Presencia y rol de la mujer en el periodismo de videojuegos: un análisis de las redacciones y la crítica cultural de los medios especializados españoles
Authors: García-Borrego Manuel , Montes-Rodríguez Inmaculada , Ruiz-Aguiar Alberto
Published: July 2022

Introducción: El periodismo cultural destaca por su función prescriptiva, que marca la agenda al determinar cuáles son los productos que merecen recibir la atención del público. Dentro de esta área informativa se encuentran los videojuegos, una industria tradicionalmente criticada por sus marcadas desigualdades de género. Este artículo se propone describir la presencia y el papel de la mujer en los principales medios especializados españoles. Metodología: Se estudiaron la estructura redaccional de los portales 3DJuegos, AnaitGames, AreaJugones, Eurogamer, IGN, HobbyConsolas, Meristation, Nintenderos y Vandal, así como todos los análisis de videojuegos publicados entre 1997 y 2022 (n=34.529). Resultados: Las mujeres apenas representan el 18,6% de las plantillas de las grandes revistas del sector, y su vinculación a estas se produce sobre todo por medio de la figura del colaborador externo. Su presencia en los puestos de mando es inexistente en siete de las nueve webs escogidas. Además, en los últimos 25 años apenas han firmado un 3,6% de todos los análisis publicados, si bien la cifra ha vivido un tímido pero constante crecimiento en los últimos tiempos impulsada por los cambios acometidos en AnaitGames, Eurogamer y Meristation. Principalmente suelen escribir sobre videojuegos musicales o aptos para todos los públicos; los juegos para adultos, violentos o de conducción se reservan por lo general a hombres. Conclusiones: Este trabajo pone de manifiesto la enorme brecha de género existente aún hoy en la prensa de videojuegos, y llama la atención sobre determinados estereotipos que parecen seguir perpetuándose en la prensa especializada española.

Published: July 2022

In order to obtain the spatial-temporal distribution of fish resources together with its changes in sea ranching, and realize the acoustic monitoring and evaluation of fish resource proliferation in sea ranching, the acoustic evaluation technology of fish resources based on the echo statistics method is researched in this paper. Firstly, the simulation is conducted by constructing the fish school echo signal based on the Kirchhoff-ray model, and the simulation results show that the echo statistics method is suitable for acoustic monitoring of fish stocks in sea ranching. Then, the self-developed fish finder was used to survey the national sea ranching demonstration area in the western waters of Furong Island in Shandong Province by navigating in November 2020 and March 2021 respectively. The data obtained from the two voyages were post-processed using the echo statistics method, and the density changes and activities of the fish schools in different times and regions in the surveyed sea were obtained. The analysis results show that the echo statistics method is suitable for the monitoring and evaluation of fishery resources in the sea ranching area.

Gran Canarian Spanish: A Reflection of Weakening Language Change in the Spanish-Speaking World

The aim of the paper is to present a thorough description of the terms weakening and lenition in the context of language change, and to present major theories of lenition proposed in the framework of generative phonology. Among the most recent theories of lenition, we mention the proposal by Katz (2016) based on Kingston (2008) in which a distinction is made between loss and continuity lenition. We then present empirical data from the Canary Islands dialect of Spanish in which both types of lenition can be found, making the dialect a model example of weakening language change.

A practical intersection between bankruptcy institutions and international arbitration was considered for a long time as “a conflict of almost complete opposites: the bankruptcy institution is inexorably striving for centralization, while arbitration is based on a detailed approach to resolving disputes” 1. THIS QUOTATION FROM THE DECISION OF THE MASSCHUSSETTS DISTRICT COURT HAS LONG BECOME A CLASSIC AND VERY ACCURATE EXPLANATION OF THE DIFFICULTIES ARISING WHEN THESE LEGAL INSTITUTIONS CONTACT. REALLY, BOTH INSTITUTIONS HAVE SIGNIFICANT CONCEPTUAL DIFFERENCES. SO, ARBITRATION IS BASED ON THE AUTONOMY OF THE PARTIES; ARBITRATORS ARE GENERALLY APPOINTED BY THE PARTIES THEMSELVES; THE ARBITRATION IS CONFIDENTIAL; THE DECISION OF THE ARBITRATORS IS FINAL AND SUBJECT TO APPEAL. ALL THESE CHARACTERISTICS ARE NOT TYPICAL FOR THE INSTITUTION OF BANKRUPTCY. BANKRUPTCY CASES ARE CONSIDERED BY THE STATE COURT, ASSUME THE CREDITORS' COLLECTIVE PARTICIPATION IN THE CASE AND THEIR RIGHTS AND INTERESTS. THE CROSSING OF SO DIFFERENT LEGAL INSTITUTIONS, MUCH LACKING GENERAL LEGAL PRINCIPLES, GENERATES A LARGE NUMBER OF COMPLEX LEGAL PROBLEMS IN PRACTICE. SOME OF THEM WILL BE DISCUSSED IN THIS ARTICLE: THE LEGAL EFFECT OF THE BANKRUPTCY OF ONE OF THE PARTIES TO THE DISPUTE ON THE ENFORCEMENT OF THE ARBITRATION AGREEMENT AND ON THE ENFORCEMENT OF THE ARBITRATION AWARD.

Automatic sequences: from rational bases to trees
Authors: Rigo Michel , Stipulanti Manon
Published: July 2022

The $n$th term of an automatic sequence is the output of a deterministic
finite automaton fed with the representation of $n$ in a suitable numeration
system. In this paper, instead of considering automatic sequences built on a
numeration system with a regular numeration language, we consider those built
on languages associated with trees having periodic labeled signatures and, in
particular, rational base numeration systems. We obtain two main
characterizations of these sequences. The first one is concerned with $r$-block
substitutions where $r$ morphisms are applied periodically. In particular, we
provide examples of such sequences that are not morphic. The second
characterization involves the factors, or subtrees of finite height, of the
tree associated with the numeration system and decorated by the terms of the
sequence.
Why Does Propositional Quantification Make Modal and Temporal Logics on Trees Robustly Hard?
Authors: Bednarczyk Bartosz , Demri Stéphane
Published: July 2022

Adding propositional quantification to the modal logics K, T or S4 is known
to lead to undecidability but CTL with propositional quantification under the
tree semantics (tQCTL) admits a non-elementary Tower-complete satisfiability
problem. We investigate the complexity of strict fragments of tQCTL as well as
of the modal logic K with propositional quantification under the tree
semantics. More specifically, we show that tQCTL restricted to the temporal
operator EX is already Tower-hard, which is unexpected as EX can only enforce
local properties. When tQCTL restricted to EX is interpreted on N-bounded trees
for some N >= 2, we prove that the satisfiability problem is AExpPol-complete;
AExpPol-hardness is established by reduction from a recently introduced tiling
problem, instrumental for studying the model-checking problem for interval
temporal logics. As consequences of our proof method, we prove Tower-hardness
of tQCTL restricted to EF or to EXEF and of the well-known modal logics such as
K, KD, GL, K4 and S4 with propositional quantification under a semantics based
on classes of trees.
Los valores como recursos epistémicos en las críticas feministas de la ciencia
Authors: González García Marta I.
Published: July 2022

En este trabajo se analizan las aportaciones de las críticas feministas para el debate actual sobre el papel de los valores no epistémicos en la ciencia. La revitalización de la discusión sobre los valores y la responsabilidad social de la ciencia en las últimas décadas responde a preocupaciones como la crisis de la replicabilidad, la creciente comercialización o el papel de la ciencia para la política. En todas ellas la influencia de valores de carácter no epistémico aparece como problemática. La crítica feminista, no obstante, proporciona ejemplos del funcionamiento de los valores políticos como recursos para una crítica constructiva que, acompañada de reflexividad y capacidad de autocorrección por parte de las comunidades implicadas, puede promover los propios objetivos epistémicos de la ciencia. Utilizaré dos ejemplos bien conocidos, la primatología y la neurociencia cognitiva, para discutir la interacción de lo epistémico y lo no epistémico en las críticas feministas. Los casos analizados servirán también para explorar la propia interacción de valores en la recepción de las críticas y para introducir la discusión sobre el denominado “nuevo problema de la demarcación”.
Moringa oleifera ROOT-MEDIATED SYNTHESIS OF NANO SILVER PARTICLES AND THE ANTIBACTERIAL APPLICATIONS
Authors: Danbature W. L. , Shehu Z. , Joshua J. , Adam M. M.
Published: July 2022

In this work, Moringa oleifera root extract was used as the reducing agent in the reaction with AgNO3 leading to the formation of Ag NPs. The formation of the silver nanoparticles was indicated by a visual color changed. The synthesized nanoparticles were characterized using UV-Visible Spectrophotometer, Fourier Transformation Infrared (FT-IR), Scanning Electron Microscope (SEM), X-ray Diffractometer (XRD) and Energy-Dispersive X-ray (EDX) Spectroscopic Techniques. Agar Well method was used in the antibacterial bioassay against two gram positive and two-gram negative bacteria. Optical measurements using UV-Visible Spectrophotometer reveal the maximum absorption wavelength at 400 nm. The Fourier Transform Infrared Spectrophotometer confirmed the stabilization and capping process by the appearance of some peaks formally absent in the root extract spectra. EDX confirmed the presence of elemental silver. Investigations using SEM and XRD revealed that the NPs have crystalline shapes. The antibacterial bioassay showed significant inhibition values with better activity against gram negative bacteria compared to gram positive bacteria. The activity of the Ag NPs against these targeted organisms especially Salmonella typhi suggests that the research if further studied can be a basis for developing powerful antibacterial agents.
A REVIEW OF OIL SPILL POLLUTION AND AIR QUALITY IN THE NIGER DELTA: CAUSES, EFFECTS AND CONTROL
Authors: Akpoghelie J. O. , Ugbuku U. A. , Esemedafe U. J
Published: July 2022

Oil spill is the term used to describe the leak of crude petroleum into the environment. Though, the natural seeped of crude oil into the environment is inevitable, the rate of anthropogenic leaching of oil into the ecosystem is alarming. It is released intentionally into the environment through bunkery, pipeline vandalism, pipeline sabotage, corrosion of crude oil pipeline, poor maintenance culture of oil facilities, leak from faulty equipment and sometime, from accidental discharge from tankers, vessels, and other logistic process. While the presence of crude oil on surface water, underground water and the terrestrial contaminates and pollutes them, the open combustion with the atmosphere has no economic, health and socio – economic value. The products of this now deadly mixture of chemical compound are feeds to climate change, acid rain and its associated effects on the ecosystem and many health defects in man. Because the impacts of oil spill remain many years after cleanup, the synergy of green innovations and the implementation of the millennium development goal alone will not do the trick, stakeholders should sit and review the fundamental cause of oil seep into the environment and close the gaps identified in this study in other to nip the cause of oil spill in the bud.
RADIOLOGICAL HEALTH RISK EVALUATION OF DOMESTIC SOURCES OF WATER IN SELECTED LEAD MINING COMMUNITIES OF NASARAWA STATE, NORTH CENTRAL, NIGERIA
Authors: Onwuka J. C. , Jasper E. E. , Egyegbola D. A.
Published: July 2022

Mining activities is one of the causals of water pollution in recent times that could potentiate a great risk to human who depends on these water sources for domestic uses in Adudu, Abuni and Kanje mining communities of Nasarawa State. This research aimed to determine the quantity of radionuclides viz 238U, 232Th and 40K in surface and groundwater samples of these communities. The concentrations of the radionuclides were measured using Gamma-ray spectroscopy and the radiological hazard indices such as Radium Equivalent (Raeq), Dose Rate (DR), Annual Effective Dose Equivalent (AEDE), Hazard Index (Hi), Representative Radioactivity (Iy) and Excessive Life Cancer Risk (ELCR) were evaluated and used to analyze the data. 238U was found in 12 out of the 27 analyzed water samples with their concentrations within the WHO standard. The concentration of 232Th found in the sampled water sources were higher than the recommended limit except for samples B5 and S2. However, 40K was found in most water samples analyzed although the concentration was below the authorized standard. The evaluated radiological health hazard parameters (Raeq, DR, AEDE, AEDE, HI, Iy and ELCR) were generally below world average and WHO standard values for domestic water. Thus, this study showed that the concentrations of radionuclides in these sources of water pose no radiological health risk to the community dwellers and the presence of the radionuclides are due to the geologic and mineral composition of the study area rather than mining activities.
OXALATE-CALCIUM RATIOS OF COMMON CEREALS CONSUMED IN EASTERN NIGERIA
Authors: Oguezi V. U. , Ibekwe F.C. , Ngbed E.O.
Published: July 2022

The importance of Oxalate content of an individual plant in limiting total dietary calcium availability is of significance when the ratio oxalic to calcium (oxa:cal.) is greater than one. Food with oxal: cal ratio greater than two, have no utilizable calcium and contain excess oxalate while foodstuff with oxal:cal. of about one provides little calcium but do not inhibit the utilization of calcium provided by other products. The study analysed three commonly consumed cereals of oxalic acids and calcium by rigorous classical quantitative method of precipitation/titration and atomic absorption spectrophotometry, respectively. The result should oxal:cal. ratios>1 for all the cereals indicating that the cereals have no utilizable calcium, thus contain excess oxalate which not only complex the calcium contained in the food but also that derived from other food sources eaten together with it. This can result in deficiency of such an essential mineral as calcium in the body and even render the body prone to bone diseases and possibility of developing kidney stones due to calcium oxalate formation (calcium oxalate being the most common component of kidney stone).
Reflexiones sobre el cuerpo, imagen e identidad en la obra de Marina Núñez y Carmela García
Authors: Siquier Herrera María
Published: July 2022

Nuestra herencia femenina se ha visto afectada por el ojo del hombre y sus consecuentes intenciones. De hecho, la mujer parece haberse creado a imagen y semejanza del varón, del esposo, del novio, etc., “alzándose” como un constructo del imaginario masculino. Las artistas contemporáneas españolas Carmela García y Marina Núñez proyectan a través de sus obras los malestares que hemos sufrido a lo largo de nuestra vida por el simple hecho de haber nacido mujer y que, prácticamente, nos han obligado a padecer. La capacidad de acción de sus trabajos debilita y trasforma las fronteras de lo hegemónico hacia otras posibles ficciones preparadas para subvertir el sesgado modelo androcentrista. A través de un estudio sobre la identidad, la imagen y, sobre todo, del cuerpo femenino, comprenderemos que el arte ha sido capaz de crear nuevas voces y miradas.

Published: July 2022

In this paper, the author will try to revitalize the significance of the basic classical postulates of public spending, starting with their traditionally accepted content, with a special review of the very important content extensions of these principles in contemporary budget systems. The explicit or taciturn neglect of the significance of the classical principles of public spending - generality, moderation and savings - in many modern financial systems of today has resulted in serious fiscal disproportions. On the other hand, the planning of the production of public goods and services financed by taxpayers increasingly puts real interests of taxpayers to the forefront, which caused the popularity of the postulate of efficiency and effectiveness in the form of essentially "more operational" statements of the classical principles of public consumption.

Securing transaction and providing secure storage and transmission of information at electronic commerce and electronic banking is a very complex and expensive process. They are based on the establishment of a protected system and a protocol that will be able to identify possible fraud and analyze the risk and loss that can occur. The protection system demands installation of a predefined security mechanism such as access controll, user authentication, encryption of information and establishing of security protocol. Each system which is collecting and storing data and information belongs to the group of threatened system and needs protection. Generally, each person, object or event, which can potentially leads to security breach, can be considered as threat. Such threat may be accidental (unwanted file deletion) or intentionall (malicious modification of sensitive data or hardware system). However, those threats must be identified and prevented, and if they have already succeeded, an appropriatte procedure should be taken for the disposal and minimization of damages.

Authors: Ko Stephanie Q , Goh Joel , Tay Yee Kian , Nashi Norshima , Hooi Benjamin MY , Luo Nan , Kuan Win Sen , Soong John TY , Chan Derek , Lai Yi Feng , Lim Yee Wei
Published: July 2022

Introduction: Hospital-at-home programmes are well described in the literature but not in Asia. We describe a home-based inpatient substitutive care programme in Singapore, with clinical and patient-reported outcomes. Methods: We conducted a retrospective cohort study of patients admitted to a hospital-at-home programme from September 2020 to September 2021. Suitable patients, who otherwise required hospitalisation, were admitted to the programme. They were from inpatient wards, emergency department and community nursing teams in the western part of Singapore, where a multidisciplinary team provided hospital-level care at home. Electronic health record data were extracted from all patients admitted to the programme. Patient satisfaction surveys were conducted post-discharge. Results: A total of 108 patients enrolled. Mean age was 67.9 (standard deviation 16.7) years, and 46% were male. The main diagnoses were skin and soft tissue infections (35%), urinary tract infections (29%) and fluid overload (18%). Median length of stay was 4 (interquartile range 3–7) days. Seven patients were escalated back to the hospital, of whom 2 died after escalation. One patient died at home. There was 1 case of adverse drug reaction and 1 fall at home, and no cases of hospital-acquired infections. Patient satisfaction rates were high and 94% of contactable patients would choose to participate again. Conclusion: Hospital-at-home programmes appear to be safe and feasible alternatives to inpatient care in Singapore. Further studies are warranted to compare clinical outcomes and cost to conventional inpatient care. Keywords: Home-based, hospital-at-home, hospital care, internal medicine, public health

Analysis Of The Effect Of Economic Growth In The Anhui Free Trade Zone Of China-Based On The Synthetic Control Method
Authors:   School of Statistics and Applied Mathematics, Anhui University of Finance and Economics, Bengbu 233030, P. R. China, Wang Rong
Published: July 2022

Based on panel data from January 2017 to November 2021, the article uses the year-on-year growth of industrial value-added as an indicator of economic growth and uses the synthetic control method to analyze the economic growth effects of the Anhui FTA and whether the Hefei Area can drive the economic growth of prefecture-level cities within Anhui Province. In exploring the impact of the FTZ on the economies of prefecture-level cities, the economic gravity model and the radiation theory are applied to study the prefecture-level cities that are only affected by the Hefei Area. The results show that the establishment of the Anhui FTZ could promote the economic growth of Anhui. However, this promotion is not sustainable, and there is no significant promotion impact on the year-on-year growth of import and export volume. The Hefei zone can drive the level of economic development of prefecture-level cities, but this boost is short-lived. Therefore, we should pay more attention to finding the root cause of the positive effect of the FTZ in the long term. In particular, the article is based on Lasso regression synthesis for robustness testing.
Nation-States, Economic Protectionism, National Security, the Solarwinds Cyber-Attack, and the Impact on Supply Chains from the Russian-Ukrainian War
Authors:   Morgan State University
Published: July 2022

This paper aims to discuss the cyber and kinetic effects of supply chain disruptions from the perspective that kinetic disruptions have a far more significant impact than cyber disruptions. The SolarWinds supply chain cyber-attack is reviewed in light of its kinetic effects. The Russian-Ukrainian war is then discussed, where the article observes that the kinetic effects of the conflict have far more real-life consequences than the SolarWinds cyber-attack. The paper’s thesis does not discount the effects of a cyber-attack on supply chains. Instead, it perceives that kinetic disruptions of supply chains due to economic sanctions are promptly experienced, whereas cyber disruptions have an almost ethereal quality as far as the public is concerned. The result is that the current economic sanctions against the Russian Federation, its allies, and its people are affecting the sanctionees and the sanctionors. The article concludes that the supply chain disruptions caused by Western sanctions have a larger kinetic effect than the SolarWinds cyber-attack.
The Futuristic Concept of Abuse of Authority in Criminal Acts of Corruption
Authors:   Lecturer at the Faculty of Law, Universitas Islam Al Azhar Mataram
Published: July 2022

As a concept, the term "abuse of authority" is used by 2 (two) legal regimes, namely by the administrative law regime and by the criminal law regime of corruption, both legal regimes are public law. The impact of using the concept of abuse of authority by 2 (two) different legal regimes on the same concept/term in case of abuse of authority is the birth of concurrent jurisdiction between the State Administrative Court and the Corruption Court. Concurrent jurisdiction over the same material by 2 different judicial institutions. After the enactment of Law Number 30 of 2014 concerning Government Administration, especially Article 21 according to the author's observation, there have never been cases of corruption cases filed by the special Public Prosecutor concerning the indictment of Article 3 of Law 20 of 2001 concerning Amendments to Laws -Law Number 31 of 1999 concerning the Eradication of Corruption has been tested beforehand regarding whether or not there is an element of abuse of authority by the State Administrative Court. This situation shows that the application of laws and regulations is faced with two things, namely "performance" (validity) and usability (efficacy). While usability is related to whether the norm is adhered to or not.

The role of confession by the accused person has an important place in the judicial structure of Pakistan. The courts evaluate the admissibility of the confessional statement and apply their judicial mind with free consent. The legal framework of Pakistan including QSO 1984, and Cr. P. C 1898 provides basic law and procedure to record a confession in the criminal justice system. However, the accused is not being dealt with fairly while recording confessions at the pre-trial and trial stage. Usually, police use undue influence to record a confessional statement. The procedures adopted for the recording of confession during the pendency of the trial. The current study has evaluated the values and norms of recording confessional statements. This research paper adopted the doctrinal research methodology to achieve the objectives. In addition, it also argues for the acceptability of the confession of co-accused in the criminal justice system. Moreover, this research evaluates the validity of a confessional statement in the justice process in Pakistan. Lastly, this research discusses the executable references regarding the recording of confession at all stages and its value in the eyes of law to uphold justice and avoid the unjust.
The Correlation between Exchange Rates and Selected Types of Building Materials Prices in Namibia, 2016-2021
Authors:   Assistant Portfolio Manager & Economist at First Capital Namibia, Siboleka Milner
Published: July 2022

Namibia is faced with low access levels to housing, a situation partly ascribed to costly building materials. As an open small economy which imports a significant share of its building materials requirements, the exchange rate remains key factor on the trend of end user prices. This paper analyzed bivariate relationships between the exchange rate and building material prices disaggregated in six categories of building materials namely: Brickwork materials; Roofing, doors & window materials; Plumbing materials; Electrical materials; Tilling & painting materials; and Total materials. The correlation coefficient results ranged from 0.4751 to 0.8990 with Tilling & Painting and brickwork materials having the lowest of all albeit generally still high correlation coefficient of 0.5 while Electrical and Plumbing materials have the highest correlation coefficients of 0.8990 and 0.7819 respectively. This paper interprets these results in line with composition of imports among these categories. Brickwork materials that have the lowest correlation coefficient alongside tilling and painting materials are predominantly produced locally while Electrical and plumbing materials with the highest correlation coefficients are predominantly imported
Neglect, Virtual Reality and Music Therapy: A Narrative Review
Authors: Danso Andrew , Leandertz Mikaela , Ala-Ruona Esa , Rousi Rebekah
Published: July 2022

Neglect is typically experienced after suffering from a stroke. Despite various rehabilitative interventions used in treatment for neglect, there is no consensus about the most effective intervention or treatment. Virtual Reality (VR) combined with music therapy practices may offer a promising intervention for use during neglect rehabilitation. This review summarises evidence of existing interventions and assessments used for post-stroke and neglect rehabilitation on patients in VR and music therapy research. Non-systematic searches of the PubMed and PsycINFO databases were conducted to retrieve relevant articles. Overall, literature found in small studies suggests promising findings for symptom reduction during neglect rehabilitation through the use of VR and Musical Neglect Training interventions. This was coupled with a demonstration of feasibility and safety. Novel evidence is found in stimulation of specific neurological regions in neglect patients during exposure to a VR intervention. However, larger trials with consistent assessments are needed to arrive at generalisations. Based on the evidence reviewed, the article explores intersections of VR and music therapy interventions with the purpose of neglect rehabilitation.

Application of Innovative Practices by Business Educators for Improving Societal Values in South-East Nigeria
Authors: Ezenwafor Justina I. , Ihejirika Eunice
Published: July 2022

The increasing level of moral decadence among the people of South-East Nigeria necessitated the study to determine innovative practices being applied by business educators to improve societal values in the area. Two research questions guided the study and four null hypotheses were tested. Descriptive survey research design was adopted for the study. The entire population of 215 business educators in all public tertiary institutions in the area was studied without sampling as the researchers were able to manage the size. A validated Likert scale questionnaire containing 24 items in two clusters was used for data collection. The instrument was tested for reliability and an overall reliability coefficient value of 0.76 was obtained. Data collected were analyzed using the arithmetic mean to answer the research questions and standard deviation to determine how homogenous the respondents were in their views. ANOVA was used to test the null hypotheses at 0.05 level of significance. Findings revealed that the subjects apply the two innovative practices in the study at a great extent. The respondents differed significantly in their extent of application of social responsibility principles as a result of educational attainment and experience but did not in ICT competencies. Based on the findings, it was concluded that the business educators were applying innovative principles that could lead to improved societal values and that if lectures in other fields follow suit, graduates of tertiary educational institutions would demonstrate appropriate values to reduce the level of moral decadence. Consequently, it was recommended that management of tertiary educational institutions in the area and governments should encourage the business educators and lecturers in other fields of learning to widely apply innovative practices for improved societal values by adequately providing instructional resources and sponsoring them to seminars, conferences and short courses to acquire the relevant skills and competencies.
Container Tree Plantings in the City
Authors: Cervelli Janice
Published: July 2022

The 4'X4'X4' raised container (ree has been advocated as a quick, flexible, and inexpensive solution to tree planting beautification in the city. This paper evaluates the effectiveness of such containers to provide for both the physiological needs of the plant and the visual, functional, and aesthetic needs of urban design. A brief summary of the cultural problems of container trees in the midwest and northeastern states is followed by a discussion of the effectual role of trees in urban design and the creation of successful urban spaces. The value of the beautification container in this capacity is critically examined and alternatives to its use presented. Wherever possible, large shade trees planted at grade are suggested. Where conditions necessitate raised plantings, shade tree massings grouped in large planting beds are favored over the container.
Business Continuity Planning Concerns of the Closely-Held Business Owner
Authors: Olinger Gary
Published: July 2022

If you are the owner of a small, closely-held business, it is likely that your business comprises a most significant portion of your net worth and/or your income-producing capability. In that context, it is important to evaluate options available to you relative to this business enterprise in the event that you do not want or cannot physically maintain operational control over the business. Retirement, death, or prolonged disability of the major owner can dramatically impact a closely-held business. Planning for these eventualities in advance of their occurrence, therefore, is something no business owner can afford to ignore.
Coping with Clay: Trees to Suite Sites, Sites to Suit Trees
Authors: Ware George
Published: July 2022

Soils high in clay content are subject to widespread springtime wetness and poor aeration for tree root systems. Selection of kinds of trees tolerant of soil adversities and preparation of planting places for better accommodation of the selected trees are concurrent needs that must be meshed if there are to be enduring urban landscapes. Selection of better urban trees should be based primarily upon ecological attributes, including geographic and edaphic origins. Planting places should be conducive to rapid root proliferation and establishment following transplanting.
Urban Forestry in the Chicago Suburbs
Authors: Robson Harold
Published: July 2022

Urban forestry programs in the Chicago suburbs provide services through contracts, in-house methods, and a combination of the two. The main element that guarantees a successful urban forestry program is community support through media public relations. Offering professional con­sulting services as a public service also promotes the necessary community support. Many programs in the Chicago area started as a result of the spread of Dutch elm disease and it is imperative to maintain these programs after the crisis is over. Cooperation and an open forum among the various pro­fessionals working in the urban forest at different levels, is another factor that aids in the continuation of urban forestry programs.

Treatment of Chlorotic Oaks and Red Maples by Soil Acidification
Authors: Messenger Steve
Published: July 2022

Rooting zone soil pHs and foliar nutrient imbalances were determined for chlorotic pin oaks, white oaks, and red maples. Soil pHs were significantly different between green and chlorotic tree sites of each species to a depth of 18-22 inches. Nutrient imbalances consisted of high phosphorus, potassium, and magnesium depending on season and species; and low manganese, iron, copper, and zinc depending on season and species. Abatement of chlorosis was accomplished by soil acidification with or without nutrient or mulch additions. Acidifications with sulfuric acid rapidly reduces the pH of alkaline soils to desired levels which may persist in treated subsoil zones for as long as four years.
