Controlling the cascade of corona
Authors: Azmat Muneeba
Published: August 2020

The pandemic of the 2019 novel Coronavirus has seen unprecedented exponential growth. Within three months, 192 countries have been affected, crossing more than 1 million confirmed cases and over 60 thousand deaths until the first week of April. Decision making in such a pandemic becomes difficult due to limited data on the nature of the disease and its propagation, course, prevention, and treatment. The pandemic response has varied from country to country and has resulted in a heterogeneous timeline for novel Coronavirus propagation. We compared the public health measures taken by various countries and the potential impact on the spread. We studied 6 countries including China, Italy, South Korea, Singapore, United Kingdom(UK), United States(US), and the special administrative region of Hong Kong. All articles, press releases, and websites of government entities published over a five-month period were included. A comparison of the date of the first diagnosed case, the spread of disease, and time since the first case and major public health policy implemented for prevention and containment and current cases was done. An emphasis on early and aggressive border restriction and surveillance of travelers from infected areas, use of information technology, and social distancing is necessary for control of the novel pandemic. Moving forwards, improvement in infrastructure, and adequate preparedness for pandemics is required.
Suomalaisten naisopiskelijoiden luennan perustaajuuden muutos 1990-luvulta 2010-luvulle
Authors: Laukkanen Anne-Maria , Waaramaa Teija
Published: August 2020

Puhekorkeus on sekä yksilöllinen ja tilannekohtainen että myös sosiaalinen muuttuja. Eri maissa on viimeisen sadan vuoden aikana raportoitu naisten puhekorkeuden laskua. Puhekorkeuden muutoksen oletetaan heijastelevan yhteiskunnallisia muutoksia. Keskimääräistä puhekorkeutta mitataan usein perustaajuuden keskiarvolla ja mediaanilla. Tässä tutkimuksessa tarkastellaan suomalaisten yliopistossa opiskelevien naisten perustaajuuden (fo) keskiarvoa ja mediaania 160-sanaisessa, noin minuutin mittaisessa neutraalissa tekstiluennassa, joka on äänitetty 1990- ja 2010-luvuilla. Tutkimuksen aineisto on peräisin Tampereen yliopiston Puheen ja äänen tutkimuksen laboratorion äänitearkistosta. Tutkimukseen valittiin satunnaisesti 136 (N) 20–25-vuotiasta naista, joilla ei ollut tiedossa ääntöelimistön tai kuulon sairauksia, ja joiden ääni oli kuulonvaraisesti arvioituna normaali. Näytteet oli taltioitu vaimennetussa äänitysstudiossa digitaalisesti mittamikrofonia käyttäen, ja ne analysoitiin Praat-ohjelmalla. Perustaajuuden keskiarvo näyttää nousseen aiemmasta 195,7 Hz:stä 210,6 Hz:iin ja mediaani 190,9 Hz:stä 203,2 Hz:iin. Muutokset ovat tilastollisesti merkitseviä (Studentin t-testi, p = < 0,001 molemmissa). Vieraiden kielten ja globaalin viihdekulttuurin vaikutus voinee osaltaan selittää muutosta.

La inmigración como un viaje emocional. Una reflexión a partir del caso de la Argentina entre fines del siglo XIX y al Segunda Posguerra
Authors: Bjerg María
Published: August 2020

Este trabajo recorre parte de la historiografía argentina de la inmigración para reflexionar sobre una posible lectura del fenómeno que impactó al país y cambió su anatomía entre fines del siglo XIX y los años 1950, a partir del aporte conceptual de la historia de las emociones. Aunque las emociones están implícitas en la interpretación del grueso de los estudios que abordan desde múltiples ángulos el problema inmigratorio, no han sido utilizadas como una categoría de análisis. Transitar por ese camino de indagación contribuiría a complejizar el cuadro de la experiencia migratoria a nivel individual/familiar y a develar las prescripciones que regulaban la expresión y las prácticas emocionales de los actores que convergieron en aquel singular escenario: los inmigrantes, las clases dirigentes y los argentinos.
Los consultorios emocionales: notas para un análisis de la educación sentimental en México en las primeras décadas del siglo XX
Authors: López Sánchez Oliva
Published: August 2020

El artículo analiza la función social de los consultorios emocionales en el México de principios de siglo XX. Estos espacios públicos a cargo de “expertos” atendieron las tribulaciones de la vida emocional conformando una educación sentimental diferenciada por sexo. El consejo experto contribuyó al cultivo de las relaciones afectivas con énfasis en las parejas. A partir del enfoque sociocultural de las emociones, los consultorios amorosos permiten conocer el ethos terapéutico y los valores ético-morales, de acuerdo con los roles de género e identidades sociales, que requirieron de una emocionalidad diferenciada de sectores medios e intermedios en el México prerevolucionario.

La emoción místico-patriótica de derechas e izquierdas revolucionarias. Memorias y discursos de Juan Francisco Guevara y Raimundo Ongaro, 1970
Authors: Bartolucci Mónica Inés
Published: August 2020

A través del análisis de los textos producidos por el teniente coronel Juan Francisco Guevara ─militar nacionalista católico, experimentado conspirador, antiperonista, filiado con la derecha argentina─ y de Raimundo Ongaro ─sindicalista gráfico, católico nacionalista y alistado en el peronismo revolucionario de izquierda─, analizamos una serie de emotives como dolor, sangre, lucha, combate y liberación. Estas dos figuras, aun desde las antípodas ideológicas, formaron un “código comunicativo”. La noción de entrega vital, el compromiso con una causa, las estrategias de clandestinidad para acceder al poder, la apelación a la sangre, el sacrificio y el homenaje a los mártires, y la lucha en defensa de la patria, formaron parte de un clima emocional nacionalista y católico en la Argentina de los años setenta.

Parents View On In-Home Occupational Therapy Service
Authors: Osipova Lilia
Published: August 2020

Home is a significant environment for any child with or without special needs and one of the important environments where occupational therapy is aimed to bring improvement if necessary in terms of quality of life. The current descriptive qualitative study was designed to find out parental perceptions about occupational therapies provided in their own environments with their children with special needs.
The participants of the study were five parents whose children with different special needs were getting private in-house occupational therapy services provided by the researcher at the moment of the study. The data for this study was collected through semi-structured interviews. Interviews were designed to understand how parents perceive in-house Occupational Therapy Services.   
The findings of the study suggest significant improvements in the quality of life of their children with special needs, thus no one could specifically differ occupational therapy interventions in-home and in other professional settings. It is obvious because of the lack of settings in Armenia with Occupational Therapies and lack of information about the profession in general. Future research is recommended to be conducted between two different groups with Occupational Therapies in-home and other settings, with a larger group and more specific issues. Findings revealed that in-home services are convenient in many different aspects for parents of children with special needs and it should be considered for future practices.

Metaphorical change of Hebrew words and phrases in light of social norms: A linguistic analysis
Authors: Manor Rama , Gvura Avi
Published: August 2020

The article describes a shift in meaning of two verbs of motion, yatsa (“come out”) and hotsi (“take out”), in set phrases in contemporary spoken and written Hebrew. The shift is metaphorical, from physical motion signifying a move from one place to another to a change in social conduct and in emotional and/or mental state. The examples are taken from modern Hebrew dictionaries and Israeli news websites. We first present the original meanings of the two verbs, which belong to the family of concrete verbs of motion. This is followed by a presentation of the shift from physical to metaphorical motion indicative of a change in social conduct, then of the shift indicative of a change in emotional state. The new meanings reflect social and media developments in the Israeli ethos and testify to the vitality and dynamism of contemporary Hebrew. Speakers experience new semantic needs in the wake of social changes, and these require expression at the linguistic level. Changes in social conduct and in emotional and mental states such as those presented in the set phrases are characteristic of new communicative interactions in Israeli society. Furthermore, the variety of new meanings testify to a certain violation of the normative social order in Israeli society. These new meanings have become a dominant element in the everyday media discourse in Israel.
In search of “the Holy Grail of permanent price stability”: How the Bank of England communicates trust via story and argument
Authors: Harris Laurence
Published: August 2020

This research paper examines the communication strategies adopted by the Bank of England to create trust in financial markets using narrative and argument. The corpus under scrutiny consists of 71 speeches delivered by Governors of the UK Central Bank – the Bank of England – at the Mansion House in the City of London, from 1946, when the Bank was nationalised, to 2016, shortly before the Brexit referendum. The question of how story and argument are used to create trust is analysed using three narrative threads deployed by successive Governors of the Bank of England in the annual Mansion House speech: the myth surrounding the City, the travails of Britain inside and outside of Europe and the “story of monetary policy”. This research, which lays bare the discursive techniques underpinning institutional trust, aims to provide an insight into the symbolic power of language and modes of authority and legitimation.
Corporate dreams – Appropriate aspirations and the building of trust in annual reports
Authors: Rahm Henrik , Sandell Niklas , Svensson Peter
Published: August 2020

This paper argues that the corporate annual report is not only a document comprising retrospective accounts of financial position and performance, but also a text that points to the future by means of presenting dreams, aspirations and fantasies. However, these dreams are not to be seen as irrational deviations from the rationalistically oriented discourse of accounting. Quite to the contrary, the three corporate dreams identified in this study – the colonial dream, the evolutionary dream and the efficiency dream – are part of the ongoing self-narration of the company, in which it tries to display an allegiance to a set of appropriate aspirations that are considered legitimate in contemporary global capitalism. Drawing upon ideas from narrative theory, annual reports from 2005 to 2010 collected from NASDAQ OMX Stockholm have been analyzed with the purpose of understanding how corporate dreams are used in financial communication. These corporate dreams contribute, the paper argues, to the construction of legitimacy and trust.

Authors: GÜNAY İSMAİLOĞLU Elif , ÖZDEMİR Handan
Published: August 2020

Abstract
The study was conducted to determine the compliance of nursing students with first clinical experience with their care roles. The research was conducted on 190 students who gained their first clinical experience in a nursing faculty (in İzmir, Turkey). A demographic questionnaire and Nursing Care Role Orientation Scale were used for data collection. It was found that the mean age of the students was 20.74 ± .98, 75.3% were female, 62.1% preferred the nursing profession, 84.7% considered caring as the main duty of the nurse, and 72.6% had the experience of caregiving. The mean score of Nursing Care Role Orientation Scale was 80.92 ± 8.13 (66-105), “collaboration”, “research”, “nurse-patient interaction” and “autonomy” factor mean scores were 27.78±4.68(16-40), 24.94±2.82(20-33), 18.3±3.13(12-25) and 9.88±1.93(5-15) respectively. It is seen that the student nurses with first clinical experience have high compliance with their care roles. The students who stated that caregiving was the duty of the nurse had higher compliance with their general care roles and that the students who had the experience of providing care for someone had higher compliance with their collaboration and interaction care roles.

CIE TN 009:2019 The Use of ?Accuracy? and Related Terms in the Specifications of Testing and Measurement Equipment
Authors:   CIE DR 2-75
Published: August 2020

Many measurement instruments have technical specifications and datasheets that say, for example, ?Accuracy: 4 %?. This is an inappropriate use of the term ?accuracy? because an ?accuracy? is not a quantity and cannot be assigned a value. This document describes how to use the term ?accuracy? correctly, as well as giving examples of acceptable expressions that could be used in place of the incorrect expression used in the example here. Furthermore, some other commonly misused terms are discussed, and examples of correct use are given.-\n--\n-The document provides guidance on the correct use of the terms accuracy , error , tolerance , reproducibility , and repeatability in relation to the properties and specifications of testing and measurement instruments on the one hand, and the terms error and uncertainty , and a measurement instrument?s sensitivity in relation to a measurement process or a calibration on the other hand. It also summarizes the concepts of quality indices and tolerance intervals and provides guidance for acceptable methods of specifying the performance of equipment and for expressing specifications for the requirements of equipment to be used for a specific purpose. This will be of assistance to equipment manufacturers in producing brochures, manuals, and datasheets as well as tender specification writers in producing technical specifications for procurement of equipment that use the above terms correctly. Keywords: photometry, radiometry, measurement uncertainty, accuracy, error, tolerance, reproducibility, repeatability
Cognitive grammar on "smash": Perspectives from Langacker's framework

Published: August 2020

The language system allows us to express perceived events in different ways using different linguistic resources. Ability to perform this task goes beyond the notion of prescriptive grammar, which makes no connection between language and the cognitive mind. Cognitive grammar focuses on the way we construct our ideas. Meaning is equated with conceptualization. Semantic structures are characterized Based on the ideas and theses posited by Langacker with regards to Cognitive Grammar, we seek to illustrate how our cognitive minds help us manipulate the use of language, especially the grammatical items.

No presente texto, resenhamos a palestra ministrada por Ana Elisa Ribeiro, intitulada Educação e tecnologias digitais: ciclos de precariedade diante da pandemia, que ocorreu em 25 de junho de 2020, como parte das atividades do evento Abralin ao Vivo – linguists online. Em sua fala, a referida pesquisadora denuncia e problematiza aspectos imbricados nos ciclos de precariedade com os quais muitos professores de línguas – familiarizados ou não com o ensino online – já lidavam antes e seguem lidando de forma mais perceptível agora: infraestrutura precária, sinal de internet de baixa qualidade, falta de formação docente e capacitação específica para tal trabalho (sopesando o ineditismo da situação de pandemia), etc. A partir desse olhar sobre o presente, Ribeiro nos possibilita pensar muitas questões para o futuro do ensino de línguas mediado por computador e/ou tecnologias digitais.
Ergonomics of surgical microscopes for the sitting position as determined by ocular-corpus length
Authors: Goehre Felix , Ludtka Christopher , Schwan Stefan
Published: August 2020

Background:

The sitting position is favorable for microsurgical procedures applied to posterior midline pathologies in both the supra- and infratentorial regions. The dimensions of the microscope corpus affect the device’s comfort and handling in the hands of the microneurosurgeon for such procedures. A shorter microscope corpus provides more favorable intraoperative ergonomics for surgical practice.

Methods:

Evaluation of the most comfortable microscope for its application in microsurgical procedures in the sitting position as determined by ocular-corpus length.

Results:

Six modern surgical microscopes were tested and evaluated regarding their ocular-corpus lengths and working distances: the Mitaka MM90, Zeiss Kinevo 900, Zeiss Pentero 900, Leica M530, Zeiss Neuro NC4, and Möller-Wedel Hi-R 1000. The ocular-corpus lengths vary between 270 and 380 mm. The Mitaka MM90 microscope has the shortest ocular-corpus length at 270 mm.

Conclusion:

The ocular-corpus length determines the predominant part of the lever arm, which affects the fatigue of the surgeon. By virtue of its short ocular-corpus length, the Mitaka MM90 is currently the most favorable microscope for microsurgical procedures using a sitting position.
Calcifying pseudoneoplasm of the neuraxis: A rare case involving the oculomotor nerve
Authors: Huang Jiahua , Ghent Finn , Rodriguez Michael , Davies Mark
Published: August 2020

Background:

Calcifying pseudoneoplasm of the neuraxis (CAPNON) is a rare entity which can occur at intracranial and spinal locations. Clinical presentation is due to local mass effect rather than tissue infiltration. Lesions causing significant symptoms or are showing radiological progression require surgical resection. Maximal surgical resection is considered curative for this non-neoplastic entity with only two cases of recurrence reported in the literature. Cranial nerve involvement is extremely rare and the presenting neurological deficit is unlikely to improve even with surgical intervention.

Case Description:

We describe a case of CAPNON at the right posterior clinoid process with involvement of the right oculomotor nerve in a 38-year-old male. Computed tomography demonstrated an amorphous mass which had intermediate to low T1 and T2 signal on magnetic resonance imaging. The oculomotor nerve was compressed with sign of atrophy. The patient underwent maximal surgical debulking for progressive symptoms of worsening pain and ophthalmoplegia. Postoperatively, the patient’s symptoms were stable but did not improve.

Conclusion:

Preoperative diagnosis of CAPNON is difficult due to its rarity and nonspecific clinical and radiological findings. Surgical resection is considered in cases with worsening symptoms, progression on serial imaging, or uncertain diagnosis. Relatively inaccessible lesions with little or no clinical symptoms can be observed.

Published: August 2020

The coronavirus disease (COVID-19) outbreak was initially reported in Wuhan, China in December 2019. Many cases of pneumonia without any apparent cause were described to be associated with seafood and wet markets in Wuhan. At present, there are no effective antiviral drugs to treat COVID-19. Umifenovir is a broad-spectrum antiviral drug used for treating several viral infections, and it reportedly inhibits SARS-CoV replication in vitro. This exploratory randomized and controlled study recruited 30 COVID-19 patients admitted to the hospital until May 18, 2020. Fifteen (15) eligible patients randomly allocated underwent umifenovir therapy (600 mg/d). Time to clinical recovery (TTCR), clinical characteristics, and tomographic results were analyzed at baseline and five days after treatment to assess the effect of umifenovir. Thirty (30) COVID-19 patients (mean age: 36.5 years [SD: 12.1, range: 19-59]), including 18 (60%) males and 12 (40%) females, were recruited for the study. There were no significant differences in age or gender, but there were significant differences in TTCR among the two categories. Body temperature (BT) and cough recuperation time [2.8 (0.6) and 2.6 (0.6) days, respectively] were highly reduced in the umifenovir category at 2.4 and 2.1 days, respectively. Moreover, many patients treated with umifenovir exhibited no side effects. In this study, pneumonia was ameliorated in 76.6% (23/30) of the patients, with moderate and potential amelioration in 36.6% and 40% of the patients, respectively. In addition, 66.6% of the patients in the umifenovir category had potential pneumonia absorption.
Welding supports of fine-grained steel mobile platforms
Authors: Silva Abilio , Szczucka-Lasota Bożena , Węgrzyn Tomasz , Jurek Adam
Published: August 2020

The article presents the process of welding of steel movable platform supports. There is a growing demand for the welding of difficult-to-weld fine grain steels used in civil engineering and transport. An example of this could be the use of high-strength movable platform supports. The recently used material in the production of movable platform supports are fine-grained steels due to their high tensile strength of 1000 MPa. The joints formed using them, however, are characterized by much lower strength than the native material. In this article, the most appropriate parameters were selected for welding the movable platform supports made of difficult-to-weld fine-grained steel S960 MC.
From Virtue to Power: Explorations in Female Heroism – The Mosaics of Lilian Broca
Authors: CLARKE Angela
Published: August 2020

This article examines the mosaics of the contemporary artist Lilian Broca. Broca has completed two monumental mosaic series, with another underway, on the biblical figures of: Esther, Judith, and Mary Magdelene. Through mosaic Broca explores women and their relationship to power in the ancient world. Broca notes that throughout ancient history the worth of women has been evaluated through the lense of beauty and chastity. Broca researched ancient text extensively to uncover examples of women who were atypical of this paradigm: women who spoke truth to power and transgressed the accepted boundaries. Her work illuminates the manner in which these women navigated, and even exploited the loopholes in ancient society, enabling them to exert their influence on the masculine domains of power.Broca utilizes the medium of mosaic, since traditionally, it was a medium patronized by the most wealthy and privileged of ancient society. They were the sector of society who determined which stories would be most broadly disseminated and ultimately survive. Broca’s work is postmodern employing both the concepts of temporality and axiology. For Broca, time and history are fluid. By utilizing the predominately masculine medium of mosaic to tell feminst stories she strives to resolve history’s sins of omissions and the general absence of the female perspective in ancient history.Finally, Broca notes that the media and placement of ancient monumental art has done much to elevate the stories of male heros above women. In this regard, she reflects Paul Veyne’s concept of axiology, a term which enables social historians to evaluate the fluctuating value of social trends and historic objects. Broca suggests that by inserting a female narrative into ancient monumental art forms such as mosaic the stories of ancient women will finally be accorded with the same dignity and respect as their male counter parts.

Authors: Best Madison A. , Wilkes Rachel A. , Zingone Nicholas M.R. , Farag Hesham

Preeclampsia is a common pregnancy complication that leaves the affected individual to choose between preterm delivery or risking death. These outcomes are far from ideal and the search for a better treatment is underway. Previous studies have implicated whole flower commercial cannabis use as a risk factor for the development of preeclampsia as well as other partum complications. However, commercial cannabis is high in Δ9-Tetrahydrocannabinol and other psychoactive cannabinoids and low in cannabidiol. Therefore, it is imperative that the use of isolated CBD as a potential therapy is investigated. In this study novel mouse models of preeclampsia will be utilized to demonstrate the effect of cannabidiol on expecting mothers who are predisposed to preeclampsia. This will be demonstrated using B6D2F1 mice with placenta specific human transgene hsFLT1 to simulate preeclampsia. Cannabidiol will be introduced at different stages of gestation and symptoms of preeclampsia will be measured through blood pressure, protein urine content, and fetal mortality rate. The group with mice receiving cannabidiol prior to implantation are anticipated to show the lowest incidences of preeclampsia symptoms. With so many studies suggesting cannabidiol as a treatment method for a variety of the most dangerous symptoms of preeclampsia, it may be possible that cannabis will allow future mothers afflicted with Preeclampsia to bring their child to full-term.

External providers and their impact on Primary Physical Education in Aotearoa/New Zealand.
Authors: Dyson B , Gordon Barrie , Cowan J , McKenzie A
Published: August 2020

© 2016 Australian Council for Health, Physical Education and Recreation. Within Aotearoa/New Zealand primary schools, External Providers (EPs) have steadily increased their influence on physical education. The purpose of this study was to explore and interpret classroom teachers’ perspectives of EPs in their primary school. The research team obtained questionnaire responses from 487 classroom teachers from 133 different primary and intermediate schools in six regions across Aotearoa/New Zealand. In addition, 33 classroom teachers, selected from the six regions as a purposive sample [Patton, M. Q. (2002). Qualitative evaluation and research methods (3rd ed.). Newbury, CA: Sage], were interviewed. The research utilised a case-study design [Stake, R. E. (2005). Qualitative case studies. In N. Denzin & Y. Lincoln (Eds.), The sage handbook of qualitative research (3rd ed.). Thousand Oaks, CA: Sage] and incorporated a mixed-methods approach [Greene, J. C. (2007). Mixed methods in social inquiry. San Francisco, CA: Jossey-Bass]. Our findings support the belief that EPs are established as major providers of physical education and sport in the primary schools space. Teachers identified a large number of EPs (n = 638) active in their schools. A number of categories were drawn from the interviews: Prevalence of EPs, Expertise and professional development (PD), Valued programs, Evaluation and assessment of EP provided programs and Pedagogical limitations. The teachers valued the EPs for their expertise, PD and the opportunities for students to experience a wide range of sports. However, schools conducted little assessment or evaluation of the programs. Teachers expressed some criticisms around the pedagogical approaches used and the EPs’ lack of knowledge of the curriculum. As a profession it is our responsibility to ensure that all students experience quality physical education programs and that EPs are working in ways that maximise the benefits for our students.

Teaching personal and social responsibility and transfer of learning: Opportunities and challenges for teachers and coaches
Authors: Gordon Barrie , Doyle Mary
Published: August 2020

© 2015 Human Kinetics, Inc. The transfer of learning from the gym to other areas of participants' lives has always been a core component of the Teaching Personal and Social Responsibility Model. The degree to which transfer of learning is successfully facilitated in the reality of Teaching Personal and Social Responsibility Model-based teaching and coaching is, however, uncertain. The research findings are mixed both in the commitment to transfer of learning and the level of success that has been achieved. The interest in transfer of learning is not restricted to the area of the Teaching Personal and Social Responsibility Model or physical education and sport in general, but is an area of strong academic interest with a long history of research and debate. This article draws on the knowledge and understandings of transfer of learning from this wider literature to explore ways in which to help facilitate transfer of learning for practitioners of the Teaching Personal and Social Responsibility Model.
DO POEMA AO PINCEL: DIÁLOGOS SEMIÓTICOS PELA ENUNCIAÇÃO VERBAL E VISUAL EM DRUMMOND E PORTINARI
Authors: Scaliante Daniele Cristina , Schwartzmann Matheus Nogueira
Published: August 2020

Este artigo tem como objetivo propor um diálogo – semiótico – entre dois textos: A noite dissolve os homens, de Carlos Drummond de Andrade, um texto verbal, e os painéis Guerra e Paz, de Cândido Portinari, um texto visual. Para isso, partimos do suporte teórico da teoria semiótica greimasiana para tratar da complexidade do conceito de enunciação, relacionando-o aos desdobramentos mais recentes, a fim de apontar os procedimentos da organização textual pelos quais se organizam essas duas instâncias enunciativas distintas. Em nossa proposta de análise, pretendemos verificar de que modo esses enunciados dialogam a partir da constituição da intertexualidade temática neles instaurada.
REFLEXÕES SOBRE A RETÓRICA PEDAGÓGICA: as partes do discurso no ensino da escrita acadêmica
Authors: Figueiredo Maria Flávia , Santos Junior Valmir Ferreira dos
Published: August 2020

Retórica, disciplina sistematizada na antiguidade clássica, por Aristóteles, tem por fim analisar, por meio do discurso, os meios cabíveis para se chegar à persuasão em cada caso. Tal área, que tem sido matéria de reflexão desde os primórdios da humanidade, possui caráter duplo. Assim, é possível considerar a Retórica como intermediadora de dois campos de atuação: o primeiro, de caráter teórico, voltado para a análise e interpretação de discursos, é empregado na atualidade pelos teóricos e analistas do discurso para ponderar acerca da eficácia, ou não, de determinada estratégia persuasiva componente de um discurso; e o segundo, pertencente à seara prática, voltado para a redação e composição de atos retóricos, é utilizado para guiar retores e oradores em sua prática oratória e persuasiva em âmbito discursivo. O foco deste trabalho repousa sobre a esfera prática, pedagógica, dessa arte. Por meio dos ensinamentos de teóricos e filósofos da antiguidade, o fito da discussão teórica aqui apresentada é auxiliar na atividade de escrita acadêmica, por meio do conceito retórico de partes do discurso, que auxilia na objetividade, clareza e economia de um discurso. Tomaremos, assim, o texto do meio acadêmico como discurso retórico, uma vez que seu intuito é apresentar uma tese a um auditório e fazer com que ela seja aceita. Por fim, este estudo apresentará uma sugestão de composição de um discurso retórico em âmbito científico.
Analisis Ketepatan Pengukur Tegangan True RMS Jala-Jala Listrik Berbasis Mikrokontroler ATmega 328P

The analog AC-voltmeter usually can only measure the ideal-sinusoid voltage with narrow frequency range. Meanwhile, in fact the grid voltage is often not in the form of an ideal sinusoidal.  To be able to measure a non-sinusoidal AC voltage with a wide range of frequency, a true-RMS voltmeter is needed. The research designed a true RMS measuring system using an ATmega 328P microcontroller. The input voltage is converted to pulse using Schmit triger and fed to the microcontroller’s external interrupt pin to calculate the input signal frequency. Meanwhile the microcontroller’s ADC sampled the input signal with a frequency of 128 times the signal’s frequency. RMS voltage calculations are performed using arithmetic operations for 16 and 32 bit integer variables. The test results show that the system can measure voltages with zero errors from 100 to 275 volts with a frequency of 50 Hz. The system can also measure voltages with zero errors at 220 volt with frequencies from 40 Hz to 150 Hz. However, this system can still be used to measure voltages ranging from 25 volts to 300 volts at frequencies from 35 Hz to 195 Hz with an average error of 0.21%. During RMS voltage calculation, the microcontroller’s CPU usage was 13.35%, so that this system can be further developed.
La masculinidad como máscara: clase, género y sexualidad en las masculinidades adolescentes
Authors: Venegas Mar
Published: August 2020

El estudio de las masculinidades ocupa un lugar destacado en los estudios feministas y de género actualmente. Este artículo presenta un análisis basado en entrevistas personales en profundidad, procedentes de tres estudios de caso en educación secundaria obligatoria, con el objetivo de analizar las masculinidades adolescentes (12-18 años) en una ciudad del sur de España y su representación de la sexualidad, entendida como "máscara" que se construye a través de los procesos de socialización y subjetivación de género, para identificar las marcas de clase y género que definen esos procesos. Los resultados revelan un conflicto entre la norma social dominante sobre sexualidad, internalizada a través de la socialización de género, y la resistencia a esa norma, que activa la subjetivación de género. La resolución de ese conflicto describe el proceso de construcción de la máscara que es la masculinidad adolescente, en donde están presentes también las marcas de clase.
