ABSTRACT: The region Capim Grosso has semiarid climate and scarce surface drainage. This article presents the results of hydrochemistry of groundwater these Bahia State area taking up the potability of groundwater for human and agriculture use. To achieve these objective water samples were collected from wells and conducted in situ measurements the physico-chemical parameters such as pH, eH, electrical conductivity, total dissolved solids, temperature, turbidity, dissolved oxygen and analysis measures in laboratories of the following components HCO3- , SO4 2- , NO3- , F- , PO4 3- , Cl- , Mg2 + , Na+ , Ca2 + , K+ , Ba2 + , Pb2 + , Zn2 + , Fe2 + , Mn2 + , Al3 + , Cu+ , using of fluorimetric techniques, titrimetric and espectrofométricos. The results indicate that groundwater is classified generally as magnesian and calcic chlorinated, highly salinated, with high hardness and exceptionally high risk of salinization of soils. From the point of view for potability, only the elements iron, zinc, copper and fluoride showed no impediment to domestic supply, all other elements exceeded the limits established by Brazilian law, so they are considered unfit for human consumption. Before all the results it is apparent that from a qualitative point of view, groundwater Capim Grosso has not appropriate hydrochemical characteristics for human consumption and agriculture, suggesting the state agencies of the State of Bahia management study from other sources catchment water to this region of the Brazilian semi-arid region.
Aptitude of Ground waters for Irrigation in the South-East Coastal Region of ...inventionjournals
Development of agricultural areas pressures on the availability of water resources in the South-East coastal region of Côte d'Ivoire (from Abidjan to Aboisso) require farmers to use groundwater for irrigation food and industrial crops. The objective of this study is to assess the aptitude of groundwater for irrigation in this region by using methods that take into account the Sodium Adsorption Report (SAR) and the Permeability Index (PI). The different results show that the SAR values range from 0.03 to 9.90 with an average of 1.83 while the PIs range from 5.11 to 210.77 with an average of 91.40. The C1S1 and C2S1 classes, corresponding to the water suitable for irrigation, represent 95% of the water sampled. In general, therefore, the sampled waters quality is suitable for irrigation except the boreholes waters of Memni (No. 59) and Palmafrique (No. 64).
The quality groundwater for irrigation in Fetzara basin, northeast AlgeriaInnspub Net
The Fetzara basin occupying an area of about 515 km2 is a part of the alluvial deposits of the Annaba plain. The main source of irrigation water in Fetzara basin is groundwater, hence its quality needs to be controlled; otherwise it can damage soil and reduce crop production. The aim of this study was to review hydro chemical processes that control the groundwater chemistry and to determine the suitability of groundwater for irrigation. Hydro chemical analysis has been carried out based on concentrations of Ca++, Mg++, Na+, K+, Cl-, SO4–, CO3– and HCO3-. Different irrigation quality parameters viz, salinity, Sodium Adsorption Ratio (SAR), sodium percentage (Na%), Residual Sodium Carbonate (RSC), Magnesium Hazards (MH), Kelly’s index (KI) and Permeability Index (PI) are calculated for the evaluation of groundwater quality for irrigation purposes. The evaluation of SAR (2.127-9.021) and EC (1240-6390 µS/cm) resulted in classification category ‘C3S1 and C4S1’, indicating high salinity and low sodium water which can be used for irrigation in most soils and crops with little to medium danger of development of exchangeable sodium and salinity. However, samples with doubtful Na% (56%), unsuitable KI and MH (88%, 64% respectively), and high salinity hazard (60%) values restrict the suitability of the groundwater for agricultural purposes, and plants with good salt tolerance should be selected for such ground waters.
Water quality and risk assessment of tributary rivers in San Fernando, Bukidn...Innspub Net
Bukidnon, Philippines being identified as an agricultural province needs to ensure water sustainability vital to support its agroeconomy. This study considered Tigua River with three river tributaries and Salug River with single station in San Fernando, Bukidnon. Analysis employed single sampling technique to initially assess river tributaries. Studied water quality parameters were pH, temperature, dissolved oxygen (DO), oxidizing redox potential (ORP), turbidity, salinity, conductivity, total dissolved solids (TDS) using portable pre-calibrated meters. Nitrates were also determined using Bruccine colorimetric method. Analyzed heavy metals in total form were copper (Cu), cadmium (Cd), lead (Pb), and chromium (Cr) using Flame-Atomic absorption spectrophometry (AAS). Overall, studied river tributaries passed national regulation with risk quotient (RQ) showing no potential pollution. Heavy metals were below detection limit indicating less traceable quantities in river tributaries. Salinity, conductivity, and TDS showed positive correlation. The study was preliminary and further monitoring may be needed.
Effect of Salt and Water Stresses on Jujube Trees under Ras Sudr Conditionsiosrjce
This investigation was carried out during two successive seasons (2010 and 2011) on 5 years old
Nabq (Zizyphus spina christi) trees at Ras Suder Research Station, Desert Research Center- South Sinai
Governorate, Egypt. This investigation aimed to study the effect of saline water treatments, water regulation
and water irrigation levels on vegetative growth, some fruit parameters, leaf mineral contents, yield and fruit
quality. The treatments contained the combination of three main factors: The first factor: two wells as a saline
water source (well I and well II with EC values 3.68 and 6.80 dS/m, respectively). The second factor: water
regulation method (WR): DI= deficit irrigation and RDI = regulated deficit irrigation by partial root zone
drying (PRD). The third factor: irrigation levels of ETc = crop evapotranspiration 50, 75 and 100% (IL)). The
obtained results showed that well I X deficit irrigation (DI) & regulated deficit irrigation (RDI) X 100% gave
the highest values of tree circumference, Number shoots/tree, leaf area, yield/tree, fruit length, fruit diameter,
fruit weight, fruit volume, fruit flesh weight, fruit moisture% and leaf contents of N, P, Mg beside TSS and total
sugars. Moreover, treatments with well I X deficit irrigation (DI) recorded the highest values of shoot length,
shoot diameter, fruit set, fruit retention, K and Fe. We can be recommended by treatment of trees with well I
under stresses with regulated deficit irrigation under 100 % ETc to get the best results of fruit quality
— The study evaluated the effects of land use and occupation in water quality in two sub-basins located in the State of Paraná, Brazil. The first sub-basin has 69.8% of native vegetation (natural) and the other has 54.1% of the land cultivated (anthropic). Samples were collected from April to December 2015, analyzing the following parameters: dissolved oxygen, temperature, electrical conductivity, pH, total dissolved solids, turbidity, color, biochemical oxygen demand, total nitrogen, total phosphorus and fecal coliforms. The natural sub-basin presented, significantly, better water quality. Total phosphorus, biochemical oxygen demand and fecal coliforms exceeded the legal limits on the anthropic sub-basin. At this sub-basin correlation was found between cumulative rainfall of five days with turbidity and fecal coliforms, two days cumulative rainfall and total nitrogen, as well as between air and water temperature, affecting the dissolved oxygen, pH, electrical conductivity and fecal coliforms. In the natural sub-basin correlation was found between cumulative rainfall of two days and turbidity, total dissolved solids and electrical conductivity.

Water quality modeling of an agricultural watershed with best management prac...eSAT Journals
Abstract Simulation of Best Management Practices (BMPs) affecting water quality is necessary while modeling the water quality of agricultural watersheds with BMPs in place to mitigate pollution of river. Previous studies explored methods to represent some of the water quality BMPs. However, there are still gaps in the research to represent some other BMPs such as constructed wetlands, wastewater reuse, residue management and nutrient management. This paper focuses on modeling of BMPs affecting water quality. The study area is a 1692 Km2 cultivated watershed in South Texas, USA where water quality is impaired for dissolved oxygen (DO). The water quality constituents analyzed for the study are sediment, nitrogen, phosphorus, water temperature and dissolved oxygen. Apart from identification of methodology to simulate BMPs, this study estimated extent of pollution mitigation by each type of BMP. Binomial method of water quality analysis was used to judge the compliance of river reach for meeting DO criterion. This manuscript will discuss modeling of water quality constituents and the BMPs that affect water quality. In addition, the estimation of dissolved oxygen compliance of the watershed is also discussed. The results from the study indicate that the agricultural BMPs implemented in the watershed and establishment of stringer water quality criteria have in fact improved the DO trends in the tidal section of the river, which did not meet the stipulated DO criterion before.

Biophysical Characteristics and the Anthropogenic Activities in San Roque Riv...YogeshIJTSRD
River provides essential various ecosystem goods and services that are essential for living organisms’ survival. As such, its quality must be maintained to ensure the healthy condition of the environment as well as the safety of the community. The study aimed to assess the biophysical characteristics and the anthropogenic activities in San Roque River, Northern Samar. It employed descriptive research combined with laboratory analysis and SPSS was employed to treat and analyze the data.The study revealed that the physico chemical characteristics of the water in San Roque River in terms of temperature, pH, TSS, TDS, and turbidity were within the DENR standards. However, the water of the river was highly contaminated with total coli forms and fecal coli forms. Likewise, the salinity was beyond from the standard that made the water of the river salty. T test revealed that the characteristics of water during high and low tides showed no significant differences. On the contrary. It has shown significant difference on water parameters in terms of temperature, pH, TSS, TDS, BOD, and DO between high tide and the standards. Likewise, pH, TSS, BOD, and DO have shown significant difference on low tide with the standards. It also revealed that there were anthropogenic activities and practices of the community living along the river that directly affect the water quality and condition of the river. Moreover, this also concludes that there were no significant relationships on the characteristics of the water and the anthropogenic activities. Lastly, the San Roque River was classified as Class D river at the time of the conduct of the study. This concludes that the river needed rehabilitation so that the potential uses of the river would be maximized which would redound to better benefits of the community. Elvin L. Jarito | Gerald T.

The study of past interactions between hunter-gatherer communities and coastal environment is of major interest because this period was characterised by a rapid sealevel
rise following the Deglaciation. Here we present a study case of Pego-Oliva (Eastern Spain), an area which provides a thick Early-middle Holocene sedimentary infill, together with an extended Mesolithic sequence (El Collado site). Both records provide an unique opportunity to address how the Early Holocene sea level the reduction of coastal plains and the modification of coastal biotopes affected human settlement patterns during the Mesolithic period and the Mesolithic-Neolithic trantition. New fieldwork in the Pego-Oliva lagoon has been carried out in the context of the research project MedCoRes (H2020-MSCA-IF-2015 Ref. 704822). An extensive sampling strategy, based on 3 transects of 16 boreholes covering the Holocene sedimentary infilling, has been implementd together with sedimentological (lithostratigraphy, grainsize, LOI, dry density), and chronostratigraphic analyses (14C dates). This work has allowed to reconstruct three main phases of the morphogenetic evolution: First, from 9800 to 8200 cal. BP, the retrogradational architecture is characterised by four steps of shallow inner lagoon environments associated to sand barriers. Then, from 8200 to 7000 cal. BP, the continuous and rapid backward migration of the shoreline reached its maximal inland position leading to the disappearance of former inner lagoons. Finally, since 7000 cal. BP, sea-level stabilisation promoted the barrier construction leading to formation of an inner coastal lagoon isolated of the sea. Finally, based on paleogeographical reconstructions and radiocarbon modelling we estimated that horizontal inland migration of the coastline reached rates of ~150 m per 50 years. Those results are compared to the Bayesian chronostratigraphy and bioarchaeological assemblages of El Collado. Altogether, our results show synchronic changes of coastal palaeoenvironments and subsistence patterns, arguing that new
strategies have been essential to adapt to highly changing landscapes.

Small as they may appear, headwater streams are very important because the health of the organism depends on that network of streams. The present study deals with the assessment of water quality of Mahuganao Stream, the socio-demographic and economic profile of residents living near the stream, the way they utilize the stream and how much waste they can produce. The analysis of the water samples collected was done in the laboratory to determine the Water Quality Index. Twelve (12) households were interviewed to elicit information on their socio-demographic and economic profile, how they utilize the stream and the amount of waste each household produces. Overall, Mahuganao stream is within the standard set by the agencies concerned such as DENR, PNSDW and USEPA. The socio-demographic profile of the community and its solid waste management is seen to be changing over time due to the fact that the median age at present is found to be within their late teens. There is a need to manage the stream as this group of people has the capacity to reproduce and could increase the anthropogenic activities and waste generation in the area.

Geologically, it is underlain mainly by Peninsular gneisses of Archean age followed by Gulcheru and Vemapalli
formations comprising quartzites, conglomerates, dolomites and shales. Major geomorphic units are
denudational hills, residual hills, pediments, pediplains, structural hills and valleys. The study area experiences a
semiarid climate. Physicochemical parameters viz., pH, total hardness, calcium, chloride, total dissolved solids,
fluoride were analyzed. Most of parameter show higher value than permissible limit in pre and post monsoon.
Further, a moderation in water quality was observed after the monsoon season, which can be attributed to a
possible dilution due to groundwater recharge People dependent on this water may prone to health hazard.
Therefore some effective measures are urgently required to enhance the quality of water in these areas
Assessment of seasonal variations in surface water quality of Laguna Lake Sta...Open Access Research Paper
Laguna Lake is one of the lakes that largely contribute to the socio-economic and environmental needs of the Philippines as it supports fisheries and aquaculture, recreation, power generation, and industries. In this study, the two-year (2018-2019) water quality monitoring data from Laguna Lake Development Authority was subjected to multivariate factor analysis. Initially, the dataset was divided into two categories, representing the dry and wet seasons. Factor analysis was then performed in order to identify major contributing factors that significantly influence the water quality of the lake during dry and wet seasons. Factor analysis for the two data sets (dry and wet) was able to identify three factors, namely, nutrient pollutants, influential water quality and nitrification. Results showed that the nutrient factor constitutes the biggest impact with a variance of 23.6% on the lake’s water quality during dry season, following influential water quality (22.2%) and nitrification (20.3%). However the nutrient factor contributes the least impact with a variance of 15.1% on the quality of water during wet season while the influential water quality contributes the highest amount of variance (29.4%). Significant changes on BOD and pH were also observed between seasons. Hence, it can be recommended to have strategies for regular monitoring and maintenance of water quality in Laguna Lake. In addition, environmental programs, and policies concerning water, air, and land protection by stakeholders must be realized to ensure sustainability, and conservation of all forms of life particularly aquatic life species.

On the Use of the Causal Analysis in Small Type Fit Indices of Adult Mathemat...QUESTJOURNAL
ABSTRACT: Model evaluation is one of the most important aspects of Structural Equation Modeling (SEM). Many model fit indices have been developed. It is not an exaggeration to say that nearly every publication using the SEM methodology has reported at least one fit index. Fit is the ability of a model to reproduce the data in the variance-covariance matrix form. A good fitting model is one that is reasonably consistent with the data and doesn’t require respecification and also its measurement model is required before estimating paths in a covariance structure model. A baseline model of four constructs together with a combination of none, one, two, three or four additional constructs was constructed with latent variables: educational performance, socioeconomic label, self concept and parental authority using dichotomous digits 0 or 1 for each additional construct. 16 progressively nested models were considered starting with baseline model using the mathematics adult learners data from the modeling sample and employing some small fit indexes which are commonly used (AIC, CAIC, RMR, SRMR, RMSEA, 2 / DF among others) [1] to test the fitness of the model. The measures of model fit based on results from analysis of the covariance structure model are presented.
The Sov’reign Shrine of Veiled Melancholy- The Shadow of Consumption on La Be...QUESTJOURNAL
―Youth grows pale and spectre thin and dies‖ – John Keats, (Ode to Nightingale) Tuberculosis was one of the most misunderstood and misrepresented diseases of all times. Hailed as Consumption’s Poster Child, Keats' life, like Beethoven's, served as a pattern tor the Romantic artist. In acute distress and emotional turmoil, in 1819 masterpiece followed masterpiece. In Keats' poems we see a concreteness of description of the object he contemplates. All the senses - tactile gustatory, kinetic, organic, as well as visual and auditory combine to give the total apprehension of his experience. His experiences often accord closely with his personal, life and the disasters he had. Keats is austere in poetry and yet he keeps high colouring and variety of appeal to the senses and the mind. Tuberculosis remains with us today, especially in sub-Saharan Africa and Southeast Asia where more than a million people die of this disease each year. It is worth recalling its history and its association with literature with special reference to John Keats and his poetry- and specially La Belle Dame Sans Merci that shows a dominant forebrooding over man's mortality from it. La Belle becomes a representation of the disease in Keats’s La Belle Dame Sans Merci and reflects the poet’s struggle with tuberculosis.
Recruitment Practices And Staff Performance In Public Universities: A Case St...QUESTJOURNAL
ABSTRACT: Recruitment, as a human resource management function, is one of the activities that impact most critically on the performance of any organization irrespective of its size and location. Public Universities, known to train professionals that exhibit transformative leadership and successfully run blue-chip companies have equally suffered from rampart industrial unrest and human resource malpractices across Kenya. Could it be a unique trend of organizational deviance that could be reflecting absence of a well executed staff recruitment practice? While it is understood and accepted that poor recruitment decisions continue to affect organizational performance and limit goal achievement, knowledge about this aspect in Public Universities remains scanty. The aim of this study was to address this gap by evaluating how recruitment practices affect performance of administrative staff in Public Universities using Masinde Muliro University of Science and Technology, Kenya as a case reference. A cross-sectional survey design was employed while sampling strategy was a blend of multiphase, stratified and purposive sampling. A sample size of 124 out of 1150 comprised mainly of administrative staff was used and that a questionnaire was the principal tool of data collection. Results were analyzed using frequency tables, mean, standard deviation and simple linear regression. The study found that a recruitment policy existed at Masinde Muliro University of Science and Technology, Kenya and that both external and internal recruitment practices were used to recruit employees at the University. However, it was noted that most of the university employees are recruited through media advert, internal advertisement, through transfers and promotions. The results of the regression indicated that recruitment practices are a significant predictor of employee performance, which was explained by 32% of variance and a moderate relationship captured by beta weight value of 0.57. On effectiveness of the recruitment policy, only 30% rated it as effective while 62% were indifferent and 8% rated it ineffective. The study concluded that although a significant relationship between recruitment practices and employee performance existed, it’s effectiveness and therefore positive impact on employee performance depended on employees’ positive perception and rating. It’s recommended that the Universities should avoid biasness in the recruitment process as this will negatively impact on employee performance.
Pesse Na Siri’ Budgetary System: A Historiography Study of Luwu Kingdom in Is...QUESTJOURNAL
ABSTRACT: This study aimed to explore the budgetary system of pesse na siri’ at Luwu kingdom in the Islamic period of 1593 to 1945. Through the historiography method, it showed the base existence of the spiritual sense sensitivity, i.e., pesse (empathy) and siri’ (shame) and Islamic law in budgetary system. In the resources management, it was carried out in four stages, namely planning, implementation, reporting, and evaluation. Operationally, the pesse na siri’ budgetary system on the mobilization mechanism of resources or budget (balanca) through the top down system (i.e., known as balanca pole riwawo) and bottom up system (i.e., known as balanca pole riawa). The top down system was a mobilization resource form from agricultural products of the king’s land (i.e., known in Buginese language as Tanana datue) and the palace logistic. Meanwhile, the bottom up came from the resource offer–i.e., known as makkasiwiyang–mechanism, consisting of makkasiwiyang lili’ (the lower government level), makkasiwiyang ale (personal/individual), and makkasiwiyang reso (labor). One of the Islamic impacts in this system was to direct the budgetary system based on the Shari’a or Islamic law.

ABSTRACT: The loose and unstable lower complete denture is one of the most common problems faced by denture patients with highly resorbed ridge. The management of such highly resorbed ridges has always posed a difficulty to the prosthodontist.Obtaining consistent mandibular denture stability has longbeen a challenge for dental profession. The simplest approach often is to extend the denture base adequately for proper use of all available tisues.To achieve this goal impression of the resorbed mandibular ridge is very important. The objective is to develop a physiologic impression with maximum support of both hard and soft tissues.In such cases, an innovative technique of impressionmaking by using a close fitting tray and anelastomeric impression material tomake a proper impression to achieve maximum retentionand stability.This article describes an impression technique used for highly resorbed mandibular ridge using an all green impression technique, to gain maximum retention andstability
Steganographic Technique Using Instant Messaging Conversation DynamicsQUESTJOURNAL
ABSTRACT : Steganography is considered to be not only the science but also the art of hiding secret messages into other innocuous and non-secret media of different types. History of steganography started with the history of civilization and algorithms of data hiding have been constantly developed with the rise of mankind's knowledge. Some of steganographic algorithms are so close connected to the use of digital media, computers and information technology, that those algorithms do not have analogy in non-digital world. It is possible to see the use of hard disk drives (HDD), solid state discs (SSD) and file systems for the purpose of steganography, or steganography in TCP/IP networks as the example. In this paper we are concentrating on such algorithm and we are examining the possibility of the use of dynamics of conversation realized with the use of instant messaging services, which are very popular standalone services or are part of widely used social networks like Facebook. The paper discusses the possibility of hidden message encoding by the use of different parameters of conversation dynamics and introduces new algorithm and its program implementation. The last part of the paper summarizes results of its experimental use.

Exploring the Effectiveness of the Arabic LanguageTeaching Methods in Indones...QUESTJOURNAL
ABSTRACT: The aim of this research work is to identify the effectiveness of the Arabic language teaching methods in Indonesia(National University of Malang for Sample)in terms of making use of Arabic as a medium of communication among the students in the light of the modern approaches in teaching and learning of Arabic language. This research is methodologically characterized as a descriptive, analytical, evaluative and field research work. In order to arrive at the purpose of this study, a questionnaire has been designed and carried out on a specimen from the teachers of the concerned university. Eventually, the study has arrived into a finding that the method used in the university is the Eclectic Method (i.e. Selective Method), except that translation is utilized extensively with it, and it might influentially cause the depreciation of the communication skill of the students, and the major intermediary language for the Arabic language teaching is the Indonesian language. However, its uncontrolled over-usage in the Arabic language teaching procedure may negatively cause the weakness of the students in the listening and speaking skills, since they could not get enough opportunity to practice them during language learning, in addition to the fact that the teachers might be employed as Arabic language teachers on the basis of their high conversance with the grammatical rules of Arabic language and not on their skills in the Arabic language communication medium.

In the second part the theme and storyline of the novels were revisted along with characters and narrative technique. The first section has been introduced to give an overview of the prolificness of the author and the second part is the testimony of his logocentricism. The paper aims to present the plot and theme of all Ghosh’s novels
ABSTRACT: The purpose of Larkin as literary artist was to convey his ultimate message that man has to transcend the gross environment for the attainment for final goal. His poem opens with important question which prompt us to scrutinize ourselves. According to Philip Larkin “when you come to talk about once duty as writer then ones can say that his duty is to write for harmony”. In this paper there an urge in Larkin’s poem to attain transcendental knowledge by which everything is known. The meaningful change in environment through literature result from the development of qualities and attitude that foster constructive pattern of human interaction through literature. In an age of highly industrialized and mechanized structure of our society where we have 'given our hearts away a sordid boon' and where all spiritual values have been thrown overboard, the relevance of selecting this topic "Spiritual Quest in Philip Larkin" becomes important. In Larkin's poetry there is invariably, an element of spiritual crises, a note of subsequent struggle to step out of it. This inner conflict to proceed forward in the path of Divine realization lends magnificence to his poetic and spiritual personality.
The Influence of Religiosity on Marital Satisfaction and Stability AmongChris...QUESTJOURNAL
ABSTRACT: Various studies indicate that religious couples are more likely to enjoy stable and happy marriages. They are also less likely to experience conflict and violence, or to divorce perhaps because religion offers couples theologically grounded guidelines on how to handle marital conflicts when they arise. The present qualitative study was conducted using face to face interviews with nine participants in Kenya who had been identified as practicing Christians. The aim of the study was to explore how religiosity impacted the participant’s marital satisfaction. Results indicated that specific attributes related to religiosity like individual and partner prayer, reading the Bible, church attendance, impacted participants and their spouses lives positively and in turn their experiences in marriage. Engaging in religious practices was reported by the participants as eliciting qualities like perseverance, forgiveness and humility which in turn assisted them in keeping their marriages stable and thus resulting in marital satisfaction
The SA0 Group Reservoir ’S Compositive Evaluation In The Central Developing P...QUESTJOURNAL
ABSTRACT: Using the data from logging in a net of high density, the sand core from a airtight well, and the testing data for oil and gas , and then according to the experiment of exploitation, we studied the deposit visage in macroscopical way, the physical characteristics of the reservoir, and the partition of the oil and gas’s border. It is clear that the zero group of Sa’s oil floor is mainly deposit in the foreside of a delta under the background of lake incursion, and the ventro-delta express a character that there were some sandstones which was transited for two times. Make a certain that the oil and gas’s border of zero group in Sa is maybe 600m underground, and demarcated the maximal square is 26.8km2 about this reservoir, and tell us that it lies in the top of the anticline. Of course, this production can be used in the designing of the zero group of Sa’s exploitation
Down the Purgatory of Memories:The Pain of Remembering in M alayalam Naxal Ci...QUESTJOURNAL
ABSTRACT:Keralam, the southern most state in India is known for its cinema and politics. It is in Kerala that Communist Party came to power through Parliamentary election process for the first time in history. The political consciousness nurtured by the Communist movement found its reflections in Malayalam (language being spoken by the people of Keralam) Cinema as well. As a result films produced during the formative years of Malayalam Cinema were characterized by their political content. Having said this it should also be added that since those films are produced within the dominant production system with a view to garner profit they fail to politically stimulate the audience. But the situation had been changed after the Naxalite (radical left movement ideologically inclined to Maoism) uprising in 1969 during which both the feudal/bourgeois value orientations and the alleged degeneration of the Communist Party were challenged by the educated radical youths who fought for an immediate revolution. The state promptly intervened and contained Naxalite uprising with an iron fist. The repressive machinery of the state intervened whenever instances of resistance occurred. The Emergency declared in 1975 exposed the inhuman face of government that unleashed series of tortures against its citizens. The post -1980 political films, otherwise called as Naxalite films, try to recapture the tormenting experience of being political during the time of such mass oppression. Those movies resort to memory to expose the stark experience of the past.Remembering is a way of representing the past with all its nuances as it situates the remembering subject at close proximity with the past. At the same time Naxalite movies explored the possibility of forgetting also to unveil the subtle complexities of individual's relationship with the past. Here I consider two Malayalam films-AmmaAriyan(1986) directed by John Abraham and Margam (2003) directed by Rajeev Vijayaraghavan- to investigate how memory and oblivion are meticulously used by the filmic narratives to politicize a society already under the grip of political amnesia.
Professional Competences: An Integrative Approach for Defining The Training C...QUESTJOURNAL
ABSTRACT: This paper offers an integrative proposal for Business Administrationcurricular programs. For that purpose, we have carried out a survey with teachers from upper Business Administration courses so as to select a group of key competences for the contemporary Administrator, which has allowed us to elaborate an integrative proposal of curricular program for the Business Administration scholars in Brazil. As a qualitative research, it consists of a multiple case study with empirical approach and a triangular analysis based on Moraes (2014).Its main objective has been to analyze the curricular programs from five higher education institutions in the state of Rio Grande do Sul and two other foreign institutions in South America. At first, we have asked ourselves the following question: How to adapt the Business Administration curricular program to the contemporary needs as far as the vocational training competences of Administrators are concerned?In order to answer it, we have analyzed the National Curriculum Guidelines (DCN) and the Political-Educational Projects of Business Administration Courses (PPC/CSA). After that, we have compared the Curricular Components (CC) of the Higher Education Institutions (HEIs) under analysis. After performing the triangular textual analysis of the DCN, PPC/CSA and CC of all HEIs under study, we have carried out a survey with 35 teachers from Business Administration upper courses through a computerized online questionnaire.We have sent a Survey Monkey link for a total of 40 teachers, however, only 35 answered it (87.5%); we have considered 100% valid answers. Previously, based on the doctrine of competences and curriculum according to the most renowned authors – suchas Vygostsky, Freire, Sacristán, Piaget, Saviani, Bloom, Libâneo (curriculum); Fleury & Fleury, Zarifian, Perrenoud, Lisboa (competences), among others – wehave concluded that implementing the integrative proposal will providemore well-prepared graduates from the Business Administration course right to the competitive and globalized labor market.

The term “total marginality” is used to describe the myriad, chronic, and often inescapable ways that African American college students attending PWIs are marginalized in a college setting. The focus of this paper is the impact of total marginality on Black identity development for those African American collegians who successfully complete their university studies at a PWI.
Alternative dispute resolution and civil litigation barriers to access to jus...QUESTJOURNAL
ABSTRACT: Civil law is the predominate system of law in the world. Civil law as a legal system is often compared with common law. The main difference that is usually drawn between the two system is that common law drawn abstract rules from specific cases, whereas civil law with abstract rules which judges must then apply to the various cases before them. Civil law has its roots in Roman law, Common law and the Enlightenment, alongside influence from other religious laws such as Islamic Law. The legal system in many civil law countries are based around one or several codes of law which set out the main principles that guide the law. On the other hand, Criminal Law as offences and prescribes punishment for them. It not only precludes or prevents crimes but also punish the offender. It is necessary for the maintenance of law, order and peace within state. In criminal cases, it is the state which initiates proceeding against the offender. Laws relating to the Civil Proceeding as the Code of Civil Procedure 1908; the Civil Courts Act 1887; the Suit Valuation Act 1887; the Limitation Act 1908; the Registration Act 1908; & the Specific Relief Act 1877.

Elevating Tactical DDD Patterns Through Object CalisthenicsDorra BARTAGUIZ
After immersing yourself in the blue book and its red counterpart, attending DDD-focused conferences, and applying tactical patterns, you're left with a crucial question: How do I ensure my design is effective? Tactical patterns within Domain-Driven Design (DDD) serve as guiding principles for creating clear and manageable domain models. However, achieving success with these patterns requires additional guidance. Interestingly, we've observed that a set of constraints initially designed for training purposes remarkably aligns with effective pattern implementation, offering a more ‘mechanical’ approach. Let's explore together how Object Calisthenics can elevate the design of your tactical DDD patterns, offering concrete help for those venturing into DDD for the first time!

Epistemic Interaction - tuning interfaces to provide information for AI supportAlan Dix
Paper presented at SYNERGY workshop at AVI 2024, Genoa, Italy. 3rd June 2024
https://alandix.com/academic/papers/synergy2024-epistemic/
As machine learning integrates deeper into human-computer interactions, the concept of epistemic interaction emerges, aiming to refine these interactions to enhance system adaptability. This approach encourages minor, intentional adjustments in user behaviour to enrich the data available for system learning. This paper introduces epistemic interaction within the context of human-system communication, illustrating how deliberate interaction design can improve system understanding and adaptation. Through concrete examples, we demonstrate the potential of epistemic interaction to significantly advance human-computer interaction by leveraging intuitive human communication strategies to inform system design and functionality, offering a novel pathway for enriching user-system engagements.
2. Groundwater Quality Of Capim Grosso Region, Bahia , Brazil
*Corresponding Author: Dioga Argolo de Cerqueira Rios 53 | Page
The municipal polygon Capim Grosso, Bahia, Brazil, comprises an area of about 336 km², located
within the limits of geographic coordinates 11º 23'00" south latitude and 40 ° 01'00" west longitude, lying 268
km from the capital State of Bahia, Salvador city (Figure 1). This article presents the results of evaluative
research on the quality of groundwater in the area of the municipality of Capim Grosso related to hydrochemical
aspects and measuring the potability of the water of these Brasilian semi-arid sites.
Figure 1: Location map ( RIOS, 2015).
II. GENERAL CHARACTERISTICS
The climate domains Capim Grosso is situated in semi-arid climate range (SEI,1999), characterized by
high temperatures, low rainfall , with two stations i) summer, with a concentration of rainfall and ii ) Winter ,
dry and average the annual rainfall of 400 to 800 mm range. The soils were classified as Red-Yellow Dystrophic
Latosol, Planosol Eutrophic and restrictively Udorthent Dystrophic CPRM (2005). They are considered slightly
acidic due to their genetic relationship and saline due to intense evaporation and reduced rainfall . The
geomorphology of the municipality of Capim Grosso is made up trays provincials SEI (2015).
The local vegetation dominates the Caatinga arborous with palm trees and Contact Caatinga- Seasonal
Forest (SEI, 2015). This primary vegetation has been practically removed for agriculture and livestock activities.
The region is still practicing archaic and uninformed farm, using rudimentary techniques and the production is
for the domestic market and for subsistence. The local geology consists of crystalline rocks of high metamorphic
grade of Proterozoic age belonging to the complex Caraíba and Tanque Novo Ipirá in addition to the suite São
José do Jacuípe , recovers by lateritic detritus sediments, made of sand with clay levels and gravel old and
recent and quaternary colluvial deposits CPRM (2005 ) . The hydrography of the region is fully inserted inserted
into the Rio Itapicuru basin , specifically in the region called Alto Itapicuru (INEMA, 2015). Surface drainages
are scarce, with limited and intermittent watercourses example the stream of Father Thomas, the river fish and
Itapicuru Mirim. This together form watercourses form a dendriform dendritic drainage regulated by brittle
geological structures.
III. MATERIALS AND METHODS
To achieve the results presented in this publication were used the following methodological steps: i)
detailed search theoretical basis research and allow survey and selection of wells through SIAGAS system
(CPRM), where the data 18 registered wells were found and the registration of CERB , which store data in 29
wells drilled. The Agriculture Secretariat of Municipal Capim Grosso Hall was also consulted, stating the
location of drilled private wells in the city. At the end of this process, they were registered and visited and
sampled 22 wells (Figure 2).

During the water sampling and in situ analysis of physicochemical parameters we used a
multiparameter probe Horiba U-50 Multiparameter Water Quality Checker to obtain the physico-chemical
parameters such as hydrogen potential (pH ) , redox potential ( EH ), Dissolved Oxygen (DO), Electrical
Conductivity (EC), Total Dissolved Solids (TDS), temperature, turbidity and salinity. Water samples were
stored in bottles in plastic polyethylene containers previously decontaminated by aqueous solution containing
5% HCl or HNO3 and reseal , field records, gloves,GPS, ; deionized water and ice to keep samples in cold
temperatures.
Prior to sample collection the wells were purged by pumping for a period of 10 to 20 minutes , time
required to remove the water pipe and to obtain a sample directly from the aquifer. The water was collected in
nature , using the containers for storage. In some of the sampled wells there was no electric pump equipment, if
necessary, so use Disposable Samplers Groundwater - Bailer. The samples for nitrate analysis ( NO3 ) were
acidified with 1mg/L of H2SO4 and chilled in order to preserve its characteristics to the analysis. Samples
dedicated to the analysis of metals were filtered in the laboratory, they were subsequently acidified and
refrigerated until the time of analysis . The sample preservation techniques followed the technical guidelines
Analysis Practical Handbook of Water (FUNASA, 2006) and the Standard Methods for the Examination of
Water and Wastewater (APHA,1995). The order of analysis followed the parameters of established methods,
carried out in the Plasma Laboratory of Geosciences Institute of Federal University of Bahia, where the results
of HCO3 content, titration with sulfuric acid and Cl (titration with silver nitrate) by tritrimetrie , SO4
2-
and NO3-
were dosed by spectrophotometry and F-
by fluorimetry (SPADNS method). The second part of the samples
was vacuum filtered with cellulose membrane ( 0.45 μm ) taken at a rate of 200 mg/L for each sample, and
acidified with 5mg/L of HNO3 , subjected to digestion processes stored in becker to concentration disposing on
the plate heater at an average temperature of 60 ° C , to Ca metal analyzes, Mg, Na , K, Fe, Cu , Zn , Mn , Ba ,
Pb and Al using ICP-OES device 700 series from Agilent Technologies. The analytical results obtained are
shown in Table 3.
IV. RESULTS AND DISCUSSIONS
There is no pure water in nature (RIOS,2015). This material is able to dissolve solids, gases and dilute
liquids. By precipitating in the form of rain, it carries substances from the atmosphere. Percolate to the ground ,
it dissolves the materials present . Upon reaching the aquifer , it incorporates the chemical characteristics of the
rocks that compose it , based on the analytical results were constructed graphs and charts through systematic
data in Excel (Tables 1,2,3) , and were made maps with the spatial distribution of each variable in the
underground waters of the municipality. The Total Dissolved Solids (TDS ) have an average of 4.600mg/L,
ranging from a minimum of 720mg/L and a maximum of 14,000 mg/L. Overall, the analyzes show numbers are
above the Maximum Amount Allowed ( VMP ) for STD 1000mg/L for drinking water established by Ordinance
No
. 2914/2011 of the Ministry of Health of Brazil . The values of electrical conductivity (EC) have average
7603.18μS/cm, and which has the highest conductivity with 22500μS/cm , and less with 1.130μS / cm. The
electrical conductivity is not a parameter legislated by Ordinance No
. 2914/2011 of the Ministry of Health of
Brazil, but the technical literature recommends a lower EC to 750μS/cm to a good drinking water (MENDES
and OLIVEIRA, 2004).

The average hydrogenionic potential (pH) found in the waters of the region was 6,63mg/L , the lowest
of 4,03mg/L and the highest of 7,40mg /L. The means indicate that all the wells are in the ranges established as
normal and expected for a groundwater ( CUSTÓDIO and LLAMAS, 1983) . The hydrogenionic potential is
not a legislated parameter by Ordinance No. 2914/2011 of the Ministry of Health of Brazil. Urge point out that
the average values do not imply consumption problems , but very low or high values may result in the
dissolution of minerals, algae growth , corrosion or fouling of pipes ( MENDES and OLIVEIRA, 2004). The
average of chlorides values found in the study was 1.962,05mg/L, with the lowest value of 181,77mg/L and the
highest value of 6.996,18mg/L. The anion Cl-
combined with the alkali metal form of the salts most abundant in
nature, being found in all natural waters. In groundwater , chloride originates from the leaching of soil and
aquifer rocks and also contamination of sewage, industrial effluents and intrusion of saline wedge in coastal
regions. The Ordinance No
. 2914/2011 of the Ministry of Health of Brazil down to drinking water to a
maximum of 250mg/L chloride, most of the measurements taken showed better results than the set number.
Sulfate salts are ionic compounds containing the anion and SO4
2-
are formed when sulfuric acid (
H2SO4- ) is reacted with base (OH-), promoting the neutralization process. It gave the average value of
122,42mg/L sulphate in groundwater. The highest value was found 481,75mg/L and the lowest of 5,47mg/L .
Excess sulphate in industrial supply can cause fouling in boilers and heat exchangers and human consumption ,
their intake causes laxative effect (CETESB , 2009) and unpleasant taste ( MENDES and OLIVEIRA, 2004) .
The value of 250mg/L is established Ordinance No
. 2914/2011 of the Ministry of Health of Brazil.
Calcium and magnesium present average values are 338,04mg /L calcium, the highest value found in
the order of 2.811,25mg L and the lowest of 15,40mg /L. High concentrations of this element in the water
contributes to increased salinity, electrical conductivity and hardness. Calcium is not a legislated parameter by
Ordinance No
. 2914/2011 of the Ministry of Health of Brazil. It is noteworthy that for the human body is an
important element , especially in the skeletal system and in combination with other minerals ( sodium,
potassium, etc.) develops enzymatic functions so essential to the growth of young people ( MENDES and
OLIVEIRA, 2004) , however, high levels of calcium can cause kidney problems. The sodium and potassium the
highest value of 814,99mg/L the minimum value 159.06 mg/L and 404,80mg/L and lower than 2.10 mg/L,
respectively. The Ordinance No
. 2914/2011 of the Ministry of Health of Brazil establishes the maximum value
of 200 mg/L sodium, establishes no number for potassium in drinking water , since this element is always found
in small quantities. However it is urgent to point out that this element in normal amounts involved in the
enzymatic system and the nervous influxes and its deficiency causes muscle weakness and loss of brain power (
MENDES and OLIVEIRA, 2004) .
The Dissolved Oxygen (DO) have an average of 4,71mg/L, with higher values obtained from 7,31mg/L
less than 2,89mg / L. In these wells were found higher Fe values. The alkalinity of the water is 2.0 mg/L and
most 41,01mg/L, average values are 11,38mg/L. This parameter is not legislated by Ordinance No
. 2914/2011 of
the Ministry of Health of Brazil, though out the World Health Organization indicates a minimum value of 5
mg/L. The alkalinity of the water with respect to its quantitative ability to neutralize acids (H+) and therefore
the greater the number of ions hydroxyl ( OH-) , the more water is alkaline . The natural source of alkalinity
comes from the rocks, the atmosphere, organic matter and photosynthesis, and anthropogenic origin are
domestic and industrial waste. The higher alkalinity values are north , north-eastern region , it found out that the
lowest value found was below the LQM to bicarbonate which is 2.0mg / L , so we used the LQM itself as the
reference value , having noticed greater numbers of the order of 41,01mg / L and average 11,38mg/L. The
Ordinance No
. 2914/2011 of the Ministry of Health of Brazil does not establish a VMP (maximum allowed) for
alkalinity as it has no toxicity problems.
For total hardness the lowest value found was 97,07mg/L and the highest value 2.893,22mg/L, average
688,67mg/L. Using the criteria of Custodio and Llamas (1983 ) the waters of the region are classified as hard to
very hard. The mean values obtained for phosphate was 0.07 mg/L, the lowest result of the order of 0,002mg/L
and the highest of 0.42mg/L. For the lowest nitrate was 0.05mg/L , and most of 387,25mg/L mean values were
55,68mg/L. The fluoride values and are uniform throughout the area with an average of 0,52mg/L. The highest
concentration was 0,97mg/L and less than 0,26mg/L. The pointed fluoride in all wells at an average of 0.52
mg/L. The highest concentration was 0,97mg/L and less than 0,26mg/L, values within the limits allowed
Ordinance No
. 2914/2011 of the Ministry of Health of Brazil . It is noted that fluoride values are very uniform
throughout area study, but the greatest focus on the northeast and southeast of the city. This fluoride comes from
apatite Ca5(PO4)3(F,OH,Cl ) widely found throughout the territory. The values for iron, respectively 0.10 mg/L
and 0,16mg/L, with an average of 0.01mg/L, often absent in its waters. In relation to the manganese values are
of the order of 0.01 mg / L and 1,98mg / L medium are 0,40mg/L. Elements such as Ba, Al,Zn and Cu have no
significant values in the waters of the region. The Ordinance No
. 2914/2011 of the Ministry of Health of Brazil,
does not make a VMP for phosphate, 10mg/L for nitrate, 0.3mg/L for iron, 0.1mg/L for manganese, 0.2mg/L for
aluminum, 5,0mg/L of zinc and 2.0mg/L copper. These chemical components (Table 1,2,3 and 4) only the
nitrate is completely above the maximum allowed by VPM such Ordinance. Urge noted that the nitrate

contamination in water can cause damage to health, especially for babies, known as the Blue Baby Syndrome,
where the nitrate induce methemoglobinemian. Not enough, nitrate intestine can be reduced to nitrite and
reacted with secondary amines to form nitrosamides, which are carcinogens (Oliveira Mendes, 2004). For the
classification hydrochemistry was used Qualigraf software (Möbus, 2003), where the main values of the cations
(Ca2+
, Mg2+
, Na+
and K+
) and anions (CO3-, HCO3-, Cl-
and SO4
2-
) were plotted in triangular diagram Piper
(1944). The result diagram allowed to classify these waters as being generically sulfated water / chlorinated and
calcic/magnesian (86.4%) and secondarily sulfated water / chlorinated sodic (13.6%) (Figure 3).
Figure 3: Diagram Piper ( 1944) hydrochemical characterization.
With regard to water salinity showed no well freshwater, brackish water showed only three and all other
presented brine. (Figure 4) .
Figure 4: Classification in relation to groundwater salinity in the municipality of Capim Grosso (RIOS, 2015) .
Comparing the analytical results received with the maximum permissible values (VMP) established by
Ordinance No
. 2914/2011 of the Ministry of Health of Brazil, it turns out that almost all sampling sites and
analyzed have values higher than those established for the potability expressed by quoted above ordinance, and
thus not suitable for human consumption.
Considered the use of water for irrigation, the main parameters to be observed are salinity, sodicity the
toxicities (FEITOSO et al, 2008). The RAS parameter - Adsorption ratio of sodium, plotted in the SAR diagram
and adopted by the U.S. Salinity Laboratory, RAS is an index which indicates the relative proportion of Na+
over Ca2+
and Mg2+
, that content is important especially when high sodium rates, as they tend to replace calcium
and magnesium, compromising the soil. The results of water classification for irrigation by the US Salinity
Laboratory (USSL, 1954) for the municipality of Capim Grosso, indicates the predominance of C5 S2 classes
(31.8%) demonstrated an exceptionally high risk of salinity and medium risk sodium ; followed C5-S3 (27.3%),
further evidencing an exceptionally high salinity risk and high risk sodium; C4-class S2 (18.2%) indicating very
high salinity risk and medium risk sodium; C3-S1 (13.6%) indicates a high risk of salinity and low risk sodium,
and finally, the class C4-S1 (9.1) indicates that a risk of very high salinity and low risk sodium.

V. CONCLUSIONS
The water can be used for human consumption is the drinking water, that free of substances that offer
health risk. For agriculture uses exist criteria for irrigation is no different, as the water with inadequate
properties may compromise the crop, the soil and the irrigation tube system. The physical and chemical
parameters evaluated for Capim Grosso, iron, zinc, nickel, copper and fluoride did not show values above those
permitted by law. The other parameters showed higher values than legislated by the Ministry of Health,
therefore cannot be consumed by the population. The use of groundwater, obtained through the use of collection
wells should not be a recommended technique for this semi-arid region of Bahia. The results the light of
scientific rigor indicate that other means of capture and water storage should be prioritized by government
agencies to reduce the serious problem of supply and use of this poor region in water resources.
