Desastres e Gênero: a natureza da vulnerabilidade no Sul de Santa Catarina (1974-2004)
Authors: Lopes Alfredo Ricardo Silva , Passamani Guilherme Rodrigues
Published: February 2021

Os Desastres Socioambientais que ocorreram no Sul de Santa Catarina (Brasil) entre 1974 e 2004 são compreendidos neste trabalho como acontecimentos totalizantes, pois neles se desenrolam todas as dimensões da formação da estrutura social. Desta forma, as desigualdades de gênero são avaliadas nos momentos em que a sensação de normalidade da vida é suspensa. A crença da suspensão da normalidade pôde ser reavaliada neste trabalho, pois percebeu-se que antes, durante e após os desastres a interação social e ambiental se ampara nos arranjos sociais e construções culturais previamente estabelecidos. Assim, as vulnerabilidades inerentes aos lugares sociais são potencializadas no contexto dos desastres.
A Região Metropolitana de Florianópolis embaixo d’água: o desastre de dezembro de 1995 nas páginas do jornal O Estado
Authors: Fagundes Luís Guilherme
Published: February 2021

Apesar de Santa Catarina ser reconhecida na mídia nacional como um estado onde ocorrem grandes desastres socioambientais, geralmente aqueles provocados por inundações são relacionados apenas à mesorregião do Vale do Itajaí, desconsiderando o significativo histórico de desastres que possuem as demais regiões. Entendemos os desastres como acontecimentos complexos, que reúnem em si dimensões naturais, sociais e culturais. Dessa forma, neste artigo, buscamos compreender a interação entre humanos e ambiente na Região Metropolitana de Florianópolis, através da análise das matérias publicadas no periódico "O Estado" sobre o desastre de dezembro de 1995. Neste sentido, identificamos de que forma este evento foi retratado, afim de perceber, sobretudo, quais fatores e/ou sujeitos foram apontados como causadores do desastre. Analisar tal aspecto a respeito da visão da sociedade sobre o desastre de 1995, por meio de matérias jornalísticas, contribui para entendermos em que medida a imprensa local colaborou para o reforço da dicotomia humanos/natureza nos anos 1990.
Um ministro global: a atuação de José Lutzenberger nos preparativos da Rio-92 (1990-1992)
Authors: Pereira Elenita Malta , Fritz Sara Rocha , Fiuza Denis Henrique
Published: February 2021

O artigo examina a atuação do engenheiro agrônomo e ambientalista brasileiro José Lutzenberger (1926-2002) nos eventos preparatórios à Conferência das Nações Unidas para o Meio Ambiente e Desenvolvimento (CNUMAD ou Rio-92). A análise compreende o período em que Lutzenberger ocupou o cargo de Secretário Nacional do Meio Ambiente no governo de Fernando Collor de Melo, de março de 1990 a março de 1992. A participação ativa de Lutzenberger na defesa ambiental no Brasil e no exterior desde a década de 1970 chamou a atenção de Collor, que, preocupado em melhorar a imagem do governo no exterior, o convidou para o cargo de Secretário. Examina-se a atuação ambiental de José Lutzenberger numa perspectiva global da história, como um mediador de ideias ecológicas, especialmente a Teoria de Gaia, que ele buscou expandir como Secretário. Discute-se o conceito de desenvolvimento sustentável, pouco conhecido até a realização da Eco-92 e do qual Lutzenberger foi um dos principais críticos. Por fim, apresenta-se um panorama da participação ativa de Lutzenberger nos preparativos da Conferência, até a PrepCon IV, em março de 1992, quando ocorreu sua saída do governo Collor. Essa participação revela concepções divergentes no preparo da CNUMAD; mesmo que não tenha sido a diretriz hegemônica, as ideias de Lutzenberger contribuíram no maior legado do evento: a conscientização mundial sobre a problemática ambiental.
"[...] que fossem cristãos e bons vassalos": as representações da alteridade indígena amazônica no Itinerario das Visitas Pastorais de D. José Afonso de Moraes Torres (1845-1848)
Authors: Silva Leandro Carlos Melo da
Published: February 2021

O presente artigo tem como objeto as representações da alteridade indígena amazônica construídas pelo bispo Dom José Afonso de Moraes Torres (1805-1865) no Itinerário das Visitas Pastorais, registro de suas viagens pela diocese do Pará entre os anos de 1845 e 1848. Na leitura dele, nota-se um entrelaçamento entre os campos religioso e político, na medida em que despontam concepções e práticas informadas tanto pela ortodoxia ultramontana, quanto das questões formuladas nos debates entre as elites políticas e intelectuais do Segundo Reinado sobre a construção da nação e da nacionalidade brasileiras, sobre os quais, o bispo, como membro do Instituto Histórico e Geográfico Brasileiro (IHGB), tinha amplo acesso. O desejo maior de D. José Afonso, nas visitas pastorais e no Itinerário, era o de sobrepor um modelo de cristão-vassalo, desejável naquela época à liderança da Igreja e do Estado, à heterogeneidade étnica e cultural indígena. Portanto, cabe-nos indagar sobre o que significava, para o bispo, ser cristão e vassalo.
“Viva ao Rei Nosso Senhor e morram os traidores”: a deposição do governador Sebastião de Castro e Caldas e as convulsões sociais na capitania de Pernambuco (c.1707-c.1711)
Authors: Abril Victor Hugo , Silva Lídia Eurídice de Noronha
Published: February 2021

Neste artigo, propomos um estudo sistemático acerca das convulsões sociais na capitania de Pernambuco com a saída do governador Sebastião de Castro e Caldas que assumiu o governo da capitania entre junho de 1707 e novembro de 1710. A figura do governador é um dos principais motores da administração colonial, ele é responsável pelo controle militar, defesa do território e detém vasta “autonomia” para negociar com os poderes locais. Ao longo deste artigo será discutido o contraste entre a documentação normativa que norteava a atuação político-administrativa desses agentes na América Portuguesa e a realidade da prática governativa, levando em consideração a busca por ascensão e prestígio social e a defesa dos interesses reais nas conquistas ultramarinas. E identificar as convulsões sociais na capitania da de deposição do governador.

Authors: Subhash Swaroopa , Bindu R. S. , Nair Pradeep S. , George Anuja Elizabeth
Published: February 2021

Objectives:

Primary objective was to compare between the serum cortisol levels in patients with lichen planus (LP) and normal subjects. The secondary objective was to compare between the serum cortisol levels of LP patients with and without oral lesions.

Materials and Methods:

This is a cross-sectional analytical study comparing the serum cortisol levels in patients with LP with that of age- and gender-matched normal subjects who attended a tertiary referral centre.

Results:

There were a total of 52 patients with LP in this study. The mean age was 48.1 ± 12.6 years. Male/female ratio was 1:1.9. Fifteen (28.8%) patients gave a history of recent stress in the 1 month before the onset of illness. Classical LP (34, 65.4%) was the most common type. Oral cavity was involved in 24 patients (46.2%). The mean serum cortisol level of patients with LP was higher than the same noted in age- and gender-matched normal subjects and this was statistically significant (P < 0.001). Statistically significant difference (P = 0.02) was noted between the serum cortisol levels of patients with different types of LP. No significant difference in the cortisol levels was observed between LP patients with and without oral lesions.

Limitations:

The main limitation of the study was the small sample size.

Conclusion:

This study showed a significant increase in serum cortisol levels in patients with LP when compared to normal subjects, while no significant difference was noted in cortisol levels between LP patients with and without oral lesions.

Published: February 2021

Covid-19 Küresel Salgınıyla birlikte mezuniyet öncesi tıp eğitiminde çok hızlı bir şekilde değişiklilere gitmek ve çevrimiçi uygulama olanaklarından yararlanmak gerekmiştir. Klinik uygulamaların vazgeçilmez olduğu Faz II ve III dönemlerinin bu süreçten daha fazla etkilendiği gözlemlenmiştir. Özellikle klinik uygulamalar için her fakültenin farklı çözümler geliştirmek durumunda kaldığı anlaşılmaktadır. Acıbadem Üniversitesi Tıp Fakültesinde de benzer şekilde bahar döneminde tamamlanamayan teorik eğitimin çevrimiçi yöntemlerle yapılması, klinik uygulamaların staj yeterliklerini sağlayacak şekilde bir sonraki yılın başına aktarılması ve intörnlük eğitiminin öğrencilerin tercihine göre klinikte veya çevrimiçi yapılması şeklinde yürütülen düzenlemeler yapılmıştır. İntörnlük programında yapılamamış olan seçmeli program bu döneme özel olarak yeni geliştirilen ve son dönem öğrencilerinin mezuniyetten sonraki yeni çalışma koşullarına hazırlanmalarını desteklemeyi amaçlayan "Pandemide Sağlık Hizmetleri" çevrimiçi programı ile tamamlanmıştır. Bilişsel alanı ölçen tüm yazılı ve sözlü sınavların tamamı çevrimiçi yöntemlerle yapılmıştır. Dekanlık, öğrenciler, akademisyenler ve TEAD’ın da katılımı ile çevrimiçi toplantılarda çok sık bir araya gelinmiş ve öğrenci ve öğretim üyelerinin tamamının sürece aktif olarak katılmaları desteklenmiştir. Öğrenciler ve akademisyenler her hafta düzenli bir şekilde e-posta ile bilgilendirilmiştir. Bu deneyimin önümüzdeki yıllarda eğitim teknolojilerin etkin kullanımının kalıcı hale gelmesine ve öğrenci merkezli eğitim etkinliklerin tüm program bileşenlerinde yaygınlaşmasına katkısı olması beklenmektedir.
Faire sa place et faire « famille » dans les villages de basse Amazonie (Brésil). Rôle de la socialisation enfantine dans les dynamiques familiales de transmission
Authors: Stoll Émilie , Medaets Chantal
Published: February 2021

Comment se définissent les contours de la famille de basse Amazonie riveraine, au Brésil ? Quelles modalités d’apprentissage informent ces dynamiques ? Dans cet article, nous mettons en regard deux processus de transmission qui obéissent à une logique d’exclusion : la transmission de savoirs et savoir-faire et la transmission de la terre. À l’âge adulte, la transmission inégalitaire de la terre engendre des conflits entre germains et modifie le périmètre de ce que les personnes de la région considèrent comme « la famille » ; pendant l’enfance, l’exclusion de ceux qui ne maîtrisent pas tel ou tel savoir-faire les obligent à devenir des « chasseurs de savoir » et à se débrouiller seul pour apprendre. Les conflits et rivalités que l’on observe à l’âge adulte autour des questions d’héritage prolongent cet ordinaire enfantin où prévaut le « chacun pour soi », sur fond de relations interpersonnelles âpres, y compris à l’intérieur de la famille.
Coherent modification of entanglement: benefits due to extended Hilbert space
Authors: Solenov Dmitry
Published: February 2021

A quantum computing system is typically represented by a set of non-interacting (local) two-state systems—qubits. Many physical systems can naturally have more accessible states, both local and non-local. We show that the resulting non-local network of states connecting qubits can be efficiently addressed via continuous time quantum random walks, leading to substantial speed-up of multiqubit entanglement manipulations. We discuss a three-qubit Toffoli gate and a system of superconducting qubits as an illustration.
The entangling power of a glocal dissipative map
Authors: Nourmandipour Alireza , Tavassoly M.K. , Mancini Stefano
Published: February 2021

We consider a model of two qubits dissipating into both local and global environments (generally at non-zero temperatures), with the possibility of interpolating between purely local dissipation and purely global one. The corresponding dissipative dynamical map is characterized in terms of its Kraus operators focusing on the stationary regime. We then determine conditions under which entanglement can be induced by the action of such a map. It results (rather counterintuitively) that in order to have entanglement in the presence of local environment, this latter must be at nonzero temperature.
Corrected quantum walk for optimal Hamiltonian simulation
Authors: Berry Dominic , Novo Leonardo
Published: February 2021

We describe a method to simulate Hamiltonian evolution on a quantum computer by repeatedly using a superposition of steps of a quantum walk, then applying a correction to the weightings for the numbers of steps of the quantum walk. This correction enables us to obtain complexity which is the same as the lower bound up to doublelogarithmic factors for all parameter regimes. The scaling of the query complexity is given. This technique should also be useful for improving the scaling of the Taylor series approach to simulation, which is relevant to applications such as quantum chemistry.
Generalized Dicke states
Authors: Hartmann Stephan
Published: February 2021

Quantum master equations are an important tool in quantum optics and quantum information theory. For systems comprising a small to medium number of atoms (or qubits), the non-truncated equations are usually solved numerically. In this paper, we present a group-theoretical superoperator method that helps solving these equations. To do so, we exploit the SU(4)-symmetry of the respective Lindblad operator and construct basis states that generalize the well-known Dicke states. This allows us to solve various problems analytically and to considerably reduce the complexity of problems that can only be solved numerically. Finally, we present three examples that illustrate the proposed method.
Extension of remotely creatable region via local unitary transformation on receiver side
Authors: Bochkin G. , Zenchuk A.
Published: February 2021

We show that the length of the effective remote state creation via the homogeneous spin1/2 chain can be increased more than three times using the local unitary transformation of the so-called extended receiver (i.e., receiver joined with the nearest node(s)). This transformation is most effective in the models with all-node interactions. We consider an example of communication lines with the two-qubit sender, one-qubit receiver and two-qubit extended receiver.
Quantum deep learning
Authors: Wiebe Nathan , Kapoor Ashish , Svore Krysta M.
Published: February 2021

In recent years, deep learning has had a profound impact on machine learning and artificial intelligence. At the same time, algorithms for quantum computers have been shown to efficiently solve some problems that are intractable on conventional, classical computers. We show that quantum computing not only reduces the time required to train a deep restricted Boltzmann machine, but also provides a richer and more comprehensive framework for deep learning than classical computing and leads to significant improvements in the optimization of the underlying objective function. Our quantum methods also permit efficient training of multilayer and fully connected models.
The learnability of unknown quantum measurements
Authors: Cheng Hao-Chung , Hsieh Min-Hsiu , Yeh Ping-Cheng
Published: February 2021

In this work, we provide an elegant framework to analyze learning matrices in the Schatten class by taking advantage of a recently developed methodology—matrix concentration inequalities. We establish the fat-shattering dimension, Rademacher/Gaussian complexity, and the entropy number of learning bounded operators and trace class operators. By characterising the tasks of learning quantum states and two-outcome quantum measurements into learning matrices in the Schatten-1 and ∞ classes, our proposed approach directly solves the sample complexity problems of learning quantum states and quantum measurements. Our main result in the paper is that, for learning an unknown quantum measurement, the upper bound, given by the fat-shattering dimension, is linearly proportional to the dimension of the underlying Hilbert space. Learning an unknown quantum state becomes a dual problem to ours, and as a byproduct, we can recover Aaronson’s famous result [Proc. R. Soc. A 463, 3089–3144 (2007)] solely using a classical machine learning technique. In addition, other famous complexity measures like covering numbers and Rademacher/Gaussian complexities are derived explicitly under the same framework. We are able to connect measures of sample complexity with various areas in quantum information science, e.g. quantum state/measurement tomography, quantum state discrimination and quantum random access codes, which may be of independent interest. Lastly, with the assistance of general Bloch-sphere representation, we show that learning quantum measurements/states can be mathematically formulated as a neural network. Consequently, classical ML algorithms can be applied to efficiently accomplish the two quantum learning tasks.

El Ministerio de Salud y Protección Social de Colombia, en colaboración con el Instituto Nacional de Salud y la Organización Panamericana de la Salud, convocaron en 2018 a todos los actores asociados al Programa Nacional de Prevención y Control de la Tuberculosis (PNPCT) y el Sistema Nacional de Ciencia, Tecnología e Innovación a la conformación de una red nacional que coordinara la investigación operativa (IO) relacionada con la tuberculosis (TB) en el país. Se realizaron siete talleres en los que se llegó al consenso de establecer la Red Nacional de Gestión de Conocimiento, Investigación e Innovación en Tuberculosis en Colombia (Red TB Colombia). Con más de 180 participantes, organizados en un nodo central y cinco nodos regionales que agrupan a las 37 entidades territoriales, en 2019 la Red TB Colombia realizó cuatro jornadas de capacitación en IO y definió 65 temas priorizados de investigación, ajustados a las líneas estratégicas establecidas por el PNPCT: prevención y atención integral, con foco en los afectados por la TB (41 temas en tres módulos) y compromiso político, protección social y sistemas de apoyo (24 temas en cuatro módulos). La priorización se realizó por el método de comparación por pares. La Red TB Colombia sigue activa y contribuye a la gestión del conocimiento dirigido a eliminar la TB en el país y ha permitido avanzar en la construcción de planes y la ejecución de proyectos locales de IO que generan resultados científicamente validados para fortalecer el PNPCT y mejorar la atención de los pacientes con TB.
Balancing science and public policy in Pakistan’s COVID-19 response
Authors: Bhutta Zulfiqar A. , Sultan Faisal , Ikram Aamer , Haider Adil , Hafeez Assad , Islam Muhammad
Published: February 2021

Background: Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) has affected the world in an unprecedented manner and South Asian countries were among the first to experience imported cases. Pakistan’s response to COVID-19 has been under scrutiny for its granularity, reach and impact. Aims: to evaluate objectively the chronology and depth of the response to COVID-19 in Pakistan. Methods: We evaluated available national and subnational epidemiological and burden information on COVID-19 cases and deaths in Pakistan, including projection models available to the Government at an early stage of the pandemic. Results: Pakistan, with a population of 215 million and considerable geographic diversity, experienced case introduction from pilgrims returning from the Islamic Republic of Iran, followed by widespread community transmission. The National Command and Operations Centre, established through civilian and military partnership, was critical in fast tracking logistics, information gathering, real-time reporting and smart lockdowns, coupled with a massive cash support programme targeting the poorest sections of society. Cases peaked in June 2020 but the health system was able to cope with the excess workload. Since then, although testing rates remain low (> 300 000 cases confirmed to date), case fatality rates have stabilized, and with 6300 deaths, Pakistan seems to have flattened the COVID-19 curve. Conclusion: Despite notable successes in controlling the pandemic, several weaknesses remain and there are risks of rebound as the economy and educational systems reopen. There is continued need for strong technical and programmatic oversight, linked to civic society engagement and working with religious scholars to ensure nonpharmacological intervention compliance.
Artikel Pengaruh Lamun Terhadap Kehidupan Ikan di Perairan Pulau Pramuka,Kep.Seribu
Authors: Miftahuddin Muhammad Fahmi
Published: February 2021

Lamun merupakan tumbuhan Agiospermae yang hidup di perairan laut dangkal dengan kedalaman 0.5 – 10 m atau lebih pada perairan jernih (Azkab 2000). Lamun memiliki struktur tubuh mulai dari akar, daun, bunga hingga biji.Lamun beradaptasi penuh untuk dapat hidup pada  lingkungan  laut.  Salah   satu   bentuk   adaptasi   lamun   untuk   dapat   bertahan   pada lingkungannya adalah memiliki akar rimpang (rhizome) yang membuat lamun mampu bertahan meskipun dengan arus laut yang cukup kencang. Selain itu lamun memiliki kemampuan untuk melakukan polinasi di bawah air yang dikenal dengan hidrophilus (Tangke 2010).Ekosistem lamun dapat ditemukan di sebagian besar perairan pulau dalam kawasan Taman Nasional Laut Kepulauan Seribu seperti pada Pulau Pramuka yang terletak pada gugusan Kepulauan Seribu yang merupakan pusat administrasi dan pemerintahan Kabupaten Administratif Kepulauan Seribu dan termasuk ke dalam Kelurahan Pulau Panggang. Di Pulau Pramuka terdapat tiga ekosistem yaitu, ekosistem mangrove, ekosistem lamun, dan ekosistem terumbu karang. Ketiga ekosistem tersebut mempunyai peran masing masing dan saling membentuk interaksi yang terkait satu sama lain.Ekosistem lamun merupakan ekosistem yang memiliki keanekaragaman hayati dan memiliki produktivitas primer yang tinggi pada perairan laut dangkal. Ekosistem ini juga memiliki asosiasi dengan berbagai kelompok organisme, salah satu diantaranya adalah ikan.Ekosistem Lamun mempunyai peranan penting bagi kehidupan ikan, yaitu sebagai daerah asuhan (nursery ground), sebagai tempat mencari ikan (feeding ground) dan sebagai tempat berlindung. Beberapa ikan seperti dari famili Scaridae menjadikan lamun sebagai makanan (Adrim 2006). Gillanders (2006) menyatakan bahwa padang lamun memiliki produktivitas primer dan dukungan yang besar terhadap kelimpahan dan keragaman ikan.Keberadaan lamun di Kepulauan Seribu mendukung produksi perikanan masyarakat. Namun, kegiatan-kegiatan manusia dapat menyebabkan terjadinya kerusakan ekosistem perairan laut dangkal, termasuk ekosistem lamun. Beberapa faktor utama yang mengganggu dan mempengaruhi perubahan ekosistem lamun di kawasan Taman Nasional Kepulauan Seribu antara lain adalah pencemaran, kegiatan pembangunan, aktivitas keseharian di pulau-pulau pemukiman dan kegiatan reklamasi dan pengerukan pantai (BTNKs 2008).Kurangnya informasi tentang arti pentingnya ekosistem lamun menyebabkan ekosistem yang sangat potensial ini terabaikan. Perhatian terhadap ekosistem lamun masih sangat kurang dibandingkan dengan ekosistem mangrove dan terumbu karang. Mengamati ekosistem lamun memberikan pemahaman betapa pentingnya nilai ekologis dari lamun dan ikan ikan yang hidup di dalamnya, oleh sebab itu perlu dilakukan penelitian untuk mendapatkan informasi mengenai ekosistem lamun terutama pengaruh ekosistem lamun terhadap kehidupan ikan di Pulau Pramuka.

NEED TO CHANGE MUSIC COURSE ACCORDING TO THE CURRENT TIME
Authors: Verma Yakshita
Published: February 2021

Music is the best of all the fine arts. It is a masterpiece of the spirit of the human mind. Through which a person manifests his intangible feelings in tangible form. Music is unbroken and eternal. Music is a mirror of our society and culture. Therefore music is the source of humanism and is eternal. Therefore, music develops the spirit of Vishwakutumbakam (the whole world is a family), which leads to the creation of a civilized society. The definition of music is given by Pt. Sharangadev in his treatise Sangeet Raratnakar in this way.

संगीत सभी ललित कलाओं में श्रेष्ठ कला है। यह मानव मन की भावना की उत्कृष्ट कृति है। जिसके माध्यम से व्यक्ति अपनी अमूर्त भावनाओं को मूर्त रूप में प्रकट करता है। संगीत अखण्ड एवं अनन्त है। संगीत अपने समाज व संस्कृति का दर्पण होता है। इसलिए संगीत मानवतावाद का पोषक है एवं अनन्त है। इसलिए संगीत से विश्वकुटुम्बकम (पूरा विश्व एक परिवार) की भावना का विकास होता है जिससे सभ्य समाज का निर्माण होता है। संगीत की परिभाषा पं. शारंगदेव ने अपने ग्रंथ संगीत ररत्नाकर में इस प्रकार दी है ‘‘गीतं वाद्यं तथा नृत्यं त्रयं संगीत मुच्येते।
STAGE TECHNOLOGY IN THE MODERN ERA
Authors: Gupta Yashasvi
Published: February 2021

The specific place where the artist sits for the presentation of any art or specific ideas is called the stage. This is also called theater because pigmentation is its main subject. In Western countries or the English language, it is called a stage. It seems that theater was prevalent among the deities even before the emergence of humans. Like Kailash festival of Lord Shiva, Mata Vagishwari sitting on a peacock with a veena in her hand and dancing in the court of Indra to Gandharva, Kinnar, and Apsaras only indicate the existence of the stage. According to the tradition of Indian music and drama, theater is first mentioned in the famous scripture Natya Shastra of Sanskrit literature. In ancient times, when the sage Muni used to do penance, he used to be in a tomb at some high place. Similarly, kings and emperors etc. used to address the meeting only after sitting on any highest posture. Because art is an essential part of life, it is natural to develop artistic elements along with the development of civilization and culture. A modern form of stage or theater can be achieved as a result of this long sequence of development.

किसी भी कला अथवा विशिष्ट विचारों की प्रस्तुति के लिए कलाकार जिस विशिष्ट स्थान पर विराजमान होते हैं उसे मंच कहा जाता है। रंजकता इसका प्रमुख विषय होने के कारण इसी को रंगमंच भी कहते हैं। पाश्चात्य देशों अथवा अंग्रेजी भाषा में इसे स्टेज कहा जाता है। ऐसा प्रतीत होता है कि मानव के उद्भव से पूर्व भी रंगमंच देवी देवताओं में प्रचलित था। जेसे भगवान शिव का कैलाश पर्व, माता वागीश्वरी का हस्त में वीणा लेकर मयूर पर बैठना तथा इन्द्र के दरबार में गांधर्व, किन्नर, एवं अप्सराओं को नृत्य आदि मंच के अस्तित्व की ओर ही संकेत करते हैं। भारतीय संगीत एवं नाट्य परम्परा के अनुसार सर्वप्रथम संस्कृत साहित्य के सुप्रसिद्ध ग्रंथ नाट्य शास्त्र में रंगमंच का उल्लेख मिलता है। प्राचीनकाल में ऋषि मुनि जब तपस्या करते थे तो किसी न किसी उच्च स्थान पर समाधिस्थ होते थे। इसी प्रकार राजा व सम्राट आदि भी किसी उच्चतम आसन पर आसीन होकर ही सभा को संबोधित किया करते थे। क्योंकि कला जीवन का एक अनिवार्य अंग है, अतः सभ्यता एवं संस्कृति के विकास के साथ-साथ कलात्मक तत्वों का विकास होना भी स्वाभाविक है। विकास के इसी लम्बे क्रम के परिणाम स्वरूप मंच अथवा रंगमंच का आधुनिक रूप प्राप्त हो सकता है।
DISTANCE LEARNING TO BREAK INTO GURU SHISHYA TRADITION

Nature brings before us a treasure of happiness in its thousands of colors, but this vibrant color of music has left its impact on the human mind and brain, it is beyond imagination. Music singing, playing and dancing are a coordinated form of the three arts. Presenting these three parts separately is to destroy the liveliness of music. Only by coordinated performance of these three organs does the person become self-centered after being cut off from all external conditions.Music is an art that integrates different sounds, through which the performance of emotions bring out interestingness, melody and beauty. Music is also related to tone and emotion. Music is present in every particle of the universe. The music is unlimited, untouched and uninterested. Scholars have considered music as the greatest means of attaining God. It has also proved that there is confusion, deviation in all the paths of the world. A person wanders into it, but music is the only medium that, while free from all thoughts, leads to the path of salvation.

प्रकृति अपने हजारों रंगों में हमारे सामने खुशियों का खजाना लाती हैं, किंतु संगीत के इस चटकीले रंग ने मानव मन और मस्तिष्क पर अपना जो असर छोड़ा हैं, वह कल्पना से परे है। संगीत गायन, वादन तथा नृत्य तीनों कलाओं का समन्वय रूप है। इन तीनों अंगों को अलग-अलग प्रस्तुत करना संगीत की सजीवता को नष्ट करना हैं। इन तीनों अंगों के समन्वित प्रदर्शन से ही व्यक्ति समस्त बाह्यय परिस्थितियों से कटकर आत्मकेन्द्रित हो जाता है।संगीत विभिन्न ध्वनियों को समन्वित करने वाली वह कला है, जिसके द्वारा मनोभावों के प्रदर्शन में रोचकता, माधुर्य एवं सुन्दरता आती है। संगीत का संबंध स्वर तथा भावों से भी होता हैं। संगीत सृष्टि के कण-कण में विद्यमान हैं। संगीत असीमित, अछोर व अशेष है। विद्वानों ने संगीत को ईश्वर प्राप्ति का सबसे बड़ा साधन माना है। यह भी साबित कर दिया है कि संसार के सभी रास्तों में उलझाव है, भटकन है। व्यक्ति इनमें उलझ कर भटक जाता है, परंतु संगीत ही एक ऐसा माध्यम है, जो समस्त विचारों से मुक्त रखते हुए, मोक्ष के मार्ग तक पहुँचाता है।

PENGUATAN USAHA TAHU DAN TEMPE KEKALIK MELALUI PELATIHAN MENGHITUNG HARGA POKOK PRODUKSI DENGAN PENDEKATAN FULL COSTING
Authors: Effendy Lukman , Isnawati Isnawati , Indriani Eni
Published: February 2021

Masalah pokok yang sering terjadi dari para pengusaha industri tahu tempe adalah meningkatnya harga kacang kedelai dalam beberapa bulan ini. Kelangkaan kedelai impor dari Thailand yang merupakan kedelai dengan kualitas terbaik dan yang digunakan oleh usaha tahu tempe Pak Satriawan inilah yang menyebabkan harga kacang kedelai meningkat drastis. Selama ini, perhitungan biaya produksi yang dilakukan oleh perusahaan hanya berdasarkan perkiraan saja. Perusahaan hanya menghitung biaya produksi berdasarkan bahan baku saja tanpa menghitung biaya seperti penyusutan, gaji karyawan, dan biaya overhead pabrik. Hal ini dapat mempengaruhi keuntungan yang didapat oleh perusahaan dan dapat membuat perusahaan mengalami kerugian. Solusi yang ditawarkan untuk masalah perhitungan harga pokok produksi yang dihadapi para pengusaha tahu dan tempe milik Pak Satriawan di Kekalik, dengan cara memberikan pelatihan cara menghitung harga pokok produksi yang sesuai menggunakan pendekatan Full Costing. Harapannya dari kegiatan PKM ini,

Pak Satriawan benar-benar menentukan harga jual berdasarkan harga pokok produksi yang sudah dihitung sebelumnya. Kegiatan Pengabdian ini berjalan dengan lancar dan telah berhasil memberikan pemahaman kepada Bapak Satriawan bahwa perhitungan harga pokok produksi yang diterapkan selama ini masih keliru, karena perhitungannya tidak berdasar pada metode atau konsep Full Costing atau Variabel Costing. Dari kegiatan pengabdian ini memberikan kesimpulan bahwa terdapat selisih harga pokok menurut perhitungan Bapak Satriawan dengan perhitungan Metode Full Costing sebesar Rp. 338 (Rp.20.390 - Rp.20.052) percetak dan Rp.16.900 (Rp.338 x 50 cetak) per hari.
A retrospective cohort study to evaluate the relationship of airway hyperresponsiveness to type 2 biomarkers in persistent asthma
Authors: Rory Chan , Chris RuiWen Kuo , Brian Lipworth
Published: February 2021

irway hyperresponsiveness (AHR) is a hallmark of persistent asthma measured using direct or indirect airway bronchial challenge testing. The purpose of this study is to investigate the putative relationships between type 2 inflammatory biomarkers, airway geometry (FEV1 and FEF25-75) and specific IgE (RAST or skin prick) to AHR. We performed a retrospective analysis of our database (n = 131) of patients with asthma. Of these subjects, 75 had a histamine challenge and 56 had a mannitol challenge. Fractional exhaled nitric oxide (FeNO) and specific immunoglobulin E (IgE) but not blood eosinophils were significantly higher in patients with AHR to either histamine or mannitol. FEV1 % and FEF25 - 75 % were significantly lower in patients with AHR. Elevated Type 2 biomarkers including FeNO and specific IgE but not blood eosinophils were associated with AHR. Highlights: FeNO and specific IgE but not blood eosinophils are raised in patients with airway hyperresponsiveness.

Published: February 2021

Heavy rain in Semarang on 1 January 2020 caused flooding. The existence of heavy rain cannot be separated from the dynamics of weather parameters which are closely related to the convection process and cloud formation. In this paper research has been conducted using Weather Research and Forecasting (WRF), to analyze the growth patterns of convective clouds as an effort to mitigate the initial events of extreme rainfall disasters. Several weather parameters that support cloud growth are very significant, namely the parameter values ​​that support the convection process to form convective clouds (Cumulonimbus). The results of the model show that there has been extreme rainfall which can be used as initial mitigation of hydrometeorological disasters.

This article presents the results of a comprehensive otorhinolaryngological and microbiological study of diseases of the nose and paranasal sinuses in patients with community-acquired pneumonia. These diseases are closely interconnected, since the upper and lower respiratory tract are a single whole, have structures and functions and mechanisms for the development of pathological conditions. The etiopathogenesis of bacterial inflammatory diseases of the upper and lower respiratory tract is based on the violation of the integrity of epithelial cells under the influence of respiratory viruses. Under the influence of the general toxic effect of the virus, phagocytosis is inhibited, immunological protection is disrupted, as a result, favorable conditions are created for microbial colonization in the nasopharynx and the further spread of infections to the paranasal sinuses and lower respiratory tract. As a result of a clinical and microbiological study, it was revealed that in community-acquired pneumonia, inflammatory diseases of the nose and paranasal sinuses such as acute and chronic rhinosinusitis, allergic and vasomotor rhinitis, curvature of the nasal septum were often encountered. To determine the nature of the microbial landsURTe of the upper and lower respiratory tract, a comparative microbiological analysis was performed from the nose and sputum. Analyzes showed that there was no significant difference in pathogenic microflora between the upper and lower respiratory tract. The main pathogen in both diseases was Streptococcus pneumoniae. Correspondence of the pathogenic microflora of the nasal cavity and lower respiratory tract when rhinosinusitis is detected in patients with community-acquired pneumonia confirms the pathogenetic relationship of inflammatory processes in these organs, as well as the need for parallel diagnosis, treatment, prevention.
