description: Several plants extracts from Mediterranean countries are traditionally employed in skin troubles both in humans and in animals. Malassezia pachydermatis is a lipophylic yeast responsible for otitis externa and dermatitis in dogs and for cutaneous and systemic disease in humans. Five mixtures of essential oils obtained from Mediterranean plants (Citrus paradisi, Salvia sclarea, Ocimum basilicum, Rosmarinus officinalis, Citrus limon, Anthemis nobilis, Lavandula hybrida and Thymus vulgaris) provided with antifungal and/or anti-inflammatory action assayed in vitro, were tested in vivo versus M. pachydermatis to treat once daily for 2 weeks 25 atopic dogs with Malassezia otitis externa. Mixture composed by C. limon 1%, S. sclarea 0,5%, R. officinalis 1%, A. nobilis 0,5% yielded excellent results in all treated dogs. Despite of clinical resolution after all treatments the number of blastospores did not decrease. This study confirms recent findings suggesting a multifactorial alternative approach for the management of canine Malassezia otitis.

description: Artemisia alba Turra (Asteraceae) is an Euro-Mediterranean plant used in Veneto (North-East of Italy) as traditional medicine for the treatment of various diseases. A. alba is a taxonomically problematic species, characterised by common polymorphism leading to a quite high variability in secondary metabolites content. Nonetheless, the phytochemical knowledge on its phytoconstituents, especially non-volatile components, is limited. In the present paper, the phytochemical composition of a tincture obtained from the aerial parts of A. alba growing in Veneto is presented. Extensive chromatographic separations led to the isolation of three new sesquiterpene derivatives, whose structures were elucidated by 1D and 2D NMR experiments and mass spectrometry. Furthermore, flavonoid composition and volatile constituents of the tincture of A. alba were preliminary studied by HPLC–MSn and GC–MS, respectively.
The Basic Education Curriculum System in Oromia Regional State of Ethiopia: Systematic Review of Literature
Creators: name: Gerba, Fayera Aboma
Publisher: name: Zenodo
Year: 2024

description: The significance of education in the socio-economic development of a nation is immense. The overall social progress of a given nation mirrors the quality of education in that country. The achievement of quality education in turn necessitates a well-developed education curriculum. The curriculum plays a pivotal role in the successful journey of education. The aim of this literature review is to analyze the problems that arise from the education curriculum with regard to the quality of basic education in the Oromia region of Ethiopia. As a result, this literature review analyzed the status of the curriculum in basic education in the Oromia region of Ethiopia. Accordingly, the literature reviewed the history, development, and status of Ethiopian education and curriculum in order to recognize the clear picture of the role of curriculum in the basic education of Oromia regional state. The review of the literature reached the idea that the adoption of western curriculum in Ethiopian and other African countries without recognizing the real life experiences of society overshadowed and hampered the successful journey of education in Ethiopia in general and in the Oromia region in particular, in addition to internal problems that hijacked the quality of education. As some scholars indicate because of its roots to both Christian and Islamic education influences Ethiopian education and its curriculum focused on memorization that lack critique and rigorous that might result in fruitful result. The educational curriculum of Oromia region is also facing some problems that should be adjusted.

description: The aim of this study was to evaluate and compare the cellular antioxidant activities of Lantana montevidensis, Lippia multiflora, and Ocimum gratissimum leaves often consumed as herbal teas in a rural area of Bandundu severely affected by konzo, which is related to oxidative damage. Consequently, dietary supplements with proven antioxidant potentialities could be of real interest to promote in this area. Phytochemical screening by TLC and HPLC-DAD of extracts revealed the presence of verbascoside as a major phenolic compound. Verbascoside in L. montevidensis and O. gratissimum is reported here for the first time. All extracts displayed high ABTS and DPPH radical-scavenging activities at the concentration range of 1–40 μg mL−1 according to order: L. multiflora > O. gratissimum > L. montevidensis. L. multiflora showed the best cellular antioxidant activity using DCFH-DA on HL-60 monocytes assay at 1–20 μg mL−1. These herbal teas may be used as nutraceuticals for their potent antioxidant activity.

Censorship and the Original Version of Tolstoy's THE RAID

description: One of the most important factors literary critics often overlook in the work of Lev Nikolaevich Tolstoy (1828- 1910) is the fact that it was subject to the censorship of the tsarist government before it was allowed to be published in Russia. This harassment lasted the entire period of Tolstoy’s writing life, and although neither he nor his family were ever imprisoned or exiled because of his world-wide fame and his close connections to the court at St. Petersburg, most of his closest associates did suffer arrest, imprisonment, and exile. His estate at Yasnaya Polyana  was raided by the tsarist police once in June of 1862 (he was not there at the time), printed copies of many of his compositions, especially the religious and philosophical ones, were seized in other raids, and he was forced to resort to underground and foreign sources to publish many of his works. But sometimes, especially early in his career, he eventually at least tacitly submitted to censorship in order to get his works published. This was especially true of his military stories, and the first one he wrote, The Raid: A Volunteer’s Story [Nabeg: rasskaz volontyora] (1852) is a prime example.

description: Reports excavation work undertaken to examine the development of this section of the medieval waterfront. It confirmed that a broad artificial platform over fifty metres wide had been created at the base of a steep river cliff through reclamation behind a sequence of successive stone waterfronts. Activity from the thirteenth to nineteenth centuries is detailed including the construction and enlargement of an L-shaped building during the fourteenth century, the construction of a new waterfront in the fifteenth century, and seventeenth-century redevelopment culminating in the construction of the Mansion House of the Corporation of Newcastle. The Mansion House was destroyed by fire in the late nineteenth century. There are details of: the pottery (thirteenth--eighteenth centuries); clay pipes; decorative plaster work; brick; floor tile; stone objects; `Coins' by R J Brickstock (188); copper alloy objects; lead and pewter; iron; and miscellaneous objects including leather fragments and a bone needle. Reports on `The animal and fish bones' by Simon J M Davis & Andrea Bullock (191--7), `The plant remains' by Jacqueline P Huntley (197--200), `Garden soils, midden deposits, landfill and ballast material' by Robert Shiel, Maureen McHugh & Mervyn Jones (200--7), and a discussion conclude proceedings.

description: The clupeomorph fish Gasteroclupea branisai Signeux, 1964 from the Late Cretaceous-Paleocene of El Molino Formation, Cayara locality, Bolivia is redescribed in detail. This South American double-armored herring is the sole member of the family Gasteroclupeidae and exhibits a unique combination of features (skull roof ornamented with fine tubercles, beryciform foramen, endopterygoid teeth, about 16–18 supraneurals, a series of 35–38 predorsal and 40 ventral scutes, median fins small and containing 12–14 rays) that clearly supports its assignment to the extinct clupeomorph order Ellimmichthyiformes. G. branisai shares a number of synapomorphies with Sorbinichthys elusivo and S. africanus (five hypurals, second hypural autogenous, distal end of the second uroneural not reaching the distal end of the first uroneural) with which it forms a monophyletic assemblage recognized herein for the first time as the new suborder Sorbinichthyoidei. The peculiar morphology of Gasteroclupea that is characterized by having an extremely deep abdominal profile, hypertrophied coracoid, and elongated pectoral fins, resembles in many aspects the body plan of extant freshwater hatchetfishes of the characiform family Gasteropelecidae, suggesting that the morphological adaptations of G. branisai can be related, at least in part, to a similar lifestyle.

description: This article presents a novel algorithm for topology optimization using an orthotropic material model. Based on the virtual work principle, mathematical formulations for effective orthotropic material properties of an element containing two materials are derived. An algorithm is developed for structural topology optimization using four orthotropic material properties, instead of one density or area ratio, in each element as design variables. As an illustrative example, minimum compliance problems for linear and nonlinear structures are solved using the present algorithm in conjunction with the moving iso-surface threshold method. The present numerical results reveal that: (1) chequerboards and single-node connections are not present even without filtering; (2) final topologies do not contain large grey areas even using a unity penalty factor; and (3) the well-known numerical issues caused by low-density material when considering geometric nonlinearity are resolved by eliminating low-density elements in finite element analyses.

description: In the present work, we report two methoxy-substituted phenyl-terpyridine ruthenium complexes with pyridine carboxyquinoline and NCS as ancillary ligands, [Ru(OMePhtpy)(pcqH)(NCS)](PF6) (1) and [Ru(triOMePhtpy)(pcqH)(NCS)](PF6) (2) (where OMePhtpy = (4′-(4-methoxy)phenyl-2,2′:6′,2″-terpyridine, triOMePhtpy = (4′-(3,4,5-trimethoxy)phenyl-2,2′:6′,2″-terpyridine and pcqH = pyridine-carboxyquinoline). Both complexes have been characterized by spectroscopic techniques e.g., mass, 1H-NMR and FTIR. UV–vis spectrophotometric and electrochemical studies for both complexes have been performed. The substitution pattern of the –OMe groups have been successfully utilized to tune the redox potential of the metal complexes. On the anodic side of cyclic voltammogram, 1 and 2 show an irreversible wave corresponding to RuII/III couple at 0.95 and 0.85 V, respectively. The lower RuII/III oxidation potential for 2 may be attributed to increased electron density on ruthenium due to three (+R) methoxy–groups appended to the phenyl moiety of triOMePhtpy. DFT optimization of structure and energy calculation reveals that in both complexes, HOMO is metal- and thiocyanate-based, whereas the LUMO is based on pcqH. Correlation of TDDFT results with experimental electronic spectrum indicates that bands at 502 nm (1) and 528 nm (2) are of MLLCT character from ruthenium-thiocyanate to pcqH.

The village originated in the 12th century or before, stagnated after c 1320 but was rebuilt possibly as late as the early 15th. Modification of longhouses into houses with byres took place under a new landowner in c 1675 and the village was abandoned c 1720. The range of early medieval pottery forms was limited. A comparative analysis of building plans given here will be set in the wider vernacular context in Part 2. F B

description: What does Koxinga mean to today's China and Taiwan? How does Wu Ziniu's film The Sino-Dutch War 1661, a 2000 mainland Chinese film about seventeenth-century Dutch Formosa–with a mainland Chinese / Hong Kong / Japanese cast–complicate the questions of belonging and betrayal?

 Taiwan's cultural identities have always been politically charged, in 1661 as in the new millennium, and film and literature have played different roles in censoring and projecting the history of colonialism and nationalism.

 One of the most important legends to emerge from this history of competing visions of Taiwanese identity is Zheng Chenggong (aka Coxinga, Lord of the Imperial Surname, or Imperial Name Keeper, 1624-1662). He has alternately been cast as a Han Chinese martyr to a lost cause to oppose the "barbaric" Manchurian rulers, a defender of Ming China's last frontier against Dutch colonizers, a deity in Taiwan, and an iconic "national" hero in Taiwan and China.

 Complete with a textual excerpt from the film's key scenes, translated by Joubin, this chapter argues that Wu's film transforms Zheng (Coxinga) from a pirate leader to a founding father who establishes Chinese control over Taiwan and liberates the Taiwanese from Dutch colonial rule. Anyone familiar with this multi-determined history would not miss its potentially dangerous political messages about today's China-Taiwan relations.

description: This article investigates how health shocks affect farm productivity in the presence of microcredit. It is expected that microcredit increases agricultural productivity by enhancing allocative and technical efficiency and by overcoming financial constraints that reduce purchase of inputs. However, microcredit will have competing uses in the event of uninsured health shocks to the household. Using an endogenous switching regression model and after accounting for self-selection, the results reveal that microcredit has a significant mitigating effect on farm productivity losses. Thus, microcredit generates a double dividend among smallholders serving as insurance against health shocks in rural areas and improving agricultural productivity.

description: Whereas most studies find the poor in Africa to be more vulnerable to bribery because of their lower socio-economic status, this paper proposes institutional differences as an alternative explanation. Because poor people are unable to afford privately provided services, they must use public services. In relying on the state more often, the poor become more vulnerable to bribery. Analyses of Afrobarometer data show that the poor are not more likely to pay bribes for state monopolised services. The poor’s disproportionate vulnerability to bribery for choice services is a function of their greater likelihood to have contact with the state.

description: The impact of colonialism and empire and then of transport, logistics, advertising, media, cinema, radio, tourism, and the internet extended the global reach of English. With 1.13 billion speakers, one in seven in the world now has some English competence. Within this global circulation of English, we have the global teaching of English language and literature, most recently captured for Britain in a June 2023 British Academy report, the relevant findings of which are the decline in the information age and under neoliberal governments of university students reading English Literature and the rise of Creative Writing and world literatures in translation. I distinguish global from world Englishes as the hegemonic language of global trade and finance from more bottom-up Englishes mixed with other languages on the streets; discuss the state of English studies globally; and propose decolonising and denationalising the curriculum. The notion of national languages, identifying a language with national unity, is a very modern idea, only about three centuries old and arising with the formation of modern nation-states. We might use the lived histories of global and world Englishes to transcend both romantic revolutionary and far-right exclusionary nationalisms in literary and language studies in favour of more cosmopolitan, multilingual, and convivial approaches.

description: Preface Initiated by Professors Olle Persson and Peter Ingwersen, bibliometric researchers in the Nordic countries have arranged annual Nordic workshops on bibliometrics since 1996. The general scope of the Nordic Workshop on Bibliometrics and Research Policy is to present recent bibliometric research in the Nordic countries, to create better linkages between the bibliometric research groups and their PhD students, and to link bibliometric research with research policy. The workshop language is English and the workshop is open to participants from any nation. The 21st Nordic Workshop on Bibliometrics and Research Policy (NWB’2016) was organized by Aalborg University (Copenhagen branch), in collaboration with University of Copenhagen and Copenhagen University Library. It was held at the University of Aalborg, in Copenhagen, on November 2-4th, 2016 with more than 100 participants. In total, we received 37 submissions. After reviewing the submissions, the program committee decided which papers were to be presented orally and which as poster presentations. 19 papers were accepted as oral presentations. These, as well as 2 invited keynote talks and 12 posters, are presented as abstracts in these proceedings. The posters and oral presentation slides are also available for viewing and peer-feedback at figshare (with citable DOIs): https://figshare.com/collections/NWB_2016_Oral_Presentations/3581192 https://figshare.com/collections/NWB_2016_Posters/3581330 We would like to thank all authors for their submissions, the session chairs and the keynote speakers, Ronald Rousseau and David Budtz Pedersen, for their contributions to the workshop, photographer Balázs Schlemmer and the student volunteers, Annika, Halle and Lejla, for their diligent efforts during the workshop. Further, we would like to thank the sponsors for their generous financial support, without which the Nordic workshops could not be organised in their current form.

subject: FOS: Political science

description: Basically this paper wishes to show that the “Case of Machiavelli” is a case which modern thought caused. Furthermore, if the relation between Enlightenment and Machiavellian thought were clearer, it must be admitted that both these two facts affect each other within circularity. Leo Strauss claims, Classical political Philosophy that is being pioneered by classics like Aristotle and Plato, bound with the political life. As a consequence, it can be said that there is a magnificent cleavage between classical and modern political philosophy. What is being meant by saying “political life”? The concept “Political life” indicates a phenomenon which includes something that provides to the humanbeing pleasure or displeasure. Ultimately, Machiavelli‟s main ideas and attitude at politics are gathering into the brief structure that contains to reject the traditional behaviours. But, the Machiavellian approachment to the Politics determines the measures of the science of politics instead of tradition of politics.

description: Performativity—how language and nonverbal communication tacitly or overtly affects social actions—is the core of all utterances and imaginative literature. Building on J. L. Austin's speech act theory, Judith Butler has developed, since the 1990s, a theory of gender performativity. It has been widely appropriated as a critical tool to understand sexuality and gender variance in the West, though the theory was not specifically created in the context of trans studies.

 This chapter examines transness through a theory of trans performativity that re-calibrates our critical capacity to understand tacit transness. Specifically, this chapter engages what might be called body-swap narratives in a global context that were not labeled as trans, including Virginia Woolf's Orlando and Sally Potter's film adaptation of it, Makoto Shinkai's film Your Name, the Wachowski Sisters' Matrix trilogy, as well as Shakespeare's Twelfth Night and Trevor Nunn's and Andy Fickman's film versions of the comedy.

 Joubin's theory of performativity hinges on the ideas that gender are social practices and interpersonal relationships that evolve over time and in different social spaces and that these practices are constituted, and sometimes undermined, by performative speech acts. Performativity destabilizes the idea of singularity and the perceived absolutism of such signifiers as gender.

 The case studies show further that trans performance can become overt or tacit over time. Actors may use certain stage practices to suppress or index transness in specific contexts. Their speech acts may be recognized or misrecognized by audiences as symbolizing or evading particular themes. In a future point in time, the actors may no longer desire that same type of legibility.

description: Basically this paper wishes to show that the “Case of Machiavelli” is a case which modern thought caused. Furthermore, if the relation between Enlightenment and Machiavellian thought were clearer, it must be admitted that both these two facts affect each other within circularity. Leo Strauss claims, Classical political Philosophy that is being pioneered by classics like Aristotle and Plato, bound with the political life. As a consequence, it can be said that there is a magnificent cleavage between classical and modern political philosophy. What is being meant by saying “political life”? The concept “Political life” indicates a phenomenon which includes something that provides to the humanbeing pleasure or displeasure. Ultimately, Machiavelli‟s main ideas and attitude at politics are gathering into the brief structure that contains to reject the traditional behaviours. But, the Machiavellian approachment to the Politics determines the measures of the science of politics instead of tradition of politics.

Les Femmes coupables dans les LAIS de Marie de France
Creators: name: Pfost, Frank

description: Les douze Lais de Marie de France, écrits au XIIe siècle par un auteur dont on connaît peu de choses,  retiennent leur renom pour maintes raisons. Ce sont des contes, des aventures, souvent merveilleuses  et fantastiques, des chevaliers errants et leurs dames au temps médiévaux lorsque la bataille épique et  continuelle entre le bien at le mal était claire et sans équivoque. Mais sur le fond des affrontements guerriers et des exploits héroïques et chevaleresques, et dans l’ambiance de l’amour courtois, le sujet  essential des Lais est mis en relief. C’est l’amour réciproque entre un homme et une femme, l’exaltation  de cet amour, et les efforts que les amants doivent exercer pour surmonter les obstacles qui s’opposent  à leur destin de vivre un vrai amour.   Donc les douze lais dans l’ensemble de Marie traitent ce sujet, mais seulement trois d’entre eux visitent le theme de la femme coupable dans la relation amoureuse entre un homme et une femme.  Dans Equitan, Bisclavret, et Chaitivel se trouvent les femmes condamnées à un sort malheureux à cause  de leurs fautes en amour, et par conséquent, de leur moralité. De plus chacune d’entre eux subit un  châtiment différent, une punition qui, selon Marie, est appropriée au crime d’amour qu’elles ont  commis.

description: Macroalgal biomass production models that capture nutrient dynamics, temperature, light and salinity are important for the design and operation of large-scale farms. The goal of this study is to understand how the nitrogen fertilizing regime, relating to dose (µM N week−1), amplitude (µM N) and duration (hours) of fertilization, affects the dynamics of nitrogen content and biomass production of Ulva sp. We hypothesize that the nitrogen fertilizing regime controls the Ulva Nitrogen Use Efficiency (NUE), defined here as the fraction of fertilizer nitrogen that is utilized and allocated to yield N, and, accordingly, also nitrogen assimilation in the biomass and the growth rate. We test this hypothesis by measuring internal nitrogen and biomass weight and by calculating NUE under various fertilization regimes in controlled photobioreactors. Based on these experimental data, we developed a biomass productivity model that predicts nitrogen and biomass dynamics temporally over three weeks of cultivation. This study highlights efficient fertilizing regimes and enables the development of a comprehensive understanding of the dynamic relationship between external N, internal N and biomass production of Ulva sp. under varying external N levels, which is important for real-world agricultural applications. This study provides a better understanding of the external N-internal N-biomass triangle leading to an improved dynamic cultivation model, enabling better control of nutrient application and biomass production in macroalgal farming for a sustainable marine bioeconomy.

description: Trial excavation in 1986 at New Bewick showed that one of eight similar cropmark features was a sunken-floored building, with loomweight fragments. This settlement was unusual, having no evidence of a palisaded enclosure or of large rectangular buildings (cf Yeavering). Some forty similar features associated with the Anglian palace site at Milfield, and others at Thirlings, are now interpreted as Grubenhauser. F B

description: Kelp aquaculture is typically a two-stage process, with an indoor nursery phase and a grow-out phase at sea. For the successful development and implementation of commercial kelp aquaculture, production of viable seeded lines in the nursery is essential. This study investigated optimal nursery conditions of three kelp species native to Tasmania, Australia: Ecklonia radiata, Lessonia corrugata, and Macrocystis pyrifera. The interactive effects of temperature (12°C, 15°C, and 18°C) and light level (~30 µmol photons s−1 m−2, and ~ 60 µmol photons s−1 m−2) on sporophyte length, sporophyte density, and contamination of spools were examined over a 34-day period. The optimal temperature and light levels were 15°C and 30 µmol photons m−2 s−1 for E. radiata, 12°C and 60 µmol photons m−2 s−1 for L. corrugata, and 12°C and 30 or 60 µmol photons m−2 s−1 for M. pyrifera. Under these optimal conditions, the mean ± SEM sporophyte lengths after 34 days were 0.60 ± 0.02 mm, 1.04 ± 0.04 mm, and 0.60 ± 0.01 mm for E. radiata, L. corrugata, and M. pyrifera, respectively. The mean ± SEM sporophyte densities for each of these three species were 15.5 ± 6.2 sporophytes cm−1 of line, 10.8 ± 5.9 sporophytes cm−1 of line, and 19.3 ± 8.1 sporophytes cm−1 of line, respectively. Contamination increased with increasing temperature and was not significantly affected by light level. This work highlights the need for a species- and ecotype-specific approach in the nursery phase to ensure successful seaweed aquaculture outcomes in new regions of cultivation.
