The article is a review of the main problems of ancient archeology of the Northern black sea region and is structured on a chronological basis. First, we consider the problems of the early period of Greek colonization–VII–V centuries BC. the Main research topics are the causes and nature of colonization. A brief history of concepts – trade and agricultural, and their development in domestic historiography is given. Various views on these problems of researchers are given. A debatable global problem is the Greek-barbarian contacts, one of the aspects of which is the degree of influence of Greek and barbarian cultures on each other. According to tradition, the influence of Greek culture on the natives is significant. But the essence of the term "Hellenization" remains unclear. The question is raised: what is meant by this term? The second side of the issue is the presence of representatives of the local population in ancient centers. The presence of representatives of the local population in ancient cities is determined by the finds of stucco ceramics in urban layers and the presence of burials on Greek necropolises with deviations from the Greek funeral rite. The main question is what was the status of this population.A global problem of the ancient archeology of the Northern black sea region is the study of agricultural Chora. The main problems are the presence of a choir in borysthenes and Olbia, the reasons for the desolation of the Olbia choir in the V century BC. Land belonging to the state – "Tsar's Hora".The problem of the Hellenistic era-IV–II centuries BC. is the crisis of the III century BC. e., reflected in the decline of monetary circulation. The main research area is to identify the causes of the crisis.Problems of Roman times – the Roman Tauric limes, the presence of Roman military forces on the Bosporus. Periodization of the history of the Northern black sea region of the ancient era. ; Статья представляет собой обзор основных проблем античной археологии Северного Причерноморья и структурирована по ...

The author in this article the analyzes the role of Constitutional Court of the Republic of Lithuania judging cases about state officers impeachment. The author is concentrated on impeachment institute that is established in Constitution of the Republic of Lithuania. It's analyzed in two cuts. First of all the author is interested in interaction problems between law and politics in impeachment process. Secondly, Constitutional Court being a part of impeachment process has to judge actual facts. So we meet relationship between fact and law in this type of constitutional justice cases. By 74 th article of Constitution for gross violation of the Constitution, breach of oath, or upon the disclosure of the commitment of felony, the Seimas may, by three fifths majority vote of all the Seimas members, remove from office the President of the Republic, the Chairman and judges of the Constitutional Court, the Chairman and judges of the Court of Appeals, as well Seimas members, or may revote their mandate of Seimas member. Such an action shall be carried out in accordance with impeachment proceedings that shall be established by the Statute of the Seimas. In 105 th article 2 nd part 5 th mark of the Constitution is established that the Constitutional Court shall present conclusions concerning the compliance with the Constitution of concrete action of Seimas members or other State officers against whom impeachment proceedings have been instituted. So in impeachment process participates political institution – Seimas and judicial institution – Constitutional Court. Jurisprudence of the Constitutional Court demonstrates that Court explaining Constitutional articles regarding impeachment tires to strengthen legal impeachment aspect. Constitutional Court has marked that only Constitutional Court shall present conclusion concerning the compliance with Constitution of concrete actions of higher State officers against whom impeachment proceedings have been instituted.

Harry considers his most important work was achieved in the last 2 years of his life as 'Harry the Hospice Cat'. Situated in his sun spot in St Angela's garden and then his window sill in the marketing office Harry ruminates over the micro-level marketing being undertaken by a hospice. Inspired by the death of a real-life hospice cat together with an ethnographic study of a hospice marketing team 'Harry's most important work' is not a 'tall tale' but gives real insight into the challenges and battles involved in marketing work. Harry observes the demands made on St Angela's to embrace digital advances and the struggles of nonprofit organisations to keep pace with new marketing practice. Observing the 'goings on' as well as the different 'languages' in a hospice, Harry highlights the very real tensions that arise from the difficult work being undertaken and analyses the organisational tensions which emerge when a marketing team strive to negotiate their legitimacy. From under the table in the chilly, white meeting room Harry tells the unique and important story about the 'doing' of very difficult marketing in the unusual context of a hospice. Harry's story has implications for marketing education, practice and research as well as other animals who may feel a sense of responsibility to help humankind.

Abstract
The Zhuangzi is a book that opens to a virtual wilderness of interpretive possibilities begging for exploration by scholars and laypersons alike. What follows here is an adventuresome foray by one of the latter. As such, it is essentially an exercise in creative writing. Since it is our interpretive conclusion that this was precisely what Zhuangzi himself was about, we believe he would smile broadly upon this endeavor however far-afield its proclamations might be. This point is central within this essay. However we engage with Zhuangzi, whether as a dilettante or an academic, it is the engagement that matters most. Conclusions are secondary at best. This having been said, conclusions will be found herein. Ambiguity is the signature characteristic of Zhuangzi's writing. Awareness of ambiguity as a defining characteristic of the human experience invites us to consider the importance of not-knowing, the thing-left-out, the usefulness of the useless, the prioritization of Yin over Yang, and, most importantly, the experience of inherent emptiness. For Zhuangzi, such an awareness invites a radical paradigm shift away from the cognitive to the visceral. It invites an embrace of emptiness that renders one free of all dependence on being a self in need of itself.

It seems that there will be a general election before Christmas. This, it is believed, could break the impasse that has been created in Parliament by Brexit. However, as in all things associated with the 'B' word, it's likely that the outcome might result in unintended consequences.Psychologists looking for historical precedent, always a dangerous pursuit, might look to 1974 for indicators of how things may turn out. In 1974 there were two elections, in February and October, neither of which resulted in majorities. The first election, on 28thFebruary, had been called by incumbent Prime Minister Conservative Edward Heath who was beset by economic of inflation running at 20%, a trade (current account) deficit for the previous month of £383 million, the largest in history to that point and ongoing industrial relations problems including another miners' strike.

This ISTeC Distinguished Lecture was held on March 24, 2014 in Fort Collins, Colorado. ; Dr. Randy Schekman is currently an investigator of the Howard Hughes Medical Institute and a Professor of Cell and Developmental Biology in the Department of Molecular and Cell Biology at the University of California, Berkeley. He was awarded the Nobel Prize for Physiology or Medicine in 2013, together with Thomas C. Sudhof and James Rothman, "for their discoveries of machinery regulating vesicle traffic, a major transport system in our cells." ; ISTeC (Information Science and Technology Center) is a university-wide organization for promoting, facilitating, and enhancing CSU's research, education, and outreach activities pertaining to the design and innovative application of computer, communication, and information systems. ; Includes recorded lecture and PowerPoint presentation. ; The assessment of scholarly achievement depends critically on the proper evaluation and publication of research work in scholarly journals. Investigators face a dizzying array of journal styles that include commercial, not-for-profit and academic society journals that are supported by a mix of subscription and page charges. The Open Access (OA) movement, launched in Britain but greatly expanded by the Public Library of Science (PLoS), seeks to eliminate the firewall that separates published work from public access. OA journals are funded by a mix of page charges and philanthropic or foundation support. Most OA journals embrace a more liberal licensing agreement on the use and reuse of published work, favoring the creative commons license rather than a copyright held by the publisher. Some publishers, particularly commercial firms, view the OA movement as a threat to the viability of their business plan. Major commercial publishers, particularly Elsevier, have fought against government mandates for OA publication of publicly funded research. The most selective and successful journals, Science, Nature and Cell (a life science journal owned by Elsevier), maintain a firm hold on the high end of the scientific literature by appealing to investigators to submit only their most important work. Typically, these journals publish only a small fraction of the papers they receive and for the most part they rely on professional editors rather than active scholars to make key editorial decisions. These publishers, particularly Nature and Cell, reinforce their high standing by relying on a metric, the impact factor (IF) that computes the average number of citations of papers published in the journal during the preceding two-year period. As a consequence, many investigators, who quite naturally seek career advancement, strive to publish in these journals even at the expense of repeated cycles of review, wasteful additional experimental work and ultimately lost time. I will argue that it is time for scholars to reassume authority for the publication of their research work and to eschew the use of IF in the evaluation of scholarly achievement and favor OA publications over what I have called the "luxury" journals.
