Full textAbstract:
The short-nosed fruit bat <i>Cynopterus sphinx</i> (Chiroptera: Pteropodidae) constructs shelters by severing stems of the curtain creeper, <i>Vernoniu scundens</i>, and stems and leaves of the mast tree, <i>Polyalthia longifoliu</i>, creating partially enclosed cavities (stem tents) in which to roost. Our observations indicate that the construction and maintenance of stem tents are primarily, if not exclusively, the behaviour of single males. A stem tent is formed in <i>V. scundens</i> when a single male <i>C. sphinx severs</i> up to 300 small- to medium-sized stems creating a partially flattened, bell-shaped cavity, and in <i>P. fongifolia</i> when a male severs a few medium- to small-sized branches and many leaf petioles, creating an entry/exit portal and space in which to roost. A tent constructed in <i>V. scandens</i> is completed in approximately 30 d, whereas one in <i>P. longifoliu</i> is completed in about 50 d. Stem-tent construction takes place mostly at night, but some stem chewing occurs in late afternoon. At night a stem tent is occupied by a single male, whereas females are usually absent. During the day the number of bats occupying completed tents is highly variable, ranging from two to 19 females (and their pups) and a single adult male. Tent construction is annually bimodal, which corresponds to a biannual breeding season. A dominant male sometimes deposits saliva on branches inside his tent cavity and actively defends this space from intrusions by other males. Both behaviours suggest forms of scent marking and territorial display. Our observations indicate that dominant males construct tents, recruit females and then defend the tents (and their female occupants) for the purpose of gaining reproductive access. The variance in harem group size indicates that some tent-making males are more successful than others in recruiting females.

Full textAbstract:
Marital rape is any undesirable sexual acts through a partner or ex-husband, dedicated without consent and/or opposite of someone's will, acquired by means of pressure, or hazard of force, intimidation or when a person is unable to consent. These sexual demonstrations incorporate intercourse, butt-centric or oral sex, constrained sexual conduct with others, and other sexual exercises that are considered by the casualty as corrupting, embarrassing, difficult and undesirable. Women who is raped through their husband is eventually raped regularly. They experience now not only effective vaginal rape, however also oral and anal rape. Husband often rape other halves whilst wife can be asleep, or use coercion, verbal threats, bodily violence, or guns to pressure very own other halves into having non-consensual sex with them. Marital rape is a grave offence that thousands and thousands of ladies worldwide need to go through and face such abuse on everyday basis. It is hard to acquire accurate facts and rape and violence adverse ladies inside the own family, in element due to the fact girls are undesired to document incidents, as ladies raped by their spouses might also hesitate to record due to circle of relatives loyalty, fear in their abuser’s revenge, incapacity to leave the connection, securing the fortune of their children, or the truth that there aren't any strict laws in force protective the sufferers of marital rape. Marital rape is specifically complex due to the fact the complicated, private form of marital relation makes it difficult for the sufferer to even see herself as a sufferer. Let alone reporting the offending act to the Government, that's why Marital Rape is one of the relatively underneath-stated violent crimes. Even the ladies who do keep in mind themselves sufferers are disinclined to approach the government because they may be financially depend upon their husbands, and reporting the matter should thoroughly bring about withdrawal of monetary aid leaving them and their children without meals and shelter.

Full textAbstract:
Dogmatic discourse and institutionalized control build a totalitarian state on two main pillars: propaganda and indoctrination. Our study analyzes the phenomena of cultural mimesis and ideological transplantation inside the Romanian communist system. The periphery and centre represent concepts that help us in the process of constructing our cultural theory about the propaganda system and its evolution during the years before the abolition of the monarchy, 1946-1947. The study is based mainly on archive documents. Therefore, we followed up the chronological paths in which the propaganda was used as an external weapon, and also as an internal indoctrination.

Aerospace and Mechanical Engineering 18, no. 4 (2020): 96–105. http://dx.doi.org/10.18287/2541-7533-2019-18-4-96-105.
Full textAbstract:
Alongside the development of methods of intensifying convective heat transfer inside the blade, development of methods of local improvement of the efficiency of film cooling of the blade’s surface is still of immediate interest. The film is formed on the blade surface in conditions of high-camber shape and low initial velocity of the gas flow in the vicinity of the leading edge with its subsequent abrupt acceleration. The paper presents some data on the peculiarities of film formation on the back and pressure side of the blade in the vicinity of the leading edge. Experimental temperature distribution over the adiabatic wall was obtained with the use of a FLIR-E 64501 thermal imager. It was found that the conditions for the film formation on the blade back are more favorable than those on the pressure side. It manifests itself in the fact that optimal blowing parameters on the blade back are considerably lower than those on the pressure side. The use of V-shaped dimples located on the wall immediately behind the holes for blowing was suggested as a measure for local improvement of film cooling efficiency. The efficiencies of film cooling in the formation of a curtain, without the use and with the use of V-shaped dimples behind the holes for blowing were compared. Local improvement of efficiency and uniformity of film cooling distribution with the use of V-shaped dimples behind the holes for blowing was observed.

Full textAbstract:
Eavesdropping scenes, where one of the characters eavesdrops or spies on one or several of the other characters (usually with the knowledge of at least one of them) will serve as my point of departure for exploring the relations between tragedy, comedy and philosophy. The eavesdropper is a spectator inside the fictional world who because of what he (and most frequently it is a male) learns by eavesdropping or just by carrying out this act of transgression is transformed into a victim. I exemplify with Polonius (in Hamlet, III, 4) and Orgon (in Tartuffe, IV, 5), who are physically situated in a focal (liminal) point where the eavesdroppers become vulnerable and can quickly be transformed from tragic to comic figures and vice versa, transgressing the generic borderlines between tragedy, melodrama, comedy and farce. There are also many instances where philosophical discourses originate from an eavesdropping situation, the most obvious being the form of teaching practiced by Pythagoras, lecturing to his students from behind a curtain. My article also examines examples of eavesdropping in the writings of Plato and Walter Benjamin.

Full textAbstract:
They were the deadliest ships of World War II--nine German commerce raiders disguised as peaceful cargo ships, flying the flags of neutral and allied nations. In reality, these heavily armed warships roamed the world's oceans at will, like 20th-century pirates. They struck unsuspecting freighters and tankers out of the darkness of night or from behind a curtain of fog and mist. For almost three years they led the Royal Navy on a deadly chase from sea to sea, seeding Allied ports with hundreds of mines and, on one occasion, even bombarding a shore installation. Masquerading as unarmed merchantmen, the raiders carried an awesome array of weapons cleverly hidden behind false structures and concealed inside empty packing crates on their decks. Seaplanes and motorboats helped them seek out their victims on the vast seas. They then fed off of these unsuspecting targets, pumping fuel from their prey into their own tanks and taking food from captured pantries to feed their own crews and the thousands of prisoners that they picked up along the way. These secret ships also acted as supply ships for U-boats, helping their fellow hunters remain at large for longer periods. At sea for months--or even years--those raider sailors lucky enough to survive were hailed as heroes when they returned home.
