10.21276/sjhss.2018.3.9.8
This is an analysis, commentary, and critique of the “Planet of the Apes”
saga, with major focus on the 2011 film, “Rise of the Planet of the Apes”. The author
examines the film from the perspective of an extended and continuing, overarching
theme characterizing earlier films of the same: “Planet of the Apes” (1963), and “Planet
of the Apes” (2001). The issue of freedom and anthropocentric values defining things
human are examined in the face of what emerges as a merger or transformation of this
“humanity” to, and with apes, and thus, the creation of what the author describes as
“Apeity” in the film. The author examines what can be viewed as a bi-directional
“violation” of both Humanity and “Apeity” and describes this “violation” in terms of
its meaning to the concept of Humanity using various characters from these films and
explores the “apish” and “human” values and behaviors inherent in concepts of culture
– social psychological and sociological. The author evokes themes of anthropocentrism
and anthropomorphism in exploration of values, freedom, identity, and conflicts as
depicted in the ape saga. The author briefly examines the continuation of the social
humanism and conflicts in the 2014 film “The Dawn of the Planet of the Apes” into the
third presentation, “War of the Planet of the Apes” (2017). These ideas are presented in
relation to ideals of femininity and masculinity, individualism and collectivism relative
to definition of Humanity. Finally, the author reconciles this treatment of the film with
concurrent practices regarding human values and treatment of non-human creatures and
the ideas of human fate and future.

This prospective observational study was conducted in the Department of Pediatrics, Amaltas Institute of Medical Sciences, Dewas between March 2016 to August 2017. Patients were classified on the basis of detailed history, clinical examination, ECG record, chest x-ray, Weight-for-Height, age of diagnosis, follow up and other relevant investigations pertaining to the case. The correlation among the clinical examination, ECG & chest x-ray findings were studied. The predictive values of development of complications during the follow-up period by these 3 parameters were observed. Sex distribution, age of diagnosis, clinical examination, ECG, chest x-ray, weight for height, types of VSDs and development of complication on follow up of these patients were analyzed and classified accordingly. The complications of VSD are biventricular hypertrophy, congestive cardiac failure, Pulmonary hypertension, Eisenmenger Syndrome, aortic insufficiency, infective endocarditis& heart block (rare). In our study group 24/56 (42.8%) patients presented with biventricular hypertrophy & all of them were large sized VSDs. Out of25 large sized VSDs, 20 (35.7%) patients had congestive cardiac failure. 35 out of56 had pulmonary hypertension (62.5%), as evident by ECG (P pulmonale in lead II), clinical examination (palpable P2 & loud P2 on auscultation) & chest x-ray (enlarged Pulmonary Artery segment). 1 Patient out of 56 developed Eisenmenger Syndrome (1.7%). 1 Patient out of 56 developed infective endocarditis (1.7%). Prospective Observational Study. A detailed clinical history, clinic-radiological profile and ECG are very helpful in assessing severity and development of complications. Early diagnosis is required to aid the physician in referral of the patient to a specialized center for early surgery. Early diagnosis, proper referral as discussed above & management will help in preventing the associated complications, thereby reducing the mortality and morbidity in these children and improve their quality of life

10.36348/sijll.2018
This paper unfolds male stereotypical authoritative nature under the lens of reader response theory by Rosenblatt i.e. reader and text in The Bull and She Devil. This paper argues that a text has different meanings to different readers. Therefore, the theme of jealousy and anger is due to male authoritative nature and feelings of comparison in the selected short story. Based on the idea of transaction among the reader, text, author and social context by Rosenblatt, this paper highlights that the husband is a merciless creature toward his wife, relatives and the bull. As anger is due to male stereotypical authoritative nature, it causes jealousy and the end of his life. Ironically, he blames the destructive influence of his wife instead blaming his own negative approach.

The Xi Jinping's new era has new value requirements. The "Standardization
Law" born in 1988 must be adapted to a new era. The value enhancement of the
"Standardization Law" is based on value enhancement of the standard. The
"Standardization Law" aims to increase its own value by confirming the value
enhancement of the standard. The value enhancement of the standard is mainly
reflected by self-systematic, voluntary and application. The value enhancement of the
new "Standardization Law" is mainly manifested in better satisfying people's demand
for various products and services, the need for various security, and the need to

The objective of this study is to ascertain the perception of accounting
students on their learning experience as it shapes there future professional and work
life. The study was an exploratory one and used one item open ended questionnaire to
elicit information from the participants. Qualitative research methodology was
employed in order to gain a closer insight on their learning experience of the students
at the university. The data captured were subjected to attentive examination to identify
consistent themes. We also highlight highly unusual or extra-ordinary data. We found
deficient accounting curricula in terms of what is being taught and how it is being
taught. We also found a disconnect between accounting teaching and on the job
practical exposure. Accounting faculty was not at the vanguard of role modeling for the
students. The problem of aging faculty was also highlighted. The study recommends,
among others, a complete overhaul of University accounting curricula with particular
emphasis on the internationalization of curricula. Teaching methodology should
immediately come to terms with modern trends in the field even as supervision of
faculty is given attention to prevent ill- motivated lecturers from exploiting their
students. Our findings have policy and practical implications for NUC and the
management of universities respectively.

Scheduling the final project is a problem that is often faced by a college.
Because there are many criteria that can be used as a reference for preparing the
schedule. In the process of schedule preparation has several requirements are needed,
such us lecturer teaching schedule should not clash with the schedule of final project.
The availability of the chief examiner, timer and rooms for test. Therefore, it need an
optimum and efficient method in determining the criteria on scheduling the final project.
In this optimization process uses the method of genetic algorithm. Genetic Algorithm
(GA) is algorithm that in solving the problem using crossover operator and mutation
operator to obtain the desired cross bits. It aims to get the optimal attribute value in
terms of fitness equation from chromosome. The result of the training show GA can
produce the optimal criteria value of scheduling the final project criteria, so that can be
used by the college as the preparation of the final project schedule.

According to the non-stationary characteristics of wind power, a novel wind
power combined multi-step prediction model based on differential auto regressive
moving average model in variational mode decomposition and time series analysis is
proposed. Firstly, the wind power sequence is subjected to variational mode
decomposition to reduce the non-stationary characteristics of the wind power sequence.
Secondly, the ARIMA model is established for each component. Finally, the component
prediction results are superimposed to obtain the final wind power prediction value. The
experimental results show that the proposed combined prediction model has higher
prediction accuracy.
