Curbing the Magic Remedies in India: A Call for Vigilance and Integrity
Authors: Patil Vasant 
Published: September 2024

In an era where medical advancements have reached unprecedented heights, the persistence of magic remedies in India poses a significant threat to public health. Despite rigorous regulations and public awareness campaigns, the allure of quick fixes and miracle cures continues to captivate a vulnerable populace, leading to detrimental consequences. It is imperative that we intensify our efforts to eradicate this menace and safeguard the health and well-being of our citizens. Magic remedies, often marketed with grandiose promises of instant relief and miraculous cures, prey on the desperation and ignorance of individuals suffering from chronic and acute conditions. These unproven treatments, ranging from herbal concoctions to dubious devices, exploit the hopes of those seeking a rapid escape from their ailments. The harsh reality, however, is that these remedies often lack scientific validation and can lead to worsening health conditions, financial loss, and even death. Curbing the threat of magic treatments in India is now not simply the accountability of the authorities or regulatory bodies; it is a collective duty that includes healthcare providers, researchers, educators, and the public. By working together, we can create a surroundings solely safe, effective, and scientifically validated remedies are on hand to the public.

Summertime Politics: Cultural Resurgence, Resource Sovereignty, and the Aasivik Movement
Authors: Norman David W. 
Published: September 2024

WhileHome Rulenegotiations between Kalaallit Nunaat and Denmark were underway, the Aasivik summer festivals, founded in 1976, proposed an alternative model of collective politics. Borrowing its name from a term for historical gathering sites, the modern Aasivik movement hosted debates on a wide range of topics, bringing political activity into settlements and camps. Although Aasivik’s influence on Kalaallit Nunaat’s political history has been widely recognized, the movement’s theoretical complexity has gone largely unacknowledged. In this article, I discuss several key episodes from the festival’s first decade, emphasizing how Aasivik mobilized cultural heritage as a means of responding to social inequalities introduced by Danish colonial rule. First, I outline Aasivik’s roots in local and global Indigenous decolonial movements and describe how these influences led activists to analyze topics such as dispossession, labor, Marxist thought, and collective land access in the festival’s early debates and public statements. I then examine how the presence of customary performance and avant-garde theater at several Aasiviit intersected with the movement’s political positions, focusing on the activities of the Tuukkaq Theater and the revitalization of uaajeerneq (mask dancing). Finally, I discuss the significance of Aasivik’s land-based model of politics for contemporary debates in Indigenous critical theory.

Objective
Cephalomedullary nails (CMN) are implants with a high success rate in the surgical treatment of trochanteric fractures. The aim of this study is to compare the radiological outcomes and mechanical complications of femoral trochanteric fractures treated with three different CMNs.

Methods
Intertrochanteric fractures in patients aged 50 years and older treated with CMN between January 2016 and December 2021 were reviewed retrospectively. A total of 158 cases meeting the criteria were included to final analysis. Cases were divided into three groups based on the type of nail used (helical blade: group 1, n = 54; screw: group 2, n = 53; winged screw: group 3, n = 51). Demographic characteristics, mechanical complications, reduction quality, tip-apex distances (TAD) and Cleveland zones were compared between the groups. Femoral neck shortening, varus collapse, lag sliding, changes in abductor length were compared between study groups. Factors affecting mechanical complications were also analyzed.

Results
Study groups were homogenic in terms of demographic characteristics, fracture type and reduction quality. Regarding mechanical complications, no statistically significant difference was found between groups. All three implants had similar outcomes on femoral neck shortening, varus collapse and lag sliding. Pooled analysis of 158 cases showed that mechanical complications increase as the quality of reduction decreases (p = 0.000) same applies when TAD alters from the desired range (p = 0.025) and with non-optimally implanted blade according to Cleveland zones (p = 0, 000).

Conclusion
The radiological outcomes and mechanical complications of helical blade, screw type blade and winged screw type blade proximal femoral nails are similar in selected group. Regardless of the device type, it is necessary to obtain high reduction quality, obtain TAD within described range and optimally place the blade according to Cleveland Zones to reduce the failure rate and avoid complications.

Published: September 2024

The use of inorganic commercial coagulants for water and wastewater clarification has been linked to the prevalence of human health and environmental issues. Natural coagulants are currently being explored as an alternative option for replacing synthetic coagulants. This present study, examines the use of Musa paradisiaca peels as a natural based coagulant for turbidity reduction in sullage wastewater. Musa paradisiaca peels, alum and blended were used in the study as coagulants for sullage wastewater clarification. The blended coagulant was prepared by combining the Alum and Musa paradisiaca peel powder in a ratio of 1:1. The sullage wastewater used in the study had an initial concentration of 151.8 NTU and was sourced within the University premises. The batch experimental procedure to examine the effectiveness of the natural coagulant was used. The study results show that the highest turbidity removal was for alum, blended, and coagulant, from 151.8 to 1.1 NTU, 151.8 to 14.43 NTU, and 151.8 to 29.32 NTU respectively. The maximum results for the effect of contact time on the rate of turbidity removal were attained at 6 h for all coagulants. The effect of natural coagulant performance on pH medium has indicated that it favours the acidic solution. The results obtained in this study recommend the efficiency and value of Musa paradisiaca peels as coagulant. The use of Musa paradisiaca peels as a natural coagulant offers a sustainable and cost-effective solution for the treatment of sullage wastewater. The use of Musa paradisiaca as a natural coagulant provides an alternative solution for replacing synthetic coagulants and overcomes health challenges associated with its usage, offers water treatment at low cost and reduces environmental issues associated with agri-food waste disposal, thereby promoting sustainable waste management.
Pro-stakeholders motivation: Uncovering a new source of motivation for business companies
Authors: Bastons Miquel , Mas Marta , Rey Carlos 
Published: July 2016

AbstractThe motivation of employees is one of the main reasons why companies define mission statements and other declarations of commitment to the company’s stakeholders. Research on organizational behavior has identified three main types of motivation: extrinsic, intrinsic and prosocial motivation. However, the three forms of motivation have hardly ever been considered together, nor has it been studied which motivation is linked to the stakeholders of business companies. The main contribution of this paper is to present an agent-stakeholders model of interaction which includes and integrates extrinsic, intrinsic and pro-stakeholders motivation, as a type of prosocial motivation related to the sense of contribution to benefitting the company’s stakeholders. By basing the research on 119 Spanish companies it is verified that the three types of motivation are present in employee motivation. This finding has implications for management, as it presents the dimensions of the motivational task to be performed by managers.
Relationships among performance appraisal satisfaction, work–family conflict and job stress
Authors: Ismail Hussein Nabil , Gali Nazha 
Published: July 2016

AbstractThe purpose of this paper is to examine the relationship between performance appraisal satisfaction, job stress and work–family conflict. Furthermore, the study explores the role of job stress as a mediator between satisfaction with performance appraisal and work–family conflict. The total sample consisted of 120 participants from different industries. The findings revealed that performance appraisal satisfaction was negatively correlated with job stress and work–family conflict. However, job stress fully mediated the relationship between performance appraisal satisfaction and work–family conflict. The study contributes to the limited body of knowledge on employee reactions to performance appraisal and in particular, performance appraisal satisfaction. The findings can help to shed more light on the relationship between performance appraisal satisfaction and employees’ psychological responses.
Does Organic Wine Taste Better? An Analysis of Experts' Ratings
Authors: Delmas Magali A. , Gergaud Olivier , Lim Jinghui 
Published: August 2016

AbstractEcolabels are part of a new wave of environmental policy that emphasizes information disclosure as a tool to induce environmentally friendly behavior by both firms and consumers. Little consensus exists as to whether ecocertified products are actually better than their conventional counterparts. This study seeks to understand the link between ecocertification and product quality. We use data from three leading wine-rating publications (theWine Advocate,Wine Enthusiast, andWine Spectator) to assess quality for 74,148 wines produced in California between 1998 and 2009. Our results indicate that ecocertification is associated with a statistically significant increase in wine quality rating. Being ecocertified increases the scaled score of the wine by 4.1 points on average. (JEL Classifications: L15, L66, Q13, Q21, Q56)

SUMMARYThis study provides the first comprehensive information on the parasite fauna of the white-streaked grouperEpinephelus ongus. A total of 35 specimens from the archipelago Karimunjawa, Java Sea, Indonesia were studied for metazoan parasites. For comparison, the documented parasite community of 521E. areolatus,E. coioidesandE. fuscoguttatusfrom previous studies were analysed. A total of 17 different parasite taxa were recognized forE. ongus, including 14 new host and four new locality records. This increases the known parasite taxa ofE. ongusby more than 80%. The ectoparasite fauna was predominated by the monogeneanPseudorhabdosynochus quadratusresulting in a low Shannon index of species diversity of the entire parasite community (0.17). By contrast, the species diversity excluding the ectoparasites reached the highest value recorded for Indonesian epinephelids (1.93). The endoparasite fauna was predominated by generalists, which are already known from Indonesia. This demonstrates the potential risk of parasite transmission throughE. ongusinto mariculture and vice versa. One-way analyses of similarity revealed a significantly different parasite community pattern ofE. onguscompared withE. areolatusandE. fuscoguttatusas well as minor differences withE. coioides. This finding refers to different habitat preferences of these epinephelids within the analysed size range.
The Elements of the Buckling of Curved Plates
Authors: Cox H. L. , Pribram E. 
Published: August 2016

The buckling of a round tube or curved A plate under axial compression is an example of that class of instability in which the initial buckled form becomes itself at once unstable. As a result the buckle immediately develops to a large amplitude, often with loud noise. This class of instability has been aptly termed “oil canning” from a familiar example.Thorough investigation of oil canning problems must always be tedious. As for any buckling problem it is essential to use large deflection theory and, since the amplitude of buckle rapidly becomes large, it is necessary also to consider in detail the distribution of the membrane (or mid-plane) stresses due to the buckle. This necessity, in combination with peculiar buckled forms, renders the complete solution even for a tube extremely difficult and tedious. Moreover, since the buckled form for a complete tube does not accord at all well with the edge conditions for a curved plate, the full analysis for the latter is almost prohibitively difficult.
The Hardness Test as a Means of Estimating the Tensile Strength of Metals
Authors: Taylor W. J. 
Published: August 2016

When J. A. Brinell, at the end of the last century, interested himself in the property hardness of metals, he could have had no idea of the importance to be attained later by the new line of investigation he was launching nor of the interesting machines and their applications for which his work was to provide the inspiration.In the aircraft industry this form of test is not solely used to determine the property hardness as such, but is used to give some idea of the maximum tensile strength of the material. This use is illustrated by some of the specifications controlling the quality of aircraft material, in which hardness tests are required on a specified percentage of bars to ensure that the bars which are riot tensile tested will give a maximum tensile strength of not less than the minimum nor greater than the maximum specification values.
A Note on the Checking of Contractants
Authors: Guest J. 
Published: August 2016

Simple means of checking contractants has been devised which is considered essential to a computor.In a recent paper Macmillan describes the method of contractants as applied to the evaluation of determinants. The method is essentially based on the extensional identityNow, any determinant of order n may be expressed as a determinant of order n - 1, all of whose elements are third order determinants. This process is now repeated (n - 2) times until the value of the original determinant is obtained.
Metal Adhesive Processes
Authors: Parker F. H. 
Published: August 2016

Metal adhesives have been known to the Aircraft Industry for at least ten years, the Chrysler Cycle Weld process being among the earliest. Since then metal-to-metal bonding has been the subject of many papers, but no member of a firm of aircraft constructors is known to have lectured on the subject.It is hoped, therefore, that this paper may prove a useful contribution to the workshop aspects of the method. The fundamentals of adhesion will be avoided and only brief reference will be made to the strengths of structures assembled by that means; those are matters for the physicist and aircraft designer.
Party and Policy in West German Cities
Authors: Gilpin Robert 
Published: August 2016

This paper attempts to measure the impact of party ideology focusing on policy making in West German urban government. An effort is made to determine whether city governments under the control of leftist parties sponsor different, possibly more leftist policies than cities under conservative control. It is found that while “leftist” control of municipal administrations does not produce leftist policies, conservative control does have a major impact in inhibiting the growth in the scope of local government.Several reasons for the only rough correspondence between party control and policy are examined. The low correlation between leftist (SPD) control and municipal output is traced to differences among SPD cities in the power of the SPD majority, in class structure, and in degree of financial independence. It is also traced to the lack of intercorrelation among the forms of “leftist” performance and the incremental nature of most urban policy making. Other factors—the power of municipal counter-elites and the federalistic structure of the West German government—are discounted as possible intervening variables.
Daniel O’Connell and the repeal party
Authors: Whyte J.H. 
Published: August 2016

One of the criticisms most frequently made of O’Connell’s conduct of his agitation for repeal of the union has always been that he failed to build up a parliamentary party that would be a credit to his cause. The accusation comes in its harshest form, naturally enough, from his political opponents at the time. A whig journalist, for instance, writing in 1843, described O’Connell’s followers in these terms:
It would be difficult to have procured forty Irishmen with less of the wit or sparkling talent that abound in the ‘Emerald Isle’. The charge against them was not merely that they were such paltry senators, but that they were such wretched specimens of their countrymen. Judged by an Irish standard, without the slightest reference to English taste, their morale was of the lowest kind. There was nothing grand or elevating in their Donnybrook Fair school of patriotism. They could make a noise, and display animal vivacity, but when intellectual manifestations were demanded, they were powerless. With great opportunities, their party remained without distinction, for wit, eloquence, or conspicuous ability. Terribly afraid of O’Connell, who used them as the fingers and toes of his political system, theyCringed to his face, consulted, and reveredHis oracles—detested him—and feared.And it was either a whig or a tory journalist who invented for O’Connell’s party the wounding nickname of ‘O’Connell’s tail’, with its implication that the members of the party were without wills of their own, completely subservient to their leader’s commands. But it was not from whigs and tories alone that criticism came: earnest repealers themselves complained that their party was damaging the cause they had at heart.
The church and the world in early Christian Ireland
Authors: Hughes Kathleen 
Published: August 2016

The writings of Columbanus, Adomnán’s Life of Columcille and Bede’s account of the Irish mission to Northumbria together show us a church c. 600 remarkable for its austerity, its vitality and its happiness. Constant journeys and displacements, mean dwellings, common food, the discipline of study and prayer left the leaders not saddened but content, and commended them to the people’s veneration. The motive force of their actions was the love of God, followed with a rare degree of perfection; and, as the sources constantly say or imply, such love is no trouble. Vive in Christo ut Christus in te urges Columbanus, and Bede, in his sober summing-up on the Irish mission to Northumbria, while he disclaims any intimate knowledge of Columcille, testifies: ‘We know for certain that he left successors distinguished for their purity of life, their love of God and their loyalty to the monastic rule.’The indifference to worldly interests which sustained these early pilgrims, and their concentration on purely religious values contrast sharply with the early ninth-century church, a great institution fully alive to the civilizing influence which power and wealth could exert. We need to know how this change came about, and in precisely what ways the church c. 800 differed from its predecessor.
An Irish Expedition to Scotland in 1335
Authors: Nicholson Ranald 
Published: August 2016

While the reign of Edward II has long been recognised as a critical period in the historical development of Ireland, it is less well known that the early years of the reign of Edward III also represent a critical phase. As in the previous reign, the crisis was connected with Anglo-Scottish warfare. In 1315 it was the Scots under Edward Bruce who had taken the initiative and overrun Ireland. It was the Scots again who landed in Ulster in 1327, hoping once more to enlist Irish support for their cause. In the following year the dying Robert Bruce paid a last visit to Ulster, demonstrating in a peaceful yet forceful manner that the initiative still lay with the Scots. By 1335, Edward III had shown his qualities as a military commander and the situation had changed: an expedition set sail from Ireland to co-operate with the English in an invasion of Scotland.The details of this episode are of more than intrinsic interest. The surviving documents that record the organisation of the expedition illustrate the workings of the English dominion in Ireland in the crucial period following the Bruce invasions. Whether or not the expedition marked a restoration of royal authority in Ireland is a question that calls for an analysis of the events and circumstances that formed the background to the expedition of 1335.
