State monopoly on gambling on the example of the organization lotteries by state-owned banks

The article analyzes the model of absolute state monopoly on gambling on the example of the idea of the Government of Ukraine to organize a lottery market by state-owned banks. The object of the study is the process of assessing the risks and economic benefits of involving state-owned banks to the organization and conduct of lotteries. The methodical instruments of the study were general scientific and special research methods (system-structural, formal-logical (dogmatic), economic, comparative, sociological, statistical). The study period is selected from 2014 to 2021. Based on the research conducted by the authors, the inefficiency and high riskiness of the combination of banks and lottery activities, as well as its economic disadvantage for the state, is proved by the authors. The main risk from the combination of these types of activities is that the bank can use the money attracted from the population not for their direct purpose, in particular: to use funds from the banking activity and the needs of the organization of lotteries or payouts, or to use funds of the prize money to goals other than payouts. In addition, the combination of these activities leads to an increase the number of crimes in the banking sector

Foreign experience in bullying prevention in schools

The aim of the article is to conduct a comprehensive study of bullying prevention at schools using foreign experience. The subject of research is the concept of bulling and features of its manifestation in educational institutions. The research methodology includes general scientific and special methods of legal science: method of theoretical analysis and systematization of scientific literature, method of modeling, statistical method, dogmatic method, logical method, method of summarization. Research results. The main causes, consequences of bullying in schools are analyzed and the characteristics of its participants are given. It is determined that bullying can be considered as a social, legal, psychological and pedagogical problem. Practical meaning. It is proved that schools without bullying differ in cohesion and various extracurricular forms of interaction between students. Value / originality. It is stated that the main means of counteracting this negative phenomenon in educational institutions are active public life, an atmosphere of openness, the possibility of collective conflict resolution under the guidance of a caring teacher

(2RS)-3-Hydr­oxy-2-methyl-2-(2-pyrid­yl)imidazolidine-4-one

The title structure, C9H11N3O2, is a racemate. The chiral centre is situated at the N—C—N C atom of the imidazolidine ring. The inter­planar angle between the mean planes of the pyridine and imidazolidine rings is 89.41 (5)°. The methyl group is in a trans position with respect to the pyridine N atom. In the crystal, the mol­ecules are arranged in zigzag layers parallel to the b axis. The mol­ecules within the layers are inter­connected by strong O—H⋯N and weak N—H⋯O hydrogen bonds; the former take place between OH groups and amine N atoms and the latter between the amine N atom and the carbonyl O atom. In addition, C—H⋯O inter­actions are also present

cyclo-Tetra­kis(μ-3-acetyl-4-methyl-1H-pyrazole-5-carboxyl­ato-κ4 N 2,O 3:N 1,O 5)tetra­kis[aqua­copper(II)] tetra­deca­hydrate

The title compound, [Cu4(C7H6N2O3)4(H2O)4]·14H2O, a tetra­nuclear [2 × 2] grid-type complex with S4 symmetry, contains four CuII atoms which are bridged by four pyrazole­carboxyl­ate ligand anions and are additionally bonded to a water molecule. Each CuII atom is coordinated by two O atoms of the carboxyl­ate and acetyl groups, two pyrazole N atoms of doubly deprotonated 3-acetyl-4-methyl-1H-pyrazole-5-carb­oxy­lic acid and one O atom of a water mol­ecule. The geometry at each CuII atom is distorted square-pyramidal, with the two N and two O atoms in the equatorial plane and O atoms in the axial positions. O—H⋯O hydrogen-bonding interactions additionally stabilize the structure. One of the uncoordinated water molecules shows half-occupancy

Anesthetic features in the surgical treatment of idiopathic scoliosis in adolescents.

lobally, there is a noticeable increase in spinal diseases, with scoliosis being one of the most prevalent. Recon- structive spinal surgeries for scoliosis treatment present challenges for effective anesthetic management. Apart from general anesthesia, a combination of general anes- thesia with regional blockade is also employed for dorsal correction in adolescent patients. Despite numerous meta-analyses, there is still no consensus on the impact of regional anesthesia on the outcomes of traumatic spi- nal surgery. As a part of general anesthesia, epidural blockade suppresses the stress-surgical response and pro- vides a substantial blood-saving effect, reducing blood loss by up to 50%. Incorporating epidural anesthesia into general anesthesia enables a swift and predictable recov- ery from anesthesia, thereby improving the safety of the early postoperative period

N-(2-Hydroxy­ethyl)-2-[2-(hydroxy­imino)propanamido]ethanaminium 2-(hydroxy­imino)propanoate

The cation of the title salt, C7H16N3O3 +·C3H4NO3 −, the oxime group is trans with respect to the amide–carbonyl group. The components of the structure are united into a three-dimensional network by an extensive system of O—H⋯O and N—H⋯O hydrogen bonds

Poly[bis­[μ4-N-(2-hydroxy­imino­propion­yl)-N′-(2-oxidoimino­propion­yl)propane-1,3-diaminato]dimethano­lcalciumdicopper(II)]

In the title compound, [CaCu2(C9H13N4O4)2(CH3OH)2]n, the CaII atom lies on an inversion center and is situated in a moderately distorted octa­hedral environment. The CuII atom is in a distorted square-pyramidal geometry, defined by four N atoms belonging to the amide and oxime groups of the triply deprotonated residue of N,N′-bis­(2-hydroxy­imino­propano­yl)propane-1,3-diamine (H4pap) and one oxime O atom from a neighboring Hpap ligand at the apical site, forming a dimeric [Cu2(Hpap)2]2− unit. Each dimeric unit connects four Ca atoms and each Ca atom links four [Cu2(Hpap)2]2− units through Ca—O(amide) bonds, leading to a three-dimensional framework. The crystal structure involves intra- and inter­molecular O—H⋯O hydrogen bonds
