Le Karst et les Alpes d'Italie nord-orientale: éléments pour une reconstruction de l'évolution culturelle au cours de la préhistoire récente
No full textCet article représente le premier essai de raccorder les études que dès 1990 environ ont regardé la partie plus orientale de l’Italie du nord, en particulier le Karst Classique, les Préalpes Julien et Carniques, les Alpes Julien, Carniques et de Tolmezzo. Les différences physiographiques et de l’histoire de la recherche rendent très difficile la reconstruction de l’évolution culturelle dans la préhistoire récente; néanmoins, il y a des données qui pourraient lier les différents territoires, c'est-à-dire la circulation des matériaux exotiques, l’économie pastorale et la viabilité
C.R.I.G.A. - Catasto Ragionato Informatico delle Grotte Archeologiche
No full textIl Progetto C.R.I.G.A. - Catasto Ragionato Informatico delle Grotte Archeologiche è un Progetto dell'Università degli Studi di Trieste, coordinato da E. Montagnari e F. Cucchi e realizzato con la collaborazione di giovani ricercatori.
Il risultato tangibile del Progetto è un archivio informatico georiferito – denominato appunto C.R.I.G.A. – che contiene i dati storico-archeologici e geo-ambientali di 179 cavità, su un totale di 2729 grotte naturali catastate.
Il C.R.I.G.A. è nato come strumento di ricerca – obiettivo ultimo è, infatti, l’identificazione degli elementi del paesaggio fisico che potrebbero aver influito/condizionato l’uso di ciascun sito da parte dell’uomo in antico –, ma si sta rivelando anche strumento utile di conservazione, tutela e valorizzazione di un patrimonio naturale e culturale di grande valore. Dati finalizzati al rilevamento dello stato di conservazione e delle potenzialità in termini di fruizione didattico / divulgativa e turistica sono già stati inseriti all’interno del database.
Il database è da giugno 2011 visibile in web all’indirizzo www.units.it/criga a seguito della conversione dell’originaria banca dati, creata in Microsoft Access e successivamente esportata in mySQL
Tocilizumab in two children with pansclerotic morphoea: A hopeful therapy for refractory cases?
No full textPansclerotic morphoea (PM) is a subtype of juvenile localised scleroderma characterised by severe course with generalised full-thickness skin involvement and possible growth and functional impairment. PM treatment comprises a combination of immunosuppressive agents such as corticosteroids, methotrexate, mycophenolate mofetil, PUVA and antithymocyte globulin and biological agents used in off-label. A possible role of IL-6 in the regulation of fibroblast differentiation and stimulation of collagen synthesis has been suggested and in patients with systemic sclerosis (SSc) the treatment with tocilizumab (TCZ) was associated to improvement of skin thickness and joint motion. We describe the first two cases of children with PM refractory to different immunosuppressive agents in which the use of TCZ reduced disease activity and stopped disease progression. Therefore, we suggest that an earlier use of this agent in such severe cases could be considered before irreversible sclerosis and tissue damage occurs. Juvenile localised scleroderma (JLS) comprises a group of autoimmune fibrosing conditions involving skin and subcutaneous tissues following an initial inflammatory reaction. Pansclerotic morphoea (PM), an extremely rare and severe subtype of JLS, is characterised by generalised full-thickness skin involvement that may extend over deeper tissues and bone with subsequent growth disturbance and disabling outcome. We describe the first two children with PM refractory to immunosuppressive treatments in which the off-label use of tocilizumab (TCZ), fully humanised anti IL-6R antibody, allowed to control the inflammation and stopped the extension of the disease
Variations on the Author
Get PDF“Variations on the Author” discusses two of Eduardo Coutinho’s recent films (Um Dia na Vida, from 2010, and Últimas Conversas, posthumously released in 2015) and their contribution to the general question of documentary authorship. The director’s filmography is characterized by a consistent yet self-effacing form of authorial self-inscription: Coutinho often features as an interviewer that rather than express opinions propels discourses; an interviewer that is good at listening. This mode of self-inscription characterizes him as an author who is not expressive but who is nonetheless markedly present on the screen. In Um Dia na Vida, however, Coutinho is completely absent form the image, while Últimas Conversas, on the contrary, includes a confessional prologue that moves the director from the margins to the center of his films. This article examines the ways in which these works stand out in the filmography of a director who offers new insights into the notion of cinematic authorship
[Newspaper Clipping: Author Claims Evidence of Second JFK Assassin #1]

Also By The Same Author: AKTiveAuthor, a Citation Graph Approach to Name Disambiguation
No full textThe desire for definitive data and the semantic web drive for inference over heterogeneous data sources requires co-reference resolution to be performed on those data. In particular, name disambiguation is required to allow accurate publication lists, citation counts and impact measures to be determined. This paper describes a graph-based approach to author disambiguation on large-scale citation networks. Using self-citation, co-authorship and document source analyses, AKTiveAuthor clusters papers, achieving precision of 0.997 and recall of 0.818 over a test group of eight surname clusters
John F. Kennedy telegram to Roosevelt
No full textJersey Homesteads (later the Borough of Roosevelt) was established in the 1930s as an agro-industrial cooperative community. It was established specifically for urban Jewish garment workers, many of whom had emigrated from Europe. President John F. Kennedy sent a telegram to the citizens of Roosevelt, New Jersey, apologizing for not being able to attend the memorial dedication in honor of former President Franklin Delano Roosevelt. (Jersey Homesteads became Roosevelt in 1945 in honor of the president.) President Kennedy expressed his gratitude to the people of Roosevelt for constructing the memorial, and commented that it will serve as a constant reminder of Roosevelt's good works
Logarithmic variance profiles and the corresponding f-1 spectra of temperature fluctuations in turbulent Rayleigh-Bénard convection
No full textWe report experimental results for the temperature variance 2(z) and the corresponding frequency spectra P(f) in turbulent Rayleigh-Bénard convection (RBC) in a cylindrical sample of aspect ratioT= D/L = 1:00 (D = 1:12 m is the diameter and L = 1:12 m the height). The measurements were conducted in the Rayleigh-number range 1011 < Ra < 1:35 1014 and Pr ' 0:8. For Ra = 1:35x1014, 2(z) could be described well by a logarithmic dependence on the vertical position z in a range of z 1 < z < z 2 with z 1 ' 70 and z 2 = 0:1L. Here L=(2Nu) is the thickness of a thin thermal sublayer adjacent to the horizontal plate where the heat flux (denoted by the Nusselt number Nu) is carried mostly by thermal diffusion. In the log layer, we found that the temperature spectra had a significant frequency range over which P(f) f with close to 1. As Ra decreased, increased so that the log layer became thinner. At Ra = 2:05 1011, z 2 < z 1 and therefore there was no range for a log layer. Correspondingly, the temperature spectrum near the horizontal plate did not have the f1 scaling form either
