Working Out

When it comes to experiencing pain, most people will agree that it is an uncomfortable sensation that we would rather avoid. Pain can vary in intensity—ranging from the mild sensation of stubbing your toe to the intense pain of a broken bone—and we generally think of it as a bad thing. But pain can be thought of in two ways: sometimes it is a warning signal that something is wrong with our bodies, but other times it is benign, meaning it is not an indication that something is necessarily wrong. Warning-signal pain occurs when certain areas of your body get hurt or experience tissue damage, like when a sibling accidentally closes the car door on your fingers. Benign pain, on the other hand, is the type of pain you feel during intense physical exercise, and as you will come to see, is not always something you need to avoid!

A few remarks on the contrastive analysis of styleThe phenomenon of style, analysed from different points of view, has been presented in this article. On the one hand, connections between stylistics and pragmalinguistics with the psychological profile of the sender have been indicated. Janusz Reykowski’s distinction of the five levels of centralisation, included in his publications, has turned out to be most useful in the pragmalinguistic analysis while describing the locutionary act, including the stylistic phenomena. On the other hand, though, a question about thepossibility and limits of the reflection of style in translation has been asked, using the text example in a German-Polish pair, and working out the criteria of evaluation. In the conclusion of the article the author is postulating the formation of a German-Polish contrastive stylistics.

The average pattern of urinary mucoprotein (MP) excretion was assessed in four subjects during 104 workdays. The subjects were performing their usual tasks connected with their jobs. On alternate days they were exposed to an additional treadmill exercise for one hour. On days with treadmill excerise MP excretion was elevated; however, the total excess MP excretion was not significantly different whether the subjects walked at speeds of 2.4 mph or 3.5 mph. On the other hand, the rate of MP excretion (mg/hr) increased more during the 3.5 mph walk than during the 2.4 mph. This suggests that the measurement of the urinary MP excretion rate during physical exercise may be a useful method to determine the magnitude of the stress imposed by a workload upon an individual subject.

Prostatic Diseases

Abstract Body fat resulting from the consumption of fatty foods develops inflammation, a precursor to obesity, diabetes mellitus and prostatic diseases, causing tissue changes. On the other hand, aerobic physical exercise in conjunction with PPARα promotes an increase in energy expenditure, modulating cellular metabolism by altering prostate cell metabolism. This study aimed to elucidate the effect of the gene transcription factor PPARα as a prostatic regulator associated with the effects of aerobic physical exercise in mice fed to a high-fat diet. Wild Type and PPARα -/- mice (C57BL/6J) were fed a high-fat diet and submitted to aerobic physical training for 8 weeks. Prostates of male mice were analyzed histologically and metabolically for PIN progression. These findings suggest that the absence of PPARα reduces adiposity and but does not modify the expression AR and GR, up-regulate prostate inflammation, and suppresses Fas (CD95/Apo-1) increase in TNF-α, induced by prostatic lesions. On the other hand, aerobic physical exercise was effective in protecting prostatic damage induced by a high-fat diet, both in wild type and in PPARα-/- animals. The absence PPARα induces an inflammatory process and prostatic changes and associated with a high-fat diet, however, these inflammatory processes induce increased apoptosis and may further inhibit cell growth associated with physical exercise.

Working Out

In his hermeneutic of the self, which he is working out in his Oneself as another, Ricœur writes about the constitutive conditions of conscience as a dimension of the experience of passivity. For the following considerations, I will argue that Ricœur is very right in maintaining the moral impact of the notion of conscience; but if we on the other hand remember older writings by Ricœur like Fallible Man we have to admit that something is missed in the chapter about conscience in Oneself as Another. And that means, that in Oneself as Another he neglects the affective dimension of conscience. This affective dimension is - I think - the notion of shame.Dans Soi-même comme un autre où s'élabore son herméneutique du soi, Paul Ricœur réfléchit sur les conditions constitutives de la conscience comme expérience de la passivité.  Pour les considerations suivantes, je souhaiterai montrer que Ricœur a tout à fait raison de plaider pour la dimension morale de la notion de conscience. Mais, d'un autre côté,si l'on se souvient des écrits plus anciens de Ricoeur sur l'Homme faillible, nous sommes tenus d'admettre que, au cours du chapitre sur la conscience dans Soi-même comme un autre, quelque chose est perdu de vue. Nous voulons signifier que, dans ce chapitre, il néglige la dimension affective de la conscience. Cette dimension affective est, nous semble-t-il, la notion de honte.

Nd:YAG laser with contact tip provides unique advantages over a cold knife and electrocautery in a surgical dissection. The Nd:YAG laser places somewhere in the middle between the traditional electrocautery and the CO2 laser. The Nd:YAG laser has much less tissue damage compared to electrocautery. On the other hand, this laser has afar better ability to coagulate the blood vessels and the advantage of easy maneuverability as compared to the CO2 laser. The author presents his experiences in Nd:YAG laser contact tip for reduction mammaplasty. Seventeen reduction mammaplasties using Nd:YAG contact laser tip were presented. Several patients returned to work within a week after surgery. One patient was well enough to volunteer to go back to work on the fourth post-operative day. The Nd:YAG laser physics, equipment, applications, and surgical cases are discussed.

Chapter 4 considers the influence exerted by Nietzsche’s reading of Emerson on the former’s critique of the morality of compassion and on his working out of a moral proposal alternative to this modelled on the relation of friendship. Emphasizing the value of individualism for the well-being of the collective, Emerson brings Nietzsche to understand that pursuing one’s personal advantage, if it is correctly understood, not only does not conflict with the welfare of society but nourishes and supports it. On this basis, Nietzsche on the one hand develops a critique of compassion and altruism as forms of the loss of the self and humiliation of the other, while on the other hand reassessing the value of egoism or, better put, distinguishing egoism as the pursuit of pleasure from a “higher egoism” that consists in pursuing one’s own vocation. Friendship is the relation that best sustains the development both of one’s own and others’ individualities.

Abstract Futuring trans* is a deliberation on the emergence of transgender alongside khwajasara, both newer terms in Pakistan that acquire distinctly temporal agencies insofar as these untether individuals from difficult histories and offer new affective means for future making. Not the same as the identity transgender, trans* in Pakistan, this article proposes, is a baggy and emergent ground where not only locally specific meanings around gender variability are being pushed out and projected anew but where its historical, trans-local, cross-scalar, and open-ended working out is mappable. To outline its futural shapes, this text closely traces a set of affective, representational, and practical strategies as part of an unfinished, contested, and dynamic process of encounters across a variety of allies and actors: individuals, institutions, collectives, spaces, and networks. It illustrates, on the one hand, how trans* in Pakistan kicks off a capacious contact zone, triggers cross-sectional encounters, and generates momentum with implications, which impact but also exceed local conditions. On the other hand, it observes how its horizons might be curtailed by conditions and concerns that privilege some ways of gender nonconforming over certain others.

The Middle Ages

The trouble with allegory is that it has become a fashionable current preoccupation and people like to be for it or against it. Polemics always tend to vulgarize issues, critical problems get lost among the involvements with “positions,” scholarship becomes a device for finding proofs in history for tightly held hypotheses, and argument becomes a form of rhetoric. But an even worse consequence of such controversial constriction is that it puts literary studies in a straightjacket. There is an important truth in that account of Western literary criticism in the Middle Ages which sees it primarily as a working out and extension of Augustinian doctrine, with the problems of Christian allegory at its center, and there is sufficient evidence in history to support and enlighten that view. Those, on the other hand, who are uncomfortable with allegory and find this view somehow less than satisfactory for the reading of certain texts may accept the allegorists' description of the tradition generally but at the same time justify their dissidence by pointing out (1) that there were other forms of allegory in the Middle Ages, which such a statement of tradition does not adequately consider, (2) that not all literary pieces were formed by their authors under the influence of that tradition, whatever interpreters afterwards may have done in reading them, and (3) that, in any case, even the Christian doctors most learned in the allegorical art did not claim that it could operate uniformly in all its variety everywhere or in every piece. On the contrary, they were the first to warn against such an assumption. Yes, say the proponents of allegory in response, but we don't make so rigid a claim as you imply; we are aware that not every medieval poem can be read by all the kinds of interpretation at once; some pieces obviously intend no more than the simplest sort of old-fashioned moralizing. And so it goes, pro and con, in secula seculorum.

Sudden Rise

AbstractWe have developed a model for theH2OandOHevolution in a comet outburst, assuming that together with the gas, a distribution of icy grains is ejected. With an initial mass of icy grains of 108kg released, theH2OandOHproductions are increased up to a factor two, and the growth curves change drastically in the first two days. The model is applied to eruptions detected in theOHradio monitorings and fits well with the slow variations in the flux. On the other hand, several events of short duration appear, consisting of a sudden rise ofOHflux, followed by a sudden decay on the second day. These apparent short bursts are frequently found as precursors of a more durable eruption. We suggest that both of them are part of a unique eruption, and that the sudden decay is due to collisions that de-excite theOHmaser, when it reaches the Cometopause region located at 1.35 × 105kmfrom the nucleus.

Transmission Microscope

We have become accustomed to differentiating between the scanning microscope and the conventional transmission microscope according to the resolving power which the two instruments offer. The conventional microscope is capable of a point resolution of a few angstroms and line resolutions of periodic objects of about 1Å. On the other hand, the scanning microscope, in its normal form, is not ordinarily capable of a point resolution better than 100Å. Upon examining reasons for the 100Å limitation, it becomes clear that this is based more on tradition than reason, and in particular, it is a condition imposed upon the microscope by adherence to thermal sources of electrons.
