What Happened to Our Will to Serve in the West? Secularization, Individualism, Family and the Decline of the Civilization
Authors: Michalski Michał A. 
Published: March 2021

The West is changing profoundly and so is its cultural and community-building potential. When we observe the transformations of this civilization in such aspects as fertility rates, marriage and divorce statistics, single-parenthood and out-of-wedlock births, birth control and euthanasia, one may look for a common explanation of this phenomena. It seems that people care less for each-other and more about themselves, and spend less time in long-term relationships which demand engagement, devotion and readiness to serve. At the same time, they do not seem to be happier or wealthier.According to the thesis of my paper, in order to understand and explain the changes listed above it is necessary to analyze them in a wider framework of socio-cultural shifts that took place in recent centuries in the West. This paper concentrates on such phenomena as secularization, rise of individualism and transformations of family life. These elements are going to be tested as key processes which triggered and facilitated profound transformations of culture and social structure which manifest themselves today in such alarming trends as, for example, demographic imbalance due to declining fertility and population ageing, decreasing human capital due to low-quality socialization, population control as well as eugenic practices or feminization of poverty. It seems that the current socio-economic condition of the West calls for critical and thorough analysis of dominating norms, values and beliefs which influence everyday decisions and the actions of millions of people who, in general, do not want to see the decline of their welfare and well-being.The aim of this paper is to engage and combine different findings from such disciplines as economics, psychology, history, sociology and cultural studies in order to present the will to serve which can be described as a foundational dimension and condition of life.
The Process of Creating a Digital Communication Model for the Vatican
Authors: Kloch Józef 
Published: March 2021

In 1978, in the Holy See, all communication took place thanks to the analogue techno­logy of text, sound and image recording. In the following years, the progress in computer science, made it possible to save any kind of data in the form of digital recording, so that one could collect data and transfer it to any place in an instant. Digitalization also ­allowed the Vatican to create a new model of communication with the modern world. This model was first based on the capabilities of computer networks and then on the Internet. It was first tested by the Holy See in Latin America. The experience of the Latin American Church’s Computer Network (RIIAL) was transferred to the Vatican, and then developed and proposed by John Paul II to the entire Universal Church. This model of digital communication would not have been possible without collaborators such as John Patrick Foley, Judith Zoebelein, Joaquin Navarro-Valls and a group of lay Catholics and clergy from Latin America. It was thanks to them that the Holy See began to communicate digitally through the World Wide Web and to use e-mail in a relatively short time since their invention. The present analysis concerns the creation of a digital model of communication during the pontificate of John Paul II (1978–2005).The inclusion of social media in the communication model of the Vatican, took place during the successors of the Pope from Poland.
Voicing the Longing of the “Adolescent Heart” through Photography and Film: Connecting Transcendence and Revelation in Catholic Religious Education
Authors: Wright Edward 
Published: March 2021

This paper explores how through narrative pedagogies inspired simultaneously by divine pedagogy revealed in Scripture and the power of modern media to visually represent the human heart’s most profound longings, divine revelation can, through Catholic Religious Education (CRE), reach and transform adolescent hearts. Such a transformation is made possible through adolescents’ expression of transcendence in a communal context that is facilitated when metaphor’s power in helping adolescents tell stories about themselves is unlocked through photography and film. These media teach young people use their capacity for imagination and critical thinking more effectively and produce narratives of self through which they narrate who they are and would like to be. Such media impact identity through the process of merging words, imagery, music and movement, and can be so dynamic and effective in representing self. CRE can thus enable young people to become critical, even of their own past experiences, make them more integrated and coherent, empower them to meet life’s challenges, and afford them the opportunity to project their lives in the future as they wish them to be. All throughout such a process, adolescents learn more what God’s revelation entails and its potential to make human life more beautiful and meaningful.

Authors: Kovač Jernej , Javornik Krečič Marija 
Published: March 2021

The primary purpose of this study was to explore the association between individuals’ attachments to their mothers and fathers, and their subsequent attachments to partners, based on research conducted in Slovenia. Participants in the empirical study were antenuptial couples who attended the premarital counselling course organized by and offered through the Franciscan Family Institute in Ljubljana, Slovenia. In order to explore more fully the concept of attachment, the authors of the study focused on the following dimensions: trust, communication and estrangement. The results of the study showed greater similarities in the three identified dimensions to the way in which both women and men experience attachment to their mothers and partners, while there were marked differences in the subjects’ experience of attachment to their fathers.

The Learning and teaching process of children from socially excluded communities
Authors: Rác René , Ludvigh Cintulová Lucia 
Published: March 2021

The current problem of the low standard of the educational system for pupils from socially excluded communities is that it is not a flexible system and the primary schools do not only provide an educational but also a space to socialize for children. It is important to create a functioning education strategy that will not only respond to specific aspects of the personality of children from excluded communities, but will also be able to create a stimulating environment for them to develop. The emergence of socially excluded communities is the result of several factors; some examples are the low social status of families, low level of parental education and school aspects in the locality where primary school is associated with segregation. The social development of children from an early age is influenced by the family and the environment where their education takes place.
Tacitus and C. Licinius Mucianus
Authors: Altman William Henry Furness 
Published: March 2021

Resumo: Baseando-se nas ideias de Ronald Syme sobre a simpatia de Tácito por Marcelo Éprio, assim como no trabalho de Dylan Sailor, que revela a postura crítica do historiador em relação a Helvídio Prisco, este artigo mostra por que a descrição de Muciano é importante tanto para combinar quanto para confirmar essas duas vertentes interpretativas. Apresentado como “criador de reis” a Vespasiano, Muciano – ou melhor, o retrato que Tácito faz dele – revela-se um guia crucial, embora negligenciado, para os métodos e as simpatias do historiador cuja carreira dependia da Dinastia Flaviana e que decidiu contar seus feitos em suas Histórias.
Evaluation of an Initial Specimen Diversion Device (ISDD) on Rates of Blood Culture Contamination in the Emergency Department
Authors: Buzard Blake , Evans Patrick , Schroeder Todd 
Published: March 2021

Introduction: Blood cultures are the gold standard for identifying bloodstream infections. The Clinical and Laboratory Standards Institute recommends a blood culture contamination rate of <3%. Contamination can lead to misdiagnosis, increased length of stay and hospital costs, unnecessary testing and antibiotic use. These reasons led to the development of initial specimen diversion devices (ISDD). The purpose of this study is to evaluate the impact of an initial specimen diversion device on rates of blood culture contamination in the emergency department.
Methods: This was a retrospective, multi-site study including patients who had blood cultures drawn in an emergency department. February 2018 to April 2018, when an ISDD was not utilized, was compared with June 2019 to August 2019, a period where an ISDD was being used. The primary outcome was total blood culture contamination. Secondary outcomes were total hospital cost, hospital and intensive care unit length of stay, vancomycin days of use, vancomycin serum concentrations obtained, and repeat blood cultures obtained.
Results: A statistically significant difference was found in blood culture contamination rates in the Pre-ISDD group vs the ISDD group (7.47% vs 2.59%, p<0.001). None of the secondary endpoints showed a statistically significant difference.
Conclusions: Implementation of an ISDD reduces blood culture contamination in a statistically significant manner. However, we were unable to capture any statistically significant differences in the secondary outcomes.

Authors: Nilsen Kari , Walling Anne , Grothusen Jill , Irwin Gretchen , Meyer Mark , Unruh Greg 
Published: March 2021

Purpose
The purpose of this study was to provide information to assist students, faculty, and staff in making critical career-determining decisions regarding the residency NRMP “Match©” process.
Method
A 47-item survey questionnaire was developed and piloted on a regional campus in 2015. The questionnaire also incorporated a request for comments about the interviewing experience and suggestions to improve the process. The questionnaire was distributed each year in late February to early March from 2016 to 2020, after rank lists had been submitted but before announcement of Match© results.
Results
The overall response rate was 86.1% (897/1042). Annual response rates ranged from 70.0% in 2020 to 97.0% in 2018. Respondents’ average age was 27.3 (± 2.7) years and 50.0% (448/897) were male. Most applied to family medicine (164/897: 18.2%) and internal medicine (140/897; 15.6%). Eight specialties had fewer than ten applicants over the six-year period. The number of students applying to individual specialties fluctuated, but no specialty showed a consistent upward or downward trend over the study period.
Conclusion
This study indicates a huge difference in numbers of applications, expenses, and days interviewing. Students crave more guidance, a more efficient system, transparent communication with programs, and less pressure during the process. Reducing the escalating volume of applications is central to improving to system. Despite efforts to better inform applicants, student behavior is unlikely to change until they feel safe in the belief that lower, more realistic numbers of applications, and interviews are likely to result in securing an appropriate residency position.
ANALYSIS AND PREDICTION OF GREENHOUSE GAS EMISSION USING FEEDFORWARD NEURAL NETWORK
Authors: Dr. Vrushali Y. Kulkarni Pranali K. Kosamkar , 
Published: March 2021

Greenhouse Gas (GHG) emission is caused by decomposition of biomass and dead plant residues, livestock enteric fermentation in ruminants, and burning of crop residues. As the concentration of GHG rises it raises the temperature on the globe causing the Global Warming. Alterations in agriculture management practices may reduce the GHG emission. Therefore, there is a need to analyze and forecast the GHG emission from Agriculture. We have built the Feedforward Neural Network using sequential neural network in keras for predicting CO2 and CH4 emission for Onion crop from open farm and poly house. We selected Onion for our study because Onion is one of the second most important commercial crops of the India. The GHG emission may vary in open farm and poly house for onion crop because the environment is controlled in poly house as compared to open farm. For this study we collected the field data of soil attributes, climatic attributes and CO2, CH4 greenhouse gases from the experiment field. We hyper tune the model with 3, 4 and 5 layers with different epoch. We have used Root mean squared error (RMSE), Mean squared error (MSE) and R-square as a coefficient of correlation for model prediction accuracy. Model predicted that Nitrogen, Moisture, Pressure, Humidity and Temperature are major affecting factors for emission of GHG for onion crop from open farm and poly house. The model indicates good prediction response for GHG emission with major influencing attribute for onion crop.
Control and Coordination of Self-Adaptive Traffic Signal Using Deep Reinforcement Learning
Authors: Prof. C.Y. Patil Pallavi Mandhare, Dr. Jyoti Yadav, Prof. Vilas Kharat, 
Published: March 2021

The most observable obstacle to sustainable mobility is traffic congestions. These congestions cannot effectively be fixed by traditional control of traffic signals. Safe and smooth movement of traffic is ensured by a self-controlled traffic signal. As such, to coordinate the traffic flow it is necessary to implement dynamic traffic signal subsequences. Primarily, Traffic Signal Controllers (TSC) provides sophisticated control and coordination of vehicles. The control and coordination of traffic signal control systems can be effectively achieved by implementing the Deep Reinforcement Learning (DRL) approaches.
The decision-making capabilities at intersections are improved by having variations of traffic signal timing using an adaptive TSC. Alternatively, the actual traffic demand is nothing but managing the traffic systems. It analyses the incoming number and type of vehicles and gives a real-time response at intersection geometrics and controls the traffic signals accordingly.
The proposed DRL algorithm observes traffic data and operates optimum management plans for the regulation of the traffic flow. Furthermore, an existing traffic simulator is used to help provide a realistic environment to support the proposed algorithm.
An Effectual Data Transmission Approach to Prevent Black Hole Attack in Mobile Adhoc Networks
Authors: Selvavinayaki Dr. K. 
Published: March 2021

The dynamic nature of infrastructure in MANET makes security as a critical issue. Due to mobility of nodes, network is easily affected by several types of attacks. In particular black hole attack cause packet dropping, misrouting the information from source to destination. To prevent a network from the effects of the black hole attack, we propose a most reliable data transfer scheme to detect the black hole nodes in the network and ensure the availability, reliability, confidentiality of the information. First, the proposed scheme detects the black hole node using trust active and node recommendation values. Second, the reliability and confidentiality of the information is achieved by using verifiable secret sharing scheme. The proposed algorithm is implemented on AOMDV protocol. The simulation results show the proposed algorithm achieves the better packet delivery ratio, misbehavior detection efficiency, fewer packets overhead and low end to end delay than the existing schemes.

In India, a major part of the population does not have access to modern kind of teaching services. The main reason for this financial exclusion in India is the lack of regular or substantial income, excessive documentation for loans & opening of accounts, lack of proximity of the financial institutions, high transportation cost & loss of daily wage. Every person has a working life time period of about 35 years, normally between 25 to 65 years of age. In Indian Scenario of competitive market, over population and scarcity of good jobs, run on the theory of ‘Survival of the Fittest’, No profession is stress free. This has highlighted the fact that how much costs is associated with stress in the workplace and claims for psychological injury are spiraling. As a result, stress and workplace health have become major issues of great concern over the last decade, both internationally and nationally.
The purpose of this study was to synthesize the vast array of literature that exists on the topic of work stress and draw some relevant conclusions regarding to it. The review also aimed to identify areas where further research was necessary and the methodological flaws in existing research that needed to be addressed in this research.

Published: March 2021

Cardiovascular disease (CVD) is one of the critical diseases and the most common cause of morbidity and mortality worldwide. Therefore, early detection and prediction of such a disease is extremely essential for a healthy life. Cardiac imaging plays an important role in the diagnosis of cardiovascular disease but its role has been limited to visual assessment of heart structure and its function. However, with the advanced techniques and tools of big data and machine learning, it become easier to clinician to diagnose the CVD. Stenosis with in the Coronary Arteries (CA) are often determined by using the Coronary Cine Angiogram (CCA). It comes under the invasive image modality. CCA is the effective method to detect and predict the stenosis. In this paper a coronary analysis automation method is proposed in disease diagnosis. The proposed method includes pre-processing, segmentation, identifying vessel path and statistical analysis.
“Every Scientifically Educated Lawyer Should be a Cultural Fighter for the Ideals of Law in Life!“ — Nikolay I. Palienko’s Legal and Political Views
Authors: Tumanova A. S. , Safonov A. A. 
Published: March 2021

. The paper analyzes the legal views of Nikolay I. Palienko, a prominent philosopher of law and a state historian of the beginning of the last century. The authors pay significant attention to the integrative concept of legal understanding that is followed by Prof. Nikolay Palienko. They also substantiate originality and significance of the concept in the light of modernization of the political and legal order in late imperial Russia. It seems that under certain conditions it could serve as a bridge between positivist jurisprudence and the doctrine of “reborn natural law” developed in pre-revolutionary Russia. It was intended to smooth out the contradictions in both doctrines and contribute to the development of a new methodology for law understanding in the context of transformation of the Russian legal system towards establishing institutions of constitutional order.On the basis of published sources, the authors show the evolution of the scholar’s views from the positivist theory of law to idealism that is not properly estimated in the legal literature and is quite typical for the legal scholars of the interrevolutionary period.The authors conclude that Prof. Nikolay I. Palienko scholarship and knowledge allowed him to substantiate his own concept of legal understanding that can be considered integrative on the basis of achievements of the positivist theory of law, philosophy of natural law, psychological and sociological concepts of legal understanding. Prof. Palienko proclaimed the normative nature of law and at the same time expressed ideas of the supremacy of law over the state and the coherence of the state provided by law. An essential element of his legal concept was the legal consciousness of the society, acknowledgement of its role in the course of law education, as well as its establishment as a source of law. Palienko’s idea of legal coherence of the state represents a synthesis of positivism with idealism and leads to a new stage of development of legal methodology and ideology, namely: integrative jurisprudence. Scholar’s political and legal ideas contributed to the development of ideas about the rule of law, which were very popular in Russia during the period of development of representative institutions and constitutionalism.
