ABSTRACT Water deficit is a current problem of global relevance. This is a problem in Brazil, especially in the Semiarid region, which undergoes severe droughts for much of the year. This requires the search for alternatives, such as the planned wastewater use, which is a successful alternative in developed countries that is applied for various purposes, including agriculture. However, despite the increasing growth of agriculture in Brazil, there are no established control and monitoring policies to minimize its impacts on the environment and human health. The country does not have specific legislation that defines wastewater quality parameters for domestic sewage. The objective of this work was to compile international guidelines and legislations that address this issue and compare them with the national normative resolutions for quality of wastewater and its different uses. The most relevant and locally applicable parameters described in these documents were listed, and the reference limits were defined by comparing them with those found in the scientific literature applied to the Brazilian context. This compilation represents the first step towards the incorporation of regulations for water reuse, having the Brazilian Semiarid region as a first test field, but with expandable application to different regions of the country.

ABSTRACT The objective of this study was to evaluate the pregnancy rate (PR) of cows of six farms in Bolivia and in the states of Acre and Rondônia in Brazil after the transfer of 4,321 in vitro Nellore embryos produced by a private company, in 2015 to 2016. The effects of the farm location, year of embryo transfer (ET), season of ET, number of previous ET per recipient, and embryo development stage on the PR of the recipient cow (chi square p<0.05) were evaluated. The PR of the six evaluated farms were similar, with an average of 45.15%. The farm location, year of ET (2015 or 2016), and season of ET (rainy or dry season) did not affect the PR (p>0.05). The PR found after embryo transfer for recipient cows that had already been used once (45.58%) or twice (43.40%) for this purpose were higher than that of recipient cows used three to eight times (29.01%) (p<0.05). ET at expanded or hatched blastocyst stage resulted in higher PR (47.35%) when compared to the ET at morula or initial blastocyst (41.06%) and at blastocyst stage (43%) (p<0.05), which did not differ from each other (p>0.05). Under the conditions of this study, the transfer of in vitro-produced Nellore embryos at advanced development stages (expanded or hatched blastocyst) results in higher PR in cows that had been used once or twice for this purpose.

Published: January 2020

ABSTRACT Sour passion fruit (Passiflora edulis Sims, 1818) crops in Brazil are drawing attention due to the national production, and the increasing consumption of this fruit as fresh and processed products. However, fruit losses due to damages caused by stink bugs (Hemiptera: Coreidae) are concerning to fruit growers in southern Brazil. The objective of this study was to evaluate the population fluctuation and control of stink bugs in P. edulis crops grown in the 2013-2014 and 2014-2015 crop seasons in Araquari, SC, Brazil, using natural and synthetic insecticides. The stink bug population was evaluated using the 0.25 m2 frame technique. The evaluations were carried out weekly during the two crop seasons. The species and distribution of stink bugs in the different parts of the plant were evaluated. The insecticides and rates used were: Neenmax (azadirachtin 1.0%) at 10 mL L-1; Orobor N1 (N-citric acid 1.0% + 0.20% B) at 2 mL L-1; and Decis 25 EC (deltamethrin 2.5%) at 1 mL L-1, diluted in aqueous solution. Specimens of three stink bug species where found: 86% Diactor bilineatus (Hemiptera: Coreidae); 13.5% Holhymenia histrio (Hemiptera: Coreidae), and 0.5% Nezara viridula (Hemiptera: Pentatomidae). The D. bilineatus species presented higher frequency, constancy, and dominance during the evaluated crop seasons; 64% of the stink bugs were found on fruits, 18.5% on leaves, 7.3% on floral buds, 5.8% on flowers, and 4.4% on branches. The use of azadirachtin or deltamethrin was efficient to reduce the stink bug infestation and the number of P. edulis withered fruits.

Published: January 2020

ABSTRACT Objective: This article describes the orthodontic treatment performed on an adult patient with multiple dental losses. Case report: A female patient, 20 years and 4 months old, presented with the following conditions: absence of teeth #26, #35, #36 and #46; semi-impacted tooth #48; inclined molars adjacent to an edentulous space; canines and premolars in a Class II relationship; a convex profile; biprotrusion; and forced lip sealing. Results: Space in the region of tooth #26 was closed, as well the space of tooth #46; tooth #48 erupted and followed mesial movement passively; space of the region of tooth #35 was maintained for the placement of a dental implant; uprighting of tooth #37 was obtained. Aesthetic and functional goals of the treatment were achieved. Results remained stable 10 years after the end of the treatment. Conclusion: The modified helical loop could be effectively used in orthodontic mechanics to close edentulous spaces. Passive semi-impacted mandibular third molar eruption and mesialization can occur in adults when proper space is provided.

Published: January 2020

ABSTRACT Objective: To assess in situ the effect of fluoride associated with nano-hydroxyapatite for the prevention of demineralization of the enamel adjacent to orthodontic brackets. Material and Methods: Eight volunteers wore palatal devices prepared with 6 bovine enamel blocks (5x5x2 mm) with bonded brackets. The volunteers used the devices in two different moments of 14 days each. During the first 14 days, a product containing fluoride + nano-hydroxyapatite was applied twice (experimental group, GNH, n = 48), and for the other 14 days no prevention product was applied (control group, CG, n = 48). In both groups, along the experiment, the blocks were dripped with 20% sucrose eight times daily. After the experiment, all the specimens were sectioned and examined for lesion depth analysis (µm) under polarized light microscopy, and for enamel longitudinal microhardness (measured under the bracket, at 30 µm and at 130 µm from the margin), at seven different depths (10, 20, 30, 50, 70, 90, and 110 µm). Results: Under polarized light, group GNH presented significantly less demineralization depth ( X ¯= 15.01 µm, SD = 33.65) in relation to CG ( X ¯= 76.43 µm, SD = 83.75). Enamel longitudinal microhardness demonstrated significantly higher microhardness for group GNH when compared to CG. Conclusion: Fluoride + nano-hydroxyapatite can be an alternative preventive procedure for demineralization of the enamel adjacent to orthodontic brackets.

Published: January 2020

ABSTRACT Objective: This study evaluated the dental, skeletal and soft tissue effects in Class II malocclusion patients treated with Distal Jet appliance, compared to an untreated control group. Methods: 44 patients with Class II malocclusion were divided into two groups: Group 1 (experimental) - 22 patients, mean age of 12.7 years, treated with the Distal Jet appliance for a mean period of 1.2 years; Group 2 (control) - 22 untreated patients, mean age of 12.2 years, followed by a mean period of 1.2 years. Lateral cephalograms were obtained before treatment (T0) and at the end of the distalization (T1).Independent t test was used to identify intergroup differences. Results: When compared to control group, the Distal Jet produced a significant increase in mandibular plane angle (0.7 ± 2.0o). The maxillary second molars presented distal inclination (6.6 ± 3.8o), distalization (1.1 ± 1.1 mm) and extrusion (1.3 ± 2.1 mm). The maxillary first molars distalized by 1.2 ± 1.4 mm. The maxillary first premolars mesialized by 3.4 ± 1.1 mm. The maxillary incisors showed slight labial tipping of 4.3 ± 4.7o and were protruded by 2.4 ± 1.7 mm. There were no significant changes in the facial profile. The overjet increased 1.5 ± 1.1 mm and overbite had no significant changes. Conclusion: The Distal Jet appliance is effective to distalize the maxillary first molars, but promotes increase in mandibular plane angle, distal inclination, extrusion and distalization of maxillary second molars, mesialization of maxillary first premolars, proclination and protrusion of maxillary incisors, and increase in overjet, when compared to a control group.

Published: January 2020

ABSTRACT Introduction: Pain related to orthodontic tooth movement is common and cause dissatisfaction and discomfort. Objective: The present study aimed to compare the efficacy of naproxen patches in pain control during orthodontic tooth separation, by means of visual analogue scale (VAS) and interleukin 1β (IL-1β) levels in gingival crevicular fluid (GCF). Methods: In this split-mouth triple-blind clinical trial, with 40 patients following separation, 5% naproxen or placebo patches were randomly placed on the upper right or left first molars every 8 hours. Pain intensity scores were determined after 2 and 6 hours, sleep time, 24 hours, days 2, 3 and 7 by the patients using a 100-mm VAS ruler. IL-1β levels in GCF were evaluated by ELISA at baseline, 1 and 24 hours and 7 days. Paired samples t-tests and two-way repeated measures ANOVA analysis of variance with a significance level of 0.05 were applied. Results: A total number of 30 patients (13 males and 17 females) finished the trial. Significant differences were found in pain scores (p< 0.0001) and IL-1β levels (p= 0.047) between naproxen and placebo groups. Lower pain scores were reported for the patients using naproxen patches at all time points, except 1 hour after separation. IL-1β levels were lower for the patients using naproxen patches only 1 hour after separation (p= 0.047). The peak of pain scores and IL-1β levels were calculated at 24 hours. Conclusion: In the light of VAS scores and IL-1β levels, naproxen patches reduced the pain caused by separator placement.

Danser l’Anarchie: théories et pratiques anarchistes dans le Judson Dance Theater, Grand Union et le Contact Improvisation
Authors: Bigé Romain
Published: January 2020

Résumé: On parle souvent, à l’égard de la danse post-moderne américaine des années 1960 et 1970, de corps, de mouvements, de procédures chorégraphiques démocratiques. Pourtant, certains traits de ces danses (déhiérarchisation des parties du corps et des virtuosités, recherche de processus de décision collectifs...) s’opposent de manière critique à la démocratie libérale. C’est plutôt de l’anarchisme qu’elles se réclament. En s’appuyant sur trois aventures collectives américaines, et en examinant les écrits de Steve Paxton comme témoin et acteur de ces aventures, cet article se demande: Qu’est-ce qu’un postulat anarchiste permet de voir dans ces danses? Que nous apprennent les pratiques chorégraphiques sur l’anarchie?
The Performative Nature of Dramatic Imagination
Authors: Vega Balbás Rubén
Published: January 2020

Abstract: Creative imagination is a central concept in critical philosophy which establishes the framing faculty of the subject in the middle of the cognitive process. Linking the internal and the external, imagination is also key for dramatic acting methodologies. This mediation has been alternatively interpreted in Western tradition under a reversible perspective, giving priority to either the process that goes from the outside inwards (aesthesis) or just the opposite (poiesis). Going beyond dialectics, this article will connect philosophy with dramatic theory. My proposal explores the virtual drama of identity to emphasise how the transcendental and empirical get linked theatrically.
Borders between Performing Arts and Philosophy
Authors: Feitosa Charles
Published: January 2020

Abstract: Apparently, philosophy has nothing to do with performing arts, as its environment is purely theoretical and eminently abstract, while the word performance refers to the notions of operation, implementation, action. I propose here the reoccupation of the borders between philosophy and performance arts by means of a reflection on the following points: 1. What is the performance of philosophy?; 2. What can philosophy say about performance?; 3. Which are the possible forms of composition between philosophy and performing arts?
The Crisis of Representation, the Performative Turn and Presence: possibilities toward a Performance Philosophy
Authors: Dias Luciana da Costa
Published: January 2020

Abstract: In this paper, the so-called Crisis of Representation is discussed as a hallmark of Western Theatre and Modernity. The key hypothesis of overcoming such a crisis is investigated through the emergence of a performative turn, in which performance is understood in a broader sense derived from Performance Studies. To address this, the paper builds on authors such as Artaud, Derrida, Heidegger, Gumbrecht and Féral for a general theoretical background, and on the work of authors such as Cull, Street and others for a more specific approach concerning the field of Performance Philosophy. This paper argues that a philosophical turn in Performance Studies has happened through a radicalization of ‘Presence’.
What Role could Presence Play in the Practices of Academia? On the performativity of theory in the context of Performance Philosophy
Authors: Lagaay Alice , Seitz Anna
Published: January 2020

Abstract: The dialogue discusses the role presence could be permitted to play in academic situations of co-presence with others (in comparison to the importance of presence in artistic contexts). It ponders the extent to which conventional academic forms, quite apart from seeking to guarantee objectivity in theory, actually pre-determine, or in fact limit, the communicability of theoretical content. The conversation points to the need for a new dramaturgical attentiveness to the performativity of theory and calls for an innovative approach to the formats in which the questions and results concerning various fields in the humanities could be presented and negotiated more successfully.

Published: January 2020

Abstract Bromelia reversacantha Mez is an endemic species of the Cerrado Biome, for which there is no published data about its ornamental potentiality. The objective was to identify the ornamental and landscape potential of this bromeliad native from Cerrado. In September 2015, researchers specialized in the field of native plants evaluated the vegetative, reproductive and aesthetic characteristics of twenty plants of natural occurrence in the Biological Reserve Prof. José Ângelo Rizzo, in Mossâmedes, GO. In a scale of zero to ten, the bromeliad received an average score of 7.1 for the ornamental aspect, being 7.4; 7.3 and 6.6 respectively for the flowering plant, plant with fruits, and plant in the vegetative stage. The vigorous size, contrast, and color of the leaves and bracts, the showy inflorescence, the flowers, and fruits were shown as ornamental attributes. Bromelia reversacantha presents several characteristics favorable to its introduction in landscape projects, suggesting the use in gardens, or as living fences/borders and in pots; as well as in ornamentation in decorative arrangements with the use of inflorescences and fruit bunches.

Published: January 2020

Abstract Integrated production systems have been used with various crops, and their use in floriculture is innovative. The effects of green fertilization in floriculture and the appropriate fertilization levels are still unknown. The aim was to identify the best dose of chemical fertilizer, with or without green fertilization, for integrated production of ‘Carola’ roses. The treatments consisted of 4 doses of the chemical fertilization recommended for rose bushes, (25%, 50%, 75%, and 100%), with or without green fertilization (calopo). Plants that were not treated with 100% (or complete) of chemical fertilization were supplemented monthly with Bokashi (16 g/plant, via the soil) and biofertilizer (5% via the leaves). The assessments were conducted 3 times per week for a year. The use of less chemical fertilizer did not affect rose production or quality, whereas the use of green fertilization did not provide a satisfactory outcome. The analyses, biometric, accumulation and nutrient content, and chemical characteristics of the soil, indicated that green fertilization with calopo was not beneficial. Moreover, with the exception of nitrogen and magnesium, there is the possibility of using 75% of the recommended chemical fertilization in rose bushes.

Abstract The objective of the present work was to evaluate the effect of nitrogen (N) and calcium (Ca), complementary to the complete fertilization established, on production, quality and postharvest shelf life of floral stems of gerbera as cut flower harvested 117 days after transplant. The experiment consisted of a combination of three doses of N.L−1 substrate (0.07 g, 0.15 g and 0.2 g) and three doses of Ca.L−1 substrate (0.02 g; 0.03 g and 0.04 g) and was conducted in a greenhouse in a bifactorial arrangement with an additional control treatment. Control plants were not supplemented with N or Ca. Both elements were diluted in water and applied manually every 15 days. Highest flower yields were obtained with application 0.2 g de N.L−1 substrate and 0.04 g Ca.L−1 substrate. Stem length, stem diameter, flower diameter, and longevity, relative fresh weight and solution uptake were highest in gerbera fertilized with 0.2 g de N.L−1 substrate and 0.04 g Ca.L−1 substrate. Applying every 15 days, 0.2 g of N.L−1 substrate and 0.04 g of Ca.L−1 substrate resulted in higher yields, better quality and postharvest shelf life of floral stems of gerbera as cut flower harvested 117 days after transplant.

Published: January 2020

Abstract The zinnia (Zinnia elegans Jacq.) is an ornamental plant used in landscape composition and presents great potential for cultivation as a cut flower, potted. Faced with the new trend of integrated flower production, that proposes more environmentally friendly practices aiming at sustainability, there is a need to determine alternative substrates that allow the production of quality seedlings. Therefore, this study aimed to evaluate the vigor and quality of zinnia seedlings produced in alternative substrates in trays with different cell size. Two different types of trays of expanded polystyrene with different cell size were tested as following: 128-cell and 200-cell trays with a volume of 40 cm3 and 16 cm3, respectively. For the growth of the seedlings, three types of substrate were tested: commercial substrate; composting of organic waste; mixture of sand, soil and carbonized rice husk in the proportion of 1:1:1 (v:v:v). The experiment was a completely randomized design, using 24 trays in a factorial arrangement 3x2 (substrate x tray cell size), with four replicate and eight seedling per replicate. The phytotechnical characteristics evaluated were plant height, number of leaves, root length and dry weight of plants, the vigor of seedlings and clod stability was determined by rating scales. The physicochemical and physical proprieties of organic substrate enables produce high quality seedling using 128-cell trays, but the 200-cell trays also produce good quality seedling, having the advantage of using smaller volumes of substrates.
PCR identification of Petunia male sterile cytoplasm
Authors: Colombo Noemí , Hagiwara Juan Carlos
Published: January 2020

Abstract Petunia is a very important ornamental plant with a broad range of flower colour and size, and most of the cultivars grown are propagated through seeds. Cytoplasmic male sterility (CMS) is a maternally inherited character determined by mitochondrial genes that results in impaired pollen development. The unique and well characterized male sterile cytoplasm in Petunia is a valuable resource for hybrids production because it prevents self-fertilization of mother plants and ensures the purity of F1s. Introgression of the male sterile cytoplasm in elite lines of Petunia is achieved following a backcross scheme and can be assisted using molecular markers associated to the trait of interest. The objective of this study was to develop a molecular marker to identify the male sterile cytoplasm of Petunia. A PCR-based marker amplifying a region of the mitochondrial CMS-associated urfS only in the male sterile plants was designed. Results showed differential PCR amplification of a ≈ 600 bp product in plants carrying male sterile cytoplasm in four Petunia species and their F1s and BC1 generations. A multiplex PCR reaction was subsequently set up, adding specific primers amplifying a ≈ 800 bp product from the conserved region trnT-trn-L of the chloroplast genome as a positive control in order to unambiguously identify the cytoplasm types as normal or sterile. A rapid, simple and precise molecular marker is now available for assisting breeding of F1 hybrids in Petunia.
Numerical evaluation of passive strategies for nocturnal climate optimization in a greenhouse designed for rose production (Rosa spp.)
Authors: Munar Edwin Andres Villagran , Aldana Carlos Ricardo Bojaca
Published: January 2020

Abstract In passive plastic greenhouses that do not have heating systems, the phenomenon of thermal inversion occurs, which means that the temperature inside the greenhouse is lower than the outdoor environment; therefore, the plants are exposed to thermal conditions that are unsuitable for production. The aim of this work was to evaluate passive air climatization alternatives seeking to optimize the nocturnal microclimate of a multi-tunnel Gothic greenhouse projected for rose production in Bogota savannah. The experimental approach included the use of a CFD-2D simulation model successfully validated by recording and archive of temperature data in a greenhouse. A total of 24 steady-state simulations were developed that included 3 nighttime temperature values, 2 sky conditions and 4 greenhouse configurations. The results showed that under the clear sky condition there was a thermal inversion with a value of −0.53 and −1.11 °C for the standard night-time greenhouse configuration. The installation of a thermal screen and porous mesh in the fixed roof vents allowed to control the presence of thermal inversion under clear sky conditions and optimizing the indoor temperature value in the greenhouse under cloudy sky conditions.
CFHR Gene Variations Provide Insights in the Pathogenesis of the Kidney Diseases Atypical Hemolytic Uremic Syndrome and C3 Glomerulopathy
Authors: Zipfel Peter F. , Wiech Thorsten , Stea Emma D. , Skerka Christine
Published: January 2020

Significance Statement

The human CFHR–Factor H gene cluster encodes the five FHR proteins that are emerging complement and immune modulators and the two complement regulators Factor H and FHL1. Genetic and chromosomal alterations in this cluster are associated with the human kidney diseases atypical hemolytic uremic syndrome and C3 glomerulopathy. Various genetic alterations result in the expression of mutant and altered FHR proteins, or FHR::Factor H and Factor H::FHR hybrid proteins. The modified FHR proteins together with an altered FHR and Factor H plasma repertoire, which often modify complement action in the fluid phase and cause morphologic alteration in the glomerulus, provide important views on FHR protein function in the kidney.

Sequence and copy number variations in the human CFHR–Factor H gene cluster comprising the complement genes CFHR1, CFHR2, CFHR3, CFHR4, CFHR5, and Factor H are linked to the human kidney diseases atypical hemolytic uremic syndrome (aHUS) and C3 glomerulopathy. Distinct genetic and chromosomal alterations, deletions, or duplications generate hybrid or mutant CFHR genes, as well as hybrid CFHR–Factor H genes, and alter the FHR and Factor H plasma repertoire. A clear association between the genetic modifications and the pathologic outcome is emerging: CFHR1, CFHR3, and Factor H gene alterations combined with intact CFHR2, CFHR4, and CFHR5 genes are reported in atypical hemolytic uremic syndrome. But alterations in each of the five CFHR genes in the context of an intact Factor H gene are described in C3 glomerulopathy. These genetic modifications influence complement function and the interplay of the five FHR proteins with each other and with Factor H. Understanding how mutant or hybrid FHR proteins, Factor H::FHR hybrid proteins, and altered Factor H, FHR plasma profiles cause pathology is of high interest for diagnosis and therapy.
Cavalos que choram: cantos XVI e XVII da Ilíada e(m) registros de João Guimarães Rosa
Authors: Costa Lorena Lopes da
Published: January 2020

Para estabelecer a relação entre Grécia e sertão, neste artigo, dedico atenção especial às vocalizações dos cavalos, tanto na Ilíada quanto na literatura ficcional de João Guimarães Rosa, mas também nas notas que o autor fez da leitura da poesia épica grega e no diário que ele escreveu na Alemanha durante a Segunda Guerra Mundial. Pretendo, com isso, demonstrar, por um lado, a recepção de um material antigo pela ficção de Rosa, que é incorporado à sua própria tradição literária, forjando uma nova. Por outro lado, como não posso afirmar (mas vou sugerir) que o autor brasileiro teria lido os verbos no idioma grego, veremos a capacidade que um “clássico” apresenta de participar de nossa história para além de caminhos verificáveis.

Uma alternativa, empregada pelos produtores do cereal trigo, para garantir produtividade é a aplicação de herbicidas dessecantes na pré-colheita. No entanto, essa prática pode acarretar na contaminação química do produto colhido. Diante do exposto, objetivou-se com a presente revisão, fazer um levantamento, a partir de estudos científicos, sobre o efeito da dessecação na pré-colheita do trigo com o uso de herbicidas, na qualidade fisiológica dos grãos de trigo destinados ao consumo humano e animal. No Brasil, a região Sul tem a maior área cultivada com este cereal, 1.714 milhões de hectares em 2017. Nos últimos anos os produtores rurais, a fim de minimizar a deterioração da qualidade dos grãos no campo e garantir a produtividade, passaram a adotar a prática de aplicação de herbicidas dessecantes na pré-colheita. Entretanto, essa prática pode resultar no transporte dos produtos químicos até os grãos ou sementes, resultando na contaminação química do produto final, onde, em sua grande maioria é destinado à produção de farinha. Os resultados da revisão bibliográfica são heterogêneos, apresentando em alguns casos efeitos negativos da dessecação em pré-colheita aos grãos e/ou sementes, enquanto em outros não existe a mesma constatação. Dessa forma, o produtor sempre que utilizar um defensivo agrícola, deve seguir o receituário agronômico, bem como ficar atento às indicações da bula do produto, de modo a respeitar as doses e período de carência entre aplicação e colheita. Ainda há a necessidade de técnico especializado, necessidade de tal procedimento, viabilidade em determinada localidade, registro dos produtos químicos para este fim e se estes deixam resíduos nos grãos que possam comprometer a saúde humana.

Published: January 2020

Purpose of the study: The experiment is aimed at studying the potential of non-native speakers in applying various idiom transformations. The relevance of the current work is closely related to its purpose since the ability to identify the key component of an idiom or proverb makes their comprehension much easier and deeper.

Methodology: The authors used experimental methods to reveal the role of transformations in identifying the key components of idioms. The experiment included several types of experiments: natural, transformational, open and mental. The subjects were 28 third-year students of Kazan Federal University whose major is English as a group of informants. The group of informants was given 10 English phraseological units which include a component part nominating some profession. Students were given two tasks and the time limit given for it was 2 – 2.5 hours.

Main Findings: The paper describes an experiment conducted with the purpose of identifying key components/components of phraseological units. Having analyzed two types of phraseological transformations (substitution and deletion) performed by informants, we draw conclusions concerning the relevance of applying each of these types of transformation for the purpose of identifying the key component/components.

Applications of this study: Analysis of the results of the experiment conducted within this research demonstrates that each of the phraseological units under analysis is built according to a particular semantic model, which is retained when any of the component parts are substituted and can be restored when deleting component parts other than key ones.

Novelty/Originality of this study: The fact that most phraseological units are built according to some semantic template and the possibility of distinguishing one or more key components within them is assumed. The experiment also reveals the possibility of an element of a phraseological unit being not necessarily a component part. The relevance of the current work is closely related to its purpose since the ability to identify the key component of an idiom or proverb makes their comprehension much easier and deeper.
APONTAMENTO SOBRE A AGROVILA LEONARDO D’VINCI E A REINVENÇÃO DE SEU COTIDIANO APÓS A CONSTRUÇÃO DA HIDRELÉTRICA DE BELO MONTE
Authors: Costa Pedro Sérgio Santos da , Souza Cesar Martins de
Published: January 2020

A Rodovia Transamazônica e a Usina Hidrelétrica Belo Monte (UHBM) representam muito mais do que apenas duas obras de grande porte do Governo Federal, elas são concretizações de um modo de pensar desenvolvimentista vigente desde a década de 1950 no Brasil. Entre a rodovia e a usina há um elo sócio-histórico, geográfico e metafórico, a Agrovila Leonardo D’Vinci (ALDV), no distrito do município de Vitória do Xingu, estado do Pará. Este artigo tem por objetivo apresentar uma primeira análise do custo social do desenvolvimentismo no cotidiano dessa comunidade, uma vez que esta surge como resultado da grande rodovia e “renasce”, quarenta e dois anos depois, no contexto da UHBM. Para tanto, foram realizadas entrevistas com pioneiros da localidade, bem como pesquisa documental acerca do tema proposto. Os resultados apontam para a ocorrência de profundas transformações sociais aceleradas pela construção do empreendimento hidroelétrico, possibilitando questionar os “grandes projetos” na região amazônica e suas implicações sociais.

A feira é um espaço de troca e venda que envolve organização, contatos entre diferentes culturas, negociação e muita dinamicidade no seu cotidiano. A feira como um todo possibilita aos sujeitos um espaço no qual eles podem adquirir produtos de consumo diário, como frutas, carnes, frangos, legumes, dentre outros itens fundamentais para o subsídio da alimentação humana. É importante destacar que por se tratar de um ambiente de comercialização de mercadoria, oferece aos seus consumidores variadas e diversificadas opções, tanto de produtos quanto de preços, atendendo sempre à lógica de oferta e demanda e, por conseguinte, oportunizando as pessoas a consumirem conforme suas condições socioeconômicas[...]
El saber escolar de las artes en la escuela pública colombiana (1800-1850)
Authors: Cárdenas Óscar Leonardo , Cárdenas Marco Tulio
Published: January 2020

Establecido en el enfoque arqueo-genealógico, el presente artículo de reflexión tiene como propósito explorar las condiciones históricas que posibilitaron la emergencia del saber de las artes en la escuela pública colombiana, materializado en asignaturas escolares como el dibujo, el canto y la música, durante la primera mitad del siglo XIX. Bajo esta mirada, se rastrea su génesis, función y funcionamiento, el cual fue empleado como una tecnología de disciplinamiento para complementar los procesos de escolarización e instrucción pública y la constitución de sujetos escolares singulares y normalizados según la racionalidad disciplinaria establecida en el momento. Para alcanzar este objetivo, se exploraron en el archivo documental de la época los vestigios relacionados con el saber de las artes y las relaciones de poder que permitieron su emergencia.
Private initiative and professional communities as a factor of construction law formation in the Russian Empire
Authors: Jasem Mustafa Ahmed Jasem
Published: January 2020

This work is the first in a series of materials devoted to the forms of manifestation of private and public initiative in the construction law of Russia during the empire and the Soviet period. We center on the phenome-non of “private initiative” as a factor in city formation and construction law. The strength of this factor is illustrated by separate plots of the city-planning policy of the Russian Empire and local lore historical material. We actualize the problem of representation forms of private initiative and public inquiries. Factors of the construction law formation, besides objectively existing legis-lative activity of the state and the rule-making activities of local authorities, were the proposals of the professional community. We analyze the forms of such proposals (appeals) to the authorities in the context of the active formation of civic consciousness of the intellectual professional elite of Russia concerning city-planning activities and city-planning regulation. Private initiative is understood as a psychological, normative-generating base of social relations, which are the basis for the current complex of city-planning activity regulators. We draw conclusion about the representation of private public inquiries for a comfortable urban living environment in the form of proposals by the professional community to the state, which were formulated imperatively. We draw conclusion about the specific applied nature of legislative proposals in the field of city-planning regulation, which were generated by technical experts and territorial representatives.
Legislative regulation of the use and protection of marine mammals in Russia
Authors: Ustyantseva Olga Vladimirovna
Published: January 2020

We discuss the main provisions of the national legislation on the use and protection of marine mammals. In the absence of a special legislative act, legal issues are regulated by the laws “On Environmental Protection”, “On the Animal World”, “On Fishery and the Conservation of Aquatic Biological Resources”, which include marine mammals in the more general legal concept of “aquatic biological resources”, this approach remains in subordi-nate legislation. The assigment of marine mammals into a separate legal category will contribute to the improvement of legal ways of their conserva-tion and regulation of marine activities that affect the habitat (shipping, wind power facilities, extraction of aquatic bioresources, oil and gas). There is a need to develop and adopt rules for veterinary and sanitary examination (in relation to wild capture species); rules for assistance, rehabilitation and re-lease into the natural habitat of marine mammals affected by anthropogenic factors; rules of detention in captivity; recommendations for the observation of whales and other marine mammals. The author’s conclusions contribute to the achievement of the UN sustainable development goals, the promotion of the concept of “Blue economy” and the conservation of marine mammals as a global natural heritage.
A evasão em disciplinas de cursos de graduação
Authors: Fritsch Rosangela , Vitelli Ricardo Ferreira , Rocha Cleonice Silveira
Published: January 2020

O artigo tem como tema a evasão escolar na educação superior. O objetivo é identificar fatores que interferem na evasão em disciplinas de cursos de graduação em uma instituição de educação superior privada comunitária. Como método, foram realizadas análises descritivas de informações coletadas em bancos de dados da instituição, bem como análise multivariada, permitindo identificar um conjunto de fatores intervenientes na problemática da evasão. Como resultados, os grupos de fatores de risco identificados são de natureza estrutural, de dificuldades nas disciplinas e de escolha do curso. Os fatores que individualmente contribuem para a evasão são: a média do grau inicial na disciplina; o percentual de reprovação da turma e a média geral da turma; o tamanho da turma; e a média de créditos concluídos pelo discente, ou seja, quanto mais no início do curso, maior a chance de evasão. É possível concluir que a evasão se relaciona significativamente com percursos de insucessos escolares, especialmente de reprovações indicando a sua implicação com estudantes de classes menos favorecidas social e culturalmente e com processos macro de exclusão social.
