The Relationship

The phenomenon of light and shadow is discussed by many sciences, including art criticism. And what does the shadow really represent? What is the relationship between light and shadow? When and why do we use shadows as a technique in theatrical performances? This work explores the shadow as a consequence of the action of light on an object that does not allow it to pass through - the "gray shadow" in theatrical performances. There Are numerous theatrical performances in which diverse projections and shadows are used as expressive means. We use shadow in the theater when we want to know, to see the unlit, hidden side of someone or something. This physical phenomenon has always attracted the attention of people of different cultures and eras and naturally found application in theatrical performances. They involve in either multi-colored or gray shadows. When an object does not transmit light completely appears - a "gray shadow", denoting only the contours of a certain object, the silhouette of the object used in the theatrical performance. Folk art in the form of riddles, games and other things created phrases that are an important guide in understanding and determining the laws of their existence in theatrical works. Shadows turned out to be interesting and useful in training actors and directors of the puppet theater.

Picture Element

It is well known that a large flux of electrons must pass through a specimen in order to obtain a high resolution image while a smaller particle flux is satisfactory for a low resolution image. The minimum particle flux that is required depends upon the contrast in the image and the signal-to-noise (S/N) ratio at which the data are considered acceptable. For a given S/N associated with statistical fluxtuations, the relationship between contrast and “counting statistics” is s131_eqn1, where C = contrast; r2 is the area of a picture element corresponding to the resolution, r; N is the number of electrons incident per unit area of the specimen; f is the fraction of electrons that contribute to formation of the image, relative to the total number of electrons incident upon the object.

The Relationship

Before 1991, the relationship between the protection of the environment and international trade was an arcane specialty that attracted little attention. In 1971 the GATT Council established a Working Group on Environmental Measures and International Trade. This group did not even meet for over twenty years.Everything changed with the decision in the Tuna/Dolphin I case, in which a GATT dispute resolution panel declared a United States embargo on tuna caught by fishing methods causing high dolphin mortality to be illegal. The Tuna/Dolphin I decision produced an explosion of rhetoric in both learned journals and the popular press. It was also a very interesting clash of very different “cultures,” trade specialists versus environmentalists. At die outset, neither group knew much about the other. Now, however, the legal and political issues have been identified and ventilated, mutual understanding has increased, and the process has begun to reconcile two values that are absolutely essential to the well-being of mankind: protection of the environment and international free trade.

Science or Art? How Aesthetic Standards Grease the Way Through the Publication Bottleneck but Undermine Science

The current crisis in psychological research involves issues of fraud, replication, publication bias, and false positive results. I argue that this crisis follows the failure of widely adopted solutions to psychology’s similar crisis of the 1970s. The untouched root cause is an information-economic one: Too many studies divided by too few publication outlets equals a bottleneck. Articles cannot pass through just by showing theoretical meaning and methodological rigor; their results must appear to support the hypothesis perfectly. Consequently, psychologists must master the art of presenting perfect-looking results just to survive in the profession. This favors aesthetic criteria of presentation in a way that harms science’s search for truth. Shallow standards of statistical perfection distort analyses and undermine the accuracy of cumulative data; narrative expectations encourage dishonesty about the relationship between results and hypotheses; criteria of novelty suppress replication attempts. Concerns about truth in research are emerging in other sciences and may eventually descend on our heads in the form of difficult and insensitive regulations. I suggest a more palatable solution: to open the bottleneck, putting structures in place to reward broader forms of information sharing beyond the exquisite art of present-day journal publication.

Purpose The purpose of this paper is to examine the effects of cultural differences and the types of relationship closeness involved in recipients’ emotional and behavioral reactions after receiving disliked gifts. Design/methodology/approach Collecting data from Thailand and the USA, two experiments were conducted in a 2 (self-construal: independent/interdependent) × 2 (relationship closeness: close/distant) between-subjects design. Study 1 explores the recipients’ feelings and reactions upon receipt of a disliked gift. Study 2 explores the disposition process for a disliked gift. Findings The results show that a recipient’s emotions, reaction and disposition process can be affected by cultural differences and relationship closeness: specifically that close and distant relationships moderate the relationship between self-construal and gift-receiving attitudes and behaviors. Research limitations/implications Future research can investigate representative groups from other countries to broaden the generalizability of the findings. Practical implications This understanding can guide gift-givers when selecting gifts for close or distant recipients across cultures. Additionally, it can help retailers develop and introduce new marketing strategies by applying self-construal as a marketing segmentation tool for gift purchase and disposition. Originality/value This research is among the first studies to offer insights into how individuals in different cultures manage disliked gifts they receive from people in either close or distant relationships.

The Relationship

The socio-legal perspective on the alcohol legislation, including the norms concerned with the relationship between individuals and alcoholic drinks, helps answering some essentials questions: what was/is the "social construction" of the alcohol problem in different eras and different cultures and, consequently, which objectives are deemed to be worthy of pursuit through the creation or amendment of legislation? Which social actors have the ability, in a given period of time, to inscribe the relevance of innovative alcohol legislation on the political agenda and what kind of dialectic is used among those who champion points of view, competences and above all, different interests? Which interests and values would appear to meet with legislatory protection time after time? What tools, of the ample range available, are chosen to achieve the aims set out? To what extent is legislation implemented (or not implemented), and why? Which aspects of the implementation process prove to be most significant, i.e. define the actual content of the legislation "in force", and are therefore tangibly experienced by the law's end target? How much of an impact does legislation have on behavior which is subject to regulation or on problems which stem from such behavior?

Abstrak Bagaimana merawat aset-aset organisasi seni pertunjukan? Sebagai organisasi yang memberdayakan “jasa”, pengelolaan organisasi selau mengacu pada kehadiran penonton dukungan sponsor (funding), sehingga sangat membutuhkan hadirnya kepercayaan penonton kepada organisasi yang berkelanjutan. Organisasi seni pertunjukan cenderung tidak memperhatikan aspek pemeliharaan, karena lebih fokus pada aspek karya. Oleh sebab itu, penelitian ini mengajukan klasifikasi investasi aset terlihat (tangible asset)dan aset tidak terlihat (intangible asset)pada pengelolaan organisasi Papermon Puppet Theatre (PPT). Sembilan orang narasumber diwawancarai untuk mendapatkan informasi terkait topik penelitian tersebut. Hasilnya menunjukkan pada era digital dewasa ini, sosial media sudah menjadi gaya hidup. Bahkan hampir sejajar dengan kebutuhan primer, sehingga setiap orang tidak bisa terlepas dari keberadaan sosial media. PPT berkewajiban selalu memberikan informasi-informasi kepada stakeholder terkait kegiatan PPT. Abstract How to take care of the assets of a performing arts organization? As an organization that empowers "services", the management of the organization always refers to the presence of audience sponsorship (funding), so it really requires the presence of audience trust in sustainable organizations. Performing arts organizations tend not to pay attention to maintenance aspects, because they are more focused on aspects of the work. Therefore, this study proposes the classification of tangible assets and intangible assets in the management of the Papermon Puppet Theater organization. Nine interviewees were interviewed to obtain information related to the research topic. The results show that in today's digital era, social media has become a lifestyle. In fact, it is almost equal to the primary needs, so that everyone cannot be separated from the existence of social media. PPT is obliged to always provide information to stakeholders regarding PPT activities.

In good times and in bad: The tumultuous relationship between the church and the organ - is divorce inevitable? Through the ages, a delicate relationship has existed between the church and the pipe organ. Since the 10th century, the organ established itself as a unique instrument in service of worship. This relationship was not always a steady one, and this article investigates the tumultuous affair between the two parties. In part one of the article, which is a historic perspective, the relationship is discussed by looking at different cultures and uses of the organ in the worship service. This gives a sense of when and how the relationship came into being and developed or deteriorated. In part two, the current situation in the Afrikaans Reformed service is explored by conducting several unstructured interviews with key role players in the theological and musical world of South Africa. In part three, the study ventures into speculating about the future of the organ in the worship service by briefly looking at the attitude of the organist and spirituality of the postmodern church goer. In essence, this article reflects on whether the marriage between church and music instrument is solid or on its way to the divorce court.Intradisciplinary and/or interdisciplinary implications: The relationship between organ and church has to be reconsidered. The use of the organ in the worship service has to be taken under scrutiny, and a new relationship agreement between the two partners has to be formulated.
