This report provides a new theoretical measure for the nonlocality of an arbitrary three-qubit pure state system similar to the method used to describe tripartite entanglement, resulting in a concept referred to as residual nonlocality, η. This report also investigates the special cases that can be encountered when using η. This method assigns a numerical value between 0 and 1 in order to indicate the degree of nonlocality between three-qubits. It was discovered that η has the characteristic of being consistently larger or equal to the value found for the residual entanglement which can provide further insights regarding the relation between nonlocality and entanglement. / I rapporten föreslås och analyseras ett nytt teoretisk mått för ickelokalitet hos tre-kvantbitsystem på ett liknande sätt till metoden som används för tredelad sammanflätningar. Detta ger en koncept som vi har valt att benämna residual ickelokalitet η. Rapporten undersöker också specialfall som kan påträffas när man använder η. Metoden som läggs fram i rapporten ger ett numeriskt värde mellan 0 och 1 för att visa graden av ickelokalitet mellan kvantbitarna. Vår undersökning visar att η kommer under alla sammanhang vara större eller lika med den graden av tredelad sammanflätning i samma system vilket kan ge en bättre förståelse av relationen mellan sammanflätning och ickelokalitet.

Title: Influence of buoyancy dumb-bells on load intensity during shallow water aerobic Objectives: The aim of this theses was to compare the heart rate to several variants during 14 minutes head-out aquatic exercise (with simultaneous legs and arms actions and with simultaneous legs and arms actions using buoyancy dumb-bells). 8 females, clinically healthy and with a regular level of physical activity in age between 25-60 years (age 42 ± 11,4 years) were studied. The other aim of this theses was to compare the heart rate during rest on land and rest in water during shallow water aerobic in an upright position with water level to shoulder depth. Methods: We monitored heart rate changes during 14 minutes head-out aquatic exercise by Sport Tester S610i. The results of the tests were analyzed and evaluated with Polar Precision Performance software. Chi-squared test was used to examine the average difference to heart rate during tests. Results: We found non-significant increases on load intensity during test with using buoyancy dumb-bells. Average heart rate during rest in water showed decreases by 13 beats per minute. Keywords: buoyancy dumb-bells, load intensity, heart rate, shallow water aerobic

Granulite-facies orthogneisses of the Mesoproterozoic Albany-Fraser Orogen from the locality of Bremer Bay, in southwestern Australia, record at least three phases of widespread, pervasive NW- and NE-trending bidirectional extension that alternate with shortening and/or shear related structures. Crustal extension occurred ca. 1180 Ma, based on SHRIMP U–Pb zircon geochronology of melts generated during deformation, which coincided with Stage II (1215-1140 Ma) of the Albany-Fraser Orogeny, a period of NW-directed contraction. Eight different deformation phases can be recognized in the Bremer Bay area: (1) formation of a pervasive migmatitic fabric, defined by alternating leucosomes and melanosomes, parallel to the main compositional layering, and axial planar to localized isoclinal folds of cm-wide melt bands; (2) first bidirectional extension phase, which formed cm-scale square boudins of mafic layers parallel to the main migmatitic fabric; (3) formation of open to isoclinal, upright to overturned, SW-plunging, NW-verging m-scale folds of early square and rectangular boudins and dominant migmatitic foliation; (4) renewed coeval NE- and NW-directed extension that produced intermediate (< 1 meter to a few meters) boudins of the migmatitic fabric and compositional layering; (5) formation of regional-scale, NW-verging, SW-plunging overturned folds of all previous structures; (6) third phase of bidirectional extension that formed large, decameter-scale boudins of the migmatitic fabric; (7) late folding phase that resulted in the formation of m-scale open to tight, SW-plunging, upright to moderately overturned, NW-verging folds; and (8) fracturing related to the intrusion of dominantly N-NW- and N-NE-trending intermediate and felsic few cm- to few dm-wide pegmatite veins. Melt generation was concurrent with all stages of deformation. The Albany-Fraser Orogen is reinterpreted as a diachronous orogen, resulting from the closure of the asymmetrically shaped ocean basin between the West Australian and Mawson cratons, which widens considerably from NE to SW along the length of the orogenic front. Subduction on the western side of the orogen was the driving force for NW-directed collision during Stage II of the orogeny. Slab breakoff and orogenic collapse following closure of an intracratonic ocean basin could account for the multiple phases of bidirectional extension, granulite facies metamorphism and pervasive partial melting throughout deformation. / text

Incidental bycatch in gillnets is a substantial threat to small cetaceans. Using Acoustic Deterrent Devices, “pingers”, have successfully reduced bycatch of harbour porpoises in gillnets. However, seals can use pingers as “dinner-bells” to easier find gillnets in order to raid and destroy them, further aggravating the existing conflicts between seals and coastal fisheries. Therefore, in the present study, the efficiency of two alleged “seal-safe” pingers, an experimental Banana pinger “SSB” and a Future Oceans F70 pinger “FO”, in deterring harbour porpoises from the vicinity of gillnets and thereby reducing bycatch in commercial gillnet fisheries, was tested. This was done by deploying click detectors, “C-PODs”, recording Detection Positive Minutes per hour, at each end of gillnets, provided with the two pinger types or no pingers at all. Bycatch instances were recorded into logbooks by participating fishermen and verified using video footage from on-board video cameras. Results showed that video monitoring was a reliable method for verifying the number of bycatches of porpoises and seals, but not seabirds, recorded in the fishermen’s logbooks. The experimental SSB pingers and the FO pingers significantly reduced porpoise presence, measured as Detection Positive Minutes per hour in the vicinity of the nets, compared to gillnets without pingers. However, the sample size was too small to yield a significant result regarding the bycatch reducing efficiency and dinner bell effect of the experimental pingers. Nevertheless, bycatch trends suggest that pingers did in fact reduce porpoise bycatch. Although both successful, FO pingers were slightly more efficient in deterring porpoises than SSB pingers. The SSB pinger sounds had bigger directionality variations than the FO pinger, which may have affected its deterrent effects. Therefore, additional trials are needed to further investigate this aspect.

In this dissertation, I examine extracurricular music of American universities between the two World Wars and consider it as an indicator of the idealization of collegiate life. Interwar discourse at American universities demonstrated the two contrasting ideals of the older collegiate model and the more recent university model. The collegiate model was associated with ideals related to character building, a sense of community, and a common curriculum, whereas the university model was associated with social utility, research, and liberal culture. Proponents of the collegiate model idealized an older collegiate life in America. One version of this idealized collegiate life captured the popular imagination of Americans in the late nineteenth century – the vision of students developing their social skills in the extracurriculum at the expense of their intellect in the official curriculum. Various members of the university community at Stanford University, The University of Texas, and Yale University promoted this idyllic view of collegiate life in the extracurriculum. Marching bands, glee clubs, and bell instruments were thought to transmit collegiate values of community and character building. The music’s adaptation to modern trends and values, however, reveal that it did not fully adhere to an idealized image of pre-modern college life. The university communities believed that music (and sound in general) with its ability to reach listeners’ memories and emotions, was unique in its access to interior subjectivity. This belief guided university administrators to use campus sounds to instill school spirit and nostalgia. Yet the failure of certain audio memorabilia, namely the Talking Page of the Onondagan yearbook of Syracuse University and The Cactus in Sound of The University of Texas, leads us to question this assumption of special interior access. Administrators, students, and alumni all had a hand in using sounds to elicit these strong sentiments toward their university, which administrators hoped would foster increased financial support / text

The topic of Prehispanic llama caravan trade has been widely examined in the archaeology of Northern Chile and Norwestern Argentina. Comparatively speaking, in Peru the topic has been previously explored only minimally. Recently, research based on bone isotope analyses from sites in the North Coast of Peru is adding to our knowledge of Prehispanic camelid herd management systems. The present article aims at advancing yet a different case of camelidherd exploitation, this time from the South Coast of Peru. This interpretation stems from the first evidence of ceramic bells from Huayuri, a Late Prehispanic Nasca settlement (1100-1532 AD) with a clear Late Horizon occupation (1470 – 1532 AD), and is complemented with information of other examples from the region not formally reported before. After presenting the context of the findings, I propose these ceramic bells were llama bells. As suggested by ethnographiesof llama (Lama glama) herders, the presence of these bells in the domestic area of the site strongly suggests a direct involvement of some of Huayuri’s domestic units in the organization of the caravans. At a more general level, descriptions from colonial documentation and the regional distributions of additional bells, support the idea a northsouth axis of circulation crossing the deserts of Ica and Nasca, from Tacaraca in Ica to Arequipa to the south of Nasca. / En los Andes, el tema del tráfico caravanero prehispánico ha sido ampliamente estudiado especialmente en el norte de Chile y en el noroeste argentino. En el Perú, en cambio, las investigaciones arqueológicas tradicionalmente llegaron sólo a esbozar aspectos muy generales de los modos de explotación de los rebaños de camélidos. Recientemente, varios investigadores han aportado nuevas propuestas sobre el modo de tenencia de camélidos durante la época prehispánica en la Costa Norte, los que se basan en buena cuenta en estudios isotópicos de colecciones óseas. Este artículo pretende aportar al tema añadiendo detalles sobre otro caso prehispánico diferente de tenencia de camélidos, esta vez de la Costa Sur peruana. El punto de partida de esta reconstrucción son las primeras evidencias arqueológicas de campanas cerámicas de la cuenca norte del río Grande de Nasca, la que se complementa con información de ejemplares adicionales provenientes de otros sitios de la región. Este grupo inicial de campanas proviene del sitio arqueológico Ciudad Perdida de Huayuri, en la quebrada de Santa Cruz, y se asocia particularmente al Horizonte Tardío (1470-1532 AD). Luego de un análisis del contexto en las que se encontró, sostengo que las campanas cerámicas se usaron como campanas de llamas (Lama glama) o cencerros, y a la luz de información etnográfica, su presencia en Huayuri sugiere la participación de las unidades domésticas en la organización del tráfico caravanero. A un nivel interpretativo más general, y a la luz de documentos coloniales tempranos y de la distribución espacial de los ejemplares adicionales, se sugiere la existencia de un eje de circulación norte-sur a lo largo de la costa atravesando el desierto de Nasca e Ica, quizá extendiéndose desde Ica al norte hasta Arequipa al sur.

The main task of diploma is creating a sacral object and community centre of Salesians in Brno-Líšeň. A construction of the Salesian complex started in 1998. As a result, the whole complex of institution got to the district of Brno-Lisen with the help of the endowment fund for youth. The Congregation focuses on the methods of educating the youth of Don Bosco, the father and teacher of the youth, the first head of the Salesian. The creation of a church is a very desirable step for the Salesian Center, because Masses are currently being celebrated in the existing building in the gym, where not everything is needed to carry out of the event. The church should be developed in the vicinity of Salesian centre and has to be available for a wide range of societies. The architectural project includes the designing of church, parish building and enviroment. The form and view of the complex suit to this environmental area and react on its entire structure. The object consists of two forms, which are connected by the horizontal communication. In the middle of the Salesian complex, there is a semi-open area. The first object is a church with a capacity of approximately 200 hundred visitors, the second object is a parish building, which perform the functions of administration with multifunction space for the exhibitions, aparmtments and offices for its employees.
