….be very careful to do exactly as the priests, who are Levites, instruct you. You must follow carefully what I have commanded them. Remember what the LORD your God did to Miriam along the way after you came out of Egypt and what he did to Michal and Jezebel. Remember what the priests did to Athaliah in Judah (c.f Deuteronomy. 24:8b-9). These female politicians were cornered, arrested, charged, beheaded and fragmented! Only their heads (names) that were hanged in this public place, the Bible, remained. Nobody would tell that this is Miriam, Michal, Jezebel or Athaliah. Lists of their crimes stand appended to their heads and names in public. When they were all silenced and the kings had sat in their rightful places, all the people of the land rejoiced and there was peace in the cities because these women had been slain (c.f 2 Kings 11:20). So be very careful to follow instruction and rules such that you do not end up like any of them. (Embellished by the author) Indeed, Miriam, Michal, Jezebel and Athaliah are politically killed off in the Hebrew Bible. Certainly, no one would tell from the Hebrew Bible that these women were people of significant political and leadership profiles; but merely as wicked in the history of humanity. All their political significance and contributions were literary and ideologically mutilated and separated from their names and left in the wild to be eaten by stray dogs. Their decapitated and fragmented images minus their political profiles have been ingested into an ideological system that regulates gender world order and influences social, intellectual and linguistic discourses and pictorial misogynistic polemics in the modern world. Figuratively, the remains of these women have been preserved in the way politicians of the ancient times and recent past would keep remains of their opponents. Ancient rulers would preserve a head (skull) of a particular enemy. David in the Bible cuts off Goliath’s head (1 Samuel 17:51); and the Philistines cut off Saul’s head (1 Samuel 31:9). In the Roman Republic of early 1st Century BC, political enemies like Marius and Sulla were decapitated and their heads displayed in the Forum Romanum. In 1355 Marino Faliero, Doge of Venice in medieval Italy was beheaded and his head hanged in a public place for staging a coup that was aborted. English traitors especially during the Elizabethan era were mutilated and their heads customarily spiked on London Bridge and other public places. In all these mutilations, other parts of the body were never accounted for. Stray dogs and other scavengers ate them as the case was with Jezebel in 2 Kings 8. Both head and name are proper national and political identifiers of every individual. So also the name! A head and a name are good identifiers of a person’s identity and activities. In modern times, identity documents and political campaign posters bear personal names and portraits. Preserving mutilated remains of an enemy served an ideological purpose of scarring and deterring future oppositions. It also symbolised total subjugation and control of the enemy. In movies about the political history of Uganda, Idi Amin is shown speaking ridiculously to the mutilated heads of his opponents. Preserving names of female politicians in the way they are preserved in the Hebrew Bible narratives merely serves an ideological purpose. I have argued in this paper that Miriam, Michal, Jezebel and Athaliah are political women. To African postcolonial Bible readers, they are political characters that stand for unconformity, radical activism, dissension, equality and self-reification to lead their people as their male counterparts. Although theirs is leadership based on royalty (and social prestige particularly in the case of Miriam), in their literary form they experience similar chronic maladies of patriarchal stereotype as the modern women whose political participation is based on liberal democracies. They are presented as foreign and aberrant gender in the politics of their time according to the ideological standards of the Hebrew Bible narrator. Their remains in the Hebrew Bible are positioned to ideologically kill off their political significance and portray them as evil women who destabilise the natural order. The study is contextualised on women and politics in sub-Saharan Africa with Uganda and Kenya as case studies. Both Uganda and Kenya are East African countries, with similar colonial experiences. They are predominantly Christian countries and the Bible is a very significant literature in the lives of people. It is literally the Word of God that does not only prescribe a faith, but a culture, philosophy and ideologies that are perceived as holy and pristine in socio-political intercourse of the people. Though the recent histories are different between Kenya and Uganda, in both cases the rise in female influence in politics has been paralleled by a rise in linguistic and sometimes physical abuse of female politicians. The similarities between the androcentric cultural worldview of the Bible and the African cultures have fostered a negative attitude against women’s influence in national politics. The biblical image of Jezebel is often used as a summary figure of this misogyny. Jezebel, the foreign Canaanite queen turned ‘harlot’ by the Dtr redactor is used to name a political threat—a foreign gender group infiltrating the political arena in East Africa.

Brassicaceae and a few related plant families are characterized by possession of the glucosinolate-myrosinase system. Glucosinolates are amino-acid derived allelochemicals which are hydrolysed upon tissue damage by myrosinase enzymes to produce various degradation products which can be toxic for generalist insects. The larvae of the crucifer-specialist Athalia rosae, the turnip sawfly, sequester glucosinolates into their haemolymph. The role of the glucosinolate-myrosinase system for the interaction of the turnip sawfly with Brassicaceae was examined in this study from two different perspectives: variation within individual plants and between plant species. The plant responses to the feeding by herbivores and the short-term effects this induction had on insect behaviour were investigated in white mustard. Furthermore, plants can use multiple defences. Hence correlations of glucosinolates and myrosinase activities with other defences and nutritional quality and their long-term effects on the development of the insects were investigated in seven different plant species<br>Die Brassicaceen und einige nah verwandte Pflanzenfamilien zeichnen sich durch den Besitz des Glucosinolat-Myrosinase Systems aus. Glucosinolate sind von Aminosäuren abgeleitete Allelochemikalien, die nach Gewebezerstörung von Myrosinaseenzymen hydrolysiert werden. Die entstehenden Abbauprodukte wirken auf generalistische Insekten toxisch. Larven der auf Brassicaceen spezialisierten Rübsenblattwespe, Athalia rosae, sequestrieren Glucosinolate in ihre Hämolymphe. In der vorliegenden Studie wird die Rolle des Glucosinolat-Myrosinase Systems für die Interaktion von Brassicaceen mit der Rübsenblattwespe aus zwei unterschiedlichen Perspektiven untersucht: Variationen innerhalb einzelner Pflanzen und zwischen verschiedenen Pflanzenarten. Die pflanzliche Antwort innnerhalb einzelner Individuen auf Herbivorenfraß und deren kurzzeitige Auswirkungen auf das Insektenverhalten wurden am Weißen Senf untersucht. Des Weiteren nutzen Pflanzen multiple Abwehrmethoden. Daher wurden Korrelationen des Glucosinolat-Myrosinase Systems mit anderen Abwehrmethoden und mit dem Nährstoffgehalt der Pflanzen sowie deren langfristige Effekte auf die Entwicklung der Insekten an sieben verschiedenen Pflanzenarten untersucht

碩士<br>樹德科技大學<br>經營管理研究所<br>101<br>In the intellectual economy today, Education and Training must be regarded as a prior important factor for the development of human resources, contributing to the economic growth. Training quality must be associated with the process of training and development of human resources. In the field of Education and Training, training and development of teaching staff is very important. Article 35 of the Vietnamese Constitution 1992 declared: “Education and Training must be considered as top national policy”. Target and development strategies of Education and Training from now up to 2020 are improving the quality of Teaching staff at Universities and Colleges. In order to improve the quality of this human resource, we have to evaluate the real quality of our teaching staff to know whether it meets the requirements of society. What should we do to improve the quality of teaching staff? This is not the question of education strategy researchers in particular but also the consideration of the whole education sectors and society in general. In fact, the social and economic development depends on many factors, many conditions but most are still primarily dependent on teaching staff. Thesis was conducted on the basis of arguments and surveys to bring out the solutions on improving the quality of teaching staff at Hai Duong University of Economics and Technology. A questionnaire was used in collecting data which were analyzed using statistic tools such as: Cronbach’s Alpha, factors analysis, correlation and regression analysis by SPSS 16.0. The result of the findings revealed that the quality of teaching staff at Hai Duong University of Economics and Technology was affected by two main factors: selection and recruitment and policies for lecturers. We do hope that this research will somewhat help the managers of Education have ideas to do their researches more deeply during the period of industrialization and modernization today.
