The subject transformation of Ukrainian geographical science demonstrates the strengthening of the monistic approach, which considers the Earth’s envelope as an integral socio-natural geosphere, in which the natural environment and man with his economic and spiritual activity are inextricably linked. Accordingly, one of the main directions of modern methodological developments is the geographical sciences systematization according to their composition and their multilevel ordering on the basis of the unity and integrity of the common object of geographical research - the landscape envelope of the Earth. The article proposes the authors’ scheme of the modern system of geographical sciences, in which the structuring of geographical researches directions is carried out according to the following basic principles: a) the system of geographical sciences is developed not in the list of relevant subjects and disciplines, but in the main areas of geographical research; b) the theoretical and methodological core of the geographical sciences system should be the direction of general integrated geographical research; c) directions of geographical researches and corresponding subject areas and disciplines are organized according to the levels of the landscape envelope structural organization and divided into global (geospheric), regional (country studies, regional studies) and local (environmental and socio-natural activities); d) the proposed systematics does not directly take into account the traditional division of geographical sciences and disciplines into basic - auxiliary - servicing.

Crowdfunding platforms direct millions of dollars annually to schools across the country, but the scholarly and policy communities have a limited understanding of their operations. In this paper we leverage data from DonorsChoose and the Common Core of Data to examine the characteristics of schools whose teachers do and do not submit projects to DonorsChoose, the subject areas and resource requests of these projects, and the characteristics of projects that achieve full funding. We find that teachers in schools serving disadvantaged student populations in the lowest-spending states are most likely to post projects on DonorsChoose. Despite accounting for a majority of submitted projects, math and reading projects are less likely to reach full funding than those in other subject areas.

The subject of creation was neglected in theological debate for a long time. Only about 35 years ago, when the so-called ecological crisis manifested itself, creation began to appear in the center of theological interest. Some authors tried to accuse Christianity that the theology of creation is responsible for the crisis of the natural environment. Because of this accusation, the science of creation had to take a stand on the issue of ecology. The future of the Earth and its inhabitants depends not on the beginnings of the Universe, but on our present-day actions and attitudes. So, the dialog between natural sciences and theology entered the so-called „third phase” of their relation: the phase of necessary collaboration in the ecological crisis, the dialog between theology and natural sciences must have an ecological character, for at stake is the common future of this world, in which natural sciences and technology are part of God’s creation.

This study tries to handle the energy issue with an encompassing managerial approach with a broader perspective. In the study, which aims to contribute to the evaluation of the subject from the perspective of entrepreneurship and business administration, efforts are made to explain energy by using the basic principles/approaches that are significant in the business literature. Vital issues such as energy production and energy management are handled based on managerial discipline. It takes care to bring together many different approaches that can be associated with the subject, touching upon essential concerns such as consumption, market, and competition factors. Since the matter can differ in short and long-term outlooks, the concepts of energy and strategy are examined together. In this way, because it stands within the common field of many disciplines, it is desired to make a journey to energy not only with the perspective of the basic science but also through the viewpoint of the social sciences. And the connotations of the concept of energy are deepened.

<p>The article contributes to the study of implementation of the genre traditions of the Russian Medieval literature in the prose of the second half of the twentieth century, specifies categorical coordinates and challenges research approaches, artificially separating a single movement of Russian literature from the time of Ilarion and Avvakum to the present day. On the example of V.&nbsp;P.&nbsp;Astafiev&rsquo;s book &ldquo;Zatesi&rdquo; which united the writer's small prose on the principle of cyclization of works based on the common stylistic and thematic features, the author comes to the conclusion about the artistic relevance of this technique, which originates in the medieval collections, in the aspiration of their compilers to work &ldquo;outside of genre traditions&rdquo; (D.&nbsp;S.&nbsp;Likhachev). But if in the Middle Ages this aspiration is more due to the subject-thematic tasks, in the New and Modern times the super-genre unity of the collection, of the book is a&nbsp;result of strengthening the compositional role of the author in their structural organization and the individualization of his image.</p>


While carrying out experiments on the artificial induction of cell-division, I had occasion to examine the seminal vesicles of the common earth-worm, when I noticed that certain epithelial cells contained within their cytoplasm structures similar to those known as “Kurloff's bodies” found in the blood-cells of guinea-pigs. These Kurloff's bodies have recently been shown to be parasites, to which the name of Lymyphocytozoon cobayæ has been given. In their early stages, they are parasites of the mononuclear cells (lymphocytes) of the blood of the guinea-pig. As described in the paper on the subject (E. H. Boss, 1912), they undergo development in definite stages in the lymphocyte, and ultimately become free-swimming spirochæte-like bodies in the blood-plasma. Having assisted in the investigation of the development of these so-called Kurloff's bodies, I was struck with the similarity between them and the new structures seen in the epithelial cells of the seminal vesicles of the earthworm, and the matter was further investigated. I am now convinced that these structures in the earth-worm also represent phases in the life-cycle of a new parasite which is very similar in its developmental figures to lymyphocytozoon cobayæ

The article presents a methodological approach to studying iterative processes in the school course of geometry, by the example of constructing a Koch snowflake fractal curve and calculating a few characteristics of it. The interactive creative environment 1C:MathKit is chosen to visualize the method discussed. By performing repetitive constructions and algebraic calculations using ICT tools, students acquire a steady skill of work with geometric objects of various levels of complexity, comprehend the possibilities of mathematical interpretation of iterative processes in practice, and learn how to understand the dialectical unity between finite and infinite parameters of flat geometric figures. When students are getting familiar with such contradictory concepts and categories, that replenishes their experience of worldview comprehension of the subject areas they study through the concept of “big ideas”. The latter allows them to take a fresh look at the processes in the world around. The article is a matter of interest to schoolteachers of computer science and mathematics, as well as university scholars who teach the course “Concepts of modern natural sciences”.

Subject. The article focuses on the advanced time-driven tools for allocating overhead expenses, which are based on process-based budgeting. Objectives. We articulate a technique for cost allocation so as to assess the cost of each process with reference to the common time driver. Methods. The study relies upon methods of systematization, classification, analogy and comparison, and summarizes the scientific literature on the subject. Results. The article presents our own suggestions on implementing TD-ABC and TD-ABB into the strategic management accounting process of developer companies. The principles were proved to help more effectively allocate overhead expenses and assess the capacity load of each process performed by functions, departments and employees. Carrying out a comparative analysis, we found certain reserves for utilizing resources more effectively. Conclusions and Relevance. The findings are of scientific and practical significance and can be used by developer and construction businesses. The conclusions can prove helpful for scientific papers, student books, and further research.

The Jewish Canadian writer Miriam Waddington returned repeatedly to the subject of the Spanish Civil War, searching for hope amid the ruins of Spanish democracy. The conflict, a prelude to World War II, inspired an outpouring of literature and volunteerism. My paper argues for Waddington’s unique poetic perspective, in which she represents the Holocaust as the Spanish Civil War’s outgrowth while highlighting the deeply personal repercussions of the war – consequences for women, for the earth, and for community. Waddington’s poetry connects women’s rights to human rights, Canadian peace to European war, and Jewish persecution to Spanish carnage.
