    Chang Chien 1853-1926 was a native of Nant ung Kiangsu In spite of the Various works on Chang Chien which testify to the significance of his role in modern China Chang Chien s Reform ideas is still not well-researched The purposes of this paper are firstly to analyze Chang Chien s Reform ideas systematically and clearly in the hope that it may become a useful reference for researchers on modern Chinese political thought and secondly to stimulate scholars for further research This paper depends more on basic source materials rather than second-hand data Among various source materials Chang Chien s Diary The Nine Records of Chang Chien and The Complete Work of Chang Chien are the most important Chang Chien s Reform ideas may be summarized as follows 1 taking notice of both economic basis and superstructure 2 elitism 3 pragmatism 4 concept of limited change 5 gradualism 6 golden means and 7 government by the peopl

    Les animaux, en particulier les chiens ont des capacités que l'homme à tous de suite remarqué et dont il a su en tirer le meilleur partie. Nous nous intéressons plus particulièrement aux chiens de services. Les premiers ont été les chiens pour aveugle, entraînés après la première guerre mondiale pour les soldats rendus aveugles. Et dans les trente dernières années sont apparus les chiens d'assistances entraînés pour aider au quotidien les personnes handicapés. D'un autre coté la technologie évolue afin d'amener toujours plus de confort à la personne. Ce papier a pour but de présenter nos travaux, qui sont de voir dans quelle mesure est-il possible d'inclure un robot dans la relation homme/animal en particulier homme/chien afin de combiner les qualités du chien et les qualités d'un robot. Les trois questions principales sont les suivantes: * Comment chien et robot peuvent-ils coopérer ? * Quels sont les canaux de communications ? * Un chien peut-il obéir à un robot ? Les enjeux techniques sont la récupération des informations provenant du chien et l'envoi d'instructions en stimulant plusieurs de ses sens. Nos travaux se déroulent dans le cadre du projet Cochise ANR-12-BLAN-012. L'association Handi'Chien, qui entraîne des chiens d'assistance, a mis en évidence certains cas où l'ajout d'un robot serait profitable à l'interaction entre le maitre et le chien. Une de nos premières réalisations sera celle d'un harnais équipé de capteurs et d'actionneurs afin que le maitre puisse interagir avec son chien à longue distance. Les perspectives de ces travaux sont la généralisation à d'autre type de chiens (chien de recherche, chien policier, ...) et la généralisation à d'autre animaux afin de mieux comprendre les interactions entre animales et systèmes robotisés

    The purpose of this research is to determine the optimum composition of solid lipid and liquid lipid in order to increase the penetration and effectiveness of Q10 as antioxidant in anti-aging cosmetics. Solid lipid and liquid lipid used in this study were cetyl palmitate and caprylic, which were combined to four (4) different ratios, namely 10:0; 9:1; 7:3 and 5:5. NLC Q10 in this study was produced by high shear homogenization method at 3400 rpm for 5 cycles and at 24000 for 1 cycle. The fourth formula was evaluated in term of characteristics, penetration and effectiveness. From the pH test , it was known that all formulas met the skin pH range (4.0-6.0). For the particle size test , all formulas (NLC 1 - NLC 4) were in the range from 269.13 to 354.77 nm with NLC 3 (7: 3) had the smallest particle size. The results of viscosity and surface tension test were also consistent with the theory, where the addition of liquid lipid reduced viscosity and surface tension of the system. The entrapment efficiency (EE) demonstrated the EE of NLC 1: 22.24%; NLC 2: 24.71%; NLC 3: 58.21% and NLC 4:36.94%. The penetration test showed all systems were able to penetrate the dermis layer at the 5th hour. NLC 3 (7:3) had more rapid onset, while the NLC Q10 with the ratio of lipid 9:1, had slower onset of action but can penetrate farther than the other NLC Q10 system. The result of Q10 effectiveness test showed NLC 2 (9:1) has lowest total macrophage (23.33) and very dense collagen observation (score : 4). From this research, it can be concluded that NLC 2 (9:1) had the most optimal lipid composition to increase the penetration and effectiveness of Q10 as an antioxidant in anti-aging cosmetics

    The Prairie du Chien - St. Peter Unconformity in Iowa

    Get PDF
    Unconformable relations between the Prairie du Chien and St. Peter formations have long been known in Minnesota, Wisconsin, Illinois and Missouri. The existence of this unconformity in Iowa, though long suspected, has never been demonstrated, or if it has been known to exist here, the fact has not been recorded. There is nothing in the reports of the State Geological Survey suggesting anything but conformable relations between the two formations

    On Chang Chienas Change from a Constitutional Monarchist to a Republican -- Political Thought with Flexibility as the Underlying Reason

    Chang Chien was born on July 1st in 1853 in Haimen Kiangsu and died on August 24th in 1926 in Nant ung Kiangsu In spite of his extraordinary enthusiasm in the promotion of a constitutional monarchy Chang Chien changed from a constitutional monarchist to a republican within less than one month after the 1911 Revolution Why did he change This is a significant topic for discussion So far lots of scholars have done research on this topic however the answers to this question have not been completely discovered yet My finding in this paper contends that though reasons leading to Chang Chien s change were complicated the underlying reason could be attributed to his political thought with flexibility that industry education and self-government were able to be achieved under whether a constitutional monarchy or a republic to save China It would be unfair to attribute Chang Chien s change only to his personal ambition to maintain his property his prestige or to attain political power Essentially nit was also due to his pragmatic attitude and his political thought with flexibility which allow him to work out industry education and self-government for China whether under a constitutional monarchy or a republi
