Commentary on 'Pregnancy week at delivery and the risk of shoulder dystocia: A population study of 2 014 956 deliveries'
No full textObjectiveTo study whether pregnancy week at delivery is an independent risk factor for shoulder dystocia.DesignPopulation study.SettingMedical Birth Registry of Norway.PopulationAll vaginal deliveries of singleton offspring in cephalic presentation in Norway during 1967 through 2009 (n=2014956).MethodsThe incidence of shoulder dystocia was calculated according to pregnancy week at delivery. The associations of pregnancy week at delivery with shoulder dystocia were estimated as crude and adjusted odds ratios using logistic regression analyses. We repeated the analyses in pregnancies with and without maternal diabetes.Main outcome measuresShoulder dystocia at delivery.ResultsThe overall incidence of shoulder dystocia was 0.73% (n=14820), and the incidence increased by increasing pregnancy week at delivery. Birthweight was strongly associated with shoulder dystocia. After adjustment for birthweight, induction of labour, use of epidural analgesia at delivery, prolonged labour, forceps-assisted and vacuum-assisted delivery, parity, period of delivery and maternal age in multivariable analyses, the adjusted odds ratios for shoulder dystocia were 1.77 (1.42-2.20) for deliveries at 32-35weeks of gestation, and 0.84 (0.79-0.88) at 42-43weeks of gestation, using weeks 40-41 as the reference. In pregnancies affected by diabetes (n=11188), the incidence of shoulder dystocia was 3.95%, and after adjustment for birthweight the adjusted odds ratio for shoulder dystocia was 2.92 (95% CI 1.54-5.52) for deliveries at weeks 32-35 of gestation, and 0.91 (95% CI 0.50-1.66) at 42-43weeks of gestation.ConclusionThe risk of shoulder dystocia was associated with increased birthweight, diabetes, induction of labour, use of epidural analgesia at delivery, prolonged labour, forceps-assisted and vacuum-assisted delivery, parity and period of delivery but not with post-term delivery

Perspektywy rozwoju biotechnologii w Polsce
No full textWażnym czynnikiem rozwoju biotechnologii w Polsce są nowoczesne badania naukowe. Artykuł Perspektywy rozwoju biotechnologii w Polsce zwraca uwagę na to, że wiedza z zakresu nauk biologicznych i medycznych przyczynia się do większej konkurencyjności zarówno ośrodków naukowych i badawczych, jak i przedsiębiorstw. Biotechnologiczne projekty naukowo–badawcze realizowane w Polsce nie tworzą jeszcze podstaw do wytwarzania produktów biotechnologicznych w takim zakresie, by polskie przedsiębiorstwa mogły konkurować na rynku międzynarodowych. Jedną z przyczyn, którą analizuje Autor w artykule, jest niewystarczające inwestowanie w rozwój nauki i wsparcie dla małych i średnich firm w sektorze biotechnologii. MSP są najważniejszym elementem rozwoju tego sektora, ponieważ koncentrują się na tworzeniu i rozwoju nowoczesnych produktów biotechnologicznych. Artykuł został podzielony na dwie części: Szanse rozwoju nowoczesnej gospodarki w Polsce bez biotechnologii oraz Edukacja i projekty B+R. Autor finalizuje rozważania, pokazując pozytywny scenariusz dla rozwoju sektora biotechnologicznego w Polsce.Biotechnology uses biological processes in the development of technology or manufacture of a product. It is forecasted that Polish biotechnology industry will exceed very quickly. The technology and science parks in Poland have invested millions Euros to build new laboratories. Polish market is fuelled by increased R&D funding, central and regional governments initiatives. The article on “Polish perspectives of biotechnology development” identifies significant factors for biotechnology project development. It also indicates the examples of government biotechnology initiatives in the world. The author focuses on the statistical analysis of the research and development projects conducted by Polish scientist in scientific laboratories. His main conclusion is that biotechnology will be very important in developing Poland, Polish universities, research and development organizations.Udostępnienie publikacji Wydawnictwa Uniwersytetu Łódzkiego finansowane w ramach projektu „Doskonałość naukowa kluczem do doskonałości kształcenia”.

The holotype and allotype are deposited in the MZFC. The deposition of the paratypes is indicated by the acronyms or collector. Etymology. This lovely species is named in honor of Ms Jimena Llorente, wife of the second author. Distribution. (Fig. 27) The species is found in the coastal areas of Guerrero and Oaxaca west of the Sierra Madre del Sur on the Pacific slope. Habits and habitat. Va rga s et al. (1991, 1994) described the allotype locality, Río Santiago in Sierra de Atoyac, Guerrero: An area at the base of the mountain between 660 and 700 m, somewhat disturbed by coffee plantations which originally was an evergreen tropical forest with riparian vegetation along the rivers Santiago and Las Delicias. The climate is Aw 2 (w), very humid with annual precipitation more than 1000 mm. The combination of forest and coffee plantations creates partially shaded microhabitats. At 900 m and joining this locality is the Puente de los Lugardo. The locality of Azulillo (Candelaria Loxicha, Oaxaca) belongs to a region known as evergreen and semi-evergreen tropical forest, which also contains disturbed cultivated areas, with riparian vegetation along the Río Candelaria. The altitude is lower, between 370 and 500 m, but with the same climate. M. jimena is on the wing early in the morning between 0800 to 1000 h, and again after 1400 to 1630 h, often in mist or drizzle. They rest on the undersides of large leaves with wings outspread and antennae together. They fly with a mimic unidentified species of Heterocera. The flight is weak and difficult to see in the shade, generally above 3 meters. They fly for periods of 10 seconds before alighting. Biology. Unknown. Diagnosis. Hall and Lamas (2007) include the southern Mexican populations of Mesene jimena sp. nov., as conspecific with a polymorphic Mesene margaretta. Maza (1987), Vargas et al. (1991, 1994) and Luis et al. (2004) also were confused by this species (v. gr. Chimastrum margaretta, Mesene oriens ssp., Mesene margaretta ssp.).We contend, however, that Mesene jimena sp. nov. is a valid species, despite morphological similarities in the genitalia and the existence in both of 4 dorsal abdominal androconial scale pads. We recognize four classes of criteria that can elucidate the question of the species status of Mesene jimena sp. nov. as well as allopatric populations generally. These are morphology, temporal/spatial barriers, biogeographical factors and ecological differentiation. Each of these will be examined in turn with respect to the species status of Mesene jimena sp. nov. Morphology. Mesene jimena sp. nov. can be easily separated from M. margaretta by the following: The dorsal wing surface of both sexes is uniform light orange-yellow instead of red and with no elongated pointed black lines extending from the apex along the veins, separated (or not) by white scaling 1. The red flush in the discal area of the hind wing (Figs 5, 9, 11) typical of M. margaretta males is lacking. Although both sexes of Mesene jimena sp. nov. have black lines between the veins on the ventral surface, they are much shorter than the same markings in M. margaretta. In Mesene jimena sp. nov., the inner margin of the male ventral forewing is lighter ground color, lacking the black bar (Figs. 6, 10, 12) typical of M. margaretta. The black markings between the segments of the ventral abdomen, a prominent character of M. margaretta, are quite variable in Mesene jimena sp. nov., ranging from total absence (Fig. 4), to vestigial (Fig. 2). The genitalia of the two phenotypes are practically identical, but, discounting individual variation, there are small but consistent differences among the material examined (4 males and 4 females of each species). In Mesene jimena sp. nov. the anteroventrad lobes of the tegument are more rounded, not elongated as in M. margaretta (Figs. 16, 19, 20). In a lateral view, the vinculum of Mesene jimena sp. nov. is more strongly “S” shaped and bowed more sharply closer to the saccus. (Fig. 16) In M margaretta, it is straighter or more uniformly curved (Figs. 19, 20). In the female genitalia, the signa of M. margaretta are more uniform in size and larger (Fig. 26); the dorsal plate in M. margaretta is larger, with a more pronounced cleavage between the plates (Fig. 25), and the horseshoe shaped structure less sclerotized and more separated from the ventral plate (Fig. 24). Space and time. Spatial and temporal barriers relating to perching behavior have been discussed for Neotropical riodinid butterflies (Callaghan, 1983; Hall 1999; Hall and Harvey, 2002 b). In this case it is shown that closely related congeneric riodinid butterflies often perch at different times and microhabitats (Callaghan, 1983). If two populations are characterized by perching in different times and localities, presumably this would be an effective potential isolating mechanism, thus reducing their interbreeding potential. This is true in the case of Mesene jimena sp. nov. and M. margaretta. Mesene jimena sp. nov. is active during the early morning and late afternoon, and under inclement weather conditions, whereas M. margaretta males perch in treefalls and along trails in the early afternoon in sunflecks. DeVries (1993) reports activity between 0900 and 1100 h in Costa Rica. In Colombia one of us (CJC) has observed males perching between 1100 and 1400 h. In Mexico, they fly from 900 to 1700 h, peaking around 1200 – 1430 h (Llorente and Luis-Martinez, pers. obs.). Biogeography. Another indication of species status would be a distribution range corresponding to an area of high endemism among butterflies, as well as other organisms. It has been suggested that there is a high correlation between riodinid species and recognized regions of endemism, particularly in the Amazon (Hall and Harvey, 2002 a). The Pacific region of Mexico shows the greatest amount of endemism in the country (paleo and neo-endemism). The northern limits of the distribution of the Neotropical fauna confronted with strong barriers on the Mexican Pacific slope favor speciation. In the diverse tropical and mesophylic mountain forests of this region endemic 1. The variation on the extent of the black and white apical markings on M. margaretta appears to be within populations and not between them. In the northern coastal range of Venezuela (Cordillera de la Costa) in the Provinces of Aragua and Carabobo, both phenotypes shown in Figs. 9–14 fly together in the same habitat, from 200 to 1550 m. (Juan C de Sousa, pers. com.). Similar differences are found in populations at Cali, Valle del Cauca and Villavicencio, Meta, in Colombia.(CJC, pers. obs.). In El Salvador, the M. margaretta population shows a considerable reduction of the black forewing markings; however there are also individuals with normal markings. In Mexico and Guatemala, the M. margaretta populations (Figs. 5 – 8) show no significant variation. subfamilies, genera, species and subspecies are found that characterize the distinct provinces which drain into the Pacific. These provinces are South Sonora, Mexican Pacific Coast, South Sierra Madre Occidental, the West of Transmexican Volcanic Belt, Balsas Basin, and Sierra Madre del Sur (Morrone et al., 1999, 2002; Espinosa et al. 2000, 2008). Morrone (2001: 40 – 42) includes the area where Mesene jimena sp. nov. is found in the biotic province called “Provincia de la Costa Pacífica Mexicana”, and he mentions numerous endemics found there. The 40 characteristic taxa that Morrone enumerates for the Provincia de la Costa Pacífica Mexicana include taxa from the south of Sinaloa y Michoacán, as well as from dry areas like the “islas húmedas”, and two from humid areas where Mesene jimena sp. nov. is found. Previously, Llorente (1984) had delimited an area of endemism as a sub-region of this province, considering only Oaxaca and Guerrero on the Mexican Pacific Coast between the isthmus of Tehuantepec, a very dry region serving as a barrier between Oaxaca and Chiapas, and the dry Balsas basin on the coast to the northwest. (Fig. 27). To the north, the area is separated by the heights of the Sierra Madre del Sur of over 2000m. This area of endemism is closely related with the Province of the Sierra Madre del Sur, but the limits between both are forests between 1000 and 2000 m that include holm oak forests and cloud forests of mid elevation, as characterized in Llorente and Escalante (1992). These two barriers also limit many other species of Papilionoidea. For Riodinidae, this region supports endemism on the level of genus and species. Examples are Lamphiotes velazquezi, (Beutelspacher, 1976), Callaghan, 1982; Calephelis acapulcoensis, McAlpine, 1971, Exoplisia azuleja, Callaghan, Llorente & Luis, 2007, and Theope villai. Beutelspacher, 1981. (Beutelspacher 1976, Llorente-Bousquets 1988, Llorente-Bousquets & Escalante 1992, Llorente-Bousquets & Luis-Martínez 1992, Llorente-Bousquets et al. 1992, 1993, 2006, Vargas et al. 1996, Luis-Martínez et al. 1996, 2003, Austin et al. 2007, Callaghan et al. 2007). In contrast, Mesene margaretta ranges from eastern Ecuador (Hall and Lamas, 2007); Colombia on both slopes of the Andes, the northern Andes of Venezuela, then north through Central America to Mexico (CJC). The two species, M. margaretta and Mesene jimena sp. nov. are allopatric in Mexico, and specimens examined show no signs of interbreeding, nor has a blend zone been discovered despite intensive collecting. Mesene margaretta is found from Chiapas to San Luis Potosí on the Atlantic slope. (Fig. 27) Records from Mexico are shown below from a number of museum collections. Data with the locality of Candelaria, Oaxaca is in error. The material was gathered from local collectors by Edward Welling, a butterfly dealer, and probably represents other localities. Extensive collecting in the Pacific slope in Oaxaca by the junior authors over the last 30 years has failed to record Mesene margaretta from this area. Mexican specimens of M margaretta examined. A total of 240 specimens. MEXICO. SAN LUIS POTOSÍ: La Mera Ceiba, Tamazunchale 23 Jan.

Ecology. Mesene jimena sp. nov. is confined to evergreen and semi-evergreen humid forest of Guerrero and Oaxaca Pacific slope below 700 m. It appears this species is associated only with this vegetation and high humidity. Conversely, M. margaretta in Mexico inhabits dry seasonal forest and cloud forest from 400 to 1350 m. In accordance with Llorente (1984, 1996) and Llorente and Escalante (1992) the differentiation of species and subspecies levels in the Mexican Pacific depends on their range of habitat. When they are closely tied to a limited altitudinal range and habitat, their isolation is more complete and the possibilities of divergence to the species level are greater. Conversely, if their distribution is wide and unlimited by climatic and altitudinal barriers, their differentiation between populations is less, as in the case of Pereute charops sspp., Dismorphia amphiona sspp., Rhetus arcius sspp. and M. margaretta, all of which have greater altitudinal and climatic distribution than Mesene jimena sp. nov. The following table summarizes the differences between the two taxa. The extent to which the aforementioned criteria will apply to other groups must be tested in practice, with supportive
Pheles caatingensis Callaghan & Nobre, new species
No full textPheles caatingensis Callaghan & Nobre, new species Diagnosis. Pheles caatingensis sp. nov. belongs to the tribe Riodinini Grote 1865 as indicated by a deeply notched posterior section of the tegumen (Fig. 9), and a pedicel forming a posterior tube-like projection not attached to the valvae of the male genitalia (Harvey 1985). Superficially, the new species is closest to the genus Pheles Herrich- Schaeffer [1863], particularly with the species Pheles strigosa, (Staudinger, 1876) and Pheles atricolor (Butler, 1871) sharing the orange scaling on the collar, orange palpae with a short third section, orange scaling on the abdomen around the genitalia, and wing shape and black coloring with a white apical spot on the forewing and with blue streaks between the veins. However, the genitalia of both sexes of P. caatingensis sp. nov. are different from those of Pheles; the male genitalia lack the scobinate patch, or vogelkopf on the end of the pedicel, and have instead a fork serving as a guide for the aedeagus. The aedeagus is modified with a long, curved point on the end. The female genitalia have a highly modified ostium bursae with an evaginated sinus vaginalis and a large, notched medial lamella postvaginalis, all characters not found in Pheles. The antennae are clubbed, and the shaft is without heavy scaling found in Pheles. However, because of the superficial similarities, P. caatingensis sp. nov. is provisionally left in the genus Pheles until its proper generic placement can be ascertained. Description.

Paratypes are deposited in the Museu do CEMAFAUNA-Caatinga, Univasf, Petrolina, and the Coleção Entomológica Pe. J. S. Moure, UFPR (DZUP), and the collection of C. Callaghan, Bogotá, Colombia. Etymology. The species is named after the biogeographic Caatinga Province in which it is found. Biology. The type locality of Pheles caatingensis sp. nov. is situated in the Brazilian Northeastern semiarid domain, in the municipality of Brejo Santo, Ceará state (altitude of 380 meters (7 o 35 ’ 12.67 ’’ S, 38 o 52 ’08.08’’ W; Fig. 23). The average annual rainfall is around 930 mm concentrated between January and April (FUNCEME 2013). The habitat is a narrow gallery forest with trees up to 15 meters high on the margins of the Riacho dos Porcos, a permanent stream sustained by the Açude Atalho dam upstream (Fig. 14). In many spots, crops and pasture replace the native gallery forest as it winds through the surrounding shrub-dense, deciduous Caatinga vegetation. Tree species that occur in this habitat include: Pterogyne nitens Tul., Lonchocarpus sericeus (Poir.) Kunth ex DC., Geoffroea spinosa Jacq., Enterolobium contortisiquum (Vell.) Morong, and Ziziphus joazeiro Mart. (Fabaceae); Sideroxylum obtusifolium (Roem. & Schult.) T.D.Penn (Sapotaceae) and Sapindus saponaria L. (Rhamnaceae); Lianas are abundant, especially in the rainy season, including Serjania glabrata Kunnth (Sapindaceae), and some Araceae (Figs. 12,13,14). In addition to human activities, the gallery forest habitat is threatened by Cryptostegia grandiflora R. Br. (Apocynaceae) an exotic Southeast Asian plant, which occurs throughout the margins of Riacho dos Porcos, and in some spots has replaced the local vegetation (Fig. 15). Due to its known aggressiveness (Grice 1997; Silva & Cavalcante 2009), monitoring this species is important to prevent further damage to the already compromised local gallery forest, in addition to its effects on the biology of Pheles caatingensis sp. nov. The vines and foliage of this plant cut sunlight from the forest floor, limiting the presence of understory vegetation (Fig. 16). This has an impact on the habitat of Pheles caatingensis sp. nov., for in areas where the plant was common, the butterfly was notably infrequent. Pheles caatingensis sp. nov. individuals concentrate in the shade of large trees, resting on the lower surface of the leaves with wings spread and antennae together (Figs. 5,6). On April 25, 2013, after sunset, numerous individuals possibly displaying leck courtship behavior were seen flying rapidly, in short circular patterns around two Geoffroea spinosa trees (Fig. 12). No adults were observed feeding on flowers, although one individual was observed on the wet soil on the river margin (Fig. 11). From the start of the rainy season in December, 2012 to April 2013, the population had increased from about 30 individuals to hundreds, mostly concentrated in an area of gallery forest about 45.000 m ², although individuals were recorded all along the Riacho dos Porcos. However, the population falls during the dry season from June to December. At the same location, there is a large population of Melanis aegates (Hewitson 1874), (Figs.17,18) with individuals displaying similar color pattern and behavior to Pheles caatingensis sp. nov. including leck behavior at sundown, as noted for other Melanis species (Callaghan 2003). M. aegates is also recorded in a similar habitat 300 kilometers northwards in the Ceará State (4 o 33 ’ 40.18 ’’S; 39 o 45 ’ 44.70 ’’W, 470m) according to specimens in the Universidade Federal da Paraíba (UFPB) entomological collection but no Pheles caatingensis sp. nov. were seen at this locality (C. E. Nobre, pers. obs.). There is a possible mimicry ring in the area with other insects converging on the black and white wing pattern and yellow/orange scaling on the head and abdomen. In addition to Melanis aegates, the pattern is shared with Acraephia perspicillata (Fabricius 1781), (Hemiptera: Fulgoridae) (Fig. 19); Melanchroia chephise (Stoll, 1782) (Fig. 20), Melanchroia aterea (Stoll, 1781) (Lepidoptera: Geometridae)(Fig. 21); and Hyperalonia morio erythrocephala (Fabricius, 1805) (Diptera: Bombyliidae) (Fig. 22). These last three, however, are found only in adjacent sunny areas. The black and white wing pattern with blue veins and red/orange head coloring is common throughout the Amazon basin, both in day flying moths, particularly Geometridae, and butterflies of the family Riodinidae. Among the latter are species of Pheles, as mentioned above, and the genus Esthemopsis of the tribe Symmachiini. Among the species of Esthemopsis sharing these patterns are E. alicia (H.W. Bates, 1865), E. pherephatte caeruleata (Godman and Salvin, 1878) and E. teras (Stichel, 1910). This mimicry complex is particularly common in the western Amazon, from eastern Colombia to northern Bolivia (Callaghan, unpublished data). Distribution. (Fig 23) The species appears to be rare and local but widespread. A few individuals were located elsewhere along the Riacho dos Porcos, but not in the same numbers as at the type locality. In June, 2013 an additional colony was located in Cabrobó municipality Pernambuco state (8 19 ' 39.95 '' S, 39 20 ' 23.38 '' W) in a sparse forest consisting mainly of algaroba, (Prosopis julifolia,) along a nearly dry stream bed. There are also specimens in the Coleção Entomológica Pe. J. S. Moure, UFPR (DZUP) from northern Bahia State (Juazeiro, 300m). These findings suggest that Pheles caatingensis sp. nov. is widespread in the Caatinga in other similar humid habitats well into the dry season.Published as part of Callaghan, Curtis J. & Nobre, Carlos Eduardo Beserra, 2014, A new species of Pheles Herrich – Schaeffer from Northeast Brazil (Lepidoptera, Riodinidae), pp. 558-566 in Zootaxa 3780 (3) on pages 559-564, DOI: 10.11646/zootaxa.3780.3.7, http://zenodo.org/record/22830
Childhood of the poorest social strata in Gdańsk in the mid-nineteenth-century in light of Memories from the youth of a poor womanservant
No full textArtykuł traktuje o dzieciństwie najuboższych warstw społecznych w Gdańsku w latach pięćdziesiątych i sześćdziesiątych XIX wieku na przykładzie wspomnień anonimowej autorki niemieckiej, piszącej pod pseudonimem Marie Sansgêne. W części wprowadzającej zostały przedstawione informacje o źródle i jego autorce. Ponadto przybliżono warunki przeżywania dzieciństwa w XIX-wiecznym Gdańsku. W zasadniczej części artykułu ukazano natomiast problematykę dzieciństwa w narracji M. Sansgêne. W tym celu wyróżniono kilka zasadniczych obszarów, takich jak: zakres i charakter opiekuńczo-wychowawczych oddziaływań rodziców wobec dziecka; kształtowanie nawyków związanych z czystością i utrzymaniem porządku; przymus w życiu dziecka; współudział i współodpowiedzialność dziecka w tworzeniu domowego budżetu; realizacja obowiązku szkolnego; zabawy i czas wolny w życiu dziecka.The article is about the childhood of the poorest social strata in Gdańsk in the 1850s and 1860s based on the example of the memoirs of an anonymous German author, writing under the pseudonym Marie Sansgêne. The introductory part presents information about the source itself and its author. Moreover, the conditions of experiencing childhood in nineteenth-century Gdańsk were presented. The main part of the article presents the issues of childhood in the narrative of M. Sansgêne. To this goal, several basic areas have been distinguished, such as: the scope and nature of parental and educational influences towards a child; shaping habits related to cleanliness and keeping order; coercion in a child’s life; participation and responsibility of the child in creating the home budget; fulfilment of compulsory education; fun and free time in a child’s life.Uniwersytet Gdański17719

Dziecko w historii - między godnością a zniewoleniem. Tom 1. Godność jako fundament praw człowieka
No full textOddajemy kolejną książkę poświęconą Dziecku w historii – między godnością a zniewoleniem, będącą pokłosiem międzynarodowej konferencji naukowej, w trakcie której dyskutowano o godności i zniewoleniu dziecka. Pierwszy tom opisujący dzieje dziecka został zatytułowany Dziecko w historii – wątek korczakowski. Kolejny był związany z jubileuszem 1050. rocznicy Chrztu Polski i ukazał się pod tytułem Dziecko w historii – w kręgu kultury chrześcijańskiej. Celem trzeciego było upamiętnienie 100. rocznicy odzyskania przez Polskę niepodległości, jego tytuł Dziecko w historii - sytuacja dziecka w odrodzonym państwie polskim. Obecna monografia Dziecko w historii jest powiązana z jubileuszem 40-lecia istnienia Katedry/Zakładu Historii Wychowania Wydziału Nauk o Edukacji Uniwersytetu w Białymstoku. Akcentując wątek jubileuszowy Katedry Historii Wychowania zaprosiliśmy też ekspertów różnych dyscyplin naukowych do kolejnej dysputy akademickiej, tym razem poświęconej godności osobowej, osobowościowej i osobistej dziecka w sytuacji zniewolenia, utraty wolności, swobody – całkowitej zależności od innych. Głównym celem książki Dziecko w historii – między godnością a zniewoleniem jest próba odpowiedzi na pytania: Jakie były i są źródła praw człowieka? Czy godność jednostki była i jest nadal wartością? Jakie w przeszłości były i są współcześnie przyczyny zniewolenia jednostki? Dlaczego dochodzi do ograniczania wolności człowieka i tłamszenia jego godności? Poszukiwanie odpowiedzi na sformułowane pytania jest o tyle ważne, że godność człowieka w naszej kulturze stanowi fundament przyjmowanej powszechnie koncepcji człowieka. Tymczasem we współczesnym świecie, zdeterminowanym głównie przez czynniki polityczne i gospodarcze oparte na modelu neoliberalnego kapitalizmu, następuje pogłębianie różnic społeczno-ekonomicznych prowadzących do poszerzania przestrzeni i grup wykluczenia oraz relatywizacji i dewaluacji samej idei poszanowania godności ludzkiej. Lista zagadnień, które stały się przedmiotem analizy jest szeroka, nie zamyka się w ciasnych ramach subdyscyplin pedagogicznych, a ich przekaz ma wymiar interdyscyplinarny, wieloaspektowy i międzynarodowy. Autorami poszczególnych rozdziałów monografii są eksperci różnych dyscyplin naukowych: filozofii i teologii, pedagogiki, historii, prawa i socjologii z Polski i z różnych ośrodków zagranicznych: Albanii, Anglii, i Włoch. Układ książki jest chronologiczno – problemowy. Ze względu na objętość i wielość zgłoszonych rozpraw prezentujemy je w dwóch odrębnych tomach składających się z dwóch części zatytułowanych: Część I - Katedra Historii Wychowania i jej inicjatywy promujące godność człowieka, Część II -Między godnością a zniewoleniem. Część pierwsza obejmuje dwa rozdziały. W rozdziale pierwszym zaprezentowano dzieje powołania Zakładu Historii Wychowania i jego twórcę, prezentacji rozwoju i dokonań białostockiej szkoły historii wychowania oraz nowe kierunki i perspektywy badań. W rozdziale drugim autorzy zaakcentowali wątek jubileuszu 40-lecia Katedry/Zakładu Historii Wychowania. Część druga została podzielona na cztery rozdziały. Pierwszy z nich obejmuje naukowe rozważania nad zdefiniowaniem godności w pedagogice personalistycznej, działalności wychowawczej. Autorzy wskazują na potrzebę wykreowania ideologii negocjacji i równoważenia dialogu wewnętrznego i zewnętrznego, dowodzą, że zmieniające się uwarunkowania społeczno – kulturowe życia nie mogą wymusić zmiany w interpretacji godności dziecka. Poddają analizie ochronę praw dziecka w prawie międzynarodowym i regulacjach krajowych oraz wskazują na przejawy zniewolenia, które stanowią zagrożenie dla wolności, a tym samym godności osobowej, godności osobowościowej, jak i godności osobistej człowieka na różnych etapach jego rozwoju. Autorzy artykułów rozdziału drugiego podjęli rozważania nad lepszym zrozumieniem dzieciństwa i sytuacji dzieci z różnych warstw społecznych, o różnych potrzebach edukacyjnych i doświadczeniach. Ukazali jak w sposób praktyczny wprowadzano inicjatywy skierowane do dzieci. W trzecim rozdziale autorzy przedstawili ideę budowania autonomii uczniowskiej z perspektywy edukacji wczesnoszkolnej, ukazali genezę i założenia prawa do edukacji w kontekście Konwencji o Prawach Dziecka. Podjęli refleksję nad godnościowym wymiarem edukacji międzykulturowej w świetle regulacji prawa międzynarodowego, europejskiego i polskiego, kwestie dotyczące znaczenia pielęgnowania pokoju w edukacji poprzez nauczanie praw człowieka uczniów szkół średnich oraz tworzenie wzorów osobowych. Czwarty rozdział prezentuje artykuły młodych adeptów nauki poświęcone obronie godności i praw dziecka, kierunków postępowania w zakresie ochrony, pomocy i wsparcia z perspektywy regulacji prawnych, wskazań medycznych i wychowawczych. Mamy nadzieję, że książka spotka się z szerokim zainteresowaniem ekspertów nauk społecznych i humanistycznych, a także władz oświatowych i nauczycieli oraz rodziców bowiem w polskiej historiografii wciąż odczuwa się niedosyt prac badawczych związanych z dzieckiem i jego dziejami na przestrzeni wieków.We present another book devoted to the Child in history - between dignity and enslavement, which was the aftermath of an international scientific conference, during which the dignity and enslavement of the child was discussed. The first volume describing the history of the child is entitled Child in history - korczakowski's plot. The next one was related to the 1050th anniversary of the Baptism of Poland and appeared under the title Child in history - in the circle of Christian culture. The purpose of the third one was to commemorate the 100th anniversary of Poland regaining independence, its title Child in history - the situation of a child in the reborn Polish state. The current monograph Child in history is related to the 40th anniversary of the Chair / Department of History of Education at the Faculty of Educational Sciences at the University of Bialystok. Emphasizing the jubilee theme of the Department of the History of Education, we also invited experts from various scientific disciplines to another academic debate, this time devoted to the personality and personal dignity of a child in a situation of enslavement, loss of freedom, liberty - complete dependence on others. The main goal of the book A child in history - between dignity and enslavement is an attempt to answer the following questions: What were and are the sources of human rights? Has the dignity of the individual been and still is a value? What were and are the reasons for the enslavement of an individual in the past and what are they today? Why are human freedom limited and dignity suppressed?The search for answers to the formulated questions is important because human dignity in our culture is the foundation of the commonly accepted human concept. Meanwhile, in the contemporary world, determined mainly by political and economic factors based on the model of neoliberal capitalism, there is an increase in socio-economic differences leading to the expansion of the space and groups of exclusion, as well as relativization and devaluation of the very idea of respecting human dignity. The list of issues that have become the subject of analysis is wide, not limited to the narrow framework of pedagogical sub-disciplines, and their message has an interdisciplinary, multifaceted, and international dimension. The authors of the individual chapters of the monograph are experts from various scientific disciplines: philosophy and theology, pedagogy, history, law, and sociology from Poland and from foreign centers: Albania, England, and Italy. The layout of the book is chronological and problematic. Due to the volume and multiplicity of the dissertations submitted, we present them in two separate volumes consisting of two parts entitled: Part I - Department of the History of Upbringing and its initiatives promoting human dignity, Part II - Between dignity and enslavement. The first part consists of two chapters. The first chapter presents the history of the establishment of the Department of the History of Education and its founder, the presentation of the development and achievements of the Bialystok School of the History of Education, as well as new directions and perspectives for research. In the second chapter, the authors emphasized the 40th anniversary of the Chair / Department of the History of Education. The second part is divided into four chapters. The first one includes scientific considerations on the definition of dignity in personalistic pedagogy and educational activity. The authors point to the need to create an ideology of negotiation and to balance internal and external dialogue, they argue that the changing social and cultural conditions of life cannot force a change in the interpretation of the dignity of a child. They analyze the protection of children's rights in international law and national regulations and point to the manifestations of slavery that pose a threat to freedom, and thus to personality dignity, and personal dignity at various stages of human development. The authors of the second chapter articles considered a better understanding of childhood and the situation of children from different social strata, with different educational needs and experiences. They showed how initiatives aimed at children were implemented in a practical way. In the third chapter, the authors presented the idea of building student autonomy from the perspective of early childhood education, showed the genesis and assumptions of the right to education in the context of the Convention on the Rights of the Child. They reflect on the dignity dimension of intercultural education in the light of international, European, and Polish law, issues related to the importance of nurturing peace in education by teaching human rights to high school students and creating role models. The fourth chapter presents articles by young science students devoted to defending the dignity and rights of children, directions of conduct in the field of protection, assistance, and support from the perspective of legal regulations, medical and educational indications. We hope that the book will meet with wide interest of experts in social sciences and humanities, as well as educational authorities, teachers, and parents, because in Polish historiography there is still a lack of research work related to the child and its history over the centuries.Wydanie publikacji sfinansowano ze środków Wydziału Nauk o Edukacji Uniwersytetu w Biał[email protected] w BiałymstokuArchiwum Państwowe w Łodzi, Zespół: Akta miasta Łodzi, Wydział Opieki Społecznej, sygn. 18214: Sprawozdania z działalności instytucji otwartych i półotwartych korzystających z subsydiów 1929.Archiwum Państwowe w Łodzi, Zespół: Akta miasta Łodzi, Wydział Opieki Społecznej, sygn. 18219: Subwencje dla instytucji opiekuńczych 1935.Archiwum Państwowe w Łodzi, Zespół: Akta miasta Łodzi, Wydział Opieki Społecznej, sygn. 18231: Subsydia instytucjom otwartym i półotwartym 1927–1928.Archiwum Państwowe w Łodzi, Zespół: Akta miasta Łodzi, Wydział Opieki Społecznej, sygn. 18242: Sprawy ogólne.

Simulation of thermal plant optimization and hydraulic aspects of thermal distribution loops for large campuses
No full textFollowing an introduction, the author describes Texas A&M University and its utilities system. After that, the author presents how to construct simulation models for chilled water and heating hot water distribution systems. The simulation model was used in a $2.3 million Ross Street chilled water pipe replacement project at Texas A&M University. A second project conducted at the University of Texas at San Antonio was used as an example to demonstrate how to identify and design an optimal distribution system by using a simulation model. The author found that the minor losses of these closed loop thermal distribution systems are significantly higher than potable water distribution systems. In the second part of the report, the author presents the latest development of software called the Plant Optimization Program, which can simulate cogeneration plant operation, estimate its operation cost and provide optimized operation suggestions. The author also developed detailed simulation models for a gas turbine and heat recovery steam generator and identified significant potential savings. Finally, the author also used a steam turbine as an example to present a multi-regression method on constructing simulation models by using basic statistics and optimization algorithms. This report presents a survey of the author??s working experience at the Energy Systems Laboratory (ESL) at Texas A&M University during the period of January 2002 through March 2004. The purpose of the above work was to allow the author to become familiar with the practice of engineering. The result is that the author knows how to complete a project from start to finish and understands how both technical and nontechnical aspects of a project need to be considered in order to ensure a quality deliverable and bring a project to successful completion. This report concludes that the objectives of the internship were successfully accomplished and that the requirements for the degree of Degree of Engineering have been satisfied
