Representing the World, Weathering its End
Authors: Miguel Marlon
Published: September 2020

This chapter explores the intrinsic relationship between weather/weathering and the imaginary of the sea, which features in the work of artist Arthur Bispo do Rosário. Bispo was a black man who spent most of his life in psychiatric institutions. There is an important interplay between his psychotic deliriums and the production of hundreds of objects, many of them ships or forms that relate to the sea. These objects open up a discussion on decoloniality as they are embedded with marks left by the transatlantic slave trade.
Technological Progress in Terrestrial Television Transmitting – Efficiency and Rentability of Introducing DVB-T2 HEVC System inGermany and Croatia
Authors: Galetic Fran
Published: September 2020

Germany and Croatia are among first European countries that have adopted the strategy of switchingfrom DVB-T h.264 system to DVB-T2 h.265 (HEVC) system of broadcasting for terrestrial television. The newerh.265 system has better performance compared to previously h.264 especially in terms of efficiency oftransmitting. On a single frequency, h.265 enables much more data flow, which means more channels and/orbetter quality of transmitting. This paper investigates the efficiency and rentability of such transition andcompares Germany as s big and Croatia as a small European country. The aim of the analysis is to show thebackground for such a technological change in these two countries and to compare it having in mind the differenceof capacities necessary for terrestrial transmission. This switch to the DVB-T2 HEVC system represents theclassical example of technological progress in practice, and is especially interesting in the period when othercountries are setting up strategies for the future of terrestrial television transmission.
CONFLICTOS RECIENTES ENTRE EL TJUE Y LOS TRIBUNALES NACIONALES ALREDEDOR DEL PRINCIPIO DE PRIMACÍA
Authors: López Parada Rafael Antonio
Published: September 2020

El principio de primacía del Derecho de la Unión fue establecido por el Tribunal de Justicia de la Unión Europea de forma muy amplia. Ya hace muchos años el Tribunal Constitucional alemán planteó dudas acerca del conflicto entre ese principio de primacía y la Constitución nacional. El Tratado de Lisboa introdujo la jurisprudencia del TJUE sobre el principio de primacía dentro de los Tratados y además lo aplica a la Carta de Derechos Fundamentales de la Unión Europea. Por otra parte el máximo intérprete del Derecho de la Unión es el propio TJUE, por lo cual también su jurisprudencia tiene primacía sobre el Derecho interno. Desde el Tratado de Maastricht la legitimación del Derecho de la Unión se fundamenta en el principio de atribución. Por tanto teóricamente la primacía se aplicaría solamente en el ámbito de las competencias asumidas por las instituciones de la UE. Pero en la práctica no es así, porque la forma de distribuir las competencias entre la UE y los Estados miembros supone que existen numerosos fenómenos de entrelazamiento, tanto desde el punto de vista de la validez como de la interpretación. Debido a ello están proliferando los conflictos entre el TJUE y los órganos judiciales supremos nacionales (Tribunales Supremos y Tribunales Constitucionales). En este trabajo analizamos algunos de los más importantes ocurridos en los últimos años.
LA “INTEGRACIÓN” DEL DERECHO DE LA UNIÓN EUROPEA EN LOS PROCEDIMIENTOS CONSTITUCIONALES DEL TRIBUNAL CONSTITUCIONAL ESPAÑOL
Authors: Santana Herrera María Soledad
Published: September 2020

Principalmente, este ensayo observa cómo se está originando una mayor integración del Derecho de la Unión Europea a través de una “cierta” transformación de los procedimientos constitucionales, desde la entrada en vigor del Tratado de Lisboa. Gracias a esto, se percibe una mejoría de las garantías del proceso debido del art. 24 de la Constitución española, a los efectos de la aplicación del Derecho de la Unión Europea en la esfera vital de las personas. Al fin, está sucediendo una mayor involucración del Tribunal Constitucional para favorecer la armonización del Derecho nacional como parte de la Unión Europea, en aras de ofrecer mayores garantías de certeza y seguridad jurídica a las personas dentro del territorio español.
Miksi Suomesta tuli vuosikymmeniksi jääkiekko- mutta ei jalkapallomaa?
Authors: Nevala Arto , Isotalo Kimmo , Itkonen Hannu
Published: September 2020

Suomen miesten ja naisten jääkiekkomaajoukkueet ovat pelanneet lajin arvoturnauksissa vuosikymmenten ajan. Jalkapallossa miehet selviytyivät ensimmäisen kerran arvokisojen lopputurnaukseen vasta syksyllä 2019. Naiset onnistuivat tässä kahdesti jo 2000-luvun alussa, mutta se ei muuta kokonaiskuvaa; Suomi on jääkiekkomaa.

Artikkelissa lähestymme Suomen jalkapallo-jääkiekko -asetelmaa historiallisen muutoksen näkökulmasta. Peruskysymyksemme on, miksi Suomesta tuli jääkiekkomaa, eikä jalkapallomaa. Analysoimme, mitkä ovat olleet lajien kehityksien keskeisiä muutos- ja murroskohtia. Tavoitteenamme on ajoittaa yhtäläisyyksiä, mutta ennen kaikkea erojen syntymistä. Siksi jaksotamme nykytilanteeseen johtaneen kehityksen kolmeen aikakauteen, jotka kiinnitämme suomalaisen yhteiskunnan modernisoitumiseen, liikuntakulttuurin muutokseen sekä kansainvälisen toimintaympäristön murrokseen.

Jääkiekko ja jalkapallo kehittyivät ensimmäisessä vaiheessa 1960-luvulle asti samantyylisesti ja lajien toiminta oli monilta osin hapuilevaa ja vaatimatonta. Jääkiekon irtiotto muihin lajeihin ajoittui kahteen toisen maailmansodan jälkeisen Suomen isoon rakennemuutokseen. 1960- ja 1970-luvuilla jääkiekko hyödynsi teollistumisen ja palveluistumisen, vaurastumisen, kaupungistumisen sekä kulutusyhteiskuntaan siirtymisen luoman uuden urheilukulttuurisen potentiaalin parhaiten. Se kehitti harrastusoloja, ammattimaisti ennakkoluulottomasti toimintaansa ja loi modernisoituvaan yhteiskuntaan sopineen konseptin.

 

Näin jääkiekko oli hyvässä kunnossa, kun vanhojen rakenteiden purkautuminen ja markkinallistuminen muuttivat Suomea 1990-luvulta lähtien. Lajin toimintamekanismit vastasivat jo monelta osin uuden ajan vaatimuksia. Lisäksi urheilun järjestökentän sekasorto ja kansainvälinen menestys vahvistivat jääkiekon asemaa. Näin laji onnistui toistamiseen hyödyntämään yhteiskunnallisen muutoksen luoman uudenlaisen tilanteen ja tekemään eroa muihin lajeihin, myös jalkapalloon.

We present high-resolution Magellan/MIKE spectroscopy of 42 red giant stars in seven stellar streams confirmed by the Southern Stellar Stream Spectroscopic Survey (S
5): ATLAS, Aliqa Uma, Chenab, Elqui, Indus, Jhelum, and Phoenix. Abundances of 30 elements have been derived from over 10,000 individual line measurements or upper limits using photometric stellar parameters and a standard LTE analysis. This is currently the most extensive set of element abundances for stars in stellar streams. Three streams (ATLAS, Aliqa Uma, and Phoenix) are disrupted metal-poor globular clusters, although only weak evidence is seen for the light-element anticorrelations commonly observed in globular clusters. Four streams (Chenab, Elqui, Indus, and Jhelum) are disrupted dwarf galaxies, and their stars display abundance signatures that suggest progenitors with stellar masses ranging from 106 to 107
M
⊙. Extensive description is provided for the analysis methods, including the derivation of a new method for including the effect of stellar parameter correlations on each star’s abundance and uncertainty. This paper includes data gathered with the 6.5 m Magellan Telescopes located at Las Campanas Observatory, Chile.

Density of resonances for covers of Schottky surfaces
Authors: Pohl Anke , Soares Louis
Published: September 2020

We investigate how bounds of resonance counting functions for Schottky surfaces behave under transitions to covering surfaces of finite degree. We consider the classical resonance counting function asking for the number of resonances in large (and growing) disks centered at the origin of

\mathcal C

, as well as the (fractal) resonance counting function asking for the number of resonances in boxes near the axis of the critical exponent. For the former counting function we provide a transfer-operator-based proof that bounding constants can be chosen such that the transformation behavior under transition to covers is as for the Weyl law in the case of surfaces of finite area. For the latter counting function we deduce a bound in terms of the covering degree and the minimal length of a periodic geodesic on the covering surface. This yields an improved fractal Weyl upper bound. In the setting of Schottky surfaces, these estimates refine previous results due to Guillopé–Zworski and Guillopé–Lin–Zworski. When applied to principal congruence covers, these results yield new estimates for the resonance counting functions in the level aspect, which have recently been investigated by Jakobson–Naud. The techniques used in this article are based on the thermodynamic formalism for L-functions (twisted Selberg zeta functions), and twisted transfer operators.

Dalam dunia penerbangan banyak aspek yang mendukung untuk terjadinya suatu penerbangan yang aman dan lancar hingga dapat menghubungkan perjalanan antar pulau bahkan benua. Jika berbicara mengenai penerbangan pasti yang terlintas adalah peswat yang mengudara secara teratur di udara, namun untuk mengudaranya pesawat tersebut secara teratur perlu seorang pemandu yang memastikan kegiatan penerbangan dalam keadaan lancar dan aman. Pemandu lalu lintas udara atau air traffic controller (ATC) ialah seorang yang memastikan dan memandu pesawat saat berada di daratan maupun saat mengudara, ATC bertugas memberikan informasi yang dibutuhkan pilot, seperti informasi cuaca, navigasi penerbangan, dan lalu lintas udara. Ia juga bertugas memandu pilot untuk menaikan, menurunkan, atau  membelokkan pesawat. ATC harus siap memandu pesawat dalam cuaca panas ataupun hujan sekalipun. Keadaaan cuaca dan hujan dapat sangat berpengaruh terhadap kegiatan penerbanngan. Hal ini desebabkan dari runway yang merupakan hal utama dalam suatu bandar udara. Runway tersebut digunakan untuk kegiatan take off dan landingnya pesawat. Jika hujan terjadi maka kondisi runway akan basah dan saat runway basah sangat berisiko terhadap kegiatan pesawat apalagi jika terdapat genangan air yang berada di runway. Hal tersebut dapat mengakibatkan terjadinya musibah tergelincir, maka untuk mencegah terjadinya hal tersebut perlu adanya alat standing water detector yang saat ini belum tersedia di bandar udara El Tari, Kupang. Alat tersebut digunakan untuk memberikan informasi mengenai ketinggian air di runway

Authors: Lake Jennifer D , Brown Thomas E R , Vu Kathy , Tadrous Mina
Published: September 2020

Objective: To evaluate if applicants selecting internet-based interviews (iMMI) have the same probability for admission as traditional on-site interviews (MMI).
Methods: This was a retrospective cohort study of all applicants between 2014 and 2017 using routinely collected data. Logistic regression was used to compare the odds of admission and models were adjusted for potential confounders. Confounders which were significant in the univariate analysis were selected for the multivariate model. Analysis was performed using XLSTAT.
Results: There were 238 applicants. Admission rate was not different between iMMI and MMI applicants. Eight-four percent (84%) of applicants in iMMI and 80% in MMI were admitted leading to a crude odds ratio (OR) of 1.4 (95% CI 0.7 - 2.7) and an adjusted OR of 1.2 (95% CI 0.5 - 2.8).
Conclusions: This study demonstrated similar admission rates suggesting that iMMI may be a viable option for wider use. This process may improve admission procedures for hard-to-reach applicants in pharmacy programmes.
The law of the synergy and hygiene lighting (literature review)
Authors: Kaptsov Valery A. , Deynego Vitaly N.
Published: September 2020

The previously formulated laws of light hygiene, which allow analyzing the results of the complex impact of stimuli of different nature on the biological object, should be supplemented by the Q-law and the law of synergy. The analysis of the action of the law of synergy in the melatonin-glutamate system is carried out and the General relations characterizing the effect of the synergy of influences are considered. In violation of the Krebs cycle, glutamate can accumulate in the intercellular space. This is a manifestation of the Q-law effect in the glutamate synthesis system in the “neuron-astrocyte” system, which can not only be synthesized in the presence of glucose but also come from food. Astrocytes are important for the whole system, because they provide nutrition to the nervous tissue, contribute to the emergence and formation of the blood-brain barrier. The blood-brain barrier acts as a kind of vacuum cleaner, absorbing excess glutamate and withdrawing it into the systemic circulation, where it does not have a damaging effect. With an excess of dietary glutamate in the blood, there is a decrease in the efficiency of the blood-brain barrier to maintain the optimal level of synthesized glutamate. The effectiveness of glutamate is influenced by melatonin, which provides protection against neurotoxicity caused by glutamate. A system of subtypes of melatonin receptors in functional structures of the eye, the neurotransmitter of which is glutamate and GABA (gamma-aminobutyric acid), is considered. The effects of the Q-law and the law of synergy are demonstrated on a system in which the stimuli acting on neurons include a dose of light, a dose of melatonin, and a dose of glutamate. The cycle of glutamate in neurons obeys the Q-law, and its total dose is formed from both food and synthesized from glucose in the body of glutamate. The complex effect of the total dose of glutamate and melatonin on the sensitivity of ganglion cells obeys the law of synergy. To maintain the synergy effect in the “spectrum of light-melatonin-glutamate” system, it is necessary to comply with many hygienic requirements for maintaining the optimal glutamate cycle (minimizing the dose of dietary glutamate and sugar consumption), the spectral composition of light and the level of cellular melatonin in mitochondria.
Digital/Cashless Economy: The Changing Landscape of India
Authors: Kumar Shivangee
Published: September 2020

Digital/ Cashless banking has become talk of the town recently. People are opting for digital payments using mobile applications/wallets instead of cash and GOI/RBI is also promoting it through various schemes and incentivisation. This mode of payments has actually changed the dynamics of consumer and corporate relationships with their banks. Now, instead of taking out cash from our wallets, we open our mobile wallets to make payments or transfer money to someone. We do not wait for the bank branch to open and stand in long queues for getting our cash deposited in account neither we wait to withdraw cash. Likewise, we do not count cash at shopping counters and make the payment in a flash using our debit/ credit card. All this is possible because of the innovation in IT and its optimum utilization by our banks. The present paper will give an idea about what is this buzz word “Digital/ Cashless Banking” and how has it changed the banking relationships these days.

Authors: Obwoge Dr. Hezekiah , Nandi Prof. O.M.J.
Published: September 2020

Purpose: The purpose of the study was to assess the role of the Faith Based Organizations in alleviating poverty in Western Kenya.Methodology: This study is a cross-sectional research that sought to give an examining and descriptive scrutiny of the death beliefs surrounding FBO’s activities in Emuhaya District. This study targeted Emuhaya District which has a population of 180,000 people who are members of the FBO’s. To obtain data for analysis, qualitative methods of data collection, which include in-depth oral interviews, focus group discussion, observation and documentary analysis, were employed. Questionnaires were prepared and administered according to the information required from the specific groups of respondents. This study utilized secondary sources, which were derived from published books, minutes of developmental meetings in the FBO, reports of the development projects of the church, articles and records from Kenya National Archives. Data collected through the questionnaires and personal interviews, was synthesized systematically and logically compiled to determine the role of FBO in alleviating poverty in Emuhaya District. Data was coded manually and organized under different themes. The researcher then investigated the concepts of liberation and reconstruction in improving the well-being of the poor through an analysis and interpretation of the theological methods of induction (TMI).Results: Based on the findings the study concluded that the CoG-K’s teachings are largely pertinent in the development of FBO members and their participation in activities that are designed along people’s development needs. Also, the CoG-K has a role to play through her programs like Sisi kwa Sisi and Child Development Centres.Unique contribution to theory, practice and policy: This research recommends that if Emuhaya District is to develop, it has to place the FBO teachings and theology of option for the poor at the top of the agenda and to consider it as is so often the case, as adjunct to the real core of the work that is, development. The study proposes that for the FBO to improve her input in social concerns of the people, it should reshape its theology of development so that it can fully address the plight of the poor.
