Abstract
This article aims to present the symptoms and treatment plan for patients with Type 2 diabetes in undeveloped countries. Type 2 diabetes is a chronic metabolic disorder that affects millions of people worldwide, including those in undeveloped countries. This abstract presents an overview of the common symptoms and a proposed treatment plan for patients with Type 2 diabetes in undeveloped countries. The symptoms of Type 2 diabetes often include increased thirst, frequent urination, unexplained weight loss, and fatigue. In undeveloped countries, limited access to healthcare facilities and resources can pose challenges in diagnosing and managing Type 2 diabetes. Therefore, the proposed treatment plan focuses on affordable and sustainable strategies, such as lifestyle modifications, oral medications, and insulin therapy when necessary. Additionally, community-based education and awareness programs, as well as proper nutrition and exercise, are emphasized as critical components of the treatment plan. The abstract highlights the importance of addressing the unique challenges faced by patients with Type 2 diabetes in undeveloped countries and emphasizes the need for a comprehensive, multidisciplinary approach to managing this chronic condition in resource-limited settings. *

Abstract
The current research focused on the comprehensive effects of Biochar application and how to achieve sustainable increase in the production of agricultural crop production. From previous research, we can see that maltreatment of inorganic fertilizers has become non -sustainable or increasingly not affordable in many areas of agricultural practice around the world due to loss of soil erosion, soil fertility, and increased fertilizer cost. Furthermore, fertilizers which are chemical in nature also polluting soil, water and air and pose many toxic products in living communities. Since the increasing fertilizer cost and urban sprawl, which quickly decrease the agricultural farm and quality of soilj, an alternative method was required to achieve sustainability in agricultural crop production. Biochar is this kind of alternative and well-recognized method by scientists because of its major role in carbon sequestration, decreasing the emissions of greenhouse gases, waste management, renewable sources of energy and a rich source of nutrients as an amendment in soil. Studies in this research demonstrated that Biochar was a reliable and porous solid charcoal-similar material, with rich carbon obtained from the pyrolysis of various organic material e.g., farm and forest and chicken litter. The current critical review summarizes about biochar production through comparison, application and influence on soil physicochemical properties, as well as interaction with the soil microorganisms, the key role in the soil after amendment with mobilizing bacteria, effects in the reduction in greenhouse gases and metal contamination and its positive and negative impacts on plant growth and yield attribute when biochar was operated in the soil. *

Abstract
Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) is a non-invasive medical imaging technique that uses magnetic fields and radio waves to produce detailed images of the internal structure of the body. MRI images have found widespread use in the medical field for the diagnosis and treatment of a variety of conditions. However, the use of MRI images is not limited to medicine alone. In recent years, there has been growing interest in the use of MRI images in the field of computer science. In this article, we will discuss the foundation, process, and application of MRI images in computer science. We will start by discussing the fundamental principles behind MRI imaging and how it is used to produce images of the body. We will also cover the various types of MRI imaging techniques that are used in medical imaging, such as T1, T2, and proton density imaging. Next, we will discuss how MRI images are processed and analyzed in computer science. This will include a discussion of the various image processing techniques that are used to extract meaningful information from MRI images. We will also cover the different types of data analysis techniques that are used to study MRI images, such as statistical analysis, machine learning, and deep learning. We will then move on to the application of MRI images in computer science. One of the main applications of MRI images in computer science is in the field of medical image analysis. MRI images are used to develop computer-aided diagnosis systems, which can help medical professionals to make more accurate and reliable diagnoses. MRI images are also used to develop treatment planning systems, which can help medical professionals to plan and execute more effective treatment strategies. Another application of MRI images in computer science is in the field of neuroscience. MRI images are used to study the structure and function of the brain, and are used to develop models of neural networks and brain activity. These models are used to study various neurological conditions, such as Alzheimer's disease, Parkinson's disease, and epilepsy. Finally, we will discuss some of the challenges and limitations associated with the use of MRI images in computer science. One of the main challenges is the large amount of data that is generated by MRI imaging, which can make processing and analysis difficult and time-consuming. Another challenge is the need for specialized expertise and equipment to perform MRI imaging and analysis. In conclusion, MRI images have found a wide range of applications in the field of computer science. MRI imaging techniques are used to produce detailed images of the body, which are then processed and analyzed using various image processing and data analysis techniques. MRI images are used in the development of computer-aided diagnosis systems and treatment planning systems in medicine, as well as in the study of the brain and neural networks in neuroscience. While there are challenges associated with the use of MRI images in computer science, the potential benefits are significant, and MRI imaging is likely to continue to be an important tool in the field of computer science in the future. *

Abstract
This article presents a qualitative observation and critical review of the prevalence of white supremacy and racism in TESOL (Teaching English to Speakers of Other Languages) classrooms in Florida, USA. The purpose of this study is to shed light on the impact of white supremacy and racism on the educational experiences of non-white students in TESOL classrooms. The study was conducted in a diverse public school district in Florida, which serves a large number of students from various racial and ethnic backgrounds. The data were collected through classroom observations and interviews with students and teachers. The data were analyzed using a thematic analysis approach to identify themes and patterns related to white supremacy and racism in TESOL classrooms. The findings of the study revealed that white supremacy and racism were prevalent in TESOL classrooms in Florida. These practices were often implicit and subtle, manifesting in various ways such as language bias, cultural insensitivity, and stereotyping. White students were often given preferential treatment, and their cultural norms and values were prioritized over those of non-white students. Teachers were also found to have biases towards non-white students, resulting in differential treatment and limited opportunities for academic success. The study highlights the negative impact of white supremacy and racism on the educational experiences of non-white students in TESOL classrooms. These practices contribute to a hostile learning environment and limit the opportunities for non-white students to succeed academically and socially. The study also reveals the need for teachers to receive training and education on issues related to cultural sensitivity and anti-racism, as well as the need for a more diverse and inclusive curriculum that reflects the cultural and linguistic diversity of students. The study concludes with a critical review of the current state of TESOL education in the United States and its failure to address issues related to white supremacy and racism. The study calls for a more comprehensive approach to TESOL education that integrates anti-racism and cultural sensitivity into teacher education and professional development. The study also emphasizes the need for policy changes at the institutional level that promote diversity, equity, and inclusion in TESOL classrooms. In conclusion, this study provides important insights into the prevalence of white supremacy and racism in TESOL classrooms in Florida, USA. The study highlights the negative impact of these practices on the educational experiences of non-white students and calls for a more comprehensive approach to TESOL education that promotes diversity, equity, and inclusion. The study emphasizes the need for teacher education and professional development that addresses issues related to cultural sensitivity and anti-racism, as well as policy changes at the institutional level that promote diversity and inclusivity in TESOL classrooms. *

Abstract
The current research is understanding our mind: how philosophy enables us to perceive the world and master human mind. As we all know, designing a study about the thinking pattern to investigate how minds work while thinking is the mind in conversation with itself. The central model stated that the mind is the core mode of self-interrogation in psychotherapy and psychology built on philosophical precepts. Both Socratic dialogue and stoicism are evident in the principles of Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and Rational Emotive Behavioral Therapy (REBT). CBT and especially REBT instruct people to examine and dispute their beliefs and thus to tolerate unpleasant feelings—shades of Epictetus. The connection is bidirectional: The most perplexed evidence showed that people's psychological positions on philosophical questions in the center of the free-will existence are significantly influenced by their individual temperament and personality rather than cognitive ability. Future research will explore related philosophical questions which remain for human beings to further discover. *

Abstract
Recent years, research on MOF application showed positive tendency in MOF effects on gas storage. However, current researchers conducted a serious investigation and found the previous research had obvious flaws in over-generalization. Several options are available for storing gases effectively, but these mostly require high-pressure tanks and multistage compressors. Such methods are highly expensive for practical uses and there is a need for them to be substituted by simple and less expensive solutions. In an attempt to overcome these issues and to find safer storage methods, several materials, like zeolites or activated porous carbons, have been studied for gas storage. However, MOFs have outperformed most of these traditional materials in terms of gas storage, separation and industrial application. Easy synthetic procedures, high surface area, wide opportunities for functionalization and tunable pore structures make MOFs preferable compared with other porous materials. This article reviews studies of storage applications for important gases like H2, CO2, CH4, CO, NO, hydrocarbons etc. within MOFs, with a brief description of the factors responsible for effective storage. The current researcher hopes that this research result could be reevaluated and reinstated in order to avoid practical losses. *
