Cabeça de xara is a ready-to-eat meat product, whose production is very characteristic in Alentejo, a particular region of Portugal. It is a galantine usually moulded into parallelepiped shape made with various meats obtained from the Alentejano pig breed reared in the same region, namely deboned pork heads, tongue and connective tissue to which a number of condiments like salt, parsley, wine and pepper, are added. This work intended to test the feasibility of adding vinegar in order to increase the shelf-life of cabeça de xara, by reducing the contaminating microbiota responsible for spoilage, as well as controlling the pathogen Listeria monocytogenes. Three independent batches were produced and proximate composition, pH, aw, microbiological parameters and biogenic amines content evaluated. A sensory analysis was also performed throughout the storage period. No significant differences between control and vinegar samples was found regarding the proximate composition of cabeça de xara. As expected, pH is lower in the vinegar samples, however no differences in aw were observed between the two treatments. L. monocytogenes was present from the first month on only in one batch in the control treatment. However, it is inhibited by the addition of vinegar until the third month of storage, where L. monocytogenes is present but below the limit established in the 2073/2005 regulation. The presence of vinegar significantly decreased the content in biogenic amines, particularly cadaverine, putrescine and tyramine, throughout the storage period. Concerning sensory evaluation, no vinegar taste was reported by the panellists in a depreciating way.

Portugal in the end of the 19 th century was characterized by a huge economic and political instability. This situation led to the publication of the Hunger Law (1899), which is identified as the critical breaking point since it imposed a political ideology over a vernacular landscape. The Alentejo (south of Portugal), between (1889-1929) emerges as a paradigmatic landscapes where an abrupt transformation take place: an ancient landscape with the loss of their ecological memory was lost and a false identities was created. The diversity and ecological richness of the vernacular landscape gave way to the monotony of the cereal and the ecological and social system that for centuries had built up and evolved was abruptly compromised. To analyze and understand the important transformation that happened in the ancestral countryside of Alentejo, the research was based on the concept of landscape as a system, and that the landscape represents the relationship between the natural system and the cultural.

The authors are developing a pilot project for a Municipality in the North of Portugal, envisaging the definition and implementation of an e-marketplace for healthcare and social services, in order to facilitate the interaction between healthcare and social services professionals and people with special needs (or their relatives). Based on the results of a survey on user needs analysis and expectations conducted in 2011, the paper discusses the relevance and interest of such platforms and the main drivers and motivations of the population for using such services, as well as which services would motivate citizens to use the platform. The results of the study will be used to select the products and services perceived to be the most desired by the potential users. The paper thus makes three main contributions: (1) the results of the study confirm the interest and the perceived potential of such a service, from the end-users perspective; (2) the findings support the advantage of expanding this pilot project to a full scale implementation; and (3) the performed analysis improves our understanding of the relations between the characteristics of the inquired population and the perceived interest in such platforms.

O presente trabalho incide sobre a problemática do ensino/aprendizagem da História e Geografia de Portugal numa turma de 5ºano com sete alunos portadores de Necessidades Educativas Especiais : dois alunos com espectro do autismo; dois com Hiperactividade e Deficit de Atenção; um com Síndrome de Prader Willi; um com atraso global do desenvolvimento e outro com uma disfunção comportamental grave. A observação , o estudo e a pesquisa foi o caminho seguido no sentido de (re)produzir uma metodologia adequada a uma turma com tal diversidade, numa perspectiva de escola aberta a todos, onde todos aprendem juntos independentemente das suas dificuldades , no respeito pelos ritmos e estilos de aprendizagem de cada um. No sentido de superar as práticas tradicionais, isto é superar o ensinar a todos como se fossem um, seguimos as orientações de Perrenoud (2000) que propõe a adopção da pedagogia diferenciada como resposta pertinente às exigências de uma escola para todos. A gestão das diferentes necessidades e características dos alunos, e a reorganização /recriação de conteúdos e/ou metodologias e /ou materiais que melhor respondessem a essa diversidade permitiram a aquisição das competências curricularmente consideradas necessárias ao cumprimento da escolaridade obrigatória. Confirmamos assim, que é possível que todos aprendam de modos diferentes, tal como prediz um antigo provérbio chinês, todos atingem o cume da montanha ainda que percorrendo caminhos muito diversos.

This paper presents an investigation into cloud-to-ground lightning activity over the continental territory of Portugal with data collected by the national Lightning Location System. The Lightning Location System in Portugal is first presented. Analyses about geographical, seasonal, and polarity distribution of cloud-to-ground lightning activity and cumulative probability of peak current are carried out. An overall ground flash density map is constructed from the database, which contains the information of more than five years and almost four million records. This map is compared with the thunderstorm days map, produced by the Portuguese Institute of Meteorology, and with the orographic map of Portugal. Finally, conclusions are duly drawn.

As narrativas bélicas de viagem do séc. XIX, no âmbito da Guerra Civil Portuguesa (1828-1834) são particularmente ricas enquanto fonte e memória histórica de acontecimentos importantes da História de Portugal. Mas além do seu potencial historiográfico, tais escritos são também o espelho da idiossincrasia – vitoriana – do autor reflectida na forma como transforma, constrói, julga ou interpreta a realidade do país que visita, bem como a maneira de ser do seu povo.

In the initial stage of this work, two potentiometric methods were used to determine the salt (sodium chloride) content in bread and dough samples from several cities in the north of Portugal. A reference method (potentiometric precipitation titration) and a newly developed ion-selective chloride electrode (ISE) were applied. Both methods determine the sodium chloride content through the quantification of chloride. To evaluate the accuracy of the ISE, bread and respective dough samples were analyzed by both methods. Statistical analysis (0.05 significance level) indicated that the results of these methods did not differ significantly. Therefore the ISE is an adequate alternative for the determination of chloride in the analyzed samples. To compare the results of these chloride-based methods with a sodium-based method, sodium was quantified in the same samples by a reference method (atomic absorption spectrometry). Significant differences between the results were verified. In several cases the sodium chloride content exceeded the legal limit when the chloride-based methods were used, but when the sodium-based method was applied this was not the case. This could lead to the erroneous application of fines and therefore the authorities should supply additional information regarding the analytical procedure for this particular control.

O patrocínio, enquanto meio de comunicação, tem assumido uma importância cada vez maior nas estratégias de marketing das organizações. O mercado empresarial atual obriga a que as marcas encontrem formas diferentes das convencionais de comunicar com os seus clientes e passar-lhes a sua mensagem. Assim, as empresas procuram, por via do patrocínio, interagir com os consumidores e criar laços afetivos que os liguem às marcas que representam. A presente investigação procura perceber de que forma uma ação de patrocínio pode ter impacto na intenção de compra dos consumidores relativamente aos produtos/serviços da marca patrocinadora. Pretende-se igualmente explorar os efeitos da congruência entre o evento patrocinado e a marca patrocinadora, da atitude relativamente ao evento patrocinado e da atitude relativamente à marca patrocinadora na intenção de compra dos consumidores. Os resultados obtidos confirmam que o patrocínio tem influência na intenção de compra dos consumidores em relação aos produtos/serviços da marca patrocinadora do evento. Confirmam também que a congruência entre o evento e a marca, a atitude relativamente à marca e a atitude relativamente ao evento são variáveis que se encontram interligadas e que exercem um efeito de influência entre si, bem como em relação à intenção de compra dos consumidores.

O estudo teve como objectivo comparar o impacto do estigma e do bem-estar subjectivo em pessoas com diferentes doenças crónicas. Foram avaliados 729 doentes, recrutados em hospitais de Portugal, que após o diagnóstico retomaram a sua vida normal. Controlando para um conjunto de variáveis sócio-demográficas e clínicas, a aplicação de Modelos de Análise de Covariância Multivariada, permitiu verificar diferenças significativas apenas para a percepção do estigma entre os grupos de doenças crónicas. Pessoas com obesidade, epilepsia e esclerose múltipla referem mais estigma e pessoas com diabetes tipo1 e miastenia gravis referem menos estigma.

Infiltration galleries are among the oldest known means used for small public water fountains. Owing to its ancestral origin they are usually associated with high quality water. Thirty-one compounds, including pesticides and estrogens from different chemical families, were analysed in waters from infiltration galleries collected in Alto Douro Demarcated Wine region (North of Portugal). A total of twelve compounds were detected in the water samples. Nine of these compounds are described as presenting evidence or potential evidence of interfering with the hormone system of humans and wildlife. Although concentrations of the target analytes were relatively low, many of them below their limit of quantification, four compounds were above quantification limit and two of them even above the legal limit of 0.1 lg/L: dimethoate (30.38 ng/L), folpet (64.35 ng/L), terbuthylazine-desethyl (22.28 to 292.36 ng/L) and terbuthylazine (22.49 to 369.33 ng/L).

Esta dissertação tem como objetivo central o estudo da satisfação dos colaboradores com o sistema de recompensas de que beneficiam nas organizações onde trabalham. A lógica subjacente ao seu desenvolvimento privilegia, primeiramente, uma abordagem sobre os conceitos de sistema de recompensas e de satisfação e, consequentemente, as teorias que relacionam ambos os conceitos. Foi aplicado um inquérito por questionário a uma amostra de 94 colaboradores de duas cooperativas agrícolas localizadas na região Norte de Portugal. Foram testadas algumas hipóteses de estudo capazes de permitir caracterizar os sistemas de recompensas desenvolvidos nas cooperativas agrícolas objeto de estudo. A análise dos resultados permite concluir que: 1) é menor a satisfação com o sistema de recompensas entre os colaboradores do sexo feminino; 2) é maior a valorização atribuída à componente monetária do que à componente não monetária do sistema de recompensas; 3) a antiguidade na organização não influencia a satisfação dos colaboradores com o sistema de recompensas de que beneficiam; 4) predomina a componente monetária fixa no sistema de recompensas de ambas as cooperativas; 5) a maior satisfação com o sistema de recompensas de que beneficiam é encontrada entre os colaboradores com habilitações de nível superior e; 6) não foram encontradas diferenças na satisfação com o sistema de recompensas entre os colaboradores acima versus abaixo dos 45 anos. Baseado nestes resultados, na parte final desta dissertação são discutidas as principais implicações teóricas e práticas. Algumas limitações bem como sugestões para futura pesquisa são também apresentadas.

In the southern part of Tagus basin, North of paleozoic rocks of Valverde-Senhor das Chagas (near Alcácer do Sal) horst, a marine transgression has been recognized, Upper Serravallian, and maybe Lower Tortonian in age. There are no earlier marine deposits, and no younger ones are known either. Paleozoic behaved as a barrier separating two basins, distinct at least since Middle Miocene until Upper Pleistocene. Until now, both were regarded as a single entity, the so-called «Sado basin» Southwards (Alvalade basin) there has been a single transgression. It was assummed that it was the same one as the former. Indeed it is not definitely so. Later transgression accounts for Esbarrondadoiro Formation, whose deposits have been ascribed to Tortonian or even to Middle Miocene. However they are Upper Messinian to Lower Zanclean. Esbarrondadoiro Formation is younger than Lower Member of Cacela Formation in Algarve and, with even stronger reason, than the upper-most well dated marine levels in Tagus basin. Age of Miocene units dealt with here has been based on small mammals found in marine sands.
