Abstract
Objective—To assess the safety and efficacy of alcohol-facilitated ankylosis of the distal intertarsal (DIT) and tarsometatarsal (TMT) joints in horses with osteoarthritis (bone spavin).
Design—Prospective clinical trial.
Animals—21 horses with DIT or TMT joint-associated hind limb lameness and 5 nonlame horses.
Procedures—11 horses (group 1) underwent lameness, force-plate, and radiographic examinations; following intra-articular analgesia, lameness and force-plate examinations were repeated. Nonlame horses were used for force-plate data acquisition only. Following localization of lameness to the DIT and TMT joints, contrast arthrographic evaluation was performed; when communication with the tibiotarsal joint was not evident or suspected, 70% ethyl alcohol (3 mL) was injected. Group 1 horses underwent lameness, force-plate, and radiographic examinations every 3 months for 1 year. Ten other horses (group 2) underwent lameness and radiographic examinations followed by joint injection with alcohol; follow-up information was obtained from owners or via clinical examination.
Results—Significant postinjection reduction in lameness (after 3 days to 3 months) was evident for all treated horses. Twelve months after injection, 10 of 11 group 1 horses were not lame; lameness grade was 0.5 in 1 horse. Follow-up information was available for 9 of 10 group 2 horses; 7 were not lame, and 2 remained mildly lame (1 had a concurrent problem in the injected limb, and the other had DIT joint collapse that precluded needle entry).
Conclusions and Clinical Relevance—Intra-articular alcohol injection in horses with bone spavin resulted in a rapid (usually within 3 months) reduction in lameness and joint space collapse.

Construction of the New High-Precision Moon Rotation Series at a Long Time Intervals
The main purposes of this research are the construction of the new high-precision Moon Rotation Series (MRS2011), dynamically adequate to the DE404/LE404 and the DE406/LE406 ephemeris, over long time intervals. The comparison of the new highprecision Moon Rotation solutions of MRS2011 with the solution of MRS2010 (Pashkevich and Eroshkin, 2010), which is dynamically adequate to the DE200/LE200 ephemeris over 418.9 year time interval, is performed. The dynamics of the rotational motion of the Moon is studied numerically by using Rodrigues-Hamilton parameters over 418.9, 2000 and 6000 years. The numerical solution of the Moon rotation is implemented with the quadruple precision of the calculations. The results of the numerical solution of the problem are compared with the composite semi-analytical theory of the Moon rotation (SMR) (Pashkevich and Eroshkin, 2010) with respect to the fixed ecliptic of epoch J2000. The initial conditions of the numerical integration are taken from SMR. The investigation of the discrepancies is carried out by the least squares and spectral analysis methods for the Newtonian case. All the secular, periodic and Poisson terms, representing the behavior of the residuals, are interpreted as corrections to SMR semi-analytical theory. As a result, the Moon Rotation Series (MRS2011) is constructed, which is dynamically adequate to the DE404/LE404 and the DE406/LE406 ephemeris over 418.9, 2000 and 6000 years. A numerical solution for the Moon rotation is obtained anew with the new initial conditions calculated by means of MRS2011. The discrepancies between the new numerical solution and the semi-analytical solution of MRS2011 do not surpass 20 mas over 418.9 year time interval, 64 mas over 2000 year time interval and 8 arc seconds over 6000 year time interval. Thus, the result of the comparison demonstrates a good consistency of MRS2011 series with the DE/LE ephemeris.

A Study of Foreign Language Learning Styles Used by Georgian Students
The aim of the work was to research learning style distribution in Georgian university students to determine which styles or their complexes are optimal in foreign language learning in similar conditions of teaching. Learning style preferences of more and less successful students were compared using a standardized test (Ehrman, 1998). An analysis of frequencies does not reveal reliable differences between more successful and less successful students. A statistically reliable correlation between varieties of styles was detected only in more successful students, giving grounds to conclude that successful students use diverse and multiple styles, while less successful ones are mostly stuck with one style.
Precursors of Coordinate Constructions: Polish-Bulgarian Parallels
Authors: Stoyanova Juliana 
Published: January 2012

Precursors of Coordinate Constructions: Polish-Bulgarian ParallelsThe purpose of this paper is to compare the earliest stages in the ontogeny of coordinate constructions - both phrasal and sentential - in the development of children acquiring two genetically and structurally related languages, Polish and Bulgarian. The data regarding Polish are excerpted from the speech production of 3 of the children belonging to Szuman's corpus included in CHILDES; the Bulgarian data come from 3 Bulgarian subjects whose language development was traced by the author of this paper. The results show that for both languages, the earliest and most primitive forms of coordination consist of sequences containing two or more NPs with existential semantics. The further acquisition of coordinate constructions displays two lines of development. The first line concerns phrasal coordinate constructions including subject, object and adverbial coordinate phrases, whereas the second line affects the development of sentential coordination. The two developmental lines take their course more or less simultaneously, that is, children produce phrasal coordinate constructions on one hand and two types of sentential coordination on the other: such that can be transformed into phrasal coordinate structures by means of the operation of deletion, and such that cannot, so-calledirreduciblecoordinate sentences. Language specificity did not prove to play any important role in the development of coordination in the speech of the Polish and the Bulgarian children. The analyses and discussions emphasize the interplay between children's cognitive, communicative and linguistic development.

The (Dis)alienating Function of the Media. The Role of Mass Media in Building a Civil Society
The article discusses the relationships between a sense of alienation and the use of mass media. This discussion was triggered by the idea of the media's significant power in the lives of individuals and their ability to meet fundamental needs. Given the fact that the level of a sense of alienation implies the level of citizens' socio-political activity, defining the role of the media focuses on their importance in the process of building a civil society.

Optimal coefficient of the share of cogeneration in the district heating system cooperating with thermal storage
The paper presents the results of optimizing the coefficient of the share of cogeneration expressed by an empirical formula dedicated to designers, which will allow to determine the optimal value of the share of cogeneration in contemporary cogeneration systems with the thermal storages feeding the district heating systems. This formula bases on the algorithm of the choice of the optimal coefficient of the share of cogeneration in district heating systems with the thermal storage, taking into account additional benefits concerning the promotion of high-efficiency cogeneration and the decrease of the cost of CO2 emission thanks to cogeneration. The approach presented in this paper may be applicable both in combined heat and power (CHP) plants with back-pressure turbines and extraction-condensing turbines.

Determination of temperature and thermal stresses distribution in power boiler elements with use inverse heat conduction method
The following paper presents the method for solving one-dimensional inverse boundary heat conduction problems. The method is used to estimate the unknown thermal boundary condition on inner surface of a thick-walled Y-branch. Solution is based on measured temperature transients at two points inside the element's wall thickness. Y-branch is installed in a fresh steam pipeline in a power plant in Poland. Determination of an unknown boundary condition allows for the calculation of transient temperature distribution in the whole element. Next, stresses caused by non-uniform transient temperature distribution and by steam pressure inside a Y-branch are calculated using the finite element method. The proposed algorithm can be used for thermal-strength state monitoring in similar elements, when it is not possible to determine a 3-D thermal boundary condition. The calculated temperature and stress transients can be used for the calculation of element durability. More accurate temperature and stress monitoring will contribute to a substantial decrease of maximal stresses that occur during transient start-up and shut-down processes.
A Randomized, Controlled Trial of the Short-Term Effects of Complementing an Educational Program for Hearing Aid Users with Telephone Consultations
Authors: Lundberg Milijana , Andersson Gerhard , Lunner Thomas 
Published: January 2012

Background:Audiologic rehabilitation aims to improve communication for people with hearing impairment. Education is widely regarded as an integral part of rehabilitation, but the effect of the delivery method of an educational program on the experience of hearing problems has
rarely been investigated in controlled trials.Purpose:The purpose of this study was to examine the short-term effects of complementing an educational program for hearing aid users with telephone consultations, delivered through weekly discussions with the subjects about information
obtained from a book on hearing and hearing aids.Research Design:This study used a randomized, controlled design.Study Sample:In total, 69 hearing aid users were randomly assigned to an intervention group (n = 33) or a control group (n = 36).Intervention:The
intervention group had access to a book and received weekly topic-based reading instructions related to the different chapters of the book. Five telephone calls were made to the members of the intervention group. During the calls, an audiologist discussed new information with the participant
as needed. The control participants also read the book, but they did not discuss the contents of the book with a professional.Data Collection and Analysis:The Hearing Handicap Inventory for the Elderly (HHIE), the Hospital Anxiety and Depression Scale (HADS), and the International Outcome
Inventory for Hearing Aids (IOI-HA) were used to measure the outcomes of this study.Results:Participants in the intervention group had a reduction in self-reported hearing handicap, while there were no significant changes in the control group. In the intervention group, 45% of the participants
showed an improvement of ≥36% on the HHIE, while only 17% of the control group showed an improvement of ≥36%. There were also improvements on the HADS total and the depression subscale for the intervention group. No changes occurred on the IOI-HA.Conclusions:Reading about hearing
and hearing aids can reduce the hearing handicap and reported anxiety in hearing aid users. In this study, discussing the content of the book that was provided with a professional during weekly telephone consultations and having weekly home assignments further improved emotional well-being,
as demonstrated by the HHIE (emotional scale) and HADS (depression scale), but these activities had no effect on hearing aid outcomes as measured by the IOI-HA.
« L'atelier intérieur du musicien », ou la passe musicale de Max Graf
Authors: Lalvée Brigitte 
Published: January 2012

Résumé En 1910 Max Graf, disciple et ami de Freud de 1900 à 1911, père du « petit Hans », fait paraître un essai sur la création musicale dans ses rapports avec l’inconscient, L’atelier intérieur du musicien . Cet essai, qui conjugue les frayages freudiens et la thèse d’un inconscient musical, se signale comme un témoignage, véritable rejeton d’écriture d’un nouage originel entre musique et psychanalyse. Il ne peut s’extraire d’un réseau transférentiel et textuel tramé de silences : silence de la communauté psychanalytique quant au devenir musical de Hans-Herbert ; silence de Max Graf qui publie quarante après l’avoir reçu de Freud le manuscrit de Personnages psychanalytiques à la scène , publication qui a valeur d’acte ; silence enfin de Freud qui ne prit jamais acte de cette passe musicale avant la lettre. Cet essai marque pourtant le troisième temps d’un circuit invoquant où Freud et Graf s’étaient faits tour à tour récepteurs et entendeurs, l’un du cadre analytique informé par la scène théâtrale (dont Herbert Graf s’est fait lui aussi le récepteur en réinventant la scène d’opéra), l’autre de l’enjeu musical du cas, qui en informe la lettre. Dans cet essai Graf met implicitement en regard, à l’origine du processus créateur, la chambre des enfants, lieu du fantasme, et la chambre des parents, lieu du traumatisme sonore ; il fait jouer le diptyque scène-atelier, avance et déploie la notion spécifique de fantasme sonore, d’inconscient pulsionnel précurseur du ça freudien, évoque la pulsion comme « force » capable de pousser la « forme ». La création musicale se définit comme un type particulier, le plus élaboré, de conversion de l’affect en forme sonore.
De l'épisode phobique au devenir metteur en scène d'opéra du « petit Hans » : une voi(e)x d'accès à l'inconscient et ses musiques
Authors: Vivès Jean-Michel 
Published: January 2012

Résumé Le cas du « petit Hans » est un des plus commentés de la littérature analytique. Son devenir metteur en scène d’opéra à partir de 1925 en Europe puis aux États-Unis reste beaucoup moins connu. Cela peut paraître d’autant plus étonnant que Freud repère très tôt l’émergence de cet intérêt chez Hans. Pour autant il ne le commentera ni au moment où il relate le cas en 1909, ni lorsque Hans lui rend visite en 1922, alors que celui-ci a déjà choisi de devenir metteur en scène d’opéra. L’auteur de cet article s’attache à montrer en quoi ce choix artistique pourrait être compris comme une façon d’accommoder, dans une double relation transférentielle à Freud et à son père, les restes non analysés du « charivari » et de « la tache noire » apparus au moment de l’épisode phobique.
La question de la structure du silence en psychanalyse
Authors: Sauvagnat François 
Published: January 2012

Résumé L’auteur essaie de caractériser la structure du silence en psychanalyse, en considérant qu’un pas décisif a été réalisé dans ce domaine par J. Lacan. Jusqu’aux travaux de ce dernier dans les années 1950, en effet, le silence était étudié sous deux rubriques : le silence du patient, généralement rapporté à des résistances et à diverses problématiques pulsionnelles ; le silence de l’analyste, qui était décrit soit comme lié à une intersubjectivité nécessaire, soit comme participant d’une communication infra-verbale, soit comme risque de déstabilisation du patient, soit comme le lieu d’une réconciliation possible entre le patient et son surmoi. Avec Lacan, la question du silence est fortement liée à la question du surmoi, compris à partir du phénomène des hallucinations interrompues schrébérienne, et a des conséquences sur la façon dont il envisage la structuration du corps et de la réalité. Deux cas cliniques sont cités, et les conséquences de cette avancée pour le traitement analytique sont évoquées.
La sonification versus la composition biotique des icônes du cerveau
Authors: Minciacchi Diego 
Published: January 2012

Résumé La présente contribution retrace les bases théoriques, les résultats essentiels et les perspectives de mes recherches sur les relations entre la structure et les fonctions du cerveau et les processus de composition musicale. La première partie recense les données et les points de vue qui expliquent pourquoi la musique ne peut pas être décrite en termes d’universaux spécifiques : elle n’est pas le privilège exclusif de l’espèce humaine et sa perception est un processus construit très tôt et amplement partagé. En outre, pour la perception et la production de la musique, nous utilisons des réseaux cérébraux vastes, complexes, et largement entremêlés. La deuxième partie décrit le processus de composition en se concentrant sur les systèmes de sonification et de la musique biotique qui tirent des neurosciences leurs informations et les lient aux paramètres musicaux. La sonification est l’utilisation d’une structure sonore dépourvue d’éléments langagiers pour transmettre un contenu informatif dérivé des données biologiques. Inversement, la musique biotique peut être considérée comme une production musicale dont les données d’origine sont biologiques. On présentera ici les enjeux théoriques et quelques exemples des stratégies de transformation des données du cerveau aux objets sonores. La méthode biotique décrite ici peut contribuer à une vue d’ensemble des différents paramètres du son et des aspects micro- et macro-formels de la composition musicale.
L'intervalle musical : entre l'Autre et l'autre
Authors: Lecourt Édith 
Published: January 2012

Résumé Le fondement de la structure musicale est l’intervalle entre deux sons : dans le temps (la durée, le rythme), et dans l’espace (l’association de plusieurs voix/instruments). Dans les mythes musicaux, la musique est souvent considérée comme d’origine mystique. La musique rend sonore la relation au grand Autre (par exemple dans la tradition indienne). La pratique clinique nous amène à l’analyse des processus psychiques impliqués dans la perception qui va du son à la musique (exemple de la clinique de l’autisme). La mise en place d’une enveloppe musico-verbale assure le passage au grand Autre par l’intermédiaire des codes verbal et musical. Que se passe-t-il lorsque l’intervalle se brouille ? Ce « brouillage sonore », ni chaos ni fusion, est ici analysé à partir du dispositif de « communication sonore » en groupe.

Classification des apports d’Internet à l’apprentissage des langues
Authors: Mangenot François 
Published: January 2012

Cet article tente de classer les apports d’Internet à l’enseignement/apprentissage des langues en partant de l’approche centrée sur la tâche. Les exemples sont empruntés au FLE. L’unité classificatoire, appelée "ressource", n’est pas constituée simplement de ce que l’on trouve sur Internet (contenus des "pages" et sites, canaux de communication) mais cherche aussi à prendre en compte, en les distinguant, l’activité de l’enseignant et celle de l’apprenant. Selon que l’on considère l’une ou l’autre des deux facettes d’Internet, l’information ou la communication, ressortent alors deux notions : concernant la recherche d’informations, on considère qu’il est fondamental que celle-ci soit guidée par des tâches ; concernant la communication, c’est la notion de projet qui est évoquée.
