a discovery machine for objects in our own Galaxy and extreme galaxies out to intermediate redshifts. However, the majority of the CLU-Hα galaxies identified in this work show properties consistent with normal star-forming galaxies. CLU-Hα galaxies with new redshifts will be added to existing galaxy catalogs to focus the search for the electromagnetic counterpart to gravitational wave events.
What Sets the Magnetic Field Strength and Cycle Period in Solar-type Stars?

Published: July 2019

Two fundamental properties of stellar magnetic fields have been determined by observations for solar-like stars with different Rossby numbers (

), namely, the magnetic field strength and the magnetic cycle period. The field strength exhibits two regimes: (1) for fast rotation, it is independent of

, and (2) for slow rotation, it decays with

following a power law. For the magnetic cycle period, two regimes of activity, the active and inactive branches, have also been identified. For both of them, the longer the rotation period, the longer the activity cycle. Using global dynamo simulations of solar-like stars with Rossby numbers between ∼0.4 and ∼2, this paper explores the relevance of rotational shear layers in determining these observational properties. Our results, consistent with nonlinear

dynamos, show that the total magnetic field strength is independent of the rotation period. Yet at surface levels, the origin of the magnetic field is determined by

. While for

, it is generated in the convection zone, for

, strong toroidal fields are generated at the tachocline and rapidly emerge toward the surface. In agreement with the observations, the magnetic cycle period increases with the rotational period. However, a bifurcation is observed for

, separating a regime where oscillatory dynamos operate mainly in the convection zone from the regime where the tachocline has a predominant role. In the latter, the cycles are believed to result from the periodic energy exchange between the dynamo and the magneto-shear instabilities developing in the tachocline and the radiative interior.
The Origin of the Stellar Mass–Stellar Metallicity Relation in the Milky Way Satellites and Beyond
Authors: Xia Moran , Yu Qingjuan
Published: July 2019

Observations and semianalytical galaxy formation and evolution models (SAMs) have suggested the existence of a stellar mass–stellar metallicity relation (MZR), which is shown to be universal for different types of galaxies over a large range of stellar masses (M
* ∼ 103–1011

) and dark matter halo masses (M
halo ∼ 109–1015
h
−1

). In this work, we construct a chemical evolution model to investigate the origin of the MZR, including both the effects of gas inflows and outflows in galaxies. We solve the MZR from the chemical evolution model by assuming that the cold gas mass (M
cold) and the stellar feedback efficiency (β) follow some power-law scaling relationships with M
* during the growth of a galaxy, i.e.,

and

. We use the SAM to obtain these power-law scaling relations, which appear to be roughly universal over a large range of stellar masses for both satellites and central galaxies within a large range of halo masses. The range of MZRs produced by our models is in a narrow space, which provides support to the universality of the MZRs. The formation of the MZR is a result caused jointly by the cold gas fraction decreasing with increasing M
* and by the stellar feedback efficiency decreasing with increasing M
* in the galaxy growth, and the exponent in the MZR is around −α

βs or 1 − α
gs. The MZR represents an “average” evolutionary track for the stellar metallicity of a galaxy. The comparison of our model with some previous models for the origin of MZRs is also discussed.
A Gap in the Mass Distribution for Warm Neptune and Terrestrial Planets
Authors: Armstrong David J. , Meru Farzana , Bayliss Daniel , Kennedy Grant M. , Veras Dimitri
Published: July 2019

Structure in the planet distribution provides an insight into the processes that shape the formation and evolution of planets. The Kepler mission has led to an abundance of statistical discoveries in regards to planetary radius, but the number of observed planets with measured masses is much smaller. By incorporating results from recent mass determination programs, we have discovered a new gap emerging in the planet population for sub-Neptune-mass planets with orbital periods less than 20 days. The gap follows a slope of decreasing mass with increasing orbital period, has a width of a few M
⊕, and is potentially completely devoid of planets. Fitting Gaussian mixture models to the planet population in this region favors a bimodel distribution over a unimodel one with a reduction in Bayesian information criterion of 19.9, highlighting the gap significance. We discuss several processes that could generate such a feature in the planet distribution, including a pileup of planets above the gap region, tidal interactions with the host star, dynamical interactions with the disk, with other planets, or with accreting material during the formation process.
Application of Artificial Neural Networks (ANN) Coupled with Near-InfraRed(NIR) Spectroscopy for Detection of Adulteration in Honey
Authors: Longin Lucija , Jurinjak Tusek Ana , Valinger Davor , Benkovic Maja , Jurina Tamara , Gajdos Kljusuric Jasenka
Published: July 2019

Honey is a naturally sweet and viscous product for which the addition of any substance is prohibited by international regulation. Detection of adulteration in honey is a technical problem: adulteration of honey with invert sugar and syrup may not be reliably detected by direct sugar analysis because its constituents are identical to the major natural components of the honey. Therefore, it is important to develop a rapid and reliable analytical method to detect such additions. We used near-infrared spectroscopy (NIR) combined with principle component analysis (PCA) and artificial neural networks (ANN) modelling to discriminate between honey and corn syrup in adulterated honey. Fifteen honey samples from north-west Croatia (Krapina-Zagorje County) were intentionally supplemented with differing proportions of corn syrup ranging from 10-90%. We collected a total of 460 NIR spectra using the Control Development NIR128L-1.7 spectrophotometer (Control Development, South Bend, Indiana, USA) with their software Spec32 software anda HL-2000 halogen light source. For each of the prepared samples, we measured water content by refractometer (Brouwland, Belgium), conductivity byconductometer (SevenCompact, MettlerToledo, Switzerland), and colour using a PCE-CSM3 colorimeter (PCE Instruments, Germany).

Prior to ANN modelling, PCA was used to identify patterns and highlight similarities and differences in data of the individual set of the experiment. The goal of PCA is to extract important information from the data table and to express this information as a set of new orthogonal variables called principal components or factors (PCs or Fs). We conducted PCA of raw spectra using the Unscrambler® X 10.4 software (CAMO software, Norway). Data were divided into ANN model training, test, and validation datasets at a 70:15:15 ratio using the first five PCs. ANNs were calibrated using model training data, and evaluated using model test and model validation datasets for their ability to predict: i) the amount of added adultering substance in honey, ii) water content, iii) conductivity and iv) colour of the adulterated honey. Multiple layer perception (MLP) networks were developed in Statistica v.10.0 software (StatSoft, Tulsa, USA). Back error propagation algorithm available in Statistica v.10.0 was applied for the model training. Model performance was evaluated using R2 and root mean squared error (RMSE) values for model training, test, and validation datasets.

Results show that network MLP 5-8-6 with five neurons in the input layer, 8 neurons in the hidden layer and 6 neurons in the output layer predicts the analysed output variables with high precision (R2validation,concentration = 0.995, R2validation,water content = 0.993, R2validation,conductivity = 0.992, R2validation,L = 0.939, R2validation,a = 0.895, R2validation,b = 0.924).

Published: July 2019

GBIF France, the French node of the Global Biodiversity Information Facility, has been hosted by the National Museum of Natural History (MNHN) since 2006 and is actively involved in various national and international projects related to data mobilization.

The INPN (National Inventory of Natural Heritage) information facility, hosted since 2005 by the MNHN, lists the ecological, faunistic, floristic, geological, mineralogical and paleontological data of France and its overseas territories. This system has been recognized since 2012 as the national platform of the French Nature and Landscape Information System.

In January 2017, GBIF France and the INPN team were gathered in the Mixed Unit of Natural Heritage Services (UMS PatriNat), which provides expertise and knowledge management missions under the supervision of the French Agency for Biodiversity (AFB), the National Center for Scientific Research (CNRS) and the MNHN.

In order to support both systems and enhance biodiversity data quality, a flow of occurrences and taxonomic data has been established between GBIF and INPN. On July 2018, the latest delivery of French data coming from the INPN marked the one billionth occurrence to the GBIF network. Data connected to GBIF from French territories, will be included in INPN in 2019.

In this poster, we will explain the detailed process of data exchange between the two platforms, as well as the protocols, the standards and the tools used for data validation, data transformation, data dissemination and data update.

Camera traps have existed since the 1890s (Kucera and Barrett 2011), but they weren’t widely used until the introduction of commercial infrared-triggered cameras in the early 1990s (Meek et al. 2014). Since then, millions, perhaps billions of camera trap images have been collected for many reasons, biodiversity monitoring being one of the key applications. Unfortunately, although there are camera trap deployments all over the world, these operations occur in isolation, limiting the impact they could have on a global understanding of biodiversity health. Even within individual institutions, managing and analyzing multiple camera trap deployments in aggregate can be challenging. In fact, managing a single deployment of camera traps is non-trivial and important data are frequently cast aside as bycatch, left unanalyzed on decaying hard drives.

Wildlife Insights attempts to overcome these hurdles by providing camera trap data upload, management, and analysis services. It provides the world’s largest database of camera trap images by bringing together the camera trapping efforts of several the world’s largest conservation and research organizations, and it is open to future contributors. Artificial Intelligence-driven services sit at the heart of the platform. New camera trap data uploads are automatically analyzed to differentiate between images with people, non-human animals, and no animals. The images with non-human animals are further analyzed to detect specific species. The proposed labels are sent back to the submitter for review and then uploaded to the database. All uploaded images, unless specifically embargoed, are immediately available for analysis by all users of the system. A selection of tools are provided to support analyses of global biodiversity.

This presentation will describe Wildlife Insights and its AI implementation in detail, contextualized by case studies using analyses of the data currently stored on the platform. Challenges around integrating camera trap data within the platform and with other external services that work with the platform will also be discussed. The talk will end with some thoughts about future directions for the AI services, especially with regards to integration with related platforms.
Citing Evolving Data: An implementation on the NHM Data Portal
Authors: Humphries Josh
Published: July 2019

Since 2015, the Natural History Museum London has made its research and collections data available through its Data Portal (https://data.nhm.ac.uk). This website provides free and open access to important research datasets as well as digitised objects from the Museum's specimen collection. The Data Portal currently has over 4.2 million records from the specimen collection and a further 5.5 million records from other research datasets. Since 2015, more than 250 scientific publications have cited data from the Data Portal, either directly or through aggregators such as the Global Biodiversity Information Facility (GBIF), although there are many more citations than it is currently possible to track.

Users can download data from the Portal and are encouraged to cite the source, however, there is currently no way for users to cite subsets of the data returned through a query, nor a way to persistently identify the data subset they are citing. This is a common issue with scientific data put online, particularly when the cited data changes frequently, such as is the case with the Museum's specimen collection, which grows constantly as more of the collection is digitised.

This poster outlines a new approach that has been designed to meet the Research Data Alliance's (RDA) Working Group on Data Citation recommendations on citing evolving data (Rauber et al. 2015). This is achieved by implementing a fully versioned search framework, ensuring that all modifications to records are tracked and the version timestamp of each modification is combined with the data into the search index. When users search and download data from the Portal, Digital Object Identifiers (DOI) are minted for unique searches at exact versions allowing the dynamic, repeated retrieval of data at any version timestamp, without storing the results. Combining the versioning information into the search index also allows queries against historical data.

By persistently identifying query results in this fashion, researchers can cite data precisely and have confidence that although the data may change after they use it, users of their work will be able to access the data as it looked when they studied it originally. This should also encourage the systematic use of citations, making it easier to track both the usage and impact of research and collections datasets.
Finnish Biodiversity Information Facility - Improving the Taxonomic Coverage and Deepening the Information Content Through Collaboration
Authors: Lahti Kari , Skarp Liselott
Published: July 2019

The Finnish Biodiversity Information Facility FinBIF (LINK: species.fi), operational since late 2016, is one of the more recent examples of comprehensive, all-inclusive national biodiversity research infrastructures. FinBIF integrates a wide array of biodiversity information approaches under the same umbrella. These include species information Fig. 1 (e.g. descriptions, photos and administrative attributes); citizen science platforms enabling recording, managing and sharing of observation data; an e-learning environment for species identification; management and sharing of restricted data among authorities; building a national DNA barcode reference library and linking it to species occurrence data; community-driven species identification support; large-scale and multi-technology digitisation of natural history collections; and IUCN Red Listing to conduct a periodic national assesment of the status of the threatened species.

To improve the taxonomic coverage and the content of species information, FinBIF is starting a process to collaborate with the species information community at large, in order to collate already existing but not yet openly distributed information. This also means digitisation of information from analogue sources. In addition, the attempt is to join forces with Scandinavian counterparts, namely Artdatabanken (LINK: https://www.artdatabanken.se/) and Artsdatabanken (LINK: https://www.artsdatabanken.no/), for more efficient knowledge exchange within the countries sharing the same biogeographical region and thus similar species composition. The aim is also to reach politically high level agreement for deeper and wider commitment to collaborate in compiling, digitising and sharing relevant biodiversity information over the national borders.
Images of Baetica. The ambivalent hispanic reception of Les Aventures de Télémaque
Authors: Iñurritegui Rodríguez José María
Published: July 2019

In a crucial passage of Les Aventures de Télémaque, Fénelon identified Baetica with a form of sociability highly reminiscent of the Golden Age. Destined to leave a deep and controversial mark in the political and moral debates throughout the 18th century, that evocative image of the most elevated status of a material civilization removed from and impervious to luxury, the spirit of conquest and the logic of despotism, also mobilized the reflexive capacities characteristic of the Hispanic cultural order. In a steady and lengthy sequenced, analysed in the light of the corresponding epistemological uncertainties, of the morality of luxury, or of enquiry into origins, Fénelon’s Baetica was the object in Hispanic literature of very diverse and even contradictory readings. A diversity that illustrates the complexity and volatility of the relationship established at the time by that cultural order with the intellectual approaches disseminated and projected from the République des lettres.
The origins of casual culture: hooliganism and fashion in Great Britain
Authors: Rodríguez Blanco César
Published: July 2019

This dissertation attends to the study of football hooligans’ subcultures. In particular, it addresses a general synthesis of the beginnings of casual culture in Great Britain, within the context of the cultural transition process of the 1980s, and within a political, social and cultural context greatly influenced by the new Conservative government of Margaret Thatcher. It makes a chronological review of the stylistic evolution and the attitudes of the casuals, based on the concept one-upmanship, facing the different realities that happened in approximately a decade. From the birth of the punk movement in the late seventies to the emergence of rave and club cultures at the end of the following decade. It also includes the element of violence in football, both inside and outside the stadiums, through several events that exemplify the level of violence achieved in those years. Throughout the text it tries to record the relevance of the study of youth expressions and activities for a better understanding of wider historical and cultural processes.
Effects of microwave and conventional heating on the oxidative stability of corn oil enriched with different antioxidants
Authors: Baştürk A.
Published: July 2019

Four different corn oil samples including stripped (SCO, Control), refined (RCO), stripped corn oil enriched with rosemary extract (SCO+ROS) and ascorbyl palmitate (SCO+AP) were exposed to microwave (MWH) and conventional heating (CVH). For both heating methods, peroxide value (PV) and conjugated dienes increased at up to 230 °C, at which temperature hexanal (HEX) and conjugated trienes started to increase instead. Kinetic analysis revealed that PV and HEX formation were first ordered and the reaction rate among the samples was as follows: Control > SCO+ROS > RCO > SCO + AP for PV and SCO + ROS > RCO > SCO+AP > Control for HEX. The unsaturated fatty acid contents of CVH and MWH treated samples showed 9.5 and 12.9% reduction in SCO, while they were 2.9 and 7.7% in RCO, 3.6 and 6.1% in SCO + ROS, and finally 4.0 and 4.8% in SCO + AP. It was concluded that MWH led to a more severe deterioration and that the antioxidant activity of ROS was superior to that of AP for both heating methods.
Motions in the Body, Sensations in the Mind
Authors: Hamerton Katharine J.
Published: July 2019

This article, which seeks to connect philosophy, polite culture, and the Enlightenment, shows how Malebranche’s Cartesian science presented a full-frontal attack on the worldly notion of a good taste aligned with reason. It did this by arguing that the aesthetic tastes that people experience were the result of mechanically-transmitted sensations that, like all physical sensations, were inaccurate, erroneous and relativistic. The mechanics of this process is explored in detail to show how Malebranche was challenging honnête thinking. The article suggests that Malebranche’s demystifying approach was at once a hallmark of the Enlightenment, and that his views would ironically come to inform much Enlightenment thought about taste in ways he would have despised.

Over the last few decades there has been a rise in the prevalence of overweight and obesity in American youth. This chapter describes the rationale for the virtual world features of an obesity prevention project that engaged middle-school-aged girls in a 3-week summer science enrichment program. The Get in the GROOVE! program was designed to promote self-efficacy for health behavior change, increase health knowledge, facilitate healthy behaviors related to physical activity and nutrition, encourage a healthy body image, and promote the development and consolidation of a health self-identity. The virtual world, which was explored by the girls via realistic and healthy avatars, supplemented experiences and reinforced curriculum and concepts learned in the physical world component of the program. Findings suggest that a virtual world is a promising platform to promote a health self-identity and healthy lifestyle in children.

The focus is on how technology impacts the learner and educator identities, especially focusing on safety, privacy, and the cybersecurity of the technology-centric learning environments. Questions arise which will need to be resolved by designers of these systems. This chapter was completed at the end of the annual CES, Consumer Electronics Show, held January 2019 at Las Vegas. The justification for this approach was to assert the influences products displayed at this consumer show will have on future identities of the self among learners and educators. Concepts such as self-analysis technology are proposed and discussed, and challenges affecting learners and educators related to identity, authentication, authorization, and accountability are highlighted. It is concluded that solutions to these challenges are not a single entity but instead a combination of diverse continually evolving techniques.
