Las deficiencias formativas en la Educación Superior: El caso de las Ingenierías

[ES] El entorno en el que desarrollan sus actividades las instituciones universitarias está poniendo de manifiesto algunas debilidades en la formación impartida a sus egresados. Entre ellas destaca la falta de adecuación entre las competencias potenciadas por las universidades en sus alumnos y las demandadas por las organizaciones. Ante esta situación, este artículo pretende analizar el estado de la cuestión, concretamente centrándonos en el caso de los ingenieros y para el contexto de la Comunidad Autónoma de Aragón. Para ello, se analizan las opiniones manifestadas, a través de un cuestionario, a un grupo de empleadores.

Aspectos inhibidores de la proactividad medioambiental en las empresas industriales: un análisis empírico

[ES] Este trabajo analiza las dificultades que encuentran las empresas a la hora de adoptar una actitud avanzada o proactiva ante los problemas de degradación medioambiental. Los resultados obtenidos a partir de una muestra de 240 empresas industriales indican que las principales barreras inhibidoras de la proactividad medioambiental son de naturaleza tanto externa como interna. No obstante, la influencia de uno y otro tipo de barreras en la estrategia medioambiental es distinta. En concreto, las barreras internas suponen un obstáculo que es necesario superar para poder progresar hacia comportamientos estratégicos medioambientales más proactivos. Sin embargo, las barreras externas, si bien son reconocidas por los directivos como dificultades para la adopción de estrategias medioambientales proactivas, realmente no llegan a impedir el progreso en este sentido.

No debate das emendas populares no Plenário da Assembleia Nacional Constituinte (ANC), discutem-se os direitos da criança e a questão das verbas para a educação. O professor Vital Didonet critica o texto do substitutivo do Relator Bernardo Cabral que, segundo ele, precisa garantir melhor os direitos da criança e do adolescente. Deodato Rivera, representante da campanha "Criança, Prioridade Nacional", defende que o texto seja completado com os sete direitos capitais da criança e do adolescente. Surge nova crítica ao substitutivo do Relator Bernardo Cabral: o dispositivo que prevê a destinação das verbas públicas para o ensino foi retirado do capítulo Educação e colocado nas Disposições Transitórias. O Deputado Pedro Canedo (PFL-GO) e o Senador João Calmon (PMDB-ES) concordam que o assunto deve ser tratado no capítulo Educação e não nas Disposições Transitórias. O Deputado Gumercindo Milhomem (PT-SP) não está satisfeito com o substitutivo. O prazo de entrega de emendas ao substitutivo foi adiado. O Presidente da Assembleia Nacional Constituinte (ANC), Deputado Ulysses Guimarães explica que o prazo foi estendido para buscar o entendimento nas questões polêmicas. O Deputado Mário Covas (PMDB-SP) aprova a prorrogação. O Deputado Marcelo Cordeiro (PMDB-BA) explica como serão os novos prazos.

Para una relectura del compromiso en los años sesenta: paradoja, escritura transparente, retracción de Antonio Gamoneda

[ES] En este artículo se trata de analizar el planteamiento del compromiso poético a la altura del comienzo de la década de los años sesenta, a partir del análisis de esa modalidad de escritura en Blues castellano de Antonio Gamoneda, libro cuyos poemas datan de 1961–1966, aunque permaneció inédito hasta 1982. Leído en el contexto de su producción, Blues castellano muestra una solidaridad absoluta con algunos de los modelos poéticos comprometidos de la época (Nazim Hikmet, Bertolt Brecht, los espirituales negros, etc.), así como una vinculación hacia un tipo de compromiso poético que va a hacer recaer su dimensión crítica en el lenguaje poético, no sólo en el referente externo. En Blues castellano se consolidan ya algunos de los conceptos centrales de la poesía gamonediana posterior: retracción, búsqueda de una escritura transparente, desaparición del sujeto en la escritura, etc.

Luces de cabotaje: la poesía de la transición y la generación de la democracia en los albores del nuevo milenio

[ES] La poesía del siglo XXI muestra un panorama complejo donde coinciden autores de distintos grupos, edades y sensibilidades. Este artículo propone un recorrido por los nombres más destacados y las tendencias más relevantes de la actualidad. Los principales autores del 50, del 68 y del 80 son los protagonistas de una poesía que ha reflejado las transformaciones políticas, ideológicas y literarias de la generación de la democracia

Juegos intertextuales en la poesía española actual: algunos ejemplos

[ES]Durante años ha funcionado el concepto de “escritura palimpsestuosa” para referirse a las múltiples formas de recreación que caracterizan la escritura literaria española entre 1975 y 1990, y quien subrayó que muchos de los rasgos constitutivos de ese modelo escritural tenían mucho que ver con el mapa estético e ideológico de la posmodernidad. Siguiendo la lógica formalista que desarrolla Gerard Genette en Palimpsestos, algunos de los estudios contemporáneos sobre intertextualidad se han reducido a la descripción objetiva y externa de los procedimientos de fabricación textual, pero han obviado que el estudio de la influencia poética ha de considerarse en el ámbito más amplio del ciclo vital del poeta como poeta. Sin pretender llevar a cabo un desarrollo completo de tan amplio objetivo, los comentarios que realizaré a continuación pretenden ilustrar una práctica característica de una parte de la poesía española (aunque también de la literatura y del arte en general de esa época) que comienza a desarrollarse en los años de la Transición política y que, en cierto modo, continúa hasta nuestros días. Todo ello se hará a través del comentario, necesariamente breve, desde la perspectiva intertextual de tres poemas bien significativos de esta práctica en la poesía actual: “Amour fou”y “La despedida”, de Luis Alberto de Cuenca, y “MCMLIV”, de Jon Juaristi.

Aquatic resources in the Philippines and the extent of poverty in the sector

This report presents an overview of the state of aquatic resources in the Philippines, its performance and importance in the Philippine economy, and explores the situation of poverty in the "aquatic resources sector." The report describes the policy environment that guides the action of key actors in the sector. The report also provides a general analysis of some trends in relation to factors that keep the poor from participating and benefiting from aquatic resource management, based on the perspectives of the authors.

O movimento Criança Constituinte quer garantir no novo texto o artigo que dá aos menores infratores o direito de defesa, este dispositivo tem sido combatido por alguns juristas que defendem a manutenção do atual Código de Menores. Os integrantes do movimento Criança Constituinte são favoráveis ao voto aos 16 anos, mas sem a redução da idade para a responsabilidade criminal. A tarde começará a primeira sessão de votação do 2º Turno da Constituinte. Nesta etapa as emendas só podem cortar parte do texto e corrigir erros ou contradições. Para o 2º Turno os constituintes apresentaram 1844 Emendas e 1744 foram destacadas, mas ao contrário do 1º Turno o Destaque não dá preferência na votação. Os dispositivos que os constituintes mais querem mudar no 2º Turno são os que tratam dos direitos dos trabalhadores, da anistia financeira, do voto aos 16 anos, da reforma agrária e do tabelamento de juros. Carlos Sant’Anna (Líder do Governo) acredita que para os temas polêmicos haverá quórum para decisões

Hydroacoustic evaluation of spawning red hind (Epinephelus guttatus) aggregations along the coast of Puerto Rico in 2002 and 2003

Red hind (Epinephelus guttatus) have been overfished in the Caribbean and were included with seven other regional grouper species deemed vulnerable to risk of extinction. The Puerto Rico Department of Natural and Environmental Resources desired to map spawning red hind aggregations within commonwealth waters as part of their resource management program for the species. Mobile hydroacoustic surveys were conducted over 3-day periods in 2002 and 2003, indexed to the full moon phase in February or March when red hind were known to aggregate. Four vessels concurrently sampled the southwest, south, and southeast coasts of Puerto Rico in 2002. In 2003, three vessels conducted complementary surveys of the northwest, north, and northeast coasts of the island, completing a circuit of the coastal shelf-spawning habitat. These surveys indicated that red hind spawning aggregations were prevalent along the south and west coasts, and sparse along the north coast during the survey periods. Highest spawning red hind concentrations were observed in three areas offshore of the west coast of Puerto Rico, around Mona and Desecheo islands (20,443 and 10,559 fish/km2, respectively) and in the Bajo de Cico seasonal closed area (4,544 fish/km2). Following both 2002 and 2003 surveys, a series of controlled acoustic measurements of known local fish species in net pens were conducted to assess the mean target strength (acoustic backscatter) of each group. Ten species of fish were measured, including red hind (E. guttatus), coney (E. fulvus), white grunt (Haemulon plumieri), pluma (Calamus pennatula), blue tang (Acanthurus coeruleus), squirrel fish (Holocentrus spp.), black durgeon (Melichtyhs niger), ocean file fish (Canthidermis sufflamen), ocean surgeon fish (Acanthurus bahianus), and butter grouper (Mycteroperca spp.). In general, the mean target strength results from the caged fish experiments were in agreement with published target strength length relationships, with the exception of white grunt and pluma.

Detecting fish aggregations from reef habitats mapped with high resolution side scan sonar imagery

As part of a multibeam and side scan sonar (SSS) benthic survey of the Marine Conservation District (MCD) south of St. Thomas, USVI and the seasonal closed areas in St. Croix—Lang Bank (LB) for red hind (Epinephelus guttatus) and the Mutton Snapper (MS) (Lutjanus analis) area—we extracted signals from water column targets that represent individual and aggregated fish over various benthic habitats encountered in the SSS imagery. The survey covered a total of 18 km2 throughout the federal jurisdiction fishery management areas. The complementary set of 28 habitat classification digital maps covered a total of 5,462.3 ha; MCDW (West) accounted for 45% of that area, and MCDE (East) 26%, LB 17%, and MS the remaining 13%. With the exception of MS, corals and gorgonians on consolidated habitats were significantly more abundant than submerged aquatic vegetation (SAV) on unconsolidated sediments or unconsolidated sediments. Continuous coral habitat was the most abundant consolidated habitat for both MCDW and MCDE (41% and 43% respectively). Consolidated habitats in LB and MS predominantly consisted of gorgonian plain habitat with 95% and 83% respectively. Coral limestone habitat was more abundant than coral patch habitat; it was found near the shelf break in MS, MCDW, and MCDE. Coral limestone and coral patch habitats only covered LB minimally. The high spatial resolution (0.15 m) of the acquired imagery allowed the detection of differing fish aggregation (FA) types. The largest FA densities were located at MCDW and MCDE over coral communities that occupy up to 70% of the bottom cover. Counts of unidentified swimming objects (USOs), likely representing individual fish, were similar among locations and occurred primarily over sand and shelf edge areas. Fish aggregation school sizes were significantly smaller at MS than the other three locations (MCDW, MCDE, and LB). This study shows the advantages of utilizing SSS in determining fish distributions and density.

Changes in white adipose tissue metabolism induced by resveratrol in rats

Background: A remarkable range of biological functions have been ascribed to resveratrol. Recently, this polyphenol has been shown to have body fat lowering effects. The aim of the present study was to assess some of the potential underlying mechanisms of action which take place in adipose tissue. Methods: Sixteen male Sprague-Dawley rats were randomly divided into two groups: control and treated with 30 mg resveratrol/kg body weight/d. All rats were fed an obesogenic diet and after six weeks of treatment white adipose tissues were dissected. Lipoprotein lipase activity was assessed by fluorimetry, acetyl-CoA carboxylase by radiometry, and malic enzyme, glucose-6P-dehydrogenase and fatty acid synthase by spectrophotometry. Gene expression levels of acetyl-CoA carboxylase, fatty acid synthase, lipoprotein lipase, hormone-sensitive lipase, adipose triglyceride lipase, PPAR-gamma, SREBP-1c and perilipin were assessed by Real time RT-PCR. The amount of resveratrol metabolites in adipose tissue was measured by chromatography. Results: There was no difference in the final body weight of the rats; however, adipose tissues were significantly decreased in the resveratrol-treated group. Resveratrol reduced the activity of lipogenic enzymes, as well as that of heparin-releasable lipoprotein lipase. Moreover, a significant reduction was induced by this polyphenol in hormone-sensitive lipase mRNA levels. No significant changes were observed in other genes. Total amount of resveratrol metabolites in adipose tissue was 2.66 +/- 0.55 nmol/g tissue. Conclusions: It can be proposed that the body fat-lowering effect of resveratrol is mediated, at least in part, by a reduction in fatty acid uptake from circulating triacylglycerols and also in de novo lipogenesis.
