title: GROWTH ENVIRONMENT AND POT VOLUME AFFECT BIOMASS AND ESSENTIAL OIL PRODUCTION OF BASIL1

description: ABSTRACT The objective of this work was to evaluate the effect of pot volume and growth environment on the productions of biomass and essential oil of basil plants (Ocimum basilicum L.). A completely randomized experimental design was used, with five replications, in a 6×2 factorial arrangement consisting of 6 growth environments (full sun; 50% black shade screen; 50% silver shade screen; 50% red shade screen; 35% green shade screen; 150 µm low density polyethylene film - LDPE) and two pot volumes (3.5 L and 5.0 L). The plants were cut and evaluated for variables related to growth, root system, and extraction of essential oil. The growth environments and pot volumes affected the production of biomass and essential oil of the basil plants evaluated. Plants grown under red and silver shade screens had 36.03% and 31.31% higher plant height than those grown at full sun, respectively. Basil plants grown in 5.0-liter pots under black shade screen produced higher essential oil contents. The biomass production of basil plants grown in 5.0-liter pots was affected by the red and green shade screens and LDPE film. The growth of basil plants in 5.0-liter pots under 50% black shade screen is recommended when the crop is intended for essential oil extraction; and their growth in 5.0-liter pots under red shade screen, green shade screen, or LDPE film is recommended when the crop is intended for fresh biomass production.

title: Surfing with James Joyce and Dorothy Lamour. Soundscapes, the Polynesian imaginary and the compositional process of Gilberto Mendes

description: Abstract In the work of Gilberto Mendes (1922-2016) there is an incessant practice of interfaces with the languages of cinema, literature, theater, advertising , among others. Polynesia, in its 1930s Hollywood representation is a frequent subject. This scene is constructed, from elements presented in the musical code, coming from Viennese aesthetics. Mendes will assimilate this aesthetic in his own work. In the 1950s, the culture of tiki pop emerges, as well as its soundscape created by Martin Denny. It is intended to point out the distant paradise transformations and the role of music in his composition.

title: Mondego Green Park: public use and management

description: Abstract This research aims to understand the management and the public use of the Mondego Green Park, located on the Mondego River banks, in Coimbra, Portugal. Therefore, it was necessary to conduct bibliographical and documentary research, as well as several visits to the park and an interview with the current responsible for managing the area. It was possible to understand the creation process of the Green Park, its privatization process and its use by the population of Coimbra and note the lack of socio-cultural activities in this area, despite the existence of an undergraduate degree about this subject in the city, as well as conflicts between public and private sector and the problems faced nowadays.

title: Soil Seed Bank of the Forest Restored, Reserva Natural Vale, Espírito Santo State, Brazil

description: The objective of the present study was to compare the composition and structure of the soil seed banks of a Forest Restoration (FR) and a Reference Ecosystem (RE). To this end, 60 samples of 30×30×5 cm topsoil were collected in the Reserva Natural Vale located in Linhares, Espirito Santo state, Brazil. Individuals of 25 species and 15 botanical families germinated for six months. The study found increased density of Urochloa decumbens (brachiaria) in the FR, an invasive species which inhibits the process of ecological succession, representing a problem in cases of possible disturbances. On the other hand, the presence of facilitative succession species such as Cecropia and Trema in the FR were characterized positively, because these species are responsible for forest regeneration after disturbances and they were not used during the planting of the area, that is, the forest restoration is behaving as an ecosystem that already presents resilience to disturbances such as the creation of gaps.

title: The rise of the term communication since the Rockefeller Seminar

description: Abstract From 1939 to 1940, the Rockefeller Foundation promoted in the Rockefeller Foundation Communication Seminar, in the United States, which brought together researchers once a month to discuss the direction of studies on communication. In the outbreaks of World War II, the seminar turned out to be a milestone in the history of the field of communication. This article seeks to examine a barely visible consequence of Rockefeller Seminar: the gradual replacement of the word propaganda in the media studies in the United States, substituted by the term communication. We conclude that the activities of the seminar were decisive for the change in terminology, which, in turn, had an epistemological impact in the field.

title: Noise Source Distribution of Coaxial Subsonic Jet-Short-Cowl Nozzle

description: ABSTRACT: The noise source distribution of a short-cowl coaxial jet operating at different velocity ratios is described in this work. This was motivated by an ongoing research about noise prediction of coaxial jets through Acoustic Analogy with purposes of industrial engine application. This research has been carried out between Universidade Federal de Uberlândia (UFU), Brazil and the Institute of Sound and Vibration Research (ISVR) at Southampton University, UK. The numerical approach employed is originally based on Lighthill Acoustic Analogy. This technique, although likely known, is associated with an improved energy transfer time-scale, used in the turbulence two-point correlation function, in order to enhance the source model. The source model is coupled with the aerodynamic calculation of flow through turbulence quantities evaluated by using a standard k-ε turbulence modeling. The Computational Fluid Dynamics data have also been used to provide complementary information about the coaxial jet noise production mechanisms. Experimental data were used in order to corroborate the results from the current model. Good agreement has been found, showing that high and low frequency contributors to the radiated noise for low velocity ratio are aggregated in a region about seven to ten secondary diameters downstream, while at higher velocity ratios sources are continuously spread from about one up to ten secondary diameters from the jet exit.

title: The doctor-patient relationship in oncology: a study from the patient’s perspective

description: Abstract The peculiarities of cancer diagnosis require the doctor to adopt a different approach and make the study of the psychosocial aspects of the patient and communication techniques necessary to avoid iatrogenesis. This paper aims to study the relationship between the doctor and the cancer patient in a public oncology reference center. A qualitative and descriptive exploratory study was performed involving 17 patients diagnosed with cancer at Fundação Centro de Controle de Oncologia do Estado do Amazonas (Amazonas State Oncology Control Center Foundation), Brazil. The patients interviewed expressed a wide variation of feelings; they wanted greater sincerity and clarity from doctors during diagnosis; they questioned the difficulty of access to health care; they complained about the effects of treatment and the emotional and physical limitations experienced during the process; and finally they emphasized the importance of the doctor-patient relationship. In conclusion, it was noted that patients recognized important aspects of the diagnostic process and the treatment of cancer, which, when duly contextualized, serve as a basis for rethinking medical practice and the doctor-patient relationship.

title: PLANNING AND IMPLEMENTING AN ONLINE COURSE AS A TEACHING PRACTICUM ACTIVITY IN ENGLISH LANGUAGE TEACHING

description: Although there has been considerable growth in the use of Information and Communication Technologies (ICT) in distance education in Brazil in the last decade, the education of foreign language teachers in this context seems to remain scarce. We report the experience of an English language teaching practicum in a 'Letras' course in which student-teachers were responsible for all stages of design and implementation of an extracurricular course offered on the Moodle platform. Guided by a reflective and collaborative approach, the professional preparation process included the writing of an academic article on the experience. The papers written by the five student teachers who did their practicum by means of this mode in 2013 were analyzed. The purpose was to verify the appropriation of literature as well as practical considerations in building knowledge about distance learning. The contact with the literature seems to have served to strengthen adherence to the supervisor's proposal and the lived experience pointed to aspects that could be improved in future offers of the same course. The results suggest that opportunities such as those reported could contribute to the construction of theoretical and practical knowledge about distance learning.

title: THE EVALUATION OF MOTOR COMPETENCE IN TYPICALLY DEVELOPING CHILDREN: AN INTEGRATIVE REVIEW

description: ABSTRACT The development of motor competence (MC) is essential in childhood. In this respect, previous studies have found several positive associations of the MC with physical activity, cardiorespiratory fitness, physical fitness, and perceived physical competence, as well as an inverse association with weight status. The lack of MC during this stage might, therefore, compromise the future adoption of active and healthier lifestyles. This review aimed at listing and examining the different instruments that have been used to evaluate MC in typically developing children, pointing the weakness and strengths from the perspective of Physical Education (PE) teachers. A systematic search of six electronic databases was conducted. Research designs included cross-sectional, longitudinal or experimental/quasi-experimental. Forty-two articles were identified according to the inclusion criteria. A preference for quantitative measures (21 studies) was verified comparatively to a more qualitative approach (13 studies), although eight studies used both measures. Additionally, we have found that 34 studies used standardized protocol tests and eight studies used protocols developed by the authors. In general the protocols exhibited some strong points, however several presented weaknesses that can limit their application in PE classes, such as the excessive amount of time required, the large number of tasks, the ceiling or floor effects, and the fact that not all MC components are simultaneously evaluated. Different instruments and methodologies have been used to evaluate MC. Finally, a quantitative standardized protocol test is suggested, with proper reliability and validity, which can be used by physical education professionals.

title: Compatibility of Heterorhabditis amazonensis(Rhabditida: Heterorhabditidae) strain RSC-5 with different acaricides used for the control of Rhipicephalus microplus (Acari: Ixodidae)

description: The aim of this study was to assess the viability of Heterorhabditisamazonensis strain RSC-5 after exposure to different acaricides used for Rhipicephalusmicropluscontrol. Six treatment groups were formed, one for each product. Each group was composed of 75,000 nematodes in a 20 mL solution of different acaricides, at commercial concentration. The control group was formed by the same number of nematodes in 20 mL of distilled water. All the groups were kept in a climate-controlled chamber at 25°C. The percentage of survival and infectivity in Galleria mellonella caterpillars were determined 24 and 72 hours after the beginning of the experiment. The mortality of the caterpillars in the infectivity test was assessed 72 and 120 hours. After 24 hours of exposure, only the active ingredient deltamethrin did not significantly reduce the survival percentage of H. amazonensis RSC-5 (p &gt; 0.05). The same was observed after 72 hours of exposure to the combination of chlorpyriphos + cypermethrin + piperonyl butoxide + citronellal. There was no survival of infective juveniles in the groups exposed to the combination of chlorphenvinphos + dichlorvos. The exposure to chlorphenvinphos for 72 hours resulted in 50% of mortality. The potential to infect G. mellonella caterpillars was only reduced in the group treated with the active ingredient chlorphenvinphos. Chlorphenvinphos and the combination of chlorphenvinphos + dichlorvos were not compatible with H. amazonensisRSC-5, causing a reduction in the survival and infectivity of juveniles of this nematode, while the other products were compatible, causing no reduction in the infectivity of this isolate.
