Rotunda of the Breakers Hotel

The five-story Rotunda of the lobby of the Breakers Hotel provided a place for guests to relax and enjoy the hotel. Wicker furniture was imported from Europe. The Rotunda was also the scene of entertainment including impromptu concerts from Metropolitan Opera stars such as Enrico Caruso, who stopped at Cedar Point on their way to Chicago for the Met's summer season.

Rescates de entidades financieras: El caso español

Tras el comienzo de la crisis de las hipotecas subprime en 2007 en Estados Unidos y su agudización tras el default de Lehman Brothers en 2008, sabiéndose la extensión de estas hipotecas a lo largo del planeta, la desconfianza se apoderó de los mercados y el crédito dejó de fluir a las economías. En España no se había invertido en estos activos, pero parte del sistema financiero había incurrido en ciertos desequilibrios que si bien permitieron el crecimiento rápido de la economía, cuando la financiación externa dejó de llegar los problemas afloraron de manera rotunda. El sector financiero, especialmente las cajas de ahorro, tuvo que ser rescatado mediante un proceso que constó de numerosas ayudas económicas, cambios de legislación y donde fue necesaria ayuda de la Unión Europea para finalizar el proceso. Tras esta crisis, el subsector de las cajas de ahorro prácticamente desapareció, dando paso a un nuevo mapa de las entidades financieras españolas, donde se ha reducido la participación de los diferentes estamentos políticos, al haber sido estos señalados en ocasiones como posibles causantes de la mala gestión de las cajas. Esta gestión y sus consecuencias no han sido las mismas en las diferentes zonas del país y serán analizadas desde el punto de vista de los gobiernos autonómicos.

Phylogenetic position and morphology of thecae and cysts of Scrippsiella (Dinophyceae) species in the East China Sea

Resting cysts of the marine phytoplanktonic dinoflagellate Scrippsiella spp. are encountered in coastal habitats and shallow seas all over the world. Identification of Scrippsiella species requires information on cyst morphology because the plate pattern of the flagellated cell is conserved. Cysts from sediments of the East China Sea were identified based on traits from both the cysts and the thecal patterns of germinated cells. Calcareous cysts belonged predominantly to S. trochoidea (F. Stein) A. R. Loebl., S. rotunda J. Lewis, and S. precaria Montresor et Zingone. The former two species also produced smooth and noncalcified cysts in the field. A new species, S. donghaienis H. Gu sp. nov, was obtained from six noncalcified cysts with organic spines. These cysts are spherical, full of pale white and greenish granules with a mesoepicystal archeopyle. The vegetative cells consist of a conical epitheca and a round hypotheca with a plate formula of po, x, 4', 3a, 7 '', 6c (5c + t), 6 s, 5''', 2'''' and are morphologically indistinguishable from S. trochoidea. Results of internal transcribed spacer (ITS) sequence comparisons revealed that S. donghaienis was distinct from the S. trochoidea complex and appeared nested within the Calciodinellum/Calcigonellum clade. Culture experiments showed that the presence of a red body in the cyst and the shape of the archeopyle were constant within cell lines from one generation to the next, while the morphological features of the cyst wall, such as calcification and spine shape, appeared to be phenotypically plastic.

Escalas caseras

Cuantas escalas matemáticas coexisten en una vivienda normal? A esta pregunta la mayoría de ciudadanos responderían con una rotunda respuesta (¡Ninguna!) seguida de una leve sonrisa (En mi casa no entran las matemáticas). El objetivo de este clip es hacer ver la agobiante cantidad de escalas con las cuales todos (incluidos los de letras) convivimos. La exposición tendrá pues forma de carta dirigida al vecino de turno.

Ecology of testate amoebae in an Amazonian peatland and development of a transfer function for palaeohydrological reconstruction

Tropical peatlands represent globally important carbon sinks with a unique biodiversity and are currently threatened by climate change and human activities. It is now imperative that proxy methods are developed to understand the ecohydrological dynamics of these systems and for testing peatland development models. Testate amoebae have been used as environmental indicators in ecological and palaeoecological studies of peatlands, primarily in ombrotrophic Sphagnum-dominated peatlands in the mid- and high-latitudes. We present the first ecological analysis of testate amoebae in a tropical peatland, a nutrient-poor domed bog in western (Peruvian) Amazonia. Litter samples were collected from different hydrological microforms (hummock to pool) along a transect from the edge to the interior of the peatland. We recorded 47 taxa from 21 genera. The most common taxa are Cryptodifflugia oviformis, Euglypha rotunda type, Phryganella acropodia, Pseudodifflugia fulva type and Trinema lineare. One species found only in the southern hemisphere, Argynnia spicata, is present. Arcella spp., Centropyxis aculeata and Lesqueresia spiralis are indicators of pools containing standing water. Canonical correspondence analysis and non-metric multidimensional scaling illustrate that water table depth is a significant control on the distribution of testate amoebae, similar to the results from mid- and high-latitude peatlands. A transfer function model for water table based on weighted averaging partial least-squares (WAPLS) regression is presented and performs well under cross-validation (r 2apparent=0.76,RMSE=4.29;r2jack=0.68,RMSEP=5.18. The transfer function was applied to a 1-m peat core, and sample-specific reconstruction errors were generated using bootstrapping. The reconstruction generally suggests near-surface water tables over the last 3,000 years, with a shift to drier conditions at c. cal. 1218-1273 AD
