The purpose of this study was to investigate the potential relationship between hamstring flexibility and competitive level of Irish dancers. Since the premier of Riverdance in 1994, Irish dance has grown in population and has geologically spread to locations previously unassociated with Irish culture. Resulting from these changes has been the establishment of more and larger competitions, as well as increased athleticism in the dance form. This study followed a quasi-experimental approach, and dancers volunteered to participate. Participants were first asked verbal questions for secondary data collection and data on performance level. Hamstring flexibility was then measured using the Straight Leg Raise (SLR) test for analysis. The data support the conclusion that higher level Irish dancers have higher hamstring flexibility than lower level dancers. Irish dancers seeking to advance into higher competition levels may use this information to incorporate more flexibility building into their training. Likewise, Irish dance instructors may devote more instruction time to assisting their students in building their hamstring flexibility efficiently and properly. Future researchers may investigate similar studies with other physical aspects, such as flexibility in the quadriceps. Alternatively, researchers may investigate the extent to which Irish dance adjudicators seek out high hamstring flexibility in the dancers they judge in comparison to more traditional aspects of Irish dance.

Analysis of the data used was qualitative data analysis to seek the relationship between the influence of the Mount Agung eruption on the qaunitity of sculpture production and the distribution network of sculpture crafts in Sebatu Village. The results of this study indicate that sculpture crafts produced in Sebatu Village are a type of contemporary sculpture that is dominated by animal statues. The production capacity of sculpture crafts in Sebatu village after the eruption of Mount Agung has increased, contrary to when the eruption occurred tourists could not come directly to order sculpture and their production capacity had declined. The working system of sculpture craftsmen has started to run normally with increasing production capacity. The distribution network of sculpture crafts in Sebatu Village can be distributed in five ways through distribution to the Sukawati art market, Balinese souvenirs, shipping by sea, shipping via cargo and distribution to the villa. From the conclusion, the Gianyar Regency Government should provide capital support for the sculpture industry, especially in Sebatu Village, Tegallalang District.There is a need to increase capital for handicraft business owners by providing financial or credit assistance for sculpture.Thus, there will be many entrepreneurs who are growing and increasing their production.   Keywords: Statue Craft, Mount Agung Eruption, and Distribution Network.

The purpose of this study was to determine the quantitative relationship between parasite Demodex folliculorum and three different eyelash extension types: mink, sable and silk. In spite of the disruption of experimentation and the resulting necessary altercations due to the COVID-19 pandemic, the research method followed was quasi-experimental. Rather than directly assessing the correlation between eyelash extension types and Demodex folliculorum, the relationship both variables had with bacteria Escherichia coli and Staphylococcus epidermidis was examined to reach a conclusion. The process of experimenting and synthesizing prior information resulted in heavy usage of primary and secondary data to reach the conclusion that sable eyelash extensions comparatively promote the least growth of Demodex folliculorum and are therefore the safest option for eyelash extension users.

Abstract Objectives To examine the mediating effect of central obesity (measured by waist circumference [WC]) on the relationship between caffeine metabolite (1, 7-dimethylxanthine) and glycohemoglobin level, adjusting for covariates of age, gender, race/ethnicity, smoking, and alcohol intake. Methods Design: Publicly available data from the 2009–2010 National Health and Examination Surveys (NHANES) were used to conduct this secondary data analysis. NHANES collected data from respondents using in-home surveys and mobile examination centers. Subjects: For the current study, 1976 respondents were included. Respondents were included if they participated in data collection for caffeine consumption and ≥20 years of age. Respondents were excluded if a proxy was required for data collection or had pregnancy confirmation during the physical examination portion of data collection. Outcome Measures: Original NHANES variables, 1, 7-dimethylxanthine level, glycohemoglobin level, WC, age and gender, were used. Race/ethnicity, smoking, and alcohol were recoded to better address the aim of this study. Results Structural equation modeling showed that WC mediated the relationship between 1, 7-dimethylxanthine and glycohemoglobin level, adjusting for covariates. The total effect of 1, 7-dimethylxanthine on glycohemoglobin level was -.001 (indirect effect [.029 x .013] + direct effect [–.001]), adjusting for covariates, which suggests that the total effect was minimal. Age (β = .014, P < .001), non-White race (non-Hispanic Blacks: β = .28, P < .001; Hispanics: β = .29, P < .001, other ethnicities: β = .41, P = .003), smoking (β = .10, P = .014, ), and heavy drinking (β = –.24, P < .001, ) had significant effects on the relationship between 1, 7-dimethylxanthine and glycohemoglobin level. Conclusions Although WC mediated the relationship between 1, 7-dimethlyxanthine and glycohemoglobin level, minimal effects suggest that caffeine consumption should only be considered as part of a treatment regimen in combination with other interventions to reduce glycohemoglobin levels.

This study investigates the matter of the compatibility between International Humanitarian Law and Islamic concept of Jihad. The proponents of the theory of the acceptability of International Humanitarian Law in an Islamic context have been presenting the similarities between International Humanitarian Law and Islam. The opponents have been trying to point out the differences between International Humanitarian Law and Islam, especially on the violent concept of Jihad. This study looks at the theories of the existence or non-existence of a fundamental conflict between International Humanitarian Law and Islam by analysing the views of different schools of thoughts and rules of International Humanitarian Law in the context of Islamic Law of War (Jihad). The lack of the availability of a satisfactory study on the matter provides justification for the present study that aims to address the gap by making an important contribution to the knowledge in this area. The data for this study has been collected by using both primary and secondary sources of data collection. The primary data has been collected through this study. The available literature on the same topic has been collected as secondary data through libraries, books, journals, articles and using the internet sources. The analyses of the data lead us to the point where the relationship between International Humanitarian Law and Islam becomes clear and an assessment is made about the compatibility of International Humanitarian Law with Islam, on the Islamic concept of Jihad, that rejects the existence of a fundamental conflict between International Humanitarian Law and Islam.
