K-Rb-Tl relationship in some gneissic rocks
No full text Granitic and associated metamorphic rocks of Precambrian
age in southeastern Ontario, Canada have been studied in order to
determine the relationship of K, Rb and Tl and their behaviour
during the process of partial melting and magmatic differentiation
and metasomatism. Analytical results for major elements and rubidium and
thallium abundances for 52 samples are given. From the present data, it appears possible that the series of migmatite and granodiorite gneiss originated by partial
melting of paragneiss, together with pink granite which developed
by late magmatic processes from a granodiorite melt, as was
proposed by Chesworth (1967). Consideration of the geochemical data shows that the
principal aspects of the distribution of Rb and Tl during partial
melting are controlled by the mineralogical composition of the
residuum which remains after partial melting. If mica is present
in the residuum a newly-formed melt could have higher or the same
K/Rb, K/Tl and Rb/Tl ratios as the parent rock and thus the
"classical rule" of lower K/Rb and K/Tl in the anatectic melt
is not valid. Enrichment of Tl in rocks affected by metasomatic
processes is demonstrated. The marked decrease of K/Tl and Rb/Tl in the contact rocks (calc-silicate marbles) is caused by
stronger migration of Tl, relative to K and Rb, from the intruded
pink granite. The high mobility of thallium compounds is an
important factor in the distribution of Tl during metasomatic
and magmatogenic processes. ThesisMaster of Science (MSc

Passive surface drifter data in the bay of Sept-Îles in 2003
No full textLagrangian drift data were gathered by Denis Lefaivre in the Bay of Sept-Îles in 2003 as part of work for the Department of Fisheries and Oceans, Canada (DFO). The drifters were deployed from the small DFO boat Barachois, and consisted of 2 m long by 10.16 cm wide PVC tubes. These were weighted on one end and affixed with a 22.86 cm ring 20 cm from the other, to increase stability. Positions were recorded every 2 minutes by a GPS emitter inside the top 20 cm of the tube, which remained above water. Sampling was done from September 9 to 11, 2003
Shaw et la scène française
No full textPlutôt que de spéculer sur la défaveur de Shaw aujourd’hui, je voudrais dans ces quelques lignes faire l’historique de la question. Autrement dit, remonter aux premières rencontres de Shaw et de son théâtre avec la mise en scène française et reconstituer l’évolution de ces médiations pendant près d’un siècle. Une évolution déployée en trois temps : une phase d’observation ponctuée de vaines querelles et de rares réalisations, une période favorable due aux Pitoëff et correspondant à l’entre-de..
George Bernard Shaw, un dramaturge engagé
No full textBrennan, Paul (1939-2003) / ISBN numérique : 978-2-84133-460-5 (2013).International audienceFigure marquante du théâtre de langue anglaise, George Bernard Shaw suscite de nouveau l’intérêt en France après avoir été quelque peu oublié depuis sa mort. La désaffection passagère pour son théâtre s’expliquait sans doute par la prédominance d’un cliché qui voudrait qu’humour et futilité soient indissociables. Cet ouvrage, en offrant une série de regards croisés sur l’œuvre, tente de lever quelques malentendus, sans négliger la spécificité théâtrale de ses écrits. En outre, il donne indirectement la parole à l’auteur, dans son rôle de critique cette fois. Des comptes rendus, consacrés à Ibsen, Maeterlinck, Rostand ou Musset - qui furent publiés à l’origine dans la Saturday Review - permettront de situer George Bernard Shaw dans un domaine qui dépasse son œuvre dramatique personnelle, en montrant que sa contribution à l’histoire du théâtre passait également par un rôle essentiel, celui d’un critique éclairé qui vivait le théâtre avec passion.Sommaire : Introduction/Paul Brennan, Thierry Dubost.Bernad Shaw dramaturge/Jean-Claude Amalric.George Bernard Shaw, homme de théâtre et socialiste/Josette Hérou.L'Irlande de Shaw/Paul Brennan.La redécouverte de la pauvreté à Londres à la fin du XIXe siècle/Jacques Carré.Instinct et intellect dans L'Homme et le Surhomme/Brigitte Gauthier.Une saison en enfer: L'Autre Ile de John Bull ou la dramaturgie du malentendu/Alexandra Poulain.Les voies de la vérité dans Milliards flottants/Thierry Dubost.Shaw et la scène française/Gérard-Denis Farcy.Traddutore, Traditore ?

Is Tolerance Political? An Interview with Denis Lacorne
No full textcontribution à un site webDenis Lacorne is the author of "The Limits of Tolerance. Enlightenment Values and Religious Fanaticism" (Columbia University Press, 2019), the English translation of "Les limites de la tolérance" (Gallimard, awarded the Prix Montyon by the Académie Française). In his book, which is intellectually very inspiring because of the many questions it addresses and raises, Denis Lacorne traces the emergence of the notion of tolerance from its early thinkers to the Age of Enlightenment and finally questions the notion and its various understandings through more recent events in France and the United States. What is tolerance? Is tolerance political? Interview by Miriam Périer, CER
Hyposoter sicarius Galsworthy & Shaw & Haraldseide 2023
No full textHyposoter sicarius (Gravenhorst, 1829) Campoplex sicarius Gravenhorst, 1829: holotype ♀ in ZMHB, examined by Horstmann. We have seen a specimen from Germany identified by Horstmann as sicarius by comparison with the type. The species is readily identifiable by the unusual structure of the genal carina, which disappears completely at a level well above the bottom of the eye, and a long way before it would join the hypostomal carina. Sternites 2–4 are uniform bright orange, similar to the tergites. There is an early record (Rudow, 1917) of rearing from Panolis flammea (Denis & Schifferm̧ller) (Lepidoptera, Noctuidae), but this is of doubtful reliability. The type is from Germany and we have seen specimens only from that country. There are published records of the species from many European countries from France to Russia, but possible confusion with H. dubitatus (q.v.) makes these particularly unreliable.Published as part of Galsworthy, Anthony, Shaw, Mark R. & Haraldseide, Håkon, 2023, A key to European species of Hyposoter Förster, 1869 (Ichneumonidae: Campopleginae) with descriptions of 18 new species, and notes on all included species, pp. 1-73 in Zootaxa 5290 (1) on page 67, DOI: 10.11646/zootaxa.5290.1.1, http://zenodo.org/record/795925
Timing of impulses from the central amygdala and bed nucleus of the stria terminalis to the brainstem
No full textThe amygdala and bed nucleus of the stria terminalis (BNST) are thought to subserve distinct functions with the former mediating rapid fear responses to discrete sensory cues and the latter longer “anxiety-like” states in response to diffuse environmental contingencies. Yet, these structures are reciprocally connected and their projection sites overlap extensively. To shed light on the significance of BNST-amygdala connections, we compared the antidromic response latencies of BNST and central amygdala (CE) neurons to brainstem stimulation. Whereas the frequency distribution of latencies was unimodal in BNST neurons (~10 ms mode), that of CE neurons was bimodal (~10 and ~30 ms modes). However, after stria terminalis (ST) lesions, only short-latency antidromic responses were observed, suggesting that CE axons with long conduction times course through the ST. Compared to the direct route, the ST greatly lengthens the path of CE axons to the brainstem, an apparently disadvantageous arrangement. Since BNST and CE share major excitatory basolateral amygdala (BL) inputs, lengthening the path of CE axons might allow synchronization of BNST and CE impulses to brainstem when activated by BL. To test this, we applied electrical BL stimuli and compared orthodromic response latencies in CE and BNST neurons. The latency difference between CE and BNST neurons to BL stimuli approximated that seen between the antidromic responses of BNST cells and CE neurons with long-conduction times. These results point to a hitherto unsuspected level of temporal coordination between the inputs and outputs of CE and BNST neurons, supporting the idea of shared functions.The original publication is available at: http://jn.physiology.org/cgi/content/full/100/6/342
