The author disagrees with a popular belief the Schulz’s bookplates have been made with the cliché-verre technique. He reconstructs the reasons for this misrecognition promoted by Jerzy Ficowski and Michał Kuna and the common association of Schulz’s graphic art with the Booke of Idolatry only, but in the first place makes a detailed analysis of the known bookplates, which allows him to claim that the techniques used were zincotype, drypoint, and heliogravure. The paper includes reproductions of four known bookplates by Schulz, with full descriptions made by the author.

Rethinking Market Regulation: Helping Labor by Overcoming Economic Myths tackles the plight of workers who lose their jobs from mergers and outsourcing by examining two economic “principles,” or narratives that have shaped the perception of the economic system in the United States today: (1) the notion that the U.S. economy is competitive, making government market regulation unnecessary, and (2) the claim that corporations exist for the benefit of their shareholders but not for other stakeholders. Contrary to popular belief, this book demonstrates that many markets are not competitive but rather are oligopolistic. This conclusion undercuts the common refrain that government market regulation is unnecessary because competition already provides sufficient constraints on business. Part of the lack of competition has resulted from the large mergers over the past few years, many of which have resulted in massive layoffs. The second narrative has justified the outsourcing of millions of jobs of U.S. workers this century, made possible by globalization. The book argues that this narrative is not an economic principle but rather a normative position. In effect, both narratives are myths, although they are accepted as truisms by many people. The book ties together a concern for the problems of using economic principles as a justification for the lack of government intervention with the harm that has been caused to workers. The book’s recommendations for a new regulatory regime are a prescription for helping labor by limiting job losses from mergers and outsourcing.

Secondary brain injury (SBI) is defined as new or worsening injury to the brain after an initial neurologic insult, such as hemorrhage, trauma, ischemic stroke, or infection. It is a common and potentially preventable complication following many types of primary brain injury (PBI). However, mechanistic details about how PBI leads to additional brain injury and evolves into SBI are poorly characterized. In this work, we propose a mechanistic model for the metabolic supply demand mismatch hypothesis (MSDMH) of SBI. Our model, based on the Hodgkin-Huxley model, supplemented with additional dynamics for extracellular potassium, oxygen concentration and excitotoxity, provides a high-level unified explanation for why patients with acute brain injury frequently develop SBI. We investigate how decreased oxygen, increased extracellular potassium, excitotoxicity, and seizures can induce SBI, and suggest three underlying paths for how events following PBI may lead to SBI. The proposed model also helps explain several important empirical observations, including the common association of acute brain injury with seizures, the association of seizures with tissue hypoxia and so on. In contrast to current practices which assume that ischemia plays the predominant role in SBI, our model suggests that metabolic crisis involved in SBI can also be non-ischemic. Our findings offer a more comprehensive understanding of the complex interrelationship among potassium, oxygen, excitotoxicity, seizures and SBI.

The Way

This chapter explores the 1920s and 1930s "voodoo craze" by examing the way that negative ideas about "Africa" and "Africans" during these years, and the prevelance of the common association between Africa and spiritual primitivism (superstitions, the belief in black magic, and dark rituals) became a prominent theme in assessments of Gullah folk's African connection. Using newspapers that circulated in popular migration destinations, films, plays, and travel writers' accounts to trace popular ideas about African survivals, this chapter charts a mounting obsession with southern black voodoo and superstition that reenergizes the debate over African survivals in the academe.

Amphibole Fractionation

Abstract Ore-forming magmas are commonly considered to have been unusually metal rich. Because Cu and Au are strongly chalcophile, early sulfide saturation has been regarded as detrimental to porphyry Cu-Au mineralization. Here we demonstrate, based on amphibole-rich cumulate xenoliths and amphibole megacrysts from the Tongling porphyry(-skarn) Cu-Au mining district in southeastern China, that this view is not necessarily correct. Age data combined with petrological and geochemical evidence suggest that the mineralizing magmas at Tongling underwent significant fractional crystallization of amphibole, clinopyroxene, and magmatic sulfides in the middle to lower crust. The fact that the silicate melts nevertheless were able to produce substantial porphyry(-skarn) Cu-Au deposits implies that the formation of metal-rich cumulates at depth was not detrimental to their fertility. On the contrary, the common association of porphyry Cu (Au, Mo) deposits with high-Sr/Y magmas suggests that amphibole fractionation at depth even promotes the mineralization potential, despite the likely loss of metals.

Internal Coupling

Despite various theories about the exact origin of gestures in speech production, researchers generally accept that gesture and speech constitute the product of a single unit of thought within the speaker. On the other hand, what I call gestural mimicry requires consideration of factors outside such speaker-internal coupling of gesture and speech. Through detailed analysis of a joint narration task and casual conversation in a dyad, I will show that, once perceived and decoded by a partner, the form–meaning relationship of a speaker’s gesture can become part of the common ground of understanding between the participants. In gestural mimicry, communicativity is observed in the way a speaker’s spontaneous gesture shapes the subsequent gestural move of the interlocutor. With a recurrence of gestural features across speakers, image construal through gesture becomes an interactional phenomenon. That is, gesture as well as speech provides an interactional resource for co-constructing talk.

Common Association

Serpentinites and serpentinised ultramafic rocks from the Pindos ophiolite complex, northwestern Greece, contain Cr-spinel grains that are usually altered. The extent of alteration differs among Cr-spinels and two alteration trends can be distinguished. The most dominant is characterised by Cr-spinel overgrown by Cr-magnetite, while the second shows gradual replacement of Cr-spinel by ferrian chromite locally combined with Cr-magnetite development. Compared to cores, the altered rims are enriched in Fe and show elevated Cr# in both types of alteration, while they are impoverished in Mg and Al only at the second one. The common association of Crmagnetite with serpentine and ferrian chromite with chlorite provides insights to the metamorphic context of their formation through processes that include metasomatism by cation diffusion exchange

The use of ergonomic principles is imperative for the design of each contemporary product and its success on the market.  Despite the common association of ergonomics with comfort, especially with products related to sitting, this master thesis has its focus on products with adjustable sizes, setting a main goal to make this product durable and adaptable to various physical differences between the users (children at different ages). In this thesis, the use of bionic methods and principles provide innovative insight and solution to the main issue at hand, adapting the seat to different sizes with application of layers of material. In shaping the layers of material, a fractal design is used, an algorithm method that creates a mathematical dependence in solving the specific problem of different sizes. In this case it solves the correlation between the sizes of layers of the material. The results of these interdisciplinary researches are implemented and evaluated through a design of a child bike seat, by which they are turned into an ecological, recyclable and modern product.
