Abstract Prominent ECB representatives have stressed the goal of to green its monetary policy, inter alia by moving from market neutrality (green) efficiency as guiding principle policy making. The paper explores how EU taxonomy could become benchmark for a ECB, which influences credit allocation commercial banks, with negative impact on and growth in European Union.

Only a few European integration experts know that Jean Monnet, one of the masterminds of the European Coal and Steel Community, strongly preferred the European Atomic Energy Communitl to the European Economic Community in the 1950s and 1960s. From his point of view, sectoral and technical cooperation in the field of nuclear energy seemed to be much more promising in order to foster European int...

The objective of this study was to determine the prevalence of torus palatanis and torus mandibularis in relation to age and gender among patients who attended Dental Department of Queen Alia Military Hospital in Jordan. In this study 1218 subjects were examined for the presence of tori by inspection and palpations. Out of 1218 subjects 28.7% had torus palatinus or mandibularis. The highest per...

This paper presents a brief summary of a 35 years study of the software process and the software evolution phenomenon. It draws attention, inter alia, to the SPE program classification, a principle of software uncertainty and laws of software evolution. Recent studies have led to refinement of earlier conclusions and provided a basis for formation of a theory of software evolution. Management r...

Epidemiological studies of the survivors of the atomic bombings of Hiroshima and Nagasaki have been conducted over many years. These studies have examined, inter alia, mortality and cancer incidence among the survivors. This paper summarises the form of the studies undertaken, outlines the main findings and describes how these results can be used in deriving estimates of radiation risks. In doi...

There is well known variation in the Scandinavian languages with respect to verb placement in embedded clauses (see e.g. Holmberg & Platzack 1995, Bobaljik 2002, Thráinsson 2010, Heycock et al. 2012 inter alia). In the modern Mainland Scandinavian languages, the finite verb follows negation in relative clauses and embedded questions (henceforth V-in-situ ). In Icelandic, on the other hand, the ...

THE Merrison Report1 was published in April 1975. ILs recommendations, if adopted, could affect the relationship between university and hospital. It proposes inter alia an extension of the postgraduate responsibility of the licensing bodies from their present mainly nominal control of the pre-registration year to an active role in a possibly two-year postgraduate period ("graduate clinical trai...

Sir, I read with great interest the review article on Lhermitte’s sign by Khare and Seth.[1] The sign occurs, inter alia, in multiple sclerosis, in traumatic lesions of the cervical cord, and in subacute combined degeneration. I agree that very few studies are available on Lhermitte’s sign and there is need of more research in this particular field. In this current review, treatment with extrac...

The complete nucleotide sequence of the capsular gene cluster (cap8) responsible for the biosynthesis of the capsular polysaccharide of Streptococcus pneumoniae type 8 has been determined. The cap8 gene cluster, located between the genes dexB and aliA, is composed of 12 open reading frames. A 14.7-kb DNA fragment embracing the cap8 genes was sufficient to transform an unencapsulated type 3 S. p...
