On the cardinality of almost discretely Lindelof spaces

2016

A space is said to be almost discretely Lindelof if every discrete subset can be covered by a Lindelof subspace. Juhasz et al. (Weakly linearly Lindelof monotonically normal spaces are Lindelof, preprint, arXiv:1610.04506 ) asked whether every almost discretely Lindelof first-countable Hausdorff space has cardinality at most continuum. We prove that this is the case under $$2^{<{\mathfrak {c}}}={\mathfrak {c}}$$ (which is a consequence of Martin’s Axiom, for example) and for Urysohn spaces in ZFC, thus improving a result by Juhasz et al. (First-countable and almost discretely Lindelof $$T_3$$ spaces have cardinality at most continuum, preprint, arXiv:1612.06651 ). We conclude with a few rel…

A short proof of a theorem of Juhasz

2011

Abstract We give a simple proof of the increasing strengthening of Arhangelʼskii Theorem. Our proof naturally leads to a refinement of this result of Juhasz.

How livestock grazing affects vegetation structures and small mammal distribution in the semi-arid Karoo

2000

In this study we investigated vegetation changes superimposed by grazing and their effect on small mammals in the Karoo (South Africa) on grazed farmland and an adjacent, 10-year livestock enclosure. Plains and drainage line habitats were compared by monitoring vegetation height and cover, and small mammal species composition and abundance along transects. Animals were captured by live trapping. Vegetation cover was low on the grazed compared to the ungrazed study site, but vegetation height did not differ. The number of small mammal individuals and the number of species captured was higher at the ungrazed study site. Two species of climbing rodents captured in the ungrazed drainage line we…

Soil microbial biomass and bacterial diversity in southern European regions vulnerable to desertification

2022

Abstract Soil functionality is strongly dependent on the soil microbiota, which in turn is affected by soil quality and climate. Among global change factors, desertification is the most threatening ecosystem change affecting southern Europe, but the effects on the soil microbiota are largely unknown. In this study, we investigated soil microbial biomass and bacterial diversity in regions of southern European countries (Spain, Portugal and Italy), most under desertification risk, and related to key soil chemical-physical indicators and land use. Soil microbial biomass was positively related, to soil organic carbon (SOC) but bacterial diversity was negatively correlated with it. pH was the mo…

Financing Small Businesses: From Venture Capital to Crowdfunding

2017

Abstract Startups and small businesses are facing many challenges in terms of financing their activities. These types of companies do not have the possibility to access capital market or to make IPO or to borrow money from banks like big, mature or well-known companies (who were at their beginnings startups or small businesses). They have to find different sources for financing their ideas/products/services that are in many cases very risky, hazardous or to ambitious. But, fortunately, the financing alternative for these companies have evolved during the last post crisis years. They have possibility to find some investors that are willing to invest in a non-name company by accessing crowdfu…

Escatologia occitana: riflessioni in margine ai racconti sull’Anticristo e sui Quindici segni del Giudizio

2014

Studio sul poema occitano Sens e razos d’una escriptura, un’opera composita che, commistionando e inglobando diverse ‘storie’ tratte da fonti differenti, prende sostanzialmente avvio da una traduzione-adattamento in versi abbastanza fedele del testo latino B dell’Evangelium Nicodemi1.

Prevalence of Angelman syndrome and Prader-Willi syndrome in Estonian children: sister syndromes not equally represented.

2006

In 2000-2004, we performed a focused search for individuals with Angelman syndrome (AS) and Prader-Willi syndrome (PWS) aiming to establish the prevalence data for the individuals born between 1984 and 2004 in Estonia. All persons with probable AS or PWS (n = 184) were studied using the DNA methylation test. Individuals with abnormal methylation were all further tested by chromosomal and FISH analysis, and if necessary for uniparental disomy and UBE3A gene mutation. Nineteen cases with abnormal methylation test result were identified. Seven of them had AS, including six (85.7%) due to 15q11-13 deletion and one paternal UPD15. Twelve subjects had PWS: 4 (33%) 15q11-13 deletions, 6 (50%) mate…

Działalność Związku Polskiej Młodzieży Ewangelickiej Województwa Śląskiego w latach 1927–1939

2022

Problematyce aktywizacji i wychowania młodzieży ewangelickiej w okresie międzywojennym poświęcano wiele uwagi, ponieważ stanowiła ona o przyszłości Kościoła, społeczeństwa i odrodzonego narodu. Celem artykułu jest próba uszczegółowienia – z perspektywy pedagogicznej – głównych obszarów działalności stowarzyszenia „Związku Polskiej Młodzieży Ewangelickiej Województwa Śląskiego”. Scharakteryzowano uwarunkowania powstania i rozwoju związku, uwzględniając zakres jego oddziaływania patriotyczno-religijnego, kulturalno-oświatowego i społecznego, przygotowującego młodzież do pełnienia ważnych obowiązków religijnych, społeczno-oświatowych i narodowych w swym otoczeniu. Omówiono również założenia ew…
