Silva, Susanne Pinheiro Costa e., and Maria Cristina Smith Menandro. "Representações de idosos sobre a vacina da gripe." Ciência & Saúde Coletiva 18, no. 8 (August 2013): 2179–88. http://dx.doi.org/10.1590/s1413-81232013000800002.
Abstract:
O presente estudo objetivou conhecer as representações sociais de saúde e imunização para idosos vacinados/não vacinados com a Influenza. Adotamos como referencial teórico a Teoria das Representações Sociais, tendo cunho qualitativo. A pesquisa foi desenvolvida com trinta idosos, sendo quinze vacinados contra a gripe e quinze não vacinados. Realizou-se entrevista individual, utilizando questionário para caracterização e Teste de Associação Livre de Palavras (TALP) como instrumentos de coleta. A análise ocorreu através da Teoria do Núcleo Central, pela ordem das evocações. Os dados revelaram diferenças entre as representações para os dois grupos: os idosos vacinados representaram a saúde como sinônimo de bem-estar, que possibilita a manutenção das atividades cotidianas, e a imunização como algo que protege de diversos males; já aqueles não vacinados definiram saúde como produto da vontade divina, e a vacina como algo que protege, mas que causa variadas reações, o que os desencoraja a utilizá-la. O estudo apontou para a importância de educar em saúde e desmitificar o imaginário sobre esta como também acerca de vacinas, uma vez que hábitos saudáveis precisam ser cada dia mais estimulados, minimizando os altos índices de morbimortalidade evitáveis.

Abstract:
Se pretende establecer qué tipo de conexión tuvieron las respuestas que implementó el Estado uruguayo con el saber médico dominante, bajo la forma de políticas sanitarias, ante la epidemia de gripe de 1918-1919. El problema se puede desdoblar en dos aspectos: ¿Cuáles fueron las aristas más salientes del pensamiento médico al tener que enfrentar la epidemia de gripe durante los años 1918-1919? Y, ¿cómo se vinculó el saber médico con las acciones que llevó adelante el Estado uruguayo? Las respuestas intentarán ser dadas a través de una indagatoria indicial en virtud de dos razones: Primero, las fuentes consultadas presentan un grado muy alto de dispersión y heterogeneidad, segundo, quien redacta se encuentra en el contexto de la exploración del problema.

Abstract:
In the development of market economy in Russia, the main trend in the log processing industry is the implementation of the cutting edge technology and effective innovation in order to boost the labor productivity and reduce the production cost on the basis of environmentally friendly and rational use of timber resources. Taking into account the important role of water log transport used for timber rafting, the problem of efficiency of loading and unloading of flat rafts at log unloading berths is quite urgent. The current research considers the ways of increasing unloading efficiency of multi-row flat rafts at logging enterprise berths. The aim of this research is to present the results of the experiments of unloading multi-row flat rafts at logging enterprise berth. In these experiments, a load lifting crane equipped with special load grippers was used for unloading multi-row flat rafts at log unloading berth. During the experiments, the duration of unloading sequence from water to the unloading berth was defined and applied to multi-row flat rafts calculated by Northern (Arctic) Federal University named after M.V. Lomonosov and Volga State University of Technology based on the results of the laboratory experiments and statistical processing of the obtained data. We also carried out a strength test of the crane load gripper used for transposition of lengthy flat rafts in timber onshore yards and log unloading berths. The research was carried out on lifting force fluctuation amplitude and oscillation period of the load gripper during the process of flat raft unloading from water on log unloading berth. The fluctuation amplitude of the lifting force of the load-gripper from the ground is higher by 11–33% than from the water, facilitated by the water damping capacity. Based on the laboratory research, the durability of load grippers, patented in the Russian Federation under No. 2476366 and No. 2526767, was experimentally tested. The hypothesis of theoretical calculations of the special load gripper based on the equitability of gross load distribution on the gripper applicable to general purpose lifting apparatus for four choker grapples was experimentally confirmed. The certainty assumption amounted to 97.6%.

Abstract:
This paper presents the optimization of gripping points of an end effector of three fingers, and this is done by ensuring that the force exerted on the object is minimum. It begins with the design of the gripper has two degrees of freedom (DOF) for each finger. Is performed a brief mathematical description of the kinematics involved in the gripper and with this is determined the work area. With the workspace is determines the points with contact with the object geometry are obtained and these are gripping the possible points of the object. To select which of these points is the best to grab the object, we proceed to evaluate the force exerted on the object by means of the mathematic denominated of Screw. This force should be minimal, avoiding sliding and in turn damage the object. As the contact points are numerous and the evaluating would take quite some time in an algorithm combinational by this reason the optimization algorithm Non-dominated Sorting Genetic Algorithm (NSGA) is implemented.

Abstract:
Many scholars have assumed that stanzas 8 and 9 in Hávamál, the so-called sæluvísur, carry significant information about the poem’s ethical message. The history of their interpretation has, however, not so far been afforded due attention. On the surface the sæluvísur may appear quite easy to understand; nevertheless, it has often been pointed out that conventional interpretations are riddled with paradox. In this article I take a few illustrative examples from this history and contest a few unconventional interpretations, especially those of Ivar Lindquist and Guðmundur Finnbogason. I also put forward a new interpretation. This interpretation relies on a system of concepts – especially the distinction beween action and state, and between agent and patient – which puts the logical form of the two stanzas in a new light. According to this revised interpretation, stanza 8 tells us that being sæll (happy) requires praise from others, even if the praise is duplicitous. Basically, we should only try to change what others say about us, not what they really believe, because the latter is too difficult. Stanza 9, on the other hand, tells us that to be sæll one must be able to trust one’s own judgement, because the advice given by others can be evil or dangerous. Finally, I argue that this interpretation should make us question the common idea that the ethical message in Hávamál is akin to virtue ethics. More likely, the poem affirms ethical egoism and tries to identify ways to experience pleasure or enjoyment in an unfair world. The meaning of the word sæla or sæll, in and of itself, does not provide a reason to read anything else into the original text.

Abstract:
Résumé RÉSUMÉ: L’ambition de l’article est de proposer des éléments d’appréciation sur l’avenir du service public postal après l’adoption par l’Europe des Quinze d’une directive. Le secteur postal a beaucoup changé depuis quinze ans. Le texte commence par une grille de lecture économique des éléments structurants de l’activité postale. Puis, il présente un panorama institutionnel des entreprises et de la réglementation en Europe. Ensuite, il revient sur la directive postale, ses principes et ses limites. Le débat européen des années à venir va de nouveau porter sur le développement d’un processus harmonisé de libéralisation. L’article constate l’insuffisance d’études approfondies sur les conséquences qui pourraient en résulter; en particulier, les délais retenus risquent d’empêcher la prise en compte des leçons à retirer des libéralisations en cours.

Forestry Engineering Journal 8, no. 1 (March 19, 2018): 198–207. http://dx.doi.org/10.12737/article_5ab0dfc77edc04.85487053.
Abstract:
To date, the improvement of forest machines is aimed at increasing productivity using modern information sys-tems. The most complex operation in logging, which requires the experience and skill of the operator, is the manipulator control when gripper-cutting device is pointed to a tree. At "hard" capture of the tree as a result of inaccurate pointing of the manipulator, the sawed tree growing around the undergrowth is damaged, expensive equipment is damaged, there is a risk of tree falling in the undetermined direction, saw mechanism is destroyed. Also the time for pointing the manipulator and capture the tree increases, which significantly reduces the productivity of work. With constant concentration on a complex operation, the operator quickly becomes fatigued, which reduces his/her efficiency and attention. Not precise guidance of the manipulator and "hard" capture of the tree occurs quite often and can happen even with an experienced operator. The operations are performed by one algorithm, which means that they can be automated. In order to eliminate the above-mentioned shortcomings, a system of automatic guidance of gripper-cutting device on a tree and its gripping is proposed. It consists, apart from both technological equipment of the machine itself, a computer with a logging machine control system, two distance sensors, and touch sensor. The distance sensors are installed on the pick-up device and determine the location of the tree. The information from the sensors is fed to the computer of the forest machine, which controls the operating mechanisms of the manipulator of the forest machine. Controlled by the machine control system, actuators of hydromanipulator guide the gripper-cutting device onto the tree. The touch sensor is mounted on the body of the gripping device. When you touch the tree with the sensor, the tree is captured. With such an implementation, the accuracy and speed of guiding the cutting device onto the tree is increased, which leads to a reduction in operator fatigue, increased productivity of the forest machine, reduction of damage to trees and gripping device due to the partial automation of the process of guiding the cutting device on the tree and its capture

Abstract:
Purpose – The purpose of this paper is to explore the quite extraordinary way the phenomena of mobile communication has gripped our society and the opportunities this provides for healthcare. Design/methodology/approach – It describes the ticking public health time bomb surrounding long term conditions and dementia and the need to radically overhaul how community services are delivered. It dissects the opportunities and challenges of providing a mobile health and social care service in the community and explores what a mobile moment means for these professionals. Findings – It stresses that the answer is NOT to simply provide an organisation’s IT back-office environment in the field and describes the concept of a dedicated organisation app platform tailored to meet this need. Originality/value – The paper concludes by reviewing recent evidence about the benefits and opportunities for health and social care organisations to embrace mobile working.

Rorty, Amelie. "Questioning Moral Theories." Philosophy 85, no. 1 (January 2010): 29–46. http://dx.doi.org/10.1017/s0031819109990465.
Abstract:
Not a day passes but we find ourselves indignant about something or other. When is our indignation justified, and when does it count as moral indignation rather than a legitimate but non-moral gripe? You might think that we should turn to moral theories – to the varieties of utilitarian, Kantian, virtue theories, etc – to answer this question. I shall try to convince you that this is a mistake, that moral theory – as it is ordinarily presently conceived and studied – does not have a specific subject matter, a specific aim, scope or boundaries. You might think that the difference between echt moral indignation and other forms of disapproval is their relative strength or the importance of their target; but moral indignation can be quite faint, directed to a relatively minor transgression and a strongly felt gripe may be directed to a serious but presumptively non-moral infraction. I shall try to persuade you that morality does not constitute an important and distinctive domain with a distinctive set of over-riding norms or a privileged mode of reasoning: morality is everywhere or nowhere in particular. Radical as this claim may sound, I am not a complete Luddite about the matter. Traditional moral theories nevertheless have important functions. But rather than being competing ‘winner takes all’ explanatory and normative theories, OldSpeak moral systems function heuristically. They offer a heterogeneous set of reminders, questions, advice, ideals, warnings, considerations for deliberation. While we try to integrate and systematize them, there is no single overarching organizational plan.

"The State of Animal-Assisted Interventions: COVID-19 Safety Protocols and Ethical Considerations." Journal of Applied Animal Ethics Research 3, no. 1 (May 4, 2021): 103–25. http://dx.doi.org/10.1163/25889567-bja10019.
Abstract:
Abstract Although animal-assisted interventions (AAIs) share specific characteristics, their differences can be quite significant (Lajoie, 2003). Most research on AAIs focuses on the human side (Muñoz Lasa et al., 2011). The autonomy and well-being of the animals involved are seldom studied, as well as the possible values of conflict between humans and animals (Glenk, 2017). The COVID-19 pandemic that gripped the world starting in 2019–2020, greatly affected human-animal interaction projects, such as animal-assisted interventions (Kumar et al., 2020). To control the spread of the SARS-CoV-2 virus, several (inter)national organisations, came up with new safety protocols. We focus on scientific insights and anecdotal observations, as well as the ethical implications of the COVID-19 safety protocols on AAIs in Belgium and Italy. The paper aims to give the reader an insight into the complexity of AAIs and its future relevance for developing protocols to handle the current and maybe future pandemics.

Abstract:
This chapter covers the multidisciplinary literature on the protection of personal information in the online world, which extends back to the origins of social research on computing, and addresses the link between key structures of the Internet and the literatures on privacy and surveillance. Then, it turns to the literature on the role of international, legal, self-regulatory, and technological policy instruments in protecting personal information online. The nature of the Internet is entirely consistent with the metaphor of the ‘surveillant assemblage’. The Internet has become a fundamentally ‘surveillance-ready’ technology, and is becoming deeply integrated into the structures of social life. The rise of Internet-enabled surveillance and information control is significant. The story of privacy and surveillance is episodic and reflective of quite frenzied attempts to come to grips with unprecedented technological transformations in the light of the most recent scandal or controversy.

Abstract:
Involving labour in decision-making has the potential to improve corporate governance, even in adversarial industrial relations systems such as the ones found in Anglo-American economies. This chapter approaches corporate governance as an information problem—how do shareholders and other interested parties to the activities of a company know that management is working in their best long-term interest? If both labour and business are represented in decision-making, the information asymmetries that each faces are significantly alleviated by the presence of the other, which leads to more balanced outcomes. Representatives of business know relatively little about how the company is run, but a lot about how the company is doing in its key product markets. Labour may have only a tenuous grip on competitive strategy, but it is quite cognisant of how the company is run internally. A board system where representation is shared imposes transparency.

Abstract:
Homer Grice (1/25/1910-6/28/1994) of Kilmichael, MS, was an accomplished musician on fiddle and guitar, and a fine singer. Beginning around age ten, he learned old-time fiddle by ear from his father, including the use of several fiddle tunings. By age twelve he was playing for dances. During the Depression, he played “with a band of young boys around Meridian nightspots.” He was quite active in the 20s and 30s. In an interview with H. T. Holmes in 1973, he recounted that he had been asked to prepare for a commercial 78-rpm recording, most likely in Memphis in 1930. There was alast-minute change and he and his band did not go. Other than Grice on fiddle, the unnamed band consisted of Leroy Ellis on tenor banjo and Wilson Bingham on guitar. Some of Grice's musical associates were Grover O'Briant, Clayton Tyler, Leroy Ellis, Pete Herring and Lonnie Ellis.

Abstract:
Abstract In Robert Coover’s The Origin of the Brunists (1971) Justin Miller, editor of the local newspaper, reflects on the fact that he “had read Revelations at the age of thirteen and never quite got over it.” That happens to a lot of people who read the Book of Revelation - even so-called scholars - and it is from a scholarly point of view (specifically that of a literary and social historian of early Christianity) that the following chapters have been written. A book like Revelation can grip people in different ways, and it is not easy to explain just how the scholarly “grip” differs from, for example, Coover’s Brunists who use the Book of Revelation to illumine an unfinished note of a preacher-miner killed in a mining explosion. Nor is the scholar likely to be gripped by the book as a window into the future of Middle Eastern affairs, with the number of the beast, 666, enigmatically identifying the Soviet Union or Iran. I could say that the scholar is systematic in his or her approach to the Book of Revelation. But the Brunists and other millenarians, as they decode the book, are probably just as systematic as a social or intellectual historian of early Christianity, though in a different way.

Abstract:
Grover O’Briant (11/16/1912–05/07/1995) played fiddle, guitar, banjo, harmonica, piano, and mandolin, and sang very well. Although he never recorded commercially, family recordings show that he was quite accomplished on guitar and fiddle. He acquired a reel-to-reel recorder in the 1960s and his son Jerry kept the recordings. O’Briant remembered attending the Kosciusko fiddle contest in 1920, as a child of nine or ten. He somewhat unsuccessfully tried to revive it in the 1970s and then succeeded in getting it going again in 1984. He emceed and played in the contest. The Grand Champion Trophy for the Natchez Trace Festival was named for him. Homer Grice was a friend and lived nearby. From the 1940s through the 1970s Grover and Homer visited and played often. Grice also competed in Kosciusko contests and was quite intent on winning.

Abstract:
This concluding chapter briefly discusses why William James' positions, if understood as the book has interpreted them, remain valid reformulations of a long-standing and quite honorable view of what philosophical thinking is truly about: reformulations which signpost some escape routes out of the impasse in which the philosophical profession, and the business of philosophical education, find themselves mired at present. The chapter also explains how often Western philosophy has found itself compelled by the developments of its history to take the turn James that proposes, and proclaim the revenge of that forgotten truth: that the pursuit of wisdom inexorably grips the whole human being, not merely brain and mind, but heart, emotions, imagination, and sensibility as well.

Abstract:
The distance education models are being improved and implemented gradually due to the known effect of technology in daily life. One of the developed models is the eight dimensional e-learning framework to maintain opportunity equality with the aspect of every time and everywhere education. Many developing and developed countries pay attention to this model. It is considered quite successful since it emphasizes pedagogical dimensions, while taking into account all aspects of education in an integrated manner. From this point of view, the new education models will be mentioned at first, then the applications in Turkey will be emphasized to grip the progress about e-learning in this chapter. Thus, the reflections of the local dynamics applied to education while meeting global requirements can be seen clearly.

Abstract:
Abstract Chapter 5 turns to the transformed political landscape of the ‘Mercian Supremacy’ of the later eighth and earlier ninth centuries, exploring the ways in which Mercian kings, queens, and abbesses used new kinds of papal privileges to help tighten their grip on familial (monastic) properties, and secure their inheritance plans. It argues that it was in these decades that papal privileges may well have been utilised more effectively in England than at any other time; moreover, the kinds of privileges and strategies pursued by the Mercian royals were quite unique, sharply differing from what we see in the contemporary Carolingian empire, or in other periods. It also addresses the problem of why the record of these events appears to have become so distorted in later centuries.

Abstract:
In this paper I propose to examine, quite generally, some foundational aspects of the Gricean programme in conversation pragmatics, broadly conceived as the theory of converser meaning. I focus primarily on the controversial issue of the programme’s motivation, selecting the theory of meaning as the route of access and, relying on an interpretation by Bennett, I .briefly consider the status os analyticity and the ontological commitment to propositions, taking into account Grice’s early defence of analyticity and the later pragmatist bent displayed in his ‘Reply to Richards’ (1). I afterwards tum to some issues of the programme’s point of demystifying meaning through the intentionalist strategy, in the light of Bennett’s evaluation of the meaning-as-intending slogan as a commonplace, both philosophical (a) and folksy (b) (2), and bring attention to the alleged priority of converser meaning over expression meaning (a), briefly sketching some possible way out (in radically pramatic terms) to what Grice has referred to as a pending minor problem in the programme, resulting fron its división into two different stages of analysis. To that end, after reviewing the successive proposals of Grice, I present a paradigm case of a conversational working-out pattem that purports to illustrate the inferential basis of the programme, with reference to the recovery of converser meaning through the recognition of a flout to a conversational category (b) (3). Finally, against an interpretation of the programme as a mere exercise in conceptual analysis I suggest that it offers a reconstructing model of conversational reasoning which could serve as an adequate ground for further researc into an integrated theory of conversation (4).

Abstract:
This chapter explores the still-evolving business and revenue models and geolocation data capture efforts of two commercial businesses now central to the contemporary settlement of locative media: Foursquare and Facebook. In Foursquare’s case, it underwent a quite dramatic series of transformations, evolving from a check-in based mobile social networking service, to a search and recommendation service, and now also serving as a firm offering location intelligence related enterprise services. In Facebook’s case, it set about further strengthening its grip on social media data markets by adding geolocation functionalities and geodata capture capabilities to its social networking operations. These two case studies provide a rich composite picture of the business ecologies of locational information. The aim in selecting these cases is to develop a clearer understanding of how both firms accrue location data and how they extract location value—that is, how this information is shared, harvested, valued, reused, and commodified.

Abstract:
Abstract Petty gripes aside, we live in a forgiving world, where the margin of error is usually quite generous. I have always suspected that even in the highest reaches of power, decision making is a pretty sloppy process. Once in a while, however, situations arise in the life of a human being, and in a society, which allow no margin of error. These critical situations tax the decision maker’s executive abilities to their utmost. At the age of 62, I can think of only one such situation in my life. For me, a student of executive functions, the experience had the dual significance of a personal drama and a practical study in the workings of the frontal lobes—my own. On an early spring afternoon, my mentor, Alexandr Romanovich Luria, and I were immersed in a conversation that we had had a dozen times before. We were strolling away from Luria’s Moscow apartment, up Frunze Street and on toward the Old Arbat.1 We proceeded cautiously, because Luria had broken his leg and had developed a limp, slowing his usually brisk walking pace. Moscow was thawing after a frigid winter, and the plaza was getting crowded. But Luria was so imposingly professorial in his heavy, almost floor-length, navy cashmere coat with astrakhan collar and matching hat that the crowd gave way.

Abstract:
Last decade has seen a spurt in autonomous technologies in military and civilian sectors. The search for oil and gas is moving into ever deeper waters, and the need for coastal surveillance and climatic monitoring, makes underwater autonomous assistance quite obvious for a developing nation like India with thousands of kilometres of coastline. Using such platforms in these endeavours provides an efficient way to keep human life out of harm’s way in hostile environments. The prototype developed has its navigation based on an internal IMU (Inertial Mass Unit) and the software is extensible to support DVL (Doppler Velocity Logger) based navigation. Near range object detection and path planning is achieved via Image Processing and using two surge and one heave thrusters the bot can operate in three degrees of freedom. The modular structure allows for the addition of extra sensors like pressure, temperature and manipulators like grippers and torpedoes. It has a Intel Atom processor, which runs the control algorithms for motion and required task completion. Paper published with permission.

Abstract:
Criminal law has to keep pace with the constant advancement of technology and the emergence of the digital revolution to the fore: it has to come to grips with emerging - and still unregulated - legal problems, one of which is a new means of transport: the electric scooter. What is the problem? The electric scooter is operated by one person, who has no equipment, no driver's license, and the electric scooter does not require insurance - for now. The use of electric scooters has become very widespread in Hungary in recent years, especially in the capital and its surroundings. However, for the users of this means of transport, there is also the problem that the valid traffic regulations have not specifically applied to this vehicle so far, so scooter drivers could use bike paths, roadways, and even sidewalks. In addition, zero tolerance for alcohol use was not applied to them, which caused quite a few accidents. In Hungary, this issue is also important for compensation for damages from such traffic accidents. The solution is in the hands of the Hungarian legislator, the draft is in the plan, but it has not yet been drawn up, it has not been adopted and it is not yet in force.

Abstract:
Abstract Polysilicon, which is vapor deposited, is by nature only a few microns thick. In typical MEMS applications, the structural features may also be only a few microns wide. Establishing the elastic and strength properties using specimens that are similar in size is quite a challenge. This paper describes a tensile test system that grips a large ‘paddle’ on the end of a tensile specimen with electrostatic force; this enables the testing of polysilicon specimens that have cross-sections as small as 1.5 × 2 microns. Polysilicon is a linear, brittle material and it is not difficult to measure its tensile strength, which is measured here to be on the order of 1.3 GPa. It is considerably more difficult to measure Young’s modulus, and two approaches are used here. In the first, strain is extracted from the force-displacement plot of the tensile test. The second uses two gold lines for laser interferometry to measure strain directly on the tensile specimen. Both approaches yield similar results, but the measured values are lower than the 169 GPa measured earlier on wider polysilicon specimens. Specimens 3.5 microns thick had a modulus of 142 ± 25 GPa, and those 1.5 microns thick showed 136 ± 14 Gpa. The techniques and procedures along with preliminary results are presented here.

Abstract:
Even the mere mention of "transplantation of human body parts" is reason enough to deal with this topic for who knows how many times. Quite simply, we need to discuss the topics discussed from time to time !? Let's get down to explaining some of the "hot" life issues that arise in connection with them. To, perhaps, determine ourselves in a different way according to the existing solutions ... to understand what a strong dynamic has gripped the world we live in, colored our attitudes with a different color, influenced our thoughts about life, its values, altruism, selflessness, charities. the desire to give up something special without thinking that we will get something in return. Transplantation of human organs and tissues for therapeutic purposes has been practiced since the middle of the last century. She started (of course, in a very primitive way) even in ancient India (even today one method of transplantation is called the "Indian method"), over the 16th century (1551). when the first free transplantation of a part of the nose was performed in Italy, in order to develop it into an irreplaceable medical procedure in order to save and prolong human life. Thousands of pages of professional literature, notes, polemical discussions, atypical medical articles, notes on the margins of read journals or books from philosophy, sociology, criminal literature ... about events of this kind, the representatives of the church also took their position. Understanding our view on this complex and very complicated issue requires that more attention be paid to certain solutions on the international scene, especially where there are certain permeations (some agreement but also differences). It's always good to hear a second opinion, because it puts you to think. That is why, in the considerations that follow, we have tried (somewhat more broadly) to answer some of the many and varied questions in which these touch, but often diverge, both from the point of view of the right regulations and from the point of view of medical and judicial practice. times from the perspective of some EU member states (Germany, Poland, presenting the position of the Catholic Church) on the one hand, and in the perspective of other moral, spiritual, cultural and other values - India and Iraq, on the other.
