Larval development of the pedunculate barnacles Octolasmis angulata Aurivillius 1894 and Octolasmis cor Aurivillius 1892 (Cirripedia: Thoracica: Poecilasmatidae) from the gills of the mud crab, Scylla tranquebarica Fabricius, 1798

Detailed studies of larval development of Octolasmis angulata and Octolasmis cor are pivotal in understanding the larval morphological evolution as well as enhancing the functional ecology. Six planktotrophic naupliar stages and one non-feeding cyprid stage are documented in details for the first time for the two species of Octolasmis. Morphologically, the larvae of O. angulata and O. cor are similar in body size, setation patterns on the naupliar appendages, labrum, dorsal setae-pores, frontal horns, cyprid carapace, fronto-lateral gland pores, and lattice organs. Numbers of peculiarities were observed on the gnathobases of the antennae and mandible throughout the naupliar life-cycle. The setation pattern on the naupliar appendages are classified based on the segmentation on the naupliar appendages. The nauplius VI of both species undergoes a conspicuous change before metamorphosis into cyprid stage. The cyprid structures begin to form and modify beneath the naupliar body towards the end of stage VI. This study emphasises the importance of the pedunculate barnacle larval developmental studies not only to comprehend the larval morphological evolution but also to fill in the gaps in understanding the modification of the naupliar structures to adapt into the cyprid life-style.

Stable standard essential for prosperity. Speech in the Senate of the United States, February 4, 1878

This speech was given when the United States Senate was considering a bill to authorize the free coinage of the standard silver dollar and to restore its legal tender character.

The Greatest lover: a post-colonial rewriting of My Fair Lady

INTRODUCTION The popular Hong Kong comedy, The Greatest Lover, re-incarnates one of the most popular western musicals, My Fair Lady. OBJECTIVES 1. To find out in what major ways My Fair Lady was rewritten as the Hong Kong Cantonese movie, Gungzi Docing (The Greatest Lover). 2. To find out the socio-political, socio-linguistic, and gender ideology behind the rewriting. METHODOLOGY 1. To note the similarity of the themes for both works – a creator falling in love with his/her creation, and class prejudice and cross-class romance. 2. To note how the times of The Greatest Lover differ from that of My Fair Lady. 3. To note how the main characters in The Greatest Lover differ from My Fair Lady in terms of profession, gender, etc. 4. To note how the plot of The Greatest Lover differs from that of My Fair Lady. 5. To note how focus on language in The Greatest Lover compares with that in My Fair Lady. 6. To discuss the ideological implications of the differences noted above, e.g. women in Hong Kong today have much higher status than women in Victorian England; the conflict between local Hong Kong people and both legal and illegal immigrants from Mainland China is even more serious than that between the British upper middle class and the lower class during the Victorian period. 7. Andre Lefevere (1992) argues that translation and adaptation are rewriting informed and influenced by the rewriter’s ideology, among other things. 8. Both Aline Remael (1995) and Patrick Cattrysse (1992) think that film adaptation is a kind of translation. 9. Sirkkus Aaltonen (2000) argues that drama translation mirrors the ideologies of the target society. CONCLUSION 1. The Greatest Lover projects local cultural significance onto My Fair Lady by helping us to appreciate an important Western work of art through the Hong Kong Cantonese perspective. 2. Broader issues in translation and intercultural studies are also considered.

O bairro de Campo de Ourique: projectos e actuações (1878-1958)

Entre a década de 70 do século XIX e a primeira década do século XX, Lisboa está em constante transformação, decorrente da concretização de uma série de operações urbanísticas que conduziram a uma modificação da sua fisionomia e à ampliação da sua área urbanizada. O programa de melhoramentos materiais para a capital, ensaiado desde a década de 60 do século XIX, e fomentado por um plano de regeneração nacional, encontrava na intervenção urbanística o meio para a requalificação e modernização da cidade. Problemas como a inexistência de saneamento básico, ou uma oferta escassa de habitações em termos qualitativos e quantitativos, punham em causa o ambiente urbano e as condições de habitabilidade da população, revelando-se urgente a sua resolução. O mesmo programa procurava expandir o conceito de cidade até aos limites do perímetro urbano, apostando nos princípios da comunicação e circulação. Lisboa ficaria, deste modo, ao nível das mais modernas capitais e cidades europeias. O projecto de um bairro para a zona de Campo de Ourique, uma área marcadamente rural, a Nordeste do centro da capital, aprovado em Novembro de 1878, constituiu uma das primeiras iniciativas da Repartição Técnica da Câmara Municipal de Lisboa no âmbito da nova estratégia urbana para a cidade. É este o cenário e o ponto de partida para a presente Dissertação de Mestrado, através da qual nos propusemos estudar o projecto urbanístico do bairro de Campo de Ourique, procurando entender-se os objectivos desta iniciativa, a sua concepção, planeamento e execução, no âmbito da recente política urbanística. Planeado no âmbito de uma conjuntura económica, social e administrativa de grande especificidade, procuramos ainda entender de que forma esta influenciou o modo de actuação da Câmara Municipal e dos agentes que com ela colaboraram.
