Emasculated Masculinity: Tom Wingfield’s “illusion” in The Glass Menagerie
Authors: - Priscilla Karam
Published: May 2024

The experience of reading Tennessee Williams’s The Glass Menagerie can often draw the readers in multiple directions. One of the conflicting and poignant directions leads us to Tom Wingfield and his struggles. Set during the Great Depression in America in the 1930s, Tom is at a crossroads trying to find his masculine identity. However, his journey into manhood is hindered by several factors; social, economic, and domestic. Since American hegemonic masculinity has traditionally linked men’s identity to that of a successful man, Tom’s failure to climb the social ladder is equated to his failure in defining his masculine identity and asserting his manhood. This article explores the milieu that leads to Tom’s increasing masculine anxiety which ultimately emasculates him. By analysing Tom’s failure to embody the mandates of traditional masculine ideals, this article argues that Tom’s search for a masculine identity remains an “illusion” with no objective reality.

Published: May 2024

Almost half of all people on the planet are women. The best method to enhance a household's health, nutrition, and financial standing - a household being a micro unit of a country's economy - is for women to receive an education. In this regard, one could argue that under education of women may be a barrier to the economic advancement of the nation. In India, women obtain significantly less schooling than males do. Government and non-profit organizations have made a real attempt to raise women's educational achievement. The actions of the Indian government towards women's education reflected in the modifications made to elementary, secondary, and higher education legislation and infrastructure. According to the survey, there has been a noticeable improvement in women's educational achievement as evidenced by changes in female literacy levels throughout time. However, no one talks about the right to education of a woman after her marriage. How she is sacrificing her higher education and the challenges she faces if she pursues so and the sacrifices she makes relating to her further education and sacrificing career of her own dreams and lives her life in poise.
This paper talks about the women’s right to education post marriage and the challenges she faces in her life post marriage. Right to Education after marriage is also a fundamental human right. Women empowerment in education post-marriage is necessary in the society.

Published: May 2024

The developing technology has made a big stage for several inventions or creations to be formed, worked on, functionalized and used for better improvement of human’s life. The idea of creating an autonomous vehicle is to improve the human driving skills by replacing human’s driving and using artificial
intelligence so that there is better usage of safety rules; avoid accidents, proper functioning of roads with well managed traffic and roads. A current autonomous vehicle determines its driving strategy by considering only external factors (Pedestrians, road conditions, etc.) without considering the interior condition of the vehicle. To solve the problem, this project proposes “A Driving Decision Strategy (DDS) Based on Machine learning for an autonomous vehicle” which determines the optimal strategy of an autonomous vehicle by analyzing not only the external factors, but also the internal factors of the vehicle (consumable conditions, RPM levels etc.). The DDS learns a genetic algorithm using sensor data from vehicles stored in the cloud and determines the optimal driving strategy of an autonomous vehicle. This project compared the DDS with MLP and RF neural network models to validate the DDS.

Crafting musical compositions presents a unique set of challenges, divergent from those encountered in visual art forms. The temporal nature of music necessitates models proficient in handling time dynamics. Moreover, compositions often encompass multiple tracks, each characterized by its own temporal intricacies, demanding an intricate approach to their interdependent evolution. Unlike static visual imagery, musical notes are sequenced, commonly organized into chords or melodies, imposing a requirement for specialized chronological structures. This paper extensively delves into the evolutionary journey of GenAI within the domain of sequential generative adversarial networks (GANs) tailored specifically for music composition. We introduce a suite of novel models meticulously crafted to address the nuances of musical generation, exploring their efficacy in producing complex multi-track compositions. Our investigation centers on a comprehensive analysis of the evolutionary trajectory of these models, scrutinizing their capacity to autonomously generate cohesive musical sequences across diverse tracks. Through rigorous empirical evaluations, we substantiate the capabilities of our models to produce compelling musical segments sans human intervention. Furthermore, we delve into intricate technical discussions, elucidating the underlying mechanisms driving the generation process, including the intricate interplay of neural architectures and training methodologies. In addition to empirical validation, we conduct detailed user studies, garnering insights into the subjective perception of the generated compositions. Moreover, we delve into the realm of human-AI collaboration in music generation, unveiling the potential of GenAI to complement human compositions by seamlessly providing harmonious accompaniment, thereby bridging the gap between artistic creativity and computational progress.

Authors: - Aaron Lance R. Manalo , - Fiona Daphne G. Gramata , - Jamie Lee Ann S. Banzon , - Mario Jose R. Sumalinog II
Published: May 2024

Iron (II) sulfate is a compound that is a waste byproduct in metal industries, contributing to excess iron levels present in water bodies. Iron (II) sulfate removal techniques include precipitation, filtration, and oxidation, which are effective but are more complex and costly. These techniques are largely affected by ion solubility, pH level of water, and the presence of other metal ions. Changes in pH can lead to the precipitation of other metal ions present and failure to filter properly may cause them to sediment and sink to the bottom. This research studied the potential of cogon grass (Imperata cylindrica) as a low-cost adsorbent for the removal of ferrous sulfate. Batch adsorption studies resulted in the adsorption capacity ranging around 200-350 mg/g, where increasing adsorbent dose correlated to an increase in percent removal but decrease in adsorption capacity. The percentage removal also increased with higher temperature, while the effect of agitation speed plateaued from 145 RPM above. The adsorption process conforms to pseudo-second-order kinetics with an R2>0.96 and Freundlich isotherm model with R2>0.97. FTIR analysis of cogongrass before and after FeSO4 adsorption shows significant shifts in the IR spectrum, indicating new chemical bond formations, particularly with hydroxyl and carboxyl groups. Initially, peaks were identified for various functional groups like hydroxyls, alkanes, anhydrides, alkenes, and siloxanes. Post-adsorption, notable changes include the shifting and appearance of new peaks in hydroxyl, alkene, lignin, amine, and sulfonic acid bands, suggesting interactions with iron sulfate and the formation of organometallic complexes.

Шиншили - це гризуни, що належать до родини Chinchillidae і споріднені морським свинкам і дегу. Існує два види шиншил: короткохвоста шиншила, Chinchilla chinchilla, і довгохвоста шиншила, Chinchilla lanigera. Аналіз захворюваності шиншил показав, що тварини яких господарі утримують з порушенням зоогігієнічних умов відчувають вплив різноманітних хвороботворних чинників і можуть захворіти. Саме з таких причин до 35% придбаних шиншил гине в першій рік життя. Шиншили - домашні улюбленці, більш крупніші за диких. Самиці крупніші за самців. В нашій країні шиншил утримують, як домашніх улюбленців.Шиншили часто можуть захворіти на незаразні захворювання, так як чутливі як до раціону годування, так і до умов утримання (температура, вологість, швидкість руху повітря). Аналіз показав, що незаразні захворювання складають 63%, заразні – 37 % (21% – інфекційні, 16% – інвазійні). Незаразні захворювання це різні гіпо- та авітамінози, захворювання обміну речовин, переважають запальні процеси в системах травлення, дихання, сечовиділення, у старих тварин відмічаються пухлини.У молодих тварин найчастіше діагностують гіповітамінози, травми, різноманітні отруєння. Всі хвороби шиншин незаразної етілогії мають прямий зв’язок з умовами утримання та годування: тварин потрібно утримувати в чистоті; раціон харчування потрібно збалансувати, щодо енергетичних ( білки, жири, вуглеводи) та неенергетичних ( мікро- , макроелементи та вітаміни) речовин; тварини повинні мати постійний доступ до чистої води;. Вчасно виявлені хвороби шиншил лікуються легше, ніж запущені.

Протягом чотирьох діб, щоденно, однократно, внутрішньом’язово вводили контрольним тваринам фізіологічний розчин, а дослідним групам антибіотик енрофлоксацин у традиційній субстанції (першій групі), полімер ПЕГ-400 (другій) та пегільований антибіотик енрофлоксацин (третій). На 7-му, 14-ту та 21-шу доби після закінчення ін’єкцій препаратів у тварин відбирали кров та проби печінки для досліджень. У сироватці крові визначали загальний протеїн і його фракції – альбумін, альфа-, бета- та гамма-глобуліни. Проби печінки досліджували гістологічно. Проведені дослідження показали, що внутрішньом’язові ін’єкції щурам пегільованого антибіотика енрофлоксацину, полімеру ПЕГ-400 та традиційного антибіотика енрофлоксацину мало впливали на вміст загального протеїну у сироватці крові щурів. Вміст альбуміну у крові тварин, які отримували пегільований антибіотик енрофлоксацин, порівняно з контрольними та іншими дослідними, тримався на фізіологічно вищому рівні, що вказує на стабільну протеїнсинтезувальну функцію печінки. Протягом перших 7-ім діб після закінчення введення препаратів у сироватці крові щурів дослідних груп вміст альфа-глобулінів був нижчим, а високодисперсних глобулінів (бета- та гамма-глобулінів) мало відрізнявся від контрольних. Це може вказувати на незначний вплив препаратів на клітини ретикулогістіоцитарної системи, які беруть участь в утворенні бета- та гамма-глобулінів. Гістологічні дослідження тканин печінки показали, що пегілювання антибіотика енрофлоксацину знижувало гепатотоксичність, оскільки за його застосування зміни структури гепатоцитів реєстрували лише у перші 7-ім діб, а за ін’єкції традиційної форми антибіотика енрофлоксацину морфологічні порушення паренхіми встановлювали на 7-му, 14-ту та 21-шу доби після введення. Отже, пегілювання антибіотика енрофлоксацину веде до зниження його токсичного впливу на організм, зокрема й на печінку після внутрішньом’язового застосування.

Hellenistic and Roman Stamped Amphora Handles from Phaselis
Authors: Tüner Önen Nihal , Alkaç Erkan , Arslan Murat
Published: May 2024

Phaselis is a harbour city located at the point where the Lykia, Pamphylia and Pisidia regions intersect. During the surveys and excavations carried out between 2019 and 2023, a total of 18 stamped amphora handles were found at different points of the city - the Hellenistic Temple, Main Street and Necropolis. The aim of the research presented in this paper is to classify the stamped amphora handles according to their production centres, date the stamped handles, determine whether the names on the stamps refer to eponyms or fabricants, and improve understanding Phaselis’ maritime trade relationships. As a result, in this study, the amphora stamps found in the city were classified according to their production centre: Rhodes (13), Rhodian Peraea (1), Knidos (1), Pamphylia (2), and Latin DR 2-4. While the earliest example of stamped handles can be dated back to the second quarter of the 3rd century BC, the latest example is dated to the end of the 1st century BC - 1st century AD.

Authors: Oğuz Kırca E. Deniz , Özhan Tolga , Demirciler Volkan
Published: May 2024

This article introduces a new fragmentary inscription discovered on the hillside during the archaeological survey at Kaletepe, situated northeast of Bozburun, in 2022. The inscription, which dates to the Hellenistic period, lists eight non-natives of Tymnos along with their hometowns and monetary contributions for the augmentation (epauxesis) of an unidentified purpose. Parallel examples suggest that they may have been affiliated with a cult or a professional association.
Newly Found Funerary Inscriptions from the Muratdede/Masdat Village of Karaman (Laranda)
Authors: Alkan Mehmet , Aşkın Ercan
Published: May 2024

This contribution presents the recent discovery of seven funerary inscriptions, three of them are epigrams, in the village of Muratdede/Masdat in the province of Karaman. The first five of these inscriptions date from the Roman imperial era and the remaining two can be dated to the Late Roman or Early Byzantine periods. The following personal names are recorded in these inscriptions: Αὐρ Πωπας and his son of the same name, Πωπας, Βαλαθθις (no. 1); Διομήδης twice, as both a father and son (no. 2); Αὐρηλίαν Λ/Α[. . Ἄ]μμω[νίου/νος]? (no. 3); [Ἑρ]μιόνη and her son Τιβέρι(ο)ς (no. 4); Εὐστρατί(ος/δας), Μᾶρκος, [Ἡ]λιόδωρ(ος)? (no. 5); Καματα (no. 6); Αὐρ. Κο[υ?]ττονις and his father Κοτονιος and cousin Παπιας (no. 7).
Among these epitaphs, in terms of the information it contains, the most prominent inscription is the third or fourth century A.D. epigram dedicated to Marcus (no. 5). The salutation phrase περίψημά σου “your humble servant” in the non-metric sentence preceding the epigram supports the dating of this inscription to these centuries. The mention of the ethnonym of δῆμος Μασταζιων “demos of Mastazians” in the epigram of Marcus indicates that the extant Masdat name derives from the antiquity. This epigram also mentions the existence of wise men (ἄνδρες συνετοί) among the people of Masdat settlement. Another epigram (no. 7) is the first one, in which a Homeric phrase such as ἐπὶ σῆμ᾽ ἔχεεν was quoted.
Finally, two inscriptions and the terms they contain, such as trismakaristos (no. 4), diakon and presbyteros (no. 6), are of considerable importance in determining the Christian period of this settlement, as they do not appear in any of the Masdat inscriptions published to date.

Authors: Wulan Aisyah Mayang , Rismawati Yaswir  , Desywar
Published: May 2024

Background: Acute myocardial infarction (AMI) occurs due to rupture of atherosclerotic plaque which triggers platelet activation and aggregation to form a thrombus. Several studies have examined the relationship between PDW and AMI, but there is no specific correlation with hsTnI as the most sensitive and specific cardiac biomarker for AMI. This study aims to analyze the correlation between hsTnI levels and PDW values in AMI patients.
Methods: Cross-sectional study of 60 AMI patients in the emergency room of Dr. M. Djamil General Hospital Padang from April to August 2022. Research subjects who met the inclusion and exclusion criteria underwent hsTnI and PDW examinations. The correlation of hsTnI with PDW was analyzed using the Spearman correlation test. Correlation is declared significant if the p-value is <0.05.
Results: The research sample consisted of 48 men (80%) and 12 women (20%). The average age is 60.67 (10.73) years with an age range of 33-82 years. The mean hsTnI level was 2,606.10 (2,404.79) ng/Land the mean PDW value was 10.97 (2.26) fL. There was a strong and significant positive correlation between hsTnI and PDW in AMI patients (r = 0.618, p = 0.000).
Conclusion: There is a correlation between hsTnI levels and PDW values at AMI.

Stropharia rugosoannulata is abundant in natural polysaccharides, offering not only high nutritional value but also significant medicinal properties, potentially useful in managing hyperlipidemia. This study aimed to assess the hypolipidemic effects of S. rugosoannulata polysaccharide in mice with hyperlipidemia caused by a high-fat diet (HFD). We examined the influence of S. rugosoannulata polysaccharide on protein expression in the LKB1/AMPK pathway using Western blot analysis. The results showed that S. rugosoannulata polysaccharide increased the expressions of LKB1 and AMPK, decreased the expressions of CD36, SREBP1, ACC1, FAS, and HMGCR, and effectively alleviated the accumulation of liver lipids. Furthermore, in HepG2 cells exposed to oleic acid, mirroring lipid accumulation, we elaborated on these animal study findings. Our results demonstrated that weight gain was inhibited, body fat content was decreased, and dyslipidemia and liver steatosis were improved in mice fed with an HFD after treatment with S. rugosoannulata polysaccharide. The findings of this study indicate that S. rugosoannulata polysaccharide can regulate the liver LKB1/AMPK signaling pathway and inhibit lipid accumulation, thus alleviating hyperlipidemia.
