Authors: Hutasoit Rijanto , Riyadi . , Sirait Juniar
Published: March 2019

Indigofera zollingeriana (Indigofera) plant is potential feed ingredients. The propagation of this plant is through seed. The low quality of seed is a problem in its development. This study was aimed to evaluate the relationship of pod colour with quality of Indigofera seeds. The study was designed in a complete randomized design consisting of four pod colours and four replications, namely: P1= green, P2= brownish green, P3= brown, and P4= black. The parameters observed were: characteristic and morphology of pods and seeds of Indigofera, the growth of sprouts, and the growth of fungus on Indigofera seed. Results showed that the number of pests was fewest found in P2, brownish green pod (14%). The highest number of seeds was in P1, green pod (5173) and P2, brownish green pod (4944). The highest germination (62%) was detected in P2 (brownish green). The heaviest sprout was in P2, in brownish green pod (0.035g), highest sprout (2.68 cm) in P4, black pod colour. Based on fungus observation, the black pod (P4) provided the fewest result (6.63%), however most fungus grew very well in P1, the green pod (47.88%). It could be concluded that the brownish green pod colour was the best phase for harvesting good quality I. zolligeriana seed.

Mind mapping is primarily a learning technique based on creating pictorial notes (Buzan 2003). In the present article, mind maps were used as a tool for the study of social representations, so as to investigate a broad spectrum of ideas, beliefs, and values related to multilingualism. The study involved a group of French Philology students training to become teachers of the French language, and its aim was to determine the extent to which their initial representations of multilingualism were consistent with the theoretical assumptions of the Council of Europe’s language policy. This policy encourages teachers of foreign languages to develop multilingual competence among students. The analysis of mind maps and the transcription of the group interview leads to the conclusion that the respondents show some areas of ignorance and stereotypical beliefs that should be reflected upon in the course of their further education preparing them to the teaching profession.
OCENA WŁASNYCH ZDOLNOŚCI UCZNIÓW UZDOLNIONYCH JĘZYKOWO W POLSKICH SZKOŁACH PONADGIMNAZJALNYCH
Authors: Sobańska Joanna
Published: March 2019

An exceptionally linguistically talented student should have all the predispositions to be multi-linguistic. The reason is that such skills, at least potentially, assume high predispositions to learn all foreign languages. And even though the process of language learning and its efficiency depends on many other factors, one of them is the assessment of one’s skills and potential by the linguistically talented student. The aim of the article is to present convictions of students identified as linguistically talented with respect to their skills and achievements concerning foreign language learning. A large part of the paper deals with the presentation of theoretical aspects related to linguistic skills and a short analysis of selected factors that influence the development of linguistic skills in students, in particular the assessment of own skills and possibilities by students (self-assessment).

Korean language learning demotivation among EFL instructors in South Korea
Authors: Gearing Nigel
Published: March 2019

Studies investigating the motivation of L1 speakers of English to learn the national language of the host society they currently reside in remain rare, despite the exponential growth of such individuals residing in these nations this century. Previous such studies in South Korea have concluded that learning Korean as a second language (L2) is largely perceived as difficult, unnecessary and is therefore accompanied by experiences of demotivation and amotivation (see Gearing & Roger, 2018). However, these studies did not explicitly address demotivation and amotivation when examining experiences that affect the motivation to learn Korean of 14 English as a Foreign Language (EFL) instructors working in South Korean university language education centers (LECs). Therefore, this study investigates which learning experiences resulted in the amotivation of participants and how two participants who experienced demotivation employed strategies to remotivate themselves. Coding of semi-structured interviews and optional diaries found that despite intent, most participants displayed symptoms of both amotivation and demotivation. The main implication of this study is that in the absence of perceived necessity, affected individuals with insufficient internal motivation or vision to acquire Korean consequently attribute externally related demotivating experiences to pre-existing or resulting amotivation.
Autoscaling tiered cloud storage in Anna
Authors: Wu Chenggang , Sreekanti Vikram , Hellerstein Joseph M.
Published: March 2019

In this paper, we describe how we extended a distributed key-value store called Anna into an autoscaling, multi-tier service for the cloud. In its extended form, Anna is designed to overcome the narrow cost-performance limitations typical of current cloud storage systems. We describe three key aspects of Anna's new design: multi-master selective replication of hot keys, a vertical tiering of storage layers with different cost-performance tradeoffs, and horizontal elasticity of each tier to add and remove nodes in response to load dynamics. Anna's policy engine uses these mechanisms to balance service-level objectives around cost, latency and fault tolerance. Experimental results explore the behavior of Anna's mechanisms and policy, exhibiting orders of magnitude efficiency improvements over both commodity cloud KVS services and research systems.

Published: March 2019

Bentonite is the candidate buffer and backfill material in the deep geological repositories. Montmorillonite (Mt) is the major clay minerals of bentonite. Over a long period of time, the interaction of corrosion products from overpack and/or cansister with clay minerals is expected to result in formation of Fe(III)-Mt, a plausible alterated product. In this context, it is important to understand the properties of Fe-Mt in comparison with original clay mineral, Na-Mt. In the present study, sorption behavior of Cs(I), long lived fission product (135Cs, t1/2 = 2.3 × 106 years; 137Cs, t1/2 = 30.1 years) with high fission yield, on Fe(III)-Mt is investigated. Batch sorption studies are conducted at varying pH (3–9), ionic strength (0.001–1 M) and Cs(I) concentration (10−10 to 0.05 M). The distribution coefficient (Kd) of Cs(I) on Fe(III)-Mt was found to be independent of pH except at low pH, indicating ion exchange mechanism as dominant interaction mode for Cs(I). It was further verified by ionic strength variation which depicted decrease in Cs(I) sorption with increasing ionic strength. Adsorption isotherm of Cs(I) was found to be linear over the concentration range of 10−10 to 10−3 M Cs(I). The Fe released from Fe(III)-Mt during the Cs(I) sorption was found to be not more than 0.2 ppm. However, on lowering the pH and increasing the ionic strength, the Fe release increased. Furthermore, the apparent diffusion coefficient for Cs(I) in Fe(III)-Mt has been determined.
Schrödinger’s Robot: Privacy in Uncertain States
Authors: Kerr Ian
Published: March 2019

Can robots or AIs operating independently of human intervention or oversight diminish our privacy? There are two equal and opposite reactions to this issue. On the robot side, machines are starting to outperform human experts in an increasing array of narrow tasks, including driving, surgery, and medical diagnostics. This is fueling a growing optimism that robots and AIs will exceed humans more generally and spectacularly; some think, to the point where we will have to consider their moral and legal status. On the privacy side, one sees the very opposite: robots and AIs are, in a legal sense, nothing.

The received view is that since robots and AIs are neither sentient nor capable of human-level cognition, they are of no consequence to privacy law. This article argues that robots and AIs operating independently of human intervention can and, in some cases, already do diminish our privacy. Epistemic privacy offers a useful analytic framework for understanding the kind of cognizance that gives rise to diminished privacy. Because machines can actuate on the basis of the beliefs they form in ways that affect people’s life chances and opportunities, I argue that they demonstrate the kind of cognizance that definitively implicates privacy. Consequently, I conclude that legal theory and doctrine will have to expand their understanding of privacy relationships to include robots and AIs that meet these epistemic conditions. An increasing number of machines possess epistemic qualities that force us to rethink our understanding of privacy relationships with robots and AIs.
Theorizing Privacy in a Liberal Democracy: Canadian Jurisprudence, Anti-Terrorism, and Social Memory After 9/11
Authors: Steeves Valerie
Published: March 2019

The creation of new search powers in the Canadian Anti-Terrorism Act post-9/11 to make citizens more transparent to state surveillance was less a new phenomenon than an extension of preexisting tendencies to make citizens transparent to the state, so the risks they pose can be efficiently managed. However, 9/11 brought about a shift in the ways in which the Supreme Court of Canada talked about terrorism; terrorism was no longer placed on a continuum of criminal activity but was elevated to a threat to Canadian values as a whole. I argue that, paradoxically, this shift reconnected the Court to earlier discourses about privacy as an essential element of democratic governance and reinvigorated narratives around the importance of the public-private boundary to democratic relationships by situating privacy within narratives informed by social memory. From this perspective, privacy can be conceptualized as a status claim: as citizens, we are entitled to privacy because privacy is the boundary that creates right relationships between citizens and between citizens and the state. This avoids pitting privacy as an individual right against societal interests in transparency because it more fully actualizes Priscilla Regan’s call to theorize the value of privacy as a public good central to liberal democratic governance. This conception also reconnects Alan Westin’s original understanding of privacy as an element of liberal democracy to the sociological research he drew on, enriching the liberal conception of privacy by locating it in the intersubjective communication of cultural actors living in community.
Synthesis and Satisfaction: How Philosophy Scholarship Matters
Authors: Allen Anita L.
Published: March 2019

Privacy and technology clash in the courts. I elaborate the example of Puttaswamy v Union of India (2017), an example from the High Court of India, whose sweeping and inclusive jurisprudential style raises starkly the question of the influence that academic philosophers and other scholars have over how legitimate societal interests in exploiting information technology and protecting personal privacy are “balanced” by the courts. Philosophers will be satisfied to see that their theories are acknowledged in a landmark national decision finding that India’s 1.3 billion people have a constitutional, fundamental right to privacy that constrains a challenged government biometric identification system. Some scholars will appreciate the inclusive definition of privacy, which included decisional privacy, combined with the treatment of privacy as a paramount human good meriting the protection of fundamental rights. But some academic philosophers are potentially disappointed that the Court synthesizes rather than differentiates among their competing theories, concepts, and definitions, and, in the end, relies upon liberal Enlightenment ideals that some scholars have argued are singularly ill-suited for the twenty-first century.

Green Brains & Ground Sloths: A Paleoecology-Based Exercise in Hypothesis Formation
Authors: Robischon Marcel
Published: March 2019

In organismic biology, the formation of ecological and evolutionary hypotheses on the basis of observable morphologies is a central element of research, and by extension of teaching and learning. Often it is necessary to take account of complex combinations of factors, some of which may be far from obvious. In the work described here, hypothesis formation and testing was exercised and studied in a learner-centered and object-based manner using an anachronistic, seemingly “nonsensical” plant, Maclura pomifera (Moraceae), in which the link between structure and function only becomes clear when considering past faunistic environments. The element of the unexpected and the allure of the large animals is thought to add to epistemic curiosity and student motivation to engage in the study of plants.
Fatal Attraction: Visual Cues in Attracting Prey to Carnivorous Plants
Authors: Matzner Steven L. , Carney Cathryn L. , Hagemeier Deborah A. , Miles Cecelia
Published: March 2019

Exposing students to carnivorous plants within course-based undergraduate research can heighten student interest in plants and create a foundation on which to build future student projects. Carnivorous plants derive nutrients by trapping animals, but unlike most other predators, they lack mobility and are thought to attract prey through a combination of visual and olfactory cues. As part of a semester-long undergraduate research project for a junior/senior-level plant ecology class, students used carnivorous plants and artificial traps to test the importance of visual cues in the capture of wild-type and visually impaired (w1118) Drosophila melanogaster. Over the 13-week semester, students worked in groups to generate questions, design experiments, analyze data, and present results both orally and in a written manuscript. A major focus was developing students' ability to compare their results with the literature. Upon completion, manuscripts were uploaded to a digital archive for use by future students in designing projects. This database of readily accessible past projects provides students with an accessible literature base that enables them to build upon previous work in a way that more accurately reflects real-world research.

Published: March 2019

Las titulaciones ácido base son un grupo de técnicas de enorme empleo en diferentes sectores de la industría y la academia. En este sentido, se caracterizaron diferentes sistemas de medición para titulaciones ácido-base, con el propósito de determinar cuál presenta mejores características metrológicas. Estos sistemas incluyen volumetrías, gravimetrías y tres diferentes modos de detección del punto final. Como parte de este proceso, se propone una nueva aproximación para la estimación de la incertidumbre de medición asociada a la detección del punto final de la titulación.  Los resultados indicaron que las incertidumbres más bajas se obtienen mediante el método potenciométrico, sin embargo se encontró que este es fuertemente dependiente de la resolución del instrumento y/o la cantidad de agente titulante que se adiciona en la cercanía al punto de equivalencia. Posteriormente, se compararon los sistemas de titulación gravimétricos y volumétricos, y se encontró que la incertidumbre disminuye cerca del 40% empleando métodos gravimétricos. Finalmente se realizó la evaluación del sesgo de los sistemas de medición acorde con la guía ISO 33:2015. Los resultados mostraron que para ninguno de los casos el sesgo es significativo, sin embargo el sesgo del método conductimétrico es hasta 78 veces mayor que el obtenido mediante potenciometría.
Old Finnish language and written Finnish literature in 1560–1640
Authors: Bratchikova Nadezda S.
Published: March 2019

The genesis of the old Finnish language (1560-1640) is unique due to two historical reasons: first, the literature of this period was religious; secondly, religious and literary languages represented a single entity.
The material of the study was the texts of the period of Catholicism and early Lutheranism (1560-1640). The author employed the analysis of semantic models, rhetorical devices, language structures (helped to identify the peculiarities of the formation of the old Finnish language and the reasons for the growth of its influence on the audience), content analysis of texts (allowed to trace the stages of transition in the church service from Latin and German to Finnish) were used. Comparison of folk texts with the translated ones revealed their common features (repetitions at the level of phrase and alliteration).
The development of Old Finnish language was decelerated by the excessive use of the Latin language. However, by the middle of the 16th century, the external and internal political situations in Finland were in favour of using the Finnish language as an instrument of religious authority and a means of cultural influence on society.
The written literature of Finland in the studied period was of a translatable state. The translated literature was pivotal in the formation and development of verbal art. Educated people (Justen, Finno, Hemminki from Mask, Sorolainen and L. Petri) made a vast contribution to the written language. Due to them, it was enriched with various forms of dialects and a greater lexicon.

This article was migrated. The article was marked as recommended. In order to enhance the knowledge of different aspects of active teaching methods in medical education, and to introduce self-directed learning activities in home curriculum as well as to implement the research capacity building, a group of professors and researchers from two Brazilian Universities, namely, Universidade Estadual Paulista (UNESP), Botucatu Medical School, São Paulo, and Pontifícia Universidade Católica (PUC-MINAS), Minas Gerais, visited McMaster University in Canada in July 4-8, 2016. This paper is a brief report of the 5-day workshop and discussions among the McMaster and Brazilian colleagues. Among the topics covered, a detailed overview of the medical curriculum, "The COMPASS Curriculum"; in this learning process, students development of the problem-solving strategy, and helping cover learning objectives and knowledge transfer while discussing the clinical case-scenarios; other attention was given for strategies on how to provide institutional learning support for undergraduate students in order to achieve proposed learning objectives were presented, including discussions of a variety of integration possibilities between researchers and students, from different areas as well as joint supervision of PhD programs. Emphasis was given to the Research in Global Health with their inter-disciplinary methods, and transcultural care, that has created an impact on the professional practice. About Evidence Based Medicine was strengthened how its methods have moved to evidence-informed health systems which contribute to collective problem-solving, and in sharing the supporting tools for policies in public health. All talks and discussions were of very high quality and provided the basis for us to start discussing an implementation of the learned content in the curriculum. Finally, the opened opportunity of partnership among McMaster University, with two Brazilian medical schools, expanded medical education experience, possibilities for change, training and implementation of community programs, but also reinforced research methods and technology, promote collaboration aimed at health education.
Inferential based statistical indicators for the assessment of solar resource data
Authors: Clohessy Chantelle May , Sharp Gary , Hugo Johan , Van Dyk E.
Published: March 2019

The drive to reduce fossil fuel dependency led to a surge in interest in renewable energy as a replacement fuel source, which provided research opportunities for vastly different domains. Statistical modelling was used extensively to assist in research. This study applied two statistical techniques that can be used in conjunction or independently to existing methods to validate solar resource data simulated from models. The case study, using a database from a Southern African Universities Radiometric Network,  provided illustrative benefits to the methods proposed, while comparing them with some of the validation methods currently used. It was demonstrated that profile analysis plots are easy to interpret, as deviations between modelled and measured data over time are clearly observed, while traditional validation scatter plots are unable to distinguish these deviations.

Although Batrachochytrium
dendrobatidis, pathogen for amphibians, has been reported in Anatolia, its
geographical distribution, as well as its impact on the amphibians in Turkey,
remained obscure. In this study, 62 adult individuals belonging to ten
different species (Pelodytes caucasicus, Rana dalmatina, Rana
macrocnemis, Bufo bufo, Bufo verrucosissimus, Bufotes variabilis,
Hyla savignyi, Pelophylax ridibundus, Ommatotriton ophryticus,
and Mertensiella caucasicus) were collected from five wetland habitats
in Eastern Black Sea Region of Turkey. The prevalence and the intensity of B.
dendrobatidis infections in all the individuals were investigated by using
quantitative Real-time-PCR technique and the presence of B. dendrobatidis
infection was reported for the first time in 13 of the 62 individuals collected
from 10 amphibian species from Eastern Black Sea Region of Turkey. The
intensity of B. dendrobatidis infection ranged from 403.520 to 534.280
genomic equivalents (GE) was detected. The highest GE between
amphibian species were determined in P. caucasicus (534.280 GE)
in Uzungöl (Çaykara-Trabzon) and B. bufo (504.00 GE) in Lake
Karagöl (Şavşat-Artvin).
Prospective English Language Teachers’ Opinions About Community Service Practices
Authors: DEMİR BORA
Published: March 2019

Community service applications is a course provided by faculties of education in order to give the prospective teachers the chance to identify social problems related their field, develop project focused on social problems, analyze general needs of the society, become acquainted with public institutions, debate social problems, and develop positive attitude towards participating to community service practices. The aim of this study is to find out prospective language teachers’ teaching experiences and opinions about their community service applications. 20 prospective teachers from an English language teaching department of a state university participated in this qualitative study. The participants were given a semi-structured questionnaire with questions related to their teaching experience at a kindergarten. After 10 weeks and 10 hours of teaching experience the participants’ reports were analyzed according to content analysis approach. The results indicated that most of the participants developed positive attitudes towards teaching in such a public service and reported this activity as inspiring for their future teaching. The study concluded that more importance should be given to community service appliances since it is much helpful for prospective teachers’ teaching experiences and at the same time it provides opportunity for students to identify social related issues and hence develop a bridge between the university and the society.
German-American Academic Migration and the Emergence of the American Research University, 1865–1910
Authors: Zemliakova Tetiana
Published: March 2019

The study investigates into the background, process and effects of the Ger­man-American academic transfer of the second half of the 19th century and its role in the development of the modern American research university. The crisis of the traditional American college that reached its climax after the Ci­vil War prompted a few waves of academic migrations to Germany. Most gra­duates chose to return to the US, where they formed a group of reformers to promote the German university model during the Academic Revolution. The student body is analyzed as the main mediator which determined the way this model was adapted and implemented. In analyzing the transfer of the concept of “academic freedom”, the study looks at how exactly the process was af­fected by the mediator. The reformist agenda pursued by the German gra­duates in the US was directed against the hegemony of pietist administrators and the ideology of the “all-rounded-man” education. Achievement of those goals suggested the establishment of graduate research programs to be re­gulated by the academic community at its own discretion. The article consists of three parts, which describe the background, motives and process of stu­dent migration, the position of American students in German universities, and their perception of the German research university model. The final part of the article examines the political agenda of the “reformist-returnees” and its implementation.
The Main Scenarios for the Formation of Territorial Autonomies in the Modern World (Constitutional and Legal Aspect)
Authors: Irkhin I. V.
Published: March 2019

As part of the analysis of the practices of institutionalization of constitutional and legal status of territorial autonomies of Bolivia, Great Britain, Denmark, India, Indonesia, Canada, China, Moldova, Uzbekistan, Finland on the basis of the criteria and methods of their formation, it is indicated that there are two main scenarios. According to the first one, territorial autonomies are formed on the basis of international and national legal acts. The second scenario assumes the formation of autonomies based on national legal acts only.

In the structure of the first scenario, territorial autonomies formed as a result of negotiations between the parties to the conflict (confrontation model) and in the Directive order (Directive model) are separated. In the structure of the second scenario, territorial autonomies established following the negotiations on the basis a peaceful compromise or as a result of confrontation (consensus and confrontation models), as well as autonomies formed unilaterally (policy model) are highlighted.

The conceptual requirements for the successful institutionalization of territorial autonomy are as follows: the presence of rooted in society and the state traditions of democracy and the rule of law; the establishment of a real regime of internal self-government; limited material and financial resources and the resulting dependence on the state; the absence of disputes about sovereignty; clarity of the formal legal structure of the constitutional legal status; small population and the territory of autonomy. In this case, the structure and content of these requirements are very mobile, and therefore can be combined in different proportions with different specific gravity.

Typical examples of the most stable territorial autonomies (in terms of territorial integrity and unity of the state), in which these conditions are present in different volumes, are the autonomies of Bolivia, the Aland Islands, the Faroe Islands, Hong Kong and Macao. This category can also include Karakalpakstan and Nunavut because of their total dependence on the support of national governments.

In turn, the potential for the development of separatist tendencies remains in the UK (Scotland, Northern Ireland), India, Indonesia, China (Tibet), Moldova, and the Philippines.
Privacy of an individual: the concept, essence and legal nature
Authors: Lyapunov B. A.
Published: March 2019

The article is devoted to the issues of comparative legal analysis and correlation of theoretical and legal concepts of personal privacy prevailing in foreign legal literature, and is aimed at determining the legal nature, essence and social value of privacy for the individual, society and the State in the conditions of formation and development of social relations in the age of information technology. For the first time in the domestic legal literature, the article attempts to define the author’s theoretical and legal model (concept) of understanding privacy of an individual as a complex system of interrelated elements, i.e. rights and freedoms of the individual, reveals the essence and legal nature of relevant elements, provides for the author’s definitions of elements in question, and draws conclusions concerning importance of this approach for both domestic legal science and court practice.
Legal drafting in Islamic law
Authors: Vaino A. A.
Published: March 2019

The paper analyzes the features of legal drafting in Islamic law. Based on the study, the author concludes that Muslim law appears to be in many ways religious and legal comments. This is set by its religious sources that contain specific legal provisions. These sources lack structuring and systematic character, which is a source of rather a high degree of casuistry of Islamic law. The paper proves that Islamic law has shown a confusion of religious principles with legal norms since the moment of its appearance. The comments of legal scholars were actively used to justify illegal — from the point of view of European lawyers — behavior. With the help of legal drafting in Islamic law, legal postulates and opinions were legalized, which to this day largely determine the legal culture of the overwhelming majority of the population. This means that the problem of the relationship between secular and confessional law in countries where Islam is the state religion appeared in the Middle Ages and remains the main one to this day.
Religião Implícita: culto ao bronzeado
Authors: Trombetta Pino Lucà
Published: March 2019

Partindo do conceito de “religião implícita” tratado por A. Nesti, o artigo aborda um dos principais costumes da sociedade italiana: o culto ao bronzeado. Disseminado pelos meios de comunicação, é oferecido um caminho para se sair da insegurança, tanto por considerar que o bronzeado possua um sentido de salvação quanto por indicar práticas para se obter algum resultado. Argumenta-se que, se esses discursos, oscilando entre o sério e o fútil, obtêm grande audiência, é porque reproduzem, em formas mistificadas, argumentos de natureza religiosa. À medida que o corpo se torna o lugar privilegiado para investimento e sua salvação acaba substituindo a antiga preocupação com a salvação da alma, tudo o que se necessita para melhorá-lo assume o caráter de uma meta final para a qual vale a pena se dedicar a si mesmo e correr o risco.

Background and Purpose: Superficial mycosis is more prevalent in tropical and subtropical countries, such as India. Regarding this, the present study was conducted to determine the epidemiology of superficial mycosis and identify the most common dermatophytic species in this region.
Materials and Methods: For the purpose of the study, a total of 220 skin scraping, nail, and hair root specimens were collected. Direct microscopic examination was performed using potassium hydroxide mount. Additionally, the samples were inoculated onto Sabouraud dextrose agar (SDA) and dermatophyte test medium (DTM). The fungal colony of each isolates was stained with lactophenol cotton blue mount, and observed under microscope for species identification.
Results: Out of 220 isolates, 172 samples, obtained from 108 males 64 females, were positive for skin fungal infections by either KOH mount or culture. Furthermore, 113 isolates were identified as dermatophytes, while 59 samples were found to be non-dermatophytes. Among the dermatophytes isolated from different clinical samples, Trichophyton verrucosum (42/113, 38%) was the most common species, and Tinea corporis was the most common infection (36.2%).
Conclusion: As the findings indicated, dermatophytes had an isolation rate of 78%, which is higher than normal. This can be due to the fact that the majority of the patients were from a rural background (71.7%) with a low socioeconomic status and poor personal hygiene who were exposed to climatic changes.

Climate change is one of the concepts in Namibian languages that does not have any meaning or cannot be easily translated into the native dialects. It is very alien to many Namibians but yet growing in popularity, as it has become a problem that is affecting the economy, natural resources, and tradition and culture of the native people. Climate change is probably going to worsen the dry circumstances that are currently experienced in Southern Africa or Namibia to be specific. If it happens that rainfall does come in good amounts regularly, it will probably erupt in greater power. This will eventually lead to floods and erosion damages in some parts of the country, though these expectations have had very little influence on Namibian policy. Reid et al. (2008) stated that over the past 20 years there has been annual decrease in the Namibian economy of up to 5%, which has been a result of the climate change mostly impacting natural resources in the country. The result was reported using the computable general equilibrium (CGE) model simulations for Namibia. However, this result has negatively impacted the poorest people the most, which is a consequence of decline in wages and employment opportunities, especially for uneducated or unskilled labor in rural areas. It is of utmost importance for Namibia to take initiatives to ensure that most of its policies and activities are environmentally proofed. Namibia should have a unique approach to deal with displaced farmers and farm workers and citizens of such nature by looking into its issues of colonialism. In addition, there is a clear need to mainstream climate change into policies of developing countries like Namibia, because it is the responsibility of these countries to muddle through with climate change impacts and plan for a climate-constrained future.

Published: March 2019

A principal finalidade deste estudo foi realizar o desenvolvimento de confeitos drageados com coberturas comestíveis incorporadas de resíduos do processamentos de frutas (jambolão, limão, tangerina e uvaia) visando a obtenção de confeitos isentos de corantes sintéticos. Os drageados foram avaliados sensorialmente (teste de aceitação) e caracterizados quanto à atividade de água (Aw), umidade, textura instrumental e cor instrumental. Os subprodutos do processamento de frutas se apresentam como um ingrediente alternativo viável na elaboração de coberturas comestíveis via drageamento. Os teores de inclusão são limitados pelas características sensoriais que os mesmos podem atribuir ao produto final. Além disso sua composição interfere diretamente nas características físicas e físico-quimicas do confeito obtido.

Foram aplicados 492 questionários, com o objetivo de avaliar as diferenças no comportamento sexual, conhecimento e vacina contra HPV entre estudantes do 1º e 4º ano dos cursos de medicina, farmácia, enfermagem, fonoaudiologia e educação física. Um total de 47% das mulheres do 1º ano e 13% do 4º ano referiram não ter iniciado atividade sexual vs 11% dos homens do 1º e 4º ano (p<0,001). O uso do condom foi menor entre as mulheres (59%) do que entre os homens (96%)(p<0,001). O conhecimento sobre HPV foi maior entre as mulheres (p<0,05). Mais de 83% das mulheres e 66% dos homens sabiam que o HPV pode causar câncer de colo de útero (p<0,001). Menos de 30% dos estudantes sabiam que o HPV pode causar câncer de vulva/vagina/orofaringe/pênis (p>0,05). Quando comparado o 1º com o 4º ano houve um aumento no conhecimento referente à transmissão sexual do HPV (p<0,05) e maior incidência de 15 a 25 anos (p<0,05). O conhecimento dos alunos aumentou quando comparadas a educação física, enfermagem/fonoaudiologia, farmácia e medicina (ptrend<0,001). Apenas 26% das mulheres e 8% dos homens tomaram a vacina contra HPV (p<0,001). O conhecimento das mulheres referente ao HPV foi maior; já o uso de condom foi mais referido por homens. Quase metade das mulheres ingressaram na universidade sem ter iniciado atividade sexual e a taxa de estudantes vacinados foi muito baixa. O ingresso na universidade parece um momento oportuno para estimular o conhecimento sobre o HPV e a vacinação dos estudantes.

Published: March 2019

A germinação de grãos é um processo eficiente, natural, barato e que altera o perfil de compostos dos brotos de acordo com as condições ambientais em que o grão é germinado. Assim, a influência dos parâmetros de germinação (tempo, temperatura e luminosidade) no teor de compostos fenólicos totais e atividade antioxidante (ABTS e DPPH) dos extratos obtidos a partir de mostarda preta (Brasicca nigra) foi avaliada. As condições de germinação selecionadas e que resultaram em maiores valores de compostos com propriedades antioxidantes foram: a) 48h, 25ºC, luz + escuro; b) 72h, 25ºC, luz e c) 72h, 30ºC, luz + escuro. Os valores máximos de atividade antioxidante obtidos foram 71,8 e 36,95 µmoL TE/g para os métodos ABTS e DPPH, respectivamente.

Published: March 2019

A estruvita é um mineral com elevado potencial para aplicação agrícola como fertilizante por conter macronutrientes como, por exemplo, nitrogênio (N), fósforo (P) e magnésio (Mg). Sua obtenção por meio da precipitação química do lixiviado ou esgoto, utilizando resíduos industriais ricos em óxido de magnésio (MgO), se apresenta como uma alternativa à aplicação de reagentes químicos, diminuindo os custos envolvidos no tratamento, tornando-o mais atrativo.
