Modern linguistics is focused on the theory of lingual personology which sheds light on the ability of a lingual personality to generate and interpret texts, participate in various types of the discursive practice, model his/her communicative space within the plane of a respective lingual culture. Ego-texts as a type of the discursive practice manifest themselves in the system of speech genres. If an ego-text represents poetry it additionally belongs to a linguo-literary genre. The article sets out to characterize lingual creativity of S. I. Doroshenko in modelling his speech and linguo-literary ego-textual genre of a syncretic type – well-wishing-greeting-dedication whose samples are found in his book “Moya dusha i serce z Vamy” (“My soul and heart are with you”). This collection is viewed as a research ‘territory’, i.e. a discursive space to analyze relationship of S. I. Doroshenko with his closest communicants – his family, friends, students, adherents and supporters. Apart from traditional analysis the research of ego-texts involves new linguistic methods, in particular content analysis, intertextual analysis and narrative one. Methods of discursive analysis in this case aim to: а) explain the sense of social phenomena and b) determine the way of structuring these phenomena. The dominant genre in the ego-textual space of S. I. Doroshenko is greeting and sending regards, i.e. wishing all the best which can satisfy the addressee’s demands and drawing attention to an important event in his / her life, focusing on his / hr individuality and significance. Doroshenko’s ego-text is characterized by the high level of attraction as a manifestation of emotionally positive attitude to people, affection and spirituality. Еgo-textual idiostyle of S. I. Doroshenko includes the following features: epigraphs, jocular tone, puns, linguistic terms, precedency and intertextuality.

The Relationship

This article studies the cognitive features of the “power” frame and its gender implementation in the historical tragedy by W. Shakespeare “Macbeth”. Here, the author examines the concepts of “frame” and “gender” in linguistics, studying different approaches to their definition. The relevance of this work is determined by the close attention of the contemporary linguistics to these concepts, as well as their place in the contemporary academic paradigm. The academic affirmation of the “frame” and “gender” concepts designates a new step in understanding the ways and peculiarities of the language interaction, consciousness, and culture, and, consequently, it shows new aspects of the relationship of linguistics with other sciences. Nevertheless, the problems of both frame and gender are not yet fully understood. This study allows describing in detail the essence of the frame “power” and showing its meaning, use, and ways of its gender implementation in fiction, which explains the novelty of this article. The study’s methodology is based on the cognitive-discursive analysis of the text, as well as on an integrative approach to the discourse study, which combines methods of both cognitive and gender linguistics, as well as the discourse analysis. Common research methods were used along with private linguistic methods. The application of cognitive-discursive analysis has significantly increased the depth of understanding of the “power” frame that dominates Shakespeare’s historical tragedy. This historical text presents the central theme of political tragedy: the overthrow of the rightful ruler and the usurpation of power. The motive for the seizure of power forms a thematic core and is presented from the usurpers’ point of view. In this article, the author observes the gender shift and duality of the female and male beginnings: Shakespeare puts the female protagonist, hungry for power, among men, thus the images of Lady Macbeth and her husband come into conflict with the gender characteristics attributed to them. The play clearly traces the main idea of Machiavellianism: the goal justifies the means. The results conclude that the “power” frame is the leading one in Lady Macbeth’s monologue, thus setting one of the main themes of this tragedy.

Objective. The article is devoted to theoretical issues of discourse study. The aim of the research is to study the structure of discourse and the organization of the communication process. Applied methods. The study analyzes the content of the discursive space of communication, taking into account the achievements of modern linguistic science: semantic theory, theory of discursive analysis, axiological linguistics, theory of speech genres. Methods of linguistic analysis are used: the method of linguistic observation and description, the method of discursive analysis, the method of theoretical modeling. Results. The conceptual categories of discourse are defined: genre, speech action (speech act) and script. The article presents a schematic image of discourse reflected in a spatial and temporal context, with expressed value-normative properties that define it as a formalized (meeting the rules, norms and values) communication that has a consistent sequence. Conclusion. The organizational content of the discourse has a consistent sequence and is determined by the genre of the communicative situation; norms of behavior, intentions of communicants; cultural, social, and individual values.

Background: Among all aspects of nursing care, the spiritual one is the issue that has received little attention. Having spiritual wellbeing (SWB) is a necessity to provide appropriate spiritual care. In addition to, the Emotional intelligence (EI) is one of the most important factors in social and professional success and is essential for effective nursing practice. Therefore, aim of study was evaluating the Relationship between SWB and EI among nursing students. Methods: The sample of this descriptive-analytic study consisted of 136 nursing students studying at Bam University of Medical Sciences selected by convenience sampling method. The Bradberry and Greaves 28-item EI scale, Palutzian and Ellison SWB Scale were used to assess the total score of EI and SWB. Collected data were analyzed using descriptive statistics (mean and standard deviation), Pearson correlation coefficient, independent t-test and one-way ANOVA with SPSS v18. Results: The mean score of SWB and EI were 97.1±11.56 and 123.4 + 123.6, respectively. The mean score dimensions of SWB include (religious wellbeing 47.9±6.6, existential wellbeing 49.1±5.7) and dimensions EI: self-awareness, self-management, social awareness, and relationship management were 27.2 3 3.2, 36.2 2 5.4, 25.1 + 3.5 and 35.1 + 4.5, respectively. The majority of students have reported moderate level SWB and high level of emotional intelligence. The factors influencing their level of SWB were academic semester and age (p<0.05). Conclusion: Although the level of students' EI and SWB were at a desirable level in this study, due to the nature of nursing and the interaction between nurses and patients, providing a suitable learning environment for the development of EI is essential. Therefore, it is suggested that nursing policymakers should develop appropriate educational programs for nurses and provide curriculum for students to promote their knowledge and skills.

Allocation Strategies

Municipal drawdowns at public reservoirs can negatively impact recreational uses on site. Therefore, sustaining recreation requires understanding how users relate themselves with the reservoir and the resource therein, and how they will respond to circumstances and policies impacting the resource. Researchers use placedbased theory, particularly sense of place (SOP), to assess the user community’s perspective on the natural resource or recreation site of interest. This study utilized visitor survey data (n=282) from Canton Reservoir in Oklahoma to assess visitors’ sense of place (SOP), and to evaluate the relationship of SOP with their acceptability of alternative water allocation strategies and future intention of visiting the reservoir under depleted water conditions. Visitors had a high level of SOP with the reservoir and supported protective water allocation strategies that either favor the retention of water on-site or ensure a fair distribution between recreation and municipal use. Results suggest a positive relationship between visitors' SOP and their intended trips to the reservoir even under depleted water conditions. The findings highlight the psychological, functional, and emotional benefits associated with the recreational use of the Canton Reservoir, which will in turn help managers make more informed and balanced decisions about water conservation and allocation. Insights from this study will also contribute in literature on the sense of place and protective norms and offers several implications for the management of public reservoirs.

Objective.We tested the hypothesis that an inverse association exists between diabetes mellitus (DM) and hemoglobin A1C (A1C) with Transactive response DNA binding protein 43 (TDP-43) levels in older adults.Methods.We leveraged antemortem and postmortem data of decedents from three community-based clinical-pathological studies. DM status, A1C levels, and medications for DM were documented annually. TDP-43 cytoplasmic inclusions, evaluated in 6 brain regions using immunohistochemistry, were used to obtain a semiquantitative TDP-43 score (0-5) in each region, and scores were averaged across regions to obtain a TDP-43 severity score. We used linear regressions to test the association of DM and A1C with the TDP-43 severity score.Results.On average, participants (n=817) were 90 years old at the time of death, three fourth were women, and one fourth had DM. The mean A1C was 6.0% (SD=0.6). TDP-43 was observed in 54% of participants, and the mean TDP-43 score was 0.7 (range 0-4.5). A higher level of A1C was associated with a lower TDP-43 score (estimate=-0.156, S.E.=0.060, p=0.009) while DM had a borderline inverse association with the TDP-43 score (estimate=-0.163, S.E.=0.087, p=0.060). The association of higher levels of A1C with lower TDP-43 scores persisted after further adjustment by Apolipoprotein ε4, vascular risk factors, stroke, and hypoglycemic medications. Exclusion of the oldest old participants did not change the results.Conclusion.Overall, the results suggest that a high level of A1C is associated with less TDP-43 proteinopathy in older persons while the relationship of DM with TDP-43 needs further study.

<p><strong>Purpose:</strong> I initiate the discussion with a statement about cognitive-cultural capitalism and its concentration in large global cities. This is followed by an argument to the effect that the specificity of the city resides in the manner in which the diverse social phenomena that it contains are brought into a composite pattern of spatial integration. With these preliminaries in mind, I examine the economic structure of the city in cognitive-cultural capitalism, with special reference to the emergence of a new division of labor and the changing configuration of intra-urban production space. This account leads directly to consideration of the restratification of urban society and its effects on neighborhood development and social life. The final section of the paper picks up on the notion of the Common in cognitive-cultural capitalism and offers some speculative remarks regarding the implications of this phenomenon for the economic and social order of cities.</p><p><strong>Methodology/Approach:</strong> Historical and geographical narrative combined with appeals to the theory of political economy.</p><p><strong>Findings:</strong> Cognitive-cultural capitalism is emerging as a dominant force of social and economic change in the twenty-first century.

Среди сложных белков молока – казеинов – чаще всего встречаются α- и β-казеин. Ген бета-казеина имеет 12 аллельных вариантов, среди которых получили преимущество варианты А1 и А2. При этом, А2 – естественная для человеческого организма разновидность белка бета-казеина, а тип А1 возник в результате природной генетической мутации. Для получения максимального объёма продукции лучшего качества при переориентации производства на молоко А2 необходимо учитывать как основные количественные показатели продуктивности крупного рогатого скота, так и коэффициенты, определяющие эффективность использования коров с точки зрения биологической полноценности продукции, такие как биологической эффективности коров (БЭК), биологической полноценности молока (КБП), кормового коэффициента (FCR) и валовой эффективности использования кормов (GFE). Представлено сравнение количественных и качественных показателей животных разного возраста и групп с учётом степени кровности по улучшающей породе, а также с учётом генотипа по бета-казеину. Впервые проведён анализ реализации биологического потенциала крупного рогатого скота костромской породы с разными аллельными вариантами гена бета-казеина. В ходе исследования установлено, что животные генотипа А2А2 по бета-казеину отличались высоким уровнем БЭК и КБП, а также характеризовались достоверно более высоким уровнем реализации сухого вещества корма в молоко (FCR, GFE), чем у животных А1А2. Так, удои у коров с генотипом А2А2 с кровностью 50% по улучшающей породе за полновозрастную лактацию на 2514 кг больше, чем у животных генотипа А1А2, а коэффициенты БЭК, КБП и FCRвыше на 39,79%, 15,81% и 0,57 кг соответственно. Among the complex proteins of milk – caseins – most often there are α- and β-casein. The beta-casein gene has 12 allelic variants, among which the A1 and A2 variants have gained advantage. At the same time A2 is a natural variety of beta-casein protein for the human body and type A1 arose as a result of a natural genetic mutation. To obtain the maximum volume of production of better quality when reorienting production to milk A2 it is necessary to take into account both the main quantitative indicators of cattle productivity and the coefficients that determine the efficiency of cows use in terms of biological usefulness of products, such as the biological efficiency of cows (BEC), the biological usefulness of milk (BUC), feed coefficient rate (FCR) and gross feed efficiency (GFE). A comparison of quantitative and qualitative indicators of animals of different ages and groups is presented, taking into account the degree of blood relationship by improving breed, as well as taking into account the genotype by beta-casein. For the first time an analysis of the implementation of the biological potential of cattle of the Kostroma breed with different allelic variants of the beta-casein gene was carried out. During the research it was established that animals of a genotype A2A2 on beta casein differed in the BEC and BUC high level and also were characterized by significantly higher level of implementation of dry matter of feed into milk (FCR, GFE), than at animals A1A2. Thus, yields in cows with a genotype A2A2 with a blood relationship of 50% for the improving breed for full-age lactation 2514 kg more than in animals of the genotype A1A2 and the coefficients of BEC, BUC and FCR are higher by 39.79%, 15.81% and 0.57 kg, respectively.

Introduction. The article compares the methods of researching political discourse with special attention to linguistic methods, in particular, to discourse analysis and cognitive and rhetorical approaches. These methods are widely used to study political speeches, statements, texts. Increasingly, political discourse is seen as a social phenomenon, not only at the discursive but also on the cognitive and rhetorical levels. The object of this study is methods of analysis of political discourse allowing to study the position of a politician in the discursive sphere and to identify the character of his audience. The subject of the analysis are examples from Joe Biden's political speeches, seen as an instrument of influence, persuasion in the process of speaking to the electorate. The relevance of the work is determined by the need to develop arguments to choose a particular approach to political discourse, especially cognitive and rhetorical, as well as discourse analysis, which allow to reveal veiled meanings of political statements and consider the methods of persuasion of the electorate.Methodology and data sources. The subject of the analysis are examples of Joe Biden’s political speeches, seen as an instrument of influence, persuasion in the process of speaking to the electorate. To compare approaches the study of political discourse, descriptive and comparative methods are used, the effectiveness of different approaches and methods is illustrated by specific examples of linguistic interpretation of discursive features of publications and speeches, revealing the ambitions of the politician most fully. A method of quantitative counting is also used.Results and discussion. The use of descriptive and comparative methods makes it possible to compare different approaches to the study of political texts and speeches, to discuss the relationship of heterogeneous methods, to identify the most effective methods of studying discourse. The result of the article was the conclusions about the effectiveness of different approaches to the study of the language of politicians at discursive, cognitive and rhetorical levels. Comparison of methods of research of political discourse distinguishes discourse-analysis among other methods of analysis. The use of discourse analysis to study political discourse reveals the functions of discourse, for example, manipulative, selective and combined functions related to political goals. The use of critical discourse analysis allows you to identify these functions most fully.Conclusion. The study of political discourse can be carried out at different levels, but the discursive level compared to cognitive and rhetorical levels is the most effective from a linguistic point of view. Discourse analysis allows to explore political discourse at more qualitative different level than rhetorical and other linguistic methods of research. Discourse analysis is presented as a method of researching hidden meanings in politics in this article.

In differentiating 3T3-L1 cells, lipid spheres, the endoplasmic reticulum (ER), microperoxisomes, and mitochondria form "constellations" that may reflect the interplay of lipid metabolizing enzymes in these organelles. ER cisternae are also situated very close to "rosettes,"plasmalemmal specializations found in mature adipocytes in vivo. As in hepatocytes and absorptive cells of the intestine, this spatial relationship of ER and plasmalemma suggests a role for rosettes in the uptake of exogenous lipid precursors. The morphological differentiation of 3T3-L1 preadipocytes includes the loss of "stress fibers" and the appearance of microfilament like structures that encase, in a complex manner, the cytosolic lipid spheres that appear during differentiation. Other features described for the first time in 3T3-L1 preadipocytes include: (a) the presence of an extensive acid phosphatase (AcPase) positive GERL from which coated vesicles apparently arise (these coated vesicles display AcPase activity and are much smaller and far more numerous than the coated vesicles that seem to arise from the plasmalemmal coated pits); (b) the abundance of AcPase-positive autophagic vacuoles; and (c) a high level of alpha-naphthyl-acetate-esterase activity which, by light microscopy cytochemistry, appears to be localized in the cytosol.

Abstract Stabilizing certified nursing assistant (CNA) employment is necessary for maintaining care networks and providing high quality of care for nursing home (NH) residents. This study’s objective was to examine the relationship of high wages and empowerment practices on CNA retention. We used the 2015 Ohio Biennial Survey to construct a facility-level dataset of 547 NHs and estimated multivariable linear regressions. NHs that provided both high wages and high empowerment were associated with a 12.95 percentage-point improvement in the CNA retention rate (SE = 4.53, t-value = 2.86, p = 0.0045). High wages and a high empowerment score did not have significant effects individually (p &gt; .05). Retention rates were similar between NHs that lacked high wages and scored low on the empowerment scale, and NHs that provided one at a high level but not the other. Implications for better retaining CNAs require multiple empowerment practices combined with high hourly wages.
