Synthesis, characterisation and crystal structure of a novel pyridyl urea macrocycle
No full textA novel pyridyl urea based macrocycle has been synthesised and fully characterised including a single crystal X-ray structure determination. The synthetic approach first involves the reaction of benzyloxycarbonylaminopropyl-3-isocyanate with t-butyl 2-[(2-aminopyridin-3-yl)oxy]acetate resulting in a coupling product. After deprotection of the amine and acid moieties and coupling subsequent coupling in the presence of 1-ethyl-3-(3-dimethylaminopropyl)carbodiimide (EDC), a macrocycle is formed. The structures of the compounds were confirmed by mass spectrometry and NMR spectroscopy. The X-ray crystal structure of the macrocycle reveals as expected a non-binding conformation with an intramolecular hydrogen bond between the urea NH and the pyridyl nitrogen

Soil Analytical Capabilities for Sustainable Land Management Across National Soil Services in the Mediterranean
No full textSoil monitoring is essential for pursuing several sustainable development goals including ‘Zero Hunger’ and ‘Life on Land’. This study examined the status of national soil monitoring laboratories in Mediterranean countries through a multi-country survey to assess strengths and gaps. The results showed that most national soil labs performed basic tests related to soil health and agricultural management, such as texture, pH, and nutrient analysis. However, fewer labs performed more specific tests that are also relevant to these applications such as compaction and biological analysis. Furthermore, tests required for assessing soil pollution, such as heavy metals, were conducted only by few labs. This was mostly due to a lack of equipment like atomic absorption spectrometers. In total, 75% of labs reported good quality of the instruments and frequent calibration. The staff were generally well qualified, with most holding graduate degrees, and women comprised 58% of the staff. Many national services started using electronic reports and provided result interpretation for end users, but not all used lab information systems. The findings highlight the need for better equipment, more advanced testing, and stronger digital management systems. Addressing these issues will help harmonize soil data and support sustainable land management and agriculture in the region

Musical Instruments in Al-Jahiz
No full textفي كتابات الجاحظ، تناول أديب العرب الجاحظ قضايا الموسيقى والطرب والغناء. كان الجاحظ معروفًا بعلمه وأدبه، وكتب العديد من الأعمال التي تسلط الضوء على جوانب الحياة المترفة في المجتمع. كتب كتابًا بعنوان "أخلاق المغنين" وآخر بعنوان "المغنين والغناء والصنعة". في هذه الكتب، دافع الجاحظ عن الغناء كفن فني، ورأى أنه يمتلك قواعد وأسسًا علمية تشابه مع غيره من الفنون والآداب. كان يروج للغناء باعتباره متعة فنية. وعلى الرغم من انتمائه للمعتزلة، إلا أن الجاحظ كان مشجعًا للغناء ومغنين، وكتب عن أخلاقهم وفنونهم. وفي رسالته "القيان"، تناول الجاحظ تأثير بيوت القيان والقيان نفسهن في المجتمع الإسلامي، حيث أشار إلى الفسق والعشق والفجور الذي قد ينتج عن هذا التأثير. بشكل عام، تركت كتابات الجاحظ أثرًا مهمًا في فهمنا لثقافة الموسيقى والطرب والغناء في العصور القديمة.In his writings, the Arab author Al-Jahiz addressed issues related to music, Tarab (a genre of music), and singing. Al-Jahiz was known for his knowledge and literature, and he wrote numerous works that shed light on the luxurious aspects of society. He authored a book titled "Ethics of Singers" and another titled "Singers, Singing, and the Craft." In these books, Al-Jahiz defended singing as an artistic form and believed that it possessed scientific principles and foundations similar to other arts and literature. He promoted singing as a pleasurable art form. Despite his affiliation with the Mu\u27tazila school of thought, Al-Jahiz was a supporter of singing and singers, and he wrote about their ethics and arts. In his treatise "Al-Qiyan," Al-Jahiz discussed the influence of courtesans and their households on Islamic society, pointing to the immorality, passion, and vice that may result from this influence. Overall, Al-Jahiz\u27s writings have had a significant impact on our understanding of music, Tarab, and singing in ancient times

Writer Ahmed Youssef Aqeela has benefited from this collective oral popular memory, where the minds and generations of the Libyan people integrate and record this heritage in his literature. The novel "Hikayat Najaa" is a popular and cultural inventory of Libyan folktales and realities that have conveyed to us the nature of life in the Libyan Bedouin society. This Libyan cultural heritage emphasizes the similarity or resemblance of life in Libyan society and preserving the distinctive Libyan character traits. The events of "Hikayat Najaa" remain stuck in the collective popular memory of the Libyan people, living on their lips, fully preserved in the folkloric memory of the Libyan people. The methodology used in this research is the descriptive method that describes the aspects of the impact and influence of Libyan popular heritage and its manifestations in the novel "Hikayat Najaa" by the writer Aqeela. It analyzes the characters and events within the framework of this great heritage.

The role of “citizen journalist” in Arab revolution from the perspective of the elites in Arab media (Syria model) / Areej Al Bostangy
No full textThe Arab Spring has been shaped by successive episodes of the revolutions of freedom, the largest geopolitical movement that has rocked the Arab world and the Middle East since the 1960s, which witnessed the eruption of the so-called national revolution that sanctified the Arab exodus from the yoke of old colonialism and their aspiration to independence, freedom, dignity and national sovereignty, like other nations. This study aimed at determines the role played by the citizen journalist in the Arab spring, and to identify the impact of the citizen journalist in the Syrian revolution. In order to achieve the objective of the study, a questionnaire was designed as a main tool for collecting data. It included (42) items divided into four variables (credibility, professional, quality and contributions). The sample comprised of (300) individual's that selected randomly from all the media elite who work in Jordan. After the distribution of the questionnaire and data collection, the SPSS software was used to answer the study questions through the use of descriptive analysis. The study found that the degree of acceptance of the media elite to the work of citizen journalism ranked first compared to other sources of news (such as television and newspapers), the role provided by the citizen journalist did not rise to the level of the other media, the respondents' estimates of the ability of the "citizen journalism" to fill the vacuum resulting from confusion and official misrepresentation through their technological tools such as the telephone came out clearly against this idea; and the role of the journalist citizen is disproportionate to the professional and ethical characteristics known within the work environment of the media, as there is a significant weakness in the ability of the journalist to apply the standards used in the real media. In the light of the results the study recommended that the findings of the present study showed that most of the news and information provide by citizen journalist not credible and not professional. Thus, it's important to create a control group in order to monitor all kind of news provides by a citizen journalist, and this study relied on individuals primarily composed of the media elite who worked in Jordan. It would be valuable to investigate the role of the citizen journalist in other populations, including media elite from other countries. Conducting these studies highlights the real and actual role of citizen journalism in the Arab revolutions, and there could be differences in the evaluation of the citizen journalist role
