Productivity and Meat Quality with Meat Goat Management

The growth of kid meat goats and their carcass and meat characteristics with monensin sodium or decoquinate coccidiostats in feed were studied. Seventy-three goats of various breeds were divided into six groups with the treatments of control, monensin and decoquinate. Half of the goats were harvested at day 45 and the rest at day 60. The second harvest monensin group had a larger percentage of the goat carcass as the hind leg (P Supplementation of permanent pasture with sunn hemp forage or concentrate feed were compared for influences on growth, carcass traits, and meat properties of kid meat goats. Goats that were finished on concentrate had a heavier dressing percentage and heavier cuts (P Type of packaging alters the color and shelf life of meat during retail display. The M. Longissimus dorsi of 24 goat carcasses were randomly assigned to treatments of air-permeable and moisture-impermeable overwrap, vacuum, or nitrite embedded film packaging for 0, 3, 6, 9, and 12 days of retail display. The muscles in nitrite embedded film had greater a* values indicating a brighter red color. Muscles in vacuum packaging with conventional or nitrite embedded film had lower rates of lipid oxidation at Day 12 (

The Degree of Using Authentic Evaluation by International Schools Teachers in the Middle Schools from Their Viewpoint in Aljama ‘a District

This study aimed to identify the degree of using of authentic evaluation by teachers of international schools in the middle school from the viewpoint of the teachers themselves in Aljama ‘a district. The study used the descriptive approach, through the development of the study tool, which is a questionnaire consisting of 50 paragraphs distributed in (5) fields, after confirming its sincerity and consistency. The sample of the study consisted of 360 male and female teachers of the middle school, who were chosen from international schools in Aljama ‘a district. The results of the study showed that the degree of use of international school teachers to realistic evaluation in the middle school from the point of view of the teachers themselves was high, as it showed the presence of a statistically significant difference in the degree of use of international school teachers due to the gender variable in favor of females, and the absence of a statistically significant difference attributed to the variable (experience) and the interaction between the two variables (gender and experience), and the absence of statistically significant differences attributed to the variable for academic specialization. The study suggested several recommendations, the most important of which is to enhance and encourage teachers to use realistic evaluation as an alternative to traditional evaluation because it has a great impact in increasing the interaction between the teacher and the student and thus increasing the desired results from the education process.

Regional pragmatic variation in the use of the discourse marker pues in informal talk among university students in Quito (Ecuador), Santiago (Chile) and Seville (Spain)

The discourse marker pues in spoken Spanish has been studied extensively in Peninsular Spanish (cf. Fuentes Rodríguez 1987; Portolés 1989; Garcés Gómez 1992). There is also a growing body of studies on pues in Latin American varieties of Spanish (cf. Zavala 2001; Travis 2005; Vázquez Carranza 2013). Less attention, however, has been given to this discourse marker in Chilean and Ecuadorian Spanish (cf. Poblete 1998; Olbertz 2013). Taking a variational pragmatics perspective (Schneider and Barron 2008; Placencia 2011; Schneider and Placencia forthcoming), this paper examines the impact of region in the use of pues among university students in Quito (Ecuador), Santiago (Chile) and Seville (Spain). It is based on a corpus of 60 role-play interactions within each location eliciting advice-giving and complaint talk in –SD (social distance) –P (power) scenarios. The paper looks at variation in relation to form, position and distribution relating to turns and sections of the conversations. It also looks at the function of pues across data sets, noting its use as both a connector and an operator (Fuentes Rodríguez 2003, 2009), and thus highlighting the close interconnection between position and discursive function. Some shared features as well as features of variation were observed. Concerning function, for example, pues was found to occur as both a connector and an operator across varieties; however, we found a clear preponderance of pues as an operator in Quito and Santiago, and of pues as a connector in Seville
