description: Combining multiple omics technologies provides a more detailed snapshot of biological processes, but these “multi-omics” data are traditionally analyzed individually. Although individual analysis can give some biological insight, it misses the opportunity to quantitatively integrate data and harness their power simultaneously. Some progress has been made in developing tools for integrating multi-omics data, but these are primarily for genomics applications. Tools that do exist for integrating metabolomics data (e.g., IMPALA, MSEA) are enrichment-focused and feature interactions are ignored. Given the shortcomings of existing tools, we developed iModMix (integrative Modules for Multi-omics data), a framework and R package for analyzing multi-omic datasets. iModMix uses graphical lasso to build biologically meaningful networks from expression features (e.g., metabolites, proteins). This solves the “hairball problem” by reducing the dimensionality of the network. Topological overlap measures (TOMs) are then generated for the reduced network, with features having high topological overlap if they are connected to similar neighbors. We then apply fuzzy correlation clustering for identifying groups of related features (“modules”). This fuzzy approach allows features to belong to more than one module, as for example proteins can belong to multiple pathways. These modules are empirically derived from the data and are not constrained by pre-defined pathways (e.g., KEGG). Importantly, modules from multi-omics datasets can be related to a phenotype and also between omic data types (e.g., metabolomics to proteomics). To test this approach, we generated a novel proteometabolomics dataset of KRAS mutant lung tumors from genetically altered mice (n = 20). Consistent with known biology, iModMix identifies cysteine metabolism protein modules highly correlated with glutathione metabolite modules. Interestingly, we found protein modules highly correlated with metabolite modules consisting entirely of unidentified metabolites. Ongoing work is investigating iModMix’s ability to identify unknown metabolites based on associations with known modules.

description: Aims: We derive the 3-D HI volume density distribution for the Galactic disk out to R = 60 kpc. Methods: Our analysis is based on parameters for the warp and rotation curve derived previously. The data are taken from the Leiden/Argentine/Bonn all sky 21-cm line survey. Results: The Milky Way HI disk is significantly warped but shows a coherent structure out to R = 35 kpc. The radial surface density distribution, the densities in the middle of the warped plane, and the HI scale heights all follow exponential relations. The radial scale length for the surface density distribution of the HI disk is 3.75 kpc. Gas at the outskirts for 40 < R < 60 kpc is described best by a distribution with an exponential radial scale length of 7.5 kpc and a velocity dispersion of 74 km/s. Such a highly turbulent medium fits also well with the average shape of the high velocity profile wings observed at high latitudes. The turbulent pressure gradient of such extra-planar gas is on average in balance with the gravitational forces. About 10% of the Milky Way HI gas is in this state. The large scale HI distribution is lopsided; for R < 15 kpc there is more gas in the south. The HI flaring indicates that this asymmetry is caused by a dark matter wake, located at R = 25 kpc in direction of the Magellanic System. Conclusions: The HI disk is made up of two major components. Most prominent is the normal HI disk which can be traced to R = 35 kpc. This is surrounded by a patchy distribution of highly turbulent gas reaching large scale heights but also large radial distances. At the position of the Sun the exponential scale height in the z direction is 3.9 kpc. This component resembles the anomalous gas discovered previously in some galaxies.

description: Identifying the algebra of exponential generating series with the shuffle algebra of formal power series, one can define an exponential map ${\mathop{exp}}_!:X\mathbb K[[X]]\longrightarrow 1+X\mathbb K[[X]]$ for the associated Lie group formed by exponential generating series with constant coefficient 1 over an arbitrary field $\mathbb K$. The main result of this paper states that the map ${\mathop{exp}}_!$ (and its inverse map ${\mathop{log}}_!$) induces a bijection between rational, respectively algebraic, series in $X\mathbb K [[X]]$ and $1+X\mathbb K[[X]]$ if the field $\mathbb K$ is a subfield of the algebraically closed field $\bar{\mathbb F}_p$ of characteristic $p$.

description: We introduce a machine-learning density-functional-theory formalism for the spinless Hubbard model in one dimension at both zero and finite temperature. In the zero-temperature case this establishes a one-to-one relation between the site occupation and the total energy, which is then minimised at the ground-state occupation. In contrast, at finite temperature the same relation is defined between the Helmholtz free energy and the equilibrium site occupation. Most importantly, both functionals are semi-local, so that they are independent from the size of the system under investigation and can be constructed over exact data for small systems. These 'exact' functionals are numerically defined by neural networks. We also define additional neural networks for finite-temperature thermodynamical quantities, such as the entropy and heat capacity. These can be either a functional of the ground-state site occupation or of the finite-temperature equilibrium site occupation. In the first case their equilibrium value does not correspond to an extremal point of the functional, while it does in the second case. Our work gives us access to finite-temperature properties of many-body systems in the thermodynamic limit.

description: No abstracts are to be cited without prior reference to the author.The Angola Dome is a thermal cyclonic eddy which occurs during the southern hemisphere summer (January-April). It is centred around 10°S, lOOE. This Dome is featured by the cold, upwelled water (20°C) at 20 rn depth, compared to the warm water (28°C} in the surroundings. It is also featured by a low salinity and high oxygen concentration at the same depth. Unfortunately it has no surface signature, and is therefore not observed by satellite remote sensing. It has a counterpart in northern hemisphere, the Guinea Dome centred at 10°N, 20°W (50 m depth) in July-September. Although the driving forces of the Angola Dome is poorly understood , it is believed to be related to the South East Trade Winds and the Equatorial Current Systems. The Dome was surveyed in February-March 1996 cruise with the RIV 'Dr Fridtjof Nansen'. At this occasion it was displaced towards South East (12°S, l l0E) compared to previous observations. Its dynamic structure as density distribution and geostrophic velocity is discussed. As the Angola Dome is considered as an open ocean upwelling system, it may be a region of high productivity, and thus serve as a nursery area for fish.

description: In practise, it is often desirable to provide the decision-maker with a rich set of diverse solutions of decent quality instead of just a single solution. In this paper we study evolutionary diversity optimization for the knapsack problem (KP). Our goal is to evolve a population of solutions that all have a profit of at least $(1-\varepsilon)\cdot OPT$, where OPT is the value of an optimal solution. Furthermore, they should differ in structure with respect to an entropy-based diversity measure. To this end we propose a simple $(μ+1)$-EA with initial approximate solutions calculated by a well-known FPTAS for the KP. We investigate the effect of different standard mutation operators and introduce biased mutation and crossover which puts strong probability on flipping bits of low and/or high frequency within the population. An experimental study on different instances and settings shows that the proposed mutation operators in most cases perform slightly inferior in the long term, but show strong benefits if the number of function evaluations is severely limited.

description: Multi band photometry and light curve analysis for two newly recognized contact binary systems, TYC 6995-813-1 and NSVS 13602901 are presented. Both were found to be of extreme low mass ratios 0.11 and 0.17, respectively. The secondary components of both systems show evidence of considerable evolution with elevated densities as well as both luminosity and radii well above their main sequence counterparts. Even in the absence of significant spot activity at least one of the systems, TYC 6995-813-1, shows features of magnetic and chromospheric activity. TYC 6995-813-1 is also determined to be a potential merger candidate with its current separation near the theoretical instability separation.

description: Anomalous X-ray Pulsars (AXPs) belong to a class of neutron stars believed to harbor the strongest magnetic fields in the universe, as indicated by their energetic bursts and their rapid spindowns. However, an unambiguous measurement of their surface field strengths has not been made to date. It is also not known whether AXP outbursts result from changes in the neutron star magnetic field or crust properties. Here we report a spectroscopic measurement of the surface magnetic field strength of an AXP, XTE J1810$-$197, and solidify its magnetar nature. The field strength obtained from detailed spectral analysis and modeling, B = (2.72$\pm$0.03)$\times10^{14}$ G, is remarkably close to the value inferred from the rate of spindown of this source and remains nearly constant during numerous observations spanning over an order of magnitude in source flux. The surface temperature, on the other hand, declines steadily and dramatically following the 2003 outburst of this source. Our findings demonstrate that heating occurs in the upper neutron star crust during an outburst and sheds light on the transient behaviour of AXPs.

description: We present the findings of the 0.7(2e2/h) feature in the hole quantum conductance staircase that is caused by silicon one-dimensional channels prepared by the split-gate method inside the p-type silicon quantum well (SQW) on the n-type Si (100) surface. Firstly, the interplay of the spin depolarisation with the evolution of the 0.7(2e2/h) feature from the e2/h to 3/2 e2/h values as a function of the sheet density of holes is revealed by the quantum point contact connecting two 2D reservoirs in the p-type SQW. The 1D holes are demonstrated to be spin-polarised at low sheet density, because the 0.7(2e2/h) feature is close to the value of 0.5(2e2/h) that indicates the spin degeneracy lifting for the first step of the quantum conductance staircase. The 0.7(2e2/h) feature is found to take however the value of 0.75(2e2/h) when the sheet density increases thereby giving rise to the spin depolarisation of the 1D holes. Secondly, the amplitude and phase sensitivity of the 0.7(2e2/h) feature are studied by varying the value of the external magnetic field and the top gate voltage that are applied perpendicularly to the plane of the double-slit ring embedded in the p-type SQW, with the extra quantum point contact inserted in the one of its arms. The Aharonov-Bohm (AB) and the Aharonov-Casher (AC) conductance oscillations obtained are evidence of the interplay of the spontaneous spin polarisation and the Rashba spin-orbit interaction (SOI) in the formation of the 0.7(2e2/h) feature. Finally, the variations of the 0.7(2e2/h) feature caused by the Rashba SOI are found to take in the fractional form with both the plateaux and steps as a function of the top gate voltage.

description: In this paper we show a systematical method to obtain exact solutions of the nonautonomous nonlinear Schrödinger (NLS) equation. An integrable condition is first obtained by the Painlevè analysis, which is shown to be consistent with that obtained by the Lax pair method. Under this condition, we present a general transformation, which can directly convert all allowed exact solutions of the standard NLS equation into the corresponding exact solutions of the nonautonomous NLS equation. The method is quite powerful since the standard NLS equation has been well studied in the past decades and its exact solutions are vast in the literature. The result provides an effective way to control the soliton dynamics. Finally, the fundamental bright and dark solitons are taken as examples to demonstrate its explicit applications.

description: Byron as a poet, aristocrat, and Romantic, began as all the other poets of his time, in a traditional fashion. But unlike the other poets, Byron began to develop a heroine who would become a voice for the realities of society. Despite the fact that Byron had many love affairs, he also respected women, believing in their right of autonomy within society. He considered them his equal, relishing lively debates with them on many topics. Byron's heroines embodied sentimentalism, integrity, morality and intelligence, which in turn subtlety influenced society to respect a woman's desire to openly express her emotions. What Byron promoted was the respect men would eventually have for women. He helped society to realize that women were people. Through the sentimentalism portrayed in his heroine, Byron also contributed to women's ability to integrate intellectual development into their traditional domestic roles and to "develop a literary expression of their own" through authorship (Rogers 144).

description: Coherent scattering of an elliptically polarised tweezer into a cavity mode provides a promising platform for cooling levitated nanoparticles into their combined rotational and translational quantum regime [Phys. Rev. Lett. 126, 163603 (2021)]. This article presents the theory of how aspherical nanoparticles are affected by elliptically polarised laser beams, how two orthogonal cavity modes enable rotational and translational cooling, and how the resulting power spectra contain signatures of rotational non-linearities. We provide analytic expressions for the resulting trapping frequencies, opto-mechanical coupling strengths, cooling rates, and steady-state occupations and we study their dependence on the tweezer ellipticity.

description: We construct consistent bosonic higher-spin gauge theories in odd dimensions D>3 based on Chern-Simons forms. The gauge groups are infinite-dimensional higher-spin extensions of the Anti-de Sitter groups SO(D-1,2). We propose an invariant tensor on these algebras, which is required for the definition of the Chern-Simons action. The latter contains the purely gravitational Chern-Simons theories constructed by Chamseddine, and so the entire theory describes a consistent coupling of higher-spin fields to a particular form of Lovelock gravity. It contains topological as well as non-topological phases. Focusing on D=5 we consider as an example for the latter an AdS_4 x S^1 Kaluza-Klein background. By solving the higher-spin torsion constraints in the case of a spin-3 field, we verify explicitly that the equations of motion reduce in the linearization to the compensator form of the Fronsdal equations on AdS_4.

description: The resistivity and the Hall effect in the copper-oxide high-temperature superconductor YBa$_{2}$Cu$_{3}$O$_{7-δ}$ (YBCO) are remarkably anisotropic. Using a thin film of YBCO grown on an off-axis cut SrTiO$_3$ substrate allows one to investigate these anisotropic transport properties in a planar and well-defined sample geometry employing a homogeneous current density. In the normal state, the Hall voltage probed parallel to the copper-oxide layers is positive and strongly temperature dependent, whereas the out-of-plane Hall voltage is negative and almost temperature independent. The results confirm previous measurements on single crystals by an entirely different measurement method and demonstrate that vicinal thin films might be also useful for investigations of other layered nanomaterials.

description: The environmental consequence of natural aggregate exploitation and Agro-base waste management especially open-air incineration is immense. In this research a mathematical model was developed to optimize the mixture design of concrete using Palm Kernel Shells PKS as partial (60%) replacement in composite coarse aggregate of palm kernel shell and crushed granite (PKSCG) to forester environmental sustainability. The research work is to optimize the split tensile strength of Palm Kernel Shell aggregate modified concrete based on improved Scheffe`s second degree polynomial, where the strength was obtained for various ratios using the Scheffe`s simplex lattice method. To test for the adequacy of the model, student`s t-test and Fishers (ANOVA) were used where the results of test indicates that the model strengths are generally in good conformity with the corresponding observed experimental results. The optimised tensile strength by the model at 28 days of curing within the factor space was 1.06481Mpa, while the experimental results yield a maximum and minimum strength of 1.0963 MPa and 0.5658N MPa at same curing period with corresponding to mix ratio of [0.625:1.0:1.925:1.09:1.635]and [0.675:1.0:2.15:1.22:1.83] respectively for water, cement, fine aggregate, granite and PKS respectively. The coefficients of determination (𝑅2) was 99.99% for the split tensile response models, while the p-value obtained for the response coefficient fit parameters 𝛽𝑖, 𝛽𝑖𝑗, 𝛽𝑖𝑗𝑘 for (𝑖=1,2,3,4,5) was 99.98% for the modelled strength. Wolfram Mathematica application was used for data fitting and optimization computation. The Scheffe`s optimization theory can be used to analyse and optimise concrete strength and possible mix proportions of concrete ingredient as the comparison of the split tensile strengths obtained between the laboratory test results and the model results show a good pact, consequently indicating that the optimisation equations can sufficiently predict the mechanical properties of the concrete at 28 days of curing. The palm kernel shells modified concrete is appropriate for applications necessitating Low- strength Concrete (LSC), and non-structural light weight concrete.

description: The magnetic properties of a monolayer of Mn12 single molecule magnets grafted onto a Si substrate have been investigated using depth-controlled $β$-detected nuclear magnetic resonance. A low energy beam of spin polarized radioactive 8Li was used to probe the local static magnetic field distribution near the Mn12 monolayer in the Si substrate. The resonance linewidth varies strongly as a function of implantation depth as a result of the magnetic dipolar fields generated by the Mn12 electronic magnetic moments. The temperature dependence of the linewidth indicates that the magnetic properties of the Mn12 moments in this low dimensional configuration differ from bulk Mn12.

description: Religion has always been considered an indispensable element in Albania, because it gives meaning to the life of the people and because it has always been closely linked to albanesity. Albanesity unites the people and religion gives meaning to people's lives, because it indicates values and priorities. Albanesity and religion define identity character of People and they are the interior strength, which has allowed to overcome many difficulties and crises. The particular link between religion and identity has also attributed to religious communities a public role in the construction of culture and society. They played a public role for social dialogue and for the construction of a free and democratic society. In Albaniathe mission of religions was not only spiritual, but cultural and social, expanded to concrete existential problems with the aim of giving answers to the needs of the people. They have allied themselves to build a different and better Albanian society to affirm the value of human dignity and people's rights of freedom. Dialogue between religions is fostered by the common goal: ie to protect personal freedom, religious freedom, democratic development and social well-being. Dialogue and tolerance between religions are a civil method of coexistence and answer to the needs inside the country. Dialogue between religions has certainly made it possible to protect the fundamental rights of the human person, encouraging cultural growth and a more adequate state legislation to guarantee the dignity of the person in a context that has known atheism and persecution for many years. Religious peace and dialogue among religions are elements of democracy, which inAlbania represent the conquest of status and dignity, considering the lack of experience about meaning of the word democracy. The Albanian experience, similar to that of the Balkan countries, demonstrates the need to rethink the concept of democracy and its peculiar assets. It is necessary to understand that the democratic path after the dictatorship passes through the recovery of the religious and historical identity of the people. In this way they can live constitutional values. Interreligious dialogue, therefore, in addition to the intrinsic purposes intended for the reconstruction of a stable network of relations between religions, in Albania constitutes a consolidated instrument of the suitable daily experience, despite the critical and repeated socio-political difficulties, to favor the establishment of the values of democracy, to support efforts for peace and tolerance, to foster the development of people and to support the integration process in society.

description: No abstracts are to be cited without prior reference to the author.Most TS-measurements on fish has been carried out for 38 kHz, and the existing TS algorithm for 120 kHz for cod (Gadus morlma, L.) is based on measurements on stunned fish. The main objective of the present experiments has been to establish an empirical estimate of the relation between acoustic reflection (target strength, TS) and length of live juvenile cod (0-group, 7-10 cm TTL; and 1 group, 15-20 cm TTL) at 120 kHz. This was done by recording the variation in TS of cod performing natural swimming behavior tracking single fish target􀅿 within the acoustic beam field. The experiment was set up in a large open air 2000 m tank and designed to assure as high a degree of natural swimming behavior as possible. The fish were kept in cages (1 x 1 x 3 m) and an EY500 split beam acoustic system was used to detect single fish passing· through the acoustic beam. The acoustic beam field was video recorded in order to isolate the measurements on single targets. The temperature and salinity in the tank was monitored during the experiments. This paper presents the TS values obtained for the smaller cod (7-10 cm). The results of the complete study are expected to increase the quality of the density • estimates of juvenile cod obtained during the acoustic surveys carried out as a part of the AIR Baltic CORE project.
Il rapporto tra appartenenza religiosa e persecuzione per motivi religiosi

description: Geographical mobility is a phenomenon that has always accompanied the history of humanity and has profoundly influenced the modernization of Western societies and the birth of state communities.

 In today's global society, migration has established itself as one of the main factors in the transformation of our societies. In addition to being a demographic phenomenon, they act, with their transformative potential, at all levels of social life: from the economic, political-institutional to the cultural and identity level.

After the fall of the bipolar system globalization (of the economy) and globalization (of culture, religion, media) have favored the circulation of different cultural visions and practices, imposing changes in social environments characterized by homologous cultural dynamics. This also generates a sense of uncertainty and precariousness and for this reason the concept of religious belonging, understood as an expression of the bond of the person with a religious community, considered essential and not to be renounced, becomes increasingly important.

All this leads to a new requalification and position of the person and his rights, including his right to democratic participation in a broader national context, in which frequently the lack of points of constitutional reference gives greater value to the spaces in which the membership expresses itself with a tension and a dynamic of high participation.

In this long phase of change, the intensification of religious intolerance and the fear that the practice or profession of a certain faith can endanger one's life push both individuals and entire groups of people to flee their country of origin to ask for protection elsewhere.

Faced with the increase in requests for international protection, the national legal systems replied making the rules for entry and stay within their territory increasingly inflexible.

description: The double Schur functions form a distinguished basis of the ring Λ(x||a) which is a multiparameter generalization of the ring of symmetric functions Λ(x). The canonical comultiplication on Λ(x) is extended to Λ(x||a) in a natural way so that the double power sums symmetric functions are primitive elements. We calculate the dual Littlewood-Richardson coefficients in two different ways thus providing comultiplication rules for the double Schur functions. We also prove multiparameter analogues of the Cauchy identity. A new family of Schur type functions plays the role of a dual object in the identities. We describe some properties of these dual Schur functions including a combinatorial presentation and an expansion formula in terms of the ordinary Schur functions. The dual Littlewood-Richardson coefficients provide a multiplication rule for the dual Schur functions.

description: We study the current-induced torques in asymmetric magnetic tunnel junctions containing a conventional ferromagnet and a magnetic Weyl semimetal contact. The Weyl semimetal hosts chiral bulk states and topologically protected Fermi arc surface states which were found to govern the voltage behavior and efficiency of current-induced torques. We report how bulk chirality dictates the sign of the non-equilibrium torques acting on the ferromagnet and discuss the existence of large field-like torques acting on the magnetic Weyl semimetal which exceeds the theoretical maximum of conventional magnetic tunnel junctions. The latter are derived from the Fermi arc spin texture and display a counter-intuitive dependence on the Weyl nodes separation. Our results shed light on the new physics of multilayered spintronic devices comprising of magnetic Weyl semimetals, which might open doors for new energy efficient spintronic devices.

description: We clarify the internal relationship between the coherent destruction of tunneling (CDT) for a two-state model and the dynamic localization (DL) for a one-dimensional tight-binding model, under the periodical driving field. The time-evolution of the tight-binding model is reproduced from that of the two-state model by a mapping of equation of motion onto a set of ${\rm SU}(2)$ operators. It is shown that DL is effectively an infinitely large dimensional representation of the CDT in the ${\rm SU}(2)$ operators. We also show that both of the CDT and the DL can be interpreted as a result of destructive interference in repeated Landau-Zener level-crossings.

description: No abstracts are to be cited without prior reference to the author.The economic and historical significance of the directed Pacific halibut (Hippoglossus stenolepis) fishery in the Northeast Pacific (e.g., IPHC 1992, 1994) was a major consideration in making the retention of halibut illegal for non-directed fisheries (e.g., trawl fisheries). This action has resulted in a significant amount of halibut discard (IPHC 1994). A certain proportion of these discarded halibut die (IPHC 1994; Richards et al. 1995; Pikitch et al. 1996), resulting in considerable losses to both the directed and nondirected fisheries.

description: The recent development of dynamic single-electron sources makes it possible to observe and manipulate the quantum properties of individual charge carriers in mesoscopic circuits. Here, we investigate multi-particle effects in an electronic Mach-Zehnder interferometer driven by dynamic voltage pulses. To this end, we employ a Floquet scattering formalism to evaluate the interference current and the visibility in the outputs of the interferometer. An injected multi-particle state can be described by its first-order correlation function, which we decompose into a sum of elementary correlation functions that each represent a single particle. Each particle in the pulse contributes independently to the interference current, while the visibility (determined by the maximal interference current) exhibits a Fraunhofer-like diffraction pattern caused by the multi-particle interference between different particles in the pulse. For a sequence of multi-particle pulses, the visibility resembles the diffraction pattern from a grid, with the role of the grid and the spacing between the slits being played by the pulses and the time delay between them. Our findings may be observed in future experiments by injecting multi-particle pulses into an electronic Mach-Zehnder interferometer.

description: Während der 90er-Jahre kam es in Japan zu einem großen sozialen Wandel, welcher bestimmte Gesellschaftsgruppen immer stärker in das Blickfeld der Öffentlichkeit rückte. Während die Leitmedien des Landes die Entwicklung eher negativ beschrieben, gibt es ein Medienformat das sich auf eine ganz andere Weise den sozialen Bewegungen näherte: Japanische Animationsfilme. Als Medienformat, welches das Potenzial hat, sich mit Themen und Menschen zu befassen, die im dominanten Mediendiskurs keinen Platz zu finden scheinen, ist es relevant die Logik dieser Filme genauer zu untersuchen. Das Ziel der Arbeit war es herauszufinden, wie die beiden Untergrundgruppen der Obdachlosen und der Mafia Japans in Animationsfilmen der 90er- bzw. frühen 2000er-Jahre dargestellt wurden. Dabei wurde vermutet, dass Animationsfilme diese Menschen positiver und surrealistischer abbilden als andere Medienformen. Die Vermutung stütze sich auf die Erkenntnis, dass Unterhaltungsmedien nach einer anderen Logik zu funktionieren scheinen als seriöse Medien, sowohl was die Nähe zur Realität als auch die Darstellung von sozialen Randfiguren angeht. Immer wieder zeigt sich in ihnen eine Romantisierung und Dramatisierung des sozialen Außenseiters. Um zu überprüfen, ob diese Darstellungstendenz auch auf das Unterhaltungsformat der Animationsfilme zutrifft, wurden zwei japanische Animationsfilme - "Tokyo Godfathers" und "Tekkonkinkreet" - auf Basis der qualitativen Methode einer Diskursanalyse hinsichtlich ihrer Darstellung von Untergrundgruppen analysiert. Die beiden Filme wurden mit der Hilfe eines Kategoriensystems auf fünf Punkte hin untersucht, wobei Michel Foucaults „Formationsregeln“ als methodisches Werkzeug seiner Diskurstheorie als Basis für die Kategorien gedient haben. Die Analyse ergab, dass die beiden Animationsfilme die zwei untersuchten Untergrundgruppen wie vermutet übergreifend positiver und surrealistischer darstellen. Anders als die japanischen Leitmedien der 90er-Jahre, nutzen die beiden Filme diverse Mittel, um ihre Charaktere als im Grunde gute Menschen zu zeigen. Obgleich vieler realistischer Elemente, werden beide Untergrundgruppen in den Filmen in fantasievolle, surrealistische Abenteuer verstrickt, die sie als Menschen reifen und sie mit ihren Problemen konfrontieren lässt. Reale Probleme und Narrative der Gruppen, die meist ungewollt im Schatten der Gesellschaft leben, werden vielseitiger und emotionaler vorgestellt und es wird, wie auch in anderen Unterhaltungsmedien, immer wieder auf den Stereotypen des guten Außenseiters oder Bösewichts und eine Romantisierung dieser Figuren zurückgegriffen.

description: The introduction in EU directives of 2014 on Contracts and public procurement of the principle of ' free administration of public authorities ' significantly impacts on the national concept of recourse to the instrument of inhouseproviding by the pp. aa. Regional and local authorities for the performance of services of general economic interest. The use of the in house seems to return in the "ordinary" availability of the public administrations, constrained to only respect the “European” conditions that contemplate it. The Italian legislator, however, at the time of transposition of the aforementioned directives, seems to have no particular emphasis to it.

description: No abstracts are to be cited without prior reference to the author.Catches of Greenland halibut in East Greenland and Iceland have reached a considerably high level in the last decade due to increased effort mainly by trawlers. Associated with these high catches are a steady decrease in SSB towards a critical low level. This has led to serious concern about e:-..l)loitation level as well as exploitation pattern on the resource. In order to evaluate the potential for gears which e:-..l)loit older components of the Greenland halibut stock. a trial fishery with gill nets using 110 mm and 120 mm mesh sizes was carried out in August 1995. Although more than 7000 fish were caught by alternate use of the t
n mesh sizes no distinct mesh selection appeared. Due to difference in fishing power. an approximate selectivity factor was estimated at 6.86 by the method of Holt (1963), which is close to Yalues seen for Greenland halibut elsewhere and for other flatfish .

description: No abstracts are to be cited without prior reference to the author.Results of this work showed that at least 2-caging days were required to detect most trawl-caused deaths. Results of the control group (pot-caught sablefish) showed that caging caused mortality when corifineme􀉀t exceeded 4 days. The second field seasori will take place during August and September 1997 to measure survival of discarded sablefish over a wide range of fishing and handling conditions. Only 1996 results are presented herein.
