Badania nad zabezpieczeniem społecznym przez buddyzm w dynastii Tran
During the period from 8th Century to early decades of the 14th Century, Dai Viet was in the course of prosperous development with reigns of Tran Thai Tong (ruled from 1226-1258), Tran Thanh Tong (1258-1278), Tran Nhan Tong (1278-1293), Tran Anh Tong (1293-1314), Tran Minh Tong (1914-1329), and Trang Hien Ton (1329-1341). We can say that this is time of prosperity and advance of Tran Dynasty. The Tran Kings’ piety upon Buddhism had a great impact on thought and government policies, especially the spirit of equality and humanity. Kings of Tran express a great care on life of the people, try to relieve their toils, reduce their duties, help the poor, and enhance the social security.116 From Tran Du Tong onwards, all was not as before anymore. Research on social security by Buddhism in Tran dynasty can be presented in many aspects, but this article just focuses on clarifying the social security through Buddhism’s care on material and spiritual life of the people.W okresie od VIII wieku do wczesnych dekad XIV wieku - za czasów panowania: Tran Thai Tong (rządził od 1226-1258), Tran Thanh Tong (1258-1278), Tran Nhan Tong (1278-1293), Tran Anh Tong (1293-1314), Tran Minh Tong (1914-1329), i Trang Hien Ton (1329-1341) - Dai Viet był w na drodze rozwoju. Można powiedzieć, że jest to czas prosperity i postępu dynastii Tran. Pobożność królów Tranu wobec buddyzmu miała wielki wpływ na myślenie i politykę rządu, zwłaszcza na ducha równości i człowieczeństwa. Królowie dynastii Tran wyrażają wielką troskę o życie ludzi, starają się ulżyć im w trudach, zmniejszają ich obowiązki, pomagają biednym i zwiększają bezpieczeństwo społeczne. Od czasów Tran Du Tong, wszystko nie było już takie jak dawniej. Badania nad zabezpieczeniem społecznym przez Buddyzm w dynastii Tran można przedstawić w wielu aspektach, niniejszy artykuł koncentruje się jednak tylko na wyjaśnieniu zabezpieczenia społecznego poprzez opiekę Buddyzmu nad materialnym i duchowym życiem ludzi
Monologue, Dialogue, and Tran Vietnam
A manuscript comprised of materials completed by O. W. Wolters before his death.O. W. Wolters was a twentieth-century historian of early Southeast Asia
who began his academic career with the study of early commercial
relations in the Malay world and the maritime empire of Srivijaya, which
dominated the Straits of Malacca and neighboring seas for several
centuries. During the last twenty-five years of his life, he became
interested in the Tran dynasty of Vietnam (1225-1400). From 1976 to 1996,
he published twelve articles about the Tran dynasty. When he died in 2000,
he left a nearly-completed manuscript of a book-length work about that
dynasty, which is herewith made available to the world of readers.
What makes this manuscript particularly interesting is how the author
shaped a work of historical research into what he liked to call a novel.
He became convinced that there was a certain way of thinking and speaking
that was distinctive to educated people in the Tran period, and he
believed that the best way to present this was through conversational
dialogue. He further presents the Tran way of thinking as a critical
perspective on the regimes that followed.
This manuscript also contains self-reflexive meditations on what the
author was endeavoring to achieve and his critique of his success in doing
so. He offers readers a rare glimpse into the craftsmanship of the most
creative and adventurous scholar of early Southeast Asia in his
generation

Morphometric Measurements of Field and Laboratory-Reared Spotted-Wing Drosophila (2017-2018)
The data set contains wing length, wing width, and hind tibia length of laboratory-reared known summer and winter morphs of Drosophila suzukii. Summer morphs were reared on artificial diet at 16:8 (light:dark) and at 25°C. Winter morphs were reared on artificial diet at 12:12 (light:dark) and at 10°C. In addition, we recorded morphometric measurements on field-caught D. suzukii through-out the greater Twin Cities region in Minnesota.Winter and summer morph Drosophila suzukii can be difficult to distinguished based on a color scale. The purpose of this data were to find an alternative, quantitative method for identifying the two morphs using wing and/or hind tibia measurements.Minnesota Invasive Terrestrial Plants and Pests Center (through the the Environment and Natural Resources Trust Fund; mitppc.umn.edu)Tran, Anh K.; Hutchison, W.

Wpływ promieniowania gamma 60Co na witaminę D3 i niektóre sterole występujące w żywności
Gas chromatography was used to investigate the degree of radiolytic decomposition of vitamin Da, 7-dehydrocholesterol, ergosterol, and cholesterol conditioned by different dosages (0.05-5.0 Mrad) and mediums (benzen, 90% ethanol, cod, liver oil, and butter). Radiation outputs during decomposition of the above compounds were calculated. Sensitivity of the analyzed compounds to radiation in fatty mediums and in some organie solvents was compared.Zbadano stopień rozkładu radiolitycznego witaminy D₃, 7-dehydrocholesterolu, cholesterolu i ergosterolu w zależności od dawki promieniowania od 0,05 do 5 Mrad i środowiska (benzen, 90%-wodny roztwór etanolu, tran leczniczy i masło). Badane związki oznaczano zarówno w formie wolnej, jak i eterów TMSI. Radioczułość badanych związków w zależności od środowiska wzrastała w następującej kolejności:
- witamina D₃ : benzen ≤ tran < masło < 90% etanol,
- 7-dehydrocholesterol: tran< benzen< 90% etanol,
- ergosterol: tran < benzen < 90% etanol,
- cholesterol: 90% etanol ≤ benzen< tran< masło.
Radioczułość steroli i witaminy Da dla najniższej dawki sterylizacyjnej (1,0 Mrad) w tym samym środowisku uszeregować można następująco:
w tranie: - 7-dehydrocholesterol <ergosterol< cholesterol< witamina D₃,
w benzenie: cholesterol< 7-dehydrocholesterol < witamina D₃ erogosterol,
w 90% etanolu: cholesterol< witamina D₃< ergosterol< 7-dehydrocholesterol,
Radioliza cholesterolu w roztworze benzenowym i alkoholowo-wodnym przebiega w zasadzie według mechanizmu bezpośredniego a w środowisku tłuszczowym z udziałem produktów radiacyjnego rozkładu tłuszczu. Dla pozostałych steroli środowisko tłuszczowe wykazywało działanie ochronne, a środowisko benzenu, 90% etanolu i masła przyspieszające procesy degradacyjne

Wowor, 11 November 1999, THH9977. Diagnosis. Body length: males 21.0–24.0, females 25.0–29.0; siphon length ca. 0.80–0.95× body length; lorum higher than clypeus; vertex higher than eye, with low conical tubercle; eye width ca. 1.0–1.1× interocular width; space between middle coxae about as wide as space between hind coxae; posterior margin of metasternum truncate, only slightly convex; basal part of fore femur about 1.6× as wide as distal part; hind femur, when folded back parallel to body, slightly surpassing apex of abdomen in males, reaching apex of abdomen in females; paramere tapering along distal third, apical hook evenly curved, tip of hook expanded, ventral margin with a broadly triangular tooth immediately basad of hook (Fig. 1C–E). Remarks. This species is closely related to Ranatra natunaensis by having similar paramere structures. Tran & Polhemus (2012) provided comparative notes for these two species. Our examination of numerous further specimens, as listed above, has revealed differences in the paramere structure within samples from the type locality, Singapore, as well as within some samples from other areas. Such variation of the type specimens (from Singapore and from Bintan and Batam of Indonesia) was not reported in the original description by Tran & Polhemus (2012). In the holotype, the width of the apical hook is slightly greater than the width of the middle part (Fig. 1C). In the “slender form” (Fig. 1E), the middle part and/or the distal constriction before the apical hook is sometimes more slender than that of the holotype, thus the width of the apical hook appears greater than the width of the middle part. The most slender form occurs in samples GYY70 and GYY51 from West Kalimantan, Borneo (Fig. 1E). These samples also exhibit some other differences from the type material of R. rafflesi, such as the space between the middle coxae being very narrow, and the ventral teeth on the fore femur being slightly smaller (so that the width of the femur across the larger tooth is slightly smaller than the maximum width of the femur in the basal half). Several other samples from Kalimantan, as noted in the Material examined section, contain both the most slender form of paramere (like those in samples GYY70 and GYY51), the typical form (same as the holotype), and also intermediate forms (Fig. 1D); however, the shape of the apical hook and the triangular sub-apical tooth of the paramere are consistent among these forms. The distance between the middle coxae is also variable, but always narrower than the distance between the hind coxae. Because these differences occur within localities, we treat them as intra-specific and intrapopulation variations. Distribution. Singapore, Borneo (Sarawak), and Indonesia (Bintan, Batam, and Sumatra) (Tran & Polhemus, 2012; Tran & Poggi, 2019). First records from Kalimantan (Borneo) and Nias Island.Published as part of Tran, A.

Nowe spojrzenie na planowanie architektury mieszkaniowej w afryce subsaharyjskiej
The author shares his reflections on state of art in housing and urban planning, deficiencies, expectations and possibilities in the Sahel region of Africa. He notices, that the housing problem in Africa is one of the challenges, which should be solved in order to recover life dignity of African people and secure their rights to traditional family life in acceptable conditions. The paper describes the studies on the typical dispersed urban structures and the need to foster this type of settlement structure and proposals of introduction of new on light steel frame housing system in the area of Sahel, combining the traditional way of building houses with modern technology. The particularly analysed case, is the housing problem in the Republic of Chad. The author presents the basic discussion on this topic and his architectural proposals. Unfortunately, the gap between the needs and the financial feasibility of housing construction in this area, makes this project already at the starting point extremely difficult to be realized without external subventions.Problem mieszkaniowy w Afryce jest jednym z wyzwań, które należy rozwiązać, aby Afrykanie mogli odzyskać godność życiową i zabezpieczyć swoje prawa do tradycyjnego życia rodzinnego w akceptowalnych warunkach. W artykule opisano badania nad typowymi rozproszonymi strukturami miejskimi i potrzebą wspierania tego typu struktur osadniczych oraz propozycji wprowadzenia nowego systemu konstrukcji domów, opartym na lekkim szkielecie stalowym, łączącym tradycyjny sposób budowania domów z nowoczesną technologią. Przypadkiem szczególnie analizowanym jest problem mieszkaniowy w Republice Czadu. Autor przedstawia podstawową dyskusję na ten temat i swoje propozycje architektoniczne. Niestety luka między potrzebami mieszkaniowymi w Czadzie a finansową wykonalnością budownictwa mieszkaniowego w tym obszarze sprawia, że projekt ten, już w punkcie wyjścia, jest niezwykle trudny do realizacji bez uzyskania zewnętrznych dotacji
