The main goal of the research is to determine the conditions of welfare and housing of farm animals for milk production. Milk producers in the region of northeastern BiH are not informed enough about the protection and welfare of animals. This research was conducted in May 2012. The results were obtained on the basis of the questionnaire methodology in five freedoms in the welfare and accommodation of animals (Webster, 1987). Farms are divided into three groups, farms that have up to 5 dairy cows (they are in majority in the region), farms that have up to 20 dairy cows and farms with more than 20 dairy cows. On farms that have up to 5 dairy cows all farms posses tied system of keeping cows and cows are kept in closed conditions. Farms with up to 20 dairy cows also a large percentage of 67% related to the system of keeping cows in indoor conditions. A smaller part of the farm has a free system of keeping cows and stables open with good light and ventilation. Only 16% of farms with more than 20 dairy cows are tied housing system and the rest of the free system of keeping cows. All farms meet freedom from hunger and thirst, but the big problem is freedom from discomfort, freedom from stress and fear, freedom of injury and illness and the freedom to express natural behavior. The research was carried out within the project "Improvement of milk production in northeastern Bosnia and Herzegovina" funded by the Development Agency of the Czech Republic.

Tax incentives for research and development represent an important tax relief within corporate income tax. B-index helps to detect differences in the influence of tax system on private sector to invest in research and development. The main objective of this paper is to present tax incentives for research and development, and calculation of B-index in Austria and Croatia. B-index results show better treatment of R&D tax incentives in Croatia than in Austria. B- index value in Croatia is 1, 09 and in Austria 1, 25. Fiscal policy leaders must pay attention to offer tax incentives that are stimulative enough for companies not to lose interest in their use. Otherwise, country would only have short-term revenue in the budget. In order to increase state budget, it is very important to collect sufficient revenues from the corporate income tax.

Major part of energy in conventional dwelling structures is used for space heating. At older dwelling structures with no heating insulation at outer walls, as well as structures with inadequate construction and heating insulation, heat losses are evident and unavoidable. Infra red thermography proved as a very powerful, successful and simple method for detecting heat losses through construction elements. It is possible to detect structural and insulation failings based on results interpretations without destruction, and thus to increase energy efficiency of structures by removing the failings. The paper gives an overview of IC thermography potential for detecting heat losses and for assessing energy efficiency of dwelling structures proven on several cases using FLIR i7 IC camera.

Glavni cilj ovog istraživanja je utvrđivanje utjecaja motorickih sposobnosti nogometasa/fudbalera (kao prediktorskog skupa varijabli) na situaciono-motoricku spremnost nogometasa/fudbalera (kao kriterijskog skupa varijabli). Problem koji se tretira u ovom istraživanju odnosi se na utvrđivanje utjecaja nekih latentnih antropoloskih dimenzija bazicno-motorickih sposobnosti (brzine, eksplozivne snage i agilnosti) na situaciono-motoricke sposobnosti nogometasa (baratanje loptom, brzina vođenja lopte i snaga udarca po lopti). Istraživanje je sprovedeno na uzorku od 64 nogometasa iz cetiri nogometna kluba sa podrucja Tuzlanskog kantona koji se takmice u Drugoj ligi FBiH, grupa „Sjever“. Za utvrđivanje utjecaja sistema bazicno-motorickih sposobnosti na rezultate situaciono-motorickih sposobnosti nogometasa primijenjena je multipla regresiona analiza. Rezultati istraživanja govore: Na osnovu prikazanih rezultata vidimo da su se kao znacajni prediktori pokazale varijable MBFTAP – taping rukom, MAGOSS – osmica sa sagibanjem i MFE20V – trcanje na 20 m visokim startom. Varijable segmentarne brzine i agilnosti su pokazale znacajan utjecaj. Ti prostori cine i osnovu motorike, i ovi prostori motorike su vrlo bitni za adekvatno izvođenje bilo kakvih kretnih struktura kako u nogometu tako i u ostalim kinezioloskim aktivnostima. Varijabla MFE20V – trcanje na 20 m visokim startom, koja se također pokazala kao znacajan prediktor, a u kriterijskom skupu varijabli imamo varijable za procjenu snage udarca po lopti, i za ostvarenje boljih rezultata u ovim situaciono-motorickim sposobnostima je bitna eksplozivna snaga. Na osnovu rezultata dobivenih primjenjenim statistickim metodama za multivarijantnu analizu podataka (regresiona analiza), možemo konstatovati da je utjecaj osnovnih bazicno-motorickih sposobnosti (brzine, eksplozivne snage i agilnosti) na situacono-motoricke sposobnosti (baratanje loptom, brzina vođenja lopte i snaga udarca po lopti) znacajan.

Nonunion of long bones fixed with nails may result in implant failure. Removal of a broken intramedullary nail may be a real challenge. Many methods have been described to allow for removal of the broken piece of the nail. In this paper, we are reviewing the different techniques to extract a broken nail, classifying them into different subsets, and describing a new technique that we used to remove a broken tibial nail with narrow canal. Eight different categories of implant removal methods were described, with different methods within each category. This classification is very comprehensive and was never described before. We described a new technique (hook captured in the medulla by flexible nail introduced from the locking hole) which is a valuable technique in cases of nail of a small diameter where other methods cannot be used because of the narrow canal of the nail. Our eight categories for broken nail removal methods simplify the concepts of nail removal and allow the surgeon to better plan for the removal procedure.

Osnovni cilj ove studije je bio da se procijeni međusobni odnos, povezanost funkcionalno-motorickih kapaciteta aerobna izdržljivost, brzinska izdržljivost, startno ubrzanje, maksimalna brzina trcanja, brzina trcanja, agilnost i eksplozivna snaga elitnih fudbalerki kadetkinja, kao i njihov uticaj na realizaciju specificnih fudbalskih kretnih struktura. Uzorak ispitanica za ovo istraživanje je je bio sacinjen od 21 igracice U17 Fudbalske reprezentacije Crne Gore. Testiranje je sprovedeno tokom redovnog okupljanja reprezentativki u periodu zimske pauze u sezoni 2012/2013. godine. Navedene fizioloske karakteristike su testirane testovima: Yo Yo intermitentni test oporavka (nivo1), sprint 10 m iz stojeceg stava, sprint 20 m leteci start, sprint 30 m stojeci stav, slalom trcanje, 300 jardi, skok iz cucnja sa pripremom, i skok udalj s mjesta, dok su specificna fudbalska kretanja, kao kriterijum, procjenjivana testom slalom sa loptom. Ovom studijom je utvrđeno da rezultati svih primijenjenih testova međusobno znacajno koreliraju, odnosno imaju statisticki znacajnu povezanost. Takav slucaj se nije desio samo kod korelacionih koeficijenata koji su izracunati za test skok iz cucnja sa pripremom, koji je znacajnu povezanost imao samo sa testom 300 jardi (r=-.51, p ˂ .05). Ovom studijom je takođe utvrđeno da ovakav sistem pokazatelja fizioloskih potencijala ima statisticki znacajan uticaj na kvalitet realizacije specificnih fudbalskih kretnih struktura (R2=.73, p ˂ .05), dok je od svih nezavisnih pokazatelja samo test slalom trcanje imao statisticki znacajnu predikciju kriterijumskog rezultata u testu slalom sa loptom (β=.65, p ˂ .05).

We have designed a machine that becomes increasingly better at behaving in underspecified circumstances, in a goal-directed way, on the job, by modeling itself and its environment as experience accumulates. Based on principles of autocatalysis, endogeny, and reflectivity, the work provides an architectural blueprint for constructing systems with high levels of operational autonomy in underspecified circumstances, starting from a small seed. Through value-driven dynamic priority scheduling controlling the parallel execution of a vast number of reasoning threads, the system achieves recursive self-improvement after it leaves the lab, within the boundaries imposed by its designers. A prototype system has been implemented and demonstrated to learn a complex real-world task, real-time multimodal dialogue with humans, by on-line observation. Our work presents solutions to several challenges that must be solved for achieving artificial general intelligence.
