VERSE 2Bridget paused awhile, then said with a smile,Sure you’ve been after me for days,With your blarney talk, that you brought from Cork,Faith and it’s you, has coaxing ways;”Then Michael said, with a twinkle in his eye,“Look at that cloud in the sky, my!”When she turned to look, quick a kiss he took,Ah, ha, ha, ha, said he, “goodbye.” CHORU

    Best-Sellers in Portugal: the case of Bridget Jones

    Portugal continua a consumir em grande quantidade ficção traduzida. Em 2001, um dos maiores ĂȘxitos foi O DiĂĄrio de Bridget Jones, de Helen Fielding, obra que fez rir milhares de pessoas mesmo antes do filme, que saiu no mesmo ano. Contudo, o humor desta obra Ă© culturalmente muito especĂ­fico, baseado numa rede semiĂłtica que sĂł pode ser apreciada por quem vive dentro da cultura de origem. Qual foi a polĂ­tica da tradutora relativa a estes elementos tĂŁo dificilmente traduzĂ­veis? Conseguiu transmitir as complexidades da sociedade contemporĂąnea britĂąnica? Ou serĂĄ que houve outro motivo menos definido por detrĂĄs desta apropriação e que teria a ver com o modo de representar o Outro neste vasto mundo globalizado

    Wireless Spam This Way Comes: An Analysis of the Spread of Wireless Spam and the Present and Proposed Measures Taken to Stop It, 22 J. Marshall J. Computer & Info. L. 229 (2003)

    Spam in the form of unsolicited unwanted e-mail is already a recognized concern in the United States. However, a different type of spam, wireless spam, is starting to make its way to the United States. Wireless spam targets items cell phones with text messaging capabilities, pagers, and personal digital assistants (PDAs). These devices tend to be heavily relied on by their respective owners who bring these devices wherever they go, so to receive wireless spam represents a greater level of privacy intrusion. This article analyzes the various legislative measures that have been considered to regulate spam. It recognizes that most of these legislative measures do not take into account the inevitable arrival of wireless spam. Advocating a proactive stance, this article suggests an integrated bill that would incorporate the strongest parts of each legislative measure considered. The final bill the article recommends would carry heavy fines for violations, higher statutory amounts that states or individuals may recover as damages, and the scope of the bill would include wireless spam

    Auditory Information in the Form of a Scratching Sound Enhances the Effects of the Rubber Hand Illusion

    Get PDF
    The body schema describes an internal representation of the body in space, and is generated from a number of different sense modalities such as vision and proprioception. Botvinick and Cohen\u27s rubber hand illusion (1998) demonstrates the relative contributions of vision, tactile perception and proprioception to body awareness. In this illusion, a participant\u27s real hand is concealed from view and a prosthetic rubber hand is seen in its place. An experimenter simultaneously administers tactile stimulation to both the seen rubber hand and participant\u27s actual hidden hand. The combination of this visual and tactile information overrides proprioceptive cues to body perception, creating a sense of ownership of the rubber hand. The present experiment extends research on the sensory inputs to the body schema by employing the rubber hand illusion to investigate the role of auditory information in construction of the body schema. Tactile stimulation was administered with sandpaper while a prerecorded scratching noise played from a concealed speaker. We found that the inclusion of a sound cue heightened the effects of the illusion and caused participants to more readily accept the rubber hand into the body schema. The findings of this study contribute to the existing understanding of body perception by demonstrating the influence of the auditory system in limb localization

    Differences in Thermal Tolerance Between Two Thermally Isolated and Genetically Indistinct Populations of \u3ci\u3eParagnetina Media\u3c/i\u3e (Walker) (Plecoptera: Perlodidae)

    The critical thermal maximum (CTM) of Paragnetina media (Walker) (Plecoptera: Perlodidae) was studied at two sites of the Big Sable River in northwestern Lower Michigan during summer 2013. The sites were separated by ~8 km and differed in temperature by ~1°C in the early spring to ~5°C in mid-summer. Individual P. media specimens from the warm site had consistently higher CTM when acclimated to the mean temperature of the two sites for 3 days prior to experimental trials during May, June, and July. When acclimated for an additional 3 days to a higher or lower temperature, this thermal disadvantage disappeared. Groups of individuals from both sites simultaneously acclimated to both site temperatures for 3 days exhibited similar CTMs, except that cold site specimens acclimated to the cold temperature had a lower CTM than the other treatments. Sequencing of the CO1 gene revealed that nearly 75% of specimens shared a single haplotype, which was found in both warm and cold site individuals. Our results suggest that both long term and short term thermal history can influence thermal tolerance within populations of the same species that do not appear genetically distinct
