GLOCALIZATION APPROACHES IN LANGUAGE AND MEDIA IN LIBRARY INFORMATION SYSTEMS: AN IMPACT ANALYSIS ON USER ENGAGEMENT

Field: Social Sciences (Social Sciences)

The emergence of the concept of glocalization is a process of adaptation of global products to local markets and cultures. Glocalization significantly influences the quality of the community's political, economic, social, and cultural life to foster innovations in information from various contexts. As one of the information provider institutions, the library has a role in balancing and providing facilities for the information needs of both local and global communities, such as information systems to the community to increase regional productivity using technology. This study intends to identify the principles of the glocalization approach in language and media in library information systems, analyze the most effective strategies to integrate global elements of local values through library information systems, as well as the impact of user engagement to minimize user linguistic challenges in the concept of glocalization in their services with a focus on adapting language diversity in various media. This research is based on the idea of glocalization with the principles of inclusion and accessibility in the information system of a library. This study uses a descriptive qualitative method with a case study approach. Data was collected through interviews with librarians, library user surveys, participatory observations, and library information system usage analysis. A case study was conducted at the Dinas Perpustakaan dan Kearsipan Kota Surakarta, explaining the impact of globalization on library systems and services. The results showed that glocalization approaches in language and media in library information systems significantly impact users' linguistic challenges. Libraries can develop innovations regarding information systems by applying the principle of glocalization, such as language adjustments in the user interface, as well as the use of media by local preferences.
Parental Anxiety and Math Engagement: A Moderated Mediation Model of Math Anxiety and Perceived Teacher Support

Field: Psychology (Social Sciences)

ABSTRACT Students' engagement in math is essential for enhancing the effectiveness of math instruction. Previous studies examined the factors influencing math engagement, including parents, teachers, and students, however, few conducted a joint analysis of these variables. This study aimed to investigate the effects of these variables on math engagement by developing a moderated mediation model. A total of 1178 high school students and their primary caregiver (either father or mother) were involved in this study. The findings revealed the following: (1) Parental anxiety does not act as a direct predictor of math engagement; (2) Math anxiety fully mediates the relationship between parental anxiety and math engagement; and (3) Perceived teacher support does not significantly moderate the relationships between parental anxiety and math engagement or between parental anxiety and math anxiety. However, it does have a moderating effect on the relationship between math anxiety and math engagement. These results suggest that enhancing teacher support in math education may effectively reduce math anxiety and subsequently increase students' engagement in math.
SH2835607.08FU

Field: Biochemistry, Genetics and Molecular Biology (Life Sciences)

UNITE provides a unified way for delimiting, identifying, communicating, and working with DNA-based Species Hypotheses (SH). All fungal ITS sequences in the international nucleotide sequence databases are clustered to approximately the species level by applying a set of dynamic distance values (<0.5 - 3.0%). All species hypotheses are given a unique, stable name in the form of a DOI, and their taxonomic and ecological annotations are verified through distributed, web-based third-party annotation efforts. SHs are connected to a taxon name and its classification as far as possible (phylum, class, order, etc.) by taking into account identifications for all sequences in the SH. An automatically or manually designated sequence is chosen to represent each such SH. These sequences are released (https://unite.ut.ee/repository.php) for use by the scientific community in, for example, local sequence similarity searches and next-generation sequencing analysis pipelines. The system and the data are updated automatically as the number of public fungal ITS sequences grows.
Mutational diversity and hot spots in the alpha-sarcoglycan gene in autosomal recessive muscular dystrophy (LGMD2D).

Field: Biochemistry, Genetics and Molecular Biology (Life Sciences)

Sarcoglycanopathies are a genetically heterogeneous group of autosomal recessive muscular dystrophies in which the primary defect may reside in any of the genes coding for the different partners of the sarcolemmal sarcoglycan (SG) complex: the alpha-SG (LGMD2D at 17q21.2), the beta-SG (LGMD2E at 4q12), the gamma-SG (LGMD2C at 13q12), and the delta-SG (LGMD2F at 5q33). We report a series of 20 new unrelated families with 14 different mutations in the alpha-SG gene. Along with the mutations that we previously reported this brings our cohort of patients with alpha-sarcoglycanopathy to a total of 31 unrelated patients, carrying 25 different mutations. The missense mutations reside in the extracellular domain of the protein. Five of 15 missense mutations, carried by unrelated subjects on different haplotype backgrounds and of widespread geographical origins, account for 58% of the mutated chromosomes, with a striking prevalence of the R77C substitution (32%). The severity of the disease varies strikingly and correlates at least in part with the amount of residual protein and the type of mutation. The recurrent R284C substitution is associated with a benign disease course.

The corner-sharing octahedra tilt angles range from 0–60°. Both Ru–C bond lengths are 2.09 Å. C is bonded to six equivalent Ru atoms to form CRu6 octahedra that share corners with six equivalent CRu6 octahedra and faces with eight equivalent CeRu12 cuboctahedra. The corner-sharing octahedral tilt angles are 0°.
Extraction Methodologies and Applications of Renewable Polymers

Field: Environmental Science (Physical Sciences)

Since there are large scales of production in modern industries all over the world, non-biodegradable materials would cause serious environmental issues when dealing with pollution treatments. To reduce environmental impact, it is said that producing renewable polymers is an effective method to maintain production yields without harming the environment. Renewable polymers are polymeric materials derived from renewable carbon wastes, and reused or biodegraded at the end of life cycles. This article introduces four examples of common renewable polymers with different bio-based platforms by comparing their structures, extraction methodologies, and applications respectively. The opportunities for sustainable polymer development would be based on performances while applying to industrial and commercial use. Although some renewable polymers are still not widely used on a grand scale due to yields or costs, the researchers would continue to investigate methods to improve the situation. Because of the appealing advantages of the production of renewable polymers, the future of manufacturing would be significantly beneficial to both environment and the whole economy.
The Penetration of Renewable and Sustainable Energy in Asia: A State-of-the-Art Review on Net-Metering

Field: Energy (Physical Sciences)

Conventional fossil-fuel energy resources are being drastically depleted; thus, the current shift towards renewable energy (RE) resources has become imperative. However, there are many impediments to the adoption of renewable power generation. These impediments can be overcome by enacting policies to encourage the acceptance of sustainable energy resources. For instance, the net-metering policy can provide the necessary incentives to promote the development of local distributed energy sources, primarily solar photovoltaic and wind generators. While there has been significant advancement and development in net-metering in Asia with the increased penetration of RE, at present there is a lack of systematic review in this area. This paper aims to present an in-depth review on net-metering advances and challenges, current RE shares, and future RE targets in the Asian region. Additionally, a case study is performed and an economic analysis of net-metering regulations in an Asian country is carried out. In this study, the monetary benefits of net-metering policies for residential consumers are proved. It is envisaged that the information gathered in this paper will be a valuable one-stop source of information for Asian researchers working on this topic.
In vitro percutaneous permeation of repellent picaridin and sunscreen oxybenzone

Field: Pharmacology, Toxicology and Pharmaceutics (Life Sciences)

In this thesis, a series of in vitro diffusion studies were performed to evaluate the transmembrane permeation of picaridin and oxybenzone across human epidermis and poly(dimethylsiloxane) (PDMS) membrane. Transdermal permeation of picaridin and oxybenzone from four commercially available repellent and sunscreen products was also investigated by using different application concentrations and sequences. The results obtained were then compared to those of the repellent DEET and the sunscreen oxybenzone under identical experimental conditions. Permeation of picaridin and oxybenzone across human epidermis was suppressed when both compounds were used concurrently. Increasing concentration of the test compounds further reduced the permeation percentage of picaridin and oxybenzone. While permeation characteristics were correlative between human epidermis and artificial PDMS membrane, permeability of PDMS membrane was significantly larger than that of human epidermis. This finding was different from concurrent use of DEET and oxybenzone in which a synergistic permeation enhancement was observed between the two substances. Transdermal permeation of picaridin across human epidermis from various commercially available spray preparations was significantly lower than that of DEET from similar spray products, both alone and in combination with sunscreen oxybenzone. Concurrent application of the commercial products resulted in either no change or suppression of permeation of picaridin and oxybenzone. This finding was also different from concurrent application of DEET and oxybenzone using commercial preparations. In addition, permeation of picaridin and oxybenzone across human epidermis was dependent on application concentration, use sequence, and preparation type.It was concluded from this thesis that picaridin would be a better candidate for concurrent application with sunscreen preparations in terms of percutaneous permeation.
Keeping the older population and their informal carers healthy and independent using digital technology: a discourse analysis of local policy

Field: Social Sciences (Social Sciences)

Abstract The general discourse in health and social care policy purports digital technology as necessary to meet growing demands for long-term care and health care as a result of an ageing population. This needs critical investigation since public policy influences people's health and wellbeing. This study aims to interrogate critically what we call the ‘digital technology solution’ discourse in local Swedish health and social care policies. The main concern of our analysis is the discursive constructions of older people and their informal carers and how the concept of health is constructed. A discourse analysis was conducted of 61 local policy documents using the ‘What's the Problem Represented to Be’ method. Our analysis revealed that so-called ‘e-health strategies’ were rarely concerned with health. Health was often referred to as an activity and seen as a means to achieve independence among older people. The norm advocated independence, with the responsibility placed upon the older person, supported by digital technology. Informal carers were constructed as a resource within an older person's environment and largely taken for granted. We argue that the digital solution discourse ignores older people's agency and capacities as contributors to society, not least with regards to being providers of informal care.
Application of dose reader CD-07 for depth-dose distribution measurements in the process of microbiological radiation decontamination

Field: Pharmacology, Toxicology and Pharmaceutics (Life Sciences)

Dose reader CD-07 has been introduced for measurements of a dose distribution during dose mapping exer- cises and for calculations of electron beam energy. This instrument consists of an SP-880 spectrophotometer equipped with a driving motor to move a dosimetric foil across light beam in the front of narrow light aperture. To control the movement of the foil and to present and store the measuring results a specialized software has been developed. In this paper the use of dose reader CD-07 in Performance Qualification of irradiated herbs was described.
Performance analyses of hybrid WDM/OCDM optical networks

Field: Engineering (Physical Sciences)

In this work, optical networks using the hybrid technology of wavelength division multiplexing and optical code division multiplexing (WDM/OCDM) are investigated. The architecture of the network is described and it is shown the main advantages of applied optical paths with wavelengths and optical orthogonal codes (OOC) to routing and switching virtual optical paths. The main results show that the use of OOC codes together with optical codes converters have a great impact on the decrease of blocking probability for establishing virtual optical paths, increasing network use.
“Forget Me Not”: Free Black Women and Sentimentality: Color Plate 3.

Field: Arts and Humanities (Social Sciences)

Friendship albums, blank volumes with decorative covers, emerged around 1825 as part of a growing market of women's print culture. Sentimentalism, the chief vocabulary of the friendship album genre, targeted white women consumers and largely ignored black women. However, freeborn African Americans rigorously engaged sentimental literature in the pages of the friendship album, recasting this artifact as a specimen of antebellum black print culture. This essay explores the production of African American friendship albums and examines artistic and literary contributions by freeborn black women writers.
Nuclear Deterrence and the US–China Strategic Relationship

Field: Social Sciences (Social Sciences)

Ever since the United States dropped the first atomic bomb on Japan in 1945, countries have had to consider the impact of nuclear weapons on their security and stability more broadly.Nuclear weapons were central to the great power competition between the United States and the Soviet Union.The US-Soviet nuclear balance relied on 'a very high degree of mutual vulnerability', 1 in which peace was maintained through both sides' belief that the other could inflict widespread destruction.In the late 1960s, the nuclear stockpiles of both powers numbered in the tens of thousands, but mutual reductions were gradually achieved through a series of arms control agreements and initiatives.But there are several reasons to suspect that the nuclear dynamics between the US and China are different from those that existed between the Soviet Union and the US during the Cold War.For one, China's approach to nuclear weapons is fundamentally different from the US and Soviet approaches of assured destruction capability. 2 Instead, China's policy of 1
Molecular Self-Gating Inside a Zeolite Catalyst

Field: Chemistry (Physical Sciences)

Diffusion is a ubiquitous process that is strongly correlated with concentration. Based on developed three-dimensional free energy and a continuous-time random-walk coarse-graining method, we found the optimal diffusion pathway under confinement, determined all diffusional energy barriers, and identified the major units of zeolite where molecular diffusion is limited. Interestingly, a novel diffusion mechanism was determined in the nanopore of a zeolite catalyst by molecular dynamics simulation, pulsed field gradient, and 2D exchange spectroscopy (EXSY) NMR experiments. We describe a "molecular self-gating effect" that effectively predominates the diffusion process in cage-type (e.g., RHO and MER) zeolites through a "traffic jam" and a "smooth traffic" process. Initially, transport is hindered by molecules forming a gate (traffic jam); then, as the number of molecules reaches a certain threshold, diffusion increases rapidly due to the synergistic collisions of aggregated molecules upon the gate (smooth traffic). This unique diffusion behavior is observed here for the first time and illustrates a microscopic mechanism dictated by the molecular self-gating effect in a confined space. The exploitable diffusion disclosed herein should shed new light on the fundamental understanding of transport, as well as enrich diffusion behavior under confinement.
Memory and monumentality in the Rarotongan landscape

Field: Arts and Humanities (Social Sciences)

One way to understand how a landscape captures memories is to study places where documents have also preserved them. The author does this to remarkable effect in the island of Rarotonga, showing how the great road Ara Metua and its monuments and land boundaries were structured and restructured through time to reflect what was to be remembered. Students of the pre- and proto-histories of all continents will find much inspiration in the pages that follow.
Multifocal cortical myoclonus and cerebral amyloid beta -peptide angiopathy

Field: Medicine (Health Sciences)

The commonest clinical presentations of the sporadic cerebral amyloid angiopathies are with either recurrent lobar haemorrhages or with dementia.1 In addition, transient focal neurological syndromes have occasionally been reported in association with cerebral amyloid angiopathies. These may represent transient ischaemic events or possibly focal seizures related to petechial intraparenchymal haemorrhages which are not associated with neuroimaging abnormalities; large haemorrhages may follow the onset of transient symptoms by weeks or months.2 3 We report on a patient with multifocal cortical myoclonus who subsequently proved to have amyloid β-peptide cerebral amyloid angiopathy, an association not previously described. We consider possible pathogenetic interrelations of these findings.

A 65 year old woman presented with a 4 year history of involuntary movements. She had been noted to have abnormal jerking movements of her legs—for example, when climbing the stairs— which, on occasion had caused her to fall. Using an electric vacuum cleaner or hearing the telephone ring had been noted to trigger these involuntary movements. There was no history of cognitive impairment. Her medical history was unremarkable aside from treated hypothyroidism. Family history was positive for sudden death, all three of her elder siblings (one sister, two brothers) dying in their mid-60s. One had previously had angina, the other two had been healthy until the time of their deaths, which were ascribed to a “heart attack” and a “clot …
A history of the Asian monsoon and its interactions with solid Earth tectonics in Cenozoic South Asia

Field: Earth and Planetary Sciences (Physical Sciences)

Abstract Although there is some evidence for an Eocene monsoon, the most important intensification of rainfall appears to start at c. 24 Ma in the Early Miocene. Many palaeoceanographical proxies for monsoon intensity are linked to wind and do not correlate well with humidity of the continental climate over tectonic timescales. Rainfall peaked in the middle Miocene ( c. 15 Ma) with strong drying after 8 Ma. This timing does not correlate well with either initial uplift of the Tibetan Plateau or with the retreat of shallow seas from central Asia. The c. 24 Ma onset of strengthening rainfall is associated with the initiation of rapid erosion and cooling of Himalayan metamorphic rocks. The progressive detachment of the subducting Indian lithosphere from the eastern and western syntaxes at c. 25 Ma to the east-central Himalaya at c. 13–11 Ma would have produced corresponding propagation of rising Himalayan topography following release of the weight of the detached slab. Rapid uplift of the Himalayan barrier, blocking moisture-laden winds, is considered the most likely trigger for a stronger summer monsoon in South Asia, which in turn allowed faster erosion and exhumation of the Greater Himalaya after 24 Ma.
Chitinase in Goat Serum

Field: Biochemistry, Genetics and Molecular Biology (Life Sciences)

1. A glycol‐chitin‐splitting enzyme without lysozyme (muramidase) activity was found in serum from various animals. Goat, cow, hen, sheep and pig possessed high activity. No activity was found in serum from man, monkey, horse, dog, cat, rabbit, guinea‐pig or hamster. 2. Glycol chitin has been used as a substrate in purification and characterization. A viscosimetric assay with the use of this substrate was found to be a convenient method. 3. By means of ammonium sulphate fractionation of goat serum and subsequent gel chromatography a 100‐fold purification of the enzyme was obtained. 4. The purified enzyme has its optimal activity around pH 1.65 with glycol chitin as a substrate and, when incubated at 50 °C for 60 min, the optimal stability is in the pH interval 3.5–6.5. The pI determined by isoelectric focusing is 4.85 and the molecular weight assessed by gel chromatography is around 60000. 5. The purified goat serum enzyme degrades colloidal chitin with an optimum at pH 5.5 and is thus defined as a chitinase. Goat anti‐human lysozyme serum does not inhibit the purified chitinase. 6. To elucidate the origin of the serum chitinase, the concentration of the enzyme was determined in various organ tissues and body fluids. The highest activity with the exception of serum was found in the wall of the fourth stomach of goat and cow.
Estimating monthly temperature using point based interpolation techniques

Field: Earth and Planetary Sciences (Physical Sciences)

This paper discusses the use of point based interpolation to estimate the value of temperature at an unallocated meteorology stations in Peninsular Malaysia using data of year 2010 collected from the Malaysian Meteorology Department. Two point based interpolation methods which are Inverse Distance Weighted (IDW) and Radial Basis Function (RBF) are considered. The accuracy of the methods is evaluated using Root Mean Square Error (RMSE). The results show that RBF with thin plate spline model is suitable to be used as temperature estimator for the months of January and December, while RBF with multiquadric model is suitable to estimate the temperature for the rest of the months.
