Electron microscopy (EM), with the advent of computer control and image analysis techniques, is rapidly evolving from an interpretative science into a quantitative technique. Electron microscopy is potentially of value in two general aspects of environmental health: exposure and diagnosis.In diagnosis, electron microscopy is essentially an extension of optical microscopy. The goal is to characterize cellular changes induced by external agents. The external agent could be any foreign material, chemicals, or even stress. The use of electron microscopy as a diagnostic tool is well- developed, but computer-controlled electron microscopy (CCEM) has had only limited impact, mainly because it is fairly new and many institutions lack the resources to acquire the capability. In addition, major contributions to diagnosis will come from CCEM only when image analysis (IA) and processing algorithms are developed which allow the morphological and textural changes recognized by experienced medical practioners to be quantified. The application of IA techniques to compare cellular structure is still in a primitive state.


During his lifetime, Nikolai Rimsky-Korsakov (1844–1908) was a composer whose work had great influence not only in his native Russia but also internationally. While he remains well-known in Russia—where many of his fifteen operas and various orchestral pieces are still in the standard repertoire—very little of his work is performed in the West today beyond Scheherezade and arrangements of The Flight of the Bumblebee. In Western writings, he appears mainly in the context of the Mighty Handful, a group of five Russian composers to which he belonged at the outset of his career. This book finally gives the composer center stage and due attention. In this book, Rimsky-Korsakov's major operas, The Snow Maiden, Mozart and Salieri, and The Golden Cockerel, receive multifaceted exploration and are carefully contextualized within the wider Russian culture of the era. The discussion of these operas is accompanied and enriched by the composer's letters to Nadezhda Zabela-Vrubel, the distinguished soprano for whom he wrote several leading roles. Other chapters look at more general aspects of Rimsky-Korsakov's work and examine his far-reaching legacy as a professor of composition and orchestration, including his impact on his most famous pupil Igor Stravinsky.

Overview:   This document provides a summary of a practical method that can be used to compare handwriting (whether text-based or signatures) in the forensic environment. It is intended to serve as an approach to forensic handwriting examination for practitioners actively involved in casework, or for those interested in investigating general aspects of the practice of forensic handwriting examination (for example researchers, academics and legal professionals). The method proposed does not cover in detail all aspects of the examination of handwriting. It does, however, form the framework of forensic handwriting methodology in the government environment in Australia and New Zealand as represented by the Document Examination Specialist Advisory Group (DocSAG). It is noted from the outset that handwriting is examined using complex human perceptual and cognitive processes that can be difficult to accurately and validly describe in written form since, for the most part, these processes are hidden. What is presented here is the agreed general approach that DocSAG practitioners use in the majority of the comparisons that they carry out. The method is based around a flow diagram which structures the comparison process and provides the reader with a guide as to the significant landmark stages commonly worked through in practical handwriting examinations. Where decision points occur within the course of the method flow diagram a series of modules have been developed which describe the nature of the decision under consideration and address relevant theoretical and practical issues. Each module is, as far as is practical, independent of other modules in the method. This assists in facilitating changes in the process over time that may result from theoretical, practical or technological advances in the field. Purchase Volume 26 - Special Issue - $40

In the article, the author analyzes the modern model of the phenomenon of a monument of history and culture. The author notes that, as carriers of social information, monuments are considered the most popular phenomena that implement the «memory» function in them. If we pay attention to the equivalents of the word «memory» in other languages, then there is no need for further argumentation for this view. Taking into account that the expression “monument of history and culture” itself has a special paradigm of analysis, there is an initial need to analyze the concept of «memory». The author analyzing the correlation of the concept of «abide» with the concepts of «monument», «monument» reveals the general aspects of this phenomenon. The purpose of the article is to attribute the monument of history and culture to the category of cultural heritage. The initial goal of the science of the study of monuments, which began its formation in the late 80s of the last century in post-Soviet countries, especially in Moscow and Leningrad, was initiated by scientists P. Boyarsky, A. Kulemzin, A. Dyachkov, etc., namely the theoretical the study of the scientific essence of this phenomenon. The author noted that since the second half of the last century, historical and cultural monuments have become the object of research in many sciences, such as philosophy, sociology, history, the study of art and culture, pedagogy, philology, natural science, etc. Key words: abide, historical and cultural monument, cultural heritage, memory. Аналізується сучасна модель феномена пам’ятка історії і культури. Автор зазначає, що як носії соціальної інформації пам’ятки вважаються найбільш популярними явищами, які реалізують у них функцію «пам’яті». Якщо звернути увагу на еквіваленти слова «пам’ять» в інших мовах, то немає необхідності в подальшій аргументації для цього погляду. Беручи до уваги, що саме слово «пам’ятка історії і культури» має особливу парадигму аналізу, існує необхідність аналізу поняття «пам’яті». Автор аналізуючи співвідношення поняття «Абиде» з поняттями «пам’ятник», «монумент» виявляє загальні аспекти цього явище. Мета статті – відносити пам’ятку історії і культури до категорію культурної спадщини. Початкова мета науки про вивчення пам’яток почала своє становлення наприкінці 80-х роках минулого століття в пострадянських країнах, особливо в Москві та Ленінграді з ініціативи вчених П. Боярського, А. Кулезмін, А. Дьячков та ін.. Автор зауважив, що починаючи з другої половини минулого століття пам’ятки історії і культури стали об’єктом досліджень багатьох наук, зокрема таких як філософія, соціологія, історія мистецтва та культури, педагогіка, філологія, природознавство. Ключові слова: Абиде, пам’ятка історії та культури, культурна спадщина, пам’ять.
