ESG Challenges in the Construction of UK Balanced Portfolios for Private Investors:
An Analysis of the Availability and Performance of ESG Funds Across Various Asset Classes
Authors: Schmidt Jacob H. , McCann Charlie
Published: January 2022

Abstract

Environmental, Social and Governance (ESG) and sustainability investing have become very popular with institutional, family office and more recently, retail investors. In the UK the range of ESG and sustainable funds for retail and high net worth (HNW) investors is still relatively small but growing fast. This paper studies both the supply side and risk-adjusted performance of ESG funds for UK retail investors.
Based on secondary data from the Financial Express (FE) Analytics database the authors find that funds in the equity, bond and multi-asset sector are investable, from qualitative as well as quantitative perspectives, but property, alternative and other asset classes are still underdeveloped. Choosing ESG objectives has provided better risk-adjusted returns over the long-term for the retail investor, but with a tilt towards the quality growth factor as ESG favors these sectors over typical old economy value. These findings are robust with top quartile rankings and the consistently higher Sharpe ratios over a 3-year period for the equity sectors. Due to the scarcity of bond funds and other diversifiers, portfolio construction is constrained. The authors predict that over time, availability of ESG funds in alternative asset classes will grow in line with demand.

Authors:   Scientific committee Electrohomoeopathy foundation Mumbai India, Pandey Surendra , Mogra Achala ,   Director – Dr. Achala’s Elixir, Rajasthan and member scientific committee EHF India
Published: January 2022

The beginnings of modern scientific ideas are frequently overlooked in today’s scientific education. We were curious about how early philosophers combined the ancient tradition of alchemy with rational thought and reasoning to lay the groundwork for modern scientific disciplines like chemistry and physics. Alchemy, the forerunner of modern chemistry, inspired the development of several scientific principles and experimental procedures that form the cornerstone of empirical science. It has been postulated that Alchemy had philosophical, astronomical, and religious foundations. It went beyond empirical science to grasp the complexities of nature by merging spirituality with experimental observation. Alchemy was obsessed with creating new materials, such as transforming basic metals into valuable metals like gold. In this article, we are going to discuss a scientific approach for the preparation of Electrohomoeopathy remedies via the Cohobation process with the authentication of modern Alchemy. Here we have also discussed Alchemical Cohobation. This article also included a pre-chemistry alchemy technique of multiple distillations, myths, facts, scientific evidence, and philosophy behind tria-prima, the three alchemy primes, and their importance in creating the Electrohomeopathy plant extracts and their potential effects on the human body.

Published: January 2022

Background: Rapid industrialization and indiscriminate use of chemical fertilizers and pesticides in agriculture are causing heavy and varied pollution in aquatic environment leading to deterioration of water quality and depletion of aquatic biota. Drinking water that contain high amount of heavy metals is a serious threat to the health of humans. People are exposed primarily to heavy metals through water consumption; however, few heavy metals can bioaccumulate in the body and may induce cancer and other risks. The objectives of this study are to assess the quality of packaged water marketed in Abuja metropolis and to compare the level of conformance to quality standards based on different processing technologies employed by packaged water manufacturers in the treatment of raw water. Methods: Different samples of both sachet and bottled water along with their raw water were randomly collected from different water production companies, coded and analyzed using the flame system of the atomic absorption spectrophotometer (AAS) for elemental contents and also compare results based on production processes from the different companies. Results: The results obtained showed that 13.3% of the raw water sample were contaminated with lead, 46.7% of the samples contain nickel above WHO limit, while 40% of the sample had concentration of cadmium above the WHO limit. Conclusion: The study showed that the reverse osmosis and activated carbon filtration technique are highly efficient in removing unwanted particles/ contaminants. The study further revealed that some of the finish product had substantial amount of metals which are above WHO and NAFDAC limit for drinking water.

Authors: Khan Farah Gul , Awan Safia , Namran Sidra , Baqir Syed Mujtaba
Published: January 2022

Objective: To evaluate causes of community-acquired and hospital-acquired acute kidney injury and the factors associated with increased inpatient mortality.
Method: The observational prospective study was conducted at the Aga Khan University Hospital, Karachi, from September 2018 to March 2019, and comprised patients having acute kidney injury either at the time of admission in group A or developed it after 48 hours of hospital stay in group B. The patients were followed up for 12 weeks and outcomes were categorised as recovered, developed chronic kidney disease, died or remained dialysis-dependent. Data was analysed using SPSS 19.
Results: Of the 400 patients, 347(86.8%) were in group A; 190(54.8%) males and 157(45.2%) females with an overall mean age of 57.2±17.0 years. The remaining 53(13.3%) were in group B; 31(58.5%) males and 22(41.5%) females with an overall mean age of 58.5±16.3 years. Urinary tract infection 105(30.3%) was the most frequent cause in group A, followed by volume depletion 73(21%). The causes in group B were multiple, with nephrotoxic antibiotics vancomycin 21(39.6%) and polymyxin 20(37.7%) being the most common. At 12 weeks, 224(56%) patients recovered, 55(13.8%) died, 82(20.5%) and 38(9.5%) developed new onset and progressive chronic kidney disease, respectively, and 1(0.25%) patient remained dialysis-dependent.  Chronic liver disease, renin angiotensin system inhibitors, infection, shock, invasive ventilation and increasing length of stay were associated with increased inpatient mortality (p<0.05).
Conclusion: Acute kidney injury was largely community-acquired, and infection was the leading cause with better outcome in contrast to hospital-acquired acute kidney injury which was mostly multifactorial.

Authors: KUZNETSOV Vladimir , BREL Andrei , KUZNETSOVA Tatyana , SERAVINA Tatyana , MIGACHEV Igor , DONETS Alexander , KUDRYAVTSEVA Nelly , BOGOSLAVETS Nikolay , ELSHINA Svetlana
Published: January 2022

It was found that the Noyon-Tologoi deposit located within the Priargunskaya mineragenic zone belongs to the pyrite-polymetallic (Nojon-Tologoj) formation type in volcanogenic associations (VMS). The deposit ore is hosted by the Middle-Upper Jurassic terrigenous-volcanogenic rocks combined in a volcanogenic-siliceous-terrigenous unit. The volcanogenic section is characterized by predominance of intermediate volcanics ranging from moderately alkaline to low alkaline series. Beresites form as a result of the metasomatic transformation of the Noyon-Tologoi volcanosedimentary rocks. Within the deposit, polymetallic mineralization is concentrated in the main ore-bearing areas: Central, Southeast, East and Southwest. Silver-polymetallic mineralization is represented by multilayer veinlet, veinlet-nest-disseminated and disseminated sulfide ore zones, which can also cut host volcanosedimentary rocks. Veins and lenses of the first tens of centimeters thick composed of massive sulfide aggregates are less developed. The main ore minerals are pyrite, sphalerite, galena, arsenopyrite and tetrahedrite; minor minerals are lead and silver sulfosalts, jamsonite, marcasite, chalcopyrite and bournonite. The hydrothermal system of the Noyon-Tologoi deposit formed in response to underwater volcanism and is described by a convective-recycling model.
Thermohydraulic effect as a possible reason for natural diamonds formation and its manifestation conditions
Authors: LIKHACHEV Alexander
Published: January 2022

It is shown that diamond formation can be associated with the manifestation of the thermohydraulic effect, the explosive water reaction to the impulse action of ultrahigh temperatures (kimberlite magmas). The process simultaneously destroys the “old” diamonds and creates the “new” ones, with possible synthesis and preservation of idiomorphic diamond crystals. The issues of the process occurrence in natural conditions are considered. The general pattern in diamond deposits distribution is noted, which is their preferable confinement to non-magnetic and weakly magnetic fields of the Earth’s crust; these fields are characterized by a reducing environment favorable for diamonds and other minerals formation.

Kada nastupi socijalni rizik, odnosno smrt hranioca porodice koji je bio
osiguranik ili korisnik penzije, članovi njegove porodice su, kao povjerioci socijalno-pravnog odnosa, ovlašteni da od Zavoda, odnosno Fonda za penzijsko i invalidsko osiguranje, kao dužnika, traže izvršenje socijalne prestacije. Da bi članovi porodice ostvarili pravo na porodičnu penziju nakon smrti hranioca porodice potrebno
je da budu ispunjeni opći uvjeti na strani umrle osobe i posebni uslovi na strani članova njegove porodice. I jedni i drugi uvjeti podjednako su važni, jer neispunjavanje
bilo kojeg od tih uvjeta čini prepreku za ostvarivanje prava na porodičnu penziju.

Las utopías americanas de fray Francisco Quiñones
Authors: Paniagua Pérez Jesús
Published: January 2022

Este artículo intenta poner de manifiesto las ideas utópicas del franciscano Francisco de Quiñones, que llego a ser cardenal de la Santa Cruz. Su pensamiento, con raigambre en algunas corrientes medievales y modernas, sin olvidar las de la Reforma, pero principalmente en el franciscanismo y cristianismo primitivos, trató de aplicarlas en la Nueva España con la intención de poner aquellos territorios bajo una misma autoridad tanto en lo espiritual como en lo temporal, lo que finalmente no pudo llevar a efecto. En esa utopía eran fundamentales la pobreza, la humildad y el sentido de autoridad, concebida como una delegación de Cristo. Para ello se ha consultado documentación de los archivos de Indias y Simancas y algunos trabajos publicados, de manera especial los de Meseguer Fernández, el autor franciscano que más ha profundizado en la trayectoria del que fuera el gran promotor de la misionología franciscana para América. Nos encontraremos, por tanto, con una utopía irrealizable, que entraba en contradicción con las ideas políticas y los intereses de Carlos I, pero que implicaba en sí misma una renovación para el desarrollo de un mundo mejor, regido por la Orden de San Francisco. El propio Quiñones parece que fue abandonando sus propios sentimientos iniciales al tiempo que se incardinó en altos cargos eclesiásticos, como veremos en el desarrollo de este trabajo.
ESCOLA SEM PARTIDO NA AGENDA EDUCACIONAL DO GOVERNO BOLSONARO
Authors: REZENDE Lucas FELICETTI
Published: January 2022

A eleição de Bolsonaro, aliado histórico do movimento Escola sem Partido (ESP), abriu espaço para novas pautas na agenda educacional. Tal abertura poderia significar o alçar do ESP e de suas pautas às decisões governamentais. Assim, o presente artigo busca evidenciar se o ESP tem papel relevante na construção da agenda educacional do governo Bolsonaro. A metodologia se dará por análises de reportagens, publicações nas redes sociais digitais de atores envolvidos e documentos oficiais. Como resultado, percebe-se a pouca relevância do ESP na delimitação da agenda, apesar da adoção de suas pautas pelo governo.
A MODERNIDADE ENQUANTO SISTEMA POLÍTICO DO OCIDENTE, PERSPECTIVAS DOS AGENTES HEGEMÔNICOS DO PODER COLONIAL

Published: January 2022

Marx (1852) cita hegel afirmando que todos os fatos de grande importância na “história” do mundo ocorrem duas vezes, acrescentando que hegel esqueceu de dizer que na primeira vez como tragédia e na segunda como farsa. algo que tem me chamado atenção nas novas dinâmicas do mundo, as novas falas “inovadoras”, me lembra a revisão sobre colonialismo feita pelo pensador chatterjee, muito lido dentro da antropologia da política e temido, em meu ver, pelas escolas mais conservadoras. chatterjee(2004) partindo de recortes político-sociais da índia enquanto colônia, e “pós-colonia”, realizando uma leitura de mundo que traz aspectos curiosos, pouco explorados nas escolas latino-americanas, onde o suposto fim do imperial europeu não foi uma ressaca do poder colonial, mas sim, um encerramento estratégico que tem usa formação enquanto hegemonia na própria modernidade formulada por ele.
CRISTIANISMO, EXISTÊNCIA E INDIVIDUAÇÃO: A FILOSOFIA-ANTROPOLÓGICA DE KIERKEGAARD
Authors: Cruz Walace Alexsander
Published: January 2022

Søren Kierkegaard, teólogo e filósofo dinamarquês do século XIX foi um cristão que contestou o cristianismo. Assim como Lutero no século XVI, o pensador nórdico protestou contra a cristandade e, a seu modo, promoveu uma nova reforma na vida interior do cristianismo. Kierkegaard luta contra a cristandade na tentativa de resgatar o que ele denominava de crístico. Ao contrário do que se cria em seu tempo, o cristianismo não estava na institucionalidade da Igreja, tampouco, em seus clérigos. Kierkegaard relativiza até mesmo a Bíblia ao relegar a experiência cristã a uma relação em que o indivíduo está posto sozinho diante do Absoluto, sem quaisquer mediações à exceção do próprio Cristo. O pensador de Copenhague entende como tarefa central da existência tornar-se si mesmo, quer dizer, individuar-se. Mas, segundo avalia, isso só é possível no mergulho do homem no Poder Absoluto que o criou; significa que a identidade do indivíduo está no SER. Portanto, para Kierkegaard, muito além de uma religião, o cristianismo é em seu sentido mais profundo, um caminho de individuação. Nosso artigo objetiva analisar como Kierkegaard elabora essa tese.

Authors: De Abreu Francileudo Santos , Da Silva Junior Geraldo Bezerra
Published: January 2022

Objetivo:Investigar as características sociodemográficas, ocupacionais e de morbidade dos servidores que tiveram licenças por transtorno mental e comportamental (TMC), bem como as associações dessas características com o afastamento precoce. Métodos: Estudo longitudinal (coorte retrospectiva), realizado no Instituto Federal de Educação do Ceará (IFCE), com vistas ao delineamento do perfil epidemiológico dos servidores afastados por TMC (n=250), no período de 2010 a 2018, e as associações das características epidemiológicas (sexo, grupo do cargo, local de trabalho, tempo na instituição, estado civil, faixa etária e remuneração) com o afastamento precoce, através das curvas de sobrevivência de Kaplan-Meier. Resultados: Ocorreram 684 afastamentos por TMC em 250 servidores (incidência de 4,9%), resultando em 22.409 dias perdidos de trabalho (DAW) e efeitos financeiros de aproximadamente R$ 6.845.220. Houve um aumento na quantidade de afastamentos, de DAW e da taxa de incidência de servidores afastados ao longo do período do estudo. O grupo dos transtornos do humor (F30-F39) da CID-10 apresentou-se como a principal causa de afastamento por TMC (n=367; 53,6%) e DAW (13.057). A análise de sobrevida mostrou afastamento precoce nos servidores do interior, solteiros, com faixa etária de 18 a 39 anos, tempo de serviço na instituição de até 9 anos e classe econômica C. Conclusão: Houve crescimento no IFCE, entre 2010 e 2018, dos afastamentos, dos DAW e da incidência de servidores afastados por TMC, com predominância dos transtornos do humor, os quais geraram efeitos financeiros elevados para a instituição. Evidenciou-se associação positiva entre algumas características sociodemográficas e o afastamento precoce por TMC.

Sultan II. Abdülhamid Dönemi Eğitim Politikasından Yansımalar: Arşiv Belgeleri Işığında Aşiret Mektebi ve Arnavut Öğrenciler
Authors: YAVAŞ Mesut
Published: January 2022

Aşiret Mektebi, Osmanlı Devleti’ndeki aşiretlere mensup çocukların eğitimi amacıyla Sultan II. Abdülhamid tarafından 1892 yılında İstanbul’da açıldı. Avrupalı Devletlerin XIX. yüzyıldan itibaren Osmanlı Devleti’ni parçalama faaliyetleri çerçevesinde yürüttüğü politikalar, bu mektebin kuruluşunda etkili oldu. Avrupalı büyük güçler, Balkanlardaki gayrimüslimlerden sonra devletin Türk olmayan Müslüman unsurlarını da kışkırtarak onları devletten koparmak istediler. Onların bu yöndeki faaliyetlerinin özellikle Araplar üzerinde yoğunlaşması, Sultan II. Abdülhamid’i harekete geçirdi. O, Avrupalıların bu girişimlerine karşılık aşiret yapısının hâkim olduğu bölgelerde aşiret reisleri ile yönetim arasında somut ve sağlam bir bağın kurulması gerektiğine inanmaktaydı. Böyle bir bağın, aşiret çocuklarının eğitimi için açılacak bir mektep sayesinde mümkün olabileceğini düşündü ve mektebin açılması talimatını verdi. Mektepte ilk olarak yalnızca Arap aşiret reisleri çocuklarının tahsili amaçlandı. Fakat daha sonraki yıllarda Doğu Anadolu’daki ve Arnavutların yoğun olarak yaşadıkları bölgelerdeki aşiretlerden de öğrenci kabul edildi. Böylece Arap, Arnavut ve diğer aşiret reisleri çocukları Aşiret Mektebi çatısı altında bir araya getirildi. Bu çalışma, Sultan II. Abdülhamid’in bir projesi olan Aşiret Mektebini arşiv belgelerine dayanarak Arnavutlar üzerinden ele almaktadır. Bu bağlamda Arnavutların yoğun olarak yaşadıkları Kosova, İşkodra, Manastır ve Yanya vilayetlerinde Arnavut öğrencilerin mektebe kazandırılması esnasında yaşananlar, seçilen öğrencilerin öğrenimleri sürecindeki gelişmeler ve Aşiret Mektebi mezunu Arnavutların istihdamları arşiv belgeleri ışığında ortaya konulmaya çalışılmıştır.

The maqashid al-shari’a approach will provide an understanding of Islamic Law that is more practical, realistic, flexible, and humanist. The values that can be applied in the rehabilitation process method adhere to the current maqashid values formulated by Jasser Auda, which are the development of the classical maqashid al-shari’a values developed by al-Syatibi.

Abstract

After World War II, an estimated five million people were on the move in Czechoslovakia. Between 1954 and 1970, over 16,000 of them immigrated to Australia. This paper is part of a larger research project that provides an in-depth inquiry of the lived experiences of 18 post-World War II emigrants from Czechoslovakia, who are now Australian citizens. Findings reveal emigrants’ significant emotional reflections about their life in Czechoslovakia and provide vivid phenomenological accounts of their views about their original country’s political and economic context and life within it, as well as challenges related to leaving the country and their lived experiences as displaced persons in foreign countries and Displaced Persons camps.
Los factores posibilitadores y las expresiones de la violencia en los noventa
Authors: Cruz José Miguel
Published: January 2022

La violencia que vive El Salvador en la actualidad no surge de la nada. Este país centroamericano ha reunido en la posguerra toda una serie de condiciones que han posibilitado la exacerbación de la agresividad institucionalizada. A pesar de que la historia salvadoreña muestra que la violencia ha estado siempre presente en diversas modalidades, el prolongado conflicto bélico acrecentó la ya existente cultura de violencia; además en la era de la paz, el país ha tenido que lidiar con unos aparatos de justicia y seguridad principiantes y no del todo eficientes; finalmente, la ingente cantidad de armamento ha contribuido también al descontrol de los índices delincuenciales. Este artículo desarrolla además algunas caracterizaciones de la violencia criminal en la actualidad.

Authors:   , Boodhoo Vilash
Published: January 2022

The purpose of this study was to determine the efficacy of muscle energy technique in the treatment of chronic mechanical neck pain. This was a randomized placebo controlled study. Two groups of thirty subjects from Durban and the surrounding areas were selected to participate in the study, which was carried out at the Technikon Natal Chiropractic Day Clinic. Subjects were diagnosed with the condition by the researcher. Each subject received six treatments within a period of three weeks. Group A received muscle energy technique and de-tuned laser therapy applied to joint fixations. Group B received de-tuned laser therapy applied to the fixated areas. Subjective assessment was by means of the Short-Form McGill Pain Questionnaire and the Numerical Pain Rating Scale-101. Objective assessment was by means of the digital algometer (The Commander\x99 Algometer by Jtech Medical Industries) and the Cervical Range of Motion Device. Both the subjective and objective readings were taken prior to the first treatment and a day following the final (sixth) treatment.
Emiliano Zapata: 100 años, 100 fotos / Emiliano Zapata: 100 years, 100 photographs

Este catálogo recoge una serie de exposiciones (Colombia, México, Estados Unidos y el Reino Unido) que conmemoraron el centenario del asesinato de Emiliano Zapata (1879-1919), mediante la instalación artística de una serie de fotografías provenientes de la Colección Gustavo Casasola y otros acervos públicos y privados mexicanos. Aunque hoy Zapata es una suerte de imagen emblemática de la Revolución mexicana e impulsó la más importante de sus agendas (el agrarismo), hasta su muerte fue visto, incluso por otros revolucionarios, como una suerte de oscuro “Atila” enemigo de la civilización. Muchas fotografías de la época pretendieron ilustrar el salvajismo, suciedad y violencia irracional de los zapatistas. Luego, el Estado mexicano devino “zapatista” y se apropió de esas reivindicaciones sociales e hizo uso mediático de las imágenes de esos “otros” que alegaba representar. La rememoración nacionalista de Zapata paradójicamente sepulta la tradición de los oprimidos (damos cuenta de esto en el catálogo). En contraste, presentamos una serie de imágenes anómalas como las tomadas por los propios zapatistas, así como varias de mujeres e incluso de un revolucionario zapatista transgénero que problematizan las representaciones tradicionales de la Revolución. Este catálogo quiere desplegar una política de la empatía con quienes, como Zapata, quisieron descarrilar el tren de mil injusticias que siguen sucediendo. Antes que la conmemoración de una muerte, quisiéramos recuperar la potencia afectiva de la memoria visual para celebrar la vida y los reclamos de quienes fueron puestos en la fosa común de la historia o sepultados—como Zapata—bajo pesados monumentos.
Le contexte de la pandémie mondiale comme possible source d’innovation : apprentissage expansif et résolution de contradictions
Authors: Gagnon-Tremblay Aude , Turcotte Jessy
Published: January 2022

La fermeture des écoles causée par la pandémie de la COVID-19 a suscité beaucoup d’inquiétude dans les milieux éducatifs. En effet, les élèves n’ont plus eu accès à l’enseignement traditionnel dans les établissements scolaires. Les enseignants ont dû s’adapter rapidement aux nouvelles mesures d’urgence et enseigner à distance, en mode virtuel. En plus de devoir s’approprier une variété d’outils numériques, ils ont été soumis à une pression quant à la qualité de leur enseignement et à l’encadrement des élèves. Le climat inhabituel et incertain causé par la pandémie a donc amené plusieurs acteurs du milieu scolaire à réfléchir à leur pratique afin d’améliorer l’expérience éducative des élèves lors d’un futur retour en classe. Ce changement obligatoire de stratégie pédagogique représente un défi susceptible de créer des tensions chez les enseignants qui ont décidé d’utiliser de nouvelles approches pédagogiques davantage centrées sur l’élève. Cet article, ancré dans la troisième génération de la théorie de l’activité, se base sur une recension systématique des écrits et analyse la façon dont les défis engendrés par l’enseignement virtuel ont pu favoriser l’apprentissage expansif des enseignants. Cette revue de la documentation suggère de possibles contradictions représentant les quatre niveaux établis par Engeström (2001) et propose des étapes susceptibles de mener à une transformation durable de l’activité. En conclusion, il avance que la résolution des contradictions vécues par les enseignants favorisera à la fois la transformation de leurs pratiques pédagogiques ainsi que leur adaptation à la nouvelle réalité virtuelle.
Cultural historical activity theory, double stimulation, and conflicts of motives in education science: Where have we been? (2012-2021)
Authors: Isaac Guillaume , Barma Syvie , Romero Margarida
Published: January 2022

Cultural Historical Activity Theory (CHAT) can be used both as a theoretical and an analytical framework. It has been used in a wide variety of contexts over a wide variety of research objects in education and other fields requiring a comprehensive understanding of interactions within a system. At a theoretical level, the relation between double stimulation and instrumental mediation has been studied and understood, yet the link between double stimulation and conflicts of motives is understudied. How has scientific literature considered this avenue for research over the past ten years? A systematic literature review was conducted, and thematic analysis was performed in order to identify themes. As of the first quarter of 2021, scientific literature in education sciences does not yet reflect the interest and potential of this research avenue. Double stimulation and its relation to conflicts of motives are key components to form volitional action in education contexts and is therefore a valuable research object.
RAHASIA PENGULANGAN (REPITISI) AYAT DALAM SURAH AR-RAHMAN
Authors: Yunus Muhammad , Hasanah Uswatun
Published: January 2022

Artikel ini membahas tentang rahasia pengulangan (repitisi) ayat dalam surah ar-Rahman. Di satu sisi, pengulangan ayat meruapakan salah satu gaya bahasa dan kemu’jizatan al-Qur’an. Akan tetapi, pada sisi yang lain, baik dari kalangan Islam sendiri  ataupun orientalis masih debatable tentang makna pengulangan (tiqrar) dalam al-Qur’an. Salah satu yang membahas tentang rahasia makna dibalik pengulangan ayat adalah al-Alusi dalam tafsir Ruhal- Ma’ani. Penelitian ini bersifat literature, maka penulis menggunakan pendekatan diskriftif- analisis. Mendiskripsikan secara umum kitab tafsir Ruh al- Ma’ani dan melakukan analisi dengan tulisan-tulisan yang berbentuk jurnal atau karya ilmiah lainnya. Sebagai hasilnya, rahasia di balik pengulangan (repitisi) ayat dalam al-Qur’an menurut al-Alusi adalah sebagai penetapan makna ayat sebelumnya bukan sebagai tauqid. Sebagaimana dikenal dalam ilmu balaghah bahwa salah satu metode tauqid adalah dengan mengulangi lafadz atau ayat tersebut, jika lebih dari tiga kali pengulangannya maka bukanlah disebut tauqid (pengutan), akan tetapi penetapan makna(taqrir al-ma’na) dari sebelumnya

This study aims to analyze the effect of work discipline on employee performance with the Work Environment as a Moderation Variable. At one of the private universities in Semarang. The sample is all members of the population using a saturated sampling method. The analytical tool used in this research is Moderation Regression Analysis. Hypothesis 1 testing shows that the value of t count = 2.745> t table = 1.645 with a significance number = 0.005 < = 0.05 (significant). So (H1) which states that work discipline has a positive effect on employee performance is proven. Regression coefficient β1 = 0.257 (positive sign), this can be interpreted that the higher the work discipline, the higher the employee performance. Hypothesis testing 2. Testing (H2) shows that the t value of the influence of the moderating variable is 2.599> t table = 1.645 with a significance number = 0.016 < = 0.05 (significant). (H2) which states that the Work Environment positively moderates the effect of Work Discipline on Employee Performance. The interaction test shows β2 = 0.175 (positive sign), this can be interpreted that a good work environment will strengthen the effect of work discipline on employee work discipline.

Abstract. Biomass burning emissions often contain brown carbon (BrC), which represents a large family of light-absorbing organics that is chemically complex and therefore difficult to estimate their absorption of incoming solar radiation, resulting in large uncertainties in the estimation of the global direct radiative effect of aerosols. Here we investigate the contribution of BrC to the total light absorption of biomass burning aerosols over the South-East Atlantic Ocean with different optical models utilizing a suite of airborne measurements from the ORACLES 2018 campaign by introducing an effective refractive index of black carbon (BC), meBC = neBC+ikeBC, that accounts for all possible absorbing components at 660 nm wavelength to facilitate the attribution of absorption at shorter wavelengths. Most values of the imaginary part of the refractive index, keBC, were larger than those commonly used for BC from biomass burning emissions, suggesting contributions from absorbers beyond BC at 660 nm. The TEM-EDX single particle analysis further suggests that these long-wavelength absorbers might include iron oxides, as iron is found to be present only when large values of keBC are derived. Using this effective BC refractive index, we find that the contribution of BrC to the total absorption at 470 nm (RBrC,470) ranges from ~5–15 %, with the organic aerosol mass absorption coefficient (MACOA,470) at this wavelength ranging from 0.25 ± 0.34 m2 g−1 to 0.43 ± 0.12 m2 g−1. The core-shell model yielded much higher estimates of MACOA,470 and RBrC,470 than homogeneous mixing models, underscoring the importance of model treatment. Another key finding was that estimates of the BrC contribution at 470 nm from the commonly used AAE (absorption Ångström exponent) attribution method (< 5 %) are much lower than the BrC contribution estimates (RBrC,470) using our new methodology that accounts for contributions from both BrC and non-carbonaceous, long-wavelength absorbers, such as magnetite. Thus, it is recommended that application of any optical properties-based attribution method use absorption coefficients at the longest possible wavelength to minimize the influence of BrC at the long wavelength and to account for potential contributions from other absorbing materials.
