LE CONCEPT DE TRANSCENDANCE CHEZ GABRIEL MARCEL ET PIERRE BOUTANG
Authors: MERCIER Paul
Published: December 2018

The concept of Transcendence in Gabriel Marcel and Pierre Boutang. This article intends to explore the concept of Transcendence in Gabriel Marcel and Pierre Boutang’s writings. In philosophy, Transcendence is usually seen as a kind of sphere that creates a contact between humankind and divinity, or as surpassing oneself. Contrariwise, Gabriel Marcel and Pierre Boutang show that transcendence draws a path that the Christian viator – a notion explained throughout this article – has to take using the concepts of Mystery with Gabriel Marcel and Secret with Pierre Boutang, in order to achieve salvation.

Negocio, tecnología e instituciones en la molienda del trigo en Castilla la Vieja y León a mediados del siglo XVIII
Authors: Moreno Lázaro Javier
Published: December 2018

En este texto se propone una aproximación a la molturación del trigo a mediados del siglo XVIII en su naturaleza mercantil, tecnológica e institucional. Para ello empleo como fuente las respuestas generales del Catastro del Marqués de la Ensenada en Palencia. Sostengo la hipótesis de que las condiciones de obtención de harinas fueron sumamente arcaicas en esas tres dimensiones, pero al tiempo eficientes, en tanto que garantizaron el suministro del pan a la población castellana sin alterar el statu quo entre la nobleza, la iglesia y el concejo. No obstante, las consideraciones de las cuentas de los grandes molinos desvelan que este equilibrio comenzó a quebrase en torno a 1780, justamente cuando se implantó la nueva política agraria de la Ilustración.
Política y policía metrológica de la Corona de Castilla hasta la introducción del Sistema Métrico
Authors: Castro Redondo Rubén
Published: December 2018

La monarquía castellana pronto se ocupó de legislar contra el caos metrológico que existía en el interior del reino. Desde Alfonso X hasta Carlos IV, la legislación trató periódicamente de unificar los pesos y medidas del diferenciado territorio castellano, aunque todas y cada una de las reformas fracasaron en su cometido final. El presente artículo trata de analizar el modo a través del cual la monarquía creó, diseñó y difundió sus reformas de pesos y medidas a todo el territorio castellano, así como el efecto real que estas tuvieron en el otro extremo de la pirámide administrativa: los concejos locales. De este modo la Corona, además de las entidades locales contribuyeron a definir la policía metrológica.

En voz de sus pobladores, la posesión data  de años anteriores 1492. El caso pone en entredicho la justiciabilidad de sus derechos étnico-culturales y agrarios, y resulta ser un caso interesante de análisis de la evolución del derecho agrario en México.
Galbinothrix, a new monotypic genus of Chrysotrichaceae (Arthoniomycetes) lacking pulvinic acid derivatives
Authors: Frisch Andreas , Thor Göran , Moon Kwang Hee , Ohmura Yoshihito
Published: December 2018

Galbinothrix caesiopruinosa is described from Japan and Korea. The new genus and species is placed in Chrysotrichaceae by its ascoma morphology and by a phylogenetic analysis of mtSSU and nLSU sequence data using Bayesian and maximum likelihood inference. The monotypic genus Galbinothrix is superficially similar to Chrysothrix caesia in having dark brown ascomata covered by a thin bluish grey pruina, reddish brown ascomatal pigment in the epithecium and proper exciple, the greyish green to yellowish olive thallus, and usnic acid as the main secondary thallus compound. It differs from this species and all other Chrysotrichaceae by its large, oblong, thick-walled ascospores with a distinct epispore, the narrowly clavate to almost tubular asci, and the never clearly granular to leprose thallus.

ОЦЕНКА ДЕЙСТВИЯ ПРОТИВОГОЛОЛЕДНЫХ РЕАГЕНТОВ РАЗНОГО ХИМИЧЕСКОГО СОСТАВА НА РОСТ ТРАВЯНИСТЫХ РАСТЕНИЙ И ПОЧВЕННОЕ ДЫХАНИЕ
Authors: Герасимов А.О. , Чугунова М.В.
Published: December 2018

Представлены результаты сравнительного изучения воздействия применяемых в Санкт-Петербурге противогололедных средств (ПГС) различного состава на рост травянистых растений и почвенное дыхание, проведенного с целью определить наименее опасные и установить допустимые концентрации их применения. Были исследованы ПГС на основе хлоридов натрия, магния, кальция, ацетата калия и формиата натрия, которые в условиях лабораторного и полевого экспериментов вносились в дерново-подзолистую почву в концентрациях 20, 50 и 150 г/м2. Показателями воздействия ПГС на растения служили биомасса газонных трав и длина корней проростков пшеницы. В лабораторных опытах средние и высокие дозы хлоридов значительно подавляли почвенное дыхание и также снижали длину проростков семян пшеницы и биомассу газонных трав. В отдельных случаях угнетение растений наблюдалось уже при минимальном уровне хлоридных реагентов, а при высоком уровне оно достигало 100%. Среди хлоридных ПГС наименее токсичными оказался хлорид магния. Ацетатные и формиатные реагенты не оказывали на растения и почвенные микроорганизмы столь же выраженное токсическое действие. В некоторых случаях отмечался их стимулирующий эффект, в частности, на почвенное дыхание. В полевых экспериментах в течение вегетационного сезона ингибирующее действие хлоридных ПГС постепенно нивелировалось природными факторами (атмосферные осадки и др.) до слаботоксичного или нейтрального. Ацетатные и формиатные ПГС при сравнении с хлоридными менее опасны для растений и, судя по почвенному дыханию, для микроорганизмов и могут рекомендоваться к использованию в городской среде. В условиях промывного водного режима Санкт-Петербурга рекомендуется, чтобы концентрации применяемых противогололедных средств не превышали 50 г/м2.
Mujeres excombatientes y transformación de conflictos: paradojas de la construcción de la paz en la lucha armada
Authors: Barrera Téllez Andrea Marcela
Published: December 2018

La participación de las mujeres en el conflicto armado colombiano como combatientes suele ser un fenómeno social frecuentemente desconocido; más aún, los motivos políticos que están en el centro de la militancia de muchas de ellas parecen estar invisibilizados, gracias a una idea hegemónica según la cual ellas o bien son extremadamente crueles y violentas, o bien son víctimas pasivas de un conflicto que les ha sido completamente impuesto. Este texto busca explorar las motivaciones políticas de la militancia de las mujeres en los grupos armados insurgentes y, en general, de su participación en la lucha armada en el país. Por esta razón, se presta una atención especial a las voces, los relatos, las reflexiones y los análisis de mujeres excombatientes con quienes hemos podido hablar o a quienes hemos tenido la oportunidad de leer, y que proponen perspectivas novedosas sobre la relación entre la guerra, la lucha armada, la transformación de los conflictos y la paz.

Pressure-Induced Symmetry Changes in Body-Centered Cubic Zeolites
Authors: Nearchou Antony , Cornelius Mero-Lee , Jones Zoe , Collings Ines E. , Wells Stephen A. , Raithby Paul R. , Sartbaeva Asel
Published: December 2018

Previous work has shown a strong correlation between zeolite framework flexibility and the nature of structural symmetry and phase transitions. However, there is little experimental data regarding this relationship, in addition to how flexibility can be connected to the synthesis of these open framework materials. This is of interest for the synthesis of novel zeolites, which require organic additives to permutate the resulting geometry and symmetry of the framework. Here, we have used high pressure powder X-ray diffraction to study the three zeolites: Na-X, RHO and ZK-5, which can all be prepared using 18-crown-6 ether as an organic additive. We observe significant differences in how the occluded 18-crown-6 ether influences the framework flexibility – this being dependant on the geometry of the framework. We use these differences as an indicator to define the role of 18-crown-6 ether during zeolite crystallisation. Furthermore, in conjunction with previous work we predict that pressure-induced symmetry transitions are intrinsic to body-centred cubic zeolites. The high symmetry yields fewer degrees of freedom, meaning it is energetically favourable to lower the symmetry to facilitate further compression.
The Influence of Nitrogen Position on Charge Carrier Mobility in Enantiopure Aza[6]helicene Crystals
Authors: Salerno Francesco , Rice Beth , Schmidt Julia A. , Fuchter Matthew J. , Nelson Jenny , Jelfs Kim
Published: December 2018

The properties of an organic semiconductor are dependent on both the chemical structure of the molecule involved, and how it is arranged in the solid-state. It is challenging to extract the influence of each individual factor, as small changes in the molecular structure often dramatically change the crystal packing and hence solid-state structure. Here, we use calculations to explore the influence of the nitrogen position on the charge mobility of a chiral organic molecule when the crystal packing is kept constant. The transfer integrals for a series of enantiopure aza[6]helicene crystals sharing the same packing were analysed in order to identify the best supramolecular motifs to promote charge carrier mobility. The regioisomers considered differ only in the positioning of the nitrogen atom in the aromatic scaffold. The simulations showed that even this small change in the chemical structure has a strong effect on the charge transport in the crystal, leading to differences in charge mobility of up to one order of magnitude. Some aza[6]helicene isomers that were packed interlocked with each other showed high HOMO-HOMO integrals (up to 70 meV), whilst molecules arranged with translational symmetry generally afforded the highest LUMO-LUMO integrals (40 - 70 meV). As many of the results are not intuitively obvious, a computational approach provides additional insight into the design of new semiconducting organic materials.

Authors: Ristina Lilien
Published: December 2018

Jaksa adalah pejabat fungsional yang diberi wewenang oleh undang-undang untuk melakukan penuntutan. Sementara perumusan di dalam Undang-Undang Republik Indonesia Nomor 11 Tahun 2012 tentang Sistem Peradilan Pidana Anak, bahwa tingkat penyidikan, penuntutan dan pemeriksaan perkara anak di pengadilan negeri wajib diupayakan diversi (pengalihan). Konsep diversi adalah pengalihan penyelesaian perkara anak dari proses peradilan pidana ke proses di luar peradilan pidana. Diterapkannya konsep diversi memberi pengaruh terhadap peran jaksa dalam melakukan dan melaksanakan tugasnya. Penelitian ini menggunakan metode yuridis normatif dengan spesifikasi penelitian yang bersifat deskriptif analitis. Jenis data yang digunakan dalam penelitian ini adalah data sekunder. Simpulan yang diperoleh dari hasil penelitian ini adalah Peran jaksa dalam diversi adalah sebagai mediator dan fasilitator yang memastikan bahwa penegakan hukum tetap dapat terlaksana dengan tanpa mengabaikan perlindungan terhadap anak pelaku tindak pidana. Hambatan dalam pelaksanaan diversi antara lain kurangnya pemahaman dari pihak terkait mengenai pengertian dan tujuan dilaksanakannya diversi. Sedangkan upaya untuk mengatasi dilakukan dengan memberikan pengertian terhadap keluarga dan anak secara rinci mengenai diversi.

The cognitive-personal features of patients diagnosed with breast cancer were studied, i.e. the degree of severity of post-traumatic reactions, the level of actual and personal anxiety, basic personal attitudes relating to the self-image and the surrounding world; the presence of depressive symptoms. As a result, individual post-traumatic stress reactions were highlighted, with distress reaching the level corresponding to the clinical picture of post-traumatic stress disorder. Subjects were registered with subdepression, i.e. pessimistic assessment of events and the self, the reduction of working capacity. Most patients have high rates of situational anxiety. At the same time, the overwhelming majority of patients do not exhibit high levels of personal anxiety.
Methodology used: Mississippi Scale (MS, Mississippi Scale, Keane et al., 1988); Spalberger-Khanin's Scale of Situational and Personality Anxiety; Scale of basic beliefs (World Assumption Scale, WAS, Janoff-Bulman, 1982); Beck Depression Inventory (Depression Inventory, BDI, Beck & Steer, 1987).
The results demonstrated that basic beliefs of patients have the following specificity: predominantly negative image of the self and the world, confidence in their own failure, inability to control the occurring events. Women suffer from decreasing sense of the value and significance of their selves. The world and surrounding people are perceived as unfriendly, dangerous and untrustworthy, probably due to the quality of social support and the attitude of others as a result of the disease. Thus, the variability of the psychological consequences of the disease and peculiarities of individual responses to the stress is most likely related not to the effectiveness of the treatment (all women in these sample have successfully completed the treatment), but rather to the personal and cognitive characteristics of patients, their basic beliefs and conceptions.

Eugenia dysenterica DC is a native species from the Cerrado biome and can be found in several states of Brazil. This study evaluated the chemical composition, antimicrobial and antioxidant activities from the essential oils of a population collected in São Paulo state. Essential oils were obtained by conventional means, and their compositions were analyzed by GC-MS. Screening assays for antimicrobial activity were carried out by the microdilution method and the antioxidant potential was assessed by the DPPH scavenging method. The GC-MS analysis indicated that 52.63% of the essential oil is composed by oxygenated sesquiterpenes and the major compound is (-)-elema-1,3,11(13)-trien-12-ol (24.86%). The antimicrobial assay indicated MIC 42.1 µg/mL for S. aureus and MIC > 10000 µg/mL for the other tested microorganisms, Gram negative bacteria and fungi. The oil showed an IC50 of 5.4±0.632 mg/mL for in the DPPH assay. The essential oil had a different chemical composition from previous studies. The essential oil did not present a potent antioxidant activity. However, it can be considered a promising antimicrobial agent against S. aureus.

The objective of this study is first, to investigate the level of heavy metals in soils from Agbogbloshie e-waste processing site (AEPS), the degree at which these heavy metals contaminate the area and finally, to assess the carcinogenic and non-carcinogenic health risk of heavy metals on workers and residents in around the AEPS. 132 soil samples were collected from the study area and the samples analyzed for Ba, Cd, Co, Cr, Cu, Hg, Ni, Pb and Zn heavy metals after appropriate preparations were made. Results of the analysis showed mean concentrations of Cd, Cr and Ni considered as carcinogenic were lower than permissible levels of Dutch and Canadian soil standards. Mean concentrations however of Cu, Pb and Zn were between 100% and 500% higher than the permissible levels. Assessment of the degree of Contamination indicated Ni<Ba<Co<Cr<Zn<Hg<Cu<Cd<Pb in an increasing order as contributing to the degree of contamination with according to the degree of contamination index the burning, dismantling, residential and commercial considered as very highly contaminated. The health risk analysis of individual heavy metals in soil indicated non-carcinogenic risk of Cr, Hg and Pb with hazard index above the safe level of 1 in the burning and dismantling areas and as such could trigger neurological and developmental disorders in children less than six (6) years.
Routes to Knowledge
Authors: Howley Sue
Published: December 2018

The Wider Information and Library Issues Project (WILIP) has now reported and is being followed-up. Many of the recommended actions will be implemented via the next, strategic stage -"Routes to Knowledge"- which seeks to re-position libraries in the Knowledge Society and develop capacity so their potential can be realised. Routes to Knowledge will engage with the library and information world to produce an Action Plan by March 2005. Actions will fall under headings such as user need, strategic framework, advocacy, network development, access, funding, workforce, information literacy and knowledge management. The relevance of these activities to research (and vice-versa) is discussed.
Practitioner research in libraries: a cross-sectoral comparison
Authors: McNicol Sarah
Published: December 2018

Even when research conducted in public library authorities does not have a major impact on policy, it can be crucial for service development. In Spring 2003, the Centre for Information Research (CIRT) at the University of Central England carried out a series of surveys of public, academic, health, school and special libraries in the British Isles in order to obtain up-to-date information about the research issues of particular interest to staff. This indicated that there is significant interest in research, even among those librarians who are not heavily involved in research activity personally. There were a number of common themes which cut across the different library sectors, including ICT, user needs, accommodation, collections, funding, staffing and co-operation. This suggests that, while sector-specific research is necessary in some areas, in others, cross-sectoral research may help library staff to address the common problems they all face.
Your Choice Books
Authors: Molyneux Wendy
Published: December 2018

During the summer of 2003, a three-month trial

project, Your Choice Books, was undertaken on behalf of

Warrington Library, Museum and Archives Service. A

selection of existing library stock was relocated to the

local YMCA, which is frequented by homeless people,

in an attempt to combat social exclusion. Basic

questionnaires were distributed to users of the YMCA

and to members of library staff. This resulted in

qualitative data determining interest in the programme

from a sample of YMCA visitors and challenged staff to

consider their social conscience with regards to those

disadvantaged by homelessness. Quantitative data was

obtained by tabulating responses using the statistical

analysis package SPSS.The findings revealed this to be a

successful project which, after careful consideration

and discussion, is to continue indefinitely.
An analysis of skills and qualities required by LIS employers 2004-2005
Authors: Younger Paula
Published: December 2018

Between April 2004 and March 2005 data was collated from 1,000 LIS vacancies advertised in CILIP Gazette.The wording in the advertisements was analysed and a record made of skills requested. Skills were then grouped into the following areas: specialist library skills; transferable skills relating to management; general transferable skills - customer facing; general transferable skills - non-customer facing; working

patterns and availability; and personal characteristics. Skills are analysed across the whole sample and grouped by larger sector, e.g. schools, FE/HE.The skills requested are also analysed by approximate level of post, ranging from library assistant to director and above. A brief attempt is also made to put the current skills situation into context in the light of the imminent retirement of many 'baby boomer' librarians. Some

trends are observed, and some of the implications for both applicants and employers are also outlined.
The importance of evaluation and evidence-based skills to improving service delivery
Authors: McNicol Sarah
Published: December 2018

The overall aim of the MLA-WM funded Developing Evaluation and Evidence-based Skills and Approaches to Service Delivery project is to improve the evaluation skills of staff within the museums, libraries and archives sectors and the focus of the project will be on evaluation of service provision. The partners in this project include museums, academic libraries and their archives, public libraries and their archives and health libraries. The first stage of the project, which is reported here, was to carry out an investigation of needs in terms of staff skills, focusing on evaluation, within the sector. The findings of this investigation will be used to inform the development of an approach to training which will be delivered in early 2006. The findings suggest that museums, archives and libraries need to streamline existing data collection exercises; dramatically improver the organisation and management of evaluation activities; and make stronger

links between evaluation and service development.
Combining research with training: results of research on the Internet training needs of community library staff using a one-day course.
Authors: Kendall Margaret
Published: December 2018

This article reports on a research project on the

lnternet training needs of public library staff in the

Greater Manchester region. The methods used were

built around six repeat sessions of a one-day course.

The course was a positive experience for participants

and provided quantitative and qualitative data. The

findings show that the research methods were highly

effective, and that an interest in the facilities of the'

lnternet quickly develops if staff are guided to material

directly relevant to their work. With the forth-coming

investment in ICT training, the methods could be

replicated to assess their impact.

A personal reflection on researching and writing my dissertation: "The effect of homelessness on information access, identity formation and social interaction".
Authors: Muggleton Thomas
Published: December 2018

This is a brief account of research undertaken for a dissertation, The effect of homelessness on information access, identity formation and social interaction, submitted to the University of Strathclyde in 2010 for the degree of M.Sc. Information and Library Studies. The dissertation aimed to add to the information science literature on homelessness, which often focuses on practical information needs, by considering access to information sources – specifically newspapers, television, radio, books and the internet – that may affect ‘higher-level’ needs. The findings contradicted initial expectations regarding the extent to which homelessness would restrict access to these information sources, but the decision to address higher-level information needs proved well-founded, since participants clearly pursued these alongside more basic physiological needs. The research has implications for the provision of information and services within both organisations serving the homeless and public libraries. This paper presents the research and its findings from a personal perspective.
