    In this photograph, Italian immigrant Florindo Dipinto operates his tool-grinding cart on the sidewalk in Cleveland, Ohio, ca. 1950-1960. Dipinto immigrated to the United States from Italy in 1913 at age 17. He originally settled in Chicago where he learned the tool-grinding trade from his uncle, Vincenzo Fabrizio. After one year of working with his uncle, he was able to purchase his own tool-grinding cart. Before settling in Cleveland, he worked in a coal mine in Colorado; served briefly in the United States Army during World War I; operated his grinding cart in Youngstown, Ohio, and returned to Italy where he served in the Army and met his wife Maria. Between 1927 and 1961, Dipinto operated his grinding cart in Cleveland, sharpening tools for a variety of customers. He retired in 1961 and passed away in 1981. The grinding cart is part of the Ohio Historical Society museum collections

    Introduction to Cenozoic Antarctic glacial history

    No full text
    Fluctuations in size of the Antarctic Ice Sheet (AIS), a feature of the southern high latitudes for at least the last 35 million years, have been one of the major driving forces of changes in global sea level and climate through the Cenozoic Era. Under the prospect of a warming climate (IPCC, 2007), it is important to assess the past and future stability of the cryosphere, particularly after ice core records identified a direct link between variations in CO2 concentration in the atmosphere and palaeotemperatures. This special issue of Global and Planetary Change developed largely from contributions presented at the EGU meeting in Vienna, Austria (http://meetings.copernicus.org/egu2008/; 13–18 April, 2008), and at the International Geological Congress (IGC) Conference in Oslo, Norway (www.33igc.org/; 6–14 August, 2008) where we organised sessions designed to investigate the many orders and scales of variation of Antarctic ice sheets and palaeoclimate from Antarctic and Subantarctic records, from outcrop studies, deep sea drilling, continental margin drilling and seismic investigations, permafrost and ice core drilling. This special issue of Global and Planetary Change continues a series of related special issues and a book (Florindo et al., 2003, 2005; Barrett et al., 2006; Florindo et al., 2008; Florindo and Siegert, 2009), all of which are linked to the Antarctic Climate Evolution (ACE) project. ACE is an initiative of the Scientific Committee on Antarctic Research (SCAR) to investigate the climate and glacial history of Antarctica by linking climate and ice sheet modelling studies with terrestrial and marine geological and geophysical evidence of past changes (www.scar.org/researchgroups/geoscience/ace; http://www. ace.scar.org). Over the coming years, ACE will pursue a broad range of objectives to better comprehend past Antarctic changes through organisation of workshops and publication of special issues, allowing the dissemination of geological data and numerical modelling to a wide audience.Publishedv-vii1.8.

    COMMENT & REPLY - Comment on “Could the Mw = 9.3 Sumatra Earthquake Trigger a Geomagnetic Jerk?”

    No full text
    We thank M. Dumberry for providing the opportunity to discuss further the article [Florindo et al., 2005] in which we suggested that the Sumatra earthquake could have triggered a geomagnetic jerk. Dumberry is against our hypothesis for different reasons: (1) The displacement pattern produced by this earthquake is incompatible with the core-mantle boundary (CMB) deformations required for a torsional oscillation; (2) most of the deformations occurred locally, producing an actual mass displacement that has not involved the entire Earth; and (3) no abrupt change in the length of day (LOD) has been observed after this event. Although we agree with some of the considerations proposed by Dumberry, we think that these do not rule out the possibility that a jerk has been triggered by the Sumatra earthquake or that in the future, other earthquakes could induce a change in the flow pattern near the CMB leading to a geomagnetic jerk. On the contrary, we retain that this hypothesis is plausible, although it is more correct to talk about the existence of a possible link between geomagnetic jerks and earthquakes where the earthquake magnitude is not the only discriminating parameter.Published3433.3.

    Inverse to normal magnetic fabric transition in a Upper Miocene marly sequence from Tuscany, Italy

    No full text
    The magnetic susceptibility fabric of an upper Miocene marry sequence exposed along the Morra creek (Tuscany, Italy) changes from inverse (maximum susceptibility axis sub-perpendicular to bedding) to normal from the bottom to the top of the section. The change is gradual, with the presence of anomalous magnetic susceptibility fabrics at some levels. The anhysteretic remanence anisotropy is always normal throughout the sequence. The changes in the magnetic fabric seem to be controlled by sedimentological variations, with the inverse susceptibility fabric related to the abundance of iron-bearing carbonates in the lower part of the section. In the upper part of the section subtle changes in the detrital inputs in the basin, and particularly a larger contribution of clayey and ferrimagnetic particles, turned the susceptibility fabric to a normal type

    Risk management: The new normative scenario and the role of training and education [La formazione nel risk Management nelle Aziende sanitarie alla luce delle novità legislative]

    No full text
    The article focuses on the important issue of Risk Management in health. In particular, it describes and critically appraises the new Italian law on patients' safety and professional responsibility, and expand on the educational and training needs to implement it on the ground. On the basis of the new law the role of Risk Managers, responsible for quality and safety of healthcare services, becomes of crucial importance in both public and private hospitals in Italy. In such context, education and training of risk managers should be multi disciplinary, ad hoc designed on recent regulations, and, more in general, help to build a new era in healthcare management

    This research presents the origin of the concept of "race" used within the human species, along with the natural sciences, and its creators. The work shows that such use is no longer accepted within science today, more specifically within biology, which with the advances in genetics, molecular biology and related areas, These have shown that the concept of "race" is no longer valid, showing that the concept was introduced into science on purpose to generate a way to legitimize slavery, as a way to validate the cruelties generated by the white man to the black people, as a way to maintain slavery and the slave regime. I have as the starting point of this project a first encounter with the ethno-racial theme during graduation, which generated fruits which I highlight in the text - Education and the fight against racism: Reflections of a black university teacher. This project aims to show the applicability of Law No. 10.639/2003 regarding its application in textbooks of the PNLD 2020/2023. And from this reality found, the work comes to bring an understanding of the application (or not) of th e law created for the Brazilian population to understand the reality of African culture and history which is the basis of history and culture of Brazilian society, so the research aimed to analyze four collections of science textbooks for primary schools II of PNLD 2020/2023, where we tried to find the effectiveness of the law in the contents of genetics and evolution of the human species, in order to see the concrete implementation of Law No. 10.639/2003. Bringing with this one more opportunity to spread the law so that the academic community sees the need to have an education focused on anti-racism still so present in the Paraiban society, as in the UFPB itself.A presente pesquisa apresenta a origem do conceito “raça” utilizado dentro da espécie humana, junto as ciências naturais, e seus idealizadores, o trabalho vem constatar que tal utilização hoje não é mais aceita dentro da ciência, mais especificamente dentro da biologia, que com os avanços da genética, biologia molecular e áreas afins, estas mostraram que o conceito de “raça” não é mais válido, mostrando que o conceito foi introduzido dentro da ciência de forma proposital para gerar uma maneira de legitimar a escravidão, como uma forma de validar as crueldades geradas pelo homem branco ao povo negro, como maneira de manter a escravidão e o regime escravocrata. Tenho como ponto de partida deste projeto um primeiro encontro com a temática étnico racial durante a graduação, que gerou frutos o qual destaco no texto - A educação e a luta contra o racismo: Reflexões de uma professora universitária negra. Este projeto tem como objetivo mostrar a aplicabilidade da Lei nº 10.639/2003 no tocante a sua aplicação nos livros didáticos do PNLD 2020/2023. E a partir desta realidade encontrada, o trabalho vem trazer uma compreensão da aplicação (ou não) da lei criada para que a população brasileira compreenda a realidade da cultura e história africana que é a base da história e cultura da sociedade brasileira, com isso a pesquisa teve como objetivo a análise de quatro coleções de livros didáticos de ciências do ensino fundamental II do PNLD 2020/2023, onde se buscou encontrar a efetivação da lei nos conteúdos de genética e evolução da espécie humana, de forma a ver a implementação concreta da Lei nº 10.639/2003. Trazendo com isso mais uma oportunidade de divulgar a lei para que a comunidade acadêmica veja a necessidade de se ter uma educação voltada para o antirracismo ainda tão presente na sociedade Paraibana, quanto na própria UFPB
