Badania nad poziomym rozmieszczeniem makrozoobentosu piaszczystego dna w okolicach Jastarni i Juraty prowadzone były jednorazowo latem 2004 roku. Wyznaczono 15 stanowisk w okolicach Juraty dzieląc stanowiska na cztery promienie oddalone od siebie o 100 m oraz 4 stanowiska w pobliżu portu w Jastarni. Bezkręgowce denne na tym obszarze reprezentowane były przez 18 gatunków i 3 grupy ponadgatunkowe, które w pobliżu Juraty osiągały zagęszczenie X = 1840 osobn. · nr' i masę mokrą X = 121,8 g,,,,;m·', a w okolicach Jastarni x = 638 osobn.im? i x = 376,6 g,,,,,,·m·'. Najczęściej spotykanymi gatunkami były Hediste diversicolor, Cerastoderma g!aucum i Hydrobia u/vae. Większą bioróżnorodnością wyznaczoną wskaźnikiem ShannonaWienera charakteryzowały się stanowiska najbardziej oddalone od brzegu w Juracie. Skład gatunkowy oraz struktura jakościowo-ilościowa fauny dennej w tej części Zatoki Puckiej świadczy o niezadowalającym stanie środowiska oraz niskiej wartości tych obszarów jako miejsca żerowania ryb.

The fusulinid foraminifers of Schellwienia arctica (Schellwien, 1908) have been investigated from Polakkfjellet Mt., south Spitsbergen, and used as biostratigraphic marker for the latest Carboniferous earliest Permian strata of the Treskelodden Formation. A series of thin sections enable to investigate the internal structure and growth pattern of individual specimens. The observed variation of growth suggests dynamic environmental conditions at the investigated location and most likely over one-year long life span of this foraminifer.

The author reconstructs the Romantic concept of imagination, drawing attention to its relations with the esoteric tradition, and then presents the significance of the idea of imagination for pedagogical reflection in the period of Romanticism. What is also undertaken is the motif of the continuity of Romantic ideas in the 20th century, with special regard to the 20th century youth counterculture and the relations between the countercultural concept of imagination and the discourse on education.

The statute regarding labor on marine merchant vessels, popularly known as the sailing statute, was fundamentally amended by the statute of 20 December 2002. The primary aim of the changes approved by the Polish Parliament was to bring Polish law into line with that of the European Union. This condition is particularly important in the context of the fundamental tenets of the European Union, namely that of legal certitude. It established that organizations have a clearly defined legal position in efficient vindication. The assurance of the effectiveness of EU law does not depend on the formal implementation of regulations, but is assured by the proper execution of the law.

The author of the article considers that the legislation of 20 December 1996 relating to ports and maritime landing stages regulates three groups of issues. The first chapter of the legislation is structural; the two remaining chapters regulate legal relations. The article analyses the regulations contained in chapter three of the legislation, and especially art. 8 which entitles the entity managing ports of fundamental importance for the national economy "to fix and collect port charges." The article presents the course of the case between the Managing Board of the Port of Gdańsk S.A. and the Northern Port Sp. z o. o. The case was heard before the District Court in Gdańsk (Doc. Sig. IX GC 1819/99). The subject of the claim was the port charges levied on the owners of loading equipment.

The quest for airframe weight reduction results in a careful dimensioning cross section areas of structural airframe components depending on the anticipated loading. In the case of flanges of polymeric laminate spars subjected to tension such a dimensioning can be done by means of appropriate ply dropping along the spar flanges. A method for an effective calculation of the number of plies that can be cut off at the cross-section under consideration without excessive stress concentration resulted has been presented. The method takes advantage of the Linear Fracture Mechanics tools combined with simple finite element calculations. In addition, experimental data needed can be easily obtained with the use of inexpensive specimens that are simple for manufacturing and testing.

Architecture created in Poland of 21st C. is somewhere a mode of selfpresentation, in another cases is a method of shouting down the others. It is also aomwhere talking without any thesis, instead with a large dose of a badly understood assertiveness. Whe should to built a clear architectural activity, more objectified, and tied with a contemporaneity. We should begin from the most basic rules, from the certain architectural grammar. The identity can be understood as a set of features, which e.g. let to distinguish architecture growing out in Poland, in contrary to architecture rooted somewhere elsewhere. Those are not always any formal features. In order to understand what a spirit of the place really is, e.g. in ancient Rome there was an idea of the watchman spirit. This spirit gives life to the people and to the places, accompany them since they a born until they are dead. It determines their character or the content.
