On methodology of divisions and classifications of parliamentary systems/ Podziały i typologie systemów parlamentarnych: zagadnienia metodologiczne
Authors: Wallner Michał 
Published: May 2015

AbstractParliamentary system was adopted by the most of the modern democracies. It occurs where the principle of government’s responsibility to parliament is respected. This principle is the basis of parliamentary government and a common feature of the largest group of democratic countries. In comparing these countries, one should also pay attention to the differences between them. They concern both constitutional norms and political practice. This implies that there is no single model of parliamentarism; on the contrary, there are many variations of it. In this situation, there is an objective need to organize a set of parliamentary systems. The paper presents examples of different analytical procedures such as dichotomy, classification and typology. The author concludes that the most useful of these instruments is the typology, and it can arise only on the basis of extensive classification of parliamentary systems. The creation of such a classification would require broad historical-comparative research.
The enemy in the communist political system – example of the Polish People’s Republic 1956–1989/ Kategoria wroga w komunistycznej Polsce w latach 1956–1989
Authors: Trembicka Krystyna 
Published: May 2015

AbstractCategory of enemy presented in the program documents of the communist parties, was an inherent feature of the communist way of thinking, then reflected in the political system of the People’s Poland. Political regimes modeled on the Soviet Union needed enemies. Mobilization, which in the first phase of development of the state served reconstruction of the country, and then defend the status quo, required activation against all kinds of enemies. It was evident the need for the existence of the enemy, which was permanent. Changed only the image of the enemy.Enemies were sought inside and outside the communist movement. Communist world was composed mainly of enemies. The enemy was necessary, even mythical. Fight against real or mythical enemies allowed to pursue various goals: differentiate society, to explain various failures, eliminate inconvenient persons, to justify the existence of the security services and the need to strengthen it, to build a party of a new type.The communist movement had created two categories of enemies. The first included the kind of traditional, “class” enemies of the communist movement, “acquired” along with the state in 1944, and treated as a real enemies, which were various types of: 1) social groups as a “capitalist elements” - traders, farmers; 2) political and military organizations and institutions; 3) ideologies and doctrines competitive with Marxism. The U.S. and English imperialism was the constant enemy which was located outside of the state. The second category consisted of enemies which were created in Polish People’s Republic - “objective” and “potential” enemies.
Between art and politics: the avant-garde art to the social-political changes in the Weimar Republic/ Między sztuką i polityką: awangarda artystyczna wobec zmian społeczno-politycznych w Republice Weimarskiej
Authors: Cześniak-Zielińska Magdalena 
Published: May 2015

AbstractArticle discusses the relationships between art and politics on the example of the German avantgarde, whose origins must be sought in the period before the First World War had broken out. Ideas of the German expressionism evolved under the influence of the Great War and the news from the Bolshevik Russia. Many left-wing artists in post-war Germany were involved in the revolutionary movement, especially the so-called November Revolution; after the Versailles Treaty, some of them joined the management of culture institutions and artistic schools with the famous Bauhaus School of Design at the forefront. Hitler’s rise to power brought an end to both the Weimar Republic and the avant-garde art in Germany
Populist Governments and the Freedom of the Media. The case of Hugo Chávez and Evo Morales/ Populistyczne rządy a wolność mediów. Przypadek Wenezueli Hugo Cháveza i Boliwii Evo Moralesa
Authors: Ratke-Majewska Anna 
Published: May 2015

AbstractThe main aim of this article is to answer the question of how populist governments of Hugo Chávez in Venezuela and Evo Morales in Bolivia affected the freedom of the media in countries governed by them. The text discusses actions made by the leaders who wanted to secure their unrestricted access to the mass media, stifle independent media and make them obedient to the government in order to build a positive image of the authorities. This article also made an attempt to perceive an analogy between Chávez’s and Morales’ decisions and to make a comprehensive assessment of the effects of these interventions

A Regularity Criterion for Positive Part of Radial Component in the Case of Axially Symmetric Navier-Stokes Equations
Authors: Kubica Adam 
Published: May 2015

Abstract
We examine the conditional regularity of the solutions of Navier-Stokes equations in the entire three-dimensional space under the assumption that the data are axially symmetric. We show that if positive part of the radial component of velocity satisfies a weighted Serrin type condition and in addition angular component satisfies some condition, then the solution is regular.

AbstractAmong mammals, rodents are the most important group since they influence the crop production and protection. Species identification of rodents on morphometric parameters is cumbersome and often misleading. However, DNA based identification would enable accurate species identification. For this purpose, we examined 650 bp of Cytochrome c oxidase subunit1 (COI) in four rodent pest species namely

Authors: Sobocka-Szczapa Halina 
Published: May 2015

AbstractTaking into consideration established directions of strategic actions and the need to exploit enterprises of custom employment statuses in practice, we would like to examine the alternative in the more detailed way above the vocational activation of people over 45 years old with the temporary work. The purpose of the study formulated in this way allows validating the research hypothesis which is: the temporary work doesn’t constitute the important instrument of supporting the occupational activity of people who are 45 years old. Above all features the shown population will be a base of conducted deliberations, a tendency to work in custom employment statuses and scale of exploiting this form of the occupational activity in Poland.

Informative Aspects of Innovation Implementation within Organisations
Authors: Kijewska Joanna , Nowak Witold 
Published: May 2015

Abstract
The aim of this paper is to analyse the informative aspects of implementing innovations within contemporary formal organisations, in particular, in enterprises. The paper concerns the information quality and its influence on the process of innovation implementation. Today, in conditions of the dynamic development of the scientific and technological knowledge, the question is no longer if there is a need to imply innovation but how to do it efficiently. Within the process of innovation implementation, the organisation’s management selects the appropriate ideas, makes the decision and takes the action to implement a new or a significantly improved solution. In this paper, the factors interrelated with the process of innovation implementation were analysed. The information asserts itself as a significant factor which influences the process. The neoinstitutional view on the information in organisations was a starting point for analysis. A conceptual framework of the information attributes, which influence the quality of the implementation of an innovation, was proposed. The applied research method is the secondary data analysis, which was based on the theoretical literature, as well as the empirical research results.
Marketing and Logistics Management as an Innovative Direction of Management in the SMEs Sector
Authors: Janczewska Danuta 
Published: May 2015

AbstractMarketing and logistics management is now becoming an interesting concept for entrepreneurs, and thus perpetuates the belief that the skills of marketing and logistics of the company contributes to the improvement of the company’s competitive position in the market. The activity of businesses from the SME sector is based on a much more modest material resources than it is in large enterprises, thus building logistic and marketing advantages through innovation strategies is often the right direction of improving the competitiveness of the SME sector. The aim of the paper is to present the areas and potential use of new methods of management, with the application of integration of marketing management and logistics processes. Knowledge of the characteristics of both types of processes in the SME sector becomes necessary. Insufficient knowledge of marketing and logistics in SMEs, both in the field of logistics and marketing should be complemented by the development of educational offer by institutions of science.
Business Intelligence in Organization. Benefits, Risks and Developments
Authors: Tunowski Remigiusz 
Published: May 2015

AbstractBased on the literature review, significant benefits have been identified out of the implementation of Business Intelligence. However, risks have been also discovered, and they were mainly connected with an improper change management during the process of the BI systems implementation. Further direction for a development of BI system has been discussed, focusing in particular on maturity models available in the literature. The paper highlights the fact that maturity models currently available in the literature do not take comprehensively into account all aspects of the development of BI in organizations. Therefore, there is a need for further research in this field of science.
Tesla Coil Theoretical Model and its Experimental Verification
Authors: Voitkans Janis , Voitkans Arnis 
Published: May 2015

Abstract
In this paper a theoretical model of Tesla coil operation is proposed. Tesla coil is described as a long line with distributed parameters in a single-wire form, where the line voltage is measured across electrically neutral space. By applying the principle of equivalence of single-wire and two-wire schemes an equivalent two-wire scheme can be found for a single-wire scheme and the already known long line theory can be applied to the Tesla coil. A new method of multiple reflections is developed to characterize a signal in a long line. Formulas for calculation of voltage in Tesla coil by coordinate and calculation of resonance frequencies are proposed. The theoretical calculations are verified experimentally. Resonance frequencies of Tesla coil are measured and voltage standing wave characteristics are obtained for different output capacities in the single-wire mode. Wave resistance and phase coefficient of Tesla coil is obtained. Experimental measurements show good compliance with the proposed theory. The formulas obtained in this paper are also usable for a regular two-wire long line with distributed parameters.
Songs Recognition Using Audio Information Fusion
Authors: Biernacki Paweł 
Published: May 2015

Abstract
The article presents information fusion approach for song classification with use of acoustic signal. Many acoustic features can contribute to correct identification of a song. Taking into consideration only one set of features may result in omission of relevant information. It is possible to improve the accuracy of identification process by means of the information fusion technique, in which various aspects of acoustic fingerprint are taken into consideration. Two sets of signal features were distinguished: one were based on frequency analysis (harmonic elements) and the other were based on multidimensional correlation ratios. An identification of a commercial was made with use of SVM and k-NN classifiers. The music audio signal database was used for assessing the effectiveness of the proposed solution. Results show an improved effectiveness of identification in relation to applying only one set of song features
New Aspects of Fault Diagnosis of Nonlinear Analog Circuits
Authors: Tadeusiewicz Michał , Hałgas Stanisław , Kuczyński Andrzej 
Published: May 2015

Abstract
The paper is focused on nonlinear analog circuits, with the special attention paid to circuits comprising bipolar and MOS transistors manufactured in micrometer and submicrometer technology. The problem of fault diagnosis of this class of circuits is discussed, including locating faulty elements and evaluating their parameters. The paper deals with multiple parametric fault diagnosis using the simulation after test approach as well as detection and location of single catastrophic faults, using the simulation before test approach. The discussed methods are based on diagnostic test, leading to a system of nonlinear algebraic type equations, which are not given in explicit analytical form. An important and new aspect of the fault diagnosis is finding multiple solutions of the test equation, i.e. several sets of the parameters values that meet the test. Another new problems in this area are global fault diagnosis of technological parameters in CMOS circuits fabricated in submicrometer technology and testing the circuits having multiple DC operating points. To solve these problems several methods have been recently developed, which employ different concepts and mathematical tools of nonlinear analysis. In this paper they are sketched and illustrated. All the discussed methods are based on the homotopy (continuation) idea. It is shown that various versions of homotopy and combinations of the homotopy with some other mathematical algorithms lead to very powerful tools for fault diagnosis of nonlinear analog circuits. To trace the homotopy path which allows finding multiple solutions, the simplicial method, the restart method, the theory of linear complementarity problem and Lemke’s algorithm are employed. For illustration four numerical examples are given
Saturated fatty acids induce endoplasmic reticulum stress in primary cardiomyocytes

Published: May 2015

AbstractAbstract: Introduction: Diabetes is a major contributor to cardiovascular disease. There is a growing body of evidence pointing towards intra-myocellular lipid accumulation as an integral etiological factor. Here we aimed to determine the effect of two common fatty acids on lipid accumulation and cellular stress in primary cardiomyocytes.Methods: We evaluated lipid accumulation biochemically (by triacylglyceride assay and radiolabeled fatty acid uptake assay) as well as histologically (by BODIPY 493/503 staining) in mouse and rat neonatal cardiomyocytes treated with saturated (palmitate) or mono-unsaturated (oleate) fatty acids. Endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress was evaluated by quantitative reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction (qRT-PCR) and Western blotting. Cell viability was assessed by propidium iodide staining.Results: We found that both oleate and palmitate led to significant increases in intracellular lipid in cardiomyocytes; however there were distinct differences in the qualitative nature of BODIPY staining between oleate and palmitate treated cardiomyocytes. We also show that palmitate caused significant apoptotic cell death and this was associated with ER stress. Interestingly, co-administration of oleate with palmitate abolished cell death, and ER stress. Finally, palmitate treatment caused a significant increase in ubiquitination of Grp78, a key compensatory ER chaperone.Conclusion: Palmitate causes ER stress and apoptotic cell death in primary cardiomyocytes and this is associated with apparent differences in BODIPY staining compared to oleate treated cardiomyocytes. Importantly, the lipotoxic effects of palmitate are abolished with the co-administration of oleate.
Industry life cycles of a resource town in Finland – the case of Lieksa
Authors: Halonen Maija , Kotilainen Juha , Tykkyläinen Markku , Vatanen Eero 
Published: May 2015

Abstract
The article aims to show how local industry life cycles impact the development of Finnish resource-based rural towns. This study reveals five long-term and overlapping industry cycles which were based on natural resources, assembly industries and service production. In general, the cycles have shortened over time. Transitions from cycle to cycle were enabled by the phases of resilience, which were highly dependent on political and economic processes at different scales. However, the political interventions of the last decades were unable to compensate for the disadvantages in competitiveness of this remote area and lay sustainable foundations for new industries. In the long run, the only exception has been the forest-related processing industry which has a capacity to renew its own operations and adapt to changing market situations. The results demonstrate the high significance of absolute advantage in rural development
Domain Modeling in the Context of Ontology
Authors: Dubielewicz Iwona , Hnatkowska Bogumiła , Huzar Zbigniew , Tuzinkiewicz Lech 
Published: May 2015

Abstract
The domain knowledge represented by ontology should be widely used in the design process of information system. The aim of the paper is to outline a systematic approach of developing a CIM model (domain model, precisely) on the basis of a selected domain ontology. There are presented some hints how ontology concepts can be expressed in domain model. Elaborated example realizes some difficulties in proposed approach, e.g. the domain knowledge is spread over many ontologies, some facts are defined at very general level (their interpretation is more difficult), ontology may contain many irrelevant elements. Nevertheless, we are believed that applying ontology in conscious way can help to achieve higher compliance of the domain model with the application domain.
Langerhans cell histiocytosis following treatment for testicular cancer. A case report and literature review
Authors: Nikolaos Pistamaltzian , Adamantia Nikolaidi , Maria Raftogiannis , Aggelos Economou , Spryridon Mourtzoukos , Ilias Athanasiadis 
Published: May 2015

Abstract
A 35 year old male patient received treatment for testicular cancer of pure seminoma histology. He underwent initially a right inguinal orchiectomy and afterwards he received 3 cycles of BEP chemotherapy, as his imaging studies showed enlarged para-aortic lymph nodes. Five months after completion of chemotherapy treatment, a thoracic CT revealed multiple micronodular lesions in both lungs. The patient was advised about the need of salvage chemotherapy, but he opted to undergo further investigation. A lung lesion biopsy was performed, and histology was compatible with diagnosis of Langerhans cell histiocytosis (LCH).
LCH is quite an unusual clinical entity that affects usually -but not solely- the lungs of young adults. The hallmark of the disease, is the presence of the activated Langerhans cells. As its clinical, laboratory and radiological findings are nonspecific, a transbronchial biopsy is sometimes necessary to establish diagnosis. Treatment is generally symptomatic and reserved for patients with multisystem organ involvement.
LCH’s relationship with cancer is complex and no certain correlation is evident. More troublesome can be its differential diagnosis from a cancer with metastatic spread to the lungs or other affected organs, and although rare, it has to be kept in mind when suspicious signs arise
Non-existence of certain Einstein metrics on some symplectic manifolds
Authors: Banyaga Augustin , Massamba Fortuné 
Published: May 2015

Abstract
We present a necessary and sufficient condition for an Einstein metric on a symplectic manifold (M,ω) to be ω-compatible. An immediate consequence of the solution of the Goldberg conjecture by Sekigawa is that there exists no Einstein metric with non-negative Ricci curvature satisfying our condition on compact symplectic manifolds that admit no Kähler structure.
Ett Litet Språks Spår I Översättarvärlden
Authors: Data-Bukowska Ewa 
Published: May 2015

Abstract
This paper looks into the issue of Swedish-Polish translationese as a manifestation of the Swedish centre impact on languages in the world via translation. The term “translationese” is used to describe a specific language created in translated texts, among other things in Swedish-to-Polish translation. Such a language may be postulated to influence contemporary Polish in some domains due to abundant translations of Swedish literature in Poland in recent years. What features can be then ascribed to the Swedish-Polish translationese, not only from a lexical but from a grammatical point of view as well? The paper addresses this question thorough an analysis of a Swedish literary text and its 33 Polish non-professional translations, which are assumed to maximize the tension between Swedish and Polish in translation underlying the development of translationese. However, the intention is not to characterize such a language as a whole, but to test some hypotheses in its delimitation. The propounded hypothesis is that the occurrence of a postulated feature in the majority of the collected translations may be seen as an indicator of this feature’s existence in the Swedish- Polish translationese as such. The following features are identified: frequent use of short sentences, possessive pronouns in an NP, underspecified expressions and repetitions of lexical items, as well as desolation of fixed phrases. The presented research may be an impute to a broader corpus-based contrastive study.
Appropriating A Female Voice: Nicholas Breton And The Countess Of Pembroke
Authors: DASCĂL REGHINA 
Published: May 2015

Abstract
The sixteenth century author Nicholas Breton appropriates a female voice in many of his writings, among which Marie Magdalens Loue and The Pilgrimage to Paradise joyned with the Countesse of Penbrookes Loue feature prominently. The Countess of Pembroke, celebrated by Aemilia Lanyer in her Salve Deus Rex Judaeorum as a paragon of female religious devotion, is often associated in Breton's texts with Mary Magdalene. This paper will analyse some of the anxieties engendered by this appropriation of voice and of the Magdalene figure, anxieties that prove to be disruptive of Elizabethan gender hierarchies.
