    In 1647 New Amsterdam (now known as New York) a rebellious young man, Brom, falls in love with the Town Councillor’s daughter, Tina. The Town Councillor tries to have Brom hanged but Brom is saved by the arrival of Peter Stuyvesant, the new Governor. When Stuyvesant turns into a dictator, Brom protests and is sent back to jail. Stuyvesant then tries to bring the country into a war. However, he abandons his plan when it is pointed out that history looks more kindly upon peace-makers than war-mongers. Meanwhile, Brom escapes from jail and all ends well. https://stageagent.com/shows/musical/2183/knickerbocker-holidayhttps://digitalcommons.otterbein.edu/production_1907-1958/1086/thumbnail.jp

    Cilj ovog ispitivanja bio j..: proučiti testnu - rctesnu pouzdanost tri tehnike koje koristimo u mjerenju opsega kretnji lumbosakralnog segmenta u sagitalnoj ravnini. Ispitivali ~mo slijedeće tehnike: a) modificirani modificirani Schoberov tcM (MMS), b) tehnika dvostrukog inklinomctra (Dl) i e) opseg pokreta u križima (BROM). MMS je ujedno i tehnika koja ovisi o istezanju kože jer se razmak izmedu dvije referentne točke mjeri pri stajanju i sagibanju. Dl i BROM mjerenja sc takoder vrše iz tih položaja, medutim sc u Dl tehnici jedan inklinomctar po~tavlja 1znad sakruma a drugi iznad Tl-1 12-LI u BROM tehnici jedini je inklinomctar postavlJen iznad Sl dok se istezanje mjeri pomoću klizne ručice. Izračunati su meduklasni koeficijenti korelacije (ICC) za dvije populacije. Sva tri načina mjcranja primjenjena su na 59 osoba (32 žene i 29 muškaraca u dobi od 17 do 71 jlOdinu) od čega su jedni bi li zdravi (36) a drugi su imali križobolju (23). ICC-i za flcksiju 1 ekstcnzij u bili su a) MMS = 0,92 i 0.92, b) DI = 0,96 i 0,96. tc e) BROM = 0,98 i 0,94. BROM tehnika mjerenja korištena /·e i za mje renje opsega kretnj i u križima u 117 s tudenata (SS žena i 59 muškaraca, u do )j od 17 do 40 godina). ICC-1 za tu sku pinu bili su 0,58 (stupnjevi) i 0,94 (centimetri). Osim toga MMS, Dl i BROM su primjcnjcni na 53 zdrava student<~ (25 žena i 28 muškaraca u dobi od 17 do 30 godina). ICC-i za fleksiju i ckstcnziju opsega kretnji za tu treću skupinu bili su a) MMS = 0.92 1 0,94, b) Dl = 0,95 i 0,87 i e) BROM = 0.85 (stupnjevi) i 0.95 (centimetri) kao i BROM = 0,83 (stupnjevi) i 0,98 (centimetri). Naši rezultati sugeriraju da se dobra pouzdanost može postići s bilo kOJim od ovih načina ispitivanja kretnji u lumbalnoj kraljcšnici.·n,e purpose of this invc~t igation was to s tudy test - rctcst re liability of three techniques used in the measurement of lumbosacral ROM in the sagital plane. The protoCClls that wc examined were a) modified modified Schoher (MMS) test, b) double Hlclinomctcr (Dl) technique. :.111d e) Back Range of Motion (BROM). The MMS is called a skin distraction technique because the distance between two reference points is measured in both standing and forward bcnding posturcs. Dl and BROM measurements are also made from these posturcs, however, in the a) Dl one inclinometcr is placed over the sacrum and :1 second is place over the TI2Ll junction and b) BROM a single inclinometer is placed over S l and skin distraction is measured with a sliding ann. lntraclass correlation coefficicnts (ICC) were computed with two populations. All three tests were administred to 59 subjects (32 female and 29 male, ages 17-71) differing in health (36 individuals without LBP and 23 with LBP). The I CC\u27~ for flcxion and extension ROM were a) MMS = 0.92 and O.IJ2, b) Dl = 0.96 and 0.96 and e) BROM = 0.91:1 an 0.94 (only degree measurements were made for group l usin the BROM). The BROM was also used to measure lumbosacral ROM on J 17 unive rsity students (58 female and 59 male, ages 17 to 40). The ICC\u27s for this administration on group ll subjects were 0.85 (degree) and 0.94 40). The ICC\u27s for this administration on group II subjects were 0.85 (degree) and 0.94 (cm). Subsequently the MMS, DI and BROM were administred to 53 healthy university students (25 female and 28 male, ages 17 to 30). The JCC\u27s for flexion and extension ROM for group . Ill subjects were a) MMS = 0.98 and 0.94, b) Dl = 0.95 and 0.87 and e) BROM = 0,85 (degrees) and 0.95 (cm) and BROM = 0.83 (degrees) and 0.98 (cm). Our research suggests that good reliability can be attained with any of these ROM protocols

    PLEASE NOTE Pages 72-73 are missing from the original copyThe present research attempted to identify those factors which predispose victims of severe motor vehicle accidents to develop PTSD, and explored the relationship between mental health and health care utilisation. A multistage probability sample of 167 New Zealand victims of motor vehicle accidents were included for analysis, the data being obtained as part of a larger nation-wide study looking at trauma and health care utilisation. Past research has identified factors which predispose the development of PTSD, such as prior psychological disorders, prior trauma, intensity, and extent of injury. The main statistical technique employed was multiple regression analysis, with the dependant variables being mental health and health care utilisation of the victims. Findings indicated that victims of MVAs are more likely to experience physical and mental health difficulties. The results showed a relationship between experience of trauma and the existence of PTSD, with victims of motor vehicle accidents suffering from more ill-health and PTSD-related symptoms than non-victims. Adverse life events, disclosure of feelings, extent of injury, and especially physical symptoms were all significant predictors of PTSD symptoms, however experience of previous trauma and intensity of the accident were not. A relationship between PTSD symptoms and health care utilisation also exists, with accident victims having more days confined to bed

    На основі реакцій електрофільної внутрішньомолекулярної циклізації розроблено препаративні методики синтезу відповідних бромідів і йодидів 3-бром(йод)метил-N-(4,5-дигідро-5-бром(йод)-метил-2-тіазоліл)тіазоло [3,2-b]піримідинію, що містять декілька конденсованих циклів. Встановлено основні фактори, які контролюють хемо-, регіо- і стереоселективність утворення нових гетероциклів. Підібрано умови для більш селективного одержання тіазоло- і тіазинопіримідинів з декількома циклами у своєму складі, які розширять можливості цілеспрямованого синтезу функціонально заміщених сполук заданої будови. On the basis of reaction electrophilic intermolecular cyclization preparation methods of synthesis of corresponding 3-brom(iod)methyl-N-(4,5 dihydro-5-brom(iod)methyl-2 thiazolil)thiazolo[3,2-b]pyrimidinium bromides and iodides that contains several condense cycles were elaborated. Main factors which govern the chemo-, regio- and stereoselectivity of formation new heterocycles were determine. Conditions in order to obtain thiazolo- and thiazinopyrimidines with several cycles in its structures which will increase opportunities of purposeful compounds synthes of certain structure were selected
