Theoretical consideration of solubility by Hildebrand solubility approach

Pharmaceutical field is widely focusing on solubility parameter models to select solvent or non-solvent that can enhance solvency of drug. Solubility Parameter is very useful concept in understanding the mechanism of solvent and solvency behavior with their applications in pharmaceuticals to open the door of research having focus on theoretical considerations of solubility. Hildebrand and Hansen Solubility Parameter are frequently used to identify solvents.

How to think about people who don’t want to be studied: Further reflections on studying up

It is now routine for anthropologists to study those who exercise power and control wealth and status in any number of societies. Implicit in anthropology’s long-standing commitment to apprehending societies in their totality, and explicit in the call to study up, paying attention to power is just one of the routine things that anthropologists do in the course of their fieldwork. That said, many theoretical and ethical norms in the discipline are calibrated to allow researchers to both know about and protect those with relatively little power who made up much of anthropology’s original topical area of interests. By contrast, studying people who exercise power entails special ethical and theoretical consideration. This article enumerates some of those considerations, and suggests that anthropologists need to have coherent theories of social action in addition to theories of social meaning. The article also suggests that some canonical disciplinary ethical norms are inappropriate for the study of the powerful for empirical and practical reasons.

Prawo do zawierania umów międzynarodowych przez Stolicę Apostolską

The Holy See is a specific (sui generis) subject of the international law. The acknowledgement of the international legal personality is related to the possession of legal capacity and the capacity of legal international proceedings. The Holy See is regarded as a sovereign subject of international law, which has its own rights and obligations concerning international relations. It has the right to send and receive the minister resident (ius legationis), to participate in conferences and to be member of international organizations (ius foederum), as well as the treaty making capacity (ius tractatuum). One of the principal formal contexts in which the question of international legal personality arises is the capacity to make treaties and agreements valid on the international legal plane. The ius tractatuum possessed by the Holy See is not only based on theoretical consideration of international law principles, but has also been amply attested to by the actual practice of states over a very long period.

DistoX calibration tools and the need for calibration checking

For proper cave surveying using DistoX, the device needs to be calibrated with adequate accuracy. Calibrating does not require any tools; but, tools to make calibration easier have been developed. Theoretical consideration shows that the use of certain tools enables one to introduce a type of calibration error that goes undetected by the calibration software. In this study, the existence of such errors is experimentally confirmed and their magnitude is estimated. It is demonstrated to be crucial that the DistoX is calibrated and that the calibration is valid, that is, that the device has not changed since it was last calibrated. No part of the DistoX must have moved or changed its magnetization since calibration, not even the battery. The calibration method used and the quality of the resulting calibration are important too. It is highly recommended that the DistoX be checked immediately before surveying a cave and thus avoid the possibility of using an uncalibrated, not validly calibrated, or poorly calibrated device. To complete the check, a few survey shots are measured multiple times with the device at different roll angles, and the back shot of one of the shots is measured. If the device is properly calibrated, the measurements will agree with each other within the acceptable measurement error. This is not the case for a device that is not properly calibrated.

The Risk as a Communication Phenomenon Within McLuhan’s Global Village

Positioning one of the crucial dimensions of recent global society - global interdependence in the center of interest, the essential goal of this paper is primarily to reflect on the communication potential of global risks as a new reflection of interdependence within McLuhan’s global village. The paper explains how the media’s reduction of the world to the level of a global village has affected and transformed the relevant determinants of various risks, but also the process by which different societies cooperate and communicate to deal with them effectively. Speaking primarily from the perspective of global interdependence, as a product of a globalized-driven change in the communicative-technological-social paradigm, the paper is oriented towards theoretical consideration of the position of risk as a communication phenomenon in the modern age.

Heritage Module within Legal Translation and Interpreting Studies: Didactic Contribution to University Students’ Sustainable Education

This article explores the hypothesis that the concept of heritage is relevant for a university-based degree course in legal translators and interpreters’ training. The research rests on the legal and academic understanding of cultural heritage. The study explores its specifics regarding the English-taught discipline on Legal Translation and Interpreting Studies within the above-mentioned graduate program. The research integrates qualitative tools and statistical instruments, starts with the theoretical consideration of legislative and academic sources, proceeds to the empirical studies of heritage samples, and considers their relevance for the heritage module design within the specified discipline. The experimental design of such a module and its use for the training of students are also part of the present investigation that further explores students’ perceptions of the heritage module under study, with reference to their future career tracks. The study reveals the specifics and components of the heritage framework for the discipline under study and identifies those areas of professional activities for which students consider the heritage module as most useful and relevant. These issues have not been a subject for academic research so far, which contributes to the research relevance and novelty.
