Comparison of Internal Fit between Implant Abutments and Cast Metal Crowns vs Laser-sintered Crowns
Authors: Kiliçarslan Mehmet Ali , Özkan Pelin , Uludag Bülent , Mumcu Emre
Published: January 2015

Aim

A common problem related to cemented single crowns is the internal misfit, which may cause inadequate retention, especially when seated on the implant abutment. The aim of this study was to compare the internal fit of Co-Cr crowns using a traditional lost-wax casting technique from laser-sintered Co-Cr alloy crowns.

Materials and methods

Twelve metallic crowns per each technique were fabricated. The effect of the thickness of cement, originated internal gap was evaluated. Crowns were cemented on the implant abutments with resin cement, and the internal fit of crowns was measured at five areas with an optical microscope. The data were analyzed, and the means were compared with a t-test (p<0.05).

Results

The internal gap width measurements for the lasersintered group (min. 52.19 ± 11.61 µm and max. 140.01 ± 31.84 µm) indicated the presence of a significantly closed internal gap compared to the crowns obtained through the lost wax method (min. 65.50 ± 9.54 µm and max. 313.46 ± 48.12 µm).

Conclusion

The fit of the metal crown likely varies with the fabrication technique. The use of techniques that enable the adjustment of crown parameters, such as the laser sintering technique, maintains the desired fit between casting and implant abutments.

Clinical significance

This study investigated which technique affects the internal fit of cemented implant-supported crowns, comparing the use of lost wax casting and laser-sintered metal dental alloys. The results of this study indicate that the use of laser-sintered crowns can improve for crown accuracy.

Aim

This study aims to evaluate, the influence of different fiber posts cementation lengths by finite element analysis (FEA) and coronal microleakage.

Materials and methods

Fifty anterior bovine teeth were sectioned to obtain roots with 16 mm length. The coronal length of the post was 6 mm for all groups, while the radicular length were varied 6, 8, 10 or 12 mm. The fiber posts surfaces were cleaned with alcohol and silanized. Then the posts were cemented using a two steps total etch-and-rinse adhesive system + conventional resin cement. Forty teeth were submitted to mechanical cycling (45°; 2.000.000 cycles; 90N; 4Hz; 37°C) and ten teeth with radicular length of 12 mm was not submitted, serving as control. So, the experimental design was composed by different ratios of post coronal length/post radicular length and mechanical cycling (MC): Gr1- 1/1 + MC; Gr2- 3/4 + MC; Gr3- 3/5 + MC; Gr4- 1/2 + MC. All groups were immersed in a 1% toluidine blue solution. After 24 hours, the teeth were longitudinally sectioned and the microleakage scores was given by a blind operator. Data were submitted to Kruskal-Wallis test (p = 0.05). The experimental variables were simulated in twodimensional finite element analysis (2D-FEA). The maximum principal stress distributions were compared.

Results

No difference was observed in microleakage values between the cycled groups, whilst the control groups showed the lowest values. FEA analysis showed similar maximum principal stress distribution between the groups.

Conclusion

Mechanical cycling affected the values of coronal microleakage and different cementation length generated similar values of coronal microleakage and stress distribution.

Clinical significance

These results showed that from the microleakage point of view, more conservative cementation lengths have the same effect as longer cementation lengths.

The Radix Entomolaris and Radix Paramolaris: An Endodontic Challenge
Authors: Agarwal Manoj , Trivedi HP , Mathur Meetu , Goel Deepak , Mittal Sankalp
Published: January 2015

Success of endodontic treatment depends on the proper identification of all the canals, thorough chemomechanical preparation followed by three-dimensional obturation with hermetic seal. Failure of any of these steps may occur due to unusual tooth morphology. Usually mandibular molars have two roots with three canals but in few teeth, the number of roots and canals vary. The variation in the number of roots, if extra root located lingually called radix entomolaris (RE) or located bucally called radix paramolaris (RP). This article presents successful endodontic treatment of two mandibular first molars with extra roots one is with radix entomolaris and other is with radix paramolaris, both of which are rare microstructures.

The Ambiguous Salivary Myoepithelial Cells
Authors: Sanketh DS , Amrutha N , Agarwal Anveeta
Published: January 2015

Salivary gland neoplasms present with a diverse histological pattern which is mainly because of the presence of specialized myoepithelial cells (MECs). These are contractile epithelial cells with smooth muscle like properties. They have been also noticed in mammary glands, lacrimal glands, prostate gland, and the sweat glands and have varied functions. MECs play an important role in the histogenesis of many salivary gland tumors. Knowledge of MECs leads to a better understanding of the histological diversity of salivary gland neoplasms. This article reviews the physiology, histology, identification and role of these cells in salivary gland pathology.

Abstract. The Fennec climate program aims to improve understanding of the Saharan climate system through a synergy of observations and modelling. We present a description of the Fennec airborne observations during 2011 and 2012 over the remote Sahara (Mauritania and Mali) and the advances in the understanding of mineral dust and boundary layer processes they have provided. Aircraft instrumentation aboard the UK FAAM BAe146 and French SAFIRE Falcon 20 is described, with specific focus on instrumentation specially developed and relevant to Saharan meteorology and dust. Flight locations, aims and associated meteorology are described. Examples and applications of aircraft measurements from the Fennec flights are presented, highlighting new scientific results delivered using a synergy of different instruments and aircraft. These include: (1) the first airborne measurement of dust particles sized up to 300 microns and associated dust fluxes in the Saharan atmospheric boundary layer (SABL), (2) dust uplift from the breakdown of the nocturnal low-level jet before becoming visible in SEVIRI satellite imagery, (3) vertical profiles of the unique vertical structure of turbulent fluxes in the SABL, (4) in-situ observations of processes in SABL clouds showing dust acting as CCN and IN at −15 °C, (5) dual-aircraft observations of the SABL dynamics, thermodynamics and composition in the Saharan heat low region (SHL), (6) airborne observations of a dust storm associated with a cold-pool (haboob) issued from deep convection over the Atlas, (7) the first airborne chemical composition measurements of dust in the SHL region with differing composition, sources (determined using Lagrangian backward trajectory calculations) and absorption properties between 2011 and 2012, (8) coincident ozone and dust surface area measurements suggest coarser particles provide a route for ozone depletion, (9) discrepancies between airborne coarse mode size distributions and AERONET sunphotometer retrievals under light dust loadings. These results provide insights into boundary layer and dust processes in the SHL region – a region of substantial global climatic importance.

Published: January 2015

Abstract. The study assesses the contribution of aerosols to the extinction of visible radiation in the mist-fog-mist cycle. Measurements of the microphysical and optical properties of hydrated aerosols with diameters larger than 400 nm, composing the accumulation mode, which are the most efficient to interact with visible radiation, were carried out near Paris, during November 2011, in ambient conditions. Eleven mist-fog-mist cycles were observed, with cumulated fog duration of 95 h, and cumulated mist-fog-mist duration of 240 h. In mist, aerosols grew up by taking up water at relative humidities larger than 93%, causing a visibility decrease below 5 km. While visibility decreased down to few km, the mean size of the hydrated aerosols increased, and their number concentration (Nha) increased from approximately 160 to approximately 600 cm−3. When fog formed, droplets became the strongest contributors to visible radiation extinction, and liquid water content (LWC) increased beyond 7 mg m−3. Hydrated aerosols of the accumulation mode co-existed with droplets, as interstitial non-activated aerosols. Their size continued to increase, and a significant proportion of aerosols achieved diameters larger than 2.5 μm. The mean transition diameter between the accumulation mode and the small droplet mode was 4.0 ± 1.1 μm. Moreover Nha increased on average by 60% after fog formation. Consequently the mean aerosol contribution to extinction in fog was 20 ± 15% for diameter smaller than 2.5 μm and 6 ± 7% beyond. The standard deviation is large because of the large variability of Nha in fog, which could be smaller than in mist or three times larger. The particle extinction coefficient in fog can be computed as the sum of a droplet component and an aerosol component, which can be approximated by 3.5 Nha (Nha in cm−3 and particle extinction coefficient in Mm−1). We observed an influence of the main formation process on Nha, but not on the contribution to fog extinction by aerosols. Indeed in fogs formed by stratus lowering (STL), the mean Nha was 360 ± 140 cm−3, close to the value observed in mist, while in fogs formed by nocturnal radiative cooling under cloud-free sky (RAD), the mean Nha was 600 ± 350 cm−3. But because visibility (extinction) in fog was also lower (larger) in RAD than in STL fogs, the contribution by aerosols to extinction depended little on the fog formation process. Similarly, the proportion of hydrated aerosols over all aerosols (dry and hydrated) did not depend on the fog formation process. Measurements show that visibility in RAD fogs was smaller than in STL fogs because: (1) LWC was larger in RAD than in STL fogs, (2) droplets were smaller, (3) as already said, hydrated aerosols composing the accumulation mode were more numerous.

Published: January 2015

Abstract. This study investigates the effect of Stratospheric Sudden Warmings (SSWs) on Planetary Wave (PW) activity in the Mesosphere-Lower Thermosphere (MLT). PW activity near 95 km is derived from meteor wind data using a chain of 8 SuperDARN radars at high northern latitudes that span longitudes from 150° W to 25° E and latitudes from 51 to 66° N. Zonal wave number 1 and 2 components were extracted from the meridional wind for the years 2000–2008. The observed wintertime PW activity shows common features associated with the stratospheric wind reversals and the accompanying stratospheric warming events. Onset dates for seven SSW events accompanied by an elevated stratopause (ES) were identified during this time period using the Specified Dynamics Whole Atmosphere Community Climate Model (SD-WACCM). For the seven events, a significant enhancement in wave number 1 and 2 PW amplitudes near 95 km was found to occur after the wind reversed at 50 km, with amplitudes maximizing approximately 5 days after the onset of the wind reversal. This PW enhancement in the MLT after the event was confirmed using SD-WACCM. When all cases of polar cap wind reversals at 50 km were considered, a significant, albeit moderate, correlation of 0.4 was found between PW amplitudes near 95 km and westward polar-cap stratospheric winds at 50 km, with the maximum correlation occurring ~3 days after the maximum westward wind. These results indicate that the enhancement of PW amplitudes near 95 km are a common feature of SSWs irrespective of the strength of the wind reversal.

Abstract. High-altitude peatlands of the Andes still remain relatively unexploited although they offer an excellent opportunity for well-dated palaeoenvironmental records. To improve knowledge about climatic and environmental changes in the western Andes of southern Peru, we present a high-resolution record of the Cerro Llamoca peatland for the last 8600 years. The 10.5 m long core consists of peat and intercalated sediment layers and was examined for all kinds of microfossils. We chose homogeneous peat sections for pollen analysis at decadal to centennial resolution. The inorganic geochemistry was analysed in 2 mm resolution (corresponding >2 years) using an ITRAX X-ray fluorescence core scanner. We interpret phases of relatively high abundances of Poaceae pollen in our record as an expansion of Andean grasslands during humid phases. Drier conditions are indicated by a significant decrease of Poaceae pollen and higher abundances of Asteraceae pollen. The results are substantiated by changes in arsenic contents and manganese/iron ratios, which turned out to be applicable proxies for in situ palaeoredox conditions. The mid-Holocene period of 8.6–5.6 ka is characterised by a series of episodic dry spells alternating with spells that are more humid. After a pronounced dry period at 4.6–4.2 ka, conditions generally shifted towards a more humid climate. We stress a humid/relatively stable interval between 1.8 and 1.2 ka, which coincides with the florescence of the Nasca culture in the Andean foothills. An abrupt turn to a sustained dry period occurs at 1.2 ka, which is contemporaneous with the demise of the Nasca/Wari society in the Palpa lowlands. Markedly drier conditions prevail until 0.75 ka, providing evidence of the presence of a Medieval Climate Anomaly. Moister but hydrologically highly variable conditions prevailed again after 0.75 ka, which allowed re-expansion of tussock grasses in the highlands, increased discharge into the Andean foreland and resettling of the lowlands during this so-called late Intermediate Period (LIP). On a supraregional scale, our findings can ideally be linked to and proved by the archaeological chronology of the Nasca–Palpa region as well as other high-resolution marine and terrestrial palaeoenvironmental records. Our findings show that hydrological fluctuations, triggered by the changing intensity of the monsoonal tropical summer rains emerging from the Amazon Basin in the north-east, have controlled the climate in the study area.
On inclusion of water resource management in Earth system models – Part 1: Problem definition and representation of water demand
Authors: Nazemi A. , Wheater H. S.
Published: January 2015

Abstract. Human activities have caused various changes to the Earth system, and hence the interconnections between human activities and the Earth system should be recognized and reflected in models that simulate Earth system processes. One key anthropogenic activity is water resource management, which determines the dynamics of human–water interactions in time and space and controls human livelihoods and economy, including energy and food production. There are immediate needs to include water resource management in Earth system models. First, the extent of human water requirements is increasing rapidly at the global scale and it is crucial to analyze the possible imbalance between water demands and supply under various scenarios of climate change and across various temporal and spatial scales. Second, recent observations show that human–water interactions, manifested through water resource management, can substantially alter the terrestrial water cycle, affect land–atmospheric feedbacks and may further interact with climate and contribute to sea-level change. Due to the importance of water resource management in determining the future of the global water and climate cycles, the World Climate Research Program's Global Energy and Water Exchanges project (WRCP-GEWEX) has recently identified gaps in describing human–water interactions as one of the grand challenges in Earth system modeling (GEWEX, 2012). Here, we divide water resource management into two interdependent elements, related firstly to water demand and secondly to water supply and allocation. In this paper, we survey the current literature on how various components of water demand have been included in large-scale models, in particular land surface and global hydrological models. Issues of water supply and allocation are addressed in a companion paper. The available algorithms to represent the dominant demands are classified based on the demand type, mode of simulation and underlying modeling assumptions. We discuss the pros and cons of available algorithms, address various sources of uncertainty and highlight limitations in current applications. We conclude that current capability of large-scale models to represent human water demands is rather limited, particularly with respect to future projections and coupled land–atmospheric simulations. To fill these gaps, the available models, algorithms and data for representing various water demands should be systematically tested, intercompared and improved. In particular, human water demands should be considered in conjunction with water supply and allocation, particularly in the face of water scarcity and unknown future climate.
On inclusion of water resource management in Earth system models – Part 2: Representation of water supply and allocation and opportunities for improved modeling
Authors: Nazemi A. , Wheater H. S.
Published: January 2015

Abstract. Human water use has significantly increased during the recent past. Water withdrawals from surface and groundwater sources have altered terrestrial discharge and storage, with large variability in time and space. These withdrawals are driven by sectoral demands for water, but are commonly subject to supply constraints, which determine water allocation. Water supply and allocation, therefore, should be considered together with water demand and appropriately included in Earth system models to address various large-scale effects with or without considering possible climate interactions. In a companion paper, we review the modeling of demand in large-scale models. Here, we review the algorithms developed to represent the elements of water supply and allocation in land surface and global hydrologic models. We note that some potentially important online implications, such as the effects of large reservoirs on land–atmospheric feedbacks, have not yet been fully investigated. Regarding offline implications, we find that there are important elements, such as groundwater availability and withdrawals, and the representation of large reservoirs, which should be improved. We identify major sources of uncertainty in current simulations due to limitations in data support, water allocation algorithms, host large-scale models as well as propagation of various biases across the integrated modeling system. Considering these findings with those highlighted in our companion paper, we note that advancements in computation and coupling techniques as well as improvements in natural and anthropogenic process representation and parameterization in host large-scale models, in conjunction with remote sensing and data assimilation can facilitate inclusion of water resource management at larger scales. Nonetheless, various modeling options should be carefully considered, diagnosed and intercompared. We propose a modular framework to develop integrated models based on multiple hypotheses for data support, water resource management algorithms and host models in a unified uncertainty assessment framework. A key to this development is the availability of regional-scale data for model development, diagnosis and validation. We argue that the time is right for a global initiative, based on regional case studies, to move this agenda forward.

Published: January 2015

No Estado do Paraná, a Deliberação nº 01/06 do Conselho Estadual de Educação prioriza o exercício da docência do Ensino Religioso nos anos iniciais do Ensino Fundamental para os pedagogos e nos anos finais, entre outras licenciaturas, exige-se especialização em Ensino Religioso. Com o objetivo de investigar a formação do pedagogo para atuar com essa disciplina, realizou-se um levantamento de documentos, leis federais, estaduais e um estudo da grade curricular de quatro Instituições de Ensino Superior (IES) que ofertam a graduação em Pedagogia presencial, na cidade de Cascavel, Paraná. Os resultados desses dados indicaram a ausência de conteúdos que relacionem conhecimentos de ênfase  científica  a  conhecimentos  sobre  cultura  religiosa  nas  quatro instituições investigadas. Conclui-se que, não obstante a existência de leis que assegurem a disciplina de Ensino Religioso nas escolas de Ensino Fundamental, é emergente a necessidade de políticas efetivas que promovam a profissionalização dos pedagogos para esta área do conhecimento, inserindo nas grades curriculares dos cursos de formação inicial conteúdos ou disciplina com os fundamentos para a docência do Ensino Religioso.

Da psicologia cognitiva à cognição musical: um olhar necessário para a educação musical
Authors: Meirelles Alexandre , Stoltz Tania , Lüders Valeria
Published: January 2015

O presente artigo é um estudo bibliográfico que aborda como o domínio de conhecimento da música foi influenciado pela psicologia cognitiva, formando a disciplina de psicologia da música, ou como alguns autores denominam cognição musical. Esta recente aproximação trouxe certa interdisciplinaridade proporcionando avanços na compreensão de como a mente humana relaciona-se com a música. Aborda-se também neste texto como  recentes pesquisas em cognição musical podem contribuir para a educação musical e para a educação como um todo. Nesse sentido, a literatura tem apontado a influência sociocultural no aprendizado informal e no desenvolvimento de habilidades cognitivas multimodais no que tange a educação musical formal. Conclui-se que a educação musical deve levar em conta os avanços das ciências cognitivas integrando e repensando novas formas de ensino que abarquem a cognição como um todo.
FATORES AMBIENTAIS QUE AFETAM A EFICÁCIA DE GLIFOSATO: SÍNTESE DO CONHECIMENTO

Published: January 2015

A presente revisão objetivou organizar e sintetizar o conhecimento disponível na literatura com respeito aos fatores ambientais que afetam a eficácia do glifosato. Foram abordados os seguintes aspectos: temperatura, umidade relativa do ar, solo, irradiância, disponibilidade de nutrientes e o estado nutricional das plantas, ocorrência de chuva após a aplicação do produto, assim como a interação entre o ambiente e as características morfológicas e fenológicas das plantas. Verificou-se que, em geral, temperatura e estado nutricional das plantas ótimos para o crescimento vegetal favorecem a eficácia do glifosato no controle de infestantes. Umidade relativa do ar superior a 65 % tende a facilitar a absorção do herbicida. Irradiância elevada auxilia a ação de glifosato, mas há espécies vegetais em que o sombreamento parcial favorece o controle com o herbicida. A maioria dos trabalhos da literatura consultados trata da avaliação do efeito de fatores isoladamente. No entanto, como em condições reais ocorre a associação dos fatores de estresse mencionados há a necessidade de trabalhos de campo que avaliem a interação entre eles.

Published: January 2015

O objetivo deste trabalho foi avaliar o efeito dos herbicidas diuron + hexazinona, ametrina + clomazona e sulfentrazona sobre a população de Cotesia flavipes, parasitoide da broca da cana-de-açúcar. Foram avaliadas cinco doses dos herbicidas (½ D, ¼ D, 1 D, 2 D e 4 D, sendo D = dose comercial de cada produto) e a testemunha sem herbicida. Os produtos foram pulverizados diretamente no inseto, na fase de massas (casulos), ou mediante contato indireto nas folhas de cana-de-açúcar, visando atingir o inseto adulto. A porcentagem de viabilidade de casulos foi observada até 120 horas após o tratamento e a mortalidade causada pelo efeito do contato indireto monitorada após 72, 96 e 120 horas da aplicação. Os resultados mostraram que o contato direto dos herbicidas ametrina + clomazona e sulfentrazona com os casulos apresentaram efeito negativo quando utilizadas doses maiores que a comercial. Já para diuron + hexazinona não houve impacto negativo significativo. O contato indireto sobre os insetos adultos causou aumento inicial da mortalidade em todos os tratamentos. Os resultados indicaram baixa influência dos herbicidas para a população de C. flavipes, mas o contato das vespas com folhas pulverizadas pode reduzir o tempo de vida do parasitoide.

Novas demandas nas práticas do profissional de Contabilidade têm surgido no contexto da convergência das normas nacionais de Contabilidade aos IFRS. Tais demandas sugerem a adoção de um novo paradigma educacional, buscando inserir na prática pedagógica mecanismos e didáticas de ensino que utilizem metodologias ativas, caracterizadas pelo diálogo entre professor e aluno, através do qual o conhecimento é construído em conjunto, suplantando a metodologia usualmente chamada de concepção educacional passiva. Esta pesquisa buscou identificar a concepção educacional utilizada em uma IES pública de Salvador. Foi adotado um enfoque interpretativo, com uso de técnicas qualitativas e quantitativas. Os resultados sugerem que há uma predominância do modelo educacional de concepção passiva, caracterizado por uma perspectiva dominante do professor como detentor do conhecimento, desfavorecendo o desenvolvimento de novos profissionais com perfil crítico, analítico, reflexivo. Uma parte substancial dos respondentes também deixou clara a percepção de que o uso mais intenso de metodologias ativas poderia contribuir para formar profissionais com o perfil que o mercado tem buscado.
EVIDÊNCIAS DE PRÁTICAS DA GESTÃO DE CUSTOS INTERORGANIZACIONAIS NA CADEIA DE VALOR DE HOSPITAIS PRIVADOS NO BRASIL
Authors: Camacho Reinaldo Rodrigues , Rocha Welington , Moraes Romildo Oliveira , Marques Kelly Cristina Mucio
Published: January 2015

Este estudo teve como objetivo investigar, em organizações hospitalares no Brasil, evidências de práticas de Gestão de Custos Interorganizacionais (GCI). Como instrumento de coleta de dados, um questionário estruturado foi elaborado e aplicado a uma população de 40 hospitais privados brasileiros no período de Maio a Julho de 2010. A análise dos dados é qualitativa e os resultados, por serem obtidos a partir de uma amostra intencional, não podem ser extrapolados para todos os hospitais privados brasileiros. O instrumento de coleta de dados permitiu colher evidências de que há indícios da prática da GCI nos hospitais pesquisados, a saber, por meio de: compras consignadas; compras programadas e empacotamento de serviços. Das práticas de GCI identificadas nos hospitais pesquisados, apenas o ‘empacotamento de serviços’ pode ser considerado como sendo uma prática de GCI exclusiva do setor hospitalar. As outras duas, embora estejam sendo praticadas por hospitais, não são exclusivas do setor. De acordo com as declarações dos hospitais pesquisados a GCI não recai sobre custos de diárias, por exemplo. Também não há evidências de sua prática sobre processos internos, como por exemplo, cirurgias, esterilização de materiais, processamento de roupas, exames, etc. Como um último achado considerado relevante, destaca-se o fato de que em se tratando de ‘divisão justa de benefícios econômicos’ advindos de uma possível prática de GCI, na percepção dos hospitais, as expectativas maiores recaem sobre seus fornecedores.

Published: January 2015

Portugal e Brasil têm em comum uma língua e um passado. Apesar desse vínculo, quando se estuda a literatura dos dois países, seja no Brasil, seja em Portugal, a tendência é a de se separarem as produções, como se de duas séries literárias distintas se tratasse. Sem nos aprofundarmos nos motivos para tal, vale lembrar o papel de um texto como “Literatura e cultura de 1900 a 1945”, de Antonio Candido, na constituição de um distanciamento entre os dois países, marcado pelo esforço brasileiro de independência da matriz portuguesa, que se teria consolidado plenamente na altura do movimento modernista. O artigo de Candido atribui um papel central à literatura, que transcende os limites do campo estético para ser instrumento da construção da auto-imagem nacional. Apesar do distanciamento no que diz respeito à crítica literária praticada nos dois países, é possível observar, em um artigo como “Da literatura como interpretação de Portugal”, de Eduardo Lourenço, um esforço análogo ao de Candido quando coloca a literatura naquela posição privilegiada. A este artigo interessará discutir os pontos de contato e de afastamento dos dois críticos em suas abordagens do literário como instância de reflexão privilegiada acerca da cultura e das identidades nacionais brasileira e portuguesa.

Published: January 2015

Desde os primórdios o leite vem sendo cada vez mais indispensável na alimentação humana. Com isso, a preocupação com a segurança alimentar e com a qualidade do leite vem sendo cada vez mais observada e controlada a fim de se obter alimento seguro para o consumidor. As análises sobre a composição do leite se tornaram rotina no dia-a-dia dos laticínios. Sendo assim, o presente artigo tem por objetivo realizar uma análise do leite recebido por um laticínio na cidade de Iretama no Paraná, verificando, através do Controle Estatístico do Processo (CEP) se o leite cru refrigerado recebido pela indústria está respeitando os parâmetros estabelecidos por lei. Para realizar esse estudo, foram levantados dados de um mês de trabalho sobre as análises realizadas no leite cru refrigerado no instante de sua coleta para o transporte até a indústria. Foi empregado as cartas de controle do processo para averiguar se os índices das análises de teor de gordura, proteína, Alizarol, acidez e extrato de seco desengordurado (ESD) estavam em conformidade com a normativa 62. Os resultados mostram que as análises de ESD e de proteína estão dentro dos limites de controle e as demais com alguma alteração no processo. Sugere-se, que para um estudo mais aprofundado dos parâmetros avaliados, uma avaliação com no mínimo seis meses de dados, para um estudo mais concreto ao longo do processo.

GEOGRAFIA DA RELIGIÃO, ESPAÇO SAGRADO E O CULTO DE CEIA: ALGUMAS ESPACIALIDADES DO PROTESTANTISMO BATISTA E DO PENTECOSTALISMO ASSEMBLEIANO
Authors: Pereira Clevisson J.
Published: January 2015

O presente trabalho, apoiado na categoria espaço sagrado, explora parte dos meandros da experiência religiosa protestante e pentecostal; principalmente aquelas que dizem respeito às espacialidades da prática cúltica. Para tanto, se vale de duas comunidades religiosas diferentes – uma representada pela Primeira Igreja Batista de Curitiba e outra por uma congregação da Igreja Evangélica Assembleia de Deus de Curitiba – no intuito de prover realidades distintas, mas que de certa forma partilham de um mesmo “momento ritual”: o culto de ceia. Assim, com base em uma “mesma” dinâmica religiosa – a do culto de ceia – este artigo estuda algumas espacialidades presentes nos “espaços sagrados” do culto batista e do culto assembleiano. A intenção do presente artigo é evidenciar como diferentes espacialidades, resultantes preponderantemente de distintas “teologias”, estruturam e dão o tom dos espaços de experiência religiosa de ambas as tradições de fé evangélica – identificadas nos momentos de culto, em especial no culto de ceia.
ESPAÇO E LUGAR SAGRADO: VIVÊNCIA E PERCEPÇÃO PENTECOSTAL ASSEMBLEIANA
Authors: Moura Luana Cristina Baracho de
Published: January 2015

Este estudo objetiva produzir reflexão sobre o conceito geográfico de lugar sagrado. O grupo social religioso selecionado para esta ponderação é integrante da Igreja Assembleia de Deus – AD, que se caracteriza como protestante e pentecostal e se difundiu espacial e culturalmente pelo Brasil a partir de 1911, impondo suas marcas à paisagem geográfica e à sociedade pelos últimos cem anos. O foco deste estudo incide sobre a interpretação de como o grupo social religioso membro da Igreja Assembleia de Deus Jardim 25 de Agosto constrói, percebe e vivencia o lugar sagrado. Através da análise das informações obtidas a partir da aplicação de um questionário a uma amostra qualitativa do grupo e de observações empíricas, foi possível obter informações que respondem satisfatoriamente ao objetivo inicial, além de produzir novos questionamentos, configurando este estudo em uma reflexão introdutória.
Associations and communities of cereal crops of the Łuków Plain. Part III. Intermediate and impoverished communities
Authors: Rzymowska Zofia , Skrajna Teresa
Published: January 2015

This paper is the third and final part of a study attempting to analyse associations and communities in cereal crops of the Łuków Plain. It contains a description of intermediate and impoverished communities established in cereal crops of the Łuków Plain. Patches with phytocenoses without the combination of species characteristic of cereal associations were frequently observed. Impoverished communities of the alliance Aperion spicae-venti established in winter cereal crops. In turn, in spring cereal crops phytocenoses including species characteristic of tuber and root crops were found; they represented either a community with species characteristic of Panico-Setarion or an intermediate community with species characteristic of Aperion spicae-venti and Polygono-Chenopodion. Such communities are established, among others, because of production intensification which changes habitat conditions. Some patches found in the study area were intermediate between the two most frequently observed associations Arnoserido-Scleranthetum and Vicietum tetraspermae.
More Than Two Koreas: Cultural Intersection and Chinese Korean Musicians in Contemporary South Korean Music Scenes
Authors: Koo Sunhee
Published: January 2015

On 23 June 2011, the Seongnam Municipal Troupe of Korean Traditional Performing Arts (hereafter, Seongnam Municipal Troupe) presented its twenty-eighth concert, entitled Hana toenŭn kyŭre ŭi ŭmak (Unifying Korean national music). The South Korean government has designated June as a month of commemoration for the nation's patriots and veterans. As many government troupes in South Korea would do in June, the Seongnam Municipal Troupe dedicated its regular concert series to the remembrance of national heroes, cherishing their patriotism and sacrifice. As stated in the concert programme, “this performance is put together to bless the people who died protecting their nation and to express compassion for the 10 million families separated between the two Koreas … wishing for the nation's reunion and unification in the near future” (Han 2011:2). In order to memorialize war victims and the tragedy of partition, the Seongnam Municipal Troupe was to showcase musical works selected from both North and South Korea. In the programme, Ch'oe Sang-hwa, guest director of the Troupe, remarked:

Today's concert intends to draw a comparison between different musical constructions of North and South Korea … For the last sixty years, each Korea has developed its own version of chont'ong iimak [traditional or national music]. While South Korea has endeavoured to preserve the performance practices of traditional Korea under the growing influx of western music … instead of transmitting the old tradition as is, North Korea has newly created its own national music by inventing new instruments and developing a new vocal style with bright and clear sound colour … (Ch'oe 2011:3)
Performing Transition in Mongolia: Repatriation and Loss in the Music of Kazakh Mobile Pastoralists
Authors: Post Jennifer C.
Published: January 2015

In 1991 the government of Kazakhstan began an effort to repatriate Kazakh peoples living outside of Kazakhstan in order to manage the significant cultural loss that had occurred during the Soviet period and to address national identity after the breakup of the Soviet Union. Kazakh residents of China, Mongolia, Turkey, Iran, and other locations were invited to return to their “historic homeland” where they were promised financial support, medical services, social assistance, housing, and land (UNDP 2006; Diener 2009). Many of the Kazakh families living outside of Kazakhstan are descendants of people who had been forced out or fled the country in the nineteenth and early twentieth centuries. Of particular interest to the programme were the Kazakh people of Mongolia, whom organizers in Kazakhstan believed to have retained older cultural practices longer than Kazakhs in other locations due to the unique geo-cultural circumstances they shared with other mobile pastoralists (Diener 2007). Over 70,000 Kazakhs (more than 50 per cent of their population) moved from Mongolia to Kazakhstan during the two decades that followed. Despite this statistic, the programme has not been entirely successful, due partly to difficulties in its administration in Kazakhstan and partly to the reception oforalmandar(returnees) by permanent residents of the country. Mongolian Kazakh repatriates have also suffered due to a sense of loss and attachment to place, and some have subsequently decided to return to their home country—to Mongolia (Diener 2005, 2009; Barcus and Werner 2010).
Escorting Lady Jing Home: A Journey of Chinese Opera, Gender, and Politics
Authors: Lam Joseph S. C.
Published: January 2015

In 1960–61, the Northern Kunqu Opera Troupe of China (Beifang Kunqu Juyuan; hereafter, Beikun) created Escorting Lady Jing Home (Qianli Song Jingniang; hereafter, Escorting), a masterpiece of kunqu theatre that is still regularly performed and enthusiastically embraced by twenty-first-century audiences (Chen 2010). Dramatizing a journey that Zhao Kuangyin (926–976), the founder of the Northern Song dynasty (960–1125), allegedly took with Lady Jing, Escorting tells a substantive story that has deeply touched Chinese hearts and minds, and triggered numerous discussions, both causal and serious. The story has not only appeared on kunqu stages, but has also been performed as cartoons, TV shows, movies, and regional Chinese operas. There is even a Jingnianghu (Lake Lady Jing)—a tourist theme park built at a scenic site outside Handan in Hebei Province, China—celebrating Jing's historical/fictional trip home.
Masculinized China vs. the Feminized West: Musical Intertextuality and Cultural Representations in Once Upon a Time in China I and II
Authors: Weng Po-wei
Published: January 2015

This article is an ethnomusicological inquiry into music in Chinese martial arts film. Film is a form of cultural performance in modern society. It conveys codified cultural messages, transforms social values, dramatizes myths, and comments on social conflicts. Film also engenders discourse that facilitates the building or rebuilding of personal and collective identities. As an ethnomusicologist, I am interested in the ways in which film music, like music in cultural performance, reflects the modern needs and desires of people crossing geographical and cultural boundaries. To study music in global cinema is to study how a modern form of performance interacts with its cultural heritages and contemporary sociocultural changes. Furthermore, the study of Chinese martial arts film music is an attractive topic in that it allows interdisciplinary dialogues among scholars in ethnomusicology, film studies, cultural studies, and Asian studies.
