Musical Cues

The article deals with the role of musical images in the poetry of Dmitry Kremen. The subject of study is the music code, which is present in many works of the poet. Musical signs, symbols, links play a significant role in vocabulary, phraseology and other ways of poetic expressiveness. Familiarity with the subject world of D. Kremin's poetic texts includes a wide range of concepts related to the world of sounds. The additional accents of a musical-conceptual thesaurus arise when musical cues form certain speech turns that acquire the meaning of metaphors. Musical signs in the lyrics of Dmitry Kremin imply awareness of a wide range of sound associations, which the poet interprets from the standpoint of his own value attitude to them. Beethoven, Chopin, Mozart are the names-symbols of the world music culture, which occupy a significant place in the thesaurus of Dmitry Kremin's poetic texts. Behind these subject designations lies the vast world of artistic and figurative generalization and lyrical and philosophical reflections that are gaining coded meaning. Familiarity with the poetry of Dmitry Kremin proves that the leitmotif of many of his texts is the image of a violin, which acquires different semantic shades. Thus, in Beethoven's poetry, the poet emphasizes the value of music as a special language, devoid of words, but empowered to embody emotional and semantic richness, and therefore capable of being the language of angels. Music code the poetry of Dmitry Kremen is a multidimensional system in which the concept of "music" acts as a concept as a set of meaningful characters and their semantic meanings. In the process of decoding Dmitry Kremin's poetry, one can discover the deep semantic loads of the musical code, on the one hand – as the embodiment of the categories of high, sublime, valuable and eternal in the human sense, on the other – as a symbol of the extra-material, mystical, language of which the angels speak. Decoding the poet's texts is the process of extracting recognition codes and perception codes. The codes of perception in the poetry of Dmitry Kremenya are meaningful loads of texts, its semantic components, which highlight the deep meanings of texts. Through the musical code, the poet embodies the content of the categories of the sublime and the beautiful. The music code shows the understanding of poetry of Dmitry Kremenin a deeply metaphorical sense.

Looking Back

This chapter reviews key intermediary liability developments in the African region to document a trend of progressive diffusion of intermediary liability protections. At the same time, the chapter highlights a parallel trend of increasing pressure on intermediaries to fulfil broad and open-ended public policy mandates. This generates a serious risk of compromising the value of intermediary protections, creating an uncertain terrain for a wide range of actors, and potentially affecting both technological progress and the creation of local content in one of the most underdeveloped regions of the world. To avert those consequences, this chapter reflects on the potential offered by the African Union in driving harmonization in the field, highlighting the advantages of the first and arguably most sophisticated model of intermediary protections in the region: the South African Electronic Communications Act.

Data Transfers

Internet intermediaries - service providers, Web hosting companies,Internet backbone providers, online marketplaces, and search engines -process hundreds of millions of data transfers every day, and host or linkto literally tens of billions of items of third party content.Some of this content is illegal. In the last 12 years, both Congress andthe courts have concluded that Internet intermediaries should not be liablefor a wide range of content posted or sent through their systems byanother. The reasoning behind these immunities is impeccable: if Internetintermediaries were liable every time someone posted problematic content onthe Internet, the resulting threat of liability and effort at rightsclearance would debilitate the Internet.While the logic of some sort of safe harbor for Internet intermediaries isclear, the actual content of those safe harbors is not. Rather, the safeharbors actually in place are a confusing and illogical patchwork. For someclaims, the safe harbors are absolute. For others, they preclude damagesliability but not injunctive relief. For still others they are dependent onthe implementation of a "notice and takedown" system. And for at least afew types of claims, there is no safe harbor at all. This patchwork makesno sense. In this article, I suggest that it be replaced with a uniformsafe harbor rule. A single, rationally designed safe harbor based on thetrademark model would not only permit plaintiffs the relief they need whileprotecting Internet intermediaries from unreasonable liability, but wouldalso serve as a much needed model for the rest of the world, which has yetto understand the importance of intermediaries to a vibrant Internet.

The article is devoted to a set of issues related to the study of administrative and legal support of the National Anti-Corruption Bureau of Ukraine as a subject of ensuring the system of economic security of the state. Emphasis is placed on the need for systematic comprehensive support of Ukraine's economic security system by effectively countering a wide range of real threats to the domestic economic sector in the current difficult period. An attempt is made to substantiate the expediency of positioning the National Anti-Corruption Bureau of Ukraine as one of many entities to ensure the economic security of the state and determine its place among other government agencies aimed at protecting the analyzed component of state security. In particular, the emphasis is on the criminal acts under investigation of the subject, as well as the assessment of the impact of the consequences of most acts of corruption on the domestic economy. It is emphasized that effective counteraction to the latter should contribute to the proper functioning of the entire system of economic security of Ukraine. It has been established that the national anti-corruption bureau of Ukraine works, aims, and functions as one that supports the system of economic security. Attention is drawn to a significant other part of other systems of the economic component of security. The separate issues of coordination and subcontracted coordination, reporting on the effective use of consolidation of own efforts to effectively counter a wide range of domestic and existing threats, are exogenous and endogenous in origin, and are well-known translations for the national economy.

Sound-imitating words, called onomatopoeia, presents in most of languages in the world including Acehnese language, one of traditional languages in Indonesia, in which a great deal of onomatopoeias exist in it due to its unique constructions of onomatopoeia. This research aims at finding out kinds of Acehnese onomatopoeias understood and spoken among native Acehnese people by using Pidie dialect. Thus, five people in the Pidie Jaya regency were sorted out to be the subject informants by actualizing purposive and snowball technique. Moreover, a descriptive qualitative method was manifested in the research by actualizing some instruments to get the data such as structured interviewing and documentation. Hence, all of the data were interpreted in words by listing, transcribing their phonetics orderly, as well as describing both their function and meaning. A three-step analysis – data reduction, data verification, and data display-- was employed to describe the data gathered.  Result of the research reveals that Acehnese Onomatopoeias covers a wide range of expressions in sound-imitating words which are categorized into three big classes; Phonomimes which includes auditory impressions of various imitative sounds of nature; Phenomimes -- mimetic words to describe objects’ condition and human’s activities; and Psychomimes – symbolizing psychological state or inner feelings. Still, most of Acehnese onomatopeic words are in forms of repetition and nasalization which seems to be more unique compared to other languages.

The Subject

The main topic of the article is everyday life depicted in the poetry by Tadeusz Różewicz. Its reference point is the concept of everyday life constructed by Bernhard Waldenfels. He distinguishes three ways of perceiving it – it entails regular order, embraces everything that is palpable and tangible, as well as is closed-in-itself and restricted. According to Grażyna Borkowska, everyday life is synonymic to both daunting prose of life and heart-warming  familiarness. Thus, everyday life embraces a wide range of human experiences and is valuated both positively and negatively. The category of everyday life understood as above functions as a frame for interpretation of selected Różewicz’s poems which represent different topics – religion and faith, humanity, death, and writing. Everyday life functions in Różewicz’s poetry as a space for religious experience; it enables formulating diverse universal conclusions about humanity and their relations with the world, allows the subject to speak about human mortality, and is the platform for self-referential deliberation about poetry and creating. Interpreting selected poems from the perspective of everyday life lets the reader capture deeper, ambiguous meaning of faith, perceive human existence in its double sense – both ordinary and extraordinary, bind everyday life with death and present it as a space for creating poetry. Those measures make discussed issues clearer and more concrete and combine them with human experience. Showing a specific tension between them and everyday life makes the interpretation richer and opens perspectives for discovering new meanings.

The article describes the importance of coloristics. Color is an integral part that forms a complete image of the world. It can unite urban ensembles, to bear the emotional and aesthetic burden. Color fills the world with expressiveness. The various functions of light in a person's life help to reveal the concepts of a color phenomenon, which contains a mixture of colors, the theory of color harmonies, manifested in the spiritual and material qualities of being. The color phenomenon is association formed in the consciousness. An important aspect in the formation of architectural space is the color of the object-spatial environment. This is a system that includes the color environment of natural objects and the human made architecture. Creative experience and scientific research in the field of color solutions are used for the successful design of the subject-spatial environment. In architecture, color is manifested in terms of aesthetic and psychological approaches. Any activity to create color solutions of the architectural space aims to meet the aesthetic requirements. In addition, coloristics must consider the function of objects, their design and features of the object concept in order to solve a wide range of issues.

White Colour

Viewed from space by human eyes, the predominant colours of our planet are the blue of the oceans and the white of the clouds. The blue of the oceans forms the subject of another of our chapters. However, if one focuses on the land masses other colours dominate. On land the white colour still features prominently in the polar areas covered with snow and ice, but zoom in on lower latitudes and much of the land is a mix of the green of vegetation and the brown of more arid areas. Green dominates large areas of land, so unless you are reading this in a desert, during the high-latitude winter, or in a highly urban area, then green will probably feature prominently in your surrounding landscape. One answer to the question that heads this chapter is that the climate (often rainfall) allows some parts of the land to be green with plant life, while making other areas arid and brown. However, this green of extensive plant life is still a puzzle—plants are food for a wide range of animals, so why is so much food left unused? Swarms of locusts, destroying most plants in their path (be they biblical plagues or modern day outbreaks), are the exception not the rule. But why is this so? Why are so many parts of our world green in the face of this threat from herbivores? As we will see, if herbivores are the key to our question, then what starts as a question in plant ecology ends up being a question about factors that limit the size of herbivore populations. In effect, we need to understand why herbivore populations do not increase in density to such a level that they destroy all the available plants, giving a land that is brown rather than green. Until the middle of the twentieth century if you had put the green world question to biologists, many of them would probably have suggested that it was not in the interests of a species to consume all of its food reserves.
