Magazine Cover

Magazine is one of the forms of mass media that has fungsikomunikasi to convey information to mass audiences. The cover is an important element because it is through cover / cover one can guess the contents of the magazine, as well as further interested to know further information contained therein. On a magazine cover consists of drawings and writings are arranged in such a way that looks interesting and has meaning Press publications, especially magazines, today's not enough just to rely on the quality of news or manuscript, although verbal aspect is very important. It must be recognized that the visual aspects (design) as the cover / envelope has crucial role to capture the prospective reader. For the cover of a magazine is a window that shows the content information, can be either a text or photographs, illustrations, and design elements. The function of a magazine cover is to attract, dazzle prospective readers, by way influence the thoughts flow in a short time. So it's no wonder much current the magazine publisher who made the cover of such a way as to attract the attention of prospective readers. Thus the task of designers to magazine cover to create designs that attract the attention of the reader becomes increasingly severe. This study tries to analyze a visual on the front cover Magazine Graphic Design 'Concept' birthday inaugural edition by using the Roland Barthes' semiotic approach. As Roland Barthes (1984), any simple "design work (magazine cover)" continue to play in management of the sign. So that will generate a message (image) specific. Design cover, usually contains the elements of the sign in the form of objects, context of the environment, people or other beings who provide meaning to objects, and text (of writing) that reinforce the meaning.Keyword: cover, magazine Concept, semiotics

Holder pasteurization (HoP; 62.5 °C, 30 min) is commonly used to ensure the microbiological safety of donor human milk (DHM) but diminishes its nutritional properties. A high-temperature short-time (HTST) system was designed as an alternative for human milk banks. The objective of this study was to evaluate the effect of this HTST system on different nutrients and the bile salt stimulated lipase (BSSL) activity of DHM. DHM was processed in the HTST system and by standard HoP. Macronutrients were measured with a mid-infrared analyzer. Lactose, glucose, myo-inositol, vitamins and lipids were assayed using chromatographic techniques. BSSL activity was determined using a kit. The duration of HTST treatment had a greater influence on the nutrient composition of DHM than did the tested temperature. The lactose concentration and the percentage of phospholipids and PUFAs were higher in HTST-treated than in raw DHM, while the fat concentration and the percentage of monoacylglycerides and SFAs were lower. Other nutrients did not change after HTST processing. The retained BSSL activity was higher after short HTST treatment than that following HoP. Overall, HTST treatment resulted in better preservation of the nutritional quality of DHM than HoP because relevant thermosensitive components (phospholipids, PUFAs, and BSSL) were less affected.

The study presented in this paper is concerned with the analysis of the ultrasound Doppler signal of the carotid arteries in the time-frequency domain using the short time Fourier transform (STFT) and the Wigner–Ville distribution (WVD). This study is carried out in order to investigate the behavior of the spectral broadening index (SBI) derived from spectra obtained using these methods. The variations in the shape of the Doppler power spectra as a function of time are presented in the form of sonograms in order to determine the degree of primitive carotid artery stenosis. The obtained results show a qualitative improvement in the appearance of the sonograms generated using the WVD over the STFT. However, despite this qualitative improvement the WVD suffers from some drawbacks: the presence of the cross terms which are primarily due to its quadratic nature. The application of the Choi–Williams distribution (CWD) in this analysis shows a noticeable reduction of these cross terms, improving therefore the quality of the sonograms. From these generated sonograms, the ultrasound frequency envelopes are extracted. The maximum and the mean frequencies in these envelopes are used to determine the SBI. The magnitude of the CWD-SBI is significantly greater than that of the STFT-SBI. In addition, there is a correlation between the SBIs obtained using the STFT and the CWD and the degree of severity of stenosis measured by 2D Doppler imaging.

The presence of Pericopsis mooniana (Thw.) Thw. in nature is endangered. Meanwhile, Pericopsis mooniana plants have its obstacles in generative propagation because the seeds have mechanical dormancy. Studies carried out to: (1) observe the morphology of pods, seeds and sprouts of Pericopsis mooniana; (2) determine the physical quality of Pericopsis mooniana seeds, and (3) analyze the proper dormancy breaking treatment for Pericopsis mooniana seeds. Research is conducted in laboratories and in greenhouses. The physical quality of the seeds measured was the weight of 1,000 seeds and the moisture content. The treatment for breaking the dormancy of the Pericopsis mooniana seeds were control, scarification of the seeds using nail clippers and soaking in hot to cold water for 48 hours. Morphologically, the fruit of Pericopsis mooniana is pod-shaped, with orange seeds, oval-shaped and curved edges. Pericopsis mooniana sprouts include in the epigeal type. In 1 kg of weight there are ± 4,000 Pericopsis mooniana seeds, with the post harvest seed moisture content amounting to 7.62%. The dormancy breaking treatment of Pericopsis mooniana seeds increased seeds germination by 60% compared to controls. The scarification of Pericopsis mooniana seeds using nail clippers for breaking mechanical dormancy is the best treatment because it can increase the number of seeds germinating in a short time and simultaneously.

Chemistry is one of the most important courses in the system of pre-university training of prospective specialists with higher medical education. During the pandemic, we had to face some problems when organizing chemistry distance learning. There was a lack of data and opportunities for out-of-class interaction with students, since it was necessary to switch to the remote format in a very short time, literally within a few days. It was necessary to develop a model and methodological support to teach chemistry in the distant format and develop relevant professional competencies. The theoretical basis of the research is the theory of the planned development of mental actions and concepts and activities. Analyzing the results, we came to the conclusion that the implementation of this approach increased the motivation of university entrants to study chemistry. Methodological materials helped to improve the quality of training specifically for foreign entrants who did not know Russian well. The results of the final testing made it possible to conclude that the use of distance education or its elements in pre-university chemistry training is promising, necessary and expedient. All students in one way or another coped with the final certification and received certificates that allow them to continue their studies at a medical university.

The legislative reforming of the Russian Academy of Sciences was activated in 2013. Not a consequence, but an important tool for the implementation of this reform and its deepening has become «digitalization» in the form of an exaggerated presentation of the results of scientific activity as bibliometric indicators, including the quality and number of publications. Based on the data of the Russian Science Citation Index the article examines the results of the policy of «increasing the visibility» of Russian economic science in the world publication space. It is shown that in a relatively short time, both extensive and intensive factors of increasing the publication mass are practically exhausted. At the same time, the qualitative parameters of publication activity turn out to be of low variability depending on the dynamics of the publications themselves. The issues of displaying the quality of scientific journals in bibliometric indicators are discussed. The conclusion is made that there is no antagonism between bibliometric and expert metrics when the latter prevail. A sequence of using these metrics is proposed for a comprehensive assessment of the results of scientific activities of organizations and scientists.

Dynamic Phenomena

Machining processes through cutting are accompanied by dynamic phenomena that influence the quality of the processed surfaces. Thus, this research aimed to design, make, and use a tool with optimal functional geometry, which allowed a reduction of the dynamic phenomena that occur in the cutting process. In order to carry out the research, the process of cutting by front turning with transversal advance was taken into account. Additionally, semi-finished products with a diameter of Ø = 150 mm made of C45 steel were chosen for processing (1.0503). The manufacturing processes were performed with the help of two tools: a cutting tool, the classic construction version, and another that was the improved construction version. In the first stage of the research, an analysis was made of the vibrations that appear in the cutting process when using the two types of tools. Vibration analysis considered the following: use of the Fast Fourier Transform (FFT) method, application of the Short-Time Fourier-Transformation (STFT) method, and observation of the acceleration of vibrations recorded during processing. After the vibration analysis, the roughness of the surfaces was measured and the parameter Ra was taken into account, but a series of diagrams were also drawn regarding the curved profiles, filtered profiles, and Abbott–Firestone curve. The research showed that use of the tool that is the improved constructive variant allows accentuated reduction of vibrations correlated with an improvement of the quality of the processed surfaces.

This chapter examines how the term “praos,” associated with Christ in the Gospels, was applied to the eighth-century Byzantine emperor Philippikos, whose successful usurpation was accompanied by a determination to return the Byzantine church to the observance of Monotheletism. Philippikos reigned for less than two years from June 711 to May 713, but in that short time he became closely associated with the text known as Parastaseis syntomoi chronikai. A passage in Parastaseis Chapter 82 described Philippikos as “gentle.” The fact that “gentle and humble of heart” was so widely quoted in Byzantium points up the contrast between its use in Parastaseis and later accounts of Philippikos. So when the compilers of Parastaseis combine a Christ-like quality of gentleness with Eastern traditions about the emperor's learning and culture, they present him in a very favorable light.
