AZERBAYCAN BESTECİLERİNİN ESERLERİNDE ETÜD TÜRÜ THE GENRE OF ETUDE IN THE WORKS OF AZERBAIJANI COMPOSERS
Authors: MIRZEYEVA Gulnar
Published: September 2021

The etude genre is one of the examples characterized by the emergence of different types of music that develop at certain stages of musical art. Although the introduction of studies as an independent genre in musical literature dates back to the XVII-XVIII centuries, its main function in the development of piano art was already present in other musical genres. The next stage in the development of the study genre is related to the work of the Romantic Movement representatives F.Chopin, R.Schumann, F.List. The acquisition of new features of the genre is due to the work of Russian composers. Thus, with the increase in the content features of art-concert studies, new features such as programming and integration with other genres were observed in Russian music. Interest in piano in Azerbaijan in the late 19th and early 20th centuries first appeared in aristocratic strata, but gradually spread to a wider area. The development of the art of performing on the piano also influenced the creativity of the composer an gave impetus to the formation of the national repertoire for this instrument. Although the etude genre in the works of Azerbaijani composers is not common in the works of European and Russian composers, there are important examples only in the early stages of the formation of miniatures. Azerbaijani composers E.Nazirova, F.Guliyeva, A.Azizov, A.Abbasov, Niyazi, J.Hajiyev, R.Shafag, Kh.Mirzezadeh and others managed to create interesting examples of this genre. One of the main features of the analysis of Azerbaijani somposers etudes is that these examples are pioneered for educational purposes. For this reason, some of the studies we analyzed (M.Mirzayev, J.Hajiyev etc.) are aimed at the first stage of music education with its small volume and simple structure. Studies of relatively large artistic and technical complexity (E.Nazirova,Niyazi,F.Guliyeva) are suitable for the upper classes of music schools. Although the evolution of the study genre and the features of its various genres are not embodied in these works with the splendour seen in the works of European and Russian composers, Azerbaijan is an interesting example of piano music in its educational repertoire. As a result, we can say that the etude genre is not a special development stage in the works of Azerbaijani composers, but each of the existing examples is important in the formation of the aesthetic tastes of young pianists, musical performances on a national basis, and it is successfully applied in the educational repertoire.
WORK (CYBER) BULLYİNG, POWER IMBALANCES AND VİCTİMİZATİON: A REVİEW ON PANOPTİC METAPHOR AND EMPLOYEE SURVEİLLANCE İN INDİAN WORKPLACES
Authors: Indiparambil Jijo James
Published: September 2021

The dominant interpretation of electronic surveillance in the workplace focusing mainly on the invasion of privacy does not give sufficient explanation of its various and nuanced underpinnings and other adverse effects. Likewise, harassment or bullying in the workplace has been at the forefront of major concerns of organizations and employees for several decades and is currently more prevalent and opaque. Combining these two factors and through a methodical revisit of the metaphor of the Panopticon, this paper aims to examine its relevance for the analysis of modern electronic surveillance used in the workplace, and sparks discussion around the issue of workplace bullying and the consequent control mechanism, power imbalances and victimization, with a special focus and application on Indian scenario. This research exposes the unfair and unjustifiable victimization of workplace bullying by going beyond Foucault’s concept of “disciplinary society,” according to which persons are “normalized” by their categorical locations, as well as beyond Deleuze’s argument of “society of control,” where people are forced to live in circumscribed parameters. It is an exploratory research that follows an analytic research methodology of theoretical analysis (literature reviews) and critical discourse analysis. Persistent victimization is relayed as a co-existent phenomenon of workplace bullying.

Cryptocurrencies are a modern kind of financial instrument (Hudson & Urquhart, 2019), the first cryptocurrency is Bitcoin , proposed by who called Satoushi Nakamato (2008), as The open source was created on the proof-of-concept principle that transactions can be securely treated on a decentralized peer to peer network without the need for a central clearinghouse, which appeared 2009 ( Heid, 2013). The success of the bitcoin blazes a trail to what called ‘Altcoin” this expression means all the cryptocurrencies that set in motion after the victory of the bitcoin, these coins sell themselves as the best alternatives for the bitcoin (FRANKENFIELD, 2020) . There are many types for the altcoin. The third type of the cryptocurrency is called Tokens Unlike Bitcoin and Altcoins, tokens are not able to activate independently and are dependent on the grid of another cryptocurrency. That means they do not have their own core DLT or blockchain, but instead, are built on top of an existing cryptocurrency’s blockchain (Types of cryptocurrencies: explaining the major types of cryptos, 2019). The worth of bitcoin doesn’t depend on any tangible asset or economies of the countries while it is based upon the security of an algorithm which traces all transactions (Hudson & Urquhart, 2019). The studies determine the number of the bitcoin price development in the long -run (Ciaian, Rajcaniova, & Kancs, 2018): • Market forces of the Bitcoin supply and demand • The bitcoin’s attractiveness for the investors • The influence of global macro-financial developments If you're forming an investment strategy designed to help you trail long-term financial intentions, understanding the relationship between company size, return potential, and risk is vital.

Yavuz Sultan Selim’in Mısır’ı almasıyla kutsal topraklarda hüküm sürmeye başlayan Osmanlı Devleti aynı zamanda hac organizasyonunu sağlama görevini de üstlenmiştir. Bu toprakların Memluklüler’den Osmanlı’ya geçmesiyle beraber dünyanın dört bir yanından hac farizasını yerine getirmek isteyen Müslümanların nezdinde Osmanlı padişahlarının itibarı artmıştır. Hac ibadetiyle birlikte dünyanın değişik bölgelerinden gelen insanlar arasında önemli bağlar kurulmuş ve sürdürülmüştür. Hac ibadeti döneminde buraya hem bölge halkının hem de hacıların sağlığına yönelik çeşitli uygulamalar gerçekleştirilmiştir. Bu alanlarda yapılan hizmetler sürekli hale getirilmiş, teknolojinin, tıbbın ve diğer alanların en güncel haliyle hizmetler sağlanmıştır. Salgın hastalıklarla mücadele hayatı durdurma noktasına getirdiği şu günlerde Osmanlı Devleti, o dönemin şartlarında hayat durdurmadan kontrollü bir şekilde, bütün hacılara sağlık hizmeti vermiştir. Osmanlı Devleti’nin hac dönemi boyunca gözettiği en önemli noktalardan biri de hacıların ve bölge halkının sağlığı olmuştur. Hacıların sağlıklı bir şekilde hac vazifelerini yerine getirip tekrar sağlıklı olarak memleketlerine dönmeleri devletin sorumluluğu doğrultusunda oluşturduğu imkânlar ile sağlanmaktaydı. 19. yüzyılda devletin kutsal topraklardaki sağlık politikasına baktığımızda genel idari ve bölgesel uygulamalar yapılmıştır. Harameyn’in sağlık altyapısını oluşturmak üzere sıhhiye idaresi tarafından alınmış kararların bölgede fiiliyata geçirilmişti. Ayrıca hac döneminde insanların sağlığını gözeten çalışmalar (suların temizlenmesi, tuvaletlerin inşası, kurban kuyularının açılması vs.) gerçekleştirilmekte idi. Hastanelerin teşekkülüyle tabip, cerrah, eczacı, ebe vs. sağlık memurları tayin edilerek daha kalıcı sağlık politikaları üretilmekteydi. Öte yandan hac mevsiminde çeşitli nedenlere bağlı olarak salgın hastalıkların baş göstermesi de karantina uygulamalarının yolunu açmıştır. 19. yüzyılda sağlık alanındaki gelişmeler göstermiştir ki hastalıkların çıkış nedenleri altında çevresel ve sosyal etmenler mevcuttur. Bu etmenlerin ortadan kaldırılması ancak devlet eliyle olacağından devletin görev olarak saydığı sağlık hizmetlerini yürütmesi, dünyanın dört bir yanından gelen Müslümanlar adına hilafetin gücünün temsili olmuştur.
"Hypotheses fingimus": Cartesian Natural Philosophy
Authors: Špelda Daniel
Published: September 2021

In this paper, I would like to present the methodological views of two representatives of the early modern Cartesian school: Jacques Rohault and Pierre-Sylvain Régis. Firstly, I want to present the methodological objections of Cartesians to Aristotelian and Scholastic natural philosophy. Then, I want to show how Cartesians strived for a combination of empirical and speculative procedures in their explanations of natural processes. Lastly, I would like to explain the reasons and forms of the hypothetical methodology which was significant for Cartesian natural philosophy. My aim is to refute the idea of the methodological naivety of Cartesians and point out the importance of hypothetical reasoning in the genesis of modern science.

PREDICTING THE FUTURE ECOLOGICAL NICHE OF $CULEX$ $PIPIENS$ AND ASSOCIATED BIORISKS IN ARMENIA
Authors: Niazyan Lyudmila G.
Published: September 2021

West Nile virus disease is an emerging infectious vector borne disease. Of registered invasive species of mosquitoes in Armenia, Culex pipiens is the most implicated one in the potential transmission of West Nile virus (WNV). In previous years (1985–1999), research on circulation of mosquito-borne arboviruses in Armenia was conducted by the research Institute of Epidemiology and WNV, Batai, Sindbis, Tahyna and Gheta were found in mosquitoes. The only mosquito-borne disease historically registered in Armenia was malaria, without autochtonous cases since 2006. However, per retrospective medical chart review study (2016–2019) in the Nork Infection Clinical Hospital, about 30% of febrile patients is diagnosed as “Fever of Unknown Origin”. We hypothesize that these arboviruses are circulating in Armenia and largely mis-diagnosed and/or under reported. Based on the geographical locations of mosquitoes, the MaxEnt model with 19 bioclimatic variables was developed to predict future ecological niche of C. pipiens and potential high-risk areas for West Nile virus disease. It is the first step for the implementation of a statistically rigorous system for real-time alert of biorisk.

New studies on the morphological characteristics of sunflower plants could provide new systems and directions in the complex progress of the future improvement of hybrids. Through the complex (Encheva & Shindrova, 2014) and wide genetic dowry together with the concrete cultivation conditions of the sunflower, the characteristic expression of the plant morphology takes place. In the recent improved Hysun 162 IT hybrid, some new characters were found, specific to the semi-early maturity group. Thus, the diameter of the sunflower head/capitulum had an average of 17 cm. The weight of the sunflower head was 105 g together with the achenes produced and only 39 g empty head, without achenes. The average of number of achenes/ head was 1470, and their weight was 65 g. The percentage of empty achenes was 2-3%, and the mass of one thousand seeds was on average 44 g. The seeds had a length of 10 mm and width of 5 mm. Positive correlations were generally obtained between the morphological characters of the sunflower head. Though this study carried out on the components of the heads of this new sunflower hybrid, a good adaptability to the current zonal agriculture was found.

Constructing the image of soldiers by using newspaper media during the final phase of war in Sri Lanka
Authors: Karunanayake Ashawarie
Published: September 2021

Sri Lanka has experienced an ethnic conflict for nearly three decades (1983-2009). As of any conflict, military forces have played a key role by actively involving in the battlefield during this war. However, it was evident that during different phases of the war in Sri Lanka, the acceptance and the reputation of the armed forces by the civil society have subjected to a great extent of variation. Although protecting the country was their duty, criticisms directed against them because of their military actions. In this context, there was an active attempt to legitimize battle, and media was widely used as a platform for this process. Although a considerable number of literature and researches have been conducted to study the war in Sri Lanka, the lack of studies and literature regarding the soldiers is recognizable. Hence this study tried to fill that study gap by focusing on how print media was used to construct the image of the soldiers in the final phase of the war in Sri Lanka. Therefore, the objective of this study was to critically investigate the role of newspapers in terms of constructing the identity of soldiers during the final phase, from 2006 to 2009. This was based on a discourse analysis of the weekend Sinhala and English newspapers. This study revealed that, different identities have existed towards the soldiers. Furthermore, as another observed fact, the newspapers have widely highlighted and brought forward the humanitarian facet of these soldiers. However, this study was conducted based on the newspapers of only two official languages. This may lead to miss the perspectives from the Tamil newspapers which may have conveyed other opinions about the soldiers and their actions, during these periods.

Utilization of sandwich composite during recent year has been driven by the fact that compositematerial has ultimately high strength and stiffness by weight than any other materials. The skins ofsandwich composites technically bear most of the applied loads, however, the core materials alsoplay an important role as it functions in providing continuous support to resist the shear stress.Hence, proper selection of core materials is required to establish a sturdy sandwich compositestructure. This paper presents an experimental investigation on the sandwich structure consists offibreglass/epoxy face skins and a mahang wood core. Sandwich composite with core grain orientedin parallel and perpendicular to the flat plane direction were tested for mechanical performance intension, compression and flexure. The results indicate that sandwich composite with grain orientedin parallel direction performed better in tensile properties with strength of 201.98 MPa whereassandwich composite with perpendicular core grain produced a higher value of compressionproperties with strength of 70.11 MPa. However, no significant effect of grain orientation wasobserved in flexural strength. The strength of sandwich composite is dependent on the grainalignment of the wood core as it functions exclusively as mechanical supporting cells to supportthe wood structure.

Notes: The unlamented demise of the common-law derivative action: A note remembering Michael Larkin
Authors: Mongalo Tshepo H
Published: September 2021

This contribution presents an exposition of how the common-law rules relevant to the common-law derivative action would have clashed with the current statutory derivative action remedy had the common law not been repealed by s 165(1) of the Companies Act 71 of 2008. The analysis of the possible impact of the common law is a relevant and timely one — irrespective of the fact that a statutory derivative action and remedy has been introduced in s 165(2) of the Companies Act — as it provides lessons to policy-makers on how to deal effectively with common-law rules whose time has passed and must be eradicated, particularly in corporate law. This is so since the Supreme Court of Appeal judgment in Hlumisa Investment Holdings (RF) Ltd & another v Kirkinis & others 2020 (5) SA 419 (SCA) has recently endorsed previous Constitutional Court judgments which confirmed the continued validity of the common-law principle of statutory interpretation that a statute should not be taken to alter the common law unless it is clear that that is what was intended. The contribution arrives at the conclusion that the limiting effect of English judgments, particularly Edwards v Halliwell [1950] 2 All ER 1064 and Prudential Assurance v Newman Industries (CA) [1982] Ch D 204 would have still been applicable in South Africa, even though they allow for a conservative exception to the rule in Foss v Harbottle in providing for derivative action claims at common law.

INVISIBILIDADE, PARASITISMO E CANIBALISMO: EMBATES DA HEROÍNA ROSÉLIE EM HISTOIRE DE LA FEMME CANNIBALE, DE MARYSE CONDÉ
Authors: Rocha Vanessa Massoni da
Published: September 2021

Este artigo analisa o romance Histoire de la femme cannibale, de 2003, da escritora do arquipélago caribenho de Guadalupe Maryse Condé a partir das premissas do feminismo negro (Djamila Ribeiro) e do feminismo decolonial (Françoise Vergès). Trata-se de observar como a protagonista do romance, Rosélie, tem a trajetória transpassada pela tríade invisibilidade, parasitismo e canibalismo. De origem antilhana, a personagem possui um casamento misto e experiencia um exílio africano, na Cidade do Cabo pós-apartheid. Estas condições lhe impõem a invisibilidade social, a xenofobia e a segregação que ainda vigoram no país sulafricano. Diante do olhar excludente e depreciativo do outro, Rosélie desenvolve uma dinâmica de sobrevivência baseada em ‘parasitar’ o marido, um professor branco de origem irlandesa especialista em literatura. A partir de sua verve de pintora, a personagem aposta nas metáforas do canibalismo – e sua interface com o movimento antropofágico brasileiro – para superar o trauma de viuvez inesperada que lhe força a assumir o protagonismo de sua vida. Análises de entrevistas de Condé e de textos de Evaristo, Adichie, Benjamin, Berry, Andrade, Tremblay, Sourieau, Viala, Migraine-Georges, Glissant, Schœlcher e Figueiredo, entre outros, nos permitirão observar a composição de personagens que aludem à autorrepresentação feminina na contemporaneidade.
A LITERATURA AFRO-BRASILEIRA FEMININA: ANCESTRALIDADE E RENASCIMENTO IDENTITÁRIO NO CONTO DE CRISTIANE SOBRAL
Authors: Coqueiro Wilma Dos Santos
Published: September 2021

A autora Cristiane Sobral, que fez sua estreia na literatura nos Cadernos Negros, em 2000, já é reconhecida nacionalmente por suas coletâneas de poesias e contos e se insere na vertente literária afro-feminina por meio das temáticas abordadas e dos pontos de vistas em seus textos que buscam a afirmação da identidade negra. Com personagens fortes e resistentes aos valores hegemônicos da cultura europeia transplantada no Brasil, suas personagens priorizam suas raízes étnicas ancestrais. Desse modo, nesse artigo, busca-se analisar no conto “Renascença”, que integra a coletânea O tapete voador, de 2016, a relação da protagonista, cujo nome é Teresa, com sua ancestralidade e sexualidade, ao não se render às convenções impostas que a pressionam para um embranquecimento étnico. A análise respalda em autores como, entre outros, Bonnici (2007), Duarte (2008), Santos e Wielewicki (2009), Lugones (2014) e Ribeiro (2017).
NOVOS OLHARES PARA ANTIGAS QUESTÕES: APRECIAÇÕES SOBRE A VIDA E A PRODUÇÃO LITERÁRIA DE JOSÉ JOAQUIM DE CAMPOS LEÃO QORPO-SANTO (1829-1883)
Authors: Gonçalves Maria Clara
Published: September 2021

O escritor gaúcho José Joaquim de Campos Leão (129-1883) produziu entre os anos de 1843 a 1877 um conjunto de variados escritos. Reunidos em 1877, a Ensiqlopédia ou Seis Mezes de uma Enfermidade se estabelece como o projeto literário do escritor, em que constam diversos assuntos transpostos nos mais variados gêneros textuais (poesia, teatro, máximas, etc.). Na obra composta por nove volumes (dos quais apenas seis são conhecidos) percebe-se que Qorpo-Santo procurou criar uma espécie de diário-literário revelador dessa persona santificada e iluminada. O artigo explora a literariedade dessa obra, traçando uma relação entre fatos biográficos de Qorpo-Santo, colhidos de diversos documentos, e as escolhas estéticas que utilizou. Dessa maneira, pretende-se trazer novas reflexões para que seja possível compreender de forma mais ampla as singularidades que permeiam a Ensiqlopédia e a própria figura do escritor.

Statins as anti-pyroptotic agents
Authors: Khalifeh Masoomeh , Penson Peter , Banach Maciej , Sahebkar Amirhossein
Published: September 2021

Introduction

Pyroptosis is a regulated form of cell death, which is often a consequence of the activation of inflammatory caspases.

Material and methods

Appropriate inflammatory responses and the induction of pyroptosis enhance the clearance of pathogens and increase innate immunity.

Results

However, excessive pyroptosis contributes to a hyperinflammatory response and aggravates tissue damage, thereby causing inflammatory diseases. There have been recent reports on the modulation of pyroptosis by statins, which may explain part of the pleiotropic actions of these drugs in inflammatory diseases and cancer.

Conclusions

Herein, the extant evidence for the potential value of statins in targeting pyroptosis in various diseases is reviewed.
Towards a comprehensive assessment system of local government fiscal health
Authors: Kooij Jurriaan , Groot Tom
Published: September 2021

Understanding fiscal health, also commonly referred to as financial condition, is key to sound decision making and the proper functioning of local government. Nonetheless there is no agreed upon way to measure fiscal health. We argue that the use of a conceptual framework is essential in furthering our understanding of measuring and assessing local government fiscal health. In this study we offer a framework and a set of financial accounting indicators visualizing fiscal health on the short and long term, taking into account the existing liabilities and local government obligations towards its constituents. The study draws on the theoretical and empirical analysis of corporate bankruptcy prediction models and local government fiscal distress models. We develop a possible comprehensive set of fiscal health indicators and compare it with existing empirical studies of local government fiscal health.

The model captures current performance in four solvency dimensions (cash, budget, service-level and long term) and allows for predictions of future performance, taking into account risks (predictors of possible future financial stress) and capabilities (opportunities to strengthen future financial health). We tested our model by reviewing 33 empirical studies and found that we could allocate all indicators used to the dimensions of our framework. No empirical study appears to address all dimensions. The selection of performance dimensions is partly driven by the studies’ research objectives.

Conflict resolution in secondary schools in the Phoenix area : management training strategies
Authors:   , Biputh Barathwanth
Published: September 2021

This study focused on conflict resolution in multi-racial , co-educational schools in the Phoenix region and the development of strategies for the training of management and staff to resolve conflict. It has been observed that principals in the Phoenix region frequently seek the intervention of third party adjudicators to resolve conflicts experienced at schools . This often prevents the timeous and expeditious resolution of conflicts . The inability to resolve conflict judiciously impinges on job satisfaction, productivity and human relationships in schools. A literature survey of conflict revealed that conflict in organisations is endemic and inevitable . Conflicts at work, when dealt with systematically , can have positive rather than destructive effects. It is the writer's belief that conflict can be reduced or eliminated if there is a conflict resolution programme in schools which is designed to train both management and staff in conflict resolution. The writer provided a theoretical understanding of conflict through an analysis of the underlying dynamics of conflict , the effects of organisational conflict and the conflict process. The various levels and areas of conflict in schools were examined. The research examined three approaches to conflict management , evaluated the various conflict handling styles and applied these strategies to conflict situations experienced at schools.
Will Your Breast Cancer Patient’s Mortality Go Up in Smoke?
Authors: Mantik David W.
Published: September 2021

Dedicated smokers who receive breast radiation may pay an unexpected price[1]in both recurrence risk and in mortality. Smoking during radiation therapy (RT) noticeably increases (and accelerates) the recurrence risk, but it also increases long-term risks of lung and heart mortality. The recurrence risk probably derives from (temporary) smoking - caused hypoxia. On the other hand, concurrent RT and smoking produces synergistic and permanent heart and lung damage. Tumor cell hypoxia can be exogenous (via smoking) or endogenous (inadequate capillary perfusion) or possibly even environmental (at high altitudes). However it occurs, though, it is a major contributor to treatment failure. Techniques for addressing hypoxia - both currently in the clinic, and on the technological horizon - are briefly reviewed here. These include photoacoustics, FLASH radiotherapy, and Cherenkov - Excited Luminescence Imaging (CELI).
COVID-19 in Kerala: The Dynamics of Spread and Health Index Theory
Authors: Shervani Zameer
Published: September 2021

Background: The number of novel coronavirus cases is different in various states of India. In the second wave, the state of Kerala has the highest number of cases in India. The “Health Index Theory” established first in this article has explained such a high susceptibility of Kerala’s population to the virus.

Methods: The data of sero-survey and health index score have been used to explain the high surge in the cases. The dynamics of the COVID-19 virus spread in Kerala has been applied to study the high virus surge in Kerala.

Results: On February 21, 2021; the caseload share of Kerala was 48% of India’s total cases. The two sero - survey results conducted in August 2020 and December 2020 - January 2021 show that the antibodies prevalence in Kerala’s population was 0.8 and 11.6%, respectively; while India’s national sero-prevalence was 6.6 and 21.0%, respectively.

Conclusions: The higher infection rate in Kerala compared to the other states of India has been interpreted by the first established “Health Index Theory”. The population of Kerala is more susceptible and less immune to the virus compared to other states as the score of Kerala on the health index is the highest. However, better healthcare in Kerala kept the case fatality rate (CFR) lowest in India.

Published: September 2021

This study specifically aimed to make a plan of action on how to reduce the stress level of the Senior High School Students. In order to make a feasible action plan, the researchers determined the stress level and the coping strategies of the male and female students respectively. The researchers used the descriptive method of research. A total of 82 students were the respondents of the study. Adopted questionnaires were utilized in measuring the perceived level of stress and sources of stress of the students. Results showed that both male and female students had an average level of stress. The level of stress of both female and male students is average for academic and financial sources. Moreover, the female students had low level of stress for psychological and health related stressors while the male students had average level for the said stressors. In addition, the results revealed that male and female students had different coping strategies in dealing with stress. Female students always employed spending time with friends, listening to music, eating a lot, going to some places and keeping their faith to their God as coping strategies. On the other hand, male students did not always employ coping strategies when they are stressed. Both male and female students never isolate themselves when are stressed.

Published: September 2021

The purpose of this study was to examine the students’ track and strand preferences after the SOAR (Student Orientation, Awareness, and Redirection) Intervention Program. This action research employed the descriptive quantitative research design using a researcher-made survey questionnaire that were administered to Grade 10 students from Santa Cruz National High School – Junior High School (n=319) and Manuel Francisco C. Ramos Sr. National High School (n=64). Frequency, percentage and ranking were utilized as statistical tool for this study. Results revealed that the majority of respondents opted to enroll at Sta. Cruz National High School – Senior High School. The Humanities and Social Science strand under the Academic Track had the largest number of students who favoured it over the other strands. Furthermore, it was clear that the majority of them chose the Technical Vocational Track over the Academic Track. The findings can be used to improve Career Guidance in the school, especially parents' engagement in their children's career decisions. Similarly, it is suggested that a standardized enrolment process be developed in which students undergo career assessments in order to help direct them in deciding which strand to pursue.

Published: September 2021

Rangeland plant communities respond to environmental changes depending on management practices, climate, topography, and time. The objective of the study was to determine the changes in abundancy of functional plant groups, range condition score, class, and health with different topographical characteristics between 1993 and 2013. Trends in the investigated characteristics changed depending on aspect and topography. While the abundancy of decreaser and increaser plants decreased, invader plant abundancy increased over two decades. Similarly, range condition score, class, and health also declined in this period. The changes in investigated properties showed uneven distribution among the sites due to uncontrolled grazing practices and site characteristics. The results indicated that range degradation has been continued under current grazing practices. Therefore sustainable range management strategies should be put urgently into practice for the conservation of natural resources in the highland hilly rangelands of Turkey.
A INEFICÁCIA DA LEI 10.826 DE 22 DE DEZEMBRO DE 2003 – “ESTATUTO DO DESARMAMENTO” COMO POLÍTICA DE SEGURANÇA PÚBLICA
Authors: Lima Carlos Henrique
Published: September 2021

Este artigo aborda a problemática e polêmica discussão sobre a relação entre a posse e porte de armas e o aumento de crimes violentos, abordando ainda a ineficácia de Lei n. 10.826/03 como política de segurança pública. Será analisado se a Lei de Armas efetivamente cumpriu o papel que lhe embasou, qual seja a redução dos crimes violentos com uso de armas de fogo no Brasil. Para tal análise, foram utilizados dados sobre as taxas anuais de crimes cometidos com uso de armas de fogo disponibilizados pelo IPEA de 2003 a 2019, e ainda estudos elaborados por especialistas no tema, observando-se ainda a possível existência correlação entre o número de armas legalizadas nas mãos da população civil e as taxas criminais anuais. Conclui-se que a luz do caráter restritivo da Lei e da total impossibilidade do Estado de atender todas as demandas no tocante ao dever de policiamento preventivo, a Lei 10.826/03 é absolutamente ineficaz, uma vez que somente surtiu seus efeitos perante a sociedade civil que efetivamente cumpre a lei, não sendo capaz de surtir qualquer efeito positivo sobre a criminalidade, já que inclusive foi observado aumento nas taxas de crimes violentos após a restrição do acesso às armas de fogo, e diminuição das mesmas após leve flexibilização do acesso as armas de fogo, ocorrida no ano de 2019.

Abstract. This study examined the effects of cottonseed processing form and
the inclusion of calcium lignosulfonate in high-concentrate diets for
feedlot cull ewes on carcass traits and non-carcass components. Thirty Santa
Inês cull ewes with an average body weight of 44.2 ± 5.2 kg and an
average age of 50 months were distributed into collective stalls in a
completely randomized design. The treatments consisted of diets including
whole cottonseed, crushed cottonseed, whole cottonseed treated with
lignosulfonate (100 g/kg, as fed), crushed cottonseed treated with
lignosulfonate (100 g/kg, as fed), and a control diet without cottonseed.
The experimental diets did not influence (P>0.05) average daily
weight gain (0.195 kg/day), slaughter weight (51.74 kg), or in vivo biometric and
on-carcass measurements. There was no difference (P>0.05) in
loin-eye area or subcutaneous fat thickness as evaluated in vivo by ultrasound.
There was no diet effect on hot carcass weight and yield (24.8 kg and
47.8 %), cold carcass weight and yield (24.2 kg and 46.8 %), or chilling
loss (2.1 %). Non-carcass components did not differ in response to the
diets (P>0.05). Dietary inclusion of calcium lignosulfonate
increases the proportions of udder and liver relative to empty body weight
(P<0.05). Neither the cottonseed processing method nor the
inclusion of calcium lignosulfonate in high-concentrate diets for cull ewes
affects their performance, biometric or morphometric measurements,
non-carcass components, or qualitative traits of their carcass.

Abstract. Over recent years there have been parallel advances in the development of stratosphere resolving numerical models, our understanding of stratosphere-troposphere interaction and the extension of long-range forecasts to explicitly include the stratosphere. These advances are now allowing new and improved capability in long range prediction. We present an overview of this development and show how the inclusion of the stratosphere in forecast systems aids monthly, seasonal and decadal climate predictions. We end with an outlook towards the future of climate forecasts and identify areas for improvement that could further benefit these rapidly evolving predictions.
