Published: February 2022

This research was throughout 2018-2020, filamentous fungi of agricultural importance were isolated from the Cerro Las Tetillas, located in the municipality of Salvatierra, Guanajuato. The hill was divided into three strata: upper, middle and lower. Two hundred soil samples were taken at depths of 0-15 and 15-30 cm. These were processed in the biology laboratory, belonging to the Higher Technological Institute of Salvatierra. Two isolation techniques were used: direct seeding and serial dilutions, over Petri dishes with potato dextrose agar culture medium and 100 mg of streptomycin to control bacteria. One hundred and thirteen axenic strains corresponding to 16 genera identified from “Cerro Tetillas” were obtained. At the upper stratum, 13 genera were identified, while in the middle and lower strata, nine genera were identified in each one of them. The diversity of soil fungi found in the different strata of the hill may be due to physicochemical characteristics of soil, native vegetation, interaction and abundance of soil fungi species, human disturbance and rain runoff.
Archaism, Antiphony and the Music of the Book of Common Prayer: A Mythical Amalgam
Authors: Sexton Ian
Published: February 2022

The Book of Common Prayer (BCP) is more than four hundred and fifty years old and part of the very fabric of Anglicanism throughout the world. It has a vast catalogue of musical repertory, both in the form of settings of the text of the BCP, but also settings of other sacred texts that might be used at BCP services. This music achieved an archaic personality from the early days of the BCP, but many later periods in the life of the Anglican Church have engendered and even promoted an archaic personality quite conspicuously. Musical archaism, in turn, has supported the formal, conservative and archaic personality of the BCP and its practice more generally.  The music of the BCP has also engendered a patriarchal, hierarchical and antiphonal identity, all of which have strong connexions with archaism. Additionally, the Ecclesiological Movement (or the Cambridge Camden Movement) and the Tractarian Movement (or the Oxford Movement) and their systematic archaic and antiphonal schemes have also brought archaism into the company of the music of the BCP. Finally, the archaic nature of the Tudor words of the BCP is a continuous and increasing feature from about the time of the Restoration onwards. Yet the archaic identity, or ethos, spirit, or myth, that is provoked by all these ingredients may well, at times, have been a work of fantasy rather than fact.

CONCEITO JUSNORMATIVO EUROPEU DE EMPRESA SOCIAL: A ENGENHARIA UTILIZADA NA CONSTRUÇÃO DO CONCEITO
Authors: Linhares Pereira Maíra Fajardo
Published: February 2022

O tema deste artigo é o conceito jusnormativo europeu de empresa social, contudo o seu objeto não é este conceito em si, mas sim o seu processo de construção. O objetivo deste trabalho é, portanto, abordar o processo de construção desse conceito. Quanto mais claro e preciso for este processo, mais seguro e eficaz será o conceito construído. De forma simplificada, conceitos jusnormativos são conceitos encontrados no contexto das normas jurídicas. Tais conceitos representados por palavras ou expressões, como é o caso de empresa social, não têm um significado prévio, ao contrário, têm seu significado determinado pela interpretação de seu uso nas normas nas quais as palavras e ou expressões que os representam aparecem. Sendo assim, a língua possui um papel muito importante no processo de construção de um conceito jusnormativo. Línguas não são neutras, elas carregam conceções e formas de pensar, elas são formadas e transformadas de acordo com as práticas e culturas das comunidades onde são faladas. Logo, a língua utilizada no processo de criação do direito da UE pode influenciar na construção dos conceitos jusnormativos deste direito. O processo de construção do conceito jusnormativo de empresa social na UE apresenta uma peculiaridade que é o fato de ser realizado em 24 línguas oficiais, o que significa a possibilidadeda existência de diferentes conceções deste conceito nos Estados-Membros, de acordo com suas práticas e cultura, além claro, da possibilidade da existência de outras expressões serem utilizadas para a representação do conceito em construção. Para a realização desta análise, o artigo está dividido em duas partes. A primeira traz uma explicação geral do significado da expressão conceitos jusnormativos, esclarece quando sua identificação se torna necessária e porque este é o caso do conceito de empresa social no ordenamento jurídico europeu. A segunda traz um aprofundamento sobre estes conceitos no contexto da teoria do direito a fim de identificar funções, classificações e processos necessários para a sua identificação e aponta como este conhecimento pode ser útil para a regulação da empresa social no ordenamento jurídico europeu.

Published: February 2022

The article presents the results of the study of the invasive potential of K. Koch on the territory of the Botanical Garden - Institute of the Far Eastern Branch of the Russian Academy of Sciences (BSI FEB RAS). Since 2015, we have observed the emergence of self-seedlings of M. sieboldii in natural ecosystems. This invasive population has a heterogeneous structure and morphometric parameters. Our results show the dependence of the mass appearance of seedlings on phenological shifts caused by modern climatic changes. We used a method of modeling potential habitats to describe changes in the boundaries of the natural range for the period from the last glacial maximum to the future in the short term (2070). A tendency for expansion of M. siebo ldii range in the northeastern direction, including potential to distribution of this species over the territory of the Russian Far East has been established.

Water contamination is one of the primary concerns for green globalization. Environmental monitoring is a fascinating system that has become increasingly important in 21st-century human life. To ensure a safe supply of drinking water and other water-related activities, water quality must be monitored in real time. This paper depicts a stage progression and plan for a small amount of effort. This research makes use of the Arduino Uno microcontroller, as well as a variety of sensors connected to the platform. The device, which is made up of a number of sensors, is used to determine the physical and chemical properties of water in various locations. Water quality factors such as pH, temperature, and Chlorine can be calculated. When estimated values were compared to W.H.O. standards, it was discovered that a cost-effective device for water quality management was required. In this paper we are trying to measure pH value for drinking water, temperature and chlorine content with the help of ORP sensor through simulation and then compared to standard value given by WHO. In this research paper our aim is to develop a system to evaluate the water quality based on simulation. Using a sensor we can collect data on various water quality parameters with minor variations. Following that, we can perform the necessary qualitative comparisons. It has also proven to be an effective tool for determining the impact of contaminated water. It is a effective tool for comparing data. Here we have used only three sensors pH , Temperature sensor and ORP sensor.

The approach of planning or taking care of big events manually or on paper creates nuisance for the workers of any company as it is bit difficult to maintain or make record of each tiny detail of the events. This approach was not reliable, inconvenient, and difficult for the coordinator to log input in a manual form. This manual method is overtaken by the application approach. With the help of this application a team can coordinate and communicate to make any changes in the planning of the events, also group of people can also see the changes simultaneously from any location. It is user friendly and saves time of both organizer and visitors. If we will talk from the prospective of organizer they can update and make the changes in the events with the single request. Attendee can create request according to their need and it will directly be forwarded to the organizer. And yes of course, this approach secures organizer data as well as attendee data. Less manpower is required and can be only accessed by authorized personnel or the individual which is allowed to do so.

Published: February 2022

Yayasan Pengembangan Anak Indonesia biMBA-AIUEO adalah sebuah lembaga pendidikan anak usia dini non- formal yang berada di bawah naungan Yayasan Pengembangan Anak Indonesia (YPAI). Setiap tahun diadakan seleksi penerimaan calon pendidik baru untuk membantu kegiatan belajar mengajar. Yayasan Pengembangan Anak Indonesia biMBA AIUEO memiliki metode tersendiri dalam menentukan perpanjangan kontrak kerja motivator yang dinyatakan lulus dalam tes evaluasi kompetensi dasar motivator. Saat ini, pengolahan data evaluasi kompetensi dasar motivator sudah terkomputerisi, namun hanya menggunakan aplikasi Excel dan belum menggunakan rumus-rumus bisnis / formula otomatis yang ada di dalam aplikasi tersebut sehingga menyebabkan pengolahan data penilaian motivator membutuhkan waktu yang lama. Selain itu, tenaga administrasi yang belum familier dengan penggunaan teknologi informasi juga menjadi penyebab pengolahan data evaluasi kompetensi dasar motivator menjadi lama. Berdasarkan kondisi diatas, maka peneliti mengusulkan untuk membangun sebuah sistem penunjang keputusan guna membantu pihak manajemen dalam menentukan perpanjangan kontrak kerja motivator. Penelitian ini menggunakan metode SAW (Simple Additive Weighting) untuk menghitung bobot preferensi untuk setiap setiap kriteria penilaian. Alasan peneliti menggunakan metode tersebut dikarenakan nilai bobot evaluasi kompetensi dasar motivator untuk setiap kriteria sudah diketahui berdasarkan hasil wawancara dengan pihak manajemen. Metode pengumpulan data yang digunakan dalam penelitian ini meliputi : wawancara, pengamatan langsung (observasi), dokumentasi dan angket kuesioner. Sistem penunjang keputusan ini dibuat dengan menggunakan MySQL sebagai database dan Microsoft Visual Studio 2008 sebagai tool untuk pembuatan aplikasi. Tujuan akhir dari penelitian ini adalah menghasilkan prototipe sistem penunjang keputusan dengan menggunakan metode Simple Additive Weighting (SAW) guna menentukan perpanjangan kontrak kerja motivator berdasarkan hasil penilaian evaluasi kompetensi dasar motivator.

Introduction: Preoperative anxiety is a common attitude in patients scheduled to undergo r surgery and represents with psychological and physical
disturbances affecting postoperative recovery and quality of life (QoL).
Objective: The aim of this study was to identify the effect of preoperative education on preoperative and postoperative anxiety and postoperative
QoLin patients scheduled to undergo laparoscopic cholecystectomy (LC) and inguinal hernia (IH) repair, without prior surgical experience.
Methods: Patients scheduled to underwent LC and IH repair were randomly assigned to control group (CG) and to interventional group (IG). The
'State-Trait Anxiety Inventory for Adults' questionnaire was used to validate anxiety before surgery and after 3 months postoperatively. The 36-
item Medical Outcomes Short Form Health Survey (SF-36) was used to investigate mental, physical and emotional domains of QoL. The CG was
received only routine information by doctors. The IG received additionally oral information plus a booklet from an experienced surgical nurse.
Data analyzed using paired and unpaired t-test and Αnova tests. The level of statistical signicance was set at ≤ 5%.
Results: Four hundred and fty patients were scheduled to undergo either LC or IH repair, with 200 assigned to the IG and 250 to the CG. Age, sex,
marital status and educational level were similar in both groups. Postoperative State anxiety was signicantly lower in IG (p<0.001). Patients of the
IG showed greater improvement in all of the SF-36 scale domains, specically in physical functionality (p<0.001), physical role (p<0.001),
physical pain (p<0.001), general health (p<0.001), vitality (p<0.001), social functionality (p<0.001), emotional role (p<0.001) and mental health
(p<0.001). There was not mortality or signicant morbidity in both groups.
Conclusion: Preoperative education by an experienced nurse with oral and written information improves perioperative state anxiety and QoL. This
method could be used for all surgical patients, irrespective for the surgical procedure.
Non-Uniform Diffraction Pattern of 2D-Cross-Grating ---Rotating Grating Around Three Axes
Authors: peng hui
Published: February 2022

The orientation-dependence of the diffraction patterns of the 1D-grating experiments have been systematically studied by utilizing the 3-axis-rotation apparatus. It is shown that the spacings between adjacent diffraction orders are non-uniform. Namely, from “one end” of the pattern to “other end”, the spacings between adjacent diffraction orders gradually increase. In this article, we systematically study the orientation-dependence of the diffraction patterns of the 2D-cross-grating. The experiments show that the diffraction patterns are non-uniform as that of the 1D-grating experiments.

This extraordinary phenomenon challenges the existing theoretical description of the grating experiments. The above observed phenomena provide the comprehensive phenomena to theoretical study of the grating experiments. We suggest that the complete mathematical model should contain three rotation angles as parameters and should be able to describe the phenomena of the non-uniform-spacing, curved, expanded, inclined and mirror-symmetric diffraction patterns consistently.

Considerable differences exist in prevalence and mortality rates from COVID-19 across countries due to the extent of prevention measures instigated and their timeliness. There has been considerable controversy surrounding hydroxychloroquine, with resultant misinformation increasing medicine prices and suicides. Prices have also increased for Personal Protective Equipment (PPE). There are also growing concerns regarding the unintended consequences from COVID-19 including patients with non-communicable diseases. Consequently, a need to investigate key areas and the preparedness of community pharmacists, who play a key role in Namibia and the wider global community to provide future direction. In view of this, we sought to assess changes in utilisation, prices and shortages of relevant medicines early in the pandemic in Namibia combined with the preparedness of community pharmacists to deal with key issues to guide future activities. This was achieved via a questionnaire survey among ’55 pharmacists and assistants from March to end June 2020 including suggestions on potential ways forward and comparisons with other African and Asian countries. We found limited increases in the utilisation of antimalarials and antibiotics in Namibia versus Bangladesh, Ghana, and Nigeria, enhanced by restrictions on self-purchasing in Namibia reflected by limited price rises and shortages. This is encouraging. Higher use of vitamin c and immune boosters in Ghana and Nigeria versus Namibia reflected in higher price rises, with increased utilisation and prices of PPE across a range of African and Asian countries. Encouragingly limited increases in herbal medicine use in Namibia. Future roles of community pharmacists in pandemics include education, good stock control, and screening. More research is needed assessing the unintended consequences of COVID-19.

This Note is organized as follows. Part I discusses the historical development of the substantial similarity inquiry and its role in a Plaintiff’s prima facie case of copyright infringement. Part II evaluates more recent developments in the substantial similarity inquiry. Part III argues that the various standards that lower courts have developed are themselves substantially similar to each other. This analysis is in line with the Sixth Circuit’s decision in Kohus. Although largely ignored by the scholarly community, the Sixth Circuit’s decision in Kohus got it right.

Published: February 2022

In the present article, the combined impact of vertical throughflow and temperature-reliant viscosity on the fluid-saturated anisotropic porous matrix is considered for investigation numerically by the Galerkin technique. The temperature-reliant viscosity is known to be exponential. The porous matrix is subject to continuous vertical throughflow. A parametric analysis is conducted by adjusting the following parameters: throughflow parameter, viscosity parameter, mechanical anisotropic parameter, and anisotropic thermal parameter. The findings reveal that the impacts of raising the viscosity parameter, downward throughflow parameter, and anisotropic thermal parameter delay the beginning of convection, whereas increasing mechanical anisotropic parameter and upward throughflow parameter destabilizes the porous system.
