Factors Influencing Beekeeping Adaptation Strategy to Climate Change in Ondo State, Nigeria

The study was carried out to examine the factors influencing beekeeping ‘adaptation strategies to climate change in Ondo state, Nigeria. Multi-stage sampling technique was used in the selection of respondents. One hundred and twenty (120) respondents were used for the study. Frequency counts, percentage, mean and regression analysis was used in analyzing the data for the study. Primary data for the study were collected with the aid of structured questionnaire coupled with interview schedule, the mean age of the respondents was 55 years. 10.0% of the respondents had no formal education, while majority, 46.7% of the respondents, had tertiary education. The mean annual income was N215, 143. The result of Regression Analysis between socio-economic characteristics of beekeepers and their perception towards adaptation strategies to climatic change at 0.05 level of significance, revealed that Age (X1,) (0. 000), Sex (X2) (0.001), Marital Status (X3) (0.004), Number of Household (X6) (0.002), Method of Farming (X8) (0. 000), Annual Income (X9) (0.000) had significant relationship on their perception towards respondents’ adaptation strategies to climatic change. This suggests that age, sex, marital status, number of household method of farming and annual income could enhance their perception. The study concludes that beekeeping farmers’ adaptation strategies were mostly affected by Inadequate funding, Scarcity of land resources and Negative effect on culture among others. The study recommends that there is an urgent need for government to assist farmers in searching a potential market for honey, so that farmers who involved in honey production are not discouraged by poor marketability of the products.

Challenging Futures: Using Chatbots to Reflect on Aging and Dementia

Intertemporal reflection, flexibly thinking forward and backward in time, is vital for one's future planning. Yet, cultivating intertemporal reflection about encountering difficult futures, e.g., developing a progressive cognitive condition like dementia, can be challenging. We assessed people's attitudes towards dementia following conversing with a chatbot presented as either neurotypical or simulating dementia symptoms. While neither the chatbot's presentation nor the framing of participants' future selves impacted attitudes toward dementia, it influenced participants' experiences. When framed as future selves, the chatbot evoked a strong emotional connection, leading to reflection on aging, particularly with the chatbot simulating dementia symptoms. Participants interacting with the chatbot framed as a stranger with simulated symptoms often felt frustrated, especially when they had a task-oriented mindset.Chatbots can be promising tools for prompting reflections on challenging futures, such as dementia, although their effectiveness varies due to the tensions between simulated cognitive decline and expectations for effective communication.

Structural Differences Between Registered and Unregistered Land Law - A Flickering Awareness

This chapter is concerned with the impact upon the law of the impossibility of registered proprietors dealing with the legal estate to their land without reference to the Land Registry. Registered land must be governed by different principles to unregistered land. The failure to identify these principles has led to an erratic and unsatisfactory application of the provisions of the Land Registration Act 1925 to cases concerning registered land by the courts, and little coherence or understanding in enacting "reforms" by the legislature. Generally there has been a failure to develop key features of the law of registered land. The effect of a restriction upon dealings is different to the effect of limiting the powers of trustees of land. The vesting of the legal estate in registered land is within the control of the Land Registry.

Outbreak of monensin poisoning in cattle due to supplementation error

ABSTRACT: Iatrogenic intoxications occur in domestic animals. Mortality was observed in a group of calves, reaching 20 deaths until the day of the technical visit, with or without sudden clinical signs, on a farm in the city of Pires do Rio, State of Goiás, Brazil. Deaths after the visit were not accounted systematically. Clinical signs included muscle weakness, ataxia, recumbency, bilateral jugular distention, and death. Suspected diagnosis of poisoning by ionophore antibiotics was made based on clinical and laboratory findings from nine animals, which included high plasma CK and LDH levels, as well as on anatomopathological findings of a recently dead calf, which showed myocardial and skeletal muscle degeneration and necrosis. Monensin overdose (25.5 µg/kg in skeletal muscle and 209.4 µg/kg in the liver) was detected by liquid-chromatography and mass-spectrophotometry analysis, contributing to the confirmation of ionophore poisoning diagnosis.

Predicting adolescent eating and activity behaviors: The role of social norms and personal agency.

Guided by the theory of planned behavior, this 2-week longitudinal study examined health behaviors in a sample of 279 adolescents. Social norms and perceived behavioral control (PBC) were tested as predictors of self-reported intentions and behaviors in 2 domains, eating and physical activity. Differentiating, as opposed to aggregating, parent and peer norms provided unique information. For PBC, the authors distinguished global causality beliefs from self-related agency beliefs and intraself (effort, ability) from extraself (parents, teachers) means. Intraself agency beliefs strongly predicted healthy intentions, whereas intraself causality beliefs had a negative influence. Patterns differed somewhat across behaviors and gender. Results highlight theoretical issues and provide potential targets for research on health promotion programs for youth.

Influence of Microjet Condition on Characteristics of Supersonic Jet Noise and Flow Field

Jet noise reduction is essential for environmentally-friendly civil transport. Since jet noise becomes very intense in the case of supersonic aircraft, noise reduction is crucial topic for the realization of next-generation supersonic transport. In the present study, experimental investigations were performed to clarify the effect of microjet injection on supersonic jet noise and flow field. The experiments were focused on supersonic jet with Mach number up to 1.47, which was generated from a rectangular nozzle with high aspect ratio. Far-field acoustic measurements were conducted for widely ranged microjet conditions to understand the influence of the condition on characteristics of supersonic jet noise and flow field. For understanding the unsteady behavior of the flow field and the relation with noise reduction, flow field visualization was performed with schlieren technique using a high-speed camera.

Chest pain is a common symptom in patients who visit Emergency Departments. The main task is to exclude life-threatening diseases such as acute coronary syndrome, pulmonary embolization and dissection of thoracic aorta. The authors present the history of a patient, who had an intense chest pain for 7 hours. In accordance with the diagnostic algorithm of chest pain, ECG, blood collection, chest X-ray and chest computed tomography angiography were performed. Acute coronary syndrome, pulmonary embolization and dissection of the thoracic aorta were excluded, however, chest computed tomography CT revealed a huge hiatal hernia as an incidental finding. An emergency surgical repair was performed and the patient recovered without any complications. The authors emphasize that the diagnostic algorithms focus on the confirmation or rejection of possible life threatening diseases in case of chest pain. However, it should be kept in mind that rarer causes may occur, which may require involvement of the relevant disciplines and multidisciplinary thinking. Orv. Hetil., 2016, 157(36), 1445–1448.

BPS monopole in the space of boundary conditions

The space of all possible boundary conditions that respect self-adjointness of Hamiltonian operator is known to be given by the group manifold $U(2)$ in one-dimensional quantum mechanics. In this paper we study non-Abelian Berry's connections in the space of boundary conditions in a simple quantum mechanical system. We consider a system for a free spinless particle on a circle with two point-like interactions described by the $U(2) \times U(2)$ family of boundary conditions. We show that, for a certain $SU(2) \subset U(2) \times U(2)$ subfamily of boundary conditions, all the energy levels become doubly-degenerate thanks to the so-called higher-derivative supersymmetry, and non-Abelian Berry's connection in the ground-state sector is given by the Bogomolny-Prasad-Sommerfield (BPS) monopole of $SU(2)$ Yang-Mills-Higgs theory. We also show that, in the ground-state sector of this quantum mechanical model, matrix elements of position operator give the adjoint Higgs field that satisfies the BPS equation. It is also discussed that Berry's connections in the excited-state sectors are given by non-BPS 't Hooft-Polyakov monopoles.

&lt;title&gt;Much ado about nothing: optical distortion lines (phase singularities, zeros, and vortices)&lt;/title&gt;

Often, light can be represented, approximately or exactly, by a complex scalar wave (psi) , smoothly varying in space and/or time. The field (psi) could be a cartesian component of the electromagnetic field or of the vector potential, or one of several scalar potentials appropriate to different circumstances. This meeting has been concerned with the line singularities of the phase of (psi) . Here, I wish to make some general remarks about these lines. Except where stated, all the remarks are independent of the particular wave equation that (psi) satisfies.

EXAFS: a new approach to the structure of micellar aggregates

A helical model was previously proposed for sodium (NaDC) and rubidium (RbDC) deoxycholate micellar aggregates in\naqueous solutions. SAXS, NMR, ESR, and CD meehurements verified the helical model. Here we report an EXAFS study\nby the spherical wave formalism on the coordination of the Rb' ions in the crystal, macromolecular fiber, and micellar aqueous\nsolution of RbDC together with measurements carried out on rubidium oxalate (crystal and aqueous solution). The results\nshow that the Rb" ions of the micellar aggregates have the same (or very similar) peculiar coordination as that inside the\nhelices of the crystal and macromolecular fiber. Moreover, their coordination remarkably differs from that observed in the\naqueous solutions of rubidium oxalate, where the situation would be similar to that of a classical micelle. Thus, the helical\nmodel is unquestionably confirmed.

Viscoplastic strain modeling of asphalt binder based on repeated creep recovery test

The viscoelastic and viscoplastic properties of asphalt binder are valuable to the performance research on the asphalt mixture and pavements. Especially at high-temperature condition, the viscoplastic characteristics of binder play an important role in rutting-resistant performance. This paper presents a viscoplastic modeling method, which originates from the strain-hardening model, to study the unrecoverable strain response for binder in a repeated shear creep recovery test using a Dynamic Shear Rheometer (DSR). Two types of asphalt binders were evaluated in this study, namely the neat binder PG58-28 and the SBS polymer-modified binder PG70-28. In order to fit the model coefficients, a series of 10 cycles repeated creep recovery test were designed to conduct under multiple stress levels 25 Pa, 50 Pa, 100 Pa, doubled to 6400 Pa and three different time durations which included 0.1 s creep + 0.9 s recovery and 1 s + 9 s as well as 10 s + 90 s. Test results and modeling work indicate that, compared with the measured viscoplastic strain, the strain-hardening viscoplastic model can work well on the binder unrecoverable strain response prediction in repeated creep recovery test under lower stress levels and shorter creep duration and it is necessary to take the damage factor into consideration in the future work.

Resilience and Collapse in Bee Societies and Communities

Christina Grozinger and Harland Patch round out this section with concrete case studies from the natural world. Looking at social honey bee colonies and plant–pollinator networks, Grozinger and Patch examine the feedback loops, interaction networks, and species characteristics that make these insects and ecological communities both resilient and vulnerable to collapse. As generalists with unique abilities to alter the makeup of their population through social interactions, honey bees are well-suited to manage shocks to their colonies. These characteristics, however, prove unsustainable in situations of chronic stress and make colonies vulnerable to collapse if they approach certain critical thresholds or tipping points. Similarly, plant and pollinator species within an ecological community form interaction networks, whose characteristics (modularity and nestedness) make them robust to shocks but can cause them to collapse under chronic stress. While the specific mechanisms that allow honey bee colonies and plant–pollinator communities to resist collapse in the face of stressors like habitat degradation, pesticide exposure, disease, and climate change are different from those available to human populations, these case studies provide a valuable conceptual framework that can be more broadly applied. An understanding of the resilience strategies used by other species, along with an awareness of how they interact with broader systemic characteristics, could prove invaluable as we work to model and develop strategies to overcome fragilities in our human systems.

The galatic and LMC extreme line supergiants compared: IUE observations of the Henize-Carlson and Zoo star samples of massive supergiants

The Henize-Carlson sample of galactic massive supergiants, and a comparison between the Galactic and LMC samples are discussed. Several of the stars, notably He3-395 and S 127/LMC, have very similar shell characteristics. There appears to be little difference, other than luminosity, between the LMC and Galactic samples. One star, He3-1482, was detected with the Very Large Array at 6 cm. The UV data is combined with IRAS and optical information.

Recovery of Deoxyribonucleic Acid from the Effects of Alkylation

SUMMARY: The transforming activity for an indole locus of DNA extracted from a methionine-requiring strain of Bacillus subtilis was decreased about tenfold per unit of DNA by treatment of organisms with 0·025 m-methylmethane-sulphonate for 30 min. at 37°. The treatment decreased the viable count to one tenth of the original and induced a reversion frequency of 10-5. Transforming activity of DNA prepared from alkylated organisms was sensitive, to heating at 50° as compared to DNA extracted from non-alkylated organisms. Methylation and heating of DNA in vitro did not inhibit its uptake by competent organisms. Incubation of treated and non-treated organisms in amino acid supplemented medium led to an increase in extractable transforming activity. A period of incubation which led to a 34% increase in DNA content more than doubled the transforming activity obtainable from methyl methanesulphonate treated organisms. The heat sensitivity of transforming DNA from alkylated organisms decreased after incubation of the organisms. Synthesis of DNA in the absence of a net DNA increase was demonstrated in methyl methanesulphonate treated organisms since thymidine-2-14C was incorporated without lag from the start of incubation into an alkali-stable hot acid-soluble form. The experiments are interpreted to mean that alkylated DNA can serve as a template for the replication of DNA of normal activity.
