Intentions for Advice and Help Seeking Among Jewish and Arab Youth in Israel

Field: Social Sciences (Social Sciences)

This study dealt with advice and help-seeking intentions of Jewish and Arab youth in Israel toward family, friends, and professionals in relation to their interpersonal relationships with family and friends. The random sample consisted of 865 participants: 653 Jewish and 212 Arab youths. Four original instruments were used. The first consisted of a demographic questionnaire, the second explored help-seeking intentions, and two other questionnaires dealt with interpersonal relationships with family and friends. The two ethnic groups preferred using different sources for advice and help. Arab youth preferred formal help systems, whereas Jewish youth were more inclined to turn to parents and friends. Significant gender differences were also indicated. Explanations highlight the differences in the influence of the relationships with friends and family on help-seeking intentions. The potential implications of the findings for the development of appropriate services for different cultural groups are discussed.
Migration Processes and Policies: Some Asian Perspectives

Field: Social Sciences (Social Sciences)

This article argues that perspectives of migration as a matter of individual choice or structural coercion are limited in explaining Asian experiences in internal and international migration. Migration experiences in Asia range from early coerced and state-mediated migrations to migrations that are mostly demand-determined. A few exceptional cases, such as that of Malaysia, Indonesia's transmigration programs, and enforced migration on account of infrastructural projects, are noted. Also highlighted is migration in China before and after 1978. The Chinese path is distinct in that before market reforms, there was little rural to urban migration despite a high rate of industrialization. After 1978, rural to urban migration and urbanization increased, but was still lower compared to the rest of Asia. Whether China will go the same way as other Asian countries and how the state will respond to the challenges of increasing migration remain to be seen.
Performance and grazing behavior of growing goats supplemented with palm tree fruit

Field: Agricultural and Biological Sciences (Life Sciences)

ABSTRACT This study aimed to evaluate the performance and ingestive behavior of growing goats grazing on Tanzania guinea grass and fed diets containing 40% carnauba or tucum fruits. Twenty-one male castrated goats were distributed into three groups, one exclusively on pasture and the other two on pasture and fed diet supplemented at the level of 1.5% body weight (BW) in a completely randomized design. The intake of the supplements was obtained by difference between the amount supplied and the leftovers, with weighing performed every seven days, while pasture intake was determined using titanium dioxide (TiO2) as external indicator. Ingestive behavior was evaluated for three days. The supplement containing carnauba fruit resulted in a greater intake of neutral detergent fiber (0.137 kg NDF/day), with a reduction of 8.61% in the pasture dry matter (DM) intake of goats. Associated with the intake of pasture nutrients, the tucum fruit diet met the protein (0.103 kg CP/day) and energetic (0.547 kg TDN/day) requirements of goats with intake set at 0.124 kg CP/day and 0.572 kg TDN/day, with higher weight gain (0.111 kg/day) and larger loin eye area (12.76 cm2). The supplementation with fruits influenced the grazing behavior of goats, increasing the idle time by 1 h in relation to animals not supplemented. The supplementation of growing goats grazing on Tanzania guinea grass pasture with a diet containing 40% tucum fruit, in the proportion of 1.5% BW, did not meet the nutritional requirements for gain of 150 g/day; however, it met requirements for maintenance and average gain of 111 g/day. Energy supplementation reduces the grazing time of goats; thus, it is necessary to consider the level and formulation of supplements, with the possibility of increasing the stocking rate and productivity per unit area.
Gertrude Stein: Humanism and Its Freaks

Field: Arts and Humanities (Social Sciences)

Gertrude Stein died of cancer at 6:30 p.m. on July 27, 1946, in Paris. She had been a charismatic celebrity, at once admired and ridiculed. If the reality of her work and the memory of her life were to survive, others would now have to secure her fame. Others would now have to fasten her reputation to the wallboards of history. Dead, Stein had become a dependent. So, of course, will we all. Yet few of us are as freakish as Stein. She accepted some of the demanding precepts of Western humanism. Her ruptures, though, were many and audacious-with the conventions that governed language, rhetoric, and genre; gender and sexuality; and perceptions of time and space.' She braced, and often embraced, her streaks and irregularities with an antic cheerfulness. Inevitably, her defiances were more notable, and noticeable, than her acceptances. She was, then, a peculiar case for the various parliaments that pass, and pass on, the laws of formal, institutional memory. The legislating of Stein's posthumous reputations, of this peculiar case, has been, and is, more than example of the play between the agents of that memory and the individual talent. It has been, and is, more than material for practitioners of reception theory and students of canon formation.2 The process of saying who Stein is, if anyone, and what she means, if anything, has proceeded as post-
Ultrasound-guided transvaginal procedures

Field: Medicine (Health Sciences)

Transvaginal ultrasound revolutionized the practice of obstetrics and gynecology in the past decade. Its 'port of entry' was its application in the diagnostic, as well as the technical and therapeutic aspects, in the reproductive aspects of infertility. This review summarizes the advances made by the continual improvement of equipment, and the ingenious use of different punctures guided by transvaginal sonography in the important area of reproductive technologies.
Documenting Indigenous Identity in the Internet Era: Lessons from the Composition of Narrawong Town Social Profile in Victoria, Australia

Field: Social Sciences (Social Sciences)

Together with the process of globalization, the advancement of the Internet has created an easy access for researchers to conduct document analysis, which is a low-cost and time-efficient way to gain information about a certain topic. Nevertheless, the resources available on mainstream media mostly come from the Western world, especially the United States. Meanwhile, there are also other sources of knowledge that are inherited within indigenous communities. Reflecting on the experience of composing the community profile of Narrawong, a small town in regional Victoria, Australia, which traditionally belongs to the Gunditjmara people, the author found it challenging to prevent the bias of “modern” information. This bias is due to the limitations in studying the town’s indigenous identity using document analysis as a single method. Coming from this experience, the author explored and analyzed alternative ways in which indigenous knowledge can be documented, such as through interactive maps and public use of traditional language. The author also identified barriers to implementing similar efforts, namely the social structure within indigenous communities and different worldviews held by researchers and communities they work with. The author concludes that in doing documentation process, indigenous communities have to be involved in fruitful dialogues so that both the extraction of knowledge and empowerment of indigenous communities can be achieved. This paper is an important resource for those aiming to work on indigenous knowledge documentation.
Semiclassical environment of collapsing shells

Field: Physics and Astronomy (Physical Sciences)

We explore in detail the semiclassical environment of collapsing shells of matter, and determine the semiclassical flux measured by a variety of observers. This study is a preliminary step in a broader investigation of thermodynamic properties of the geometry of collapsing objects. Specifically, in this paper we consider spherically symmetric null and timelike collapsing shells which form an event horizon, and calculate the flux measured by observers both inside and outside the shell, and both inside and outside the event horizon, and find nontrivial results in most of the cases. Additionally, we also investigate the environment of a shell which collapses but \emph{does not} form a horizon, halting at some radius larger than the Schwarzschild radius, and find that such an object generically gives rise to a pulse of radiation which is sharply peaked as it travels inwards and is reflected at the origin, and eventually emerges from the shell in a "thermalized" form. Our results have potential consequences in addressing questions pertaining, e.g. to black hole entropy and backreaction.

Deep Learning for Classification of Profit-Based Operating Regions in Industrial Processes

Field: Computer Science (Physical Sciences)

A classification approach is proposed for finding ranges of process inputs that result in corresponding ranges of a process profit function using deep learning. Two deep learning tools are used to formulate models for use in classification, based on either supervised learning or unsupervised learning approaches. The supervised learning models are based on long short-term memory networks and multilayer perceptron networks while the unsupervised learning model consists of an autoencoder neural network connected to a support vector machine classifier. An algorithm referred to as sequential layer-wise relevance propagation for pruning (SLRPFP) is proposed and applied to the aforementioned models for selecting relevant inputs and for pruning the neural networks and its inputs such that the test accuracy at every step of the proposed sequential algorithm is maintained or even improved. It is also shown that the selected inputs from the proposed algorithm (SLRPFP) provide important process insights on the productivity, that is, the profit-based objective function. The approaches are illustrated for the Tennessee Eastman Process (TEP) and for an industrial vaccine manufacturing process (industrial process). The efficacy of the proposed supervised and unsupervised deep learning approaches over linear model-based classification methods that are based on linear dynamic principal component analysis combined with multiclass support vector machines classification is shown by comparing the performances of both a TEP and a vaccine manufacturing process.
In search of leisure time: An endogenous growth model with leisure services

Field: Economics, Econometrics and Finance (Social Sciences)

Abstract Starting from the Ladrón‐de Guevara et al.’s framework, we develop a model with an additional sector for the production of leisure services. By introducing consumption of leisure services as a time‐consuming activity, our model generalizes the standard time allocation problem whereby total available time can be allocated between work, education, free time and leisure activities. We analytically characterize the balanced growth paths of the model, particularly in terms of time allocation and growth. Our comparative analysis of different service economies assumed at equilibrium includes the case of an industrial economy without a service sector and the potential multiple equilibria of such an economy.
Social distance portrayed: television news in Japan and the UK

Field: Arts and Humanities (Social Sciences)

The potential of the camera framing, or shot-size, semiotic resource to encode meanings related to social distance has been recognized for some time. This study seeks to bring this resource into the remit of systematic analysis. Data are taken from screen measurements of portrayals of social actors in news programming produced by two national broadcasters, NHK in Japan and the BBC in the UK. Results for these two media outlets are compared and an attempt made to place the results in a meaningful cultural context. Analysis focuses on NHK’s images and the less familiar Japanese media system.
PCEP Procedures and Protocol Extensions for Using PCE as a Central Controller (PCECC) for Segment Routing (SR) MPLS Segment Identifier (SID) Allocation and Distribution.

Field: Computer Science (Physical Sciences)

The Path Computation Element (PCE) is a core component of Software-
Defined Networking (SDN) systems. It can compute optimal paths for
traffic across a network and can also update the paths to reflect
changes in the network or traffic demands. PCE was developed to
derive paths for MPLS Label Switched Paths (LSPs), which are supplied
to the head end of the LSP using the Path Computation Element
Communication Protocol (PCEP). But SDN has a broader applicability
than signaled (G)MPLS traffic-engineered (TE) networks, and the PCE
may be used to determine paths in a range of use cases. PCEP has been
proposed as a control protocol for use in these environments to allow
the PCE to be fully enabled as a central controller. A PCE-based
Central Controller (PCECC) can simplify the processing of a
distributed control plane by blending it with elements of SDN and
without necessarily completely replacing it. Thus, the LSP can be
calculated/set up/initiated and the label forwarding entries can also
be downloaded through a centralized PCE server to each network device
along the path while leveraging the existing PCE technologies as much
as possible. This document specifies the procedures and PCEP
extensions when a PCE-based controller is also responsible for
configuring the forwarding actions on the routers, in addition to
computing the paths for packet flows in a segment routing (SR) network
and telling the edge routers what instructions to attach to packets as
they enter the network. PCECC is further enhanced for SR SID (Segment
Identifier) allocation and distribution.
A BLAUTH IIIB HYPOPLASTIC THUMB RECONSTRUCTED WITH A VASCULARISED METATARSO-PHALANGEAL JOINT TRANSFER: A CASE REPORT WITH 28 YEARS OF FOLLOW UP

Field: Medicine (Health Sciences)

We reconstructed the Blauth-IIIB hypoplastic right thumb of a 16-year-old girl with a vascularised metatarso-phalangeal (MTP) joint from her second toe combined with a dorsalis-pedis flap. Abduction was provided with an abductor policis long tendon advancement, and adduction, with an extensor indicis proprius tendon transfer. Opponoplasty was performed one year later using the flexor sublimis (IV) tendon. The transferred joint remained functional and non-osteoarthritic 28 years later. Radial and palmar abduction of the reconstructed thumb was 45° and 75° respectively. The index, middle, and ring fingers could oppose the thumb, however she grasped small objects between her index and middle fingertips. If a pollicisation using the index finger is not accepted, the reconstruction described here is one of the surgical options. However donor-foot morbidity is not negligible. Currently, we use a proximal-interphalangeal joint transfer with an opponoplasty using an abductor digiti minimi as a first choice, when planning a reconstruction of preserved hypoplasic thumb.
Forced Online and Distance Learning (ODL) During COVID-19 Pandemic: Revealing Students’ Perceptions and Experiences

Field: Health Professions (Health Sciences)

: The emergence of COVID-19 pandemic has forced educational institutions to change and adapt to ODL. This is to avoid disruption to students' education and study plans. However, the forced actions resulted in mixed reactions from students and educators. Both parties were not ready and anticipated difficulties in executing forced ODL. Problems faced include internet connectivity, inadequate learning devices and lack of skills during the implementation of full ODL. This study was conducted to assess perceptions and experiences (i.e. challenges, advantages and disadvantages) of ODL among Diploma in Pharmacy students. Data were obtained through a cross-sectional survey through online questionnaires. Questionnaires which consisted of demographic, perspectives and experiences towards ODL were distributed using WhatsApp and email. A total of 262 respondents (209 females and 53 males) completed the questionnaires. Majority of the students (94.3%) chose to study at home and used both mobile phones (92.4%) and laptops (96.2%) for ODL. Most students preferred ODL because of convenience (83.6%) whilst reduced concentration (80.9%) and poor internet connection (76.3%) were among the challenges encountered. Most frequently used digital platforms include UFUTURE (98.9%), Microsoft Teams (94.3%) and Google Classroom (89.7%). Likewise, live video conferencing (72.1%), pre-recorded videos (67.2%) and videos from online sources (59.5%) were among the most used type of delivery modes by lecturers. Our findings may help to strengthen the understanding of current ODL implementation and teaching processes. Results from this study will assist in improving various aspects of ODL to increase its effectiveness and efficiency for students' learning.

Underutilized Grasses Production: New Evolving Perspectives

Field: Agricultural and Biological Sciences (Life Sciences)

Globally, over-reliance on major food crops (wheat, rice and maize) has led to food basket’s shrinking, while climate change, environmental pollution and deteriorating soil fertility demand the cultivation of less exhaustive but nutritious grasses. Unlike neglected grasses (grass species restricted to their centres of origin and only grown at the subsistence level), many underutilized grasses (grass species whose yield or usability potential remains unrealized) are resistant and resilient to abiotic stresses and have multiple uses including food (Coix lacryma-jobi), feed (Eragrostis amabilis and Cynodon dactylon), esthetic value (Miscanthus sinensis and Imperata cylindrica), renewable energy production (Spartina pectinata and Andropogon gerardii Vitman) and contribution to ecosystem services (Saccharum spontaneum). Lack of agricultural market globalization, urbanization and prevalence of large commercial enterprises that favor major grasses trade, improved communication means that promoted specialization in favor of established crops, scant planting material of underutilized grasses and fewer research on their production technology and products development are the prime challenges posed to underutilized grasses promotion. Integration of agronomic research with novel plant protection measures and plant breeding and molecular genetics approaches for developing biotic and abiotic stresses tolerant cultivars along with the development of commercially attractive food products hold the future key for promoting underutilized grasses for supplanting food security and sustainably multiplying economic outcomes.
Measles antibody in the children in Ubon Ratchathani province.

Field: Medicine (Health Sciences)

Measles is a highly contagious disease, preventable by vaccine. Measles epidemics have been dramatically controlled since the introduction of live attenuated measles vaccine. Measles antibody is used as an indicator of previous natural infection or vaccination, and also as a marker of protective immunity. The authors determined measles IgG levels in 1,176 children in Ubon Ratchathani province by ELISA from September 1998 to January 1999. Two- hundred and sixty- five cases (22.5%) had antibodies below the protective level (< 320 mIU/ml). Antibodies were high during the neonatal period, then declined to below the protective level at 4-6 months of age, and were negative at age 7-11 months. An increase in antibody level after 1 year old might be the result of measles immunization at 9-12 months of age, then antibodies decreased to the lowest level at 3-5 years after immunization or 4-6 years of age. A second dose of immunization will increase the number of children who have antibodies above the protective level better than one dose of immunization and it is recommended to revaccinate at 4-6 years of age. There was no statistical difference of measles antibody between boys and girls in all age groups.
Stability and Variable Admittance Control in the Physical Interaction with a Mobile Robot

Field: Engineering (Physical Sciences)

Admittance controllers have been widely implemented in physical human/robot interaction (pHRI). The stability criteria and the parameter adaptation methods for admittance control have been well-studied. However, the established methods have mainly focused on human/manipulator interaction, and cannot be directly extended to mobile robot-based pHRI, in which the nonlinearity cannot be cancelled by feedback linearizations and the measurements of the relative human/robot position and orientation are usually lacking. In this paper, we study the pHRI between a human user and a mobile robot under admittance control. We develop a robotic system which can measure the relative chest/ankle positions of the human user with respect to the robot. Using the measured human position, a human frame admittance controller is proposed to remove the nonlinearity in the system dynamics. Based on the human-frame admittance control, a stability criterion is derived. By using a human arm stiffness estimator along with the derived stability criterion, a stiffness-based variable admittance controller is designed. The effectiveness of the proposed methods in improving the pHRI performance is tested and supported by simulations and experimental results.
Integrated Multiport DC-DC and Multilevel Converters for Multiple Renewable Energy Source Integration

Field: Engineering (Physical Sciences)

This research introduces an innovative converter system which has been developed to seamlessly incorporate multiple sources of renewable energy into both DC and AC grids. The integration of multiple energy sources is made possible through the utilization of a unique converter system that combines a multiport DC converter topology with a multilevel inverter topology, while maintaining a low component count and hence increased overall power density and efficiency for the proposed converter system. Unlike previous literature, where each energy source needs a separate DC converter and a two-level converter is used for DC to AC conversion, this converter system features buck-boost operation, superior power quality characteristics, and fewer components. The system suggests the implementation of a DC link voltage balancing technique that relies on an auxiliary circuit to achieve equilibrium in the voltage on the DC link, as a possible substitute to the more complicated control-based balancing scheme. The operational integrity of the converter system is assessed through rigorous numerical simulations and experimentally validated using OPAL-RT’s OP5700 hardware-in-the-loop (HIL) implementation platform as well as an in-house experimental test setup.
