Polskie ekwiwalenty greckiego leksemu γάμος w Nowym Testamencie Biblii Leopolity (1561) – swadziebny, gody, wesele – a problem stratyfikacji chronologicznej leksyki tego przekładu

There are same chronological diversified lexis layers In the Bible edited by Jan Leopolita and published in Cracow in 1561. The analysis of Polish equivalents for the Greek lexeme γάμος (or its Latin equivalents in the Vulgate – nuptiae, nuptialis) ‘a marriage, wedding, weddingceremony; plur: a wedding-feast’, i. e. swadziebny, gody, wesele, referring to empirical system and text data, acquired from lexica of the historic Polish and from texts of other Renaissance Polish renderings of the New Testament, proved chronological diversity of the equivalents. The lexeme swadziebny belongs to an older lexis layer, probably representing the lexicon of the former translation, perhaps medieval. The lexeme wesele represents a new lexis layer which may have been introduced into the text by Jan Leopolita, as the effect of his editorial efforts. Chronological status of the lexeme wesele in the analyzed Biblical rendering lexicon is ambiguous. It should be considered as an evidence of an traditional lexis layer. It may have been introduced into the text as a substitute of the lexeme swadziebny.

Homeopathy emerging as nanomedicine

Background: Homeopathy is a time-tested two-century old empirical system of healing. Homeopathic medicines are prepared through a characteristic process known as potentization, where serial dilutions are performed with strong strokes at each step of dilution. Homeopathy is controversial because most medicines do not contain one single molecule of the corresponding starting-substance. Aim: To investigate a possible nanoscience mechanism of action of homeopathic medicines. Methodology: Ultra-pure samples were prepared and were examined under scanning (SEM) and transmission electron microscope (TEM) along with selected area nanodiffraction (SAD) and energy-dispersive X-ray analysis (EDX). Also trace element analysis (TEA) for silicon was performed. Results: Homeopathic medicines showed not to be ‘nothing’, but exhibited nanoparticles and conglomerates of them, which had crystalline nature and were rich in silicon. Conclusions: During the violent strokes involved in potentization, information arising from the serially diluted starting-substance might be encrypted by epitaxy on silicon-rich crystalline nanoparticles present in the resulting homeopathic medicine. The ‘size’ of the information encrypted on nanoparticles might vary together with the degree of dilution. As homeopathic medicines exhibit healing effects, these nanoparticles along with the interfacial water on their surface might carry this information - which biological systems are able to identify - to the target. As various forms of silica are known to interact with proteins and cells of the immune system, homeopathy might represent a nanomedicine system. Possible confirmation, however, requires further research in materials and interfacial water.

ILMU PEMERINTAHAN DALAM PRAKTEK : PERSPEKTIF EROFA KONTINENTAL

Problems and phenomenon of government have existed for thousands of years,because the existence of the government is an indisputable empirical system and is a human need. In government is a regulation of the relationship between the ruler and the governed, so that order, security, prosperity, and justice can be realized. Government science as a scientific idea has actually appeared since 1822 in The United State, namely with the publication of The Introduction to The Science of Government Written For The Youth of United State. Likewise in 1876 SV Blakeslee wrote about Archology or The Science of Government. Actually the existence of government science in the future depends on the extent to which the activities,creativity and productivity of government scientists in examining existing empirical phenomena so that they can form new theories. The emergence of The Continental European Schools and Anglo Saxon basically, because they actively observe the existing phenomena so that they are able to produce a paradigm. In simple terms, we can also see the phenomenon of indigenous government that is around us, the phenomenon of governance that is prevailing and embraced by various groups of nation today (contemporary government), we can even see the phenomenon of global government.

Evaluating Degradation Coefficients from Existing System Models

A generalization of the Degradation-Entropy Generation (DEG) theorem to multi-disciplinary multi-physics system-process analysis via a combination with pre-existing system models is presented in this article. Existing models and the DEG methodology are reviewed, and a method for evaluating degradation coefficients Bi is proposed. These coefficients characterize the system’s transformation based on active dissipative mechanisms, including temperature effects. The consistency of entropy generation in characterizing degradation is then inherited by these often-empirical system models, thereby rendering them more robust and applicable to similar systems without the need for numerous tests and measurements for model corrections. The approach applies to all systems and can quickly analyze and predict a system’s performance and degradation, even in the absence of experimental data (using known properties and material constants). Demonstrated applications herein include mechanically loaded systems (frictional wear, grease shearing, fatigue loading), electrochemical energy systems, thermal processes, and others.

Methodical approach to building system of motivation of the project team

Currently investment and construction activities are based on the implementation of development projects. As any project’s success heavily depends on joint efforts of a project team members, there is an urgent need for a motivation system able to stimulate team members’ result-orientation and satisfy their individual needs. The Project Management Body of Knowledge (PMBOK) methodology is suggested as a basis for building a sound development team motivation system, with its motivational tools correlating to stages of project management. The purpose of this article is to build methodical approach to system of motivation of the development project team. The methodological approach is formed taking into account the correspondence of the goal and the type of motivation depending on the stage of project management, as well as on the basis of the principles of forming the motivation system of the project team. The result is a constructed conceptual model for the development of a motivation system for the development project team based on the principles of PMBOK. Methods of comparative, empirical, system and economic analysis were used to substantiate the propositions put forward in the article.

Consensus and majoritarian democracies: Problems with under-informed single-level analyses

I argue that when conceiving or assessing normative ideas about how we should organize society into the kind of ecosystem we desire, it is unwise to completely ignore empirical conditions. I also demonstrate that when evaluating empirical difficulties attending a social system, it is also unwise to do so in total oblivion to the normative idea or objective informing the establishment of such a system. Each of these assessments I call an under informed single-level analysis. By contrast I advocate a multi-level analysis (by which we evaluate both the normative and empirical dimensions of an idea or a social system) or, at the least, an informed single-level analysis (by which we evaluate either a normative idea or an empirical system with an implicit awareness of the content of the other level). I demonstrate that these models of analysis would never yield the same conclusions as an under informed single-level analysis. For my case studies I focus on the various models of analyses used in the debate about liberal majoritarian and consensus/communal democracies.

Crowding Effects in an Empirical Predator-Prey System

This paper uses a Lotka-Volterra (predator-prey) modeling framework to investigate the dynamical link between the biomass of an empirical predator, and that of its prey. We use a system of ordinary (ODE) differential equations to describe the system dynamics, and derive theoretical conditions for stability, in terms of system parameters. We derive the empirical system parameters by fitting the ODE system to empirical data, using non-constrained optimization.We present results to show that the predator biomass is regulated by that of the prey. Furthermore, that the system dynamics is subject to Hopf bifurcation, conditioned on independent second-order terms in the ODE system. In ecological terms, the findings translate into evidence for existence of population crowding (density) effects.

Population Dynamic Regulators In An Empirical Predator-Prey System

ABSTRACTThis paper investigates stability conditions of an empirical predator-prey system using a model that includes a single delay term, τ, in description of the predator dynamics. We derive theoretical conditions on τ, in terms of other model parameters, and determine how changes in these conditions define different stability regimes of the system. We derive optimal model parameters by fitting model to empirical data, using unconstrained optimization. The optimization results are combined with those from the theoretical analysis, to make inference about the empirical system stability.Our results show that Hopf bifurcation occurs in the predatory-prey system when τ exceeds a theoretically derived value τ* > 0. This value represents the critical time for prey availability in advance of the optimal predator growth period. Set into an ecological context, our findings provide mathematical evidence for validity of the match-mismatch hypothesis, for this particular species.
