Full textAbstract:
Clinical immunology is becoming an increasingly important area, in terms of its widespread use, in the teaching of rheumatology in cycles of thematic improvement. Purpose: development of a new diagnostic and therapeutic strategy for teaching rheumatological aspects based on the use of immunological knowledge. Rheumatologists are well aware of the simultaneous identification of antibodies to nuclear and cytoplasmic antigens, which contributes to the differential diagnosis of autoimmune pathology. The three versions of the quests we compiled had ambiguous answers from specialists who were well acquainted with clinical rheumatological pathology. 90% of physicians gave the correct, complete answer to the proposed first option (according to the WHO recommendations for the determination of molecular markers). The second variant of the task included activated forms of lymphocytes with phenotype CD69+, CD3+ HLA-DR+, CD19+ CD38+, CD8+ CD38+. Only 50% of physicians answered that such a test reflects the functional state of activated T- and B-lymphocytes and is recommended for monitoring the course of the disease. The next version of the quest was created taking into account the direct functions of receptor structures. Almost all physicians consider it unnecessary to assess minor subpopulations in patients with autoimmune diseases. When interpreting the results of the immunogram, a dissociation syndrome is established — a discrepancy between the direction of changes in the interrelated immunological parameters. The value of dissociation syndrome is that the latter may indicate latent immune defects. With the rapid expansion of new classes of drugs, clinical practice has changed dramatically, this is what drew the attention of rheumatologists to the fundamental knowledge of immunology and mechanisms of action of biological drugs. It should be noted that in many European countries, immunology courses have been developed specifically for rheumatology practice. Thus, the introduction of rheumatological aspects based on the use of immunological knowledge, especially at the stage of postgraduate education, which will contribute to professional development and the development of a full-fledged fully developed personality of the doctor.

Full textAbstract:
Polyketide synthases (PKS) are large multifunctional enzymes that are responsible for the biosynthesis of a wide array of secondary metabolites that are of great interest for medical applications. PKS catalyze carbon-carbon bond formations by successive Claisen condensations of small thioesters. All PKS are organized in modules where each module is composed of catalytic domains that add a single ketide unit to the growing chain and optionally reduce the beta-keto function. The Thioesterase (TE) domain is responsible for the released of the final polyketide chain. Two ways are used by the TE domains: hydrolysis to form a linear chain or cyclization to form a macrolide. The molecular mechanism which controls the cyclization versus hydrolysis decision is not fully understood and a better understanding of this mechanism could be a great interest for generating new pharmaceutical compounds. To answer this question, we are studying the structure and function of PKS TE domains in collaboration with the group of Dr. Boddy (University of Ottawa). Recent results about the biochemical study in complex with inhibitors, crystallization and structures of one of these TE domains will be presented.

Abstract There are a lot of energy saving devices for ships on the market, but few have seen wide adoption on naval ships, with one exception: the bulbous bow. The bulbous bow was developed for naval ships in the early 20th century and is now widespread on a variety of ship designs. Many have wondered if the effect of the bulbous bow — reducing the resistance of a ship by reducing the bow wave — could be replicated somehow at the stern — by reducing the stern wave. This is exactly what is done by a novel and patented energy saving device called Hull Vane®. Invented by Dutch hydrodynamicist Dr Peter van Oossanen for an America’s Cup sailing yacht in the early 21st century, research over the years has shown that this wing-shaped appendage works best on ships that combine a relatively high displacement with a relatively high top speed requirement — even if most sailing hours are done at half speed. Examples are certain offshore vessels, superyachts, patrol vessels and naval ships. On offshore patrol vessels, the resistance reduction from the Hull Vane® ranges typically from 10 to 20% over the entire useful speed range. In this paper, the working principles of the Hull Vane® will be described to give a better under-standing of the device. An overview will be given of the work carried out on naval ships and coastguard ships (25 to 142 m), based on Computational Fluid Dynamics studies, model tests and full-scale applications. The question ‘Why?’ will be answered by translating the hydrodynamic effects to concrete capability improvements for naval ships: a lower fuel consumption, a longer range, reduced signature, a higher top speed and improved seakeeping. The question ‘When?’ will zoom in on whether a Hull Vane® is something to be included in a newbuild or if it is something to be retrofitted to an existing ship. Finally the answer to the question ‘How?’ will explain the process of either integrating a Hull Vane® in a newbuild project or retrofitting it during a midlife upgrade of an existing ship.

In this article the author presents inclusive education as a policy, which in recent decades has often been viewed as a moral imperative. She presents this issue in a dichotomous choice: either full inclusion or special education. This chapter joins other voices in arguing for a more nuanced approach to inclusive practice. One that demands better quality research on which to base decisions and puts student needs and goals above blanket policies that are applied indiscriminately. The author oncludes future research also needs to remediate current limitations of research of the efficacy and effectiveness of inclusive education including: limited comparison or control groups, weak research designs, no measures of treatment fidelity, lack of clarity in the outcome measures (academic, behavioral, adaptive, etc.), limited attention to what the benefits and detriments of inclusion are, variable impact across populations, and to implement more randomized control trials.

ABSTRACTThe question I consider is this:The Question: Can two people–who are, and realize they are, intellectually virtuous to about the same degree–both be rational in continuing knowingly to disagree after full disclosure (by each to the other of all the relevant evidence they can think of) while at the same time thinking that the other may well be rational too?I distinguish two kinds of rationality–internal and external–and argue in section 1 that, whichever kind we have in mind, the answer to The Question is ‘yes’ (though that positive answer is less wholehearted in the case of external rationality). Then, in section 2, I briefly make some more general remarks about when discovering a disagreement provides a defeater and when it doesn't. In the final section, I consider an important objection to the answer given in section 1 to The Question.

Full textAbstract:
Objective: The study assesses the impact of dual enrollment participation on remediation and completion for traditional first time, full-time freshmen at a community college in Northeast Tennessee. Method: This study began with the full population of 1,232 students who enrolled between 2008 and 2012 at a community college in northeast Tennessee the fall semester after finishing high school. The population was required to have American College Testing (ACT) scores, completely fill out the Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA), enroll full-time as a degree-seeking student, and complete the first fall semester. Propensity score matching was utilized to eliminate self-selection bias and enable parametric comparisons using optimal matching of dual enrollment participants and non-participants while controlling for a range of covariates. Results: The analyses showed that community college students who participated in dual enrollment were (a) 9% or nearly 3.4 times less likely to take remediation, (b) 26% or nearly 2.5 times more likely to graduate in 2 years, and (c) 28% or nearly 1.5 times more likely to graduate in 3 years. Contributions: This study contributes to the literature showing that dual enrollment reduces remediation rates and assists in timely completions for community college students. Policy recommendations are to increase equitable participation, normalize dual enrollment for students academically able to do college coursework, align state terminology with the nation, and improve data for future research.

Full textAbstract:
“Every morning you have 2 choices:
Continue to sleep with your dreams
Or wake up and chase them.”
--- J.S. Tinaza
Dr. Tinaza may not have been Shakespeare, Poe or Frost but he was known for his meaningful verses which he posted on viber, mundane and profound thoughts about life and recent photos he captured in his timeline.
Dr. Jomar S. Tinaza obtained his Doctor of Medicine degree from the De La Salle University College of Medicine in 1995. He joined the Quezon City General Hospital residency training program with Dr. Carmina G. Galang in January 2000. In January 2003, the Philippine Board of Otolaryngology – Head and Neck Surgery accredited the training program. Dr. Galang graduated in 2004 while Jomar opted to extend his training for 2 years to complete the 4 years needed to become board-eligible. Hence, Jomar was the first alumnus of the QCGH ENT department. He passed the Diplomate exam on Sep 17, 2010. His extended stay was instrumental for our full accreditation and Dr. Pascual, his previous training officer and chair admired him for his extraordinary ideas and trusted him to accomplish certain tasks beyond his comfort zone.
He saw the potential of a good clinical practice in cosmetic surgery and pursued subspecialty training in facial aesthetic surgery under the Facial Aesthetic Core of ENT Surgeons (FACES) in 2010. Afterwards Jomar and his wife Amy established the Asian Aesthetic Center in Katipunan Ave. He became a visiting and subspecialty consultant in Maxillofacial, Facial Plastic and Reconstructive surgery of the department in 2011.
As a mentor, he unselfishly shared his skills and diligently assisted the residents during surgery working pro bono as a visiting consultant. He came early to attend grand rounds, was never satisfied with mediocre answers, persistently scrutinizing and demanding precision and accuracy. Sometimes his queries may have been perceived as nit-picking but they certainly echoed the effervescence and eagerness of a budding junior consultant plunging into the dynamics of clinical discussion. He helped organized the series of international postgraduate courses in Facial Plastic Surgery in QCGH from 2010 – 2012.
As a consultant, Jomar was a silent worker who actively participated and contributed voluntarily. He co-authored the paper on a case series of Tessier patients which is published in the current issue of this journal; he assisted in a case of tuberous sclerosis which he proposed as a case report to represent the department this year; he was preparing a descriptive paper on a case series of rhinoplasty in cleft noses; and he helped amputate an Abbe flap on a clinical patient with lip cancer, a week before he left. He was invited to lecture in a postgraduate course at St. Luke’s Medical Center after the PSO-HNS annual convention and he subsequently gave an inspirational talk where he emphasized the value of hard work and patience to succeed, during the residents’ graduation last December.
One of his passions was photography. He had a keen eye for taking pictures of people in action, picturesque sceneries and documenting events. He even proposed a post-graduate course on photography especially on selecting the proper angle, exposure, and lighting before and after cosmetic surgery and showcased a photo exhibit of his works.
Jomar treated his patients with compassion and pampered them with care with his motto and familiar verse: “Do all things with kindness.” He was generous and gracious to hospital employees and treated the residents as members of an extended family. To break loose from the monotony and grime of daily routine, he would often invite residents to have dinner in their new house at LGV, share thoughts and perspectives about life over a bottle of beer or shots of tequila, once in a while dishing out songs from his own repertoire. The staff will miss his silly grin while holding the microphone during videoke nites at the perennial watering hole in Bauschmann cafe. He had a toast for all occasions, with a pocketful of cheers and stories to tell. One of his favorite lines was, “for good looks and good life…”
Jomar had a penchant for gadgets-- buying gifts especially for his wife, he savored food, dining, and vacations with his family. As a husband, Amy could not ask for more. During the necrological rites, she confided that there were times when she would wake up and catch Jomar staring at her, giving her the impression that she was the most beautiful woman in this world. And to his 2 sons, Earl and Marcus, Jomar was a loving father who woke up early and took them to school, securing a brighter future for both of them.
True to his words, Jomar never slept and chased his dream. He undoubtedly touched many people’s lives along the way. The staff grieves and deeply mourns the passing of a fellow, colleague, comrade, mentor, brother, and friend. His gestures and verses will continue to reverberate, long after he has gone.

Trace elements play a key role in a wide range of biological processes. A full understanding of those processes requires a knowledge not only of the genomics and proteomics of the organism, but also the distribution and concentration of trace elements. A new application of inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry (ICP-MS) provides the capability to directly visualize trace elements in soft tissue, offering the promise of improved diagnosis and monitoring of disease.

The “Croats of Islamic faith” – reality or a creation of propaganda? According to the latest census, in 2001, 56, 777 Muslims live in the Republic of Croatia. The present article is an attempt to answer the following questions about these “Croats of Islamic faith” (Hrvati islamske vjeroispovjesti): Who are they? Where do they come from? And how are they socially perceived?The notion that the Bosnian Muslims are “Croats of the purest blood” was first formulated in the first half of the XIX century by Dr. Ante Starčević, the founder of the Law Party and the originator of a modern Croatian national doctrine. His views were fully adopted and accepted by the Ustasha propaganda, which claims that Bosnia and Herzegovina is the historical cradle of the Croatian state. As a result of this, local Muslims enjoyed a status which was equal to that of the Catholic community. Some propaganda gestures of the time, such as a celebration of the opening of a big mosque in downtown Zagreb, were meant to make the Bosnian Muslims accept the idea of the NDH state and induce them to enroll in the Ustasha Army. After World War II numerous Muslims, who uncritically became advocates of the Ustasha propaganda also shared the fate of Pavelic and his followers. The other Muslims who left their country before the war cultivated the infamous traditions of the NDH state, as well as the myth of an apparent Catholic-Muslim brotherhood.Following the civil war (1991–1995) thousands of Muslim refugees from Bosnia and Herzegovina returned to Croatia, and the issue of their ethnic identity caused some problems. The level of social acceptance of the Muslim community in this traditionally Catholic community, however, is insufficient given the history, and displays of religious activity such as the establishment of Islamic schools and the building of mosques, raise anxiety and a fear of Islamicization amongst many Catholic Croatians. One can observe ongoing and endless Internet debates on the issue as to whether or not the Muslims living in Croatia are true Croatians, while politicians struggle to make use of the Muslim issue for their own purposes. In reality the “Croats of Islamic faith” are simply trying to adapt themselves to the global community and are too busy with everyday matters that they seem not to notice these debates that are largely theoretical.

Subcutaneous low molecular weight heparins are widely used in hospitalised patients for the treatment of DVT, pulmonary embolism and acute coronary syndromes, as well as for thromboprophylaxis. Rectus sheath hematoma is a recognised, but sometimes misdiagnosed, complication of treatment with anticoagulant therapy,1 including full and prophylactic doses of low molecular weight heparin.2 Studies have shown that the most frequent location of a haematoma is in the lower part of the abdomen. The explanation for this lies in the anatomy of the abdominal wall.3 The rectus abdominis muscle lies between the aponeuroses of the transverse and oblique muscles, which form the so-called rectus sheath. In this lower aspect of the muscle the perforating branches of the inferior epigastric artery running in the preperitoneal fat may rupture causing a large haematoma widely spreading in this loose space. Care should be taken to avoid this area for injection of heparin, particularly in thin patients where inadvertent intramuscular.

Abstract Human bone marrow contains a rare population of non-hematopoietic mesenchymal stromal cells (BM-MSC) with multilineage differentiation capacity, which are essential constituents of the hematopoietic microenvironment. Self-renewal and differentiation are the two key properties of somatic stem cells, however, stem cell properties of human adult BM-MSC have not been demonstrated conclusively yet. We have previously shown that low/negative expression of PDGFRα on linneg/CD45neg/CD271pos cells identified a highly enriched population of primary BM-MSC in adult human bone marrow (Li et al. Blood, 2013, 122:3699). Based on this work, the current study aimed to investigate the in-vitro and in-vivo stem cell properties of this putative stromal stem cell population. The in-vitro clonogenic potential of freshly sorted human linneg/CD45neg/CD271pos/PDGFRlow/neg cells was evaluated by utilizing the CFU-F assay as well as the recently-developed mesensphere assay, which enables MSC amplification while preserving an immature phenotype (Isern et al, Cell Reports 2013, 30: 1714-24). Comparable colony frequencies were obtained with both assays (19.3 ± 2 and 17.5 ± 2.3 CFU-F and spheres per 100 plated cells, respectively, n=6, p=0.19). In order to test whether both assays identified the same population of clonogenic cells, colonies and spheres were replated under both conditions for up to three generations. The results showed comparable capacities of CFU-F and mesenspheres to form secondary and tertiary CFU-F and spheres. In-vitro self-renewal as indicated by increasing numbers of CFU-F and spheres (416.6 ± 431.7-fold and 49.5 ± 65.7-fold, respectively, n=3) was observed up to the third generation and decreased thereafter. The total number of generations was five (CFU-F) and six (spheres). In-vitro differentiation assays with both, CFU-F- and sphere-derived cells (tested until passage three) demonstrated tri-lineage differentiation potential (adipocytes, osteoblasts, chondrocytes). In addition, CFU-Fs and spheres had comparable surface marker profiles (CD73, CD90, CD105, and HLA-ABC positive; CD31, CD34 and HLA-DR negative), except for CD90, which was higher expressed on CFU-Fs. To investigate in-vivo self-renewal and differentiation potential of the putative stromal stem cells, linneg/CD45neg/CD271pos/PDGFRlow/neg -derived CFU-F and spheres were serially transplanted s.c into NSG mice. After 8 weeks, implants were harvested, human cells were FACS-isolated (CD90 and CD105 expression), and re-assayed under CFU-F and sphere conditions. Whereas in-vivo self-renewal of CFU-F could not be shown (111.5 ± 36 –fold decrease in total CFU-F numbers after primary transplantation, n=3), sphere self-renewal was clearly demonstrated by increased numbers of spheres after primary as well as secondary transplantation (1.13 ± 0.05 and 2.06 ± 0.26 –fold, respectively, n=3), which is remarkable given the fact that the number of recovered human cells is underestimated due to the isolation approach. Here, confirming GFP-marking experiments are ongoing. Finally, preliminary data indicate that linneg/CD45neg/CD271pos/PDGFRlow/neg –derived spheres display full in-vivo differentiation capacity in primary and secondary transplantations. Taken together, our data demonstrate - for the first time - that primary human linneg/CD45neg/CD271pos/PDGFRlow/neg cells meet stringent stem cell criteria, i.e. in-vitro and in-vivo self-renewal and differentiation. These findings answer the long-open question of the potential stem cell properties of adult human MSC and will enable to better understand the properties of native BM-MSC and their biological role in the bone marrow. Disclosures No relevant conflicts of interest to declare.

‘So why do you want to do Acute Medicine?’ – it’s a common interview question, and one for which most prospective trainees will have a well-prepared answer. Sometimes the candidate will focus on the opportunities for multi-professional working and teamwork, as well as interactions with critical care and other specialities; however almost all will mention the wide variety of conditions with which acute physicians are faced in their daily practice. What may appear a simple problem at the time of presentation may have a twist in the tail which will catch out the unwary. The need to maintain a broad differential diagnosis is a key skill for the acute physician: I frequently need to remind trainees that ‘Query ACS – measure 12 hour troponin’ is not an acceptable management plan. It is crucial to remember that even when a condition like acute coronary syndrome has been ‘excluded’, a serious cause may still be lurking. Several of the articles in this edition illustrate such caveats. In the review of the diagnosis and management of aortic dissection, the variability of presentation is illustrated with a case where the onset of symptoms preceded the hospital admission by several weeks and was initially labelled as ‘musculoskeletal’. In this case it was the chest x-ray which raised the clinical suspicion when a change in the mediastinal contour was identified. However, serious spinal causes of chest pain, such as the spontaneous extradural haematoma on p76, will only be diagnosed by more complex imaging; this will be hard to arrange without a clear clinical indication. The rarity of this condition means that most will not have come across a case and will therefore be unaware of the need to consider this diagnosis. The importance of a careful history, refreshingly emphasised in the recent NICE guidance on chest pain of possible cardiac origin as summarised by Charlotte Cannon in this edition, cannot be understated. Many readers will have come across patients with erythema nodosum, referred as ‘unresolving cellulitis’ – often these turn out to have sarcoidosis as described in Dr Chakraborty’s case series, although other underlying causes need also to be considered. Cellulitis may also be a manifestation of a subcutaneous source of infection, particularly when it appears in an unusual site; Denzil May’s case illustrates the need to image the abdomen when presented with abdominal wall cellulites – on this occasion an underlying psoas abscess was the cause although appendix abscesses, inflammatory bowel disease, diverticular abscesses and pelvic collections also need to be considered. The opportunity to learn a practical procedure has been a subject of considerable debate amongst acute medical trainees over recent years, and has been highlighted in this journal in the past. Much of the focus in previous editions has been on echocardiography. Ultrasound is another practical procedure which is listed in the training curriculum for Acute Medicine, although the feasibility of training acute medical trainees in this area has not been fully evaluated. Dr Ismaeel’s study comparing the outcome of ultrasound undertaken at the bedside by an acute medical trainee and that undertaken in the radiology department may stimulate some debate on the value of this. This study looked specifically at diagnostic ultrasound of the abdomen and demonstrated that some conditions could be identified at the bedside, though probably not with enough reliability to prevent the need for a subsequent departmental ultrasound. The key is whether the specific questions can be answered by the ‘occasional’ sonographer using portable equipment: ‘are the bile ducts dilated?’, ‘are the kidneys obstructed?’, ‘are there metastases in the liver?’, ‘is there ascites or is it just fat?’ – knowing the answers to such questions can inf luence management out of hours, although currently most patients will have to wait until the morning for a scan. A formal training programme in acute medical ultrasound will need to focus clearly on these specific areas, rather than generic diagnostic ultrasound skills. Many readers will be familiar with the rapid turnover of AMU nursing staff, particularly at a junior level, which can undermine the ability to develop a stable workforce. In a questionnaire study in Birmingham and Dundee, consultant nurses Liz Lees and Liz Myers have produced some interesting data which may help to improve recruitment and retention of nurses on Acute Medical Units. It seems that, as with junior doctors, it is the variety which is the main attraction, as well as the being the main factor which keeps nurses interested in working on the AMU. Correspondence relating to this and any other issues relating to articles in this journal would be most welcome.

Objectives: To develop a model to predict biochemical recurrence (BCR) after radical prostatectomy (RP), using artificial intelligence (AI) techniques. Patients and Methods: This study collected data from 7,128 patients with prostate cancer (PCa) who received RP at 3 tertiary hospitals. After preprocessing, we used the data of 6,755 cases to generate the BCR prediction model. There were 16 input variables with BCR as the outcome variable. We used a random forest to develop the model. Several sampling techniques were used to address class imbalances. Results: We achieved good performance using a random forest with synthetic minority oversampling technique (SMOTE) using Tomek links, edited nearest neighbors (ENN), and random oversampling: accuracy = 96.59%, recall = 95.49%, precision = 97.66%, F1 score = 96.59%, and ROC AUC = 98.83%. Conclusion: We developed a BCR prediction model for RP. The Dr. Answer AI project, which was developed based on our BCR prediction model, helps physicians and patients to make treatment decisions in the clinical follow-up process as a clinical decision support system.

Full textAbstract:
Dr. Miloje Milojevic (1884-1946) was a central figure in Serbian music criticism and academic essays between the World Wars. A large part of his writings on music were dedicated to the issue of the Serbian ?national music style?, its means of expression, and the question of modernity, i. e. to what extent modernity is desirable in the ?national style?. This paper analyzes some twenty articles - reviews, essays, and writings for special occasions - published by Milojevic between 1912 and 1942 in various Serbian newspapers magazines and collections: Srpski knjizevni glasnik (The Serbian Literary Magazine, 1912, 1913, 1914, 1923, 1924, 1935), Prosvetni glasnik (The Educational Herald, 1914, 1921, 1942), Politika (The Politics, 1921, 1922 1923, 1937, 1938, 1940, 1941), Muzika (The Music, twice in 1928) Spomenica-album Udruzenja muzikanata Kraljevine Jugoslavije 1928-1930 (The Commemorative Volume - The Album of the Society of Musicians of the Kingdom of Yugoslavia 1928-1930, 1930), Smena (The Change, 1938), and Slavenska muzika (The Slavonic Music, 1940). In the course of those thirty years Milojevic passionately believed that the future of Serbian music lies in the ?national style?, i.e. in the artistic transformation of anonymous Serbian folk songs and melodies. In spite of the changes of styles that occurred over the years, he never gave up anticipating the appearance of an ingenious composer who would develop the ?national style? to its climax and enrich Serbian music with ?national? symphonies, operas and chamber music. Milojevic was in favour of a ?national style? mainly on principle. He rarely got into a discussion about the stylistic and technical means he considered most suitable for the ?national style?. In his text Nas muzicko umetnicki program (Our music and artistic programme), published in the Serbian Literary Magazine in 1913, and another article, Za folklornu muziku (In favour of Folk Music), published in the Belgrade daily newspaper Politics in 1921, he recommended that Serbian ?national style? composers followed the model of some representatives of the European national schools of romanticism impressionism and moderately modern music. In a special kind of manifesto Za ideju umetnosti i umetnickog nacionalizma kod nas (In favour of the idea of art and artistic nationalism in Serbia), published in 1935 in the Serbian Literary Magazine, he gave an indirect answer to the question of which means of musical expression he preferred in the ?national style?. For example, he singled out the composition Sever duva (North Wind) by Kosta P. Manojlovic (1890-1949), from his collection of choral songs Pesme zemlje Skenderbegove (The Songs from the Land of Skenderbeg, 1933), as an outstanding example of what he meant by ?national style?. This Albanian folk music was transformed into a relatively modern, but yet not avant-garde composition. Therein lies the answer as to what kind of ?national style? Milojevic preferred. An advocate of a moderately modern music language, he wished Serbian art music to use its very rich folk heritage as best as it could. He was well aware that times had changed, and that there was not much inclination towards this style and ideology in the interwar period. However, he never abandoned this idea. Basically, he never accepted more radical, expressionist treatments of folk elements as a solution to the problems of ?national style?. It is also very significant that he never mentioned the name B?la Bart?k in his writings, which is something we analyze in this paper. He was never able to give up romanticism, a style that never had time to fully develop in Serbian music. Serbian folk music was a perfect basis for composing in a romantic style. Nevertheless, due to many unfavourable circumstances in Serbian history, the Serbs became part of European music world only at the beginning of the 20th century, when it was too late to develop a modern romantic national style.

After almost 20 years working with scientific publications, this is the first time I am not sure how to proceed. However, I will try to do an excellent special Issue about Professor Lavinel. If you are wondering why this edition is late, the answer is simple. It is because I am stubborn, and I learned from the best about how to be stubborn. Also, it is not so fun to work in Professor’s Lavinel Journal without him. In fact, it is very hard. I start to work with Professor Lavinel around 2002 or 2003, I was a student of his in the classes of wave-mechanics or quantum chemistry, as he used to say. Until that time, the graduation course in Chemistry was not so interesting to me, but the classes were so impressive that when I was approved, I made to Professor Lavinel the most awkward request “next semester can I retake this course?”. I remember the expression in his face, and he said: “you were approved, why to retake this class?”. My answer was not the best, but in the end, he allowed me to see the classes again. So during the next semester, there was I, in every class paying attention. The support of my friends and family was exceptional. The phrases “are you crazy?” and “this is a hard class why are you taking it twice?”. But as Goldani used to say “your criticism only makes me stronger.”. In the end, there was I learning how to make new things. At that time it used to make sense to me, and chemistry becomes much more straightforward.

Full textAbstract:
AbstractWhile controversy about the nature of grounding abounds, our focus is on a question for which a particular answer has attracted something like a consensus. The question concerns the relation between partial grounding and full grounding. The apparent consensus is that the former is to be defined in terms of the latter. In this article, we argue that the standard way of doing this faces a significant problem and that we ought to pursue the reverse project of defining full grounding in terms of partial grounding. The guiding idea behind the definition we propose is that full grounding is what happens when partial grounding works in a way that ensures that the grounded is nothing over and above the grounds. We ultimately understand this idea in terms of iterated ‘nothing over and above’ claims.
