The use of waste as an additional material on the building work was increasingly actively developed, such as straw, styrofoam, bagasse, cow manure. The key drivers of the use of waste is the potential for waste is increasing, due to the depletion of non-renewable resources. Papyrus rod diameter 60 cm, length 30 meters, has a volume of 5,652m3 as well as the edges of the Rods that can be used for construction with a thickness of 3 cm has a volume 0,942m3, Pith and fiber volume content of the stem 4,71m3/rod, then in one rod, there are 2 to 3 bunches each fruit bunches yield as much as 20 to 30 items for one harvest, by weight of fruit fiber 101.2 gram / fruit, Fiber characteristics are round and smooth is expected to reduce cracks in solid concrete brick and also can reduce the use of sand. This study aims to determine the compressive strength of the composition of the additional material of Rods fiber content and Fiber of palmyra fruit with a percentage 3%, 6% and 9%, mixing ratio; 1 cement and 5 sand in the manufacture of solid concrete brick. Rods fiber content used the average Ø1,031mm with a tensile strength of single fiber 39,305N / cm and fruit fiber to an average value Ø0,40mm with a tensile strength of single fiber 33,691N / cm. Making test specimen with a length of 20cm, width 10cm and thick 8cm.

Abstract

Energy security is one of the key challenges confronting the nations all around the globe. Diversification of imports in terms ofsources, route, resources and technologies has been an important policy tool to advance energy security further. Geographically locatedin close proximity to fossil fuel rich regions, Turkey has connected itself to producer countries via several pipelines with the aim ofbecoming a transit hub. At the same time, however, Turkey became increasingly dependent to foreign imports, reaching 70 per cent. Asa result, Turkey moved towards nuclear energy and signed a deal with Russia to build its first nuclear power plant. The recent globaladvances in nuclear power generation enhanced the importance of nuclear power in bridging the energy gap in Turkey. Nuclear energyis currently enjoying enormous interest internationally, and particularly in Turkey, due to a combination of factors such as increasing fuelprices, diminishing resources of the fossil fuels, and environmental problems. On the other hand, by signing a deal with Russia, whichalready provides a significant amount of Turkey’s imported energy, creates dangers of over-dependence on its neighbor. Moreover,there is a greater awareness of safety problems related to nuclear power plants after the recent incident in Japan, together withenvironmental concerns related to nuclear waste management, potentially threatening human security. Therefore, this article analysesTurkey’s nuclear energy interests and discusses in detail the advantages and disadvantages of enhancing the role of nuclear power forTurkey’s energy needs.

Abstract

In our society, in our environment and right in front of us are occurring different social, cultural and economical movements,which, considered from professional and scientific point of view, impose a real commitment. In these conditions adults are facing a lot ofchallenges and they return to school to confront these challenges. They want to learn and get the best of this process. But what is thelearning environment condition that is created in classrooms, for adult students? What are the physical conditions in which all thelearning activities take place? The main aim of this paper is to present some of the opinions of the adult students in Korça and ElbasanUniversities that are pursuing their part-time studies, regarding learning environment conditions, where their learning activities takeplace. To analyze the data for this paper are used only the quantitative methods. The sample is adult students that are frequenting parttime study in Korça and Elbasan University. To select the sample from the whole population is used the stage sampling. For gatheringdata are used interviews. The analysis of data has been carried out according to normal statistical methods. In summary, the adultstudents want to learn, but the level of the learning environment condition, which is created in the classrooms, is under the average level.From adult learners’ reports, they emphasise that the institutions should guarantee better accommodation conditions for teaching andlearning activities. Furthermore, lecturers should use more often techniques and methodology that ensure not only engendering thecognitive competences, but also motivate adult students toward learning.

Abstract

The human activity is considered as the main reason for the damage of the lake ecosystem stability. Shkodra Lake isecologically characterized by a high stability. Clean water and high productivity are considered as potential health factors of this Lake.This ecosystem is one of the most preserved wetlands of the Mediterranean. However, the unfavorable global factors and human activityhave a dangerous impact on the ecosystem. The damage of the lake water regime causes oscillations, which lead to disorders for thehabitats and ecosystem, creating concerns to the life of populated areas. Contamination from decomposing organic matter degrades theecosystem in a trophic unrecoverable situation. Destruction of forests around watershed, failure to have anticorrosive measures andwastewater discharges are essential for the growth of solid flows affecting the eutrophism of the lake. Shkodra Lake can’t support thesedifficult situations by itself alone. It leads to water microbial contamination of beaches and increases people's concerns. Awarenessshould be raised to the public, decision making, and the population around it, in order to eliminate these risk factors. Crosscontamination with toxic substances penetrate the food chain of biota and end up accumulated up to the humans, causing life -threatening and deadly diseases. People should be aware and should take measures to eliminate discharges to ensure the standards oflake water and consuming resources. Long-term strategies and policies should be set up for developing the Lake region, with mainobjectives and measures of managing character. Natural ecosystem of Shkodra Lake and the urban ecosystem of Shkodra city willcoexist in a better way if harmony and integration of natural development and human activity will be achieved.

Abstract

In the period of 1999-2007 Russia’s development was characterized by rapid economic recovery, increased welfare ofcitizens, and formation of robust and stable political system. Actually the political competition was minimized at the federal level. Thiswas achieved both by means of forming new institutional framework for the political process and political competition, and through directstruggle of political actors. Visible political competition, political opposition, and political protest disappeared in many of regions of theRussian Federation. The Financial Crisis, which started in 2008, radically changed the economic situation in Russia. As a resultnumerous protests were organized in many towns and regions. Regional opposition political groups used actively the current criticalsituation for the political struggle. It is becoming more difficult for the officials, political parties loyal to the government, and actors of theregional political process to maneuver between the critical socio-economic situation and the necessity of displaying loyalty to federalruling elite.

Abstract

The experiment with the new election system created some anomalies which are reflected to the entire model of democracyAlbania is applying. The election final result resembles more to a majoritarian product than a proportional one. The new election systemalso produced ideologically questionable fragile majority and a very strong opposition in terms of number of mandates in the parliament.Permanent institutional crisis, lack of mutual trust and understanding between the main political parties, dysfunctional parliament, andfailure to reach the candidate status as the next step to EU membership are key indicators of the impacts that the new election systemhad on entire political system. Due to that, there are a lot of initiatives coming from different actors aiming the modification of the actualelection system in order to increase the proportional nature of it. The political discourse in Albania is coming back to the starting pointwhere new modifications of the election system are required in order to minimize the negative impacts of the actual one, without takinginto consideration the country profile. In case there are modifications, the main parties remain the key designers of them, which meantheir immediate interests are fully respected. The question is what is considered a good election system for Albania? As long as thequestion is not correctly addressed the best change political actors can do to the election system is for the first time after twenty yearsnot changing it.

Abstract

In order to establish a concrete basis for the frequently mentioned but superficially investigated ties between Continental andAmerican Expressionist drama, this study endeavors not only to examine the expressionistic elements in native plays but also todetermine the extent to which American playwrights were inspired by the works of Continental-chiefly German-Expressionists. This studyfocuses on the nonrealistic dramaturgy of Georg Kaiser, Walter Hasenclever, and other Continental Expressionists, which inspired manyAmerican playwrights such as Tennessee Williams, Arthur Miller, Elmer Rice, and John Howard Lawson. It shows their attempts to fuserealistic and expressionistic elements into esthetically satisfying dramatic works and how American Expressionism has tended to followmore the examples set by the German Expressionists than that by Strindberg, in whose "dream plays" the author's consciousness reignssupreme. Moreover, most of the American Expressionist plays are tempered with realistic elements in the manner characteristic ofGeorg Kaiser or Ernst Toller.

Abstract

The standard of the profession of psychologist is moving towards a clear objective: the role of psychologists should be put inthe function of upgrading the quality of people’s life in individual and social context. To upgrade the quality of life psychologists have togive directions how to reduce prejudices which have been formed during the new urban and sub urban developments. (Dovidio, 1994).This article will explain why the psychologists are investing big efforts in the methodology related with the identification of the causes ofprejudice. However result of the recent studies underline the fact that psychological instruments often do not always reach to predicthuman behavior. On the other hand before accepting that intergroup prejudices is an integral part of human psyche created by thenorms and cultural values, should carefully examine the effectiveness of institutional norms and values nurtured by psychologicalservices. This psychological "anti-virus" will serve to control the intergroup prejudice. Also, the article emphasizes the role ofpsychological techniques in the reduction of intergroup prejudices.

Abstract

In the world scenario communication have an important role within the globalization. But this cannot be successful unlesseducation. As we know all the people are not able to learn foreigner second languages during a long term process so they need to choosean institute as a replacement for schools or university education in order to learn language as short as he/she can. So it is important to choosethe successful institute but how he can choose the successful institute? By which factor he is able to realize this institute? So I decided tostudy on the interfering factors which affect the learning languages process. According to my last paper" Alarm! Language Learning Instituteor sales room" we suppose some factors including: teacher, facilities, student, manager, space, methods, and learning/teaching strategiesin this study in order to evaluate the effect of these factors in learning language as a whole. According to the results the aim of theexaminers of learning language was obligation (15%), the role of the teachers and her/his methodology (53%), the facility of the institutes andschools/universities were 46% and 0% respectively, 92% of teachers of schools and universities just try to teach grammar and structure alonewithout any new methodology.
