De cantor a maestro: viagens e horizontes (auto)biográficos do barítono Raimundo Pereira

Este artigo objetiva compreender a relação entre migrações e viagens na formação musical e artística de Raimundo Pereira, por meio de reflexões sobre a (auto)biografia “Muito prazer: sirva-se Raimundo Pereira Confidencial”, publicada em 2004, articulada com entrevistas realizadas com dois docentes, um poeta e um músico – pessoas que perpassaram a vida desse sujeito. Nesta perspectiva, interroga-se: como o estudante negro ampliou e consolidou suas redes de sociabilidade em movimentos migratórios? Como se deu sua formação artística em viagens? Como as narrativas (auto)biográficas do cantor gay apresentam-se como táticas de res(ex)istência e empoderamento? A partir dos documentos escritos e orais, foi possível interpretar que, embora o barítono não assine o livro e nem use o recurso da escrita delegada, o próprio ato de narrar uma (auto)biografia, suas migrações e viagens, configura-se num gesto de afirmação, resistência e empoderamento do uso de sua voz para além do ato de cantar

¿Qué lugar ocupan los videolaringos en el manejo de la vía aérea en el momento actual? The Role of Videolaryngoscopy in Airway Management. Michael Aziz, MD.

Los videolaringoscopios (VL) llevan entre nosotros mucho tiempo, pero es en estos últimos 10 años cuando se ha observado un auge en su uso, gracias a los múltiples avances tecnológicos, que han mejorado tanto la calidad de la imagen como la facilidad de uso. En este artículo el autor revisa diferentes situaciones en las que se puede utilizar un VL, y la evidencia científica que existe sobre ellas. En los últimos años en el campo de la vía aérea han aparecido múltiples dispositivos ópticos nuevos que nos facilitan la intubación, ya que son dispositivos que permiten visualizar la glotis de forma indirecta. Con ellos se precisa establecer solamente una línea del eje laríngeo y faríngeo, más fácil de conseguir. Al existir tantos resulta difícil conocer todos, sus ventajas e inconvenientes. Para evitar perderse entre tanto nuevo dispositivo, se agradece una guía que nos aconseje sobre posibles situaciones con un grado de garantía. Este artículo nos ofrece una somera revisión según situaciones, viendo que aporta de nuevo los VL. El autor ha revisado múltiples artículos, pero no ha comparado de forma estadística la bibliografía existente

Television, physical activity, diet, and body weight status: the ARIC cohort

<p>Abstract</p> <p>Background</p> <p>Television (TV) watching is the most common leisure activity in the United States. Few studies of adults have described the relationship between TV and health behaviors such as physical activity, diet, and body weight status.</p> <p>Methods</p> <p>Extant data from the Atherosclerosis Risk in Communities (ARIC) Study were analyzed to assess the association of TV with physical activity, diet, and body mass index (BMI) among 15,574 adults at baseline (1986–89) and 12,678 adults six years later. Television, physical activity, and diet were collected with questionnaires and BMI was measured at both time points. Based on baseline TV exposure, adults were categorized into high, medium, and low TV exposure. Linear and logistic regression models were adjusted for gender, age, race-center, smoking, education, and general health.</p> <p>Results</p> <p>Relative to participants who had low TV exposure, those with high TV exposure were more likely to be less physically active and have a poorer dietary profile at baseline and six-years later. Participants with high TV exposure at baseline had a 40% and 31% greater odds of being considered insufficiently active at baseline (1.40, 95% CI 1.26, 1.55), and six years later (1.31, 95% CI 1.18, 1.46). At baseline, high TV exposure was also associated with a 20% to 30% greater odds of being above the median for servings of salty snacks (1.37, 95% CI 1.24, 1.51), sweets (1.26, 95% CI 1.15, 1.38), and sweetened drinks (1.29, 95% CI 1.17, 1.42), and below the median for fruit and vegetable servings (1.36, 95% CI 1.24, 1.50). Higher TV exposure was also cross-sectionally associated with a greater odds for being overweight or obese (1.43, 95% CI 1.29, 1.58). Similar associations were observed between baseline TV exposure and six-year physical activity and diet, but were not observed with BMI after six years follow-up.</p> <p>Conclusion</p> <p>These results support the hypothesis that time spent watching TV is associated with deleterious effects on physical activity, diet, and BMI.</p

PEDAGOGIA EM AMBIENTE NÃO-ESCOLAR: A ATUAÇÃO DO PEDAGOGO NO TRIBUNAL DE JUSTIÇA DO PARÁ.

O presente trabalho é parte da pesquisa “A regulamentação do curso depedagogia e a atuação do pedagogo no Judiciário”. Ele remete à ânsia em tematizar as construções teóricas recentes na área da investigação em educação, na qual o exercício profissional do pedagogo extrapola os liames da docência e se insere em áreas que vão além dos recursos humanos das empresas ou de ações inseridas em projetos e programas, quase sempre com modalidades de cunho formativo, lúdico e recreativo. As breves observações a respeito das políticas públicas educacionais que regulamentam o curso de pedagogia e a consequente formação das instituições de educação superiores visam a estabelecer um debate sobre as transformações no mundo do trabalho envolvendo o profissional da pedagogia, enfocando a atuação dopedagogo no Poder Judiciário. Assumimos o materialismo dialético como principal referência para a nossa pesquisa e utilizamos os procedimentos característicos da pesquisa qualitativa.Palavras-chave: Regulamentação. Formação.

Direct synthesis of HKUST-1 onto cotton fabrics and properties

Metal-organic frameworks are crystalline nanostructures formed by a metal interspersed by an organic binder. These metal-organic materials are examples of nanomaterials applied to textile material in search of new functionalized textiles. Cotton is a cellulosic fiber of great commercial importance, and has good absorption capacity and breathability; however, due to these characteristics, it is susceptible to the development of microorganisms on its surface. This work aims to analyze how the direct synthesis of HKUST-1 in cotton fabric modifies the chemical and physical properties. The material obtained was characterized by scanning electron microscopy to obtain its morphology, by spectrophotometry CIE L*a*b* to verify the color change, by a biological test to verify its resistance to microorganisms and, finally, by a unidirectional traction test to verify the change in its mechanical resistance. Thereby, it was possible to observe the formation of MOFs with the morphology of nanorods, and also, with regard to HKUST-1 in the cotton fabric, when applied, an elimination percentage higher than 99% was observed for both bacteria, E. coli and S. aureus. The presence of MOF was detected even after washing, however, the loss of 75% in the mechanical resistance of the material makes its potential for textile finishing unworkable.Peer ReviewedPostprint (published version

Financiamento do esporte paralímpico no Brasil: convênios

The financial support to the Elite Sports carried out historically through tax exemptions to the sports entities, in recent years has been added to a series of governmental actions, with emphasis on the agreements, the granting of scholarships to athletes and the Sports Incentive Law. This paper aims to describe the investment of federal public resources from agreements in paralympic sports, in addition to identifying their main beneficiaries and the types of expenses incurred. In order to do so, a descriptive research was carried out, using documentary research, in the National High-Performance Sport Secretariat of the Ministry of Sports (SNEAR), for the cataloging of agreements, onlending and decentralization agreements entered into by the federal public administration via SNEAR, to finance Paralympic sports from 2008 to 2016. It has been verified that Brazil has invested resources in the Paralympic sport with greater intensity between 2008 and 2014. However, it was evidenced that the Federal Government does not have systematized information or method to systematize the information on the transfer of financial resources through agreements, which was developed in this study. Other public entities, committees, confederations, leagues, federations, clubs and educational institutions are the destinations of the financial resources of the agreements, which can be applied in 12 different ways. Between 2008 and 2016 there was an increase in the amount of funds invested in Paralympic sports, mainly for the preparation of the Rio 2016 Games. The investments made through agreements are mainly in facilities and sports materials. It is concluded that financial resources of the Federal Government are spent without classification of the actions, entities or public to which such resources are destined. Thus, the systematization of this information, presented in this work, can substantially collaborate with the evaluation and formulation of government policies and actions.O fomento financeiro ao Esporte de Alto Rendimento realizado historicamente por meio de isenções de taxas, tributos e impostos às próprias entidades esportivas, nos últimos anos foi somado a uma série de ações governamentais, com destaque para os convênios, a concessão de bolsas para atletas e a Lei de Incentivo ao Esporte. Este trabalho tem o objetivo de descrever o investimento de recursos públicos federais oriundos de convênios em esportes paralímpicos, além de identificar seus principais beneficiários e os tipos de despesas executadas. Para tanto foi realizada uma pesquisa descritiva, utilizando-se da pesquisa documental, na Secretaria Nacional de Esporte de Alto Rendimento do Ministério do Esporte (SNEAR), para catalogação dos convênios, contratos de repasse e descentralizações celebrados entre a administração pública federal, via SNEAR, para financiamento de esportes paralímpicos, no período de 2008 a 2016. Verificou-se que Brasil tem investido recursos no esporte paralímpico com maior intensidade entre 2008 e 2014. Contudo, evidenciou-se que o Governo Federal não possui informações sistematizadas nem método para sistematizar as informações sobre o repasse de recursos financeiros por meio de convênios, o que foi desenvolvido nesse estudo. Outros entes públicos, os comitês, confederações, ligas, federações, clubes e instituições de ensino são os destinos dos recursos financeiros dos convênios, que podem ser aplicados de 12 diferentes formas. Entre 2008 e 2016 houve crescimento do montante de recursos investidos em esportes paralímpicos, principalmente para preparação dos Jogos Rio 2016. Os investimentos realizados por meio de convênios são principalmente em instalações e materiais esportivos. Conclui-se que recursos financeiros do Governo Federal são dispendidos sem classificação das ações, entidades ou públicos a que são destinados tais recursos. Sendo assim, a sistematização dessas informações, apresentadas nesse trabalho, pode colaborar substancialmente com a avaliação e formulação de políticas e ações governamentais

Esportes radicais no meio ambiente urbano no município de São Paulo

The observation of people looking for squares, streets, climbing walls, benches, walls and ramps around the city to have fun and exercise represents a new context of sports practice that this research seeks to reveal. The objective of this study was to recognize the places and actors of skateboarding, climbing and slakline practices and their motivations for the search of these sports. Exploratory descriptive research was used with 46 subjects, 16 climbers, 20 skaters and 10 slakliners, from the city of São Paulo, who answered a questionnaire developed specifically for these activities. The results showed that: There is predominance of males among the participants, showing a prejudice that still persists in sports practice. Climbers have a higher average age than others, perhaps due to the need for more expensive equipment, greater risks of practice and the need for courses to learn. Skaters on average have been practicing for more time, probably because the skate culture is older and consolidated in São Paulo. It is observed that in slakline all practice less than three years showing that it is a modality still recent in the national scenario. The participants of the research affirm to have learned alone, or with friends and family, evidencing in this aspect that the Physical Education is not considered like initiation. The subjects point out the gain of physical, mental and social benefits in their lives and their intention to continue the practice by quality of life, fun, physical and psychological evolution. Only 10.8% claim to compete, which shows that Extreme Sports are considered from the perspective of voluntary participation. It is concluded that Extreme Sports are being incorporated into the routine of the people, adding a new contour to the body culture, in a search for overcoming, facing challenges, control of risk, pleasure, and quality of life. There is evidence that there is a gap between the graduation in Physical Education professionals and these new practices

Determinantes da inserção de mulheres jovens no mercado de trabalho nordestino.

Constata que as transformações ocorridas a partir da década de 1980 contribuíram para a redução na oferta de empregos e para o aumento dos níveis de exigências com os trabalhadores. Nesse cenário, os jovens e as mulheres foram os mais afetados. Este trabalho tem por objetivo identificar e analisar os determinantes da inserção de mulheres jovens, entre 15 e 24 anos, no mercado de trabalho nordestino. Para isso, utiliza a Pesquisa Nacional por Amostra de Domicílios (PNAD) referente ao ano de 2009 e procede à estimação de um modelo multinomial/ogit, considerando-se três possíveis categorias em que as jovens poderiam se enquadrar: inativa, ativa e empregada e ativa e desempregada. Os resultados indicam que os fatores mais relevantes na inserção das jovens na categoria ativa e empregada foram experiência, escolaridade, renda e existência de filho

ACCESS III: The Nature of Star Formation in the Shapley Supercluster

We present a joint analysis of panoramic Spitzer/MIPS mid-infrared and GALEX ultraviolet imaging of the Shapley supercluster at z=0.048. Combining this with spectra of 814 supercluster members and 1.4GHz radio continuum maps, this represents the largest complete census of star-formation (both obscured and unobscured) in local cluster galaxies to date, reaching SFRs~0.02Msun/yr. We take advantage of this comprehensive panchromatic dataset to perform a detailed analysis of the nature of star formation in cluster galaxies, using several quite independent diagnostics of the quantity and intensity of star formation to develop a coherent view of the types of star formation within cluster galaxies. We observe a robust bimodality in the infrared (f_24/f_K) galaxy colours, which we are able to identify as another manifestation of the broad split into star-forming spiral and passive elliptical galaxy populations seen in UV-optical surveys. This diagnostic also allows the identification of galaxies in the process of having their star formation quenched as the infrared analogue to the UV "green valley" population. The bulk of supercluster galaxies on the star-forming sequence have specific-SFRs consistent with local field specific-SFR-M* relations, and form a tight FIR-radio correlation confirming that their FIR emission is due to star formation. We show that 85% of the global SFR is quiescent star formation within spiral disks, as manifest by the observed sequence in the IRX-beta relation being significantly offset from the starburst relation of Kong et al. (2004), while their FIR-radio colours indicate dust heated by low-intensity star formation. Just 15% of the global SFR is due to nuclear starbursts. The vast majority of star formation seen in cluster galaxies comes from normal infalling spirals who have yet to be affected by the cluster environment.Comment: 17 pages, 9 figures.
