The current situation of the Polish language in Carpathian BukovinaThe use and the state of preservation of the Polish language in Carpathian Bukovina is very diverse for a number of reasons. There are villages in which it is not only spoken in the family domain by people invited to take part in this study, but also serves as the basic code of communication in public space: all local residents, including those of origin other than Polish, know it. This is the case in Nyzhni Petrivtsi, Pleşa, Poiana Micului, Stara Krasnoshora, Soloneţu Nou and Terebleche. In turn, the town of Rădăuți and such villages as Bulai, Cacica, Davydivka, Davydivka Zrub, Frumoasa, Gura Humorului, Hlyboka, Păltinoasa, Racovăț, Seret, Sfântu Ilie, Vicşani and Verkhni Petrivtsi have quite a few Polish families; their members, however, speak Polish very rarely, only on exceptional occasions. In some places in the region all that remains is the local memory of Poles who once lived in the area and of Polish speech that could be heard there in the past; this memory, however, seems to be disappearing. We can find traces of their historical presence: houses, cemeteries, churches and so on in Arbore, Banyliv, Budenetsʹ, Dubivtsi, Ispas, Miliieve, Nova Zhadova, Rokytne, Solca, Stara Zhadova, Vashkivtsi and Vytylivka.Places that once had Polish communities and are now dominated by Ukrainian or Romanian speakers include the villages of Banyliv, Boiany, Cheresh, Chudeĭ, Komarivtsi, Krasnoïlʹsʹk, Lashkivka, Lukivtsi, Luzhany, Mihoveni, Nova Krasnoshora, Ridkivtsi, Vășcăuți and Zhadova, and the towns of Câmpulung Moldovenesc and Vyzhnytsia. There are some individual elderly people living there whose first language was Polish. Considering that they function in the Ukrainian- or Romanian-speaking environment, they use it sporadically as all spheres are served by Ukrainian/Romanian or their dialectal variations. The functionality of Polish in such villages and towns as Kitsmanʹ, Korchivtsi, Panka, Sadhora, Storozhynetsʹ, Zastavna and Zelenyĭ Haĭ is very limited indeed: local Poles no longer speak it in the family or the neighbourhood, but only on special occasions, such as encounters with visitors from Poland, which do not occur very often. Współczesna sytuacja polszczyzny na Bukowinie KarpackiejUżywanie języka polskiego na Bukowinie Karpackiej jest bardzo zróżnicowane. Na przyczyny tego stanu składa się wiele czynników. Są rodziny i wsie, w których mowa polska występuje nie tylko w sferze rodzinnej osób zaproszonych do badania, lecz także stanowi podstawowy kod służący do komunikacji w przestrzeni publicznej, który znają wszyscy mieszkańcy, również osoby o niepolskim pochodzeniu (Nowy Sołoniec, Piotrowce Dolne, Plesza, Pojana Mikuli, Stara Huta, Tereblecze). W takich miejscowościach jak: Bulaj, Dawideny-Centrum i Dawideny-Zrąb, Frumosa, Głęboka, Gura Humoru, Kaczyka, Paltynosa, Piotrowce Górne, Radowce, Rakowiec, Seret, Sfiyntu Illie, Wikszany mieszkają dość liczne rodziny polskie, ale w środowisku rodzinnym i sąsiedzkim ich członkowie mówią po polsku bardzo rzadko, używają tego języka w wyjątkowych sytuacjach. W miejscowościach, w których istnieje już tylko pamięć (wydaje się, że w zaniku) obecnych mieszkańców o języku polskim, rozbrzmiewającym niegdyś w przestrzeni lokalnej, i o Polakach, którzy tam żyli, znajdujemy pozostałości kultury materialnej: domy, cmentarze, kościoły itp. (Arbore, Baniłów n/Czeremoszem, Budyniec, Dubowce, Ispas, Milijów, Solka, Nowa Żadowa, Rokitna, Stara Żadowa, Witelówka, Waszkowce w Ukrainie).Miejscowości zdominowane przez przedstawicieli społeczności ukraińskiej lub rumuńskiej to Baniłów n/Seretem, Bojany, Czeresz, Czudej, Kimpulung Mołdawski, Komarowce, Krasnoilsk, Łaszkówka, Łukawiec, Łużany, Mihoweny, Nowa Huta, Rarańcza, Waszkowce w Rumunii, Wyżnica, Żadowa. W otoczeniu ukraińsko- lub rumuńskojęzycznym żyją pojedyncze starsze osoby, których pierwszym językiem był język polski, posługują się one nim jednak sporadycznie, a wszystkie sfery obsługuje język ukraiński/rumuński lub odmiana dialektalna języka ukraińskiego/ rumuńskiego. Funkcjonalność polszczyzny w życiu codziennym Polaków z takich wsi, jak: Kocmań, Korczeszty, Panka, Sadagóra, Storożyniec, Zastawna, Zielony Gaj jest bardzo ograniczona. Nie używają oni już języka polskiego w komunikacji rodzinnej i sąsiedzkiej, po polsku rozmawiają tylko w sytuacjach szczególnych, np. z przybyszami z Polski.

Indoor And Outdoor

Nowadays, the singularity of outdoor space in urban community has been unable to meet the needs of people. The concept of home, the smallest unit of society, is changing with the change of family structure. The huge living community consists of a family of loose relationship or fragmented families, each of which is an island. In the past, it is said that a neighbor that is near is better than a brother far off. However, at present, a close neighbor is like a stranger. The walls of the building have become a barrier for people to communicate. People’s activities should not be restricted by the ”box” of home. Can we open the walls and re-design the outdoor space? Therefore, we begin to think about the connection between people, can we achieve it through space? Can there be more public space between neighborhoods? Can such a public space be used as part of the family space again? In this paper, the outdoor space of urban community is taken as the research object to strive to break the boundaries of traditional indoor and outdoor space. How to optimize the outdoor public space in urban communities to promote residents’ communication is taken as the purpose of research to carry out a new design of this kind of space. The outdoor space outside the traditional wall is combined with the living needs of present people to discuss the possibility shaping of outdoor space in urban community.

Qualitative Data Collection

This study aimed to find out two things, namely (1) the factors that influence the family determine language selection policy; (2) factors that influence society in the use of language in public spaces. This study took samples in several regions including, Magelang, Wonogiri, Yogyakarta, Makassar, and Tanjung Pinang. The type of research used is qualitative. Data collection techniques are carried out by observation and interviews. The collected data is then analyzed using descriptive qualitative techniques. Based on the results of the study, it can be concluded that (1) the choice of language used in the family sphere is influenced by factors, namely the first language of family members, the language used in the neighborhood, the language of education and the media; (2) the language used in public space is basically regulated by the government, however, the use of language still tends to hit rules, especially the language used for advertising.

California Mission

This paper explores how the materiality of the past has been mobilized to simultaneously erase Indigenous presence and create white public space at Spanish mission sites in California. As the site of present-day Santa Clara University, Mission Santa Clara de Asís presents an important case study. The documentary record associated with more than a century of archaeology at the mission reveals its intersections with heritage-making, particularly the maintenance of public memory that privileges and valorizes whiteness. These same records further detail how the university and local residents effectively erased the heritage of the thousands of Ohlone people and members of neighboring Indigenous groups who lived, worked, and died at Mission Santa Clara. Recognizing how archaeology has contributed to the current heritage landscape at Santa Clara and other California mission sites is a necessary first step in the creation of new archaeological and heritage practices that center the experiences and persistence of Native Californian communities.

This paper examines the special characteristics of tourism development on the Adriatic islands, focusing on Hvar Town, the largest town and port on the island of Hvar and its busiest destination. The research was carried out using the method of semi-structured interviews. A total of 30 interviews were conducted with the local residents (mostly employed in the tourism sector) and temporary/seasonal visitors. The intention was to learn about the current state of tourism in the town and look at the possible scenarios for the future development of sustainable tourism, based on its three inter-connected aspects: environmental, economic and socio-cultural. The research also considered the influence of various tourism actors on the development, the possibilities of agritourism, the role and importance of cultural tourism and, finally yet importantly, the impact of the Covid-19 pandemic on the last year's drastically shortened summer season. The results show that mass tourism (and its subset party tourism) have dominated the tourist offer since 2000 onwards, changing the reputation of Hvar as the elite travel destination or the family holiday destination it used to have before.

The dramatic increase in the number of exiles and refugees in the past 100 years has generated a substantial amount of literature written in a second language as well as a heightened sensibility towards the progressive loss of fluency in the mother tongue. Confronted by what modern linguistics has termed ‘first-language attrition’, the writings of numerous exilic translingual authors exhibit a deep sense of trauma which is often expressed through metaphors of illness and death. At the same time, most of these writers make a deliberate effort to preserve what is left from the mother tongue by attempting to increase their exposure to poems, dictionaries or native speakers of the ‘dying’ language. The present paper examines a range of attitudes towards translingualism and first language attrition through the testimonies of several exilic authors and thinkers from different countries (Vladimir Nabokov's Speak, Memory, Hannah Arendt's interviews, Jorge Semprún's Quel beau dimanche! and Autobiografía de Federico Sánchez, and Eva Hoffman's Lost in Translation, among others). Special attention will be paid to the historical frameworks that encourage most of their salvaging operations by infusing the mother tongue with categories of affect and kinship.

Background: Investigation of rare bleeding disorders in Latin-America. Objective: The report of a new case of FX deficiency due to a compound heterozygosis. Methods: Accepted clotting procedures were used. Sequencing of DNA was carried out by means of Applied Biosystems Instruments. Results: A compound heterozygote due to the association of a new mutation (Gla72Asp) with an already known mutation (Gly154Arg) of the FX gene is reported. The proposita is a 38 year old female who had a moderate bleeding tendency (menorrhagia, epistaxis, easy bruising). The proposita has never received substitution therapy but in the occasion of a uterine biopsy. The mother was asymptomatic but was a heterozygote for the new mutation. The father was asymptomatic but had deserted the family and could not be investigated. After this abandonment the mother of the proposita re-married with an asymptomatic man and she gave birth to a son who was asymptomatic but was also heterozygous for the new mutation (Gla72Asp). As a consequence it has to be assumed that the first husband of the mother of the proposita was heterozygous for the known mutation (Gly154Arg). Conclusion: This is the third case of a new mutation in the FX gene reported, during the past few years, in Argentina.

Owain Westmacott Richards was born on 31 December 1901 in Croydon, the second son of Harold Meredith Richards, M.D., and Mary Cecilia Richards ( née Todd). At the time H. M. Richards was Medical Officer of Health for Croydon, a post he held until 1912 when he returned to the town of his birth, Cardiff, as Deputy Chairman of the newly formed Welsh Insurance Commission, the forerunner of the Welsh Board of Health. Owain Richards’s grandfather had a hatter’s business in Cardiff, which had been established by his father, who had migrated to Cardiff from Llanstephan in Carmarthenshire (now Dyfed). This great-grandfather was probably the last Welsh-speaking member of the family; his son discouraged the use of Welsh as ‘unprogressive’ and married a non-Welsh speaking girl from Haverfordwest. Harold Richards, being the youngest son, did not inherit the family business. On leaving school he worked for some years in a shipping firm belonging to a relative. He found this uncongenial and in his late twenties, having decided to become a doctor, he attended classes at the newly founded University College at Cardiff. Passing the Intermediate Examination he entered University College London, qualifying in 1891, taking his M.D. and gaining gold medals in 1892 and 1893. He was elected a Fellow of University College London in 1898. As medical practices had, at that time, either to be purchased or inherited, Harold Richards took a salaried post as Medical Officer of Health for Chesterfield and Dronfield (Derbyshire), soon moving to Croydon. After his work at Cardiff, he transferred, in 1920, to the Ministry of Health in London, responsible for the medical and hospital aspects of the Local Government Act, 1929 (Anon. 1943 a, b ). He retired in 1930 and died in 1943. His obituaries recorded that he was ‘excessively shy and modest’, that he always ‘overworked’ and had markedly high standards (Anon. 1943 a, b ). Such comments would be equally true of Owain.

Abstract Members of the adhesion family of G protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs) have received attention for their roles in health and disease, including cancer. Over the past decade, several members of the family have been implicated in the pathogenesis of glioblastoma. Here, we discuss the basic biology of adhesion GPCRs and review in detail specific members of the receptor family with known functions in glioblastoma. Finally, we discuss the potential use of adhesion GPCRs as novel treatment targets in neuro-oncology.
