Full textAbstract:
Since the Arithmetic Teacher began publication over thirty year ago, it has regularly published articles dealing with the challenging task of teaching mathematics to less able pupils. In teaching courses on diagnois and remediation of the slow learner in mathematics, I use many of these articles and refer my students to the journal to research a variety of topics. I have organized the articles into categories and filed them in three-ring binders, thus creating a book of readings on the low achiever. As new articles appear, I add them to the collection.

Full textAbstract:
Initial Development of the ProjectI carried out field research in Gonja during the summer of 1969 and in 1972/73. The richness of both oral and archival information became something of a liability when I started writing up my research because of the practical difficulties involved in storing such a large quantity of information in a retrievable form. Drawing upon my work with Wilks, I created cross-indexed files to all articles and books, unpublished articles, archival material, and field interviews. At the same time, all of the above materials were coded so that they could be retrieved quickly on the basis of filed call numbers. Information derived from these materials was then carded and on each card the source of the information was identified by code number. This coding and carding enabled me to gain quick access to my sources of information, but I remained unable to handle rapidly the discrete pieces of information found in these sources. This problem was solved through computerized handling of information. In the following paper I shall present an account of the development of that capability and evaluate its effectiveness and potential in historical research.

Full textAbstract:
AbstractIn the last 30 years, individuals have increasingly filed complaints against their national governments for failure to exercise diplomatic protection on their behalf, in particular in cases of serious violations of international human rights law. Despite the fact that diplomatic protection has traditionally been regarded as a discretionary right of states, the national courts have invariably decided to enter into the merits of the case and to review the exercise of diplomatic protection by the executive. Initially, a draft article on this subject was not accepted by the International Law Commission in the Draft Articles on first reading, but an encouraging provision was included in the Draft Articles adopted on second reading. The development discussed in this article shows support for an obligation to exercise diplomatic protection in case of serious violations of human rights law.

Recent changes in Family Law have indirectly brought on changes in the law of successions. On two points, however, proposed solutions are uncertain. The first point involves adoption and the relative scope of Articles 626 and 623 of the Québec Civil Code. Do the effects of the adoption go back in time to the day that the placement application for adoption was filed in the event that one of the adopters is deceased some time between the petition for placement and the application for adoption ? The second point concerns the effects of natural filiation. Does Article 594 of the Québec Civil Code eliminate all differences between the two kinds of filiation ?

Full textAbstract:
British general incorporation law granted companies an extraordinary degree of contractual freedom. It provided companies with a default set of articles of association, but incorporators were free to reject any or all of the provisions and write their own rules instead. We study the uses to which incorporators put this flexibility by examining the articles of association filed by three random samples of companies from the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries, as well as by a sample of companies whose securities traded publicly. Contrary to the literature, we find that most companies, regardless of size or whether their securities traded on the market, wrote articles that shifted power from shareholders to directors. We find, moreover, that there was little pressure from the government, shareholders, or the market to adopt more shareholder-friendly governance rules.

Full textAbstract:
Articles 5(3) and 34(6) of the Protocol to the African Charter on Human and Peoples’ Rights on the Establishment of an African Court on Human and Peoples’ Rights require that an application before the African Court on Human and Peoples’ Rights (the Court) will not be ‘received’ unless two conditions are fulfilled. First, the application must be filed against a State which has ratified the Protocol. Second, an application can be received only against a State which made an optional declaration accepting the competence of the Court to receive cases from Non Governmental organisations (NGOs) with observer status before the Commission and individuals. The vast majority of State parties to the Protocol have not filed (and are not likely to file in the near future) a declaration to allow NGOs and individuals, most likely to bring human rights cases before the Court, direct access to the Court. This article examines the impact of the limitation imposed on direct access to the Court by individuals and NGOs on the African Court’s jurisdiction by considering the applications decided by the Court since it started its operations in 2006 up to December 2012. It is argued that the limitation is a major challenge currently facing the Court and that it has adversely affected the exercise of the Court’s jurisdiction. It is concluded that allowing NGOs and individuals direct access to the Court will make a significant contribution to the attainment of the objectives of the African Charter and the Court’s Protocol.

Full textAbstract:
Article 625/2 of the Turkish Commercial Code (TCC), adapted from the Swiss Code of Obligations (Obligationenrecht 811, hereinafter referred as OR 811), allows managers to submit certain decisions and individual matters to the approval of the general meeting. This paper purports to reveal how this article could be interpreted and the regulations to be made in the agreements of limited liability companies in Turkish law. To do that, an interpretation of article 625/2 of TCC is developed. In addition, the effect of this article on the liability of the managers and the references made to articles 51 and 52 of the Turkish Code of Obligations (TCO) are explained. With a regulation added in the agreement of the company, the managers would either be required to submit or they would be free to choose to submit certain decisions and individual matters to the approval of the general meeting. Considering that the submission slows down the decision-making process and causes additional costs, granting the managers the right to choose becomes an important issue. However, the approval of the general meeting does not remove the liability of the managers. So when a lawsuit for liability is filed against managers, the approval of the general meeting may decrease the payment for compensation (articles 51 and 52 of TCO)

Full textAbstract:
Colorectal cancer is epidemiologically relevant worldwide because it is the fourth leading cause of death from cancer. This study aims to present the mapping of technologies related to colorectal cancer. The search took place during the months of May and June 2019. The Leans database was used, which collects global patent information. The search occurred through the term "colorectal cancer", inserted in the title or abstract fields. Patents with publication date between January 1, 2000 and June 1, 2019 were selected. Only the patents granted and those filed were filtered (patent application; granted patent). A total of 6,850 patents were identified, of which 5,445 (79.48%) correspond to patents filed and 1,405 (20.51%) are patents granted in the period from 2000 to 2019. In 2000, 47 patents on colorectal cancer were published. The quantitative growth of technologies filed and granted was constant. In 2017 there was a total of 911 applications, indicating a growth of 1938.29% in relation to the year 2000. The first patent of the period was on the APC gene mutation, associated with colorectal cancer in families of Ashkenazi Jews, developed by Laken and collaborators (2000), and belongs to Johns Hopkins University, Baltimore, Maryland, in the United States. It can be concluded that the mapping of patents is important to trace a panorama of the world technological advance, as well as it can also be used as an instrument to identify scientific articles that cite patents developed in a given time space.

Full textAbstract:
Aim/Purpose: Education is vital as it is a major investment in human capital. Tertiary education, in particular, contributes to the growth of knowledge and advances skills, which helps in the development of a country. This paper aims to look at the research and technological output at the tertiary level in Saudi Arabia and Iran. Background: Saudi Arabia and Iran have an aspiration for leadership in the Islamic world and have been fighting for regional domination. Providing an overview of their tertiary education in these countries could be used to understand where the countries stand in their social and economic aspirations, especially when their economies move from oil to knowledge-based. Methodology: To achieve the objective of the study, qualitative thematic analysis was done on secondary data extracted from the official websites of Organization of Islamic Cooperation (OIC), the World Bank and the Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development (OECD). Contribution: The data suggest that Iran has a higher research output and development at the tertiary level than Saudi Arabia. Saudi Arabia needs to focus on its research output to achieve its social and economic aspiration to move to a knowledge economy. Findings: The findings reveal that while Iran has a much larger tertiary system than Saudi Arabia, Saudi Arabia spends a higher percentage of its GDP on education (5.14%) than Iran (2.92%) and has a higher student-instructor ratio (19.85%) than Iran (15.26%). Despite less investment in education, Iran has published more articles (38,299) and filed more patents (14,279) than Saudi Arabia, which has fewer published articles (15,509) and patents filed (2406).

The study focuses on the articles about the annexation of Bosna and Herzegovina, in ?Carigradski glasnik? (Constantinople gazette). With the aim to work on the awakening of the national consciousness among Serbian people all over the world, Constantinople gazette during the period of annexation crises, through more than five months dedicated a great number of articles to this problem. The corpus of the articles related with this topic consist of more than hundred references, testifying about enormous efforts of the editors to informed Serbian people about the political circumstances, both on the national and international filed, especially reporting about activities of The Serbian Government and Parliament, prominent persons as well as common Serbian people in different countries, and places. Although being far from the center of the events in some way Constantinople gazette is nowadays the first class historical source about abovementioned dramatic period and situation. These articles are not only presentation of events and facts, but moreover alive testimony about Serbian collective attitude and feelings toward annexation of Bosnia and Herzegovina, the precious testimony of past that has not yet been recognized in the full measure. Having in mind this fact in particular, we decided to study and present this extremely important and interesting part of Constantinople gazette.

Full textAbstract:
Complex regional pain syndrome (CRPS), previously known as reflex sympathetic dystrophy, is attracting more public attention in Japan which is likely a result of the recent upsurge in lawsuits filed against medical institutes. A recent court ruling over a case of injection-needlestick-injury induced CRPS has touched off serious debates among both medical practitioners and legal professionals. Although the court rejected the plaintiff's claims, the high court admitted them in view of the evidence and the entire pleadings and ordered the defendant to pay compensation. As venipuncture is the most frequently conducted and minimally invasive procedure in daily clinical practice, this court decision has attracted tremendous interest throughout the nation, alarming medical practitioners, and encouraging attorneys. The purpose of this article is twofold: to highlight the patient's clinical course in summary based on an unofficial case law report1 and to provide a scientific perspective on this issue based on recent relevant articles.

Objectives We aimed to evaluate the global scientific output of gene research of myocardial infarction and explore their hotspots and frontiers from 2001 to 2015, using bibliometric methods. Methods Articles about the gene research of myocardial infarction between 2001 and 2015 were retrieved from the Web of Science Core Collection (WoSCC). We used the bibliometric method and Citespace V to analyze publication years, journals, countries, institutions, research areas, authors, research hotspots, and trends. We plotted the reference co-citation network, and we used key words to analyze the research hotspots and trends. Results We identified 1,853 publications on gene research of myocardial research from 2001 to 2015, and the annual publication number increased with time. Circulation published the highest number of articles. United States ranked highest in the countries with most publications, and the leading institute was Harvard University. Relevant publications were mainly in the field of Cardiovascular system cardiology. Keywords and references analysis indicated that gene expression, microRNA and young women were the research hotspots, whereas stem cell, chemokine, inflammation and cardiac repair were the frontiers. Conclusions We depicted gene research of myocardial infarction overall by bibliometric analysis. Mesenchymal stem cells Therapy, MSCs-derived microRNA and genetic modified MSCs are the latest research frontiers. Related studies may pioneer the future direction of this filed in next few years. Further studies are needed.

Abstract How does media attention shape bureaucratic behavior? We answer this question using novel data from the Mexican federal government. We first develop a new indicator for periods of anomalously heightened media attention, based on 150,000 news articles pertaining to 22 Mexican government ministries and agencies, and qualitatively categorize their themes. We then evaluate government responsiveness using administrative data on roughly 500,000 requests for government information over a 10-year period, with their associated responses. A panel fixed-effects approach demonstrates effects of media attention on the volume of outgoing weekly responses, while a second approach finds effects on the “queue” of information requests already filed when anomalous media attention begins. Consistent across these empirical approaches, we find that media attention shapes bureaucratic behavior. Positive or neutral attention is associated with reduced responsiveness, while the effects of negative attention vary, with attention to government failures leading to increased responsiveness but attention to corruption leading to reduced responsiveness. These patterns are consistent with mechanisms of reputation management, disclosure threat, and workload burden, but inconsistent with mechanisms of credit claiming or blame avoidance.

Full textAbstract:
OBJECTIVENeurosurgery, and particularly spine surgery, is among the most highly litigated medical specialties in the US, rendering the current malpractice climate of primary importance to spine surgeons nationwide. One of the primary methods of tort reform in the civil justice system is malpractice damage capitation (or “caps”); however, its efficacy is widely debated. The purpose of this article is to serve as a review for the practicing neurosurgeon, with particular emphasis on short- and long-term effects of damage caps and on the current debate regarding their utility, based on a systematic review of the literature.METHODSThe Meta-Analysis of Observational Studies in Epidemiology (MOOSE) guidelines for systematic review of observational studies were used in the design of the study. Multiple medical and legal online databases (MEDLINE, Scopus, EMBASE, and JSTOR) were queried using the key words “malpractice” and “damage capitation” for articles from 2000 to 2014. A total of 96 abstracts were screened for inclusion and exclusion criteria. Of these, 22 articles were reviewed in full and another 15 were excluded for study design or poor quality of data. Five more studies were added after cross-checking the bibliographies of the included articles. The resulting 12 articles were evaluated; relevant data were extracted using a standardized metric.RESULTSFive studies were found showing varying effects of capitation on physician availability, with only 1 of these specifically showing increased availability of neurosurgery and elective spine coverage in states with capitation. Four studies demonstrated that capitation overall succeeds in decreasing jury awards and frequency of claims filed. Last, 3 studies were found showing an overall decrease in malpractice premiums for states that passed damage capitation.CONCLUSIONSThere is evidence in the literature showing that total and noneconomic damage capitation has the potential to improve the practice environment for neurosurgeons nationwide. Additionally, there are other factors that affect malpractice premium rates, such as the investment markets, which are not affected by these laws. All of these are important for spine surgeons to consider and be aware of in advocating for appropriate reform measures in their states.

Objective This is the sixth article in a series that explores the historical events surrounding the Wilk v American Medical Association (AMA) lawsuit in which the plaintiffs argued that the AMA, the American Hospital Association, and other medical specialty societies violated antitrust law by restraining chiropractors' business practices. The purpose of this article is to provide a brief review of the plaintiffs, lead lawyer, and the events immediately before the lawsuit was filed. Methods This historical research study used a phenomenological approach to qualitative inquiry into the conflict between regular medicine and chiropractic and the events before, during, and after a legal dispute at the time of modernization of the chiropractic profession. Our methods included obtaining primary and secondary data sources. The final narrative recount was developed into 8 articles following a successive timeline. This article, the sixth of the series, explores the plaintiffs' stories. Results Because of the AMA's boycott on chiropractic, chiropractors were not able to collaborate with medical physicians or refer patients to medical facilities, which resulted in restricted trade and potential harm to patients' well-being. The plaintiffs, Patricia Arthur, James Bryden, Michael Pedigo, and Chester Wilk, came from different regions of the United States. Each had unique experiences and were compelled to seek justice. The lead lawyer, Mr George McAndrews, was the son of a chiropractor and had witnessed the effect that the AMA's attacks on chiropractic had on his father. It took several years to gather enough resources to file the suit, which was submitted in 1976. Conclusion The conflicts that the plaintiffs experienced stimulated them to pursue a lawsuit against the AMA and other organized political medicine groups.

Full textAbstract:
A decade ago, the financial world was taken by surprise, when prominent credit institutions filed for bankruptcy. The financial crisis phenomena spurred the need for regulating Securitisation and enhancing the capital requirements framework. In response, the Basel Committee initiated the regulatory treatment for the Simple Transparent and Comparable Securitisation (STC Securitisation), the USA passed the Dodd–Frank Act and the EU introduced Securitisation Regulation No. 2017/2402 to address the causes and failures, which were identified, following the aftermath of this financial crisis. With this article, we aim to analyse the main provisions of the Regulation No. 2017/2402 on Malta as a jurisdiction for securitisation and provide an insight on the prospective market development. To reach our aim we analysed scholarly documentation (academic chapters, journals, articles and monographs), rules, guidelines, recommendations, directives and regulations and use the case study methodology, as suggested by Yin (2003) and Yazan (2015), on Malta. In our opinion, recently, Malta has made significant improvements in the securitisation sector, mostly evidenced by the introduction of the legislation. All interviewees emphasised that Malta has substantial opportunities for further growth in the securitisation market and it is encouraged to be exploited well.

In February 2013, the Committee on the Elimination of Racial Discrimination (CERD Committee or the Committee) issued its opinion in TBB—Turkish Union in Berlin/Brandenburg v. Germany. The majority of the Committee concluded that Germany had violated its obligations to protect its Turkish and Arab populations from a former state official’s allegedly racially discriminatory statements in violation of Articles 2(1)(d), 4(a), and 6 of the International Convention on the Elimination of All Forms of Racial Discrimination (CERD or the Convention). The Committee reached significant conclusions regarding the contours of incitement to racial hatred and ideas of racial superiority, the balance between freedom from discrimination and freedom of expression, and state discretion not to prosecute. Consideration of this matter also marks the first time a member of the CERD Committee has filed an individual—or dissenting—opinion.

Full textAbstract:
The alteration of mRNA translation has a crucial role in defining the changes in cellular proteome. The phosphorylation of eukaryotic initiation factor 4E by mitogen-activated protein kinase-interacting kinases (Mnks) leads to the release and translation of mRNAs of specific oncogenic proteins. In recent years, the efforts made by the pharmaceutical industry to develop novel chemical skeletons to create potent and selective Mnk inhibitors have been fruitful. The pyridone-aminal scaffold has been utilized to generate several series of Mnk inhibitors presented in multiple patent applications and research articles. Tomivosertib (eFT508) is one of the molecules with such scaffold. It is one of the first two Mnk inhibitors that entered clinical trials, and has displayed momentous activity against several solid and hematological cancers. The present compilation provides a succinct review of the current state of development of pyridone-aminal-derived Mnk inhibitors through the analysis of relevant patent applications filed in the last 5 years.

Full textAbstract:
Based on the results of compilation and analysis of statistical data on consideration of complaints of interested persons by the courts of general jurisdiction, filed pursuant to articles 125 and 125.1 of the code, the author proposes some measures for improving the system of judicial statistics given the active introduction of digital technology in the field of criminal procedural relations. The paper notes the priority role of the court in the implementation of the constitutional right of citizens to access justice and in their protection from illegal actions (inaction) and decisions of bodies and officials carrying out criminal prosecution. To optimize the areas of judicial activities the author suggests broad interpretation of the provisions of part 1 of article 30 of the Criminal Procedural Code of the Russian Federation and the formation of the court composition for consideration of requests submitted with the court at pre-trial stages of the criminal process, with the use of an automated information system. The paper substantiates the necessity of successive integration of the State Automated System of legal statistics with the State Automated System «Pravosudie [Justice]», which will allow users of these systems to track the results of the procedural activities of the preliminary investigation, prosecution and court activities at all stages of criminal proceedings. The author also considers it relevant to reflect in more detail the results of consideration and resolution by the court of citizens’ appeals received at the initial stage of criminal proceedings in the annual analytical reviews prepared by the Judicial Department at the Supreme Court of the Russian Federation based on summary statistical reports of all courts of the Russian Federation.

The Inter-American Commission on Human Rights (Commission) brought this action in 1986 against the Government of Honduras in the Inter-American Court of Human Rights. The Commission alleged that Honduras had violated Articles 4, 5 and 7 of the American Convention on Human Rights (Convention) with respect to the 1981 detention and subsequent disappearance of a Honduran student, Angel Manfredo Velásquez Rodríguez. The Court ruled for the Commission and unanimously held: (1) that domestic Honduran legal remedies were ineffective and did not bar the Court’s jurisdiction; (2) that a systematic pattern of disappearances was carried out or tolerated by Honduran government officials from 1981 to 1984; (3) that Honduras had violated the victim’s rights as part of that practice; and (4) that Honduras must therefore compensate the family of the victim and that any agreement on the form and amount of compensation must be approved by the Court. The Court further held, by six to one, that it would decide the form and amount of compensation if Honduras and the Commission were unable to negotiate an agreement within 6 months. Judge Piza filed a dissenting opinion.

Full textAbstract:
The subject of this paper is the analysis of the way the daily printing in Serbia is engaged in the reporting on suicide and the level of respect of the Code of Ethics of Serbian Journalists. The aim of thee paper is to present and analyse the findings of the research on the manner of reporting on cases of suicide in electronic editions of eight daily newspapers in the period from 1st January to 30th September 2018. Both quantitative and qualitative analysis of the media content, including photographs and video footage was performed. The research findings showed that only two dailies out of eight fully followed the professional and ethical conduct for journalists. In total, 223 articles have been published about cases of suicide. Out of this number, the Code of Ethics has been violated in 147 articles (65.9%). In 40 articles media un-ethically reported on cases of suicide of children and minors. The most frequent methods of the Code of Ethics? violations include: disrespect of dignity, privacy and grief of people who have experienced the death from suicide of a loved one, publishing photographs of the scene of a given suicide, and pictures of an individual who has died by suicide and of his/her family members, and using language which sensationalises suicide. Due to unethical reporting, members of the family of the persons who committed suicide have been exposed to additional trauma and stigmatization, thus becoming invisible victims of irresponsible media reporting. The analysis of the legal and institutional framework has shown that mechanisms for the protection of their right to privacy and dignity are in place. Beside court protection, the victims of non-ethical reporting may seek protection from the Press Council, an independent self-regulatory body that has been established for monitoring the observance of the Code of Ethics and solving complaints made by individuals and institutions related to media content. However, it has been found that the traumatised and stigmatised family members very rarely use these opportunities provided. The analysis of the complaint proceedings before the Press Complaints Commission from the beginning of its work in September 2011 to 2019 showed that only three persons filed complaints against media seeking protection of their right to privacy and dignity.

Full textAbstract:
Background: Thiazole is widely investigated bioactive scaffold and dynamic tool in medicinal chemistry research. Significance of thiazole compounds are well documented as thiazole is an obligatory structure of number of currently available therapeutics. In spite of that, thiazole derivatives are endowed with myriad biological activities, such as antiviral, anticancer, antibacterial, antifungal, antimalarial, antiparkinsonian, anti-inflammatory activities and many more. Methods: In recent past, different approaches have been introduced for synthesis of thiazole and related compounds. Intrinsic molecular interaction between newly synthesized thiazole compounds and plethora of drug targets/enzymes has rendered discovery of new drug molecules with advances in modes of action. A renewed interest in therapeutic use of thiazole derivatives has been seen among the prospective researchers as exemplified by influx of huge scientific articles and patents. Some important patents of anti-infective and anticancer interest have been addressed appropriately and are presented in tables. Results: This review paper is a contemporary approach on therapeutic/applications of thiazole derivatives by summarizing important patents filed from 2000-2017. The main focus of these patents is on anti-infective and anticancer potential of thiazole based compounds. Conclusion: These approaches may provide valuable information for the further design of more active biological agents through various modifications and derivatizations.

Purpose Apart from presenting an overview and background on anti-money laundering (AML) rules and procedures for casinos in both Macao and the USA, this paper aims to examine the differences in their regulatory approaches with regard to their existing AML reporting processes and discusses possible weaknesses in their respective regulatory regime. Design/methodology/approach Given that the regulations and statistics on the AML issues may not all be publicly available, the authors managed to secure some data from the bureaus concerned through published reports and interviews with government officials. Regarding the AML procedures in casinos, the authors attempted to go over the annual reports published by the casinos for submission to the Hong Kong Stock Exchanges and Clearing Limited because all these casinos are listed companies in Hong Kong. Findings This paper analyzes the trends in reporting numbers and the categorization of the types of suspicious activity reports filed both in Macao and the USA. While the US suspicious activity reporting focuses on efforts to avoid currency reporting, Macao emphasizes improper or inadequate documentation and identification. Originality/value This paper is one of the few articles comparing the AML rules and procedures between casinos in the USA and Macao. It seeks to highlight the differences in their regulatory approaches and discusses the expected future direction of AML legislation.

Full textAbstract:
Modern finance texts have long advocated a focus on “free cash flow” rather than on earnings for evaluating firm performance. While U.S. GAAP does not require firms to disclose free cash flow (FCF) information, some firms voluntarily report and emphasize FCF in their financial statements. FCFs are discussed and used in some finance texts, analysts' reports, and financial press articles, yet little theoretical and conceptual guidance exists on how to compute FCF. Hence, the SEC and the FASB have expressed concern about the comparability, consistency, and transparency of these reported measures. This study provides empirical evidence on a set of firms that voluntarily disclose FCF information in their 10-K and 10-Q reports filed between 1994 and 2004. The number of firms disclosing FCF information is small but has grown in recent years. We document that FCF definitions vary widely, limiting comparability of FCF disclosures across firms. Our results also indicate that FCF firms are less profitable and more leveraged than other firms in their own industries. Moreover, FCF firms have lower credit ratings and pay out higher dividends. These results suggest that FCF firms provide FCF disclosures to augment reported income and cash flow information. As such, our results suggest that FCF firms view FCF disclosures as an important complement to their traditional reporting practices.

ABSTRACT This research is motivated by the existence of an Application for Divorce Claims in Bogor Religious Court ruling as an Applicant filing for Claims Divorce and Child Custody. The Plaintiff as a mother filed a lawsuit to the Bogor Religious Court so that Child Custody fell on the Plaintiff. But the Defendant as the father is suing back, that the child custody holder is his father because his mother does not reflect as a good mother. Then the Board of Judges of the Bogor Religious Court rejected the Plaintiff's claim and granted the Defendant's claim to establish custody of the child at the Defendant until the child is 14 years old provided that the plaintiff is given access to meet the child. This study aims to determine the legal basis of the Panel of Judges, the method of finding the Panel of Judges in child custody cases. The results of this study are: 1. The consideration of the panel of judges granted the Defendant's lawsuit because he saw from the facts in the trial and based on the evidence submitted by the parties and looked at the benefit of the child. 2. Judges use the method of legal construction in legal discovery, namely the method of law enforcement (rechtsvervjnings). In this method, the judge can rule out articles that are deemed incompatible with the facts at this time.

Background: Cancer is a global health problem and the continuous rise in incidence and mortality due to cancer carries a real economic burden to all countries. Accumulation of genetic mutation, exposure of environmental carcinogens and food habits due to change in lifestyles are the key reasons for cancer. Targeting cancer cells, we need a multitargeting molecule with low/no toxicity. Objective : To review the current update of the research status of chemopreventive/therapeutic molecule, Apigenin. Methods: Compare the results of the published articles and granted patents on this compound. We also discuss the pros and cons of the present research and future direction. Results: Cancer cells have characteristic alterations and dysregulation of various cell signaling pathways that control cell homeostasis, proliferation, motility, and survival in normal cells. Natural flavonoids are the compounds well known for their anti-inflammatory, anti-oxidant, and anti-cancerous properties. Apigenin, along with several other physiological effects, has a very low intrinsic toxicity and striking effects on the proliferation of cancer cells. Interestingly, this multitargeting molecule is getting wide acceptance among researchers. It is evident from the recent patents filed in this compound. At present, three patents have been granted only on the anticancer properties of apigenin. Conclusion: This mini-review will explain the present research status of apigenin and will further shine some light on how apigenin performs its anti-cancerous actions by interfering with the key cellsignaling pathways.

Full textAbstract:
Meilė Lukšienė’s perception of school is filed with values of humanism, national and civic culture, and the imperative of a harmonious combination of high level of education, critical mind and free will. However, the insightful researcher foresaw and claimed that “it is rare that there should be no gap between an idea and its realization” and she warned at the same time that “… another wave is rolling, levelling all the people and disturbing the revival of their dignity; it is the power of money, the power of commercialism, growing constantly stronger. It manipulates the lowest human instincts and urges (the entire industry of excessive entertainment and sex!), earning from them. Can it bypass schools and educational institutions of all levels?”
The article presents a research, which aims at revealing the reasons of bullying at school in terms of social attitude, as a conflict between humanistic ideas and the reality. A Lithuanian media website www.delfi.lt, where various articles on topics relevant to Lithuania are published, was chosen for the research. 4 articles on bullying were selected for the research and commentaries on them were analysed. The study sample was formed by selecting commentaries according to the following criteria: the commentary had to be logical, ethical, unoffending and informative for the purpose of the study. A total of 186 commentaries on bullying were analysed in terms of their textual meaning.
The research results showed that humanistic ideas are confronted in school reality with the behavior manifesting through bullying that destroys a person’s dignity and psychological balance. It was established that the reasons of bullying lie within leisure, home, and school environment. They are provoked by the following:
TV programs full of examples of bullying and violence as well as the low level of culture of the social actors speaking in the public space;
Undesirable behavioral models of the parents, observed by the children at home (slander, violence against family members, physical punishment of children);
Scarce parental care and consideration of the children caused by the lack of upbringing skills of time;
Limited pedagogical ethics in the behavior of teachers, the supply of informal education activities at school insufficiently meeting the children’s needs.
It was already in 1997 when Meilė Lukšienė suggested an insightful way out: “<…> together with the entire society to analyse the channels and forms of human deformation soberly and responsibly, and look for ways to stop the deformation with joint effort.”

ABSTRAKPutusan Mahkamah Konstitusi Nomor 46/PUUXIV/2016 menyatakan "menolak perrmohonan para pemohon seluruhnya" pada uji konstitusional pasal-pasal KUHP terkait norma zina yang diajukan para pemohon, yang pada intinya berkeinginan adanya "pembaruan" norma tentang perzinaan. Putusan a quo tidak juga disepakati secara bulat, ada empat hakim konstitusi yang mempunyai pendapat berbeda. Artinya pula putusan a quo dapat dimakna tidak dinamis namun ada dinamikanya. Untuk itu penulis perlu mengkaji bagaimanakah makna pemahaman tidak dinamis namun ada dinamikanya dalam Putusan Mahkamah Konstitusi Nomor 46/PUU-XIV/2016 terkait uji konstitusional pasal-pasal dalam KUHP terkait norma zina. Penelitian ini merupakan penelitian hukum normatif, sedangkan analisis data dilakukan secara normatif kualitatif. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa makna pemahaman putusan a quo tidak dinamis karena tidak menghasilkan ide baru. Sedangkan makna pemahaman ada dinamikanya adalah sebagaimana adanya empat hakim konstitusi yang mempunyai pendapat berbeda dan pendapat berbeda tersebut sejalan pula dengan sebagian besar permohonan para pemohon terkait adanya permohonan "pembaruan" norma zina, akan tetapi ketika "masuk" ke ranah pemidanaannya tidak sependapat.Kata kunci: makna tidak dinamis, dinamika, norma zina. ABSTRACTConstitutional Court Decision Number 46/PUUXIV/2016 rejecting the request of the petitioners in its entirety, in a constitutional review of the articles of Criminal Code regarding adultery norms filed by the petitioners, which essentially wish for "renewal" of the norms. Decision a quo was also not agreed upon unanimously considering that there were four constitutional justices having different opinions. It can be said that decision a quo is undynamic, although it still has dynamics within. Therefore, it needs to be elaborated on what is meant by undynamic but there is a dynamics in the Constitutional Court Decision Number 46/PUUXIV/2016 related to the constitutional review of articles in the Criminal Code regarding adultery norms. This is a normative legal research done through normative qualitative data analysis. The results show that the sense of undynamic decision quo is understood for it does not generate new ideas. While what is meant by occuring dynamics is that there are four constitutional court justices having different opinions, which is consistent with the petitioners in major terms related to the request for "renewal" of adultery norms, but dissent when it comes to penalizing.Keywords: undynamic meaning, dynamics, adultery norms.

Purpose The purpose of this paper is events and analysis of present a hedge fund collapse, offer lessons to investors and hedge fund industry stakeholders and propose a possible remedy for mitigating operational risks and associated potential losses. Design/methodology/approach This study focused on one hedge fund case study and conducted a thorough investigation of the events that led to the collapse and eventual filing of the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) complaint. All articles and publications used for this research are available in the public domain and accessible. Findings Wood River Capital Management had concentrated the portfolios of its two hedge funds into one stock, EndWave Corp. Fund Manager violated terms of offering memorandum. Investors were not made aware of and did not discover the operational risks. Stock price of EndWave plummeted. There was no independent oversight over the funds. The values of the two funds dropped significantly. Investors attempted to redeem but the funds were not liquid. The SEC filed a complaint. Mr Whittier was sentenced for three years in jail. Research limitations/implications It is an analysis of US-based hedge fund, not an empirical paper. The article presents critical analysis and offers many valuable lessons to hedge fund industry stakeholders. Practical implications This paper helps investors in terms of identifying a hedge fund’s operational risks and conducting more effective due diligence while vetting a hedge fund. This could potentially save investors and constituents billions of dollars, by avoiding potential hedge fund collapses. This paper suggests that the scope of fiduciary duty be expanded to cover hedge fund industry vendors. Originality/value Thorough research of a hedge fund that collapsed because of poor investment decisions, not self-enrichment at expense of fund investors. This paper provides lessons to investors in terms of identifying a hedge fund’s critical operational risks and conducting value preserving due diligence. This could potentially save hedge funds investors billions of dollars, by avoiding potential hedge fund collapses. This paper recommends that the scope of fiduciary duty be expanded to cover hedge fund industry vendors.

Vortex solutions to the classical field equations in a massive,renormalizable U(1) gauge modelare considered in (2+1) dimensions. A vector field whose kineticterm consists of aChern-Simons term plus a Stuekelberg mass termis coupled to a scalar field. If the classical scalarfield is set equal to zero, then there are classical configurationsof the vector field in which themagnetic flux is nonvanishing and finite. In contrast to theNielsen-Olesen vortex, the magneticfield vanishes exponentially at large distances and divergeslogarithmically at short distances. Thisdivergence, although not so severe as to cause the flux to diverge,results in theHamiltonianbecoming infinite. If the classical scalar field is no longer equalto zero, then the magnetic fluxis not only finite, but quantized and the asymptotic behaviour of thefield is altered so that theHamiltonian no longer suffers from a divergence due to the fieldconfiguration at the origin.Furthermore, the asymptotic behaviour at infinity is dependent on themagnitude of theStuekelberg mass term.PACS No.: 11.15 Kc

Purpose The literature in the field of Lean Six Sigma (LSS) is escalating with frameworks, but, till date, no effort has been made in existing literature to critically reviewing LSS frameworks. The aim of this paper is to investigate the literature about Lean, Six Sigma and LSS frameworks and critically reviewing the existing literature over numerous parameters. Design/methodology/approach This study focuses on a literature review of Lean, Six Sigma and LSS frameworks. The time span of this analysis is 30 years. The analysis is restricted to searching online databases such as Elsevier Science direct, Taylor and Francis, Emerald, Springer link, Wiley Inter-Science and Inder-Science. A total number of 58 frameworks have been used as sample size for this study. The study focuses on reviewing these 58 frameworks based on measures such as the novelty of frameworks, source of frameworks, framework verification, approach of verification and identification of vital elements/tools/constructs of frameworks and lastly comparative analysis of all these 58 frameworks Findings The analysis has identified major discrepancy such as laxity of researcher toward utilizing existing frameworks, lack of participation of practitioners and consultants in the development of LSS frameworks, and the elements/constructs used in structuring the frameworks are highly incoherent. Higher proportions of frameworks are verified through various modes of verification such as survey, case study, simulation, which encourages other researchers for applicability of the frameworks. Case study is found most popular research design method for verification of frameworks. Various frameworks are highly abstract or superficial. Some of the frameworks do not show how each construct/element are related to implementation in the organization. Out of 58 frameworks, the only single framework is highly comprehensive.

Quantum field theory is assumed to be gauge invariant. We show that for a Dirac field the assumption of gauge invariance impacts on the way the vacuum state is defined, and also that the conventional definition of the vacuum state must be modified to take into account the requirements of gauge invariance.PACS No. 1100

In recent years medical education has developed dramatically, but lecturers often cite the existence of a gap between theoretical and practical knowledge. In the first decade of the present century, new research methodology named “design-based research (DBR)” was developed, which most experts and journals refer to as a fundamental way to make changes in the quality and applicability of studies and educational research as well as to enhance and improve the practice of instruction. The aim of the present study was introducing design-based research and its concepts, features, applications, and challenges. A narrative review was conducted in 2018. For this purpose, authorized English academic database including Web of Science, Science Direct, Google Scholar, international database and library in medical research filed with keywords including “design-based research, definition of DBR, DBR applications, medical education, and DBR challenges” without date limitation until 2018.11.21 were screened. Overall, 68 articles were selected and after careful reading, 21 article with related subjects were selected for material extraction. The conclusion was made that DBR that combines empirical research with design-based theories could be considered as an effective method for understanding quality, time and the cause of the phenomenon of educational innovation in practice. Usually DBR is formed by initial evaluation of a problem that occurs in a particular context, and this assessment continues throughout design and implementation. One of the characteristics of DBR is the guiding team, which includes researchers, professionals, designers, managers, teachers, trainers and others whose expertise and knowledge may in some way help. The application of DBR in web-based training programs is quite evident. The probability of non-returns in short-term projects is one of the main challenges of DBR. Medical education has developed dramatically in recent years, but it has made little progress in promoting innovative research methodologies. DBR can be used as a bridge between theories and practice and provide the basis for close communication between researchers, designers, and participants. By applying sophisticated methods and multiple sources of information, the success rate of an intervention in a particular environment is assessed, which ultimately leads to improved theories.

AbstractThis is the last in a series of articles where we are concerned with normal elements of noncommutative Iwasawa algebras over {\mathrm{SL}_{n}(\mathbb{Z}_{p})}. Our goal in this portion is to give a positive answer to an open question in [D. Han and F. Wei, Normal elements of noncommutative Iwasawa algebras over \mathrm{SL}_{3}(\mathbb{Z}_{p}), Forum Math. 31 2019, 1, 111–147] and make up for an earlier mistake in [F. Wei and D. Bian, Normal elements of completed group algebras over \mathrm{SL}_{n}(\mathbb{Z}_{p}), Internat. J. Algebra Comput. 20 2010, 8, 1021–1039] simultaneously. Let n ({n\geq 2}) be a positive integer. Let p ({p>2}) be a prime integer, {\mathbb{Z}_{p}} the ring of p-adic integers and {\mathbb{F}_{p}} the finite filed of p elements. Let {G=\Gamma_{1}(\mathrm{SL}_{n}(\mathbb{Z}_{p}))} be the first congruence subgroup of the special linear group {\mathrm{SL}_{n}(\mathbb{Z}_{p})} and {\Omega_{G}} the mod-p Iwasawa algebra of G defined over {\mathbb{F}_{p}}. By a purely computational approach, for each nonzero element {W\in\Omega_{G}}, we prove that W is a normal element if and only if W contains constant terms. In this case, W is a unit. Also, the main result has been already proved under “nice prime” condition by Ardakov, Wei and Zhang [Non-existence of reflexive ideals in Iwasawa algebras of Chevalley type, J. Algebra 320 2008, 1, 259–275; Reflexive ideals in Iwasawa algebras, Adv. Math. 218 2008, 3, 865–901]. This paper currently provides a new proof without the “nice prime” condition. As a consequence of the above-mentioned main result, we observe that the center of {\Omega_{G}} is trivial.

Two types of hydrophobic zeolites Y were prepared by treating the NaY-type zeolite with SiCl4, with or without subsequent hydrothermal treatment. X-ray diffraction analysis showed that the framework of the two modified zeolites Y are more perfect than that of the NaY one, and the Si/Al ratio is greatly enhanced by hydrothermal treatment. The determined sorption isotherms indicate an improvement of the ester-to-water sorption ratio with the increase in Si/Al ratio. When the zeolite-filled silicone membranes are used in separation of ethyl acetate - water mixture by pervaporation, both the total permeation flux and the selectivity to the ester are improved by the use of the hydrophobic zeolite Y as the filler in the membrane. The stronger the hydrophobicity of the zeolite Y, the higher the filled membrane selectivity.Key words: hydrophobic zeolites Y, silicone-filled membranes, ethyl acetate - water mixture, sorption, pervaporation.

The steady laminar flow and heat transfer of an incompressible, electrically conducting, non-Newtonian fluid in an eccentric annulus are studied in the presence of an external uniform magnetic field. The inner cylinder is subject to a constant heat flux while the outer cylinder is adiabatic and the viscous and Joule dissipations are taken into consideration. A numerical solution for the governing partial differential equations is developed and the influence of the magnetic field on both the velocity and temperature distributions are discussed.PACS Nos.: 47.65, 47.50, 47.15C

ABSTRACT The introduction of adult NiTi rotary file system for children was a revolution in the field of pediatric endodontics. With the use of these files, cost-effective, consistent obturations were made possible in shorter instrumentation time. The various restraints of adult rotary files such as file length and taper created the need for newer rotary file system. These voids were fulfilled with the advent of exclusive pediatric rotary file—Kedo-S file system. In this article, we have discussed how the innovative pediatric rotary files have made its mark overpowering the limitations of the existing adult rotary file system in children.

We review the latest advances in the analytical modelling of single file diffusion. We focus first on the derivation of the fractional Langevin equation that describes the motion of a tagged file particle. We then propose an alternative derivation of the very same stochastic equation by starting from the diffusion-noise formalism for the time evolution of the file density. [Formula: see text] Special Issue Comments: This article presents mathematical formulations and results on the dynamics in files with applied potential, yet also general files. This article is connected to the Special Issue articles about the zig zag phenomenon,72 advanced statistical properties in single file dynamics,73 and expanding files.74
