The aim of this work is the analysis and interpretation of the results of morphotectonic analysis of the territory of the Kremenets Mountains in order to study its neotectonic history and to identify the regional morphotectonic differences. The methods of the reconstruction of the post-Sarmatic planation surface and lineament analysis were used for this analysis as well as the data received in the process of field studies on the territory where the exploration took place, in particular the study of rocks fracturing. A number of previous studies of the upland area was analysed, in particular, its tectonics and relief. It is discovered that the Kremenets Mountains are the mountains of the monolithic structure, which are under the influence of the differentiated neotectonic movements; a number of faults, that affect the relief situation in the natural area, is also discovered. The theory of the coincidence of the directions of drains valleys with the rocks fracturing is confirmed. The theories of the formation of the North-Podillia ledge, of its confirmation and denial are considered. The origin of the north-west ledge of the escarpment is tectonic and the origin of the south and east ledges is erosive. The relief-forming role of tectonic structure of the region and its expression in the modern morphodynamic processes is evaluated. Key words: the Kremenets Mountains, the Podillia Upland, morphotectonics, neotectonic movements, faults, North-Podillia ledge, planation surfaces, lineament analysis.

The article focuses on calendar-ceremonial folklore of Novgorod region as an important component of folklore song traditions of the region. The musical and poetical forms of the calendar are considered in terms of type, genre and realm. The author is the first to systematize the data about calendar folklore recordings made in Novgorod region by various collectors in the 1960s - 1990s. The author gives special attention to the results of field studies of Saint Petersburg Conservatory named after N.A. Rimski-Korsakov. The author introduces into scientific discourse a range of items of calendar folklore from the archive of the Conservatory (Maslenitsa, Christmas and Easter carols and yells). The specificity of Novgorod calendar traditions is connected with a special role of intoned yells serving a function of calling over ceremonial characters, and Christmas carols combining the features of folk and church melodics. Some folklore forms, recorded in Novgorod region, can be considered unique (the North-East Maslenitsa chants, the “Piper” song, the Easter callings). Taking into account the peculiarities of a genre composition of the calendar, the types of chants and the style features, the author outlines three historical-cultural zones in Novgorod region - the North-East, the South-West and the Central. The research results can be used for mapping  the calendar folklore chants of Russia’s North-West, and for the further study of music folklore traditions of Novgorod region together with other folklore genres.

AbstractProtases ('if'-clauses) in the North West Caucasian language Abkhaz are mostly marked by either /-r/ or /-zα.r/, depending on the tense and/or type of verb (Stative or Dynamic) concerned. The article presents examples of this conditional usage and the role of protasis-type forms in both temporal and interrogative expressions as well as in complementiser-function. The complementisers in question share the semantic feature of irrealis with conditionals. A rhotic element is also found in the non-finite form of the Future I tense, in the Masdar (verbal noun), and in such converbs as the Purposives, the Resultative and the Future Absolute. The article attempts to link the semantic notions of futurity, potentiality, indefiniteness or general irrealis to the rhotic element and asks what might have been the historical development resulting in the forms attested today and thus their original morphological segmentation.

The diabetic foot can be treated only if you know how to work as a team and the diabetologist, the natural referent of the clinical case, has to create a multiprofessional/multidisciplinary team that can manage the patient to prevent injuries and treat them if they show up. The creation of structured diagnostic-therapeutic paths guarantees a better coordination of the professional figures involved, optimizes the management of the direct and indirect resources required to manage such a clinically challenging complication. After many years of activity we have built a solid integration between diabetologist and orthopedic, between hospital and territory and we have simplified a complex path. The fulcrum of this activity is the joint orthopaedic clinic that guarantees the correct care of the patient and allows the professional growth of the whole team. KEY WORDS diabetic foot; integrated management; PDTA; team.

Abstract Background The National Early Inflammatory Arthritis Audit (NEIAA) has provided the opportunity for rheumatology services to benchmark the care they provide. It provides a mechanism to identify where services can make improvements and to raise awareness about inflammatory arthritis. We felt it important to share our results with patients and involve patients in the discussion about how we improve the service we deliver. This project outlines how we went about doing this. Methods Data submitted to the NEIAA online tool were downloaded for analysis. This included all patients recruited during the first year of the audit. Results were presented initially to the Rheumatology Multi-Disciplinary Team. Driver diagrams were developed by the team and areas for improvement identified. A patient poster for the waiting area was also developed. This provided information about our performance in the audit and what changes we were looking to make. Results, driver diagrams and the patient poster were then presented to our National Rheumatoid Arthritis Society (NRAS) patient support group at one of their lunchtime meetings. We met again two weeks later with members from the patient group to get feedback on the driver diagrams and patient poster. Results Results from the first year of the audit demonstrated that there was significant room for improvement across all seven quality standards. Driver diagrams identified areas for improvement across the whole patient pathway. Forty-five patients and carers attended the lunchtime meeting presentation. Patients identified various areas where they could get involved with improving the patient pathway. These included putting up posters in the community to raise awareness about rheumatoid arthritis and running another Rheumatoid Arthritis Awareness Day. Other proposals were to provide more lunchtime meetings to improve understanding about the condition and management and promote aspects of self-management and developing the role of the Expert Patient locally to support newly diagnosed patients. The patient poster received lots of positive comments, it was suggested that we remove any statistics which might cause alarm and be difficult to interpret and to focus on what quality improvements had already happened locally. Conclusion Involving patients in the discussion has been a fascinating and rewarding experience. Patients have been empowered and their input has been valued. Patients have provided additional suggestions as to how they can get involved to support the service and improve the patient pathway. The patient poster now tells a positive story and acknowledges our unsatisfactory performance in the first year of the audit and more importantly focuses on what we are doing to improve the service we deliver.

Woodside as Operator, on behalf of three Joint Venture groups, over the last decade has acquired eight 3-D seismic surveys covering some 4 600 km2 over the Rankin Trend and Dampier Sub-Basin Production Licences and Exploration Permits on the North West Shelf of Australia. This area represents approximately 45 per cent coverage of the present Woodside operated acreage in the area. The acquisition, processing and interpretation technology and also the benefits derived from the 3-D technique have changed remarkably since the first North West Shelf 3-D survey in 1981. This paper focusses on the main technological developments in 3-D seismic, particularly involving multi-source and streamer technology, increased spatial sampling and interpretation techniques which have changed the role of 3-D seismic in Exploration strategies through the 1980s and into the 1990s.

The Article presents an analysis of the role of the media sector in the structure created by the placement of tourist routes in the subjects of the Russian Federation. The sample size was 6000 routes in all federal districts of Russia. The problem of poor service provided by the hotel services in Russia is one of the major problems hindering the development of domestic tourism. Value for money and sometimes do not match. Part of the situation could have saved the increasing competition with the hotels listed in the international circuit, which created its own rules of corporate culture, high standards of service, clearly defined for each category of hotel (in terms of stardom). However, this does not justify a revision of its marketing strategy of independent hoteliers. It is also important to pay attention to accommodation, similar to hotels and other accommodation facilities. They are also well represented in the tourist market. According to the author, the low level of service in accommodation facilities is determined not so much by the reluctance of management to improve it, as the structure of demand from tourists and tour operators, to create a product. Most of the routes, which include the need to accommodate tourists, implemented on average, in the area the day — two. At the same time, tourists do not stay in accommodation facilities for a long time and continue your route on. This circumstance serves as an incentive to change the quality of services. Moreover, the article stipulates that personal and other accommodations are well represented in the routes of major federal districts like Central, Ural, Siberia, Far East. Accommodation in hotels more common routes in the North- West, Volga, the Crimea and North Caucasian Federal District. Accommodation facilities, in this case, are the operators of the individual passive format services. However, this strategy cannot be used by all players of the hospitality industry in all federal districts. The specificity of the regions and their remoteness from each other, the price level in the field must be limiting conditions in which hoteliers could develop. It is therefore proposed that the need to actively offer ideas own hiking tour operators or actively interact with them, attracting all new, including the unorganized tourist flows.

Studies of Phalaris aquatica L. were used to collect data for basal bud (all below ground shoot material) weights, their water-soluble carbohydrate (WSC) content, and green vegetative tillers. A glasshouse study of cvv. Australian and Sirosa was conducted on regrowth after 26 days of plants previously exposed to either non-limiting or limiting (simulated Mediterranean environment, and 3- or 6-week drought) watering treatments. The other studies were of Sirosa phalaris pastures that had previously been subjected to continuous or lenient (resting in both spring and autumn each year) grazing by Merino wethers. In the glasshouse study, weight of basal buds (g/plant) was highest (13.88 g/plant) for Australian plants in the non-limiting water treatment, but not significantly different among watering treatments for Sirosa plants. Basal bud WSC values ranged from 2126 mg/plant (Australian phalaris, non-limiting water) to <200 mg/plant in 6-week drought and Mediterranean watering treatments of both cultivars. Tiller regrowth was higher in Australian non-limiting water treatment compared with all other treatments. Post-drought field studies (6 weeks tiller regrowth in May–June 1995) showed that plants in continuously grazed treatments had basal bud weights <11 g/plant, basal bud WSC contents <600 mg/plant, and green vegetative tiller weights <2.5 g/plant, compared with values of >11 g/plant, >1300 mg/plant, and >3.6 g/plant, respectively, for treatments rested for 12 weeks in both autumn and spring. At the end of spring 1995, when plants were post stem elongation and anthesis, basal bud WSC (mg/plant) was significantly higher in autumn–spring rest treatments compared with plants that were continuously grazed (mean values for 2 sites of 2889 and 1458 mg/plant, respectively). From these data, threshold values of basal bud WSC contents of <600 mg/plant after 6 weeks of regrowth in autumn–early winter, or <2000 mg/plant in flowering plants in late spring in continuously grazed pastures >3 years old, were proposed as useful indicators that management intervention may be required to maintain Sirosa phalaris persistence on the North-West Slopes of New South Wales.
