La tesi analitza set pel·lícules documentals de propoganda que sota el títol genèric de "Why We Fight" va produir el director Frank Capra per a l'exèrcit nord-americà, durant la Segona Guerra Mundial. La seva anàlisi permet d'establir quins són els trets ideològics bàsics dels Estats Units i fer un recorregut per la producció cinematogràfica nord-americana de finals dels anys 30 i principis del quaranta. / The thesis analyses "Why We Fight", seven propaganda documentaries films that Frank Capra produced by the American army, during the Second World War. The thesis establishes the main ideological sources of the American think and permits to know some of the most important American films produced during the last years of 30th decade and the first years of 40th.

Data on caprine tuberculosis in Brazil and its importance for public health are scarce. Therefore, the purpose of this study was to investigate the occurrence and examine epidemiological aspects of tuberculosis in dairy goat herds in the Triângulo Mineiro and Alto Paranaíba mesoregion in the state of Minas Gerais, Brazil. Two hundred and thirty-three goats from seven dairy farms were tuberculinized using the comparative cervical tuberculin test, taking as reference the procedures and interpretation criteria of standard results for this species. Of the animals subjected to the test, 1.29% (3/233) reacted positively, 2.14% (5/233) showed inconclusive reactions, and 96.57% (225/233) showed no reaction. All the goats that tested positive and one showing an inconclusive response were necropsied. Samples of lymph nodes, liver, lung and kidney presenting alterations were collected for a histopathological examination (hematoxylin-eosin). Material removed from abscesses and lymph node fragments were cultured in Stonebrink and Petragnani culture media. An epidemiological inquiry was carried out to analyze risk factors on the farms. The necropsied animals did not exhibit macroscopic lesions suggestive of tuberculosis or any histopathological alterations, nor did the cultures show Mycobacterium sp. growth. The goats prevalence rate to tuberculin reaction was 1.29%, which may represent a zoonotic risk in this mesoregion since these are dairy herds. The interpretation of the epidemiological records, allied to the results of the tuberculinization procedure, indicated positive reagents only on a farm where fresh cow milk was fed to newborn goat kids. / Dados referentes à tuberculose caprina no Brasil e sua importância em saúde pública são escassos. Diante disso, este trabalho teve por objetivos investigar a ocorrência e pesquisar aspectos epidemiológicos da tuberculose em rebanhos leiteiros caprinos na mesorregião do Triângulo Mineiro e Alto Paranaíba, MG. Foram tuberculinizados 233 caprinos provenientes de sete propriedades leiteiras, utilizando-se o teste cervical comparativo, tomando-se como referência os procedimentos e critérios de interpretação de resultados padronizados para esta espécie. Dos animais submetidos ao teste, 1,29% (3/233) reagiram positivamente, 2,14% (5/233) apresentaram reações inconclusivas e 96,57% (225/233) não reagiram. Todos os caprinos positivos e um com resposta inconclusiva foram submetidos à necropsia. Amostras de linfonodos, fígado, pulmão e rim que apresentaram alterações foram colhidos para exame histopatológico (Hematoxilina-Eosina). Material proveniente de abscessos e fragmentos de linfonodos foi submetido à cultura em meio de Stonebrink e Petragnani. Um inquérito epidemiológico foi procedido para análise dos fatores relacionados à ocorrência de tuberculose nas propriedades. Não foram encontradas lesões macroscópicas sugestivas de tuberculose nos animais necropsiados, nem alterações histopatológicas. Também não houve crescimento de micobactérias na cultura. A taxa de reatividade à tuberculina dos caprinos foi de 1,29 %. Por se tratar de rebanhos leiteiros, a ocorrência de tuberculose pode representar risco zoonótico na mesorregião do Triângulo Mineiro e Alto Paranaíba, MG. A interpretação dos registros epidemiológicos, associada aos resultados da tuberculinização constatou reagentes positivos somente na propriedade onde se utilizou leite bovino in natura para alimentar cabritos recém nascidos, porém a ocorrência da tuberculose não pode ser confirmada nesses caprinos. / Mestre em Ciências da Veterinárias

No. of bitstreams: 1 Andrea Paiva Botelho Lapenda Moura.pdf: 326144 bytes, checksum: 620eeb1d70babd2fa43af8e1560d7095 (MD5) Previous issue date: 2006-02-20 / Conselho Nacional de Pesquisa e Desenvolvimento Científico e Tecnológico - CNPq / Evaluation of microbiological quality of chilled and in natural goat meat sold in public/private markets and supermarkets of Recife concerning Staphylococcus aureus counting, total and thermotolerant coliforms,identification and typing of Salmonella spp, was the objective of this study. Antimicrobial sensibility profile in vitro of Staphylococcus aureus and Salmonella spp samples and the correlation between the simultaneous presence of faecal coliforms and Salmonella spp. were also performed. The study was carried out at six public/private markets and nine supermarkets of Recife, which were selected according to the administrative division of Local Authority Healthy General Office in six sanitary districts. A total of 24 samples of goat meat, 14 proceeded from public/private markets in natura and 10 chilled ones from supermarkets. Samples were processed using methodologies recommended by the Agriculture, Pecuary and Provision Ministry. Results demonstrated that 11 samples (45,83%) presented positive coagulasis staphylococcus (SCP) varying from 6.7 x 103 to 1.4 x 106 UFC/g, corresponding to 27 isolated from a total of 89. In total coliforms analyses, five samples (20.83%) presented satisfactory sanitary conditions and 19 (79.16%) had countings varying from 4.3 x 103 to 3.7 x 107, thermotolerants coliforms were detected in 15 (62.5%), which countings varied from 2 x 104 to 2.5 x 107 UFC/g and nine samples (37.5%) presented satisfactory sanitary conditions. Presence of Salmonella spp., was confirmed at seven samples (29.17%) in which eight sorovares were typed: four (50%) Salmonella enterica subsp houtenae (O:53), two (25%) S. Anatum, one (12.50%) S.Rubislaw and one (12, 50%) S. Derby. No correlation was observed among coliforms and Salmonella presure. Antimicrobial profile sensibility showed that S. aureus were sensitive to norfloxacin and vancomicin (100%), tetraciclin and sulpha + trimetoprim (96.30%) and oxacilin (87.50%) and 100 % of Salmonella spp. samples were sensitive norfloxacin, 75% sulpha + trimetoprim and 62.5% tetraciclin. It is concluded that goat meat sold at markets and supermarkets of Recife presented undesirable microbiological patterns emphasizing the importance of a strong supervision at the productive goat meat chain as well as a revision of the Resolution of Collective Management from the National Agency of Sanitary Vigilance, (RDC, n°12/2001) which does not establish microbiological patterns for the coliforms and Staphylococcus spp countings in chilled and in natura goat meat. / Objetivou-se com este estudo avaliar a qualidade microbiológica da carne caprina in natura e resfriada, comercializada em mercados públicos/privados e supermercados na Cidade do Recife, quanto a contagem de Staphylococcus aureus, coliformes totais e termotolerantes, e identificação e tipificação de Salmonella spp. Realizou-se, também, o perfil de sensibilidade antimicrobiana in vitro de amostras de Staphylococcus aureus e Salmonella spp e a correlação entre a presença simultânea de coliformes fecais e Salmonella spp. O estudo foi realizado em seis mercados públicos/privados e nove supermercados da Cidade do Recife, selecionados seguindo a divisão administrativa da Secretaria de Saúde do Município em seis Distritos Sanitários. Foram analisadas 24 amostras de carne caprina, sendo 14 in natura procedentes de mercados públicos/privados e 10 resfriadas de supermercados. As amostras foram processadas utilizando metodologias preconizadas pelo Ministério da Agricultura, Pecuária e Abastecimento. Os resultados demonstraram que 11 (45,83%) amostras apresentaram contagens de estafilococos coagulase positiva (SCP) variando de 6,7 x 103 a 1,4 x 106 UFC/g, correspondendo a 27 isolados de um total de 89. Para coliformes totais, cinco (20,83%) amostras encontravam-se em condições sanitárias satisfatórias e 19 (79,16%) apresentaram contagens variando de 4,3 x 103 a 3,7 x 107; e para termotolerantes 15 (62,5%) apresentaram contagens variando de 1,2 x 104 a 2,5 x 107 UFC/g e nove (37,5%) encontravam-se em condições sanitárias satisfatórias. Foram confirmadas em sete (29,17%) amostras a presença de Salmonella spp., nas quais foram tipificadas oito sorovares: quatro (50,00%) Salmonella enterica subsp houtenae (O:53), duas (25,00%) S. Anatum, uma (12,50%) S.Rubislaw, uma (12,50%) S. Derby. Não se observou correlação entre as bactérias estudadas. O perfil de sensibilidade antimicrobiana demonstrou que os antibióticos mais indicados para o tratamento de S. aureus foram norfloxacina e vancomicina (100%), tetraciclina e sulfa + trimetoprim (96,30%) e oxacilina (87,50%) e para Salmonella spp. 100% das amostras foram sensíveis à norfloxacina, 75,00% à sulfa + trimetoprim e 62,5% para tetraciclina. Conclui-se que a carne caprina comercializada nos mercados e supermercados da Cidade do Recife apresentou padrões microbiológicos indesejáveis ressaltando a importância da necessidade de uma maior fiscalização na cadeia produtiva da carne caprina bem como rever a Resolução da Diretoria Colegiada da Agência Nacional de Vigilância Sanitária (RDC, n°12/2001) que não estabelece padrões microbiológicas para a contagem de coliformes termotolerantes e Staphylococcus spp. em carne caprina in natura e resfriada.

Ende des 19. Jahrhunderts wurde nahe der Ortschaft Hemmoor (Niedersachsen) ein kaiserzeitlicher Urnenfriedhof entdeckt, aus dem die sogenannten Hemmoorer Eimer stammen. Die vorliegenden 32 Tierknochenreste wurden bei der anthropologischen Bestimmung der Knochenfunde aus sechs Eimern aussortiert. Das wichtigste Fundstück ist ein Hühnerknochenfragment, daß mit seiner Datierung in den Zeitraum zwischen dem Ende des 2. bis zur ersten Hälfte des 3. Jahrhunderts einen wichtigen Nachweis für den Beginn der Haltung dieses Hausgeflügels darstellt. Die weiteren Knochenreste stammen überwiegend von Schafen oder Ziegen. Die Altersbestimmung ergab, daß kaum eines der Tiere älter als zwei Jahre wurde. Bei diesen Stücken fiel auf, daß es sich zumeist um Skelettreste aus den unteren Beinabschnitten handelt, die nur wenig Fleisch tragen. / At the end of the 19th century close of the locality Hemmoor (Lower Saxony) an urn cemetery from the time of the Roman Iron Age was discovered, on that the so-called Hemmoor situla were found. The 32 fragments presented here were found during the anthropological examination of the cremated bone finds from six situlae. The most important piece of the finds is a chicken bone fragment dated into the period between the end of the 2nd up to the first half of the 3rd century. It represents an important evidence for the beginning of the animal husbandry of house poultry. The further bone remainders come predominantly from sheep or goats. The age determination resulted in that no one of the animals became hardly older than two years. In addition it was noticeable that most remainders come from the bones of the lower limbs. That bones carry not a lot of meat.

Earth Matters examines the relationships between alternative religion in North America and the natural world through the twin lenses of the history of religions and cultural anthropology. Throughout, nature remains a contested ground, defined simultaneously the limits of cultural activity and by an increasing expansion of claims to knowledge by scientific discourses. Less a historical review than a series of fugues of thought, Earth Matters engages with figures like the French vitalist, Georges Canguilhem, the American environmentalist, John Muir; the founder of Deep Ecology, Arne Næss; the collaborators on Gaia Theory, James Lovelock and Lynn Margulis; the physicist and New Age scientist, Fritjof Capra; and the Wiccan writer and activist, Starhawk. These subjects move in spirals throughout the thesis: Canguilhem opens the question of vitalism, the search for a source of being beyond the explanations of the emerging sciences. As rationalism expands its dominance across the scientific landscape, this animating force moves into the natural world, to that protean space between the city and the wild and in the environmental thinkers who initially moved along those boundaries. As the twentieth century moves towards a close, mechanistic thinking simultaneously reaches heights of success previously unimagined and collapses under the demand for complexity posed by quantum physics, by research in genetic interactions, by the continued elusive relationship of mind to health. This allows the wild to return inside through the internalization of consciousness sparked by the American New Age, but also provides a new model to understand the natural world as complex zone open to a wide variety of strategies, including the multiplicities of understanding offered through contemporary neopaganisms. Earth Matters argues for the necessity of the notion of ecology, both as an environmental concern but also as an organizing principle for human thought and behavior. Ecologies are by their nature complex and multi-variegated things dependent upon the surprising and unpredictable interaction of radically different organisms, and it is through this model that we are best able to understand not only ourselves but also our communities and our efforts to make sense of the external world.

MSCAGR (Animal Science) / Department of Animal Science / The Boer goat (Capra hircus) is one of the most desirable goat breeds for meat production. The impact of cryopreservation on the viability of its semen depends on the extenders, freezing and thawing methods. This study evaluated the effects on sperm viability in Boer goat semen extended using Bioxcell, Biladyl and Ham’s F10, and frozen in semen straws placed on a rack at 4, 5, 6 or 7 cm above the surface of liquid nitrogen. After storage in liquid nitrogen for 7 days, the frozen semen was thawed at 37 oC for 30 seconds or 90 oC for 5 seconds. Samples of sperm were also frozen to -196 oC in a programmable freezer, as the control regime for the freezing treatments. Sperm morphology, motility and viability were evaluated using the computer aided sperm analysis (CASA) system in a randomised design in which the treatments were in a 3 (extender) X 5 (freezing regime) and X 2 (thawing regime) factorial arrangement. The extenders Bioxcell and Biladyl were affected in the total motility, progressive motility and static (P<0.01), the motility was overall maintained only in straws placed at 5 cm above the liquid nitrogen level, with significant difference for the interaction extender X freezing regime in the total motility (p<0.01), non-progressive motility (p<0.05) and progressive motility (p<0.01), the 37 oC for 30 sec thawing regime had significantly more (P<0.05) in cut-head spermatozoa. Ham’s F10 extender had significantly lower normal spermatozoa (P<0.05) compare to Biladyl and Bioxcell extenders. In conclusion, the extender type, freezing and thawing regime were important factors for consideration in goat semen / NRF

Testing the Seams of the American Dream: Minority Literature and Film in the Early Cold War delineates the concept of the liberal tolerance agenda in early Cold War. The liberal tolerance message of the U.S. government, the Democratic Party, and others endorsed racial tolerance and envisioned the possibility of a future free from racism and inequality. Filmmakers in often disseminated a liberal message similar to that of the politicians in the form of “race problem” films. My shows how these films and the liberal tolerance agenda as a whole promises racial equality to the racial minority in exchange for hard work, patriotism, education, and a belief in the majority culture. My first chapter, “Washing White the Racial Subject: Hollywood’s First Black Problem Film,” performs a close reading of Arthur Laurents 1946 play Home of the Brave, which features a Jewish American protagonist, in conjunction with a reading of the 1949 film version, which has an African American protagonist. The differences between the two texts reveal the slippages in the liberal tolerance agenda and signal the inability of filmmakers to envision racial equality on the big screen. “The American Institution and the Racial Subject,” my second chapter, discusses the 1949 film Pinky as well as Américo Paredes’s George Washington Gómez and Monica Sone’s Nisei Daughter. All of these works suggests that the attainment of education promises entry into the mainstream by racial minorities, yet Paredes and Sone question this process by interpreting it as resulting in the dual segregation of their protagonists. My third chapter, “Earning and Cultural Capital: The Work that Determines Place,” looks at the promise that with hard work anyone can attain the American Dream. I show how the 1951 film Go for Broke!, Ann Petry’s The Street, and José Antonio Villarreal’s Pocho work to dispel this American myth. My final chapter, “The Regrets of Dissent: Blacklists and the Race Question,” examines the 1954 film Salt of the Earth alongside Chester Himes’s If He Hollers Let Him Go and John Okada’s No-No Boy to reveal the dangerous mixture of race and dissent in this era. / text
