As a result of the findings of scientists working on the biosynthesis and metabolism of steroids in the plant and animal kingdoms over the past five decades, it has become apparent that those compounds that naturally occur in animals can also be found as natural constituents of plants and vice versa, i.e., they have essentially the same fate in the majority of living organisms. This review summarizes the current state of knowledge on the occurrence of animal steroid hormones in the plant kingdom, particularly focusing on progesterone, testosterone, androstadienedione (boldione), androstenedione, and estrogens.

Full textAbstract:
In the 1970s, many countries were in financial crisis as a result of the burden of maintaining the welfare state and repeated oil shocks. To solve these kinds of economic and financial problems, many countires have attempted to reform the public sector by implementing an accrual basis accounting system. But ehre are significant differences among countries in the foundation and evolution of the institution because of differences in institutional structure. In the case of the United Kingdom, institutional structure had been operated seems like there were not veto points. Once a decision had been made in the executive arena, Parliament was unlikely to change it, as the executive government rest on stable parliamentary majorities. However, the institutional structure of the United States works differently from that of the United Kingdom. A lot of decisions made by executive branch could be vetoed by Congress, or vice versa, because they don not share the same resources of power.

Blaine, Marlin E. "Lust, Spirit, and the Vice List in Shakespeare's Sonnet 129 and Galatians 5." Ben Jonson Journal 27, no. 2 (November 2020): 234–46. http://dx.doi.org/10.3366/bjj.2020.0286.
Full textAbstract:
Sonnet 129 ironically reinscribes Galatians 5:16–26, reconfiguring the relationship between spirit, lust, and will articulated in Paul's epistle. Paul counsels his audience not to “fulfil the lustes of the flesh,” which he enumerates in a format known to biblical scholars as a vice-list. If the lusts of the flesh dictate behaviors, the sinner, says Paul, lacks self-control: “ye can not do the same things that ye wolde.” Paul counters those lusts with “the spirit,” which signifies a moral freedom resulting from the regenerating effects of divine grace and produces in the “new man” a set of behaviors which Paul particularizes in the counterpart of the vice-list, a virtue list. The lusts of the flesh, says Paul, bar one from kingdom of God, while the actions of the spirit lead to salvation. In Sonnet 129, rhetorical features such as the opposition between lust and spirit, an extensive “vice list,” and a disquisition on the loss of self-control brought on by passion link the sonnet to Paul's epistle. Shakespeare handles the Pauline material with brutal irony, reducing spirit from a sign of God's regenerating influence to a synonym for semen and proceeding to a radically pessimistic conclusion on the inability of the individual “shun the heaven” of sexual pleasure “that leads men to [the] hell” of lust.

This study discusses the interactions between Majapahit and other kingdoms from a contemporary time in Nusantara, Southeast Asia, India, and China and vice versa. The aim is to formulate the interaction between Majapahit and contemporary kingdoms and vice versa based on existing data. This is an ancient historical study that was conducted in three stages, namely: collecting data contained in written sources such as inscriptions, literary works, and Chinese Chronicles, and archaeological data. The second stage was a data analysis by linking data from written sources with other data, to look for elements that support each other, and always refer to the phenomenon of the study framework. The third stage included an interpretation to gain conclusions. According to the data analysis by examining Majapahit's contemporary regions and kingdoms, it turned out that the kingdom applied the basic concept of Tri Angga which refers to the macrocosm concept of Tri Loka. Majapahit's relationship with India is not as dynamic as that of China, instead, there is a view that India is religiously no longer a reference to Hinduism and Buddhism.

Abstract Gustav Hugo and the Göttingen student riots 1809/10. This paper deals with legal transplants during the Napoleonic era in Germany. Among the many changes introduced in the French ‘model kingdom’ of Westphalia, founded in 1806, were the introduction of the Code Napoléon and a complete reorganization of the judiciary. One of the institutions severely affected by these developments was the venerable University of Göttingen with its ancient privileges and royal prerogatives. The famous Romanist und founder of the Historical School, Gustav Hugo, was at its helm during the most turbulent phase of this reorganization. His achievements as vice rector are the subject of the second part of the paper.

In 1623, the property of Ladislaus Seydlitz von Schönfeld was confiscated and immediately purchased by Polyxena of Lobkowicz. It also included the Encovany estate with Seydlitz’s library, the core of which was the book collection of the previous two lords at Encovany, the Vice--Chancellor of the Kingdom of Bohemia Oswald Schönfeld von Schönfeld (1524–1589) and his son Rudolf (1565–1602). Provenance research into the Library of the Monastery of the Order of Friars Minor Capuchin in Roudnice nad Labem and the Roudnice Lobkowicz Library has identified fragments of the earliest Encovany library. The article provides the basic information not only on fragments of this Renaissance castle library but also on the fates of its first owners.

Full textAbstract:
La presente tesi ha come oggetto privilegiato di studio la famiglia del Riccio, mercanti fiorentini a Roma e a Napoli, tra la metà del Cinquecento e i primi anni del Seicento. La ricchezza dell’Archivio Naldini del Riccio di Firenze ne ha permesso uno studio sistematico ed approfondito, basato, principalmente, su materiale documentario inedito.
Le vicende dei del Riccio Baldi sono prese in esame dalla fine del Quattrocento, quando alcuni di loro si trasferirono a Firenze da Tavarnelle, fino alla metà del Seicento, quando, cioè, potrà dirsi compiuta la loro trasformazione da mercanti in cortigiani. L’interruzione della narrazione si spiegherà con il radicamento in città dei membri della famiglia, non con la sua estinzione, avvenuta nel 1772.
Dopo un capitolo introduttivo, sarà illustrata la personalità di Luigi del Riccio, cruciale per la costruzione dell’identità dell’intero “clan”. Impiegato presso il banco romano degli Strozzi, agente del duca Cosimo nel 1540, egli fu anche e soprattutto amico di Michelangelo, che gli disegnò la sepoltura di suo nipote, “Cecchino” Bracci. Resosi conto dell’uso identitario e del prestigio dell’amicizia con l’artista e della fiera rivendicazione di repubblicanesimo che l’esposizione di una copia michelangiolesca rappresentava, egli commissionò a Nanni di Baccio Bigio una copia della Pietà vaticana per la cappella di famiglia in Santo Spirito. Alla morte di Luigi, suo fratello Antonio, completò la cappella fiorentina, tentando, al contempo, di vendere alcune colonne di porfido a Cosimo I, così da assicurarsene il favore. In questi anni, avvenne il passaggio da una posizione di ambiguità nei confronti del neonato ducato ad una sua più convinta e –soprattutto- necessaria accettazione.
Emulando la famiglia Olivieri, con la quale erano imparentati, alcuni del Riccio, cugini di Luigi, erano presenti anche a Napoli nel secondo Cinquecento. Tra il sesto e il settimo decennio del secolo, infatti, la comunità fiorentina locale fondò una nuova chiesa “nazionale” anche grazie al contributo dei fratelli Guglielmo e Pierantonio di Giulio, che dotarono una propria cappella e acquisirono poi alcune case. La commissione al pittore senese Marco Pino per la pala d’altare della loro cappella napoletana mostrava chiaramente l’uso che s’intendeva fare dell’amicizia con Michelangelo. Fu probabilmente il rientro a Firenze di Guglielmo a riattivare il desiderio di manifestare la trascorsa amicizia. Dal 1568 in poi, le attenzioni di “visibilità” di Guglielmo si spostarono, quindi, su di una cappella fiorentina che sarebbe stata decorata nel 1579 con una copia del Cristo della Minerva, realizzata da Taddeo Landini.
Il passaggio dal ‘500 al ‘600 segnò anche, almeno per alcuni del Riccio, quello da mercanti a patrizi. Se già Guglielmo aveva acquistato, nel 1575, un piccolo feudo nel vice-regno, solo il figlio Francesco sviluppò le nuove prerogative nobiliari, attraverso commissioni e acquisti artistici mirati. Suo cugino Luigi, d’altra parte, fu l’ultimo a risiedere con una certa continuità a Napoli. Qui, nel 1596, commissionò una lastra terragna a Giovanni Antonio Dosio, mentre, rientrato a Firenze, trasferì la casa familiare in un palazzo in via Tornabuoni.
Alcuni dei suoi figli, Francesco Maria e Giulio, risiedettero poi a Roma e il primogenito fu anche impiegato presso la famiglia Barberini, un’esperienza determinante per le ultime commissioni prese in esame. In generale, però, già dal rientro a Firenze di Luigi, commissioni e acquisti artistici si erano fatti meno originali e ne era scaturita una certa omologazione al gusto del patriziato fiorentino.
Nell’epilogo, si tratteggerà la storia della famiglia nella sua fase finale. Le due generazioni di del Riccio vissute tra Sei e Settecento riuscirono a raggiungere importanti riconoscimenti da parte dei Granduchi, tuttavia, quando nel 1772 morì Leonardo Maria, ultimo del suo ramo, la sua eredità passò ai Naldini, figli di sua sorella Caterina.
Nell’Appendice A, infine, alcune tracce documentarie assicureranno, almeno dal tardo Seicento, la permanenza nella collezione del Riccio della “piccola Madonna Cowper” di Raffaello, oggi alla National Gallery of Art di Washington D.C.

Full textAbstract:
This chapter analyses the position of ‘administrative law’ vis-à-vis ‘constitutional law’, and vice versa, from a comparative and historical perspective. Its primary aim is to get an exact view of how far the national legal systems in Europe converge, or diverge, with respect to the relationship between constitutional and administrative law. However, pleading the thesis of an Ius commune Europaeum (i.e., the existence of a common legal view in Europe) requires an in-depth analysis of all European countries, without excluding individual cases that do not fit into the mainstream (particularly the United Kingdom and Sweden). Only then can any thesis of unity amongst diversity be truly persuasive. In addition, the secondary aim of this chapter's investigation is to get a better theoretical understanding of administrative law in general.

Full textAbstract:
AbstractTimor-Leste’s long history of colonisation and occupation has posed significant welfare challenges for the small, half-island nation nestled between Asia and the Pacific. Since independence in 2002, a budding pattern of migration has emerged, with increasing numbers of Timorese living and working in the United Kingdom. This chapter seeks to understand how the welfare concerns of these migrants shape their decisions about geographical mobility and vice versa. Analysing semi-structured interviews and overt participant observation conducted in England in 2017 and drawing on an extended version of the welfare resource environment framework, it explores the role of market, state and family-based welfare provisions in this migration trend. It finds that Timorese migrants in England utilise migration – and the market and state-based welfare provisions it brings – in service of their own, family-based social protection system. Migration between welfare contexts allows increased access to new and varied sources of welfare, valued for how they support a family-based framework founded on interdependence, relationships with others and responsibility. By querying the mobility of Timorese migrants in England in light of their welfare concerns, this chapter elucidates the culturally embedded ways in which migrants and their families piece together unique protection packages.

Full textAbstract:
For nearly two centuries, colonial historiography had attributed the origins of state formation in the country to Lower Myanmar, so that the process of “civilization” was alleged to have moved south to north. That process was thought to have reached its zenith in the Kingdom of Pegu during the last half of the first millennium BC, whose roots were alleged to have gone back to the mythical Ramannadesa and Buddhist Asokan India. Recent research makes clear, however, that the process of state formation in Myanmar was exactly the opposite and much later. Scientific evidence reveals not only that the earliest dates regarding “the state” lay in Upper, not Lower Myanmar, while the best archaeological and epigraphic evidence suggests it “moved” north to south rather than vice versa. The evidence also shows that during much of that time, Lower Myanmar was the “frontier” of the country and not its center, a “backwater,” largely inhospitable, consisting of marshes and swamps until developed during the second half of the millennium AD by human and material resources from Upper Myanmar, South India, Central Mainland and parts of maritime Southeast Asia. This chapter describes the legendary and historical origins of the Kingdom of Pegu, an old governorship on that “frontier” under the Kingdom of Pagan that was finally established as the center of a new kingdom only by the middle of the fourteenth century. Pegu’s documented origins as a polity, therefore, do not go back to the time of the Buddha as conventional hagiography would have it in the legend that was Lower Myanmar.

Full textAbstract:
Chapter 5 analyzes the bodies of Israel’s first two kings, Saul and David. In the broader landscape of Samuel-Kings, precious few bodies take center stage, truly positioning Saul head and shoulders above the crowd and David as the ideal monarchic body over the short-lived united kingdom. Saul and David participate in a rather complex “body drama” in 1 Samuel that scholars have not yet analyzed with enough depth in its bodily dimensions, especially given the pervasiveness of body themes both explicitly and subtly interwoven throughout the narratives. In this chapter, we continue to see individual bodies reflected back into the corporate body, and vice versa, though for David and Saul the process seems more ambiguous, complicated by the rollercoaster of affairs that characterize the national body through the reigns of both men: moments of strength and unity, undermined, reconciled, undermined again, valorous, cowardly, bold, and hidden.

Scholarship and bursary programmes were established for Chilean academics and students, which had many direct and indirect benefits for Chilean and later other refugees coming to the United Kingdom. The relationship that had begun between WUS and SPSL through the links with Esther Simpson and Lord Ashby, then Chairman of SPSL and also Vice-President of WUS, was strengthened through the collaborative work undertaken by the two organizations. Mutual trust and community of purpose led in due course to a compact between the SPSL and WUS, which assured the continuation of the SPSL as an independent body.

Full textAbstract:
Children present to the health services with a variety of health needs. The Department of Health (DH) National Service Framework (2004) in the United Kingdom (UK) identifies that children with health needs should receive good quality care. Furthermore this care needs to be provided by staff that have adequate preparation to work with children and families (DH, 2004). In order to provide such care, the nursing student needs to develop and acquire the necessary knowledge and skills to gain an understanding and appreciation of the common needs of both family and child on hospitalization. This chapter aims to equip you with the knowledge and background skills to enable you to provide this quality care. After reading this chapter you should be able to: ● Identify and outline the essential skills that are required during the child’s admission to hospital. ● Understand the essential clinical observations that are performed upon the child’s admission to hospital. ● Develop a further understanding of the basic elements of admission and discharge planning, including the nursing process and care planning. ● Understand the importance of good record keeping during care. ● Identify the means of transmission of infection and the specific precautions and practices that the nursing student can utilize to prevent such transmission. ● Understand the principles of distraction therapy. ● Understand the situations in which restraint may be required. ● Comprehend the principles of last offices and the nurse’s role in providing bereavement care. This chapter assists with your understanding of your nursing care by helping you to understand the skills that can be used during the child’s admission to hospital. These skills develop with experience and education and enable you to develop a caring, family centred approach that makes the transition from home to hospital and vice versa a smooth one for both family and child. Crucially, the assessment process, in the initial phase, helps to set the scene in your relationship with both child and family and communication skills are vital. At the same time essential physical observations of the child are carried out and documented to support your overall assessment and these will be outlined in this chapter.

Full textAbstract:
Writing in the early eighth century, Bede described how three separate peoples— the Angles, Saxons, and Jutes—had settled in Britain some three hundred years earlier, and ever since the genesis of ‘Anglo-Saxon’ scholarship in the nineteenth century archaeologists have sought to identify discrete areas of Anglian, Saxon, and Jutish settlement (e.g. Leeds 1912; 1936; 1945; Fox 1923, 284–95). The identification of these peoples was based upon different artefact styles and burial rites, with most attention being paid to brooches. The degree of variation in the composition of brooch assemblages across eastern England is shown in Table 9.1. Cruciform brooches with cast side knobs, for example, were thought to have been ‘Anglian’, and saucer brooches ‘Saxon’ (although even in the early twentieth century Leeds (1912) had started to doubt the attribution of applied brooches to the West Saxons). In recent years, however, this traditional ‘culturehistorical’ approach towards interpreting the archaeological record has been questioned, as it is now recognized that, rather than being imported from mainland Europe during the early to mid fifth century, regional differences in artefact assemblages emerged over the course of the late fifth to late sixth centuries (e.g. Hines 1984; 1999; Hilund Nielsen 1995; Lucy 2000; Owen- Crocker 2004; 2011; Penn and Brugmann 2007; Walton Rogers 2007; Brugmann 2011; Dickinson 2011; Hills 2011). In early to mid fifth-century England, in contrast, it now appears that Germanic material culture was in fact relatively homogeneous, with objects typical of ‘Saxon’ areas on the continent being found in so-called ‘Anglian’ areas of England, and vice versa. The earliest material from East Anglia, for example—equal-arm, supporting-arm, and early cruciform brooches—are most closely paralleled in the Lower Elbe region of Saxony, with the distinctive ‘Anglian’ identity of EastAnglia onlyemerging through later contact with southern Scandinavia (Hines 1984; Carver 1989, 147, 152; Hills and Lucy 2013, 38–9). Indeed, many elements of the classic suite of early Anglo-Saxon material culture actually developed within Britain as opposed to having been created on the continent (Hills 2003, 104–7; Owen-Crocker 2004, 13), with new identities beingmade in Britain rather than being imported frommainland Europe (Hills 2011, 10).

Full textAbstract:
Under the management of the Nuclear Decommissioning Authority (NDA) the government of the United Kingdom has launched an ambitious program to remediate the nation’s nuclear waste legacy. Over a twenty-five year period NDA plans to decommission several first generation nuclear power plants and other radioactive facilities. The use innovative, safe “fit for purpose” technologies will be a major part of this complex program. This paper will present a case study of a recently completed project undertaken in support of the nuclear decommissioning activities at the Sellafield site in the United Kingdom. The focus is on an innovative application of new packaging technology developed for the safe transportation of radioactively contaminated lead objects. Several companies collaborated on the project and contributed to its safe and successful conclusion. These companies include British Nuclear Group, Gravatom Engineering, W. F.
