No full textNo âmbito do Projecto PROCEN – A produção cerâmica do Norte (Sécs. XII-XX) -
Estudo histórico, tipológico e laboratorial, do Instituto de Ciências Sociais da Universidade do Minho e financiado pela JNICT, tem-se procedido à caracterização físico-química de argilas e de fragmentos de cerâmica etnográfica de proveniência seguramente conhecida. Tal é feito com o objectivo de conhecer melhor as características técnicas das produções cerâmicas tradicionais,
visando criar uma base de dados sobre centros produtores que permita, entre outros aspectos, estimar a proveniência de fragmentos cerâmicos encontrados em escavações arqueológicas.
Neste primeiro artigo de uma série de artigos monográficos sobre regiões tradicionalmente produtoras de cerâmicas, apresentar-se-ão alguns elementos de caracterização
físico-química de argilas e cerâmicas etnográficas da região de Prado/Vila Verde/Barcelos. As freguesias dos actuais concelhos de Vila Verde e de Barcelos onde se trabalha o barro pertenceram, noutros tempos, ao concelho de Prado, extinto em 1855

Alterosa polyacinata Barcelos-Silva, Dumas & Pes, 2015, sp. nov.
No full textAlterosa polyacinata sp. nov. Fig. 1 Diagnosis. Alterosa polyacinata sp. nov. is similar to Alterosa caparaonensis Blahnik 2005 and Alterosa ruschii Dumas & Nessimian 2013, resembling these species in having highly modified, basally branched intermediates appendages, each heavily armed with coarse setae. Additionally, the basolateral projection on tergum X and the structure and lack of spines in the phallus are also similar. The new species can be distinguished from the others by the presence of a triangular dorsal projection on tergum X and by the structure of the mesal branches of the intermediate appendages, which are divided into superior and inferior arms, whereas in A. caparoenensis and in A. ruschii they are not divided. Description. Adult male. Length of each forewing 5.5 mm (n= 1). Color (in alcohol) brownish; legs, palps, and antennae pale brown, wings brownish-yellow. Male genitalia. Tergum VIII with posteromesal margin slightly emarginate. Sternum IX with anterolateral margin strongly rounded, extending from dorsum; posteroventral margin greatly produced, forming broad expansion, subtruncate at apex (Fig. 1 A). Tergum IX fused to base of tergum X. Tergum X, in dorsal view, broad at base, abruptly narrowed at apical second third; with mesal projection over base of tergum (Fig. 1 D); projection triangular and broadest apically, with seven irregular stout spines, five apically and two subapically positioned, and one tiny apicomesal spine (Figs. 1 C, 1 D); basolaterally with scrabous cuticle broadly projecting ventrolaterad, bearing numerous long spine-like setae ventrolaterally (Fig. 1 C); apex sensillate, rounded, moderately enlarged in lateral view (Figs. 1 A, 1 C). Intermediate appendages sclerotized, paired, moderately elongate, length subequal to preanal appendages, branched basally (Figs. 1 A, 1 B), both mesal and lateral branches of appendages covered with coarse setae; mesal branches each forked subbasally, its superior arm finger-like, slightly curved outward as viewed dorsally, its inferior arm capitate; lateral branches clavate (Figs. 1 A, 1 B,). Preanal appendages setose, slender, moderately elongate, not greatly modified, slightly enlarged near mid length; apex with few short, spine-like setae (Figs. 1 A, 1 B). Inferior appendages setose, elongate, linear, flattened on mesal surface (Figs. 1 A, 1 E); first article, in lateral view, narrow, about three times longer than wide, slightly larger at base; second article shorter than first, its apex rounded, slightly enlarged with small pad of short, stiff apicomesal setae (Figs. 1 A, 1 E). Phallobase tubular, elongate, narrow, weakly curved at midlength; endotheca without evident spines or phallotremal sclerites (Figs. 1 F, 1 G). Holotype male. BRAZIL, Espírito Santo: Fundão (Hotel Fazenda Monte Sião, 19 ° 56 '02.0''S 40 ° 24 '45.0''W), 02.xii. 2010, E.A. Raimundi, F.F. Salles, F.C. Massariol, P. Barcelos-Silva, Y.S. Feitosa legs.; in alcohol (DZRJ). Etymology. The composite epithet of the specific name, polyacinata, is a combination of the Greek prefix πολύ- or poly- and Greek adjective ᾄκαινατος, -α, -ου or acinatus, -a, - um, which means "many spined." This name refers to the presence of seven stout spines on the apicomesal projection of tergum X and to the many coarse, spine-like setae on intermediate appendages and on the basal ventrolateral projections of tergum X. Habitat. The specimen described here was collected in a narrow stream with dense vegetation cover within a small remaining of Atlantic Forest. The little stream has a weak water flow with stony bottom and many leaves deposited. Comments. Despite the fact that we have observed only a single specimen of the new species, we feel confident to describe it as new for science based on its numerous, dramatic diagnostic characters. Alterosa polyacinata sp. nov. differs from all other species of Alterosa in the dorsal triangular projection of tergum X, the unique structure of the intermediate appendages with mesal branches bearing dorsal and ventral arms, and the pair of basal ventrolateral projections of tergum X with numerous long spine-like setae on their ventral margins. In order to include this species in the identification key provided by Dumas et al. (2013) we propose here an addendum to it, with some modifications to couplet 18, where Alterosa polyacinata sp. nov. would be included. 18.

Variations on the Author
No full text“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

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
