Abstract Ideas of well-being in old age are often anchored the successful ageing paradigm, foregrounding independence, activeness and autonomy. However, for those oldest living nursing homes, these goals largely out reach. In this article, we use meta-ethnographic method to explore reinterpret existing findings on ways which is experienced (or not) by institutional care settings. We frame our e...

The straightforward elimination of union types is known to break subject reduction, and for some extensions of the lambda-calculus, to break strong normalization as well. Similarly, the straightforward elimination of implicit existential types breaks subject reduction. We propose elimination rules for union types and implicit existential quantification which use a form call-by-value issued from...

We consider two kinds of reeective relational machines: the usual ones, which use rst order queries, and existential reeective machines, which use only rst order existential queries. We compare these two computation models. We build on already existing results for standard relational machines, obtained by Abiteboul, Papadimitriou and Vianu APV], so we prove only results for existential machines...

It is not a concise theory but is a loose collection of theories centering on the meaning or purpose of life. However it is applicable to counseling because of its focus...

We give a de nition, in the ring language, of Zp inside Qp and of Fp[[t]] inside Fp((t)), which works uniformly for all p and all nite eld extensions of these elds, and in many other Henselian valued elds as well. The formula can be taken existential-universal in the ring language, and in fact existential in a modi cation of the language of Macintyre. Furthermore, we show the negative result th...
