The fossil record of the Bramble-shark Echinorhinus (Echinorhiniformes, Echinorhinidae) in South America
The present contribution aims is to analyze the fossil record of the genus Echinorhinus in South America, and particularly Argentina. We made a first-hand examination of the species Echinorhinus pozzi from the early Miocene of Patagonia, and recognize it as a valid taxon. The species was originally described in the XIX century, and since then no author described or illustrated the original material based on observations of the actual specimens. The genus Echinorhinus is reported for the first time in late Miocene Paraná beds, based on the occurrence of fossil dermal spines. The species Echinorhinus maremagnum occurring in the latest Cretaceous outcrops from Patagonia in Chile and Argentina is considered valid and clearly distinguishable from E. lapaoi, contradicting recent claims that argue their synonymy.Fil: Bogan, Sergio.

Escape from moral quietism: What might Britain’s chav and Australia’s bogan offer the US’ hillbilly?
Across the US, Britain and Australia, debate over how these societies might best respond to the formerly working class children of the 1980’s rightwing revolutions have become commonplace. A (predominately white) working class has been reduced to hillbillies, chavs and bogans: individual failures, unwilling to embrace the opportunities that globalizing capitalism holds out. Differences between the three nations are important. The archetypal hillbilly celebrates independence and finds recourse to welfare shameful. Conservative hillbilly authors such as J.D. Vance (Hillbilly Elegy) champion such values by promoting a self-help morality tale. Vance’s fantasia devalues the role played by rightwing political activists, who successfully shifted social policy from a ‘rights-based’ and political to an ‘opportunity-driven’ and moralistic model. As left scholars such as A.R. Hochschild (Strangers in Their Own Land) shows, many poor US whites do indeed abhor ‘politics’ and actively pride themselves on such moralizing. In Britain and Australia by contrast, the archetypal chav and bogan celebrate ‘getting something for nothing’, as working class author Owen Jones (Chavs) and comedian Pauly Fenech (Housos) suggest. For Jones, chav-ism is a rational ‘in your face’ response to the decimation of working class solidarity and with it, political power under rightwing reformism. For Fenech, bogan-ism similarly represents active rejection of suburban Australian affluence by those unable to enjoy it. This paper compares and contrasts the moral quietism of the hillbilly with the active refusal of the chav and the bogan. And, it considers possibilities for undermining moral quietism and repoliticizing politics in the world of the hillbilly by translating Jones’ strategy of promoting media debate over economic redistribution and Fenech’s strategy of celebrating resourcefulness, inclusiveness and anti-consumerism
Phase equilibrium investigations of the Adirondack Class basalts from the Gusev plains, Gusev crater, Mars
Thesis (S.M.)--Massachusetts Institute of Technology, Dept. of Earth, Atmospheric, and Planetary Sciences, 2006.Includes bibliographical references (leaves 48-51).Phase equilibrium experiments have been performed on a synthetic analog of the Gusev plains basalt composition from the Spirit landing site on Mars, determined by the Alpha Particle X-ray Spectrometer on the Spirit Rover (Gellert et al., 2006; McSween et al., 2006). The near-liquidus phase relations were determined over the pressure range of 0.1 MPa to 1.5 GPa and at temperatures from 1105 °C to 1390 °C in a piston cylinder apparatus and l-atm gas mixing furnace. The composition is multiply saturated with olivine, orthopyroxene, and spinel on the liquidus at 1310 °C and 1.0 GPa, or 85 km depth on Mars, placing an upper limit constraint on the thickness of the Martian lithosphere at the time of eruption. Experiments carried out at 0.1 MPa show Fo77 olivine as the first liquidus silicate mineral, appearing near 1250 °C. Olivine and spinel co-crystallize until pigeonite and plagioclase (An73) join the crystallizing assemblage at 1125 °C. Low pressure crystallization of the Gusev composition does not produce liquids that could be parental magmas to surface types 1 and 2 of the Martian surface, nor do they appear to be related to olivine-phyric shergottites or other SNC meteorites. The iron-rich Gusev basalts appear to have been crystallized from a less depleted mantle source than the magnesian olivine-phyric shergottite Yamoto 980459.by Anna Gabrielle Bogan Monders.S.M
