Authors: Caldara Betina , Sanchez Correa Cecilia Mariel , Heberling Tamara , Canale Delfina
Published: July 2023

Objetivo: Clasificar los síntomas autopercibidos en leves, moderados o graves y describir el dominio más afectado del Dizziness Handicap Inventory (DHI) según sexo, tipo de desorden vestibular y edad al inicio de un programa de rehabilitación vestibular (RV).

Materiales y método: Estudio observacional, descriptivo, transversal y retrospectivo. Se incluyeron sujetos mayores de 18 años con déficits vestibulares que concurrieron a la entrevista inicial de un programa de RV en un consultorio de kinesiología de la Ciudad Autónoma de Buenos Aires entre 2011 y 2021. Las variables se agruparon en primarias (autopercepción de discapacidad) y secundarias (sexo, tipo de desorden vestibular y edad).

Resultados: Se incluyeron 527 sujetos. El 45% de los sujetos presentaron sintomatología leve; el 38%, moderada y el 16%, grave. Los sujetos más jóvenes refirieron sintomatología moderada, mientras que en el resto de los grupos refirieron sintomatología leve. Las mujeres presentaron mayor autopercepción de síntomas. Los sujetos con síndromes vestibulares periféricos obtuvieron puntajes menores en el DHI.

Conclusión: Los síntomas autopercibidos fueron de moderados a graves en el 54% de los sujetos, y los dominios más afectados fueron el físico y funcional. Esta información resulta relevante, ya que nos permite plantear objetivos claros tendientes a disminuir los síntomas y la discapacidad consecuente, y así mejorar la calidad de vida en sujetos con déficits vestibulares.

A MULTIDISCIPLINARY ASSESSMENT OF CYBER CAPITALISM AS A NEW MODE OF PRODUCTION
Authors: EFE Ahmet
Published: July 2023

This study investigates the theme that Cyber capitalism has an accelerating effect on the genetic relationship between capitalism and crisis and its possible impacts on developing economies at the intersection of innovative technology, digital culture, and neoliberal paradigms. Due to cutting-edge digital transformations, IoT electronic devices, the internet, mobile phones, etc., can always be kept in an accessible, visual, and controllable medium altogether to consumers, employees, and people. On the other hand, cyber-capitalism substitutes the market's priorities for society's priorities, trust, accuracy, stability, etc., that keep the community together and hold religious and moral values. As a result, being open to continuous change, inability to adapt to new situations, insecurity, and anxiety negatively affect established moral values and principles. It is argued that cyber-capitalism, with its premises of industry 4.0 on the one hand, replaces new production relation networks in flexible production environments with technological possibilities of artificial intelligence (AI) and mixed virtual reality (VR).

Authors: Ndilu Arlando Pila
Published: July 2023

This study aims to determine the effect of bokashi fertilizer on the feces of Sumba Ongole cattle on the nutritional value of the Indigofera Zollingeriana legume. This study used a completely randomized design (CRD) with 5 treatments and 4 replications namely; P0: without the application of bokashi manure of Sumba Ongole cattle, P1: bokashi fertilizer of 200 grams/planting hole, P2: bokashi fertilizer of 500 grams/planting hole of Sumbanese Ongole cattle feces, P2: 800 gram/planting hole of Sumbanese Ongole cattle faeces bokashi fertilizer planting hole, P4: 1000 grams of bokashi fertilizer from the faeces of Sumba Ongole cattle/planting hole. The variables measured were crude protein and crude fiber. The results showed that the treatment had a significant effect (P<0.05) on crude protein and crude fiber. The conclusion of the application of bokashi fertilizer on the faeces of Sumba Ongole cattle at a level of 200 g/planting hole produces crude protein content and the higher the level of fertilizer application, the lower the crude fiber content.

The role of vowel length and pitch in Xhosa sentence type intonation
Authors: Bloom Ström Eva-Marie
Published: July 2023

This paper is a first study of intonation across different sentence types in Xhosa. A recent increase in intonation research of African languages, including Bantu, has shown that intonation involves the manipulation of several distinct prosodic features such as vowel length and voice, next to pitch (Downing and Rialland 2017a). Xhosa is a tonal language as many other African languages, meaning that the use of pitch for intonational purposes interacts with the use of lexical and grammatical tone. Moreover, other means are employed than pitch rise to distinguish different intonational phrases. For example, previous research shows that polar questions in Xhosa are indicated by reducing the lengthening of the penultimate vowel of a phrase, which is long in declaratives (Jones 2001). This paper expands on such previous studies and includes the intonation of different kinds of questions and focus constructions in order to sketch a more complete picture of Xhosa intonation. It shows that the manipulation of penultimate lengthening plays an important role in distinguishing different phrases, in combination with declination and final lowering of pitch. Also, devoicing the last vowel to a whisper indicates end of the intonation phrase. Understanding the interaction of tone, intonation and phonological phrasing is important for understanding the grammatical structure and discourse pragmatics of Bantu languages.
Perceptions of educational interpreting at SU: Towards a more informed and supportive interpreting service
Authors: Brewis Carmen , Lotter Risha , De Kock Eduard , De Jager Sanet , Botha Tania , Wheeler Rene , Van den Berg Nanette
Published: July 2023

This article reports on a study conducted in October 2019 by the interpreters in the research portfolio of Stellenbosch University’s interpreting service. The study tested student perceptions of interpreting in authentic interpreted lectures amongst two subsets of users: those listening to interpreting in English, mostly out of necessity, and those who listen to interpreted lectures in Afrikaans, largely by choice.[1] The research project was undertaken to gain a better understanding of the value that student users take from the service, and how it helps or hinders their learning. Interpreters wanted to gain insight into their users’ evolving needs and into the role that they themselves can play in addressing these. The article concludes by recommending practical measures to support students who feel lost and helpless due to a language deficit in the language of instruction. The outcome of the investigation shows the value of interpreting for some, but also the complications and frustration experienced by users in interpreted lectures. It highlights the necessity of thinking differently about our practices and about how these may be adapted in order to meet our users’ needs. Significantly, the results suggest the need for an expanded and more active role for interpreters in and outside the classroom. It also calls for closer collaboration between interpreters, their users and lecturers, which is necessary to negotiate and formalise the terms of a shared learning space. If interpreters are to facilitate meaning-making and understanding for their users in an increasingly remote online application, then innovative measures and in-depth planning will be needed to determine how to achieve this. Through these measures, what is currently a mainly theoretical objective can be converted into the reality of multilingual teaching and learning practices at South African universities. [1] This phenomenon is supported by the data and is discussed in par. 4.1.
Trichorhinophalangeal Syndrome Type 1 Is a Highly Sensitive and Specific Marker for Diagnosing Triple-Negative Breast Carcinomas on Cytologic Samples
Authors: Lynn Terrance J. , Shi Jianhui , Liu Haiyan , Monaco Sara E. , Prichard Jeffrey W. , Lin Fan
Published: July 2023

Context.—

Definitive diagnosis of metastatic triple-negative breast carcinoma (TNBC) is challenging on cytologic samples. Recent studies demonstrated that trichorhinophalangeal syndrome type 1 (TRPS1) is a highly sensitive and specific marker for diagnosing breast carcinomas, including TNBC, on surgical specimens.

Objective.—

To evaluate TRPS1 expression in TNBCs on cytologic samples and a large series of nonbreast tumors on tissue microarray sections.

Design.—

Immunohistochemical (IHC) analysis of TRPS1 and GATA-binding protein 3 (GATA3) was performed on 35 TNBC cases on surgical specimens, and 29 consecutive TNBC cases on cytologic specimens. IHC analysis of TRPS1 expression was also performed on 1079 nonbreast tumors on tissue microarray sections.

Results.—

Of the surgical specimens, 35 of 35 TNBC cases (100%) were positive for TRPS1, all with diffuse positivity, whereas 27 of 35 (77%) were positive for GATA3, with diffuse positivity in 7 cases (26%). Of the cytologic samples, 27 of 29 TNBC cases (93%) were positive for TRPS1, with diffuse positivity in 20 cases (74%), whereas 12 of 29 (41%) were positive for GATA3, with diffuse positivity in 2 cases (17%). Of the nonbreast malignant tumors, TRPS1 expression was seen in 9.4% (3 of 32) of melanomas, 10.7% (3 of 28) of small cell carcinomas of the bladder, and 9.7% (4 of 41) of ovarian serous carcinomas.

Conclusions.—

Our data confirm that TRPS1 is a highly sensitive and specific marker for diagnosing TNBC cases on surgical specimens as reported in the literature. In addition, these data demonstrate that TRPS1 is a much more sensitive marker than GATA3 in detecting metastatic TNBC cases on cytologic samples. Therefore, inclusion of TRPS1 in the diagnostic IHC panel is recommended when a metastatic TNBC is suspected.
Poetic Harmony In Arif Abdul Mateen’s Naa’atya Poetry
Authors: Shahbaz Anjum  , Dr. Arshad Mehmood Nashad
Published: July 2023

Naa’at is a form of religious poetry that is recited in praise of the Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him). The word “Naa’at " is derived from the Arabic word "nath," which means "praise. “The content of Naa’ats usually includes descriptions of the Prophet Muhammad's character (seerat), his life, and his teachings. Naa’at can also be used to express the devotion and love that Muslims feel towards the Prophet Muhammad. Arif Abdul Mateen wrote in all forms of poetry and prose but his Naa’at genera have special mental thought process and evolution as a journey from communist thoughts to prospects of religion. He in his Naa’atia poetry, basically initiated a heart touching dialogue with Prophet Muhammad (PBUH) and expected solutions of modern day humanitarian problems from the greatest Reformer and top rank HUMANBEING so he made it a social dialogue rather than mere praise and verbosity. In expression of Naa’at arif’s main focus remained on the philosophical view of developmental, peaceful, progressive and balanced human society as per core Islamic values. His style (Usloob) is having visual and sensory effects embedded with creative, decorated, symbolistic, impressive and articulated treasure of words flavoured with historical imagery. He created Naa’at on the modern poetic norms, which can be seen in each couplet soaked with powerful syntax and images.
ICT and academic transformation in universities
Authors: Cardeño Portela Noralbis , Cardeño Portela Edwin José , Bonilla Blanchar Edgar
Published: July 2023

The Covid-19 pandemic transformed the way people interact, necessitating the global adoption of Information and Communication Technologies (ICT) as both established and emerging resources. Although the University of La Guajira had been integrating face-to-face and virtual modalities, resistance was identified among the teaching staff. This research aimed to clarify the role of teachers in the use of these technologies within teaching and learning processes, employing a quantitative, descriptive approach and a non-experimental field design. The study population consisted of 1,062 students, and the sample included 282 students. Data collection was conducted via a Likert scale questionnaire, which obtained a reliability of 0.859 through Cronbach's Alpha. The study concluded that teachers demonstrate command of technology, utilize basic support equipment, and provide procedural support through explanations, collaboration, guidance, and motivation to enhance performance in accordance with the individual needs of each student.
Middle to late Tertiary geology of the Cedar Hills-Selden Hills area, Dona Ana County, New Mexico
Authors: Seager William R. , Clemons Russell E.
Published: July 2023

Rocks in the Cedar Hills and Selden Hills provide an excellent record of 1) Oligocene volcanism in the Cedar Hills vent zone, 2) the timing of initial rifting in the Rio Grande rift, and 3) the Miocene-Pliocene evolution of the rift. Volcanic activity in the Cedar Hills vent zone about 35 m.y. ago was concentrated along a northtrending zone at least 20 miles long and as much as 4 miles wide. Initial rhyolitic tephra eruptions were closely followed by emplacement of an ash-flow tuff sheet from fissures within the vent zone, and by the formation of tuff cones, diatremes, and collapsed areas. Volcanic activity in the zone was climaxed by the intrusion of at least 21 flow-banded rhyolite intrusions. The vent zone, together with other north-trending Oligocene faults and basins, all generally parallel to the Rio Grande rift, suggest that these features may be precursors of the rift. The transition into active faulting within the Rio Grande rift is marked by outpouring of Uvas Basaltic Andesite (26 m.y.). Initial rifting is indicated by eruption of basaltic andesite from a cinder cone constructed across the Cedar Hills fault, one of the large, throughgoing rift faults of the region. The interfingering of basaltic andesite flows with fanglomerate derived from the uplifted block suggests rifting was in progress at least 26 m.y. ago.

Late Tertiary evolution of the rift is characterized by the development of deep, broad downwarps in Miocene time that were filled with bolson deposits, and then segmented into smaller intrabasin uplifts and grabens in Pliocene time. Many of the uplifts of the region appear to have formed initially in Pliocene time, while others originated as early as earliest Miocene or latest Oligocene.
Clay minerals in east-central New Mexico
Authors: Glass H. D. , Frye J. C. , Leonard A. B.
Published: July 2023

Samples of Pleistocene deposits from east-central New Mexico were analyzed for clay mineral composition, and representative samples of Tertiary, Triassic, and Permian rocks were analyzed for evaluation of sediment sources. Throughout the region mont morillonite, illite, and kaolinite were found to be most widespread and abundant, and are shown to be detrital minerals from identifiable sources. Sepiolite was present only in the pond and lake deposits of the High Plains area. Attapulgite occurs in the Ogallala Formation and in middle to early Pleistocene soil profiles on alluvial deposits. Corrensite was present in three localities: a Triassic sandstone, late Wisconsinan sediment fills in basins developed in Permian rocks, and Holocene terrace deposits of the Pecos River valley.
Late Cenozoic mollusks and sediments, southeastern New Mexico
Authors: Leonard A. B. , Frye J. C. , Glass H. D.
Published: July 2023

Collections of late Pleistocene fossil shells from 20 localities yielded a total of 30 species of mollusks. The faunas in the southeastern area are less abundant and somewhat less varied than the faunas farther north in New Mexico. South of the bounding escarpment of the Ogallala-capped High Plains, mineral composition and lithology of three Ogallala outliers show consistency with the Ogallala clay-mineral zones described farther north. The Wisconsinan pond and lake deposits south of the High Plains contain sepiolite, and at one locality both sepiolite and attapulgite, in contrast to the terrace deposits of the Pecos valley. However, the molluscan faunas of the two areas do not differ significantly.
Sedimentology of braided alluvial interval of Dakota Sandstone, northeastern New Mexico
Authors: Gilbert J. L. , Asquith G. B.
Published: July 2023

The Dakota Sandstone in northeastern New Mexico is subdivided into three intervals. The Lower interval is a braided alluvial sheet composed of fine- to medium-grained, cross-stratified sandstone with conglomerate lenses. The middle interval represents a meander-belt environment and contains fine- to very fine grained, lenticular sandstone with interbedded carbonaceous shale and coal. The upper interval represents a transgressive marine succession containing fine- to very fine grained, horizontally stratified sandstone with burrow casts of Ophiomorpha.

Paleocurrent analysis of the braided alluvial interval indicates a dominant southeasterly transport direction. This conclusion is supported by a decrease in mean grain size and thickness to the east and southeast. Analysis of the stratification ratio indicates that proximal braided-stream facies are predominant in the west and northwest parts of the study area, and that distal braided-stream facies are predominant to the east and southeast. The sediment dispersal pattern and the presence of proximal braided stream facies indicate that the source areas were the San Luis and Apishapa uplifts of Colorado and New Mexico.
Subsurface temperature data on Jemez Mountains, New Mexico
Authors: Reiter Marshall A. , Weidman Charles , Edwards C. L. , Hartman Harold
Published: July 2023

Temperature data taken in 13 drill tests around the Valles Caldera, near the boundary of the Baca Location No., 1 are presented. Seven of these tests were shallow auger holes near the eastern, southern, and western boundaries, four were rotary holes of intermediate depth along the western boundary, and two were relatively deep tests. Of these last two, one was on the eastern flank of the Jemez Mountains. The other hole, penetrating to a depth of 730 m at basement rock, is located west of the Valles Caldera. Heat-flow measurements were obtained in the four intermediate drill tests whereas only geothermal gradients were measured in the remaining tests. Potential ground-water movement, lack of good thermal conductivity control, and the shallow depth of many drill tests makes the heat-flow pattern in the area uncertain. Two trends appear likely: higher heat flows are to the western side of the Valles Caldera and heat flows increase rapidly in approaching the margin of the Valles Caldera from the west. Both observations suggest a relatively shallow heat source located beneath the western part of the Valles Caldera.
Model for beach shoreline in Gallup Sandstone (Upper Cretaceous) of northwestern New Mexico
Authors: Campbell Charles V.
Published: July 2023

A model stratigraphic cross section for beach deposits in the Gallup Sandstone (Upper Cretaceous) in the Ship Rock area of northwestern New Mexico was contructed for comparison with other ancient deposits as well as with modern beaches. The model shows a lower regressive beach sandstone overlain unconformably by an upper transgressive offshore-bar sandstone. Landward, the beach sandstone interfingers with coal-swamp deposits or is truncated and overlain by dune sandstone. Seaward, the beach sandstone grades through shoreface sandstone into a transition zone that gives way to offshore siltstone and mudstone. Offshore siltstone and mudstone overlie and, in part, grade laterally into offshore-bar sandstone, which has no contiguous landward equivalents and transgresses all beach and related facies. Beach and offshore-bar sandstones, as well as their related facies, are identified by sedimentary structures within a particular stratigraphic framework; lithologic and paleontologic data support the interpretation. Both the beaches and the offshore bars consist of imbricate patterns of parallel beds. In the backshore of the beach, cross laminae dip either in diverse directions or landward; in the foreshore, cross laminae dip uniformly seaward at low angles. Shoreface sandstone is either churned by burrowing organisms or composed of large-scale, truncated wave-ripple laminae. Offshore-bar sandstone is generally churned but may show high-angle cross laminae that dip parallel with the length of the bar. This model provides a basis for predic - ting the location of petroleum reservoirs, evaluating source and seal relationships, determining volumes of both the reservoir and the aquifer providing the water drive, and predicting flow patterns within the reservoir.
Genesis, provenance, and petrography of the Glorieta Sandstone of eastern New Mexico
Authors: Milner Sam
Published: July 2023

The Glorieta Sandstone Member forms the lower 75 m of the San Andres Formation in northern Lincoln County, New Mexico. Three sandstone tongues, separated and capped by carbonate tongues, extend southward as the San Andres becomes predominantly carbonate in southern Lincoln County. The Glorieta Sandstone is a fine-grained, very well to moderately sorted, calcite-cemented quartz arenite that is medium to thick bedded. Internal cross-stratification, ripples, and parallel stratification are common in the Glorieta. The depositional model for the Glorieta Sandstone is based on the environmental interpretation of sandstones and associated carbonates and evaporites. Beach-upper-shoreface, middle-shoreface, lagoonal, and tidal-channel deposits generally typical of Holocene barrier-island complexes are common. Most of the Glorieta Sandstone in eastern New Mexico was deposited along north-northeast to south-southwest-trending coastlines, which were dominated by eastward and southward prograding barrier-island complexes during relatively low sea levels. Relative low stands were followed by rises of sea level and the westward and northward transgression and reworking of regressive deposits. Carbonate deposition was predominant in eastern Lincoln County following rises of sea level. Glorieta prograding coastlines were probably localized at the transition between the positive Pedernal massif and the negative element east of it. The Ancestral Rocky Mountains and cratonic areas farther to the northeast are probable source areas for the Glorieta.
Geology of Good Sight Mountain and Uvas Valley, southwest New Mexico
Authors: Clemons Russell E.
Published: July 2023

The 435-sq-mi area described by this report includes the Good Sight Mountains and the Uvas Valley in Luna, Dona Ana, and Sierra Counties, New Mexico; the geologic map covers the western part of the Good Sight-Cedar Hills volcano-tectonic depression of Oligocene age. The Sierra de las Uvas on the east and the Good Sight Mountains on the west border the north-plunging Uvas Valley syncline, near the western side of the depression. Rock units exposed in the area range fr om Eocene to Holocene. The Good Sight Mountains are composed chiefly of Rubio Peak Formation rocks, which include latite and andesite tuffs, breccias, flows, dikes, plugs, and stocks with minor interbedded conglomerate and volcaniclastic beds. The source o f these rocks was the Good Sight Mountains vent zone, which trends north for about 30 mi and is 4 mi wide. The Rubio Peak is correlative, in part, with the Palm Park Formation to the east, but may include some younger units. The Rubio Peak is unconformably overlain by tuff 6 and the upper sedimentary member of the Bell Top Formation on the eastern slopes of the Good Sight Mountains. Tuff 4, tuff 5, and the middle sedimentary member pinch out under the eastern part of the Uvas Valley. North of Nutt Mountain, Rubio Peak is overlain by Kneeling Nun Tuff or Tenaga Canyon (new name) andesites and latites, which intrude and overlie the Kneeling Nun. Uvas Basaltic Andesite flows are interbedded and overlie the upper sedimentary member of the Bell Top Formation on the west flank of the Sierra de las Uvas, under the Uvas Valley, and on the eastern flank of the Good Sight Mountains. Tenaga Canyon rocks are intruded and overlain locally by Uvas Basaltic Andesite. Nutt Mountain is a flow-banded rhyolite plug that intruded rocks as young as Tenaga Canyon formation. Quaternary clastic deposits, locally more than 300 ft thick, fill the Uvas Valley and extreme western part of the map area (eastern edge of the Mimbres Basin). Numerous water wells have penetrated these deposits and many of these wells bottom in the underlying Uvas and upper Bell Top Formation strata. Outcrops of the lower aquifers in the Sierra de las Uvas probably provide some recharge to the NuttHockett Underground Water Basin.
Earthquakes in New Mexico, 1849-1977
Authors: Sanford Allan R. , Olsen Kenneth H. , Jaksha Lawrence H.
Published: July 2023

The seismicity of New Mexico and its relation to major physiographic provinces and local geologic conditions within each province is presented. Earthquake data analyzed are 1) felt shocks before 1962 with maximum intensities of V or greater and 2) instrumentally located shocks with local magnitudes of 1.5 or greater for the period 1962-1977. Reports of felt shocks are almost exclusively from the Rio Grande rift, whereas the instrumental epicenters are distributed throughout the state. The instrumental data indicate a very low level of seismic activity in New Mexico relative to southern California. The data also reveal that earthquakes are most numerous in the Rio Grande rift although not as strong as those that occur in the High Plains and Colorado Plateau, two geologically stable provinces that border the rift. The more or less uniformly weak seismicity throughout the state suggests that earthquake activity is controlled more by local geologic conditions than by a general regional stress field. Some unusual local conditions that may be producing earthquakes are injection of magma into the crust in the Rio Grande rift near Socorro and hydrocarbon recovery practices in the High Plains of southeast New Mexico. Most activity in the High Plains and Colorado Plateau seems to be occurring along old buried faults that show no surface evidence of recent movement. The Jemez lineament, defined by a line of Pliocene and Pleistocene volcanoes through the southern part of the Colorado Plateau, across the Rio Grande rift, and into the northern High Plains, has seismic activity over much of its extent.
Quaternary geology of Lake Animas, Hidalgo County, New Mexico
Authors: Fleischhauer Jr. , Stone W. J.
Published: July 2023

The mapping of shoreline features in the Lower Animas Valley indicates three stages for Lake Animas. Estimated elevations of the high, intermediate, and low shorelines are 4,190-4,195 ft, 4,185 ft, and 4,175-4,180 ft, respectively. At an elevation of 4,195 ft (high stage), Lake Animas was approximately 17 mi long, 8 mi wide, 50 ft deep, and covered ap - proximately 150 sq mi. Most of the shorelines are marked by low ridges that consist of homogeneous sand and gravel deposited on beaches. The stratigraphy of thicker sections suggests the presence of offshore bars and barriers along some stretches of the low shore ridge and further suggests that these stretches of the low shore ridge may have formed during higher stages of the lake. Haplargids and Camborthids have developed on the shoreline deposits. The low and intermediate shorelines have identical soils with morphologies comparable to Holocene soils in the Las Cruces area. A Holocene age for soils of these two shorelines is supported by limited archeological evidence; the inferred Holocene age for Lake Animas at these levels is consistent with radiocarbon chronologies of other western lake basins and with local and regional paleoclimate reconstructions. The age of the soil and material of the high shore ridge is probably Pleistocene.

Twelve species representing eight genera of inadunate crinoids are reported from Lower and Middle Pennsylvanian strata of New Mexico. Two new species are proposed: Diphuicrinus santafeensis n. sp. and Aglaocrinus sutherlandi n. sp. Three taxa are not identified to species and six are ascribed to previously described species from the mid - continental United States and one from the southern Appalachian Mountains. Three species are from the Gobbler Formation (Morrowan), eight from the La Pasada Forma tion (Atokan), and one from the Alamitos Formation (Desmoinesian).
Vertebrate paleontology, stratigraphy, and biostratigraphy of Eocene Galisteo Formation, north-central New Mexico
Authors: Lucas Spencer G.
Published: July 2023

The Galisteo Formation consists of up to 1,300 m (4,300 ft) of fluvial sandstone, mudstone, siltstone, claystone, and conglomerate deposited during the early Tertiary in a basin in north-central New Mexico. Fossil vertebrates are found in the Galisteo Formation in four areas: east of Cerrillos along the north and south banks of the Galisteo Creek, the headlands of Montoya Arroyo in the Hagan Basin, the headlands of Arroyo del Tuerto in the Hagan Basin, and the Windmill Hill area in the Rio Puerco fault zone. Outcrops of the Galisteo Formation east of Cerrillos in sees. 14, 15, 16, 21, 22, and 23, T. 14 N., R. 8 E. are the type area of the formation as first recognized by Hayden (1869). An 1,100-m-(3,600-ft)- thick measured section of the Galisteo Formation in this area is designated the type section of the formation. Wasatchian (early Eocene) fossil vertebrates of the Cerrillos local fauna are found in red mudstones 369-424 m (1,210-1,391 ft) above the base of the Galisteo Formation in this section. The Cerrillos local fauna includes gars, trionychid turtles, and the mammals Ectoganus sp., Microsyops sp., Coryphodon sp., Paramyidae, Hyopsodus powellianus, cf. Homogalax protapirinus, and Hyracotherium sp. Fossil mammals of the Duchesnean (late Eocene) Tongue local fauna are found in the upper 231 m (758 ft) of the type section and also are found in approximately equivalent strata in Montoya Arroyo, Arroyo del Tuerto, and the Windmill Hill area. The Tonque local fauna includes trionychid and non-trionychid turtles and the mammals Pterodon sp., Teleodus cf. T. uintensis, Brontotheriidae, Forstercooperia minute, A mynodon sp., Protoreodon sp., Poabromylus cf. P. minor, and Protoceratidae. The Duchesnean is recognized as a valid land-mammal "age" whose limits are defined by immigration events. It is characterized by the Lapoint fauna of the Duchesne River Formation in Utah and its correlatives, the Pearson Ranch local fauna of the Sespe Formation, California, and the Porvenir local fauna of the Chambers Tuff, Texas. The upper yellow pebbly sandstone member of Gorham (1979) and Gorham and Ingersoll (1979) is used to lithologically correlate Galisteo outcrops in the Windmill Hill area, Hagan Basin, and Cerrillos area. This lithologic correlation is supported biostratigraphically by the distribution of the Tongue local fauna. The Galisteo Formation (Wasatchian-Duchesnean) is a time equivalent in part of the San Jose Formation (Wasatchian) in northwest New Mexico and the Baca Formation (Bridgerian-Duchesnean) in south- and west-central New Mexico.
Late Holocene displacement along the Organ Mountains fault in southern New Mexico
Authors: Gile Leland H.
Published: July 2023

An extensive fault system occurs along the east side of the Organ and San Andres Mountains in southern New Mexico. Alluvial fans of several ages have been displaced by the fault, indicating long-term faulting at different times in the same place. In many arid regions there is widespread evidence of erosion caused by past changes in climate, particularly by long, severe droughts after cooler periods with more effective moisture. Thus, episodes of climatically controlled erosion and deposition provide both discrete deposits and, where the deposits can be dated, a chronology that is independent of faulting and the sedimentation associated with it. Charcoal in the lower parts of such deposits has been dated by 14C methods at the Desert Soil-Geomorphology Project west and north of the Organ Mountains. These dates give chronological control on important episodes of sedimentation in the middle and late Holocene for the area. Soil morphology can be used to distinguish deposits of different ages if the morphological range has been determined for soils that have formed in the deposits. Both the faulting event and the deposits caused by faulting can then be placed in this chronological framework. Soil features having chronological significance in the study area are accumulations of organic carbon, silicate clay, and carbonate, as well as soil color, consistence, and structure. Soil morphology, coordinated with the geomorphic and stratigraphic arrangement of the deposits, was used to extrapolate the chronology from the dated sites to the fault area. The evidence indicates that a major displacement took place about 1,000 yrs B.P. Maximum displacement is estimated to have been about 15 ft.

Bloodlines
Authors:   , Dallis Tyler
Published: July 2023

Connections are valuable in everyday life. Bloodlines speaks about my personal connections to my biological, adoptive, and found families, along with my heritage and what it means to be a contemporary Indigenous artist. I am not much of a sentimental person when it comes to physical objects, but I collect memories of the people closest to me. Through the process of collecting memories, I am creating a mental Rolodex of experience, people, things, and events from my life. When building my pieces, I braid these memories into the clay as I coil the form to completion. Embedding them into the clay, strengthens and solidifies these memories into reality, making them less likely to be forgotten. To me, my families are everything. From a young age, my bloodlines played a crucial role in my development as a human being. I was surrounded by people who either held me up or pulled me down. I was constantly conflicted with myself, and that helped me grow into my own person. I learned how to be unapologetic and just be me. It was through these interactions that I began to shape who I would later become. Growing up on a Cherokee Nation reservation, I was enveloped in Indigenous culture, but lost touch with that side of myself when I moved away. Recently, I found a deeper connection to my heritage and feel confident speaking to the importance of being an Indigenous artist. Using the same materials and techniques my people used before me, I am creating a contemporary body of work that represents me, my life, and personal experiences.
The Anatomy and Phylogeny of a New Large Plioplatecarpine Mosasaur From the Campanian Bearpaw Shale of Montana (USA)
Authors:   , Carr Richard
Published: July 2023

In 2018, a large and associated plioplatecarpine mosasaur skull, pectoral girdle, and rib cage, whose total body length may have exceeded five meters, was uncovered in the Late Campanian Bearpaw Shale of Northeast Montana (USA). Phylogenetic analysis of this specimen, MOR 10855, recovers this individual as a basal member of the genus Plioplatecarpus. This specimen, is unique in that it is estimated to be nearly twice the size of any of the other species of Plioplatecarpus found in the Western Interior Seaway during this part of the Cretaceous. While the included phylogenetic study suggests MOR 10855 represents a new species within the genus Plioplatecarpus, as supported by the presence of diagnostic features in the frontal, quadrate, and scapula, a poor understanding of individual variation and ontogeny in the related species prevents the confident assignment of a new taxon at this time. In addition to the exceptionally well-preserved skull and anterior skeleton, this specimen also preserves two bite marks on the skull possibly inflicted by a similarly sized mosasaur. These bites exhibit evidence of healing, suggesting one of the first documented cases of non-lethal face biting in a plioplatecarpine mosasaur. The size disparity between this Plioplatecarpus specimen and other species of Plioplatecarpus known from the Bearpaw Shale (P. peckensis and P. primaevus) is reminiscent of size variance observed in some extant cetacean clades, including physeteroids and delphinids. The discovery of MOR 10855 suggests that this portion of the Western Interior Seaway was exceptionally productive during this part of the Cretaceous, and that ecological niche partitioning among the resident mosasaurs was probable.

Teatro argentino e espaço urbano: aplicações para uma teorização
Authors: Foster David William
Published: July 2023

O que me interessa abordar aqui não é a história do teatro argentino na cidade, a cidade de Buenos Aires, mas sim como a imagem da cidade é construída dentro do texto teatral. Em vez disso, estou interessado em lidar com como alguém poderia teorizar sobre a presença da experiência urbana no teatro sem cair na mera contagem de "imagens", "representações" e "alegorias" com o objetivo de investigar um problema de geografia cultural .do fenômeno teatral.
