    No full text
    This article analyzes the relationship between philosophy, experience and event in A.N. Whitehead’s thought. From the critics of the concept of object, the author retraces and describes the peculiar “abstract-concrete dialectic”, at the center of the researches concerning the perceptual experience. Furthermore, according to Whitehead’s later works, she demonstrates how the philosophical practice is different from all other kinds of science, although it requires science itself because of the co-implication of object and event, abstraction and recognition

    No full text
    Gesualdo Bufalino first published Il Guerrin Meschino in 1991 in a non-commercial edition. In 1993, after a deep revision, he re-published his work with publisher Bompiani: the novel has a modified plot, and the author decided to insert three new poems in addition to the opening and closing poems, formerly present in 1991’s edition. This paper, in its entirety supported by handwritten material preserved at Fondazione Gesualdo Bufalino (Comiso), is divided in two parts: the first part illustrates the differences between the first and the second edition, the second part provides a critical edition of the five poems

Sechenov First Moscow State Medical University, honorary academician of Russian academy of medical sciences (1988), and an outstanding representative of the Moscow anatomical school of the middle of XX – early XXI century. From the very beginning of his medical training, Mikhail Romanovich got interested in anatomy, especially in angiology and lymphology, and later concentrated on its studying. The author of more than 30 text books and guidelines for schools, universities, and colleges, Mikhail Romanovich was the doctoral and thesis advisor of 51 Ph.D. and approximately 70 MD dissertations. M.R. Sapin made a significant contribution to the development of anatomical education providing the departments with a various range of dry and wet specimens. His stunning and effective work as a tutor was highly appreciated by his students and colleagues, Russian and foreign anatomists. M.R. Sapin was the leader of the Laboratory of Functional Anatomy since 1972, president of the International Association of Morphologists (1992–2006), chairman of the expert commission of Higher Attestation Commission (1959–1994), etc. A man of a great willpower, M.R.

    No full text
    [Extract] The Port of Townsville Limited (PoTL) is upgrading the approach channel as part of their Port Expansion Project. The Channel Upgrade Project (CU Project) is Stage 1 of the long-term plans and involves capital dredging-related activities of the Platypus and Sea channels, and the construction of a reclamation area and temporary offloading facility. The port is situated in the Great Barrier Reef World Heritage Area, outside of the Great Barrier Reef Marine Park, and supports a diverse range of habitats including significant and productive reefs and seagrass meadows that begin in the intertidal zone and extend down to ~15m below mean sea level. As part of their commitment to the environmental health of the port, and to address regulator conditions outlined for the CU Project, a fit-for-purpose seagrass habitat program was developed in 2019; the Channel Upgrade Seagrass Program (CUSP0

    Nadat de Rijn op 20 December 1919 tot even beneden den middelbaren zomerstand 1901-1910 (M.R.) was gedaald vertoonde zich op die rivier een sterke en vrij snelle was, waardoor het water te Keulen tot 6m +M.R. bij het einde van het jaar steeg. In de daarop volgende 11 dagen daalde de waterstand tot 1.5m +M.R. om daarna in 5 dagen weder te rijzen tot den zeer hoogen stand van 7m +M.R. Door een aanvankelijk sterken later flauweren val liep de stand weder terug tot 1.5m +M.R. op 30 Januari. Ook op de Maas vertoonden zich twee dicht op elkaar volgende sterke wassen. Bij den aanvang van den eersten was op 19 december stond het water te Maastricht op ruim 1m +M.R. en steeg het in 6 dagen tot 4.37m +M.R.; in de daaropvolgende 9 dagen bleef de stand steeds hoger dan 4m +M.R. en daalde toen tot ongeveer 2m +M.R. op 10 Januari 1920. De tweede was trad op laatsgenoemde datum in waarbij het water oplied tot 4.94m +M.R. op 15 Januari. Het water daalde daarna dadelijk en was op 29 Januari tot ongeveer 2m +M.R. weggevallen. Bij den tweeden was op Rijn en Maas werden de hoogst bekende waterstanden bij open rivieren overtroffen te Keulen met 7 cm en te Maastricht met 2 cm. De rivieren waren ijsvrij.Hoogwaterversla

    PARTICIPATION DECISIONS, ANGLER WELFARE, AND THE REGIONAL ECONOMIC IMPACT OF SPORTFISHING

    No full text
    We link a stochastic binary choice model of individual decisions to participate in the marine sport fisheries in Cook Inlet, Alaska, with a simulation- based sample enumeration procedure for aggregating estimates of individual angler welfare and a regionally adjusted zip code-level input-output model of regional economic activity. The result is a behaviorally based model for predicting changes in angler welfare and regional economic activity occasioned by changes in the demand for sportfishing that arise from changes in trip costs or the expected number, size, or mix of species caught. The advantages of this approach are that: changes in angler participation are determined by variables that are observable, predictable, or subject to management control; participation reflects declining marginal utility, and substitution and complementary effects across trip attributes; estimates of changes in aggregate angler welfare and changes in regional economic impacts are derived from changes in individual participation probabilities.Resource /Energy Economics and Policy,

    In 2014, Amirbegov Y.M.'s monograph titled "Mechanics of Thinking" or "Ontological Basis of the Subject" was published, which dealt with a philosophical question: the relationship of matter with consciousness and time of our being. But since the monograph duplicated the thesis conceived by the author and did not go beyond the material presented in it, on the advice of the consultant the author of the monograph is preparing its second edition in an expanded version with a new title: " Ontology of Causal Basis of Man", attracting his mentor, the author of "The Theory of Time or Principle of Formation of Matter Forms" Amirbegov M.R., as a co-author of this book, Adhering to the opinion that matter between past and future temporal conti-nuity of eternity is reduced to nothing and in reality there remains only a causeless "Nothing", the authors of this book from a clean sheet, but with baggage of knowledge about objective forms of being and causeless reality with its possibili-ties, build an unparalleled theoretical model of human integrity, answering the question: what does a man, his sensorium, consciousness, his thinking apparatus and thought itself, why and how? The authors submit this book to the judgment of the reader
