Published: September 2024

The College Management System (cms) is a project designed to streamline the support of college data through a user-friendly web-based stage. It points to illuminating extravagant aspects in existing manual frameworks, such as scattered information and moderate get-to. By giving a centralized arrangement for overseeing college records, participation, and scholarly assets, cms essentially improves productivity and availability. The framework incorporates modules that are User Authentication, College Management, faculty, Administrator, Search and Retrieval, and Reports Generation and Communication. Actualized utilizing Vanilla JavaScript and Respond JS, with a backend upheld by Firebase and Google Spreadsheet, cms offers real-time get-to and overhauling of data, guaranteeing information judgment and decreasing redundancy. Preliminary results show a 50% lessening in information recovery times and an 80% increment in information precision compared to manual strategies. By giving real-time get-to and overhauls, cms minimizes holding up times for information recovery and guarantees persistent accessibility of data to users. The system's centralized database decreases information duplication and clashing records, ensuring information rightness and judgment. This venture illustrates the potential of web-based stages in changing data administration inside instructive education.
Automating the handling of soft canes through the factory
Authors: Kent Geoff , Plaza Floren , Lopes Fraga Gabriel Luiz , Lucke Adam , Ryan Martyn , Green Todd , Ryan Kelly
Published: September 2024

In recent years, concerns have been raised that many cane varieties in the development pipeline, particularly in the Central and Southern regions, have fibre quality classified as soft, with some soft enough to cause processing problems in the factory. The main issues have been feeding the cane through the milling train and high bagasse moisture content, causing subsequent combustion issues and low steam pressure at the boiler station. Experiments were carried out at Isis Central Mill to understand and improve the processing of existing soft cane varieties, including the characterisation of the physical properties of prepared cane using a pilot sized shredder (2019), factory milling train experiments (2020) adjusting shredder speed, added water temperature and added water rate, followed in 2021 by additions to the milling train control system to provide automated soft cane processing as well as the installation of an electro-mechanical shredder grid door actuator. This paper describes results obtained during the 2022 crushing season in which the automated control strategy to manage the processing of soft canes was introduced. The control strategy involved adjustments to three parameters: shredder speed, shredder grid door position, and maceration water flow rate. An experiment comparing the results of the automated system to the manual alternative concluded that the operation of the automated soft cane control system assisted in processing the soft cane varieties, although the relatively small amount of soft cane in the cane supply was insufficient to provide definitive results.
Dindarlık ve Suç
Authors: Akpınar İrfan
Published: September 2024

Suçla ilgili tartışma konularından birisi de din-dindarlık ve suç arasındaki ilişkidir. Bu çalışmada, dinin ya da onun fert ve toplumda vücut bulmuş şekli yahut bir tezahürü diyebileceğimiz dindarlığın, suç davranışı üzerinde bir etkisinin olup olmadığı, başka bir deyişle kişiyi suç işlemekten alıkoyup koymadığı kuramsal olarak tartışılacaktır. Çalışmada gerek yerli gerekse yabancı literatürden istifade edilerek, kuramsal olarak dindarlık ile suç arasındaki ilişkiyi ortaya koymak amaçlanmıştır. Ülkemizde bu alanda yapılan çalışma sayısı oldukça sınırlı olduğundan, kuramsal çerçevenin oluşturulmasında ağırlıklı olarak Batı literatüründen faydalanılmıştır. Din ve dindarlık ile suç arasındaki ilişki ise, bu ilişkinin görünümünü daha net ve anlaşılır olarak ortaya koyabilmek için, ağırlıklı olarak Türk toplumu ve İslam dini özelinde ele alınmıştır.

Immunological Implications of Gold Weight Implantation for Lagophthalmos: A Systematic Review
Authors: Iskandar Elza , Krisna Murti  , Irsan Saleh  , Ramzi Amin
Published: September 2024

Background: Gold weight implantation is a well-established surgical intervention for lagophthalmos, a condition characterized by incomplete eyelid closure. While generally safe and effective, gold implants can elicit immune responses, potentially leading to complications. This systematic review aims to comprehensively evaluate the immunological implications of gold weight implantation in lagophthalmos treatment.
Methods: A systematic search of PubMed and ScienceDirect databases was conducted, encompassing studies published from 2000 to June 2024. Keywords included "gold weight implant" and "gold implant AND eyelid." Studies reporting quantitative data on immune responses to gold implants were included. Data extracted included study design, patient demographics, implant characteristics, follow-up duration, complications, and long-term outcomes.
Results: Thirteen studies met the inclusion criteria, encompassing a total of 340 patients (370 eyelids). Reported complications included hypersensitivity reactions (11.9%), lymphoma (0.6%), infection (1.2%), extrusion (8.1%), and nonspecific inflammatory reactions (4.3%). Hypersensitivity reactions were mediated by T-cell and B-cell responses, leading to chronic inflammation. Lymphoma cases highlighted the potential for chronic inflammation to trigger lymphoproliferative disorders. Infections were infrequent but could necessitate implant removal. Extrusion rates varied, influenced by implant size and placement. Nonspecific inflammatory reactions were observed, often requiring implant removal or steroid treatment.
Conclusion: Gold weight implantation can trigger diverse immune responses, ranging from mild inflammation to severe hypersensitivity and lymphoma. Careful patient selection, meticulous surgical technique, and vigilant postoperative monitoring are crucial to minimize complications. Further research is warranted to elucidate the precise mechanisms underlying these immune responses and develop strategies for their prevention and management.

Published: September 2024

The primary purpose of this research is to examine the impact of corporate governance mechanisms, namely, the board of directors’ characteristics (expertise, independence, and directors’ remunerations) and AC characteristics (AC Independence, AC Expertise, and AC Activity) on earnings quality in the Jordanian context. Using the Eviews software to analyze panel data of 94 non-financial listed companies from 2015 to 2021, the results revealed that board expertise, board independence, AC Activity, and AC Expertise have significantly negative effects on EM, which reflects that these mechanisms have a significant and positive influence on earnings quality in Jordanian non-financial companies. This supports the predictions of agency theory, which predicts that active audit committees, expert members on the audit committees, and the experience and independence of the board members expect to enhance the quality of earnings. Conversely, the findings show that AC Independence and directors’ remuneration have an insignificant effect on EM. The results reveal the critical role of board members and audit committees in enhancing the earnings quality of Jordanian companies. This study suggests that Jordanian policymakers need additional support and enhancement regarding CG mechanisms, particularly in Jordan’s transitioning economy, to attract additional investors.

The article discusses the issues of regulating remote labor relations. An analysis of the level of use at the current stage of development of society and labor of such a special type of labor relationship as a remote labor relationship and an analysis of the attitude of employees and employers to remote work was carried out. The application of the rules governing remote legal relations and changes in legislation, including those relating to the dismissal of a remote worker at the initiative of the employer, the transfer of an employee to remote work and the return from such work are analyzed. The various points of view of scientists in the field of labor law on issues directly related to distance labor legislation and the doctrine of distance labor relations were studied and conclusions were drawn. A legal assessment is given of the actions of employers who consider remote work a privilege and use remote work as a measure of coercion against workers. The positions of various courts are considered on the application of norms governing the issues of remote labor relations. Proposals were formulated to consolidate the inadmissibility of using remote work as a measure of influence on workers, both theoretical and specific proposals were formulated to change labor and administrative legislation, and it was proposed to consider the possibility of preparing the necessary clarifications by the responsible authorities on the issues discussed in the article.

Wrestling with Human Diversity: A Comparative Typology Between Racism and Religion
Authors: Kenney Jim
Published: September 2024

The American Civil War was a conflict over the institution of slavery, dominant in the South and threatening to spread to the new territories of the expanding United States. Today, however, the so-called ‘Lost Cause’ movement offers an unapologetic white supremacist view of humankind, while insisting that the war had nothing to do with slavery. In response to persistent American racism, the scholar Ibram X. Kendi suggests a typology of attitudes toward human diversity, culminating in ‘anti-racism’. Juxtaposing Kendi’s model with Alan Race’s well-known typology of responses to religious diversity may clarify and strengthen each of the two.

The impact of elevated temperatures and CO2 on seed germination and early plant morphology: The case of native Fabaceae plants in the UAE
Authors: Debouza Nour ElHouda , Ksiksi Taoufik
Published: September 2024

This study aimed to investigate the impact of elevated temperature and CO2 on three arid UAE plants (Prosopis cineraria, Senna italica, and Tephrosia nubica) and ultimately to identify species that thrive well under these conditions. The plants were grown and monitored under two different environments (Greenhouse conditions, elevated CO2 (eCO2) with 800–1000 ppm). Seed germination percentage (G) and plant morphological characteristics like number of leaves and root/shoot ratio were observed to assess the different plant growth in each treatment. All species displayed a decrease in germination percentage with increasing temperatures, and eCO2 did not improved the germination percentage with these elevated temperatures compared to greenhouse treatment. P. cineraria displayed a significant increase in all morphological characteristics with eCO2 compared to greenhouse treatment (number of leaves: 670, shoot length: 40 cm, root length: 42 cm, shoot weight: 2 g, dry shoot weight: 0.61 g, root weight: 0.53 g, dry root weight: 0.24 g). Overall, S. italica and T. nubica displayed a significant decrease with eCO2.

A growing number of Congenital Heart Disease (CHD) patients will achieve adulthood. We aim to assess the characteristics, clinical course, and outcomes of Adult CHD (ACHD) patients attending the Emergency Department (ED) of a referral center. Seventy-five patients, 35 females (47%) were included. The mean age was 40 (±15) years. 35 patients (47%) had complex defects, and 29 patients (39%) were in NYHA class III-IV. Main symptoms were: dyspnea 22 (29 %), palpitations 20 (27%), fever 8 (11%), syncope 6 (8%), neurologic symptoms 7 (9.3%), chest pain 5 (7%). Heart failure and arrhythmias accounted for 23 (31%) and 20 (27%) of ED diagnoses. Twenty-eight patients (37%) were discharged, one patient died during observation, 32 patients (69 %) were admitted to a cardiology ward, 6 (13%) to the intensive care unit, and 8 (17%) to a non-cardiological ward. At a follow-up of 701 (554-984) days, 10 patients (13%) died, 2 (2.6%) were transplanted, 3 (4%) were listed for a heart transplant, and 30 (41 %) were re-admitted. In multivariate analysis, complex anatomy was weakly associated with readmissions. These preliminary data indicate that attendance of ACHD patients is epidemiologically relevant.

Knjige slovenskih pisateljic pri založbi Belo-modra knjižnica
Authors: Mihurko Poniž Katja
Published: September 2024

The article presents the Belo-modra knjižnica publishing house which was active between the years of 1927 and 1941. The central focus is on the publication of works by women writers in Slovenia. The publishing house published books by Ljuba Prenner, Dora Gruden, Mira Lamut and Marijana Kokalj-Željeznova, while Marja Boršnik edited Izbrano delo Vide Jerajeve (Selected Works by Vida Jeraj) and, in co-operation with Eleonora Kernčeva, edited Izbrano delo Zofke Kvedrove (Selected Works by Zofka Kvedrova). The Belo-modra knjižnica publishing house is not important only because it published Slovene women writers and by doing so bridged the gap which would have otherwise occurred in Slovene literary history should Slovenia have been deprived of their writing. It is also important because it proved, with its numerous other activities, that literature is not a place where only one gender can, or is allowed to, express itself.
Slovenščina kot drugi/tuji jezik in slovensko jezikovno načrtovanje
Authors: Stabej Marko
Published: September 2024

Slovene as a second/foreign language is an important component of the modern Slovene linguistic situation. Slovenia's independence and its integration with the European Union have resulted in the increasing presence of the Slovene language in the international setting, both in the institutional, and non-institutional framework. An increasing number of people need or want to obtain active linguistic competence of Slovene as a foreign language. Language planning in the country has partly taken into account these processes and has offered some efficient solutions in the acquisition and assessment of linguistic competence. What remains open, however, are questions concerning the description and codification of the Slovene language, as well as those related to the consolidation of the status of Slovene as an official European language and the linguistic awareness of its speakers.

Mesto Velikega slovarja tujk v slovenski leksikografiji
Authors: Holz Nanika
Published: September 2024

The article focuses on Veliki slovar tujk (Great Dictionary of Foreign Words), published by the Cankarjeva založba publishing house in 2002. The dictionary of foreign words is not typical as far as all lexicographic traditions are concerned, which is due to several reasons: word formation, phonetics, purism, and, undoubtedly, the important role played by the number of speakers of a certain language and their understanding of what is »foreign« and what »native«. For the purpose of evaluation and the placement of this dictionary within Slovene lexicography, a sample of entries was analysed and compared with the sources, listed in the dictionary as being primary, and also with FIDA, a reference corpus of the Slovene language. The analysis showed that the dictionary contains many terminological expressions, making this dictionary in fact a large terminological dictionary. In general, it is possible to observe after the analysis that such a concept of dictionary-making is no longer up-to-date; a question can also be posed about the purpose of new (revised) editions of old lexicographic reference works, since contemporary users are increasingly demanding and expect lexicographic products of high quality.
Dramatika Rudija Šeliga
Authors: Borovnik Silvija
Published: September 2024

The article discusses the typical features in the dramatic opus of writer Rudi Šeligo. Many of his literary texts and essays were created as a response to the challenges of the time of their creation and against the stifling socialist politics. These works helped in the formation of an independent critical public, and spoke in favour of the establishment and operation of a legal state. As far as drama is concerned, Šeligo was proof of the liveliness, vivacity, and capacity of Slovene playwriting. He belonged to the magical theatre whose aim was to bring to life the oppressed and forgotten human being, the human being of magical-mythic culture. With it, the author pointed to that which is most lacking in this day and age. In his plays Čarovnica iz Zgornje Davče (The Witch from Zgornja Davča, 1977), Lepa Vida (Beautiful Vida, 1977) and Svatba (The Wedding, 1981) the playwright made prominent the multi-faceted symbolic meaning, the so-called non-verbal expressions, i.e. facial language, body-space movement, make-up, lighting, and set effects, convinced that the staging of a play has to surpass the dramatic text. In his plays Ana (1984) and Volčji čas ljubezni (Wolfish Time of Love, 1988) he portrays the abuse of a human being as an individual in the revolution, while in Slovenska savna (The Slovene Sauna, 1987) he writes about the torments of the boring Slovene middle class. His plays Razveza ali sveta sarmatska kri (A Divorce or the Holy Sarmat Blood, 1995) and Kamenje bi zagorelo (The Stones Would Catch Fire, 2000), both linked to the bloody disintegration of the former Yugoslav Republic, are an expression of the writer’s protest against political fanaticism. In all his plays Rudi Šeligo pays special attention to his female characters that remain cheated of their longings.
Besedilni svet Daneta Zajca
Authors: Jarnovič Urška
Published: September 2024

The aim of this article is to show a cognitive and stylistic analysis of poetry written by Dane Zajc. This is a type of analysis focused on textual worlds as cognitive constructs produced as a result of the interaction between the receiver and the text. On the basis of inferences conditioned by the text and the receivers' previous knowledge and experience of the world in which they live, it is possible to deepen and expand comprehension of text formation. In addition, this is an expansion and improvement of linguistic and stylistic analyses.
Jezikovna situacija v Španiji. Šest avtohtonih manjšinskih jezikov
Authors: Magrinyà Domingo Jordi
Published: September 2024

There are at least nine autochthonous languages in Spain: Aragonese, Aranese, Basque, Galician, Castilian or Spanish, Catalonian, Astur-Leonese, the Catalonian sign language and the Spanish sign language. The only official language in the entire territory of present Spain is Castilian. The other languages are awarded with various degrees of public recognition: some share an equal status of the official language with Castilian, while others do not have any formal recognition. The article discusses six of these languages: Aragonese, Aranese, Astur-Leonese, Basque, Catalonian and Galician. A brief insight into the history of these languages is offered, and their social status is described from various points: from the point of demographics, language policy, education, media, various initiatives for language revitalisation, and also from the point of knowledge and relation to language.
Slovenska jezikovna skupnost v Argentini
Authors: Ban Janja , Špelko Tina
Published: September 2024

The article is based on a BA thesis entitled Slovenska jezikovna skupnost v Argentini: (socio)lingvistična analiza (The Slovene Linguistic Community in Argentina: A (Socio)linguistic Analysis) and portrays a contemporary situation of the post-war Slovene emigrant community in Argentina, which has managed, through good organisation and successful operations, to pass Slovene from one generation on to another. Within the historical framework of emigration the article offers an insight into the discussed community and illuminates reasons for the existence and continuity of the community. The article also contains the results of action research and their interpretation; in addition to a more accurate contemporary socio-linguistic situation of the community, the linguistic image of the Slovene spoken by the Argentinean Slovenes is presented.
Južnoslovansko kulturno zbliževanje v berilih za osmo leto šolanja po razpadu Avstro-Ogrske
Authors: Kodre Petra
Published: September 2024

The article deals with cultural reconciliation and a Southern-Slavonic influence on Slovene Reading Books in the 20th century. It is based on the text analysis of motifs and topics, the analysis of the authors’ nationality, and the analysis of non-translated texts in foreign languages. The article reveals that the educational purpose of school in former Yugoslavia was defined as that of statism and of the supranational, while education encouraged Socialist patriotism and glorified the former Yugoslav state. The article claims that it was the political centralisation from Belgrade and the Unitarian politics which influenced education consolidating awareness about national belonging, showing how Socialist patriotism in Yugoslavia contributed to patriotism with its idea of brotherhood and unity. Based on this, the hegemony of the Croatian and Serbian nations, and their political influence can be ascertained. In addition, the article brings an insight into the future, which is based on the awareness that European integration has resulted in internationality, where education aimed at raising national awareness of small nations is even more imperative.

Tipologija ženskih oseb v pripovedni prozi avtorjev druge polovice 19. Stoletja
Authors: Rebol Kotnik Alenka
Published: September 2024

In narrative prose by authors from the second half of the nineteenth century, females can generally be categorised according to their character, function and appearance, into four basic types: the type of a mother, a daughter, a wife or an unwedded partner, and the type of an aunt, a friend, a distant relative, or an unknown woman. For a more accurate and complex presentation of female characters they can be further categorized into various sub-types. Within this typology a woman appears as a two-fold person: on the one hand, the image of a typically unselfish, good, obedient and humble woman, and, on the other hand, an image of a completely different, stubborn, dominant, materialistic, egotistical, and even physically violent woman, by which the author rejects the general, exclusively stereotypical image of the literary female character of the past.
Prispevki slovenskih pripovednic k žanrski podobi proze 19. stoletja
Authors: Mihurko Poniž Katja
Published: September 2024

The article deals with the genre features brought to narrative prose in the 19th century by Luiza Pesjak, Pavlina Pajk and Zofka Kveder. A narratological analysis based on the findings of the narratology of social gender shows that all three of these writers chose approaches that represented innovations in the literature of the time. Luiza Pesjak and Pavlina Pajk selected the genre novel and upgraded it with their own innovations, introducing narrative strategies that had been developed by their contemporaries in other European literatures. Another interesting contribution to the development of genres is represented by the collection of short prose Misterij žene (The Mystery of a Woman) by Zofka Kveder, as with the sketches in this collection the author contributed to the modification of the traditional model of short narrative. The concluding finding of the article is that the authors met with sharp rejection whenever the genre in which they were writing was a privileged genre of a specific group or era, into which they were attempting to introduce innovations that departed from the accepted guidelines of Slovene literature in the 19th century.
Vodnikovo prozno delo
Authors: Bošnjak Blanka
Published: September 2024

For the development of Slovene short prose long example types of genres are more interesting, such as the long form of narrative (narratio), and with Vodnik’s humorous prose, “pergodbe”, we have them in an independent form. Vodnik’s attempts at prose writing in the sense of short narrative prose are primarily the result of the practitioner’s endeavours (with almanacs Velika and Mala pratika), the newspaperman’s endeavours (with Lublanske novice) and narrative endeavours that remained in manuscript (Berilo Greško). In Vodnik’s analysed short narrative forms we find narrative approaches such as the more or less developed story, illustrative and colourful descriptions (including those of the time and place of the events), the attempted characterisation of people, narrator’s commentaries, functional dialogue and humour.

Družbeni, zgodovinski, moralni in pripovedni vidiki Vorančeve proze
Authors: Štuhec Miran
Published: September 2024

The discussion offers an insight into the principal determinants of Prežihov Voranc’s literary opus. With the aid of the short stories Kurjak and Samorastniki, the novel Požganica and the travelogue Gosposvetsko polje it highlights the writer’s literarisation of social and moral issues, his epic breadth and extraordinary subtlety and his carefully considered narration, as well as his farsightedness in the description of national-political conditions in the Carinthia region of Austria.
Ljudska pesem v romanih Prežihovega Voranca Doberdob in Jamnica
Authors: Tucovič Vladka
Published: September 2024

The article represents a reworking of part of broader folklore-literary science research on the intertextual and intermedia connections of Slovene folk music (the texts and melodies of folk songs, their context, folk music making, folk dances, etc.) and artistic prose, and to some extent dramatic texts, from the period between 1930 and 1950, as created by Miško Kranjec, Ivan Potrč, Anton Ingolič, Prežihov Voranc and Ciril Kosmač, with a special emphasis on two novels by Prežihov Voranc, Doberdob (1940) and Jamnica (1945). Methodologically it is supported by the theory of intertextuality that was established in the Slovene sphere by Marko Juvan and applied to the study of folklore by Marjetka Golež Kaučič. In artistic prose texts the Slovene folk music tradition is transformed in two ways: as a co-textual cross-reference of quotation in titles and mottos (genre connection, quotation or variation of a title, motto), on the level of the text world (variation on a theme, borrowing of characters, events and settings), on the level of linguistic expression (empirical quotations and paraphrases) and as so-called “context in context”: the literary space and time represent the context of folksong.
