ENTOMOPHAGY: ARE INSECTS SAFE FOR HUMAN FOOD?

Edible insects are a promising product for the Russian food market. This is due to their high nutritional value, the presence of essential amino acids, useful omega‑3 and omega‑6 polyunsaturated fatty acids. The balanced content of macro- and microelements in the composition of such a product allows us to talk about its potential benefits for human health. However, at present there is no reliable information about the attitude of Russian citizens to eating insects. The adult population has a more traditional view of nutrition, preferring proven types of food in their consumer basket. As a result of the study, it was found that women are 50% more likely to express concerns about the safety of edible insects compared to men and, in general, are more negatively disposed towards entomophagy (edible insects and products made from them). On the other hand, men are more likely to assume that the population is not ready to try insect foods because people are not sure of their safety. From the point of view of women, consumers are concerned about the lack of available scientific information on this topic and consider this issue to be insufficiently studied. Among all respondents, 80% answered that a TV report on the health benefits of edible insects would not change their attitude towards entomophagy. Moreover, 44% of respondents consider it inexpedient to open production facilities for edible insects in Russia. This judgment is consistent with their opinion about the low safety of food from insects. Women were twice as likely to respond negatively to the question about permitting the production of edible insects in Russia compared to men.

Criminal TV report: assessment methodology (on the example of the Republic of Buryatia)

This article attempts to develop methodology for assessing criminal TV reports. The subject of this research is the criteria for assessing the quality of criminal TV report. For conducting detailed assessment of criminal TV report, all criteria were divided into four groups: compliance with legal norms; observance of ethical standards; usage of legal terminology; and adherence to technological parameters. For the assessment of first criterion, all legal norms in criminal TV report can be divided into the following categories: appropriate coverage of investigation, coverage trial, and coverage of situation when the offender or the victim is a minor. In assessment of the parameter “usage of legal terminology", it is emphasized that the journalist should apply such terms as “suspect” and “offender” properly. In analysis of the third parameter, we author relies on the criteria proposed by S. A. Muratov. The questions of improvement of TV content, specifically with regards to criminal journalism, remain relevant. This described methodology would help to improve the forms of submission of the materials and heighten the interest of target audience of mass media. The research was conducted in several steps. Firstly, the author examined the structure of criminal content of Arig Us TV channel. Secondly, , carried out classification of criminal TV reports by topic. Thirdly, developed parameters and criteria for quality assessment of criminal TV reports. And finally, at the stage of testing, analyzed the quality of criminal TV reports. The methods used in the course of this research include classification, analysis, and paperwork.

The impact of a TV report in schizophrenia stigma reduction: A quasi-experimental study.

Stigma is a major problem in schizophrenia, and the most effective way to reduce it is to provide information. But literature lacks studies evaluating long-term efficacy of mass communication. This is a pilot study to assess if a brief intervention (TV report) may have long-term effects. Assessing stigma scores from subjects before and after seeing a vignette. We found that the social distance and restriction to patients not only fell after a brief intervention but also kept lower after 1 and 3 months. We conclude that even brief intervention may create persistent impact in reducing discrimination.

Audio-visual metaphors of the financial crisis: meaning making and the flow of experience

This paper advocates a perspective on metaphors in audio-visual media that conceives of these as processes of meaning making, i.e., as dynamic embodied conceptualizations, constitutively bound to the flow of experience. This involves experience in a double sense: as immediate affection through an audio-visually orchestrated form of movement experience and as sensory-motor experiences of metaphoric source domains. Drawing on an interdisciplinary (linguistic and film analysis) method, this study presents an analysis of a German political TV report on winners and losers of the financial crisis. The goal of this case study is twofold: to reconstruct the complexity of metaphoric meaning making in audio-visual media and to illustrate a theoretical claim: that metaphors in audio-visual compositions emerge dynamically from sensory and affective experiences.

Neural Correlates of Risk Perception during Real-Life Risk Communication

During global health crises, such as the recent H1N1 pandemic, the mass media provide the public with timely information regarding risk. To obtain new insights into how these messages are received, we measured neural data while participants, who differed in their preexisting H1N1 risk perceptions, viewed a TV report about H1N1. Intersubject correlation (ISC) of neural time courses was used to assess how similarly the brains of viewers responded to the TV report. We found enhanced intersubject correlations among viewers with high-risk perception in the anterior cingulate, a region which classical fMRI studies associated with the appraisal of threatening information. By contrast, neural coupling in sensory-perceptual regions was similar for the high and low H1N1-risk perception groups. These results demonstrate a novel methodology for understanding how real-life health messages are processed in the human brain, with particular emphasis on the role of emotion and differences in risk perceptions.

Research on the effect of boutique motels' environmental facilities and consumers' individual preferences in pursuits of new sensation on their overnighting intentions

Hoteliers in Taiwan re-manifest the prosperity of motels originally seen in the U.S. Most Taiwanese associate motels with sex, yet this negative image has not hindered the development of motels in Taiwan. Hoteliers spend efforts to be creative and daring in their managements to meet consumers' needs, and are aggressive in making hotels refined and casual so that they are no longer merely spaces to overnight. Therefore, this research investigates whether criteria such as location, facilities, service, and prices serve to actually meet the needs of consumers. We do so by sending out questionnaires to consumers who have visited motels, and inquire also about the difference of perceptions towards services and facilities provided by hoteliers. Further, we investigate overnighters' intention of motel stays and their demographics. Our analysis tools include confidence and validity levels in SPSS 14.0, and independent T sampling, etc. Our Cronbach's value has reached above 0.8 in confidence level. Through literature review and the analysis done on the 272 valid questionnaires returned, we found that the boutique motels are no longer ones situated near main highways that enjoy transportation convenience and high level of entertainment when nearby metropolises. Through literature review and the receipt of the valid 272 questionnaires returned, we find in our analysis that today's boutique motels are no longer merely for the purpose overnights and situated at main roads, but rather possess high convenience and entertainment and casual qualities in downtown areas. From categories based on Placement Attachment, we found that consumers go to motels no longer for resting and overnighting, but rather, for romantic dates and get-togethers with friends. They are influenced by outside stimulation such as magazine recommendations, TV report coverage, and internet introductions, all serving to raise their interests in and impressions of motels, so as to increase their intentions to overnight in motels. Our Analysis of Pursuits of New sensation further proves that the higher one scores on the pursuits of new sensation indicates a difference preference in motels facilities.

My Fabulous Baku Fortune

Alt first, at least, it was not an every time occurrence, one or two of my visits might pass without the topic coming up, but pretty soon even the lapses felt like missed beats in a persisting rhythm. My mother and I would go out to lunch, or we would stroll up Riverside Drive, or, later, we would be sitting in a doctor's waiting room, and we would end up talking about Baku-she carried forward on the gusts of enthusiasm for her pre-Revolutionary childhood there, me trailing along and trying to hold my deflating cynicism in check. We were, in fact, resuming a conversation begun long ago, but which had abruptly collapsed-my doing, not hers. Baku was always a big deal in the Kahan family, but also a big sore spot for me, and I had kept the topic at arm' s length for years. Now there was no stopping my mother. Once she was diagnosed with advanced stage melanoma, she took it as her right to talk to me about whatever she wanted to. Given this new license, my mother found events that jogged her memory all around her, carried in the common air. After seeing a TV report on an oil spill off the California coast, she told me, Baku harbor always had oil in it. Not from a spill, just naturally. One night when I was five, my grandfather took me to the harbor as a special treat. The Caspian was on fire, really on fire. Some English lords and their ladies were passing through Baku, and to make a spectacle for these grand visitors the governor-general had torches dropped from a barge. The sea burst into flames. I thought it was some kind of magic trick. We were sitting in a Columbus Avenue cafe that my mother liked. Before my father's death, she had not been much for going out, but in the decade since she often preferred out to in, to fill up the emptiness,

Injection Technique in Infants-Reply

In Reply.— Dr Silber properly questions the appropriateness of the photograph that was included in the article entitled TV Report on DTP Galvanizes US Pediatricians. We agree with him that the anterolateral aspect of the thigh is the location of choice for immunization of infants and regret that the photography showed an incorrect procedure. The photograph published was furnished from stock photographs at the Centers for Disease Control. We have now destroyed the remaining stock of this photograph to ensure that similar errors do not occur in the future. We share the views of the Committee on Infectious Diseases of the American Academy of Pediatrics, which states the following in the most recentRed Book: Injectable vaccines should be administered in an area as free as possible of opportunity for a local neural, vascular, or tissue injury. In the past, the upper, outer quadrant of the buttocks was frequently selected
