O ambiente cultural e cientfico em Portugal nos primeiros anos do nosso sculo no era brilhante.A cultura cientfica e tcnica estavam perto da estagnao.As instituies que a elas se dedicavam eram escassas. As publicaes nesta rea eram tambm poucas e de qualidade vria. Uma das publicaes de maior longevidade era o Boletim de Obras Pblicas e Minas rgo da Associao dos Engeneheiros civis (que tambm congregava os engenheiros militares) e que tem hoje continuidade na Ordem dos Engenheiros.Uma anlise, ainda que breve, do Boletim de Obras Pblicas e Minas da primeira dcada do nosso sculo d-nos conta da quase inexistncia de inovaes cientficas e tcnicas produzidas por portugueses. E certo que so divulgadas as estrangeiras. Mas a discusso ao nvel interno, est ainda centrada na questo dos transportes, sobretudo dos Caminhos de Ferro.

El presente artculo es una investigacin histrica, y una lectura desde el mirador de la teora de los movimientos sociales, de la rebelin de los trabajadores de la hacienda Progreso de la isla San Cristbal (Chatham) en Galpagos. La hiptesis que gua este trabajo es saber si el sistema socio-econmico y de gobierno determinan o no el carcter violento de la accin colectiva. Se trata de un estudio de caso, para lo cual presentamos una aproximacin al sistema socio-econmico de la hacienda Progreso como forma social de produccin supeditada al modo de produccin capitalista, en el cual se inscribe la rebelin de Chatham. Seguidamente echamos mano del instrumental terico de los movimientos sociales para elaborar una interpretacin y exponer algunas reflexiones acerca de la violencia colectiva.

This article presents an analysis of British urban working-class housing conditions in 1904, using a rediscovered survey. We investigate overcrowding and find major regional differences. Scottish households in the survey were more overcrowded despite being less poor. Investigating the causes of this overcrowding, we find little support for supply-side theories or for the idea that the Scottish households in our survey experienced particularly great variations in income, causing them to commit to overly modest accommodation. We present evidence that is consistent with idea that particularly tough Scottish tenancy and local tax laws caused excess overcrowding. We also provide evidence that Scottish workers had a relatively high preference for food, rather than housing, expenditure, which can be at least partly attributed to their inheritance of more communal patterns of urban living.

This paper proposes a method for describing the distribution of observed temperatures on any day of the year such that the distribution and summary statistics of interest derived from the distribution vary smoothly through the year. The method removes the noise inherent in calculating summary statistics directly from the data thus easing comparisons of distributions and summary statistics between different periods. The method is demonstrated using daily effective temperatures (DET) derived from observations of temperature and wind speed at De Bilt, Holland. Distributions and summary statistics are obtained from 1985 to 2009 and compared to the period 19041984. A two-stage process first obtains parameters of a theoretical probability distribution, in this case the generalized extreme value (GEV) distribution, which describes the distribution of DET on any day of the year. Second, linear models describe seasonal variation in the parameters. Model predictions provide parameters of the GEV distribution, and therefore summary statistics, that vary smoothly through the year. There is evidence of an increasing mean temperature, a decrease in the variability in temperatures mainly in the winter and more positive skew, more warm days, in the summer. In the winter, the 2% point, the value below which 2% of observations are expected to fall, has risen by 1.2 C, in the summer the 98% point has risen by 0.8 C. Medians have risen by 1.1 and 0.9 C in winter and summer, respectively. The method can be used to describe distributions of future climate projections and other climate variables. Further extensions to the methodology are suggested.

This volume reports on the results of the Glastonbury Abbey Archaeological Archive Project, a collaboration between the University of Reading and the Trustees of Glastonbury Abbey, funded principally by the Arts and Humanities Research Council. The project has reassessed and reinterpreted all known archaeological records from the 190879 excavations and made the complete dataset available to the public through a digital archive hosted by the Archaeology Data Service (http://dx.doi.org/10.5284/1022585). The scope of the project has included the full analysis of the archaeological collections of Glastonbury Abbey by thirty-one leading specialists, including chemical and compositional analysis of glass and metal and petrological analysis of pottery and tile, and a comprehensive geophysical survey conducted by GSB Prospection Ltd. For the first time, it has been possible to achieve a framework of independent dating based on reassessment of the finds and radiocarbon dating of surviving organic material from the 1950s excavations. The principal aim of the Glastonbury Abbey Archaeological Project was to set aside previous assumptions based on the historical and legendary traditions and to provide a rigorous reassessment of the archive of antiquarian excavations. This research has revealed that some of the best known archaeological facts about Glastonbury are themselves myths perpetuated by the abbeys excavators.

The Winthrop yearbook was published from 1898 to 2002. It has been known as the Tatler since its inception except for 1904 (Lang Syne) and 1918 (Tatler a la Guerre). No yearbook was published in 1900, 1902, 1903, 1905,1906.

A presente dissertao utiliza o instrumental terico da Public Choice para analisar a poltica dos tributos indiretos proposta pelo Gov~rno Fernando Henrique Cardoso (1995/1998), enfatizando a interao e a motivao individual dos diversos agentes envolvidos no processo : polticos, burocratas, grupos de interesse, poder judicirio, grupos externos, cidado/ contribuinte. Como resultado dessa anlise, duas questes relevantes so levantadas : 1. a grande influncia do sistema eleitoral brasileiro na elaborao das normas tributrias; 2. a ausncia de uma proposta de aperfeioamento da administrao fazendria.

Os fenmenos da traduo, assim como vrios dos diversos percursos histricos e tericos apresentados ao longo da Histria sobre o tema, sero explicitados e discutidos. A avaliao comparatista de duas tradues de Moll Flanders, de autoria de Daniel Defoe, ser desenvolvida, levando-se em considerao as concepes mais atuais dos Estudos de Traduo, como a teoria da Reescritura de Andre Lefevere. Aspectos como o status do tradutor, assim como o sistema literrio do qual este provm, so fatores que tambm sero pertinentes s referidas anlises crticas.
