Model of sustainable land management (study at Bukit Sepuluh Ribu area of Bungursari Sub-District, Tasikmalaya City, West Java)
Authors: Ramdhani Dadan , Utomo Suyud Warno , Thayib Hasrol , Wardhana Yuki
Published: November 2019

This study is associated with the increased pressure on hill resources due to land conversion that causes environmental degradation and leads to environmental unsustainability. The evenly spread hill known as Bukit Sepuluh Ribu, is a source of community life. The hill formed by the eruption of a volcano, has a land cover, namely close to forest vegetation. The study location is in Bukit Sepuluh Ribu area that has ecological, hydrological, geological and aesthetic environmental function. The concept of community empowerment through Agro-ecosystem can be a solution, thus the utilization of the hill is economically profitable and environmentally sustainable. There are land use unsuitability referring to the existing spatial plan (682.9 Ha), namely high densely settlement area (264.67 Ha), other agriculture (359.21 Ha) and mining areas (58.51 Ha), Through the concept of appropriate community empowerment in accordance with the rules and typology of hill areas can provide the potential benefits of ecosystems and produce products of economic value without damaging them. The concept of empowerment through dryland agro-ecosystem by combining forest-based agriculture activities is one of the solutions to the problem of land management.
Runaway O-star Bow Shocks as Particle Accelerators? The Case of AE Aur Revisited
Authors: Rangelov Blagoy , Montmerle Thierry , Federman S. R. , Boissé Patrick , Gabici Stefano
Published: November 2019

We present results of our Chandra/ACIS observations of the field centered on the fast, runaway O star AE Aur and its bow shock. Previous XMM-Newton observations revealed an X-ray “blob” near the IR arc tracing the bow shock, possibly a nonthermal source consistent with models of Inverse Compton scattering of dust IR photons by electrons accelerated at the shock. The new, subarcsecond-resolution Chandra data, while confirming the presence of the XMM-Newton source, clearly indicate that the latter is neither extended nor coincident with the IR arc and strongly suggest it is a background active galactic nucleus. Motivated by results published for the bow shock of BD+43°3654, we extended our study to the radio domain by analyzing archival EVLA data. We find no radio emission from the AE Aur bow shock either. The corresponding upper limits for the absorbed (unabsorbed) X-ray flux of 5.9(7.8) × 10−15 erg cm−2 s−1 (3σ) and, in the radio range of 2 mJy (1.4 GHz) and 0.4 mJy (5.0 GHz), are used to put constraints on model predictions for particle acceleration within the bow shock. In the “classical” framework of diffusive shock acceleration, we find that the predicted X-ray and radio emission by the bow shock is at least two orders of magnitude below the current upper limits, consistent with the systematic nondetections of up to 60 stellar bow shocks. The only exception so far remains that of BD+43°3654, which is probably the result of its very large mass-loss rate among runaway O stars.
The Initial Physical Conditions of the Orion BN/KL Fingers
Authors: Rivera-Ortiz P. R. , Rodríguez-González A. , Hernández-Martínez L. , Cantó J. , Zapata Luis A.
Published: November 2019

Orion BN/KL is an example of a poorly understood phenomena in star-forming regions involving the close encounters of young stellar objects. The explosive structure, the great variety of molecules observed, the energy involved in the event, and the mass of the region suggest a contribution to the chemical diversity of the local interstellar medium. Nevertheless, the frequency and duration of other, similar events have not been determined. In this paper, we explore a recent analytic model that takes into account the interaction of a clump with its molecular environment. We show that the widespread kinematic ages of the Orion fingers—500 to 4000 yr—are a consequence of the interaction of the explosion debris with the surrounding medium. This model explains satisfactorily the age discrepancy of the Orion fingers, and infers the initial conditions together with the lifetime of the explosion. Moreover, our model can explain why some CO streamers do not have an associated H2 finger.
Entre nature et culture : les grottes, cabinets de curiosités naturelles à l’époque moderne
Authors: Mattes Johannes , Cohen Claudine
Published: November 2019

Au début du xvii e  siècle, quelques savants européens s’intéressent aux parties cachées de la Terre du point de vue des collections d’antiquités et en tant que fenêtres sur le passé. Les grottes jouent alors le rôle de véritables cabinets de curiosités, où le monde souterrain s’appréhende comme espace de rencontre entre nature et culture. L’article examine la fonction d’intermédiaire du monde souterrain, son épistémologie et l’influence des premières collections sur les débats concernant la formation des minéraux des cavernes.
« On vit avec les rats »
Authors: Monjaret Anne
Published: November 2019

À partir d’une enquête ethnographique menée au tournant des années 2000 dans les services techniques d’hôpitaux parisiens aujourd’hui fermés, l’article revient sur les expériences ouvrières des sous-sols, appelés aussi « galeries », qui avaient pour but de relier les différents bâtiments pavillonnaires, supportaient tous les réseaux techniques et abritaient les ateliers. Le monde du dessous, des rats, sombre et sale, est le leur, se distinguant de celui du dessus, rattaché aux « blouses blanches », au soin et à l’hygiène. De cette situation, résulte une relégation spatiale et sociale de ces personnels de laquelle ils aspirent à s’affranchir.
Espaces souterrains et synergies spatiales
Authors: Barroca Bruno
Published: November 2019

Si plus de la moitié des Terriens vivent dans des milieux urbains, l’espace offert par le sous-sol reste un gisement faiblement mobilisé en dehors du génie urbain et de projets isolés. Malgré la forte densité de constructions saturant la surface, la réflexion urbaine ne considère que très rarement le souterrain comme un espace habitable, un espace de vie. Exploités par l’homme depuis plusieurs milliers d’années notamment pour en extraire des matériaux ou se protéger, les espaces souterrains sont depuis la première moitié du xx e  siècle empruntés par les citadins pour de multiples activités. Des synergies urbaines dessus-dessous se sont alors construites dans diverses métropoles, montrant l’intérêt d’exploiter l’espace souterrain pour la qualité de vie des urbains sur et sous terre.
Sous terre : bactéries et champignons en action
Authors: Selosse Marc-André , Paillart Bernard , Peyrière Monique
Published: November 2019

Le sol, ce matériau situé sous terre entre les couches géologiques et l’atmosphère, est peuplé d’un nombre considérable de micro-organismes dont on ne soupçonne pas l’existence. Pourtant ces organismes invisibles jouent un rôle incontournable pour toutes les espèces vivant au-dessus du sol, plantes et animaux. C’est ce que les méthodes de biologie moléculaire contemporaines aident à découvrir. Les bactéries font « tourner » les cycles des éléments de la matière dont se nourrissent les plantes, et peuvent entrer directement en associations à bénéfice réciproque (symbiose) avec les racines de certaines d’entre elles. Les champignons mycorhiziens construisent des réseaux avec et entre les racines, formant des symbioses (ou mycorhizes) par où s’échangent eau et sels minéraux vers la plante contre sucres vers le champignon. Un univers microbien du sol à étudier, en s’attachant à comprendre le fonctionnement de ses interactions.
La maternité lesbienne, un analyseur social
Authors: Mercader Patricia
Published: November 2019

À partir de sept interviews non directives de mères et coparentes lesbiennes, l’article montre, d’un point de vue psychosociologique, comment ces familles doivent s’arranger du cadre hétéronormatif, qui reste central dans leur vie et leur parentalité. Cet article croise, en les prolongeant, les approches sociologique de Descoutures et clinique de Ducousso-Lacaze. L’auteur envisage cette problématique à travers trois thèmes : 1/ le traitement de la stigmatisation sociale de l’homosexualité, qui les conduit à vivre leurs enfants comme exposés à un risque de discrimination et de violence, 2/ la place construite pour et par la compagne de la mère biologique, en appui sur les transformations contemporaines de la famille, 3/ la place donnée au masculin ou à la fonction paternelle par ces femmes qui, contrairement à la représentation populaire, en soutiennent clairement la nécessité pour leurs enfants.
Questions pour un… superviseur
Authors: Duval Héraudet Jeannine
Published: November 2019

Les trois premières rencontres en analyse clinique de la pratique avec une équipe d’ esat (établissement et service d’aide par le travail destiné à des travailleurs handicapés) ont confronté d’emblée l’auteur de l’article à des peurs, des mécanismes de défense et des résistances en provenance du groupe. À partir de l’analyse de ces séances, elle s’interroge sur ses propres ressentis, sur les effets du dispositif et de sa posture de superviseur quant au dépassement des sources de blocage et à l’implication de ces participants dans le travail proposé.
Sentiment d’urgence et expérience émotionnelle de la rencontre avec l’objet primaire
Authors: Pinto Olivia
Published: November 2019

C’est au cours de sa pratique de l’écoute dans un service de téléphonie sociale dédié aux victimes de violences conjugales que la question du sentiment d’urgence est venue interroger l’auteur. Comment aider l’autre à penser et continuer soi-même à penser quand le sentiment d’urgence éprouvé par cet autre vient sidérer sa propre pensée ? En appui sur les mouvements transférentiels et contretransférentiels lors de cinq entretiens uniques, l’article montre que le sentiment d’urgence vécu comme menaçant l’équilibre interne du sujet viendrait rejouer, à la lumière de la théorie de la pensée de Bion, le « vécu catastrophique » : expérience émotionnelle de la première rencontre avec l’objet primaire que l’écoutante, telle une mère « apte à rêver », viendrait limiter et transformer en expérience de frustration tolérable nécessaire à l’émergence de la pensée.
La notion d’idolâtrie dans la polémique contre le théâtre en France et en Angleterre aux XVI e et XVII e siècles : enjeux d’un argument récurrent
Authors: Goursolas Marie-Hélène
Published: November 2019

Le topos patristique du théâtre comme « chapelle des idoles » est repris dans les débats de l’époque moderne, où il prend des valeurs très diverses en France et en Angleterre, selon les contextes. L’étude des argumentations qui mobilisent la notion d’idolâtrie est révélatrice de la dynamique polémique, et de ce qui se joue sous l’apparente répétition du même.
La vraisemblance : un argument contre le théâtre ?
Authors: Zanin Enrica
Published: November 2019

La vraisemblance n’est pas seulement un élément constitutif de la théorie du théâtre, il s’agit aussi d’un argument utilisé contre le théâtre. Les théâtrophobes reprennent à leur compte la critique platonicienne du théâtre comme imitation fausse, mais finalement, ils s’en servent peu. En revanche, leurs critiques influencent et infléchissent la théorisation de la vraisemblance qui peut aussi se lire comme une défense du théâtre ou encore comme un effort subreptice pour le contraindre.
Haine du théâtre et démonologie : de la possession démoniaque à la catharsis
Authors: Saint Martin Marie
Published: November 2019

Les démonologues qui condamnent le théâtre, en tant que résidu du paganisme antique, appuient leur réflexion sur des bases aristotéliciennes médiatisées par leurs sources (Augustin et Tertullien en particulier), et le tableau de la possession démoniaque se trouve ainsi parfois contaminé par des arguments qui ressemblent fort à la description du phénomène cathartique que l’on peut trouver chez les auteurs anciens, suscitant un jeu de miroir entre ces deux champs, qui s’enrichissent mutuellement.
Haine du théâtre, haine des femmes : fascination et censure dans la réflexion théorique et dans la pratique théâtrale italiennes au XVIII e siècle
Authors: Fabiano Andrea
Published: November 2019

L’article explore le lien entre le discours antithéâtral et l’exposition du corps de la femme sur la scène au XVIII e  siècle. En analysant les observations de Riccoboni, Concina, Maffei et Goldoni, il met en évidence la tension entre une ligne théorique réformatrice et moralisante, qui accepte malaisément la présence de la femme et l’érotisation du théâtre, et une pratique théâtrale, qui fonde son succès sur l’utilisation consciente et ciblée du pouvoir de fascination du corps féminin.
« Regarder hardiment et avec plaisir » ou « détourner les yeux » ? Les dangers du théâtre pour les spectatrices (France-Angleterre, XVI e -XVII e siècles)
Authors: Lochert Véronique
Published: November 2019

Le public féminin se trouve enrôlé dans différents types d’argumentation dans le cadre de la polémique sur le théâtre. Caractérisées dans les textes par la faiblesse de leur constitution, leur émotivité et leur inclination aux passions, les femmes apparaissent comme les premières victimes du théâtre, dont elles révèlent la nocivité. Au-delà de la spécificité de leurs réactions, le rapport des spectatrices à la fiction dramatique contribue à l’analyse des modes d’action du théâtre sur le public.
De la condamnation de la mixité à la crainte de l’altération. Où sont les femmes dans la haine du théâtre ?
Authors: Nancy Sarah
Published: November 2019

Comment les théâtrophobes français du XVII e  siècle mobilisent-ils la référence aux femmes et au féminin ? Stigmatisation de la présence des spectatrices, mais aussi critique de la représentation comme effémination ou contagion, assimilation des effets du théâtre à ceux de la séduction féminine, ou mobilisation de ces figures de l’« autre » par excellence pour condamner le genre dramatique comme altération. La haine du théâtre témoigne ainsi d’inquiétudes liées au caractère construit des valeurs et des identités.

Mise en place d’un atelier pédagogique par les étudiants infirmiers anesthésistes pour les étudiants en soins infirmiers
Authors: Bocquet Jean-François , Coulmy Marie-Pierre , Minck Murielle
Published: November 2019

Introduction Une convergence de besoins a permis aux étudiants infirmiers anesthésistes d’animer, depuis quatre ans, un atelier pédagogique remportant un franc succès auprès des étudiants en soins infirmiers. Contexte Les soins travaillés (aspirations endotrachéales, ventilation manuelle, pose de canule oropharyngée et préparation pour une intubation orotrachéale) se caractérisent par une absence ou une faible opportunité d’apprentissage en stage. Une solution clinique a été apportée en s’appuyant sur les théories et processus de pédagogie active et expériencielle. Objectifs L’objectif de l’étude était d’évaluer la pertinence et les effets du dispositif mis en place par les étudiants infirmiers anesthésistes auprès des étudiants en soins infirmiers. Méthodes Une enquête analytique monocentrique quantitative à postériori a été menée sur l’ensemble des étudiants en soins infirmiers ayant participé. L’analyse statistique a été réalisée sous Excel © pour les questions fermées. Les unités d’analyse relevées dans les réponses de la question ouverte ont été traitées par catégorisation sémantique. Résultats L’atelier, plébiscité sur la forme et sur le fond, a permis l’acquisition des gestes selon les attendus. L’enseignement par les étudiants infirmiers anesthésistes est jugé moins stressant que lorsqu’un formateur intervient. Ils ont su susciter l’intérêt des étudiants en soins infirmiers (Esi) qui les considèrent comme légitimes aussi bien dans leurs compétences techniques que pédagogiques. Cependant, les étudiants en soins infirmiers restent prudents sur leur capacité à un an de savoir préparer et réaliser les gestes étudiés.
Congenital Methemoglobinemia: Rare Presentation of Cyanosis in Newborns
Authors: Viršilas Ernestas , Timukienė Lina , Liubšys Arūnas
Published: November 2019

Methemoglobin (MetHb) is an oxidized form on hemoglobin, which is unable to bind oxygen and consequently carry it to the tissues. Normally present in small quantities (<1%) without detrimental effects, its elevation produces hypoxemia which can be profound and even lethal. Methemoglobinemia is an abnormal increase of MetHb (>3%) of total hemoglobin. It can be classified in two types: hereditary and acquired. Acquired form is caused by exogenous oxidizing agents, such as nitrites or certain medications, while hereditary types of disease are the result of genetic deficiency in cytochrome B5 reductase, an enzyme responsible for MetHb reduction to hemoglobin. Little data is available on the epidemiology of methemoglobinemia. In general population only sporadic cases are described, while some isolated ethnic populations have increased incidence, possibly inherited from a common ancestor. We present a case of congenital methemoglobinemia in which detection of MetHb was hampered by faulty initial blood gas spectrometry results. A short literature review is also included.
Ultrasound-guided percutaneous intercostal nerve cryoneurolysis for analgesia following traumatic rib fracture -a case series-
Authors: Finneran IV John J. , Gabriel Rodney A. , Swisher Matthew W. , Berndtson Allison E. , Godat Laura N. , Costantini Todd W. , Ilfeld Brian M.
Published: November 2019

Background: Rib fractures are a common injury in trauma patients and account for significant morbidity and mortality within this population. Local anesthetic-based nerve blocks have been demonstrated to provide significant pain relief and reduce complications. However, the analgesia provided by these blocks is limited to hours for single injection blocks or days for continuous infusions, while the duration of this pain often lasts weeks. Case: This case series describes five patients with rib fractures whose pain was successfully treated with cryoneurolysis. Conclusions: Ultrasound-guided percutaneous cryoneurolysis is a modality that has the potential to provide analgesia matching the duration of pain following rib fractures.
Paradoxes in Eye Health Care in Low-Income Countries and Design Strategies for Mobile Health Technology to Overcome them
Authors: Kedir Nida Esmael , Geurts Luc , Vanden Abeele Vero
Published: November 2019

INTRODUCTION: Low income countries bear 90% of the burden of avoidable blindness. In particular, glaucoma is one of the major causes of visual impairment. Early detection is critical to avoid irreversible blindness due to this underdiagnosed disease. Mobile and connected technologies yield potential to support early detection. However, to realize this potential, they should be designed from a deep understanding of the needs of the local population, and the challenges unique to lowincome countries.OBJECTIVES: To gain a contextualized understanding of eye health care needs, and the challenges and opportunities for designing mobile health solutions for screening of glaucoma.METHODS: We conducted a qualitative user study at three different healthcare centres in Southwest Ethiopia, including semi-structured interviews with eight eye care health professionals and observations and informal interviews with 125 patients, at three different locations. Interview transcripts were analysed through inductive thematic analysis involving three iterations.RESULTS: Seven themes were initially identified after two iterations. The themes provided insight into the organization of eye health care and highlighted the challenges faced by eye care professionals and patients. An additional of three themes were identified in the third iteration which were formulated as paradoxes (“Money is not an issue, yet there is no money for glaucoma”, “Shortage of eye health care, yet the work is repeated over and over”, “The willing but uncooperative patient tested by the willing but unexperienced nurse”).CONCLUSION: Findings from this research bear the potential to inspire future designs of mobile health solutions targeting rural communities in Ethiopia and other LICs.
Analysis of the long-term effects of groundwater extraction on the water balance in part of the Urucuia Aquifer System in Bahia - Brazil

Published: November 2019

In agricultural regions where there is insufficient rainwater for cultivation, understanding the dynamics of surface water and groundwater is critical to assess the impact of increased well pumping on the water balance. The western region of the state of Bahia-Brazil, the largest area of agribusiness in the state, has experienced progressive occupation since the 1980s, resulting in pressure on water resources - mainly after the introduction of irrigation - and conflicts among water users. This study analyzed the effects of groundwater extraction by wells in a portion of the Urucuia Aquifer System. The methodology used was the simulation of groundwater flow in steady-state for three scenarios: i) without withdrawal of water by pumping wells; (ii) with current withdrawal rates; and (iii) with 60% additional extraction. After defining well production rates from field surveys (4.6 m3 s-1) and modeling of the aquifer base geometry (maximum thickness of 535 m), the steady-state models with and without pumping show that, in the long term, groundwater storage decreases by 2 km3 (0.8 m on average in the aquifer) without interference in the regional flow direction. The mass balance shows that the base flow of the main rivers is reduced by approximately 6% after current groundwater extraction and an additional 2.5% after additional extraction. The results point to a greater impact on surface water caused by a reduction in groundwater storage and related river base flow. This indicates the importance of maintaining and expanding the groundwater-level monitoring network.
Wood ash and water availability in the production of Paiaguás-grass

Published: November 2019

This study evaluated the production of Paiaguás grass (Urochloa brizantha) as a function of wood-ash doses and water availability in the Cerrado Oxisol. The experiment was carried out in a greenhouse with a randomized block design in a fractioned 5x5 factorial scheme, corresponding to five wood-ash doses (0; 8; 16; 24 and 32 g dm-3) and five soil water-availability scenarios (4; 8; 16; 32; 64 kPa) with four repetitions. The experimental design was based on the modified central compound and consisted of 13 treatments of wood-ash doses (g dm-3) and soil water-availability scenarios (kPa): 0-4; 0-16; 0-64; 8-8; 8-32; 16-4; 16-16; 16-64; 24-8; 24-32; 32-4; 32-16; 32-64. Soil volumetric moisture was monitored daily by means of the Diviner 2000 Capacitance Probe® for soil water replenishment according to the treatments. In 30-day intervals, three cuts were performed in the aerial part of the plants evaluating dry mass of leaves, stems, aerial part, number of leaves and of tillers. Data were subjected to analysis of variance and when significant to regression analysis, both up to 5% of error probability, through the statistical program SISVAR and response surface study using SAS. The combinations of wood ash doses with water soil tensions influence the productive characteristics of Paiaguás grass. Fertilization with wood ash reduces the effect of water stress on Paiaguás grass and this residue may be a viable alternative to partial replacement of mineral fertilization and safe disposal in the environment.
Water balance in soil covered by regenerating rainforest in the Paraíba Valley region, São Paulo, Brazil
Authors: Targa Marcelo Dos Santos , Pohl Emilson , Almeida Ana Aparecida da Silva
Published: November 2019

The objective of this study was to evaluate the water balance in a Red-Yellow Latosol covered by a regenerating rainforest for 30 years in the Una River Basin between April 2016 and March 2017. Field capacity (FC) and permanent wilting-point values (PWP) used to calculate the available water capacity (AWC) in the soil were determined by the soil moisture characteristic curve obtained in pots, which made it possible to determine the soil residual water content (g / g) from the measurement of water tension in 15 Watermark (TM) sensors installed at depths of 40, 60 and 120 cm. Precipitation during the period (1962 mm) was obtained from the automatic weather station located 300 m from the experimental area. Soil surface runoff was obtained from 5 collectors distributed in the experimental area. Precipitation was characterized by a maximum of 454 mm in January 2017 and no rain in July 2016. The actual evapotranspiration was 744 mm. There were 56 runoff events (SR) totaling 60 mm. The average soil water tension remained below 37 kPa in 67% of the studied period, a condition that kept the soil moisture content high. The soil water balance of the tropical forest area, up to 120 cm deep, kept soil water content near its maximum capacity (173 mm) 49% of the time and saturated 51% of the time, so that it generated deep drainage beyond 120 cm deep and 1023 mm deep.
Gagliardo–Nirenberg Inequality for rearrangement-invariant Banach function spaces
Authors: Fiorenza Alberto , Formica Maria Rosaria , Roskovec Tomáš G. , Soudský Filip
Published: November 2019

The classical Gagliardo–Nirenberg interpolation inequality is a well-known estimate which gives, in particular, an estimate for the Lebesgue norm of intermediate derivatives of functions in Sobolev spaces. We present an extension of this estimate into the scale of the general rearrangement-invariant Banach function spaces with the proof based on the Maz’ya’s pointwise estimates. As corollaries, we present the Gagliardo–Nirenberg inequality for intermediate derivatives in the case of triples of Orlicz spaces and triples of Lorentz spaces. Finally, we promote the scaling argument to validate the optimality of the Gagliardo–Nirenberg inequality and show that the presented estimate in Orlicz scale is optimal.
How Do Different Keyword Captioning Strategies Impact Students’ Performance in Oral and Written Production Tasks? A Pilot Study
Authors: He Long
Published: November 2019

As an increasingly popular format of input, the affordances of audio-visual materials have been widely studied. Past research has provided evidence that audio-visual input combined with different captioning strategies could benefit learners in terms of vocabulary learning, listening comprehension, and the development of grammatical knowledge. However, there is a lack of research on how manipulating captioning conditions could help learners use their own linguistic resources to produce L2. This study compares the effects of three captioning techniques, L1 glossed keyword captioning, keyword captioning, and no captioning on English learners’ oral and written recall of a short video. The results show that L1 glossed keyword captioning worked better in facilitating students’ oral and written production of the keywords than keyword captioning and no captioning. L1 glossed keyword captioning was also found to be more useful than keyword captioning and no captioning in helping students comprehend and reproduce the content of the video. Suggestions for further research on this topic are presented in the final part of this paper.

Do Arsenal de Guerra para o mundo operário mais amplo: estudo centrado na Sociedade Bolsa de Caridade (1872-1930)
Authors: Lima Celina Batalha Oliveira
Published: November 2019

A Sociedade Bolsa de Caridade do Arsenal de Guerra da Bahia foi fundada em 8 de maio de 1872. De início, tratava-se de uma associação mutualista fechada, restrita aos operários aquela instituição. Ela foi gradualmente eliminando entraves, até tornar-se uma agremiação aberta aos indivíduos de qualquer ocupação, sexo ou nacionalidade. A presente pesquisa acompanhou a trajetória da associação desde a sua fundação, até o ano de 1930, buscando compreender o que representava o associativismo mutualista para os próprios filiados ao longo desse período. Nesse sentido, este artigo procura apresentar a composição social da agremiação e a rede de relações de seus membros com outras associações de auxílio-mútuo, especialmente a avultada participação de seus filiados no corpo diretivo de diversas outras sociedades operárias de Salvador.
A política esportiva brasileira: de ‘política de estado’ ao ‘estado da política’
Authors: Castellani Filho Lino
Published: November 2019

Este ensaio traz reflexões acerca da configuração da política esportiva brasileira, se valendo da experiência do autor como pesquisador do tema e, em determinados momentos, gestor público das referidas políticas. Busca expressar a ausência de política esportiva em seu caráter de “política de Estado”, tecendo considerações sobre os momentos em que mais próximo desse caráter ela esteve, e a oportunidade então perdida. Traz, por fim, entendimento da presença dela no atual Governo, apontando um “estado de política esportiva” totalmente desqualificado em sua possibilidade de alçar-se ao nível de política de Estado. Estado esse que dá sinais visíveis da intenção governamental de militarização da sociedade brasileira, tendo a política esportiva, capitaneada pelas Forças Armadas, como sua fiel escudeira.
Efeitos da acumulação de sujeira sobre o desempenho de módulos fotovoltaicos
Authors: Araújo Danielly Norberto , Marques de Carvalho Paulo César , Dupont Ivonne Montero
Published: November 2019

O interesse no uso de energia solar para geração de eletricidade tem conduzido pesquisas sobre os parâmetros que interferem no desempenho de módulos Fotovoltaicos (FV). A sujeira é um dos parâmetros que impacta negativamente, pois sua acumulação impede que a irradiação solar incida diretamente na superfície dos módulos. Vários estudos têm sido realizados retratando os impactos da sujeira em diferentes lugares do mundo. Assim, o presente artigo tem como objetivo proporcionar uma visão das experiências brasileiras e internacionais que abordam o tema. Além disso, é apresentado um estudo sobre o impacto da sujidade no desempenho de uma planta FV instalada no Campus do Pici da UFC em Fortaleza, Ceará. Os resultados mostram que, devido à sujidade, a perda máxima de eficiência da planta FV é de 16,52% enquanto a perda de eletricidade gerada chega a 11,71% para um período de 17 dias sem chuva. Após uma chuva de 0,6 mm, é registrado um aumento de 9,09% da eletricidade gerada e de 6,20% da eficiência da planta.

The government has in recent years implemented large-scale investments to
develop transport and logistics infrastructures. Combined with business climate
reforms, this development strategy has fueled strong growth and positioned Djibouti
well to become a regional trade and logistics hub. However, it has come at the cost of
rising debt vulnerabilities, and fiscal revenues have lagged due to large tax expenditure.
Despite some progress on social indicators, unemployment and poverty remain high.

Since 2014, the CBBH has been exposed to a negative spread on the reinvestment of the
reserve requirements. Until 2014, the CBBH remunerated reserve requirements on the basis
of the returns achieved on their reinvestment in the euro area money market. In 2014, when
the European Central Bank (ECB) cut the deposit facility rate below zero, the CBBH decided
not to follow the ECB in the remuneration of reserve requirements and to floor such
remuneration to zero. Subsequently, in 2016, the CBBH decided to remunerate excess
reserves at 50 percent of the ECB deposit facility rate and to continue remunerating reserve
requirements at 0 percent. This exposes the CBBH to a negative spread of about 0.25 percent
and 0.45 percent between the reinvestment yield and the remuneration of excess reserves and
reserve requirements, respectively.

Despite a challenging external environment, improved fiscal management and
economic diversification have strengthened the resilience of Morocco’s economy in
recent years. Yet, economic growth, at 3 percent in 2018, has not been robust enough
and unemployment remains high, especially among the youth. The outlook also
remains subject to elevated risks, including fragile recovery in the euro area and

Working memory in Cantonese and German speaking dyslexic children
Authors: Witruk Evelin
Published: November 2019

Background

The performance of visual and auditory working memory together with different automated central executive functions was investigated on the basis of four computerized, adaptive task sets with measurement of accuracy and reaction time.

Participants and procedure

Eighty-six children selected from 192 dyslexic and nondyslexic children (mean age = 10.29 years) in Hong Kong and Leipzig were matched on intelligence by using the Culture Fair test (CFT 20) and age. The used reading and writing tests were language specific but scientifically similar. Four task sets with visual material (dot and line patterns) and auditory material (tone sequences) were adapted and randomly presented by a computer. Mean and maximum accuracy and speed parameters were measured. The hypotheses of dyslexia deficits and Chinese superiority in working memory performance on nonverbal material were examined.

Results

The Cantonese speaking children were found to have a working memory advantage in the speed measure on all four task sets with visual and auditory stimulus presentation, and in the accuracy measure on the auditory tasks only. Dyslexia deficits were only found in the Chinese sample for the maximum performance parameters and one auditory task set. In the German sample, the dyslexia deficits were found to be more generalized in the auditory matching and reproduction task sets concerning mean and maximum accuracy and speed parameters.

Conclusions

The novel approach in this study concerns the new paradigm of adaptive, time efficient testing of working memory functions with nonverbal, auditory and visual material.
‘I’m a Local…’
Authors: Anderson Leticia Claire , Cumings Rob , Gatwiri Kathomi
Published: November 2019

This article discusses the impact and implications of ‘I’m a Local…’, an initiative developed in partnership between a regional university, a refugee resettlement community organisation and former refugees from African nations in a regional Australian community. The initiative sought to improve understandings about refugees, acknowledge their contributions to Australian society and support local, inclusive cultures. It included the development of public resources exploring the process of former refugees in establishing a sense of belonging and becoming ‘locals’. Racialised ‘Others’ continue to be excluded from ‘belonging’ within Australian communities at a wide range of practical and symbolic levels, so it remains an ongoing challenge to broaden the experience of belonging, challenge the borders erected around ‘local’ identities, and work to transform Australia’s post-colonial paradigm. ‘I’m a Local…’ provides an instructive example of how change agents from different sectors working collaboratively can dismantle prevailing discourses and affirm more inclusive and hopeful futures.
Future TRFs and GGOS – where to put the next SLR station?
Authors: Kehm Alexander , Bloßfeld Mathis , König Peter , Seitz Florian
Published: November 2019

Abstract. Satellite Laser Ranging (SLR) is one of the four geodetic space techniques contributing to the realisation of terrestrial reference frames (TRFs) as well as to the determination of Earth Rotation Parameters (ERPs). The current SLR tracking network suffers from an insufficient network geometry due to a lack of stations especially in the southern hemisphere. Previous simulation studies have shown that the extension of the global SLR tracking network is indispensable for reaching the target accuracy of future TRFs according to user requests and the ambitious goals of the Global Geodetic Observing System (GGOS). The simulation study presented here puts the focus on a determination of the locations where additional SLR stations are most valuable for an improved estimation of the geodetic parameters. Within the present study, we perform a simulation of a set of stations distributed homogeneously over the globe and compare different solutions, always adding one of these simulated stations to the real SLR station network. This approach has been chosen in order to be able to investigate the deficiencies of the existing SLR network and to judge in which regions on the globe an additional SLR station would be most valuable for the improvement of certain geodetic parameters of SLR-derived reference frames. It is shown that the optimum location of a future SLR station depends on the parameter of interest. In case of the ERPs, the main potential for improvement by a single additional station can be shown for locations in polar regions (improvement for ypole up to 7 %) and for locations along the equator for the lengh of day (LOD, improvement up to 1.5 %). The TRF parameters would benefit from an additional station around the pierce points of the axes of the terrestrial reference frame (improvement for ty up to 4 %), the Arctic and the Pacific Ocean region (tz improved by up to 4.5 %), and the Antarctic and the Indian Ocean region (scale improved by up to 2.2 %). As outcome of this study, it is concluded that an additional SLR site in the Antarctic region might be of first priority, enabling improvements in the pole coordinates and the scale of the TRF; potential further sites are recommended in the equatorial region, especially beneficial for the origin of the realised TRF as well as for LOD.
Statistical Reconstruction of Daily Precipitation and Temperature Fields in Switzerland back to 1864

Published: November 2019

Abstract. Spatial information on past weather contributes to better understand the processes behind day-to-day weather variability and to assess the risks arising from weather extremes. For Switzerland, daily-resolved spatial information on meteorological parameters is restricted to the period starting from 1961, whereas prior to that local station observations are the only source of daily, long-term weather data. While attempts have been made to reconstruct spatial weather patterns for certain extreme events, the task of creating a continuous spatial weather reconstruction dataset for Switzerland has so far not been addressed. Here, we aim to reconstruct daily, high-resolution precipitation and temperature fields for Switzerland back to 1864 with an analogue resampling method (ARM) using station data and a weather type classification. Analogue reconstructions are post-processed with an ensemble Kalman fitting (EnKF) approach and quantile mapping. Results suggest that the presented methods are suitable for daily precipitation and temperature reconstruction. Evaluation experiments reveal an excellent skill for temperature and a good skill for precipitation. As illustrated on the example of the avalanche winter 1887/88, these weather reconstructions have a great potential for various analyses of past weather and for climate impact modelling.
15N gas-flux method to determine N2 emission and N2O pathways: a comparison of different tracer addition approaches
Authors: Lewicka-Szczebak Dominika , Well Reinhard
Published: November 2019

Abstract. 15N gas flux method allows for quantification of N2 flux and tracing soil N transformations. An important requirement for this method is a homogeneous distribution of the 15N tracer added to soil. This is usually achieved by soil homogenization and admixture of the 15N tracer solution or multipoint injection of tracer solution to intact soil. Both methods may create artefacts. We aimed at comparing the results of the gas flux method using both tracer distribution approaches. Intact soil cores with injected 15N tracer solution show wider range of the results obtained. Homogenized soil shows better agreement between repetitions, but significant differences in 15N enrichment measured in soil nitrate and in emitted gases were also observed. For intact soil the wider variability of measured values rather results from natural diversity of non-homogenized soil cores than from inhomogeneous label distribution. Generally, comparison of the results of intact cores and homogenized soil did not reveal statistically significant differences in N2 flux determination. In both cases, pronounced dominance of N2 flux over N2O flux was noted. It can be concluded that both methods showed close agreement and homogenized soil is not necessarily characterized by more homogenous 15N label distribution.
Perseguir la herejía: libros prohibidos en el Colegio de la Santa Cruz de Querétaro
Authors: García Idalia
Published: November 2019

Entender cómo los inquisidores buscaban herejes librescos en las instituciones de Nueva España, requiere adentrarnos en el trabajo más cotidiano de las diversas estrategias de la censura de libros. Una de éstas fue el expurgo, un mecanismo que permitió eliminar ciertas partes de los textos que se consideraron nocivos o peligrosos para la ortodoxia religiosa. En este trabajo analizamos parte de esta tarea con una de las visitas inquisitoriales ordenadas en 1716 para las bibliotecas institucionales de la Nueva España, en particular la que se realizó en la biblioteca del colegio franciscano de la Santa Cruz en Querétaro. Dicho proceso ha permitido relacionar sus documentos, con libros expurgados procedentes del periodo colonial y que se conservan en bibliotecas. A través de uno de sus protagonistas, Fray Ángel García Luque, podemos comprender el trabajo del expurgo y repensar la cerrazón de los inquisidores novohispanos. Es una forma de adentrarnos en la cultura escrita de este territorio americano.
Ilegitimidad en Nueva Galicia. El caso de Aguascalientes, siglos XVII y XVIII
Authors: González Esparza Víctor M.
Published: November 2019

Tradicionalmente se ha asociado a la ilegitimidad con el mestizaje en la Nueva España; los estudios específicos se han realizado con bases de datos insuficientes de tal manera que han reafirmado un prejuicio que se observa desde la época colonial. El presente trabajo parte de una base de datos de 200 años para analizar el caso de la ilegitimidad en la parroquia de Aguascalientes y, en este sentido, observar el tema en el largo plazo y en términos comparativos. Los resultados muestran con matices las variaciones de la ilegitimidad en las diferentes "calidades" y, en términos historiográficos, la necesidad de ampliar las bases de datos para la historia serial y comparada.
University Social Responsibility and Sustainable Development Awareness: The Mediating Effect of Corporate Social Responsibility Case of Qassim University
Authors: Wided RAGMOUN
Published: November 2019

The aim of this research is to identify the components and practices of university social responsibility (USR) – a concept based on corporate social responsibility - and its impact on development and sustainability. Here, it is necessary to develop a new perception of universities, in which we learn, develop and act. This work results from an exploratory approach based on a literature review and observations at Qassim University. The first stage of this research will adopt a qualitative approach, to identify and understand how USR is defined by the university community. The main goal of this stage is the development of items which will be used to measure USR at Qassim University. The second stage is a quantitative approach applied through administration of a questionnaire. A hypothesis test is elaborated by LISREL 8.52 according to a structural equation model (SEM) in which corporate social responsibility is considered a mediating variable between development and sustainability. From this research, a critical path for USR can be defined based on practices. We will also be able to recommend a pathway for sustainable development based on USR.

Published: November 2019

Introduction: Colorectal cancer patients presenting with isolated bone metastases are exceedingly rare.

Case Report: A 72-year-old male patient appeared with a painless gross swelling in the anterior maxillary gingiva, nearly a year after anterior rectal resection for cancer. The patient was submitted to lesion excision and nasolabial flap reconstruction. Histology revealed an intestinal type adenocarcinoma. The patient underwent radiotherapy. The disease spread and our patient lost his battle with cancer.

Conclusion: Rectal tumor metastasis to maxillary bone is exceedingly rare and a high index of suspicion must be maintained in order to timely diagnose and treat it. Intraoral reconstruction with a nasolabial flap is a simple and fast procedure with good cosmetic and functional results.
