The Debtor’s Property Selling in the Cross-Border Insolvency Proceedings
Authors: Sproge Daiga 
Published: July 2016

Abstract
The title of this research is “The debtor’s property selling in the cross-border insolvency proceedings”. The insolvency proceeding gets the cross-border status also in case, if a debtor is an owner of the property outside of the main interests’ centre, namely, in another country. Therefore, there are many problematic cases when insolvency administrator (also called insolvency practitioner) defines the real estate in this other country and has to make a decision concerning the methods of selling the real estate in accordance with the law of the Member State in which territory the insolvency proceedings have been started. At the same time, the administrator shall provide that the property is sold in particular with regard to procedures for the realization of assets defined in the legislation of that country, where such real estate has been located. The article’s aim is to give a view of the features of the sale of the property in the insolvency proceedings and to define the possible lack and improvements in the cross-border insolvency concerning the selling of a debtor’s property. The European Parliament and the Council of the European Union has adopted Regulation (EU) 2015/848 of 20 May 2015 on Insolvency proceedings, which shall apply from 26 June 2017, with some exceptions Despite the regulation of the cross-border insolvency has been improved, the procedure of the property disposal is still incomplete in the cross-border insolvency proceedings. Within the study the following research methods are applied: the analytical method, comparative method, sociological method and descriptive method. The predicted value of the research is theoretical and also practical. The research should be useful for the insolvency proceedings administrators, the companies and the banks, other experts involved in the cross-border insolvency proceedings, as well as for students to improve their theoretical knowledge about the cross-border insolvency.
Land and Forest Management by Land Use/ Land Cover Analysis and Change Detection Using Remote Sensing and GIS
Authors: Ankana  
Published: July 2016

Abstract
Remote sensing and Geographical Information System (GIS) are the most effective tools in spatial data analysis. Natural resources like land, forest and water, these techniques have proved a valuable source of information generation as well as in the management and planning purposes. This study aims to suggest possible land and forest management strategies in Chakia tahsil based on land use and land cover analysis and the changing pattern observed during the last ten years. The population of Chakia tahsil is mainly rural in nature. The study has revealed that the northern part of the region, which offers for the settlement and all the agricultural practices constitutes nearly 23.48% and is a dead level plain, whereas the southern part, which constitute nearly 76.6% of the region is characterized by plateau and is covered with forest. The southern plateau rises abruptly from the northern alluvial plain with a number of escarpments. The contour line of 100 m mainly demarcates the boundary between plateau and plain. The plateau zone is deeply dissected and highly rugged terrain. The resultant topography comprises of a number of mesas and isolated hillocks showing elevation differences from 150 m to 385 m above mean sea level. Being rugged terrain in the southern part, nowadays human encroachment are taking place for more land for the cultivation. The changes were well observed in the land use and land cover in the study region. A large part of fallow land and open forest were converted into cultivated land.

SummaryBackground: Oxidative stress in patients with end-stage renal disease (ESRD) is associated with long-term cardiovascular complications. The cytosolic family of glutathione S-transferases (GSTs) is involved in the detoxication of various toxic compounds and antioxidant protection. GST omega class members, GSTO1 and GSTO2 possess, unlike other GSTs, dehydroascorbate reductase and deglutathionylation activities. The aim of this study was to clarify the role of genetic polymorphisms of GSTO1 (rs4925) and GSTO2 (rs156697) as risk determinants for ESRD development, as well as in the survival of these patients.Methods: A total of 199 patients and 199 healthy subjects were included in the study and genotyped for both GSTO1 and GSTO2 polymorphism. Protein thiol and carbonyl groups as markers of protein oxidative damage were determined spectrophotometrically. Cox proportional hazard model and Kaplan-Meier analysis were performed to investigate the role of GSTO1 and GSTO2 genetic polymorphism on mortality of ESRD patients during the follow-up period (36 month).Results: Individuals carrying the variant GSTO2 GG genotype were at 2.45-fold higher risk of ESRD development compared to the wild type GSTO2 AA genotype (OR=2.45; 95%CI=1.18-5.07; p=0.016). The results of GSTO1/GSTO2 haplotype analysis showed that the haplotype combi - nation of GSTO1 (*A)/GSTO2 (*A) (GSTO1 variant/GSTO2 wild type allele) was protective for ESRD (OR=0.23 95%CI=0.12-0.44, p=0.001). Patients carrying at least one GSTO1 reference allele have shorter mean overall (Log rank=2.844, p =0.241) and cardiovascular survival probability (Log rank=4.211, p=0.122).Conclusions: GSTO polymorphisms have been shown to act as significant markers in assessing the risk of ESRD development and patients’ survival.

SummaryBackground: After the introduction of modern laboratory instruments and information systems, preanalytic phase is the new field of battle. Errors in preanalytical phase account for approximately half of total errors in clinical laboratory. The objective of this study was to share an experience of an education program that was believed to be successful in decreasing the number of rejected samples received from the Emergency Department (ED).Methods: An education program about laboratory procedures, quality requirements in the laboratory, patient and health-care worker safety was planned by the quality team to be performed on 36 people who were responsible for sample collection in the ED. A questionary which included 11 questions about the preanalytic phase was applied to all the attendees before and after training. The number of rejected samples per million was discovered with right proportion account over the number of accepted and rejected samples to laboratory after and before the training period.Results: Most of the attendees were nurses (n: 22/55%), with over 12 years of experience in general and 2-4 years experience in the ED. Knowledge level of the attendees was calculated before training as 58.9% and after training as 91.8%. While the total rate of sample rejection before training was 2.35% (sigma value 3.37-3.50), the rate after training was 1.56% (sigma value 3.62-3.75).Conclusions: Increasing the knowledge of staff has a direct positive impact on the preanalytic phase. The application of a pre-test was observed to be a feasible tool to shape group specific education programs.
Decreased undercarboxylated osteocalcin in children with type 2 diabetes mellitus
Authors: Takaya Junji , Tanabe Yuko , Kuroyanagi Yuichi , Kaneko Kazunari 
Published: July 2016

Abstract

Background:
Osteocalcin (OC) is a bone-specific protein secreted by osteoblasts and often used as a bone formation biomarker. OC undergoes post-translational carboxylation to yield carboxylated osteocalcin (Gla-OC) and undercarboxylated osteocalcin (uc-OC) molecules. The aim of this study was to explore the association between bone and glucose metabolism by evaluating OC, ionized cations, and markers of glucose metabolism in children with obesity and type 2 diabetes mellitus (DM2).

Methods:
The subjects were nine children with DM2 [six males, three females; age 15.7±4.1 years; duration of disease 3.2±1.2 years], 18 children with simple obesity [12 males, six females; age 12.6±4.1 years], and 12 controls [eight males, four females; age 12.3±3.2 years]. Serum Gla-OC and uc-OC levels were determined using an enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA).

Results:
Patients with DM2 (0.65±0.46 ng/mL), but not with obesity (1.11±0.55 ng/mL), had lower uc-OC levels than controls (1.25±0.49 ng/mL). Serum uc-OC was negatively correlated with mean serum glucose levels (r=–0.447, p=0.013) and hemoglobin A1c (HbA1c) (r=–0.455, p=0.012) in all subjects. Serum Gla-OC was correlated with serum alkaline phosphatase (r=0.601, p<0.001) and inorganic phosphorus (r=0.686, p<0.001), yet negatively correlated with age (r=–0.383, p=0.030). Mean serum ionized magnesium was lower in DM2 subjects than in controls. Mean serum ionized calcium was higher in obese subjects than in controls. In all subjects, mean serum ionized magnesium was negatively correlated with mean serum glucose levels.

Conclusions:
Osteoblast-derived protein OC, especially uc-OC, may have a role in the pathophysiology of diabetes by being associated with blood glucose homeostasis.

Published: July 2016

Abstract
In this paper, a study of a mechatronic scanning system for application in the microbiology, microelectronics research, chemistry, etc. is presented. Integrated silicon micro electro mechanical system (MEMS) position sensor is used for monitoring the displacement of the scanning system. The utilized silicon MEMS sensors with sidewall embedded piezoresistors possess a number of key advantages such as high sensitivity, low noise and extremely low temperature dependence. Design of 2D scanning system with a travel range of 22 × 22 μm2 has been presented in present work. This system includes a Compliant Transmission Mechanism, (CTM) designed as a complex elastic mechanism, comprising four parallelograms. Computer aided desigh (CAD) model and finite element analysis (FEA) of the Compliant Transmission Mechanism mechanisms have been carried out. A prototype of the scanning system is fabricated, based on CAD model. An experimental set-up of an optical system and a correlation technique for digital image processing have been used for testing the scanning system prototype. Results of the experimental investigations of the prototyped scanning system are also presented.
Motion of a Point Mass in a Rotating Disc: A Quantitative Analysis of the Coriolis and Centrifugal Force
Authors: Haddout Soufiane 
Published: July 2016

Abstract
In Newtonian mechanics, the non-inertial reference frames is a generalization of Newton’s laws to any reference frames. While this approach simplifies some problems, there is often little physical insight into the motion, in particular into the effects of the Coriolis force. The fictitious Coriolis force can be used by anyone in that frame of reference to explain why objects follow curved paths. In this paper, a mathematical solution based on differential equations in non-inertial reference is used to study different types of motion in rotating system. In addition, the experimental data measured on a turntable device, using a video camera in a mechanics laboratory was conducted to compare with mathematical solution in case of parabolically curved, solving non-linear least-squares problems, based on Levenberg-Marquardt’s and Gauss-Newton algorithms.
Prosodic vowel lengthening in a spontaneous speech corpus of Vimeu Picard
Authors: Halicki Eric 
Published: July 2016

Abstract
The goal of this paper is to present findings about vowel lengthening at morpho-syntactically defined prosodic boundaries. The data come from a corpus of spontaneous speech from Vimeu Picard, a Gallo- Romance language. A total of 10 672 vowel durations are measured, and 5336 vowel ratios are calculated, providing data for the prosodic word, clitic group, phonological phrase, intonational phrase, and the utterance. A general increase in vowel duration is observed as one ascends the prosodic hierarchy, without adjusting for rate of speech. Significant differences in vowel ratio are found between the clitic group and all other phrases, the prosodic word and the intonational phrase, the phonological phrase and the intonational phrase, and the intonational phrase and the utterance. Contrary to what was expected, vowel ratios at the utterance edge were found to be significantly shorter than vowel ratios at the intonational phrase edge. This may be because pauses are greater for the utterance than for the intonational phrase.
Inflection – semantics interfaces in a typological setting: number and non-specific nominal items in Old Spanish legal codices

Abstract
Mikołaj Nkollo & Magdalena Tkaczyk. Inflection - semantics interfaces in a typological setting: number and non-specific nominal items in Old Spanish legal codices. The Poznań Society for the Advancement of Arts and Sciences, PL ISSN 0079-4740, pp. 17-29
The present inquiry has been spurred by the observation of the morphological behaviour of human-denoting common nouns in Old Spanish codices (13th to 15th century). In spite of the fact that legal norms are designed to apply to an unrestricted number of potential addressees, this class of nominal items surfaces nearly exclusively in the singular, with plural forms being strongly underrepresented. A series of parameters converge to account for this form - function mismatch, thus revealing an essentially interdependent nature of linguistic mechanisms underlying it: type of inflection (inherent vs. contextual), text genre characteristics (distance pole vs proximate pole) and syntactic environment (conditional protases). The pervasiveness of the singular is traced back to non-specificity. Out of two mutually exclusive typological clines accounting for the likelihood of inflectional variation in noun morphology, Definiteness Hierarchy is given preference over degrees of animacy: non-specifically used items, even if highly ranked on animacy scale, are the least likely to surface as plural forms. Competing motivations are assumed to provide a suitable analytical framework to account for typological conflicts such as the one exemplified in Old Spanish legal codices.

Abstract
Alexander A. Sigorskiy. Evolution of ergativity in the Western Hindi. The Poznań Society for the Advancement of Arts and Sciences, PL ISSN 0079-4740, pp. 41-58
The early stage of the Western Hindi vernaculars demonstrates two types of typology competing with each other - Nominative typology and Split Ergative typology. Ergative typology includes a number of ergative strategies existing in different vernaculars and in the one and the same vernacular as well. In the course of standardization of Modern Standard Hindi (MSH) Split Ergative Typology wins. The main features of Old Hindi case system are: 1) Old Hindi demonstrates the same, dative case marking both for Subject (Agent) and Object (Patient), whereas MSH has differentiated these case markers, 2) Old Hindi has two types of agreement - (a) only with unmarked S/O and (b) both with unmarked and marked S/O, while MSH allows only the first one.
English Loanwords in the Language of Young, Contemporary Computer Gamers
Authors: Szymańska Marta , Sporek Paweł 
Published: July 2016

Abstract The following article is about the presence of English loanwords in the language used by young gamers. It is of research nature - it is based on the recognition, around the mother tongue, of primary and secondary school students. It emerges from survey research whose aim was to examine how the language of young Poles is influenced by information technology, especially computer games and films related to gaming. The most important aim of the research was to diagnose to what extent and in what form English vocabulary used in computer games penetrates everyday language of students. It was also important to establish the way in which Polish absorbs loaned vocabulary in natural communication and adjusts it to its rules (inflexion, syntax, word building). The questions prepared for the purpose of the survey examined linguistic intuition of students who had the possibility to choose the lexicon (English word and its Polish equivalent), as well as show the understanding of words typical of computer games which derive from English and are also changed in some way. The research tool also examined the student's lexical competence which was supposed to be directly related to the environment of new technology and computer games as well as examined the use of given lexicon in various syntactic constructs. The foundation for the described results and the topic discussed in this article were the thoughts regarding the role and the influence of new technological and socio-cultural reality and their influence on the changes in the language.
Brueghel’s Two Monkeys – a Tiny Painting by Bruegel, a Very Short Poem by Szymborska and the Biggest Problems of Mankind
Authors: Kołodziej Piotr 
Published: July 2016

Abstract There is a great power in works of art. Art provides knowledge about human experience, which is not available in another way. Art gives answers to the most important and eternal questions about humanity, even though these answers are never final. Sometimes it happens that works of some artists encourage or provoke a reaction of other artists. Thanks to this in history of culture - across borders of time and space - there lasts a continuous dialogue, a continuous reflection on the essence of human existence.This text shows a fragment of such a dialogue, in which the interlocutors are a sixteenth-century painter Pieter Bruegel the Elder and a twentieth-century poet and Nobel Prize winner Wislawa Szymborska. Szymborska, proposing a masterful interpretation of a tiny painting by Bruegel, poses dramatic questions about human freedom, formulates a poetic response and forces a recipient to reflect on the most important topics.This text also brings up a question of a word - picture relationship, a problem of translation of visual signs to verbal signs, as well as a problem of translation of poetry from one language to another.

Körper, wissen und kommunikation
Authors: Knoblauch Hubert 
Published: July 2016

AbstractDie Sozialität von Körper und Wissen ist ein Gegenstand der phänomenologisch orientierten Wissenssoziologie. Ausgehend vom leiblich verstandenen Begriff der Lebenswelt vermeidet sie eine Reduktion von Wissen auf Kognition. Wissen stellt den sozial vermittelten Sinn dar. Es reicht vom lebensweltlichen Grundlagenwissen über das habitualisierte und sedimentierte Wissen bis zu den zeichenhaften Objektivationen. Weil Sinn wesentlich durch den Leib und durch Objektivationen als Wissen vermittelt wird, können wir genauer von Kommunikation bzw. kommunikativem Handeln reden. Von diesem allgemeinen Begriff der Wissensvermittlung als Kommunikation muss jedoch die Wissenskommunikation unterschieden werden, die Wissen als Wissen zum Gegenstand macht.
Zu einer tiefenpsychologischen Hermeneutik des Leibes
Authors: Rugenstein Kai 
Published: July 2016

Abstract
Ausgehend von der Leitmetapher der Tiefe untersucht der Beitrag das Aufeinanderbezogensein von Sinnverstehen und Leiblichkeit in den tiefenpsychologischen Entwürfen Nietzsches und Freuds. Es wird gezeigt, wie therapeutisch relevante Selbsterkenntnis am Schnittpunkt von leiblich-agierter und sprachlich-narrativer Wirklichkeit, in der Konvergenz von Sinnesund Sinnerfahrung entsteht. Die Formulierung „Hermeneutik des Leibes“ wird in einer doppelten Lesart präsentiert: Der Leib, der zunächst als etwas Auslegungsbedürftiges, sich unserem Verstehen jedoch in eigentümlicher Weise Entziehendes in den Blick kommt, entpuppt sich dabei schließlich als schöpferische Instanz, als auslegender Leib.

Medizinische und dämonologische Abhandlungen über den psychophysischen Dualismus im deutschen Cartesianismus des 17. Jahrhunderts
Authors: Omodeo Pietro Daniel 
Published: July 2016

AbstractDie grundlegende Verschiedenheit von Körper und Geist, der sogenannte psychophysische Dualismus, zählt zu den Hauptpostulaten cartesianischer Philosophie. Trotz der damit einhergehenden Unmöglichkeit eines Wissens über den Körper findet sich sowohl bei Descartes als auch bei den deutschen Cartesianern des 17. Jahrhunderts ein umfangreicher psychophysiologischer Diskurs. Mein Beitrag rekonstruiert diese praktische Aneignung des psychophysischen Dualismus anhand dreier medizinischer Disputationen sowie einer dä- monologischen Abhandlung aus dem Umfeld der Universität Frankfurt/Oder. Hierdurch soll aufgezeigt werden, dass der cartesianische Dualismus eine Untersuchung der psychophysischen Einheit des Menschen, ein Wissen über den Körper, nicht verhindert, sondern eher neue Körpertheorien und -praktiken hervorbringt.
Körperwissen, Tradition und Innovation in der babylonischen Medizin
Authors: Steinert Ulrike 
Published: July 2016

AbstractWas wussten die babylonischen Heilkundigen über die Anatomie und Physiologie des menschlichen Körpers? In diesem Beitrag analysiert die Autorin altmesopotamische Schriftquellen für medizinisches Körperwissen und diskutiert die praktisch-empirischen Grundlagen antiker Körperkonzepte, die maßgeblich auf der heilkundlichen Praxis, auf leiblichen Erfahrungen sowie auf Analogien zur Tieranatomie und zu Prozessen in der Lebensumwelt basieren. Ein Schwerpunkt der Studie liegt auf den Wechselbeziehungen zwischen Körperkonzepten, Krankheitstheorien und Heilungsstrategien im Spannungsfeld physiologischer, umweltbezogener und numinoser Krankheitsursachen. Zudem werden innovative Entwicklungen in den heilkundlichen Keilschrifttexten des 1. Jahrtausends v. Chr. thematisiert, wobei die Astro-Medizin und die Herausbildung physiologischer Modelle (Vier-Organ-System) sowie der Vergleich mit ähnlichen Systematisierungen medizinischen Wissens in China und Griechenland im Mittelpunkt stehen.
