Essas coisas não lhes pertencem: relações entre legislação arqueológica, cultura material e comunidades
Authors: Ferreira Lúcio Menezes
Published: February 2018

A conferência trata das relações entre legislação arqueológica, cultura material e comunidades. Apresenta-se, inicialmente, um esboço histórico das legislações sobre patrimônio cultural no Ocidente e seus usos contemporâneos; em seguida, mostra como práticas arqueológicas alternativas, a exemplo da arqueologia comunitária, lidam com esse problema. Argumenta-se que essa discussão é bastante pertinente ao momento atual, especialmente o brasileiro, assoberbado pela arqueologia de contrato. Traz-se essa questão à baila na última parte da conferência, a modo de conclusão.
A César o que é de César: o patrimônio arqueológico nas organizações formais do Brasil
Authors: Saladino Alejandra , Costa Carlos Alberto Santos , Mendonça Elizabete de Castro
Published: February 2018

Na instituição do patrimônio cultural no Brasil, uma problemática adensa-se em tempos de consolidação da legislação ambiental e de uma agenda política de viés desenvolvimentista. A saber: a preservação e a gestão do patrimônio arqueológico. O objetivo deste artigo é refletir sobre tal aspecto a partir da análise da complexificação da instituição do patrimônio cultural resultante da criação de uma nova organização formal: o Instituto Brasileiro de Museus (IBRAM). Os resultados preliminares deste primeiro esforço reflexivo indicam que, para uma maior eficácia na utilização de instrumentos e práticas de preservação sobre o patrimônio arqueológico, é necessário delimitar seu campo de atuação e estabelecer claramente atribuições e competências, bem como um plano de ação articulado entre as organizações formais de instância federal.

Redomas de vidro: relações entre tato, cultura material e práticas de institucionalização
Authors: Pellini José Roberto
Published: February 2018

Uma pergunta costuma me atormentar, dada sua aparente obviedade: porque não podemos tocar os objetos em museus? Podemos ver, podemos olhar, mas não podemos interagir com a cultura material institucionalizada. Por quê? Embora a resposta mais óbvia seja a de que o toque pode resultar na destruição dos objetos, acredito que haja algo mais profundo envolto nessa questão, que é a construção do tato como o sentido do inculto, do selvagem. Nesse sentido, tocar ou não tocar estabelece um jogo de autoridade que define o Eu e o Outro. Ao mesmo tempo, ao se excluir a possibilidade da interação corporal com os objetos, limita-se o entendimento do público e perpetua-se um modelo específico de entender o mundo.
Situação atual da atividade turística em São Cristovão (Sergipe, Brasil)
Authors: Mello Paulo Jobim Campos
Published: February 2018

A cidade de São Cristóvão, localizada no estado de Sergipe, região Nordeste do Brasil, foi fundada em 1590 e é a quarta cidade mais antiga do país. Possui um patrimônio edificado de enorme relevância, tendo sido tombado pelo Instituto do Patrimônio Histórico Artístico Nacional (IPHAN), em 1967. O conjunto arquitetônico da Praça São Francisco, seu principal monumento, foi tombado pela UNESCO, em agosto de 2010, como Patrimônio Cultural da Humanidade. No entanto, mesmo passados mais de dois anos da elevação da Praça de São Francisco a patrimônio cultural da humanidade, parece que o processo de turistificação ainda não ocorreu na cidade. O presente trabalho pesquisa junto aos turistas que chegam à cidade qual a percepção que tem do patrimônio histórico, bem como da infraestrutura turística oferecida.

Seed Oil Accumulation and Yield of Safflower Affected by Water Supply and Harvest Time
Authors: Mohammadi M. , Ghassemi‐Golezani K. , Chaichi M. R. , Safikhani S.
Published: February 2018

Core Ideas

Deficit irrigation conditions decreased safflower seed and oil yield.

Safflower cultivars demonstrated different reactions drought stress.

Sina and Faraman cultivars had higher seed oil content across all irrigation treatments.

Highest oil yield across all irrigation treatments was produced by Sina cultivar

Harvest time deferment was associated with increased oil oxidation in all cultivars.

Drought stress significantly declines crop yield. Efficient soil moisture management and its consequent effects on metabolic changes which happen in response to drought stress are important in dry regions agriculture. This research was performed to evaluate yield, yield components, and oil accumulation in safflower (Carthamus tinctorius L.) cultivars seed in response to water deficit conditions. A field experiment was conducted at the Research Farm of the College of Agriculture, Tabriz University during two growing seasons of 2014 and 2015. The treatments were arranged as split plots based on randomized complete block design with three replicates. Irrigation treatments (irrigation after 70, 100, 130, and 160 mm evaporation from class A pan) were assigned to the main plots and spring safflower cultivars (Faraman, Goldasht, Sina, and Soffeh) were allocated to the subplots. Safflower seeds were harvested in 5‐d intervals at seven stages during development and maturity period. The result showed that Sina cultivar had the highest seed yield per unit area. Maximum oil percentage of safflower seeds was obtained at 1 to 12 d after plant physiological maturity. Water stress caused seed oil percentage decline across all cultivars. Sina and Faraman cultivars had higher oil percentage across all irrigation treatments. The highest oil and seed yield per unit area under both full and limited irrigation conditions was produced by Sina cultivar. Drought stress decreased seed yield, yield components, and oil content across all safflower cultivars, however, the extent of the damage was limited due to cultivar genetic characteristics and ecological origin.
Letters in Mean Comparisons: What They Do and Don’t Mean
Authors: Piepho Hans‐Peter
Published: February 2018

Core Ideas

Letter displays allow efficient reporting of pairwise treatment comparisons.

It is important to correctly convey the meaning of letters in captions to tables and graphs displaying treatment means.

The meaning of a letter display can and should be stated in a single sentence without ambiguity.

Letter displays are often used to report results of all pairwise comparisons among treatment means in comparative experiments. In captions to tables and charts using such letter displays, it is crucial to explain properly what the letters mean. In this paper I explain what the letters mean and how this meaning can be succinctly conveyed in a single sentence without ambiguity. This is contrasted to counter‐examples commonly found in publications.

Impact of Nitrogen Application Rate on Switchgrass Yield, Production Costs, and Nitrous Oxide Emissions
Authors: McGowan Andrew R. , Min Doo‐Hong , Williams Jeffery R. , Rice Charles W.
Published: February 2018

Switchgrass (Panicum virgatum L.) has been promoted as a potential feedstock for cellulosic biofuel in the United States. Switchgrass is known to respond to N fertilizer, but optimal rates remain unclear. Given the potential nonlinear response of nitrous oxide (N2O) emissions to N inputs, N additions to switchgrass above optimal levels could have large impacts on the greenhouse gas balance of switchgrass‐based biofuel. Additionally, N additions are likely to have large impacts on switchgrass production costs. Yield, N removal, and net returns were measured in switchgrass receiving 0 to 200 kg N ha−1 in Manhattan, KS, from 2012 to 2014. Emissions of N2O were measured in the 0‐ to 150‐kg N ha−1 treatments. Total emissions of N2O increased from 0.2 to 3.0 kg N2O‐N ha−1 as N inputs increased from 0 to 150 kg N ha−1. The 3‐yr averages of fertilizer‐induced emission factors were 0.7, 2.1, and 2.6% at 50, 100, and 150 kg N ha−1, respectively. Removal of N at harvest increased linearly with increasing N rate. Switchgrass yields increased with N inputs up to 100 to 150 kg N ha−1, but the critical N level for maximum yields decreased each year, suggesting that N was being applied in excess at higher N rates. Net returns were maximized at 100 kg N ha−1 at both a high and low urea cost (US$394.71 and $945.91 ha−1, respectively). These results demonstrate that N inputs were necessary to increase switchgrass productivity, but rates exceeding optimal levels resulted in excessive N2O emissions and increased costs for producers.

Core Ideas

Losses of fertilizer N as N2O increased with increasing N application rates.

Net return was maximized at an N rate of 100 kg N ha−1.

Nitrogen inputs were necessary to increase switchgrass productivity.

Rates exceeding optimal levels resulted in increased N2O emissions and costs.

Characterization by fluorescence of dissolved organic matter in rural drinking water storage tanks in Morocco
Authors: Aziz Faissal , Ouazzani Naaila , Mandi Laila , Assaad Aziz , Pontvianne Steve , Poirot Hélène , Pons Marie-Noëlle
Published: February 2018

Water storage tanks, fed directly from the river through opened channels, are particular systems used for water supply in rural areas in Morocco. The stored water is used as drinking water by the surrounding population without any treatment. UV-visible spectroscopy and fluorescence spectroscopy (excitation-emission matrices and synchronous fluorescence) have been tested as rapid methods to assess the quality of the water stored in the reservoirs as well as along the river feeding them. Synchronous fluorescence spectra (SFS50), collected with a difference of 50 nm between excitation and emission wavelengths, revealed a high tryptophan-like fluorescence, indicative of a pollution induced by untreated domestic and/or farm wastewater. The best correlations were obtained between the total SFS50 fluorescence and dissolved organic carbon (DOC) and biological oxygen demand, showing that the contribution of humic-like fluorescent substances cannot be neglected to rapidly assess reservoir water quality in terms of DOC by fluorescence spectroscopy.
Artificial neural networks: applications in the drinking water sector
Authors: O'Reilly G. , Bezuidenhout C. C. , Bezuidenhout J. J.
Published: February 2018

Artificial neural networks (ANNs) could be used in effective drinking water quality management. This review provides an overview about the history of ANNs and their applications and shortcomings in the drinking water sector. From the papers reviewed, it was found that ANNs might be useful modelling tools due to their successful application in areas such as pipes/infrastructure, membrane filtration, coagulation dosage, disinfection residuals, water quality, etc. The most popular ANNs applied were feed-forward networks, especially Multi-layer Perceptrons (MLPs). It was also noted that over the past decade (2006–2016), ANNs have been increasingly applied in the drinking water sector. This, however, is not the case for South Africa where the application of ANNs in distribution systems is little to non-existent. Future research should be directed towards the application of ANNs in South African distribution systems and to develop these models into decision-making tools that water purification facilities could implement.
Ecología Política y Sustentabilidad: Desfases en la incorporación de políticas ambientales y del desarrollo en la Costa Nahua de Michoacán, México
Authors: Figueroa Serrano David
Published: February 2018

Desde la década de 1980 la costa nahua de Michoacán, México ha sido una zona de interés gubernamental y empresarial por su biodiversidad y colindancia con el Océano Pacífico en una franja aproximada de 130 kilómetros. Diversas políticas federales han impactado las formas de apropiación con el entorno, principalmente las normativas enfocadas a la protección ambiental. Estas políticas se han conjuntado con la visión del desarrollo empresarial extractivista así como el modelo de desarrollo sustentable que se ha tratado de imponer a partir del ecoturismo. Este artículo busca explicar, desde la perspectiva de la ecología política, cómo en el ejercicio de diversas políticas ambientales se hace presente, de forma transversal, una visión de desarrollo empresarial así como el ideal del desarrollo sustentable que, en gran medida, puede confrontarse con los esquemas de sustentabilidad tradicional y el patrimonio biocultural de los pueblos nahuas.

O exercício relativo à saúde / aptidão física e desempenho esportivo tem mostrado um papel evolutivo ao longo do tempo. São apresentados fatores primários de grande escala, que provavelmente nos ajudarão a entender o caminho evolutivo futuro da saúde / aptidão física e desempenho esportivo. Esses fatores incluem: 1) a história do exercício, 2) o exercício em sua relação com a saúde, 3) a necessidade de aptidão física entre os militares e os socorristas, 4) a relação conflitante entre o esporte (representando o ápice da capacidade genômica humana para o exercício) versus a natureza excessivamente competitiva e compensada do esporte. Predominantemente, a necessidade de exercício como medicina preventiva em uma sociedade progressivamente mais sedentária, a necessidade de proporcionar a integração social e inclusão em uma sociedade altamente móvel, o risco de resultados sociais indesejáveis relacionados ao esporte e a probabilidade de interações humano-tecnológicas são suscetíveis de impulsionar a evolução do exercício no futuro.

Published: February 2018

O setor automotivo é responsável pela geração de resíduos de várias naturezas e que, por força de leis de proteção ambiental, devem ser destinados adequadamente. Neste trabalho foram analisados materiais contaminados por hidrocarbonetos, especificamente o óleo residual resultante das trocas e os componentes de filtros lubrificantes de veículos das montadoras Fiat, Honda e Iveco. Os dados foram coletados em concessionárias localizadas no Estado de Goiás, entre 2014 e 2015. As variáveis analisadas foram: óleo lubrificante novo utilizado nos veículos e óleo usado residual, o tamanho da frota de veículos nacionais e goiana, quantificação dos resíduos componentes do filtro lubrificante, com estimativas para Brasil e Goiás. Os resultados evidenciaram que o montante de óleo usado e contaminado pela frota veicular é elevado e requer destinação adequada por meio de logística reversa, bem como novas tecnologias dos componentes veiculares, em especial do filtro de óleo, para mitigar os impactos do setor.
Incidence and Functional Outcomes of Scapholunate Diastases Associated Distal Radius Fractures: A 2-year Follow-Up Scapholunate Dissociation
Authors: Lans Jonathan , Lasa Alejandro , Chen Neal C. , Jupiter Jesse B.
Published: February 2018

Background:

The Scapholunate Interosseous Ligament (SLIL) is the first intrinsic carpal ligament to be injured in wrist trauma, present in up to 64% of the distal radius fractures. However, it remains unclear what patients develop symptoms, making primary treatment of these injuries accompanying distal radius fractures remains questionable.

Objective:

The aim of this study was to evaluate the functional outcomes of patients with scapholunate diastasis associated with distal radius fractures.

Methods:

We evaluated 391 patients with a distal radius fracture. Using Computer Tomography (CT) scans the scapholunate interval was measured. We identified 14 patients with an SLD (>3mm) of the injured wrist, which underwent a CT-scan of the contralateral wrist. To evaluate the functional outcomes at a mean follow up of 136±90 weeks, we used the Quick Disabilities of the Arm, Shoulder and Hand (qDASH) Score.

Results:

There were 8 patients with bilateral SLD and 6 patients with unilateral SLD. Five patients had a qDASH score of 0 and one patient showed a qDASH score of 18.2. The patient with a poor score had bilateral preexisting osteoarthritis of the wrist. No patient had additional surgery of the SLIL.

Conclusion:

In patients with distal radius fractures, more than half of the 14 patients with an SL gap on CT had widening on the contralateral side. It is therefore worthwhile to image the contralateral wrist before diagnosing a SLD. The patients with unilateral SLD should not be surgically treated at initial presentation because they may have good functional outcomes after a follow up of 2 years.

Authors: Mulyana Sri , Sahputra Ilham
Published: February 2018

The accident that occurred to somebody will give much suffering; moreover, if the accident gives the serious injury, such as a broken bone which needs to get more seriously treatment. Not only does the patient need the action towards his/her injury, but also he/she needs the psychological therapy in facing the problems happened which is suggested by a psychologist. One of the reasoning method in expert systems is Case-Based Reasoning (CBR). In Case-Based Reasoning, a case-based consists of various cases in conditions or symptoms and solution (the psychological therapy) given. To find out the solution from a new problem given, the system will find any cases in the case-based which have higher the degree of similarity between the cases. This research develops a case-based reasoning system to decide the action of the psychological therapy towards the patients in the post-accident who needs seriously treatment. The psychological therapy involves in giving assistance, consultation, psychiatrist support, and the compound of various actions as well. A case study was conducted from the medical records of psychological treatment at ‘Dr Soeharso’ hospital in Surakarta. Based on the result of the research developed, the action of psychological therapy upon the patient has successfully determined. They have accuracy rates of 60% in the threshold 50% compared to the treatments resulted from the psychologist. The result was found by calculating the degree of similarity between the new issue and all cases existing in the case base.

Artiklen stiller – og besvarer – derfor spørgsmålet om, hvad et problem er. Endvidere argumenterer den for vigtigheden af at skelne mellem videns- og ledelsesproblemer.
The determinants of consumer behaviours in the furniture market
Authors: Zwierzyński Patryk
Published: February 2018

The article presents analysis of the determinants of consumer behaviours in the furniture market. Given the numerous factors that influence consumer behaviours, the author has decided to focus on the most important determinants affecting furniture purchasers’ attitudes in the Polish furniture market. The determinants are divided into indirect factors (economic, demographic and marketing) and direct ones. The he characteristics of furniture are also described. The publication is based on the literature and research conducted in the furniture market in previous years.
The features of marketing mix for non-profit organisations
Authors: Prynko Mariana , Chudzian Joanna
Published: February 2018

This article examines the concept of marketing mix for non-profit organisations. The authors suggest the use of “4Cs+people”, the elements of which include: consumer solution (mission, sphere of influence, role within the sphere of influence, representing common interests and advocacy, values for target audiences within the sphere of influence, goods and services offered for members, recipients and groups in the wider society), consumer cost (for members, volunteers, clients – service recipients, people and companies making individual financial and in-kind donations, organisations’ own employees, the mass media and legislators, employees of large international foundations and society in general), convenience (the place and means by which events are conducted), communication (advertisement, PR, communication strategy, communication style, how easily information can be found) and people (professionalism, attitude to people and job). We believe that this concept represents special features of the service sphere in general and of non-profit organisation operations in particular.
Searching for late neolithic spinning bowls in the central Balkans
Authors: Svilar Marija
Published: February 2018

Over the past twenty years, research on textile has received increasing
attention in archaeology worldwide, providing new insights into one of the
most important crafts in human history. In contrast, activities related to
spinning and weaving in the Late Neolithic settlements in the Central Balkans
have only be treated with cursory attention, which has resulted in nothing
more than a set of general assumptions in archaeological literature. Though
some progress has recently been made, investigations of textile in
prehistoric contexts are still far from their full potential. The quest for
spinning bowls in ceramic assemblages constitutes an important part of the
given research, providing new evidence on the production of both textiles and
pottery. Therefore, the focus of this paper is on the available evidence for
those activities related to textile production in the Late Neolithic,
primarily to spinning, with special emphasis on the earliest occurrence of
spinning bowls in the Central Balkans i.e. the technology of wetting and
tightening plant fibres in ceramic vessels.

Established by the Global Engagement Task Force, this committee was charged with examining the usage of journal rankings internationally. Through questionnaires, literature review, and discussions with various international accounting organizations we gain a better understanding of the uses and challenges of journal rankings. Journal rankings are used by governments, professional accounting bodies, university organizations, individual universities, schools, and departments to evaluate the quality and quantity of faculty research productivity. Rewards for journal publications differ around the world, but can range from promotion and tenure to monetary rewards. Publishing in a journal that is on a journal list does provide some weight or legitimacy to the publication and thereby assists in promoting the academic's career, yields monetary awards, or is in other ways beneficial to the academic. However, there is a danger in using a one-size-fits-all model. We caution strongly against using journal rankings to primarily assess the research quality of individuals or even small groups, because rankings are by design unsuited for this purpose. When journal rankings are used, they should be used in conjunction with other metrics. It is highly unlikely that a single solution with regard to the usage of journal ranking lists can be proposed. Rather, different accounting schools and/or departments need to set up their own guidelines as to how journal ranking lists can be used in decision making. The balance of the evidence suggests that journal ranking lists should be used with caution, and should not be used to assess individuals or small groups, or to assess research quality across disciplines.
Insulin/Glucagon-Like Peptide-1 Receptor Agonist Combination Therapy for the Treatment of Type 2 Diabetes: Are Two Agents Better Than One?
Authors: Aroda Vanita R. , Arulandu Joseph R. , Cannon Anthony J.
Published: February 2018

IN BRIEF Given the progressive nature of type 2 diabetes, treatment intensification is usually necessary to maintain glycemic control. However, for a variety of reasons, treatment is often not intensified in a timely manner. The combined use of basal insulin and a glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor agonist is recognized to provide a complementary approach to the treatment of type 2 diabetes. This review evaluates the efficacy and safety of two co-formulation products, insulin degludec/liraglutide and insulin glargine/lixisenatide, for the treatment of type 2 diabetes inadequately controlled on either component agent alone. We consider the benefits and limitations of these medications based on data from randomized clinical trials and discuss how they may address barriers to treatment intensification.

Authors: Oliveira Glícia Ribeiro de , Cunha Maria Claudia
Published: February 2018

Introdução: Nos dias atuais, estudos sobre o uso dos animais no tratamento com pessoas (Intervenções Assistidas por Animais, as IAAs) ressaltam efeitos benéficos, melhoria na promoção ou melhoria da saúde. Objetivo: Descrever os efeitos da Atividade Assistida por Animais (AAA) nas condutas comunicativas de idosos. Método: Pesquisa de natureza clínico-qualitativa, desenvolvida em uma clínica geriátrica, obedecendo aos critérios éticos para a realização de pesquisas com seres humanos. Casuística: nove idosos, de ambos os sexos, na faixa etária entre 61 e 92 anos, residentes em uma clínica, que demonstraram disposição/motivação mediante contato com o cão participante do estudo. Procedimento: foram seis sessões em grupo, de periodicidade mensal, com duração de 45 minutos, gravados em vídeo. O material foi transcrito ortograficamente destacando-se os elementos verbais e não verbais mais significantes da interação fonoaudiólogo-idosos-cão, privilegiando-se as condutas comunicativas. Foram registradas três sessões da pesquisadora ao grupo dos nove idosos sem a presença do cão, para efeito comparativo. Resultados: A presença do cão foi um facilitador das interações e promoveu o estabelecimento/fortalecimento dos vínculos interpessoais quanto à ocorrência e a caracterização da atividade dialógica, ocorrência e caracterização de condutas não verbais e das condutas psicossociais dos idosos. Conclusão: A presença do cão configurou-se como recurso potente, cuja efetividade foi revelada pela evolução significativa do desempenho comunicativo dos sujeitos estudados. Esta pesquisa pretendeu contribuir com a busca de evidências científicas sobre o tema, especificamente na Fonoaudiologia.

Alternative Photography as an Ethnographic Method
Authors: Bartlett Flora
Published: February 2018

In this article I discuss the creative potential of alternative photographic processes in anthropological research. I argue that an experimental, fine art approach to photography can be more effective in fieldwork than the ubiquitous documentary style favoured to illustrate ethnographic texts. Using my own early-stage research, I discuss the potential of using photograms, cyanotypes, and archival images. I discuss the potential of these forms for multimedia interventions, through the inclusion of text into the physical image-objects themselves. This approach to visual methodologies challenges the positioning of the researcher to their participants and allows collaboration and creative engagement in the field. It connects visual practice with phenomenological approaches to experience.

Authors: Zygadlewicz Maciej
Published: February 2018

Motywacja: Telekomunikacja Polska SA (dalej TP SA) przez wiele lat miała pozycję monopolisty w branży telekomunikacyjnej w Polsce. Proces prywatyzacji spółki rozpoczął się w 1998 roku, towarzyszyły mu zmiany w branży telekomunikacyjnej, w kierunku jej większej liberalizacji. Rozpoczęcie działalności przez nowych operatorów zwiększyło poziom konkurencji. Usługi były coraz tańsze dla konsumentów, rozpoczęto oferować usługi wiązane, a nowe technologie telekomunikacyjne rozwijały się bardzo szybko. Przekształcenia, jakie dokonywały się w branży telekomunikacyjnej, w znacznym stopniu wpływały na zmiany sytuacji finansowej Grupy Kapitałowej Orange Polska (dalej Grupa Orange). W literaturze przedmiotu brakuje interpretacji zależności między procesem prywatyzacji dokonującym się w branży telekomunikacyjnej a sytuacją finansową jej było monopolisty. Chęć ukazania tej zależności jest głównym motywem wyboru tematu niniejszego artykułu.Cel: Celem niniejszego artykułu jest wykazanie zależności między prywatyzacją TP SA a sytuacją finansową Grupy Orange. Badanie zostało przeprowadzone za pomocą analizy finansowej i techniczno-ekonomicznej. Materiał empiryczny stanowią raporty i sprawozdania Grupy Orange.Wyniki: Analiza wyników finansowych Grupy Orange w analizowanym okresie wykazała, że prywatyzacja TP SA wywarła negatywny wpływ na sytuacje finansową Grupy Orange.
La educación, ocupación y posibilidades de empleo para urbanistas en Alemania
Authors: Schubert Dirk
Published: February 2018

Aunque las actividades urbanísticas y de diseño urbano tienen un larga tradición en Alemania, la ordenación de ciudades y regiones es una disciplina joven en sus universidades. A finales del siglo XIX, la planificación de ciudades constituía una ciencia específica (Albers, 1975). Estaba basada en otras ciencias, como la higiene científica, estadística e ingeniería, alojamientos e investigaciones urbanas. Hasta la Primera Guerra Mundial, la planificación de ciudades se establecía como disciplina en revistas especializadas, libros de texto, manuales, conferencias, exhibiciones al tiempo que en instituciones y la práctica de la ordenación.
