This article marries the study of serious leisure pursuits with library and information science’s (LIS) interest in people’s everyday use, need, seeking, and sharing of information. Using a qualitative approach, the role of information as a phenomenon was examined in relation to the leisure activity of hobbyist collecting. In the process, a model and a typology for these collectors were develop...

Due to the scarcity of water resources, there is a need for an additional source irrigation. Drainage waters can serve as such sources. To use these waters, it necessary develop number measures. The aim study reduce negative consequences by increasing norms preventive It vital fulfilling tasks set: calculation supply rates and irrigation regime when designing drainage As result field studies ac...

Scimitar syndrome or Felsons veno-lobar is a very rare congenital disease characterized by combination of cardiopulmonary abnormalities, including partial right-sided pulmonary venous drainage to the inferior vena cava, cavo-atrial junction, low on right atrium. We report case 53-year-old female patient who presented with recent gradually worsening dyspnea. The diagnosis was suspected chest x-r...

Background: Historically open surgical drainage has been the treatment of choice for pyogenic liver abscess. The records of 54 patients with pyogenic liver abscess were reviewed to determine whether earlier diagnosis with current imaging tests and definitive treatment with antibiotics and aspiration drainage was an effective alternative to surgery. Methods: The clinical features, laborator...

Air flow measurement at the outlets of air terminal devices installed in ventilation systems is very difficult. At anemostats, swirl diffusers, grilles, can swirl, contract, or expand sharply, change its direction, etc., which causes great errors. Therefore, it was necessary to develop a universal measuring device that would make possible measure rate with high accuracy. It should consist an co...

This essay explores the best-selling American author Edith Wharton’s status as a bibliophile and book collector. It draws comparisons between her tastes collector those of some neighbors, especially residing in Berkshires area western Massachusetts around 1900. focuses, particular, on rare, first-edition copy play Esther (1689), by Jean Racine; Wharton owned this so did Choate family. As such, ...

AIM To evaluate histologically the morphology and characteristics of bone chips harvested intraorally by Safescraper, a specially designed cortical bone collector. MATERIAL AND METHODS Bone chips harvested near a bone defect or in other intraoral sites were grafted into a post-extractive socket or applied in procedures for maxillary sinus floor augmentation or guided bone regeneration. Core b...

A statistical hypothesis test determines whether a hypothesis should be rejected based on samples from populations. In particular, randomized controlled experiments (or A/B testing) that compare population means using, e.g., t-tests, have been widely deployed in technology companies to aid in making data-driven decisions. Samples used in these tests are collected from users and may contain sens...

The undersea collecting vehicle is one of the three main parts in deep-sea exploitation system. Coand? effect-based collector picks up manganese nodules by providing an adverse pressure difference over nodule, through jet flowing around a curved wall. In order to overcome drawbacks repeated prototyping and experimenting traditional design procedure collector, theoretical guide should be well pl...
