Pedagogical approaches and journalism education provided by international media support in Somalia: a case study
International media organizations to support journalism education in Somalia have been participating actively in the reconstruction of the local media landscape followed by the withdrawal of Al-Shabaab troops in 2011. Although regular since then, the presence of international support has been changing along with the years, with different organizations coming and going, attempting to bring their respective approaches following the dynamics of the local development. The programmes for journalism training provided by the Finnish organization Vikes comprise this case study due to their distinctive feature in comparison with its homologous organizations that have been or are currently running educational projects in Somalia, given Vikes's participatory and peer-learning methods. The present research investigated Vikes's educational approaches and the purposes behind the organization’s training programmes from their inception, in 2014, until the first quarter of 2020. The theoretical framework of the study considered prominent conceptions of the Freirean Critical Pedagogy to observe the role of the facilitators, also called trainers, as well as Vikes's proposals for journalism education in collaboration with its Somali local partners, such as the national broadcasting channel SNTV and journalists’ unions. The data collected from a series of classified and issued documents in parallel to nine one-to-one interviews with Vikes's facilitators and insiders were analysed by the means of a mixed technique of descriptive narrative. The data analysis intended to achieve an in-depth understanding of the logic and functions behind the training programmes. Meanwhile, the discussion of the research focused on the characteristics related to how and what was taught within Vikes's educational project in the context of the period framed
Random Primordial Magnetic Fields and the Gas Content of Dark Matter Halos
We recently predicted the existence of random primordial magnetic fields
(RPMF) in the form of randomly oriented cells with dipole-like structure with a
cell size and an average magnetic field . Here we investigate models
for primordial magnetic field with a similar web-like structure, and other
geometries, differing perhaps in and . The effect of RPMF on the
formation of the first galaxies is investigated. The filtering mass, , is
the halo mass below which baryon accretion is severely depressed. We show that
these RPMF could influence the formation of galaxies by altering the filtering
mass and the baryon gas fraction of a halo, . The effect is particularly
strong in small galaxies. We find, for example, for a comoving B_0=0.1\muG,
and a reionization epoch that starts at and ends at , for
at , the becomes severely depressed for
M<10^7\msun, whereas for the becomes severely depressed only
for much smaller masses, M<10^5\msun. We suggest that the observation of
and at high redshifts can give information on the intensity and
structure of primordial magnetic fields.Comment: 7 pages, 10 figures, accepted for publication in MNRAS (several

A note on parallel mean curvature surfaces and Codazzi operators
We present an intrinsic Klotz-Osserman type theorem for surfaces in terms of
Codazzi operators. Additionally, utilizing Simons' formula, we investigate
surfaces with parallel mean curvature with non-positive Gaussian curvature in
product spaces
Auto-associação do colato de sódio (nac) em misturas com dodecilsulfato de sódio (sds) e poli(oxietileno) (peo)
TCC (graduação) - Universidade Federal de Santa Catarina. Centro de Ciências Físicas e Matemáticas. Curso de Química.As propriedades de misturas de poli(oxietileno) (PEO) e colato de sódio (NaC) em solução tampão tris/HCl, pH 9,00, 25oC foram aqui investigadas por meio de condutividade elétrica e medidas de tensão superficial. Para ter-se suporte consistente na discussão dos perfis de condutividade específica e medidas de tensão superficial para a mistura PEO-NaC, foram feitos experimentos paralelos com o sistema já conhecido PEO-dodecil sulfato de sódio (SDS). Também foram realizados experimentos com misturas de NaC e SDS na ausência e em presença de PEO. As medidas dos parâmetros de associação, concentração micelar crítica (cmc), concentração de agregação crítica (cac), o ponto de saturação do polímero (psp) e outras características como a inclinação nos perfis de condutividade, o efeito da concentração do polímero nos parâmetros cac e psp e a importância da associação polímero surfactante foram aqui investigadas. Os resultados foram expressos em termos de gráficos de condutividade específica e tensão superficial versus a concentração dos surfactantes. Teorias baseadas em conceitos de micelização de mistura de surfactantes foram aplicadas para simular a variação da concentração crítica micelar função na mistura. Os resultados levaram à conclusão de que não existe a convencional interação entre polímero-surfactante para o sistema PEO-NaC. No entanto, a adição de SDS a mistura regenera o processo associativo formando complexo PEO-SDS-NaC, cujas características estruturais e físico químicas são fortemente dependentes das frações molares dos surfactantes
A Valorização da Enfermagem no Enfrentamento da COVID-19
Currently, Nursing is the profession that represents the largest health workforce in the world, according to the World Health Organization (WHO), and was considered, for the 17th consecutive year, according to the research carried out by the Gallup Organization, to most reliable and ethical profession among all evaluated. In Brazil, according to data from the Federal Nursing Council (COFEN), there are more than 2.3 million nursing professionals (including nurses, technicians, assistants and midwives) who work in the scope of care, management, teaching and research.Atualmente a Enfermagem é a profissão que representa a maior força de trabalho na área da saúde no mundo, segundo a Organização Mundial de Saúde (OMS), e foi considerada, pelo 17º ano consecutivo, de acordo com a pesquisa realizada pela Organização Gallup, a profissão mais confiável e ética dentre todas as avaliadas. No Brasil, conforme dados com Conselho Federal de Enfermagem (COFEN), existem mais de 2,3 milhões de profissionais da Enfermagem (incluindo enfermeiros, técnicos, auxiliares e parteiras) que atuam no âmbito da assistência, da gestão, do ensino e da pesquisa
