TRADEMARK INFRINGEMENTS IN THE DOMAIN “.CZ”

The aim of this article is to ﬁ ll a gap in an area that has not yet been closely examined in the Czech Republic and the world: examining the level of trademark infringement in relation to the basic elements of the logical architecture of the Internet, namely domain names, resp. Websites that are published on them. The article aims to determine the actual state and create a methodology of rapid, and to some extent automated detection of the collision of rights connected to trademarks with domain names. Not only for the large scope of the investigated subject has it focused on the sector of the automotive industry in particular. Given the aim of the work, it answers questions whether the phenomenon of trademark infringement on the Internet is rather a minor issue, which concerns only a fraction of domain names and websites; whether the domains names, resp. websites violating the trademark rights share any similar characters; whether it is possible to automate the search process of ﬁ nding trademark infringements or if there is a way of ﬁ nding general rules that can be a valuable help in this process. The ﬁ rst part of the article describes the used methodology, sources of available data and the way the data were worked with. The next part deals in detail with input data that are relevant for this article. It describes the ways the data were obtained and the constraints that needed to be overcome doing so. Basic statistical parameters of the input data are also mentioned. The third part is focused on the important ﬁ ndings found in input data relating to Czech domain names and trademarks used on the Internet followed by detail examination of the Czech domain names for the sector of the automotive industry. By using the de ﬁ ned indicators of a collision (the characters) the results of the article show that the domain names on which the trademark infringement has been committed, share the same set of characters that can be tested automatically by a computer program.
Long-term effects of evapotranspiration on the flow duration curve in a coniferous plantation forest over 40 years

: We quantified long-term trends in evapotranspiration, runoff, and deep percolation using 40 years of hydrological data, examining the effects of evapotranspiration on runoff during forest development in a coniferous species. Using the flow duration curve, we evaluated the effects of evapo‐ transpiration on the entire range of flow stages (high to low flows). During the 40-year forest development, deep perco‐ lation ranged from 97 mm to 105 mm. Annual evapotran‐ spiration increased by 623–766 mm, which appeared to be caused by increased air temperature as well as forest devel‐ opment. Annual runoff consequently decreased by 937– 777 mm. In particular, pronounced decreases in daily flow were found with an exceedance probability of >11% in the flow duration curve. Long-term effects of evapotranspira‐ tion on runoff during forest development continued for a longer period than predicted by previous catchment studies of ~20 years duration. Our results suggest that the long-term patterns of evapotranspiration and runoff during forest development would differ from those reported by previous catchment studies under climate warming conditions and highlight the need for further research into separating the effects of forest development and increasing air tempera‐ ture on evapotranspiration in long-term hydrological data.
TEACHERS JOB SATISFACTION

This examination study was directed to job satisfaction level of higher educational instructors in Pondicherry. An institutionalized poll used to gauge the degree of job satisfaction in higher educational instructors. To think about the job satisfaction level of educators with other. The example picked for the examination was 100 instructors from self finance institution in Pondicherry. The outcomes indicated that degree of job satisfaction among the higher educational educators was nonpartisan. The specialists and researchers may direct further investigations on the components distinguished through factor examination.
Vertical vs. Horizontal: How Strategic Alliance Type Influence Firm Performance?

Strategic alliances have become a key focus in the management and marketing literature. However, much of the previous research in this area has focused on the antecedents and accounting effects of strategic alliances. There is an opportunity to more closely examine how alliance types might influence the public equity markets. As a result, this study summarizes the literature for the theoretical foundation of strategic alliances to increase the understanding of the two main types of strategic alliances, that is industry scope (vertical vs. horizontal alliances) and size scope (asymmetric vs. symmetric alliances). Then, this study proposes a conceptual framework to examine the main and relative effects between different types of strategic alliances and firm performance. Using the Bloomberg Mergers and Acquisitions (M&A) database from 1 January 2010 to 1 January 2016, we find that vertical symmetric alliances gain more abnormal returns than others. Finally, implications and limitations are also discussed.
Uncertainty as a Driving Force for Geoscientific Development

Geoscientists invest significant effort to cope with uncertainty in Earth system observation and modeling. While general discussions exist about uncertainty and risk communication, judgment and decision-making, and science communication with regard to Earth sciences, in this article, we tackle uncertainty from the perspective of Earth science practitioners. We argue different scientific methodologies must be used to recognize all types of uncertainty inherent to a scientific finding. Following a discovery science methodology results in greater potential for the quantification of uncertainty associated to scientific findings than staying inside hypothesis-driven science methodology, as is common practice. Enabling improved uncertainty quantification could relax debates about risk communication and decision-making since it reduces the room for personality traits when communicating scientific findings.
Reporting Practices, Knowledge and Opinion of Policy Regarding Drivers with Dementia Among Arkansas Neurologists and Geriatricians

Background: States have various policies regarding a physician’s ability or responsibility to report at-risk drivers with dementia to the Department of Motor Vehicles (DMV). Some states have mandatory reporting policies, others have optional reporting policies and some have no policy regarding this issue. Arkansas has no reporting policy regarding drivers with dementia to the DMV. Therefore, physicians in Arkansas face the risk of liability if they report a patient against their will to the DMV in good faith. Neurologists and geriatricians are often in a position to diagnose and treat individuals with dementia. Research Questions: The following three research questions were developed in an effort to identify how the problem of drivers with dementia is defined among these two types of specialists in Arkansas: (1) What knowledge do Arkansas neurologists and geriatricians have of state policy regarding reporting of at-risk drivers with dementia to the DMV; (2) What are Arkansas neurologists’ and geriatricians’ opinions regarding various policy options for reporting of such drivers to the DMV; and (3) What are the reporting practices of Arkansas neurologists and geriatricians of drivers with dementia to the DMV? Methods: A survey was distributed to Arkansas neurologists and geriatricians to explore the reporting practices, knowledge and opinion of policy regarding drivers with dementia among these practitioners. Results: There was considerable uncertainty among respondents, regarding the process of assessing and reporting at-risk drivers with dementia in Arkansas. Support for optional reporting policy was very strong. Mandatory reporting policy was less favored by those surveyed. Respondents reported that conversations with patients and family members regarding the cessation of driving is often contentious and ongoing. Conclusions: Findings have implications for both policy and practice. It is recommended that the Arkansas legislature develop and adopt an optional reporting policy. There is also a need for physician education regarding state reporting policy, as well as training in the assessment of fitness to drive for patients with dementia.
Establishing the validity and reliability of the ACHV-PE questionnaire into the Spanish language

Values are responsible for our attitudes, behaviours, and beliefs. They guide our thoughts and define who we are. The main purpose of this study was to establish the validity and reliability of the questionnaire “Attitudes of Children towards Values in Physical Education (ACHV-PE)” into the Spanish language. A total of eight hundred and two (N = 802) student, age 10-15 years old, between the 6th and 8th grade, participated in this study. The process of validity was based on translation and back-translation of the questionnaire, pilot-testing it to a group of students and the Factor Analysis. The Exploratory Factor Analysis showed five factors with the Eigenvalues of 6.24 and 1.06, accounting for 60.28 % of the variance. Confirmatory Factor Analysis demonstrated a good fit for the five-factor solution. Regarding the results obtained, we can conclude that the questionnaire ACHV-PE can be considered valid and reliable for measuring and evaluating the attitudes of children towards values in Physical Education classes in Spanish speaking countries.
Analysis of power system parameters for islanding detection using wavelet transform

This paper classifies the basic power system parameters based on sensitivity and performance capability. This is the basic step in selecting the suitable parameter for intelligent islanding detection technique. The behaviour of basic power system parameters is analyzed using wavelet transform under all possible islanding and non-islanding conditions. In wavelet transform, the mother wavelet plays a significant role in the extraction of parameter features. The db4 mother wavelet is selected after an extensive analysis on different mother wavelets. As a result, it has been found that the extracted feature of reactive power shows the highest capability to distinguish islanding from non-islanding events.
Formation of planar hybrid lipid/polymer membranes anchored to an S-layer protein lattice by vesicle binding and rupture

ABSTRACT Exploitation of biomolecular and biomimetic components on solid surfaces gain increasing importance for the design of stable functional platforms. The present study performed by quartz crystal microbalance with dissipation monitoring (QCM-D) reports on the formation of planar hybrid lipid/polymer membranes anchored to a crystalline surface (S-) layer protein lattice. In this approach, hybrid lipid/polymer vesicles were chemically bound to the S-layer protein lattice. Subsequently, to form a hybrid planar layer rupture and fusion was triggered either by (1) β–diketone – europium ion complex formation or (2) successive application of calcium ions, lowering the pH from 9 to 4, and the detergent CHAPS. As determined by QCM-D, method 1 resulted for a polymer content of 5% in a planar membrane with some imbedded intact vesicles, whereas method 2 succeeded in planar hybrid membranes with a polymer content of even up to 70%. These results provide evidence for the effective formation of planar lipid/polymer membranes varying in their composition on an S-layer protein lattice.
‘Too humble and sad’: The effect of humility and emotional display when a politician talks about a moral issue

Humble leadership can be defined as a positive psychological feature that allows for admitting one’s own limitations, being open to new ideas and giving a voice to, and recognizing the merits of, others. Humility has been associated with positive emotions, like gratitude and elevation, however it has been neglected in the political domain, seen on the contrary as the management of power. The present experimental study was aimed at exploring the possible persuasive effect of a humble politician by considering the role played by emotional display (joy, calm, sadness and anger) when the politician discusses an ethical issue (such as hosting immigration). Contrary to our expectations, humble communication elicited negative emotions and evaluations of the politician, especially when the politician exhibited a sad facial display; further, it induced in voters a state of personal distress towards immigrants, and thus a negative association with a hosting orientation.
State of the Art of Contingent Valuation

The contingent valuation method (CVM) is a stated preference approach to the valuation of non-market goods. It has a 50+-year history beginning with a clever suggestion to simply ask people for their consumer surplus. The first study was conducted in the 1960s and over 10,000 studies have been conducted to date. The CVM is used to estimate the use and non-use values of changes in the environment. It is one of the more flexible valuation methods, having been applied in a large number of contexts and policies. The CVM requires construction of a hypothetical scenario that makes clear what will be received in exchange for payment. The scenario must be realistic and consequential. Economists prefer revealed preference methods for environmental valuation due to their reliance on actual behavior data. In unguarded moments, economists are quick to condemn stated preference methods due to their reliance on hypothetical behavior data. Stated preference methods should be seen as approaches to providing estimates of the value of certain changes in the allocation of environmental and natural resources for which no other method can be used. The CVM has a tortured history, having suffered slings and arrows from industry-funded critics following the Exxon Valdez and British Petroleum (BP)–Deepwater Horizon oil spills. The critics have harped on studies that fail certain tests of hypothetical bias and scope, among others. Nonetheless, CVM proponents have found that it produces similar value estimates to those estimated from revealed preference methods such as the travel cost and hedonic methods. The CVM has produced willingness to pay (WTP) estimates that exhibit internal validity. CVM research teams must have a range of capabilities. A CVM study involves survey design so that the elicited WTP estimates have face validity. Questionnaire development and data collection are skills that must be mastered. Welfare economic theory is used to guide empirical tests of theory such as the scope test. Limited dependent variable econometric methods are often used with panel data to test value models and develop estimates of WTP. The popularity of the CVM is on the wane; indeed, another name for this article could be “the rise and fall of CVM,” not because the CVM is any less useful than other valuation methods. It is because the best practice in the CVM is merging with discrete choice experiments, and researchers seem to prefer to call their approach discrete choice experiments. Nevertheless, the problems that plague discrete choice experiments are the same as those that plague contingent valuation. Discrete choice experiment–contingent valuation–stated preference researchers should continue down the same familiar path of methods development.
Characteristics of the Flank Magnetopause: MMS Results

We have used a large number of magnetopause crossings by the Magnetospheric Multiscale (MMS) mission to investigate macroscopic properties of this current sheet, with emphasis on the flanks of the magnetopause. Macroscopic features such as thickness, location, and motion of the magnetopause were calculated as a function of local time sector. The results show that the flanks of the magnetopause are significantly thicker than the dayside magnetopause. Thicknesses vary from about 650 km near noon to over 1,000 km near the terminator. Current densities vary in a similar manner, with average current densities around noon almost twice as high as near the terminator. We also find a dawn‐dusk asymmetry in many of the macroscopic parameters; the dawn magnetopause is thicker than at dusk, while the dusk flank is more dynamic, with a higher average normal velocity.
Health in connection with takotsubo syndrome. Experiences, symptoms and utilization of health care

Health is subjective, involves the whole person and cannot be determined by others. It is not merely the absence of disease and illness but a resource in life. Takotsubo syndrome (TS) is a form of acute, reversible heart failure that primarily affects post-menopausal women. The complete pathological mechanisms are unknown but connections to acute stress, for example accidents, public speaking or death of a close one, have been made. The overall aim of the thesis was to build an understanding of the meaning of being affected by TS and to investigate to what extent people affected by TS utilize health care resources and its accompanying costs. A multi-method qualitative and quantitative approach was used to gather and analyze data. In Study I and Study II 19 and 25 people, respectively, were interviewed. In Study III, questionnaires were used to compare self-reported symptoms between 48 people with TS and 79 people with myocardial infarction. In Study IV registry data on utilization of health care resources and its costs were retrieved for 58 people affected by TS. The findings in this thesis show that the people with TS seem to live under burdensome circumstances long before the acute onset of TS and that this affects their health. Symptoms often start a few days before the acute onset and persist after discharge. Residual symptoms cause worry and make it impossible to live as desired. People affected by TS and myocardial infarction had comparable frequency and severity of symptoms 8 weeks after discharge. The average length of stay in hospital was 6,4 days and they had on average 15,6 primary or outpatient clinic contacts during the 6 months after discharge. The average direct health care cost for the period was SEK 95,071. The conclusion from this thesis is that illness is present before the onset of TS and that the illness persists after discharge. The findings indicate that symptoms and social structures affect health. Person-centered care can be a viable option for combining medicine with the personal experience of health.
Discovery of Two Nearby Post-T Tauri Stellar Associations

In this work we report the discovery of two new stellar associations in close vicinity of the Sun at roughly 180 and 150 pc. These two associations, u Tau assoc and e Tau assoc, were detected based on their clustering in a multi-dimensional parameter space including α, δ, μα, μδ, and ϖ of Gaia. The fitting of pre-main-sequence model isochrones in their color–magnitude diagrams suggests that the two associations are of about 50 Myr old and the group members lower than ∼0.8 M⊙ are at the stage of post-T Tauri.
Mild cognitive dysfunction in physically asymptomatic HIV infection: recent research evidence and professional implications

Summary Cognitive abnormalities may occur in the physically asymptomatic phases of the infection with the human immunodeficiency virus (HIV), and poor education may represent a risk factor for their development. These abnormalities are usually mild, and apparently do not affect subjects’ daily living performance, although this notion should be regarded as preliminary, due to the present primitive stage of development of the instruments which assess functioning in daily living activities. The above evidence has emerged from the cross-sectional phase of the WHO Neuropsychiatric AIDS Study, carried out in the five geographic areas predominantly affected by the HIV epidemic (sub-Saharian Africa, Latin America, North America, South-East Asia, Western Europe), on subject samples that are representative of the whole population of HIV-infected persons living in those areas. The professional implications of HIV-associated early cognitive dysfunction are open to research: for example the current debate on the impact of dysfunction on aviation-related skills emphasizes the need for test batteries with a higher predictive potential than those presently available.
The Average Coding Length of Huffman Coding Based Signal Processing and Its Application in Fault Severity Recognition

The transient impact components in vibration signal, which are the major information for bearing fault severity recognition, are often interfered with by ambient noise. Meanwhile, for bearing fault severity recognition, the frequency band selection methods which are employed to pre-process the contaminated vibration signal only select the partial frequency band of the vibration signal and cause information loss of other frequency band. Aiming at this issue, this paper proposes a novel fault severity recognition method based on Huffman coding, which can retain all the information of the frequency band, and is applied for the first time to bearing fault severity recognition. Specifically, the average coding length of Huffman coding (ACLHC) of the original vibration signal is first calculated to reduce the noise and highlight the impact components of the signal. Then, the ACLHC is encoded by symbolic aggregate approximation (SAX) to reflect the modulation information of bearing. Finally, the Lempel‑Ziv indicator (LZ indicator) of the symbol sequence is calculated to reflect the fault severity. The proposed method is verified by the bearing datasets under different working conditions. Compared with the methods based on frequency band selection, the proposed method effectively recognizes the fault severity of bearing for more working conditions.
Effects of self-conditioning techniques in promoting weight loss in patients with severe obesity: a randomized controlled trial protocol

Background: Obesity is a worldwide epidemic; most obese individuals who lose weight after lifestyle educative treatments, soon regain it. Our aim is to evaluate the effectiveness of a training to teach self-conditioning technique (self-hypnosis) added to standard care in determining weight loss compared with standard care in patients with obesity Methods: This randomized controlled open trial will recruit 120 obese patients (BMI 35-50 Kg/m 2 ), aged 20-70 years. The control group will receive a traditional approach: diet + exercise + behavioral recommendations. The experimental group will receive self-conditioning techniques + traditional approach. Three individual sessions of hypnosis with rapid-induction techniques will be administered by trained personnel. All the participants of both groups will be assessed at three, six, nine and twelve months after randomization. The primary outcome is weight loss difference between groups at 12 months after randomization; secondary outcomes are changes in adherence to dietetic and exercise recommendations, appetite and satisfaction/well-being, waist circumference and body fat, blood pressure and blood metabolic and inflammatory variables. Conclusions: The results of this trial will assess whether a self-conditioning approach, based on self-hypnosis, is able to help participants to modulate unhealthy patterns of eating and sustain weight loss in the long term.
