Are men's gender equality beliefs associated with self-reported intimate partner violence perpetration? A state-level analysis of California men. by Kalysha Closson, Nicole E Johns, Anita Raj

“…We assessed gender equality beliefs using a three-item measure adapted from the World Values Survey, with higher scores representing more gender unequal beliefs (e.g., 'On a whole, men make better political leaders than women'). We assessed IPV perpetration in the last year by asking a) whether men committed any form of violence in the last year (physical violence, use or threat of violence with a weapon, sexual violence) and b) among those who reported committing violence, who they committed violence against. …”

Leadership and Nigeria's Regional Hegemonic Quest in Africa: A Critical Discus by GAMBO Nanven Audu, PULDU Samdi Gloria, KUMS Simon Nankap

“…These prominent role and contribution of Nigeria to Africa qualifies it more to be a regional hegemon among other contenders in the continent; but challenges such as poor leadership, unending terrorism, human rights abuses, widespread corruption, poverty, faulty democratic/electoral processes, non-strategic foreign policy among others continue to mar and/or diminish her chances to attain the status of a regional hegemon. The study makes use of hegemonic stability theory to appraise Nigeria's role and contribution in Africa as an essential tool for the country to assume regional hegemon in the continent. …”

Selection and Engineering of Novel Brighter Bioluminescent Reporter Gene and Color- Tuning Luciferase for pH-Sensing in Mammalian Cells by Vanessa R. Bevilaqua, Gabriel F. Pelentir, Moema A. Hausen, Eliana A. R. Duek, Vadim R. Viviani

“…The transfected COS-1 with Mac-Luc and Crt-Luc displayed lower bioluminescence activity and considerably red-shifted spectra (611 and 564 nm, respectively) at 37 °C, whereas Amy-Luc displayed the highest bioluminescence activity and spectral stability at 37 °C inside cells, displaying the most blue-shifted spectrum at such temperatures (548 nm) and the best spectral resolution at different pH values, making it possible to ratiometrically estimate the pH from 6.0 to 8.0. …”

Prediction Method for Overconsolidation Ratio of Marine SoftSoil Based on the Piezocone Penetration Tests by Yanbin Fu, Sizhan Zhang, Guiyang Lv, Kaihang Han

“…Finally, to verify the reliability of the two proposed prediction methods, comparisons with the in situ CPTU tests of marine soft clay in two coastal areas and two existing prediction methods are made. The comparison results show that predictions of OCR of marine soft clay in this paper are close to Wayne’s method and more accurate than Chanmee’s method since the factors such as cone roughness and penetration rate are considered in the new proposed prediction methods. …”

The Principles of Administrative Law as a Prism for Assessing the Content of Normative and Legal Provisions: Opportunities for Identifying the Problems and Solutions by V. O. Ivantsov

“…The author of the article assesses the content of administrative normative and legal acts (on the example of legal regulation of restrictions on receiving gifts) through the prism of modern understanding of the principles of administrative law, which made it possible to distinguish a number of problems for determining the content of some of them and to work out the ways to solve them, namely: 1) Having studied the norms of the laws of Ukraine “On Prevention of Corruption” and “On Charitable Activities and Charitable Organizations” through the prism of the principle of humanism and justice in the relations between the individual and the state, it is proved that the legal possibility in the sphere of legal relations in the sphere cannot be restricted (forbidden) humanism and charity; 2) an analysis of the law enforcement practice of implementing the prohibition on gift giving has often revealed a flagrant violation of the rule of law; emphasized that ensuring the legal certainty of the described ban can be ensured by revealing its content by the National Anti-Corruption Agency; 3) installed: – uncertainty about the specific characteristics of “allowed gifts”, which requires amendments to the Law of Ukraine “On Corruption Prevention” to exclude them or to provide clear explanations within the framework of the NACC Guidelines; – violation of the provisions of the Typical Anti-Corruption Program of a Legal Entity approved by the Decision of NAPC No. 75 dated from March 2, 2017 No. 75 on the principle of hierarchical highness of law, which requires amendments to them in accordance with the provisions of the Art. 23 of the Law of Ukraine "On Prevention of Corruption", which defines uniform rules for determining the amount of "allowed gift"; – the content of the concept of "gift" does not correspond to such an important element of the rule of law as "prohibition of discrimination and equality before the law", which requires amendments to the Law of Ukraine "On Prevention of Corruption" in the part of the correction of the concept of "gift" as such is bounded by the restriction of "family-private" relations not related to the performance of functions of the state or local self-government. …”
