Diário da Constituinte [gravação de vídeo] : [programa n. 226]

A Comissão de Sistematização da Assembleia Nacional Constituinte (ANC) debate emenda sobre a criação da Defensoria Pública. A Defensoria defende o cidadão contra ações ou omissões praticadas por empresas públicas. O Senador Nelson Carneiro (PMDB-RJ) apoia a Defensoria, assinalando que se trata de uma carreira composta por elementos escolhidos por concurso público e orientados por um Procurador-Geral da Defensoria, que deverão defender os pobres contra os mais poderosos. Plenário discute a representação política. O novo projeto eleva de sessenta para oitenta o número máximo de deputados federais por Estado, beneficiando apenas o Estado de São Paulo. A medida é polêmica porque, mantido o número atual de cadeiras na Câmara, os Estados pequenos teriam sua representação diminuída. O Deputado Victor Fontana (PFL-SC) propõe diminuir o número de deputados na Câmara, afirmando que o último aumento para quatrocentos e oitenta e sete (487) deputados não trouxe mais eficiência e nem conseguiu recuperar a credibilidade dos políticos perante o eleitor. O Deputado Antônio Salim Curiati (PDS-SP) defende a redução para duzentos e vinte e cinco (225) deputados. Os Deputados Celso Dourado (PMDB-BA) e Roberto Rollemberg (PMDB-SP) querem ampliar o número de representantes. Senadores franceses visitaram o Congresso para conhecer os trabalhos da Assembleia Nacional Constituinte (ANC). O presidente da ANC, Deputado Ulysses Guimarães (PMDB-SP) explicou aos senadores que, no Brasil, preferiu-se a organização da Constituinte dividida em comissões temáticas, com a participação de todos os representantes. Os parlamentares franceses também queriam saber sobre a discussão do tema "sistema de governo". O Deputado Ulysses Guimarães declara que esse é um dos temas mais polêmicos e que as negociações ainda não foram concluídas. O Senador Jean François Pintat afirmou que os franceses vêm com bons olhos o trabalho desenvolvido, porque a Constituinte representa a promessa de uma verdadeira democracia.

Dark brown sediment with manly small sized clasts. Some medium and large clasts also present. Clasts range from sub-angular to sub-rounded. Lineations can be seen throughout the sample. Minor patches of clay/organic rich domains can also be seen as well as minor grain stacking.

Pb-210-Ra-226 and Ra-228-Th-232 systematics in young arc lavas: implications for magma degassing and ascent rates

New data show that island arc rocks have (Pb-210/Ra-226)(o) ratios which range from as low as 0.24 up to 2.88. In contrast, (Ra-22S/Th-232) appears always within error of I suggesting that the large Ra-226-excesses observed in arc rocks were generated more than 30 years ago. This places a maximum estimate on melt ascent velocities of around 4000 m/year and provides further confidence that the Ra-226 excesses reflect deep (source) processes rather than shallow level alteration or seawater contamination. Conversely, partial melting must have occurred more than 30 years prior to eruption. The Pb-210 deficits are most readily explained by protracted magma degassing. Using published numerical models, the data suggest that degassing occurred continuously for periods up to several decades just prior to eruption but no link with eruption periodicity was found. Longer periods are required if degassing is discontinuous, less than 100% efficient or if magma is recharged or stored after degassing. The long durations suggest much of this degassing occurs at depth with implications for the formation of hydrothermal and copper-porphyry systems. A suite of lavas erupted in 1985-1986 from Sangeang Api volcano in the Sunda arc are characterised by deficits of Pb-210 relative to Ra-226 from which 6-8 years of continuous Rn-222 degassing would be inferred from recent numerical models. These data also form a linear (Pb-210)/Pb-(Ra-226)/Pb array which might be interpreted as a 71-year isochron. However, the array passes through the origin suggesting displacement downwards from the equiline in response to degassing and so the slope of the array is inferred not to have any age significance. Simple modelling shows that the range of (Ra-226)/Pb ratios requires thousands of years to develop consistent with differentiation occurring in response to cooling at the base of the crust. Thus, degassing post-dated, and was not responsible for magma differentiation. The formation, migration and extraction of gas bubbles must be extremely efficient in mafic magma whereas the higher viscosity of more siliceous magmas retards the process and can lead to Pb-210 excesses. A possible negative correlation between (Pb-210/Ra-226)(o) and SO2 emission rate requires further testing but may have implications for future eruptions. (C) 2004 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.

Tracing pre-eruptive magma degassing using (Pb-210/Ra-226) disequilibria in the volcanic deposits of the 1980-1986 eruption of Mount St. Helens

Disequilibria between Pb-210 and Ra-226 can be used to trace magma degassing, because the intermediate nuclides, particularly Rn-222, are volatile. Products of the 1980-1986 eruptions of Mount St. Helens have been analysed for (Pb-210/Ra-226). Both excesses and deficits of Pb-210 are encountered suggesting rapid gas transfer. The time scale of diffuse, non-eruptive gas escape prior to 1980 as documented by Pb-210 deficits is on the order of a decade using the model developed by Gauthier and Condomines (Earth Planet. Sci. Lett. 172 (1999) 111-126) for a non-renewed magma chamber and efficient Rn removal. The time required to build-up Pb-210 excess is much shorter (months) as can be observed from steady increases of (Pb-210/Ra-226) with time during 1980-1982. The formation of Pb-210 excess requires both rapid gas transport through the magma and periodic blocking of gas escape routes. Superposed on this time trend is the natural variability of (Pb-210/Ra-226) in a single eruption caused by tapping magma from various depths. The two time scales of gas transport, to create both Pb-210 deficits and Pb-210 excesses, cannot be reconciled in a single event. Rather Pb-210 deficits are associated with pre-eruptive diffuse degassing, while Pb-210 excesses document the more vigorous degassing associated with eruption and recharge of the system.

Creating a non-word list to match 226 of the Snodgrass standardised picture set

Creating non-word lists is a necessary but time consuming exercise often needed when conducting behavioural language tasks involving lexical decision-making or non-word reading. The following article describes the process whereby we created a list of 226 non-words matching 226 of the Snodgrass picture set (Snodgrass & Vanderwart, 1980).The non-words were matched for number of syllables, stress pattern, number of phonemes, bigram count and presence and location of the target sound when relevant.

Doses from Rn-222, Ra-226, and Ra-228 in groundwater from Guarani aquifer, South America

Groundwater samples were analysed for Rn-222, Ra-226, and Ra-228 in Guarani aquifer spreading around I million kin 2 within four countries in South America, and it was found that their activity concentrations are lognormally distributed. Population-weighted average activity concentration for these radionuclides allowed to estimate a value: either slightly higher (0.13 mSv/year) than 0.1 mSv for the total effective dose or two times higher (0.21 mSv/year) than this limit, depending on the choice of the dose conversion factor. Such calculation adds useful information for the appropriate management of this transboundary aquifer that is socially and economically very important to about 15 million inhabitants living in Brazil, Argentina, Uruguay and Paraguay.

Estudo de genômica comparativa de corynebacterium pseudotuberculosis linhagem 226 (biovar ovis)

Corynebacterium pseudotuberculosis é uma bactéria Gram-positiva, intracelular facultativa, nãoesporulante, não-capsulada e sem mobilidade, contudo possui fímbria, e pode assumir formas cocóides e filamentosas (pleomórfica), além disto, apresenta crescimento ótimo à 37°C. Este patógeno apresenta dois biovares: ovis que geralmente acomete pequenos ruminantes, e causa a doença linfadenite caseosa, e biovar equi, mais comum em equinos, bovinos, camelídeos, e bubalinos causando a Linfangite ulcerativa. A infecção por esta bactéria pode levar a condenação das carcaças e redução de lã (em ovinos e caprinos), leite e carne destes animais, e consequentemente a perdas econômicas para a indústria agropecuária mundial. Atualmente, ainda não existe uma vacina eficaz para estas doenças. A fim de obter um maior entendimento biológico entre as espécies o presente trabalho tem como objetivo principal analisar, por meio da genômica comparativa a linhagem C. pseudotuberculosis 226 biotipo ovis isolada de um caprino na Califórnia com outras linhagens do biovarar ovis e equi. Na análise de sintenia entre as linhagens foi possível identificar que a linhagem 226 apresenta alta conservação da ordem gênica entre as linhagens do biótipo ovis. Através de análises filogenômicas foi possível identificar que as linhagens I19 e 267 apresentaram maior e menor proximidade filogenética com a linhagem 226. A linhagem 1/06-A foi a que apresentou maior proximidade filogenômica entre as linhagens do biovar equi, quando comparadas a linhagem 226. Foram preditas 8 ilhas de patogenicidade, estando presente na ilha 1 os genes relacionados a virulência de C. pseudotuberculosis mais bem descritos na literatura. Não houveram regiões novas relacionadas a genes de virulência entre nenhuma das linhagens. Foram identificados 248 genes ortólogos entre as linhagens I19, 267 e 226 e 282 genes ortólogos entre as linhagens 258,1/06-A e 226. Com base nesse estudo é possível inferir que as linhagens do biovar ovis possuem um repertório gênico pouco variado e que as linhagens do biovar equi apresentam uma quantidade menor de genes compartilhados com a linhagem 226, corroborando com a diversidade gênica entre os biovares.
