Embodied mindfulness: performance training for deaf and hearing actors

Mindfulness is a cultivated state of awareness which has been shown to enhance psychological resilience, emotion regulation, and well-being. Mindfulness training entails the development of particular modes of attention, intention, body awareness and presence - all of which are also foundational skills for the performer. Evidence suggests that a mindfulness training programme for performers would develop key professional skills whilst at the same time enhancing performers' mental health resilience, currently an area of concern.
	The proposed project will develop and test the efficacy of a mindfulness training programme for Deaf and hearing performers through an exploration of mindfulness practices which focus on the body. The ER will examine the role of the physiological mechanisms which underpin awareness, and which are instrumental in the development of mindfulness; these are interoception, proprioception and exteroception. The ER will use the resulting information to design an embodied mindfulness practice for performers.
	The project utilises an innovative practice-led research methodology, with two groups of subjects: Deaf and hearing actors. The ER will investigate, document, discuss and provide evidence-based support for a performance training practice that can deliver enhancements to both physical awareness and mindfulness. By analysing the links between proprioception, interoception, awareness and mindfulness, and by examining the Deaf experience of embodiment, the ER will contribute new knowledge on the role of the body in mindfulness practice, and will develop an embodied mindfulness training that is fully accessible to both Deaf and hearing actors.
The modern topography of the Scythian Plate as evidence for deformations in the crystalline basement

This work presents the results of tectonophysical modeling of tectonic deformations in the crystalline basement of the Scythian Plate, including estimated deformation values and stress-field orientations. The morphostructural parameters of the Earth’s surface, which were calculated using the LESSA program, were compared. In addition, some parameters of modern geodynamic processes that occur in the Scythian Plate, such as the level of seismicity and heat flow value, were calculated. The similarity between ancient and modern geodynamic processes allows us to propose that deformational processes in the crystalline basement of the Scythian Plate play a significant role in the formation of the modern topography and makes it possible to use morphostructural parameters of the relief for studying the deep structure of platform covers.
Structural Studies of Nonionic Dodecanol Ethoxylates at the Oil–Water Interface: Effect of Increasing Head Group Size

The conformation of charged surfactants at the oil-water interface was recently reported. With the aim to assess the role of the head group size on the conformation of the adsorbed layer, we have extended these studies to a series of nonionic dodecanol ethoxylate surfactants (C12En, ethylene oxide units n from 6 to 12). The study was performed using neutron reflectometry to enable maximum sensitivity to buried interfaces. Similarly to charged surfactants, the interface was found to be broader and rougher compared to the air-water interface. Irrespective of the head group size, the tail group region was found to assume a staggered conformation. The conformations of the head group were found to be significantly different from those of the air-water interface, moving from a globular to an almost fully extended conformation at the oil-water interface. The stretching of the head groups is attributed to the presence of some hexadecane oil molecules, which may penetrate all the way to this region. It is proposed here that the presence of the oil, which can efficiently solvate the surfactant tail groups, plays a key role in the conformation of the adsorbed layer and is responsible for the broadening of the interface.
Development and Promotion of Creative Industry Potentials in Central European Cities


Within global competition cities need to win investors and create more and better jobs. The exploitation of creative industries, which have high, but often unrecognised potentials, contributes to the fulfillment of the Lisbon objectives on local levels. The challenges for creative industry actors are high (low capital endowment, poor networking, low external visibility), though they do not have enough capacities to develop their potentials as they lack needed resources and know-how. Most European cities are not aware of the benefits creative industries do offer and have not yet developed suitable policies or instruments. That goes hand in hand with a lack of transnational comparable data on the impact of creative industries for economic growth. At the same time a lobby for creative industry needs to be strengthened.

CREATIVE CITIES fosters the exploitation of unused potentials (e.g. improvement of income situation to stabilise and increase employment, international marketing). Improving the creative industry sector's environment enhances competitiveness and employment opportunities as significant contributions of the project towards the achievement of the Lisbon agenda.
Effect of annealing temperature on transformation induced plasticity effect of a lean duplex stainless steel

Abstract Effects of annealing temperature on the mechanical property and martensite transformation of a new lean duplex stainless steel have been investigated. It was found that the elongation increased with the annealing temperatures and reached the maximum of 61.2% after annealing at 1150 °C. A sequential γ  →  e  →  α  ' martensite transformation was generated during tensile and brought the transformation induced plasticity effect. More than 30% α ′ martensite was induced after tensile in the specimens annealed at 800 ~ 1000 °C, whereas only 8.8% α ′ was induced at 1150 °C. The M d (30/50) temperatures of austenite phase reduced from 97 °C to 46 °C with the annealing temperatures varying from 800 °C to 1150 °C. Therefore the austenite phase became more stable and transformed to e and α ′ martensite phase gradually in a wide region and thus caused better plasticity. This also indicated that γ → e transformation was important for transformation induced plasticity effect.

Reconstructing a dated tree of life using phylogenetic incongruence

With the advent of genome-scale sequencing, molecular phylogeny, which reconstructs gene trees from homologous sequences, has reached an impasse. Instead of answering open questions, new genomes have reignited old debates. The problem is clear, gene trees are not species trees, each is the unique result of series of evolutionary events. If, however, we model these differences in the context of a common species tree, we can access a wealth of information on genome evolution and the diversification of species that is not available to traditional methods. For example, as horizontal gene transfer (HGT) can only occur between coexisting species, HGTs provide information on the order of speciations. When HGT is rare, lineage sorting can generate incongruence between gene trees and the dating problem can be formulated in terms of biologically meaningful parameters (such as population size), that are informative on the rate of evolution and hence invaluable to molecular dating. 
My first goal is to develop methods that systematically extract information on the pattern and timing of genomic evolution by explaining differences between gene trees. This will allow us to, for the first time, reconstruct a dated tree of life from genome-scale data. We will use parallel programming to maximise the number of genomes analysed.
My second goal is to apply these methods to open problems, e.g.: i) to resolve the timing of microbial evolution and its relationship to Earth history, where the extreme paucity of fossils limits the use of molecular dating methods, by using HGT events as “molecular fossils”; ii) to reconstruct rooted phylogenies from complete genomes and harness phylogenetic incongruence to answer long standing questions, such as the of diversification of animals or the position of eukaryotes among archaea; and iii) for eukaryotic groups such as Fungi, where evidence of significant amounts of HGT is emerging our methods will also allow the quantification of the extent of HGT.

FORMWORK APPARATUS

The formwork assembly (10) is used to cast tubular or part-tubular structures, one particular application being in the lining of mine ore passes with a concrete lining (54). The assembly includes an internal framework (12, 14, 32; 100, 102, 104) and external, flexible formwork (34, 130) supported by the framework. The framework can be adjusted between a casting condition (Figure 1) in which it supports the formwork (34, 130) at the inner periphery of the structure which is to be cast and an inwardly collapsed condition in which it supports the formwork (34, 130) at a position spaced inwardly from such inner periphery. In the case of a mine ore pass lining, the assembly is moved upwardly in increments after each casting operation.
Communication device setting apparatus, communication device setting method, and recording medium.

A communication device setting apparatus is arranged to register setup information in a communication device connected to the communication device setting apparatus via a communication network. In the communication device setting apparatus, a device setting unit recognizes an access from the communication device upon power up of the communication device, acquires setup information, which is specific to the communication device and contains a MAC address of the communication device, from list information pre-recorded in the communication device setting apparatus, and performs a setting process to set the acquired setup information in the communication device. A setting management unit detects an end of the setting process performed by the device setting unit, changes the list information based on the setup information having been set in the communication device after the end of the setting process, and manages the communication device according to the changed list information.
Assessing soft-tissue characteristics of facial asymmetry with photographs

Precise diagnosis and treatment of facial asymmetry are important in orthodontics. The aims of this study were to determine the soft-tissue characteristics of patients perceived to have severe asymmetry requiring treatment and the soft-tissue factors affecting the subjective assessment of facial asymmetry.In the first part of this study, 5 observers examined 1000 photographs of patients receiving orthodontic treatment and selected 100 for further assessment. These photographs showed 50 patients who were considered to have little or moderate asymmetry and 50 who were considered to have severe asymmetry. A pilot study was performed to select the reference photographs representing the most symmetric (score of 0) and the most asymmetric (score of 100). A panel of 9 orthodontists then rated the facial asymmetry of the 100 patients on a 100-mm visual analog scale. The scale was divided into 3 equal regions. Region 1 included patients with the least facial asymmetry; according to the orthodontists, these patients did not require treatment. Region 2 included patients with moderate facial asymmetry who did not require treatment. Region 3 included patients with the most facial asymmetry who did require treatment.One-way analysis of variance showed that lip canting, chin deviation, body inclination difference, and gonial angle difference had significant differences between the groups. Chin deviation and gonial angle difference were significant factors affecting the assessment of facial asymmetry, according to stepwise linear regression analysis.These results will help in the diagnosis and treatment planning for patients with asymmetry.

The Effect of Trade Liberalization of Bosnia and Herzegovina with the Leading Trade Partners

This paper presents our research on the effect of trade liberalization with leading trade partners on Bosnia and Herzegovina’s (B&H) trade balance. The theoretical framework includes a gravity model and GMM dynamic panel analysis as the econometric technique. The research results show that the export of products from B&H increased thanks to the growth of macroeconomic indicators of trading partners, dummy variables and the export of certain products according to the sector structure. On the other hand, imports of products to B&H decreased due to the decline of B&H’s macroeconomic indicators, dummy variables and reduced imports of certain products according to the sector structure. From these findings, we can conclude that through the process of trade liberalization with developed countries, B&H recorded an increase in exports and reduction of the leading imports sector, which led to a reduction in the trade deficit.
Human Immunodeficiency Virus (HIV) Infection in a Child Presenting as Acute Disseminated Encephalomyelitis

Acute disseminated encephalomyelitis is an extremely rare occurrence in human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) infection. We describe an 8-year-old male child who presented with weakness of both lower limbs for 10 days and focal convulsions for 2 days. The child had left, upper motor neuron facial palsy, lower limb hypotonia, and exaggerated deep tendon reflexes. Enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay antibodies for HIV tested positive and the CD4 count was 109 cells/µL. The magnetic resonance imaging (MRI, brain) revealed extensive confluent hyperintensities (on T2-weighted images) in left parietal, right temporal, and right occipital regions of the white matter, and similar signals were seen in right lentiform nucleus and right posterior thalami, suggesting acute disseminated encephalomyelitis. There was transient improvement with intravenous methyl prednisolone. The patient succumbed to the illness. Perinatally transmitted pediatric HIV infection presenting with acute disseminated encephalomyelitis has not yet been reported in the medical literature.

Cluster development med

The proposal lies within priority research & innovation topics in EU-Mediterranean cooperation, as highlighted in several past projects and policies reccomendations, i.e. within the MOCO - Monitoring Committee for Euro-Mediterranean Cooperation in RTD. International Cluster Cooperation offers opportunities to scal up research and technological potential, enhance competitiveness, support the regional socio-economic development and reinforce the market placement of new, innovative products. These cooperation approaches often fail due to constraints on resources, capabilities, instruments and funding. On the other hand, over 2.000 Clusters only in the European Union covering all sectors and able to realize an intersectorial framework, as well as related clusters and networks in the southern Mediterranean countries, form a great potential for transnational clustering. 

The EU’s framework for state aid defines innovative clusters as follows: “Innovation clusters mean grouping of indipendent and innovative start-ups, small, medium and large undertakings as well as research organizations operating in a particular sector and region, and designed to stimulate innovative activity by promoting intensive interactions, sharing of facilities and exchange of knowledge and expertise, and by contributing effectively to technology transfer, networking and information dissemination among the undertakings in the cluster”.
Taking into account the current socio-economic situations ClusDevMed priority topics are, in particular:
- Agribusiness, agro food, food security – Energy - Water  

Core research areas is: Green Tech in the field of Clustering Activities
Archaeometric analysis of maltese prehistoric pottery

Ceramic pots are an enduring and resilient document of ancient culture. Often specific to time and place, they are a valuable record which can enlighten our understanding of ancient chronologies, aesthetics, technologies, trade networks and cultural ties. The Maltese islands have a particularly rich, diverse and dynamic ceramic assemblage covering the entire prehistoric period. While the later ceramic assemblages of Bronze Age Malta have received considerable study over the past decade, little archaeometric research has been conducted on the earlier ceramic phases. MaltaPot will address this by exploring the emergence of the earliest prehistoric ceramic phases (namely Għar Dalam, Skorba and Żebbuġ 5000-3800BC) through a series of multi-disciplinary laboratory-based methods including typological analysis (3D laser scanning and digital classification software) and material studies (optical microscopy, LIBS, XRF and XRD). Findings from this project will dramatically increase understanding of the earliest settlers on the Maltese islands and it will also have wider implications for our understanding of Mediterranean archaeology during this important period of Neolithic colonisation by exploring cultural links through typological, technological and material studies. MaltaPot will develop new methodologies for the archival and analysis of prehistoric ceramic assemblages and also advance new methods of displaying and dissemination of results to both the wider public and academics. The fellowship will contribute to the researcher’s career development through the acquisition of advanced skills in archaeometric approaches to ceramic analysis as well as developing skills within the heritage sector through a series of events designed to disseminate her results to the wider public. The project will also serve to consolidate and extend the researchers network of professional contacts within Europe and beyond.
