    [EN] We solve two questions regarding spaces with a (Gδ)-diagonal of rank 2. One is a question of Basile, Bella and Ridderbos about weakly Lindelöf spaces with a Gδ-diagonal of rank 2 and the other is a question of Arhangel’skii and Bella asking whether every space with a diagonal of rank 2 and cellularity continuum has cardinality at most continuum.Bella, A.; Spadaro, S.

    APP_cycling Tor Bella Monaca

    No full text
    The regeneration of the Tor Bella Monaca district is an issue that cannot be faced ignoring the social, environmental and technological evidence that nowadays concerns most of the Italian or international peripheral settlements. The APP_ cycling proposal intends not only to overturn the marginal condition of empty spaces, relocating them at the center of the dynamics related to the suburban living. The project also seize the challenge of intervening not with specific solutions, but on the entire socio-technical-environmental system of the study area. As regards to the first aspect, we operate through regenerative, coherent and integrated activities, without separations between the general urban system, open spaces, infrastructures and interventions that support inhabitants. Concerning the second aspect, pre-feasibility is interpreted not as a closed and predetermined technical act, but as a projection of transversal scenarios that involve multiple problematic levels, different families of interventions and multiple solutions. The proposal responds to the pre-feasibility challenge by proposing a project-process that mediates between strategic, tactical and operational interventions. In this way, more co-evolutionary visions are determined, relying on open opportunities, to reconnect in a regenerative sense the different technical-environmental, socio-economic and cultural entities that today are ignored or are conflicting, but tomorrow they could become fundamental for a new model of coexistence in the urban suburbs

    How to be a woman. Models of masochism and sacrifice in young adult fiction

    No full text
    Buffy, Bella, Veronica, Katniss, Clary, Tris and Saba : For two decades post-feminist heroines have faced life-threatening trials as part of their progress to womanhood. In this chapter I consider how young adult popular fictions operate as forms of pedagogy for young women by offering them particular models of maturity and womanhood. I explore the recurrence and reformulation of a persistent pattern of behaviour in which heroines engage in risky and/or masochistic behaviours for which they are emotionally rewarded.. These recurrences function as a form of vicarious experiential learning in which readers and viewers learn that emotional gratification and adult status are conferred through self-harm and self-sacrifice. Popular culture is not a monolithic form and young adult fictions are no exception. An analysis of fictional examples of this behaviour pattern challenges the idea that heroines today are empowered agents as a result of the legacy of feminism. At the same time, the analysis belies any notion that fictions are universally hegemonic and oppressive – fictions can and do disrupt and interrogate this pattern of emotional masochism. Scholars of public pedagogy have explored the complexities, contradictions and subtleties of the pedagogical process. Sandlin O’Malley and Burdick (2011) in their review of public pedagogy literature acknowledge that some scholarship has demonstrated how “the teaching and learning inherent within daily life can be both oppressive and resistant” (p. 144). Jubas and Knutson (2012) also see public pedagogy as an arena where contradictions and tensions are in play. They argue that we can see “New examples of dialectic or tensions … between the authority of the producer and the consumer; between traditional structures which ground identities and help people make sense of cultural texts, and personal agency which frees people to choose and invent identities and meanings” (p. 86). This analysis aims to contribute to understandings of the complexities of public pedagogy by showing how fictions aimed primarily at young women both resist and accommodate patriarchy

Umbones prominent. Colour white, orange pink or yellow. Protoconch 160 µm long, PI smooth, 70 µm, PII with prominent growth increments. Sculpture of strong, radial ribs that bifurcate ventrally, with new ribs intercalating into interspaces. Ribs crossed by concentric lamellae forming scales on summit of ribs. Juvenile shells with more prominent and irregular ribs (Fig. 16E). Lunule elongate, asymmetric, larger in RV. Hinge with 2 cardinal teeth in each valve, anterior cardinal usually small and thin; single, large posterior and anterior lateral teeth in RV and two anterior and posterior laterals in LV. Ligament short, set deeply in an obliquely triangular resilifer. Anterior adductor muscle scar medium long, detached for half of length, diverging from pallial line at angle of about 25°. Pallial line entire. Shell margin smooth. REMARKS Although there are likely several species of Ctena living within the IWP, identification is difficult and the genus worldwide is in need of taxonomic revision. The New Caledonia specimens are very similar to samples from Hawaii, the probable type locality of C. bella. Zuchsin & Oliver (2003) illustrate (as Ctena divergens) very similar shells from the northern Red Sea.Published as part of Glover, Emily A. & Taylor, John D., 2007, Diversity of chemosymbiotic bivalves on coral reefs: Lucinidae (Mollusca, Bivalvia) of New Caledonia and Lifou, pp. 109-181 in Zoosystema 29 (1) on pages 134-136, DOI: 10.5281/zenodo.539229

    Dissertação (mestrado) - Universidade Federal de Santa Catarina, Centro de Filosofia e Ciências Humanas, Programa de Pós-Graduação em Geografia, Florianópolis, 2014.A presente pesquisa tem por objetivo investigar as mudanças recentes no espaço agrário da fronteira Brasil-Uruguai, mais precisamente no que diz respeito à questão agrária e camponesa. Com um viés libertário, procura-se realizar uma análise a respeito da introdução dos projetos de Assentamentos Rurais de Reforma Agrária no município de Santana do Livramento-RS e das recentes ocupações de terra em Bella Unión-UY. Para tal, elabora-se um resgate histórico a respeito do conceito de campesinato com ênfase na discussão a respeito do anarquismo agrário. Procura-se identificar e analisar as diferentes formas de acesso à terra no Brasil e no Uruguai e seus reflexos na área de estudo. Por fim, é realizado um relato de algumas dessas experiências e procura-se identificar os impactos das mesmas no território fronteiriço e revelar os limites e possibilidades da atividade camponesa na fronteira do Brasil com o Uruguai.Abstract : This research aims to investigate recent changes in the agrarian landscape of the border between Brazil and Uruguay, specifically with regard to the agrarian and peasant question. From a libertarian perspective, we seek to conduct an analysis regarding the introduction of the draft Rural Settlements of the Land Reform in the municipality of Santana do Livramento-RS and recent land occupations in Bella Unión-UY. To this end, we propose a historical approach about the concept of peasantry with emphasis on the discussion of the agrarian anarchism. It seeks to identify and analyze different forms of access to land in Brazil and Uruguay and their reflections in the study area. Finally, we conducted an account of some of these experiences that seeks to identify the impacts of the border territory and reveal the limits and possibilities of peasant activity on the border of Brazil with Uruguay

    In this study we describe and discuss the way we daily act in remote telematic tracking of CF outpatients, a procedure which has been improved through our daily experience in telehomecare. Currently, there are almost 30 patients involved in our telehomecare project. We describe and discuss intervention parameters and the way we manage a register of performances in spreadsheet format. We also describe the training program for the patients and their and the procedures through which we maintain contacts with patients and Vivisol assistance and the periodical satisfaction surveys. (from 15 of february 2010 to 24 of may 2011). Total transmissions 882, Spirometry 1317, SaO2 291, Compliance (transmissions/patient days) 8,91%, Hospital controls 19, Total contacts 722, Phone calls 494. We analyze the 2010 - 2011 data. We discuss the compliance of patients toward Telehomecare, the efficacy of cell phone in establishing contact with patients and the relevancy of symptoms' rescue in diagnosing the pulmonary relapse episodes. We discuss medico-legal aspects of telemedicine activity, in the light of standards and legislation, including issues related to the processing of privacy and security data. We discuss the professional team needs and requirements, dedicated to the activities of telemedicine and procedures related to clinical risk management. We conclude by underlying how telemedicine represents a promising new tool for patients and health professionals, and that under certain conditions it can improve the assistance, working conditions and also to reduce costs. However, its usage has to be followed by precise studies about its efficacy, and also by paying particular attention to the partly new issues that derive from it
