Cinema, estilo e análise fílmica
Authors: Raddi Uchôa Fábio , Adamatti Margarida Maria
Published: August 2020

O livro Cinema, estilo e análise fílmica é um dos resultados dos seminários e horizontes comuns de pesquisa, articulados pelo grupo Cine&Arte entre os anos 2017-2020, coordenado por Fábio Uchôa, Pedro Plaza Pinto e Margarida Adamatti. O grupo surge em 2017, com o objetivo de unir indagações sobre a análise fílmica e o uso de fontes decorrentes de pesquisas em arquivos. Sua proposta inicial, e em constante questionamento, une essas duas vertentes, nomeadas como “Práticas de análise audiovisual e Análises e arquivos audiovisuais”. O Cine&Arte, portanto, dedica-se às teorias e práticas de análise de filmes, aplicadas ao cinema e a outras mídias audiovisuais, tomadas em sua diversidade artística, histórica, política e arquivística. Entre as possibilidades existentes, encontram-se a análise imanente, a inspiração em modos de abordagem historicamente consolidados, o uso de materiais de arquivos, ou ainda a transposição de práticas entre diferentes campos, abrindo-se à constante criação, suscitada pelas aproximações entre objetos e teorias. A vertente de “Práticas de análise audiovisual” inclui o mapeamento de teorias do audiovisual, testadas em seus potenciais analíticos, promovendo renovados olhares, teorizações e construções sistêmicas. Trata-se de abordagens que podem acompanhar a história do audiovisual, identificando as relações com os respectivos contextos, escolas, autorias e formas de análise. A linha “Análises e arquivos audiovisuais” enfatiza estudos construídos a partir de pesquisas em Arquivos e Cinematecas. São de interesse aportes de análise, no trato com materiais associados a processos de preservação, restauro e difusão, ou então, tomados em pesquisas sobre trajetórias de intelectuais, críticos e instituições.

Avaliação escolar: uma contribuição sócio-histórica para o estudo da atribuição de notas
Authors: Gil Natália de Lacerda
Published: August 2020

A atribuição de notas ou conceitos aos alunos é prática cotidiana nas escolas, embora tenhamos muito pouco conhecimento sobre os critérios efetivamente mobilizados pelos professores nesses processos e conheçamos ainda pouco acerca da história desse aspecto da cultura escolar. Assim, no presente trabalho busco contribuir com a história da avaliação principalmente do ponto de vista teórico, focalizando, em diálogo com estudos sociológicos, a dimensão classificatória envolta na escala de excelência escolar que a atribuição de notas permite formular. A fim de exemplificar a potencialidade do exame de fontes constituídas a partir da escrituração escolar, apresento a análise de fichas de notas de uma escola católica de Porto Alegre entre 1957 e 1964. Articulando-se a estudos já desenvolvidos sobre o tema na História da Educação, neste trabalho explicito o detalhamento e a busca de precisão e objetividade perceptíveis na quantificação dos desempenhos escolares e no debate pedagógico acerca da questão.

Authors: Mariano Jorge Luís Mazzeo , Ribeiro Arilda Ines Miranda
Published: August 2020

O objetivo deste artigo é discutir a penetração de alguns traços nacionalistas na cultura escolar das primeiras instituições públicas de ensino da região do extremo oeste paulista. O recorte espacial compreendeu os municípios de Presidente Bernardes e Presidente Venceslau, entre 1932 e 1960. Por meio do aporte da História Oral, foram realizadas entrevistas com docentes e discentes que frequentaram as instituições no período. Utilizou-se também dos referenciais da História Cultural e da História Regional. Durante os 28 anos enfocados o Estado criou políticas de incentivo ao patriotismo que incidiam nas escolas, sendo possível constatar que as docentes contribuíram para a disseminação de elementos nacionalistas uma vez que a cultura escolar incorporou e difundiu diversas práticas ufanistas.
Evaluatıon of the clınıcal environment and the professıonal behavıor of nurses by means of the eyes of nursıng students
Authors: Öner Hatice , Erdem Ümre
Published: August 2020

Aim: The study was aimed to reveal the first clinical observations and observations about professional behaviors of first year nursing students. Method: A qualitative research method was used. The data were collected using document analysis as a qualitative research method. 60 nurs­ing first year students were included in the research group. Inductive content analysis method was used to analyze the data. Findings: As a result of the document analysis two main categories which were “my first observations” and "observations of professional behaviors”. Four themes regarding the my first observations were identified. These themes were “physical properties of the hospital/clinic”, “observations about the general condition of patients and patient relatives”, “observations about health professional”, “my observations about me in terms of being a student for the first time”. Two themes regarding the observations for professional behaviors were identified. These themes, “behaviors considered as professional in nurses” and “non-professional behaviors observed in nurses” and related sub-themes were identified. Conclusions: The students were affected by the physical conditions of the clinic and the approach of health professionals to students. It is recommended that clinical practices should be planned on the basis of the collaboration between schools and hospitals to support the professional behavior of students.
VALIDA project: Validation of allergy in vitro diagnostics assays (Tools and recommendations for the assessment of in vitro tests in the diagnosis of allergy)
Authors: Casas María L. , Esteban Ángel , González-Muñoz Miguel , Labrador-Horrillo Moisés , Pascal Mariona , Teniente-Serra Aina
Published: August 2020

In vitro allergen-specific immunoglobulin E (IgE) detection and quantification tests are routinely performed in clinical laboratories to diagnose patients with a suspected allergy. Numerous commercial assays are available to test for allergies, but the results can vary widely, thereby influencing both diagnosis and treatment. Given the challenges posed by differences in the various assays for in vitro determination of specific IgE, a group of experts has compiled in a document a series of recommendations on the implications that the use of a certain in vitro technique may have and the impact on the management of the allergic patient that the differences between the various techniques represent. The reading and analysis of this consensus document will help to understand the implications of the change of in vitro diagnostic method in the management of the patient with allergy, in the quality of life and in the socioeconomic costs associated with the disease.
NUDT15 polymorphism explains serious toxicity to azathioprine in Indian patients with chronic immune thrombocytopenia and autoimmune hemolytic anemia: a case series
Authors: Devasia Anup J. , Illangeswaran Raveen Stephen Stallon , Raj Infencia Xavier , George Biju , Balasubramanian Poonkuzhali
Published: August 2020

Objectives

Azathioprine (AZA) is a commonly used immunosuppressant in patients with autoimmune diseases. The toxic side effect to AZA (myelosuppression, hair loss, and oral ulcers) are highly unpredictable which can be life threatening if not identified earlier and dose adjustments made or the drug is withdrawn.

Case presentation

Here we report a case series of five patients with severe toxicity while on treatment with AZA for autoimmune hemolytic anemia (n=1) and Immune thrombocytopenia (n=4). The common thiopurine methyltransferase (TPMT) variants (TPMT*2, *3A, *3B) were not present in these patients. However, all these patients had the NUDT15 415C>T variant that has been reported to explain serious toxicity to thioguanine in Asian patients.

Conclusions

Our report suggests pre-emptive genotype-based dosing of AZA could reduce adverse toxicity and hence better outcome.
Formal Institutions and Informal Entrepreneurial Activity: Panel Data Evidence from Latin American Countries
Authors: Salinas Aldo , Ortiz Cristian , Muffatto Moreno , Changoluisa Javier
Published: August 2020

The objective of this work is to examine the influence of formal institutions on the level of informal entrepreneurial activity in Latin American countries. We use a panel dataset for 18 countries during the 2004–2017 periods. This dataset has not been widely used for longitudinal research by academics in the field of entrepreneurship in developing countries. Using the percentage of the adult population identified as self-employed as a proxy for informal entrepreneurial activity, our results suggest that informal entrepreneurial activity is lower in Latin American countries that have stronger property rights and lighter business regulation. However, countries with more flexible labor regulation show higher informal entrepreneurial activity. Therefore, we believe there is margin for policy intervention to reduce informal entrepreneurial activities in Latin America.
The COVID-19 and bond spreads
Authors: Esteves Rui , Sussman Nathan
Published: August 2020

Financial markets reacted with a vengeance to the COVID-19 pandemic. We argue that while the spread of the pandemic is statistically significant in explaining changes to bond spreads, it has little additional explanatory power over variables that capture financial stress. Financial markets reacted as in any international financial crisis by penalizing emerging economies exposing existing vulnerabilities. This finding highlights the need for credible, but flexible, sovereign currencies and the need to build up liquidity reserves.
Construction of Pressure Tunnels
Authors: Zabuski Lesław
Published: August 2020

The paper focuses on two pressure tunnels in the design of “Kąty-Myscowa” water reservoir. One of them serves as a discharge conduit, whereas the other plays an energetic role. Their depths range between 0 and 75 metres and their diameters equal 5 m. Tunnels are located in the rock mass of Carpathian flysch which is anisotropic and heterogeneous, composed of layers of sandstone and clay shales and intersected with interbedding fissures and numerous joints. The paper is divided in two parts. The first part focuses on methods of excavating and supporting, as well as injecting and sealing (i.e. waterproofing) the tunnel. In the second part, a numerical analysis using the FLAC2D code based on the finite difference method was carried for calculating displacements and internal forces in the preliminary support and in permanent lining. Results of the analysis allow for the assessment of conditions in the tunnel during its excavation and exploitation stages.
Ships and Boats in David Jones’s Tristan ac Essyllt
Authors: Field P. J. C.
Published: August 2020

David Jones’s last important painting, Tristan ac Essylt, shows its central figures surrounded by other people, beset by dangers, and being carried inexorably towards their meeting with King Mark, to all of which they are sublimely unconscious. Jones renders the world in which the lovers are set, and particularly the ships in which they travel, with a mixture of historical authenticity (whose full extent has often eluded commentators) and non-naturalistic freedom that suggest simultaneously a powerful physicality and the possible presence of hidden forces working to other ends.
Dynamic routing and wavelength assignment for efficient traffic grooming
Authors: Mohan Neeraj , Kaushal Priyanka
Published: August 2020

The routing and wavelength assignment (RWA) schemes play an important role in all computer networks. The performance of a computer network and resource utilization largely depend on the RWA. The demand for higher bandwidth is increasing with each passing day, so more efficient RWA schemes need to be devolved to cater the increasing requirements. RWA becomes more challenging for dynamic traffic as the nature and flow of data are not known in advance. In this paper, a dynamic RWA scheme has been proposed for establishing a path in optical networks. The proposed scheme is based upon dynamic conversion sensing algorithm. It can be applied on a number of different network topologies. The proposed scheme is dynamic in nature, which is significantly useful for dynamic traffic grooming. The proposed scheme has been applied on 14 nodes National Science Foundation Network (NFSNet). Simulation results have shown that the blocking probability of this scheme is very low as compared to the existing schemes. So, the proposed dynamic RWA scheme enhances the network efficiency. It is useful for congestion hit networks. The reduced blocking probability in wavelength division multiplexing optical networks leads to better resource utilization and enhanced performance.
How useful are anthropometric measurements as predictive markers for elevated blood pressure in adolescents in different gender?
Authors: Erdal İzzet , Yalçin Songül S. , Aksan Ayşegül , Gençal Didem , Kanbur Nuray
Published: August 2020

Background

Obesity and obesity-related diseases are one of the common health problems worldwide and have also been proposed to be important predictors of blood pressure and cardiovascular disease risk. The aim of our study is to determine the utility of different anthropometric measurements (body mass index [BMI], skinfold thickness [SFT], waist circumference [WC], mid-upper arm circumference [MUAC], arm circumference-height ratio [AHtR], and waist circumference-height ratio [WHtR]) as markers of hypertension (HT) risk in adolescents.

Methods

In this cross-sectional study, 544 participants aged between 12 and 13 years were included. Anthropometric measurements and blood pressure of participants were measured. The association of different anthropometric measurements with blood pressure was evaluated.

Results

The frequency of both elevated blood pressure and HT was 30.2%. Biceps, triceps, and suprailiac SFT have an impact on HT in girls but only suprailiac SFT in boys. WC measurements above the 85th percentile were strongly correlated with HT conditions, and this relationship was stronger in boys than in girls (3.3 vs. 2.6 fold). MUAC, WHtR, and AHtR measurements also have strong correlation with HT in boys but only WHtR has a poor relation in girls. In boys and girls with obesity, there was a positive association between obesity and blood pressures.

Conclusions

Not only age-related BMI z scores but also a number of other anthropometric measurements, such as WC, SFT, MUAC, WHtR, and AHtR, could have an influence on high blood pressure. The influence changes with gender during adolescence.
Common and Comprehensive European Definition of Hate-Speech Alternative Proposal
Authors: Teršek Andraž
Published: August 2020

Europe needs to define the term and legal (criminal & constitutional) concept of “hate speech” precisely. The definition must be written in legal literature and in legislation. It must also be offered by the European Constitutional Courts and, last but not least, by the ECtHR. A descriptive definition offered inter alia by the ECtHR judgement in case of Vejdeland vs. Sweden (2012) was only a guidance. The new ECtHR judgement in the case of Carl Jóhann Lilliendahl vs. Iceland (11th of June 2020) addressed “homophobic speech” as “hate speech” directly. By combining the ECtHR case-law on freedom of expression in the last five years with understanding of this concept in the Slovenian Criminal Code (and with only subordinated reference to the understanding of this term by the European Commission) the author offers an alternative proposal for a new, common and comprehensive European definition of “hate speech.”

${\overline{M}}_{\mathrm{W}}$

, of about 0.6 × 106, 5 × 106 and 9 × 106. In 10 mm thick compact tension specimens, crack propagation was so erratic that it was impossible to follow standard procedure, where crack-tip stress intensity amplitude, ΔK, is raised incrementally, and the resulting crack propagation rate, da/dN, increases, following the Paris equation, where a is crack length and N is number of cycles. Instead, most of the tests were conducted at fixed high values of ΔK. Typically, da/dN then started at a high level, but decreased irregularly during the test. Micrographs of fracture surfaces showed that crack propagation was sporadic in these specimens. In one test, at ΔK = 2.3 MPa m0.5, there were crack-arrest marks at intervals Δa of about 2 μm, while the number of cycles between individual growth steps increased from 1 to more than 1000 and the fracture surface showed increasing evidence of plastic deformation. It is concluded that sporadic crack propagation was caused by energy-dissipating crazing, which was initiated close to the crack tip under plane strain conditions in mouldings that were not fully consolidated. By contrast, fatigue crack propagation in 4 mm thick specimens followed the Paris equation approximately. The results from all four reports on this project are reviewed, and the possibility of using fatigue testing as a quality assurance procedure for melt-processed UHMWPE is discussed.
A comparative study of cohesive zone models for predicting delamination fracture behaviors of arterial wall
Authors: Miao Ting , Tian Liqiong , Leng Xiaochang , Miao Zhangmu , Wang Jingjing , Xu Chengjun , Liu Lisheng
Published: August 2020

Arterial tissue delamination, manifested as the fracture failure between arterial layers, is an important process of the atherosclerotic plaque rupture, leading to potential life-threatening clinical consequences. Numerous models have been used to characterize the arterial tissue delamination fracture failure. However, only a few have investigated the effect of cohesive zone model (CZM) shapes on predicting the delamination behavior of the arterial wall. In this study, four types of CZMs (triangular, trapezoidal, linear–exponential, and exponential–linear) were investigated to compare their prediction of the arterial wall fracture failure. The Holzapfel–Gasser–Ogden (HGO) model was adopted for modeling the mechanical behavior of the aortic bulk material. The CZMs optimized during the comparison of the aortic media delamination simulations were also used to perform the comparative study of the mouse plaque delamination and human fibrous cap delamination. The results show that: (1) the numerical predicted the relationships of force–displacement in the delamination behaviors based on the triangular, trapezoidal, linear–exponential, and exponential–linear CZMs match well with the experimental measurements. (2) The traction–separation relationship results simulated by the four types of CZMs could react well as the corresponding CZM shapes. (3) The predicted load–load point displacement curves using the triangular and exponential–linear CZMs are in good agreement with the experimental data, relative to the other two shapes of CZMs. All these provide a new method combined with the factor of shape in the cohesive models to simulate the crack propagation behaviors and can capture the arterial tissue failure response well.
Influence of different seismic motion input modes on the performance of isolated structures with different seismic measures

Published: August 2020

In order to obtain the influence of different seismic motion input modes on the performance of isolated structures with different seismic measures, the two aspects from near-fault seismic motion velocity pulse input and different dimension seismic motion input modes are studied. The finite element model of traditional seismic and base isolation frame structure with different aspect ratios is established. The actual near-seismic strong earthquake record with forward directional effect and slipping speed pulse is used as the input method of structural seismic motion to carry out nonlinear dynamics. The different dimensional seismic motion input method is selected as the quantitative, the tensile–compression stiffness ratio is the variable, and the time-history analysis of the isolation performance of a high-rise isolated structure is carried out. The experimental results show that for structures with an aspect ratio H/B of 1, 2, 3, and 4, the smaller the aspect ratio is, the better the damping effect is; the different dimensional vibration input has less isolation performance for the isolation bearing. From small to large, it is: one-dimensional vibration input, two-dimensional vibration input, three-dimensional vibration input.
New elements within finite element modeling of magnetostriction phenomenon in BLDC motor
Authors: Jerzy Podhajecki , Stanislaw Rawicki
Published: August 2020

Reluctance forces are the main cause of vibration in electrical machines. The influence of magnetostriction is still the matter of controversy. In the article, program Ansys (typical for finite element method) was used to analyze stator deformation due to magnetic forces (Maxwell and magnetostriction) for the different boundaries and different methods by taking into account the windings in the mechanical model. Different parameters of numerical model are important factors affecting the level of magnetostriction deformation.
Polymorphs of Neodymium Niobate and Tantalate Thin Films Prepared by Sol-Gel Method
Authors: Bruncková H. , Medvecký Ľ. , Múdra E. , Kovalčiková A.
Published: August 2020

Neodymium niobate NdNbO4 (NNO) and tantalate NdTaO4 (NTO) thin films (~100 nm) were prepared by sol-gel/spin-coating process on Pb(Zr0.52Ti0.48)O3/Al2O3 substrates with annealing at 1000°C. The precursors of films were synthesized using Nb or Ta tartrate complexes. The XRD results of NNO and NTO films confirmed tetragonal T-NdNbO4 and T-NdTaO4 phases, respectively, with traces of monoclinic MNdNbO4 and M´-NdTaO4. The surface morphology and topography were investigated by SEM and AFM analysis. NTO was smoother with roughness 5.24 nm in comparison with NNO (6.95 nm). In the microstructure of NNO, small spherical (~ 20-50 nm) T-NdNbO4 and larger needle-like particles (~100 nm) of M-NdNbO4 phase were observed. The compact clusters composed of fine spherical T-NdTaO4 particles (~ 50 nm) and cuboidal M´-NdTaO4 particles (~ 100 nm) were found in NTO. The results of this work can contribute to formation of different polymorphs of films for the application in environmental electrolytic thin film devices.

Published: August 2020

The influence of die wall lubrication during warm die compaction on densification, microstructure and mechanical properties of three low alloy ferrous powders was investigated. Specimens were sintered at 1250°C. Die wall lubrication leads to higher green and sintered density and enhances the dimensional stability. It does not affect the microstructure of the matrix, while pores are smaller and more rounded than in bulk lubricated specimens. In TRS tests, both strength and deformation are higher in die wall lubricated specimens than bulk lubricated ones.
Virus, bats and drugs

Published: August 2020

Apart from SARS-Co-V-2 coronavirus, bats also host many highly virulent zoonotic pathogens. A matter of rising concern is the detrimental impact of pharmaceuticals in the environment, as they can have major impact at low concentrations. Insectivorous bats are among the wildlife animals likely to be exposed due to the bioaccumulation through the food web. Bat’s behaviour might be deeply affected by human psychoactive drugs. Current massive antiviral use activity will increase environmental concentrations of these pharmaceuticals, for whose potential eco-toxicological consequences are scarce. We need to study the complex interrelation between people, bats, drugs, viruses, and their shared environment.
Storytelling: representaciones mediáticas de las memorias en Colombia
Authors: Pardo Abril Neyla Graciela
Published: August 2020

Collective memories are multiple discursive practices, in which social representations about a common past are used to build and maintain cohesion and identity of groups socio-historically located at a socio-culturally determined moment and to project future in frameworks of rights and dignity. It is understood that the memories articulated to the Colombian armed conflict are diverse: different stories of violence, oppression and resistance of peoples, communities and groups are identified and made explicit. Thirty media narratives distributed in the ElTiempo.com Special “Thirty encounters with peace” (2017) comprise the universe of research. The sample is made up of seven narratives that propose the sense of testimony. The selected format is storytelling, which is built in the special edition of the newspaper as a communication proposal for the reconstruction of the social fabric, within the year after the signing of the Peace Agreement between the National Government and the FARC-EP (post-agreement). The research is nucleated on situations of rights violations linked to the conflict, and the proposals derived from these narratives, as regards the overcoming of the exercises of violence to which they refer. The analysis is assumed from the principles of Multimodal and Multimedia Critical Discourse Studies (MMCDS). The forms of representation in the discourses, their multimodal articulations and the multimedia implications in the production of meanings are articulated; the final aim is to derive sociopolitical consequences of the discursive proposal, constructed and socialized in the narratives of the special edition of the newspaper.
Die Empfehlungen des Fintech-Rates zur Regulierung von Blockchains im Lichte ungeklärter Fragen der Haftung
Authors: Thießen Friedrich
Published: August 2020

This paper examines the recommendations of the German Fintech Council of March 2019 regarding a future blockchain strategy for Germany. The recommendations are the Fintech Council’s response to the German government’s wish to develop a blockchain strategy. The proposals contain many valuable elements, whereby the principle of liability is neglected. Cases from the short history of blockchain applications prove severe problems and show the extent to which the principle of liability is violated. Liability is one of the fundamental pillars of functioning market economies. There seems to be a tendency in Europe to underrate or under-emphasise the principle of liability when innovative digital developments are looked at. As long as developments are at the experimental stage, there is no objection to this. But in real operation, adequate liability is indispensable. It is the aim of this article to recall this.
Was bedeuten die Vertrauensguteigenschaften der Jahresabschlussprüfung für die Regulierung der Wirtschaftsprüferhaftung?
Authors: Ritzer-Angerer Petra
Published: August 2020

The annual audit is the auditors’ main activity. It includes risk analysis, planning and execution. Credence goods are special goods or services whose suppliers have superior information about the quality, e. g. therapies or repairs. The customer cannot evaluate whether the service was appropriate. As the audit is sophisticated and a professional act, it is reasonable to assume that the auditor is better informed. Hence the audit can be considered a credence good. This article discusses two questions: Does the audit comply with the characteristics of credence goods and can regulation – especially of the auditor’s liability – mitigate the audit market problems caused by this?
“Activité théorique, activité poétique”: de Benveniste a Meschonnic
Authors: Neumann Daiane
Published: August 2020

O objetivo deste artigo é problematizar a atividade teórica e a atividade poética, concebendo-as como solidárias. Essa discussão se torna possível, neste texto, a partir do resgate da concepção de linguagem proposta por Baudelaire, Benjamin e Agamben, em finais do século XIX e inícios e meados do século XX. É em Benveniste, no entanto, que encontramos a teorização e a reflexão linguística acerca dessa linguagem que é colocada no centro da constituição do conhecimento, do homem, da cultura, da sociedade. O percurso teórico aqui esboçado é que torna possível a discussão apresentada por Meschonnic, ao considerar que a atividade teórica e a atividade poética são solidárias.
Ibat obscurus: o périplo benvenistiano de Jean-Claude Milner
Authors: Rosário Heloisa Monteiro
Published: August 2020

Este trabalho propõe uma discussão de um dos capítulos do livro Le périple structural – Figures et paradigme, publicado em 2008, por Jean-Claude Milner. Trata-se do texto “Benveniste II – Ibat obscurus”, no qual o autor apresenta uma leitura bastante particular do pensamento de Émile Benveniste. Através de uma articulação envolvendo dados biográficos e pensamento do linguista, Milner identifica aspectos relativos a duas questões – a questão judaica, de um lado, e a política, de outro – não comumente apontadas em sua reflexão. Ou seja, o ponto de vista adotado por Milner envolve uma perspectiva metodológica que permite a prospecção teórica, a produção de novas/outras leituras do pensamento do linguista. É essa perspectiva que se objetiva mostrar neste estudo. Para tanto, apresenta-se inicialmente o modo como Milner concebe e organiza seu périplo. Discute-se mais especificamente o capítulo em questão, salientando-se a articulação estabelecida por Milner. E, por fim, apresentam-se algumas considerações a respeito dessa reflexão.

Local Design Principles at Hippocampal Synapses Revealed by an Energy-Information Trade-Off
Authors: Mahajan Gaurang , Nadkarni Suhita
Published: August 2020

Synapses across different brain regions display distinct structure-function relationships. We investigated the interplay of fundamental design constraints that shape the transmission properties of the excitatory CA3-CA1 pyramidal cell connection, a prototypic synapse for studying the mechanisms of learning in the mammalian hippocampus. This small synapse is characterized by probabilistic release of transmitter, which is markedly facilitated in response to naturally occurring trains of action potentials. Based on a physiologically motivated computational model of the rat CA3 presynaptic terminal, we show how unreliability and short-term dynamics of vesicular release work together to regulate the trade-off of information transfer versus energy use. We propose that individual CA3-CA1 synapses are designed to operate near the maximum possible capacity of information transmission in an efficient manner. Experimental measurements reveal a wide range of vesicular release probabilities at hippocampal synapses, which may be a necessary consequence of long-term plasticity and homeostatic mechanisms that manifest as presynaptic modifications of the release probability. We show that the timescales and magnitude of short-term plasticity (STP) render synaptic information transfer nearly independent of differences in release probability. Thus, individual synapses transmit optimally while maintaining a heterogeneous distribution of presynaptic strengths indicative of synaptically-encoded memory representations. Our results support the view that organizing principles that are evident on higher scales of neural organization percolate down to the design of an individual synapse.
1 Corinthians 10:1–4: The Rhetorical-Poetic Effect of Vividness and Emotions in Paul's Exhortation to Monotheism in the Context of 10:1–22
Authors: Córdova Nélida Naveros
Published: August 2020

In 1 Cor. 10:1–22, Paul deals with the role of Christ and his relationship to God. This is an important ethical topic that Paul deems necessary to discuss with the Corinthian believers. In order to make an effective, thus persuasive, argument, he follows the ancient Greco-Roman tradition of rhetoric and poetics. I argue that vv. 1–4 is Paul's introduction to his vivid representation of monotheism (vv. 5–22). As he presents his narrative of the wilderness events, he employs various rhetorical-poetic techniques to evoke in his hearers imaginative and emotional experiences that will transport them into a higher level of ethical consciousness, a new monotheistic reality in Christ.
The Consequences of Liberty: Barton W. Stone's Democratized Rhetoric and Hermeneutics
Authors: Overton Daniel P.
Published: August 2020

The Cane Ridge Revival drew nearly twenty thousand participants, sparking the transformative Second Great Awakening. Barton Stone was the minister who organized and shared preaching responsibilities for the revival, and eventually, his disciples formed one of the largest American religious traditions, the Stone-Campbell Movement. In this paper, I examine portions of nine fictional dialogues published by Stone during the final year of his life, wherein he explicitly outlined the parameters of effective rhetoric or “useful preaching.” I argue that Stone developed a rhetorical theory that rebelled against authority by granting agency to the audience even in the processes of invention and interpretation, a theory that produced idiosyncratic theological convictions and a movement practically incapable of confessional unity.

At present, there is still a lack of teaching materials in Elementary Schools, specifically science that is suitable to the needs of students and encourages students to care about their environment. The purpose of this study is to develop a Natural Sciences module with the STSE (Science, Technology, Society, Environment) approach to strengthen cognitive learning outcomes in Elementary Schools. The method used is the research development of the modified Borg and Gall model, namely preliminary studies, development stages, and evaluation stages. The research subjects were grade IV students, Public Elementary School Kangkung 1 Mranggen. Data collection instruments used were observation sheets, tests, questionnaires, and documentation. Analysis of research with t-test and n-gain test to determine the comparison of modules, as well as improvement of learning outcomes. The results of the study that the Natural Sciences module, with the STSE approach, is valid for use. The results of trials with the t-test show the difference between the use of modules and student books, N-gain module usage scores 0.723 with a very high category. The practicality test shows a practical module so that students and teachers can accept it. The Science Module STSE approach can be used as a substitute for teaching material on the theme of the environment around Grade IV Elementary School.

Creative Problem Solving (CPS) learning model supports students to focus on learning and skill processes. CPS learning, students could select, process, and develop their responses in solving a problem creatively. Metacognition plays an important role in CPS since it could monitor students in selecting and using strategy to improve further cognitive performance. This research aims to find out effectiveness of CPS learning model on mathematics creative thinking skill reviewed from students’ metacognitions. This mixed method research used sequential explanatory design. The population consisted of VIII graders at SMP N 4 Kudus. The samples consisted of experimental class with CPS learning and control class with discovery learning. The first stage of thr research was quantitative data collection. It were done using test and questionnaires to categorized the subject. The next stage was qualitative data collections which were done by using questionnaires and interview. Data of  quantitative data were triangulated with the qualitative data to gain the goal of the research. The findings showed that CPS model was effective to improve creative thinking skill reviewed from students’ metacognitions. Students with high metacognition in the experimental class are more creative than the control class. CPS learning can improve students' creative thinking through the stages of idea finding to acceptance finding, because students can find new ideas and choose the right solution from some of the ideas they have. Mathematics  creative thinking skill of the students with high metacognition shown form the students’ ability in writing problem solving skill of creative questions logically and could provide other notions. Students with medium category have the similar achievement but can correct errors; meanwhile students with low metacognition can wrote problem solving skill of creative questions quite logically and still have problems in giving ideas.
