Theological Discourse on the Concept of Heaven of Tertiary Students in San Beda University Campuses
Authors: Leal Melanio 
Published: October 2022

The paper is an attempt to determine the understanding of heaven of tertiary students in San Beda College campuses. It also presents a theological discourse on the concept of heaven. The usual understanding of heaven for most students which is generally uncertain, their understanding of heaven as a place which has been fixated as an extra-terrestrial location into which one goes that resulted in an unfortunate view of reality that separates them from creation and the present world and the absence of deliberate and systematic research effort done on this topic have given the researcher very strong impetus to embark on this study. The paper hopes to build a more solid foundation of Christian faith after one has fully understood heaven as an anticipation of life’s fullness. Lastly, it is the aim of this paper to jolt more theological reflections on life, and on the world-view of human existence in ever changing contextualizaton.

“The Death of Metaphysics” as Metametaphysics
Authors: Joaquin Jeremiah Joven 
Published: October 2022

Over the years, many philosophers have proclaimed the death of metaphysics, the death of that area of philosophy concerned with the study of reality as such. But what exactly do they mean by this? What does this death-of-metaphysics idea imply? In this paper, I offer a way to articulate this idea by formulating it as a metametaphysical thesis about the non-substantivity of metaphysical claims. I argue that given this formulation such a metametaphysical thesis seems implausible.

Human Evolution Theory Is But A Wittgenstein Language-Game
Authors: Pizarro Charito 
Published: October 2022

Wittgenstein in the Blue Books speaks of our craving for generality in connection with our tendency to look for something in common to all the entities which we assume under a general word or term. According to him, misconceptions arise when we tend to look for something ‘common’ to all the entities which we then associate with a general term indicating quality or property. Taking note of this insight of Wittgenstein, we note that our propensity for generalization is what buttresses the mode of inference in the human evolution theory. Clearly, the theory uses concepts anchored on a constellation of terminology belonging to Wittgenstein’s notion of “language games,” i.e. “family resemblances,” “form of life,” “move,” and “grammar.” Complex taxonomic systems (phylogenic trees) have been constructed founded on a linguistic-conceptual hybrid, i.e. the term ‘family resemblance’ mixed with the term ‘common ancestry.’ With phylogeny as (false) ‘evidence’ of common ancestry, action was then propelled by the words ‘family resemblance’ in the sense in which ‘objects,’ e.g. fossil skulls found in geological sites dated millions of years old, resemble ‘modern’ skulls. The biological concept of ‘forms of life’ can be pitted against Wittgenstein's "form of life" concept. The latter is the cultural environment in which the language game occurs, and is applicable to the "community which is bound together by science and education" (Wittgenstein, 1969, p. 38e). Insofar can we consider this ‘community bound together’ as a fertile ground for the culture of semiotic practices. The existing ‘scientific’ theories of the origin of man are the outcome of a reality built by the action motivated or boosted by the notional use of words. The ‘language’ of phylogeny, on closer analysis, is really simply a categorization based on ‘family resemblance’ in extended application through the use of the words ‘ancestral taxon.’

Intonation on Bornholm - between Danish and Swedish
Authors: Grønnum Thorsen Nina 
Published: October 2022

Acoustic investigations of seven speakers on the island of Bornholm and two speakers from Copenhagen, Malmö and Stockholm, respectively, have proved Bornholm to be an interesting compound, prosodically, between Standard Danish and Swedish. A prosodic continuum can be established from Standard Danish, via Skania, over Bornholm, to Standard Swedish. The parameters investigated are (1) manifestation of sentence accent, (2) manifestation of sentence intonation, (3) alignment of fundamental frequency with syllables and segments at the level of the prosodic stress group, and (4) final lengthening. One particularly interesting implication of the results is the division, both according to their function and their form, of sentence accents into (1) prosodically or syntactically determined final default accents and (2) contextually or pragmatically determined focal accents. Default accents are nonexistent in Standard Danish and Skanian, optional in Bornholm and obligatory in Stockholm. Focal accents are non-existent in Standard Danish, optional - but rather rare - in Skanian, optional - but rather frequent - in Bornholm and obligatory in Stockholm.
Changing Gellerup Park
Authors: Eriksson Birgit , Nielsen Anne Mette W. 
Published: October 2022

Some low-income social housing neighborhoods are undergoing radical transformations in Denmark. Classified as “ghettos” and “parallel societies,” and marked by area-specific legislation, we identify a triple exposure in these neighborhoods. The residents are exposed to inequality, stigmatization, and discriminatory inter-ventions. Parallel to this, cultural policies and programs have ap-proached these same neighborhoods based on the assumption that they can be “elevated” through art. Drawing upon a broader re-search in art project in four social housing areas (Eriksson, Nielsen, Sørensen and Yates, 2022), this article focuses on Gellerup Park in Aarhus and considers how two site-specific art platforms address the site and time-specific conditions of the area, offering alterna-tive relations and forms of engagement.
Beyond Climate Breakdown
Authors: Friederici Peter 
Published: October 2022

The importance of telling new climate stories—stories that center the persistence of life itself, that embrace comedy and radical hope.
“How dare you?” asked teenage climate activist Greta Thunberg at the United Nations in 2019. How dare the world's leaders fiddle around the edges when the world is on fire? Why is society unable to grasp the enormity of climate change? In Beyond Climate Breakdown, Peter Friederici writes that the answer must come in the form of a story, and that our miscomprehension of the climate crisis comes about because we have been telling the wrong stories. These stories are pervasive; they come from long narrative traditions, sanctioned by capitalism, Hollywood, and social media, and they revolve around a myth: that the nation exists primarily as a setting for a certain kind of economic activity.
Stories are how we make sense of the world and our place in it. The story that “the economy” takes priority over everything else may seem foreordained, but, Friederici explains, actually reflect choices made by specific people out of self-interest. So we need new stories—stories that center the persistence of life, rather than of capitalism, stories that embrace contradiction and complexity. We can create new stories based on comedy and radical hope. Comedy never says no; hope sprouts like a flower in cracked concrete. These attitudes require a new way of thinking—an adaptive attitude toward life that slips the narrow yoke of definition.
Enterprise Strategy for Blockchain
Authors: Sarathy Ravi 
Published: October 2022

How companies can gain strategic advantage by developing blockchain capabilities.
Blockchain is far more than cryptocurrency. Regarded for a decade as complex and with limited application, blockchain has now matured to be on the verge of fully realizing its disruptive potential. In Enterprise Strategy for Blockchain, business strategy expert Ravi Sarathy shows how companies can gain competitive advantage by developing and deploying blockchain capabilities. Sarathy explains what makes blockchain unique, including its capacities to eliminate intermediaries, guard against hackers, decentralize, and protect privacy. Presenting examples drawn from such sectors as finance, supply chains, computer services, consumer products, and entertainment, he describes how executives can strategically assess blockchain's applicability to their business.
After outlining blockchain's technological features—and its technological obstacles—Sarathy describes disruptive technologies already happening in the financial services market with the emergence of decentralized finance, or DeFi, arguing that a wave of innovation might be positioning DeFi as blockchain's “killer app.” He also explores, among many other uses, a blockchain application that addresses chronic supply chain problems, pilot blockchain programs aimed at facilitating cross-border payments, and the use of NFTs (non-fungible tokens) that allow digital art to be collected and traded. And he outlines a path for organizations that includes establishing a business case for applying blockchain, evaluating enterprise cost-benefits, and preparing the organization to develop the requisite knowledge and people skills while overcoming resistance to change.
Business leaders should invest, explore and experiment with blockchain now, positioning their organizations to be first in their fields, ahead of both rising startups and late-to-the game incumbent peers.
Sounding Bodies
Authors: Pesic Peter 
Published: October 2022

The unfolding influence of music and sound on the fundamental structure of the biomedical sciences, from ancient times to the present.
Beginning in ancient Greece, Peter Pesic writes, music and sound significantly affected the development of the biomedical sciences. Physicians used rhythmical ratios to interpret the pulse, which inspired later efforts to record the pulse in musical notation. After 1700, biology and medicine took a “sonic turn,” viewing the body as a musical instrument, the rhythms and vibrations of which could guide therapeutic insight. In Sounding Bodies, Pesic traces the unfolding influence of music and sound on the fundamental structure of the biomedical sciences.
Pesic explains that music and sound provided the life sciences important tools for hearing, understanding, and influencing the rhythms of life. As medicine sought to go beyond the visible manifestations of illness, sound offered ways to access the hidden interiority of body and mind. Sonic interventions addressed the search for a new typology of mental illness, and practitioners used musical instruments to induce hypnotic states meant to cure both psychic and physical ailments. The study of bat echolocation led to the manifold clinical applications of ultrasound; such sonic devices as telephones and tuning forks were used to explore the functioning of the nerves.
Sounding Bodies follows Pesic's Music and the Making of Modern Science and Polyphonic Minds to complete a trilogy on the influence of music on the sciences. Enhanced digital editions of Sounding Bodies offer playable music and sound examples.
Captivity Induced Web Spinning of Plexippus petersi (Karsch,1878) (Jump/Zebra Spider) of Chennai, India
Authors: Sriram Padmavathi 
Published: October 2022

Plexippus petersi, common jump/zebra spider of Chennai households, belongs to the family of Salticidae. Though spinning of a web is considered to be an inbuilt feature of almost all the spiders, certain spiders do not spin typical webs, and Plexippus petersi is one of them. The present study was undertaken, to investigate if this species of spiders can build a web when exposed to any sort of calamity. In this regard, male and female spiders were carefully handpicked, identified and maintained under laboratory condition for a period of four days. After the experimental period, the spiders were relived from captivity and were individually photographed. During the experimental period, it was quite fascinating to observe that the female of this species, secreted silk threads from her abdominal glands, and were woven in to a sheet web. The silk of the web, was sticky in nature, white in color and was able to be molded in to long filamentous structure. This web spinning behavior was only observed in the female and not in male spiders. The results of this study precisely illustrate the fact that, when triggered under the pressure of a disaster, the female spiders can weave a web and evade any uncertainty This amusing observational study, gives a deeper acumen not only about the behavioral aspect, but also explains, the probable success of these tiny arachnids, in evolution which may be probably attributed to their jumping behavior and web building strategy of the females. The female spiders, seem to weave the web, not just for escape from predators, catching the prey, and protection of egg cases but also to escape from adversaries at uncertain times.

Authors: Mejía Fredy Torres , Mejía Juan Alexander Torres , Cruz Marcos Donaly Bautista , Licona Elvin Pérez 
Published: October 2022

Objectives: The analysis of the performance of honey production hives of three species of honeybees was carried out.
Study Design: Three harvests per year of honey per hive of each species the first was on March-April, the second was on June-July, and the third was on November -December, with a sampling of ten hives per species, data were evaluated by ANOVA analysis, and Duncan mean separation test developed by SAS/STAT program.
Place and Duration of the Study: This research was developed in the department of Paraíso, municipality of Danlí, Honduras, Central America, in Cerro El Águila, latitude 13°56'59" N, and longitude 86°13'59" W, the sampling was carried out in 2020.
Methodology: The qualitative variables were evaluated for each species by In Situ observation that characterized the honeycombs of the three species, and the data were subjected to an analysis of variance and Duncan's mean separation, where the dependent variable is the average yield of Kg of honey/hive.
Results: According to the ANOVA, there are significant differences in: the harvest of the three species of bees (p<0.0001), for the three annual harvests (p=0.0024), and by hives (p<0.0001) and in the analysis of separation of means the three averages of honey yield observed are not homogeneous (P>0.05), the Apis mellifera produces 63.1 kg/hive-year, the Tetragonisca angustula obtained an average of 0.679 kg / hive-year, and Melipona beecheii obtained 13.19 kg/hive-year.
Conclusion: In the three species is observed that they have differences in the structures of the construction of their hives, their entrance, the construction of their cells, production and storage of honey and pollen, birth of queens, and method of defense; and when evaluating the average annual yield by species, by harvest, and by hives, is found that the three variables evaluated of bees are different averages of honey production.
An examination of the three districts in Algiers by Fernand Pouillon as Moorish architecture: Research on dwelling practice around the “bidonville (shantytown)” project in Algiers during the Late Colonial Period, Part 2
Authors: Matsubara Kosuke 
Published: October 2022

AbstractThe purpose of this study is to clarify the planning achievements of the three districts of Algiers by Fernand Pouillon by critically examining their characteristics as the officially advocated “Moorish architecture.” Based on the conceptualization of “Moorish architecture,” the three districts are examined in terms of their official resources and, Pouillon's autobiography “Mémoire d'un architecte” which contains his concrete spatial philosophy and planning policy. As for planning analysis, based on various primary data, the plan of each district is modified to create a base map, and then photographs of each part are compared and analyzed item by item. As a result of this research, we found that his planning theory was conceived based on his thought, and it was reflected to a certain extent in the realized space. The view from the slopes affronted by the Mediterranean Sea was liberating. The stone as principal building material was massive, the spatial organization of the square, the colonnade, and the market were organized on a small scale, the water and the planting were well equipped, and the human‐scale space and the diversity of the district were assured.
Directed and Continuous Interfacial Channels for Optimized Ion Transport in Solid‐State Electrolytes
Authors: Wang Xu , Huang Sipeng , Guo Kang , Min Yulin , Xu Qunjie 
Published: October 2022

AbstractThe traditional strategy of using polymer solid electrolyte composite fillers is extremely limited by the continuity of the organic‐inorganic interface. Herein, a new composite electrolyte is fabricated, wherein alternating layers of organic polyethylene oxide (PEO) and inorganic molybdenum trioxide (MoO3) nanobelts are prepared and then the multilayer film is rolled and sliced into disks. Compared with a similar electrolyte prepared by disordered blending, the electrolyte here has a mesoscopic continuous organic‐inorganic interface perpendicular to the electrode direction. The ionic conductivity increases from 4.88 × 10−4 to 1.16 × 10−3 S cm−1. The “interfacial battery” can operate stably over >2000 charge–discharge cycles at 2 C (60 °C), and can withstand rapid charging–discharging, even at 10 C. Theoretical calculation results show that this unique assembly method essentially eliminates the energy band gap between the PEO and MoO3 interface, and promotes lithium ion (Li+) transport. In addition, the electronic interaction between the orbital of Mo and PEO extends the lattice structure of PEO, resulting in a reduction in the crystallinity, which further improves the battery performance. This study provides a composite electrolyte design that is different from blending and represents a new strategy for the development of low‐cost superionic conductors.
