Opis:
Ever since the first public seat of learning was founded in antique Alexandria – famed for Euclid, Archimedes and Herophilos – inventors and innovators of diverse orientations have banded together at particular places around the globe. Today, the most prominent of them is the San Francisco Bay area. What make creative people cluster in those places? Numerous studies have shown that they are attracted primarily, not by any material benefits, but by the ambience of the place, where creativity has become a way of life, where inspiration is derived from a heterogeneous environment. In conclusion, the author draws up a psychological portrait of the creative class and considers its development prospects.

Opis:
Navajo claims pertaining to the sacredness of the San Francisco Peaks (as well as those of several other Native American tribes), while no doubt profoundly sincere, are necessarily and strategically positioned in relation to the contemporary legal struggles within which they have arisen. However, I cannot stress too heavily that this should not suggest that their claims are spurious, invented, or in other words “inauthentic.” Greg Johnson asserts that “frequently, the specter against which authenticity is measured is what critics might call “postured tradition,” a shorthand means of suggesting that tradition expressed in political contexts is ‘merely political’” (2007: 3). To be sure, the discourses that posit the sacredness of the Peaks are fundamentally and simultaneously both religious and political; yet this does not necessarily mean that traditional religious claims made in contemporary political contexts are motivated by purely political considerations. Although these claims are necessarily formulated to persuade others of the incontestable “authenticity” of their claims, I suggest that the degree to which this incontestability is achieved is directly related to an accumulation and accretion of discourse resulting from nearly four decades of continuing conflict at the Peaks.

Opis:
In this paper, I explore the Pageant of the Pacific, a sequence of mural-maps painted by the Mexican artist and illustrator, Miguel Covarrubias, for the San Francisco International Exposition of 1939–1940. By placing these mural-maps within the larger context of cultural geography and Covarrubias’s own theories of comparative anthropology, they offer an artistic and poetic explanation of the relationships found among the cultures of the Pacific Rim, drawing connections across historical epoch and geographical region. Within Covarrubias’s own historical context, these maps provide an important visual link that crosses disciplinary boundaries, providing insight into the intellectual conversation of his era and, perhaps, providing a model for interdisciplinarity in the present age as well.

Opis:
The difficult history of Taiwan has preoccupied politicians and scholars for the better part of the last century and is unlikely to be unraveled in the near future. The main issue is the following: are there two separate Chinas or one and if so who has the right to represent China? Both the Taiwanese and Peking governments have consistently adhered the One China theory and both claim the right to represent the country. Many legal concepts were devised in support of either party, including that Taiwan had become res nullius after Japan’s unconditional surrender, or a condominium of the Allied Powers. Several major theories are analysed in depth, based on the interpretation of public international law such as the Peace Treaty of San Francisco, the Treaty of Taipei and the Shimonoseki Peace Treaty. Parallels are drawn between the attempts to decide the legal status of Taiwan and akin attempts performed by some European territories such as bringing Alsace-Loraine in the fold of France. The paper aims mainly at exploring various concepts of Taiwan’s status according to international law. This investigation takes into account the international and the domestic situation.
Trudna historia Tajwanu zajmowała polityków i badaczy przez większą część ubiegłego stulecia i jest mało prawdopodobne, aby można ją było rozwikłać w najbliższej przyszłości. Podstawowym problemem jest niemożność rozstrzygnięcia, czy istnieje jedno, czy dwa oddzielne państwa oraz kto ma prawo do reprezentowania Chin. Zarówno rząd tajwański, jak i Pekin, konsekwentnie popierają teorię jednych Chin i swoje prawo do ich wyłącznego reprezentowania. Powstało wiele teorii prawnych powoływanych przez każdą ze stron na poparcie swojego stanowiska, m.in. określające Tajwan jako res nullius po bezwarunkowej kapitulacji Japonii lub kondominium mocarstw sojuszniczych. Wiodące teorie interpretowane są w oparciu o akty prawa międzynarodowego publicznego, w tym traktat pokojowy z San Francisco, traktat z Tajpej i traktat pokojowy z Shimonoseki. Podejmowane są także próby określania statusu prawnego Tajwanu na zasadzie podobieństwa do statusu niektórych terytoriów europejskich, np. przyłączenia Alzacji i Lotaryngii do Francji. Celem artykułu jest przedstawienie na gruncie prawa międzynarodowego różnych koncepcji statusu Tajwanu, z uwzględnieniem jego sytuacji międzynarodowej i wewnętrznej.

Opis:
Selected biological and morphometric characters of two populations of the nonindigenous Chinese mitten crab,one from the Szczecin Lagoon (SL) and the other from San Francisco Bay (SFB),b oth sampled in autumn, were analysed. The SL crabs showed a significantly higher individual weight,l ength and carapace width. Males accounted for 55% (87 individuals) of the 179 SL crabs,an d 62.9% (90 individuals) of the SFB crabs. Statistical analysis of metric characters,expr essed as a percentage of carapace width (X2),en abled four diagnostic characters to be identified: abdomen width (X11),carapace height (X3),left claw length (X7) and carapace length (X1). These jointly explain 71.75% of the differences between the SL and SFB crabs and are indicative of the distinctness of the populations.

Cinder movement experiments on scoria cones slopes : Rates and direction of transport

Opis:
As part of a field experiment to examine slope processes, four experimental grids with painted and numbered cinders were placed on the outer crater rims of two scoria cones in the San Francisco volcanic field, Arizona. Each grid contained 50 cinders placed in five rows of ten each. Rows were placed parallel to local slope contours. The mean diameter for each cinder was 1.7±0.2 cm (n = 200) and the average grid slope was 20.2°. Grids were set in July 1992. They were revisited one month later in August 1992 and again two years later in August 1994. Although several cinders failed to show any movement in the August 1992 survey, the average length of movement was 11.2 cm (n = 118). If the total movement is averaged over the 197 cinders that were relocated, the average length of movement then becomes 6.7 cm (n = 197). All cinders showed movement in the August 1994 survey and the average distance of movement was 32.8 cm (n= 141 with 59 missing cinders). The mean annual rate of movement after 25 months was 15.8cm/yr(n= 141). Using the convention that the 180° azimuth direction is downslope and perpendicular to local slope contours, the direction of cinder movement more closely approaches 180° with an increase in time. The azimuth directions calculated after just one month of emplacement display greater scatter and variability than the more correlated results measured after 25 months. The mean azimuth value after the 1992 survey was 163.6±54.2° (n= 118), while the mean azimuth after the 1994 survey was 177.9±20.7° (n = 141). Several painted cinders displayed upslope movement when the grids were first visited after one month. However, after two years the cumulative movement for every cinder was downslope from its original position. Non-channel overland flow is interpreted to be the primary erosional agent responsible for moving the cinders in the downhill direction. Rainsplash is interpreted to be responsible for moving the cinders in the upslope direction and is believed to be the major contributor to the variability in the azimuth measurements.
