Introduction: Hawear Customary Law has long been known in Southeast Maluku and has a rolewhich is important in organizing life, especially for traditional law communities. Hawear contains meaning prohibition to take natural resources on land or in the sea, which is based on several important and basic arguments. The principle that is the basis for the actual existence of Hawear's lais the principle of sustainablemanagement of natural resources. Wise thinking that develops wiselyThis local area is also based on the economic aspects of the country's community and the villages and villages located in the area small islands. Purposes of the Research: To find out and analyze Hawear's existence in protecting and preserving marine genetic resources in Southeast Maluku Regency. Methods of the Research: The approach method used in this research is sociological juridical which is a descriptive qualitative analysis study. This research seeks to describe what occurs in the Kei Indigenous Community in Southeast Maluku Regency, it is related to resource management coastal and marine power. The data collection techniques used in this research are: Interview, questionnaire and literature study. Results of the Research: The existence or existence of law Larvul Ngabal Currently, it is increasingly existing, this can be seen from the increasingly advanced society of Southeast Maluku and have the same feelings in a group, where they stay in one place because they come from from the same genealogy or descent. They have their own customary laws that regulate them regarding rights and obligations regarding material and immaterial goods. They also have social institutions, traditional leadership, and traditional justice recognized by the group. Larvul Nabalas a form of rule which the people of Southeast Maluku use in managing their marine resources is expected to remain the same obeyed so that it becomes a law in the management of resources both at sea and on land so that they are maintained natural sustainability. This is also in line with the protection of indigenous communities which has been recognized in Article 18B paragraph (2) and Article 28I paragraph (3) in the Indonesian Constitution The Constitution of the Republic Indonesia in 1945 (1945 Constitution of the Republic of Indonesia). This means that the state has recognized and respected rights indigenous communities, including the Law Society Larvul Ngabal.

In the background of the global commitment to low-carbon renewable energy transformation, new energy sources such as distributed wind–solar storage and charging and single-phase loads, such as electric vehicles, are connected to the distribution network. Due to the asymmetric access of load and the randomness of load power consumption, the problem of three-phase imbalance is becoming more and more prominent, and the uncertainty is increasing. In this paper, by analyzing the three-phase load imbalance problem of the distribution network, starting from the cause of three-phase load imbalance, the three-phase imbalance calculation method of the distribution network is deduced. The access mode of a distributed power flow controller in the distribution network and the three-phase imbalance compensation method are studied. The control strategy of the distributed power flow controller for the three-phase imbalance control of the distribution network is proposed. The simulation results show that the proposed method can effectively control the three-phase asymmetry problem of the distribution network, the configuration is more flexible, and the capacity utilization rate is higher.

Based on an ethnographic investigation, interviews and biographical trajectories, this paper aims to explore the current (re)composition of baking activities, driven by peasant movements. Focusing on the use of sourdough, this text questions the transformations of technical arrangements as they are justified by the category of "living", a major element in the reconfiguration of baking practices. In addition to considerations on the practical realities experienced by bakers-peasants (corporal commitments, processes), these changes lead us to question their relationships with the different materialities that inhabit their bakeries (tools, animate entities).

This service aims to empower the community around the Giong Siu City Forest, both visitors and managers, by arranging empty land for a live dispensary. The method of implementing this service included socialization and practice with a participatory approach. The results of this service activity showed that visitors and managers were very enthusiastic about participating in the socialization activity until completion. Medicinal plant planting activities were carried out together with the manager. Medicinal plants planted include yellow turmeric, white turmeric, ginger, galangal, galangal, aloe vera, and lavender. This planting was carried out in the Giong Siu location, which was still empty, so that optimal light was obtained and was close to a water source for watering.

Abstract Mitochondrial genomes have provided significant insights into the evolution of several insects. A typical mitogenome contains 37 genes, and variations in gene order can indicate evolutionary relationships between species. In this study, we have assembled the first complete mitogenomes of Endecous chape and E. onthophagus and analyzed the phylogenetic implications for the Gryllidea infraorder. We performed DNA extractions and genome sequencing for both Endecous species. Subsequently, we searched for raw data in the Sequence Read Archive (SRA) in NCBI. Using the SRA data, we assembled the partial mitogenome of Dianemobius nigrofasciatus and annotated the protein-coding genes (PCGs) for nine species. Phylogenomic relationships were reconstructed using Maximum Likelihood (ML) and Bayesian Inference (BI), utilizing the PCGs from 49 Gryllidea species. The mitogenome lengths of E. chape and E. onthophagus are 16,266 bp and 16,023 bp, respectively, while D. nigrofasciatus has a length of 15,359 bp. Our results indicate that species within the infraorder exhibit four types of gene order arrangements that align with their phylogenetic relationships. Both phylogenomic trees displayed strong support, and the ML corroborated with the literature. Gryllidea species have significantly contributed to various fields, and studying their mitogenomes can provide valuable insights into this infraorder evolution.

To achieve the optimal compromise between yield and soil fertility that will help balance two important aspects of agricultural production – high crop yields and long-term soil fertility – it is necessary to understand the impact of changing row spacing on vegetable crop growth and the soil environment. The research aims to determine the adaptive properties of the Pharaoh variety by studying the feeding area and plant density to obtain high-quality chufa nodules in the Kyiv region. The main research methods were field studies and analysis of the variance of morphological traits and economically valuable indicators of chufa. It was found that different plant densities had an impact on the development of vegetative organs of chufa due to competition for resources during the growing season. The variety “Pharaoh” showed a high intensity of aboveground mass formation in sparse crops with a plant density in the range of 28-33 thousand plants per hectare, with the number of leaf bundles reaching 145.2-147.4 pieces, and their average height is 50.4-52.3 centimetres. At the same time, the size of the nodules increased with a lower plant density, since with a larger feeding area, plants formed more powerful ones with thicker leaf bundles. Plants arranged in a 60 × 60 cm spacing (28 thousand plants/ha) formed larger nodules with the largest dimensions: 3.1 cm in length, 1.0 cm in width, and 1.2 cm in thickness. It has been substantiated that chufa of the “Pharaoh” variety was characterised by higher economic and valuable indicators under the schemes of planting 60×50 and 60×60 cm nodules. The high marketable yield of freshly harvested nodules was formed at a plant density of 28-33 thousand units/ha and amounted to 4.2-4.6 t/ha. The highest average yield of nodules after drying was obtained under the plant spacing of 60 x 60 and 60 x 50 cm, which was 3.35 and 2.99 t/ha, which was 20.9 and 7.8% higher than the control, respectively. Chufa is a promising crop in terms of food security and income generation, and precise management of plant placement will help to balance yield and soil fertility

When we talk about João Gilberto we talk about arrangement, versions, recording, revisiting and a refreshing of many songs that were recorded during his career, songs that in most cases are not his original compositions. This paper presents an investigation of João Gilberto’s harmony in his recording of Desde que o samba é samba. This work was made possible through the audition, transcription and comparison of João’s guitar and the first recording of the cited song. The audition, being key to identify aspects of his ideas, the transcription brought us, with detail, each note played by him, and finally, the comparison, being the raw material for the paper, allowed the detailed exploration on the musical ideas behind the recording, bringing theories about João’s concepts on structure, arrangement, harmony and his main instrument, the guitar, being those elements that together characterize João’s style of interpretation and arrangement.

The heat transfer tube is one of the key components affecting the heat transfer performance of automobile radiators. Proposes a new kind of heat transfer tube with ellipsoidal dimples based on the elliptical heat transfer tube. The effects of the arrangement and pitch ellipsoidal dimples on the turbulent heat transfer and flow resistance of the heat transfer tube are further studied by numerical simulation in the range of Reynolds number in 4080-24480. The results show that the ellipsoid dimple arrangement makes the near-wall fluid produce different flow forms, which enhances the turbulence degree of the tube fluid and thus improves the convective heat transfer capacity of the tube. Among them: vertical parallel arrangement (Case 1) causes convergent flow, oblique parallel arrangement (Case 2) causes helical flow, and diagonal symmetrical arrangement (Case 3) causes cross-helical flow. The cross-helical flow causes the most significant degree of turbulence, followed by the helical flow. Furthermore, the arrangement and pitch of the ellipsoidal dimples also have an essential influence on the heat transfer performance and flow resistance of the heat transfer tube. The Nusselt number and friction factor of Cases 1-3 increase successively. But the Nusselt number and friction factor gradually decrease with the rise of the pitch of ellipsoidal dimples. However, under different ellipsoidal dimples pitch, the comprehensive performance of Cases 1-3 is better than that of smooth elliptical tubes. Among them, Case 3 has the best performance when P = 15 mm, and the performance evaluation criteria value is up to 1.39. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Percut Sei Tuan District is one of the sub-districts in Deli Serdang Regency. The position of this sub-district is between Medan City and Batang Kuis District to Kuala Namu Airport. In addition, this sub-district is also one of the centers for the Medindingro development project (Medan - Binjai - Deli Serdang - Karo) as stipulated in RI Presidential Regulation Number 62 of 2011 concerning Medindingro Vision 2027 and is included in the National Strategic Area (KSN).Social and economic problems will arise as the population increases, this requires the development of office facilities, education, health, housing and so on. The challenge is quite complex for the regional government concerned in an effort to build and improve the standard of living and welfare of its people. With the increasing number of activities and dense population, a city can no longer meet the needs of its citizens optimally, so it is necessary to have supporting cities that can accommodate activities that cannot be fulfilled in urban areas. [2] This is done to prevent the development and growth of cities naturally, in other words developing without programmed direction and planning. For this reason, it is necessary to carry out a Study on the Regional Arrangement of Percut Sei Tuan Subdistrict as a guideline for the direction of development for the future, and to avoid uncontrolled forms of development. Creating an integrated urban environment that can increase the efficiency of land use and the carrying capacity of land and can improve the physical quality and appearance of the city.The results of this study are expected to be able to provide directions for regional arrangement in terms of architecture, landscape, regional design in Percut Sei Tuan District, as a guideline for the development and arrangement of urban areas. As a guide for all development actors, both in the design process, space utilization, physical development and in controlling spatial use in Percut Sei Tuan District, Deli Tengah Regency.

Der folgende Diskussionsbeitrag nähert sich dem Phänomen Artistic Research aus der Perspektive des komponierenden Musiktheoretikers und ›Satztechnikers‹ an und setzt dabei subjektive Akzente, ohne umfassenden Anspruch auf Theoriebildung zu erheben. Ich richte mich daher nicht ausschließlich an die musiktheoretische Fachwelt, sondern an alle, die an Fragen einer speziell musikbezogenen künstlerischen Forschung und deren Potenzialen interessiert sind. Am Anfang steht der Versuch einer Bestandsaufnahme, im Rahmen derer ich historische und aktuelle ›Doppelverbindungen‹ der Disziplin Musiktheorie – speziell in ihrer Eigenschaft als anwendungsbezogene Satzlehre – sowohl zur künstlerischen Praxis des Komponierens als auch zur Musikforschung darlege. Ferner zeige ich als Beispiel meiner eigenen künstlerisch-forschenden Arbeit eine analytische Rekomposition, die die tonalen Implikationen eines ›atonalen‹ Liedes von Alban Berg auslotet und dabei nicht nur neue Perspektiven auf das Originalwerk eröffnen soll, sondern auch eigene, subjektiv begründete künstlerische Entscheidungen beinhaltet. Schließlich diskutiere ich Potenziale einer ›neuen Musik‹, die die forschende Auseinandersetzung mit Theorie und Satztechnik künstlerisch thematisiert. The following discussion paper approaches the phenomenon of artistic research from the perspective of a music theorist and traditionally trained composer (Satztechniker), setting subjective accents without claiming the elaboration of a general theory. Therefore, I do not address myself exclusively to music-theoretical experts, but to all who are interested in questions of a specifically music-related artistic research and its potentials. Thus, I first attempt to take stock of the current situation by presenting historical and current ‘double connections’ of the discipline of music theory – especially in its capacity as Satzlehre – to the artistic practice of composing as well as to music research. Furthermore, as an example of my own artistic research, I present an analytical recomposition that explores the tonal implications of an ‘atonal’ song by Alban Berg and is intended not only to open up new perspectives on the original work, but also to include my own subjectively justified artistic choices. Finally, I discuss potentials of a ‘new music’ that artistically addresses the exploration of theory and traditional techniques of composition.

The Municipal Government of Padang has changed its policy towards street vendors through city government regulations by placing street vendors as part of the urban economic system that needs to be organized and empowered. So far, the government of Padang City has considered street vendors to be the cause of disorder, so it needs to be organized. This paper will explain what benefits can be obtained by street vendors from changes in the structuring and empowerment of street vendors policies implemented by the Padang city government. The study used a quantitative method with a sample of 100 street vendors. Data was collected using a questionnaire. The research was conducted in the city of Padang. The results of the study concluded that most street vendors still have not benefited from the implementation of the policy of structuring and empowering street vendors by the Padang City government, even though the street vendors see several opportunities that will arise and can be exploited to gain profits from the implementation of the policy. The Municipal Government of Padang needs to revise this policy so that street vendors will benefit more from this policy

The purpose of the research is to theoretically develop methods of characterisation and attribution of the style of arranging a pop-vocal composition. The algorithm of analytical actions in the process of auditory examination of the specifics of the musical language of the arrangement aimed at identifying the genesis of the style profile of a pop-vocal composition is determined. In this regard, the parameters of tempo rhythm and phonism are defined as the basic criteria for recognising the stylistic dominant of the instrumental component of a song genre composition. The research methodology is based on a comprehensive study of the creative specifics of pop-song arrangements using a systematic typological approaches, inductive and structural-functional methods of analysing musical compositions, and also includes a descriptive auditory method and a method of comparative stylistic characterisation of arrangements, carried out on the principle of contrasting comparisons or comparisons based on the similarity of creative methods of instrumentation, form formation, tempo rhythmic, melodic and thematic and harmonic organisation of the musical material of instrumental accompaniments, is a method of identifying the stylistic dominant (genesis) of a song genre work with a particular direction of popular, jazz, folk or academic music. The research resulted in the theoretical development of a methodology for style attribution of arrangements of cover versions of works of popular song genres. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

The Seven Crater Lakes--Sampaloc Lake, Bunot Lake, Palakpakin Lake, Pandin Lake, Yambo Lake, Mohicap Lake, and Calibato Lake--are work-in-progress to address and conclude the aquaculture structure impediments. This paper examines the aquaculture structure's configuration of the maar lakes by looking into the fish cage zone's arrangement and limitation attributes. This academic work embraces a subjective-qualitative approach and takes from the above perspective. The inferences are: [1] Pandin Lake, Yambo Lake, Mohicap Lake, and Sampaloc Lake have attained the fish cage structures' restriction, i.e. Sampaloc Lake has accomplished, whereas Pandin Lake, Yambo Lake, and Mohicap Lake have to be satisfied the fish cage structures' dimension, alignment, and distance; [2] Palakpakin Lake has confirmed the fish cage structures' reduction, as well as the fish cage structures' dimension, alignment, and distance, i.e. Palakpakin Lake shows that the aquaculture structure's configuration has not been strictly observed and, hence, this requires stringent implementation; and [3] Bunot Lake and Calibato Lake have not yet conformed to the fish cage structures' reduction, as well as the fish cage structures' dimension, alignment, and distance. Bunot Lake and Calibato Lake are still behind the rest and, thus, these necessitate responding urgently. Overall, these central features are rudimentary but essential requirements in the crater lakes--whether complementing, reciprocating, or augmenting from conservation-development connection to the aquaculture-tourism nexus.

Bundengan is one of the traditional musical instruments in Indonesia that originates and developes in Wonosobo Regency, Central Java. The bundengan music group Akustika provides arrangements for bundengan music. This research aims to determine and provide a description of the form of bundengan music arrangement by the bundengan music group Akustika. The method used in this research was qualitative with a musicological approach. Data collection wascarried out through observation, interviews, and documentation techniques. Data analysis wasconducted through data reduction, data presentation, and conclusion drawing. The research results show that the musical arrangement of Bundengan in Sanggar Akustika, Wonosobo Regency, combines traditional Bundengan musical instruments with instruments such as cak, guitar, keyboard, violin, bass, and drums. The performed music genres include modern pop, campursari, dangdut, nostalgic songs, and regional songs in Indonesia. The basic tones used are C major and G major, with mixed arrangement styles. During the performance, each musical instrument utilizes a limited repetitive playing pattern until the completion of the song. All the instruments in the Bundengan music complement each other and form dynamic and harmonious musical patterns. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Agrivoltaic systems, which consist of the combination of energy production by means of photovoltaic systems and agricultural production in the same area, have emerged as a promising solution to the constraints related to the reduction in cultivated areas due to solar panels used in agricultural production systems. They also enable optimization of land use and reduction in conflicts over land access, in order to meet the increasing demand for agricultural products and energy resulting from rapid population growth. However, the selected installation configurations, such as elevation, spacing, tilt, and choice of panel technology used, can have a negative impact on agricultural and/or energy production. Thus, this paper addresses the need for a review that provides a clear explanation of agrivoltaics, including the factors that impact agricultural and energy production in agrivoltaic systems, types of panel configurations and technologies to optimize these systems, and a synthesis of modelling studies which have already been conducted in this area. Several studies have been carried out in this field to find the appropriate mounting height and spacing of the solar panels that optimize crop yields, as this later can be reduced by the shade created with the solar panels on the plants. It was reported that yields have been reduced by 62% to 3% for more than 80% of the tested crops. To this end, an optimization model can be developed to determine the optimal elevation, spacing, and tilt angle of the solar panels. This model would take into account factors that influence crop growth and yield, as well as factors that affect the performance of the photovoltaic system, with the goal of maximizing both crop yield and energy production.

In this article we propose to analyze some aspects related to the interpretive process that occurs within the Marching Band of the Academy of Music, Theatre and Fine Arts. The repertoire approached, varies from works of popularity and entertainment, to those of academic creation. However, dominant for this type of fanfare are academic productions from different periods of music history. The interpretative act, for the most part, reflects the type of creation approached and is directed towards the full rendering of the content and stylistic specifics of the work. The operation of the interpretation sums up several essential factors, which are in a mutual interdependence, namely: the style and genre of the creation, historical period, personality of the actor, arrangement, the actions of the conductor, the psycho-emotional atmosphere, the level of instruction of the students.

The aim of this research is three things, namely: First, to find out what factors cause the area of forest not to fall to the same as the area of forested area?; Second, find out what the government's attitude is regarding the use of forest areas as not being in accordance with its function? Third, find out whether forest areas that are not used optimally can be converted into functional areas? using descriptive and nomative research methods, library study data collection techniques, with qualitative descriptive analysis. The results of the analysis show that Firstly: The causes of differences in the size of forest areas and wooded areas occur due to the function of the forest area itself (in production forest areas and conservation forest areas) and due to human actions (in protected forest areas). Where in protected forest areas, some residents consider them to be forest areas that are on private land, there are different perceptions about customary forests; Second, the attitude that the provincial government needs to take is to revitalize forests according to their function d=as a priority option; and Third, however, there is the possibility of converting forest areas for other development activities.

The poets tried to enter into pre-Islamic beliefs and return them to the Islamic era, in order to make them cultural patterns circulating among the social circles, so the voice of the blatant self-outside the Islamic system, violating the sanctity of a religion, emerged as an attempt by them to change the intellectual structures of the collective mind, by changing the Islamic rules and its permissibility. The taboos and sanctification of the profane to have a positive pattern practiced by the social system and accepted by the collective consciousness for a purpose that was able to shake the Islamic religion and undermine it because it came with beliefs that contradict their intellectual and cultural references that are steeped in the wanderings of the world and its amusements. Through cultural phrases and systemic connotations that have emerged in their literary texts, and not only that, but what we found in the poets' texts is a change in the poetic path because the poetry of the Islamic era was overwhelmed by the religious character that urges the entry of Islam. The rest of the poets dealt with it. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Review of Jonas Soares Lana's book "Rogério Duprat, arranjos de canção e a sonoplastia tropicalista", (Rio de Janeiro: 7Letras, 2022. 284p. ISBN: 978-65-5905-352-0). [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

In order to solve the vibration problems of compressor pipelines of the inverter air conditioners, the dynamics analysis of pipelines was simulated by finite element method. The frequency conversion experiments were carried out at measured points range from 35 to 72 Hz. Energy consumption model of the particle dampers was established based on pipelines. In regard to the optimal design parameters, the influences of particle material, particle size and filling rate on the energy consumption were analyzed by the discrete element method. The vibration experiments of pipelines were performed and the experimental data indicate that when particle materials of iron base alloy, particle size of 2 mm and damper filling rate of 90% are adopted, the acceleration response of the intake pipe decreases evidently with B-type particle dampers in 45° way and the reduction of measured points is 36.57%, 30.15%, 45.79 % respectively. The acceleration response of the exhaust pipe also decreases evidenily with A-type particle dampers in horizontal way and the reduction of measured points reaches to 40.87%, 62.04% and 50.42% respectively. Eventually, the variation trend of the acceleration response in the tests was compared with the analysis results of the energy consumption model. The comparison results verify the feasibility of the energy consumption model of particle dampers for pipelines. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

They begin with a note, a chord, the tap of a button, or the triggering of a loop: through progressively layered textures, samples, and extended performance techniques, many solo performers on YouTube construct their cover songs piece by piece before the viewer's eyes and ears. Combining virtuosity and novelty in a package ready-made for viral online popularity, this recent and rapidly growing internet phenomenon draws together traditions old and new, from the "one man band" of the nineteenth century, to the experimental live looping of 1980s performance art, to contemporary electronic music. Building on a number of recent studies that examine the affordances and restrictions of writing and performing music on various instruments, this article argues that these YouTube performers use both music-theoretical and instrumental expertise to convey complex textures through a minimal collection of musical materials. Through their sparse, economic construction, these intricate arrangements are each the end product of a careful analysis of each song, and they have much to teach us about the harmonic, melodic, and rhythmic structures of popular music.

In this study, a numerical model of two-phase flow boiling in a rod bundle channel was developed to investigate the influence of spacer grid's arrangement on thermal-hydraulic characteristics and critical heat flux (CHF). It was verified well by comparing with the experimental data obtained from 2006 look-up table, and the relative errors were within ±20% in most conditions. On this basis, taking a complex 5 × 5 rod bundle channel as an example, four different geometric models including bare rod bundle, rod bundles with upstream, downstream and two-Span spacer grid were established, respectively. It was found that upstream spacer grid has little influence on CHF, while CHF could be significantly improved by downstream spacer grid. Convective heat transfer coefficient of liquid phase can be increased a lot at the region of spacer grid, but enhancement effect of heat transfer only keeps a limited distance as the decreases of mixing effect of mixing vane. According to the distribution of secondary flow, the intensity of secondary flow caused by upstream spacer grid is weakened at the region of downstream spacer grid. Moreover, spacer grid would result in an increase of pressure drop, causing a certain pressure on the pump load.

Land use has a very important role in modern life, such as the role for housing, plantation business, agricultural business, mining business and so on. In this regard, problems often arise in Indonesia related to the illegal ownership of land or control over it by foreign citizens. Law No 5 of 1960 concerning Basic Regulations on Agrarian Principles contains the main points of the Indonesian National Land Law, serves as a guide in regulating issues related to land issues. This study uses normative legal research, namely analysing Law No 5 of 1960 in Article 21 Paragraph 1, which states that only Indonesian citizens have property rights over land while foreign citizens may not have property rights. The results of the study indicate that there is a need for special legal rules for foreign nationals who have lived for a long time in Indonesia related to ownership of land ownership rights.

This essay addresses the concept of compromise. When compromise takes place between two or more parties, reciprocity must be present; that is, the concessions are mutual. Genuine compromise is based on mutual respect and on genuine concessions between the parties. First, the concept of compromise is explained. Next, a relevant distinction is made between principled and tactical compromise. A principled compromise refers to a mutual recognition by each side of the other’s rights, which leads them to make concessions to enable them to meet on a middle ground. It is genuinely made in good faith and both sides reconcile themselves to the results. To illustrate I consider the need for compromise regarding praying area for women at the Western (Wailing) Wall, considered the holiest site in Judaism. The article proceeds by considering the notion of tactical compromise that reflects temporary arrangement reached as a result of constraints related to time. Here, in fact, agents do not give up any of their aims. They do not act in good faith and do not intend to meet their counterpart on a middle ground. Instead, they simply realize that the end could not be achieved at a given point of time, and they aim to reach it stage by stage. The essential component of compromise, namely mutuality, is lacking.

For the first time in Russian history, on the basis of archival documents, the article examines the proposals of the regional chief Nikolai Ivanovich Myagkov on the arrangement of the transboundary region in the east of the Russian Empire ‒ the Udsky Territory of the Yakutsk Oblast (1827), which was adjacent to the Chinese possessions. The border position of the territory gave a special status, the region was characterized by a specific community. The relevance of the topic is due to modern issues of cross-border regionalization and, in general, a poor degree of knowledge of the history of the Udsky region of the pre-revolutionary period. The research is based on the principles of historicism and scientific objectivity, as well as historical-systemic and historical-comparative methods. The prerequisites and problems of reforming the region are analyzed, the role of N. I. Myagkov and an official for special assignments A. Y. Uvarovsky in the preparation of the project. The earlier submitted proposals of the Irkutsk authorities (1825) on the development of the Udsky region and the project of the Yakut manager (1827) in a comparative aspect are considered. We note that the project of the latter was characterized by a detailed understanding of the particular problems of the remote region. The mechanism of multilevel discussion of the project is highlighted, which is associated with the complexity of the management structure of the Yakutsk region. The author notes that the transformation of the region took place in the context of the implementation of M. M. Speransky's Siberian reforms of 1822, in particular with the aim of increasing government revenues, where the main focus was on limiting the abuse of local ministers and policies towards the aboriginal population. Given the special situation in the region, the project attached great importance to Russian-Manchu trade and economic relations. The Siberian Committee was engaged in strict regulation of the observance of the principles of the reform of 1822, in particular, the provisions of the “Charter on the management of indigenous peoples”. Strengthening personal supervision is seen as one of the main methods of the regional chief in solving problems of the local region. In conclusion, the prospects for further study of the presented topic are determined.

Supergenes offer spectacular examples of long-term balancing selection in nature, but their origin and maintenance remain a mystery. Reduced recombination between arrangements, a critical aspect of many supergenes, protects adaptive multi-trait phenotypes but can lead to mutation accumulation. Mutation accumulation can stabilize the system through the emergence of associative overdominance (AOD), destabilize the system, or lead to new evolutionary outcomes. One outcome is the formation of maladaptive balanced lethal systems, where only heterozygotes remain viable and reproduce. We investigated the conditions under which these different outcomes occur, assuming a scenario of introgression after divergence. We found that AOD aided the invasion of a new supergene arrangement and the establishment of a polymorphism. However, this polymorphism was easily destabilized by further mutation accumulation, which was often asymmetric, disrupting the quasi-equilibrium state. Mechanisms that accelerated degeneration tended to amplify asymmetric mutation accumulation between the supergene arrangements and vice-versa. As the evolution of balanced lethal systems requires symmetric degeneration of both arrangements, this leaves only restricted conditions for their evolution, namely small population sizes and low rates of gene conversion. The dichotomy between the persistence of polymorphism and degeneration of supergene arrangements likely underlies the rarity of balanced lethal systems in nature. This article is part of the theme issue 'Genomic architecture of supergenes: causes and evolutionary consequences'. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Over the 1970s and 1980s, the industrialized countries established an international regime, based on a set of rules agreed upon within the framework of the Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development (OECD), aiming to restrain subsidies granted through officially supported export credits. Since the mid-2000s, some emerging countries started to offer a growing share of the overall volume of export credits, which has been challenging the efficacy of the existing regime. In this article, we will present a theoretical framework seeking to explain the reasons why States tend to subsidize their export, even though a non-cooperative equilibrium, in which all States act this way, is a suboptimal outcome. Additionally, we will seek to analyze the economic, political and institutional preconditions that made the construction of the existing regime possible and compare those preconditions with the ones prevailing in the contemporary scenario. Then, we will focus on the current practices of export credits agencies from China and the response taken from some of the OECD countries, aiming to demonstrate that the efficacy of the existing regime is under threat. After building a perspective of the global scenario, this article analyzes the main challenges faced by the Brazilian export credits policy. Finally, we will indicate some of the pros and cons of a possible accession of Brazil to the export credits guidelines set by the OECD Arrangement.

Moving pieces to become black alternation with white (MPBBAW)is a game in which black and white pieces are continuously arranged by moving. This article traces the problem of MPBBAW and points out the possibility and necessity of computer calculation and commercial application of the problem. Using the non- recursive algorithm based on dimensionality reduction, this article deals with the problem of n-order MPBBAW. The special-order problem is solved and resubstituted. Thus, the computer processing and rule exploration of n-order and n-order MPBBAW are realised. As an auxiliary card, C++ is used to provide 20 black and 20 white pieces as an example. This article lays a foundation for the computer calculation and commercial application of MPBBAW.

The paper examines the logic behind accounting professionals advice that pensions be fully funded. The report argues that this logic doesn’t apply to public pensions, since municipalities and states don’t face the same risks as companies. The paper is accompanied by a CalSTRS data-based online visualization modeling the sustainability of a partially-funded pension plan—underscoring its viability and ability to fulfill current and future obligations.

Polymethyl methacrylate (PMMA) was used as the dispersed phase and mold silicone was used as the continuous phase to prepare the shear thickening gel (STG) doped with a certain amount of flocks by rotary stirring. STG doped with flocks by a rotary rheometer was tested and observed through a scanning electron microscope. Results revealed that both the rotary stirring sample preparation and the rheological test method of the rotary rheometer could lead to the regular arrangement of flocks and could not reflect shear thickening performance accurately. The flocks showed a random arrangement in STG after the mixing process, and the dynamic mechanical properties were able to be measured with a dynamic mechanical analyzer (DMA). Flocks with a fineness of 3 Denier, 1 mm in length, and a mass ratio of 5% had significant effects on the dynamic mechanical properties of STG. Due to long continuous shearing time, flocks were arranged regularly when the sweeping frequency was higher than 125 Hz, then the shear thickening performance of the doped STG was declined.

Introduction: One of the controversial, critical and so far urban phenomena is the worn-out texture and its challenges and problems, as well as the concerns of the city management in this field; Therefore, the present study with a descriptive-analytical approach seeks to investigate the factors affecting public participation in order to organize worn-out urban structures in the region of three cities of Ardabil. Method: In terms of data collection method, the present study is a field research and in terms of data collection is a survey method. The sample size was estimated to be 384 people using Cochran's formula, which was upgraded to 400 people to cover any possible errors. The sampling method was simple random. To analyze the data, Pearson correlation coefficient, analysis of variance, ttest and regression model in the form of SPSS statistical software and GIS software were used to draw the map. Findings: Among the studied variables, the most impact on citizens' participation in organizing worn-out structures is related to trust in city managers and then the socio-economic status. Discussion: Trust in city managers, increasing the level of education and awareness of citizens, housing ownership and length of stay in an area, are effective factors in citizen participation that can be promoted by adopting comprehensive awareness measures and programs and raising its level by mass media, especially radio. Their participation was achieved. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Stephen Collins Foster (1826-1864) is a crucial figure in the history of popular music, and in American history at large: the author of globally known songs such as, among many others, Susanna or Old Folks at Home, in 1951 a Congress resolution described him as «the father of American popular music». Despite this, for several decades his work and his own figure have been at the center of a heated debate that is leading to removal from both the musical and civil world. This contribution proposes a didactic unit aimed at providing knowledge about what is ultimately a fundamental author, filling, among other things, a substantial gap in Italian musicological literature. It is addressed primarily to Secondary Schools. However, its basic concepts can also be useful for Upper Secondary Schools and for Italian Popular music history courses at university or conservatory level.

The article considers the possibility of including the technology of sample-engineering in the process of training students - future teachers of Musical Arts. The purpose of the article is to highlight the concept “sample-engineering” in its historical and technical aspects and to determine the possibilities of practical application of the innovative technology for arranging musical material by future teachers of Musical Arts. The main development stages of the technology facilitating the artificial production of non-traditional sound tones are considered, it is associated with the revolutionary inventions obtained at the end of the twentieth century and a qualitative breakthrough in microprocessor technology, which allowed us to significantly increase the volume and speed of information processing as well as the role of discoveries in the field of applied music programs and provided the emergence of new ideas regarding sound synthesis. The author describes the features of three technological stages related to sound synthesis, sampling and sample-engineering, as well as to new opportunities that are opened up for musicians through their use. The distinguishing features of using these technologies and devices are presented, in particular, the features of the sampling phenomenon and the emergence of a new variety of electronic keyboard instruments – a sampler in the memory banks of which you can store sounds that are “borrowed” from the environment. Particular attention is drawn to the importance of the widespread practice of developing modern sample-engineering technology which arose due to the microprocessor technology and the opportunity to convert an analogue sound to a digital one without any noticeable loss in quality. The essence of the concept “engineering”, the significance of its use in musical practice and the main stages-tasks of using the technology of sample-engineering in the educational process are revealed. The universal role of the computer in the application of the sample-engineering technology is determined, its technical capabilities growing when connecting external sound sources (tone generators) to it. The article substantiates the feasibility and prospects for the future teachers of Musical Arts to study the sampling-engineering technology a good command of which might allow them to achieve timbre diversity and greater artistic expression in the processing of school songs arranged by them and in their own creativity. The work reveals the prospects of using the technology of sample engineering as a way to increase the capabilities of future specialists-arrangers to process musical material, the importance of mastering creative self-realisation by the future teachers in a modern innovative way. The author presents the stage-by-stage process regulating the acquisitions of skills to use sample engineering by students in educational and creative practice alongside the prospects of mastering this technology involving a wide range of teachers of institutions of higher musical and pedagogical education.

This study examined the characteristics of Kunimatsu's guitar arrangements in Astor Piazzolla's Oblivion by comparing aspects of musical form, melody, and harmony. As with other arrangements' performances, the primary motif of Astor Piazzola'sOblivion melodic theme in Kunimatsu guitar arrangement has always been played differently from the original version. This performance phenomenon could responsibly risk blurring the identification of structural boundaries within its musical form. The purpose of this study is to prove the basic construction of Oblivion melody, including its form structure and rhythmic characteristics, by comparing Kunimatsu's arrangements against the composer's original score. This study uses musicological research methods. The approaches applied in studying this work are analytical, theoretical, and comparative. This study compares the two data to reveal the musical forms and the differences in the primary motive rhythmic characteristics. The results of this study are findings of the Oblivion musical forms in both publications and the differences in primary motives rhythmic patterns in both sources. The difference in musical form is impressive, possibly caused by the insertion of auxiliary members. As a result, Kunamitsu arrangement includes using the two-part song form, originally a three-part song form. With the revelation of the original melodic structure that is clear from the results of this study, the musicians who will present the Oblivion will at least have the essential reference in their interpretation. This research contributes to expanding studies in classical guitar performance and musical forms and new approaches in textual musicological analysis that are still infrequent. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
