Esquivel! Space Age Sound Artist by S. Wood
No full textWood, Susan. Esquivel! Space Age Sound Artist, illustrated by Duncan Tonatiuh. Charlesbridge, 2016.This is a picture book that tells the story of Mexican composer, band leader and pianist, Juan Garcia Esquivel. “Esquivel!”, as he came to be known, came from a poor family and became a very popular and wealthy composer. He was a pioneer in sound art in the 1950s and 1960s, influencing many later composers of experimental music and sound art. The text is quite ordinary, factual material about the artist, with the exception of words representing sounds. These are often in bright colours, many shapes and sizes and different typefaces. The differing scripts sometimes make reading the sentences difficult. Some of the words and concepts are too high level for a picture book and most children at the picture book reading stage will not understand strange, weird and edgy music, so it is likely that this book will be most useful to older children. The artwork is the most interesting part of the book. The images are all done in black-line, with colour fill being photographs of textures or patterns. The other unusual part of the work is that Duncan Tonatiuh has drawn people in the style of ancient Mexican art, specifically the Mixtec codex. Because this art predates the concept of perspective, all of the images are two dimensional and do not have depth. Also all of the faces are drawn in the style of the ancient artworks. The faces are all in profile with ears shaped like the number 3, pointy mouths and very flat forehead to nose profiles. These sorts of details, while interesting to adults, will be lost on small children.The music message of this book is historical, highlighting Esquivel!’s early contributions to sound art. The work also makes the point that Esquivel! had no formal musical training, showing that music is for everyone. Because there is little written about this Esquivel! at a children’s reading level this book should be bought for public libraries and school libraries.Highly Recommended: 3 stars out of 4Reviewer: Sean BorleSean Borle is a University of Alberta undergraduate student who is an advocate for child health and safety. </jats:p

Los años leoneses de Toribio Esquivel Obregón: del partidario a opositor del régimen porfirista, 1864-1911
No full textBy means of a wide research on archive sources, the author analyzes the events around Toribio ́s Esquivel political career at León, Guanajuato. Esquivel, who was initially connected to the regime of Porfirio Díaz, turned to political opposition afterward. First of all Esquivel became against the Científicos And then he joined to the Centro Antirreeleccionista de México as a vice president. The paper also examines some difficulties opposed to a liberal-positivist in those cities where the power of Church was dominant and widespreadCon base en una amplia información de archivo, la autora analiza las vicisitudes de la carrera política de Toribio Esquivel Obregón en León, Guanajuato. Ligado en sus inicios al régimen de Porfirio Díaz, el personaje transita hacia el campo de la oposición política. En un primer momento se enfrenta al grupo de los Científicos para luego incorporarse como vicepresidente del Centro Antirreeleccionista de México. El artículo muestra también las dificultades de un liberal-positivista que intenta hacer carrera en el sector público, en ciudades donde la presencia de la Iglesia era dominante y extendidaUniversidad Nacional Autónoma de México.

A hoard of imperial denarii from S. Maria del Paggese (Acquasanta Terme, Ascoli Piceno)
No full textThe examination of archival documents from the Gabrielli Fund in Ascoli Piceno revealed new information about a hoard of about 275 denarii. The find, discovered in 1883 in the locality of S. Maria del Paggese (today S. Maria di Acquasanta Terme), belongs to the Severan period. The hoard was sold by the owners a year after its discovery. However, thanks to a nineteenth-century notebook, it has been possible to piece together about half of its contents. Twenty denarii from the hoard, described in the manuscript, were purchased by Giulio Gabrielli and are today within the Civic Numismatics Collection of Ascoli Piceno

Isomaltulose: The Next Sweetener, A Quick Review
No full textThe social behavior of new generations consume highly processed foods and high levels of fat and sugar, such as glucose or high-fructose syrup (corn syrup), commonly used in the manufacture of hard candies, have generated a growing increase in cases of diabetes and nutrition problems. In this context, we present the isomaltulose as a substitute potential for sweeteners, due to its property of maintaining stable glycemic levels, dosing energy to the organism in a long-term way, promoting the fat oxidation and it is a noncariogenic food. There is just one company that distributes isomaltulose in an industry level, under the name of Palatinose™ (Beneo-Palatinti, Sudzücker Group, Mannheim, Germany) and already incorporated isomaltulose products in the food processing as beverage, bakery, energy drinks, dry-powder drinks, chewing gum, hard candies, and others. But it is necessary to produce quantities of isomaltulose that will supply the demand of the food industry. The latest advances in biotechnology provide tools to efficiently produce 278any product that may result from the metabolism of micro-organisms. But first, it is important to know the global aspects of the enzyme, the reaction that catalyzes and its products to determine their chemical and biological parameters. This work aims to make a quick review of all these aspects that allow us to understand and start the biotechnological path for the design and development of future foods based on isomaltulose.Fil: Bracho Oliveros, Juan Pablo.
