Intrapersonal competencies form the foundation of one’s development, and they are fundamental qualities of leadership competences. Four types of intelligence are highlighted in the literature of positive psychology: intelligence quotient (IQ), emotional intelligence quotient (EQ), adversity quotient (AQ) and spiritual intelligence quotient (SQ). It is argued that these competences are important...

Throughout this paper, G denotes a simple and simply connected algebraic group over C of rank r and H is a Cartan subgroup, with Lie algebras g = LieG and h = LieH. Let R be the root system of the pair (G,H), W the Weyl group, and Λ ⊆ h the coroot lattice. Fix once and for all a positive Weyl chamber, i.e. a set of simple roots ∆. The geometric invariant theory quotient of g by the adjoint acti...

I . Rates of oxygen consumption and carbon dioxide production were measured in pigs from birth to 3 days of age in an open-circuit system. 2. The mean respiratory quotient (RQ) during the first 6 h following birth was 0.95 in fasted pigs and 0.91 in pigs which were allowed to feed. 3. The RQ fell during the remainder of the first postnatal day to mean values close to 0.85, whether the pigs were...
