Atmospheric Seeing

The subject of this symposium is the fine structure of the solar chromosphere. Progress in this field of reserach will depend to a high degree of the quality of seeing, resp. on the effective angular resolution available on the ground. Today's situation of solar ground seeing has changed distinctly in the last years. I would like to report here a few new aspects, which could be condensed into 3 questions: (1)Are there on the ground ‘good seeing windows’, comparable in quality with stratosphere results obtained from balloon borne equipment?(2)Is there a chance to resolve from the ground the solar scale height, corresponding to about 0.1″.(3)Is there a residual fundamental atmospheric seeing noise resp. a basic limit to the atmospheric Modulation Transfer Function (MTF)?

Impossible Task

The purpose of this prologue is to outline how I have approached the arrogant and impossible task of surveying an unborn century of law. I may also be able to illustrate that the nature and quality of the task is completely different from that attempted in the preceding papers. In the whole paper I have done little more than infer repeatedly, in different ways (a) that the shape of the future so far as law is concerned will be determined by the methods of communication adopted between sectors of the aerospace community and between the aerospace community and society at large, and (b) that the search for effective methods of communication is urgent. But my target is not the lawyers of our community—who I am not qualified to advise. I write for the other members of the Royal Aeronautical Society and I return to the task of persuading them that they have a role to play in evolving future laws for aerospace activities.

This is an interim, summary and provisional judgment on the Brazilian experiment of the past nine years, that is, since the military took power on April 1, 1964. To try to give an impression of the results of the interaction among the values of political democracy, equality, and economic growth, and the present levels compared with those of 1964 as well as what appear to be the trends. I have chosen six “indicators”:(1)the autonomy and integrity of the legal system;(2)torture and police brutality;(3)freedom of the mass media;(4)income distribution patterns;(5)education distribution patterns; and(6)the quality of life of the people of the city of greater São Paulo.

Abstract Keeping pace with recent developments in the rubber industry in general, various organic accelerators of good quality have been invented one after another, nearly one hundred different kinds of them being now put on the market. Though most of these accelerators, even when used singly, are satisfactory for regulating the time of vulcanization and improving the quality of vulcanizates, the combined use of two accelerators has come to be the subject of rubber chemists interested in this field, in order to obtain more. efficient results on vulcanization. Thiollet and Martin (Caout., 26, 14,494 (1929)) and W. Norris (Ind. Rubber World,82, No. 2, 535 (1930)) have already published the results of experiments on the combined effect of organic accelerators, and state that in vulcanization they behave in a different manner from any single accelerators used separately. In these investigations, however, rather impure chemicals on the market were incorporated in rubber stocks, and only in arbitrary proportions, regardless of the proportions corresponding to their chemical constitutions.

The Title of this paper presupposes the existence of the most important and fundamental document, namely a clear specification of design requirements.The normal sequence of activities after receipt of the specification is as follows: — Design.Prototype and Experimental batch manufacture.Development (and Approval Testing).Production.Customers’ Use.The function of Design and Development determines the ability of the design to meet the specification, and this can be classified as the “Quality of Design.”

Growth of Chicken-Embryos. Das Wachstum des Hühnerembryos in Abhängigkeit von verschiedenen Temperaturen und Feuchtigkeitsgraden im Brutapparat. N. M. Schkljar. Archiv für Geflügelkunde, 1935, No. 5.Summary:1.A completely regular and strong growth of the hen embryos is obtained with a temperature of 38.4° C. (101.1° F.) and 64% moisture.2.A temperature of 39.9° C. (103.82° F.) and 62% moisture have a somewhat depressing effect on the developement of the embryos during the first six and last two days of the incubation, an increase in growth taking place on the 16th days.3.A high degree of moisture of 77% and a temperature of 38.3 ° C. (100.9° F.) prevent growth up to the 18th day, a decisive increase taking place after this date.4.With a low temperature of 37° C. (98.66° F.) and a moisture content of 63%, the developement of embryos remains noticeably backward, specially during the first few days. Under such conditions, as early as after the sixth day, growth in relation to the control group is delayed by two days.5.Between the increase in weigth and the developement of embryos, there exists, in an early stage, an inverted ratio of dependance.6.The rate of growth of the internal organs is not a process working within itself, but subject to the general conformity to law.7.The growth of the embryo is not the result of an uninterruped developement, but consists of a sequence of increases and depressions.

World Perspective

Evaluations of mental health services are much in demand. Their results are supposed to help in improving the quality of mental health care and in making them economically better viable.Yet, world-wide there is: 1)little agreement about the content of terms such as evaluation, mental health service, outcome of an activity although these and other terms are widely used;2)uncertainty about the best use of results of evaluative research;3)lack of consensus about who should evaluate what and by what method.

Insight Into

Abstract Low labour costs as one of the key sources of export stimulation, the competitive advantage of domestic agricultural production and bilateral agreements with partner countries - all promote export as a potentially significant factor of encouragement of economic development of the Republic of Serbia.Taking into account this fact, on the one hand, and balance of payments problems that Serbia has been facing over the years, on the other hand, the subject of this paper is an analysis of trends in the Republic of Serbia export and explanation of variations in the export trends during the period from 2004 to 2014. The aim of the paper is to explore export trends forecast from January to December 2015.The analysis uses Holt-Winters and ARIMA methods for analyszing time series.The paper provides insight into the export trend forecasts for the period of 12 months, and thus confirms the possibility of practical usage of the time series analysis methods in forecasting macroeconomic variables such as export. The used methods identify increase of export during the summer and its decrease after October 2015. The paper establishes the existence of a high degree of congruence between forecasts obtained by using two methods, which confirm a high quality of the elaborated methods in the analysis of exports.

In many medieval calendars the calendar proper for each month is preceded or followed by a verse (or several verses) treating of one (or one each) of the following subjects: (a)the zodiacal sign(b)the number of solar days(c)the number of lunar days(d)the position of the nones(e)the Greek, Hebrew, and Egyptian names(f)the Roman traditions of the name and significance of the month(g)the climatic conditions (aeris qualitates)(h)the evil days (dies Aegyptiaci).The study of medieval calendars has been so much preoccupied with their chronological and heortological aspects that, to my knowledge, these verses have never been the subject of a comprehensive investigation. In many editions they have been omitted as extraneous matter.
