Radioactive background is very important with regard to the exposure of the population to radiation, many countries of the world measure the rate of exposure caused by natural radiation for different purposes, where radioactive pollution represents an important problem as a result of the spread and the frequent use of radioactive materials in different applications, such as medicine, agriculture, industry, and others, and some industrial facilities in the city of Misurata like Libyan Iron Company use some techniques that depend on radioactive sources. In this study, over a whole year with its four seasons, the levels of radiation background were evaluated in the area surrounding the Libyan Iron and Steel Company in the Qasr Ahmed region in Misurata city and within the company’s. It is measured for primary and secondary directions for a distance of 8 km. The radiation levels outside and inside the company’s perimeter were within the natural limits of the radiation background in the area, radiation levels do not different between the monitoring points that were measured within the company’s borders from those that were measured in the area surrounding the company. The radiation levels are not affected by the measurement season, and therefore that the obsession of radioactive contamination that some people have is unfounded and that the situation from this aspect is reassuring.

In the article presented, the authors have attempted to define the development of post-industrial facilities, on the example of a thematic trail located in Bydgoszcz, as well as to assess the impact of this route on the city’s attractiveness. The TeH2O thematic trail is an example of a business model that utilizes post-industrial facilities for the development of a business partnership between the route facilities, the objects located in the vicinity, as well as the route participants. The article discusses the use of post-industrial facilities for tourist purposes and the legal aspects associated with the process of transforming such facilities. This paper presents the results of a research carried out on two groups of respondents, i.e., the residents of the city of Bydgoszcz and the tourists who have visited or are about to visit the city of Bydgoszcz. As a result of the research carried out, it has been found that the thematic trail examined affects the attractiveness of the city of Bydgoszcz. Both the respondents from the city of Bydgoszcz as well as the tourists visiting the city acknowledged it. The TeH2O thematic trail is more popular among the inhabitants of Bydgoszcz than among the visitors.

Physical Education is one of the subjects that arouses the most interest in children. The aim of this study is to find out the opinion that primary school students have about the Physical Education class. Drawings from a sample of 62 students from an educational centre in the city of Jaén, aged between six and eight years old, were analysed. The results show that the larger size of the drawings corresponds to the aspects that are to be emphasised. This subject is carried out regularly in the sports pavilion of the centre, making frequent use of materials such as sticks, hoops or balls. Cheerful colours are used, reflecting their enthusiasm for the subject. The smiling facial expression represents the schoolchildren’s interest in the subject. The most popular games or sports are basketball and pichi, both of them collective.

Summary Introduction: Practical and portable the personal stereos if had become almost indispensable accessories in the day the day. Studies disclose that the portable players of music can cause auditory damages in the long run for who hear music in high volume for a drawn out time. Objective: to verify the prevalence of auditory symptoms in users of amplified players and to know its habits of use Method: Observational prospective study of transversal cut carried through in three institutions of education of the city of Salvador BA, being two of public net and one of the private net. 400 students had answered to the questionnaire, of both the sex, between 14 and 30 years that had related the habit to use personal stereos. Results: The symptoms most prevalent had been hyperacusis (43.5%), auricular fullness (30.5%) and humming (27.5), being that the humming is the symptom most present in the population youngest. How much to the daily habits: 62.3% frequent use, 57% in raised intensities, 34% in drawn out periods. An inverse relation between exposition time was verified and the band of age (p = 0,000) and direct with the prevalence of the humming. Conclusion: Although to admit to have knowledge on the damages that the exposition the sound of high intensity can cause the hearing, the daily habits of the young evidence the inadequate use of the portable stereos characterized by long periods of exposition, raised intensities, frequent use and preference for the insertion phones. The high prevalence of symptoms after the use suggests a bigger risk for the hearing of these young.

This article examines the efforts of one British steel company to acquire knowledge about American industrial productivity in the first post-World War II decade. It argues that company information-gathering initiatives in this period were overshadowed by the work of the formal productivity missions of the Marshall Plan era. In particular, it compares the activities of the Steel Company of Wales with the Anglo-American Council on Productivity (AACP), whose iron and steel industry productivity team report was published in 1952. Based on evidence from its business records, this study shows that the Steel Company of Wales was undertaking its own international productivity investigations, which started earlier and were more extensive and differently focused from those of the AACP. It makes the case for viewing companies as active participants in the gathering and dissemination of productivity knowledge in Britain’s steel sector after 1945.

A brief description of the industrial and logistics center operating in the city of Novorossiysk on the coast of the Tsemesskaya Bay in the Black Sea is presented. According to remote sensing data, the area of open pit mining of rock dumps dumped during the development of three marl deposits for use at four cement plants was determined. According to the results of satellite imagery and analytical calculations, downward trends in changes in the density of vegetation cover in territories with natural landscapes adjacent to the territory of industrial facilities located on the coast of the Tsemesskaya Bay were revealed.

Resumen: Se analiza el tratamiento de la idea de río y sus relaciones con la ciudad en los libros de texto de Educación Secundaria, con el fin de valorar su influencia en la comprensión de los fenómenos fluviales en entornos urbanos por los escolares. Se han revisado textos de ciencias naturales y ciencias sociales de uso frecuente en España y se han sometido a análisis de contenido mediante selección y tratamiento de unidades de información, siguiendo un sistema de categorías relacionadas con el concepto de río y su interacción con la ciudad. Se concluye que la relación ciudad-río tiene escasa presencia en los libros de texto, está marcada por el valor económico del agua, el río como amenaza y en el ahorro doméstico como único compromiso. Esta visión mercantilista, antropocéntrica y superficial no facilita el aprendizaje crítico de la realidad ni ayuda al cambio necesario en las relaciones de las ciudades con sus ríos.Abstract: The treatment of the idea of river and its relations with the city is analyzed in Secondary Education textbooks, in order to assess its influence on the understanding of fluvial phenomena in urban environments by schoolchildren. Texts of natural sciences and social sciences of frequent use in Spain have been reviewed and have been subjected to content analysis by selection and treatment of information units, following a system of categories related to the river concept and its interaction with the city. It is concluded that the relationship city-river has little presence in textbooks, is marked by the economic value of water, the river as a threat and in domestic savings as the only commitment. This mercantilist, anthropocentric and superficial vision does not facilitate the critical learning of reality or help the necessary change in the relationships between cities and their rivers.
