This book ideals with a curious adverbial construction found in Modern Hebrew. The adverbs under consideration are mostly positioned before the verb, but they also show after the verb immediately preceding an argument. I argue that the semantics of the adverbs in the two configurations is distinct, though on first observation it looks that the semantics of the adverbs in the two configurations is identical. In order to account for the semantic...

The variational cluster approximation, based on the self-energy functional theory for electrons, is one of the quantum cluster methods, we introduced to investigate the broken symmetry states of strongly correlated systems. Layered organic compounds, in which dimers of organic molecules form an anisotropic triangular lattice, are among materials that show frustration. We discuss the two-dimensional one-band Hubbard model used for studying thes...

Verification of declared components in food products is essential to ensure transparency in food labeling and safeguard consumers' trusts, religious faiths, health, and hard earned fortunes. Conventional methods based on PCR-based DNA analysis has reached a ceiling stage and has limitations in detecting short-length DNA markers which survive in harsh conditions. PCR-based methods are also expensive and need product authentication to eliminate ...

This study attempts to offer an ecological interpretation of Genesis 1:1-2:4a in view of the question as to what extent this passage bears footprints of anthropocentrism, on the one hand, and/or ecological wisdom, on the other hand. Extant ecological readings of this text tend to either recover its ecofriendliness, or they criticise the text on the basis of its dominion and subdual language in Genesis 1:26-28 which seems to go against the grai...

At the end of 2007 it was estimated that around 800, 000 people were living with HIV in Western and Central Europe. This represents 8.1 % increase over the estimated 740, 000 in 2006. Although the number of people living with HIV and AIDS in Europe is relatively small when compared to the number of people living with HIV in areas such as Asia and sub-Saharan Africa, HIV/AIDS in Western and Central Europe is still considered a major public heal...

At present, the world is manifested by the absence of ethics not only in relationships, but also the business and living conditions. Absence of ethics allows the creation of consumer thinking, which brings up the cost in a desirable, but also in unwanted consumption. The management of this translates focus on monitoring developments quantity. therefore measurable and thus not respecting the unity between quality and quantity. Theory and practi...

The lives of the entire global community are increasingly jeopardized by the effects of climate change. Agriculture which everybody depends on for food is the most highly affected sector. Rice, the second most staple food crop in Ghana has experienced a tremendous decline in yield over the decades in Northern Region of Ghana. Each year, farmers are changing their ways of cultivating rice either consciously or unconsciously. In order to conduct...

This book is a critical comparative study of the governance frameworks for resource revenues in the Ghanaian mineral and petroleum sectors. It examines the law and legal institutions of both sectors with regard to transparency and accountability in the management of resource rents. In particular it argues that the experiences of the petroleum sector governance regime can be used to reform the mining sector. The book further argues that the ava...

Development in the fisheries sector particularly post-harvest sub-sector has failed to deliver many of its promises to fisherfolks in Nigeria. The policies imposed from above by international agencies and central governments have been sadly at variance with the preference, needs and constraints of fisherfolks. Hence, technologies introduced are not adopted. Processing activities over the years evolved through application of indigenous knowledg...

This book consists the effect of the different legume mixtures and levels of fertilizers on the quantity and qualities of fodder oat in Rajasthan, India. From these findings, the application of nitrogen, phosphorus and potash (120 kg N+60 kg P2O5+30 kg K2O) and sowing of fodder oat with berseem in 2:1 ratio appear to be better practice for enhancing productivity and qualities of fodder followed by sowing of oat with lucern in 2:1 ratio in the ...

The main aim of this study was to examine the personality profiles and personality disorders in alcohol dependent patients and to find out the incidence of psychosis in them. In the current study it was found that Lower education and socioeconomic status also plays a major role in alcoholism. Clinical variables like age at initiation, age at dependence and duration of dependence influence the course and out come of alcohol dependence in terms ...

To researchers of homogeneous olefin polymerization catalysts and to the broader catalysis community. This work systematically explores the process of constructing quantitative structure activity relationships (QSARs) to predict rate constants of various reaction steps from catalyst structure. Specifically, this work describes how to construct accurate and broadly applicable QSARs by fitting quantum chemistry calculations to experimental data....

After thirty years of its invention, the T-Scan system, a computerized occlusal analyzer, seems to be the answer in diagnosing and treating patients with occlusion-related temporomandibular disorders. This book is based on a Health Technology Assessment that includes a review of the diagnostic, clinical and economic features of the T-Scan system. Evidence indicates that the T-Scan system is far more accurate and reliable than the conventional ...

With advent of sophisticated equipment we know much in life science, but in many aspects we understand little, consider unexplained phenomena as gift of nature. But nature cannot act in self styled spontaneous manner. It should obey certain defined physical rules. Simple classical chemical reactions failed to solve various natural puzzles. Nature keeps continuity in the formation of universe to tiny creatures up to smallest bacteria, virus or ...

Dick Swiveller, the wittily named park ranger who is by turns both ill-tempered and kind, Winston 'Franzia' Weatherby, the only wino Swiveller knows who really drinks wine, One-eyed Rita. . . Fern. . . One-Beer Bob. . . these are just some of the memorable characters who inhabit Jerry Wilson's stories. Drawing heavily on personal experience and with keen eyed observation of the human condition, Wilson writes about broken lives, the dispossesse...

Wie können wir Frieden finden in den inneren Kriegen, die dem von uns ersehnten Leben im Wege stehen? Seit mehr als 35 Jahren erforscht Ann Weiser Cornell das Geheimnis emotionaler Prozesse und lehrt und schreibt darüber - unter anderem auch über das Paradox, dass wir zu mehr Ganzheit finden, wenn wir unsere inneren Teile anerkennen, dass die am tiefsten verachteten Orte in uns unseren größten Reichtum enthalten und dass der Felt Sense des Kör...
