On the Economic Model of Preservation of the USSR Unclaimed by the Soviet and Post-Soviet Authorities
Authors: Naumov Anatoliy
Published: September 2024

This article is prepared in the context of studying the reasons why the USSR ceased to exist. It also examines the questions of whether there was an economic possibility of preserving the Soviet state at that time, as opposed to the well-known explanations of a conspiracy nature. As an alternative, the author analyzes the unclaimed by Soviet and post-Soviet authorities model of the gold miner V. Tumanov, who created the largest mining companies in the country, which, in addition to gold mining, laid thousands of kilometers of roads, created industrial facilities, airfields, and built residential settlements in the taiga. The reasons for the government’s lack of demand for such a model, which contradicts the voucher privatization of “national” socialist property adopted at that time, are also analyzed. The problem is also being discussed in connection with the radically changed geopolitical conditions in the world. The general methodological basis of the study was the historical and legal method of legal doctrine, which involves the study and research (including in the theory of criminal law) of criminal law institutions, categories and norms in their historical development, as well as the dialectical method of cognition of phenomena, which involves their study in constant development, close interrelation and interdependence. In addition, general scientific (sociological-statistical, analysis, synthesis, induction, deduction) and private scientific (formal-logical, system-structural) methods were used.

Published: September 2024

This article presents an assessment of the implementation of flipped classrooms and the use of Edpuzzle for this purpose. Four elementary schools engaging in the School Transformation Programme 2025 (TS25) across various subject areas were included in the study. As part of this programme, teachers received training in pedagogical and technological knowledge. A mixed-methods design was employed to collect and analyse both quantitative and qualitative data. The findings indicate that teachers demonstrated a strong understanding of the pupil-centred concept in the flipped classroom model. However, while teachers universally used Edpuzzle for pre-class activities, there is a need for them to fully leverage its features and enhance creativity to develop more engaging video quizzes.
Converting Agro-Ecological Waste into Potential Substrates for Cultivation of P.ostreatus
Authors: Jia Hui Lim , Subramaniam Geetha , Sanusi Nabil , Wan Hee Cheng , Ling Shing Wong
Published: September 2024

Pleurotus ostreatus is an edible mushroom which is rich in proteins, carbohydrates, vitamins, minerals and lipids, making it a highly beneficial food source. Commercial cultivation of P. ostreatus is mostly done on sawdust, however, there is a potential shortage of sawdust due to a shift of rubber plantations to more profitable oil palm plantations in Malaysia. Therefore, alternative substrates should be sourced, preferably from agricultural waste. Cultivation of P. ostreatus on agricultural waste that are abundant in Malaysia, namely Imperata cylindrica, was studied in terms of cultivation parameters and nutritional value. The sterilized substrates were treated and inoculated with spawn of P. ostreatus before incubation for colonization and fruiting of the mushrooms. The experiment was conducted in triplicates for each substrate. I. cylindrica had a faster mycelial growth compared to sawdust which was used as a control. After complete colonization, two flushes of matured fruiting bodies were harvested from both sawdust and I. cylindrica, where P. ostreatus cultivated on I. cylindrica took a shorter duration (58 days). Although I. cylindrica had better mycelial growth, however a lower yield performance and biological efficiency were observed with this substrate compared to sawdust. However, the two different substrates had similar effects on the nutritional values of P. ostreatus in terms of the moisture, total carbohydrates, protein, lipids and metabolised energy. Based on the results obtained, I. cylindrica was found to be a potential alternative substrate for P. ostreatus cultivation as no significant differences were observed on the total yield and nutritional values between substrates. Nevertheless, further studies on the optimization of commercial P. ostreatus production using I. cylindrica are required.
The Effects of Top-Down Management on Law Enforcement Information and Intelligence Sharing: A Qualitative Phenomenological Study
Authors: Mrgan Alison
Published: September 2024

The problem addressed in this study is that currently published research has not explored the lived experiences of local-level law enforcement regarding the effectiveness of top-down, federal level management support to information sharing on homeland security threats. Despite the criticality of law enforcement intelligence in the protection of homeland security, law enforcement must surmount greater challenges than the nationally focused intelligence community in conducting information sharing, including privacy stipulations on U.S. persons information and a lack of consistent resources to unify local law enforcement units nation-wide (Brown, 2017; Hollywood et al., 2015; National Archives and Records Administration, 1981). This qualitative phenomenological study explored the research question “What are the lived experiences of local-level law enforcement regarding the effectiveness of top-down, federal level management support to information sharing on homeland security threats?” The purpose of this research was to study the way local-level law enforcement perceive support from top-down, federal level leadership in support of information sharing on homeland security threats, by utilizing semi-structured interview data from law enforcement officials with over ten years of experience. This study identified six themes through the collected data, including communication, connecting the dots, complexity of unifying local agencies, budget, clearances and classifications, and genuine care for protecting the public. These themes show that local level law enforcement perceives weaknesses in the way federal management supports local law enforcement information sharing for homeland security threats, and improvements are needed to ensure critical threat information is not overlooked.

Authors: Kim Yong-min , Byeon Jangseop
Published: September 2024

This study aims to estimate the economic ripple effect on the regional economy with the designated expansion of the cultural industry investment promotion zone of Gwangju Metropolitan City. The economic ripple effect resulting from such expansions, including the existing investment plan and the sales of the cultural industries, was analyzed. Additionally, from the investment promotion zone in the Asia Culture Center district, the production, added-value, and employment-inducing effects were observed. The study showed that when expanding the investment promotion zone, the production-inducing effect is 406,246 million won, the added value causing the effect is 180,404 million won, and the employment-generating effect was 5,467 people. However, compared to the public sector investment, private sector investment was lower. Furthermore, we found that the economic ripple effect was relatively low in the content sector of the cultural industry, a more productive industrial sector. The Cultural Industry Investment Promotion Zone in Gwangju is necessary to revitalize the region's local economy and cultural industry. However, to revitalize the investment promotion districts, more sensible policies will be needed to garner further private investment and increase sales of private companies.

Published: September 2024

Background: Thyroid lesions are frequently evaluated using fine-needle aspiration cytology (FNAC) and thyroid function tests (TFTs). However, the correlation between these diagnostic methods remains unclear.Objective: To assess the correlation between FNAC findings and TFT profiles (TSH, T3, and T4) in thyroid lesion management in a Pakistani patient population.Methods: This descriptive cross-sectional study included 120 patients (60 males, 60 females) from Indus Hospital, Multan. FNAC was performed on thyroid nodules, and serum T3, T4, and TSH levels were measured using the ELISA technique. FNAC results were classified according to the Bethesda System. Data were analyzed using SPSS version 25, with a significance level set at 0.05.Results: Benign Follicular Nodule (BFN) was the most common FNAC diagnosis (51.3%), followed by Lymphocytic Thyroiditis (24.8%). Subclinical hypothyroidism was observed in 4.16% of LT cases, while primary hypothyroidism was most prevalent in LT cases (10.8%). No significant correlation was found between FNAC diagnoses and TFT profiles.Conclusion: FNAC and TFTs should be used concurrently for comprehensive thyroid lesion management, as no significant correlation exists between these two diagnostic methods.

Published: September 2024

Background: Atrial fibrillation (AF) increases the risk of stroke and systemic embolism, necessitating anticoagulation therapy. Traditional vitamin K antagonists (VKAs) like warfarin have limitations, prompting the use of novel oral anticoagulants (NOACs), which offer advantages like predictable dosing and fewer interactions.Objective: To compare the effectiveness and safety of NOACs versus VKAs in AF patients.Methods: A comprehensive literature search was conducted across PubMed, Cochrane CENTRAL, EMBASE, Web of Science, and Scopus to identify randomized controlled trials (RCTs) and observational studies published between 2014 and 2024. Data were synthesized using a random-effects model, with subgroup analyses based on patient characteristics. The primary outcomes included stroke, systemic embolism, and major bleeding.Results: A total of 42 studies involving approximately 250,000 patients met the inclusion criteria. NOACs reduced the risk of stroke and systemic embolism by 19% (RR 0.81, 95% CI 0.75-0.87) and major bleeding by 16% (RR 0.84, 95% CI 0.79-0.90) compared to VKAs. NOACs also halved the risk of intracranial hemorrhage (RR 0.50, 95% CI 0.42-0.59).Conclusion: NOACs offer comparable or superior efficacy in stroke prevention with a better safety profile than VKAs, supporting their broader adoption in clinical practice for AF patients.
Lunar-Derived Propellants for Fueling Mars-Bound Spacecraft in Cis-Lunar Space
Authors: Donald Rapp
Published: September 2024

The conventional method to send payloads to Mars is by direct trans-Mars injection (TMI) from LEO. NASA is considering an alternative of fueling large Mars-bound cargo transfer vehicles in cis-lunar space with propellants derived from the Moon by in situ propellant production (ISPP) prior to trans-Mars injection from cis-lunar space. A large team of investigators developed an Evolvable Lunar Campaign (ELC) that defined its strategic objective as follows: "The ELC strategic objective is commercial mining of propellant from lunar poles where it will be transported to lunar orbit to be used by NASA to send humans to Mars." Unfortunately, sending Mars-bound vehicles to cis-lunar space prior to trans-Mars injection saves little mass in LEO, unnecessarily includes lunar ISPP, which is costly, complex, and risky, and at the bottom line, has no benefits. The problem is that the amount of propellant needed to go from LEO to cis-lunar space is roughly comparable to the amount of propellant used for direct TMI from LEO, so the lunar-derived propellants only offset a small amount of propellant used to augment Mars Orbit Insertion and Entry, Descent, and Landing, and the amount of propellant required in LEO is almost the same in both cases. The initial mass in low Earth orbit (IMLEO) is not reduced much by utilizing lunar ISPP. At the bottom line, sending Mars-bound MCTV to cis-lunar space adds complexity, cost, and risk and provides essentially no benefits.

Published: September 2024

Natural radioisotopes are present in all ceramic products used in building construction at varying rates. The primary source of outdoor radiation that residents of homes or workplaces are exposed to is these radioisotopes. Determining the radiation levels of ceramic items used in buildings is crucial. In this investigation, Thallium doped sodium iodide detector NaI(Ti) was used to measure the natural radioactivity levels (226Ra, 232Th, and 40K) in twelve ceramic sanitary ware products manufactured in India, China and Uganda imported and used in Kenya. For the studied samples, the average activity concentrations of 226Ra, 232Th, and 40K radionuclides were 19.5±0.99Bq/kg, 89.75±4.49Bq/kg and 405.75±20.29Bq/kg for 226Ra, 232Th and 40K respectively. With the exception of the average 232Th concentration of studied samples, these results are lower than the global average values (50, 50, and 500 Bq/kg).Values for radium equivalent activity (Raeq), gamma index (Iγ), external hazard index (Hex), internal hazard index (HIn), absorbed dose rate (ADR), annual effective dose (AED), and excess lifetime cancer risk (ELCR) were also computed in order to assess the radiological risks resulting from naturally occurring radionuclides of the ceramic sanitary ware samples under examination. The mean of the radioactive hazard parameters (Raeq, Iγ, Hex, HIn ,D, and AEDE,) computed for every sample of ceramic sanitary equipment was discovered to be below the upper bounds suggested by global organization safe for ELCR which registered slightly higher values

This article discusses the importance of witness testimony in the criminal justice process in Indonesia, particularly in cases of violent theft. This research focuses on the decision of the Sumbawa Besar District Court Number: 142/Pid.B/2023/PN.Sbw. The method used is normative legal research, which analyzes primary and secondary legal documents to understand how testimony is used in court despite the absence of the victim. This study finds that witness testimony is crucial in proving criminal acts. However, in this case, most of the testimony provided was testimonium de auditu, based on hearing from others rather than direct experience. This raises issues concerning the validity of such testimony as legitimate evidence. The conclusion of this research indicates that although witness testimony is important, caution must be exercised in assessing its validity, especially when the testimony does not originate from the direct experience of the witness. This is important to ensure a fair trial process in accordance with applicable legal principles.

The Welhausen group teaches that eschatology is a concept that first appeared before the current post-exilic era. Many Bible scholars admit that the concept of God is closely related to the history of the salvation of the Israelites and gives them eschatological hope. The vision of eschatology in the Old Testament is a unique phenomenon that occurred in the Israeli nation and is not found outside of Israel because eschatology did not appear in religious communities that doubted God's guidance. Eschatology is the religious belief of the Israeli people which grew from their faith in God who provided salvation for their people

Religious communities like Indonesia often discuss religious issues. Determining the Eid al-Adha holiday in 2022 is one of the issues that is receiving attention. As is known, the Indonesian government determines the Eid al-Adha holiday in two ways: rukyat and reckoning. On the Instagram account @kemenag_ri, the Ministry of Religion of the Republic of Indonesia held an Isbat Session Teleconference on June 29 2022, and the results showed that the date set on the calendar had to be changed from July 9 2022 to July 10 2022. Instagram users provided this decision directly. This shows that the religious community has participated and there is agreement in handling the results of the Isbat Session. As an effort to explore the interactions that exist within religious communities, this research uses netnography techniques.

This study aims to analyze law enforcement efforts against under-aged marriages in Indonesia, identify factors that cause under-aged marriages in Indonesia, and find out the implications of law enforcement efforts against under-aged marriages on child birth certificate registration. The research method used in this article is normative legal research which is analyzed qualitatively with a statutory approach and a case approach. The results of this study show that marriages that are only carried out based on religious law or beliefs, without being officially registered, are legal in religion, but not in the state. Factors that cause underhanded marriages include economic factors, social factors, psychological factors, and religious factors. The legal consequences caused by underhand marriages are detrimental to women and children resulting from these underhand marriages, one of which is difficulty in managing the registration of children's birth certificates. This study concludes that siri marriage/underhand marriage is recognized as religiously valid in Indonesia, but has no legal force because it is not registered at the KUA/Civil Registry in accordance with Law No. 1 of 1974. As a result, the marriage has no legal consequences for the couple and their children.

Implementation of Klampid New Generation (KNG) as an innovation in population administration services in the city of Surabaya. KNG is an online website that facilitates the management of population documents online, such as ID cards, family cards, birth certificates, and others. Through the Internship and Independent Study Certificate (MSIB) program, researchers were directly involved as Population Administration Service Assistants at the Surabaya City Village Office. Observations and active participation were carried out to collect primary data from village officials and the community. The research results show that although KNG is intended to facilitate independent document management, many residents still prefer to use village office services. This is due to a lack of socialization and public understanding about the use of KNG. In addition, there are also obstacles such as limited facilities and infrastructure in the village office that can hinder service performance. This research recommends the need for more intensive socialization and assistance to the community, as well as improving facilities at the village office to optimize the implementation of KNG in creating better population administration order in the city of Surabaya.

Las enfermedades infecciosas adquirieron importancia cuando los seres humanos empezaron a habitar en grandes centros urbanos; cuando los brotes de una enfermedad se empezaron a registrar cobraron importancia histórica. Un número importante de enfermedades han demostrado ciertas similitudes o paralelismos a lo largo de la historia; algunos de estos patrones pueden explicarse por movimientos políticos y sociales, lo cual hace posible que las grandes pandemias tengan un patrón de repetición.

Background: Dancers undergo extensive training, resulting in enhanced lower extremity muscle function, flexibility, and stability compared to the general population. However, research on joint loading mechanisms in professional dancers during walking is limited. Objective: This study aimed to investigate the gait characteristics of professional dancers and compare them with non-dancers from a biomechanical perspective. Methods: A comparative gait analysis was performed on 30 dancers (10 each of modern, ballet, and Korean dance) and 10 non-dancers. The study assessed peak joint moment, peak joint power, and joint work at the knee and ankle joints while walking on a flat surface. Results: Ballet group showed longer step cycles (1.30 ± 0.06 s), whereas modern group had shorter cycles (1.11 ± 0.07 s) but higher walking speeds (1.07 ± 0.04 s). Ballet group also had a longer stance phase (64.53% ± 3.46%), while Korean (41.53% ± 4.66%) and modern (41.93% ± 2.95%) groups had larger swing phases. Modern group displayed significantly higher negative ankle joint work (−0.059 ± 0.022 J/kg), ballet (1.49 ± 0.11 Nm/kg) and Korean group (1.53 ± 0.41 Nm/kg) showed higher peak knee joint moments compared to normal group. Conclusion: These findings highlight the distinct gait patterns of dancers, with ballet and Korean dancers showing greater knee joint loading and modern dancers exhibiting unique ankle joint dynamics. Tailored rehabilitation and injury prevention strategies are crucial for their long-term health and performance sustainability.

There have been significant advancements in the designs of processors and the tools used to produce and modify them. The issues related to using wall, dark silicon, and hardware reconfiguration along with code change have motivated progress in this area. These factorsare crucial for microprocessor-based electronic projects and products that need significant, real-time, and mobile computational power in today's world. Efforts have also been madetolower the communication overhead in key areas of code through the use of specializedhardware and significantly decrease the fetch decode cycle. Recent studies have demonstratedthat addressing both types of communication delays and addressing the issue of darksiliconcan enhance power efficiency by 7 to 1000 times.
SERVIÇO SOCIAL – A HEGEMONIA DO PENSAMENTO CRÍTICO-DIALÉTICO POSTA À PROVA
Authors: Dehon de Souza Thiago
Published: September 2024

Este artigo tem como objetivo analisar os desafios para a formação crítico-dialética em Serviço Social nos tempos de crise estrutural do capital e ambiência pós moderna. A história do Serviço Social passa por correntes conservadoras e modernas até chegar na intenção de ruptura e o diálogo com o marxismo. A pós-modernidade busca resgatar valores conservadores, modernos e anti-modernos, para criar uma formação profissional que atenda aos interesses do capital em crise estrutural. A pós modernidade, ao questionar as metanarrativas busca na verdade questionar o uso do pensamento marxista nos dias atuais. No serviço social busca criar um perfil profissional que se forme sob o signo do pragmatismo, da utilidade e funcionalidade. A metodologia utilizada é a leitura estrutural, tendo também a categoria totalidade como horizonte metodológico.
