A novel device for real-time measurement and manipulation of licking behavior in head-fixed mice
Authors: Williams Brice , Speed Anderson , Haider Bilal 
Published: September 2018

The mouse has become an influential model system for investigating the mammalian nervous system. Technologies in mice enable recording and manipulation of neural circuits during tasks where they respond to sensory stimuli by licking for liquid rewards. Precise monitoring of licking during these tasks provides an accessible metric of sensory-motor processing, particularly when combined with simultaneous neural recordings. There are several challenges in designing and implementing lick detectors during head-fixed neurophysiological experiments in mice. First, mice are small, and licking behaviors are easily perturbed or biased by large sensors. Second, neural recordings during licking are highly sensitive to electrical contact artifacts. Third, submillisecond lick detection latencies are required to generate control signals that manipulate neural activity at appropriate time scales. Here we designed, characterized, and implemented a contactless dual-port device that precisely measures directional licking in head-fixed mice performing visual behavior. We first determined the optimal characteristics of our detector through design iteration and then quantified device performance under ideal conditions. We then tested performance during head-fixed mouse behavior with simultaneous neural recordings in vivo. We finally demonstrate our device’s ability to detect directional licks and generate appropriate control signals in real time to rapidly suppress licking behavior via closed-loop inhibition of neural activity. Our dual-port detector is cost effective and easily replicable, and it should enable a wide variety of applications probing the neural circuit basis of sensory perception, motor action, and learning in normal and transgenic mouse models. NEW & NOTEWORTHY Mice readily learn tasks in which they respond to sensory cues by licking for liquid rewards; tasks that involve multiple licking responses allow study of neural circuits underlying decision making and sensory-motor integration. Here we design, characterize, and implement a novel dual-port lick detector that precisely measures directional licking in head-fixed mice performing visual behavior, enabling simultaneous neural recording and closed-loop manipulation of licking.

Authors: Burhanuddin - , Martosewojo Sularto , Hutomo Malikusworo 
Published: September 2018

The length compositions of Stolephorus heterolobus, Stolephorus insularis and Stolephorus pseudoheterolobus were observed. S. heterolobus ranged from 25 to 71 mm., S. insularis from 27 to 75 mm and S. pseudoheterolobus from 27 to 67 mm standard length. The ages of these three species were estimated. The asymptotic length of S. heterolobus was 97 mm attained at the age of 26 months, S. insularis 86 mm at 26 months and S. pseudohetorolobus 88 mm at 20 months. The highest growth rate of S. heterolobus was at the size group 30 - 80 mm standard length, that of S. insularis was at 30-50 mm, and that of S. insularis was observed to be the lowest. The stomach contents of S. heterolobus and S. pseudoheterolobus were studied tand were found that the food of these two species was more or less the same. They fed mainly on zooplankton consisting of copepods and other crustaceans.

OVERVIEW OF THE SUCCESSFUL CORAL REEF MANAGEMENT IN INDONESIA
Authors: Suharsono - 
Published: September 2018

Indonesia is the largest archipelagic country in the world, composed of 18,110 islands with a coastline of 108,900 km long, extending some 5000 km long and 2000 km wide located between Asia and Australia. Coral reefs have important meaning and value for the coastal communities in term of economic, social, and cultural conditions. About 1.5 million people are traditional fishermen who live in subsistence level and depend on their lives fully on coral reefs' resources. The Indonesian coral reef contributed 14% of the world, distributed unevenly from Sabang to Merauke with the highest concentration around Sulawesi and Maluku. The species richness and the biodiversity of the Indonesian corals amounted to 590 species belonging to 82 genera or about 80% of the currently existing coral species in the world. Monitoring program has been done from 1993 to 2010 and it shows the trend of improvement in the term of live coral cover. The condition of coral reefs in Indonesia taken from 84 locations and 1048 sites were 50.54% in excellent condition, 26.72% in good condition, 37.21% in fair condition, and 30.82% in bad condition. Improving trends in live coral cover across all project sites shows that the live coral covers has increased in all monitored sites across all project districts with average yearly live coral coverage increase is about 2-5%. The National Policy, Strategy, and Action Plan was established, with its main objective of managing the coral reef ecosystems based on the balance between conservation and utilization, and it was reflected in the Law No. 27 of 2007 concerning coastal management and small islands. The most remarkable result of the program is community awareness, namely the decrease of fishing activities shows that the destructive fishing activities in all project district are now non-existent of at a minimal level. A special text books on marine lives for elementary, secondary, and high school is the most widely adopted by local education service as a book of local content. Whereas institutional strengthening program constitutes the most difficult, energy and time consuming activities. It is due to the rivaly between the local institution and the lac of officials' and the communities' knowledge on the conservation based management principle.
Powieść „Inny” Jurija Mamlejewa wobec artystycznego poznania Fiodora Dostojewskiego
Authors: Przybysz Anna Katarzyna 
Published: September 2018

The aim of this article is to show the undeniable influence of Fyodor Dostoyevsky’s artistic method on Yuri Mamlejev’s literary works in particular in relation to his novel The Other. Relying on these determinants of fantastic realism, which for many researchers are referred to as the most significant elements of Dostoyevsky’s artistic method, we make an attempt to show that the carnival which combines the two orders in the works of the 19th century writer: the real (scientific) and the surreal (magic), makes the fantasy become an integral part of the surrounding space. Simultaneously the concept of fiction should be understood through such categories as: paradoxicality, iconicity, a word as a vessel, sleep, hallucinations, picture in picture, doppelgänger that foster deep psychological self-understanding of the entity. In the article we aim to expose some of the abovementioned categories of constructing the world of Dostoyevsky’s works and making up, as defined by the author himself “the realism of higher sense” which, in a slightly modified form, although still clearly visible, is also reflected in Mamleev’s artistic method – metaphysical realism. The main emphasis is put on the categories of sleep and doppelgänger which are the clearest examples of Yuri Vitalevich’s inspiration.

Authors: Kubecka Katarzyna 
Published: September 2018

The article is devoted to the names of music stars in Russian youth slang. The number of English borrowings, which appear in the Russian youth’s language, is growing rapidly. Russian youngsters are open for western music. The paper presents the processes of implementation of English names into Russian slang. The studied material shows how English words are transformed to adjust to Russian phonetics. The author of this paper proves that young people do not copy foreign words and phrases, but treat them as a basis for further modifications. They play with foreign words in order to adjust them to Russian phonetics and add humour which is a characteristic feature of youth slang.
Dziecko jako świadek totalitaryzmu. „Dzieci Syjonu“ a „Dzieci Gułagu“
Authors: Lichtblau Krzysztof 
Published: September 2018

The article features a comparison of two very different collections of stories. What binds these narrations is the way they present the influence of totalitarian regimes on children’s lives. Children of Zion is a set of documents selected by Henryk Grynberg concerning the fate of Jewish children evacuated from the USSR to Palestine by general Władysław Anders. Children of the Gulag is a co-operative work by Cathy Frierson and Semyon S. Vilensky. They used source documents archived by the Memorial Association (Общество Мемориал) and Return (Возвращение), a historical-literary society which was established by Wileński himself. In the article the author aimed to present the main differences between the two totalitarian systems and how the systems caused dehumanization of childhood by means of exhausting labor, starvation, separation from parents and murder. What is more, the article contains a comparison of different attitudes towards the method of presenting historical facts and individual experiences. Hence, the scope of the work lies within discourse of representation / representation discourse.
Pielewin i pustka. Rzecz o nowych horyzontach literatury
Authors: Nakoneczny Tomasz 
Published: September 2018

The prose of Victor Pelevin, one of the best-known contemporary Russian writers, is usually associated with postmodernism. Some interpreters believe, however, that the proper context for the discussion of Pelevin is not postmodernism, but the traditional Russian cultural categories. For the author of this article the more fruitful way is to search for a variety of traditional and modern sources of cultural inspiration (intertextuality), which helped to establish the new forms of communication between writer and reader in the works of Pelevin.
Оblicza kultury w słownikach lingwokulturologicznych na przykładzie Kościeja Nieśmiertelnego (Кащея «Кощея» Бессмерт¬ного)
Authors: Olechno-Wasiluk Joanna 
Published: September 2018

The article compares descriptions of a linguistic unit Kashei the Immortal in entries in two linguocultural dictionaries. The choice of the analytical material is based on the fact that in the Russian collective consciousness Kashei the Immortal functions as one of the most vivid examples of negative characters. The repelling appearance and personality of the character appear in songs, nursery rhymes and puzzles. Moreover, there stories about Kashei are passed from generation to generation. The comparison of the entry Kashei the Immortal in linguocultural dictionaries aims at determining to what extent common knowledge about the analyzed linguistic unit is present in lexicographical publications.
Герменевтические подступы к русской литературе
Authors: Szubin Roman 
Published: September 2018

The article is devoted to the search for a new space in the methodological studies on Russian literature. The author takes as its basis the method of hermeneutics of words by Vardan Hayrapetyan. Especially the basic categories such as the world man (homo mundi), the Other and its variants: the self (rus. самость), otherness (rus. дру­гость), the alien (rus. чужесть) and two triads, which postulate two types of intellectual situations. In this regard, the author identifies the concept of the hybrid man of the hero of Russian literature in which a small person is a representative of an impersonal collective personality of the world man, home, family, ideas, etc. The author demonstrates the type of a hybrid man on the example of the protagonist of the novel by Vasily Shukshin Stepan Razin.
Twórcza reinterpretacja mitów narodowych. Próba współodczytania „Trans-Atlantyku” Witolda Gombrowicza i „Małego palca Buddy” Wiktora Pielewina
Authors: Jaworski Mateusz 
Published: September 2018

The aim of this paper is to depict significant parallels between the works of Witold Gombrowicz and Viktor Pelevin within the scope of reinterpreting national myths. In their novels, Trans Atlantic and Buddha’s Little Finger, the writers seem to take account of substantial danger related to fixed, ossified forms of understanding the notions of nation and motherland. Despite visible differences in their styles both novelist stay alert to automatized relationship to any phenomenon and make attempts at provoking the reader to rethink their relationship to the abovementioned terms. The author of the present paper finds these issues crucial and very up-to-date in the post postmodern society and culture, in particular in light of the recent geopolitical changes.
W imię Boga Jedynego! (Aleksiej Warłamow „Zatopiona arka”)
Authors: Lewandowska Agnieszka 
Published: September 2018

The article is an attempt to present a religious situation described by Aleksey Varlamov in his novel Zatonuvshiy kovcheg. The spiritual life of Russians after Perestroika not only turned out to be a period of resurgence of Orthodox Christianity, but also the emergence as well as restoration of previously existing sects. Therefore, this novel amounts to a new voice of the discussion on the Russians’ spiritual life then, now and in the future. The author tries to prove that the reawakening of sects brings danger to Russian people, especially to the young generation. This paper presents an analysis of those fragments of the novel that refer to religious subjects and contain descriptions of sects (the Old Believers and the Skoptsy). Besides, spiritual leaders of these sects (Vassian and Luppo) are characterized. The insight into the history of these religious groups is provided and supplemented with Varlamov's descriptions from the novel.

Published: September 2018

Abstract
The purpose of this study was to develop a thermometry software tool for temperature monitoring during laser-induced interstitial thermotherapy (LITT). C++ programming language and several libraries including DICOM Toolkit, Grassroots DICOM library, Insight Segmentation and Registration Toolkit, Visualization Toolkit and Quasar Toolkit were used. The software’s graphical user interface creates windows displaying the temperature map and the coagulation extent in the tissue, determined by the magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) thermometry with the echo planar imaging sequence and a numerical simulation based on the radiation and heat transfer in biological tissues, respectively. The software was evaluated applying the MRI-guided LITT to ex vivo pig liver and simultaneously measuring the temperature through a fiber-optic thermometer as reference. Using the software, the temperature distribution determined by the MRI method was compared with the coagulation extent simulation. An agreement was shown between the MRI temperature map and the simulated coagulation extent. Furthermore, the MRI-based and simulated temperatures agreed with the measured one – a correlation coefficient of 0.9993 and 0.9996 was obtained, respectively. The precision of the MRI temperature amounted to 2.4°C. In conclusion, the software tool developed in the present study can be applied for monitoring and controlling the LITT procedure in ex vivo tissues.
Bessarion’s date of birth: a new assessment of the evidence
Authors: Kennedy Scott 
Published: September 2018

Abstract
The cardinal Bessarion was a foremost figure of the Italian Renaissance and late Byzantium. However, some of the details of his life are not yet securely established, especially his date of birth. Over the last century, scholars have proposed dates ranging from 1400 to 1408. In this study, I critically interrogate the two most commonly accepted dates (1400 and 1408). In the past, scholars have relied on the age requirements of canon law or the testimony of Italian observers to determine Bessarion’s age. By critically examining the validity of these two assumptions, I reprioritize the evidence, approximating the cardinal’s year of birth as 1403.
There and back again: on the influence of Psellos on the career of Mauropous
Authors: Mauche Nepheli , Roskilly Jack 
Published: September 2018

Abstract
Some aspects of the life of John Mauropous are still unclear. It is often assumed that his nomination as metropolitan bishop of Euchaita was a disguised exile from the imperial Court. However, it took him more than twenty years to come back to Constantinople after quitting his bishopric. The close analysis of the relationship between Mauropous and Psellos, another exile from Constantine Monomachos’ Court, will lead us to reconsider the conditions of the departure and the return of Mauropous. If his nomination was not the described exile, his resignation was conditioned with the willing of Psellos, who was his main support in the capital but was not as reliable friend as he seemed to.

Tinnitus suppression using electrical stimulation
Authors: Olze Heidi , Szczepek Agnieszka J. , Reich Uta , Gräbel Stefan , Uecker Florian 
Published: September 2018

Abstract
Tinnitus is a phantom sound perceived only by the affected person. Although the causes for tinnitus may be very diverse (e.g. hearing loss, cardiovascular diseases, diabetes, Meniere’s disease, otosclerosis), they all lead to pathological activation of the auditory pathway. Cochlear implants are electronic inner ear prostheses used to restore the hearing abilities of hard of hearing people. It has been noticed that the cochlear implants not only enable hearing but also reduce tinnitus that usually accompanies deafness and hearing loss. One of the likely mechanisms behind the latter phenomena is thought to be the unknown properties of electrical stimulus. This project was designed as a proof of concept for a device, which would be sending the tinnitus-suppressing electrical signal. To achieve this, the project was split into a preclinical part using experimental animals (guinea pigs) and a clinical trial part with tinnitus patients. In the preclinical part, together with Inomed Medizintechnik GmbH, we are testing the physical design and biocompatibility of anti-tinnitus implant. In the clinical part of the project, we use an electrical stimulation in the ear canal, through the eardrum (tinnitus patients), or via cochlear implant in a sample of cochlear implant patients (pre- and post-implantation). We ask the patients to mark the loudness of their tinnitus on a visual scale from 1 to 10 before, during and after routine electrical stimulation and quality of the tinnitus The results obtained during our preclinical and clinical testing as well as future plans will be presented and discussed.
Comparison of Different Training Algorithms for the Leg Extension Training with an Industrial Robot
Authors: Ketelhut Maike , Göll Fabian , Braunstein Björn , Albracht Kirsten , Abel Dirk 
Published: September 2018

Abstract
In the past, different training scenarios have been developed and implemented on robotic research platforms, but no systematic analysis and comparison have been done so far. This paper deals with the comparison of an isokinematic (motion with constant velocity) and an isotonic (motion against constant weight) training algorithm. Both algorithms are designed for a robotic research platform consisting of a 3D force plate and a high payload industrial robot, which allows leg extension training with arbitrary six-dimensional motion trajectories. In the isokinematic as well as the isotonic training algorithm, individual paths are defined i n C artesian s pace by sufficient s upport p oses. I n t he i sotonic t raining s cenario, the trajectory is adapted to the measured force as the robot should only move along the trajectory as long as the force applied by the user exceeds a minimum threshold. In the isotonic training scenario however, the robot’s acceleration is a function of the force applied by the user. To validate these findings, a simulative experiment with a simple linear trajectory is performed. For this purpose, the same force path is applied in both training scenarios. The results illustrate that the algorithms differ in the force dependent trajectory adaption.
