AbstractAnti-doping programs need to preserve and promote what is essential in sport and that is sport spirit and achieving perfection through the development of its own natural talents, in order to raise awareness about the importance of fair play and creating an environment that supports the sport without doping. These programs should be directed to the athletes and young people by creating a positive and long-term impact on the choices they make. Thanks to games that are used for children in preschool and primary school age it is possible to efficiently and timely impact on the development character and virtues because it is incomparably more difficult to form character and moral values in already formed athletes than in childrens who are just getting to know the world of sport and everything what he is carries. Childrens need to be instilled the importance of physical exercise and the importance of participation in sport without prohibited resources and methods that roughly violate the ideal of fair play and on that way promote at childrens health, fairness and equality for all athletes. Fair play was created out of chivalry and gentlemanly in the middle ages where many reformers proposed sport and games with the aim of education and strengthening moral values in children. Teaching children the ideals of fair play in which the sport is based, and their continued involvement in sports activities with special accent on the pedagogical aspect leads to raising the awareness of moral values and ideals of sports chivalry. Developing awareness among children about fair play and anti-doping implies greater satisfaction with the results achieved in sports activities, which is a win at all costs and with the use of illegal resourses worthless, and victors would not be able to refer to with pride.

The Ideal

Business is a social entity which inevitably effects the quality of human life. Its success in supporting human life in general and, particularly, the long-term economic prospects it aims to achieve, require the real commitment of its agents to take moral values seriously in doing business. Instead of moral minimalism, a good and healthy business necessitates every businessman/woman to act beyond economic and legal interests to embrace “the genius of AND” as the ideal approach in doing business. Real commitment on seriously taking into account moral considerations in the process of business decision-making would in turn, in the long term, bring greater economic opportunities and, hence, enhance the prospect of business. At the centre of a good and healthy business is its agents’ commitment on taking all stakeholders’ interests to be their own. Doing justice to all stakeholders and to the public at large is, therefore, the life-blood of good and healthy businesses. A moral culture in business requires moral models to flourish and be shared commonly among all business agents. <b>Kata-kata kunci:</b> Tanggung jawab ekonomi; tanggung jawab hukum; tanggung jawab moral; intangible values; stakeholders; model moral.

The Ideal

Every Expo has constantly played a significant role in the exploration of us. Exploration here indicates a realizable dream rather than a pure Utopia. To describe this definition exactly, a new word “Ourtopia” is created, blending “Our” into “Topos” from ancient Greek, describing an attainable one through the transformation of the ideal into the real with a plurality of thought and action. Under this unique context, Shanghai Expo provides an opportunity to achieve Ourtopia from choosing of Expo sites, rebuilding of UBPA, reconstruction of industrial heritage itself. Through Shanghai Expo, industrial heritage succession is defined as a period of balancing different values, especially culture and economic. And, industrial heritage innovation between Pre-and-Post Expo must be based on analyzing these three comparisons---event-based VS. necessity, temporary VS. permanent, super-scale VS. comfortable-scale. Accordingly, other cities study from Shanghai Expo sample in terms of three perspectives--- Mega event VS. non-mega event, short periods VS. long-term impact, nationality VS. locality, thereby exploring industrial heritage potential value.

Introduction: Community Health Education (CHE) is a development strategy which aims to address the needs of communities in developing countries through an emphasis on moral values and civic education. The syllabus of the CHE program guides a trainer to find the needs of a developing community and take a moral values-based approach to health issues such as alcoholism, smoking, injuries to accidents, and sexually-transmitted illnesses. The fundamental philosophy is that of development as opposed to aid. Methods: In November 2010 and February 2011, this training was conducted for leaders and volunteers from two Cambodian Non-Governmental Organizations (NGOs) involved in HIV prevention education and training in Cambodia. In order to investigate long-term impact, participants who underwent training sessions in November 2010 and February 2011 also underwent Focus Group Discussions (FGDs) and Key Informant Interviews (KIIs). Results: A total of 28 participants partook in the 3 FGDs and 5 participants took part in the KIIs. Participants were able to recall a number of moral values and concepts from the training. These included forgiveness, love, altruism, unity, respect, empathy, teamwork, optimism, and hopefulness. The organizations were then able to use the CHE model to change the way their organization worked together to achieve the goals in their communities. The participants were also able to use the teaching modalities employed by CHE sessions in their own work with their target communities. Conclusion: The CHE training system has had a number of positive effects. They have influenced the personal lives of the participants, the way their organizations are run and the way they reach out to their target communities. In light of the themes identified in our results, we propose further research to compare the relative magnitude of all of these effects on these organizations in the long run compared to the short run.

Purpose. to analyze the effectiveness of soft tissue surgical correction of equine-flat-valgus-feet deformity in children with cerebral palsy. Material and methods. A retrospective analysis of clinical and X-ray findings of 47 patients (86 feet) with equino-flat-valgus deformity was performed. All patients were treated surgically. They were divided into two groups by age: Group I - 23 children (4-7 y.o.); Group II - 24 children (8-11 y.o.). The neurological status was examined in patients with the motor development of level I - III (by GMFCS classification) who had hemiparesis, diplegia and tetroparesis. A comparative analysis was made with a reference group which consisted of 30 children (56 feet), aged 4-11, who had exostotic chondrodysplasia or trauma of the ligamentous apparatus in one foot without neurological pathology and feet deformities. Results. One year after surgery, a significant improvement in clinical and radiological parameters comparing to preoperative findings was registered in patients of both studied groups. Most parameters were close to the established reference intervals. In Group I, three years later at the follow-up examination no significant difference was revealed in similar parameters obtained three years later and one year later after the surgery. However, in Group II three years later a negative dynamics was seen in most of studied parameters when compared with reference values and with results of the first postoperative year. Such outcomes demonstrate high efficiency of soft foot tissue surgery in children under 8. A significant decrease in clinical and radiological parameters after similar amount of surgical correction in children of primary school age (8-11 y.o.), which were under the long-term observation, may indicate the ineffectiveness of such techniques at this age. Evaluation of the functional status by the Gillette functional assessment scale three years after the surgery revealed the increased functional status in 78.26% of patients from Group I and in 41.66% from Group II. In some children from Group II (primary school age), there was a negative dynamics in their functional status. Conclusion. In generally, the obtained data indicate good prospects for improving the functional status in the postoperative period in children of both groups. However, the existing negative dynamics in children from Group II (8-11 y.o.) indicates a weak prospective for a long-term surgical deformity correction of the foot ligamentous apparatus because the coming period is a period of rapid growth and increased loading on the musculoskeletal system of a child with cerebral palsy.

The article shows the results of a theoretical and experimental research on the study of an unconscious attitude at school age. The given data shows that educational activities and systematic long-term sports activities at school age improve the process of differentiation of the subject’s attitude, transforming a static attitude into a dynamic one. An unconscious attitude, acting as a psychological determinant, affects the success of educational activities and the sportsmanship of athletes and schoolchildren. Formed psychological determinants of the unconscious sphere in the development of the personality of schoolchildren, act as psychological factors and conditions (independent variable) that affect the success of educational activities and sportsmanship.

Abstract. Background: There has been no systematic work on the short- or long-term impact of the installation of crisis phones on suicides from bridges. The present study addresses this issue. Method: Data refer to 219 suicides from 1954 through 2013 on the Skyway Bridge in St. Petersburg, Florida. Six crisis phones with signs were installed in July 1999. Results: In the first decade after installation, the phones were used by 27 suicidal persons and credited with preventing 26 or 2.6 suicides a year. However, the net suicide count increased from 48 in the 13 years before installation of phones to 106 the following 13 years or by 4.5 additional suicides/year (t =3.512, p < .001). Conclusion: Although the phones prevented some suicides, there was a net increase after installation. The findings are interpreted with reference to suggestion/contagion effects including the emergence of a controversial bridge suicide blog.

The present study examined age differences in time-based prospective memory (TBPM) in primary school age children and tested the role of self-initiated memory retrieval and strategic time monitoring (TM) as possible developmental mechanisms. Fifty-four children were recruited from local primary schools (27 younger children, mean age = 7.2 ± 0.55 years, and 27 older children, mean age = 9.61 ± 0.71 years). The task was a driving game scenario in which children had to drive a vehicle (ongoing task) and to remember to refuel before the vehicle runs out of gas (TBPM task, i.e., the fuel gauge served as child-appropriate time equivalent). Fuel gauge was either displayed permanently (low level of self-initiation) or could only be viewed on demand by hitting a button (high level of self-initiation). The results revealed age-dependent TBPM differences with better performance in older children. In contrast, level of self-initiated memory retrieval did not affect TBPM performance. However, strategies of TM influenced TBPM, as more frequent time checking was related to better performance. Patterns of time checking frequency differed according to children’s age and course of the game, suggesting difficulties in maintaining initial strategic TM in younger children. Taken together, the study revealed ongoing development of TBPM across primary school age. Observed age differences seemed to be associated with the ability to maintain strategic monitoring.
