Comparison of Poems of Majeed Amjad and Sohrab Sepehri
Authors: Dr Vafa Yazdan Manesh  , Samira Gilani
Published: January 2023

Majeed Amjad was the poet of the Urdu Language & Sohrab Sepehri is a Persian Poet. Both have the Concept of Time. Time has become an intellectual aspect in the poetry of Majeed Amjad and Sohrab Sepehri. Both take a philosophical look at Time and finally look at it with mystical eyes. In their poetry, the past, the present, and the future have been summed up, but they capture the present more and make the present the center of the present. It protects the inside and also creates the future. Both believe that there is a journey of time with which man and the universe move. Both poets use new metaphors and symbols related to Time. Their Concept has emerged from the depth of their high imagination. They travel through different eras of Time along with their reader. Their words, diction, imagination, the structure of the poems, and stress and strains are appreciable.

Legal politics, namely as an effort to realize good regulations in accordance with the circumstances and situations at a time. As well as a policy from the state through the authorized bodies to establish the desired regulations, which are expected to be used to express, what is contained in society, and to achieve what is aspired. Diplomas are included in the part of educational instruments; therefore, the national education law also regulates the crime so that it can be charged with two articles (articles listed in the Criminal Code and articles listed in the National Education System Law). So, if the forged is a school diploma, it is more appropriate that what is imposed is an article in the National Education System Law. Indeed, in general it has been regulated in the Criminal Code, but for example the use of fake diplomas is not regulated in the National Education System Law by the Criminal Code with the term authentic letters/deeds being accommodated. The formulation of the problem in this study is how the politics of criminal law against the failure to register candidates for DPR/DPRD in the General Election. The method used is normative legal research. Based on the research results, it is known that the Politics of Criminal Law Against the Failure to Register Candidates for DPR/DPRD in the General Election that law is a political product that views law as a formalization or crystallization of interacting political wills.

Microbes on a chip: How microfluidics can help us better understand and engineer electroactive microbes

EEU is a relatively newly discovered process in microbiology. The Bose research group is bringing an interdisciplinary approach to understanding the molecular mechanisms behind EEU and how it can be engineered to provide potential solutions to the climate crisis. These solutions come from the capacity of some EEU-capable microbes to use chemical energy (chemoautotrophs) or light energy (photoautotrophs) in a process like photosynthesis to convert carbon dioxide (CO2) into biomass. EEU-capable chemoautotrophs and photoautotrophs are quite common in nature and could not only be used to remove CO2 from the environment but also to concurrently produce bioplastics or biofuels through microbial electrosynthesis.

Kernel Tensor Decomposition can improve the drug discovery process

Kernel tensor decomposition and its use in drug discovery for SARS-CoV-2 was vital, however, due to its general method, it has the potential to be used for a wide range of future problems. Through the series of my previous articles (1-5) that target the general audience, I have been avoiding discussing mathematical details that non-expert cannot easily understand. Nevertheless, I discuss these in this article since it is seemingly the last one about my COVD-19 studies. As a researcher of bioinformatics, my main interest is in the mathematical side. Thus avoiding mathematics has already prevented me from explaining well what I am really interested in.

Can dietary interventions help treat children with ADHD?

Lessa Schippers & Jeanette Mostert, departments of Genetics and Psychiatry, Radboudumc Nijmegen, The Netherlands, explore how dietary interventions may have added value to current treatment and reduce medication use for children with ADHD. This is the first time two dietary interventions, an elimination diet, and a strict healthy diet, were compared to standard clinical care in a large group of children with ADHD. The team have shown that a healthy diet may be an effective and feasible additional treatment for children with attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD). Although a minority of children was sufficiently treated with a dietary intervention in the long term, children that started with either dietary intervention used less medication than those that only received standard care and improved overall health, even after they had stopped with the diet. The healthy diet was at least as effective as the elimination diet and was a more feasible option for families.

Tackling the whole-life emissions of the European built environment

World Green Building Council (WorldGBC) has convened ten Europan Green Building Councils to galvanise climate action in the built environment through national and regional decarbonisation roadmaps – a Europe-wide project called #BuildingLife. It focuses not only on the operational emissions of buildings, but also the environmental impact of the manufacturing, transportation, construction, and end-of-life phases of built assets – often called embodied carbon. Now in its second year having been launched in 2021, the project aims to achieve the mix of private sector action and public policy change necessary to tackle the whole-life carbon impact of buildings.
Changes in the fee system for acute care hospitals will contribute to reducing their costs

Changes in the fee system for acute care hospitals will contribute to reducing their costs

Hiroki Konno, Professor of College Economics at Nihon University argues that acute care hospitals in Japan need to restructure their management strategies – to which, these hospitals have been stratified according to hospitalisation fees based on nurse staffing levels. As the medical functions provided by hospitals are no longer viewed as a hierarchy, but as a segregation of functions in the region, a policy of segregation as a fee system for inpatient acute care can desegregate medical functions and can be expected to promote efficiency in the provision of medical care and contribute to reducing costs. This study by Nihon University reviewed the fee system for hospitals and described its impact on thyroid cancer treatment by analysing three policy directions: 1. The "basic" nurse staffing level of acute care hospitals should be 10:1. 2. Although the fee levels for wards of regional packaged care and wards of chronic care are relatively high at present, once the number of wards has been filled, their fees will be reduced and will mainly be based on a graduated contingency fee. 3. Patients admitted to wards of chronic care will be limited to those requiring higher medical treatments, while those requiring lower medical treatments will be transferred to a Nursing Care Medical Clinic.

Prebiotics from algae as a treatment for inflammatory bowel disease

The Algae4IBD project is studying the potential of probiotics and algae-derived prebiotics as a treatment for inflammatory bowel disease. Inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) is a term used to describe a group of autoimmune disorders, including Crohn's disease and ulcerative colitis, which cause long-term inflammation in the gut. Symptoms such as persistent diarrhoea, abdominal pain and rectal bleeding can be distressing and the impact on patient quality of life is often substantial. IBD already affects millions of patients worldwide, and this number is expected to grow significantly in the coming decades. While traditionally a disease of western industrialised nations, IBD is now growing in newly industrialised and developing countries, likely reflecting the widespread adoption of a westernised diet.
Remyelinating versus neuroprotective therapies for multiple sclerosis

Remyelinating versus neuroprotective therapies for multiple sclerosis

Reducing clinical relapses and improving quality of life is at the heart of MS treatment; here, Tara M. DeSilva explores the benefits of remyelinating versus neuroprotective therapies for tackling MS. Clinical relapses in the demyelinating and neurodegenerative disease multiple sclerosis (MS) are characterised by neurological symptoms resulting from damage to the myelin sheath that surrounds axons. This damage is perpetrated by immune cells that extravasate into the central nervous system (CNS), including the brain, spinal cord, and optic nerves and are a key underlying pathogenesis of lesion formation. Current therapies for MS reduce the infiltration of immune cells, thereby reducing clinical relapses and improving quality of life. However, inflammatory lesions in the CNS can occur even during remission leading to "silent" lesions that damage myelin and axons. This may explain why current immunomodulatory therapies are effective early in the disease course but do not prevent long-term progressive disease. Therefore, strategies are being developed to promote direct protection of the axon and recovery of the myelin sheath. These strategies, in combination with immunomodulatory therapies, may help to prevent long-term disease progression and promote recovery in MS.

The WATCH project: Tanycytes in health and disease

In our aging societies, maintaining health and limiting age-related metabolic or cognitive disorders are of primordial importance not only for the well-being of the individual but also from the economic and societal points of view. The Synergy project Well-Aging and the Tanycytic Control of Health (WATCH), funded by the European Research Council (ERC), is a high-impact project conducted by Vincent Prévot, a neuroendocrinologist working for the French national health research institute (Inserm), in Lille, France; Markus Schwaninger, a neurologist at the University of Lübeck, Germany; and Ruben Nogueiras, an expert in molecular metabolism at the University of Santiago de Compostela in Spain. Together, these three teams aim to understand how a small and highly specialized population of brain cells called tanycytes regulate a variety of physiological processes, and the implications of their function or dysfunction for healthy aging.
Corrosion protection for sustainability – watching paint dry

Corrosion protection for sustainability – watching paint dry

Stuart Lyon, AkzoNobel Professor of Corrosion Control, looks at corrosion's cost to industrialised economies and the importance of corrosion protection – where car vehicle bodies suffer from rust perforation within a few years of purchase. Now manufacturers offer anti-perforation warranties for up to 12 years. Corrosion – the deterioration and loss of materials and their functional properties by environmental exposure – remains a significant cost to industrialised economies. Therefore the most practical and effective means of protection is to apply a coating, and the most widely used are paint coatings. Corrosion-protective organic coatings are engineered to optimise application (onto challenging surfaces) and lifetime performance. They comprise many ingredients including functional pigments that chemically inhibit the corrosion process, components that provide desired physical properties including hardness, wetting agents, rheology modifiers to enable correct surface flow from spray or brush application, etc. Overall, high-resolution analytical tools to probe the structure and chemistry of coatings and the interfaces between their constituent parts are being explored in the University of Manchester.

Challenges bringing CB₂R medicine to bedside

Here Drug hunters explain how to overcome pitfalls on the way to CB₂R medicine and therapeutics. Type-2 cannabinoid receptor (CB₂R) is a key element of the endocannabinoid system (ECS) and an important pharmacological target which was referred to as a ‘hidden treasure trove for treating inflammatory diseases' [1]. Preclinical data suggest that activation of this G-protein-coupled receptor (GPCR) holds great potential for treating a plethora of pathological conditions in humans e.g. cardiovascular, gastrointestinal, liver, kidney, lung, neurodegenerative/ neuroinflammatory, skin pathologies, rheumatoid arthritis, endometriosis, and eye diseases [2]. Despite this enormous therapeutic potential, no selective CB₂R agonist has reached the market so far as CB₂R medicine.

Materials for fusion reactors: Containing a star on Earth

Sandy (Alexander) Knowles, the Associate Professor in Nuclear Materials at the University of Birmingham, explores experimental metallurgy research and its structural materials to withstand the extreme temperatures inside nuclear fusion reactors. Fusion Energy provides near limitless energy without generating carbon emissions, or long-live radioactive waste. This entails it can be used for its energy density and small land usage, making it capable of providing stable base-load electricity, making it an ideal solution to our present energy challenges. Companies globally are currently seeking new approaches to fusion energy with development and fast deployment timelines, ultimately seeking to bring fusion to market sooner, potentially before 2040. Representing a ‘moonshot' innovation – with equivalence to the moon landing in terms of the pace and scale of developments needed, this collaborative societal grand challenge of fusion energy is a new opportunity for science, technology, engineering and mathematics (STEM), at all levels.

Robot evolution: Artificial intelligence by artificial evolution

Most people think of evolution as a biological phenomenon that produced Life on Earth, plants, animals, and us, the Homo Sapiens. Within Computer Science, however, there is another view: evolution is seen as a metaphor for problem-solving, in particular, as a special approach to optimization, working with a ‘population' of solutions and improving them over time through repeated selection-reproduction cycles. This is the research of A.E. Eiben, the Professor of Computational Intelligence at Vrije Universiteit Amsterdam. He notes that the vision of robot evolution foresees a radically new robotic technology where robots can reproduce, evolve, and learn. Robot evolution and development require significant efforts from highly trained experts which is not scalable. This world has an increasing need for novel algorithmic approaches and research tools to explore the space of bodies and brains together and solve the design problem (good body) and the control problem (good brain).In his team, he is discovering new methods needed to tackle complex environments without good models, not only simple, well-known conditions, such as, factories or living rooms.

The value of adult relationships in preventing youth suicide attempts 

Suicide is the third leading killer of teens in the U.S., after unintentional injury (including drug overdose) and homicide, and suicide death rates have increased in this age group relatively steadily for 20 years (1). In 2019, the Center for Disease Control and Prevention's (CDC) biennial Youth Risk Behavior Survey (YRBS) indicated that in the previous year, suicide was attempted by 8.9% of high school (HS) students. However, the percentage varied widely by race and ethnicity: American Indian or Alaska Native (AI/AN) 25.5%; Asian 7.7%; Black or African American (AfAmer) 11.8%; Hispanic or Latino (Hisp) 8.9%, White 7.9%, and multiple races 12.9% (2). Here Associate Professor Lynne Fullerton, PhD, University of New Mexico Health Sciences Center, examines the results of a recent study exploring the link between positive adult relationships and the impact on youth suicide attempt resilience.

The haplogroup gap: The ticking time bomb of cardiometabolic disease in developing nations

Cardiometabolic disease (CMD) greatly increases an individual's risk for developing cardiovascular disease (CVD) and/or Type II diabetes (2), with the former being a leading cause of death worldwide. Decades of research efforts have significantly improved our understanding of cardiometabolic disease as a multifactorial ‘whole-body' pathology caused not only by common ‘modifiable' risk factors (such as exercise and dietary choices), but also increased inflammation within our muscles and fat, as well as inherited genetic risk. The genetic aspect of cardiometabolic disease has proven vexing to the medical and research communities – hundreds of genes have been associated with the hallmarks of CMD, yet none occur at a frequency that would explain the explosion in obesity and CMD rates documented worldwide over the past 25 years.

The Standard Model (SM) and the goal of force unification

The unification of gravitational, Strong and Weak Forces has been a long-sought goal [1-3]. In general, force unification refers to the idea that it is possible to view all of the forces of nature as manifestations of one single, all-encompassing force. Today, within the context of the Standard Model (SM) of elementary particles, [7] scientists seek to unify Gravity with the Strong force under a Grand Unified Theory which binds quarks together and is responsible for the stability of atomic nuclei. These efforts have not been successful yet, most likely because the SM neglects neutrinos [8,9], gravity [4], special relativity [10] and quantum mechanics [11].

Low Carbon Timber® - European best practice in climate-friendly chains

The current reports of the IPCC on climate change are alarming and show that the development is not only far worse than feared but also that the efforts of the global community and the European Union must be drastically intensified to avert an existential threat to the environment, the economy, and the people. A considerable yet untapped reduction potential lies in a reduction of transport in the supply chains. With 22%, transport is the second highest cause of European greenhouse gas emissions, ahead of the "buildings" and "agriculture" sectors. Against this background, the avoidance of unnecessary transport is an essential instrument for reducing emissions in the transport sector. The transnational initiative and environmental label HOLZ VON HIER®, or LOW CARBON TIMBER® in non-German-speaking countries, represents a European best practice example that can be used directly by municipalities, companies, planners, and customers to make an immediate contribution to climate protection.

Credit and collateral: How central banks can spur a greening of finance

Central banks are increasingly called upon to take an active role in greening our financial system. Currently, the financial system is effectively funding temperature increases of over three degrees centigrade, so, Jakob Vestergaard, an Associate Professor at Roskilde University looks at how can central banks promote the greening of finance. It has been estimated that if global warming is to be limited to 1.5 degrees, global emissions will need to reach net- zero by 2050. A key objective of the Paris Agreement was to make financial flows consistent with a pathway towards low carbon emissions, but financial flows are not on that path at all. By deploying monetary policy to create relative incentives that favour ownership of ‘green' over ‘dirty' assets, allowing central banks to influence the investment decisions of private financial institutions, incentives towards green technology adoption and development of lower carbon-emission business models are being sought out. The greening of finance by the sector by governments and international organizations is an urgent necessity, which has only had modest progress so far.

Genetics and machine learning can improve blood transfusion outcomes

The availability of blood for blood transfusion support is critical for the delivery of medical care. When a person donates blood, it is separated into different components: red cells, platelets, white cells and plasma. Better blood transfusion outcomes for patients and better protection of the NHS blood supply can be achieved with machine learning, argue Drs Samuel McDermott, Nicholas Gleadall and Sara Trompeter. Red cell transfusion is used to treat patients who have lost red cells due to trauma or surgery or who are unable to make healthy red cells. To support over 500,000 transfusions annually, NHSBT issues 1.4 million blood units collected from 800,000 donors.

Long Covid lessons: beyond winter and the COVID pandemic

Paying attention to Long Covid lessons is key, states Amitava Banerjee, Professor of Clinical Data Science and Honorary Consultant Cardiologist at University College London, and chief investigator of the STIMULATE-ICP programme. The long-term consequences of COVID-19 have affected an estimated 1.9 million people with over 12 weeks of symptoms after infection with SARS-CoV-2 (COVID). Of these people, 1.2 million have had symptoms for at least one year and 594,000 for at least two years. Looking at the lessons which Long Covid has already provided for other long-term conditions and pandemics, Long Covid offers the opportunity for a system reset of research, practice and public health approaches to chronic diseases, pandemic preparedness and care delivery. Whether in terms of investigation strategies, ways of evaluating drugs, big data analyses using routine health records or methods to reduce inequalities, STIMULATE-ICP and other large-scale efforts to understand and better manage Long Covid can inform both science and care. Findings from Long Covid lessons may well have an application to the way we work in other disease areas.

In the competitive world that we are living in, upgrading our skills and knowledge is very much relevant. Despite pandemic restrictions, teachers still strive to adopt a new normal education through different webinar series. This study aimed to bridge the gap between the importance of different institutions' webinars and their utilization being extended by the teachers. This study used a quantitative type of research to quantify and analyze the difference between the extent of utilization of teachers on their learning derived from webinars attended during the new normal and the profile of the respondents. Respondents of this study were 30 teaching personnel from Sto. Domingo Elementary School. The result of the study showed that teachers always utilized their learning derived from the webinars they attended in teaching strategy, assessment of learning, and school operation; however, they often utilized their learning in instructional materials preparation. It also showed that there is no significant difference between the profile of the respondents and their extent of utilization of learning derived from webinars they attended.
Pravna priroda odgovornosti organizatora sportskih priredbi

Published: January 2023

This paper provides the analysis of the legal nature of liabilityof organizer of sporting events . The Law on Sports explicitly prescribes the obligations of organizers of sporting events which are aimed at maintaining appropriate safety standards during sporting events and combating illegal and inappropriate behavior that is contrary to the goal and social purpose of sporting events. If non-compliance with these obligations causes damage to athletes, spectators, other participants or third parties, the Law on Sports refers to the application of general rules on liability contained in the Law on Obligations. The rules referred to in the Law on Sports regulate the liability of organizers of large gatherings contained in Article 181, which represents a special type of liability regardless of the fault of the organizer. Regulating the responsibility of the organizer of gathering as a special type of non-contractual, objective liability for damage, the legislator accepted the position that the gathering of a large number of people indoors or outdoors itself is a state of increased danger, for which it is justified to impose an obligation to its organizer to compensate for such damage regardless of his guilt. However, as the Law on Sports provides for liability of the organizer of sporting events due to non-compliance with its obligations, it may be concluded that the organizer may be released from liability by providing a proof that he has fulfilled his legal obligations. The author of this paper therefore deals with the analysis of the rules on the liability of organizers of a sporting events and the rules on the liability of the organizers of the large gatherings from the Law on Obligations in order to point out certain inconsistenciesand unclarities in current legal framework.

Contamination by heavy metals is a significant concern for the environment owing to their cytotoxicity, endurance, biosorption, as well as biomineralization. Our ecosystem may be contaminated by heavy metals from a multitude of both anthropogenic and natural sources. The major anthropogenic sources of heavy metals are commercial, industrial and agricultural processes; the utilization of fossil fuels and gasoline; waste incinerators; mineral extraction; volcanic eruptions; and the degradation of metal-bearing rocks, the use of chemical inputs in tanneries, textiles, and cut flower industries among many other things. These heavy metals mobility into the water bodies affects the physicochemical properties of the water, endangering aquatic species. When a fish consumes food that has accumulated metals, the gastrointestinal organs, outer skin, and gills are indeed the primary entry points for toxic metals. The most frequent heavy metal pollutants that severely damage fish and have an impact on human health include aluminium, cadmium, chromium, nickel, arsenic, copper, mercury, lead, and zinc. These pollutants were also characterized as systemic toxicants. At modest levels of exposure, each of these heavy metals induces organ dysfunction, and the US Environmental Protection Agency and the International Agency for Research on Cancer have characterized them as oncogenic. The key chemical process underlying metal cytotoxicity is the production of peroxidation. Stress impairs regenerative capacity, damages tissues or organs, lowers the immune response, and results in morphological defects. The abundance of protein content found in fish, along with its high vitamin and fatty acid omega-3 content encourages people to eat fish as a main source of nutrients. As a result, built-up toxic substances in fish muscles are easily transferred to human’s biotransformation, where they have adverse effects that hasten the development of many disorders. As a result, it's indeed vital to explore specific causes of toxic metals as well as associated hazardous impact on fish production in order to implement the laws and legislation pertaining to their conservation in the water habitats, as well as to preserve human existence. The explanations addressed in this research are numerous and varied. For such grounds, this study was produced to enhance our knowledge of heavy metals involvement inside the ecosystem, hazardous mechanisms, including detrimental consequences in fishes.

A Field study entitled ‘Effect of Growth Regulator on Growth and Yield of Button Rose’ was carried out in a farmer's field near Hosur, Krishnagiri district during 2020-21. The experiment conducted in a randomized block design with three replication. i.e., GA3, NAA, and Tricontanal, along with amino acid and salicylic acid, were also applied with various different combinations, sprayed 30 and 45 days after pruning.The results revealed that Foliar application of (T7) 150 ppm GA3+ salicylic acid consistently registered the highest consistently registered the maximum plant height (110.36), plant spread (43.80 ), number of laterals plant-1 (46.80), number of leaves per plant (181.30), leaf area (42.60) and Chlorophyll (1.65)such as the number of flowers plant-1 day (1.61), days taken for first flowering (45.76) flower diameter (5.83), single flower weight (3.62), flower yield plant-1 day (5.83) was also recorded as the highest in the above treatment. It was followed by (T8), which recorded nest best on-bar values in these parameters. By considering the yield parameters it can be concluded that T7 - GA3 @ 150ppm + Salicylic Acid @ 100ppm was found to have the best effect on growth, flowering and yield parameters of button rose cultivated in open field condition.

A raíz del retorno a las aulas, nuevas manifestaciones de comportamiento se presentan en el salón de clases, alumnos retraídos, muy reservados para participar, sin ánimo para proponer, además, con muy poca disponibilidad para relacionarse y adaptarse al trabajo colaborativo, jóvenes que en la primera oportunidad buscan refugiarse en el celular abstrayéndose del mundo exterior que los rodea; pero quizá el efecto de mayor notoriedad producto de este evento extraordinario, es que un gran porcentaje de ellos han abandonado la disciplina de tomar notas y apuntes limitándose a grabar las clases y tomar fotografías de los pintarrones con la intención de estudiarlos más tarde, corriendo el riesgo de abstraerse en un efecto de procrastinación en eventos enajenantes e irrelevantes o de poco impacto escolar. A raíz de la pandemia SAR-COVID 19 los estudiantes debieron mantenerse en un recogimiento obligado y a consecuencia se vieron imposibilitados de conocer el objeto de aprendizaje en el salón en clase, por lo que en su mayoría tuvieron que abordarlo de forma somera o de manera superficial, otros tantos consultaron tutoriales y en el peor de los casos los alumnos fueron empujado a desarrollar un aprendizaje autodidacta para el cual no se encontraban preparados, ahora nuevamente en el mesabanco del salón de clases los estudiantes en un estado límbico buscan readaptarse a una situación presencial con prácticas de la comodidad virtual.

Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk menganalisis pengaruh Pendapatan Asli Daerah (PAD), Dana Bagi Hasil (DBH), Jumlah Penduduk (JP) terhadap Belanja Daerah (BD) kabupaten/kota di Provinsi Kalimantan Barat. Populasi dari penelitian ini yakni delapan kabupaten di Provinsi Kalimantan Barat. Sedangkan untuk penentuan sampel menggunakan metode purposive sampling. Teknik analisis data yang digunakan adalah analisis regresi data panel. Berdasarkan hasil analisis yang telah dilakukan, dapat ditarik kesimpulan bahwa secara parsial pendapatan asli daerah tidak berpengaruh signifikan terhadap belanja daerah. Sedangkan jumlah penduduk secara parsial berpengaruh positif dan signifikan terhadap belanja daerah. Kemudian secara simultan pendapatan asli daerah, dana bagi hasil dan jumlah penduduk berpengaruh signifikan terhadap belanja daerah. Penelitian ini memberikan implikasi bahwa pemerintah daerah khususnya Provinsi Kalimantan Barat agar lebih memaksimalkan potensi sumber daya yang ada guna meningkatkan pemberdayaan dan kesejahteraan penduduk sehingga dapat meningkatkan penerimaan daerah dan mengurangi ketergantungan dana transfer dari pemerintah pusat.
