Seasonal and interannual variability of landfast sea ice in Atka Bay, Weddell Sea, Antarctica
Authors: Arndt Stefanie , Hoppmann Mario , Schmithüsen Holger , Fraser Alexander D. , Nicolaus Marcel
Published: August 2020

Abstract. Landfast sea ice (fast ice) attached to Antarctic
(near-)coastal elements is a critical component of the local physical and
ecological systems. Through its direct coupling with the atmosphere and
ocean, fast-ice properties are also a potential indicator of processes
related to a changing climate. However, in situ fast-ice observations in
Antarctica are extremely sparse because of logistical challenges and harsh
environmental conditions. Since 2010, a monitoring program observing the
seasonal evolution of fast ice in Atka Bay has been conducted as part of the
Antarctic Fast Ice Network (AFIN). The bay is located on the northeastern
edge of Ekström Ice Shelf in the eastern Weddell Sea, close to the
German wintering station Neumayer III. A number of sampling sites have been
regularly revisited each year between annual ice formation and breakup to
obtain a continuous record of sea-ice and sub-ice platelet-layer thickness,
as well as snow depth and freeboard across the bay. Here, we present the time series of these measurements over the last 9
years. Combining them with observations from the nearby Neumayer III
meteorological observatory as well as auxiliary satellite images enables us
to relate the seasonal and interannual fast-ice cycle to the factors that
influence their evolution. On average, the annual consolidated fast-ice thickness at the end of the
growth season is about 2 m, with a loose platelet layer of 4 m
thickness beneath and 0.70 m thick snow on top. Results highlight the
predominately seasonal character of the fast-ice regime in Atka Bay without
a significant interannual trend in any of the observed variables over the
9-year observation period. Also, no changes are evident when comparing
with sporadic measurements in the 1980s and 1990s. It is shown that strong
easterly winds in the area govern the year-round snow distribution and also
trigger the breakup of fast ice in the bay during summer months. Due to the substantial snow accumulation on the fast ice, a characteristic
feature is frequent negative freeboard, associated flooding of the snow–ice
interface, and a likely subsequent snow ice formation. The buoyant platelet
layer beneath negates the snow weight to some extent, but snow
thermodynamics is identified as the main driver of the energy and mass
budgets for the fast-ice cover in Atka Bay. The new knowledge of the seasonal and interannual variability of fast-ice
properties from the present study helps to improve our understanding of
interactions between atmosphere, fast ice, ocean, and ice shelves in one of
the key regions of Antarctica and calls for intensified multidisciplinary
studies in this region.
Clinical Course of a Covid-19 Patient with Gastrointestinal Symptoms- A Case Report
Authors: Sidra Agarwal  , Hemanshi Mistry
Published: August 2020

Background: COVID-19 most commonly presents with respiratory symptoms. However, it can involve the gastrointestinal tract causing symptoms like diarrhea and the resultant shedding of the severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) in feces. This is due to the virus adhering to angiotensin-converting enzyme 2 receptors largely present in the gastrointestinal tract. This case report recommends routine stool Real-Time Reverse Polymerase Chain Reaction (rRT-PCR) testing for patients presenting with gastrointestinal symptoms.

The Case: A healthy 36-year-old male healthcare worker in New York who tested positive for SARS-CoV-2 infection through rRT-PCR of the nasopharyngeal swab. After 7 days of convalescence, he recovered from influenza like symptoms after which he predominantly developed diarrhea, nausea, vomiting and extreme fatigue. Cough was the only lower respiratory symptom during the 3rd week of the clinical course. Anosmia or ageusia preceding the onset of respiratory symptoms was also reported. Due to the outbreak of the pandemic and New York being the epicenter at the time, the patient was recommended to self-isolate with supportive management through antipyretics and electrolyte replacement.

Conclusion: This case highlights a SARS-CoV-2 PCR positive patient with predominant gastrointestinal symptoms. The reports regarding virus shedding in feces suggest that SARS-CoV-2 could be transmitted via fecal-oral route and thus routine stool rRT-PCR testing can aid in transmission-based precautions. Furthermore, reports of viral ribonucleic acid present in the stool, suggests direct infectivity of the virus on the intestinal tract. Therefore, screening in patients with only gastrointestinal symptoms can potentially help to contain the virus spread.
Policing Tourism: Findings From an Evaluation of a Tourism-oriented Policing Training Program in the Caribbean
Authors: Wallace Wendell Codrington
Published: August 2020

This article evaluates a tourism-oriented policing (TOP) training program that was conducted with police officers in the Caribbean island of Tobago. It focuses on TOP and its increasing role in contemporary police practices, especially at destinations that depend on tourism for survival. The article explores previous tourism policing approaches, the need for tourist safety and the necessity for police departments to contemporise their policing by moving away from former paradigms of police officers as generalists. The study utilises a quantitative case study approach in surveying the TOP training program, with data analysed from pre- and post-test questionnaires of 25 participants. Descriptive results indicate general satisfaction with the training, a belief that tourism security is beneficial to the tourism industry in Tobago and that senior police officers should all receive TOP training.
Gendered and Racialised Border Security: Displaced People and the Politics of Fear
Authors: Korac Maja
Published: August 2020

This article examines the dynamics of constructing current migration from the so-called Global South in ‘risk’, ‘crisis’ and ‘fear’ terms that translate into xenophobic, racialised and gendered processes of ‘othering’ people who are displaced. This is done within the framework of a ‘coloniality of power’ (Quijano 2000b) perspective, understood as the ‘colonial power matrix’ (Grosfoguel 2011). This is how the location from which the current racialised and gendered politics of fear is being constructed. The notion of racialised security leads to racialised masculinity of the ‘Other’, while stigmatising migrant men. These colonial narratives that have created ‘knowledge’ about other masculinities have been invoked and re-articulated within the current racialised processes of securitisation of migration. They have supported construction of the sexual assault of ‘our’ women as the public security concern. Consequently, racially marked rape becomes an important part of State security, linked to national territory and border control.
Global Stability of a Predator-Prey Model with Ivlev-Type Functional Response
Authors: Wu Yinshu , Huang Wenzhang
Published: August 2020

A predator-prey model with Ivlev-Type functional response is studied. The main purpose is to investigate the global stability of a positive (co-existence) equilibrium, whenever it exists. A recently developed approach shows that for certain classes of models, there is an implicitly defined function which plays an important rule in determining the global stability of the positive equilibrium. By performing a detailed analytic analysis we demonstrate that a crucial property of this implicitly defined function is governed by the local stability of the positive equilibrium, which enable us to show that the global and local stability of the positive equilibrium, whenever it exists, is equivalent. We believe that our approach can be extended to study the global stability of the positive equilibrium for predator-prey models with some other types of functional responses.
A LUTA POR SORORIDADE
Authors: Wolff Tayná Campos
Published: August 2020

O artigo faz reflexões acerca de estímulos patriarcais à competição entre mulheres e o esforço feminista para combater essa competitividade com seu oposto – a mútua e profunda união feminina, o que chamamos de sororidade. Além disso, são analisados aspectos da chamada “masculinidade tóxica” e de premissas que visam a subalternização da mulher. Uma ação no âmbito das Artes da Cena, promovida pelo grupo de palhaçaria feminina do Distrito Federal Cabaré das Rachas, teve uma clara prerrogativa de engrandecer a união entre mulheres artistas da cena e de contestar a cultura machista satirizando-a e ironizando padrões que precisam ser destruídos. Pensar a arte como instrumento de militância e meio para abordar pautas relevantes como a opressão de gênero é o que impulsiona o texto.

Published: August 2020

The Occupational Safety and Health Act No. 15 of 2007 and reread in 2010, offers for the safety health and benefit of personnel and all individuals lawfully current at places of employment in Kenya. Despite this workers have continued to face occupational health and safety challenges which expose them to a wide range of accidents which eventually pull down their performance. According to ILO statistics on safety and health at work of 28th April 2016, 6300 individuals succumb daily due to occupational accidents or employment associated ailments and deaths exceeding 2.3 million yearly. The study was purposed to investigate the effect of occupational health and safety (OHS) on employee performance in Sugar Industries in Western Kenya. The explicit objective was to determine the effects of occupational environment on employee performance in sugar industries in Western Kenya. The target population comprised 8801 staff in all the sugar firms in Western Kenya. Stratified random sampling technique was used to select a sample of 383. Primary data was gathered by use of questions which were validated through a pilot study of 10 staff prior to the main research. Cronbach alpha coefficient with a threshold of 0.70 was used to test the reliability of the research instrument. The study findings revealed that: occupational environment contributed to employee performance β=0.585. The R2 change after incorporating Top Management Support was 0.290, P=0.000 implying that TMS statistically moderates the relationship between occupational health and safety and employee performance. Study concluded that: Occupational environment has a significant effect on employee performance while TMS has a significant moderator and influences the relationship between OHS and employee performance.

The EU have set standards in relation to cultural competence, and findings from previously funded EU commission projects have illuminated an extensively developed body of knowledge in this area in relation to healthcare. Evidence from contemporary literature shows that education interventions have a positive impact on the cultural competence of health care professionals. Nonetheless, short accessible resources that can be used flexibly to support teaching and learning around cultural competence are not available across many European countries. The aim of the TransCoCon (2017-2020) project has been to develop innovative accessible multi-media learning resources to enable undergraduate nursing students and registered nurses in five countries to develop their cultural self-efficacy and cultural competence for nursing. The purpose of this paper is to describe and discuss this European ERASMUS + funded strategic partnership project (TransCoCon 2017-2020) and the creation of its underpinning theoretical and organising framework. The rationale for this guiding framework will be discussed within the context of supporting literature.
The Roles of Women in Food Security in South Merapi Slope Villages
Authors: Hastuti Hastuti , Widodo Edi
Published: August 2020

Economic conditions and poverty in rural areas have become problems in meeting the needs of food as the most basic needs/need. This problem can lead to food insecurity. This research aims to: (1) examine the characteristics of women; (2) study the obstacles faced by women in achieving food security; and (3) investigate women's efforts to achieve food security. The data were analyzed using quantitative descriptive technique by means of frequency tables. The livelihood diversification in Jetis Suruh was more visible than that in Bulus Lor. The fulfillment of individual food needs was related to economic, social, and cultural conditions. The year-round food needs of both villages indicated the need for food throughout the year. The need for food throughout the year in Bulus Lor was relatively better than that in Jetis Suruh. In general, food security in Bulus Lor was better than that in Jetis Suruh. Food security included the quantity and quality of food that met the standard of living of all family members. The availability of food in every household experienced dynamics at a certain time. When confronted with the limited food availability challenge, food for fathers was prioritized and this was dominant in both villages. Strategies to expand the diversification of businesses undertaken to increase household incomes included mobilizing all household members to go to work, borrowing money to make ends meet, saving money, reducing food, reducing the quality of food consumption, migrating jobs, and asking for help from family through friendship.

The variations in time and quality are vital to the projects' success. Though the cost variation is the most impacting variation, the objective of this study is to recognise the significance of the cost controls in the construction projects in Jordan. Moreover, it aims to determine the factors that lead to reduce these costs. For the methodology, the study used the questionnaire instrument for the data collection. The study sample entailed 154 respondents who hold the responsibility in relevance positions with experiences in contracting and consultants engineering field in Jordan under first and second-grade classification. The study results revealed that there is a significant relationship between cost reduction and all investigated factors, namely, the demographic variables, the pre-execution conditions and specification, and managerial, technical, or financial dimensions. Further, the results showed a significant impact of proper resource planning. In summary, the key factors affecting the project cost during the pre-execution stage involves the appropriate resources planning (i.e., workforce, funds, data). In details, the most critical factors affecting the project cost from managerial dimension are the project manager assignment and integrity of consultant. For the technical dimension, the elements are the skilled workers, the applied methods, the statements and specifications. Lastly, for the fund allocation dimension, the most critical factors that affect the project cost from a financial point of view. Lastly, a set of recommendations are proposed to the project managers to reduce the cost.

Published: August 2020

Merauke Regency has 216.196 Ha of mangroves area which most of it was fed by the Maro River. The purpose of this research was to study the chemical, nutrient movement, and physiochemical properties by collecting the soil around the Maro River. 10 collected soil samples (0-20 cm depth) were analyzed using standard methods. The result showed that the average CEC of soils around River Maro is 15.95 cmol/kg. Organic matter and soil moisture content could be the contributor to enhance the CEC of soil. The average organic carbon was 1.34%, while the BOD and COD were 2.44 and 5.70 mg/L. Soil could have different mineralogical content which nutrient around Maro is decreasing due to waste disposal to the river, agricultural practice, and other human activities. Environmental management needs to reevaluate and studies about soil mineralogy strongly recommended.
The sharing economy dilemma: the response of incumbent firms to the rise of the sharing economy
Authors: Godelnik Raz
Published: August 2020

Objective of the Study: This paper explores whether and to what degree incumbent firms innovate in response to competition from the sharing economy.Methodology/Approach: Data on incumbents’ actions related to the sharing economy between 2011 and 2015 was collected from multiple resources. Two conceptual frameworks, the OECD Oslo Manual and Pisano’s Innovation Landscape Map, were jointly used to determine whether incumbents’ actions could be considered as innovation and their level of innovativeness.Originality/Relevance: As the sharing economy has grown rapidly in the last decade, offering new ways to create value, so has the discourse about its disruptive capacity. Yet, not enough is known about the sharing economy’s impact on incumbent firms beyond the disruptive capacity narrative.Main Results: The study identified 187 actions related to the sharing economy that were taken by 134 incumbent firms between 2011 and 2015. Less than half of these actions are considered innovative, and the majority among them are at the lowest end of the innovation continuum.Theoretical/Methodological Contribution: This study contributes to the literature on the sharing economy by developing a synthesized innovation-based framework to evaluate incumbent firms’ response to sharing economy entrants.Social/management contributions: The results of this study and the methodology it uses provide benchmarking opportunities for incumbents in similar circumstances, and also puts into question the disruptive narrative around the sharing economy.

Objective of the study: The agility causes structural changes in companies, such as: in the organizational culture, in the way people think, in the processes, roles, responsibilities and behaviors. For this process, we call it agile transformation, which has become the target of more and more companies in the last 20 years with the promise of achieving many benefits.Originality/Relevance: The speed with which things change requires companies to change their course quickly. Therefore, being agile has become a crucial condition for the survival of companies today.Social/management contributions: Some difficulties experienced during the agile transformation, make the companies not reach the full agility, getting lost in the middle of the way, reaching an ambiguous form of the agile. They do not return to their previous management model, but neither do they become 100% agile. We call this phenomenon Fake Agile and this is the topic we will talk about in this perspective.

Published: August 2020

Abstract: Determination of the compressive strength parallel to the grain of resinous yellow pine heartwood. The compressive strength parallel to the grain of resinous yellow pine heartwood was determined as a part of this study. The interdependencies between the load and deflection of yellow pine under compression test were established. The average density of resinous yellow pine wood in an air-dry condition was 855 ± 10 kg/m3 and it was 30% greater than the density of non-resinous yellow pine wood. Despite a considerable increase in density, which was due to the saturation of wood with resin, a 4% decrease in the compressive strength parallel to the grain of yellow pine heartwood was recorded and the differences were statistically significant. The load-deflection curves of yellow pine wood showed a similar direction of changes for resinous and non-resinous heartwood. Nevertheless, significant differences in the deflection values between resinous and non-resinous yellow pine heartwood were demonstrated, depending on the load.
POLICE DUTIES IN PROCEEDINGS CONCERNING
FAMILY MATTERS OF MINORS UNDER SELECTED
EU AND INTERNATIONAL LAW (WITH PARTICULAR
REFERENCE TO CASES OF CHILD ABDUCTION)
Authors: Franusz Anna
Published: August 2020

The interests of children are of paramount importance, therefore
it is sometimes necessary for the authorities to interfere in matters relating
to their custody, when a child is likely to have been wrongfully removed or
retained in breach of the rights of custody attributed to a person, an institution or any other body (child abduction). Therefore a number of international
and European Union legal acts impose on national legislators the obligation
to introduce mechanisms involving central authorities into cooperation with
each other and promoting cooperation amongst the competent authorities
in their respective states to make proper discoveries to secure the prompt
return of children. For this purpose, the Law of 26 January 2018 on the
exercise of certain acts of the central authority in family matters relating to
legal transactions under European Union law and international agreements
was adopted. Pursuant to its provisions, Police offi cers shall, by virtue of
their specifi c powers, assist the central authority and the courts on matters
relating to the abduction of minors abroad. Their role is mainly linked to
providing the authorities with relevant information, assisting the probation
offi cer, and searching the place where the minor is presumed to be living.

Published: August 2020

Swelling and water resistance of black poplar wood (Populus nigra L.) modified by polymerisation in lumen with styrene. Polymerisation in lumen of black poplar (Populus nigra L.) was performed to improve wood properties related to interaction with water. Wood samples were modified with styrene or a mixture of styrene and maleic anhydride, using benzoyl peroxide as initiator. Polymerisation was conducted in closed vessels at a temperature up to 120 °C. Volume swelling and water absorbability of modified wood samples were measured. A significant decrease in the rate of water absorption was found, especially at the initial stage of soaking, resulting in 50 % decrease in volume swelling and 85 % decrease in water absorption.

Being theoretical and empirical in nature, the study presents, considering the assumptions of the Stereotype Content Model, a combina-tion of factors and effects of systemic stereotyping of the police force and its offi cers. On the basis of the author’s empirical research, the relationships between the effects of the process of stereotyping of the police have been determined, recognised as the level of development of moral bonds between police offi cers, and the level of moral development of police organisational units within the system of local and provincial structures. Considering the research fi ndings, the study also provides a number of conclusions for mana-gerial practice that should be aimed at the development of the identifi ed variables, which signifi cantly affect police effectiveness in the area of public safety.
A DECISION ON PERMANENT INABILITY FOR SERVICE AS A BASIS FOR OBLIGATORY DISCHARGE FROM SERVICE IN THE POLICE

Published: August 2020

This article is entirely devoted to the issue of discharge from ser-vice in the Police under Article 41(1)(1) of the Police Act. Exemption on this legal basis requires that a medical committee must issue a medical certifi cate to the police offi cer, which states that he/she is totally incapable of serving in the Police. This must be a fi nal decision. Issuing a fi nal ruling requires the superior in charge of personal matters to discharge the police offi cer from offi cial duties in the Police, before he/she is dismissed from service. During the period of dismissal from offi cial duties, the police offi cer retains the right to full salary despite not performing service duties.

A sociedade da informação mudou a forma como se operam as contratações eletrônicas, a ponto de não se questionar mais a imprescindibilidade da Internet e das novas tecnologias para a sequência da evolução das relações sociais. Nesse contexto, normativas de resguardo das contratações assimétricas, como o Código de Defesa do Consumidor, instigam reflexões quanto à necessidade de revisões, notadamente pelo descompasso entre os avanços tecnológicos e o labor legislativo, o que constitui o problema enfrentado nesta pesquisa, cujo presente artigo presta-se a analisar a necessidade ou não de se estabelecerem diretrizes mais sólidas que as existentes, para a implementação e consecução das políticas de proteção capazes de prover o equilíbrio entre consumidor e fornecedor. A pesquisa utilizará o método dedutivo, partindo-se de generalidades acerca do comércio eletrônico e se chegando à especificidade da proteção do consumidor diante de tal figura para, ao fim, se demonstrar a complexidade crescente da proteção do consumidor frente às práticas publicitárias abusivas do comércio eletrônico, e a importância da criação de leis específicas para o assunto sem se desconsiderar a suficiência e força do Código Consumerista.
O DIREITO DE AUTOR NO BRASIL DE OBRAS PRODUZIDAS PELA INTELIGÊNCIA ARTIFICIAL
Authors: Boff Salete Oro , Abido Leonardo
Published: August 2020

O avanço tecnológico, especialmente da tecnologia de informação e comunicação, gera novas possibilidades, as quais representam desafios para o Direito. No caso dos direitos autorais sobre as obras resultantes da inteligência artificial, há indagações sobre a quem atribuir a autoria e consequentemente os direitos sobre a mesma, uma vez que as obras protegidas pelo direito autoral são criações humanas.

Nesse desiderato a presente pesquisa objetiva analisar, por meio do método de pesquisa dedutivo, quem seria o autor em obras produzidas por sistemas de inteligência artificial. Mesmo sem chegar a conclusões definitivas, deve-se referendar a importância de garantir a proteção jurídica às criações produto da inteligência artificial, mesmo que de forma diversa à prevista aos direitos autorais, tradicionalmente concebida. Poder-se-ia pensar em uma forma sui generis  que garanta o direito patrimonial sobre a obra, de modo a incentivar a continuidade dos avanços tecnológicos na área.
EL PAPEL DEL “FRAGMENTO DE LAS MÁQUINAS” DE KARL MARX, EN EL ESQUEMATISMO DE LA ENCRIPTACIÓN DEL PODER
Authors: Méndez-Hincapié Gabriel
Published: August 2020

En este trabajo intentaré demostrar que el proceso de autonomización de las cosas, anunciado por los teóricos de la inteligencia artificial, se puede comprender a cabalidad desde una teoría del conocimiento (o epistemología) derivada de la teoría del valor, y que podemos denominar, siguiendo el léxico de Karl Marx: teoría del ‘cerebro social’ (das gesellschaftliche Hirn). No obstante, dicho “tesoro” epistemológico, lejos de ser una mera sociología de la tecnología o una teoría crítica de la mente, está sustancialmente orientado hacia la puesta en marcha de la democracia concebida como orden legal de la diferencia, es decir, como un medio para la desencriptación del poder (potestas).
Freiwilligenarbeit als Arbeit begreifen. Vorschläge für eine kritische Perspektive
Authors: Mauritz Carolin
Published: August 2020

Im Feld Freiwilligenarbeit finden derzeit Umbrüche statt, die eng mit der hegemonialen Rolle von Arbeit zum Zwecke der Identitätsausbildung und Vergemeinschaftung zusammenhängen. Sie lassen sich nur schwerlich in den affirmativen Diskurs rund um Förderung, Ausbau und Verstetigung von Ehrenamt und Engagement einordnen. Um diesen Strukturwandel angemessen beschreiben zu können, muss ein Perspektivenwechsel im Nachdenken über Freiwilligenarbeit stattfinden. Dies bringt eine veränderte Konzeption von Freiwilligenarbeit mit sich und setzt einen kritischen Kontrapunkt zum affirmativen öffentlichen Diskurs. Um diesen Perspektivenwechsel einzuleiten, werden Ehrenamt und Engagement - zunächst auf begrifflicher, später auf empirischer Ebene - nach ihren Anknüpfungspunkten und Verbindungen in Bezug auf Arbeit und Freiwilligkeit befragt. Dabei zeigt sich, dass die Konzeption von freiwilliger Arbeit als Arbeit sich sowohl durch die Re-Lektüre der Begriffsgeschichte als auch durch eine arbeitssoziologisch inspirierte Interpretation empirischer Forschung begründen lässt. Freiwilligenarbeit muss - so das Plädoyer - daher stärker als Arbeit begriffen werden, um die Umbrüche, die derzeit im Feld Freiwilligenarbeit geschehen, besser beschreiben zu können.
Die „Vermutung aufklärungsrichigen Verhaltens"
Authors: Briesemeister Nele
Published: August 2020

Gegenstand dieser Arbeit ist das Problem des Kausalnachweises bei Informationspflichtverletzungen. Die bisherige Praxis hat zur Folge, dass gleichartige Informationspflichten beweisrechtlich unterschiedlich behandelt werden, ohne dass ein sachlicher Grund für die Ungleichbehandlung ersichtlich ist. Vorzugswürdig ist es deshalb, sich einer Lösung des Beweisproblems durch die Systematisierung der Informationspflichten nach ihrem Haftungsgrund anzunähern. Danach ist zwischen vorvertraglichen, vertraglichen und deliktischen Informationspflichten zu unterscheiden.

Die Untersuchung dieser Fallgruppen hat ergeben, dass die "Vermutung aufklärungsrichtigen Verhaltens" mit der Folge einer Beweislastumkehr bei den vorvertraglichen Informationspflichten sowie bei den vertraglichen Informationspflichten, die im Rahmen von interessenwahrnehmenden Verträgen zu erbringen sind, anzuwenden ist. Hingegen liegen keine Sachgründe vor, die eine Beweislastumkehr bei im Rahmen von Austauschverträgen zu erbringenden vertraglichen Informationspflichten und bei den deliktischen Informationspflichten rechtfertigen.
Wording Time. On Augustine’s Confessions XI: Transcriptions, Variations, Improvisations
Authors: Desmond William ,   Philosophy Documentation Center
Published: August 2020

Rather than abstracting Augustine’s exploration of time from the whole of the Confessions, as philosophers have been tempted to do, I take up his exploration in terms of what I call a ‘companioning relation’ between philosophy and theology. There is a porosity between religion/theology and philosophy in Augustine that need not be taken as a philosophical or theological deficiency. This reflection speaks of Augustine’s intentions and intuitions in terms of the theme: Wording Time. How might one word this wording, and how might Augustine’s approach to time be thus illuminated? I approach the question in different stages, dealing first with theological, ontological, and psychological considerations. Then I follow the breadth of Augustine’s concerns to a sense of sacred heterogeneities that yet are deeply intimate, and to a sense of time that is in communication with what is above time. In keeping with the musical motif that runs through this reflection, I offer some thoughts on agapē as not only an agapē sonans but an agapē personans. I will sometimes be transcribing Augustine’s themes, sometimes offering variations on them, and sometimes composing improvisations in tune with Augustinian themes.
On six-dimensional AH-submanifolds of class W1⊕W2⊕W4 in Cayley algebra
Authors: Banaru G. A.
Published: August 2020

Six-dimensional submanifolds of Cayley algebra equipped with an almost Hermitian structure of class W1 W2 W4 defined by means of three-fold vector cross products are considered. As it is known, the class W1 W2 W4 contains all Kählerian, nearly Kählerian, almost Kählerian, locally conformal Kählerian, quasi-Kählerian and Vaisman — Gray manifolds. The Cartan structural equations of the W1 W2 W4 -structure on such six-dimensional submanifolds of the octave algebra are obtained. A criterion in terms of the configuration tensor for an arbitrary almost Hermitian structure on a six-dimensional submanifold of Cayley algebra to belong to the W1 W2 W4 -class is established. It is proved that if a six-dimensional W1 W2 W4 -submanifold of Cayley algebra satisfies the quasi-Sasakian hypersurfaces axiom (i.e. a hypersurface with a quasi-Sasakian structure passes through every point of such submanifold), then it is an almost Kählerian manifold. It is also proved that a six-dimensional W1 W2 W4 -submanifold of Cayley algebra satisfies the eta-quasi-umbilical quasi-Sasakian hypersurfaces axiom, then it is a Kählerian manifold.

Curvature-torsion quasitensor of Laptev fundamental-group connection
Authors: Shevchenko Yu. I.
Published: August 2020

We consider a space with Laptev's fundamental group connection generalizing spaces with Cartan connections. Laptev structural equations are reduced to a simpler form. The continuation of the given structural equations made it possible to find differential comparisons for the coeffi­cients in these equations. It is proved that one part of these coefficients forms a tensor, and the other part forms is quasitensor, which justifies the name quasitensor of torsion-curvature for the entire set. From differential congruences for the components of this quasitensor, congruences are ob­tained for the components of the Laptev curvature-torsion tensor, which contains 9 subtensors included in the unreduced structural equations. In two special cases, a space with a fundamental connection is a spa­ce with a Cartan connection, having a quasitensor of torsion-curvature, which contains a quasitensor of torsion. In the reductive case, the space of the Cartan connection is turned into such a principal bundle with connec­tion that has not only a curvature tensor, but also a torsion tensor.
Centered planes in the projective connection space
Authors: Belova O. O.
Published: August 2020

The space of centered planes is considered in the Cartan projec­ti­ve connection space . The space is important because it has con­nec­tion with the Grassmann manifold, which plays an important role in geometry and topology, since it is the basic space of a universal vector bundle. The space is an n-dimensional differentiable manifold with each point of which an n-dimensional projective space containing this point is associated. Thus, the manifold is the base, and the space is the n-dimensional fiber “glued” to the points of the base. A projective space is a quotient space of a linear space with respect to the equivalence (collinearity) of non-zero vectors, that is . The projective space is a manifold of di­men­sion n. In this paper we use the Laptev — Lumiste invariant analytical meth­od of differential geometric studies of the space of centered planes and introduce a fundamental-group connection in the associated bundle . The bundle contains four quotient bundles. It is show that the connection object is a quasi-tensor containing four subquasi-tensors that define connections in the corresponding quotient bundles.

Published: August 2020

The pulp treatment of primary and immature teeth in the children and adolescents is affected by the environment of the patients, clinical careers and dentists performing the techniques, as well as clinical modalities and pulpal diagnosis. The purpose of this study was to investigate the current status of pulp treatment performed in real clinical practice, as well as the reasons behind the choice of treatment methods.The study was conducted on a total of 153 members of the Korean Academy of Pediatric Dentistry, and statistical data from the Health Insurance Review and Assessment Service (HIRA) from 2010 to 2018 were analyzed together. Both the survey results and the statistics from the HIRA showed that 1-visit pulpectomies of primary teeth were most common, and the frequency of the use of the Ni-Ti file was increased in children with primary or mixed-dentition. In the treatment of immature permanent teeth, regenerative endodontic treatment by individual dentists was found to be less frequent than in university hospitals.

Published: August 2020

The purpose of this study was to examine the characteristics of the high caries risk group of 12-year-old children in Korea.Oral health status and interview data were collected from 23,089 children aged 12 years who participated in the 2015 Korean Children’s Oral Health Survey. Subjects were classified into high-risk and low-risk groups according to the Significant caries (SiC) index, and the influence of each variable was analyzed.As a result of the study, the SiC index of the high-risk group was 5.08, which was about 9.6 times higher than the lowrisk group. The risk factors associated with the high-risk group were in the order of the number of sealant teeth, dental treatment demand for the past year, perceived oral health status, gender, region, frequency of snack intake per day, and use of oral hygiene aids.In order to improve the oral health of children, appropriate preventive treatment and oral health education should be carried out with reference to the items indicated as risk factors in the high-risk group of dental caries.
Politiques de logement dans les provinces canadiennes : Forces et faiblesses
Authors: Bendaoud Maroine
Published: August 2020

Depuis les décennies d’après-guerre, les provinces canadiennes interviennent dans le secteur du logement pour soutenir les ménages dans le besoin. Cependant, très peu d’études indépendantes ont tenté de faire une évaluation globale des programmes mis en œuvre depuis. Ce texte offre une telle analyse, en observant les programmes de logement public (HLM), logement communautaire détenu par les groupes du tiers secteur et les programmes axés sur le marché locatif privé (allocation-logement et supplément au loyer). Nous nous attardons essentiellement à l’efficacité des programmes au regard de la satisfaction des besoins de logement des ménages vulnérables.
De la especulación a la cultura de la rehabilitación. La estrategia PAX-Patios de la Axerquía como medida antigentrificación en entornos patrimoniales
Authors: Redaelli Gaia
Published: August 2020

Frente a las dinámicas de fuerte tensión especulativa durante la burbuja inmobiliaria, dirigida fundamentalmente a la ciudad en expansión, es decir, a la ocupación de territorio y espacio público, hoy el ajedrez de los fondos de inversión parece dirigirse cada vez más al interior de la ciudad. Este artículo pretende abrir algunas pautas acerca de la relación actual entre Gentrificación y Derecho a la Ciudad, como deseo de una colectividad hacia el futuro de nuestro entorno urbano. En concreto, se analizarán algunas experiencias acerca de la rehabilitación urbana e innovación social en ciudades mediterráneas y, más en profundidad, la relación entre economía social y rehabilitación urbana de áreas de alto valor patrimonial. Con mayor detalle, se analizará la experiencia de reactivación urbana a través de procesos cooperativos en curso en el caso de PAX-Patios de la Axerquía, una estrategia de rehabilitación y reuso de casas de vecinos en el casco histórico de Córdoba como medida de cohesión social en una zona de alto valor patrimonial —reconocida por la Unesco en su componente material e inmaterial—, en riesgo de gentrificación.
Cities and geodiversity: coexistence of humans and abiotic nature in urban territories
Authors: Fraga de Araújo Pereira Ricardo Galeno , Flores Urushima Andrea , Alexandre Yamashiki Yosuke
Published: August 2020

Urbanization is an irreversible global process. Natural elements and systems present in city territories or at non-city sites attend to the demands for natural assets from urbanization processes. Renewed attention to the impacts of the urban organization of societies is essential to promote the harmonious survival of urbanization with natural processes. Although the presence of humans on the planet represents just a small fraction of the Earth’s history, human agglomeration in cities has caused impacts on a global scale. Cities demand services and products from natural areas that are sometimes located in faraway rural areas, affecting geological environments such as beaches, rivers and aquifers, and other processes such as hydrological cycles or atmospheric circulation. The anthropogenic impact on urban catchment areas may induce unexpected environmental degradation in urban areas that affects the hydrological cycle. Although relative newcomers in terms of the Earth’s lifetime, cities are a privileged human habitat, with intrinsic maintenance mechanisms that form the basis of the modern organization of the world’s societies and economies. The present article adopts a geological perspective and a land ethic paradigm to discuss alternatives for a harmonious existence between cities and abiotic nature.
Los memoriales una práctica conmemorativa
Authors: Recio Saucedo Sergio Raúl
Published: August 2020

El presente artículo tiene como objetivo analizar los diferentes grafitis, esténcils y murales de tipo memorial que se han realizado dentro de los espacios de Ciudad Juárez. Esta idea surgió por creer que la violencia sistemática y de género que se ha desarrollado en la localidad ha generado un tipo de obras procedentes del arte callejero que se centran en rescatar de manera gráfica la memoria de las víctimas. Seck, Mala, Disko, Ciencia y Julián Ríos son algunos de los grafiteros y de los muralistas urbanos que han participado en la elaboración de piezas que buscan recuperar la historia de las personas.
Censura editorial y crítica literaria durante el franquismo. El caso de Antonio Iglesias Laguna
Authors: Álvarez Villalobos María
Published: August 2020

El objetivo principal de este trabajo es analizar la interacción entre los discursos sobre textos narrativos hallados en los informes de censura y los de la crítica literaria en prensa, así como las relaciones entre ambas durante el último periodo del franquismo. Intentaremos establecer la correlación entre dos vías distintas que perseguían fortalecer un discurso literario oficial y subsidiario de intereses políticos. Para ello, se ha tomado el caso de Antonio Iglesias Laguna, crítico literario y censor durante este periodo, prestando especial atención a la etapa posterior a la publicación de la ley de Prensa e Imprenta de 1966. Con este propósito, se han recopilado, analizado y cotejado las críticas literarias en ABC y La Estafeta Literaria entre 1964 y 1972 que se correspondían con textos que aparecían publicados por primera vez en España, sus informes como lector de la censura entre 1967 y 1972 así como de su ensayo Treinta años de novela española (1938-1968) (1969).
