- This article aims to analyse the specific characteristics of latticed allegations. This particular sort of allegation, which often involves large numbers of children from a small, restricted community have a number of characteristics which are to be found time and time again and which can render the evaluations of an expert witness extremely complex. Phenomena of mass suggestion and amplification of the episode can, on the one hand, lead to the creation of facts which have never happened but also, on the other, sometimes to the concealment of a very real form of abuse. The authors, after making an exhaustive study of the specific nature of the problems involved, propose a form of detailed investigation which takes into account the particular nature of this type of allegation as well as the cognitive and psychological characteristics of the child. The aim is to help the methodology of the expert witness to acquire a greater epistemological coherence and to guarantee a greater respect for the scientific rules which should form the basis for any medico-legal investigation.Key words: latticed allegations, methodology of expert witness, children's competence, child sexual abuse.Parole chiave: denunce a reticolo, metodologia dell'indagine peritale, competenza del bambino, abuso sessuale infantile.

Catholic teens Indonesia is part of the Church in Indonesia and the Indonesian people. Indonesia consists of thousands of islands that stretched from Sabang to Merauke. This fact opens the possibility of a fairly wide occurrence of the encounter between cultures and simultaneous cross-cultural. This diversity is certainly a logical consequence to an enrichment of civilizations and diversity (plurality), although also contains elements of the loss. Plurality of Indonesian society on the one hand can make the Catholic teens swept away in the swift currents of the community to lose our identity or conflict. However Plurality can also awaken in the Catholic teen award nature between one race to the other races, between ethnic or tribal one with the other tribes, between groups with one another. In a pluralistic society such as this, the Catholic teens called to the apostolate. Through the act of self-discovery, live in love and have a sense of tolerance of differences is the real form of the apostolate.

This study assesses how knowledge about protective behaviours against sexual abuse changes among 6 to 7 year-olds 22 girls and boys, after implementing the programme “Grita muy fuerte" (Shout out loud). The program is developed over 5 weeks in sessions of 60 minutes per week. In order to determine the effect of it, an evaluation is carried out with pre-test and post-test measures included in the program itself. According to the results, on the one hand, all students improve their knowledge of protective behaviours against sexual abuse and, on the other hand, in terms of gender, girls have greater knowledge than boys. It is concluded that the programme is effective in increasing awareness of protective behaviours against sexual abuse and that it is therefore advisable to set up this type of experience as part of the schools' educational project.

The global economy will face significant challenges over the next few decades. On the one hand, it must meet the needs of 7 billion consumers (growing to 9 billion by 2050), including the currently unmet basic needs of large numbers in developing countries in areas such as food, energy, housing and health. On the other hand, it must achieve this growth without exceeding the resources available on the planet or causing environmental devastation. This paper argues that such change is possible through a systemic shift to a frugal economy that involves radical, frugal innovation across sectors. Such a transformation will involve the participation of large and small firms, consumers and governments alike. The paper introduces the notion of frugal innovation—the creation of faster, better and cheaper solutions for more people that employ minimal resources—and discusses strategies and examples of such change already taking place in core sectors like manufacturing, food, automotive and energy in developing and developed economies. It also outlines the role of the interaction between large and small firms as well as between firms and consumers in making change possible, as well as the role of governments in driving change where market mechanisms alone will not suffice. This article is part of the themed issue ‘Material demand reduction’.

AbstractMore than a century ago Freud provoked a bitter controversy concerning alleged recollections of childhood sexual abuse: Were they fact or fiction? This debate is still ongoing, with some professionals stubbornly holding on to deeply entrenched and polarised positions. On the one side there are those who continue to deny the veracity of all ‘recovered memories’, and thus also of the implicated psychological defenses of repression and dissociation. At the other extreme are those therapists who simplistically assume that particular symptoms invariably imply sexual abuse. Over the decades there is a growing corpus of anecdotal, clinical and, more recently, research evidence supporting the contention that childhood sexual abuse, like all other trauma, can be forgotten for days, and even for many years, before being recalled. However, the reconstruction of these memories is a complex and, at times, a rather fallible process.

Titanium alloys are widely used in the aircraft industry. Under sheets form, they can be employed to the manufacturing of pylon or engine parts. With the aim of a cost reduction, this study proposes to act on the starting microstructure so as to improve the mechanical properties during the forming stages. In the present study, investigations are focused on Ti-6Al-2Sn-4Zr-2Mo (Ti6242) alloy specially used for the hot areas (e.g. parts close to the engine or the combustion chambe...). Presently, an important mechanical test campaign was performed on Ti6242 alloy, it examines, on the one hand, the microstructure qualified by the aircraft industry and, on the other hand, a new range of refined microstructures obtained by hot straining process. For each test, microstructural observations exhibited complex phenomena including simultaneously both grain growth and dynamic recrystallization. The occurrence, sequencing and coupling of the mechanisms, strongly depend on the starting microstructure and the test conditions (time-temperature and strain rate) investigated. They are not easy to understand and require further tests and observations. In such a framework, the implementation of mechanical models are efficient and relevant to promote a better knowledge of the microstructural evolution observed and their influence on the mechanical behavior.

The technical advances described in this chapter could markedly aid the struggle to prevent healthcare-associated infection. They range from nanomedicine to oral doses of probiotics and IBM’s Watson computer as diagnostician. The adaptive possibilities include further empowerment of the patient on the one hand and new approaches to bring hard-pressed clinicians emotional relief and improve their interactions with patients on the other hand. Studies have shown that large numbers of physicians have suffered burnout. Many doctors and nurses are not fully attentive in their encounters with patients. Growing numbers of clinicians have begun practicing mindfulness, and a model designed to show how a mindful focus can help clinicians in implementing infection prevention initiatives is presented.

The philosophy of primary and secondary qualities is in a state of some confusion. There is no agreement as to the basis upon which the two classes of quality may be distinguished—a host of features, as diverse as perceptible by more than one sense and belonging to the definition of matter, are offered as the mark of the primary. There is not even agreement on which qualities belong to which group. Shape, size and solidity are generally held to be primary, while colours, smells, and the like (I) are favoured secondary candidates. But for large numbers of qualities, for example being acidic, malleable, rust-proof—or, among perceptible qualities, glistening and vibrating—we are offered no effective guidance.Inevitably, in such a situation, we are without clear answers to the questions; Why should any distinction be made between primaries and secondaries? Must all qualities be the one or the other? To the solution of which problems does the distinction serve as a preliminary step? What special relationship is there between primary qualities and scientific theory, or between secondary qualities and peculiarities in perception?

The aim of this article is to demonstrate the differences appearing in French and Italian scientific texts and their translations into Polish. The specificity of the scientific text causes enormous difficulties faced by novice translators. On the one hand, one must faithfully reflect the merits of work, and, on the other hand, take care of the appropriate style of the target text. As Stanisław Gajda [1982] states, each discipline produces a completely separate language termed “scientific sublanguage”, and the basic difficulty in the case of translation by people not familiar with the scientific language seems to be the recreation of the specific nature of the scientific language of the source text in the target text. The multidimensionality and interdisciplinary nature of scientific translation should also be considered because only on the basis of interdisciplinary knowledge can the translator choose the appropriate translation strategy.

Smolensk dialects are closely connected with the Belarusian border dialects like Vitebsk and Mogilev ones, which is caused by the history and cultural characteristics of the territory. Throughout the Russian-Belarusian border, in the Smolensk region, there is a kind of language continuum, which is of interest in terms of the description of the existing private dialect systems, their functioning in synchrony and diachrony, the study of mechanisms involved in their interaction and independent development. Particular dialect systems are opposed, on the one hand, to the Russian standard language, in which they normally do not find lexical correspondences, on the other hand, to the Belarusian standard language, in which a number of correspondences are found due to the peculiarities of the standard Belarusian language formation on the basis of Belarusian dialects. All detected dialectal lexical parallels have been described with the classification criterion of the derivated character of the dialectal vocabulary. The reason for this is the specific nature of the functioning of non-derivated and derivated dialect vocabulary in related groups of dialects: non-derivated words as a whole make up about a third of all detected Russian- Belarusian dialect correspondences and demonstrate a sufficiently large number of semantic changes within a lexeme, they are less stable in semantics compared with derivated dialect nouns.In Smolensk and Mogilev dialects 51 lexical dialecticisms have been discovered,among the studied lexical parallels 36 nouns are typical for the dialects of Smolensk and Mogilev, while another 15 nouns with small changes in the semantics or grammatical form are found in the Belarusian standard language.

Victimogenic situation is a private variety of criminogenic situation where one of the main actors of the criminal drama, along with a perpetrator, is a specific victim of the crime, though being not merely a target of the crime, but the person who, thanks to his/her behaviour and particular personal characteristics, objectively contributes to the commission of the crime against himself/herself. The study of a victimogenic situation and appropriate prevention must be based on a consistent methodology, according to which an individual criminal behaviour arises from the interaction of personality (individual) and a particular real-life situation. A victim in the victimogenic situation is almost as active as the perpetrator. Therefore, it is necessary to investigate the specific nature of the circumstances in this strange tandem of “perpetrator-victim”, which characterises the personality and behaviour of the offender, on the one hand and the personality and behaviour of the victim, on the other hand.
