El caso de Guadalupe Salcedo y las guerrillas del Llano entre 1949-1957 como una respuesta a la Violencia Bipartidista

Este trabajo realiza un análisis de las acciones guerrillas del Llano y de Guadalupe Salcedo entre 1949-1957 a partir de los repertorios de acción colectiva violenta que emplearon, basándose en los postulados de Charles Tilly.

Intereses políticos en el reconocimiento formal de la ciudadanía femenina en Colombia (1945-1957)

Esta investigación analiza la incidencia de los intereses políticos en la consecución formal de la ciudadanía femenina en Colombia a mediados del siglo XX, en un contexto marcado por la influencia de postulados liberales capitalistas y del discurso de modernidad. Desde una perspectiva histórica que incluye al género como variable, se presenta evidencia empírica de los principales intereses políticos masculinos como factor central en la aprobación formal del ingreso de las mujeres al espacio público y la ampliación del concepto de ciudadanía. El texto busca complementar enfoques que han privilegiado intereses electorales o movilizaciones feministas como determinantes del voto femenino, llenando así un vacío académico en la literatura de género. Sin minimizar la importancia de las luchas feministas, se concluye que diversos intereses morales, electorales, diplomáticos y económicos posibilitaron en la aprobación del voto femenino en un contexto histórico nacional e internacional particular, marcado por el influyente discurso de modernidad.

"Y aquí que todo se vuelve pasión": género, sexualidad y acción colectiva en Bogotá

La sigla LGBT se puede comprender como una articulación de elementos discursivos sobre el género y la sexualidad. En Colombia, dicha categoría se ha desarrollado en buena medida de parte de los movimientos sociales. El objetivo central del trabajo de grado es analizar algunos significados sobre el género y la sexualidad que se articulan bajo dicho significante, reconociendo que no son unívocos y que a un mismo significante se le pueden atribuir significados que pueden llegar a ser incluso contradictorios. Para esto, analicé cómo a partir de algunas formas de acción colectiva se han articulado distintos entendimientos del género y la sexualidad como campos de subjetivación. El primer capítulo consiste en un repaso histórico por algunos movimientos sociales de género y sexualidad en Colombia, valiéndome de fuentes secundarias. La segunda y la tercera presentan relatos individuales y grupales de dos organizaciones en Bogotá: el Colectivo León Zuleta y la Colectiva Lobas Furiosas. A partir de entrevistas semi-estructuradas con integrantes de cada colectivo, examiné cómo algunos de los significados construidos colectivamente sobre el género y la sexualidad de acercan a algunos significados articulados bajo la categoría LGBT, pero cómo otros también se alejan, tensionan o cuestionan.

El movimiento social de mujeres en búsqueda del voto femenino. Periodo (1930-1957)

La presente monografía tiene como objetivo reivindicar la imagen política y social de las mujeres que hicieron parte del proceso de obtención del sufragio femenino en Colombia durante el periodo 1930-1957. El reconocimiento del movimiento social en pro del sufragio y su participación (directa e indirecta) desde la esfera pública y privada en el contexto social estructurado permitió reconocerlas como actor político. El anterior resultado demostrará cuan determinante fueron las mujeres del movimiento en el tema del voto femenino y otros derechos civiles y políticos obtenidos para las mujeres colombianas. Así mismo desde las fuentes primarias, se propone el replanteamiento del concepto de actor político teniendo en cuenta las restricciones que supone el mismo.

Análisis de la participación política de la mujer indígena por circunscripción especial para Senado 1991-2014 Mecanismos, alcances y límites

Esta investigación se enfoca en la participación política al Senado de las mujeres indígenas en Colombia por circunscripción especial desde 1991 a 2014. A partir de una contextualización que permite ubicar el papel de las mujeres dentro del movimiento indígena, presenta los mecanismos adoptados por la Constitución de 1991, de la Ley de Cuotas y de la Ley de Partidos, para asegurar una presencia indígena en el Senado y garantizar una participación política paritaria. Posteriormente, muestra y analiza, con base en resultados electorales y en testimonios de lideresas indígenas, que dichos instrumentos han quedado ineficientes para hacer posible la elección de mujeres indígenas al Senado.

Estimating daily methane production in individual cattle with irregular feed intake patterns from short-term methane emission measurements

Spot measurements of methane emission rate (n = 18 700) by 24 Angus steers fed mixed rations from GrowSafe feeders were made over 3- to 6-min periods by a GreenFeed emission monitoring (GEM) unit. The data were analysed to estimate daily methane production (DMP; g/day) and derived methane yield (MY; g/kg dry matter intake (DMI)). A one-compartment dose model of spot emission rate v. time since the preceding meal was compared with the models of Wood (1967) and Dijkstra et al. (1997) and the average of spot measures. Fitted values for DMP were calculated from the area under the curves. Two methods of relating methane and feed intakes were then studied: the classical calculation of MY as DMP/DMI (kg/day); and a novel method of estimating DMP from time and size of preceding meals using either the data for only the two meals preceding a spot measurement, or all meals for 3 days prior. Two approaches were also used to estimate DMP from spot measurements: fitting of splines on a 'per-animal per-day' basis and an alternate approach of modelling DMP after each feed event by least squares (using Solver), summing (for each animal) the contributions from each feed event by best-fitting a one-compartment model. Time since the preceding meal was of limited value in estimating DMP. Even when the meal sizes and time intervals between a spot measurement and all feeding events in the previous 72 h were assessed, only 16.9% of the variance in spot emission rate measured by GEM was explained by this feeding information. While using the preceding meal alone gave a biased (underestimate) of DMP, allowing for a longer feed history removed this bias. A power analysis taking into account the sources of variation in DMP indicated that to obtain an estimate of DMP with a 95% confidence interval within 5% of the observed 64 days mean of spot measures would require 40 animals measured over 45 days (two spot measurements per day) or 30 animals measured over 55 days. These numbers suggest that spot measurements could be made in association with feed efficiency tests made over 70 days. Spot measurements of enteric emissions can be used to define DMP but the number of animals and samples are larger than are needed when day-long measures are made.

Survival in dialysis patients is different between patients with diabetes as primary renal disease and patients with diabetes as a co-morbid condition.

AIMS/HYPOTHESIS:

A previous study in Dutch dialysis patients showed no survival difference between patients with diabetes as primary renal disease and those with diabetes as a co-morbid condition. As this was not in line with our hypothesis, we aimed to verify these results in a larger international cohort of dialysis patients.

METHODS:

For the present prospective study, we used data from the European Renal Association-European Dialysis and Transplant Association (ERA-EDTA) Registry. Incident dialysis patients with data on co-morbidities (n?=?15,419) were monitored until kidney transplantation, death or end of the study period (5 years). Cox regression was performed to compare survival for patients with diabetes as primary renal disease, patients with diabetes as a co-morbid condition and non-diabetic patients.

RESULTS:

Of the study population, 3,624 patients (24%) had diabetes as primary renal disease and 1,193 (11%) had diabetes as a co-morbid condition whereas the majority had no diabetes (n?=?10,602). During follow-up, 7,584 (49%) patients died. In both groups of diabetic patients mortality was higher compared with the non-diabetic patients. Mortality was higher in patients with diabetes as primary renal disease than in patients with diabetes as a co-morbid condition, adjusted for age, sex, country and malignancy (HR 1.20, 95% CI 1.10, 1.30). An analysis stratified by dialysis modality yielded similar results.

CONCLUSIONS/INTERPRETATION:

Overall mortality was significantly higher in patients with diabetes as primary renal disease compared with those with diabetes as a co-morbid condition. This suggests that survival in diabetic dialysis patients is affected by the extent to which diabetes has induced organ damage.

Comparison of tack of pressure-sensitive adhesives (PSAs) at different temperatures

Pressure-sensitive adhesives (PSAs) have applications in the fields of packaging, joining, wound care, and personal care. Depending on the application of the PSA, different performance tests are carried out when new products are developed or the quality of the existing products is checked. Tack is the property of an adhesive that enables it to form instant bond on the surface under light pressure. The tack of a PSA strongly depends on the way the bond is created. Parameters such as the bonded area, contact time and the nature of tack materials all affect the tack force measured. In the development of any PSA, it is desirable to correlate the performance related properties such as tack and peel strength to the rheological behaviour. Finding these correlations would make it possible to evaluate the performance of a PSA using its rheological characteristics. In this investigation we have studied the influence of rheological behaviour of three different PSAs on their tackiness. The three different PSAs used in this study are a low molecular weight rosin ester, high molecular weight rosin ester, and dicyclopentadiene. Various rheological properties such as viscosity, phase angle, and elastic and viscous moduli are measured versus the frequency and temperature. Also the tack properties at various removal speeds and temperatures are evaluated. Analysis of the results indicates different performances of the three PSAs which could be related to their rheological properties, especially the phase angle, at different frequencies and temperatures. The PSA with high molecular weight rosin ester is more sensitive to temperature changes and showed drastic changes in tackiness from high temperature to low temperature. On the other hand, rosin ester with low molecular weight is less sensitive to temperature changes. © 2010 VSP.

John Smith, M.P fonds, 1930, 1949-1950, 1954, 1957-1962, n.d.

John Smith (1894-1977), son of Daniel Smith and Annie Douglas was a native of Scotland, immigrating to Canada in 1913. He first worked as a coach builder, then as a carpenter, finally developing his own contracting business. During WWI he served overseas with the 10th Battery, RCA as a sergeant. In 1924 Smith married Jean Wood, and together they had a daughter Irene (Hugh Langley). Smith first entered politics in 1940 serving as an alderman for the next 11 years. In 1954 he was elected mayor of the city of St. Catharines, and was twice returned to office by acclamation, serving until 1957 when he successfully ran as the Progressive Conservative candidate representing Lincoln County in the federal election. He won the election by a 10 000 vote majority. He served his constituents in Ottawa until he was defeated in the 1962 election. After leaving politics Mr. Smith was active in his community. He spearheaded the establishment of the St. Catharines Museum, and then was appointed its first director in 1966, serving in that capacity until 1972. He was an active member of the board of governors of the St. Catharines General Hospital and a life member and former president of the Lincoln County Humane Society. In 1971 he was voted Citizen of the Year for the city of St. Catharines. John Smith died on February 8, 1977 and was buried at Victoria Lawn Cemetery.
