description: The ectoparasitic mite Varroa destructor is an important cause of high colony losses of the honey bee Apis mellifera. In The Netherlands, two resistant A. mellifera populations developed naturally after ceasing varroa control. As a result, mite infestation levels of the colonies of these populations are generally between 5–10%. However, the mechanisms behind mite resistance are still unclear. Since grooming behavior is a typical resistance trait that occurs in A. mellifera, we compared grooming between colonies of these two resistant populations and control colonies that had been treated against varroa twice a year in previous years. Grooming was investigated by measuring mite fall in broodless colonies in the field and in small cages with a fixed number of mites and bees in the lab. Furthermore, grooming was investigated at the individual level by measuring the effectiveness to remove dust by individual bees from the resistant and control colonies. We found that the grooming behavior of resistant colonies was unexpectedly equally or even less effective than that of control colonies. These results were supported by the effectiveness of individual bees to remove dust. Based on our results, we discuss that the trigger for grooming behavior may be density-dependent: grooming may be only beneficial at high mite infestation levels. Other resistance mechanisms than grooming are more likely to explain the varroa resistance of our two populations.

description: The present study explores the deconstruction concepts of relevance to literary translation in order to lay the foundation for an adequate translation approach. It seeks to make of the translation of literary texts satisfactory through engaging the cultural, communicative, aesthetic, and performative aspects of language. While analyzing the existing Arabic translations of Shakespeare's Hamlet, it benchmarks those versions against the deconstructive tenets to evaluate their adequacy and acceptability. The researcher makes a practical use of the approach he endorses to suggest the best alternative Arabic translation by which the raised issues are all addressed, and thus the source literary experience can be transcreated into the target language.

description: Managed honey bee colony losses are of concern in the USA and globally. This survey, which documents the rate of colony loss in the USA during the 2015–2016 season, is the tenth report of winter losses, and the fifth of summer and annual losses. Our results summarize the responses of 5725 valid survey respondents, who collectively managed 427,652 colonies on 1 October 2015, an estimated 16.1% of all managed colonies in the USA. Responding beekeepers reported a total annual colony loss of 40.5% [95% CI 39.8–41.1%] between 1 April 2015 and 1 April 2016. Total winter colony loss was 26.9% [95% CI 26.4–27.4%] while total summer colony loss was 23.6% [95% CI 23.0–24.1%], making this the third consecutive year when summer losses have approximated to winter losses. Across all operation types, 32.3% of responding beekeepers reported no winter losses. Whilst the loss rate in the winter of 2015–2016 was amongst the lowest winter losses recorded over the ten years this survey has been conducted, 59.0% (n = 3378) of responding beekeepers had higher losses than they deemed acceptable.

description: Exposure to traffic emission is harmful to human health. Emission inventories are essential to public health policies aiming at protecting human health, especially in areas with incomplete or nonexistent air pollution monitoring networks. In Brazil, for example, only 1.7% of municipal districts have a monitoring network, and only a few studies have reported data on vehicle emission inventories. No studies have presented emission inventories by municipality. In this study, we predicted vehicular emissions for 5570 municipal districts in Brazil during the period 2001–2012. We used a top-down method to estimate emissions. Carbon dioxide (CO2) is the pollutant with the highest emissions, with approximately 190 million tons per year during the period 2001–2012). For the other traffic-related pollutants, we predicted annual emissions of 1.5 million tons for carbon monoxide (CO), 1.2 million tons of nitrogen oxides (NOx), 209,000 tons of nonmethane hydrocarbons (NMHC), 58,000 tons of particulate matter (PM), and 42,000 tons for methane (CH4). From 2001 to 2012, CO, NMHC, and PM emissions decreased by 41, 33, and 47%, respectively, whereas those CH4, NOx, and CO2 increased by 2, 4, and 84%, respectively. We estimated uncertainties in our study and found that NOx was the pollutant with the lowest percentage difference, 8%, and NMHC with the highest one, 30%. For CO, CH4, CO2, and PM, the values were 22, 14, 21, and 20%, respectively. Finally, we found that during 2001 and 2012 emissions increased in the Northwest and Northeast. In contrast, pollutant emissions, except for CO2, decreased in the Southeast, South, and part of Midwest. Our predictions can be critical to efforts developing cost-effective public policies tailored to individual municipal districts in Brazil. Implications: Emission inventories may be an alternative approach to provide data for air quality forecasting in areas where air quality data are not available. This approach can be an effective tool in developing spatially resolved emission inventories.

description: Solid particle erosion of polymer matrix composites is a complex process in which wear occurs from the target surface by impingement of rigid sand particles in an air medium. The rate of material removal (RMR), also referred to as the erosion rate, mainly depends on target material parameters and the erosion conditions such as impact angle, impact velocity, and erodent size. A new semi-empirical model for prediction of the erosion rate of polymer matrix composites has been developed using a dimensional analysis technique based on Buckingham's π theorem. The predictive model analytically rests upon parameters related to chopped glass fiber composites, erodent (target material properties), and operating variables that mainly affect the erosion process of chopped glass fiber–vinyl ester resin composites. The forecasting ability of the predictive model has been assessed and verified by experimental investigations for chopped glass fiber–reinforced vinyl ester resin (VGF) composites. Validation of the theoretical erosion rates obtained from the predictive model showed that they were in good agreement with the experimentally determined erosion rates, where the average error range was estimated to be ∼10 to ∼20%.

description: This study aims to address the issues of translation as a cultural phenomenon and an artistic and strategic skill to connect the peoples of the world to each other, because of the human, living, civilizational and cultural commonalities between them at various levels. It has become difficult to ignore the universality of translation and its important status, and the tremendous and rapid developments it has undergone for the better. From its historical synopsis and through the development of its theories, such as the theories of Jacobson, Halliday, Catford, Nida, George Steiner, Jean Rune-Rademiral, and others. In this study, the researcher attempted to describe and analyze the phenomenon of the diversity of translation, its developments, and some of its theories, based on the problem that we formulate as follows: What about modern translation, its types, arts, skills, and theories? What are the latest developments in it? Through this research paper, the researcher discussed some types of translation and focused on the cultural dimension, skill, and theories such as Nida’s theory. The research reached a number of results, and the goal is to enrich the translation library with this type of studies.

description: This study focuses on Libyan EFL tutors’ beliefs towards using audio-visual aids within lectures in teaching English language at a Libyan university. The aims of the current study are to explore Libyan EFL tutors’ perceptions on the use of audio-visual aids in teaching and to investigate the challenges that may face in using audio-visual aids. It is a qualitative study because 15 Libyan EFL tutors are chosen purposively (i.e hand-picked for purpose) in order to gain in-depth understanding to their perceptions and perspectives with regard to audio-visual aids. The methods that are used to collect data are semi-structured interview and observation. Thematic analysis is used to analyse the data into codes and themes. The findings reveal that the majority of the participants have positive beliefs on using audio-visual aids. They indicate that audio-visual aids contribute to increase students’ understanding and comprehension, motivate students and make the lecture more interesting, and develop cultural awareness. The findings also show that few participants have little awareness of the effective role of audio-visual aids as they perceive the traditional methods of teaching as fair enough to convey their knowledge to their students. Moreover, the results reveal that limited resources and insufficient staff development workshops are the main challenges that effect on using audio-visual aids adversely.

Κατά τις διαβουλεύσεις στις οποίες προσήλθαν μέλη από όλα τα κοινωνικά στρώματα προτάθηκε η σύσταση πρεσβείας αντιπροσώπων που θα ζητούσε την ανάκληση των μέτρων ενώπιον του δούκα. Όσο η κρίση του δούκα καθυστερούσε, ο πληθυσμός του Ουρμπίνο προετοίμαζε το έδαφος για μια ενδεχόμενη αντεπίθεση στα δουκικά στρατεύματα καταστολής. Χάρη στην παρέμβαση του πάπα σημειώθηκε σημαντική αποκλιμάκωση: οι εξεγερθέντες ζήτησαν συγγνώμη και ο δούκας τούς έδωσε χάρη, αφού πρώτα πραγματοποίησε στοχευμένες ενέργειες για την επαναφορά της έννομης τάξης.

description: Venous thromboembolic disease is a major cause of morbidity in cancer patients. The Perspective database was used to identify patients with solid tumors and a diagnosis of VTE from 2006 to 2012. We examined use of IVC filters, thrombolysis, and thrombectomy. Among 32,545 patients, 23.1% received an IVC filter, 1.9% thrombolytic therapy, and 0.4% underwent thrombectomy. Use of IVC filters decreased between 2006 and 2012 (23.4% to 21.2%, p = 0.012). Older patients, uninsured patients, Hispanics, and those with more comorbidities were more likely to undergo filter placement while patients at rural hospitals were less likely to receive an IVC filter (p < 0.05 for all).

description: This study sought to explore how young women and men in slums survived through the use of social capital. The study specifically focused on establishing the kind of social capital used and the gendered use of social capital among young females and males and partners involved in the survival of young people. The study was qualitative in nature. Unstructured interviews, non-participant observation and document analysis methods were used to collect data. This research was conducted in Katanga slum situated in Kampala district. The results show that all three major forms of social capital were used by young women and men in Katanga slum for survival. The bonding, linking and bridging forms of social capital were utilized to have income generating activities.  Linking social capital, however, was to  a large extent missing among young women, due to a number of reasons including, lack of collateral security, limited time due to triple roles, poor information flow on economic issues among women which greatly affects their wellbeing and consequently local economic development.  Therefore bottle necks to women’s full participation in local development initiatives should be addressed by local authorities like local councils, government and Non-governmental organizations.  The study is  therefore relevant to social workers especially those working in slum areas and local councils  in promoting social capital building as a catalyst to job creation  and resource,  availability.

description: Throughout our entire evolutionary history, the physical environment has played a significant role in shaping humans’ subsistence adaptations. As early humans began to colonise novel biomes and construct ecological niches, their behavioural flexibility appeared as an unquestionable fact. During the Late Pleistocene-Holocene transition, the shift from foraging to farming radically altered ecosystem services, resulting in increased exposure to zoonotic pathogens and the emergence of structural inequalities that pervade our current human condition in the Anthropocene epoch. The article seeks to use an anthropological biosocial analysis to explore the diverse evolutionary paths humans have taken, which in turn shape their relationships with the natural world. Given the enigmatic nature of human behavior, it is essential to examine it holistically to understand how different subsistence patterns (e.g., intensive agriculture, foraging, and horticulture) have influenced resilience and adaptation to environmental challenges.

description: Digital evidence is playing an increasingly important role in the Indian legal system. However, there are a number of challenges associated with digital evidence preservation and integrity, which can make it difficult to use digital evidence in court. This paper explores the challenges of digital evidence preservation and integrity in India, and discusses some of the ways in which these challenges can be overcome. The paper begins by discussing the volatility of digital evidence, which makes it easily susceptible to alteration or destruction. The paper also discusses the volume and complexity of digital evidence, which can make it difficult to store and manage in a secure and reliable manner. The paper then goes on to discuss the challenges to digital evidence integrity. These challenges include intentional tampering by criminals, accidental corruption by human error or software or hardware failures, and the lack of a robust digital evidence management system. The paper concludes by discussing some of the ways in which the challenges of digital evidence preservation and integrity can be overcome. These steps include having a clear and comprehensive digital evidence preservation policy in place, using appropriate digital evidence preservation tools and techniques, training personnel on the proper collection, preservation, and analysis of digital evidence, and having a robust digital evidence management system in place.

description: This thesis is about Aceh, Indonesia, the Northernmost province in Indonesia with special autonomous rights to implement Islamic law, better known as shari’a. It examines the discursive practice of the implementation of shari’a in Aceh, regarding how men and women should behave. This research is based on ethnographic fieldwork conducted from August 2016 to February 2017 in Aceh, Indonesia. In analysing the data, this thesis is informed by constructivist grounded theory and critical discourse analysis. This research found that local shari’a codification regulates people in various aspects, from public appearance, religiosity, morality and behaviour, as well as mobility and sexuality. It argues that the law is constructed within a patriarchal interpretation and it regulates women more than men. The finding also highlights the local shari’a regulations are aimed at creating what Foucault referred to as the “docile body”, in which the government, through the law and its various shari’a institutions, has set certain norms to regulate and control people as well as monitor the practice of shari’a to ensure their obedience. Aceh’s shari’a also regulates various forms of penalties, including public caning. This research illuminates how this punishment reproduces and sustains the concept of masculinity and gender hierarchy. The discourse of shari’a application in Aceh constitutes expressions of masculinity and femininity and sexuality. This thesis argues this local codified version of shari’a promotes the idea of a unified standard model of femininity, in particular how women should be dressed in public. This thesis also provides alternative views of women’s agency. Agency here is not only seen as a form of resistance, it also considers how women negotiate all the regulations and patriarchal values, but at the same time they create space to destabilise, construct and re construct these norms.

description: Introduction The first case of Coronavirus Disease (COVID-19) in Malaysia was reported on the 25th of January 20201. Basic epidemiology remains the cornerstone of identifying the distribution of diseases, and the source of an infection. This study aims to describe the epidemiological characteristics of the first 1,375 positive cases of COVID-19 reported in the state of Selangor, Malaysia. Materials and Methods All laboratory confirmed positive cases of COVID-19, based on RT-PCR testing from Nasopharyngeal Swabs reported in Selangor up to 25th of April 2020 were included. The epidemic curve was based on the date of onset of symptoms, or their date of exposure for asymptomatic patients. A second plot was done based on the date of onset, asymptomatic cases based on date of exposure plus median incubation period. Results 1375 positive COVID-19 cases were reported in Selangor. The mean age was 38•6 ± 18•3 years. • 36•4% of patients were asymptomatic. Fever (66•1%), and cough (56•0%) being the most common symptoms. The median incubation period was 6 (IQR: 3 – 10) days. Discussion Screening based on symptoms is inadequate in capturing all cases in the community. • Limiting human-to-human transmission remains crucial in containing this disease. This supports the findings of modelling studies which predicted a decline to occur two weeks after travel restrictions.

description: Introduction Globally, 1 in 10 of all people are living with Hepatitis B. Hepatitis B is still prevalent especially in less developing countries. The incidence rates of HBV infection in Malaysia were constant over the years and projected to continually increased until 2050. The study aimed to describe the prevalence of Hepatitis B surface antigen (HBsAg) among population from the Malaysian cohort and factors associated with HBsAg seropositivity. Materials and Methods We utilized data and serum samples of subjects from the Malaysian Cohort (TMC) involving 1,458 participants aged 35 years old recruited between 2007 and 2012. •Sample size was calculated using a single proportion formula for a prevalence study (Prevalence of 2.5%) with Neyman allocation for stratified sampling. Serological testing for Hepatitis B 5 ml venous blood collected from each participant into a dry tube. Blood samples were centrifuged at 3000 rpm for 10 mins at 4°C to separate the serum. Serum were aliquoted into cryotubes containing 500 microliters each and stored at -80 °C. Presence of hepatitis B surface antigen (HBsAg) were tested by chemiluminescence immunoassay (Roche Diagnostic, Germany) on the Cobas analyser. Equivocal results were retested using a sample from another cryotube of the same individual. Detection of HBsAg was considered indicative of chronic HBV infection. Data Analysis Descriptive analysis including prevalence of Hepatitis B (HBsAg) was described by sociodemographic characteristics. Multivariate logistic regression was used to investigate associations between putative risk factors and seropositivity of HBsAg adjusting for other confounding factors. Final parameter estimates were obtained from the fitted multivariable model including all selected risk factors. Parameter estimates were expressed as odds ratios (OR) with 95% confidence interval (CI). Results [Refer to Poster]. Discussion / Conclusion The prevalence of HBsAg in Malaysia was 3.64%. Early screening and testing could prevent the transmission in the family and community. Future research on social and behaviour risk factors could further reduce the number of Hepatitis infection in community.

description: Decentralization has become a key component of contemporary development policy and practice. Its basic notion is simply the withdrawal of the state. As such, several programmes and projects are working on transforming these thoughts into solid practices. Nevertheless, translating theory into everyday practice poses a huge challenge. Drawing on ethnographic research in northern Ghana, I seek to question the mainstream views on decentralization that local level institutions can be intentionally fashioned to enroll the participation of marginalized and vulnerable groups, including women and people with reduced mobility in decision-making concerning natural resource management. The study uses institutional economics to complement social science discourse to analyze the impact of decentralization on NRM, sustainability and gender relation. I ask: How do decentralization reforms modify the balance of power between public administration in charge of land administration, customary authorities, and resource end-users? How is it to be explained that, paradoxically, the decentralization of the formalization of rights in artisanal and small-scale mining (ASM) has promoted informal ASM leading to a negative impact on social, economic, and environmental sustainability? How do intersectional gendered power relations in mining communities of Ghana impact on women’s access to power and ability to transform patriarchal social structures? I used focus group discussions, expert interviews, semi-structured household interviews, participant observation and transect walk. This enabled for the collection of in-depth insights of rich data for further interpretation and analysis. I demonstrate in this dissertation that decentralization–presented by governments and many scholars–as merely organizational and technical, hides its political and ideological dimensions. Although, decentralization reforms are unlikely to unleash passions, I demonstrate that decentralization initiatives aimed at empowering local actors and improve democratic decision-making lead to the emergence of diverse and often unexpected dynamics that are quite different from the original policy intentions. These ground realities highlight that decentralization provides both opportunities and constraints leading to the emergence of few winners and many losers. The huge challenge for decentralization, therefore, is to circumnavigate the thin line between the creation of inclusive room for local citizens’ participation in decision-making, and the risk of fueling social exclusion and further marginalization by the very intention of re-distributing power.
