The Impact

The Elementary Christian Living teachers of the School of Saint Anthony conducted a survey among their pupils regarding the factors that make them happy. The purpose of this research is to bring awareness regarding the things that Elementary pupils value in life leading them to happiness. This will also serve as a glimpse of pupils’ values and to determine the factors that will motivate them in their everyday lives. The following results were derived from the study’s findings: Grade one pupils are happy when they are with their families and when they play toys and gadgets. Grade two pupils, on the other hand, are happy with their family, friends, toys, and gadgets. Moreover, Grade three pupils enjoy being with their family and friends, and with new toys and gifts. As for the grade four pupils, they enjoy bonding with their families and friends, when they eat their favorite food and when they see their teachers. Furthermore, Grade five pupils love their families and are happy with new gadgets and toys. They are also happy when they play with their pets and friends. Lastly, the family serves as an important factor that makes the grade 6 pupils happy. Friends, gadgets, high grades and praying to God are the other encouraging factors of the grade 6 pupils’ gladness. Findings reveal family as the top consistent factor that makes the Elementary pupils happy. They enjoyed the different activities and experiences they had with their family members. Toys and new gadgets were also consistent factors that make the lower school pupils happy. Relationships with friends, on the other hand, serves as an important factor that inspires the Middle School pupils to be happy. Among Filipinos, across time, the family remains as the source of happiness among children. This research recommends the parents to be more reflective of the moments they spend with their children and to be more sensitive to their interests and needs. This research implies the impact of families on their children’s emotional development and the deep significant marks they leave in the lives of their children.

Mohammad Taqi Amini is an erudite religious scholar and profoundthinker. He possesses an inquisitive mind which refuses to accept things attheir face value. He sets out to prove that the reconstruction of Islamic civilizationaims at striking a balance between the physical and the spiritual forcesinherent in men. He attempts an outline of the scheme of cultural reconstruction.Also, he mentions the effects and implications of Western civilizationon modern life and evaluates the impact of two conflicting ideologies.The author believes that for the manifestation of faith and the constructionof culture, the necessary good deeds are not mere rituals or outwardsigns of virtue. Good deeds, on the other hand, comprehend both the innerand outward facets of life and they comprehend the whole being of man.The inner life however, comes first; for without it a healthy community cannotcome into existence, nor can man's use of nature yield any common benefit.The author reveals that in the framework of Western civilizationmaterialism dominates, and materialism recognizes reason as the only sourceof knowledge. But according to the Islamic concept of cultural reconstruction,the spiritual dimension is the basis of everything and which recognizesthe combined guidance of reason, heart and revelation for the acquisitionof knowledge. In all spheres of life such a wholesome and all pervasive guidanceis needed. The guidance of one faculty is not enough.In Western culture, the essential nature of man is regarded as animalisticand therefore the nature of character is determined in terms of material powerand worldly gains. Only those qualities are valuable which have a direct bearingon worldly gains and material power. For example, in business, punctuality,patriotism, social sense, and natural interests are the criteria. On the otherhand, qualities which do not have any bearing on worldly gains are not valued.Rather, violation of these qualities is considered a merit. Qualities like modesty,chastity, affection, mutual friendship and love, caring for the family, generosityof heart, soft-heartedness, sincerity, humanity, and consideration for the rightsof others have no value for a Western mind.The Islamic scheme of cultural reconstruction, on the other hand, isbased on a Divine view of life. This view divides life into material and nonmaterialand insists that both are necessary for the perfection of humanity ...

Conflict is the central theme in this paper by raising the narrative of the dispute between Sara and Hagar in Genesis 16: 1-16 about the birth of Isaac and Ishmael. This paper aims to discuss the dynamics of the ongoing conflict between Sara and Hagar by relying on narrative and using several contexts close to the central theme. The author uses a narrative approach to discuss and analyze. The dispute between Sara and Hagar was a narrative in the style of the Yahwista writers of Genesis. It can see in the analysis that the narrative writer of the Book of Genesis 16: 1-16 uses conflict as a drive for the plot in composing themes. Abraham did not resolve the dispute. Sara and Hagar could not be reconciled and coexist comfortably. In the end, Hagar expelled by Abraham and went on his way of life. The impact of Abraham's failure to reconcile his two wives led to disharmony of relations between his descendants today in the Middle East. The findings also show that conflict management in this narrative is not visible. Abraham, as the head of the family, could be said to have failed to manage the dynamics of his marriage. But on the other hand, the analysis also concludes that the conflict shows God's intervention to bring about the results of His covenant to Abraham regarding the offspring born from the womb of Sarah, his wife.Abstrak Konflik adalah tema sentral di dalam paper ini dengan mengangkat narasi pertikaian antara Sara dan Hagar di dalam Kejadian 16:1-16 di seputar kelahiran Ishak dan Ismael. Paper ini bertujuan membahas dinamika konflik yang berlangsung antara Sara dan Hagar dengan mengandalkan narasi dan menggunakan beberapa konteks yang dekat dengan tema pokok. Penulis menggunakan metode pendekatan naratif untuk melakukan pembahasan dan analisis. Hal ini dilakukan karena pertikaian Sara dan Hagar adalah sebuah narasi yang menjadi gaya para penulis kitab Kejadian dari kelompok Yahwista. Di dalam analisis, penulis narasi Kitab Kejadian 16:1-16 menggunakan konflik sebagai drive bagi plot di dalam merangkai tema. Bahkan ditemukan fakta bahwa konflik tersebut tidak diselesaikan oleh Abraham. Sara dan Hagar tidak dapat hidup berdampingan dengan nyaman dan damai. Pada akhirnya Hagar diusir oleh Abraham dan menempuh jalan hidupnya sendiri. Dampak dari kegagalan Abraham memperdamaikan kedua istrinya berujung pada ketidakharmonisan hubungan di antara keturunannya hari ini di Timur Tengah. Temuan juga memperlihatkan bahwa manajemen konflik di dalam narasi ini tidak terlihat. Abraham, yang memiliki banyak perempuan dalam statusnya sebagai kepala keluarga, gagal mengelola dinamika di dalam pernikahan yang dijalaninya. Akan tetapi di sisi lain, analisis juga menyimpulkan bahwa konflik tersebut memperlihatkan campur tangan Tuhan untuk mewujudkan hasil perjanjian-Nya kepada Abraham tentang keturunan yang lahir dari rahim Sara.

Waiting is a universal experience and a ‘taken for granted’ form of time. However, it is given a social specificity when embodied by particular agents in particular settings. This paper reflects on the universal experience of waiting in the very particular setting of the prison, specifically a prison visitors’ centre; this is the space where families wait prior to visiting their incarcerated relatives. I draw on the literature of waiting and prisoners’ families, as well as my own empirical work and ethnographic observations of waiting families. In this work, I explore issues of power and agency, and explore the social relations which are orchestrated within and beyond this organisation of space and time. This paper aims to bring together two distinct areas of literature: one which explores how prisoners ‘do time’, and the other which explores the impact of imprisonment on the families outside. In marrying the two, this paper explores the temporal impact of the imprisonment on the family members of those incarcerated.

The Continuum

Abstract In the paper we present the selected properties of composition relation of the convergent and divergent permutations connected with commutation. We note that a permutation on ℕ is called the convergent permutation if for each convergent series ∑an of real terms, the p-rearranged series ∑ap(n) is also convergent. All the other permutations on ℕ are called the divergent permutations. We have proven, among others, that, for many permutations p on ℕ, the family of divergent permutations q on ℕ commuting with p possesses cardinality of the continuum. For example, the permutations p on ℕ having finite order possess this property. On the other hand, an example of a convergent permutation which commutes only with some convergent permutations is also presented.

The Impact

The opening of relationships between United States and Cuba could be a drive for a huge increase in the affluence of tourism to Cuba and especially to the coast areas. Cuba has been for many years an important tourist destination for people from many countries, but almost forbidden for US citizens. The proximity of the USA, its amount of population as well as their great acquisition power will increase in a very substantial way the demand for accommodation and other uses in the proximity of the coasts. There will be a need to implement a package of measures that reduce the impact of such sudden increase in the coastal line. On the other hand that augment in tourism could be an opportunity to improve the standard of life of Cubans. The consideration of different possibilities of such development, the analysis of the damages that each one could cause as well as the measures that could avoid, ameliorate or compensate such effects are the goals that are going to be presented in this paper.

Organizations are these days realizing the importance of women in the workforce and to tap that talent, organizations are now-a-days putting extra efforts. Workplaces were designed keeping men in mind and which has been intercepting women from continuing the competitive jobs and career along with the family responsibilities. On the other hand, there are various workplace barriers which are adding to the other problems. Women face several barriers at the workplace like sexual harassment, glass ceiling and gender stereotype.

The Impact

This book examines the impact that Athenian Old Comedy had on Greek writers of the Imperial era. It is generally acknowledged that Imperial-era Greeks responded to Athenian Old Comedy in one of two ways: either as a treasure trove of Atticisms, or as a genre defined by and repudiated for its aggressive humor. Worthy of further consideration, however, is how both approaches, and particularly the latter one that relegated Old Comedy to the fringes of the literary canon, led authors to engage with the ironic and self-reflexive humor of Aristophanes, Eupolis, and Cratinus. Authors ranging from serious moralizers (Plutarch and Aelius Aristides) to comic writers in their own right (Lucian, Alciphron), to other figures not often associated with Old Comedy (Libanius) adopted aspects of the genre to negotiate power struggles, facilitate literary and sophistic rivalries, and provide a model for autobiographical writing. To varying degrees, these writers wove recognizable features of the genre (e.g., the parabasis, its agonistic language, the stage biographies of the individual poets) into their writings. The image of Old Comedy that emerges from this time is that of a genre in transition. It was, on the one hand, with the exception of Aristophanes’s extant plays, on the verge of being almost completely lost; on the other hand, its reputation and several of its most characteristic elements were being renegotiated and reinvented.

BACKGROUND: The impact of paediatric upper limb difference may extend beyond the child themselves to their parents and other family members. Previous research has found that feelings of shock, numbness and loss are common amongst parents and that peer support can be a buffer against stress. OBJECTIVE: The current study aimed to explore the experiences of parents of children with limb difference, and the role of services and prosthetic devices in these experiences. METHODS: Nine parents of children with limb difference participated in either a group (n= 2) or individual (n= 7) interview. RESULTS: Analysis of the interview transcripts revealed four themes – ‘grief and guilt’, ‘prosthesis as a tool for parental adjustment’, ‘support’ and ‘fun and humour’. CONCLUSIONS: Parents may employ coping strategies to help them adjust to their child’s limb difference, including use of a prosthesis, accessing support from statutory services and peers, and use of fun and humour within the family.

Lamprocapnos spectabilis (L.) Fukuhara (bleeding heart) is valued both in the horticultural and pharmaceutical markets. Despite its great popularity, information on the in vitro tissue culture technology in this species is limited. There is also little knowledge on the application of plant extracts in the tissue culture systems of plants other than orchids. The aim of this study is to compare the utility of traditional plant growth regulators (PGRs) and natural extracts—obtained from the coconut shreds, as well as oat, rice, and sesame seeds—in the micropropagation and cryopreservation of L. spectabilis ‘Gold Heart’ and ‘White Gold’. The biochemical analysis of extracts composition is also included. In the first experiment related to micropropagation via axillary buds activation, the single-node explants were cultured for a 10-week-long propagation cycle in the modified Murashige and Skoog medium fortified either with 1.11 µM benzyladenine (BA) and 1.23 µM indole-3-butritic acid (IBA) or with 10% (v/v) plant extracts. A PGRs- and extract-free control was also considered. In the cryopreservation experiment, the same 10% (v/v) extracts were added into the medium during a seven-day preculture in the encapsulation-vitrification cryopreservation protocol. It was found that the impact of natural additives was cultivar- and trait-specific. In the first experiment, the addition of coconut extract favoured the proliferation of shoots and propagation ratio in bleeding heart ‘Gold Heart’. Rice extract, on the other hand, promoted callus formation in ‘White Gold’ cultivar and was more effective in increasing the propagation ratio in this cultivar than the conventional plant growth regulators (4.1 and 2.6, respectively). Sesame extract suppressed the development of the explants in both cultivars analysed, probably due to the high content of polyphenols. As for the second experiment, the addition of plant extracts into the preculture medium did not increase the survival level of the cryopreserved shoot tips (sesame and oat extracts even decreased this parameter). On the other hand, coconut extract, abundant in simple sugars and endogenous cytokinins, stimulated a more intensive proliferation and growth of shoots after rewarming of samples. Analysing the synergistic effect of conventional plant growth regulators and natural extracts should be considered in future studies related to L. spectabilis.
