OPPORTUNIT IES FOR DEVELOP ING NEW FORMS OF ACCOMMODATION IN THE BRASOV TOURIST DESTINATION

The accommodation units are a necessary component of tourist destination development, and the quality and diversification of the accommodation services offered will influence the type of tourists who want to visit the destination. The main purpose of the qualitative research presented in this paper was to study the possibility of introducing a new form of accommodation in Brasov as tourist destination and, more precisely, the extent to which "hotel apartments" are among the tourists’ present and future options. The paper also analyses aspects regarding the typology of the accommodation units, classification possibilities and the advantages that the introduction and development of these forms of accommodation in the tourist destination of Brasov could bring

Some Socio-Economic Effects of Labour Migration on the Sending Country. Evidence from Romania

The paper presents the recent labor migration flows and trends and the impacts of these movements on Romanian economic and social life. After Romania joined the EU, the travel of Romanians inside the EU is totally free and they fructified this opportunity. There are important economic consequences of this movement. In the paper we analyze the demographic consequences, since category that emigrated for economic reasons in the last years is composed of youngsters (around 30). There are also important economic consequences on financial aspects and life quality of Romanians, since the volume of remittances was about 7 billion euros in 2007. There is also a social impact particularly on the lives of migrant families. The most problematic issue is the temporary abandonment of minors by their labour migrant parents, and that forced authorities to formulate policies to monitor the situation

Achievement of a Fortifying Product based on Apples, Quinces and Sea Buckthorn

The aim of the research was to achieve a fortifying product Apple, Quince and Sea Buckthorn Nectar rich in antioxidants (vitamin C, β-carotene) and dietary fibers (cellulose, pectic substances) from fruit. In the experiments were used fruit (apples, quinces and sea buckthorn) with a high content of these nutrients. The antioxidants are chemical substances that inhibit, decompose or prevent forming of free radicals or other substances that induce cancerogenesis. Also, dietary fibers are another group of natural compounds with an important role in the prevention of the digestive diseases. In the experiments were used biochemical methods for analysis of fruit and processed products (determination of soluble dry substance, glucides, proteins, lipids, mineral elements, total acidity, vitamin C, β-carotene, cellulose, pectic substances etc.). Also were performed microbiological analysis and sensorial analysis for processed products. In order to obtain the product Apple, Quince and Sea Buckthorn Nectar, four variants of experiments were carried out at the laboratory level. Following the sensorial and biochemical analyses, the optimum variant of the product Apple, Quince and Sea Buckthorn Nectar was selected, namely the variant V3 in which the ratio apple puree and quince puree was 1:1 and the percentage of added sea buckthorn juice was 3%

Development of a Device for Displaying on an Additional Screen the Parameters Read from the Vehicle’s on Board Computer

Present paper aims to present the steps of developing a prototype used for the display of several functional parameters which does not normally appear on the dashboard of an automobile. Data is collected from the vehicle CAN bus, follow-up processed with a MCP2515 microcontroller and a ATMEGA328P and finally displayed on a color touchscreen. The prototype is a Plug&Play device, which can easily be connected to the vehicle’s OBD2 socket, from where the data is collected. The parameters are shown in an interactive manner, by displaying one or multiple parameters at a time, on a single page

Omecamtiv mecarbil in chronic heart failure with reduced ejection fraction, GALACTIC‐HF: baseline characteristics and comparison with contemporary clinical trials

Aims: The safety and efficacy of the novel selective cardiac myosin activator, omecamtiv mecarbil, in patients with heart failure with reduced ejection fraction (HFrEF) is tested in the Global Approach to Lowering Adverse Cardiac outcomes Through Improving Contractility in Heart Failure (GALACTIC‐HF) trial. Here we describe the baseline characteristics of participants in GALACTIC‐HF and how these compare with other contemporary trials. Methods and Results: Adults with established HFrEF, New York Heart Association functional class (NYHA) ≥ II, EF ≤35%, elevated natriuretic peptides and either current hospitalization for HF or history of hospitalization/ emergency department visit for HF within a year were randomized to either placebo or omecamtiv mecarbil (pharmacokinetic‐guided dosing: 25, 37.5 or 50 mg bid). 8256 patients [male (79%), non‐white (22%), mean age 65 years] were enrolled with a mean EF 27%, ischemic etiology in 54%, NYHA II 53% and III/IV 47%, and median NT‐proBNP 1971 pg/mL. HF therapies at baseline were among the most effectively employed in contemporary HF trials. GALACTIC‐HF randomized patients representative of recent HF registries and trials with substantial numbers of patients also having characteristics understudied in previous trials including more from North America (n = 1386), enrolled as inpatients (n = 2084), systolic blood pressure < 100 mmHg (n = 1127), estimated glomerular filtration rate < 30 mL/min/1.73 m2 (n = 528), and treated with sacubitril‐valsartan at baseline (n = 1594). Conclusions: GALACTIC‐HF enrolled a well‐treated, high‐risk population from both inpatient and outpatient settings, which will provide a definitive evaluation of the efficacy and safety of this novel therapy, as well as informing its potential future implementation

Dans la littérature portant sur l'empowerment en travail social et sur l'empowerment en médiation, l'intervention du travailleur social est-elle compatible avec un modèle théorique de médiation?

Résumé: De plus en plus de travailleurs sociaux interviennent en tant que médiateurs. Cet engouement pour la prévention et règlement des différends est confirmé par l'impressionnant choix de cours offerts sur ce sujet par l'Ordre des Travailleurs Sociaux du Québec. Or, peu d'études s'intéressent aux problématiques que peuvent rencontrer ces professionnels dans leurs interventions comme médiateurs. Cet essai vise à décrire certains biais pouvant survenir dans ces deux domaines à partir d'une notion commune, soit l'empowerment. Cette même notion sera mise en relation de manière conceptuelle dans le contexte de la médiation et du travail social. L'empowerment a ainsi été abordé à partir de plusieurs facteurs, selon lesquels on a pu déterminer quelles sont les similitudes et les divergences de ce concept entre les deux domaines . Les réponses développées pour chacune des sous-thématiques pertinentes ont permis de fournir un début de réponse à la question de recherche et d'amorcer une réflexion sur les biais possibles du travailleur social intervenant en tant que médiateur transformatif ou évaluatif.||Abstract: More and more social workers operate as mediators. This growing interest for conflict prevention and resolution is confirmed by the wide range of courses offered by the Ordre des Travailleurs Sociaux du Québec pertaining to this subject. However, there is a lack of studies that relate to the obstacles those professionals may encounter through their interventions as mediators. This essay aims to describe possible biases that may occur in such situations. The concept of empowerment will serve as a common link between mediation and social work, since it is a popular subject for authors in both fields. This common notion has been analyzed from a conceptual standpoint in the context of mediation and social work. Empowerment was thus considered through multiple factors, from which similarities and divergences could be discerned. The conclusions reached from individual sub-themes developed through the essay enabled us to provide a partial answer to the central question, while initiating a reflection on biases that are prone to affect social workers practicing transformative or evaluative mediation
