'Age' of the prosecutrix: An aggravating factor in the punishment of sexual offences
No full textThis article engages with the weightage of ‘age’ of the prosecutrix while punishing the offender by the criminal justice system of India in response to sexual offences. The author(s) demonstrates the need of the hour on the importance of stricter laws based on retributive theory on crimes against minors by analyzing the existing laws in the Indian legal system and impact of such crimes on minor

Effect of application of hydrogel ZEBA SP on sandy soil moisture
No full textAutorzy przedstawili wyniki badań nad zmianami właściwości wodnych ty-powej dla polskich lasów gleby piaszczystej słabogliniastej po zastosowaniu preparatu ZEBA SP. Wyjątkowość tego absorbentu wynika z faktu, że jest otrzymywany ze skrobi kukurydzianej i dlatego może stanowić alternatywę dla hydrożeli dotychczas oferowanych w Polsce.
Przeprowadzono badania laboratoryjne, w których wyznaczono krzywe pF gleb z różną zawartością absorbentu ZEBA SP, a także założono doświadczenia wazonowe określając wpływ różnych stężeń preparatu na zmiany wilgotności gleby i tempo jej wysychania.
Badania wykazały, ze najlepsze efekty daje preparat w stężeniu 0,5%. Taka ilość preparatu: zwiększyła efektywną i potencjalną retencję użyteczną gleb o 17%; wydłużała czas wysychania gleby od stanu maksymalnego do minimalnego uwilgotnienia od 14 do 19 dni w porównaniu z glebą bez absorbentu; zwiększała długość dostępności wody glebowej dla roślin od 9 do 20 dni.The authors present the results of research on the changes of the hydrological
properties of sandy soil after applying the hydrogel ZEBA SP. Uniqueness
of the absorbent is due to the fact that is obtained from maize corn starch and
therefore can be an alternative to the hydrogels offered in Poland.
In the laboratory experience, in which pF curves of the soil were outlined
with the different content of ZEBA SP absorbent was conducted, as well as experience in vases was assumed determining the influence of different concentrations of
preparation on changes of the soil moisture and the pace of the soil drying.
Examinations showed, around preparation is giving the best effects in the
concentration of the 0.5%. Such an amount of preparation: increased the effective
and potential useful retention of the soil by the 17%; extended the time of drying of
the soil from the state maximum to the minimal humidity from 14 up to 19 days in
comparing with the soil without absorbent; increased the availability of the soil
water for plants from 9 up to 20 days
Mapping the Discipline of the Olympic Games An Author-Cocitation Analysis
No full textThe authors conducted an author cocitation analysis on prominent authors writing about the Olympics during the 1990s. Author cocitation is an established bibliometric technique that can be used to measure the relative similarities of topics written about by the cited authors. This enables a visual representation of the “intellectual space” of the discipline, in this case the Olympics, to be created for the period under review. So core and peripheral research areas are identified, along with their major contributors. The representation appears as a two-dimensional cluster-enhanced map. Subject expertise was then applied to the results to place labels on the generated clusters of authors and their topics
Effects of Superabsorbent Zeba"" on survival and growth of Arizona Cypress (Cupressus arizonica Greene) seedlings
No full textDuring 2012, a research on effects of cornstarch-based superabsorbent Zeba"in afforestation with
Arizona Cypress (Cupressus arizonica Greene) seedlings was conducted. The purpose of the
experiment was to determine the effect of the superabsorbent on the survival and growth of the
seedlings. The experimental plot was established near the village of Mrshevci (Skopje region), on
sandy clay loam soil, in region with mixed continental and sub-mediterranean climate.
The experiment was designed as randomized block system on two plots. The first plot was planted
in March and the second in April 2012. In this experiment following variants of Arizona Cypress
seedling were represented: 1+0 and 2+0 bare root and 1+0 Yucosad container seedlings. A part of
seedlings of each variant were shortly soaked in gel of Zeba superabsorbent (concentration 100 g/10
L water), and non-treated seedlings were used as a control. During the all vegetation season, once
a month, number of survived seedlings per variant was recorded, and the height of the shoot and
the root collar diameter of the survived seedlings were measured.
At the end of vegetation season (October 2012), survival of seedlings of all variants was very low,
ranged from 0% to 10.3%. Of all the variants, a small increase of root collar diameter is observed
only in 1+0 container seedlings (0.15 mm in the control and 0.25 mm in treatment with Zeba).
The high seedling mortality was caused mostly by the long dry and extremely hot weather during the
2012 summer season. The results of this research suggest that in given ecological conditions the
superabsorbent Zeba has not had an impact on the survival and growth of seedling
Appropriate Similarity Measures for Author Cocitation Analysis
No full textWe provide a number of new insights into the methodological discussion about author cocitation analysis. We first argue that the use of the Pearson correlation for measuring the similarity between authors’ cocitation profiles is not very satisfactory. We then discuss what kind of similarity measures may be used as an alternative to the Pearson correlation. We consider three similarity measures in particular. One is the well-known cosine. The other two similarity measures have not been used before in the bibliometric literature. Finally, we show by means of an example that our findings have a high practical relevance.information science;Pearson correlation;cosine;similarity measure;author cocitation analysis
Zero Emission Bay Area (ZEBA) Fuel Cell Bus Demonstration: Second Results Report
No full textThis report presents results of a demonstration of 12 new fuel cell electric buses (FCEB) operating in Oakland, California. The 12 FCEBs operate as a part of the Zero Emission Bay Area (ZEBA) Demonstration, which also includes two new hydrogen fueling stations. This effort is the largest FCEB demonstration in the United States and involves five participating transit agencies. The ZEBA partners are collaborating with the U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) and DOE's National Renewable Energy Laboratory (NREL) to evaluate the buses in revenue service. The first results report was published in August 2011, describing operation of these new FCEBs from September 2010 through May 2011. New results in this report provide an update through April 2012
