Representações identitárias e projeção internacional : a diplomacia cultural brasileira (2003-2009)

Neste trabalho, propomos uma análise sobre as estratégias de rearticulação identitária do Brasil na primeira década do século XXI, tendo em vista a projeção internacional do país via Diplomacia Cultural. Para tanto, definimos como objeto de nossa análise as relações entre o Brasil e a França, a partir de dois eventos principais: (i) O ano do Brasil na França e (ii) o Ano da França no Brasil. A partir das contribuições teórico-metodológicas originárias da vertente francesa sobre a História Cultural, bem como da Escola Inglesa de Relações Internacionais e do campo da Historiografia das Relações Culturais Internacionais, buscamos verificar como a Diplomacia Cultural, no caso brasileiro, deve ser compreendida enquanto uma política de governo, favorecida pelo ethos articulado e disponibilizado do país e de seus representantes em alguns momentos de sua história – em nosso caso, durante o governo de Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva (2003-2010). Nesse sentido, buscamos perceber como a discursividade sobre múltiplas identidades brasileiras se insere nesse contexto enquanto mecanismo de projeção do Brasil no cenário internacional.

Genetic analysis of visual scores and their relationships to mature female weight in Nellore breed

Dados de 79.884 animais da raça Nelore foram utilizados para estimar parâmetros genéticos e avaliar as relações entre os escores de conformação, precocidade e musculatura obtidos à desmama e ao sobreano e o peso das fêmeas à idade adulta. Utilizou-se o método da máxima verossimilhança restrita, em análise multicaracterísticas, com modelo que incluiu os efeitos genéticos aditivos direto e residual, como aleatórios, e os efeitos fixos de grupo de contemporâneos e, como covariáveis, a idade do animal à pesagem e a idade da mãe ao parto (exceto para o peso das fêmeas à idade adulta). Os grupos contemporâneos à desmama foram definidos pelas variáveis: sexo, rebanho, ano e mês de nascimento, grupo de manejo ao nascimento e à desmama. Na definição de grupo contemporâneo ao sobreano também foi incluída a variável grupo de manejo ao sobreano. Para o peso das fêmeas à idade adulta, o grupo de contemporâneos foi composto por rebanho, ano de nascimento, grupo de manejo ao sobreano, ano e estação da pesagem. Os efeitos genético materno e de ambiente permanente materno também foram incluídos no modelo para análise dos escores de conformação, precocidade e musculatura à desmama. As estimativas de herdabilidade direta obtidas foram 0,18 ± 0,02 para o escore de conformação; 0,21 ± 0,01 para o escore de precocidade; 0,22 ± 0,01 para o escore de musculatura à desmama e 0,24 ± 0,01 para o escore de conformação; 0,27 ± 0,01 para o escore de precocidade; e 0,26 ± 0,01 para o escore de musculatura ao sobreano e 0,42 ± 0,02 para o peso das fêmeas à idade adulta. As correlações genéticas estimadas entre os escores visuais medidos à desmama e ao sobreano foram positivas, variando de média a alta magnitude (0,56 ± 0,03 a 0,85 ± 0,01). Por outro lado, as correlações genéticas estimadas entre os escores visuais e o peso das fêmeas à idade adulta foram positivas e moderadas, variando de 0,21 ± 0,03 a 0,35 ± 0,03. Os resultados obtidos indicam que a seleção de animais com maiores escores visuais, principalmente ao sobreano, deve promover aumento do peso das fêmeas à idade adulta.

Efeito de glyphosate sobre características produtivas em cultivares de soja transgênica e convencional

The aim of this work was to evaluate the grain yield of two soybean cultivars (CD-216 and CD-212RR, divided into three stages: (i) to evaluate the effect of components of production, of simulated drift of glyphosate throught subdoses (1,3; 2,6; 5,3; 11,5 and 22,5 g e. a. ha(-1)) of two cultivars; (ii) to evaluate the influence of glyphosate (720; 1080; 1440 and 1800 g e. a. ha(-1)) in the transgenic soybean yield The experiments carried out in experimental area in the school farm of Uniderp, city of Dorados, MS ina typical Rhodic Haplustox. The experimental design used was in blocks to perhaps The parameters were: heigh oh the pln\ant, number of pods per plants, number of seeds per pod, masss of 100 grains, grain yield (%) of germination, dry mass of seedling, the lengh of radical and air part. The cultivate CD-212RR was not influenced by the subdoses application of glyphosate. Effect of growth stimulus was not observerd due to application of glyphosate subdoses in both cultivars in field conditions. Doses from 11,25 g e. a. ha(-1) caused60 of phytotoxicity in CD-216, at 28 DAA reduce production by 33%. The height and number of pods per plant of cultivar CD-212RR have been reduced and productivity decrease 21% with the application of 1.800 g e.a.ha(-1) of glyphosate.

Síndrome de Berardinelli :territorialidade e imaginário

The Syndrome of Berardinelli or Congenital Generalized Lipodystrophy, known popularly in Seridó as "The Magicians", it is considered in the world as a rare syndrome and of few studies. In Rio Grande do Norte, specifically, in the Area of Seridó, an important incidence of bearers was verified. Face to present subject, this work describes in beginning the origin and evolution of the referred syndrome, standing out the genealogy of the families of the bearers in the temporary cutting that dates of the beginning of the century XIX to the current days and, later, it s has as purpose to justify the territorialities and the imaginary of the Syndrome and Berardinelli starting from the lived experiences, of the conidian and of the social practices. That implicates to verify as those people they fragmented certain places, like them they noticed her and they were noticed by the society. The methodological approach for the accomplishment of that research is of qualitative order in a perspective phenomenological, ethnography and historical, once the analysis is not just ruled in the product, but it takes in consideration the life history. The analysis presents the way as the depositions they make sense in the context of the study of the genealogy, of the perception imagery of the society before them and the image constituted by them, of himself and of the other. The data, still, demonstrate that the a lot of people's existence with to Syndrome in Seridó happens due to the consanguinities among the families

O circuito espacial da indústria de cerâmica vermelha no seridó potiguar

This research has as an empirical universe, the productive territory of red ware in the Seridó region of Rio Grande do Norte. In the last years this territory has gone through a process of appropriation that has been substantially changing the environmental and social dynamism of the place. However, the industry of red ware has been focusing in some areas, mainly, in the county of Parelhas and Carnaúba dos Dantas. From this point of view, the aim of this work consists in analyze the use of these areas by the red ware industry and the transformations occurred with the expansion of the number of industries and the productivity raise, that requires bigger amounts of earthenware and wood, resources that are low in referred territory. As the result of this process, the suitable alternative has been to acquire inputs in other Rio Grande do Norte counties, as well as in Paraíba counties. To reach the proposed objective, the methodology of this work was consisted of bibliographic and empirical research, regarding the occupation that this activity covers in the Seridó region. From the information obtained during the research, it can be stated that the inputs to the production execution in the red ware industry are acquired in the geographic nearby lands. The analysis of the stages of the production(acquisition of raw material, production and commercialization) showed that the activity acts in a continuous area, having as principal consumer market other northeastern states and the state of Pará. The present study revealed that the pottery activity is set as untenable, because of non-stopping use of the argil and wood, resources that are vanishing from the area, which consume causes a many problems such as deforestation and erosion. Besides, the sale of productive lands for the red ware industries makes harder its good use by the familiar agriculturists in the development of agriculture and cattle raising activity, which for many times is the main economic activity of the place. The precariousness reveals in the constant accidents at work, that most of them are neglected by the local authorities, without any penalty to the industries. Therefore, the industry of red ware in Seridó uses the territory as a resource, leaving its environmental problems that my compromise the quality of life of the actual and future generations

Ontogenic development of Guazuma ulmifolia (Sterculiaceae) sapplings

Guazuma ulmifolia is as popular reforestation tree all over Latin America. It is characteristic of the initial stages of the secondary sucession and presents potential utility in the restoring of degraded areas. There is no information about fruit,seed and seedling morphology, which is of fundamental importance for identification, extraction, management and seed germination as well as for the characterization of post-seminal development and normal seedling pattern. To obtain such information, external fruit, and external and internal seed structures were studied considering shape, size, micropile and embryo localization; and tegumentar structures. All stages of this work were conduced in the Universidade Estadual Paulista (UNESP), Campus of Jaboticabal city. The fruits were collected in a mixed plantation in Jaboticabal city, State of São Paulo, Brazil. For the bio metric study eight repetitions of ten fruits and eight repetitions of 100 seeds were utilized. For seed internal traits study, 50 seeds were drenched in a distiled water, cut, and observed with a scanning electron microscope and a stereomicroscope, For post-seminal study ten repetitions of seven seeds were scarificated chemically with sulphuric acid during 50 min, and placed to germinate ina culture medium, at 30 degrees C, and eight hours of photoperiod. We found elipsoid, woody, indehiscent, pentacarpelar fruits, with a mean lenght of 22.61 mm (diameter 24.88 mm) and 64.0 seeds per fruit. Seed shape varies, mean length is 3.07 mm (width of 2.36 mm). The seed is bitegumented, tegmic, with a continuous, axial and curved embryo. The germination is epigeal and the seedlings are fanerocotiledoneus. Drawings of all stages are included.

Avaliação de genótipos de soja em semeadura de inverno, em Selvíria, MS: Produção e qualidade fisiológica de sementes

The sowing of soybean out of the conventional period is an option for the production of seeds with high physiological quality. On the other hand, this fact makes necessary the search for cultivars adapted to new environmental conditions. Therefore, additional research is needed to supply more information to producers related to the choice of the most suited cultivars with regard to high seed quality. This research was conducted in Selvíria, MS, Brazil in which the cultivars FT-2000, FT-Inaê, Embrapa 20 (Doko RC), CAC-1, IAC-17, IAC-18, IAC-19, IAC-8-2, FT-101, FT-109, MT/ BR 45 (Paiaguás), MT/BR 50 (Parecis), MT/BR 52 (Curió), MT/BR 53 (Tucano), MT/BR 47 (Canário), MT/BR 49 (Pioneira), BRSMT Uirapuru, BR Emgopa 314 (Garça Branca), MG/BR 46 (Conquista), FT-Estrela, FT-Cometa, Dourados, JAB-11, BR 9 (Savana), FT-Abyara, Embrapa 30 (Vale do Rio Doce), Embrapa 9 (Bays), Embrapa 31 (Mina), IAC-16; IAS 5, EMGOPA-304, and IAC-Foscarin 31 were studied. These cultivars were sown on June 5, 1998, and evaluated both for agronomic characteristics and the physiological potential of the seeds. The experimental units were arranged in the field according to a randomized complete block design with five replicates. The cultivars more adapted to the climatic conditions were Parecis, Bays, CAC-1, Garça Branca, Paiaguás, Pioneira, and IAC-16. It was concluded that winter sowing should start at the beginning of May, with water supply, since June was found to be too late.

Application of non-isothermal cure kinetics on the interaction of poly(ethylene terephthalate) - Alkyd resin paints

Samples of paint (P), reused PET (PET-R) and paint/PET-R mixtures (PPET-R) were evaluated using DSC to verify their physical-chemical properties and thermal behavior. Films from paints and PPET-R are visually similar. It was possible to establish that the maximum amount of PET-R that can be added to paint without significantly altering its filming properties is 2%. The cure process (80-203°C) was identified through DSC curves. The kinetic parameters, activation energy (E a) and Arrhenius parameters (A) for the samples containing 0.5 to 1% of PET-R, were calculated using the Flynn-Wall-Ozawa isoconversional method. It was observed that for greater amounts of PET-R added, there is a decrease in the E a values for the cure process. A Kinetic compensation effect (KCE), represented by the equation InA=-2.70+0.31E a was observed for all the samples. The most suitable kinetic model to describe this cure process is the autocatalytic Šesták-Berggreen, model applied to heterogeneous systems. © 2007 Springer Science+Business Media, LLC.
