Geographical Distribution of Betting Shops and Their Proximity to Schools: (Non-)Compliance with Regulations in the City of Madrid.

The proliferation of betting shops in Spanish cities is causing a heated social debate in response to the undesirable impacts that businesses of this kind can have. As a result, associations and social movements have emerged to try to stem their expansion and, at the same time, regulations have been introduced to prevent the uncontrolled opening of this type of premises. The limitations set out in the legislation include minimum distances between betting shops and schools. In order to understand the spatial dimension of this phenomenon and to find out the extent to which these businesses comply with the regulations in force, in this paper, we study the distribution of betting shops in the city of Madrid and their proximity to each other and to schools. The results reveal certain areas of the city with a high density of betting shops and with schools with high exposure to these businesses. Likewise, results show the significant number of businesses that would have to close (81%; n = 416) if the current moratorium on betting shops that opened their doors before the current legislation came into force did not exist.

Detection of Freshness of Fish using Machine Learning Techniques on Vyas Municipality, Nepal

The historical narrative of the fish trade is well-document in various sources. However, the concerning prevalence of fish traders vending spoiled fish poses a significant threat to human health, prompting specific research inquiries. The study aimed to address key questions: What quality of healthy fish do traders sell? How effective are their fish storage methods? What's the duration between fish purchase and consumer access? The study objectives were devised to uncover a actual condition of the fish on sale, assess storage practices, and determine the selling timeline. To achieve these aims, the study employed the EfficientNetB1 machine learning model, chosen for its simplicity and high accuracy.

The role of local government in marketing small city retailing: Examining the gap between perception and reality

ABSTRACT The role of local government in ensuring cities and town centres are attractive options for shoppers is well documented in the international literature. However, there is a paucity of research on the role and responsibility of local governments in tackling the complex marketing issues facing town and city retailing, particularly in regional and rural areas in Australia. Australian retailing differs markedly from retailing in the UK, U.S.A and Europe in a number of ways including fewer large, global retail stores, fewer large shopping centres and malls, and a slower uptake of online shopping. This paper reports a set of findings from a larger published study on consumer and retailer perceptions of the role of local government in the marketing of city-centre shopping and improving the overall experience for visitors in a regional Australian city. This research was commissioned by the local council. Traders and shoppers (N = 367) were surveyed on their perceptions of various aspects of city shopping. Qualitative data were analysed using the software program Leximancer to extract themes and concepts regarding specific actions the local council should take to improve city shopping and market the CBD to better attract shoppers and visitors. Findings show four main themes requiring council attention, as well as four additional and important retail-related factors identified by participants as the responsibility of the local city council, but which are actually not within the remit of local government. The findings of this study extend existing literature on town centre and small city retail marketing and are valuable for local governments, business associations, marketing organisations and individual business owners. Findings will assist efforts in two crucial activities: the marketing of cities and towns as attractive destinations for shoppers and visitors and improving and enhancing communication between councils and key stakeholders about the role of local government in marketing city-centre retail places

Policies restricting flavors and non-cigarette tobacco product availability: A study of vape shops in San Francisco and Alameda Counties, California, USA

We examined flavored non-cigarette tobacco availability in brick-and-mortar vape shops in San Francisco (SF) and Alameda Counties, California (USA), comparing cities organized by flavored tobacco sales restriction policy. A total of 22 brick-and-mortar vape shops were identified and audited in October-November 2019; shops were located in SF City-County and nine cities in Alameda County. Fisher Exact Tests were used to assess differences in the availability of products between vape shops in cities with versus without comprehensive or partial flavored tobacco sales restrictions enacted before November 21, 2019 (n = 15 shops in six cities with policies vs n = 7 shops in four cities without policies). In the six cities with any flavored sales restrictions, fewer vape shops sold menthol/mint flavored JUUL pods (27% vs 71%, p = 0.074), candy/fruit (53% vs 100%, p = 0.051) and menthol/mint (53% vs 100%, p = 0.051) nicotine e-cigarette liquids compared to cities without flavored tobacco sales restrictions, but results were borderline significant. Tobacco-flavored JUUL pods (47% vs 71%, p = 0.381), tobacco-flavored nicotine e-cigarette liquids (67% vs 100%, p = 0.135), and flavored e-cigarette liquids without nicotine (candy/fruit: 87% vs 71%, p = 0.565 and menthol/mint: 87% vs 57%, p = 0.274) were not included in the policies, and availability was not significantly different between cities with or without policies. Enactment of local policies was associated with lower flavored e-cigarette tobacco product availability but not tobacco-flavored or non-nicotine product availability; federal policies restricting sales of flavored tobacco products may reduce access to flavored e-cigarette products in vape shops.

Kharkiv in the Period of Interpower: Maintenance of Law in the City at the End of 1918

The article deals with the situation in the city of Kharkiv at the end of 1918. At this time, Ukraine was experiencing the completion of one more historical stage, preparing for new, more turbulent and tragic events. German troops which have been the guarantors of security of the state over the past ten months were evacuated from its territory, a popular uprising broke out against the hetman Pavlo Skoropadsky, the republican authorities that recognized the Directory were forming slowly, local Bolsheviks and other left-wing groups were getting noticeably more active. In December 1918 all these forces were represented in the provincial Kharkiv. Some of them, for example, the German command and the hetman's guard, tried to transfer power to their successors in an organized manner. Others, on the contrary, tried to get to the controls as soon as possible. This multi-power lasted about a month, which became a real ordeal for the inhabitants of the city. Kharkovites tried to figure out a kaleidoscope of political developments, a variety of orders and decrees, the intricacies of official information and street rumors. Meanwhile, the criminal situation became more and more threatening: gangs of looters raged in rural districts, and shots were fired more often in Kharkiv itself. In the second half of December, the number of the city shops robberies became impressive. At that time, several influential forces were engaged in law enforcement: the German commandant’s office, the hetman’s guard, Directory fighters and socialist squads. However, all their efforts did not give the desired result, and ordinary Kharkovites were forced to organize self-defense units to protect their own homes. The culmination of anarchy in the city was the Bolshevik uprising on January 1–2, 1919, as a result of which Kharkiv was captured by armed units of the Red Army.

Retail Shopping Mall Security: Raising Awareness of Crime Risks Against Business in Zimbabwe (A Case Study of Joina City Shopping Mall, Harare—June 2011–July 2012)

This research study was set out to carry exploratory work on local level security and rates of crime against business, develop insights, and raise awareness of security and crime risks at office/retail shopping malls in Harare, Zimbabwe, built upon the methodology and practice of a “premises survey” carried out at Joina City Mall as a case study (June 2011–July 2012). Arguing on the basis that the topic of crime against business, particularly the retail shopping mall premised businesses (fast food restaurants, grocery stores, clothing shops, chemists, jewelry shops, and banks, among others), has received considerable attention, but only in an “international”—particularly “Western” countries, national and social—context, it is still underexplored in mainly emerging economies like Zimbabwe, and given its growth and revenue of this sector, it is prudent that considerable research be conducted to determine the best practices to keep facilities, tenants, their staff, and customers safe. Finally, bench marking on the total security systems approach, the article further argues that office/shopping mall facilities desire an effective security program designed to aid prevention and reduction of crime by incorporating on the whole and/or into potential targets features which make criminal activity less appealing for the criminal and/or disrupt the causes of the criminal events. This to say that, while no one variable of itself may attain the desired results, depending on the risks, several can coordinate to attain even better results. For example, in this case, to help create a safer shopping environment and grow businesses at town/city malls.

Riesgo de establecimiento del gasterópodo dulceacuícola invasor Melanoides tuberculatus (Thiaridae) en el Río de la Plata (Argentina-Uruguay)

Melanoides tuberculatus is a cosmopolitan gastropod that has invaded and has now spread into most countries of the American continent. Introduction pathways remain unknown in most cases. This work draws attention on the colonization risks of this species in the Rio de la Plata area as a consequence of its record in flower and pet shops – in the city of La Plata (Buenos Aires, Argentina) - in which limnic species are sold. The species was identified at the beginning of 2009 within a lot of 29 specimens from a shop, and this is the southernmost record of this species in the Plata Basin. Subsequent surveys in 3 commercial shops in the same city revealed its presence in 2 of them. This was related to the purchase of ornamental plants by the shops. Identification of this species in the city of La Plata should be carefully assessed, because of the potential consequences that settlement of this mollusk in the Rio de la Plata may have on displacement of the local fauna and on public health.

Molecular Epidemiology of Brucella Genotypes in Patients at a Major Hospital in Central Peru

The multiple-locus variable-number repeat analysis of 90 human Brucella melitensis isolates from a large urban area in central Peru revealed variations at 4 (Bruce07, Bruce09, Bruce18, and Bruce42) out of 16 loci investigated, of which 1 (Bruce42) also is used for species identification. Ten genotypes were identified, separated by the number of Bruce42 repeats into two groups that may have distinct phenotypic characteristics. Whereas genotypes with five or six Bruce42 repeats were cultured mainly from adult patients, genotypes with three Bruce42 repeats were isolated from children and young adolescents as well as from adults. In addition, the isolates with three Bruce42 repeats were obtained more often from patients with splenomegaly (P = 0.02) or hepatomegaly (P = 0.006). An annual variation in the diversity of genotypes was observed, possibly reflecting changes in sources of fresh dairy products, supply routes to city shops and markets, and the movement of infected dairy goat herds.

The rise of the British pharmaceutical industry.

The growth of the modern pharmaceutical industry took place largely in western Europe and the United States. At the beginning of the nineteenth century little distinction could be found between, on the one hand, the American corner shop that sold drugs, the British chemist's shop, or, in Germany and elsewhere, the apothecary and, on the other hand, importers, manufacturers, and wholesale drug traders. Drug exchanges operated in major trading ports, so in Philadelphia, New York, London, and Amsterdam the trade had a selfgoverning body that helped to minimise bad business practices, especially overcharging by shippers. For the most part, however, trade consisted of representatives or proprietors of large pharmacies going to the ports when shipments came in and bargaining directly with shipping agents for bulk purchases. These purchases would typically be processed in a very preliminary fashion, cleaned, sorted, and packaged, and then enter the wholesale trade as materia medica.'3 Companies such as Allen and Hanbury, Jacob Bell, and Thomas Morson, all small London operators, established standard working arrangements whereby they would conduct retail trade from their city shops and maintain warehouses with compounding rooms from which they would serve as wholesalers to retailers in south east England. Trade was well established by the early years of the century with most suppliers offering complete ranges of medicines but perhaps concentrating on the larger scale processing of a few types of items. So when Thomas Morson returned from studying in Paris, where he came under the influence of Pelletier and others who were working on quinine products, he began to cultivate a reputation for processing quinine for the English market. Similarly, Allen and Hanbury began a company practice of processing oils as part of their efforts to supply their market with some lines that were less well served previously.4 As pharmaceutical firms grew from apothecary shops to family companies and then to large corporations, their relation with the medical community also changed. Pharmacists held a tenuous place in the medical world of the nineteenth century, although they provided important services to those members of the public who did not use doctors and supplied those who did with medicines. Towards the end of the century drug makers distanced themselves from pharmacists and their informal practice of medicine. As the distinction grew between reputable manufacturers who sought the professional market-ethical pharmaceutical producers-and the popular medicine makers, the large companies looked for a compromise between the two. They hoped to establish reputations for quality but also to reap the profits from patent or proprietary medicines.4
