Published: June 2018

O objetivo do presente trabalho foi avaliar a influência de diferentes índices de acidez do óleo de peixe na nutrição de alevinos de tilápia (Oreochromis niloticus). Para tanto, 160 alevinos com peso e comprimento total inicial médio de 29,49 ± 1,29 g e 11,87 ± 0,13 cm, respectivamente, foram distribuídos em um delineamento inteiramente casualizado em 16 hapas com 0,15 m3 de volume útil dispostos em um tanque de concreto com capacidade volumétrica de 25 m3. Foram elaboradas quatro rações extrusadas, sendo uma a base de óleo de soja (controle) com índice de acidez de 0,24, e três rações a base de óleo de peixe com índices de acidez de 1,48; 6,40 e 9,85. Os peixes foram alimentados quatro vezes ao dia até a saciedade aparente. Foram avaliados o desempenho produtivo, a composição centesimal e as características hematológicas dos animais. Ao final do período experimental observou-se que os parâmetros analisados não foram influenciados pelos índices de acidez avaliados (P>0,05). Portanto, o óleo de peixe pode ser fornecido aos animais independente de seu índice de acidez, sem proporcionar diferenças no desempenho zootécnico.

Authors: Greil S. , Edtmaier C. , Haubner R. , Lauter L.
Published: June 2018

The mechanical properties and microstructures of alloys play an important role in the different steps of the coin manufacturing process. Only few data are available for the precious metals gold and silver as well as for their respective alloys. Several different circular coin blanks were metallographically examined in order to provide a better estimation of the impact of the production steps on the material. An electrochemical polishing method was developed aiming at obtaining contrast-rich and artifact-free micrographs. The microhardness was systematically measured on the whole surface of polished cross sections in order to generate distribution mappings. Object of the examination was fine gold (Au 999.9) and ducat gold (Au 986) which are primarily used to manufacture bullion and collector coins.
Striving for Human Rights in an Age of Religious Extremism
Authors: Ghanea Nazila
Published: June 2018

Bahá’u’lláh emphasizes, “Be anxiously concerned with the needs of the age ye live in” (Gleanings 213). Undoubtedly two such “needs” in this present age are dealing with religious extremism and clarifying the role of religion in human rights. The message of the Universal House of Justice to the world’s religious leaders in April 2002 bemoans the fact that, “Tragically, organized religion, whose very reason for being entails service to the cause of brotherhood and peace, behaves all too frequently as one of the most formidable obstacles in the path; to cite a particular painful fact, it has long lent its credibility to fanaticism” (¶ 2).
Reflections on the Art of My Poetry
Authors: Hatcher John , White Roger
Published: June 2018

An Interview of Roger White - Conducted and Edited by John S. Hatcher
In 1991, well-known Bahá’í poet Roger White retired from his work at the Bahá’í World Centre because he was dying of cancer. John Hatcher had always intended to write a piece on Roger’s poetry, and suddenly aware of the brief chance he had to pose all the relevant questions to Roger about his art, Hatcher talked to Roger on the phone, recorded his responses on tape, and had the results of that Q&A transcribed. The following dialogue is the result of Hatcher’s original objective and Roger’s willingness, despite his failing health, to participate in creating what is a remarkably frank and revealing conversation. While some of the discussion involves Bahá’í terms, it provides a glimpse into the mind of a gifted poet and the struggles that he, like so many other Bahá’í artists, encountered in trying to respond to the exhortation from Bahá’u’lláh that art best serves humanity when it elevates and edifies the soul and its spiritual receptivity. Surely Roger’s poetry accomplished that objective for many Bahá’ís, and doubtless it will continue to do so well into the future.
Personal Journey toward Reconciliation
Authors: Verge Patricia
Published: June 2018

In describing a personal journey of engagement with Indigenous peoples, the author emphasizes the importance of learning, listening, and personal transformation, as well as the potentialities of the Bahá’í community’s current series of global plans. These plans seek to build capacity in every human group to arise and contribute to the advancement of civilization. The methods and approaches of the plans also have potential to “disable every instrument devised by humanity over the long period of its childhood for one group to oppress another” (The Universal House of Justice, 28 December 2010).
Building Intercultural Community
Authors: Horton Chelsea
Published: June 2018

Drawing on interviews with Indigenous Bahá’ís from diverse backgrounds in Canada and the United States, this article explores efforts and experiences of intercultural Bahá’í community building dating from the 1960s through the early 1990s. At a time when colonial policies and attitudes remained ripe in North America at large, the Bahá’í Faith was a site of intercultural learning and exchange through which Indigenous and non-Indigenous adherents forged striking relationships of mutual respect. Building Bahá’í community in the decades considered here, however, was neither easy nor automatic and was especially fraught for Indigenous adherents, who also confronted tensions of intercultural communication and understanding and sometimes outright racism. Implementing unity in diversity is a gradual process that continues to be worked out in particular contexts over time. This process itself reveals the Bahá’í religion’s role as a rich space of intercultural contact and community building.
Encouragement, Challenges, Healing, and Progress
Authors: Kahn Alfred
Published: June 2018

In his article, Alfred Kahn calls for all people to participate in a conversation about the challenges of Indigenous Communities and to participate in community-building activities among Indigenous people. Nephew of Franklin Kahn, the first Native American to be elected to the National Spiritual Assembly, the author shares his perspective on growing up among Bahá’í pioneers on Indigenous land. He also shares his candid assessment of the prophetic promises in the Bahá’í Writings about Native Americans’ potential to contribute greatly to the peoples of the world once they have reconciled their own traditional views and teachings with the global promises of Bahá’u’lláh.
Evaluation of combustibility and energy potential of municipal solid waste: The case of Esenler Municipality
Authors: Taşpınar Fatih , Uslu M. Akif
Published: June 2018

Waste management legislation has been amended and a
policy has been set up to reduce the amount of waste sent to landfills within
the framework of the EU regulations adoptions in Turkey. In this respect, the
disposal of biodegradable wastes on landfills have been introduced and
restricted with The Regulation on Landfilling of Wastes. For this purpose, the
use of mechanical, biological and thermal processes to reduce waste amounts is
envisaged. In this study, solid wastes produced in Esenler Municipality is
characterized. Representative municipal solid waste (MSW) samples were collected
and calorific values of MSW obtained from different socio-economic regions
within the study area were examined.
Robust uncertainty modelling of energy variations in electric motors for efficient and reliable mechanical structural analysis
Authors: Mayda Murat
Published: June 2018

The mechanical power and rotational speed of
electric motors have significantly uncertainties arising from energy variations
such as the magnetic energy, the flux linkage variation of the winding, and the
air gap due to the rotor position. The main aim of this work is to address the
effect of the uncertain output power and rotational speed of an electric motor
on mechanical structural analysis, especially on the torsional analysis, and
accordingly to model the statistical characteristics of variations in torque of
the motors in consideration of different powers and speeds for further
efficient and reliable mechanical structural analysis under uncertainty. To
perform these tasks, a case study that is the torsional loading of a shaft by
an electric motor and generator, is carried out. The results show that the
uncertainty of power and speed in electric motors considerably affects the
probability of failure of the shaft in case of exceeding the maximum shear
stress, and increasing the speed at a given power does not significantly change
the COV value of the torque whereas increasing the power at a given speed can
relatively change the COV value of the torque. The obtained average of the COV
values (0.0023) of torque with normal distribution is fairly sufficient for
indicating the variations in the torque of electric motors. Moreover, the
obtained torque uncertainty can be easily and efficiently used in the
mechanical structural analysis under both deterministic and stochastic cases.
Investigation of effects of spark plug gap on vibration, noise and HC emission in a gasoline engine
Authors: GÜLTEKİN Nurullah , MAYDA Murat
Published: June 2018

There are many factors that affect the operation of vehicle
engines. Not working regularly of an engine causes a decrease in the
performance; on the other hand, an increase in the fuel consumption, the
vibration and the HC emission. These adverse impacts reduce vehicle comfort and
increase travel costs, and also damage nature much more. Vehicles are normally
designed in such a way that they provide optimum operating parameters. However,
as the vehicle is used, these parameters negatively change. In this study, it
has been investigated that the effects of spark plug gap on vibration, noise
and HC emission in a gasoline engine. It is a fact that, the spark plug is
abraded in a certain amount because it is continuously ignited. This abrasion
increases the distance between the center electrode and the electrode head, and
changes the quality of the composed spark. In experiments, it has been detected
that, when the spark plug clearance and the number of revolutions are
increased, the vibration and noise increase proportionally; on the other hand,
the exhaust emission (HC) value increases at 0,7 mm, 0,8 mm and 1,0 mm plug gap
and decreases at 0,9 mm plug gap. As a result, setting the standard spark plug
gap in the gasoline engines to 0,9 mm instead of 0,7 mm can provide a
significant reduction in exhaust emissions; thus, an improvement in performance
can be achieved.
SPECIAL THEORY OF ADMINISTRATIVE – LEGAL REGULATION OF INFORMATION SECURITY OF THE SOCIAL SYSTEMS
Authors: Lysenko Serhiі Oleksiyovych
Published: June 2018

The article deals with the principles of creating a special theory of administrative and legal regulation of information security, analyzes the process of its analogy with physical laws, analyzes the threats and dangers to interests and all information security that affect the process of modeling, determines the principles of constructing and researching models of information security of social systems.It was noted that the administrative and legal regulation of information secu- rity is due to the need for state management of the processes of formation and use of information resources, the creation and application of information systems and the provision of information security of social systems. It is proved that to a large extent information security is caused by the need for administrative regulation of information relations in various spheres that form the system itself and maintain its integrity. It is determined that the administrative and legal basis of information security of social systems should provide an ideal state of activity of subjects, system and its models. Selected concrete administrative and legal principles of information security, such as physical formulas, create its model. Of course, for each social system, the model of information security is individual. However, there are also general patterns of modeling, for example — the construction of the model should be based on the simple and optimal (as we are referred to by the flow of light), administrative and legal principles.It is proved that high rates of development of information technologies, create new requirements to the sphere of security in general and to information security in particular. The reform of the legislation regulating activity in the field of infor- mation security should be based on the proper scientific theory. What is urgent is the need to create a General Security Theory, which would explain and regulate the set of processes of ensuring the safety of society.
GENESIS OF SCIENTIFIC CONCEPTS ABOUT PUBLIC ADMINISTRATION OF RISKS IN CONSTRUCTION
Authors: Vlasenko Ihor Nikolayevich
Published: June 2018

The article presents the characteristic of the scientific genesis of public risk management in construction in Ukraine, in global and local dimensions. The essence of the working organization of risk management in the construction and operation of buildings, taking into account the transformational processes in society, is disclosed. On the basis of the analysis of risks in construction and taking into account the current realities, scientifically grounded approaches to the formation of the risk system in the construction and operation of facilities in the system of public administration. It is noted that the risks and crisis phenomena in the construction complex gave a powerful impetus to understanding the causes of the problems of decentralization and finding mechanisms for their elimination, in general. The trilateral mission of the state in the conditions of decentralization is the regulation of the macroeconomic role of the construction complex, the mechanism of economic relations of its participants, and ensuring the effectiveness of design decisions in the construction sector, by extending their competences on prevention and risk reduction in the construction industry by the local self-government bodies. To form a state decentralization policy for construction is required on the basis of knowledge of objective regional macro- and microeconomic investment-construction processes in cities, economic mechanism and indicators of development of investment-building complex and dynamics of social and economic development of regions. The mechanism of the construction complex needs to be improved, using new sources and forms of financing, achieving the balance of the goals of decentralization and its financial support. In addition, taking into account the European integration course of the announced reforms, the European understanding of the essence of risk management in construction during decentralization becomes of paramount importance. Therefore, further research requires the study of the experience of European countries in the implementation of risk management processes in construction during the decentralization of power and the analysis of foreign systems of management mechanisms, in the context of their implementation in the national practice of public administration.
WAYS TOWARDS ADVANCED AUTOMATIC MEASURES TO PREVENT VAT EVASION
Authors: Grona Andrew Vadimovich
Published: June 2018

This paper intends to bring a view on possible measures, which the Cabinet of Ministers and Finance Department of Ukraine are authorized to implement. These measures concern introducing new criteria for evaluating the level of risks, sufficient for stopping a registration of tax invoices/adjustment calculations, depending on a kind of the stated goods’ issue. Both the criteria and implementation of those are based on the information, received from an automated VAT payers’ inventory accounting system, necessary for creationas a component of VAT electronic administration system. The paper brings a view on measures, intended to automate a processof reviewing tax payers’ written explanations by the SFS committee, established in accord to FDU’s order # 566 on 13.06.2017. In addition, some automatic measures to prevent realizing the “twisting” operations have been proposed in the paper. It was noted that the procedure for stopping the registration of risky tax invoices was introduced as a means of automatically preventing such a widespread VAT avoidance scheme as a “twist” for all goods, and not just for fuel. In this article, under the risky tax billing/ adjustment calculations, it is proposed to understand such tax invoices/adjustments calculations that satisfy the approved criteria of the Ministry of Finance to assess the degree of risk sufficient to stop their registration. It is noted that the principle of indiscretion has already been established in Ukraine. It is established prematurely, since it is not yet backed up by effective automatic measures to prevent VAT deviations. The real implementation of this principle is one of the key points in improving the investment climate and implementing economic reforms in Ukraine. It will sharply increase the level of freedom of doing business in Ukraine, will open the way for an automatic VAT refund procedure and deprive enterprises of unreasonable checks that are carried out in connection with the detection of tax breaches by their counterparties (and, more often, counteragents of their counterparties).
DEFINITION OF THE PUBLIC SECURITY AND ORDERLINESS ENSURING MECHANISM IN UKRAINE
Authors: Kalievskaya Marina Aleksandrovna
Published: June 2018

In this article, a model of the mechanism of ensuring public security and orderliness in accordance with the principles and tasks of the relevant institutions in public administration, taking into account resources, technologies, measures for the state policy implementation in the spheres of ensuring the protection of human rights and freedoms, the interests of society and the state, combating crime, maintaining public security and order. It was found that ensuring public security and order in Ukraine is a mechanism for the implementation of national goals of state policy in the areas of ensuring the protection of human rights and freedoms, the interests of society and the state, combating crime, maintaining public security and order, by defining tasks according to certain principles. The idea is that if one considers the state policy in the spheres of ensuring the protection of human rights and freedoms, the interests of society and the state, combating crime, maintaining public security and order as a national priority (purpose, task), then the mechanism of ensuring public security and order in Ukraine needs coordination with the state development strategy. From the point of view of the implementation of the state policy in the areas of ensuring the protection of human rights and freedoms, the interests of society and the state, combating crime, maintaining public security and order, the mechanism of ensuring public security and order in Ukraine can be considered as the main system providing interconnection such elements as institutions (implementing the specified state policy), resources (human resources, logistical, natural and so on, with the help of which it is possible to implement state policy), technologies (skills, knowledge, means and so on the implementation of state policy), measures (action plans), as well as external (internal) threats.
KEY ASPECTS OF TRANSFORMATION OF THE STATE AUTHORITIES IN THE WORLD AND TO THE MODERN SOVERUM UKRAINE: A JOINT AND PERSONALITY
Authors: Caracasidi Оlena Fedorіvna
Published: June 2018

The article deals with the fundamental, inherent in most of the countries of the world transformation of state power, its formation, functioning and division between the main branches as a result of the decentralization of such power, its subsidiarity. Attention is drawn to the specifics of state power, its functional features in the conditions of sovereignty of the states, their interconnection. It is emphasized that the nature of the state power is connected with the nature of the political system of the state, with the form of government and many other aspects of a fundamental nature. It is analyzed that in the middle of national states the questions of legitimacy, sovereignty of transparency of state power, its formation are acutely raised. Concerning the practical functioning of state power, a deeper study now needs a problem of separation of powers and the distribution of power. The use of this principle, which ensures the real subsidiarity of the authorities, the formation of more effective, responsible democratic relations between state power and civil society, is the first priority of the transformation of state power in the conditions of modern transformations of countries and societies. It is substantiated that the research of these problems will open up much wider opportunities for the provision of state power not as a center authority, but also as a leading political structure but as a power of the people and the community. In the context of global democratization processes, such processes are crucial for a more humanistic and civilized arrangement of human life. It is noted that local self-government, as a specific form of public power, is also characterized by an expressive feature of a special subject of power (territorial community) as a set of large numbers of people; joint communal property; tax system, etc.
SUBJECTS AND OBJECTS OF PUBLIC MARKETING
Authors: Romat Yevgeny Victorovich , Havrilechko Yury Volodimirovich
Published: June 2018

The article is devoted to research of theoretical problems of the concepts of the subject and object of public marketing. The definitions of these concepts are considered in the article, the evolution of their development is studied. The article provides an analysis of the main approaches to the notion of subjects and objects of public marketing, their relationship and role in the processes of public marketing. The authors proposes concrete approaches to their systematization. These approaches allow us to identify specific types of public marketing and their main characteristics.

Relying on the analysis of the concept of “subject of public (state) management”, it is concluded that as bodies of state marketing, most often act as executive bodies of state power. In this case, the following levels of marketing subjects in the system of public administration are allocated: the highest level of executive power; Branch central bodies of executive power; Local government bodies; Separate government agencies.

It is noted that the diversity of subjects of public marketing is explained, first of all, by the dependence on the tasks of the state and municipal government, the possibilities of introducing the marketing concept of these subjects and certain characteristics of the said objects of state marketing.

It is noted that the concept of “subject of public marketing” is not always the identical notion of “subject of public administration”. First, not all public authorities are subjects of state marketing. In some cases, this is not appropriate, for example, in the activities of the Ministry of Defense of Ukraine or the Ministry of Internal Affairs of Ukraine. Secondly, state marketing is just one of many alternative management concepts, which is not always the most effective in the public administration system.
REFORMING OF THE LOCAL GOVERNMENT IN UKRAINE: PRACTICAL ASPECTS
Authors: Suray Inna Gennadiivna , Mazurenko Mikhail Pavlovich
Published: June 2018

The practical aspects of the reform of local government in Ukraine at the present stage of decentralization of power are highlighted, namely: in the conditions of voluntary association of territorial communities on the example of Koropsky district of Chernihiv region. It is proved that the administrative and territorial reform of the territorial formation of the administrative unit, which will carry the name of the rayon and which will unite several united territorial communities, should be a logical continuation of the process of completion of the association of territorial communities. This should depend on the geographical location, the availability of infrastructure, the road transport network, the availability of medical services, and other factors.

It was noted that in order to ensure the implementation of the provisions of the Concept for the reform of local self-government and the territorial organization of power in Ukraine, a district council of representatives of OTG should be formed in such a structural unit, which will provide the main powers of local government bodies at the district level. The district council should establish its own executive body, which should be under its control and accountable. The system of central executive authorities in the newly created administrative unit (rayon) may be represented by the relevant body set up by the Cabinet of Ministers of Ukraine, whose functions should include the coordination of the activities of the territorial units of the executive power on the ground and control over the targeted and effective use of the State budget funds that will be received on the development of the respective territories.

It has been determined that local authorities, which are one of the main subjects of public administration at the local level and, in particular, the development of territories, most in their activity take into account the traditions of the people, their mentality, the level of development of civil society and its ability.
EUROONTEGRATION ASPECTS OF BASIC MECHANISMS DEVELOPMENT IN PUBLIC ADMINISTRATION
Authors: Usachenko Alexander Alexandrovich
Published: June 2018

The article considers a number of European integration aspects of the basic mechanisms development in public administration in the context of the “Good Governance” paradigm. Their peculiarities and corresponding problem questions are singled out.

Proved that the efficiency and effectiveness of adopting and implementing state-management decisions associated with an increase in receiving and processing information electronically through a computer system and information technology (electronic information and referral and information-legal systems, networks, grid-technology, automated work places of the manager, etc.). It is about forecasting, planning and designing, monitoring, evaluation, monitoring, etc. All of this relates to strategic management and planning, programmatic and targeted (government action programs, national and other targeted programs, regional programs, national projects) management, state and local budgeting.

It is noted that increasing the efficiency of providing various administrative services is associated with an increase in the volume of administrative services and their geography and the reduction in the time of their provision (technology “single window”, information and reference electronic networks, etc.).

Identified the introduction of the model and paradigm of “good governance” in the national system of public administration, ignoring the world, especially European experience implementing the model and paradigm of “good governance”; excessive lobbying for decentralization by the authorities at the city level; an attempt to reform the public administration system, in particular by moving to the model of “state management” in real conditions of the limited budget of the state; lack of serious preparedness, first of all recruiting, to such a transition; in fact, there is an artificial attempt to combine two different models of public administration, namely, “good governance” and “state management”, etc.
COOPERATION OF INTERNATIONAL INSTITUTIONS ON PUBLIC POLICY FORMATION FOR THE PREVENTION OF MONEY-LAUNDERING
Authors: Sciurba Michele
Published: June 2018

This article is devoted to the research of theoretical and practical issues of international institutions concerning the cooperation on the formation of anti-money laundering state regulation. The article provides an analysis of the main activity fields of intergovernmental institutions in the prevention of laundering “dirty” money. It is shown that the goal of consolidating the efforts of international structures is to integrate standards and recommendations into the mechanisms of public administration in order to ensure financial stability and integrity of state development as well as better financial supervision and control by the state.

It is noted that the problem of money laundering can not be solved only by creating new organizational forms of state control, extraordinary and punitive measures. It requires understanding of this phenomenon as having an economic, political, ethical, managerial and legal background. The process of state regulation of money laundering should apply to all employees of state authorities, administration, justice, (stipulated by the legislation of a number of countries) and public entities with public service functions, and not just so-called officials. Important regulations for the forms and procedures for monitoring civil servants, the availability and effectiveness of the code of ethics and behavior.

It is substantiated that the effectiveness of implementing measures to prevent corruption can not be achieved through single and non-systemic actions at different levels, but requires long-term socio-economic, political and legal transformations. This activity should be based on a combination of a number of preventive and repressive measures.

Thus, the fight against money laundering and terrorist financing is now considered as a priority direction in counteracting organized crime in most countries of the world and in the world community as a whole.
OBJECTIVES AND FUNCTIONS OF LOBISTRY ACTIVITY IN UKRAINE: REALITIES TODAY AND EVOLUTIONARY FORECAST
Authors: Yarovoy Tikhon Sergeyevich
Published: June 2018

The article is devoted to the research of goals and functions of lobbying activity. The author has processed the ideas of domestic and foreign scientists, proposed his own approaches to the definition of goals and functions of lobbying activities through the prism of public administration. As a result, a generalized vision of the goals and functions of lobbying activities as interrelated elements of the lobbying system was proposed, and a forecast for further evolution of the goals and functions of domestic lobbying was provided.

The analysis of lobbying functions allowed us to notice the tendencies in shifting the goals of this activity. If the objectives were fully covered by functions such as mediation between citizens and the state, the information function and the function of organizing plurality of public interests, then the role of strengthening the self-organization of civil society and the function of compromise become increasingly important in the process of formation in the developed countries of civil society and the development of telecommunication technologies.

Ukrainian lobbyism will not be left to the side of this process. Already, politicians of the highest level, leaders of financial and industrial groups have to act, adjust their goals (even if they are — declared), taking into account the reaction of the public. In the future, this trend will only increase. The analysis of current research and political events provides all grounds for believing that, while proper regulatory legislation is being formed in Ukraine, the goals and functions of domestic lobbying will essentially shift towards a compromise with the public.

It is noted that in spite of the existence of a basic direction of action, lobbying may have several ramified goals. Guided by the goals set, lobbyism can manifest itself in various spheres of the political system of society, combining the closely intertwined interests of various actors in the lobbying process, or even — contrasting them.
FOUR BASIC METHODS OF TEACHING ENGLISH IN A CHRONOLOGICAL ORDER OF THEIR DEVELOPMENT: APPLICATION IN THE SYSTEM OF PUBLIC ADMINISTRATION TRAINING
Authors: Kolisnichenko Natalya Nikolayevna , Yatsun Yevgeniya Matveyevna
Published: June 2018

The article is devoted to the comparative analysis of the basic methods of teaching English in chronological order of their development. The following teaching methods are studied: grammar translation method, direct method, audio-linguistic method, communicative teaching method. The specific features of each method, their positive and negative characteristics are revealed. The peculiarities of their application in the system of training in public administration are considered. It is determined that training in the field of public administration corresponds to the activities of those who study, namely, public administration, both in terms of subject matter and linguistic content and language learning activities. In general, teaching / learning a foreign language is not essential, so teachers and students / students should only focus on certain aspects of a foreign language. Thus, general language learning should be combined with professional training. In groups with a sufficient level of language proficiency, it is immediately possible to begin a special vocational-oriented training. And, conversely, in groups with low and average English proficiency it is necessary to focus first of all on general language training, and then on professionally oriented. Grammatical material should always be developed and used in oral language. It is noted that an important role in the study of foreign languages is given to the assimilation of professional vocabulary. Assimilation of lexical units is carried out in order to develop the skills of oral communication and is aimed at the implementation of communication skills and an adequate response in typical situations of professional communication, both verbal (for compilation of messages on professional subjects) and written (ability to write resume, any documents, etc.). After all, the possession of the working or official languages of the community provides in practice wide opportunities for obtaining international experience in public administration, undergo internships, work in international projects, etc. In the context of broad international relations with other countries, it is important to communicate with foreign specialists, to develop professional-business and personal contacts with foreign partners, colleagues, to read different editions in the original language.
ADMINISTRATION DECISION-MAKING UNDER THE CONDITIONS OF EMERGENCY
Authors: Terentieva Anna Valeriivna
Published: June 2018

The author has analyzed the problem aspects of public administration of educational change in modern Ukraine. Special frameworks of public administration of educational change in an information society have been determined. The author has analyzed the categories of the implementation process of educational change. The author has explored the key features of external environment of such activity, formed by regulatory acts for settling relations in a particular area. The author has highlighted a set of contradictions of public management of educational change and recommendations for state agencies regarding the organization of an effective process of implementation of educational change as a social and political process with an emphasis on peculiar properties of the educational change. It is determined that the updated legal and regulatory framework of the educational sector, at the same time, extends the scope of professional freedom of teaching and, hence, sets high requirements for the professionalism of teachers. The change in the focus of educational activity by innovations is declared in terms of practice, interactivity and functionality. The teacher will now create educational and training programs tailored to the needs of students and local communities, will create an open learning environment, taking into account the potential of the school and involving the partners in the educational process. However, it has been proved that the methods of active and problem-searching approach defined in the updated normative provision of education in Ukraine require appropriate conditions for the educational process. An active student becomes an active citizen; school, school environment and class become a micro-society. Like the society itself, the school environment is not devoid of conflicts or problem situations. It is in these conditions that students have the opportunity to learn to consciously identify their own interests and gain experience in civic activity.
CONCEPTUAL APPROACHES TO THE ISSUE OF FORMING PARLIAMENTARY COALITIONS
Authors: Turyk Mykola Volodymyrovych
Published: June 2018

The article determines that a coalition is the union of two or more participants who have agreed on joint actions for a certain period in order to achieve a common goal; it is stated that for the creation of a coalition there should be preconditions, in particular: presence of at least two participants; readiness for risk, awareness, rationality; the emphasis is placed on the fact that any organization, the coalition has a life cycle of the organization, consisting of the following stages: ‘Birth’, ‘Existence; and ‘Decay’; party coalition is systematized according to the following criteria: by the number of participants; by the number of political parties that have signed a coalition agreement; in the ideological closeness of the coalition partners; by division of strength between the participants; by the date of foundation; by the degree of formalization; the planned number of problem solving; for the period of existence; depending on the purpose of forming a coalition; depending on their ideological orientation; in the field of activity; and by social status. Party coalitions are typified according to the following criteria: by the number of participants; by the number of political parties that signed the coalition agreement; on the ideological proximity of the partners in the coalition; for the division of powers between the participants; by creation date; by degree of formalization; on the planned number of problem solving; by term of existence; depending on the purpose of forming a coalition; depending on their ideological orientation; by field of activity; on social status. It is determined that today the issue of interaction of the parliamentary coalition with the highest state authorities acquires particular urgency, and will be the subject of further research. It is analyzed that, in accordance with the date of creation, the coalition is divided into pre-election and post-election. According to the degree of formalization: formal (based on the corresponding coalition agreement), or informal (actual support for government initiatives by a majority of deputies in the legislature). According to the planned number of problem solving: complex or to solve one problem.
Traduction sémantique en français et implémentation du Nursing Activities Score en Belgique
Authors: Bruyneel A. , Guerra C. , Tack J. , Droguet M. , Maes J. , Miranda D. Reis
Published: June 2018

Introduction : L’évaluation du temps de travail en soins infirmiers est une pratique courante aux soins intensifs. Elle permet de calculer un ratio infirmière/patient optimal qui est un enjeu majeur pour assurer la qualité des soins et maîtriser les coûts des soins de santé. Le Nursing Activities Score (NAS) permet de calculer ce ratio, mais l’outil n’a jamais été traduit en français et adapté à la Belgique.

Objectif : Traduire et adapter le NAS à la Belgique francophone.

Méthodes: L’échelle a été traduite par deux traducteurs indépendants de l’anglais vers le français. Ensuite, une traduction rétrograde du français à l’anglais a été réalisée. Une adaptation culturelle a été effectuée en réunissant un groupe de 13 infirmiers belges. Enfin, l’échelle traduite a été validée et implémentée dans deux unités de soins intensifs (USI) distinctes en Belgique francophone.

Résultats : La traduction rétrograde était similaire à la première traduction. La réunion avec le groupe d’experts a permis de trouver un consensus sur l’adaptation de l’échelle et le tutoriel adaptés au contexte des soins en Belgique. Pour la validation, le NAS a été encodé chez 113 patients et avec 981 NAS encodés dans deux USI, la médiane de NAS/patient était respectivement de 69 et 76 %. Le temps médian d’encodage du NAS était de trois minutes par patient. Nous avons observé une compliance élevée de l’encodage du NAS (respectivement 99 et 76 %).

Conclusions : Nous avons validé une échelle traduite en français conforme à la version originale et adaptée au contexte des soins en Belgique.
Place des référents en antibiothérapie en réanimation
Authors: Lesprit P.
Published: June 2018

Dans les hôpitaux français, les référents antibiotiques ont comme principale mission d’assurer une activité de conseil sur le bon usage des antibiotiques sur avis sollicités ou à partir d’alertes générées par la microbiologie ou la pharmacie. À première vue, leurs contributions semblent donc importantes en réanimation, où près d’un patient sur deux reçoit une antibiothérapie pendant son séjour. Plusieurs études ont montré que les avis des infectiologues permettaient d’améliorer la qualité de l’antibiothérapie prescrite et de réduire l’exposition des patients aux antibiotiques. Cependant, les bénéfices de ces interventions sur l’évolution clinique des patients ou sur l’écologie bactérienne sont plus difficiles à démontrer. L’activité des référents antibiotiques doit s’intégrer dans un programme multidisciplinaire de bon usage des antibiotiques, intégrant d’autres intervenants et en premier lieu les réanimateurs, avec lesquels une collaboration étroite est fondamentale pour la réussite de ce programme.
Chaperone-like activities of the two pre-incubated small heat shock proteins of Bombyx mori
Authors: Hossain MT , Aso Y
Published: June 2018

The important small heat shock proteins (sHSPs) of Bombyx mori sHSP19.9, sHSP20.1, sHSP20.4, sHSP20.8, sHSP21.4 and sHSP23.7 are known to display distinct chaperone like activity (CLA) against a range of non-native protein aggregation during environmental stress. The small heat shock proteins sHSP19.9 and sHSP20.8 are identical polypeptides containing a single Cys residue: Cys-43 and Cys-123 respectively. The current information proposes that sHSPs function to prevent irreversible aggregation sometimes pre-incubation is pre-requisite to enhance their chaperone activities. In an attempt to determine their function, we have examined whether these two proteins have CLA using pre-incubation chaperone assay. The assay was conducted against the aggregation of a non-native protein, bovine liver catalase (BLC), which is readily aggregated at 60° C. Heat induced aggregation of BLC was decreased from 100 to 17% in the presence of pre-incubated sHSP20.8, which was 60% for without pre-incubation at a 1:0.5 molar ratio of BLC to sHSP. Whereas the aggregation was decreased from 100 to 33% in the presence of sHSP19.9 with dithiothreitol (DTT) , which was 67% for without pre-incubation at a 1:0.25 molar ratio of BLC to sHSP. The functional reason for such variation might be due to the position of Cys residue in the amino acid sequence.Bang. J. Anim. Sci. 2017. 46 (4): 258-265

This work examined the effects of incorporation of exogenous enzyme preparation on growth and performance traits in broilers fed diet containing 400 g/Kg of L. angustifolius(cv. Arabella) of Europe and L. angustifolius (cv. Kalya) obtained from Australia. A maize- soy (MS) based diet served as a control diet and acted as positive, while non-protein control diet acted as a negative control (NPC) and fed ad libitum for 18 days. Growth rate, apparent digestibility of N, fat and excretion of essential minerals were assessed. In comparison to broilers fed maize-soy (MS) diet, broilers fed the L. angustifolius  of European origin (EL) diet, consumed less feed, had considerably lower body weight gain, as well as lower apparent digestibility. Addition of Rena phytase to the EL (ELPH) and L. angustifolius of Australian origin (ALPH) increased feed intake, however, the feed gain ratio was found to be decreased. . This study indicates that a diet containing high level of lupin meal is detrimental to feed intake broilers and thus affected their performance. However, when lupin meal diet was supplemented with Rena phytase, performance parameters were not different from those obtained from raw meal. The inclusion of lupin meal with or without exogenous enzyme had significant effect on the mineral content of the faeces and on mineral balance. The results suggest that lupin protrein is involved in the elevated loss of minerals associated with long-term effects of this seed as protein source in poultry. Compared to those of control, the N excretion was in the range of 14.9% (EL), 15.6% (ELPH) and 13.9% (ALPH). On the other hand, digestibility was found to be in the range of 78% (EL) and 73% (ELPH) than the corresponding control fed on (MS) diet. The fat excretion was found to be highest in (ALPH) fed diet 19.1% as compared to those of control. True fat digestibility was found to be at the lowest level n ALPH group. The present work has revealed a very remarkable property of L. angustifolius of Australian lupin, that has caused high level of fat excretion in the droppings of broilers fed this as compared to those of its European counterpart. It is highly likely that Australian lupin due to its gel forming character may have caused this kind of response in fecal lipid excretion.Bang. J. Anim. Sci. 2017. 46 (4): 266-272
Polymer Microgripper with Autofocusing and Visual Tracking Operations to Grip Particle Moving in Liquid
Authors: Chang Ren-Jung , Chien Yu-Cheng
Published: June 2018

A visual-servo automatic micromanipulating system was developed and tested for gripping the moving microparticle suspended in liquid well. An innovative design of microgripper integrated with flexible arms was utilized to constrain particles in a moving work space. A novel focus function by non-normalized wavelet entropy was proposed and utilized to estimate the depth for the alignment of microgripper tips and moving particle in the same focus plane. An enhanced tracking algorithm, which is based on Polar Coordinate System Similarity, incorporated with template matching, edge detection method, and circular Hough Transform, was implemented. Experimental tests of the manipulation processes from moving gripper to tracking, gripping, transporting, and releasing 30–50 μm Polystyrene particle in 25 °C water were carried out.
