Identifying observable criteria defining a critical situation involving football fans: an expert focus group study

Critical situations (CSs) involving football fans is a well-researched phenomenon with most studies examining factors leading to an escalation of violence (e.g. Braun & Vliegenthart, 2008). However, research so far has fallen short of analysing CSs that do not escalate (e.g. Hylander & Guvå, 2010) as well as establishing observable criteria that constitute such CSs. Granström et al. (2009), for instance, put forward a definition of a CS describing such situations as characterised by a discrepancy between peace and war-making behaviours between police and demonstrators. Still, this definition remains vague and does not provide concrete, defining criteria that can be identified on site. The present study looks beyond fans’ violent acts per se and focuses on these situations with a potentially – but not necessarily - violent outcome. The aim of this preliminary study is to identify observable criteria defining such a CS involving football fans. This focus group comprised of five experts working with football fans in the German-speaking area of Switzerland who discussed observable characteristics of a CS. Inductive content analysis led to the identification of specific criteria such as, “arrest of a fan”, “insufficient distance (<30m) between fans and police” and “fans mask themselves”. These criteria were then assigned to four phases of a CS highlighting the dynamic aspect of this phenomenon: Antecedents, Causes, Reactions, Consequence. Specifically, Causes, Reactions and Consequences are observable on site, while Antecedents include relevant, background information directly influencing a CS. This study puts forward a working definition of a CS that can facilitate the assessment of actual situations in the football context as well as for further research on fan violence prevention and control. These results also highlight similarities with studies investigating fan violence in other European countries while acknowledging unique characteristics of the Swiss German fan culture.

Durazneros bajo tela antigranizo : efectos sobre la madurez y calidad

Para evaluar la influencia de la tela antigranizo sobre la calidad de duraznos para industria cv. Dr. Davis en dos fechas de cosecha se determinó la madurez y calidad de frutos de plantas testigo y bajo tela antigranizo. Los parámetros medidos fueron peso, intensidad de color de piel y de pulpa, firmeza de pulpa, contenido de sólidos solubles (CSS), acidez titulable (AT) y relación CSS/AT. La tela antigranizo no afectó el peso de los frutos. En cambio retrasó su maduración y disminuyó su calidad. El color de piel y pulpa, el CSS y la relación CSS/AT fueron menores en las plantas bajo tela antigranizo pero, en sus frutos, la firmeza de pulpa fue mayor.

Ciruelas bajo tela antigranizo : : efecto sobre la calidad

Se evaluó la influencia de la tela antigranizo en la calidad en cosecha y postcosecha de ciruelas japonesas (Prunus salicina Lindl.) cv. Angeleno. Se cosechó fruta de plantas bajo tela y sin tela en dos fechas. Las determinaciones de madurez y calidad se hicieron en cosecha, después de 45 y 60 días de almacenamiento refrigerado (0 °C y HR = 85 %) y luego de un período de maduración a 20 °C. Parámetros considerados: tamaño, color, firmeza de pulpa, contenido de sólidos solubles, pH, acidez titulable, relación CSS/AT, deshidratación y desórdenes fisiológicos (harinosidad). Se realizó un análisis factorial teniendo en cuenta tela antigranizo (T), fecha de cosecha (F) y período de almacenamiento refrigerado (P). Los factores T y F actuaron sobre el tamaño, color de piel, firmeza de pulpa, CSS, AT y CSS/AT en las evaluaciones realizadas en cosecha. Después del período de maduración, los factores T, F y P tuvieron principalmente efecto en la firmeza de pulpa, AT y CSS/AT. La fecha de cosecha y el período de almacenamiento tuvieron una marcada influencia sobre la incidencia de harinosidad.

Ciruela japonesa : : parámetros de madurez y calidad

Durante la maduración de frutos de ciruela japonesa [Prunus salicina (Lindl.)] cv. Black Amber, Laroda y Angeleno se evaluaron parámetros de madurez y calidad. Semanalmente se midió la intensidad de color superior de la piel y porcentaje de cubrimiento; firmeza de pulpa; sólidos solubles (CSS) y acidez titulable (AT). Para cada parámetro se ajustó un modelo matemático de correlación con la variable tiempo. El color se desarrolló temprano durante la maduración en Black Amber y Angeleno. La firmeza de pulpa disminuyó a velocidad constante. El ablandamiento en Angeleno fue lento (0,16 lb/día) y rápido, en Black Amber (0,36 lb/día) y Laroda (0,26 lb/día). El incremento de sólidos solubles fue escaso en Black Amber y mayor en cv. Laroda y Angeleno.

La tela antigranizo en la maduración de ciruelas japonesas : : Prunus salicina Lindl

Se evaluó el efecto de la tela antigranizo sobre la evolución de la maduración de las cv. Linda Rosa y Larry Ann de ciruelo japonés. Periódicamente se cosechó fruta de plantas uniformes: ambas situaciones bajo tela y sin protección. Los parámetros de madurez y calidad evaluados fueron: peso, diámetros, color de piel, firmeza de pulpa, contenido de sólidos solubles (CSS), acidez titulable (AT) y la relación CSS/AT. La tela afectó la calidad de los frutos. El contenido de solubles y el color piel de la cv. Linda Rosa y el tamaño de frutos de la cv. Larry Ann, atributos de calidad muy valorados, fueron menores en las plantas bajo tela.

Evaluación de características de interés agronómico de damascos cv. Modesto

El cultivar de damascos Modesto es de introducción relativamente reciente en Mendoza (Argentina). El objetivo del trabajo fue evaluar las siguientes características de interés agronómico: la época de floración y la calidad de los frutos en cosecha y en postcosecha. El estudio se realizó en un monte comercial durante 2007 y 2008. Se registraron tres estados fenológicos: "D" (corola visible), "F" (flor abierta) y "H" (fruto cuajado). Se estableció el inicio de la floración, la plena floración y el fin de la misma. En los frutos las evaluaciones y mediciones se realizaron en el momento de la recolección y después del período de maduración de la fruta conservada en cámara frigorífica. Se determinó: color de fondo, peso, diámetro, firmeza de pulpa, contenido de sólidos solubles, pH, acidez titulable, presencia de hongos y desórdenes fisiológicos. Los resultados muestran que el cultivar Modesto florece en una época intermedia en la zona E de la provincia de Mendoza. La fecha de plena floración en los dos años del estudio fue el 8 de setiembre. En los estados de madurez evaluados los frutos reúnen los atributos de calidad demandados por el consumidor: alto CSS, color anaranjado en la madurez, buena firmeza de pulpa; sin embargo, el rápido, descenso de la firmeza durante la maduración en poscosecha obliga a una comercialización acelerada. Después del almacenamiento en cámara frigorífica durante treinta días y un período de maduración de dos días, la futa presentó el desorden harinosidad con una incidencia superior al 60%; esto señala que el cv. Modesto no puede almacenarse por un período tan prolongado.

Pore water geochemistry of Håkon Mosby mud volcano sediments measured at station PS74/169-1_PUC-15 (Z1-S1, new flow surface)

Pore water and turnover rates were determined for surface sediment cores obtained in 2009 and 2010. The pore water was extracted with Rhizons (Rhizon CSS: length 5 cm, pore diameter 0.15 µm; Rhizosphere Research Products, Wageningen, Netherlands) in 1 cm-resolution and immediately fixed in 5% zinc acetate (ZnAc) solution for sulfate, and sulfide analyses. The samples were diluted, filtered and the concentrations measured with non-suppressed anion exchange chromatography (Waters IC-Pak anion exchange column, waters 430 conductivity detector). The total sulfide concentrations (H2S + HS- + S**2-) were determined using the diamine complexation method (doi:10.4319/lo.1969.14.3.0454). Samples for dissolved inorganic carbon (DIC) and alkalinity measurements were preserved by adding 2 µl saturated mercury chloride (HgCl2) solution and stored headspace-free in gas-tight glass vials. DIC and alkalinity were measured using the flow injection method (detector VWR scientific model 1054) (doi:10.4319/lo.1992.37.5.1113). Dissolved sulfide was eliminated prior to the DIC measurement by adding 0.5 M molybdate solution (doi:10.4319/lo.1995.40.5.1011). Nutrient subsamples (10 - 15 ml) were stored at - 20 °C prior to concentration measurements with a Skalar Continuous-Flow Analyzer (doi:10.1002/9783527613984).

Las presentaciones de trabajo en lengua inglesa: una propuesta de curso on-line.

Desde la explosión de crecimiento de internet que comenzó en los años 90, se han ido creando y poniendo a disposición de los usuarios diversas herramientas para compartir información y servicios de diversas formas, desde el nacimiento del primer navegador hasta nuestros días, donde hay infinidad de lenguajes aplicables al ámbito web. En esta fase de crecimiento, en primer lugar, de cara a usuarios individuales, saldrían herramientas que permitirían a cada cual hacer su web personal, con sus contenidos expuestos. Más adelante se fue generando el fenómeno “comunidad”, con, por ejemplo, foros, o webs en las que había múltiples usuarios que disfrutaban de contenidos o servicios que la web ofreciese. Este crecimiento del mundo web en lo comunitario ha avanzado en muchas ramas,entre ellas, por supuesto, la educacional, surgiendo plataformas como la que es base del proyecto que a continuación se presenta, y herramienta básica y prácticamente ya imprescindible en la enseñanza universitaria: Moodle. Moodle es una herramienta diseñada para compatir recursos y diseñar actividades para el usuario potencial, complementando su aprendizaje en aula, o incluso siendo una vía autónoma de aprendizaje en sí misma. Se ha realizado un estudio sobre el estado de saludo de los contenidos que se exponen en Moodle, y se ha encontrado que una gran mayoría de los cursos que se pueden visitar tienen un gran número de carencias. Por un lado, hay pocos con material original explotado exclusivamente para el curso, y, si tienen material original, no se ha observado una especial atención por la maquetación. Por otro lado, hay muchos otros sin material original, y, en ambos casos, no se ha encontrado ningún curso que ofrezca material audiovisual exclusivo para el curso, presentando algunos en su lugar material audiovisual encontrado en la red (Youtube, etc). A la vista de estos hechos, se ha realizado un proyecto que intenta aportar soluciones ante estas carencias, y se presenta un curso procedente de diversas referencias bibliográficas, para la parte textual, y material audiovisual original e inédito que también se ha explotado específicamente para este curso. Este material ha sido por un lado vídeo, que se ha visionado, editado y subtitulado con software de libre distribución, y por otro lado, audio, que complementa un completo glosario que se ha añadido como extra al curso y cuyo planteamiento no se ha encontrado en ningún curso online de los revisados. Todo esto se ha envuelto en una maquetación cuidada que ha sido fruto del estudio de los lenguajes web html y CSS, de forma que, por un lado, el curso sea un lugar agradable en el que aprender dentro de internet, y por otro, se pudiesen realizar ciertas operaciones que sin estos conocimientos habrían sido imposibles, como la realización del glosario o la incrustación de imágenes y vídeos. A su vez, se ha tratado de dar un enfoque didáctico a toda la memoria del proyecto, de forma que pueda ser de utilidad a un usuario futuro que quisiese profundizar en los usos de Moodle, introducirse en el lenguaje web, o introducirse en el mundo de la edición de vídeo. ABSTRACT: Since the explosion of Internet growth beginning in the 90s, many tools have been created and made available for users to share information and services in various ways, from the birth of the first browser until today, where there are plenty of web programming languages. This growth stage would give individual users tools that would allow everyone to make an own personal website, with their contents exposed. Later, the "community" phenomenon appeared with, for example, forums, or websites where multiple users enjoyed the content or web services that those websites offered. Also, this growth in the web community world has progressed in many fields, including education, with the emerge of platforms such as the one that this project uses as its basis, and which is the basic and imperative tool in college education: Moodle. Moodle is a tool designed to share resources and design activities for the potential user, completing class learning, or even letting this user learn in an autonomous way. In this project a study on the current situation of the content present in Moodle courses around the net has been carried out, and it has been found that most of them lack of original material exploited exclusively for the courses, and if they have original material, there has been not observed concern on the layout where that material lies. On the other hand, there are many other with non original material, and in both cases, there has not been found any course that offers audio- visual material made specifically for the course, instead of presenting some audiovisual material found on the net (Youtube, etc). In view of these facts, the project presented here seeks to provide solutions to these shortcomings, presenting a course with original material exploited from various references, and unpublished audioevisual material which also has been exploited specifically for this course. This material is, on one hand, video, which has been viewed, edited and subtitled with free software, and on the other, audio, which complements a comprehensive glossary that has been added as an extra feature to the course and whose approach was not found in any of the online courses reviewed. All of this has been packaged in a neat layout that has been the result of the study of web languages HTML and CSS, so that first, the course was a pleasant place to learn on the internet, and second, certain operations could be performed which without this knowledge would have been impossible, as the glossary design or embedding images and videos. Furthermore, a didactic approach has been adopted to the entire project memory, so it can be useful to a future user who wanted to go deeper on the uses of Moodle, containing an intro into the web language, or in the world video editing.
