Spectral characteristics of the quasi-biennial oscillation of total Ozone

The 12-month running means of the 50 hPa low latitude zonal wind and total ozone values for the latitude zones NP (North Polar), NT (North Temperate), TRO (Tropical), ST (South Temperate), SP (South Polar) were subjected to special analysis, separately over the two successive 18 year intervals, 1958-1975 and 1976-1993. In the interval 1958-1975, the wind had a prominent peak at 2.45 years and two smaller but significant peaks at 1.98 and 3.05 years. For ozone only NP. NT and ST had roughly similar peaks (2.37, 2.41, 2.48 years), while TRO and SP had different peaks (2.27 and 2.12 years). All ozone series had significant peaks at 20-21 months, barely significant in the wind series. Ozone peaks were noticed in the 3-5 years band also. In the interval 1976-1993, the patterns were different. The wind had only one prominent peak at 2.51 years. For ozone, NP, NT, ST had roughly similar peaks (2.41, 2.45, 2.45 years) while TRO. Speed different peaks (2.32 and 2.29 years). All ozone series had significant peaks at 20-22 months and in the 3-5 year band; but these were absent in the wind series. The 3-5 year band probably indicates ENSO effects. A cross-correlation analysis between wind and ozone showed that TRO maxima coincided with westerly wind maxima. while NT, ST and NT, NP were phase shifted by 4 and 6 seasons.

Prevention of Crimes Committed by Juveniles

The extremely large number of criminal offenses committed by juveniles and the imposition of sanctions on them, prompted us to make a special analysis of juvenile delinquency and to prevent the commission of these criminal offenses by minors, analyzing factors and causes the filing of criminal offenses by minors, also contributing to preventive measures and their factorization to reduce penal sanctions imposed by courts against minors. Also in this paper we discussed some ideas how can we prevent crime made by minors, sectors which need to be factored and to have attention to the prevention of crime above crime prevention as three crucial factors in reducing the number of offenses criminal by minors and they are: The role of the police, the judiciary and the role of the mass media. The term prevention (prohibition), is borrowed pragmatically by vocabulary and vocabulary of medical practice. In the broadest sense, two basic contents of this notion have been profiled, the first of which has to do with intervention as a primary form, while the second form has to do with reaction and reaction before the unwanted criminal phenomenon is manifested for society. In Latin, praeventio (prae-venio, ventim paraeventus, praevenire) marks the definition and the term pass, reach forward, overcome a certain phenomenon, or as it might be said on the basis of common sense prevention, precaution, obstruction, avoidance in advance. The notion of prevention contains in itself all the measures taken in a planned, premeditated and organized manner with which an attempt will be made to eliminate or reduce the direct causes and of criminal and punishable behaviors (V. Latifi, 2013, p. 179).

Abstract : Spatial analysis is often termed as special analysis therefore widely used in various studies. The study of urban growth is one among them. Identifying the pattern of urban growth and its determinant factors was the objective of this research. The study was located in the inner area of the ring road of Yogyakarta. Multitemporal land use data i.e. 1993 and 2014 were used as main data in this study. Spatial analysis was utilized to identify the distribution as well as the pattern of urban growth. A combination of spatial and statistical analysis was used to identify the determinant factor of urban growth. This study shows that during 199 and 2014, about 766,4 hectares of non-built-up land in the study area had been converted into built-up land. The pattern of urban growth was dispersed in general but the direction tends to the northeast of the study area. Transportation network, particularly the ring road and local roads were considered as the main determinants of urban growth.

The Foundations of N.K. Mikhailovsky's Theory. Formation of “Subjective Sociology”, Late 1860s – mid-1870s

Nikolai Konstantinovich Mikhaylovsky (1842–1904) is one of the most well-known and influential Russian publicists of the last third of the 19th and the beginning of 20th century, ideologist of the Narodniki movement, the author of the conception known as “subjective sociology” and the editor of journal Russian wealth at the end of his life. Yet, while his role in the history of Russian social movement or literary-aesthetic views have been quite fully studied, his social theory has rarely become the object of the special analysis during the last century. On the one hand, it was shadowed by the theories which appeared earlier and had more influence even abroad (outside the Russian empire) as, for example, the ideas of Herzen, Bakunin, Chernyshevsky, Lavrov. On the other hand, Mikhaylovsky, who was severely criticized by Russian social democrats in 1894–1901, was perceived as a rather weak theorist. In this article, we demonstrate the essential differences between the early conceptual advances of Mikhaylovsky and P.L. Lavrov and assert that the conception of the former was influenced both by the rethinking of the Darwinism from a viewpoint of understanding of nature and by the conclusions for social theory. Unlike Lavrov, Mikhaylovsky, as well as Herzen, was an advocate of non-teleological understanding of progress and favored the interpretation of history as logical yet free from strict determinism. In conclusion, Mikhaylovsky’s opinion about the society, which was formed at the end of 1860s – first quarter of 1870s, appears as a quite consistent and elaborated system, an answer to the theoretical challenges. Firstly, on the part of the Darwinism and the attempt to apply it to the analysis of the society. Secondly, on the part of the organicism. Lastly, we give an interpretation to the decline of the public interest to the social theory of Mikhaylovsky at the end of the 19th – beginning of 20th century.

ПРИКАЗ ВЕЛИКОГ РАТА У КЊИЗИ ЖИВОТ ЧОВЕКА НА БАЛКАНУ СТАНИСЛАВА КРАКОВА

The paper analyzes the review of the Great War (1914-1918) in the memoir book The Life of a Man in the Balkans, by the writer Stanislav Krakov (1895-1968), which he wrote most probably between 1936 and 1968, and was published from a manuscript legacy three decades later after his death, in 1997. Krakov directly participated as a participant at the front in three wars, the First and Second Balkan Wars and the Great War, during which he was severely wounded three times and awarded several times for heroism. The subject of our special analysis is a review of events from the First World War. This refers primarily to the mobilization and war operations in 1914, and then to the withdrawal of the serbian army at the end of 1915 and the beginning of 1916 through Montenegro and Albania, all the way to the Greek island of Corfu. Krakov presented the most complete picture of the war operations in the records from the Salonica Front (1916-1918), as well as in the review of the war operations for the liberation of the entire country until the end of 1918. It is one of the most exciting books of Serbian documentary-artistic prose written in the 20th century, in which the features of autobiographical-memoir and novel prose intersect in a creative way.

Comprehensive list of semi-detached double-lined eclipsing binaries with Gaia DR2 data

Semi-detached eclipsing systems play an important role in our understanding of stellar properties. In the present study, we have cross-matched a previously compiled comprehensive list of SD double-lined eclipsing binaries, containing 119 systems, with Gaia DR2 and analyze the result. A special analysis is conducted for systems with controversial data on parallaxes. It is shown that Gaia DR2 effective temperatures should be used with caution, as they do not describe hot SD systems well. We have also compiled an empirical relation between the temperature of the accretor and the donor.

SEMANTICS AND FUNCTIONING OF DISCOURSE MARKER SORA IN KARACHAY-BALKAR LANGUAGE

Предлагаемая работа выполняется в рамках текущего исследовательского проекта, направленного на описание феномена эвиденциальности в карачаево-балкарском языке. Актуальность обусловлена отсутствием исследований дискурсивных маркеров как одного из распространенных средств выражения категории эвиденциальности в карачаево-балкарском языке. Цель исследования - определение семантики и функционального потенциала отдельно взятого дискурсивного маркера карачаево-балкарского языка. Объектом выступает многофункциональный дискурсив сора. Задачи исследования - выявить особенности семантики и синтаксического употребления данного дискурсивного маркера и описать его функции в предложении и тексте. Материалом послужил корпус примеров, содержащих языковые единицы исследуемого феномена, отобранные методом сплошной выборки. Установлено, что функциональный потенциал значений маркера сора гораздо шире его словарных дефиниций. Являясь транскатегориальной единицей языка, дискурсив сора демонстрирует следующие функциональные возможности: актуализация высказывания; выражение коммуникативных намерений говорящего; регулирование интеракции между коммуникантами; способность изменять первичные значения и функции в дискурсе; обеспечение когерентности дискурса в целом и демонстрация различных смысловых отношений, возникающих между компонентами текста. Анализ языкового материала также свидетельствует, что исследуемая лексема является средством выражения предположительной инференциальной семантики, основанной на логическом умозаключении. The proposed work is performed as a part of an on-going research project aimed at description of evidentiality in Karachay-Balkhar language. The paper represents the study of semantics and functional variability of the most widely used discourse marker SORA. The functional properties of this marker are mentioned in dictionaries, grammars and number of specific studies, but they were not subjected to special analysis. The paper aims at bridging this gap. We identify that discourse marker sora is highly polyfunctional. Being a discourse marker with an expressive, conative or discourse structuring function sora presents a more increased pragmatic scope than those with a textual function operating at a more profound level of the discourse. The experimentally obtained data prove that sora is capable to perform a variety of communicative and pragmatic functions: reflecting the process of interaction between the author and the reader, conveying the author’s attitude to what has been said, expressing inferential meaning, based on logical reasoning and ensuring the text coherence. The results have shown that the topic is characterized by rich empirical detail and intriguing theoretical issues. The summarization of these issues can serve as a start for further reading and exploration. The study also contributes to the general theory of evidentiality.

Beauvoir on Existential Thought

It is argued that some of Beauvoir’s short, journalistic pieces shed new light on her overall philosophical positions. Special analysis is made of “Existentialism and Popular Wisdom”, with its advertence to our standard take on human affairs. Part of the argument is that Beauvoir expands on notions taken from the common culture, and that she does so in a way that sheds new light on existentialist concepts. Taking into consideration the extent of her work with Sartre, we can assume that Beauvoir is making powerful statements with her analysis. It is also important to note that this work represents a level of publication intended for the average French reader, and that much of her writing in this vein has received very little comment.
