Media: Tauiwi and Māori news: The indigenous view
Authors: Stuart Ian 
Published: February 2020

Aotearoa/New Zealand is divided between the mainstream news media and the fast-gowing Māori media with different perspectives. New Zealand journalism graduates need to be taught different media systems and news values. In the New Zealand news media now and beyond 2000 the biggest growth area is in the Māori media. For many years Māori have been saying the news media ignores their perspective on news and is not reporting Māori events properly. The news media failed to take notice of these claims and in frustration Maori set up their own media. In the last 19 years—but more so in the past five years there has been a huge growth in the Māori news media. There are now nine Iwi newspapers, 26 Iwi radio stations, a Māori radio news network and several Māori magazines, the most prominent being Mana.

Published: February 2020

Recently the Daily Post has been the favourite whipping boy of anyone who has anything to say about anything. We get blasted in Parliament, we get blasted by the Government, we get blasted by the Opposition, we get blasted in the newspaper, we get blasted on television and we get blasted on radio. Yesterday [24 February 1999], on page 6 of the Fiji Times, we received one of the cruellest cuts when a man by the name of Yogesh Prasad said: "One way the Government could have helped the Daily Post is by sending their reporters to schools to learn the basic [sic] of journalism and the editorial staff overseas so that they could learn to put [sic] a paper free of bias, master media ethics and cram proper gramer."

ВОДНЫЙ БАЛАНС И ЭКОЛОГИЧЕСКИЕ УСЛОВИЯ В РЫБИНСКОМ ВОДОХРАНИЛИЩЕ В МАЛОВОДНЫЕ ГОДЫ 21 ВЕКА
Authors: Литвинов A.С. 
Published: February 2020

В работе рассмотрены результаты исследований водного баланса и экологических условий
Рыбинского водохранилища в маловодные годы начала 21 века. Для анализа использованы данные Рыбинской ГМО по ежегодному расчету составляющих водного баланса водохранилища и материалы гидрологических и гидробиологических съемок на водохранилище проводимых сотрудниками Института. Показано, что с 2000 по 2017 г.г. в притоке в водохранилище отмечалось два маловодных года (2002 г. и 2014 г.) с объемом годового притока меньше 20 км3 при среднегодовом объеме 32,646 км3. Большой размах колебаний притока приводит к изменению уровней наполнения водохранилища, его объема и росту площадей временного осушения, что оказывает влияние на обитание гидробионтов.

Такая глубина заделки клубнелуковиц считается оптимальной для выращивания. Об этом свидетельствуют многолетние интродукционные исследования, а также литературные источники. Рядовая посадка позволить нам своевременно ухаживать за растениями на протяжении всего вегетационного периода. Опыты показали возможность успешного его культивирования в условиях Ташкента. Для изучения влияние почвенных условий на рост и развитие растений опыты были заложены на 2-х (на обычных почвах и с перемещением перегноя или листового перегноя) вариантах.
Выявлено, что почвенные условия положительно влияет на развития растений. У растений, растущих на более благоприятных условиях за счет сохранение почвенной влаги рост и развития растений, а также продолжительность цветения увеличивается на 10-15 дней. Добавление органических удобрений в почву обеспечивает нарастание биомассы клубнелуковиц в 2 раза и больше.
ASSESSMENT OF THE EFFECTIVENESS OF THE PUBLIC ADMINISTRATION SYSTEM
Authors: Chazova I. Yu. 
Published: February 2020

The purpose of the study is to analyze thematic sources for assessing the effectiveness of public authorities, determining the choice of an assessment method at the level of individual authorities, analyzing the process of evaluating the effectiveness of managerial activities, as well as identifying problems that arise in the process of determining the effectiveness of government bodies and public civil servants. Consider the performance evaluation of executive bodies of state power and officials on the example of the Udmurt Republic.
In the process, the methods used in economic science were used: general scientific (dialectic, analysis and synthesis, comparison and analogy,); special (systemic, comparative analysis, statistical, experimental).
Result. Determining the choice of an assessment method at the level of individual public authorities is related to the choice of methods for assessing the effectiveness of civil service as a whole at the federal level. Specific indicators of the effectiveness and efficiency of activities have been identified, allowing to assess the level of achievement of the tasks of state authorities of the Udmurt Republic, depending on the industry and the specifics of the activity. The mechanism for the formation of specific indicators allows us to determine strategic indicators for the development of public administration, based on current priorities and their specification in the next calendar year. The application of the methodology for assessing the effectiveness of the executive bodies of state power of the Udmurt Republic, as well as the adoption of the Decree and order of the Head of the Udmurt Republic, will contribute to increasing the efficiency of the activities of executive bodies of state power.
Conclusions. Taking into account the analysis of thematic sources for assessing the effectiveness of the activities of state authorities, it can be concluded that the effectiveness of public administration contains a combination of various results of managerial activity, both in the state and in the public sphere. Efficiency assessment indicators cover almost all spheres of activity of executive bodies of state power of the constituent entities of the Russian Federation and include a significant number of economic criteria. In addition to quantitative statistical indicators, special attention is paid to qualitative indicators, the assessment of which should be given by the population of the region. Only a comprehensive performance assessment allows you to get complete and reliable information about the quality of public administration in the constituent entities of the Russian Federation

Introduction: Kawasaki disease is an acute vasculitis of unknown etiology. The epidemiological data available for Nepal remains insufficient. In Nepal, Kawasaki disease has only been reported in cases of brief reports, leaving the true disease burden unknown. Many cases go undiagnosed and untreated due to a lack of knowledge regarding this entity. The objective of this study was to find the prevalence of Kawasaki disease in a tertiary care hospital.
Methods: This descriptive cross-sectional study was carried out in a tertiary care hospital of Nepal from 2013 to 2018 after taking ethical approval from the Institutional Review Committee. The sample size was calculated and the consecutive sampling method was done. Data collection and entry was done in Microsoft Excel, point estimate at 99% Confidence Interval was calculated along with frequency and proportion for binary data.
Results: The overall prevalence of Kawasaki disease was found to be 0.1% among 11,416 patients under the age of 5 years admitted in pediatrics ward. There were 4 (33.33%) cases of complete Kawasaki and 8 (66.67%) cases of incomplete Kawasaki. There were 9 (75%) males and 3 (25%) females and the male to female ratio was 3:1. There was a male preponderance. The age at diagnosis ranged between 4 and 60 months. The median age at diagnosis was 10.5 months.
