Traduzindo o economês: metáforas da inflação em textos de jornalismo econômico

The research aimed two objectives: 1st) identifying and describing the metaphors of the inflation, in a corpus of 18 texts of economic journalism, from Joelmir Beting, written in the last trimester of 2002, at the moment of the government s transition of president Fernando Henrique Cardoso to Luiz Inácio Lula Da Silva. 2nd) verifying the recognition of the metaphors by the students of the basic education of a private school from Natal. 91 metaphors had been identified, analyzed in the perspective of the conceptual metaphor s theory, by Lakoff and Johnson (2002), on the basis of the distinction between conceptual metaphor and metaphoric expressions, and between domain-source/domain-target. 10 underlying conceptual metaphors had been inferred, being that the domains-source used more frequently to characterize the inflation had been those ones according to the human being and the animals and, of a less imaginable form, to the ways of transport (car, aircraft). These general conceptual metaphors had been unfolded in other s more specific ones ( animal specifying itself in lion , dragon , dog , etc.). Another result was the identification of metaphoric expressions with two or more meanings , with relation to more than one conceptual metaphor or explicit, in the same expression, two domains-source (for example: armored dragon ) and contributes, of a relevant form, for the semantic struturation of the text. The understanding of the metaphors was verified through an activity of domains-source s identification (10 metaphoric statements and fulfilling of the gap in the phrase the inflation is a/an ) applied in a group of 8th year of the basic education (12-13 years old, with 14 girls and 17 boys) from a school of good social and economic positions from Natal-RN. There weren t great difficulties on the part of the students in recognizing the domains-source involved: about 80% to the great majority of the statements

Desenvolvimento relativo dos tecidos ósseo, muscular e adiposo dos cortes da carcaça de cordeiros Santa Inês

O trabalho foi conduzido no Setor de Ovinocultura do Departamento de Zootecnia da UFLA, em Lavras, com o objetivo de estudar o crescimento alométrico dos tecidos ósseo, muscular e adiposo dos cortes comerciais em cordeiros. Foram utilizados 24 cordeiros machos inteiros da raça Santa Inês. Os animais foram submetidos a regime de confinamento e receberam alimentação ad libitum. O abate ocorreu quando os animais atingiram os pesos vivos de 15, 25, 35 e 45 kg. Após a carcaça ter sido limpa e resfriada, foram obtidos os cortes comerciais a partir da meia carcaça esquerda. A quantidade dos diferentes tecidos foram obtidos por intermédio da dissecação de perna, lombo, costeleta, costela/ fralda e paleta. O estudo do desenvolvimento relativo da composição tecidual foi feito por meio do modelo de HUXLEY (1932). Constatou-se crescimento heterogônico negativo (b < 1) para o tecido ósseo e heterogônico positivo (b > 1) para o tecido adiposo de todos os cortes. Quanto ao tipo de crescimento do tecido muscular da costela/fralda e paleta, foi verificado crescimento isogônico (b=1) deste tecido em relação aos cortes.

Supercritical fluid extraction from fennel (Foeniculum vulgare): global yield, composition and kinetic data

Supercritical fluid extraction (SFE) from solids has proven to be technically feasible for almost any system; nonetheless, its economical viability has been proven for a restricted number of systems. A common practice is to compare the cost of manufacturing of vegetable extracts by a variety of techniques without deeply considering the huge differences in composition and functional properties among the various types of extracts obtained; under this circumstance, the cost of manufacturing do not favor SFE. Additionally, the influence of external parameters such as the agronomic conditions and the SFE system geometry are not considered. In the present work, these factors were studied for the system fennel seeds + CO2. The effects of the harvesting season and the degree of maturation on the global yields for the system fennel seeds + CO2 were analyzed at 300 bar and 40 degrees C. The effects of the pressure on the global yields were determined for the temperatures of 30 and 40 degrees C. Kinetics experiments were done for various ratios of bed height to bed diameter. Fennel extracts were also obtained by hydrodistillation and low-pressure solvent extraction. The chemical composition of the fennel extracts were determined by gas chromatography. The SFE maximum global yield (12.5%, dry basis) was obtained with dry harvested fennel seeds. Anethole and fenchone were the major constituents of the extract; the following fat acids palmitic (C16H32O2), palmitoleic stearic (C18H36O2), oleic (C18H34O2), linoleic (C18H32O2) and linolenic (C18H30O2) were also detected in the extracts. A relation between amounts of feed and solvent, bed height and diameter, and solvent flow rate was proposed. The models of Sovova, Goto et al. and Tan and Lion were capable of describing the mass transfer kinetics. (c) 2005 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.

A educação popular na América Latina: um estudo comparado do pensamento social de Simón Rodríguez (Venezuela, 1771-1854) e Antônio Carneiro Leão (Brasil, 1887-1966)

Esta pesquisa aborda como temática a Educação Popular em Simón Rodríguez (1771-1854) e Antônio Carneiro Leão (1887-1966), intelectuais da América Latina. A questão norteadora deste processo investigativo é: no contexto de estruturação dos Estados-nação latinoamericanos, como os intelectuais Simón Rodríguez e Antônio Carneiro Leão pensavam a Educação popular? Como hipóteses, entendemos que: 1) Estes intelectuais tecem fios tênues que auxiliaram na significação do conceito de Educação Popular na atualidade, seja por meio da negação seja pela defesa de princípios que atualmente permeiam a conceituação da Educação Popular, ainda que o sentido atribuído à Educação Popular por eles à época não correspondam exatamente à significação presente; 2) Simón Rodríguez e Antônio Carneiro Leão, mesmo de lugares diferentes, um na Venezuela, outro no Brasil, expressaram em suas obras pensamentos com certas semelhanças no que tange à ideia de Educação Popular na América Latina. Com base na questão e hipóteses apresentadas adotou-se como objetivo geral: analisar, por meio do estudo comparado do pensamento social e da teoria descolonial, as formulações de Educação Popular em Simón Rodríguez e Antônio Carneiro Leão, com vistas a sua relação com o contexto latino-americano. Como objetivos específicos, definiu-se: a) contextualizar o conjunto de obras de Simón Rodríguez e Antônio Carneiro Leão, enfatizando os escritos sobre educação, particularmente os enunciados que tratam da idéia de Educação Popular; b) situar o pensamento dos autores no contexto histórico mais geral de seus países; c) analisar as concepções teóricas de Simón Rodríguez (exemplo de pensamento venezuelano) e compará-las com as concepções teóricas de Antônio Carneiro Leão (um exemplo de pensamento brasileiro), de modo a verificar quais os pontos convergentes e divergentes sobre a ideia de Educação Popular; d) Compreender as implicações da proposta de Educação Popular de Simón Rodríguez e Antônio Carneiro Leão para o movimento educacional latino-americano. No plano teórico-metodológico, a pesquisa se fundamenta na História Cultural (representações sociais e lutas de representações), na História Intelectual (memória coletiva e utilizagens mentais) e na Teoria Descolonial (exterioridade). Os resultados revelam que Simón Rodríguez e Carneiro Leão ao apontarem no século XIX e início do século XX a necessidade de valorização cultural das classes populares se aproximam significativamente das concepções de educação popular na atualidade. Também indicam uma similitude entre a realidade colonial hispanoamericana e a realidade luso-brasileira que aproximam essas concepções. Resguardadas as nuances históricas dos países em que nasceram e viveram os autores estudados, constatou-se que estes compreendem a educação como um instrumental imprescindível para a superação da colonização e, portanto, de consolidação da independência política, econômica e cultura do continente. Ao incursionar pela obra dos autores, sob um olhar regido pela Teoria Descolonial, identificamos que o Liberalismo, o Positivismo e as Teorias Raciais produzidos no Ocidente europeu fundamentaram o pensamento intelectual de Simón Rodríguez e Carneiro Leão, mas assumiram outras dimensões ao serem pensadas em meio às experiências vividas pelos autores no continente americano. Sensíveis ao sofrimento de uma população mestiça que não mais poderia viver fora dos parâmetros da modernidade, esses autores, que destacam a educação como um instrumental necessário à libertação política, econômica e cultural da América Latina, defendem, na teoria e na prática, um projeto educacional que fosse capaz de salvaguardar venezuelanos e brasileiros das marcas deixadas pela colonização.

Processo de uso e ocupação do Pontal do Paranapanema-SP: perspectiva das unidades de conservação (UCs)

The current concern with environmental issues by the scientific community, governmental and civil society also brings out the need to recover, preserve and conserve the environment. With this understanding, this work was prepared, which had as one of the main objectives of the historical process of land use and occupancy of the Pontal, since the nineteenth century to the present day. From this, the changes were evident in the types of land use, which rose from native forest to plant crops (permanent and temporary crops) and later as pasture. Through this process of occupation, exploitation of forests and replacement even three, Reserves being brought from the Far West Paulista, through the state government of Sao Paulo, they were almost decimated. Such areas decreed by law to be preserved and conserved, with the rampant occupations, were suffocated by the fakes and illegal occupation of land tenure contracts, leaving the region currently only a few forest fragments and protected areas of State Park Morro do Diabo, PRNP Boa Vista and Ecological Station Black Lion Tamarin. Furthermore, the article emphasizes the main legislation being developed by federal and state levels aimed at protecting natural resources and the effectiveness they had with the passage of time, demonstrating that the conservation of the environment, has several contributions in the law, however, and they are so vast that hinder its application.

O estilo do rei: o diálogo entre O Rei Leão, da Disney, e Hamlet, de Shakespeare, sob uma perspectiva semiótica

This work consists of a semiotic analysis of the animation motion picture The Lion King (1994), by the Walt Disney Animation Studios, describing its intertextual relation with Hamlet, by Shakespeare, considering Disney’s individuality, its style. In order to study style in texts, we use discursive semiotics theory, highlighting Discini’s work (2013) and the concept of discursive settings. Hence, a deep discussion about The Lion King’s style, compared to the Shakespeare’s play, is established. The movie, once a syncretic text, requires advanced studies on Expression Plane, its plastic, musical and verbal/phonic aspects. We find these studies in the work of José Luiz Fiorin (2009), Lúcia Teixeira (2009), Ana Claúdia de Oliveira (2009), Jean-Marie Floch (2009) and Antônio Vicente Pietroforte (2008). We note how a syncretic text makes the discursive settings more complex by assembling plastic and sonorous materials in semissimbolic relation. Once defined The Lion King’s style, we analyze the way it justifies the intense popularity of this kind of animation features. Finally, it is important to understand how Disney uses in its style not only discursive settings, but also passional settings, revealing its own way to stir emotions on the spectator

Wildlife Tuberculosis in South African Conservation Areas: Implications and Challenges

Tuberculosis, caused by Mycobacterium bovis, was first diagnosed in African buffalo in South Africa’s Kruger National Park in 1990. Over the past 15 years the disease has spread northwards leaving only the most northern buffalo herds unaffected. Evidence suggests that 10 other small and large mammalian species, including large predators, are spillover hosts. Wildlife tuberculosis has also been diagnosed in several adjacent private game reserves and in the Hluhluwe-iMfolozi Park, the third largest game reserve in South Africa. The tuberculosis epidemic has a number of implications, for which the full effect of some might only be seen in the long-term. Potential negative long-term effects on the population dynamics of certain social animal species and the direct threat for the survival of endangered species pose particular problems for wildlife conservationists. On the other hand, the risk of spillover infection to neighboring communal cattle raises concerns about human health at the wildlife–livestock–human interface, not only along the western boundary of Kruger National Park, but also with regards to the joint development of the Greater Limpopo Transfrontier Conservation Area with Zimbabwe and Mozambique. From an economic point of view, wildlife tuberculosis has resulted in national and international trade restrictions for affected species. The lack of diagnostic tools for most species and the absence of an effective vaccine make it currently impossible to contain and control this disease within an infected free-ranging ecosystem. Veterinary researchers and policy-makers have recognized the need to intensify research on this disease and the need to develop tools for control, initially targeting buffalo and lion.

Pinniped Populations at Islas ae Guadalupe, San Benito, Cedros, and Natividad, Baja California, in 1968

In April and June 1968, the Pacific Ocean Biological Survey Program (POBSP) of the Smithsonian Institution conducted surveys on breeding marine birds and pinnipeds on various Mexican islands. Between 18 to 26 April and 21 to 29 June, pinniped populations were surveyed at Islas de Guadalupe, San Benito, Cedros, and Natividad off Baja California. Species observed were the California sea lion, Zalophus californianus, Guadalupe fur seal, Arctocephalus townsendi, harbor seal, Phoca vitulina, and northern elephant seal, Mirounga angustirostris
