в статье обсуждаются русские эвфемизмы о смерти, которые имеют в своей основе концептуальный метафорический образ. Установлено, что метафоры играют ключевую роль в создании эвфемизмов, заменяя неприятное или грубое понятие более мягким или социально приемлемым. Смерть является табуированной темой, вызывающей страх потери близких, разложения и распада тела, конца жизни и злых духов. В русском языке метафоры смерти часто основаны на концепциях покоя, сна и загробной жизни с Богом. Эвфемизмы смерти отражают культурную веру в загробную жизнь и идею о том, что смерть – это не конец, а скорее переход в другое существование. Метафоры помогают переосмыслить значение слова или фразы, позволяя говорящим выражать деликатные или табуированные темы более косвенным и менее категоричным способом.

the article discusses Russian euphemisms about death, which are based on a conceptual metaphorical image. Metaphors have been found to play a key role in the creation of euphemisms, replacing an unpleasant or rude concept with a softer or socially acceptable one. Death is a taboo subject, causing fears of loss of loved ones, decomposition and disintegration of the body, the end of life and evil spirits. In Russian, death metaphors are often based on the concepts of peace, sleep, and an afterlife with God. Euphemisms for death reflect a cultural belief in an afterlife and the idea that death is not an end, but rather a transition to another existence. Metaphors help reframe the meaning of a word or phrase, allowing speakers to express sensitive or taboo topics in a more indirect and less forceful way.

Authors: Литовкина А.М. , Терских Т.Ф.
Published: July 2024

обучение иностранных студентов монологической речи научного стиля имеет целью усовершенствовать навыки устной и письменной речи, ввести студентов в новую сферу общения, а также позволяет осуществлять формирование навыков и умений профессиональной направленности поэтапно. В нашем исследовании мы обратили внимание на логико-семантический анализ научного текста, который позволит подготовить иностранных студентов к программированию высказывания по тексту и теме. Умения логико-семантического анализа текста одновременно являются основой формирования умений программирования самостоятельного высказывания. Такой подход к формированию умений программировать станет более эффективным, если будет усиливаться профессиональная направленность преподавания лингвистических дисциплин. Трансформация лингвистических текстов научного стиля включает в себя анализ и синтез опорных элементов текста; для обеспечения прогнозирования языковых средств использование денотативных карт, графов; для сокращения языкового материала использование компрессии (сжатия) текста.

teaching foreign students scientific-style monologue speech is aimed at improving oral and written language skills, introducing students to a new sphere of communication, and also allows for the formation of skills and abilities of a professional orientation in stages. In our study, we drew attention to the logical and semantic analysis of a scientific text, which will prepare international students for programming statements on the text and topic. The skills of logical and semantic analysis of the text are at the same time the basis for the formation of programming skills for independent utterance. Such an approach to the formation of programming skills will become more effective if the professional orientation of teaching linguistic disciplines is strengthened. The transformation of linguistic texts of scientific style includes the analysis and synthesis of the supporting elements of the text; to ensure the prediction of linguistic means, the use of denotative maps, graphs; to reduce linguistic material, the use of text compression.
“I Owe More to the Royal Favor, Than Any Merit I Posses Can Justly Claim”: The Loyalists As Transactional Leaders
Authors: Derby Kevin
Published: July 2024

Aim: This study examined the Loyalists and their embrace of transactional leadership style during the American Revolution.
Methods: The study relied on primary and secondary historical sources and scholarship on transactional leadership. These included general histories, biographies, memoirs, sermons, public statements, and diaries.
Results: In their efforts to oppose the American Revolution, the Loyalists relied on transactional tactics. Despite their prominence, wealth, offices, and connections, the Loyalists proved ineffective in opposing the transformational forces unleashed by the Revolution.
Conclusion: While they included some of the most prominent political and religious leaders in the colonies, the Loyalists failed to stop the American Revolution, mainly due to their reliance on transactional leadership style.
Recommendations: Studying the Loyalists offers insight into how transactional leadership can prove ineffective in transformational times and settings. When voters and followers demand reform, transactional leadership style and leaders who embrace it will fail to deliver. Scholars should look at the Loyalists as transactional leaders in their efforts to understand the American Revolution.

Authors: Herbei Mihai Valentin , Sala Florin
Published: July 2024

The study analyzed the variability of some indices, interdependence relationships and differences in the vegetation description. Based on the Rapid Eye satellite system, images were taken for the ATU Padureni area, Timis County, Romania. From the analysis of the images, the spectral bands were obtained and the NDVI, gNDVI, NDVIre, and RTVIcore indices were calculated. The series of values presented a normal distribution, under conditions of r = 0.982 in the case of gNDVI, r = 0.961 in the case of NDVI, r = 0.983 in the case of NDVIre, respectively r = 0.990 in the case of RTVIcore. The descriptive statistical analysis facilitated obtaining the values of the statistical parameters and the description of the data series for each index. Based on the coefficient of variation (CV), the indices considered showed high variability; CV = 54.7535 in the case of the NDVIre index, CV = 57.2578 in the case of the RTVIcore index, CV = 58.0955 in the case of the NDVI index and CV = 64.5481 in the case of the gNDVI index. Linear models described the variation of the gNDVI index and the NDVIre index in relation to the NDVI index (p = 0). Polynomial models of the 2nd degree described the variation of RTVIcore in relation to NDVI (R2 = 0.918), in relation to gNDVI (R2 = 0.954) and in relation to NDVIre (R2 = 0.938), p = 0. The comparative analysis of gNDVI and NDVIre indices in relation to NDVI led to statistically significant differences (p<0.001) in relation to the mean and median value of the NDVI index.
THE INFLUENCE OF FERTILIZATION ON THE QUALITY AND BIOLOGICAL GROWTH OF LOLIUM PERENNE

Published: July 2024

Perennial ryegrass has been the subject of breeding activity focused on intensive breeding, especially in recent decades. Breeding has focused on population improvement and obtaining synthetic cultivars that show strong increases in biomass yield. This in the conditions where the production of biomass, respectively the green mass/forage is one of the most important productive features of forage plants. The ability to increase the yield of the whole plant through reproduction reaches an optimal index of leaf area quite quickly during the growth of the forage plant support. Varieties were created and selected with short growth, greater density, persistence and resistance to cutting. Although phenotypic differences between these functional groups are evident, a genome-wide analysis of the degree of differentiation and biological pathways, or genes under selection, has not been previously reported. Productive success has been achieved in recent decades as summer and autumn dry matter yield has increased between 0.3 % and 0.9% annually over the past 40–50 years, and spring dry matter yield has remained almost unchanged. Breeders have developed forage ryegrass crops with different maturity groups, from early to late season types, adapted to a long grazing season that are being used for permanent pastures, due to growth in both summer and autumn.

Authors: Nnko Eliakira ,   Institute of Accountancy Arusha, Ismail Ismail J. , John Elia
Published: July 2024

This study was set to investigate the relationship between learning orientation and financial performance of micro and small food agro-processing enterprises. The study was carried out in Arusha, Morogoro and Dar es Salaam regions in Tanzania. A quantitative approach and a cross-sectional survey design were employed. A total of 302 owner-managers were assessed using semi-structured questionnaire whereas stratified sampling technique was used to pick the sample. Data analysis was performed through structural equation modelling. The study confirmed positive link between learning orientation and the financial performance of food micro and small agro-processing enterprises in Tanzania. More specifically, both gross profit margin and net profit margin showed positive significant relationship with firm’s learning orientation. On the other hand, return on capital employed was found to have positive none significant relationship with learning orientation. The findings provide an indication that, deliberate efforts for improving learning behaviours are needed for improved financial performance of micro and small agro-processing firms. Hence, business owners of food agro-processing MSEs need to establish their learning frameworks by attending workshops, training and business exhibitions where they can acquire necessary business knowledge for improving their firms’ financial performance. Again, government and trainers can enhance learning habits of the agro-processing MSEs by establishing conducive environment for the enterprises to learn and acquire knowledge to positively enhance financial outcomes of these firms.

Finding Missing Calcifications
Authors: Layfield Lester J. , Esebua Magda , White Meghan , Schmidt Robert
Published: July 2024

Context.—

Mammographic identification of microcalcifications may result in biopsy because many calcifications serve as markers for breast pathology. Absence of these calcifications in histologic sections may indicate that an area of concern has not been adequately sampled.

Objective.—

To determine the optimal cutting protocols to identify mammary calcifications.

Design.—

Our standard protocol for breast biopsies with suspected mircocalcifications is to cut 2 levels separated by 30 µm and if no microcalcifications are detected, an additional 10 levels are obtained. An electronic search of surgical pathology records was performed for cases with microcalcifications identified between January 1, 2022, and March 30, 2023. For each case, slides designated by the radiologist as containing microcalcifications were retrieved. The level at which microcalcifications were first detected was recorded.

Results.—

The search revealed 431 specimens meeting the search criteria, of which 415 contained microcalcifications. Probability of finding microcalcifications in the initial level was 0.629 and the probability of detecting microcalcifications in the first 4 levels was 0.905. Four hundred three of 415 microcalcifications documented by mammographic imaging (97%) were detected histologically in the first 6 levels.

Conclusions.—

A 6-level approach appears optimal for the detection of microcalcifications. This study may have implications for other specimen types where a strong suspicion exists for a pathologic lesion, but examination reveals no lesions in the initial sections. Protocols using 6-level-deep cuts may represent optimal sampling.

The amount of scientific literature available is overwhelming, especially in fast-evolving fields like drug repurposing. Researchers face a significant challenge: staying up-to-date is nearly impossible due to the sheer volume of publications, databases, and tools available. This situation creates an urgent need for more efficient ways to access and integrate information from these articles.

To tackle this problem, we developed "DrugRepoChatter", a tool designed to help researchers navigate the flood of recent literature on data sources, methods, and tools relevant for mechanism-based drug repurposing. DrugRepoChatter uses a vector database containing 285 open-access articles carefully selected by experts from the REPO4EU project to cover the latest developments in drug repurposing. The chatbot works by finding semantic similarities between a user’s question and the information stored in the database, effectively answering questions by drawing directly from the content of these articles. DrugRepoChatter is available as a web tool at
https://apps.cosy.bio/drugrepochatter/

This tool makes the review process much more efficient and ensures researchers can quickly find relevant information. By facilitating faster access to scientific literature and enabling researchers to easily find the tools and information they need, DrugRepoChatter accelerates knowledge discovery. This tool not only streamlines the process of reviewing literature but also helps integrate scattered information into a cohesive, accessible format.
Echoes of the “Azdarar” Newspaper in Kuwait Concerning the Activities of the Armenian National Committee on the Issue of Recognition of the Armenian Genocide (2014-2017)
Authors: Sharoyan Elen
Published: July 2024

Key words: Kuwait, Armenian Genocide, Armenian National Committee, Diaspora, weekly newspaper “Azdarar”, demand

The Armenian National Committee stands out for its role and significance among the many Armenian lobbying organizations operating in the modern Diaspora. Promoting the process of international recognition and condemnation of the Armenian Genocide is the key activity of the latter.
The Armenian National Committee is highly influential in the Armenian communities of the Diaspora.
The activities of the Committee are actively covered on the pages of the newspaper “Azdarar” published in Kuwait.
Since 1996, the socio-political weekly “Azdarar” has been published at the republican level. The newspaper covers the life of the local Armenian community, publishes news from Armenia and various Diaspora communities, conducts analysis and covers important international events.
After the events in Yerevan in 1965 the process of recognition and condemnation of the Armenian Genocide resumed. It entered the modern stage after the adoption of the Declaration of Independence of the Republic of Armenia on August 23, 1990.
Since 1998, the issue of international recognition of the Armenian Genocide has a permanent place on the foreign policy agenda of the Republic of Armenia.
The weekly newspaper “Azdarar” covers the activities of the Armenian National Committee for the recognition and condemnation of the Armenian Genocide from the standpoint of national ideology. The newspaper does not consider the advancement of Armenian demands to be a monopoly of Diaspora Armenians and Armenian lobbying structures operating in the Diaspora, but considers it a process reflecting the unity and efforts of all Armenians.
Characteristics of Reflective and Non-Reflective Youth at Different Levels of Achievement Motivation
Authors: Harutyunyan Naira
Published: July 2024

The following article is an attempt to reveal the features of the influence of the level of reflexivity on different aspects of the psyche of the Armenian youth. Reflection is the process of recognizing and explaining individual’s inner mental world with its activities and states. The process is aimed at understanding one's own actions, inner states, feelings, experiences, analyzing them and making appropriate conclusions. In particular, an attempt was made to present the characteristics of the behavior of reflexive and non-reflexive youth with different manifestations of the motivation to achieve success. Achievement motivation allows the individual to define goals better and present them to others. Achievement motivation stands for the active life position that helps a person to overcome difficulties and develop as a result. We grouped the whole concept into two behavioral strategies that are activated in case of motivation to achieve success and avoid failure. Accordingly, the strategy of defensive pessimism is fixed in case of the motivation to avoid failure, and the strategy of strategic optimism - in case of the motivation to achieve success. The variations in a person's objective positions, their corresponding social expectations and self-esteem are determined by the above-mentioned behavioral strategies.
The Role of Communication in The Personality Development Process of Primary Schoolchildren
Authors: Meliksetyan Vahan
Published: July 2024

At the early school age, the child's personality is formating. Here the development of his/ her effective communication skills plays a huge role. Future success in educational and work activities depends on how easily s/he will be able to communicate and establish contact with the people around. It is known that a child may have communication difficulties when s/he starts going to school. The factors of society creation, features of personality development in a particular social setting, the socio-psychological nature of communication, and the mechanisms of reflection and interaction are all related to the genesis of communication challenges. Primary schoolchildren with strong communication skills possess a sophisticated set of conscious communicative acts that enable them to apply their knowledge creatively in order to build and sustain meaningful relationships with adults and their peers. It is assumed that in the initial period of educational activity, low development of communication skills is observed among primary schoolchildren, which creates the need for the implementation of a special psycho-pedagogical intervention program aimed at developing effective communication skills among them.
Personal Names of 14-16th Century Armenian Lapidary Inscriptions (Region of Present-Day Ukraine)
Authors: Chopuryan Gayane
Published: July 2024

The personal names in the lithographic inscriptions of the 14th-16th centuries there are some personal names, which in some cases are a novelty in our Armenian personal nomenclature system. Studing those, Acharyan's dictionary of personal names can be supplemented with not only numerical personal names (Khachum, Khatrshay, Malkhas, Nor Paron, Satat, Sarupeh, Aziz Khatun, Chihan, Pey Meliq, Sirakhatun, Tilshat), but also new phonetic versions of personal names (Raqel, Ulpek, Tagorshah), and new personal names (Ataka, Armushqah, Badiar, Yeaulik, Tulayd, Khachkarapet, Hundish, Merhider, Mikhno, Mutakh). The existence of new personal names also testifies to the literary Armenian that in the middle period of the development of the Armenian, the process of personal identification continued in the life of the Armenians of the colony, which is mentioned by the lithographic inscriptions.
Referring only to the records of the region of present-day Ukraine, it’s noticeable that the local Armenians migrated mainly from Ani in the order of inheritance preserving their personal nomenclature system. Some of them (Sargis, Meliq, Petros, Ghazar, Grigor) were handed down from the ancient period of development of literary Armenian and are stil used nowdays, others (Asli, Babah, Badiar), present a new layer in the middle literary Armenian due to the influence of the foreign environment.

За антиграфа на Песнивеца на цар Иван Александър (БАН, София 2; ГИМ, Щукин 3)
Authors: Славова Татяна
Published: July 2024

The article explores the so-called Pesnivec, which contains Psalms with commentaries by Pseudo-Athanasius of Alexandria (in fact, its autor is Hesychios of Jerusalem). Тhe manuscript, also known as the Sofia Psalter, is kept currently in the Archive of the Bulgarian Academy of Sciences (cod. BAN 2; GIM, Ščukin 3). The Codex was written in 1337 for king John Alexander (1331–1371) according to the colophon on f. 311r, which is part of the Eulogy to King John Alexander. The Psalter consists of 317 parchment folios, 312 of which were written by two main copyists. The author of the article aims to identify at the orthographic level which features are intrinsic to the copyists and which to the manuscript from which they have been copied, in order to establish the hypothetical antigraph of the codex. On the basis of the analysis the conclusion is reached that the Pesnivec was copied from a Middle Bulgarian manuscript of the 13th century of East Bulgarian origin with preserved traces of an older Cyrillic tradition.

This paper presents Load Frequency Control (LFC) strategy for Microgrid (MG) systems, proposing a strategy based on a PID optimized controller using computational intelligence (CI) technique. The MG system, relying solely on Renewable Energy Sources(RES) is modeled in SIMULINK. A novel multi-objective function comprising of Weighted Integral Square Error, WISE and Weighted Integral Absolute Square Error WIASE (WISE+WIASE) is proposed to enhance system performance. Using Particle Swarm Optimization (PSO) and Accelerated Particle Swarm Optimization (APSO), the Proportional, Integral and Derivative controller parameters are tuned. Simulation results revealed the superiority of the PSO-PID with the least steady state error of 4.1560e-07 and overshoot 0.0611 respectively over the APSO-PID with steady state error value of 4.8144e-07 and overshoot of 0.1334 respectively. PSO-PID also outperformed APSO-PID across other indices (ITAE, IAE, ITSE and ISE) making the PSO-PID to excel over the APSO-PID in terms of steady state error and overshoot. The controllers proved to be robust in various conditions with the PSO-PID controller exhibiting more robustness and stability than the APSO-PID controller. Comparing PSO and APSO algorithms, PSO outperformed APSO in terms of robustness because for five number of runs in both algorithms, the PSO algorithm presents a more quality and consistent results and also display a better convergence than the APSO algorithm . Conversely, APSO surpasses PSO in fast computational time and convergence speed. These findings underscore the effectiveness of the proposed LFC strategy for RES based Microgrid systems, providing valuable insights into comparative performance of PSO and APSO algorithms.
