The carbohydrate losses after fungal, phosphoric acid, and fungal followed by phosphoric acid pretreatments were 7.89%, 35.65%, and 33.77%, respectively. The pretreatments changed the hydrogen bonds of cellulose and linkages between lignin and carbohydrate, which is associated with crystallinity of cellulose of OPEFB. Lateral Order Index (LOI) of OPEFB... | | Book Review: The Three Cultures: Natural Sciences, Social Sciences, and the Humanities in the 21st Century Aiming at reconstructing the essence of Kagan's arguments, this book review comprises three main sections. First, I will elaborate the varying nature of the three cultures in term of their characteristics, goals, foci, vocabularies, strengths, limitations, and so on. Second, extracting from Kagan's epistemological propositions, I will discuss a possible methodology for going about research— especially, on cross-science collaboration—will be asserted. And, third, I will lay out strengths and shortcomings of the book. | | Derrida's Errors and the Possibility of Canonic Art One of the problems in phenomenological approaches to art, is to understand the link between the ontologies of art media and questions of value. Unfortunately, recent discussions of art's broader cultural context have not helped in this task. There has been a widespread assumption that the historical circumstances of art's cultural production, its constituencies of reception, and contexts of transmission and the like, render artistic value relative to the time and place of its production.My purpose in this critical discussion, is to move beyond the restrictions and contradictions of such... | | Shepherding the Polis: Gender, Reputation and Environmental Policy in Hellenistic Boiotia. This paper brings a new perspective both to the study of gender and the history of agriculture by illuminating the active role of women in the financial, political and agricultural infrastructure of Hellenistic Greece. The argument is threefold: (1) women in mainland Greece during the Hellenistic period participated in large-scale pastoral production; (2) these women used their wealth to assist the state in times of financial and military difficulty; and (3) in so doing they were competing on equal footing with male citizens for public honors, what the ancient Greeks called philotimia. | | THE PROMOTION OF YOUTH CIVIC ENGAGEMENT IN THE PEDAGOGICAL PROCESS_Summary of Doctoral Thesis The doctoral thesis of Pāvels Jurs in pedagogy, in sub-sector school pedagogy: „The promotion of youth civic engagement in the pedagogical process", developed in the Institute of Educational Sciences of Liepaja University, scientific advisor: Dr. paed. professor Alīda Samuseviča during the period from 2012 to 2016.

Risk and situational perception are identified as key factors in the decision making process, often playing a lead role in the adoption of security mechanisms. However, risk awareness and perception have been poorly investigated in the field of eHealth wearables. Whilst end-users often have limited understanding of privacy and security of wearables, assessing the perceived risks and consequences will help shape the usability of future security mechanisms. This paper present a survey of the the risks and... | | |
