RECLAIMING THE GOVERNMENT FOR THE SOVEREIGNTY OF THE PEOPLE
Authors: Eko Sutoro
Published: January 2022

In contrast to the idea of "reclaiming the state", this paper presents the idea of "reclaiming the government" for the sovereignty of the people. There are two reasons that hit it. First, the scarcity of "government theory" in governmental science and study. Various theories and studies (sociology, economics, politics, law, administration, management) place government as an object, without forming the whole theory of government.  Second, the practices of governance without government. Although Indonesia formally has a government, it is not a government in the true sense of the principles of republicanism and constitutionalism. So to uphold the people's sovereignty, it is important to reclaim the government from bureaucracy, technocracy, development, and markets. This can be done with thought dan struggle. Governmental science can contribute by making endogenous government theories (institutions, political-economy, and governmentality) and use that theory to study government, human phenomena, and people's interests.
Deep Ecological Consciousness and Interconnectedness in William Wordsworth’s Tintern Abbey
Authors: Bhandari Rupsingh
Published: January 2022

Humans and nature interconnectedness is a dynamic process. The extensive misuse of natural resources has left us in an uncontrolled situation. Ecological disasters are worsening our relationship with nature. Humans’ anthropocentric attitude to dominate nature needed to be relooked from biocentric lenses. Rediscovering our interconnectedness with nature will advance our ecological consciousness to bring equilibrium between humans and nature. This paper intends to examine “Tintern Abbey”, the famous poetry by William Wordsworth to raise awareness of the interconnectedness of humans and nature in people’s minds, through deep ecological perspectives.

Published: January 2022

Allelopathic effects of the donor plants are mostly regarded as harmful to target plants such as traditional crops. Traditional crops play pivotal role as staple food for rural communities and hence ensuring food security. Study of the allelopathic effects of Androstachys johnsonii Prain on the germination and growth of Zea mays L. and Vigna subterranea (L.) Verdc was conducted. Different plant leachates concentrations of 0.675%, 1.25%, 2.5% and 5% were prepared through serial dilutions. Germination bioassays were arranged in a complete randomized setup of three replicates for each treatment for seven days. Germination rates were calculated, radicle and hypocotyl lengths were also measured. Germination rates of Z. mays L. and V. subterranea (L.) Verdc. ranged from 50 - 100% and 18 - 76%, respectively. Significant differences of P< 0.005 were noticed from the germination rates of V. subterranea (L.) Verdc subjected to high concentrations of different extracts used. Statistically there was no significant differences between germination rates of Z. mays L. treated with all concentrations of leaf leachates against germination rates of the seeds treated with distilled water. Outstandingly, the germination rate and early growth of Z. mays L. were promoted by less concentrated extracts of leaf, root, stem bark and soil which then suggest future use of allelochemicals from Androstachys johnsonii Prain for promotion of maize plant productions. Based on the beneficial attributes of allelochemicals from Androstachys johnsonii on the germination and growth of Z. mays L., planting of Androstachys johnsonii Prain in maize fields is highly recommended.
Languages Speak Reconciliation: An Interdisciplinary Study on the Impact of National Language in Post War Reconciliation Sri Lanka
Authors: Jayathilaka Aruna , Medagama Thisiri , Panadare Udeshini , Menike Prawardhani
Published: January 2022

The Role of National Language is endorsed in different contexts and it has triggered an inspirited debate within the Sri Lankan political history when its discriminatory nature policies marked a triumph of linguist nationalism. The recognition of the Sinhala language as the only National Language in Sri Lanka and its dominance, drifted both communities apart causing frustration and tension among ethnic groups, which have ultimately culminated in ethnic strife that lasted almost three decades. National Languages, hence wield as a sociopolitical tool that demands a balance among languages, recognition, and policies. Similarly, Sri Lanka, in its path to reconciliation also demands a balance among National Languages, policies, and its recognition among the communities. This study thus explores the Role of National Language in promoting social cohesion and coexistence among ethnic groups to achieve anticipated “Reconciliation” within Sri Lankan social fabric.  The paper draws upon a mixed approach employing qualitative methods, including in-depth interviews. Data were gathered from interviewing 20 undergraduates from the Faculty of Social Sciences and Languages at the Sabaragamuwa University of Sri Lanka. Data were coded and analyzed using thematic analysis.   Findings revealed that the recognition of National languages in their due status will make a huge impact on fostering reconciliation within Sri Lankan Society. It is further not to be confused with the Link Language as a National Language since its duty in social integration is relatively limited in the cases where the understanding of cultural, traditional, and historical attributes of an ethnic community is more pronounced especially in grappling with attitudinal problems inherited within ethnic communities.

The study investigated perceptions on irrigation water supply and utilisation by Smallholder Agricultural Enterprises (SHAEs) in the Vhembe District of Limpopo Province. More (55.4%) SHAEs depended on surface water as the main source for irrigation. Surface water supply was ranked moderate in the majority of SHAEs, both for summer (58.6%) and winter (69.7%) irrigation and was regarded as always available (51.3%). Groundwater was the main source in 44.2% of SHAEs and was ranked very high for summer (55.7%) and winter (34.4%) irrigation. Groundwater was perceived to have the advantage of being always available in 83.6% of SHAEs while 64.9% complained about higher pumping costs. One in three (33.9%) SHAEs revealed they irrigated two to four times a day while one in five (18.7%) irrigated once every eight to 14 days. The mean amount of water used to irrigate was estimated at 5 300,88l +/- 20 762,91l. Almost two in three (62.6%) SHAEs experienced competition for water. Statistically, signification association was observed between the main source for irrigation and monthly income (X2 (1) = 7.10, p < 0.013) after the Bonferroni adjustment. It was determined that 51,3% of SHAEs with income </= R5000/month used surface water as the main source for irrigation compared to 69.6% with income > R5000/month.

A study was carried out to investigate the level of awareness, knowledge and information of small-holder farmers (SHLF) on the impact of climatic change (CC) and extremes on livestock production in Limpopo and Mpumalanga Provinces. At least 366 smallholder farmers were interviewed using a semi-structured questionnaire to elicit responses on vulnerability. Almost all the farmers (96 %) have heard about CC only a few farmers (4 %) did not know CC. The medium for the conveyance of CC information was the main radio (94.32%). Newspapers and television were also efficient mediums in the conveyance of this information, each with the outreach of 16.76 and 32.67%, respectively. Central to the impact of CC was the fact that (90%) of the farmers confirmed that there was a change in grass availability; which contributed to major livestock fatalities of which over half of the farmers (55.19%) attested as the cause. The study found that 86.67% of SHLF who attended awareness meetings indicated that the discussions prioritized adapting to CC. However, SHLF (80.77%) did not have an early warning system. This was coupled with a lack of contingency plans by (84.36%) the farmers to deal with the impact of the said drought on their farms. SHLF (19%) who had facilitated contingency plans indicated that improved aspects of the plan should incorporate the support of their provision feeds, drilling of boreholes, and erection of dams. Based on SHLF perceptions there is a need for strategic shifts from grazing to small scale feed-lots.
The inheritance of colonial penological practices in the postcolonial and apartheid periods: A histography of South Africa
Authors: Motlalekgosi Hendrick Puleng
Published: January 2022

Colonialism has had an influence on many sectors across the board in South Africa including the prison system among others. Its impact could be seen in the way prisoners were treated during the post-colonial era and apartheid era. This paper seeks to demonstrate the relationship between the colonial, post-colonial and apartheid penological practices by examining the treatment of prisoners during the said periods. Examination of this relationship may be useful in understanding what really informed the promulgation of racist policies during the post-colonial period and apartheid period. This paper contends that the legislation that was promulgated during the post-colonial and apartheid periods, which were  legislative instruments on how prisoners were treated, were in fact a formalization and continuation of what had already being practiced during the colonial era. The following themes are central to this discourse: The colonial period between the 1840s and 1909; The post-colonial period between 1910 and 1948 and; The National Party era (apartheid era): 1948 – 1993.
Role of Figures in Mathematics Problems in Slovak Testing T9
Authors: Csachová Lucia , Jurečková Mária
Published: January 2022

Besides providing information to pupils, their parents, teachers, and school founders about the achieved level in mathematics, the pupils’ results in mathematics at international or national testing can also be used for other purposes. In our research, the results of Slovak national testing T9 (success rate of pupils and difficulty of individual thematic areas and test items) seem to us to be a reasonable source for identification of critical areas in school mathematics. Based on the findings of such areas, we target more at these areas in the preparation of future teachers of mathematics. The special group of problems, so-called problems with figures, seems to be one of the critical areas. In the assignment of these problems, a part of the input information is not of a purely textual character, and in the process of solving the solver has to read information about objects appearing in the problem and relations between objects from figures (e. g. scheme, graph, chart, table, picture or map). The paper focuses on success rates of pupils in solving problems of this type and on various roles and functions of figures in problems with figures from the testing T9.

Indonesia’s characteristics as an archipelagic state along with the increase of traditional and non-traditional threats in Indonesia require the ownership of military amphibious aircraft to oversee its maritime territories and perform logistics distribution to remote areas with minimum accessibility, especially its outermost islands. This study applied a combination of analytic hierarchy process (AHP), Political, Economic, Social, Techonology, Environment, and Legal (PESTEL) and Strength, Weakness, Opportunity, and Threat (SWOT) analysis to conduct a structured, systematic, measurable, and comprehensive decision-making process for selecting military amphibious aircraft and prescribe strategic recommendations on the acquisition plan. By using 3 criteria, 14 sub-criteria, and 3 alternative aircraft models, the results of AHP analysis showed that the Beriev Be-200 aircraft are the most preferred aircraft by the Indonesian users. The results of PESTEL-SWOT analysis show that good diplomatic relations between Indonesia and the manufacturer’s country of origin, users’ support to the plan, and user’s ability to adapt in operating and maintaining the aircraft support this decision. Meanwhile, limited fiscal capacity and domestic aircraft maintenance facilities/depots, as well as the risk of spare parts scarcity, have to be addressed for Indonesia to acquire its own military amphibious aircrafts.

Authors: Doulou Aikaterini , Drigas Athanasios
Published: January 2022

In recent years, there has been an increase in the incidence of ADHD in children and adolescents. Many learning and behavioral problems are associated with this disorder due to difficulties in cognitive and metacognitive functions. Only when individuals improve these functions will they be able to integrate in the social environment. Skills such as self-awareness, self-regulation, and self-control can help children with ADHD develop their emotional intelligence to control their cognitive deficits and adapt to diverse areas. With the rapid development of science, several medical and behavioral methods have been proposed to treat ADHD, which have contributed significantly to the control of symptoms. However, medication is considered as a first-choice treatment to reduce the symptoms. The present study investigates the comorbidity of ADHD with other mental and developmental disorders as also the role and effectiveness of drug intervention in order to improve the quality of life of these children.

Published: January 2022

Education in the 21st century is called upon to prepare students with disabilities to enter a high-consciousness society where people can learn, think and react fast. The current review paper aims at investigating the role of fast learning in special education. We trace the essential indicators of speed learning with a special focus on those factors that are most relevant to learning disabilities. Afterward, we present evidence-based training techniques and strategies that speed up learning. In addition, we examine the role of ICTs as essential training tools in speed learning. Finally, we discuss the role of metacognition in training fast and conscious learners. The results of this review showed that speed learning training techniques improve all those factors that accelerate learning such as spatial attention, visual span, processing speed, speed reaction, executive functions, metacognition and consciousness. Most important, fast learning strategies meliorate control processes and spatial intelligence which is extremely fast and powerful. This study also points to the option of including high-speed training techniques in schools to help children with or without disabilities to become conscious and high-capacity learners.

Unique contribution to theory and practice: This research makes a theoretical contribution to Cyber security ethics by promoting virtue ethics as a framework for moral investigations into Cyber security. Results can be utilized to improve methods, instruments, and tools to assess the employees’ cyber security ethical behavior. Policy makers can develop virtue ethical based training programs with dedicated, continuous learning and teaching undertakings geared towards monitoring and enhancing the overall ethical behavior towards cyber security in the banks.  The results are a platform to the Government of Uganda through the Ministry of ICT in generating appropriate national policies related to Cyber security ethics as a strategy aimed at improving Cyber security in the banking sector.
FORMULATION DEVELOPMENT AND CHARACTERIZATION OF TRIAMCINOLONE LOADED CUBOSOMES FOR TRANSDERMAL DRUG DELIVERY
Authors: Pandian C. , Sathali A.Abdul Hasan , Abirami G. , Krithika E.
Published: January 2022

Psoriasis is a chronic condition that is caused by the negative signals given by immune system, which leads to hyperproliferation and other inflammatory reactions on the skin. These conditions may adversely affect the quality of the patient’s life leading to psychological stress. Topical delivery of drug is always preferred for Psoriasis because other treatments may lead to systemic intoxication and other adverse reactions. Triamcinolone is a topical corticosteroid belonging to BCS class IV (low solubility and permeability) used to treat Psoriasis. The limitations with transdermal delivery is that only a small amount of the drug can be transferred through the skin tissue due to the barrier effects of the Stratum corneum. Therefore, Novel transdermal delivery system, Cubosomes belonging to Nanostructured lipid carriers were chosen to overcome the issues of solubility and permeability. Twelve formulations were prepared with various ratios of Glyceryl monooleate (2.5 to 5%) & Poloxamer 407 (0.5 to 2%) and the formulations were evaluated for particle size, PDI, zeta potential, entrapment efficacy, drug content and in-vitro release. The best composition of Cubosomes was selected and incorporated into transdermal patch and the formulated patches were evaluated.

Published: January 2022

The aim of the study is to formulate and evaluate transdermal patches of Thiocholchicoside In the present study, matrix type were prepared by moulding techniques. This mode of drug delivery is more beneficial for chronic disorders such as Rheumatoid arthritis which require long term drug administration to maintain therapeutic drug concentration in plasma. Transport of drugs or compounds via skin is a complex phenomenon, which allows the passage of drugs or compounds into and across the skin. In the present work an attempt has been made to formulate and evaluate the transdermal patches of Thiocholchicoside using various blends of polymer. The polymeric combinations EC/PVP and EC/HPMC used for the formulation of transdermal patches showed good film forming property. The patches formed were thin, flexible, smooth and transparent. The weight variation tests showed less variation in weight and suggesting uniform distribution of drug and polymer over the mercury surface. The thicknesses of the transdermal patches were found to increase on increasing concentration of hydrophilic polymers like PVP and HPMC.All the patches showed good flexibility and folding endurance properties. The result suggests that the formulations with increased hydrophilic polymer concentration showed long folding endurance. The moisture content in the patches was found to be low and formulations with more hydrophilic polymer concentrations showed more percentage moisture content. The in-vitro drug release studies showed that formulations TDP2, TDP3, TDP4, and TDP5 with increased concentration of hydrophilic polymer showed rapid release. The drug content analysis showed minimum variations suggesting uniform distribution of drug.

El Síndrome de Cornelia de Lange (SCDL), es una anomalía genética cuya prevalencia es de 1:62.000-1:45.000 de los nacimientos. Se atribuye principalmente a mutaciones en los genes NIPBL, SMC3 y SMC1A. Se caracteriza por presentar alteraciones físicas generales, alteración cognitiva y del lenguaje; y rasgos orofaciales como la sinofridia, hirsutismo, también existe maloclusión, retardo de la erupción, apiñamiento, anodoncia, malformación de las extremidades, retraso del desarrollo pre y postnatal y otras malformaciones congénitas. Objetivo: Analizar el caso de paciente con síndrome de Cornelia de Lange y su relación con algunos hallazgos reportados en la literatura especialmente la erupción dentaria. Se presenta paciente lactante femenina de 2 años y 5 meses, procedente de Valencia, con diagnóstico genético de Síndrome de Cornelia de Lange, plumbemia, y litiasis biliar, que acude a la consulta del Postgrado de Odontopediatría de la Universidad de Carabobo por presentar retardo en la erupción dentaria. Se realiza historia clínica, examen clínico general donde se observa retraso psicomotor, del lenguaje y características fenotípicas propias del síndrome. A la evaluación clínica intrabucal se observa rebordes gingivales con inserción normal de frenillos y ausencia de unidades dentarias (retardo de erupción). La erupción dentaria puede verse afectada en pacientes con diagnóstico de Síndrome de Cornelia de Lange, tanto en su cronología como en la secuencia de erupción.

Due to the hopeful application of gathering information from unreachable position, wireless sensor network creates an immense challenge for data routing to maximize the communication with more energy efficient. In order to design the energy efficient routing, the optimization based clustering protocols are more preferred in wireless sensor network. In this paper, we have proposed competent optimization based algorithm called ANT colony Optimization clustering algorithm for creating the energy efficient routing path. WSNs comprise of countless spatially dispersed sensor hubs associated through the remote medium to screen and record the actual data from the climate. The hubs of WSN are battery controlled, so after a specific period it free whole energy. This energy limitation influences the lifetime of the organization. The goal of this review is to limit the generally energy utilization and to boost the organization lifetime. In this paper, a new method to optimize number of clusters is presented with suitable results..

Healthcare has become one of the principal issue with the rise in human population and medical expenditure. For a healthy life, it is essential to follow human body’s vital signals. Continuous Monitoring of patient’s vital signals cannot be provided outside hospital. As it is hard to monitor the patient’s condition for 24 hours, it was proposed in this paper to observe continuously the condition of patient despite the patient being busy with his routine and to screen the health status to the doctors through Internet of Things. This paper proposes health monitoring system using non-intrusive biomedical sensors that measure five parameters like ECG, SPO2, toxic gas, temperature and blood pressure. Proposed method makes use of Arduino Uno Controller to which non-invasive biomedical sensors are connected. The output is displayed on any digital monitoring system using Arduino Uno. The data obtained from the sensors is uploaded to the Thing Speak cloud to store and to access patient’s information by their doctors or by the concerned for necessary follow-ups in real-time. IoT is a powerful domain where sensors can connect and data is viewed over the Internet.

Visually impaired and blindness caused by various diseases has been hugely increased because of various problems in the eyes and by born also many people are affected by eye problems to giving solutions for that we choose the project. These people face numerous challenges in playing out their everyday tasks, particularly in self-exploring in a situation that is unusual for them. They can't distinguish the item around them and them unable to recognize the object around them precisely much of the time. With the help of Object detection and classification technique, assist the blind people because during their mobility what are the objects present in front of those people it will be easily identified and giving instructions into the speaker itself. In this paper, our main idea is to detect the object in front of blind persons that detected objects are converted into voice feedback. For object detection, we use Single-Shot Detector Model for Train-Test configuration. then we use Play sound and GTTS python cross-platform libraries for classified labels into voice feedback. This system provides an efficient way of guiding the visually challenged people.
