Background: A bilateral malformation known as Clinodactyly, or curvature of the little finger in the radio-ulnar plane, causes the finger to be stunted and curved, or inclined, towards the ring finger. It is known to be a morphogenetic trait. Reports say that Clinodactyly seems to be passed on by a single autosomal dominant gene. There is paucity of information on curvature of the little finger in the Idoma tribe of Benue State, Nigeria; hence, this study was aimed at determining the distribution of curvature of the little finger in the study population. Materials and Methods: The study was descriptive and cross-sectional in design with 401 participants recruited randomly following a multi-staged sampling method. Results and Discussion: The most frequent socio-demographic characteristics were age category 33-47yrs with 213(53.1%), male gender with 223(55.6%), Tertiary education with 239(59.6%), Married/Co-habiting 220(54.9%), and Christianity 286(71.3%). The significant socio-demographic characteristic among participants were educational level (X2 =14.090, p=0.003) and marital status (X2 =10.901, p=0.05). The proportion of participants with a curved little finger was 18.9%. In the population a large portion of them had straight little finger. Conclusion(s): The proportion of participants with a curved little finger was 18.9%. In the population a large portion of them had straight little finger. The study showed that less than a third of the sampled population had a curved little finger and the remaining two-third a straight little finger. The ratio of curved to straight little finger was 1:4.

Cloud Gaming Demystified: An Introduction to the Legal Implications of Cloud-Based Videogames
Authors: Longan Mitchell , Dimita Gaetano , Michels Johan , Millard Christopher
Published: March 2023

In this paper, we “demystify” cloud-based videogaming and its legal implications, in two stages. First, we describe the videogame sector; explain the basics of cloud computing and traditional videogame technologies and set out how the two converge in cloud-based videogame systems. Based on this analysis, we distinguish three separate models for cloud gaming services: (i) the “layered” model of Gaming-as-a-Service (‘GaaS’); (ii) the ‘integrated’ model of GaaS; and (iii) the ‘consumer infrastructure-as-a-service’ model. We argue that these three models are key to analyzing how intellectual property rights, contractual rights, and regulatory issues will develop in this novel environment for videogame distribution and access.

ENERGY TRANSITIONS IN NIGERIA: THE ROLE OF POLICIES FOR THE ADOPTION OF LOW-CARBON TECHNOLOGIES AND SYSTEM INTEGRATION
Authors: Isah Samaila Nitte  , Tope Muslihudeen Salahudeen
Published: March 2023

This study underscores the role of Policies for adopting low-carbon technologies and system integration in Nigerias energy transition. Although the nation has abundant energy resources, a sizeable section of its people lacks access to power, creating severe problems with energy accessibility. To address this problem, the government has implemented several programmes and plans. However, the high initial costs of low-carbon technology, particularly in rural regions, have hampered their development. The study emphasises the importance of a user-centred approach, contextualisation of technology, consideration of social norms, and the role of intermediaries in facilitating the adoption and use of low-carbon technologies. It also highlights how policy interventions can either accelerate or delay the adoption of low-carbon technologies. The study recommends that policymakers and technology developers adopt a holistic approach by considering various issues in policy formulation concerning the transition to low-carbon technologies.

CHEMOTHERAPEUTIC DRUG DELIVERY SYSTEMS: NEW IDEAS AND PERSPECTIVES
Authors: Ashish Mehta  , Ramesh Chaudhari
Published: March 2023

Targeted medication delivery to the organ, tissue, or cells currently offers great opportunities in the field of drug therapy. Drug delivery systems (DDS) are essential for improving the efficacy of chemotherapy in cancer treatment. Chemotherapy is a subject of great interest since new drug delivery techniques are constantly being created. The ability of therapeutic agents to reach their intended sites and their low accumulation in non-specific sites (healthy organs and tissues) are both crucial components of anti-tumor chemotherapy success. As a result, the targeted distribution of medications to the organs, tissues, or cells is currently thought to provide wonderful prospective in the field of chemotherapy. The fundamental idea behind targeted delivery is that molecules that can be recognised by a specific receptor on cells or target sites can be used to modify delivery systems (such as the vector, containers, and others) rather than just the medication itself.
These are therefore referred to as "targeted drug delivery systems." Yet, the development of multifunctional nanocarriers, such as nanoparticles, liposomes, micelles, dendrimers, and others, can greatly improve the effectiveness of numerous therapeutic and diagnostic procedures.
BRAIN DAMAGE AND LANGUAGE PRODUCTION: A STUDY ON THE NEUROLOGICAL ASPECT OF LANGUAGE
Authors: Semana Ignas Loy
Published: March 2023

Language is closely related to human being. All human being normally speak at least one language. It is hard to imagine much significant social, intellectual, or artistic activity taking place in the absence of language. The possession of language distinguishes humans from other animals. Even to understand our humanity we must understand the language that makes us human. Language is also connected to brain. It is believed that language is a distinctive piece of biological make up of our brains. In the contrary, if humans have disaster in their brain then automatically that disaster will bring certain negative effects in comprehending and producing language (speech production). This study discusses the relation between  brain (biological aspect of language) and language production (linguistic aspect) that is so-called neurolinguistics. The aim of the study is to show the negative effect of damaged brain in comprehending and producing language

Celem pracy jest przedstawienie funkcjonowania systemu finansowania wojskowej jednostki budżetowej oraz sposobu pozyskiwania funduszy przeznaczanych na Siły Zbrojne RP. Problem badawczy pracy został zawarty w formie pytania: Czy zmiany zachodzące w systemie gospodarczym mają wpływ na funkcjonowanie jednostek wojskowych? Hipoteza badawcza, przedstawia się następująco: System finansowania jednostek wojskowych funkcjonujący obecnie w Rzeczypospolitej Polskiej, pozwala na zabezpieczenie wyzwań stojących przed współczesnymi, nowoczesnymi Siłami Zbrojnymi. Artykuł został przygotowany w oparciu o szeroki przegląd literatury i aktów prawnych. Metody badawcze, jakimi się posłużono to: krytyczna analiza literatury przedmiotu badań, analiza opracowań teoretycznych i innych materiałów źródłowych oraz ich synteza. Zastosowana została również metoda indukcji i dedukcji. Ponadto wykorzystano metody statystyczne. Przeprowadzona analiza pozwala stwierdzić, że dokonujące się od dwóch dekad zmiany w systemie gospodarczym miały istotny wpływ na funkcjonowanie jednostek wojskowych, wymuszając od Sił Zbrojnych RP dostosowania ich zadań i struktur organizacyjnych do obowiązującego powszechnie prawa, w tym zakresie. Na podstawie literatury, badań i poczynionych obserwacji zdefiniowano istotę pojęć: wojskowy oddział gospodarczy, system finansowy, budżet państwa. Omówione zostały również uwarunkowania prawne działalności wojskowych oddziałów budżetowych rodzaje źródeł finansowania, wydatki budżetu resortu obrony narodowej na przestrzeni ostatnich lat oraz struktura rodzajowa ogólnych wydatków obronnych na rok 2022. Biorąc pod uwagę nowo wprowadzone regulacje prawne dotychczas powstało niewiele opracowań tego typu dotyczących systemu finansowania wojskowych jednostek budżetowych.

A descriptive research design was employed where 90 students pursuing different programmes in the Faculty of Education, Arts, and Media Studies in the academic year 2021-2022 were involved in the study. Probability sampling technique was used. Data was collected using focus group discussions, documentary analysis, and observation. The findings reveal effective integration of Information communication technology, addressing individuality among learners in activities of integration, lack of adequate instructional resources, need for constant monitoring of learners, lack of finances, poor attitude, and little training on assessment as major pedagogical challenges. It is concluded that this approach shall help in the attainment of Uganda’s efforts to achieve Vision 2040, which is seeing Uganda become a middle-income country. The study recommends more training on effective integration of ICT, assessment, evaluation, teacher attitude change, provision of adequate instructional materials, financing, and constant monitoring. Proper planning for afternoon sessions so that students are not left redundant is also essential. It is imperative that teacher training institutions support systems for the proper adoption of the new curriculum. Individuality among learners in activities of integration should also be attended to
Trend and Current Status of Forest Resources in the Amhara National Regional State, Ethiopia: A Review
Authors: Alem Demelash
Published: March 2023

Ethiopia is endowed with diverse forest resources. Amhara National Regional State, one of the administrative regions in Ethiopia, has diverse ecology and is endowed with diversified flora and fauna. Forest resources in the region provide various uses and services to the local community. But the forest resources of the region have faced huge devastation due to high human and livestock pressure. As a response, efforts have been made to conserve and develop the forest resources of the region. However, there is a lack of comprehensive information about the current status and trend of forest resources in the region. This review provides the current status and trend of forest resources in the region based on a literature search from different sources. The review showed that the overall forest resource of the region decreased over time, despite the expansion of plantation forests. Most of the natural forest resources of the region disappeared and remnants are found in church compounds and other forest conservation areas. Plantation forests in the region are dominated by exotic tree species, majorly Eucalyptus. Most important non-timber forest products have been neglected, and modern forest development interventions are lacking. This review paper is indispensable for decision-makers, academicians, development, and research institutions to direct their focus toward developing technologies and information for the sustainable development of the forest resources in the region. Appropriate forest management and utilization practices have to be implemented for the sustainability of the forest resources in the region. Since the forest resource in the region is under dynamic change, regularly updating and providing information on its current status is imperative for timely and proper decision-making

Authors: Mikrianto Edi , Yunus Rahmat
Published: March 2023

The synthesis of hematite iron oxide from iron ore in Pemalongan village was carried out using an easy and simple method, namely precipitation. The purpose of this study was to determine the extraction results, crystal structure and crystal size of the compounds synthesized using the precipitation method. Iron ore processing is carried out by reacting 37% (w/w) HCl by dripping 25% (v/v) NH4OH as a precipitating agent and adding PEG-200 to control particle size by varying the volume ratio of PEG-200: Iron 1:5 ( mL/g), 2:5 (mL/g), and 3:5 (mL/g). Then calcined at 500°C for 2 hours. The synthesis results were characterized using Xray diffraction (XRD) and scanning electron microscopy (SEM). The results of XRD analysis with varying volume ratios of PEG-200:iron 1:5 (mL/g), 2:5 (mL/g), and 3:5 (mL/g) have formed a hematite iron oxide phase. The synthesis results with a volume ratio of 1:5 (mL/g) produced the highest purity and had a trigonal geometric structure, cell parameters a = 5.036340 Å; b = 5.036340 Å; and c = 13.345420 Å; α = β = 90˚; γ = 120˚ and the space group is R3 c. Calculation of crystal size using the Debye Scherrer equation results in variations in the volume ratio of PEG-200: Iron 1:5 (mL/g), 2:5 (mL/g), and 3:5 (mL/g) is 50.9912 nm; 43.08837 nm; and 45.30663 nm. The SEM characterization results showed that the iron oxide hematite produced from the synthesis clumped and formed small non-uniform grains.
An Effective Control Technique to Implement an IUPQC Design for Sensitive Loads in a Hybrid Solar PV-Grid Connection
Authors: Osaloni Oluwafunso Oluwole , Akinyemi Ayodeji Stephen , Adebiyi Abayomi Aduragba , Salau Ayodeji Olalekan
Published: March 2023

The recent innovation in power electronic application in the electrical power system (EPS) has given birth to an Improved Unified Power Quality Conditioner (IUPQC) that positively impacts the electrical power system (EPS). The previously available mitigation approaches with the application IUPQC are monotonous and are major designs for a particular power quality (PQ) issue which does not take care of the degree of impart. This paper presents an effective control architecture of an IUPQC design for sensitive loads in hybrid Photovoltaic Solar (PV) connected grid, concentrating on the voltage demand of loads that respond to slight changes. The objective of this work is to design a flexible controller that can respond to the different degrees of PQ challenges concerning voltage, variable load, and solar irradiation. It has combined the merits of an IUPQC and grid-integrated PV source. Effective controllers for Voltage Source Inverter (VSI) connected in series and Current Source Inverter (CSI) connected in shunt compensators of the UPQC are implemented to increase device strength for different voltage and current distortions. The series compensator was controlled using an enhanced Synchronous Reference Frame (SRF) technique based on adaptive notch filters. An Adaptive Logarithmic Absolute Algorithm (ALAL) was deployed for the parallel section of the proposed approach. The Mean Turning Filter (MTF) was used as a replacement for a low pass filter (LPF) for direct current node voltage management, leaving high and low-frequency ripples unaffected. To maintain a constant current on the grid side during grid disturbances, a feed-forward element has been introduced to the shunt CSI controller. Under various network situations, such as under-voltage, over-voltage, voltage distortion, harmonics, rapid load changes, and fluctuation in solar power, the control system performance is better as confirmed by experimental validation. Finally, it is observed that the voltage profile of 0.984 p.u. due to application control falling within the permissible limits. The proposed controllers are tested in the MATLAB Simulink on a developed distribution system model and validated experimental prototype.

Language also appeared like other phenomena in nature and society. The emergence of language is proportionally related to the emergence of society. Therefore, it is impossible to imagine language without society, and society without language. The development of language is also related to the development of society. After all, the life of the society is reflected in its language. It is not for nothing that it is said that language is a mirror of society. Any change in the life of the society will first of all be expressed in the language. However, as related as they are, language and society are different. The difference is that the language belongs to society, it is its social "property". For example, the Uzbek language belongs to the Uzbek people (nation), while the Tajik language belongs to the Tajik people (nation). Since the Uzbek language belongs to the Uzbek nation, the Uzbek language and the Tajik language belong to the Tajik nation, that is why it is called the Tajik language. The classics of Marxism-Leninism also separately dealt with the issues of the emergence and development of language and created their own doctrines. According to this doctrine, language is noted as a social phenomenon.

Berdyaev, while developing this tradition, in his book “The Kingdom of Spirituality and the Kingdom of the Stubborn’, touched upon the problem of the philosophy of choice and wrote: There are two kinds of philosophy - the philosophy of values and the philosophy of profit.
