Impact of Trade Area Environment on Bank’s Comparative Advantages
2004
This paper analyzes the relationship between the comparative advantages of bank branches and the trade area environment. Bank branches are points of sale whose trade environment influences their activities and performance. Comparative advantages are defined, for each output mix, by the strict dominance of a production technology in a specific trade area over the production technologies of other environments. Using Shephard’s output distance functions on a sample of 728 bank branches, we compare the production technologies for different output mixes and different trade environments. We show that none of the production technologies strictly dominates the others and none of them is strictly do…
About adapting Conrad's prose to film
2021
On the example of Apocalypse Now by F. F. Coppola, Heart of Darkness by N. Roeg, The Duellists by R. Scott, The Shadow Line by A. Wajda, and Secret Sharer by P. Fudakowski, I would like to show that Joseph Conrad’s prose is a cinematic trap for film directors. This being so, I attempt to answer the question as to why it is so difficult to make a film of something that is so cinematic, when it is being read, and why film adaptations that closely follow Conrad’s narratives are less Conradian than films which are “merely” inspired by Conrad’s works.

Mūzikas platformas "Spotify" lietojuma motivācija Latvijā
2019
Mūsdienās, attīstoties tehnoloģijām, palielinās pieprasījums pēc kvalitatīva ierīcēs pieejamā satura. Viedtālruņi, planšetdatori, personīgie datori - šīs ir tikai dažas ierīces, kuras patērējam ikdienā un bez kurām mūsdienu pasaule vairs nav iedomājama. Tradicionālo radio arvien straujāk nomaina digitālais radio un mūzikas lietotnes. Mūzikas platforma "Spotify" ir viena no lielākajām šāda tipa aplikācijām tirgū, kas 2019.gadā pārsniedz 200 miljonus aktīvo lietotāju visā pasaulē. Bakalaura darba "Mūzikas platformas "Spotify" lietojuma motivācija Latvijā" mērķis ir noskaidrot, kāpēc Latvijas iedzīvotāji dažādās vecuma grupās izvēlas patērēt šo mūzikas platformu, nevis kādu citu līdzīgu digita…
Kulinaria w przestrzeni miasta : nowe trendy, nowe potrzeby mieszkańców
2015
The subject of this article is culinary trends observable in Polish cities during the past few years. They include both the rediscovered practices, directly related to the cultural (culinary) heritage of a particular area, and these which have become popular only recently. According to the author, characteristic culinary fads are: the promotion of local delicacies on a large scale, growing interest in shopping in farmers’ markets offering organic produce (bio-markets) and traditional goods, growing popularity of street food (including street food festivals and picnics), and organizing the so called “breakfast on the grass” events.

Actions différentielles de xéno-hormones alimentaires sur les organes reproducteurs, le foie et le tissu adipeux chez le rat femelle : aspects endocr…
2007
Differential actions of dietary xenohormones on the reproductive organs, the liver and the adipose tissue in the female rat : endocrine, metabolic and morphogenetic aspects regarding the carcinogenic process. Over the past décades, the incidence of hormone-dependent cancers has dramatically increased in Western countries as compared to Asian countries. Environmental and dietary compounds able to mimic and interfère with endogenous hormones, especially reproductive ones, may be involved and among these xenohormones. xenoestrogens (XE) are particularly pointed at. The objective of this thesis was to détermine the conséquences of chronic dietary exposure to phytoestrogens and chemical xenoestr…
