The aim of this article is to identify the main mechanisms leading to the NEET status in Italy, Romania, and Bulgaria. It does so by highlighting the differences amongst them and verifying how place of residence effectively affects the connected propensity to this status after having controlled for many personal characteristics through a series of probit models. Furthermore, multiple correspondence analyses produce profound understanding of the NEET phenomenon and associated determinants. The results highlight the need to plan support actions tailored to specific NEET characteristics. Whilst the degree of urbanization impacts upon the NEET status throughout Romania and Bulgaria, Italy shows a strong divide between the North and the South. However, in all three countries there is a need to improve the education system and stimulate higher levels of education as the main measure of NEET prevention.

Rubber has been grown for long in the South and East of Thailand. Since 2005, rubber plantations have largely spread to new regions, in the North and above all in the Northeast. Tapping is one of the most important practices to optimize the yield of rubber plantations and farmers income [. If tapping practices are well documented in the traditional growing areas [2, , we lack information for the new rubber producing regions. And so far, no study has been done at the level of the country. Therefore, a survey was conducted with 219 rubber farmers from 10 provinces in four rubber producing regions to describe farmers tapping practices. The objective was to compare farmers practices in the different regions and try to identify some standardization or differentiation factors. Results show that tapping systems used by the farmers vary with the region but everywhere, even in the South and Centre east, the real tapping practices are not really intensive. Tapping practices seem to be linked to farmers rubber experience, the size of mature plantation, the rainfall and the length of the leaf-fall period. So finally, tapping days are irregularly distributed throughout the year which probably affects latex physiology and so, the potential yield of rubber plantations.

<p class="IABSSS">Study literature of Islamic Astronomy in case prayer times, is less from getting specific attention. Furthermore, the schedule of prayer times is very complex. Such as its still being distributed in form converting one to another area. It should be computed based on each district or city. Appearing new case that is coordinates point data (latitude and longitude) where used as center point computations. This thesis is researched the effect and importance implementation of center coordinate point from district or city in the determining of prayer times schedule. The research used mathemathic analytic descriptive and comparative analysis methods. With purpose to know in detail the comparation result from prayer times computations using center coordinate point and otherwise. The result of research shows the effect prayer times schedule can be applied for one district or city area. Meanwhile, computed prayer times schedule that use another center point coordinate not exactly can be applied in one district or city area. Though coordinate different value more than 0,5° and its position located in the south and east center coordinate point. Center coordinate point must be applied because at the base this coordinate point have been considered geographical aspect. Where in width side for the north, south, east and west have been considered and have the equilibrium distance.</p><p class="IABSSS">[]</p><p class="IABSSS">Kajian studi Astronomi Islam dalam persoalan waktu salat kurang mendapat perhatian khusus. Padahal persoalan jadwal waktu salat sangat komplek, seperti masih beredarnya jadwal waktu salat yang dikonversi dari satu daerah ke daerah lain. Sudah seharusnya jadwal waktu salat disusun berdasarkan kabupaten atau kota masing-masing. Persoalan baru yang muncul adalah data titik koordinat (lintang dan bujur) mana yang akan digunakan sebagai acuan perhitungannya. Dalam tulisan ini meneliti dampak dan perlunya implementasi titik koordinat tengah kabupaten atau kota dalam perhitungan jadwal waktu salat. Penelitian ini menggunakan metode deskriptif analitis matematis dan analisis komparatif, yang bertujuan untuk mengetahui secara detail hasil perbandingan perhitungan jadwal waktu salat dengan menggunakan titik koordinat tengah dan selain titik koordinat tengah. Penelitian ini menemukan bahwa, dampaknya jadwal waktu salat dapat diberlakukan untuk satu wilayah kabupaten atau kota. Sedangkan jadwal waktu salat yang diperhitungkan menggunakan selain titik koordinat tengah belum tentu dapat diberlakukan untuk satu wilayah kabupaten atau kota, apalagi selisih koordinatnya diatas 0,5° dan posisinya berada di sebelah selatan dan timur  dari titik koordinat tengah. Titik koordinat tengah perlu diimplementasikan, karena pada dasarnya titik koordinat ini telah mempertimbangkan aspek geografis. Dimana dalam segi luas untuk bagian utara, selatan dan timur, barat nya telah dipertimbangkan dan jaraknya pun seimbang.</p>

This chapter focuses on some of the occupations of the Negroes in Illinois after the Civil War. Even after the Civil War, colored persons were mostly confined to the field of domestic and personal service—as butler, coachman, maid, cook, housekeeper, valet, or janitor. Others who were gainfully employed were found in the occupations in agricultural work and at unskilled labor. The tasks at which Negroes were employed were a reflection of the limited opportunities afforded members of the race earlier in the South and of the fierce competition they met in the North when they attempted to find employment in fields other than those to which they were traditionally attached. This chapter examines the Negro's role in Illinois employment and the racial prejudice the race encountered in seeking to carve a place in the labor market.

The publication focuses on the study of ecological conditions of bird habitats in the steppe zone of Ukraine. The material is based on the original observations in the north-western part of the Azov Sea region over the period 2009-2018 and on the data from relevant literature sources. The impact of changes in ecological conditions of bird habitats was considered and analyzed. The objectives were to show stages of changes in ecological conditions of the Ukrainian steppe and to carry out a comparative analysis of original ornithological data with the data of other authors.

Globalization challenges, which affected the geopolitical and economic processes, labor market transformation and education internationalization have shaped the urgency of the problem. The purpose of the article is to compare vocational education systems in Germany and Turkey (using the dual system as an example) in order to identify the possibilities of transferring ideas and practices of the dual education system. A comparative analysis is the leading research method, which uses the context, transfer and forecasting methodology. Description and comparison of the context main elements allow determining the possibilities and conditions of the dual education system transfer. The findings provide an opportunity to identify transfer risks and predict the consequences of borrowing. The research results significance consists in context, transfer, and forecasting substantiating as the comparative analysis elements and applying this methodology to the processes of professional education.

<p><strong>Aims</strong>: This research will provide an overview of the comparative analysis of watershed characteristics in Bali which are differentiated from watersheds flowing to the north, and watersheds flowing to the south of Bali Province. The aim is to determine the characteristics of each, and proper sustainable management for each watershed. <strong>Methodology and Results:</strong> This is a descriptive, quantitative research that analyzes and compares the characteristics of the Saba watershed and Unda watershed, where the characteristics analyzed are morphometric and hydrological.  From the analysis, it was observed that the Unda watershed, which has a flow direction to the south of the island of Bali, and the Saba watershed, flowing to the north of the island of Bali, possess several differences and similarities. The similarities include rainfall patterns, high temperatures, and the comparison values between Qmax and Qmin is significant. Meanwhile, the differences include the Saba watershed slope being steeper than the Unda watershed, and the Saba has young geomorphic features, while the Unda watershed possesses advanced geomorphic features. <strong>Conclusion, significance, and impact of study:</strong> Differences in watershed characteristics lead to differences in the management carried out. Furthermore, in terms of hydrology, where there are lesser differences, the sustainable management of the Saba and Unda Watershed also require conservation in form of a reservoir (weir or dam). This is to enable the storage of water in the rainy period for the dry season.</p><p> </p>

AbstractWithin the context of the internationalisation of higher education, language matters have become increasingly prominent for universities across a wide variety of contexts. This has made the higher education domain an attractive site for applied linguists and sociolinguists to investigate in close detail. One relatively consolidated idea is that contexts in which English has made further incursions in universities are more internationalised than those settings where English has penetrated to a lesser extent. In line with that, a supposed north-south divide in European higher education has been conceived of, with universities in the north leading in terms of internationalisation efforts, while those in the south lag behind. In this article, I problematise this idea and suggest instead that a narrower and more focused contrastive analysis between language ecologies across different countries and contexts might be more useful. In doing that, we can thus avoid the dangers of binarism and lumping that can come associated to holding preconceived geographical borders. In particular, the comparative analysis proposed here allows us to highlight two key issues that seem to be highly pressing in present-day higher education domains: the language-ideological and the socio-economic. I build the argument in the paper by utilising empirical material from Estonia and Catalonia, two contexts that have been at the centre of my own work in recent years.

AbstractLong-term cyclic variations in the distribution of prominences and intensities of green (530.3 nm) and red (637.4 nm) coronal emission lines over solar cycles 18–23 are presented. Polar prominence branches will reach the poles at different epochs in cycle 23: the north branch at the beginning in 2002 and the south branch a year later (2003), respectively. The local maxima of intensities in the green line show both poleward- and equatorward-migrating branches. The poleward branches will reach the poles around cycle maxima like prominences, while the equatorward branches show a duration of 18 years and will end in cycle minima (2007). The red corona shows mostly equatorward branches. The possibility that these branches begin to develop at high latitudes in the preceding cycles cannot be excluded.
