O estudo foi realizado com informa??es de parcelas permanentes de invent?rios florestais cont?nuos, conduzidos em povoamentos de clones de Eucalipto localizados no Estado de Minas Gerais. A defini??o dos estratos foi realizada pelo m?todo de minera??o de dados k-means, a partir dos par?metros de equa??es lineares simples de cada talh?o para as vari?veis de povoamento em fun??o da idade. O ?ndice de local para a classifica??o da capacidade produtiva foi calculado para cada talh?o e a sua determina??o foi feita utilizando o modelo de Schumacher. A classifica??o de talh?es com uma (36 meses) ou duas medi??es, (48 meses) foi realizada com o c?lculo da dist?ncia euclidiana para as vari?veis de povoamento do talh?o com rela??o ? m?dia do estrato definido pelo k-means. Foi ajustado para os dados de um mesmo conjunto de talh?es o modelo de Clutter e algumas alternativas com a substitui??o de vari?veis explicativas, bem como o modelo proposto por Oliveira. O desempenho dos modelos foi avaliado pela raiz quadrada do erro m?dio, bias %, AIC, BIC e gr?ficos com a dispers?o dos res?duos. Com o intuito de verificar se o m?todo k means foi eficiente na forma??o de estratos, procedeu se com o teste White para o ajuste dos modelos de ?rea basal e volume. O modelo de Clutter apresentou estimativas volum?tricas precisas com a estratifica??o usando o m?todo k-means. N?o verificou-se a viola??o de homocedasticidade de vari?ncias para a maioria dos estratos gerados pelo m?todo k-means. A altura total m?dia explicou com melhor desempenho a varia??o volum?trica do povoamento. A classifica??o de talh?es florestais com a dist?ncia euclidiana entre as vari?veis de povoamento apresentou resultados diferentes quanto a idade de refer?ncia. As estimativas projetadas com a classifica??o aos 48 meses obtiveram resultados mais consistentes do que as projetadas com 36 meses. / Disserta??o (Mestrado) ? Programa de P?s-Gradua??o em Ci?ncia Florestal, Universidade Federal dos Vales do Jequitinhonha e Mucuri, 2014. / ABSTRACT The work had as object to propose a forest populations stratification methodology, to test the Clutter model using other independent variables, to employ the model proposed by Oliveira in 2009 and to propose an alternative to the performance of growth prognosis and populations productions with one or two forest inventory measurements. The study was performed with permanent parcels of continuous forest inventories, conducted in Eucalyptus clones populations located in Minas Gerais. The stratums definition was performed using the method of data mining k-means, from the simple linear equations parameters of each plot for the population variables according to the age. The local index to classify the productive capability was calculated for each plot and its determination was done using the Schumacher model. The plot classification with one (36 months) or two measurements (48 months) was made with the calculus of the Euclidian distance for the plot population variables in relation to the stratum average determined by the k-mean method. The Clutter model was adjusted for the data of the same group of plots and some alternatives with the substitution of instructive variables, and also with the model proposed by Oliveira. The models development was evaluated by the square root of the average error, bias %, AIC, BIC and graphics with residues dispersion. Intending to verify if the k-means method was efficient in the stratums formation, they continued to the White test for the adjustment of the basal area and volume models. The Clutter model has presented precise volumetric estimates with the stratification using the k-means method. Homoscedasticity variances violation was not shown for the majority of the stratums generated by the k?-means method. The average total height has better explained the population volumetric variation. The forest plots classification with the Euclidian distance among the population variables has shown different results in relation to the reference age. The estimates projected with the classification at 48 months have gotten more consistent results than the ones projected at 36 months.

The goal of this graduation thesis was to find out the influence of milking by automatic milking system (AMS) to the physiological needs of dairy cows within 30 minutes after milking. Ethological study covered the needs for feed intake, water intake and need for lying down. In the next part were obtained data on performance of dairy cows and time data of milking (Preparation time for milking, milking time, and time in the milking box). For determination of an impact of various technologies on dairy cows, the results were compared with the data obtained on the farm with conventional milking technology (auto-tandem parlor). The need of feed intake in 30 minutes after milking was found in the barn with AMS at 75.51 % of dairy cows, in the barn containing auto-tandem parlor it was 84.37 % of dairy cows. Highest rate of silage intake after milking had dairy cows milked by conventional way. The need of water intake was found out in the barn with AMS at 41.79 % of dairy cows and in the barn containing auto-tandem parlor it was 33.45 % of dairy cows. Higher rate of water after milking had dairy cows on the farm using the milking robot. In terms of the needs of feed intake and water within 30 minutes after milking were found in both compared technology almost identical values, 28.23 % on the farm with AMS and 27.27 % on the farm with auto-tandem parlor. From this common intake was observed earlier water intake of animals on both farms of more than 80% percent. The percentage of the cows, which needed to lie down after milking, was found in both technologies very low. On the farm with AMS it was 3.7 % and on the farm with auto-tandem parlor 5.8 %. On the farm, where AMS is used, we could evaluate the physiological needs within 30 minutes after milking in the various parts of a day. The need to feed intake was the highest between 6pm and 12 am) and the lowest in the morning. The need of water intake after milking was highest in the morning between 6am and 12 pm and the lowest between midnight 12am and 6 am. The need of lie down after milking was highest between midnight and 6am and the lowest between noon and 6 pm. Milk yield per milking was 12.89 kg on the farm with AMS and 13.35 kg on the farm with auto-tandem parlor. The average daily milk yield was on the farm with AMS 36.47 kg and 26.7 kg on the farm with auto-tandem parlor. Lower milk yield per milking and higher average milk yield per day on the other hand on the farm with AMS is caused by a higher frequency of milking, among other factors. Preparation time for milking was 2:24 min with AMS and 2:02 with conventional type of milking. The time itself was detected in both methods over 5 minutes. With conventional type of milking the times were longer by almost 30 s (5:41min). The time in milking box was 7:07 min in the technology AMS and 8:16 min in the conventional system of milking. Frequency of using of milking robot during the day reached the lowest rate between 4 pm and 6 pm and between 4 am and 8 am. The increase in the number of milking after 6 pm relates with silage intake at this time. During comparison of analyzed technologies was found insignificant difference in the physiological needs within 30 minutes after milking. For verification of these conclusions it is important to increase amount of farms with conventional milking system.

Apologetic has been an ongoing activity in the Church since the apostolic times. The eighteenth century witnessed one of the most famous apologists in Christian history: John Wesley. Wesley, a subscribed minister in the Church of England, defended himself against criticism from his fellow churchmen when they charged him with differing from the ‘common interpretation’ of the Thirty-Nine Articles. This thesis examines critiques of John Wesley and Methodism, and how Wesley dealt with them. It concentrates on the debates between John Wesley and three of his major opponents; namely, Josiah Tucker, Thomas Church, and ‘John Smith’.The defensive position in which Wesley found himself in following criticism from fellow clergymen shaped his methodology throughout his ministry when defending Christianity in general and ‘Methodism’ in particular; consequently, placing apologetic at the centre of his writings. When defending ‘Methodism’ against those who attacked it as an enthusiastic aberration, this thesis demonstrates that Wesley customarily appealed to the formularies of the Church of England: The Articles, the Homilies and the Common Book of Prayer. To those who attacked his doctrine of salvation by faith alone, Wesley responded by appealing to the formularies, and demonstrated that his interpretation of the formularies was in accordance with the Church Fathers, and with the compilers of the formularies. By excluding good works as conditions of justification and rejecting the charge of ‘enthusiasm to the highest degree’, Wesley showed that his doctrines, including salvation by faith alone were grounded in Scripture and took reason into account in their elaboration. Despite some hesitations in defining his doctrine of perfection, Wesley showed that he did not teach sinless perfection. When defending his connections with the Moravians, Wesley demonstrated that he rejected some Moravian tenets that did not meet his consent. Wesley contended that ‘Methodism’ contributed to Church renewal and robust Christian faith in individuals. When dealing with the ‘perceptible inspiration’ or the ‘witness of the Spirit’. Wesley based his arguments on Scripture and his interpretation of the formularies. Wesley insisted that the Holy Spirit inwardly convinces the recipient that their sins are forgiven and that they are a child of God. According to Wesley, the Holy Ghost witnesses to the believer directly. When facing those who believed that miracles had ceased with the apostles, and who argued that God gave the apostles an ‘implicit faith’ which allowed them to work miracles with the aim of establishing the church at that precise time, and God had withdrawn the gift after the fulfillment of the mission, Wesley rejected any possibility of an ‘implicit faith’ and insisted that God still worked miracles in the eighteenth century. All the correspondence between Wesley and his first three major opponents in the early life of ‘Methodism’ is critically examined in this thesis. Wesley’s hesitations when building up his doctrines are also highlighted. This thesis instructs us that when facing adversity Wesley in the defence of ‘Methodism’, frequently adapted his methodology to meet new circumstances.

This project emerged from previous research on beliefs, influences on behaviors, and beliefs interaction with reform. Previous research stated connections existed between teacher beliefs and teacher behaviors but criticized the use of broad, general constructs and traditional methodologies. This study challenged the portrayal of beliefs as isolated and static and attempted to understand connections between beliefs and behaviors. Utilizing qualitative methodologies, this study investigated the following research questions. 1. What insight can be gained on the nature of beliefs through analysis of consistent and inconsistent behaviors? 2. How do teacher’s beliefs interact with behaviors? This research adopted a methodology that connected interviews and instructional episodes as the informative data. The power of the examination of beliefs focused on (a) the teacher’s beliefs, (b) actual practices, and (c) the connections between beliefs and observed behaviors. A more accurate collection of beliefs provided an understanding on how these beliefs actualized in practice. This allowed for an in-depth analysis of the interaction of beliefs and behaviors that provided more explanatory power of the relationship, often lacking in other studies. Specifically, findings demonstrated that the beliefs emerge from previous experience, interact with each other, and influence the behaviors of the teacher

Serier har sedan länge betraktats som ett andra klassens kulturella medium,med ett dåligt rykte som enkla och lättförståeliga. Majoriteten av seriemagasin ligger fortfarande i ett väntrum någonstans, för att då och då ytligt bläddras igenom; de tas inte på allvar. Och alternativen lyser med sin frånvaro; tillhör de inte skaran som ytligt bläddras igenom syns de nästan inte till överhuvudtaget. Uppsatsen tar sig dels an hur "de andra" ser ut, de som vågade och ville. Dels fokuserar den på vad som egentligen finns i de etablerade, ”lättförståeliga” seriemagasinen för att slutligen jämföra de båda med varandra.

This thesis examines the intersection between the performance of Jewish religious rituals in real life and their performance in theatre, as exemplified through a case study of S. An-sky’s seminal and often adapted play: The Dybbuk: Or Between Two Worlds. In addition to An-sky’s original text, this thesis takes Tony Kushner’s 1997 adaptation A Dybbuk: or Between Two Worlds and Soulpepper Theatre’s 2015 adaptation The Dybbuk, Or Between Two Worlds as its subjects. By utilizing dramaturgical analysis, performance analysis, and historiography, this thesis names, describes, and analyzes the major techniques used to translate the performance of Jewish rituals from the real world onto the stage as well as the dramaturgical and performative effects these rituals enact. This analysis is further contextualized through the theoretical lenses of adaptation, translation, and Jewish Studies. This thesis examines not only how a playwright and/or director translates the performance of Jewish rituals onto the stage and how those rituals impact the construction and performance of the text, but also how this performative practice can both introduce and reinforce Jewish cultural and religious knowledge in contemporary North American society.
