Searching for an Environmental Identity: Hullabaloo in the Guava Orchard (1996) by Kiran Desai
Authors: Escobedo de Tapia Carmen
Published: December 2018

This paper analyses Kiran Desai’s Hullabaloo in the Guava Orchard (1996) from an ecocritical perspective, with the aim to highlight that contemporary Indian narratives in English still honour a conceptualisation of nature as a place in which one can find peaceful and spiritual solace and retreat. Moreover, Desai presents in this novel the themes of identity and alienation closely linked to the natural environment, which justifies an ecocritical reading of the novel in the light of concepts like “place,” “dwelling,” and “thinking” as explained by Heidegger (“Building Dwelling Thinking”). These become especially illustrated in the development of the main character, Sampath Chawla, who searches for his genuine identity in the midst of the hullabaloo caused by the clash between tradition and modernity, the local and the global in the postcolonial microcosm of Shahkot, a small northern Indian village. This analysis, therefore, proves how the aforementioned Heideggerian concepts become especially relevant when it comes to identifying what we think ("thinking”) and, most specifically, what we are (“being”) as related to the natural environment, which fully justifies an ecocritical lens.
Of Holes and Wounds: Postcolonial Trauma and the Gothic in Catherine Jinks’s The Road
Authors: Arizti Martín Bárbara
Published: December 2018

This paper analyses Catherine Jinks’s The Road (2004), a multi-protagonist novel, looking into the relationship between personal and historical forms of trauma in the context of postcolonial Australia and following Rothberg’s comparatist approach. More specifically, and taking advantage of the many synergies between the traumatic and the gothic, it studies the novel’s reliance on gothic tropes like the uncanny and the abject in order to demonstrate that both theme and narrative form work together against the overcoming of individual and national plights. The indigenous paratexts that frame Jinks’s story, read in the light of Walter Benjamin’s theses on history, prove particularly meaningful in this respect.
Unraveling the Mysteries of Childhood: Metaphorical Portrayals of Children in Margaret Atwood’s Fiction
Authors: Gibert Teresa
Published: December 2018

Most metaphorical expressions related to children in Margaret Atwood’s novels and short stories can be grouped into two coherent sets. The predominant negative set includes a wide range of monsters and hideous animals, whereas the much shorter list of positive representations encompasses sunflowers, jewels, feathers, little angels, gifts and lambs. Negative representations of children in Atwood’s fiction are generally rendered in an unconventional manner and reflect the frustration felt by realistically portrayed characters in their everyday experience. On the contrary, favorable expressions have a tendency toward stereotype and often belong to the world of memories, dreams and illusions.

Louis ARAGON, «Brocelianda»
Authors: Verjat Alain , Solà Solé Pere
Published: December 2018

El bosque de Brocéliande, un lugar mítico y mágico, está estrechamente ligado al mundo celta, a la leyenda de Merlín, a la materia de Bretaña. Una temática muy alejada de la producción del dadaísta, surrealista y teórico del realismo socialista francés que fue Louis Aragon (1897-1986), antes de la guerra de 1939-1945. Fue este traumático conflicto bélico y el humillante armisticio de junio de 1940 el que llevó a Aragon a escribir un poema con el título de Brocéliande, el nombre mítico de un bosque rico en leyendas medievales que el poeta normando Wace, del siglo xii, mencionó en su obra Le Roman de Rou et des Ducs de Normandie, al referirse a unos caballeros bretones procedentes de la región de Brecheliant que participaron en la conquista de Inglaterra bajo las órdenes de Guillaume le Conquérant. Así describió Wace este lugar mágico:

 

Une forest mult lunge è lée,

Ki en Bretaigne est mult loée ;

La Fontaine de Berenton

Sort d’une part lez le perron ;

Aler i solent venéor

A Berenton per grant chalor,

Et o lors cors l’ewe puisier

Et li perron de suz moillier,

Per ço soleient pluée aveir :

Issi soleit jadis pluveir

En la forest tut envirun,

Maiz jo ne sai par kel raisun.

Là solt l’en fi fées véir,

Se li Bretunz disent veir.

Et altres merveilles plusors ;

Published: December 2018

Instagram bukan hanya menjadi media untuk mendapatkan informasi mengenai pasangan tetapi juga dapat menimbulkan kecemburuan bagi para remaja. Kecemburuan seringkali diasosiasikan dengan hal yang negatif pada sebuah hubungan romantis. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk melihat hubungan antara kecemburuan dengan kualitas hubungan romantis pada remaja pengguna instagram usia 15-18 tahun yang berpacaran. Alat ukur yang digunakan untuk mengukur kecemburuan merupakan hasil adaptasi dan modifikasi alat ukur multidimensional jealousy dari Pfeiffer & Wong (1989) dengan reliabilitas sebesar 0.950. Kualitas hubungan romantis diukur dengan menggunakan alat ukur PBSC dan SBSC dari Ducat & Zimmer-Gembeck (2010) yang sudah diadaptasi oleh Sarrah (2015) berdasarkan self determination theory (SDT) dengan reliabilitas sebesar 0.923. Kedua alat ukur ini memiliki bukti validitas berupa evidence based in test content.  Responden penelitian ini berjumlah 108 remaja pengguna instagram berusia 15-18 tahun yang berpacaran. Melalui teknik statistik pearson correlation didapatkan hasil bahwa hubungan kecemburuan dengan kualitas hubungan romantis remaja pengguna instagram usia 15-18 tahun yang berpacaran adalah sebesar -0.291 dengan p<0.01. Semakin tinggi kecemburuan yang dimiliki remaja maka semakin rendah kualitas hubungan romantis yang dimilikinya.

Published: December 2018

Color stability is one of the denture base material requirement. Nowadays, nylon thermoplastic resin and heat-cured acrylic resin which is used as denture base materials can be changed in colour. One of a colour-changed factor is the tea drinking habit. The objective of this research was to compare the colour stability between nylon thermoplastic resin and heat-cured acrylic resin after soaked in tea. Materials used for the research were nylon thermoplastic resin from Valplast and heat-cured acrylic resin QC-20, with a sample size of 64x(10±0.03)x(2.5±0.03)mm. The sample would be assessed of colour stability after the denture base soaked in tea for 7 days. The colour measurement of each sample was done by spectrophotometer equipment (CIE lab system). Data gathered later on statistically processed with ANOVA testing. The result showed that the comparison ratio of colour stability between nylon thermoplastic resin and heat-cured acrylic resin after soaked in tea was 1.9886:1.1152. The conclusion was that colour stability in the nylon thermoplastic resin was lower than heat-cured acrylic resin after soaked in tea. This result was due to a polymer chain of nylon thermoplastic which was lower than heat-cured acrylic resin and its porosity which was higher, so tea easily soaked into the materials.

Authors: Primasari Ameta
Published: December 2018

Lichen planus is a common oral disorder which may represent the manifestation of varies clinical presentation and microscopic findings. In this retrospective study of 86, cases of oral lichen planus (OLP) were compared with 73 cases of oral lichenoid lesions (OLL). Various clinicohistopathological features were studied. The object of this study was to compare clinical and microscopic findings in order to present evidence that supports the position of true lichen planus. Biopsy specimens were obtained from every patient. The biopsy specimens were fixed in 10 percent formalin, embedded in paraffin, sectioned at 4 microns and stained by means of routine hemotoxylin and eosin procedures. The histologic specimens were examined and evaluated without knowledge of clinical findings. The mean age at presentation of patients with OLP was 42.5 years as compared to 47.0 years for OLL. There was no significant difference between the ethnic groups, site of lesions and the distribution of the clinical presentation. Compare to histopathologic findings, there were only 55% clinical and histological agreement in this study, this because of using strict criteria for oral lichen planus there could be an over diagnosis lesions. This study showed that there were no reliable clinical and histopathological features which could differentiate OLL from OLP. The features in the OLL group were non specific. The patient’s medical history, oral habits or psychological status appeared to be able to alter the classical clinicopathological findings.

The miswak, a traditional chewing stick for cleaning teeth, is made from the plant Salvadora persica. It contains a wide range of healthy components in maintaining good oral hygiene. The objective of this study is to determine the effectiveness of whitening toothpaste containing Salvadora persica extract at removing tea and chlorhexidine stain by comparing with one of commercially available whitening toothpaste and drinking water as a control group. A randomized experimental study was done. The standard method cycled clear acrylic specimens through artificial saliva, 0.2% chlorhexidine and tea on the hour 8 times per day and stain were measured using a spectrophotometer to achieve baseline reading. Test interventions were 2 whitening kinds of toothpaste; whitening toothpaste containing Salvadora persica extract (group A), commercial whitening toothpaste (group B) and drinking water as a control group (group C). Treatment interventions were done at 09:00 and 16:00 by exposing the specimens to slurries of each treatment for 2 minutes. The specimens remained in the artificial saliva between each cycles day and night. At the end of the day, the stain was assessed by spectrophotometer and Lobene Stain Index. The comparison of total stain removal assessed by spectrophotometer on day 5 between all groups was significant (p=0.007). The median of total stain removal and visual assessment recording using Lobene stain index showed Salvadora persica whitening toothpaste scored more reduction of staining followed by commercial whitening toothpaste and then control group. As a conclusion, the whitening toothpaste containing Salvadora persica is more effective at removing tea and chlorhexidine stain.

Deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) is a genetic material which is found in all living organisms. On the human cell or eukaryotes cell, the DNA is found in the nucleus cell and the mitochondria. The DNA arrangement on each cell in human body is the same, that is why, for the analysis meaning, DNA can be isolated from any cell in the body. The source of DNA to be analyzed usually coming from the blood sample by an injection method, such a way resulting in pain and bringing about constraint. Therefore, a study was carried out to look for an alternative of DNA isolation. The aim of this experimental study was to get an optimal DNA isolation method by using oral mucous smear method with a purpose to get a quick and easy DNA isolation. The investigation materials were in the form of samples which were taken from the oral epithelial mucous cells out of three different subjects. The epithelial cells were obtained by the oral mucous smear method which in a variation of two, four and six times of smear applications, respectively. The DNA was then isolated using buffer extraction method. The concentrations of DNA were measured by using ultraviolet spectrophotometer at 260 nm wavelength. The results of DNA isolation were analyzed by Polymerase Chain Reaction (PCR) technique. The optimal DNA isolation could be analyzed by PCR technique. The experimental results show that from three different subjects of study, DNA can be isolated optimally by oral mucous smear method with six times of smear applications.

Published: December 2018

Small Gestational Age (SGA) is the term used for a new born baby with birth-severe below the 10th percentile on the intrauterine Lubchenco curve, due to Intra Uterine Growth Restriction (IUGR) which can cause defects of several organs such as deciduous teeth enamel. Dental age is the indicator for growth and development of the teeth that determine biological age which is more accurate than chronological age and could be determined by calcification or teeth eruption. The purpose of this study was to obtain dental age in SGA children based on the enamel defect severity level of deciduous teeth as compared to the chronological age. This study was a comparative analytic study with given sample size, conducted towards 18 SGA children aged 4-6 years old, and 21 children with Appropriate Gestational Age (AGA) aged 4-6 years old as the control group. Deciduous teeth enamel defect severity level determined by the developmental defect of enamel (DDE) score FDI modified. In order to determine the permanent teeth growth and development, the indicator was based on dental age using the panoramic radiograph with Dermijian method. The t-test was used to compare the permanent teeth dental age difference between SGA and AGA children as well as the permanent teeth dental age difference of SGA children based on the enamel defect severity level of deciduous teeth as seen in their chronological age. The result showed that there was a difference in the permanent teeth dental age between the SGA and AGA children at chronological ages of 4, ,5, and 6 years old (t count = 3,36; 2,35; and 3,49). Based on the average of permanent teeth dental age, the value of AGA children was higher than SGA children. Furthermore, it also showed that the severe score of EDS in the SGA children at the age of 4, 5, and 6 years old, their permanent teeth dental age was lower than the mild EDS (t count = 1,45). The conclusion of this study was the permanent teeth dental age in SGA children was lower than the AGA children as well as difference between the permanent teeth dental age in SGA children based on their deciduous teeth enamel defect severity, and the severe defect refered to slower permanent teeth dental age than the mild defect.

La Comisión Nacional de Colonización y la expansión de la pequeña propiedad rural en México, 1947-1963
Authors: Aboites Aguilar Luis
Published: December 2018

Este trabajo estudia la colonización en México durante el siglo xx, un aspecto muy poco atendido en vista de la preferencia por el estudio de la reforma agraria, entendida erróneamente sólo como dotación de ejidos. Tal error obedece en buena medida al descuido de las otras vías que se plantearon para acabar con los latifundios, la meta indiscutida de los revolucionarios mexicanos. Para confrontar esa confusión, este trabajo hace una reconstrucción de la trayectoria de la Comisión Nacional de Colonización (CNC). Argumenta que la breve vida de la CNC (1947-1963) es expresión no tanto del desprestigio de la vía liberal que encarnaba la colonización. Más bien, es reflejo de la debilidad del esfuerzo gubernamental por regular la expansión de la propiedad privada en el campo. Este tipo de propiedad se extendía y consolidaba gracias a un movimiento social y político que no requería de instituciones como la CNC.

Geochemical studies of claystone deposits from the Patti Formation in the southern Bida Basin, north-Central Nigeria, were carried out on representative samples to determine the basin’s depositional conditions, provenance and tectonic setting. The localities within the study area included Gegu, Ahoko, Ahoko-Etigi, Omu and Idu.

Semi-quantitative phase analysis using the Rietveld method and X-ray powder diffraction data revealed that the claystone samples had prominent kaolinite with other constituents such as quartz, illite–muscovite, K-feldspar, pyrite, marcasite, anatase, rutile and gorceixite.

Enrichment of Al2O3, Ba, Th, Sr, Cr and La suggests that these elements are primarily controlled by the dominant clay minerals.

Geochemical parameters such as U, U/Th, Ni/Co, V/Cr and Cu/Zn ratios strongly implied that these claystones were deposited in an oxidising environment. Provenance deducing ratios for felsic, mafic and basic igneous rocks were compared. Al2O3/TiO2 ratio suggested intermediate to felsic rocks as the probable source rocks for the claystone samples; however, Y/Ni, Cr/V, La/Sc and Th/Sc ratios suggested a felsic progenitor. The tectonic discrimination diagram showed that the samples’ plot was within the region specified for passive margin-type tectonic setting.

During the gas turbine exploitation the presence of small defects can cause very high vibration amplifications, localized on the components of this rotating machine. For this, a diagnostic process is necessary for decision-making during the monitoring of failures caused by vibration phenomena, which consists in observing the system by comparing its current data with the data coming from a normal operation. These indicators help engineer to determine the symptoms for the failing components of the system. This work deals with problems related to these vibrations, with the aim of developing a system of detection of failures using dynamic neural networks approach. The originality of this contribution is to calculate the various alarms based on this system which used the determined vibration models in order to ensure a reliable and safe operation of the gas compression installation using the examined gas turbine.
O Desenvolvimento Moral diante dos desafios contemporâneos da Educação / The Moral Development of contemporary challenges on Education
Authors: Costa Marcone Felix , Filho Antônio Pereira
Published: December 2018

Este artigo é uma abordagem teórica sobre o desenvolvimento moral infantil dentro de um enfoque que considera necessário as percepções de aspectos socioculturais, cognitivos e afetivos na educação dos valores. Esta análise parte da perspectiva construtivista sobre o desenvolvimento humano apresentando a dimensão interativa e contextual envolvida no desenvolvimento moral. Interação social, julgamento moral, sentimento de culpa e transgressão de regras são eixos básicos desta reflexão. Foram com os estudos de Piaget que a moral ganhou força na atenção do desenvolvimento humano e propriamente com as pesquisas de continuadores que a psicologia infantil e o campo da educação continuam a planejar e desenvolver investigações sobre esta abordagem. A relevância da discussão aqui proposta inclui a possibilidade de contribuir com a formação dos profissionais da educação para que a escola seja efetivamente um espaço de tolerância, respeito nas relações interpessoais e promoção a saúde mental de jovens estudantes.

O trabalho desenvolvido pelo tutor envolve estudantes, professores, materiais e tecnologias constituindo sua prática pedagógica. Nesta reflexão, problematizamos a prática de tutoria realizada durante no estudo de caso do curso de Letras Espanhol da Rede Gaúcha de Ensino Superior a Distância (REGESD). Metodologicamente, a análise centra-se em explicitar os inéditos e viáveis-possíveis do trabalho de tutoria desenvolvido nos quatro anos de duração do respectivo curso (2008-2011) à luz da fluência tecnológico-pedagógica e do monitoramento eletrônico como categorias conceituais. Como resultado, apresentamos que a fluência tecnológico-pedagógica e o monitoramento constituem-se dois princípios essenciais na prática pedagógica do tutor. Concluindo, salientamos que o tutor precisa delimitar o campo epistemológico orientador da sua prática no desenvolvimento do processo de ensino-aprendizagem à distância.

Esse texto apresenta um recorte dos resultados de uma pesquisa de Mestrado e tem por objetivo analisar a concepção e o papel/lugar  da criança nas relações pedagógicas e sociais no contexto da Educação Infantil. A pesquisa teve um caráter qualitativo, utilizando como instrumentos para a coleta de dados a observação e a entrevista semiestruturada com três educadoras. Os resultados apontaram que a concepção das educadoras sobre a  criança ainda está atravessada por resquícios de uma tendência romântica de educação e em relação ao papel/lugar da criança nas relações pedagógicas e sociais, constatou-se que  as educadoras colocam a criança como o centro e razão de seu trabalho e possibilitam a criança liberdade de expressão no modo de realizar  as atividades.

Objetivo: Avaliar os resultados da implementação de uma intervenção em educação em saúde com gestantes e mães sobre noções de cuidado com o neonato na perspectiva das participantes. Metodologia: Investigação de abordagem qualitativa, delineada em pressupostos da pesquisa participante, realizada por meio de grupos focais como estratégia de diagnóstico e avaliação dos resultados de uma intervenção com 40 gestantes/mães. Resultados: Faixa etária prevalente de 14 a 26 anos de idade (72,5%), 50% primigestas e 50% multíparas, 25% relataram ter uma gestação, 12,5% duas gestações e 10% três gestações. Por meio do grupo focal diagnóstico constatou-se que algumas mães mantinham ações e hábitos equivocados e sentimentos negativos frente a práticas e cuidados de saúde do recém-nascido. No grupo focal de avaliação a experiência antes apavorante parecia atenuada e com redução de dor. Na higiene do recém-nascido houve demonstração de maior consciência do processo. Quanto à vacina e proteção, houve engajamento por parte das mães em geral. Conclusão: O conhecimento prévio das gestantes/mães acerca dos cuidados com o neonato eram empíricos e apresentavam limitações. Ao propor oficinas demonstrativas e participativas com estratégias educativas ativas foram acionados diferentes recursos e situações-problemas, que na avaliação das participantes auxiliou a promoção da saúde materna e do recém-nascido.
A “magia da realidade” de Richard Dawkins
Authors: Ramos Rodrigo Ferraz
Published: December 2018

O presente trabalho é uma resenha que objetiva discutir a “magia da realidade” de Richard Dawkins. O mundo real, como é entendido cientificamente, tem a sua própria magia: a magia da realidade. “A magia da realidade: como sabemos o que é verdade” é uma desobstinada obra na qual Dawkins aborda algumas questões que acompanharam a história da humanidade. “Quem foi a primeira pessoa?”, “o que é um arco-íris?” e “estamos sozinhos no universo?”, são alguns exemplos das perguntas que Dawkins discutiu através de uma eminente escrita instigativa. Mitos e lendas foram criadas por diferentes culturas para responder a essas questões. Contudo, o objetivo de Dawkins é fornecer outras respostas, ou ao menos, dar a melhor resposta possível: a da ciência. A ciência, pouquíssimas vezes é atrativa ao público leigo, principalmente por sua linguagem comumente indecifrável, mas Dawkins, adotando uma linguagem ilustrativa e instigativa, encontra-se entre aqueles que empreendem na divulgação científica, com o intuito de contribuir com a popularização da ciência em nossa cultura.
Local Environment and Dynamic Behavior of Fluoride Anions in Silicogermanate Zeolites: A Computational Study of the AST Framework
Authors: Fischer Michael
Published: December 2018

In silicogermanate zeolites containing double four-ring (d4r) building units, the germanium atoms preferentially occupy the corners of these cube-like units. While this general behaviour is well known, the absence of long-range order precludes a determination of the preferred arrangements of Si and Ge atoms at the corners of d4r cages by means of crystallographic methods. If fluoride anions are present during the synthesis, these are incorporated into the d4r cages. Due to the sensitivity of the 19F chemical shift to the local environment, NMR experiments can provide indirect insights into the predominant (Si,Ge) arrangements. However, conflicting interpretations have been reported, both with regard to the preference for, or avoidance of, Ge-O-Ge linkages, and concerning the equilibrium position of fluorine inside the cage, where fluorine might either occupy the cage centre or participate in a partly covalent Ge-F bond. In order to shed light on the energetically preferred local arrangements, periodic electronic structure calculations in the framework of dispersion-corrected density functional theory (DFT) were performed. The AST framework was used as a suitable model system, as this zeolite is synthetically accessible across the range of (Si1-n,Gen)O2 compositions (0 ≤ n ≤ 1). DFT structure optimisations for (Si,Ge)-AST systems containing fluoride anions and organic cations revealed that arrangements of Si and Ge at the cage vertices which maximise the number of Ge-O-Ge linkages are energetically preferred, and that fluorine tends to form relatively short (~2.2 to 2.4 Å) bonds to Ge atoms that are surrounded by Ge-O-Ge linkages. The preference for Ge-O-Ge linkages disappears in the absence of fluorine, pointing to a “templating” effect of the anions. In addition to the prediction of equilibrium structures, DFT-based Molecular Dynamics calculations were performed for selected AST models in order to analyse the dynamics of fluoride anions confined to d4r cages. These calculations showed that the freedom of movement of fluorine varies markedly depending on the local environment, and that it correlates with the average Ge-F distance (short Ge-F bonds = restricted motion). An analysis of the Ge-F radial distribution functions provided no evidence for a coexistence of separate local energy minima at the cage centre and in the proximity of a germanium atom for any of the systems considered. The computational approach pursued in this work provides important new insights into the local structure of silicogermanate zeolites with d4r units, enhancing the atomic-level understanding of these materials. In particular, the findings presented here constitute valuable complementary information that can aid the interpretation of experimental data.
CuH-Catalyzed Enantioselective Ketone Allylation with 1,3-Dienes: Scope, Mechanism, and Applications

Chiral tertiary alcohols are important building blocks for the synthesis of pharmaceutical agents and biologically active natural products. The addition of carbon nucleophiles to ketones is the most common approach to tertiary alcohol synthesis, but traditionally relies on stoichiometric organometallic reagents that are difficult to prepare, sensitive, and uneconomical. We describe a mild and efficient method for the copper-catalyzed allylation of ketones, using widely available 1,3-dienes as allylmetal surrogates. Homoallylic alcohols bearing a wide range of functional groups are obtained in high yield and with good regio-, diastereo-, and enantioselectivity. Mechanistic investigations using density functional theory (DFT) implicate the in situ formation of a rapidly equilibrating mixture of isomeric copper(I) allyl complexes, from which Curtin-Hammett kinetics determine the major isomer of product. A stereochemical model is provided to explain the high diastereo- and enantioselectivity of this process. Finally, this method was applied toward the preparation of an important drug, (R)-Procyclidine, and a key intermediate in the synthesis of several pharmaceuticals.
