Abstract:
In domestic theory of breeding line breeding takes the leading place, because it uses the valuable genetic material of the bull’s leaders. Numerous studies have continuously monitored the economically beneficial traits of animals of different lines, both within breeding herds and in the general breed population. The Brown Carpathian cattle of the combined direction of productivity were officially recognized as breed and, accordingly, had all components of the breed structure (local lines and families). It should be noted that this breed has disappeared taking into account the fact that there has been no active (breeding) population since 2011. The purpose of the study is the schematic location of the bulls of the Brown Carpathian breed lines in generations, as well as the characterization of line extensions indicating the production of mothers. The material of the study was the State Books of Breeding Animals of eight volumes (1948, 1968, 1972, 1975, 1978, 1983, 1987 and 1992). Catalogs of dairy breed bulls for 1985–1988 were also used to evaluate the bull’s lines and groups. Since 1972 (the time of the official recognition of the breed) and until now (in the form of genetic material that is concentrated in cryobanks) the Brown Carpathian breed has the following local lines and related groups: Pishty 10 KAZ-67, Malchyka 3 KAZ-145, Shoni 6 KAZ-81, Fitsko 33 KAZ-107, Yury 32–Iuvelira 273, Kaplara 43 KAZ-9, Sokola 553 KAZ-182, Siroho 1759 KAZ-70, Bondi 101 KAZ-25 and Muki 100 KAZ-22 and Valsa 1205 KAZ-171. The total number of bulls under study is 535 heads, including the 1st generation – 109 heads, the II generation – 111 goals, III generation – 126 goals, IV generation – 99 goals, V generation – 65 goals, VI generation – 24 goals. and VII generation – 1 head. The investigated bulls were born during 1939… 1990 years. The related group of bull Bondi 101 KAZ-25 in the genealogical structure of the Brown Carpathian breed did not spread. The main reason was the small number of bulls. The bull was born in 1948 in the collective farm. Lenin of Mukachevo district of Zakarpattia region. Kappa’s 43 KAZ-9 local line. The ancestor of the line was born in 1944 and came from bull Shoni 2 and Montsii (8–300–4800–3.84). The live weight at the age of Kaplar 43 was 920 kg at the age of 11 with 82 points for the exterior. Local line of Malchyka 3 KAZ-145. The line's founder was born in 1948 and belonged to the collective farm. Dimitrov Mukachevo district of Zakarpattia region. Its origin is unknown. The Sokol’s 553 KAZ-182 local line. The founder of the line was born in 1949 and belonged to the collective farm "For a new life" of the Irshava district of Zakarpattia region. Its high live weight (5 years 840 kg) and body dimensions (height at the withers 145 cm, oblique torso length 180 cm, girth of the breast 220 and pestle 21 cm) ensured the animal’s mass. The related group of bull Muki 100 KAZ-22. The founder of the factory line was born in 1949 and had a brown suit and belonged to the collective farm. Chapayev. It was born of the Malyny 719, which received 4922 kg of milk for the fourth lactation and the bull Buki 220 of the Brown Swiss breed. The related group of bull Siroho 1759 ZCP-70. The founder of the bull Siryi 1759 was born in 1962 year. The live weight of 920 kg bull at the age of 5 years with 85,5 points for the exterior. The local line of Fitsko 33 KAZ-107. Bull Fitsko 33 has brown suit, was born in 1948, and belonged Zakarpattia Regional Agricultural Research Station. In the 12 years of its live weight was 840 kg. The local line of Pishty 10 KAZ-67. Pishty 10, the line's ancestor, was born in 1947 and was brown. He was born to a high-yielding cow Senesha 10, from which 2 lactations received 6240 kg milk of 3.7% fat, and bull Shandora 1. The Shoni 6 KAZ-81 local line is one of the leading in the Brown Carpathian breed. The ancestor of the line was born in 1949 from cow Fania 171, which for the 4th lactation yielded 4800 kg of milk with a fat content of 3.7% and the Fidelio bull of the Brown Swiss breed. The local line of the Yuri 32 KAZ-8-Yuvelira 273 KAZ-162 is the most numerous and branched in the Brown Carpathian breed. The ancestor of the lineage bull Yura 32 was born in 1943 from the cow of Cavia 517, from which for the 2nd lactation received 3014 kg with a fat content of 3.75%. Its live weight at 4 years was 850 kg. The related group of bull Valsa 1205 KAZ-171. The founder of Valsa 1205 was born in 1961 years. At 2 years of age, it had a live weight of 545 kg and a high exterior rating of 90.5 points. It came from Venetsia 564 (3–299–4416–3,6) and the Brown Swiss bull Iltis 7623. The genealogical structure of line breeding and related groups is presented covering the period of the birth of the bulls during 1939 ... 1990 and has 535 goals. During this time, local lines were tested and related groups were formed. The production lines of Pishta 10, Fitzko 33, Shoni 6 and Yury 32-Yuvelira 273, were the most numerous, and the number of bulls in each exceeded 70 goals. Less numerous (›6 goals) were the related groups of the Bondi 101 and Valsa 1205. Each group related to the ancestor has its twigs and branches.

Abstract:
The interdisciplinary practice-based research project, ‘The apotheosis of man, the forgotten peacock; from deconstruction to reconstruction to re-proposal of the male suit’, through a series of workshops and an interactive performance installation, aims to challenge the persisting conventional tradition of designing and wearing the male suit, proposing alternative perspectives by researcher – performance designer. The investigation focuses on the tools and means of processing the male suit in practice. It explores how to overcome conventions, generate artistic ideas, and how to apply this to something wearable. This visual essay demonstrates how the outcomes of three workshops fed on the creation of the experimental research driven suits. In all the workshops the participants were set the task to create a series of male garments by questioning and reinterpreting the notion of the masculinity and by using concepts and methods representative of deconstruction. Every participant designed and made a male garment by recycling a male suit jacket. The first presented workshop took place in May 2007, at the University of the Arts Bucharest, Romania and the participants were the second-year fashion design students. The second took place in September 2013 at the ‘World Stage Design Exhibition’, as part of the ‘Costume in Action series – Upcycling Costume: DeReconstructing Masculinity’. The participants were a mixture of student and professional international performance designers. The final two pages demonstrate the Plus Series suits, based on the addition of design elements to the suit.

Abstract:
This article outlines the ways in which suits are synonymous with masculinity examining the, sometimes paradoxical, nature of suits worn by men of all social classes, and for different reasons. For example, hegemonic men wear suits in a bid to convey power, arguably, by rendering the wearers uniform in appearance so that the focus is on what hegemonic men might say and do, rather than how they might look. Moreover, the uniformity of suits is a means by which men of a lower social class demonstrate aspiration to a higher social class and might affect hegemonic power through wearing them. While much has been written about masculinity and suits, with many authors agreeing that the bespoke suit is at the pinnacle of the hierarchy of men’s clothing, yet there is a little attention paid to the way in which the bespoke suit is represented in media or popular culture. This article examines the role of clothing of the main characters in the filmKingsman: The Secret Service(2014) with a particular focus on the contribution that the bespoke suit makes to the masculinity of the bodies of the individuals within the film. Principally, the bespoke suit elevates the body of the wearer from quotidian to tailored, the fitting of which allows for better representation of a man’s body. It will explore representation of middle-class masculinity, hegemony and embodiment in the film, addressing the idea of whether wearing a bespoke suit can help a man transcend the boundaries of ‘chav’ masculinity, which is depicted as male subordination, and rise into middle-class hegemonic masculinity through the character of Gary ‘Eggsy’ Unwin (Taron Egerton).

Agatha Christie set a number of her popular novels in British colonies in the Middle East, Africa and the Caribbean. While there is a lot of research about the portrayal of the colonised in the Middle East, there is only little to be found on those of Africa and the Caribbean. Therefore, this thesis aims to compare the portrayals of the Middle Eastern, African and Caribbean colonised by analysing Christie's The Man in the Brown Suit, Murder in Mesopotamia, Appointment with Deah, and A Caribbean Mystery.

Abstract:
The brown crab or European edible crab Cancer pagurus is one of the most economically important crab species in European waters with landings of 49 263 t in 2013. C. pagurus is also one of the most important commercial species in the United Kingdom with landings of 28 778 t in 2013 worth approximately £33.5M at first sale. The global capture production of brown crab has increased markedly during the last two decades. Despite this, the crab fishery is relatively data poor in terms of the ecology and catch characteristics of this species, particularly in the Irish Sea. The aims of this study were to provide the information to fill science gaps needed to inform sustainable brown crab fisheries in the Isle of Man. This was done by studying the population structure, reproductive ecology and catch characteristics of the brown crab fishery, and by examining the impacts of scallop fisheries on brown crabs, as well as assessing the by-catch composition of the brown crab pot fishery. A combination of sampling techniques was used to collect data which included: baited pots between Spring 2012 and Summer 2013, dredge, trawl and shore surveys. The catch per unit effort (CPUE) of crabs caught in traps was strongly influenced by environmental (i.e., temperature, season, area) and fishery specific factors (i.e., pot volume). This study compared fishery dependent data (FDD) and fishery independent data (FID) to assess the CPUE estimates. Both of these data sources gave similar results which indicated that fisher-based surveys provide good quality information for future monitoring of the population provided that environmental and gear effects are accounted for. This study also determined the total exploitation rate of brown crab using both commercial and recreational fisheries data. The latter contributed only a small percentage of total mortality which is largely due to strict controls on total recreational fishing effort. Observations of the distribution of brown crabs around the Isle of Man indicated the presence of a reproductive migration. Ovigerous crabs were generally found in offshore areas. These egg carrying females varied in size from 134 to 215 mm CW and each individual carried an estimated 0.4-3.0 million eggs. However, examination of behavioural maturity indicated that the earliest presence of sperm plugs was at 110 mm CW while functional maturity was 134 mm CW. There appears to be a predictable trend across Europe in the minimum size of egg bearing which appears to be related to water temperature. Based on quantitative data collected throughout the dredge surveys the potential impact of scallop dredging on the brown crab population was estimated in terms of by-catch, damage and mortality estimates. This study indicated that female crabs were particularly vulnerable to scallop dredging around the North-West coast of the island in November when fishing effort was highest in this area. Estimates of the potential mortality associated with scallop dredging led to a lower and higher estimate of a potential annual crab by-catch mortality of between 11 t and 17 t respectively (assuming 45% mortality of the crab by-catch), which represented 2.2 - 3.4% of the commercial landings of brown crab for the Isle of Man. Thus at present levels of fishing (up until 2014) this would seem to contribute a relatively small proportion of total mortality to the crab population. Nevertheless, an extension of the scallop dredging closed season until the end of November in the area of the Targets fishing ground might be a useful conservation measure if scallop dredging activity were to increase in the future. By-catch in pot fisheries is poorly studied in general. A total of 43 by-catch species were found in crustacean pots lifted around the Isle of Man and the velvet swimming crab Necora puber was the most abundant by-catch species. This study identified significant spatial differences in the CPUE of by-catch species; the highest by-catch CPUE was recorded around the west coast of the Isle of Man. However, seasonal changes in by-catch were less important. There was a significant negative relationship between the two target species (brown crab and European common lobster). However, there was no significant relationship between by-catch composition and target species (a combination of crab and lobster) composition.

Abstract:
INTRODUCTION: Abnormalities of energy expenditure (EE) in obesity and type II diabetes mellitus have been described in animal models and adult man and it has been suggested that these abnormalities predispose to weight gain. In rodents there is evidence for a requirement for insulin in regulatory thermogenesis mediated via brown adipose tissue (BAT). The hypotheses that, firstly, insulin has a role in the control of EE and, secondly, that this is mediated by BAT in adult man were tested in the present studies. METHODS: Three components of daily EE resting metabolic rate (RMR), and the thermic responses to a mixed liquid meal (32.6 KJ/kg) and to an infusion of noradrenaline (NA), 0.1 μg/kg/min, were measured using indirect calorimetry in type I and type II diabetic subjects. The components of EE were measured in 9 lean type I diabetics initially while poorly controlled on conventional therapy (CT), HbA_1 12.1±0.7%; (mean±SEM), and then when optimally controlled on continuous subcutaneous insulin infusion (CSII) (HbA_1 7.5±0.2%). The response to fat supplementation for one week (5.23 MJ/day) was assessed and the results compared to 8 non-diabetic control subjects. These parameters were also measured in 8 type II diabetics controlled on diet and oral hypoglycaemic agents (HbA1 8.6±0.7%) in order to ascertain whether the alterations in body weight during metformin therapy (weight loss) or sulphonylurea therapy (weight gain) were reflected in alterations of EE. An estimation of the thermogenic potential of BAT in adult man was attempted by histological (light and electron microscopy) and biochemical (GDP binding, cytochrome c oxidase activity and respiration of isolated mitochondria and adipocytes) studies on perirenal BAT obtained at post mortem and during surgery. RESULTS: Poorly controlled type I diabetic subjects had a significantly (p< .01)) raised RMR (4.92±0.27 KJ/min) which returned to predicted value (4.6±0.34 KJ/min) on attainment of optimal glycaemic control. This decrease in RMR may partly explain the mean gain in weight (3.5 kg) observed during CSII. The thermic response to infused NA was decreased by over 50% during CT (27.1±3.4 KJ controls vs. 11.1±3.7 KJ diabetic CT; p< 01) and did not significantly improve during CSII (13.4±3.7 KJ). A blunted thermic response to a meal was observed during fat supplementation with CT (44.8±14.0 KJ) but CSII corrected this (71±9.9 KJ). Hence insulin has a role in the control of EE but precise replacement does not correct all these abnormalities in Type I diabetes mellitus. 2. Type II diabetic subjects had a normal RMR and thermic responses and these were similar whether on metformin or sulphonylurea therapy. This suggests that alterations in EE do not account for the changes in weight during treatment with these agents. 3. Histological and biochemical studies demonstrated the presence of functional BAT in adult man with activity equivalent to the partially cold-adapted guinea pig suggesting some potential for thermogenesis in adult man. However, it was calculated that this tissue can account for only 0.2% of the rise in oxygen consumption during NA infusion and suggests that this tissue has little energetic significance in adult man. CONCLUSIONS: These data suggest that although type I diabetes mellitus may be associated with abnormalities of EE these are unlikely to be mediated through BAT metabolism in man.

Abstract:
This critical, creative, nonfiction text captures what it means to be a ‘brown’ man in ‘Canadian’ society; many of ‘us’ find ‘our’ socialization process traumatic, leading to alienation, low self-esteem, internalized racism, anger, crime and even outright violence. The complex nuances of ‘Sikh’ racialization are revealed by creating a bricolage of literary styles and forms. I employ bricolage because a multivariate approach enables me to better explore and reveal the complexities, nuances and contradictions of being a ‘brown’ man. My personal experiences of racialization are embedded throughout these works of poetry, prose and creative non-fiction. This collection of texts examines the shortcomings of ‘Canadian’ multiculturalism and their impacts on the socialization of ‘Indo-Canadian’ men by focusing on themes of racism, history, violence, immigrant labour, internalized racism and racial profiling. In doing so, this research focuses on two inter-related questions: 1. “What kinds of discursive and structural dimensions of ‘multicultural’ Canada maintain cultural stereotypes and forms of racism that I have experienced personally?” 2. “How can I better understand and come to terms with my alienation as an ‘Indo-Canadian’ male in relation to how ‘brown’ violence has been constructed by the media and in turn understood by the general public?” This thesis encourages the reader to acknowledge and examine his/her (mis)perceptions of ‘Sikhs,’ and in turn, to acknowledge and examine how his/her actions and inactions contribute to the sociological challenges that confront ‘Indo-Canadian’ men.

In the study of the fashion trends and image formation of male fashion styles, though the speed of the replacement cycle and fashion change is far less obvious than female fashion, fine fashion changes can still be observed in male fashion presented in different seasons and years. After such long-term or short-term cycle subjective judgment, or objective factor comparison and analysis, we can conclude the suitable adaptive design principles and the elements of form for male fashion designs. However, the attribute of most publications of fashion study reports and literature is subject criticisms or observational opinions. For example, in his study on the image of male employees, male and female employee fashion image scholar Forsythe (1990) discovered that clothes with modern and masculine images can help employees to find a job more easily. Forsythe (1990) further categorized male fashion with positive male symbols: blazers made with plain fabrics in a dim or cold tone and jackets with an intelligent sense. In general, most studies were conducted through interviews, and their conclusions are rather rough and subjective. The motivation of this study attempts to find if a more persuasive scientific verifications can be achieved by using more objective methods of research in exploring fashion images in addition to a qualitative study. That is, Kansei Engineering is applied to the systemic study of fashion-related issues in order to develop more accurate and richer academic theories for fashion design. The aim of this study is to establish the perceive space in images of male suit styles; and to infer the adaptive design principles through comparison and analysis of the correlations among the elements of suit styles as a reference for practical suit style image design. In fashion design, form image is the most important factor. Regarding the form image of fashion, texture image is the prime affecting factor. Especially for men’s suits, there is not much variation in their shape and style; therefore, the fabrics used in making them determine their texture image. For this reason, this research probed into the texture image of suit fabrics. First, quality analysis and comparison of the image of the suit’s look were conducted to deduce the consumer’s and designer’s common understanding of the prototype of men’s suit. Meanwhile, the frequently used fabrics for making men’s suit were collected. From them, 61 fabrics were selected as tested samples for this study. With expert interview and literature review, the morphological chart of the patterns, weave, and color of the fabrics and 16 related adjective pairs were conc1uded. Then, the experiments of semantic differential (SD) evaluation on the image of these fabric samples as well as of grouping samples with similar fabric texture were conducted. With factor analysis on the SD evaluation data, an image space with four constituting factors was yielded. By examining the distribution of fabric samples in this space, the relationship between the physical features concerning the texture image and the people’s feeling of the image were concluded. Furthermore, this research has figured out a three dimensional perceptual space of texture image of suit fabrics through multidimensional scaling (MDS) analysis on the data collected from the similarity grouping experiment. Based on these results, certain principles for the design of image for men’s suits with proper fabrics were proposed.

Abstract:
This project is centered on two primary concerns. First, to reformulate Adornos notion of ethical subjectivity in a way that allows for a clearer articulation of his normative position, and second, to make it more relevant to our contemporary social context and advances in social theory. My claim is that we can achieve this by rejecting Adornos philosophical method (negative dialectics and constellations) by reading his ethics through the lens of ieks method which I am calling autoprohibition. As I will show, autoprohibition is ieks strategy for breaking the deadlock of the dialectic of enlightenment and its accompanying defeatist politics by developing a dialectical theory that neither rests on pure negation nor falls into the totalising and reifying trap of orthodox Marxism. It is in the context of autoprohibition that one can rearticulate Adornos normative imperatives (specifically, the imperative to end suffering, and to recognise the truth-content of the body) without these imperatives being negated by the totalising dictates of the dialectic of enlightenment. The best way to redeem the important normative components of Adornos formulation of ethical subjectivity is to reject its underlying philosophical method and resituate it in another. I frame this methodological shift as one from constellations to autoprohibition, which allows for a more positive articulation of Adornos ethics; a plan for actively practising an ethical life vs. one premised on the rejection of participating in an unethical system (which Adornos ethics amounts to on my account).

Abstract:
MAN Diesel & Turbo recently developed a completely new gas turbine family for the first time in its history. The first product line contains both two-shaft and single-shaft gas turbines in the 6 – 7 MW class. The two-shaft engine was thoroughly tested at MAN’s gas turbine test center, and the first engine has been delivered to a launch customer. For MAN, it constitutes a technology platform that will produce further developments and new models in the coming years. The two-shaft design makes the new gas turbine an ideal mechanical drive for both turbo compressors and pumps. This gas turbine operates to suit the optimum duty point of the driven machine; both in a wide speed and power range. The two stage power turbine design allows for a wide speed range of 45 to 105% while maintaining high efficiency. For power generation a single-shaft version has been created by adding one additional stage to the two stage high pressure turbine. The compressor pressure ratio is 15, which is high enough for achieving the highest potential efficiency for both generator and compressor drive applications. Low pollutant emission levels are achieved with MAN’s DLN combustion technology. The gas turbine exhaust temperature is sufficiently high to reach high heat recovery rates in combined heat and power cycles. Another important feature of the new gas turbine is its unrestricted suitability for taking load quickly and rapid load changes. Service costs have also been significantly improved upon. MAN opted for a sturdy and modular gas turbine construction, while not compromising on efficiency. The objective is to extend service life and shorten down time occurrences. The modular package assembly process helps to reduce routine maintenance and repair time, and ultimately package downtime.

Abstract:
Introduction: Most of you are primarily interested in ground water, by that I mean well water. I don’t believe anyone here uses a surface water source for either product water or in plant drinking water or so you think. I have had some surprises from Florida ground water acting like surface water. When hunting for reasons it was explained that water perculating through your soil acts almost like a huge lake or river with varying levels of naturally occuring contaminants and man made pollutants present depending on location and magnitude of source. I have had trouble with this since during the depression when my family lived on a grove in Lake County. Our well was driven into the limestone aquifer and my father was firmly convinced this was the best water in the entire State of Florida. In retrospect, I can never recall tasting better water, however it was hard as a rock and during the “monsoons” that occasionally came our way the well water took on a brown color just like the lake and cat-tail swamp across the road. Wells driven into the limestone aquifer, even in the artisian region below impermiable cap rock may be subject to significant surface intrusion. Paper published with permission.

Abstract:
Being the only flying mammal, bats have evolved unique flight devices affording them high maneuverability and efficiency despite their low flight speeds. By selecting bats of three different ecological niches — a highly efficient fishing bat, a nimble insectivorous forager, and a large soaring bat of the ‘flying fox’ family — passive wing shapes can be demonstrated as capable of attaining very different aerodynamic performance characteristics. The aerodynamics of man-made equivalents to these wing shapes, using thin airfoils rather than skeleton and membrane construction, are studied both computationally through a lifting-line approach and experimentally with quasistatic wind tunnel data of ‘morphed’ and ‘unmorphed’ wing shapes. Results confirm that shape inspired by the larger soaring bat has higher lift-to-drag ratios, while that of the foraging bat maintains lift at higher angles of attack than the other wings. The advantages are more pronounced by morphing, increasing both lift coefficient and lift-to-drag ratios by up to 50% for certain wings. This is validated both numerically and in the Cornell University 4′×4′ wind tunnel. Analysis of these shapes provides the first phase of wing design for use on a morphing aircraft vehicle. In order to take greater advantage of vehicle morphing, wing shapes with camber and twist distributions unique from those found in nature will evolve to suit a man-made structure. In this way, a wing shape intended for cruise may extend its practicality into highly maneuverable operations through the use of wing morphing. Starting from the bat planform shapes, a series of optimizations determines the best camber and twist distributions for effective morphing. Given a fixed degree of shape change at any point along an airfoil based on mechanism constraints, improved morphing performance can be found compared to initial assumptions of the natural shape change. Heuristic optimization employing simulated annealing determines the required morphing shapes for increased performance, broadening the abilities of each wing shape by increasing parameters such as lift, rolling moment, and endurance.
