Context is Key
Authors:   , van der Gaag Renske Sanne
Published: January 2023

Western European countries have seen a major rise in the diversity of their population over the past few decades. At the same time, the ideas of tolerance, acceptance and respect which provided the main components of multiculturalism in the 1990s have been challenged by increasing polarization within society, with immigration representing a topic of heated debates. Despite decreasing (youth) crime rates, immigration is often linked to crime in these debates, and more particularly the overrepresentation in crime statistics of specific groups of young first and second generation children of immigrants. Delinquent development is often directly related to their cultural background, but this association ignores other dynamics in delinquent development such as the influence of more structural socioeconomic and institutional factors. Also most attention is focused on these young people as offenders of criminal behavior, but not as possible victims of crime.

This thesis uses data from the third wave of the International Self-Report Delinquency study, a large study among 11 to 16 year old high school students across more than 30 countries, to examine victimization and offending among native and migrant young people and related explanations across different developmental contexts in Western European countries.
Unpacking the Phosphoproteome
Authors:   , van Alphen Carolien
Published: January 2023

Due to the importance of RTKs in AML leukemogenesis and the current challenges in improving AML patient survival with KI treatment, phosphoproteomics may provide an additional layer of information of functional relevance to bridge the gap between a patient’s mutational status and their variable response to KI treatment. Therefore, the aim of this thesis is to explore the potential of pY phosphoproteomics in guiding AML patient selection for treatment with KIs.

Chapter 2 focusses on the evaluation of the Integrated Inferred Kinase Activity Analysis, INKA. The utility of INKA is shown in multiple settings relevant for cancer research; (i) cancer cell lines with known oncogenes, (ii) cell lines in a differential setting (wild-type versus mutant, +/- drug), (iii) pre- and on-treatment tumor needle biopsies, (iv) cancer cell panel with available drug sensitivity data, and (v) patient-derived tumor xenografts with INKA-guided drug selection and testing.
To expand on previous pY phosphoproteomics experiments, chapter 3 investigates tyrosine kinase signaling in 16 AML cell lines, using INKA in combination with functional testing, to evaluate the potential for individualized identification of signaling pathways and active driver kinases in the context of AML. Validation using KIs is further correlated with target kinase INKA activation metrics.
In chapter 4 we explore the impact of delay of mononuclear cell isolation on the phosphorylation profiles of four clinical AML samples. Here we provide data for a range of time points and evaluate their effect on the stability of the phosphoproteome. Based on the results we formulate a recommendation as to the time frame within which samples should be processed.
In chapter 5 we explore the AML phosphoproteome in 35 clinical samples, including both FLT3-ITD mutant- and FLT3WT samples in relation to their in-vitro response to two FLT3 inhibitors, midostaurin and gilteritinib. Data is provided on differential phosphorylation between FLT3-WT and FLT3-ITD samples and drug responders vs. non-responders. The prime candidate for drug resistance in these samples is tested as a combination therapy.
The general discussion places our findings in the light of current literature and gives a view on future perspectives and next steps towards application of phosphoproteomics into clinical practice.

Objective: The objective of this study was to conduct a study on the characterization and maintenance of equipment in a hospital environment and apply it in the case study conducted as part of an internship at the Instituto de Medicina Molecular João Lobo Antunes (iMM), with a duration of eleven months. This work contributed to the identiﬁcation of improvements to be applied in the Safety and Compliance Department, in the maintenance, calibration, and monitoring of medical-hospital equipment (MHE), to improve their reliability and efﬁciency, the reduction of costs and downtime, and the probability risk to the patient, engineer, or user associated with the equipment. Materials and Methods: This is an MHE study of the iMM, also monitoring the maintenance and calibration of different equipment by technicians and engineers responsible internally and externally. Discussion and Practical Results: A maintenance software for the iMM was chosen to help the institute to have all the equipment information in a more organized way. Monitoring of some iMM equipment was conducted. Conclusion: It was found that the safety of patients, engineers, or users who manage MHE is an extremely principal factor. For this factor not to be harmed, constant monitoring, maintenance, and calibration of the equipment are necessary, ensuring the safety of the user and their proper functioning.

BACKGROUND: The cryopreservation of the sperm of the depik fish, Rasbora tawarensis, has previously been developed. However, the quality of the sperm post cryopreservation was not satisfactory and might be improved through the application of antioxidants. OBJECTIVE:
To determine the most suitable antioxidant for the cryopreservation of the depik fish spermatozoa. MATERIALS AND METHODS: A completely randomized design with a non-factorial experiment was used and the tested antioxidants were glutathione, β-carotene, ascorbic acid, and butylated
hydroxytoluene (BHT) at 6% concentrations. All treatments had three replications. The sperms were collected from 10 male fishes and diluted with Ringer solution in a ratio of 1: 20 (v/v, sperm: Ringer solution). Then 5% DMSO and 5% egg yolk were added to the diluted sperms. Furthermore, 6%
of the tested antioxidants were added to the diluents, and then, cryopreservation was carried out in liquid nitrogen for 14 days. RESULTS: The ANOVA test showed that the application of antioxidants significantly affected the sperm motility, fertility, and hatching rates of the eggs
(P> 0.05). Furthermore, the antioxidants also protected the sperm cells during cryopreservation, with glutathione being the best antioxidant. CONCLUSION: The application of antioxidants during the cryopreservation of depik fish sperm had a significant effect on motility, fertility
and hatchability of eggs post-cryo. Furthermore, glutathione was the most suitable antioxidant.
DIFERENÇAS ENTRE A JUSTIÇA RESTAURATIVA E A JUSTIÇA RETRIBUTIVA
Authors: de Carvalho Robson Augusto Mata , Alves Bruno Moares
Published: January 2023

O presente artigo analisa as diferenças e as semelhanças entre os modelos de justiça retributivo e restaurativo, a partir da perspectiva de Howard Zehr. Os modelos apresentam fundamentos e consequências distintas. Para a Justiça Criminal, o crime é uma violação das normas jurídicas, uma violação contra o Estado. O sistema de justiça cumpre o papel de determinar a culpa e impor punição no contexto de disputa entre o ofensor e o Estado, definido por regras processuais. O diálogo entre vítima e ofensor é considerado irrelevante. Para a Justiça Restaurativa, o crime é uma violação de pessoas e relacionamentos. Como tal, o crime cria a obrigação de corrigir os erros. Ademais, o artigo problematiza a eficácia da punição, à luz de outros autores da literatura restaurativa.

O presente artigo analisa as origens e o modelo de controle das drogas no Brasil. A fim de compreender as disposições normativas que serviram base para o controle e a repressão de usuários e de comerciantes de drogas ilícitas, aborda os contextos histórico, político e cultural das legislações. Sob a influência das discussões e dos acordos internacionais do início do século XX, o Brasil inaugurou uma política criminal de drogas sanitarista que preconizava a criminalização dos entorpecentes. Este modelo, que vigorou por quase meio século, caracteriza-se pela aplicação de saberes e técnicas higienistas às políticas de drogas. As análises fundamentam-se nos campos da História e da Criminologia.
Preliminary report on the Silver content of soils in Northeastern Wisconsin July-August 1977
Authors: Norman Jack C.
Published: January 2023

..These studies have led to the conclusion that silver iodide used for cloud seeding poses no immediate threat to either people or the ecosystem in general.  However, since most of the data have been obtained over the relatively short time span of the last decade and in limited geographical regions (the most extensive work has been done in the Rocky Mountain states), it seems prudent to monitor weather modification activities when they are extended into new areas.....
On the environmental impact of Dry Ice (Solid Carbon Dioxide) used as a seeding agent in Weather Modification
Authors: Norman Jack C.
Published: January 2023

On January 1978, a hearing was held by the Wisconsin State Assembly Agricluture Committee which considered a bill to prohibit weather modification in Wisconsin.  A statement was made during this hearing which suggested that if dry ice were to be used as a seeding agent in northeastern Wisconsin, it would have a detrimental effect on the health of at least one resident of that region....  The statement which suggests that using dry ice as a seeding agent would have an effect on people, even persons who are particularly sensitive to environmental changes, has no basis in fact.  In fact, holding one’s breath for a few seconds or breathing the air near a glass of soda pop or beer would have a much greater effect on carbon dioxide concentrations than clouds seeding with dry ice.
Variations in Rainfall and Insured Crop-Hail Losses Associated with Operational Cloud Seeding in South Dakota
Authors: Dennis Arnett S. , Brown Barbara G.
Published: January 2023

A brief review of operational cloud seeding programs in South Dakota is given, followed by an evaluation on the basis of rainfalldata and insured crop-hail loss data for the years 1948-1978.  All of the projects used silver iodide as the seeding agent, but a wide variety of generator types, seeding rates, and delivery methods was used.  In years w.ith aircraft seeding over small areas, both rainfall and hail damage tended to be larger in target than in non-target counties. The data available do not show such a trend for years when ground-based generators were employed.  In years when 40%or more of the state was seeded, the results for target and non-target counties becameindistinguishable in terms of both rainfall and crop hail damage. However, increases in the area included in cloud seeding programs, using either ground based or airborne generators, were associated with an apparent net hail suppression effect, extending over the entire state. The rainfall data do not display such a trend.

Published: January 2023

A long series of ground-based salt seeding experiments in north India during the southwest monsoonseasons (June-September) of 1957-66 showed significant increases of about 20 percent in rainfall on seeded days (Ramana Murty and Biswas, 1968). In September of 1974, salt seeding from aircraft on isolated maritime warm cumulus clouds within 50 km off the coast at Bombay(18 15’N, 72v 49’D, II m ASL) was followed by increases in radar echo area coverage in the vertical and in echo intensity (Chatterjee et al., 1978). seek similar results in a different area, a randomized salt-seeding experiment, using a single ground-based generator, was conducted in 1973 and 1975-77 just west of Madras, on the Bengal coast 1,000 km southeast of Bombay. There in the state of Tamil Nadu, South India, the main rainy season is during the northeast monsoon(Oct-Dec), whereas in most parts of India, about 75 percent of the annual rainfall is received during the southwest monsoon(Ananthakrishnan, 1977).
Seeding Agent Threshold Activation Temperature Height, an Important Seedability Criterion for Ground-Based Seeding
Authors: Shaffer R.
Published: January 2023

Reanalysis of the Colorado River Basin Pilot Proiect data set indicates the -5 °C height, chosen to represent the height of the threshold activation temperature of AgI nuclei, to be a significant criterion for anticipating seeding effects from ground-based seeding systems. In association with criteria of cloud top temperature and wind speed for analyzing the stable or neutral stages of winter orographic storm systems, it separates the sample into cases with and without apparent seeding effect.
Supercooled Liquid Water Concentrations in Winter Orographic Clouds from Ground-base Ice Accretion Measurements
Authors: Henderson Thomas J. , Solak Mark E.
Published: January 2023

An icing rate detector originally designed for aircraft is used to measure supercooled liquid water in winter orographic clouds at a fixed mountain-top site in the central Sierra Nevada of California. Supercooled liquid water concentrations have been determined using continuous records of rime ice accretion and windspeed. It is shown that supercooled liquid water is occurring within larger portions of storms than prior airborne observations over the operational area have indicated, particularly during pre-frontal periods. In many instances, supercooled liquid water occurs below safe aircraft operational altitudes over the mountainous project area. The ground-based measurementsystem provides an effective tool for semi-quan- titative determination of supercooled liquid water within specific cloud volumes heretofore unmeasured.
Unexpected Effects of Cloud Seeding with Silver Iodide
Authors: Bigg E. K.
Published: January 2023

Recent analysis of measurements of precipitation and ice nucleus concentrations made during several cloud-seeding experiments in Australia show apparent effects of cloud seeding with silver iodide that last not only for many days but even for many months. If these effects are real, the sensitivity of conventional analyses of cloud-seeding experiments using target/control or seeded/unseeded comparisons will beconsiderably or even totally degraded. Consequently, cloud seeding may have been far more effective over a far wider area than has usually been considered possible. Some hypotheses of how such long-persisting effects could occur are discussed which suggest that a physical basis is at least possible.
Secondary Seeding as a Means of Propagating Seeding Effects in Space and Time
Authors: Woodley William L , Rosenfeld Daniel
Published: January 2023

Secondary seeding, whereby unseeded clouds ingest ice particles from clouds that earlier had received direct glaciogenic (e.g., silver iodide) treatment, is hypothesized to be a possible additional mechanism for the propagation of seeding effects in space and for time. The ingested ice particles, after experiencing some growth in the donor cloud, act to glaciate the receptor cloud during its active growth phase and provide it precipitation embryos. These embryos give the new cloud a head-start on precipitation development as they grow further as graupel to precipitation size in the updraft laden with high quantities of supercooled cloud water. This enhancement of precipitation-forming processes is postulated to be strongest in microphysically continental clouds in which natural and seeding-induced primary glaciation and hydrometeor growth are slow. A case study is presented to illustrate these processes.
Economic Feasibility Assessment of Winter Cloud Seeding in the Boise River Drainage, Idaho
Authors: Griffith Don A , Solak Mark E
Published: January 2023

The Boise River Drainage, located in Central Idaho, is productive in terms of annual streamflow, a large majority of which is derived from accumulated winter snow pack. There are three dams in the upper river: Anderson Ranch, Arrowrock and Lucky Peak. Capacities of the three reservoirs are: 413,000, 272,000 and 306,000 acre feet, respectively. Both Anderson Ranch and Lucky Peak have hydroelectric production capabilities. Lucky Peak is located below the first two dams. North American Weather Consultants, Inc. conducted winter cloud seeding programs over the Boise River Drainage above Lucky Peak Reservoir during the water years of 1993-1996. A target/control analysis of these four seasons of seeding indicated an average increase in target area April 1st snow water content of 12% (an average additional 2.50" of snow water content per season). Additional analyses were performed to estimate the potential economic benefit that might be derived from the seeding program based upon the value of the estimated increased hydro-power production from Lucky Peak Dam. Lucky Peak has an installed turbine capacity of 100 MW. It was estimated that a 12% increase in April 1st snow water content would result in an average 16,409 MWh of additional electricity production per year. This amount of additional electricity was estimated to have a value of $820,182. The average annual cost of the cloud seeding program during the four seasons of operations was $85,000. These values result in an average estimated benefit/cost ratio of 9.7/1. This analysis does not consider the value of the additional electricity produced from the Anderson Ranch Dam, which is a Bureau of Reclamation facility, or the value of the enhanced streamflow to irrigation interests downstream of the Lucky Peak Dam.

Twenty Seasons of Airborne Hail Suppression In Alberta, Canada
Authors: Gilbert Daniel B. , Boe Bruce A. , Krauss Terrence W.
Published: January 2023

After a catastrophic late-season hailstorm hit the Calgary, Alberta, metropolitan area in September 1991, causing about half a billion dollars (Canadian) in damage, the property and casualty insurance industry began actively seeking ways to actively mitigate hail damage.  After nearly four years of intensive study and intra-industry negotiation, the Alberta Severe Weather Management Society (ASWMS) was born.  The ASWMS was and is comprised of representatives of all the insurance companies making up  >90%   market share in southern Alberta, and through levies based on their market share, annually fund an airborne cloud seeding program having the exclusive purpose of reducing damaging hailfalls in metropolitan areas, the Alberta Hail Suppression Project (AHSP).  Beginning in 1996, this program has become an annual endeavor conducted from June through mid-September.  This paper summarizes the current structure and operations of the AHSP, and through radar data compares seeded and unseeded storms that occurred on 21 July 2015, one of the most active days of the 2015 storm season.

Indications of Downwind Cloud Seeding Effects in Utah
Authors: Yorty David
Published: January 2023

Estimation of effects on precipitation downwind (or “extra-area effects”) of a long-standing winter operational snowpack augmentation project in central and southern Utah mountainous areas was originally conducted in a 2003 study.  The study utilized a target/control linear regression technique, which has been used to estimate the seasonal effects of cloud seeding within the program’s intended target area. The results of the original study have been updated through the 2018 water year.   Seeded target area analyses of December-March high elevation (NRCS SNOTEL) precipitation data for this program indicate an overall season-average increase of about 12% for 41 seeded seasons.  Estimations of downwind seeding effects were made for individual stations and various distance bands downwind as far as 100+ miles.  The analyses suggest increases of similar percentages to those for the target, expressed as ratio values to the natural precipitation amounts, extending as far as 100 miles downwind (approximately the Utah/Colorado border area).  At approximately 100 miles downwind, the area-averaged ratio values (observed divided by predicted values) approach 1.0, suggesting a lack of any significant seeding effect at these distances.  Expressed as average-depth precipitation amounts, the target area precipitation increase from seeding is likely about 1.3” of additional water, with much lesser total precipitation increases in the much drier downwind area within 100 miles, trending to 0 beyond this distance.  Although variability of the individual downwind station results remains high, the updated results are in good overall agreement with those of the original (2003) study.

Published: January 2023

Se proporciona y comenta la información disponible relativa a las distintas investigaciones arqueológicas relacionadas con la ocupación Tawantinsuyu realizadas al interior y exterior de la Catedral Metropolitana. Se profundiza en los resultados obtenidos en las excavaciones de la Cripta de los Obispos (2005) y Patio Los Naranjos (2015) con especial referencia a los restos arquitectónicos y alfareros. El análisis de los diseños cerámicos indica un elevado porcentaje de motivos de origen cuzqueño, seguido por un menor porcentaje de diseños de origen Diaguita, estando completamente ausentes los diseños de origen local. Se postula que las estructuras más profundas corresponden a restos arquitectónicos de la ocupación Tawantinsuyu, conformando el denominado sustrato incaico de la Catedral Metropolitana. Las evidencias encontradas apoyan la hipótesis de que el lugar tuvo una alta significación religiosa y política Inca, previa a la ocupación europea.

An Investigation of Reading Anxiety among Vietnamese English Major Students
Authors: Nguyen Le Bao Ngoc , Nguyen Hoang Phuong Mai , Tran Thuy Hang
Published: January 2023

Understanding EFL students' anxiety when performing a reading task has gained much attention in recent research. In Vietnam, not much research focuses on the anxiety level of English-major students. This study aims at measuring linguistics students' reading anxiety levels using the English as a Foreign Language Reading Anxiety Inventory (EFLRAI) (Zoghi & Alivandivafa, 2014). A total of 72 linguistics students from two Reading classes at the International University, VNU-HCMC, took part in this study. A follow-up interview was carried out with the students to further investigate the factors, including top-down reading anxiety, bottom-up reading anxiety, and classroom reading anxiety. Quantitatively, the findings revealed that the majority of students experienced low to moderate levels of reading anxiety. Most students reported that their reading background knowledge and reading ability, namely the top-down factors, accounted the most for their negative emotions while performing the task. Importantly, some solutions related to teaching strategies were recommended by students for a better learning environment.
Conceptual Metaphor “WOMEN ARE ANIMALS” In 20th-century Vietnamese Literature
Authors: Pham Thuy Giang
Published: January 2023

From the perspective of Cognitive Linguistics, the paper analyzes the conceptual metaphor WOMEN ARE ANIMALS in 20th-century Vietnamese literary works. The theoretical framework for this study includes the Conceptual Metaphor Theory of Lakoff and Johnson (1980), the Great Chain of Being model of Lakoff and Turner (1989), and the Metaphor Identification Procedure of Pragglejaz Group (2007). Through a survey of 50 short stories and novels written by famous Vietnamese authors, 6 low-level metaphors as well as the mapping mechanism from the source domain to the target domain, is discovered and explained. The findings reveal that women are mainly portrayed as wild animals, livestock, pets, or birds. Metaphorical linguistic expressions, then, convey a biased view towards the low and inferior role and position of women in the family and society. Negative ideological values in the representation of women are explored to show that women are considered to be small, weak, dependent on men, and serve as their recreation. Vietnamese people's thinking and cultural characteristics are also reflected in this metaphor.
CULTURAL FACETS OF COCKFIGHTING
Authors: S. Reyes Ramon
Published: January 2023

Cultural Education, as it discovers the different manifestations of culture, has its ultimate goal of providing an insight on the cycle, or for some, whirlwind that engulfs the society. With a geographical landscape as unique as the Philippines, the diversity of cultural heritage that is definitive of its national cultural identity is a fortress. This study is an in-depth investigatory paper on the cultural facets of the age-old gaming of the Filipino alpha: “sabong” or cockfighting. Through generations, the Filipino men have been patronizing, if not, addicted to this game. But for it to sustain through hundreds of years, one must ask; is it a mere game or gambling, or is it a culture shaped by whose lives were affected during its continuance?
TEACHER'S EFFORTS IN FORMING RELIGIOUS CHARACTER IN NEUROSCIENCE-BASED PAI (ISLAMIC EDUCATION) LEARNING
Authors: Haikal Huda Fadkhulil Imad , Widodo Hendro
Published: January 2023

Character is necessary for humans. Therefore as an effort to shape a teacher's character as a character builder, it is an obligation not only at school but to be able to choose a good environment for students, especially in learning Islamic Religious Education. In the process, teachers need to use a neuroscience-based character education approach. By knowing the realm of assessment, and educational goals based on neuroscience rules, character education will be measurable and directed and can focus on students' deficiencies to be given treatment so that deficiencies can be covered in themselves. The literature was chosen as a research method with a qualitative approach. Based on the results of the study, it was found that quality education is education that can shape the character of its students. Character education is more effective if it uses a neuroscience approach, so students can instill religious character education starting with changing how their brains work.

Yapısal Gelişim Teorisi ise hayati öneme sahip olan akış sistemlerinin fiziksel arka planını ortaya koymaktadır. Bu makalede özellikle mühendislik çözümlerinin başında gelen akış sistemlerinin yapısı (gemilerde kurulu ana makine gücü ve ısı transferi örnekleri özelinde) ve Yapısal Gelişim Teorisi’ne göre ilişkisi araştırılmıştır. Bunun için 1085 adet petrol tankeri için DWT ile bu tankerler için gerekli olan güç ilişkisi nonlineer regresyon ile analiz edilmiştir. Sonuç olarak gemilerdeki genel gelişimin ve ısı transferinin yapısal gelişim prensiplerine uygun şekilde gerçekleştiği gösterilmiştir.

In this study researcher used a framework for evaluating this phenomenon which combines the four dimensions of Protest and Social Change, Community Life, Representative Democracy and Democratic Values. The framework which researcher uses also used in The European Social Survey 2002 to populate the framework as this survey provided the best data coverage available and covered 19 European Countries. In this research total 61 indicators were selected. A composite indicator, The Active Citizenship Composite Indicator (ACCI), The limitations to the ACCI are explained in terms of the limitation of the data availability in particular concerning the new forms of participation and less organized forms of participation. For measuring the active citizenship in young generation 100 questionnaires were prepared for university students (bachelors level student and for master level). Survey results are given in the body below under the heading of results. Most of the results are as expected and matching with many international surveys conducted outside Pakistan but few results are really very unexpected and shocking. The results of Active Citizenship Composite Indicator exhibit interesting and quite distinct regional patterns. The results showed that the mostly students cannot be considered as active citizen at social level but in political, democratic and religious indicators students have shown highest rate of Active Citizenship, followed by human right and social violently work indicator.

Marital rape is simply the sexual act without the implied or expressed consent of spouse. This paper addresses the element of marital rape in two local communities - Lyari and Clifton, in the city of Karachi, Pakistan. The topic is not new but the acceptability is; mostly people avoid discussing such taboos in the public, for them rape doesn’t exist in the marital life. To find out the true picture, we have conducted a qualitative survey the methodology that we are following is qualitative survey of general public married spouses from two areas and the public servants those deal with this phenomenon in their capacities including the lawyers, religious scholars, and non-profit organizers. Our sample size is 200 concerned individuals and is equally divided in two areas. We opted a random sampling method based on qualitative research to reach the target audience in both the localities with an assumption to find the real deal. Our research is based on the volunteering response of the people regarding the concerned query, not to trigger or force people to share their respective experience/s. Instruments of research are questioners filled in by spouses from both areas. Hypothesis were tested using the method of  Z-Testing. The study will help us to clarify the public perception about unconsented sexual intercourse or spousal sexual harassment or marital rape.

The objective of this study is to explore the impact on the attitudes and language of children after watching cartoon programs. It is considered that cartoons are the safest and most popular entertainment for children. Plenty of TV channels non-stop broadcast different cartoons for children. Kids spend far more time watching cartoons on electronic gadgets than on any other task. It not only attracts the children through its contents but also inculcates some positive and negative habits in them. Violence is a vital part of most cartoon programs, which affects badly children’s attitudes and language because they are not able to distinguish between good or bad and reality or fantasy aspects of cartoon content. Children watch cartoon characters and they try to imitate and use aggressive attitudes at home and school. Children are induced and attracted by violent content by broadcasters and children act accordingly. The researcher adopted a survey research design to explore deeply the cause-and-effect relationship among the variables. The targeted population of this study was the parents of these cartoon-watching children who use to watch long hours daily in Karachi. 100 children’s mothers were randomly selected from ten private schools at the Pre-Primary level of Central District, Karachi. Five-point Likert scale questionnaire was used to collect the data. Findings show the impacts of violence presented in cartoons on children’s behavior. They not only imitate their favorite cartoon characters, and use aggressive attitudes at home and school.

Water is maintained in tall tanks as part of the public water system. Because of a shortage of water or difficulties putting out a fire after an earthquake, the collapse of these water tanks could pose major risks to people. According to draught code Part II of IS 1893:2002, twelve raised circular and H-intake storage tanks with a combined capacity of two lakh litres each would be studied in this study. STAAD Pro V8i is used to conduct a response spectrum analysis of elevated circular and H-shaped water intake tanks in seismic zones II and V. A comparison was made between each collected value for the base shear axial force and lateral displacements. There is a divergence in the H-tank and a negligible variance, according to analysis of a comparison of two water tanks.
