MEDIA IN SHAPING THE IMAGE OF POLISH AGRICULTURE FROM THE FARMERS’ PERSPPECTIVE

The research aimed to verify farmers’ views on the impact of content presented in various types of media on the image of Polish agriculture. The 147 responses obtained show that the surveyed farmers negatively assess the impact of traditional media on the image of Polish agriculture. Content presented via social media was positively received. How the media present aspects of agricultural activity and the farmer’s profession in contact with retail customers turned out to be more critical for farmers running smaller farms (36% of respondents rated this issue as necessary). Respondents recognized the importance of presence in social media, but the most frequently mentioned was gaining customers’ trust (73%). Social media presence was more important for farmers operating on smaller farms – those where retail sales were more common. The growing awareness of the needs of modern consumers is indicated by the high percentage of respondents noting that building relationships with customers requires reliable information about product features (53%), concern for the state of the natural environment (46%) and animal welfare (37%).

U.S. Adolescents' Exposure to Alcohol Marketing: Self-Reported Exposure on the Internet and Traditional Media.

Youth exposure to alcohol marketing is a risk factor for underage drinking. In the U.S., research documents the impact of youth exposure to alcohol marketing through traditional media (e.g., TV, radio) on underage drinking, with less known about digital alcohol marketing exposure. This study aims to examine adolescents' self-reported exposure to alcohol marketing on various types of media, including the internet, by their demographic characteristics. Data were from the 2021 YouthStyles survey administered by Porter Novelli. Adolescents aged 12-17 years (N=833) completed this national online survey. Two multivariable logistic regression models were conducted in October 2022-April 2023 to examine exposure to alcohol marketing on 2 categories of media (watching TV, streaming videos, or going to the movies or browsing the internet). Models included race/ethnicity, age, gender, and past-week number of hours using the media category being assessed. More than half of the U.S. adolescents reported being sometimes or often exposed to alcohol marketing. Hispanic adolescents had approximately 1.6 greater adjusted odds than non-Hispanic White adolescents of reporting sometimes or often being exposed to alcohol marketing while watching TV, streaming videos, or going to the movies and while browsing the internet. As adolescents' age increased, self-reported alcohol marketing exposure also increased for both media categories assessed. Monitoring alcohol marketing exposure, including exposure on the internet, can inform efforts for reducing racial/ethnic disparities in underage drinking risk factors.

Research on the Transformation and Upgrading of News Media based on the Internet of Things era

The rise of the so-called "Internet of Things" heralds the arrival of innovative improvements in the dissemination technologies that are the basis for the development and improvement of a wide variety of forms of media. It has gone a long way from the early days of digitization and networking, and now it even incorporates intelligence. In the past, it did not have this capability. The widespread adoption of technology based on the Internet of Things will lead to profound shifts in the efficiency of media communication, as well as the transformation and upgrading of communication intelligence, the explosive growth of the communication platform, the emergence of a high degree of integration between "content production" and new communication techniques, and other developments related to these trends. It is generally agreed upon that the Internet of Things will be the primary impetus behind the next age of information technology as well as the expansion of the global economy. It is communicative, modular, and organized when it comes to the transmission of information. The ever-expanding media sector won't be a problem for this roomy facility. People's perspectives on the function of the media will shift as a result of the Internet of Things since it will make it feasible to intelligently update various types of media that are already in existence. Consumers will have access to a broad range of data presented in a number of formats as a direct consequence of the Internet of Things. It is feasible to expand the media applications of the Internet of Things by concentrating on one of these three areas: the development of a new media service system; the production of new media content; or the undertaking of a new media life challenge. This article examines the deconstruction of the primary body of dissemination pertaining to the Internet of Things from five distinct vantage points. Topics covered include the Internet of Things' news dissemination materials as well as dissemination objects. There are a number of different ways in which the framework of news dissemination may be made more effective, including bringing it up to date, enhancing its function, improving its platforms, fortifying its content, and increasing the breadth of its coverage. In terms of rebuilding and reconstruction, talk about the positive and constructive functions that modern information technology plays in the news broadcasting industry. In addition, the purpose of this article is to investigate the impact that the Internet of Things has on the method by which news is disseminated and the media business as a whole, as well as the relationship that exists between the social application of IoT technology and the news media. This article will hopefully widen the breadth of usage for internet of things technology in the news distribution sector by investigating a variety of different techniques. It is anticipated that in addition to accomplishing this goal, this work will also contribute to the proliferation of conventional media.

However, the use of graphic design among the general public is still low, so this research aims to convey knowledge and benefits of graphic design in general and to improve the community's economy in particular.

Formation of a Positive Image of People with Disabilities in Modern Russian Media as the Basis for their Social Inclusion

Introduction. The social policy of the Russian state is aimed at involving socially vulnerable groups of the population in all spheres of social life. One of the most important mechanisms of social inclusion is the formation of a positive image of people with disabilities in modern Russian media. Studying the features of the representation of people with disabilities in various types of media will form the basis for their future sociological monitoring and the creation of a positive image of people with disabilities in Russian society.Methodology and sources. The methodological basis of the study is the works of Russian and foreign sociologists devoted to the problems of social inclusion of people with disabilities. An integrative and inclusive approach is substantiated to ensure a transition from solving situational problems to the comprehensive implementation of inclusive practices for people with disabilities. The main research method is qualitative content analysis of articles from federal media and social media.Results and discussion. The conducted research and comparison of its results with a previously performed analysis of the representation of people with disabilities in the federal media made it possible to identify the main features of the formation of a positive image of people with disabilities in social media in accordance with the principles of social inclusion. In social media, the image of people with disabilities, more often than in traditional media, is constructed through the stories of individual representatives of this social group, a description of their life and everyday life. Such an approach, according to the authors, is a more effective tool for the social inclusion of people with disabilities than materials about the social group as a whole and the benefits provided to them, which more often appear in traditional media. Also, a special approach requires studying the comments under the main materials, which are the main difference between social media and traditional media.Conclusion. Based on the author's comparative research, conclusions are drawn about differences in the representation of people with disabilities in traditional media and social media. Based on these findings, directions for improving the activities of Russian media in creating a positive image of people with disabilities are formulated, and recommendations for further study of the representation of people with disabilities in the media are presented.

Information Security for Audio Steganography Using a Phase Coding Method

The art and science of steganography are dedicated to concealing the presence of a secret message from a third party, such that only the sender and recipient are aware of its content. Various types of media can be used to conceal these communications. When information is hidden in an audio signal, this is referred to as audio steganography. In this paper, two distinct steganography techniques are combined with a multi-level steganography approach: the initial message is embedded in an audio cover at the initial stage, employing, a modified LSB technique, additionally, the second message is embedded in the output from the first level, using a phase coding approach at the second level. A stego audio file is the second level's output containing two audio covers with secret messages. The message is split in multiple ways, with varying proportions between the two levels, in order to investigate how the message's size affects the two procedures used here as well as the levels. The PSNR, MSE, and histogram metrics are used to compare the original and stego audio, in order to assess the effectiveness of the suggested approach. The optimum outcome is achieved when the message is divided in the ratio (1:1). The worst outcome is achieved when the message is divided in the ratio (3:1)

Реактивація паремій із ойконімом КИЇВ у сучасній комунікації

The article describes the process of reactivation of paremies with the oikonym "Kyiv" in Ukrainian-language communication. The status of paremias in modern linguistics is considered, various approaches to the understanding and scientific interpretation of paremia units are presented, in particular, their study in a broad perspective is necessary – as sayings and proverbs, precedent sayings, aphorisms, etc. The author emphasizes the most commonly used paremic constructions in Ukrainian, such as язик до Києва доведе, Київ – мати міст руських, як до Києва рачки, etc. On the material of lexicographic works, artistic texts of Ukrainian literature, spoken and media communications, parallels are drawn with the usage and functional possibilities of paremys with the oikonym "Kyiv". It was followed how paremic units with the element "Kyiv" in their structure changed and transformed in mass communication. The status of media paremia and its discursive parameters are also determined. A separate locus of the article is devoted to new phraseological units that appear in mass communication. Thus, paremias are actualized in various types of media, in the structure of which the lexeme "Kyiv" is a key manipulator: Kyiv holds the blow; Maidan starts from Kyiv; take Kyiv in three days; This is Kyiv, baby; KyivNotKiev, etc. The "discussion" of such paremias is also an indication of the dynamism of such constructions in mass communication, which is motivated by the needs of the media to influence the recipients. It was found that the occurrenceq of paremies with the oikonym "Kyiv" is a frequent phenomenon associated with the status of the city in the geopolitics, economy, and culture of Ukraine. Such a complex of extra-lingual factors indicates the dynamism of the structure and stylistic possibilities of paremias, capable of being actualized in new communicative conditions.

Propagation of Date Palm (Phoenix dactylifera L.) Cultivar Jawzi Using Shoot Tip

This study reports the successful establishment of a somatic embryogenesis technique for the mass production of a date palm Jawzi cultivar using shoot tip explants. The shoot tip, leaf primordia, and the ground of apical meristems were utilised as explants in the research. The study involved the utilisation of various types of media. It began with initiation media (IM), which had two stages for inducing embryogenesis. This was followed by multiplication media (MM), then elongation shoot media (EM), and finally rooting media (RM) and acclimatization. Embryo induction in the different media types required 50-53 weeks. The first stage, IM2, (3.0 mg.l-l 2iP, 10.0 mg.l-l NAA and 5.0 mg.l-l 2,4-D) for 12 weeks. This was followed by the second stage, IM3, which lasted for 38-41 weeks and included 1.0 mg.l-l BAP, 1.5 mg.l-l 2iP, and 1.0 mg.l-l NAA. These stages enabled us to achieve the optimal value for embryo induction. Afterward the MM3 (0.5. mg.l-l BAP, 0.5 mg.l-l 2iP and 0.5 mg.l-l KIN) showed the highest percentage of total counts of embryo multiplication, while the highest shoot length was attained on EM1 (1.0. mg.l-l BAP, 1.0 mg.l-l KIN and 0.1 mg.l-l IBA). The results also highlighted that RM1 (0.1 mg.l-l BAP, 0.1 mg.l-l KIN,1.0 mg.l-l NAA and 0.5 mg.l-l IBA) showed the highest roots length and roots number, in conclusion, these findings emphasise the importance of media composition in tissue culture protocols. Evaluating the effects of specific media components on different aspects of plant development can optimise tissue culture protocols for plant propagation.

Implementasi Aplikasi Steganografi Berbasis Web Menggunakan Algoritma LSB dan BPCS

Steganography is a method for concealing sensitive information in seemingly unremarkable data. In recent years, the use of steganography in web applications has become popular due to its accessibility and ability to conceal data in various types of media. Implementing a web-based steganography program that makes use of the Bit-Plane Complexity and Least Significant Bit algorithms is the aim of this project. To enable users to access the application through a browser, the system is constructed utilizing web technologies like HTML, CSS, and JavaScript during the design phase. The LSB and BPCS algorithms are employed as methods to embed secret data into user-selected images. The least significant bit of each image pixel is utilized to hold a secret piece of information using the straightforward steganography technique known as LSB. On the other hand, BPCS is a more complex steganography method that combines spatial and frequency domain analysis to hide data within high-quality images. The findings of this study show that the technique of hiding sensitive information within photos is successfully implemented by the web-based steganography program employing the LSB and BPCS algorithms.

Effectiveness Test of Several Media For Propagation Biological Agent Trichoderma sp.

The ecology is negatively impacted by conventional farming methods that keep using more chemicals. Reducing the usage of chemicals is one strategy to combat these adverse effects. Trichoderma sp. is a type of organic fertilizer and pesticide that is beginning to be used extensively. A fungus called Trichoderma sp. is present in all types of soil. Technology is required to mass produce Trichoderma sp. on various types of media because its limited mass manufacturing makes its usage on a broad scale still needs to be completed. This study aims to evaluate the suitability of various mediums as propagation vehicles for Trichoderma species. The State Polytechnic of Lampung's Plant Laboratory conducted this study using a completely randomized design with 5 media treatments. Each treatment consisted of 4 replications. The propagation media used in this study were PDA media as a control, bran, sawdust, corn and rice. The results showed that the most effective growth media for Trichoderma sp. was bran media. The growth of Trichoderma sp. on bran media after 4 days of incubation was 100%. The average number of conidia of Trichoderma sp. the highest was found in bran media, which was 1.17 × 103/g of media.

Is There a Difference between Paper and Electronic Chinese Signatures?

The purpose of this study is to investigate whether there are differences in handwritten Chinese signatures on different media including paper and electronic devices. Participants were asked to sign specified names on various types of media and the signatures were scanned or saved digitally for subsequent analysis. In this study, using convolutional neural networks and Siamese neural networks as classifiers and comparators, the performance plunge is revealed and thus considerable dissimilarity between the signatures on different media is implied. To further explore this, cubic Bézier curves are fitted to the signatures using the least square method for quantitative statistical analysis. By analyzing the visual changes in the morphology of strokes, several features of signatures are selected and computed, and the paired t‐test and the Wilcoxon signed‐rank test are implemented, which provides a deeper substantiation and explanation of the findings.

Potential release of trace metal ions from metallic orthodontic appliances and dental metal implants: A Review of in vitro and in vivo experimental studies

Metallic wear nanoparticles, corrosion products and trace metal ions release from metallic materials, e.g. metallic alloys and pure metals, implanted into the human and animal's body in orthodontic surgery is becoming a major cause for concern. Additionally, metallic wear nanoparticles can themselves undergo a corrosion process contributing to the total level of dissolved metal ions. This review briefly provides an overview of both metallic alloys and pure metals used in implant materials in dental surgery. A short section is dedicated to important biomaterials and their corrosive behavior in both real solutions and various types of media that model human and animal's biological fluids and tissues. The present review gives an overview of analytical methods, techniques and different approaches applied to the measurement of in vivo and in vitro trace metals released into body fluids and tissues from patients and animals carrying metal dental implants and metallic orthodontic appliances. Reference levels of ion concentrations in body fluids and tissues that have been determined by a host of studies are compiled, reviewed and presented in this paper. This review summarizes data, describing the potential toxicity of metal wear debris, free metallic ions and corrosion products release from metallic orthodontic appliances (metal surgical implants) in vivo and in vitro. Finally, a collection of published clinical data on in vivo and in vitro released trace metals from metal dental implants is included.

From the Neighbourhood of Firuzağa down the Rabbit Hole

Intermediality is a term to investigate the dialogues between imaginative texts from various types of media. Being a product of postmodern discourse, it has a massive influence on comparative literary studies, in that analyses with regard to intermedial considerations reinforce the impact area of the examined texts. This article aims at analysing Alice’s Adventures in Wonderland (1865) by Lewis Carroll and Serial Cook (2017) by Ümit Ünal in order to show how an old canonical literary work demonstrates itself in a contemporary imaginative text on a cognitive level. It is obvious that artists build up such textual connections on purpose as well, but such an interaction achieved undeliberately, though the receivers of texts can never be confident, is another issue that requires attention. I argue that Serial Cook can be considered as a 21st century reception of AAW in that it exhibits certain aspects of Lewis Carroll’s style and content. It is apparent that the main character, Neslihan becomes a contemporary version of Alice in the face of a serial killer who has difficulties in adjusting to the mechanisms of the community she is part of. Throughout the movie, we see her relentless efforts to speak for herself and settle a new life. Furthermore, in both texts one can observe presence of dream imagery, which appears as an apparatus of initiation of both characters.
