Пошуково-ексгумаційні роботи на території Радошинської сільської ради 2014 року

На території Волині збереглися численні пам’ятки періоду І світової війни: братські могили російських воїнів у с. Ромашківка, м.Берестечко, с.Перемиль, с.Угринів, с.Бучин, с.Судче, с.Троянівка, с.Чорниж, с.Квітневе, с.Купичів, м.Володимирі-Волинському, м.Ковелі, смт.Рокині, с.Березичі, с.Шлапань, с.Підліски, м.Рожище, с.Тишковичі, с.Кисилені, с.Зубильно, с.Струмівка, с.Переспа, с.Щурин, с.Немир, с.Літогоща, с.Кияж, с.Відути, с.Поляна, с.Вишнів, братська могила російський, австрійських і німецьких воїнів у с.Свидники, численні поховання навколо с.Костюхнівка, австрійські могили у с.Мельниця. Тому не дивно, що досить часто у поле зору археологів потрапляють і нові не відомі поховання війни столітньої давнини

Extending political participation in China: new opportunities for citizens in the policy process

Authoritarian political systems are portrayed as offering few opportunities for citizens to participate in politics – particularly in the policy process. This paper’s contribution is to set out new mechanisms that enable Authoritarian political systems are portrayed as offering few opportunities for citizens to participate in politics – particularly in the policy process. This paper’s contribution is to set out new mechanisms that enable Chinese citizens to evaluate government performance, contribute to decision-making, shape policy agendas and feed back on implementation. Based on fieldwork in the city of Hangzhou, we argue that the local party-state orchestrates citizen participation in the policy process, but members of the public nevertheless do have influence. Political participation is widening in China, but it is still controlled. It is not yet clearly part of a process of democratization, but it does establish the principle of citizen rights to oversee the government

A generation apart? Youth and political participation in Britain

Conventional wisdom holds that young people in Britain are alienated from politics, with some claiming that this reflects a wider crisis of legitimacy that should be met by initiatives to increase citizenship. This article addresses these areas, presenting both panel survey and focus group data from first-time voters. It concludes that, contrary to the findings from many predominantly quantitative studies of political participation, young people are interested in political matters, and do support the democratic process. However they feel a sense of anti-climax having voted for the first time, and are critical of those who have been elected to positions of political power. If they are a generation apart, this is less to do with apathy, and more to do with their engaged scepticism about ‘formal’ politics in Britain

Mapping interactions with the chaperone network reveals factors that protect against tau aggregation.

A network of molecular chaperones is known to bind proteins ('clients') and balance their folding, function and turnover. However, it is often unclear which chaperones are critical for selective recognition of individual clients. It is also not clear why these key chaperones might fail in protein-aggregation diseases. Here, we utilized human microtubule-associated protein tau (MAPT or tau) as a model client to survey interactions between ~30 purified chaperones and ~20 disease-associated tau variants (~600 combinations). From this large-scale analysis, we identified human DnaJA2 as an unexpected, but potent, inhibitor of tau aggregation. DnaJA2 levels were correlated with tau pathology in human brains, supporting the idea that it is an important regulator of tau homeostasis. Of note, we found that some disease-associated tau variants were relatively immune to interactions with chaperones, suggesting a model in which avoiding physical recognition by chaperone networks may contribute to disease

The four qualities of life: Ordering concepts and measures of the good life

The terms 'quality-of-life', 'wellbeing' and 'happiness' denote different meanings; sometimes they are used as an umbrella term for all of value, and the other times to denote special merits. This paper is about the specific meanings of the terms. It proposes a classification based on two bi-partitions; between life 'chances' and life 'results', and between 'outer' and 'inner' qualities. Together these dichotomies imply four qualities of life: 1) livability of the environment, 2) life-ability of the individual, 3) external utility of life and 4) inner appreciation of life. This fourfold matrix is applied in three ways: firstly to place related notions and alternative classifications, secondly to explore substantive meanings in various measures for quality of life and thirdly to find out whether quality-of-life can be measured comprehensively. This last question is answered in the negative. Current sum-scores make little sense. The most inclusive summary measure is still how long and happily people live

Perspective on Nanoscaled Magnonic Networks

With the rapid development of artificial intelligence in recent years, mankind is facing an unprecedented demand for data processing. Today, almost all data processing is performed using electrons in conventional complementary metal-oxide-semiconductor (CMOS) circuits. Over the past few decades, scientists have been searching for faster and more efficient ways to process data. Now, magnons, the quanta of spin waves, show the potential for higher efficiency and lower energy consumption in solving some specific problems. While magnonics remains predominantly in the realm of academia, significant efforts are being made to explore the scientific and technological challenges of the field. Numerous proof-of-concept prototypes have already been successfully developed and tested in laboratories. In this article, we review the developed magnonic devices and discuss the current challenges in realizing magnonic circuits based on these building blocks. We look at the application of spin waves in neuromorphic networks, stochastic and reservoir computing and discuss the advantages over conventional electronics in these areas. We then introduce a new powerful tool, inverse design magnonics, which has the potential to revolutionize the field by enabling the precise design and optimization of magnonic devices in a short time. Finally, we provide a theoretical prediction of energy consumption and propose benchmarks for universal magnonic circuits.Comment: 9 pages, 1 figur
