The recent reclassification of a follicular variant of papillary thyroid carcinoma (FVPTC), subset as noninvasive follicular thyroid neoplasm with papillary-like nuclear features (NIFTP), aims to avoid overtreatment of patients with an indolent lesion. The diagnosis of NIFTP has recently been revisited using more rigid criteria. This study presents histological and molecular findings and a long clinical follow-up of 94 FVPTC, 40 cases of follicular adenoma (FTA) and 22 cases of follicular carcinoma (FTC) that were classified before the advent of the NIFTP reclassification. All slides were reviewed using these rigid criteria and analysis of numerous sections of paraffin blocks and reclassified as 7 NIFTPs, 2 EFVPTCs, 29 infiltrative FVPTC (IFVPTCs), 57 invasive EFVPTC (I-EFVPTCs), 39 FTAs and 22 FTCs. Remarkably, EFVPTC and NIFTP patients were all free of disease at the end of follow-up and showed no BRAF mutation. Only one NIFTP sample harbored mutations, an NRAS Q61R. PAX8/PPARG fusion was found in I-EFVPTCs and FTC. Although additional studies are needed to identify a specific molecular profile to aid in the diagnosis of lesions with borderline morphological characteristics, we confirmed that the BRAF V600E mutation is an important tool to exclude the diagnosis of NIFTP. We also show that rigorous histopathological criteria should be strongly followed to avoid missing lesions in which more aggressive behavior is present, mainly via the analysis of capsule or vascular invasion and the presence of papillary structures.
Crítica, dogmatismo y educación
Authors: Herrera Díaz Jhobana , Ceballos Melguizo Ramiro
Published: October 2019

La crítica como actitud tiene el significado de actividad triplemente orientada: hacia lo cognoscitivo, en términos de actitud escéptica; hacia lo político es actitud de rebeldía ante la opresión y la arbitrariedad del mando; en el orden de la vida religiosa tiene el sentido de actitud auténtica, por oposición a la adopción supersticiosa e hipócrita de cara a lo sagrado. El concepto de dogmatismo se usa para englobar no solo la actividad mental de corte teórico, opuesta a la crítica, sino también las actitudes similarmente no críticas en los órdenes de lo práctico. En el presente escrito buscamos un acercamiento al sentido de la crítica como actitud, a la genealogía del dogmatismo y a los fines de la educación frente al ideal de formación en la crítica así entendida.

Authors: González Gil Marta Elena , Quiroz Posada Ruth Elena
Published: October 2019

Este artículo presenta los resultados de investigación, desde una perspectiva interpretativa del proyecto “El seminario de práctica pedagógica. Un espacio para la formación ciudadana en la universidad”, cuyo objetivo principal fue el análisis del seminario de práctica pedagógica desde la dimensión política, y el desarrollo de un proceso oportuno y eficaz en la formación ciudadana de las estudiantes de licenciatura en educación infantil. La metodología se inscribió en el paradigma cualitativo con un enfoque interpretativo siguiendo la línea de los estudios etnográficos, y se concretó desde el análisis de los discursos que, sobre la dimensión política, tenían los actores de la práctica pedagógica. Los resultados evidenciaron que la dimensión política de la formación ciudadana es concebida desde el punto de vista de la democracia representativa y se perfila como un saber en construcción, no cotidiano para estudiantes y profesores. El seminario de práctica se visibilizó como un espacio rico en posibilidades de crítica y debate, que está siendo subutilizado al limitarse a funciones técnicas mediante la orientación de acciones prácticas.
Assessing the Quality Measure for Follow-up Care After Children’s Psychiatric Hospitalizations
Authors: Blackburn Justin , Sharma Pradeep , Corvey Kathryn , Morrisey Michael A. , Menachemi Nir , Sen Bisakha , Caldwell Cathy , Becker David
Published: November 2019

OBJECTIVES:

Medicaid and Children’s Health Insurance Program plans publicly report quality measures, including follow-up care after psychiatric hospitalization. We aimed to understand failure to meet this measure, including measurement definitions and enrollee characteristics, while investigating how follow-up affects subsequent psychiatric hospitalizations and emergency department (ED) visits.

METHODS:

Administrative data representing Alabama’s Children’s Health Insurance Program from 2013 to 2016 were used to identify qualifying psychiatric hospitalizations and follow-up care with a mental health provider within 7 to 30 days of discharge. Using relaxed measure definitions, follow-up care was extended to include visits at 45 to 60 days and visits to a primary care provider. Logit regressions estimated enrollee characteristics associated with follow-up care and, separately, the likelihood of subsequent psychiatric hospitalizations and/or ED visits within 30, 60, and 120 days.

RESULTS:

We observed 1072 psychiatric hospitalizations during the study period. Of these, 356 (33.2%) received follow-up within 7 days and 566 (52.8%) received it within 30 days. Relaxed measure definitions captured minimal additional follow-up visits. The likelihood of follow-up was lower for both 7 days (−18 percentage points; 95% confidence interval [CI] −26 to −10 percentage points) and 30 days (−26 percentage points; 95% CI −35 to −17 percentage points) regarding hospitalization stays of ≥8 days. Meeting the measure reduced the likelihood of subsequent psychiatric hospitalizations within 60 days by 3 percentage points (95% CI −6 to −1 percentage point).

CONCLUSIONS:

Among children, receipt of timely follow-up care after a psychiatric hospitalization is low and not sensitive to measurement definitions. Follow-up care may reduce the need for future psychiatric hospitalizations and/or ED visits.

Published: October 2019

Um dos principais desperdícios destacados pela filosofia Lean Manufacturing é a movimentação desnecessária de pessoas, matéria-prima, ferramentas e/ou produtos entre os processos de produção. Comumente, é uma atividade que não agrega valor ao produto, afeta o desempenho operacional e provoca fadiga, falta de concentração e aumenta os esforços físicos dos colaboradores. O objetivo do trabalho é descrever os resultados alcançados com a aplicação do Programa 5S e Diagrama Espaguete em um evento Kaizen em uma pequena empresa que fabrica vassouras de garrafa PET. Entre os resultados alcançados se destacam as mudanças no layout da indústria e a implantação dos princípios do Programa 5S que terminaram reduzindo a movimentação dos colaboradores e aumentaram o nível de satisfação com relação ao ambiente de trabalho.

Authors: Lopes Priscila , Nobre Juliana Nogueira Pontes , Niquini Claudia Mara
Published: October 2019

O objetivo deste estudo foi analisar a presença da ginástica enquanto conteúdo programático no processo avaliativo para professores de Educação Física de institutos federais do Estado de Minas Gerais. Por meio de uma análise documental, verificamos que dos 19 editais publicados, apenas cinco citam a ginástica como tema das provas objetivas, dissertativas e/ou de desempenho didático. Quando indicada, tornou-se perceptível as limitações frente ao universo gímnico, prevalecendo ainda os conteúdos esportivos tradicionalistas. Desse modo, consideramos importante a equidade frente aos conteúdos específicos deste campo de conhecimento, sobretudo, em processos que definem e agregam um perfil profissional.
Dimensões cognitivas expressadas por professoras durante uma aula investigativa de Química
Authors: Rovay Rafael Pasini , Locatelli Solange Wagner
Published: October 2019

Abordagens que repensam as aulas tradicionais em Ciências são importantes na construção do conhecimento e aprendizagem dos alunos. Essa pesquisa se insere num contexto acerca de um curso de extensão realizado na Universidade Federal do ABC, com a participação de 14 professores da educação básica, sendo a maioria da rede pública e em formação continuada. O objetivo principal era investigar se uma aula investigativa poderia propiciar a manifestação de dimensões cognitivas. Os resultados indicaram que a atividade investigativa possibilitou a mobilização de diversas dimensões cognitivas (88% dos turnos de falas). Embora dimensões cognitivas de alta e baixa ordem foram observadas, a última teve maior prevalência. Pode-se também concluir que aulas em diferentes perspectivas são importantes, uma vez que mobilizam algumas dimensões cognitivas diferentes, o que indicaria a aula investigativa dentro das diversas estratégias a serem utilizadas e não a única. Finalmente, na aula investigativa observada, houve o aparecimento de muitos turnos da categoria hipótese, o que é altamente desejável no ensino de Ciências, uma vez que pode favorecer o rompimento de uma visão dogmática da mesma e ainda, possibilitando a reconstrução de ideias.

Authors: Pallett Ken
Published: October 2019

This Technical Seminar was the third in a series organised jointly by BCPC and the Farmers Club, explaining the science, benefits, drawbacks and regulatory issues surrounding new breeding technology (NBT). Overall, the author left the seminar with mixed feelings. He felt optimistic
that NBTs can make a difference in future development of new crop varieties due to the positive messages from all the speakers on the technology and its benefits. However, the scientists and the other stakeholders in agriculture need to convince the politicians and society in general, that
this technology will be critical to feeding the future world and that it can be responsibly and effectively managed so that it poses no threat to man and the environment.

Authors: Shumeiko Irina , Pasechnik Andrey
Published: October 2019

Interacting with modern technology using the Internet provides a large number of remote control mechanisms. All of them somehow work with packet data transmission, but differ from each other by algorithms of packet formation, their transmission, as well as encryption methods. Remote access tools are mechanisms for communication both locally and globally (on the Internet). The purpose of this article is to develop a secure Protocol for “smart home” remote control technology. In the course of the study, a method was developed to control the devices of the “Internet of things” using the channel of information transmission in the form of instant messaging system on the Internet. The result of this work is a developed mechanism for secure data exchange between the client and the “smart home” server.

This Protocol is a unique solution for protecting information exchange channels in the field of “Internet of things” devices, as well as the whole concept of “smart home”. The implementation of the tasks is fully achieved, and this Protocol can be used in real conditions. The relevance of protecting information in “smart homes” is a fundamental point in developing this technology.

Developing this Protocol allows you to bring the information security of homes to a new level. The project can be used in mass use, and the safe mechanism can become an integral part in the homes of the future.
Modeling and utilization of laurel leaves as a biomass source for the removal of zinc and copper
Authors: GUMUS Dilek , GUMUS Fatih
Published: October 2019

One of the most
important non-timber forest products in Turkey, medicinal and aromatic plants,
especially in the last century have become important socio-economic values. The
biosorbent used in this study was prepared from Laurus nobilis L. leaves (LNL). The effects of biosorbent dosage, biosorption time, solution pH, initial
zinc and copper ions concentration, humic acid or ionic strength or competitive
effects on the biosorption of copper and zinc by LNL were investigated. The LNL biomass was characterized using SEM and FT-IR
spectrum. The linearized and non-linearized isotherm models
were compared and discussed. Zn(II) and
Cu(II) biosorption fitted better in the Temkin equation and Pseudo
second-order kinetic model successfully
described the biomass behaviors of both heavy metals. Additionally, a single-stage batch bioreactor system
for heavy metal biosorption based on the best fit non-linear isotherm equation
also has been presented. It was found that
heavy metal removal efficiencies were affected by competitive biosorption studies. Finally, these
studies showed that the LNL can be used as an inexpensive and abundant
biosorbent for removing zinc and copper ions from contaminated waters.

Authors: Szeinbaum Nadia , Johnson Abbigail , Swofford Thomas
Published: October 2019

This protocol describes the step to assemble your own Planetary Domino. We designed this at Georgia Tech for an Astrobiology outreach event called "An Evening of Wonder", which we organized as part of AbGradCon2018. The goal of this activity was to introduce how microorganisms drive many geochemical cycles and how they are interconnected. Each domino piece corresponds to a bacerial functional role/"trophic" role (i.e., aerobic heterotrophs, anaerobic metal reducers, etc.) contains substrates on one side and products on the other. The idea is to find how they can be connected, like pieces of a domino.
Evokers of the Divine Message: Mysticism of American Transcendentalism in Emerson’s “Nature” and the Mystic Thought in Rumi’s Masnavi
Authors: Ansari Amirali , Jahantigh Hossein
Published: October 2019

Mysticism, religion and mankind’s relationship with an all-absolute deity has been a prominent part of the human experience throughout history. Poets such as Emerson and Rumi were similarly concerned with this question in creating their works. Although Rumi’s thought stems from the Quran and Emerson’s manifestation of Nature takes roots in the ancient eastern philosophies such as Buddhism, their works seem to share some explicit characteristics. Rumi (1207-1273) lived most of his life in Konya and Khorasan and Emerson (1803-1882) lived in America, but their immense geographic and temporal distances did not surpass their analogous attitudes as mystics. The biggest and the most obvious affinity between these mystic thoughts is believing in Monism as a spiritual practice. Although Emerson read and was influenced by classical Persian poetry of Hafiz and Sa’di, there is no evidence suggesting that he was familiar with Rumi’s poetry. Moreover, thematic analogies between Rumi’s Masnavi and Emerson’s essay on Nature result in a shared ideology which includes themes varying from monism, kashf or unveiling, attitudes towards language and the uninitiated. These concepts, observed in both works, point us toward the realization of universal features of mysticism.

Published: October 2019

The results of theoretical and experimental studies of the acidity of donor-acceptor complexes of boric acid with polyols – glycerol and sorbitol, which were used in the development of oil-displacing compositions, are presented. A model of donor-acceptor acid-base equilibria in coordinating polyol solvents has been created, due to which the constants of polyolboric acids formation and ionization were determined by pH-meter and electrical conductivity methods. The obtained constant values were used to calculate the compositions buffer capacity. Due to the using a mixture of polyolboric acids in the compositions at various ratios it was possible to regulate the range of the buffer action
La idea de contragobernanza. Elementos para una teoría crítica del gobierno
Authors: Quiñones Páez Julio Rafael
Published: October 2019

El presente artículo defiende la hipótesis de la interacción entre gobierno y acción política antisistémica como respuesta a la pregunta de cuál es el eje de una teoría crítica de la cuestión gubernativa. Desde el punto de vista metodológico, se procede aplicando tal hipótesis al análisis de lo concreto, esto es, de la gobernanza y sus formas de coordinación sociopolítica: gobierno jerárquico, autogobierno y cogobierno. El resultado es la noción de contragobernanza, la cual recoge dichas formas, pero las reinterpreta en perspectiva antisistémica, así: la gobernanza como el orden que utiliza indistintamente la jerarquía, la autopoiesis y las redes asimétricas con el fin de someter la actividad humana a la ley capitalista del valor.
Neoconservadurismo versus populismo socialdemócrata. Una comparación de los discursos anticorrupción de Iván Duque y Gustavo Petro en la segunda vuelta presidencial de 2018
Authors: Kajsiu Blendi , Tamayo Grisales Yenifer
Published: October 2019

El argumento central de este artículo es que los discursos anticorrupción de los entonces candidatos presidenciales Iván Duque y Gustavo Petro durante la campaña electoral de 2018 reflejan sus respectivas ideologías: neoconservadurismo y populismo socialdemócrata, respectivamente. Se analizan los discursos durante la campaña presidencial de 2018, combinando el análisis conceptual de las ideologías desarrollado por Michael Freeden y el maco teórico de análisis discursivo de Ernesto Laclau y Chantal Mouffe. A diferencia de la gran mayoría de trabajos sobre la corrupción en Colombia esta investigación no se enfoca en evaluar las propuestas anticorrupción sino en desentrañar sus presupuestos ideológicos. Se encontró que, desde la perspectiva neoconservadora, Duque identifica la corrupción principalmente en el sector público y su propuesta anticorrupción se limita a reformar el Estado, sin cambiar las estructuras socioeconómicas del país; el discurso anticorrupción de Petro refleja su populismo socialdemócrata, donde la corrupción emerge como característica de la clase política y de un sistema socioeconómico altamente desigual en general, cuya eliminación implica la transformación de las estructuras políticas, sociales y económicas de Colombia.

Published: October 2019

The increasing growth of technology affects all aspects of life, including the system of education, and requires the implementation of a new education system. Since Electronic-learning (E-L) is a new and mutated form of education in Iran, its professional functions approach is different from that of traditional education. The present article aims to explain the concept and dimensions of professional functions in this field. Through a qualitative study, method and data source triangulation were used. To do so, the data sources were the professors, scholars, students, and graduates of this educational system in the field of medical sciences. To triangulate the methods, in-depth semi-structured interviews as well as focus groups, note-taking and reminders were used. The purposeful sampling consisted of 10 professors and scholars. Fifteen students and graduates participated in the four-session focus group discussions purposeful, and the sample consisted of 10 professors and scholars as well as seven students and graduates, and a total of 15 students and graduates were willing to participate in the focus group discussions. Inductive content analysis was used for the analysis of data. Three themes arose from the study as follows: E-learning prerequisites, E-Leaning enabling factors, and E-Learning obstacles. Each of the themes is explained along with the relevant categories and subcategories. Discovering the dimensions and elements affecting professional functions in the E-Lsystem of medical sciences, this study provided documented meanings and dimensions of this phenomenon beyond the conventional sense. These dimensions can have direct or indirect impacts on professional functions in this field.

Authors: COELHO JUNIOR Francisco Antonio , BOTELHO Erica De Aguiar , REGO Mariana Carolina Barbosa , FAIAD Cristiane , RAMOS Wilsa Maria
Published: October 2019

The purpose of this study was twofold. First, it aimed to determine whether there are differences in Brazilian students’ attitudes towards online learning compared to their purpose in seeking for this modality and the localization of the pole where they received face-to-face support. Second, it aimed to identify if Brazilian students’ attitudes towards online learning predict their self-perception of performance in the course. A correlational and explanatory quantitative approach was taken through a survey. Data was collected from 593 undergraduate students enrolled in the online public administration course offered by different Brazilian universities. Descriptive statistics, Pearson correlations, group comparison (ANOVA) and multiple linear regression were employed for data analysis. Findings revealed that there are differences between students’ attitudes compared to their purpose in seeking for online courses and compared to the localization of the pole where they received face-to-face support. Statistically significant differences were found for Favorable personnel and dispositional aspects (PDA), Negative affects (NA) and Internalization and habituation of use (IHU) attitude dimensions. Furthermore, the study identified predictors of students’ self-perception of performance in online courses corresponding to how much students perceive they are accustomed to and capable of taking an online course, represented by the attitude dimension IHU. Results showed significant positive relationship between two attitude dimensions (PDA and PC) and the dimension IHU. In addition, significant negative relationship was found between the biographical variable family income and the dimension IHU. The model explains 40% of the variance of IHU in which PDA represents the strongest predictor.
Uwarunkowania szans wyborczych ubiegających się o reelekcję wójtów i burmistrzów w wyborach w 2014 roku
Authors: Bartnicki Sławomir
Published: October 2019

Celem analizy było określenie wpływu kwantyfikowalnych cech charakteryzujących kandydatów i gminy (zmienne niezależne) na szanse reelekcji wójtów i burmistrzów w wyborach konkurencyjnych rozgrywanych w regulaminowym terminie w 2014 roku (zmienna zależna). Przyjęto, że szanse reelekcji wójtów i burmistrzów w wyborach w 2014 roku warunkował zestaw wybranych 15 zmiennych objaśniających, takich jak m.in.: staż na stanowisku, posiadanie większości w radzie gminy z wyborów poprzednich, wydatki majątkowe inwestycyjne per capita w roku wyborczym. Zmienne niezależne pochodzą głównie ze źródeł statystyki publicznej (np.: GUS, PKW) i są dobierane na podstawie wskazań literatury przedmiotu i wniosków z badania terenowego. Do weryfikacji założeń wykorzystano regresję logistyczną zastosowaną na próbie dobieranej spośród wszystkich gmin poza miastami na prawach powiatu, równoważącej proporcję porażek i sukcesów wyborczych w 2014 roku. Wyniki analizy sugerują między innymi, że szanse ponownego wyboru w 2014 roku wzrastały w przypadku: rządzenia od 2010 roku, a nie dłużej, posiadania większości w radzie gminy według stanu formalnego z wyborów poprzednich czy wyższego wydatkowania inwestycyjnego w roku wyborczym. Szanse reelekcji zmniejszały się z kolei wraz ze wzrostem między innymi: konkurencji wyborczej czy udziału wydatków na pomoc społeczną w ogólnej puli wydatków gmin w roku wyborczym.
System polityczny Szwajcarii – uwarunkowania i główne instytucje
Authors: Matyja Mirosław
Published: October 2019

Uchwalenie Konstytucji Federalnej w 1848 roku było istotne dla kształtowania systemu politycznego Szwajcarii. Współczesne brzmienie Konstytucji Federalnej Konfederacji Szwajcarskiej uchwalono w 1999 roku. Obecnie system tego kraju można określić mianem parlamentarno komitetowego (system konwentu). Ze względu jednak na jego specyfikę, objawiającą się w głównie w dużej roli kantonów, jest określany także jako parlamentarno-kantonalny. Artykuł podzielono na sześć części: uwarunkowania historyczne i instytucjonalne, podziały socjopolityczne, założenia i funkcjonowanie szwajcarskiego federalizmu, system partyjny i „formuła magiczna”, główne instytucje ustrojowe oraz instrumenty i procedury. W badaniach zastosowano podejście instytucjonalno-prawne, analizę systemową oraz analizę historyczną. W toku badań wykazano, że istotnym elementem systemu jest duża niezależność i samodzielność kantonów, a także gmin. Czynnikiem determinującym kształt partii politycznych i podział socjopolityczny Szwajcarii jest przede wszystkim jej wielokulturowość. Zasadniczymi instrumentami demokratycznymi w tym państwie są: referendum, inicjatywa ludowa, zgromadzenie ludowe.
L'hypallage ou le déplacement d'attribution dans le roman de Jerzy Andrzejewski "Wielki Tydzień" et dans sa traduction française
Authors: Kulczyńska Agnieszka
Published: October 2019

The paper examines some linguistic aspects of Jerzy Andrzejewski's novel "Wielki Tydzień", and compares them with the French version of the text. It focuses on the figure of hypallage, used recurrently by Andrzejewski. Usually defined as a transferred epithet, hypallage can also be conceived of as a partly fixed expression whose elements have regainded – in a specific context – their combinatorial freedom. The paper describes the different functions of this type of transfer in the Polish original. It also examines the attitude adopted by the French translator regarding these unusual co-occurrences.

Actualisation du sens des séquences figées en contexte
Authors: Krzyżanowska Anna
Published: October 2019

The article aims to show the role of the context and the situation of speaking (communication situation) in the process of updating the meaning of phraseological units (fixed expressions). It has been observed that in communication, disambiguation usually takes place by means of context. On the other hand, it turned out that the context itself can be a source of ambiguity. The results obtained in this short study seem to confirm the claim that the update is essentially a modal process, and the semantic coherence results from the interweaving of language, pragmatic, socio-cultural and cognitive constraints.
« Manuel de survie à l’usage des incapables » de Thomas Gunzig : une dystopie orwellienne à la belge
Authors: Ślusarska Alicja
Published: October 2019

As George Orwell did with 1984, Thomas Gunzig gives us in his misleading novel a dystopian vision of the world, a distorted reflection of our everyday life, an acid pamphlet of an ultra-materialistic society. The Belgian writer fits his novel in that of George Orwell according to his own referents. The purpose of this paper is therefore to identify links of filiation, structural and thematic analogies with the Orwelian text while revealing the specificity of the Belgian novel.
Fondements socio-politiques et économiques de la tradition satirique

Published: October 2019

Satire is a literary genre with esthetic value determined by laughter. Every kind of laughter is specific for different periods of economic and social development. The forms of material production underlie the perception of the comic. Satirical traditions are intrinsic to national ideological systems. Satire commits seditious attacks against social ideologies. It influences the politics and the politics influences the satire which is only possible with a certain level of sociopolitical development of a society. Satirical tradition can be formed and established only at conditions of democratic political tradition, otherwise it takes perverted shapes.

The study explores how Romain Gary reviews and rejects various moral attitudes in his novel The Roots of Heaven. His later novel The Kites sheds a new light at this novel from 1956. A cross reading of both novels allows to show why, according to Gary, ideologies are degenerating and what values remain unchanged.
Politiques narratives d’Éric Chevillard : pour une littérature littéraire
Authors: Maziarczyk Anna
Published: October 2019

Éric Chevillard, associated mainly with ludic literature, which plays with the word and deconstructs novelistic conventions, in his own way inscribes himself in the tradition of engaged literature. By means of atypical narration and singular style he fights against not so much social, political or economic injustice as stereotypical literature in all its triviality and formulaicity. Relying on selected theories of narrative strategies characteristic of novels and militant texts, the present paper analyses Démolir Nisard, one of Chevillard’s most confrontational texts, and thus discusses modalities and assumptions of the work inspired by the overtly political genre – the pamphlet.
Miejsce i rola tzw. urzędów mieszanych w administracji gubernialnej Królestwa Polskiego po powstaniu styczniowym

The Russian model of supervision and control of administration was introduced in the Kingdom of Poland concurrently with the reorganisation of the governorate and district administration after the January Uprising. The supervisory functions were taken over by the newly established bodies of the governorate and district administration of individual sectors of ministerial administration, for which the ministers residing in St. Petersburg were the final decisive body. On the other hand, the abolition of the Council of State of the Kingdom of Poland in 1867 entailed the final liquidation of the administrative justice system based on the French model, which had operated on these lands since the times of the Duchy of Warsaw. Its tasks were taken over by so-called “mixed offices” which filled the resulting gap only partially. Unlike administrative courts, these offices formed an integral part of the governorate administration, and their clerical staff as well as the bureaucratic method of operation compromised their judicial independence. Moreover, the procedure for dispute resolution in these offices had the character of an intra-administrative procedure which did not employ the concept of a party, and its discretionary course excluded the possibility of applying the principles of adversarial process, openness to the public or dispositiveness. The peculiarity of “mixed offices” in the Kingdom of Poland, resulting solely from political reasons, was the reduction of their staffing only to the bureaucratic element and full subordination of their substantive and formal side of the proceedings to the governorate authorities. As a result, the judicial activity of “mixed offices” in administrative matters in the Kingdom of Poland was much more dependent on the current policies of the tsarist authorities represented and supervised directly by the governors than in the interior governorates of the Empire. The combination of these factors with the discretionary rules of intra-ministerial proceedings applied in these offices deprived inhabitants of the Kingdom of Poland of a guarantee of impartial defence of their rights and interests in disputes with the administration that was foreign and distrustful to them.

The paper examines the basic schemes, features and advantages of magnetic abrasive machining. In this work we provide information on working environments for magnetic abrasive machining, compositions of ferro-abrasive powders and roughness of the surfaces achieved by their application; the process of forming the working layer is also analyzed. A classification of magnetic abrasive machining schemes according to the type of the magnetic inductor used, as well as their advantages and disadvantages are discussed. It is shown that the basic scheme of magnetic abrasive machining, the kind and dispersion of the abrasive medium, are assigned depending on the specific machining conditions and the requirements for the surface layer condition, whereas the choice of the type of the magnetic inductor is not so obvious, since each of the types has its advantages and disadvantages. An expert assessment procedure in choosing an acceptable magnetic-inductor scheme from a number of alternatives for use in magnetic abrasive machining is presented. The method of expert assessment was tested drawing on the example of the work of a group of experts formed by representatives of science and industry. It is shown that the direct-current electromagnetic inductor scheme is a rational scheme of magnetic abrasive machining according to the type of inductor used. This is due to the simplicity of process control and the expansion of technological capabilities, applicability for a wide range of problems solved by magnetic abrasive machining. Permanent-magnet magnetic abrasive schemes can be considered as an alternative to permanent-magnet ones.

Despite the fact that aviation gas turbine engines (GTE) have reached a high degree of sophistication, requirements for the improvement of their efficiency are constantly increasing. Reduction of specific fuel consumption and specific weight of the engine unit makes it possible to improve aircraft performance. One of the effective means of reducing specific fuel consumption and obtaining high thermal efficiency of a gas turbine engine is the use of heat recovery, so the interest in it holds throughout the period of development of gas turbine engines. However, the use of heat recovery in aircraft gas turbine engines is faced with a contradiction: on the one hand, heat recovery allows reducing specific fuel consumption, but, on the other hand, it increases the weight of the power plant due to the presence of a heat exchanger. Moreover, with the increase in the degree of regeneration, specific fuel consumption decreases, whereas the mass of the power plant increases.To obtain the desired effect, it is necessary to optimize simultaneously both the parameters of the engine work process and the degree of regeneration of the heat exchanger according to the criteria of evaluating the engine unit in the aircraft system. For this purpose, it is necessary to have a mathematical model for estimating the weight of a highly efficient aircraft heat exchanger. The article presents a developed mathematical model for calculating the weight of a compact plate heat exchanger used to increase the efficiency of a gas turbine engine due to the heating of compressed air entering the combustion chamber by the hot gas that enters the combustion chamber from behind the turbine. We chose a rational pattern of relative motion of the working media in the heat exchanger, the optimal type of plate-type heat transfer surface in terms of minimizing the weight of the heat exchanger and the hydraulic losses in the air and gas ducts. For the selected surface type, the dependence of the specific weight of the heat exchanger on the degree of regeneration is determined for different nozzle exhaust velocities on the basis of a computational algorithm. To assess the reliability of the obtained model, comparative analysis of the effect of the degree of regeneration on the specific weight of the heat exchanger was carried out, based on the comparison of the results of calculations for the developed model with the data of other authors and with the data for the produced regenerators.

Snorkeler behaviors which are not in accordance to snorkeling guidelines are harmful to the coral reefs ecosystem. This research aims to describe the behavior patterns of visitors when they were snorkeling, and classifying snorkeler behavior according to the potential hazard which occur in the coral reefs’ ecosystem in the Kepulauan Seribu Marine National Park. Field observations shown that behavior of visitors when they were snorkeling has the same patterns that are harmful for coral reefs ecosystem when they took photo in underwater and interact with the marine biota. The act to feed fish, stepping or stand up on coral reefs, and hold coral reefs are shown by most of the snorkelers when they were snorkeling in the study location. Grouping of snorkeler behavior shown that more than part of snorkeler respondents had characteristics and perceptions that were at high risk of the possibility of non-environmentally friendly actions. Based on the risk grading matrix of snorkeler behavior, the quantity of respondents who have the potential to pose a risk behavior to the coral reef ecosystem showed 55.56% snorkeler get into a high risk category, 33.33% in the middle risk category, and 11.11% on the low risk category.That’s mean that snorkeler behavior was harmful for coral reefs ecosystem.
