Th is study examines language use among soldiers in the Odogbo army barracks in Ojoo-Ibadan during training and parade activities. A good number of scholars have investigated language use in the armed forces, and many of them adopted diff erent approaches and arrived at diff erent conclusions. However, there is a paucity of scholarship on the shared knowledge that soldiers deploy in their language during training, parades, and other special activities. Th e study adopts a qualitative method since the data involved are descriptive. Th e data used in this study was harvested through participant observations of parade activities by soldiers, as were the audio recordings of army interactions during a parade. Odogbo Army Barracks in Ojoo, Ibadan, was purposefully selected since it was the fi rst barracks in Ibadan and was saddled with the responsibility of coordinating the military activities in southwestern Nigeria. Th e collected data were analysed from sociolinguistic perspective through identifi cation and interpretation in the military context vis-à-vis the interlocutor. Th e paper concluded that soldiers’ language in parade involves an authoritative style obeyed by the parade troop as a result of shared knowledge.

Th is paper studies the unusual character of Ben, who seems not to be adequately understood and is exaggeratedly foregrounded as somebody except a normal human being. In order to reach a more comprehensive picture of Ben, we examine diff erent characters’ mental functioning, narrative lines, points of view, and voices, especially Ben’s, the story’s protagonist, through the lens of narratology and focalization. Furthermore, Ben’s clauses are analyzed in more detail through the technique of free indirect thought (FIT) to learn more about Ben’s mental functioning, his consciousness, and the interactions between him and the world around him. Finally, we show that diff erent narrations portray Ben as having a simple, child-like, animal-like, and deviant mind style or as too passive to alter his situation, but the analysis of his narration shows something diff erent, and it seems that he is not understood adequately by other characters.

At a time of progressive development of public international law, the internal self-determination of peoples has no alternative, but external self-determination is justifi ed in a situation where, as a result of oppression, dispossession, and collective discrimination, a certain people have full rights to freely determine its political, social, economic, and cultural setting. In the case of Kosovo, the right to “remedial secession” based on the right to external self-determination has been achieved. According to many legal scholars, the related right is an exception and could be realized outside the colonial context, in limited circumstances that resemble the colonial paradigm. Modern customary public international law provides a legal basis for the introduction of the concept of the right to “remedial secession” and forms an argument that is supported by the “Great Powers” and is consistent with international institutional practice provided that the people’s fundamental human rights are threatened. Th is article aims to explain through the case of Kosovo that the external form of self-determination, which includes secession, is possible only exceptionally in the case of grave violations of human rights and freedoms, war crimes, repression, and systematic oppression, and that the internal self-determination of the peoples is a more acceptable form of realizing this collective human right, which should be realized through broad constitutional and legal reforms in every multi-ethnic state (a certain degree of autonomy or decentralization).

In this review of the exhibition of the student’s research projects in the master’s class Digital Design Studio of Architectural Program within the International University of Sarajevo, mentor and curators Lamila Simisic Pasic and Meliha Teparic are giving an analysis of the settings, aims, and purpose of the show. Th e exhibition is about an attempt to follow the novelties that the 21st century is bringing into the creation process, such as the involvement of artifi cial intelligence (AI) within creative fi elds. Students started with discovering, analyzing, and classifying the results of visual impacts from their travel from home to school. Th e synthesis came out from a mixture of artifi cial and real. Th en, they merged their physical experiences transformed into visual imagery and digital outputs discovered through the lens of AI into one coherent and intuitive experience. Finally, students used machine learning as a direct collaborator for expanding their imaginations, particularly the diff usion model, which visualizes images out of the text, better known as text-to-image or, its extension, text-to-animation! Using these techniques, students reconstructed their voyages into more visionary landscapes, trying to emphasize, bold, and enlarge dilemmas and concerns of nowadays and refract a multisensory experience to tell the story. Th e exhibition was held in the Art Gallery of the International University of Sarajevo, Bosnia and Herzegovina, at the end of 2022.

Th e study investigated the understanding of the pull factors of drug use among upper basic school students: a pathway to human capital development. Th e study adopted a qualitative form survey design. Th e population for the study were public upper basic schools in three Area of Ilorin metropolis. Th e target population were the upper basic seven, eighth and nine (J.S.S I, II, and III) students that use drugs. A sample size of 9 secondary schools was purposively sampled. Twenty-one basic school students' drug users were sampled through snowballing simple technique. Th e study applied a qualitative method using an open-ended interview approach developed by the researcher. Th e thematic data analysis technique was used to analyze the interview data retrieved from the participants. qualitative computer data analysis soft ware (NVIVO 10) was used to analyze the data. Results revealed Alcohol, cigarettes, caff eine, inhalants, methadone, tramadol, codeine, morphine, cannabis or marijuana, opiates, heroin ‘EJA’, JEDI’, and cocaine among others. Parental easy access, peer infl uence, and experimental curiosity were some of the pull factors, while increased enlightenment, parental role, and limited access to the drug are some of the measures drug users need to quit drugs.

The absence of the skyscraper from the British skyline in the first decades of the twentieth century is notable. This paper contributes to an understanding of some of the reasons for this by analysing how perceptions of what was seen as an essentially “American” form of architecture within British contemporary media, influenced architectural practice in Britain at the time. It will be seen that apathy if not overt hostility met the calls for the skyscraper to be adopted to alleviate some of the pressing urban issues being faced in Britain, resulting in the skyscraper remaining absent from the British urban skyline.
