Investigation of Carbonyl of Asphalt Binders Containing Antiaging Agents and Waste Cooking Oil Using FTIR Spectroscopy
Authors: Cong Peiliang , Hao Hongjie , Luo Weihua 
Published: January 2019

Abstract
The improved antiaging property of asphalt binders containing two types of antioxidants (tns-(2.4-di-tert-butyl)-phosphite (168) and antioxidant 1010 (1010)) and waste cooking oil (WCO) were investigated using Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy. In addition, the regeneration of WCO in aged asphalt binders was discussed. To assess the effects of antioxidants and WCO on the antiaging property of asphalt binders during the thermal oxidative aging process and the regeneration of WCO in aged asphalt binders, the carbonyl indexes were calculated. Experimental results indicated that 168, 1010, and WCO could reduce the carbonyl index of asphalt binders, and moreover, asphalt binders containing 168 had a smaller carbonyl index than those containing 1010, and the carbonyl indexes of the aged asphalt binders were reduced with the increase in WCO content. Therefore, the antioxidants and WCO could improve the antiaging property of asphalt binders, and WCO could be used as a rejuvenator for aged asphalt binders.
Some aspects of leadership in the neo-Hindu religious movement: The case of the Art of Living Foundation in Lithuania
Authors: Ališauskienė Milda 
Published: January 2019

Vilnius UniversityThe leader in any new religious group is a very important person and a key feature in the establishment of the organized religion. The special role and place for the leader is found in the so-called spiritual groups—the Neo-Hindu religious movements. Although such groups do not relate themselves to any religious phenomena in general, an analysis of their activities reveals the traditional importance of their leader in doctrinal and organizational development. The aim of this article is to analyze the role and place of Ravi Shankar, the leader of the Art of Living Foundation (AoLF), the process of his charismatization, as well as the attitudes of members toward the leader and his legitimization from the perspective of the sociology of religion. The work is based on the analysis of certain official documents of the organization and through narratives of members from Lithuania and Denmark. The article focuses on the case of Lithuania, which is revealed through the comparison of the data from Denmark. The analysis revealed that individuals expressed special attitudes toward the leader of the group: that, on the one hand, modern individuals sought liberation from institutionalized religion but at the same time they were searching for spiritual authority. Interviews with members of the AoLF revealed diverse concepts of the spiritual leader. Contrary to the traditionally accepted understanding of a spiritual leader as the head of authority, the narratives revealed an understanding of the spiritual leader as both an advisor and a service provider.

This article investigates the burial customs of the Late Bronze and Early Iron Ages in the territory of northwest Lithuania, focusing on barrow mounds and individual grave settings and grave goods. More than a century of excavations yielded 19 burial sites, in which 182 graves are known (169 cremations and 13 inhumations). The gathered data regarding burial customs consist of grave settings, burial locations within the mounds and grave goods, and these are used to interpret some features of how the communities were socially organized. During the Late Bronze and Early Iron Ages, the dead were buried in different types of graves: barrow mounds and flat graves; individual graves had different stone arrangements in both of mentioned types. This work presents a hypothesis that different types of graves and stone arrangements associated with burials were not just a result of time-related burial customs changes, but it could be an indicator of the social identity of the deceased. It is one of the possible indicators that hierarchic societies existed during the period in question.

The processes of legislation and the development of systems for the preservation of ancient remains, including archaeological heritage, were under development in the countries of Western Europe during the 19th century. The paper seeks to observe the ideas and practices of heritage preservation in Lithuania under the Russian Empire – it is intended to reveal the circumstances under which the notion of heritage protection was born and the ways of its practical implementation. The origins of archaeological science and heritage protection in Lithuania can be traced to the beginning of the 19th c. By the middle of the century, elements of professional heritage protection were implemented in the activities of the Vilnius Museum of Antiquities and the Vilnius Temporary Archaeological Commission. Certain components of professional heritage protection were established in the end of the 19th c.; nevertheless, attempts to pass the general law and to introduce the system of archaeological heritage protection in the Russian Empire were not successful. The birth of a modern Lithuanian nation demanded relevant approaches toward its past in late 19th–early 20th centuries. Efforts were put into the development of the modern Lithuanian national state thus delaying the development of a professional heritage protection system.

Diálogos a partir de Walter Benjamim: a figura de Maiakovski como elo de ligação entre o cubofuturismo e o formalismo russo
Authors: Miranda Carolina Izabela Dutra de 
Published: January 2019

Resumo: O presente trabalho aborda as especificidades do futurismo russo, nomeado cubofuturismo, a partir das colocações de Walter Benjamim, presentes nos textos “A nova literatura Russa” (1927) e “O agrupamento político dos escritores na União Soviética” (1927). Embasando-se na discussão desses textos, pretende-se esclarecer a relação deles com o formalismo russo, importante movimento crítico que ocorreu contemporaneamente ao cubofuturismo. Para tanto, pretende-se explicitar como a figura de Vladimir Maiakovski estabeleceu um elo de ligação entre esses dois movimentos – o crítico e o literário – e de que forma o poeta tornou-se importante marco para ocubofuturismo russo e para engajamento político social do movimento literário. Este trabalho pretende expandir as informações e as visões apresentadas por Benjamim em seus textos, sobretudo em relação à atualização acerca do progresso destes movimentos literários e à importância deles, que dificilmente poderiam ser antevistos pelo teórico alemão no momento de produção de seus escritos.Palavras-chave: Cubofuturismo; Futurismo; Formalismo russo; Maiakovski.Abstract: This study aims to deal with the singularities of Russian futurism, named Cubo-Futurism, based on the writings of Walter Benjamin, exposed in the texts “New Russian Literature” (1927) and “The Political Groupings of Russian Writers” (1927). Based on the discussion of these texts, it is intended to clarify their relationship with Russian formalism, an important critical movement which happened contemporaneously with Cubo-Futurism. For this purpose, it aims to explain how the figure of Vladimir Mayakovsky established a connecting link between these two movements – the critic and the literary – and how the poet became an important symbol for Russian Cubo-Futurism and also for the social and political engagement of the literary movement. This study intends to expand the information and the aspects exposed by Benjamin in his texts, especially in relation to the update on the progress of these literary movements and the importance of them, which could hardly be foreseen by the German theorist at the time of his writings.Keywords: Cubo-Futurism; Futurism; Russian formalism; Mayakovsky.

Resumo: Este artigo analisa os contos “O caminho do vento” e o “O nômade e a víbora”, publicados por Amos Oz em 1965, e o conto “O casamento de Gália”, publicado por Avraham B. Yehoshua em 1970, à luz de alguns aspectos teóricos postulados por Walter Benjamin como “alegoria”, “narrativa”, “obra épica”, entre outros. Os três textos surgem no Brasil na coletânea O novo conto israelense (1978), organizado por Rifka Berezin. Nas narrativas é possível vislumbrar algumas imagens surrealistas e expressionistas, bem como um sentido de personagem moderno que demonstra a crise do homem no século XX, tal como proposto por Benjamin. Como isso acontece em um só texto? As reflexões sobre os contos de Oz e de Yehoshua, lidos à luz de Walter Benjamin e de suas proposições sobre a vanguarda europeia, se revelam apropriadas, assim, para seavaliar essas e outras questões presentes nas narrativas.Palavras-chave: Amos Oz; Avraham B.

Published: January 2019

<p>This study investigated Assertiveness Training and Psycho-education as preventive measures of drug abuse among secondary school students in Makurdi Local Government Area. The study adopted a pre-test, post-test and control group experimental design with a 3x2 factorial matrix. The sampling techniques adopted were the simple random method where each student was given an opportunity to be selected, and randomization of experimental groups and the control group to the schools through balloting was also done. Drug abuse prevention questionnaire (DAPQ), a standardized instrument developed by Skinner (1982), with a reliability coefficient of .97 were used for data collection. A total of 40 secondary school students made up of 28 males and 12 females with ages ranging from 15-23 years took part in the study. They also had a mean age of 18.38 Three hypotheses were raised and tested. The results obtained revealed that firstly, assertiveness training and psycho-education have significant treatment effects in the prevention of drug abuse among secondary school students (F(2<sub>)</sub>= 6.88; P&lt; 0.05 ). Secondly, sex had no significant effect on prevention of drug abuse F(1<sub>)</sub>= 0.32; P&gt; 0.05 and thirdly, there was also no statistically significant interaction effects on drug abuse among secondary school students F(2)= 0.82; P&gt; 0.05. Therefore, it is recommended that high premium is placed on developing and mainstreaming prevention programs on drug abuse into the school curriculum in secondary schools for students to become more assertive and acquire more knowledge on drugs and its effects on mental health.</p>
Racism and the Life Course: Taking Time Seriously
Authors: Gee Gilbert C. , Hing Anna , Mohammed Selina , Tabor Derrick C. , Williams David R. 
Published: January 2019

The adage “time is money” signifies that time itself is a major social resource, but the role of time as a determinant of health inequities remains underappreciated. Time is fundamental to health promotion and human agency, as in having time to exercise and maintain social relationships. Further, scarcity in time is related to stress and illness. Time is also racialized, such that racial/ethnic minorities often have less free time and suffer a time penalty in multiple facets of life. Such penalties manifest in problems such as greater time in prison or more time spent accessing services. We argue that time may be a social determinant of health that is shaped by racism across the life course. We focus on three aspects: time as age, time as exposure, and time as a resource and privilege. We distinguish between chronological age, biological age, and social age. We discuss issues of accelerated aging and potential interconnections with critical periods. We also examine racial inequities in time. By more deeply considering time, we may advance our understanding of racial inequities in health.

Health disparities research in the United States over the past 2 decades has yielded considerable progress and contributed to a developing evidence base for interventions that tackle disparities in health status and access to care. However, health disparity interventions have focused primarily on individual and interpersonal factors, which are often limited in their ability to yield sustained improvements. Health disparities emerge and persist through complex mechanisms that include socioeconomic, environmental, and system-level factors. To accelerate the reduction of health disparities and yield enduring health outcomes requires broader approaches that intervene upon these structural determinants. Although an increasing number of innovative programs and policies have been deployed to address structural determinants, few explicitly focused on their impact on minority health and health disparities. Rigorously evaluated, evidence-based structural interventions are needed to address multilevel structural determinants that systemically lead to and perpetuate social and health inequities. This article highlights examples of structural interventions that have yielded health benefits, discusses challenges and opportunities for accelerating improvements in minority health, and proposes recommendations to foster the development of structural interventions likely to advance health disparities research.
