The present status about wastewater treatment at highway affiliated facilities of China including characteristics of wastewater and treatment technology, the effect of wastewater treatment were investigated. It was found that wastewater quantity was mainly depending on traffic volume entering the service area. Integrated process of wastewater treatment was the main technology used at highway affiliated facilities. 80.4% of the total devices discharge the water which can meet the “Integrated Wastewater Discharge Standard (8978-1996)”. About 69.6% of water was discharged into the road ditches, 22.2% was used for greening and flushing toilet. 3.9% of water evaporated naturally, 2.7% of water was discharged into the river, and only 1.6% was used for agricultural irrigation. The results provided scientific reference for the construction, improvement and management of wastewater treatment device at highway affiliated facilities by relevant departments in the future.

Spinal Cord Injured

The purpose of this study was to examine the use of the Leisure Activities Blank (McKechnie, 1975) with males who had sustained spinal cord injuries. It was hypothesized that after treatment and time for adjustment, persons with spinal cord injuries would have higher scores on the Leisure Activities Blank (LAB) than they would within 3 months of hospitalization. Also, the male profile derived from persons with spinal cord injuries was compared with the normative male profile established by McKechnie (1975). The t-tests between means of pretest and posttest scores on the Future categories (male profile) of the LAB revealed no significant differences. However, significant differences (p < .01) were found between the nondisabled and disabled groups in 6 of the 8 categories on the Future LAB. No differences were found between the two disability groups (paraplegics and quadriplegics) on the Leisure Activities Blank.

The study aimed to identify the credibility level of electronic press sites and their correlation with the reliability level as seen by the Saudi elite. To verify the aim, the study followed the descriptive approach. The study sample consisted of (102), representing the audience of the Saudi academic elite and media who use Internet as general and electronic press sites in particular, (Media faculty members of Saudi universities), the study was applied to the Saudi newspaper websites such as (Okaz newspaper, Middle East newspaper, Riyadh newspaper, and Sabk newspaper). The researcher conducted special criteria for the study of website reliability standards of the newspaper. The field study, survey applying, and data collection were conducted in October and November 2018. This study showed the following results: There is a statistically significant correlation between the exposure intensity of the Saudi elite to the study sample websites and their reliability level on it. This means that the greater the exposure of the Saudi elite to the electronic press sites, the greater the level of their reliability on it, and proved a statistically significant correlation between the intensity of the exposure of the Saudi elite to the electronic press sites of the study sample and the credibility level. It also showed a significant correlation between the intensity of the exposure of the Saudi elite to the website’s contents of the study press sample and the motivations of its pursuance in the future. The study concludes a number of recommendations, the most important of which is that the press websites should be concerned with the standard of interaction in terms of communication with the author, and conduct studies on the contact persons who working in the field of newspaper websites to find out the most important pressures and factors affecting their credibility of transferring information.

Social Protection Systems

Social protection systems are in a major process of transformation. Solutions from the past are no longer valid, or at least valid without important adaptations, to address future adequacy, sustainability, and quality of social protections systems. Ageing, changes in the world of work and in the evolving aspirations of citizens will impact, even more than today, on the features of the welfare of the future. Supporting a social investment approach in the agenda of modernization to be pursued, which recognize the relevant role to be played by social innovation, will be a key aspect of the reforms that are needed. ICTs would help in ensuring cost effective services, reducing fragmentation, and favouring integrated social services. This will be, no doubt, a multi-faceted and complex process, but there are choices that can make a difference in maximizing the potential that ICT, s can bring: An adequate leading role of public authorities and institutions at different territorial levels; a full involvement of all relevant stakeholders in a framework of reinforced and changing relationships; and a strategic outcome-based approach, supported by evidence-outcomes will contribute to unleash this potential. This article analyses, based on relevant successful experiences, some of the major interactions involved in the development and translation of enabling-ICTs to the fulfilment of social policy objectives.
