Local and imported pottery in the Neolithic Gulf: a new perspective from the site of Bahra 1 in Kuwait
Authors: Smogorzewska Anna
Published: July 2018

The paper presents a new perspective on pottery traditions in the Gulf during the Neolithic period, based on new data from the Ubaid-related site of Bahra 1 in Kuwait. The site yielded an assemblage containing several different pottery types, classified as Ubaid Ware and Coarse Red Ware. These pottery groups were varied in many aspects: morphological types, technology, and provenance. Their main characteristics and cultural context are discussed, as well as the cross--pottery connections. The significance of these ceramic vessels for the Gulf population and their socio-economic context are also considered in this paper, given the new evidence from Bahra 1
Trade and faith in Nubian Early Makuria (AD 450–550): macroscopic examination of personal adornments from el-Zuma in Nubia
Authors: Then-Obłuska Joanna
Published: July 2018

In the long history of the land between the Third and Fourth Cataracts on the Nile, the period corresponding to the times of Early Makuria is particularly well represented. The el-Zuma tumuli cemetery has been dated to the Early Makuria Phase II (AD 450–550). Although the graves were heavily robbed, the remains of personal adornments (beads, pendants, rings, and an earring) give a broad overview of materials (marine mollusk shell, coral, ostrich eggshell, stone, metal, faience, glass) and techniques applied in their production. A comparative synopsis of contemporary Nubian adornments shows parallels for the objects from el-Zuma. Moreover, the provenance of the materials and manufacturing techniques suggests el-Zuma’s involvement in regional and longdistance exchange during this period. Finally, the presence of a Christian symbol and imported beads in the el-Zuma tumuli is meaningful in itself.
Painted decoration of water jars from Byzantine Athribis in the Egyptian Delta
Authors: Południkiewicz Anna
Published: July 2018

Water jars are easily recognizable as a type owing to the strainer fitted into the neck of these vessels. This form was distinguished in the assemblage coming from the Polish excavations around Kom Sidi Youssuf in Tell Atrib, the site of ancient Athribis in the Nile Delta. The discussed vessels were made of Nile silt and richly painted on the surface. The article focuses on the decoration of these water containers, presenting a catalogue of motifs: geometrical, vegetal, zoomorphic, human and others. The set is dated to the 6th–7th century AD based on the excavation context and comparative studies of the so-called Coptic painted pottery from Egypt.
Mammals in the iconography of the Temple of Queen Hatszepsut: introduction to the project
Authors: Braulińska Kamila
Published: July 2018

The project “Mammals in the iconography of the Temple of Queen Hatshepsut”, initiated by the author in the 2011/2012 season, encompasses a detailed documentation of the animals depicted in various parts of Hatshepsut’s temple in Deir el-Bahari as a prerequisite for in-depth research. The study follows a multi-disciplinary approach within faunal analysis, and is complemented with technological observations on the execution of relief representations from the temple. At this stage of the project, a general taxonomic identification of the animal representations is nearly complete and a further detailed study of each taxon has been undertaken. Both complete animals (mainly mammals for now) and animal raw materials were studied in addition to the contexts and scenes in which they appear.
The enlarged doorway at the Dejser-akhet temple of Tuthmosis III in Deir el-Bahari
Authors: Wiercińska Janina
Published: July 2018

The issue of the enlargement of the entrance to the Bark Hall of the Djeser-akhet temple of Tuthmosis III at Deir el-Bahari was a major focus for the Polish restoration mission from the start. The widening of the passage was noted early on in the research and new data was forthcoming with every successive field season as the decoration of the entrance wall on either side of the Hypostyle Hall and of the Bark Hall was reconstructed. More detailed information continued to add to the recreation of the process of how and when these changes were introduced, as discussed by the author in earlier articles. Further fragments of relief decoration identified in recent years as originating from the cut sections of the walls have offered new data to supplement the author’s view, being at the same time a significant source of information on the original decoration predating the destruction phase in the Amarna period.

Published: July 2018

All periods of Egyptian history are represented at Gebelein and it encompasses many kinds of archaeological site found in the Nile valley (that is, cemeteries, settlements, fortifications, temples, rock quarries etc.). The area was a significant centre in the history of ancient Egypt, but its exact role and the reasons for its importance still awaits explanation. That is why the Gebelein Archaeological Project was initiated. The field survey of Gebelein, which started in 2014, aims to recognise the topography of the area and the degree of destruction of the sites and to locate archaeological remains as well as to determine their interpretation and dating. This report outlines the results of work conducted during seasons 2014, 2015 and 2016, which encompassed the archaeological and epigraphic field surveys, geophysical prospection as well as work conducted in the rock-cut chapel of Hathor.
Settlement history of Iraqi Kurdistan: an assessment halfway into the project
Authors: Koliński Rafał
Published: July 2018

The objectives of the “Settlement history of Iraqi Kurdistan” project include the identification and recording of archaeological sites and other heritage monuments across an area of more than 3000 km2 located on both banks of the Greater Zab river, north of Erbil. A full survey of the western bank was carried out over three field seasons, in 2013, 2014 and 2015 (leaving the Erbil/Haūler province to be studied in the next two seasons). To date, at least 147 archaeological sites dating from the early Neolithic Hassuna culture to late Ottoman times have been registered. Moreover, the project documented 39 architectural monuments, as well as the oldest rock reliefs in Mesopotamia dating from the mid 3rd millennium BC, located in the village of Gūnduk. Altogether 91 caves and rock shelters were visited in search of Paleolithic and Pre-Pottery Neolithic remains. The paper is an interim assessment of the results halfway into the project, showing the trends and illuminating gaps in the current knowledge.
Four encolpia from the monastery complex in Naqlun, Egypt: preliminary iconographic study
Authors: Ryś Agnieszka
Published: July 2018

The article discusses the iconography of the four cross-shaped encolpia made of lead that were discovered in a monastery complex in Naqlun, Egypt, in 2011. The pendants were found together, apparently mislaid in the northeastern corner of the main room of building K.1 (Northern Building). The iconographic analysis of the decorative elements on these encolpia is based on a comparison with other objects of this type coming from a Byzantine culture context. The dating based on the iconographic analysis is compatible with the archaeological context placing the deposition before the end of the 10th century
Metal garment elements from the Beshtasheni Late Bronze Age – early Iron Age cemetery in eastern Georgia
Authors: Hamburg Jacek , Pawłowska Katarzyna
Published: July 2018

The paper presents metal elements of garments and jewellery dating to the Late Bronze Age–Early Iron Age period (13th–6th century BC) coming from the excavation of the Beshtasheni cemetery in eastern Georgia carried out from the mid-1930s until 2014. A brief historical and cultural background, including a short description and chronology of the Beshtasheni cemetery, is given before presenting the assemblage of metal garment elements found in the graves: pins, belts and buckles, finger rings, bracelets, parts of buckles and beads, including a preliminary typology of some of these artifacts. The typology takes into account the decoration and shape, as well as ornamental elements and motifs. The paper goes on to describe the observed relation between metal garment elements and the gender and age of the deceased.
Delapril and Indapamide: Development and Validation of a Stability-Indicating Core-Shell LC Method and Its Application for Simultaneous Tablets Assay
Authors: Gonçalves Brenda R , Machado Anna K M S , Oliveira Paulo R , Barth Thiago , Sangoi Maximiliano S , Todeschini Vítor
Published: July 2018

Background: The combination of delapril (DEL) and indapamide (IND) may be regarded as an optimal drug treatment for hypertensive patients. However, there is no published study concerning the suitable stability conditions and evaluation of drugs in the raw material and commercial product. Objective: The aim of the present study was to develop an innovative, high-throughput, and stability-indicating LC method for the simultaneous analysis of DEL and IND in combined dosage form. Methods: Analyses were performed using a core-shell C18 column (100 mm × 4.6 mm id, 2.6 μm) at 45°C using isocratic elution for the mobile phase composed of triethylamine solution (0.3%, pH 5.0)–acetonitrile–methanol (58 + 35 + 7, v/v/v). The separation was obtained within 3.5 min at a flow rate of 1.0 mL/min and UV detection set at 213 nm. Results: The specificity and stability-indicating capability of the method were proven through degradation studies, which also showed that there is no interference of the formulation excipients, showing that the peak is free from any co-eluting peak. Conclusions: The method showed adequate precision, with relative standard deviation values lower than 1.85%. Excellent values of accuracy were obtained, with a mean value of 98.64% for IND and 98.65% for DEL. Experimental design was used during validation to calculate and prove the method robustness. Highlights: The proposed LC method was successfully validated according to International Conference on Harmonisation requirements and applied for the simultaneous determination of DEL and IND in tablets, presenting suitability for stability studies and contributing to improve the QC of pharmaceuticals.
The Functional and the Instrumental in Market Definition: a Laboratory for Natural Experiments in the Baltics

Reforms of natural monopolies need clear delineations between the industries where market mechanisms contribute to social welfare and those where the costs of a transition to a market economy outweigh the benefits. In this article, we emphasise the difficulty of finding the optimum modes of governance within industries as a whole. Using the tools of the transaction cost economics, we show that, alongside the problem of market boundaries and the resultant position and behaviour of a company — an object of antimonopoly regulation — it is necessary to consider the hypothesis about the market being a special mechanism for coordinating interactions between economic entities. In particular, such determinants of transactions as asset specificity, uncertainty, and frequency can create a basis for abandoning the price mechanism. Williamson’s heuristic models suggest that if an activity is characterized by high specificity, uncertainty, and frequency, the very organisation of this activity precludes transaction cost minimisation through the price mechanism employed either in full or in part (hybrid institutional agreements). This can be explained by excessive risks and ensuing high transaction costs. A more efficient solution is the organisation of interactions within a group of legal entities in control (within a single economic entity). In order to compare the practical implementation of institutional alternatives, we examine the modes of governance in the gas supply industry. A major focus is the Baltic region where two interconnected pipelines — the Nord Stream and the OPAL — were constructed. Different ways to handle transactions relating to gas supply were employed at the time. We compare these ways and conclude that it is necessary to consider the determinants of a transaction to select the best structural alternative and to avoid choosing a wrong governance structure.
One Belt - One Road Initiative: A Window of Opportunity for Russia’s Western Border Regions
Authors:   Southern Federal University, Druzhinin A. G. ,   Immanuel Kant Baltic Federal University, Dong Y. ,   Chinese Academy of Sciences
Published: July 2018

In recent years, global geo-economic transformations have been considerably affected by the development of the People’s Republic of China, its reviving leadership and ambitions, and its increasing efforts to reformat and integrate the Eurasian space. The One Belt — One Road Initiative is a manifesto and a tool to advance China’s long-term geostrategic interests that spread to the bordering states and regions and to the prospects of their socioeconomic development. The initiative encompasses transportation and logistics, production and investment, finances, research and technology, humanitarian affairs, and foreign policy. In this article, we will highlight the key geoeconomic and geopolitical aspects of the One Belt — One Road initiative implementation, based on the Chinese and Russian studies. Another goal is to weigh up the risks and benefits associated with the extension of the project to Russian territories. Special attention is paid to Russia’s western borderlands — 17 regions that account for 8.6 % of the country’s territory, 17.4 % of the total GRP, and 20.8 % of the national population. We analyse the factors in effect — including geopolitical ones, as well as current trends in the development of Russia’s western borderlands. It is shown that the inclusion into the Chinese Eurasian integration initiatives creates additional incentives for a positive re-evaluation of the Russian space as a whole and holds special relevance for Russia’s western borderlands. We analyse the possibility of including Russia’s Baltic regions — the infrastructural and economic island of the Kaliningrad exclave among them — into the One Belt — One Road Initiative.
Marine Spatial Planning: Theoretical Aspects
Authors:   Pacific Geographical Institute Far-Eastern Branch of Russian Academy of Sciences, Baklanov P. Ya.
Published: July 2018

In this article, I consider marine spatial planning (MSP) as a complex of analyses, calculations, and evaluations aimed to prove feasibility of economic activities and contribute to their development in a certain part of a sea or an ocean. A most likely comprehensive MSP object is an integrated segment of coastal/marine area. Consisting of a marine part and a coastal area, such segments are a product of zoning. In this article, I explore the key MSP stages — from identifying the panning object to evaluating the natural resource potential and performing calculations for relevant aquaterritorial structures. The basic principles of the geographical division of marine geosystems are the following ones: identifying relatively integrated marine sectors and relatively integrated coastal sectors and connecting them into a single whole. A hierarchical approach is key to transboundary marine basins. I propose the following techniques: geographical zoning, identification of an area and basin-specific combinations of natural resources, geoinformation modelling, and forecast analysis for different activities and relevant spatial elements of aquaterritorial structures.
Spatial Planning in the European Union: Practices to Draw on in Russia
Authors:   Saint Petersburg State University, Chistobaev A. I. , Fedulova S. I. ,   Saint Petersburg State University
Published: July 2018

In this article, we employ a systemic-complex methodology to consider the targets, functions, and content of spatial planning in European countries and compare them to urban planning practices in Russia. We analyse concepts and terminology used in spatial planning and related areas — territorial, marine, and underground planning. The article examines the evolution of the ideas of spatial planning in the EU. We consider the documentary framework for spatial planning from the last third of the 20th century to the present. The basic principles of spatial planning are identified in the article. We describe the level of territorial development management in the EU and its member states. The concept of ‘best practices’ is interpreted as an approach that includes the transfer of expert knowledge, concepts, ideas and practices developed in certain conditions and their adaptation to the needs of a different set of conditions in order to attain similar goals using the components of the transferred technique, model, or policy. We present a classification of spatial planning systems. We show how civil society is being involved in spatial planning in the EU and Russia. We stress the need to draw on the EU spatial planning experience, in particular, the involvement of civil society in project evaluation. At the same time, it is important to take into account the features of Russian natural and socioeconomic conditions.
O Ciclo das Rochas do Antropoceno: inserindo a agência humana no Sistema-Terra
Authors: Peloggia Alex Ubiratan Goossens
Published: July 2018

O conceito de Ciclo Geológico, ou Ciclo das Rochas, representa um modelo ideal de formação de novos materiais geológicos a partir de materiais geológicos preexistentes, e tem sido extensamente estudado e utilizado para a finalidade do ensino e divulgação das Geociências, ao longo de décadas. Todavia, os “ciclos” presentes nas publicações e livros-textos deixam de levar em consideração a atividade geológica humana, cuja importância tem sido amplamente reconhecida recentemente. Este trabalho justifica tal consideração e sugere um modelo de Ciclo Geológico incorporando processos e materiais geológicos produzidos pela humanidade que caracterizam o Antropoceno.
Caracterização das rochas da Formação Estrada Nova como matéria-prima cerâmica no Estado de São Paulo, Brasil
Authors: Christofoletti Sergio Ricardo , Rocha Rogers Raphael da
Published: July 2018

O presente artigo tem como objetivo estudar as características geológicas e tecnológicas das rochas argilosas da Formação Estrada Nova na região sudoeste do Estado de São Paulo, a fim de buscar novas matérias-primas para a indústria de revestimentos cerâmicos. Os estudos desenvolvidos mostraram que as rochas das diversas litofácies da Formação Estrada Nova, essencialmente constituídas por folhelhos e siltitos, quando submetidas à queima na temperatura de 950 °C adquirem características para serem utilizadas na produção de revestimentos porosos e na cerâmica estrutural. Em condições laboratoriais e industriais, nas temperaturas de 1120 e 1040 °C, algumas amostras das litofácies maciça e laminada apresentaram resultados satisfatórios para uso na produção de revestimento cerâmico pelo processo via seca, ou para incorporação na composição de massa para a produção de porcelanatos. As litofácies basais (maciça e laminada) são constituídas por partículas com curvas de frequência de tamanho mais homogêneas, enquanto as litofácies superiores (intercalada e arenosa) apresentam maior variação de tamanho de partículas. A homogeneidade da distribuição de tamanho das partículas encontrada nas amostras da litofácies maciça favoreceu o processo de moagem via seca, facilitando as etapas de densificação do produto. A presença mais elevada do CaCO3 no Membro Teresina em relação ao Membro Serra Alta ocasionou aumento de defeitos e queda na resistência mecânica. Nas amostras da litofácies folhelho síltico laminado (Membro Serra Alta), os altos valores de Perda ao Fogo aliados a baixos valores de CaCO3 evidenciam uma presença elevada de matéria orgânica, que resultou no inchaço dos corpos de prova devida a liberação de gases no seu interior, o que sugere uso destas como argilas expansivas.

Evolución histórica de la aplicación del derecho extranjero en el proceso civil español
Authors: Alonso Furelos Juan Manuel
Published: July 2018

Abordo en el trabajo la aplicación del derecho material privado en la sentencia —sea en primera instancia, en segunda o casación— en el proceso tramitado en España ante nuestros jueces y tribunales del orden civil de la jurisdicción ordinaria. Desde que existen textos legales conocidos y hasta la segunda mitad del S. xix se aplicó exclusivamente el derecho nacional tanto a los españoles como a los extranjeros, aunque se permitió excepcionalmente en dicha jurisdicción civil ordinaria y real la aplicación del derecho romano y canónico en cuanto formase parte de la «doctrina considerada auténtica» de determinados romanistas y canonistas. A partir de la segunda mitad del S. xix, por virtud de la LEC 1855 (juicio de reconocimiento de sentencias extranjeras) y la doctrina legal de nuestro Tribunal Supremo al pronunciarse en los recursos de casación por infracción de ley se permitirá la prueba y aplicación del derecho extranjero en el proceso civil seguido en España ante nuestros jueces y tribunales. (Aunque escasa fue su doctrina legal al pronunciarse sobre los recursos de casación por quebrantamiento de las formas esenciales del juicio referidas a la actividad probatoria del derecho extranjero causantes de indefensión). Este trabajo sigue el sistema histórico-cronológico destacando los periodos e hitos considerados más sobresalientes.I approach in the work the application of private material right in the judgment —be it in the first instance, in second or cassation— in the process processed in Spain before our judges and courts of the civil order of the ordinary jurisdiction. Since there are known legal texts and until the second half of the 19th century applied exclusively the national law both to the Spaniards and to the foreigners, although there was allowed exceptionally in the above mentioned civil ordinary and royal jurisdiction the application of the roman and canon law in all that it was forming a part of the «doctrine considered authentic» of certain romanists and canonists. From the second half of the 19th century, by virtue of the LEC 1855 (judgment of recognition of foreign judgments) and the legal doctrine of our Supreme Court on having declared in the appeals in cassation for infraction of law will allow itself the test and application of the foreign right in the civil process followed in Spain before our judges and courts. (although there was little legal doctrine to pronounce on appeals in cassation for breach of the essential procedure of the trial referred to the evidential activity of foreign law causing defenselessness). This work follows the historical-chronological system highlighting the periods and milestones considered most outstanding.
Erving Goffman, su perfil y su obra
Authors: Funes María Jesús
Published: July 2018

Este artículo presenta una breve semblanza de Erving Goffman enla que se intercalan su biografía personal y académica con su formación y desarrollocomo teórico e investigador. Determinados acontecimientos y circunstanciasde su vida personal fueron relevantes en su selección de temas de estudio y en laatención prestada a los mismos por lo que se facilitan al lector los más relevantes.Parafraseando su propuesta de análisis dramatúrgico he titulado esta imbricaciónentre obra y personaje: El actor en el escenario, el escenario de su propia vida yel del contexto de la sociología de su época. La reflexión sobre su encaje en lateoría sociológica contemporánea desarrolla principalmente, aunque no solo, eldebate sobre su dimensión estructuralista y/o interaccionista simbólica. Pero lasaportaciones de este texto comparado con otras revisiones de su obra son dos: sucontribución al estudio de las emociones, fundamentalmente el miedo como mecanismode control social (la culpa como miedo/castigo interiorizado, la comunidadsupervisora de la vida cotidiana, las instituciones…) y, desde ahí, la proximidadal trabajo de Foucault, rechazando la habitual crítica que se hace a Goffmancomo indiferente a las relaciones de poder.This article presents a biographical and academic approach toGoffman as a man and as a researcher and creator of sociological theory. Takinginto account that several circumstances and personal experiences had a huge influenceon his decisions about issues to study and on the special attention put on themhere we show some of the most relevant events. Following the dramaturgic metaphor,I have titled this part: The actor on the stage, the stage is his own life, thestage is the academic environment he lived in. The work about his position in thetheoretical develop of contemporary sociology focuses mainly, but not only in hissymbolic-interactionism even structuralism. However, the two relevant points ofthis work comparing with others review of his contribution are: the place gave tothe analysis of emotions, mainly the study of the effects of fear in social live associal control mechanism (as inner guilty; community into every step of everydaylive; institutions…); and second and from this point, the closeness to Foucaultwork, denying the frequent accusation of Goffman´s indifference to power relationships.

Distorsioni cognitive e schemi maladattivi precoci nei sex-offender: riferimenti teorici e di ricerca nella letteratura
Authors: Pomilla Antonella
Published: July 2018

La centralità dei temi delle distorsioni cognitive e degli schemi maladattiviprecoci è stata da sempre annoverata dalla Terapia Cognitiva nell’originee nel mantenimento dei disturbi psicopatologici (Beck 1963; 1964; 1967; 1976).Nel corso degli ultimi decenni un rinnovato interesse verso tali costrutti ha interessatoanche la popolazione forense, laddove essi sono stati ricondotti alle spiegazionigiustificatorie pre o post comportamento-reato, in particolare quelli di aggressionesessuale (Gannon, Wright, Beech & Williams, 2006; Noferesty & Anary,2013; Carvalho & Nobre, 2014; Sigre-Leiros, Carvalho & Nobre, 2015). Riconoscendoil valore che tali costrutti hanno in termini di minimizzazione della responsabilitàpenale nonché rispetto alle conseguenze per la vittima (Di Tullio D’Elisiis,2006), il presente lavoro desidera riferire sugli approfondimenti in senso teoreticoe di ricerca prodotti dalla comunità scientifica. Verranno menzionati i riscontri insenso qualitativo sulle convinzioni distorte ed i processi cognitivi disfunzionalidescritti dagli approcci teorici che si sono interessati degli aggressori sessuali;laddove emersi dalla ricerca empirica, verranno indicati anche i riscontri in sensoquantitativo.Si considera l’importanza di annoverare anche i summenzionati contenuti cognitiviquali fattori di rischio tra gli altri tradizionalmente esaminati nella valutazionedel rischio di recidiva criminosa violenta (violence risk assessment).The centrality of the themes of cognitive distortions and early maladaptiveschemes has always been counted by Cognitive Therapy in the origin andin the maintenance of psychopathological disorders (Beck 1963; 1964; 1967;1976). Over the past few decades a renewed interest toward such constructs hasalso affected the forensic population, where they have been traced back to justifyingpre or postcrime-behavior explanations, particularly those of sexual assault(Gannon, Wright, Beech & Williams, 2006; Noferesty & Anary, 2013; Carvalho &Nobre, 2014; Sigre-Leiros, Carvalho & Nobre, 2015). Once that the value thatsuch constructs have in terms of minimizing criminal liability as well as the consequencesfor the victim has been acknowledged (Di Tullio D’Elisiis, 2006), thispaper aims to describe the theoretical and the research insights produced by thescientific community. The qualitative findings on the distorted beliefs and dysfunctionalcognitive processes described by the theoretical approaches dealing withsexual aggressors will be mentioned; should the emerge from the empirical research,quantitative findings will also be indicated.The importance of including the aforementioned cognitive contents such asrisk factors among the others traditionally examined in the assessment of the violentrecidivism risk (violence risk assessment) is also considered.
Sexopolíticas del cine marginal de los años 70 en España
Authors: Berzosa Camacho Alberto
Published: July 2018

El espacio cultural que se creó en el Estado español durante los años setenta en los márgenes que delimitan el underground gay, lésbico y trans* determina hoy el marco apropiado para una aproximación a las partcularidades de la creación marginal. Directores de cine tan diversos como Pedro Almodóvar, Pierrot, José Romero, Esteve Rovira o el colectvo Els 5 QK’s convivieron en ese ambiente trabajando además en formato súper 8, lo que ahondaba en el carácter marginal de sus flms. Su obra durante los años setenta ofrece un amplio surtdo de estrategias polítcas que ofrecen al mismo tempo propuestas de acción y fórmulas de resistencia frente al poder heteropatriarcal. A través de una aproximación al cine de estos directores se delimitarán algunas característcas de la creación desde los márgenes y se defnirán las bases de una sexpolitque cinematográfca en la España de la transición.
El devenir-animal en “la pasión según G.H.” de Clarice Lispector (en lengua extranjera).
Authors: Tornos Urzainki Maider
Published: July 2018

En La pasión según G.H. de Clarice Lispector, después del contacto incierto con el cuerpo vivo de una cucaracha, la protagonista se adentra en una dimensión desconocida, que permanece al margen de las palabras y los nombres. El movimiento de desterritorialización, que inaugura el proceso del devenir-animal, establece una zona de intercambio entre el hombre y el animal, que posibilita el cuestonamiento crítco de los límites internos que circunscriben el estatuto del ser y la identdad, en contra de la (falsa) autocomplacencia que exhibe el sujeto cartesiano. De esta manera, gracias al contacto incierto con una alteridad irreductble, el sujeto pierde su envoltura humana y descubre la dimensión de lo neutro, que permite cuestonar la topología oposicional que estructura el binarismo sexual excluyente del sistema capitalista y hetero-patriarcal, con el fn de reclamar la multplicidad sexual que produce la diferencia. Así, en una especie de lengua extranjera, el trabajo de Lispector posibilita la inscripción de diferentes cuerpos sexuados en la escritura, en contra del monolingüismo que instaura el sistema falo-logocéntrico del mundo occidental.
Software to Determine Sphere Center from Terrestrial Laser Scanner Data per ASTM
Standard E3125-17
Authors: Rachakonda Prem , Muralikrishnan Bala , Cournoyer Luc , Sawyer Daniel
Published: July 2018

Terrestrial laser scanners (TLSs) are instruments that can measure 3D coordinates
of objects at high speed using a laser, resulting in high density 3D point cloud data.
The Dimensional Metrology Group (DMG) at NIST performed research to support the
development of documentary standards within ASTM E57 committee on 3D imaging systems.
This led to the publication of the ASTM E3125-2017 standard on point-to-point distance
performance evaluation of 3D imaging systems such as TLSs. To ensure that the data from
different TLS systems are processed identically, the ASTM E3125- 2017 mandates the use
of a common algorithm to determine the center of a sphere from point cloud data. This
paper describes this algorithm and software code is provided as a download.

Published: July 2018

Investigation of fluorescence, electrophoretic and melting parameters of DNA of yeasts Candida guilliermondii NP-4 after X-radiation and posradiation repair was carried out. It was shown that under influence of X-radiation the rate of saturation of DNA by ethidium bromide and the melting temperature of yeast DNA was increased, and the melting interval was decreased. After repair period the rate of saturation of DNA by ethidium bromide and the melting temperature of yeast DNA were the highest, and the melting interval was the lowest, and in the electrophoregramms or repaired DNA there were additional low molecular fractions which testify about possible changes in DNA primary and secondary structures under influence of X-radiation and postradiation repair.

A cultura dos povos está ligada à alimentação e para entender sua diversidade e especificidade tornam-se imprescindíveis resgatar aspectos históricos, visitar o passado e trazer hábitos, costumes e crenças de cada etnia. Este estudo objetiva resgatar a memória gastronômica das etnias formadoras do Oeste de Santa Catarina. Como metodologia utilizou-se a pesquisa-ação, onde além da revisão de literatura buscou-se descrever as ações de um projeto de extensão denominado Patrimônio Gastronômico do Oeste de Santa Catarina. Como resultado chegou-se aos ingredientes chaves de quatro etnias: italiana, alemã, cabocla e polonesa e a partir deles criou-se um novo prato representando-as, o Revirado. AbstractThe objective was to develop and validate a culturally appropriate instrument to evaluate the impact of a pilot intervention program in the food environment to promote healthy eating in small food stores in an urban food desert. A formative research was carried out for the validation of the instrument, including meetings of researchers, visits to all the streets in the study's region to identify food stores, visits to food distribution system agents', community workshops with the local community and in-depth interviews with food store owners for content and apparent validity. Instrument reliability was tested by Cronbach alpha coefficient. The development of the instrument included questions to evaluate the Identification and Characterization of Store; Marketing Parameters (i.e. influencers for including new food itens and frequency of product acquisition and profitability); and Psychosocial Factors Scale (i.e. expectations regarding healthy food sales, expectations regarding impact of intervention, and self-efficacy in relation to the marketing of healthy foods). Validation process allowed a review of all questions and questions' responses, with Cronbach alpha between 0.440 to 0.967 in the final instrument questions. It can be concluded that the instrument was developed to identify relevant characteristics of the food distribution system and can be used in epidemiological studies and public policies to evaluate increase access to healthy foods.Key words:Validation Studies; Urban Health; Food Environment
Comida na mesa, barraca na feira: Soberania Alimentar em famílias camponesas no município do Divino, MG./Food Sovereignty of peasents at Divino, MG: a Geography of Food?
Authors: Carneiro Leonardo de Oliveira
Published: July 2018

O objetivo deste artigo é debater sobre a soberania alimentar de agricultores do município do Divino (MG), articulados ao movimento agroecológico. Para tal, utilizamos métodos de participação observante, além de entrevistas e caminhadas guiadas pelos agricultores em suas propriedades. Os resultados demonstram um alto grau de soberania alimentar nesse grupo: a maior parte da alimentação destes provém de seus plantios. Essa diversidade produtiva está “geografada” nas paisagens rurais e nos oferece caminhos para pensar na soberania alimentar em outras escalas. ABSTRACTThis article aims to debate about the food sovereignty of peasents at Divino, MG, articulated in the agroecological movement. The methodological approach of this research utilized is the observant participation. Interviews and guided walks in the peasant’s properties are also part of the methodology. The results demonstrate a high level of food sovereignty in this specific group: most of their feeding comes from their lands. This productive diversity is geographically pinpointed in the rural landscape and, above all, it may suggest the possibility of food sovereignty at different scales.Key words: Food Sovereignty, Territory; Agroecology
Le mythe de l’anglais langue universelle dans les débats éducatifs d’entre-deux-guerres au Québec : appropriation et contestation d’une construction coloniale britannique1
Authors: Hébert Virginie
Published: July 2018

Certains chercheurs proposent de considérer le discours sur l’universalité de l’anglais comme un « mythe », soit comme une construction culturelle enracinée dans l’histoire impériale britannique. À l’aide d’une approche inspirée du courant d’étude sur les mythes sociaux, l’article analyse le rôle joué par ce mythe de l’anglais langue universelle dans les débats sur l’enseignement de l’anglais au Québec pendant l’entre-deux-guerres. Dans un premier temps, il retrace la genèse du mythe dans le contexte de l’Inde coloniale britannique puis, dans un second temps, il analyse comment certains acteurs canadiens-français se sont approprié ou ont contesté cette construction discursive extérieure. Il propose enfin une réflexion sur les conséquences de son appropriation dans l’interprétation qu’ont fait les Québécois de leur propre histoire, de leur langue et dans la définition de leur identité.
Les voies de la professionnalisation de la communication électorale en ligne
Authors: Blanchard Gersende
Published: July 2018

Adoptant une perspective sociologique, cet article s’intéresse aux différents types d’acteurs impliqués dans la mise en oeuvre de la communication électronique officielle des candidats à l’élection présidentielle française de 2012. D’une part, il examine la diversité des statuts (prestataire, permanent ou stagiaire rémunéré par le candidat, bénévole), des parcours de formation et des profils socioprofessionnels et politiques des faiseurs de la communication électorale en ligne. D’autre part, il cherche à appréhender les types de compétences au titre desquelles ces acteurs sont mobilisés pour intervenir dans la gestion de la communication de la campagne en ligne. L’hétérogénéité qui caractérise ce type de communicateurs conduit alors à interroger les voies de l’accès aux équipes de campagne numérique et, conséquemment, les voix de la professionnalisation de la communication politique. L’examen des profils des acteurs des campagnes électroniques des candidats permet de montrer que même si les connaissances et les compétences en termes de communication et/ou du numérique peuvent intervenir dans le recrutement, l’importance accordée aux compétences et à la légitimité politiques traditionnellement exigées perdure.
Batch Scheduling of Deteriorating Products

Published: July 2018

In this paper we consider the problem of scheduling N jobs on a single machine, where the jobs are processed in batches and the processing time of each job is a simple linear increasing function depending on job’s waiting time, which is the time between the start of the processing of the batch to which the job belongs and the start of the processing of the job. Each batch starts from the setup time S. Jobs which are assigned to the batch are being prepared for the processing during time S0 S. After this preparation they are ready to be processed one by one. The non-negative number bi is associated with job i. The processing time of the i-th job is equal to bi(si − (sib + S0)), where sib and si are the starting time of the b-th batch to which the i-th job belongs and the starting time of this job, respectively. The objective is to minimize the completion time of the last job. We show that the problem is NP-hard. After that we present an O(N) time algorithm solving the problem optimally for the case bi = b. We further present an O(N2) time approximation algorithm with a performance guarantee 2.
Three-Machine Flowshop Scheduling Problem to Minimize Total Completion Time with Bounded Setup and Processing Times
Authors: Allahverdi Ali
Published: July 2018

The three-machine flowshop scheduling problem to minimize total completion time is studied where setup times are treated as separate from processing times. Setup and processing times of all jobs on all machines are unknown variables before the actual occurrence of these times. The lower and upper bounds for setup and processing times of each job on each machine is the only information that is available. In such a scheduling environment, there may not exist a unique schedule that remains optimal for all possible realizations of setup and processing times. Therefore, it is desired to obtain a set of dominating schedules (which dominate all other schedules) if possible. The objective for such a scheduling environment is to reduce the size of dominating schedule set. We obtain global and local dominance relations for a three-machine flowshop scheduling problem. Furthermore, we illustrate the use of dominance relations by numerical examples and conduct computational experiments on randomly generated problems to measure the effectiveness of the developed dominance relations. The computational experiments show that the developed dominance relations are quite helpful in reducing the size of dominating schedules.
A Transfer Line Balancing Problem by Heuristic Methods: Industrial Case Studies
Authors: Guschinskaya Olga , Dolgui Alexandre
Published: July 2018

The paper deals with the problem of optimal configuration of a type of transfer lines which are equipped with transfer machines. Such machines perform operations with standard modular spindle heads which are activated sequentially. All operations assigned to the same spindle head (block of operations) are executed simultaneously by a set of tools fixed at the spindle head. The quantity of machines and spindle heads used to produce a part with the given productivity rate defines the final cost of the transfer line which must be minimized. To minimize this cost, a combinatorial problem of operations assignment to blocks and machines must be solved. The solution must provide a desired productivity (cycle time), it must also satisfy precedence and compatibility constraints. In this paper, we suggest improved versions of FSIC heuristic algorithm in order to help line designers to solve real-scale industrial problems. Results of computational experiments obtained for industrial cases are presented. ﻿
Developing and Deploying Electronics Assembly Line Optimization Tools: A Motorola Case Study
Authors: Tirpak Thomas M.
Published: July 2018

The assignment of workloads to production equipment is one category of planning decision for an electronics assembly factory. In practice, line balancing requires not only selecting machines with sufficient placement accuracy and feeder capacity, but also address- ing a host of other operational objectives and constraints. Motorola Labs led a multi-year effort to apply mathematical programming to balance a variety of production mix and vol- ume scenarios. By representing the optimization problem as a specially structured, mixed linear-integer program, we were able to incorporate a high degree of reality in the model, simultaneously optimizing fixed setups, handling custom parts, maximizing machine uptime, and mitigating secondary bottlenecks. This paper presents the story of how we developed and deployed a software solution that significantly improved assembly cycle times, setup changeovers, and overall factory productivity, saving the company tens of millions of dollars.
