Abstract:
An attempt is made to reveal the phenomenon of religious subculture in its destructive manifestations. The influence of the subcultural image of religion on social practices is analyzed. Correlation of religion and subculture is made, which allows us to trace the development of the phenomenon of superstition outside and inside subcultural groups, their external signs and characteristic traits. Attention is drawn to methods serving to suppress individual manifestations of personality, to achieve the goals outlined by the leaders of the groups, to the detriment of not only the individual, but al

Abstract:
Leaf area is evaluated as leaf area index (LAI), the ratio of leaf to ground area, and is known to be crucial to understanding forests and high-quality fruit production in orchards. Nondestructive tools have been available for decades that pair hemispherical photography with gap fraction theories to understand LAI. Those tools do not allow for rapid assessment in the field, and there is no standardized protocol to acquire accurate estimates yet. This experiment has developed an optimized method with the CID Plant Canopy Imager (CI-110) in a high-density apple orchard. This novel tool for LAI e

Abstract:
ABSTRACTIn four offerings of the Great Temple of Tenochtitlan five groupings of Pinctada Mazatlanica shell pendants were found. Due to the burial conditions, damages on the surfaces can be observed in almost all the objects. In order to assess the deterioration degree, we used a visible light spectrometer. This is an inexpensive method to determine qualitatively the reflectance of the light at the surface that is directly related to the amount of organic material remains in these objects. This data may be used as a conservation marker for monitoring the collection and it can provide outstandin

Abstract:
AbstractObsidian was used to make tools and luxury items which were widely distributed in the ancient Near East. At most sites it is an imported material and, as such, has been used as an indicator of exchange, although little specific detail of the nature of that exchange is available. Even though methods of provenance analysis for obsidian are well established, often only a few samples per site have been analysed. This means there is not enough information to indicate the relative importance of the obsidian from each source, or to establish whether source preference changed through time or w

Abstract:
This article engages with human groupings when they are operating at their very worst. These are human groupings enacting a particularly insidious, enduring and specific set of ‘othering’ dynamics that occur within and between in-groups and out-groups. This is known as lynching and these vicious and destructive human groupings are known as ‘lynch mobs’. I attempt to bring a psychodynamic lens to explore the complex issues that constitute the particular group dynamics enacted by ‘lynch mobs’ that usually target members of marginalized communities.

Tomato (Lycopersicon esculentum Mill) fruit, cv. Solar Set, were harvested at the mature-green stage and gassed with 100 mg·kg–1 of ethylene at 20 °C. At the breaker stage, fruit were held by vacuum to avoid fruit rotation and dropped from a 40 cm height on a metallic, solid, smooth surface. Following impact, fruit were stored at 20 °C and 85% to 95% relative humidity until table-ripe stage. Bruised and unbruised fruit were then placed individually inside the electronic nose-sampling vessel and the 12 conducting polymer sensors were lowered into the vessel and exposed to the volatile given off

Factor analysis provided support for a priori symptom groupings, particularly the syndromes of disinhibition and apathy-indifference. Dependency (87%), denial of illness (63%), and motor agitation (55%) were common, while sexual disinhibition (2.9%) and self-destructive behaviors (2.9%) were rare.

Abstract:
Nearly a century ago, wing venation was introduced in gracillariid taxonomy as a means to diagnose closely related genera and species groups. Recent advances in non-destructive virtual micro-dissections suggest promising approaches with which to revisit the relevance of wing venation characters on historic primary type specimens. Many unique type specimens in Gracillariidae and other microlepidoptera groups preserved in museum collections are in poor condition, and over the course of history have suffered loss or damage to their abdomens. Consequently, genitalia morphology is not available for

Abstract As one of the main risks of long-distance oil and gas pipelines, the consequences of pipeline accidents caused by third-party damage (TPD) are usually catastrophic. At present, TPD prevention approaches mainly include manual line patrol, fiber-optical vibration warning, and unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) line patrol, but there are some limitations such as untimely warning, false alarm, and the missed report. As the location technology of mobile device matures, the user group provides massive data sources for the collection of location information, with which the tracks and features of

Abstract In 2012 non-destructive testing measurements (NDT) of the reactor pressure vessels (RPV) in the Belgian Nuclear Power Plants Doel 3 and Tihange 2 revealed a high quantity of indications in the upper and lower core shells. The most likely explanation is that the measured indications are hydrogen flakes positioned in segregated zones in the base material of the pressure vessels. These hydrogen flakes have a laminar and quasi-laminar orientation with an inclination up to 15° to the pressure retaining surface. Under internal pressure, the crack tips undergo predominantly mixed mode loadin
