No full textDescrizione degli autografi di Cesare Vitale, medico e viceconsole del Regno delle due Sicilie ad Atene negli anni cruciali delle lotte per l’Indipendenza della Grecia, e testimone delle alterne vicende che riguardarono la città, dal primo tentativo di liberazione dai conquistatori occupanti ottomani, nell’aprile del 1821, ai drammatici momenti che segnarono l’assedio di Atene e la resa dell’Acropoli nel maggio 1827
Vulnerability of the karstic aquifers: the example of the Castelluccio hydrogeological system in Southern Italy.
No full textThe mountain region of Basilicata, southern Italy, is rich of good quality groundwater
mainly flowing within large carbonate hydro-structures. One such example is represented
by the Castelluccio karstic aquifer system, characterized by peculiar hydrogeological
and hydrodynamic features. This aquifer formed by limestone and dolomitic
limestone showing different degrees of fissuring and, in places, karstic features. Its
conspicuous groundwater flows with mean discharges of about 500 l/s and outpurs
from several scattered springs, most of which are not adequately exploited or they remain
even uncollected. The main spring is located at San Giovanni di Castelluccio and
it is represented by some resurgences outpuring along an important high-angle fault
plane, which places side by side the high-permeability fissured limestones and the
low-permeability fluvial-lacustrine sandy-to-muddy deposits, so generating a typical
fault-spring case. In the present research, the integrated analysis of geological, geomorfological,
hydrological, hydrogeological and geochemical data allowed to evaluate
the hydrodynamic condition and the vulnerability to pollution of the aquifer system.
In a second phase, all data will be implemented by GIS thus assuring a good representation
of the spatial variability of environmental phenomenon

Going Beyond Counting First Authors in Author Co-citation Analysis
No full textThe present study examines one of the fundamental aspects of author co-citation analysis (ACA) - the way co-citation
counts are defined. Co-citation counting provides the data on which all subsequent statistical analyses and mappings
are based, and we compare ACA results based on two different types of co-citation counting - the traditional type that
only counts the first one among a cited work's authors on the one hand and a non-traditional type that takes into
account the first 5 authors of a cited work on the other hand. Results indicate that the picture produced through this non-traditional author co-citation counting contains more coherent author groups and is therefore considerably clearer. However, this picture represents fewer specialties in the research field being studied than that produced through the traditional first-author co-citation counting when the same number of top-ranked authors is selected and analyzed. Reasons for these effects are discussed
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
Využití sociálních médií v B2B prodeji
No full textTato diplomová práce se zabývá tím, jak mohou B2B obchodníci využívat sociální média v prodeji. Na základě systematické rešerše literatury, autor zjistil, že akademici, zkoumající danou problematiku, navrhují další výzkum, a to: v kterých konkrétních krocích se dají využít sociální média v prodeji (Salo, 2017). Autor se na základě toho rozhodl zjistit, jaké sociální sítě, různé technologie a pluginy se dají využít v B2B prodeji - tzv. social sellingu. Social selling se v této práci týká primárně procesu akvizice a okrajově péčí o stávající zákazníky. Autor si vybral kvalitativní průzkum pomocí 10 hloubkových polo-strukturovaných rozhovorů, aby odhalil jak, která sociální média to jsou, tak i motivaci prodejců, proč tato média používat/nepoužívat. Aby autor dodržel správnost vyhodnocení výsledků, data byla analyzována pomocí Tématické analýzy, která v této studii vykrystalizovala 2 hlavní strategické přístupy v social sellingu. Tyto přístupy (tzv. Push a Pull strategie) obsahují praktické příklady a konkrétní aktivity, které mohou prodejci využívat v každodenní praxi. Tyto výsledky jsou prezentovány s důrazem na praktičnost a jednoduchost implementace. Tvoří proto hlavní přínos autorovo výzkumu. V poslední části autor zmiňuje výzvy a manažerská doporučení, které mohou obchodníci využít v každodenním pracovním životě.This diploma thesis focuses on social media usage in B2B sales. Based on the systematic literature review conducted by the author, he has found out that recent researchers (Salo, 2017) suggest further research in the area of how and in which sales phase should various social networking sites, technologies and plugins used. To further fill this research gap, author decided to identify these social media and their usage among B2B salespeople in the so-called social selling process. The social selling process in this thesis applies mainly to acquiring new prospects and tangentially to taking care of existing clients (follow-up step). Author has chosen a qualitative research method via conducting 10 in-depth semi-structured interviews to reveal these instruments as well as motivation of a sales person on why to use social media in the selling process. The collected data was analyzed using Thematic analysis to ensure the right procedure and to identify main themes which crystalized into 2 main strategic approaches in social selling. These approaches (Push and Pull) include practical examples of concrete activities which sales people can use in their daily jobs and are presented with focus on practicality and ease of implementation. These also form the main contribution of author`s research. In the last part, author mentions challenges in social selling and recommended managerial implications for salesforce
TeX v jednoduchém unixovém prostředí
No full textsummary:Při ladění TeXového dokumentu potřebujeme mnohokrát opakovaně pouštět TeX, podívat se, jak dopadl výsledek v prohlížeči DVI nebo PDF souboru, mrknout na výpis TeXu na terminálu, podívat se případně do logu a celou činnost opakovat. V tomto článku je ukázáno, jak tuto práci dělá autor článku. Proces "editor-TeX-kuk" je zde podporován jednoduchými unixovými nástroji: bashovým skriptem texloop, který si autor pro tyto účely vytvořil, dále terminálem Xterm a jednoduchým editorem, který umí navázat na klávesovou zkratku spuštění příkazu v systému. Čtenář se zde může inspirovat a přizpůsobit tyto nástroje svým vlastním potřebám. V článku je popsána funkce skriptu texloop, dále je neformálně rozveden dlouholetý vývoj autorova vztahu k textovým editorům a konečně je zde uvedena konfigurace terminálu Xterm, aby vyhovoval českému prostředí jak v kódování ISO-8859-2, tak v kódování UTF-8. Pro kódování UTF-8 si v závěru článku vygenerujeme TeXový formát csplain.summary:By debugging a TeX document it is necessary many times repeatedly to run TeX, to look for the result in DVI or PDF file, to gander the TeX output on the terminal, or eventually to have a look in the log-file, and all that action to repeat. In the paper it is show, how this work is made by author. The process '‘'editor-TeX-look' is supported by simple Unix tools: bash script texloop, created by author for these purposes, Xterm terminal and a simple editor, which is able to link to the shortcut key the activation of a system command. The reader could be inspired with the solution and to adapt these tools to his/her own needs. In the paper the function of the texloop script is described, and further the longstanding evolution of the author's relation to text editors is informal elaborated and finally a configuration of Xterm terminal, suitable for the czech environment with both ISO-8859-2 and UTF-8 encoding is introduced. For UTF-8 encoding the TeX format csplain is generated at the end of the paper
Rio Quequén Grande basin (Argentina): impact of geological, environmental and human activities on water quality
No full textIn spite of the low urbanization and industrialization density of the Rio Quequén Grande basin, the socio-economical development of the last decades has produced a high environmental impact with a degradation of the water resources. This degradation is progressively increasing in intensity and expanding towards more internal zones of the basin. In the present research, we carried out a geochemical characterization of the superficial and underground water of Rio Quequén Grande basin. The Rio Quequén Grande drainage area is about 10.000 km2, located in the south-eastern sector of the Buenos Aires Province. It mainly consists of a flat environment of Quaternary aeolian
sediments and it flows into the Atlantic Ocean close to Necochea, the principal city within the area. The superficial waters of the principal fluvial branches and the groundwater of the Rio Quequén Grande basin have been sampled during the end of the 2001
and the beginning of the 2002. For the determination of the geochemical composition of the water resources samples from the superficial hydrographic network and wells
were collected and analysed in the laboratory. In particularly, a) electrical conductivity, temperature and pH have been measured in situ; b) Mg++, Ca++, Cl-, SO4- -and NO3-
anions and cations have been measured using spectrophotometer methods and c) Al, V, Cr, Mn, Fe, Co, Ni, Cu, Zn, Se, Mo, Ag, Cd, Pb, and U have been measured using a ICP-MS standard procedure. The integrated analysis of the obtained geochemical results allows us to infer the following: a) The geological setting has a strong influence on the water geochemical composition. b) The intense anthropogenic activity (predominantly
farming) heavily contribute to the environmental resource quality. c) The high-risk pollution zones have been recognised. In particular the water analyses show high variations of the physico-chemical characteristics. Also, near the river outlet, Cl
values of about 700 mg/l can be observed due to the intrusion of oceanic salty water.
d) In some of these locations a remarkably high concentration of toxic elements was found. Among those, the arsenic content reaches a concentration higher than 100 μg/l in the north-eastern sector of the hydrographic basin principally due to the lithological
composition of the Quaternary deposits locally rich in grains of volcanic origin
