He systematically integrates elements of the rich Bulgarian folklore into his music. His style also exhibits influences from the contemporary Western European compositional tradition. The mastery of his craft shines in the use of aleatoric technique, cluster harmonies, and polyphonic elements, uniquely combined with the rhythmic, melodic, and modal intricacies of the Bulgarian folklore. This book examines Spassov s songs for women s choir, in the Bucolics From The Pirin Region collection, and how they relate to their original folk versions. Areas of study include a brief examination of Bulgarian musical folklore in relation to the uniqueness and inter-regional influences of the rhythm, meter, mode, melody and text, and an analysis of the musical scores. This analysis should provide evidence that Bucolics From The Pirin Region are examples of late-twentieth-century musical art that remain typically Bulgarian and preserve the individuality of the traditional folklore, and should be particularly useful to conductors, music educators and anyone else interested in multicultural choral music. 120 pp. Englisch.

This item is printed on demand - it takes 3-4 days longer - Neuware -Audit sampling has been an issue over the years and very little academic literature exist to shed more light about the utilization of this concept during auditing practices. Therefore,the two approaches to audit sampling; statistical and nonstatistical have been examined in this book. The overall purpose of the book is to explore the current extent at which these concepts are utilized by auditors during auditing practices. The book also seeks to achieve two additional purposes; the first is to find out whether auditors utilize different sampling techniques when auditing SME s and big companies and the second is to find out some common selection methods that are used by auditors for selecting statistical or nonstatistical audit samples during audit sampling practices. Based on the empirical findings obtained, an audit sampling model has been proposed. It is recommended that auditors should use this model as a guide not only in Sweden but also in other countries as the model will be a useful tool to assist auditors for proper accumulation of audit evidence. Thus, this book is particularly useful to auditors, trainee accountants and to undergraduate, master and Ph.D students 80 pp. Englisch.

Taschenbuch. Condición: Neu. This item is printed on demand - it takes 3-4 days longer - Neuware -Northern Uganda has seen an atrocious war mainly prosecuted by the rebel Lord's Resistance Army (LRA) against the Government of Uganda. The brunt of the war has largely been borne by civilians including through abductions, killings, looting and destruction of property including burning down of entire villages. Young children have been abducted and used variously by the LRA to carry looted items, fight as child soldiers and young girls used as sex slaves. Several attempts including fighting, peace talks and amnesty offers did not yield a comprehensive solution to the problem. This book provides an analysis of the situation with a particular focus on the use of transitional justice, not only as a means of dealing with the past in a post-conflict situation but also as an instrument ending an ongoing conflict. Three mechanisms; trials at the International Criminal Court, amnesty and local traditional justice and reconciliation mechanisms are analyzed. This book should be useful to practitioners and academics in the field of transitional justice, mediators, as well as anyone else interested in the subject. 116 pp. Englisch.

Taschenbuch. Condición: Neu. This item is printed on demand - it takes 3-4 days longer - Neuware -Until recently, Value-at-Risk (VaR) has been a widely used risk measure in portfolio optimization. The recently frequent bank failures show that VaR fail to account for losses caused by rare events such as the global financial crisis, thereby questioning its reliability and credibility as a measure of risk. Alternatively, previous work concurs that Conditional Value-at-Risk (CVaR) is a coherent tail risk measure, and has established the superiority of CVaR over traditional measures of risk from a theoretical standpoint. This book investigates the reasons that render CVaR superior to other risk measures from an empirical perspective. We develop a theoretical model that solves the mean-risk portfolio optimization problem within a unified framework for all three risk measures - variance, VaR and CVaR. We test our model empirically using financial data on return indices over a period covering the financial crisis. Our results support the theoretical predictions. The mean-CVAR framework respects diversification and can be applied to multi-model returns, unlike mean-variance and mean-VaR which are only valid when returns are normal. CVaR is the most conservative measure of risk. 88 pp. Englisch.

The project looks at how language can help in reforming children in post-conflict situation, what language should be given attention and at what time The academic instructional language of a child is as important as the way he assimilates academically. The use of interactive language as against academic language in the first years of a child will prepare him appropriately for school setting; familiarize him with the academic environment in the language he is familiar to will be one of the points discussed in this project. Likewise, the project also points out ways language can be a major rehabilitating tool to bring back depressed, hopeless and marginalized children in refugee camp. In addition, it covers what the government and NGOs are contributing, what they can do to facilitate successful learning environment for children in their first years of academic. 60 pp. Englisch.

This item is printed on demand - it takes 3-4 days longer - Neuware -The Challenges facing Small and Medium Enterprises (SMEs) in Obtaining Credit in Ghana, highlights the issues facing Ghana's SMEs in their quest to accessing loans from financial institutions to undertake various business activities all in the name of creating jobs and the ultimate goal of helping to reduce poverty. There are financial institutions that are willing to provide credit facilities to SMEs but Ghanaian SMEs are not able to meet the requirements of these financial institutions even though they are really in need of the loan. Chief among the requirements demanded by these financial institutions is collateral. The nature of collateral in this part of the world is mostly landed property, which most SMEs cannot provide to cover the amount they really need. As a result, some of these SMEs settle for an amount far less than what they truly require to really drive their business agenda. This book thus takes a look at these challenges from the perspective of the Ghanaian SME operators. 68 pp. Englisch.

This item is printed on demand - it takes 3-4 days longer - Neuware -A good transportation network can be regarded as the prerequisite for development process and its necessity is more obvious for rural areas. Reliable access from villages to markets and other social services is an essential component for ensuring the quality of life for villagers. Atulia Union is located in the south western part of Bangladesh where shrimp farming is the principal occupation of people, followed by agriculture. Rural transports are vital for the movement of agricultural products and shrimp from the production farm to the marketplace. Many poor villages do not have all-weather road access and are often cut off for long periods during the wet seasons. This acts as a constraint for marketing the local products and brings poor monetary return to producers. This study has identified the major impediments of rural transportation and development potentials of the system which could foster over all rural development. It has confirmed that appropriate and location specific need for network improvement and extension, construction of new infrastructure, and enlacing supply of different transport mode are the major issues to be addressed for achieving desired development goals. 88 pp. Englisch.

Players may exhibit some symptoms of computer rage such as yelling at the computer, pounding at the keyboard, slapping the speakers, and worst of all venting their anger on other people. In short, aggressive behavior tends to be evident. Filipino nurses have been established as one of the most in-demand and competitive nurses in the world, and is often praised for their warm and caring attitude to their patients. Proliferation of internet café that offers violent games is pleasing to the eyes of young adolescents particularly the nursing students. Continuous playing of these violent games are threatening which may adversely affects the behavior of the students nurses especially when they are attending to their patients and if this threat continues the TLC (Tender Loving Care) traits of Filipino nurses will be compromised. The main focus of this study is to determine the effects of violent computer games to the behavior of selected nursing students of San Pablo City and the result of the study was used by the researcher in formulating a health teaching program. 92 pp. Englisch.

This item is printed on demand - it takes 3-4 days longer - Neuware -The ubiquitous presence of transparent exopolymer particles (TEP) in various water sources of membrane-based treatment plants and their ability to adhere to surfaces (high stickiness) and to initiate biofilm formation have led some experts to suggest that TEP may have a major role in organic and biological fouling of membrane systems. This paper aims discuss the latest knowledge on the possible link of TEP to membrane fouling, assess the currently available techniques to identify/measure TEP and how this can be applied in membrane fouling studies. Staining with Alcian blue is so far the most feasible way to assess TEP in water and in fouled membrane samples. Alcian blue was found to react specifically with acidic polysaccharides based on tests with model polysaccharides (neutral and anionic) and protein substances at pH 2.5. Under this condition, the relative concentration of TEP in water can be measured spectrophotometrically at 787 nm wavelength. The current TEP method is also an indirect measure of anion density of TEP, an indication of how surface-active and sticky these substances are; thus, a good indicator of their fouling potential in membrane systems. 112 pp. Englisch.

The writer perceived the problems of poor pass rates in terms of multiple causations rather than single causation. After conducting a case study in Masvingo province, which the biggest of Zimbabwe s ten provinces, the writer conduced that the causes of poor pass rates in Zimbabwe s rural day primary and secondary schools fall under four major areas which the writer is going treat is as separate chapters, namely: Lack of resources material in Zimbabwe s rural day school and brutality unleashed on Zimbabwe teachers by politicians and school authorities and employers since 2000. Poor pass rates in Zimbabwe s rural day primary schools cause for concern to all stakeholders in education like: Parents, Students, teachers, government and the employers. In the final chapter of the book, the writer will discuss the theoretical perspectives of the cause of low pass rates in schools with particular reference to the 5 systems theory and Maslow s needs hierarchy as they apply to all the causes discussed under the four chapters. 116 pp. Englisch.

It cannot be denied that English is deeply entrenched in the country s education curricula, a sort of lingua-franca in our multi-lingual society and the leading global language too. Given this scenario, it is evident that the resolution of the language question is not likely to be a simple either English or indigenous languages affair. It will be a very complex issue well beyond the foreseeable future. Yet, due to the important ideational and interpersonal function of language it is critical that as a people and as a nation Zimbabweans continuously engage with this all-important question in an attempt to begin to contribute towards its eventual resolution. This study therefore briefly examines the language situation with special focus on Shona in education in general but more specifically in the field of research. 80 pp. Englisch.

Accordingly, Ethiopia has adopted ethnic based federalism since 1991 which enabled some ethnic groups to establish their own sub-national governments (regions). Yet this system hardly became attractive for internal national minorities (i.e. an ethnic groups who forms majority in one region but minorities in another region) since the procedure of protection controlled by regional majorities and high degree of systematic assimilation. This book, therefore, examines the procedure for recognition and protection of internal minorities under Ethiopian constitutional system and how the absence of constitutional protection affects cultural, linguistic, and political rights of such groups by giving special emphasis on the case of Raya Oromo in Tigray region. It scrutinizes the issue in light with international law, Ethiopian constitution and regional constitution. The analysis would help as insight for political scientist, government officials and constitutional drafter s to conduct further research and use it as input. 120 pp. Englisch.

This item is printed on demand - it takes 3-4 days longer - Neuware -Polymers and composites are usually exposed to influence of external factors (temperature, humidity, mechanical loading, etc.) which cause a time-dependent change of their structure and properties due to physical and chemical transformations. Thus, predicting mechanical and thermophysical properties of composite materials, it is necessary to consider results of research about structure and properties time-dependent variability of polymer resins under the influence of external factors. The aim of the work was to establish features of moisture absorption and to estimate influence of the absorbed moisture on mechanical and thermophysical properties of epoxy-based nanocomposites. Elastic characteristics of NC were experimentally investigated and described using Halpin-Tsai and Norris micromechanical models considering morphological features of filler particles. Viscoelastic behavior of epoxy resin and NC was analyzed after long-term moisture influence by means of linear integral equation of Boltzmann-Volterra considering a principle of moisture-time analogy. Application of thermomechanical analysis allowed establishing basic regularities for glass transition temperature for NC. 60 pp. Englisch.

To introduce maximally effective car-based countermeasures it is important to understand which injuries are most common and from which car parts they originate. It is also important to focus on the most severe injuries resulting in disability or death. The aim of this thesis was therefore to determine priorities for and evaluate the potential of car-mounted safety systems designed to mitigate severe upper-body injuries (including disability and fatality) of pedestrians in car crashes. While current pedestrian countermeasures focus on the head-to-hood impact, this thesis recommends extending countermeasures to the lower part of the windshield and the A-pillars, and adding brain and chest injury assessment for both hood and windshield areas to effectively minimize disabling and fatal injuries. . If the deployable countermeasures are combined with autonomous braking in an integrated system the most effective system is achieved. Auto-brake systems should, in high speed impacts, aim to reduce speeds to where the secondary countermeasures can effectively mitigate injury. 72 pp. Englisch.

Using data collected from hundreds of professional fights, I examine the effects of 1st and 2nd round performance together on 3rd round performance and on risky behavior, in bouts lasting three rounds. Using probability logistic regressions to calculate performance, and linear regressions to estimate risk taking, we find that 1st and 2nd round performance together have little effect on third round performance. However, a good (bad) performance in the first 2 rounds reduces (increases) risk-taking behavior in the third round or changes in risk-taking behavior in the 3rd round, relative to the first two rounds. We also examine the rare cases of rematches, and find that while performance in the original fight is a good predictor of the outcome and performance in a rematch, the actual outcome of the original fight is not. That is to say that fighters who did well, but lost (by bad luck) in the original match are more likely to win the second match. 60 pp. Englisch.

These organizations played a threefold role based on the monitoring, intervention and assistance regarding the reconciliation and reconstruction process. To some extent, their strategies contributed to activate the reconstruction and the reconciliation process after nearly a decade of instability caused by the war in the country. However, in spite of the combined efforts of these actors, the conflict persists and continues to take innocent human lives, leaving the survivors affected by hostilities and violations of human rights that they have experienced. In conclusion, the book shows that the role of international organizations has not been fully explored, but it is equally clear that without their collective involvement the situation would in all likelihood have been much worse today. 72 pp. Englisch.
