Founded in 1991, HK Magazine was one of the major English-language publications on local affairs, social issues and entertainment listings published weekly in Hong Kong for a quarter of a century. Apart from providing local entertainment information, it also witnessed the rapid social and political changes of Hong Kong when Britain handed over sovereignty of Hong Kong to China in 1997. In July 2013, HK Magazine was sold to the South China Morning Post (SCMP) Group which was subsequently purchased by Alibaba Group in December 2015. However, the SCMP Group announced on 28 September 2016 that the magazine's final issue would be released on 7 October 2016. The closure of the magazine was viewed by many as the loss of a “fun, independent and free-thinking' publication. In response to the huge reaction from the community, the SCMP Group agreed that the content of HK Magazine would be migrated to the SCMP website before the HK Magazine website was removed. It was however revealed that the SCMP website did not preserve the full archive of HK Magazine as promised. A public appeal was launched to help preserve the collective memory of Hong Kong by archiving the back issues of the magazine. Apart from reviewing the discussion arising from the close down of HK Magazine, this paper also addresses the critical role of the library in long term preserving HK Magazine on one hand and providing access to its digital content on the other.

Ett beteende som vi kan återfinna hos många människor är tendensenatt idealisera tidigt uppstigande genom att tillskriva det positivaegenskaper, något vi valt att benämna morgonidealisering. Deninfluerar våra attityder gentemot såväl morgon- som kvällsmänniskoroch kan bidra till uppfattningar som saknar förankring i verkligheten.I en tvärsnittsstudie där vi samlade in data från enkäter ifyllda avrespondenter som var 15 år eller äldre (N = 246), undersökte vi hurutbrett morgonidealisering är i stickprovet, hur det påverkarvälmående, och huruvida det prediceras av kapitalistisk anda (attman besitter kapitalistiska värderingar), tillmötesgående ochsamvetsgrannhet. Vi fann att morgonidealisering inte har någotsamband med välmående, att samvetsgrannhet och kapitalistisk andapredicerar morgonidealisering till viss del och att morgonidealiseringexisterar i vårt stickprov. Vi bör uppmärksamma attmorgonidealisering existerar för att skydda oss mot den snedvridninggentemot olika kronotyper som den medför. Ett sätt att göra detta äratt upplysa allmänheten om att attityden existerar, att den inte ledertill mer välmående och vilka som är särskilt troliga att anammaattityden / The tendency to idealise getting up early in the morning by attributingit with positive qualities is a behaviour we can observe in a lot ofpeople. We call this behaviour morning idealisation. It permeates ourattitudes toward morning people as well as evening people andcontributes to certain prejudice against both. In a cross-sectionalstudy we gathered data from questionnaires completed by respondentsolder than 15 (N = 246). By analyzing the data we looked into howprevalent morning idealisation is in our sample, how it influenceswellbeing, and to what extent it is influenced by spirit of capitalism,agreeableness and conscientiousness. We found that there is noconnection between morning idealisation and wellbeing, that morningidealisation exists in our sample and that morning idealisation couldpartially be explained by spirit of capitalism and conscientiousness.We should acknowledge the existence of morning idealisation in orderto protect ourselves from biases towards different chronotypes. Oneway to do this is to inform people about the existence of morningidealisation, to show that it doesn’t lead to wellbeing and to show whoare particularly prone to pick up the attitude.

The purpose of this thesis is to determine how much the Swedish morning newspaper Dagens Nyheter and the evening newspaper Aftonbladet wrote about refugees and how they represented them during refugee crisis in September 2015 compared with when the border control began in January 2016. The purpose is to investigate how the news selection is been made, what events surrounding refugees became news and how they are described To be able to answer these questions I have combined two methods. The quantitative method used to observe how many articles were written about refugees, count and analize the number of the articles each newspaper produced during the mentioned period. In the qualitative section the rhetorical method by Karlberg & Mral's model (1998) ethos, pathos and logos concepts been used. In order to understand how the writer structured the text to convince the audience. The findnings of this study has been compared by each other and the reulst has showen a compiling differences and similarities between Dagens Nyheter and Aftonbladet. Both newspapers have different flow of news articles during different periods. At some stag in the refugee crisis period in September 2015 Dagens Nyheter and Aftonbladet has shown solidarity with the refugees, but during the border control period in January 2016 both newspapers monitoring and representation of refugees was not as positive and as much as during the refugee crises.

"The development of newspapers in Dallas can be classified into certain definite dates: 1849-1865---the founding of the first newspaper to the Reconstruction period following the Civil War; 1865-1885--the postwar period and the expansion of newspapers; 1885-1906--the development of the present newspapers, the Dallas Morning News and the Dallas Times Herald, and others; 1906-1942--the advent of sensational journalism and the emergence of the newspaper as big business; and 1942 to the present--a decade of unprecedented growth and entrenchment."--leaf iv.

In my diploma thesis I am examining the importance of community circles and morning letters in primary education. I would like to give an explanation of the term community circle especially focusing on the community circles in the programme Step by Step. These were particularly inspiring for me. I am also looking into the community circles from the point of view of the Framework Educational Programme and acquiring key competencies. It is, indeed, in the community circles that the social and communication competencies are developed. The goal of my thesis is above all stating the terms of smooth establishment of a community circle. I hope to offer guidelines for a start-up of community circles and the development of short activities used in morning circles. I also suggest examples of various morning letters useful in any school. Keywords: community circles, morning letter, key competencies, Step by Step program, rules, communication, secure environment

The master thesis called "A comparative study of contemporary morning broadcast Radiozurnal and Radio Impuls" presents broadcasting comparation of this two radio stations. Both of them are the most listened stations in the Czech Republic, they are also the biggest competitors. Radiozurnal is Czech radio's public station and Radio Impuls is commercial station, therefore, thesis is based on the assumption that their program is different. The main part of this master thesis is content analysis, which was made between two weeks in the end of January and in the beginning of February 2019. The morning broadcast of both stations was analyzed on the basis of three reasearch questions, in terms of thematic focus, local focus and genre focus. The analysis includes a comparasion of language style. The research results are compared and shown in charts and graphs. Based on literature, the master thesis also defines specific features of radio broacasting and its genre forms. The specific methodology of morning broadcasting of both station is based on interviews with the editors.

A expansão das áreas cultivadas com cana-de-açúcar no Brasil é evidente, e para um eficaz manejo dessas extensas áreas, é necessário um bom planejamento das operações agrícolas. Nesse sentido, a aplicação de herbicidas pode ocorrer até no período seco do ano e em condições de solo bem distintas. Sabe-se que os diferentes ambientes nos quais os herbicidas são aplicados têm grande influencia em sua eficácia, e entender essas diferenças é importante para se obter o melhor rendimento e se fazer o correto uso dessa excelente ferramenta de manejo. Assim, este trabalho teve como objetivo avaliar o comportamento da formulação comercial contendo os herbicidas diurom + hexazinona + sulfometurom-metílico quando aplicado em solos com texturas contrastantes, além de avaliar a lixiviação desse herbicida e seus componentes e também como condições de restrição hídrica em presença de palha de cana-de-açúcar podem afetar o seu efeito residual e de seus componentes. Foram realizados ao todo 5 experimentos sendo 3 com o uso de curvas de dose-resposta, avaliando-se capim-colchão e corda-de-viola; um com lixiviação em tubos de PVC, avaliando-se corda-de-viola, e um com períodos de restrição hídrica, avaliando-se corda-de-viola e capim-colonião. Os resultados obtidos nos experimentos com as curvas de dose-resposta demonstraram a grande influencia da textura na eficácia do herbicida, com quantidades de argila menores que 30% sendo suficientes para gerar respostas consideravelmente distintas. O experimento com lixiviação demonstrou que as três moléculas do herbicida comportam-se diferentemente no solo, o que também é importante para o seu uso em diferentes ambientes. Os resultados obtidos no experimento com períodos de restrição hídrica em palha de cana-de-açúcar permitem concluir que apesar de as três moléculas comportarem-se diferentemente no ambiente, elas se complementam no controle de plantas daninhas mono e dicotiledôneas, e têm o efeito residual pouco influenciado por períodos de restrição hídrica. / The expansion of areas planted with sugar cane in Brazil is clearly noticeable and a good planning of agricultural operations is necessary for an effective management of these extensive areas. Accordingly, the application of herbicides may occur even in the dry season and in distinctive soil conditions. It is known that the different environments in which the herbicides are applied have great influence on their effectiveness and understanding these differences is an important factor in order to obtain best performance and make proper use of this excellent management tool. Thus, this work aimed to evaluate the behavior of the commercial formulation containing the herbicides diuron + hexazinone + sulfometurom-methyl when applied to soils with contrasting textures, and also to evaluate the leaching of this herbicide and its components as well as how conditions of water restriction with presence of sugarcane staw can affect your residual effect and its components. Five experiments were performed, three of those using dose-response curves, to evaluate crabgrass and morning glory; one with leaching using PVC tubes, evaluating morning glory and one with periods of water restriction, evaluating morning glory and guinea grass. Obtained results of the experiments with the dose-response curves demonstrated the great influence of the texture on the effectiveness of the herbicide, clay amounts of less than 30% being sufficient to generate considerably distinct responses. The experiment with leaching showed that the three molecules behave differently in the soil, which is also important to their use in different environments. Obtained results in the experiment with periods of water restriction on straw sugarcane allow the conclusion that although the three molecules behave differently in the environment, they complement each other in control of mono and dicotyledonous weeds, and they have little residual effect influenced by periods of water restriction.

Denna studie kommer att ta upp public service i Sverige. Bakgrund kring public service och etnicitet presenteras i studien. Problemet som lett till studiens uppkomst är den framkomst främlingsfientliga partier haft i Sverige de senaste åren. Syftet med studien är att undersöka hur etnicitet konstrueras i morgonradioprogrammet Morgonpasset i P3. Detta för att se sambandet mellan text och kontext, samt för att se hur olika etniciteter konstrueras. Studien bidrar också till att fylla det vetenskapliga hål som framkommit under en genomsökning av tidigare studier. Dessa studier inkluderar lokalradio, etnicitet och språk, samt etniciteter i journalistisk.   För att kunna ge en inblick i detta görs en textanalys av det utvalda materialet. Detta med koppling till teori, begrepp och metod. Metoden som valts ut för denna uppsats är CDA, kritisk diskursanalys. CDA kommer inte bara att användas som metod utan även som teori. I teorikapitlet tillkommer även andra teorier. Dessa är orientalism, andrefiering och olika teorier om svenskhet. I analysen behandlas flertalet transkriberade exempel och det framkommer att programledarna på olika sätt konstruerar svenskar som avvikande, avvisande och icke-ambitiösa. Resultatet av studien visar att programledarna i studieobjektet nedvärderar svenskhet och på så sätt skapar de en distans mellan sig själva och de som inte relaterar till svenskhet. Detta gör också att svenskheten som finns upprätthålls. Vidare resulterar detta i att lyssnarna påverkas av språket och de diskurser programledarna framför, vilket på så sätt också påverkar samhällets normer kring hur etnicitet konstrueras. / This study will look into public service in Sweden. The background of public service and ethnicity is being presented. The problem which has led to this study derives from the success of xenophobic parties in Sweden, in the recent years. The aim of this study is to investigate how ethnicity is constructed in the morning radio show, Morgonpasset i P3. This is being done in order to see the connection between text and context and to see how different ethnicities are being constructed. The study also contributes to filling the scientific gap which has been revealed by going through previous studies. These studies include local radio, ethnicity and language, and ethnicities in journalism.   To give an insight into this, the material has been handled through a text analysis. This with connection to theory, tools and method. The method that had been chosen for this study is CDA, critical discourse analysis. CDA is not only used as a method, but also as a theory. In the chapter about theories, other theories are added as well. These theories are orientalism, othering and different theories about swedishness. In the analysis multiple transcribed examples are being looked into. Here it is revealed that the show hosts in different ways are constructing swedishness as being different, rejecting and non-ambitious. The result of the study shows that the hosts of the radio show are downgrading swedishness and therefore distancing themselves and those who do not relate to swedishness. This also results in that the already existing swedishness is maintained. Furthermore, this results in that the listeners are being affected by the language and the discourses the hosts are presenting, which also affects society's norms of how ethnicity is beeing constructed.

Esta pesquisa pretende analisar a trajetória dos protagonistas de três romances A Cidade e os cachorros de Mario Vargas Llosa, Manhã submersa de Vergílio Ferreira e O Ateneu de Raul Pompéia que apresentam como núcleo temático comum a opressão sofrida no espaço específico de um internato. O objetivo é traçar uma comparação entre as experiências desses personagens desde o período anterior à entrada no internato ao seu posterior retorno à sociedade, a fim de poder avaliar os efeitos do confinamento no comportamento de cada um deles. Como embasamento teórico, o trabalho recorre ao conceito de total institution, definido pelo sociólogo Erving Goffman, para melhor examinar em que medida esses ambientes se configuram como uma instituição de confinamento totalizante, que faz com que seus internos passem por dolorosas mortificações, degradações e, consequentemente, transformações na concepção que têm sobre si mesmos e os outros. Também se recorre à noção de formação de corpos dóceis, desenvolvida por Foucault, para investigar como as particularidades dos coercitivos métodos adotados pelos dirigentes dessas instituições podem ser tomadas como variações de um mesmo sistema de controle disciplinar, o qual visa moldar o comportamento do interno, induzindo-o a um tal estado de alienação que aplaque a sua capacidade de diferenciação e de contestação. Prevê-se, ainda, explorar o processo de amadurecimento desses protagonistas, que, à custa do embate com o meio repressor e os demais personagens, seguem rumo a uma consciência crítica da realidade, verificando a possibilidade de aproximação das mencionadas narrativas com o signo literário do Bildungsroman (ou romance de formação). / This research intends to analyze the protagonists\' path in three novels, which present a common point: the oppression arose in a specific setting, a boarding school. The above-mentioned novels are Misty Morning by Vergilio Ferreira, O Ateneu by Raul Pompeia and The time of the hero by Mario Vargas Llosa. The aim is to draw a comparison among these characters experiences from the period before the admission to the boarding school until their return to the society, in order to be able to evaluate the confinements effects on the behavior of each one of them. As a theoretical basis, this research resorts to the concept of total institution, defined by the sociologist Erving Goffman, to better examine to what extent these environments are totalizing institutions, that make that their boarders live painful mortifications, degradations and, as a consequence, changes in their conception about themselves and the others. It also resorts to the idea of docile bodies conformation, developed by Foucault, to investigate how the particularities of coercive methods adopted by those institutions leaders may be taken as variations of the same system of disciplinary control, which aims to determine the boarders behavior, inducing him to such a level of alienation that appeases his autonomy and ability to question this system in which he is inserted. There is also the intention to explore these protagonists physical and intellectual growing up process, which proceeds, after their struggles with the repressive environment and the others characters, towards a critical awareness of reality, and to consider the possibility of setting the mentioned narratives under the title of Bildungsroman.

No. of bitstreams: 1 dissertacao_chris.pdf: 2110899 bytes, checksum: 589457df1d7b33218ca52d383800ff09 (MD5) Previous issue date: 2006-02-24 / The objective of this work was to evaluate the influence of the soil humidity in the field capacity in the tensions of 0,006 MPa (FC1), 0,010 MPa (FC2) and 0,033 MPa (FC3) and of different levels of water deficits (WD 0%, WD 33% and WD 67%) in the initial growth of the coffee plant conilon and in the leaf water potential measured in the anti-morning, in a Red-Yellow Oxisol (OR) and Red-Yellow Ultisol (URY). The experiment was let vegetation home, being cultivated the plants in vases of 12 liters during 255 days. The adopted experimental design was randomized entirely, mounted in outline of subdivided portions, with three repetitions for each soil. The growth evaluations were achieved each 60 days and the analyzed data by the surface technique of answering. The tenor of soil humidity in the field capacity varies with the adopted tension in its determination. The growth of the coffee plant conilon in WD 0% was higher to the obtained in the water deficits of 33% and 67% of OR and URY. The largest growth of the culture was observed in FC2 of OR and in FC1 of URY. The smallest growth was obtained in the water deficits of the certain field capacity in the tension of 0,033 MPa (FC3) of OR and URY, what unfeasible its adoption in the estimate of the irrigation sheet, being used the camera of pressure of Richards. The x leaf water potential anti-morning (Ψam) showed to be a good indicator of the degree of hydration of the plants. The largest hydration to foliate was observed in WD 0%, being in CC2 for OR (Ψam = -0,17 MPa), being the water kept by the soil to a potential matric (Ψm) of -0,010 MPa and in CC1 for URY (Ψam = -0,33 MPa), which Ψm was the -0,006 MPa. To smallest hydration happened in WD 67% and in the FC3, also for OR (Ψam = -0,68 MPa) as for URY (Ψam = -1,3 MPa), being the water kept of Ψm of -0,20 MPa, for both soils. In WD 33% and WD 67% in the levels of the capacity of field of OR and URY, they were verified a reduction in the values leaf area, height and diameter of the stem of the plants. The accumulation of total dry matter and leaf water potential anti-morning observed in OR were superior to the of URY, in all of the levels of the field capacity and water deficits, resulting in the larger initial growth of the coffee plant conilon in this soil. / O objetivo deste trabalho foi avaliar a influência da umidade do solo na capacidade de campo determinada nas tensões de 0,006 MPa (CC1), 0,010 MPa (CC2) e 0,033 MPa (CC3) e de diferentes níveis de déficits hídricos (DH 0%, DH 33% e DH 67%), no crescimento inicial do cafeeiro conilon e no potencial hídrico foliar medido na antemanhã, em um Latossolo Vermelho-Amarelo (LV) e Argissolo Vermelho-Amarelo (PVA). O experimento foi conduzido em casa de vegetação, cultivando-se as plantas em vasos de 12 litros durante 255 dias. O delineamento experimental adotado foi inteiramente casualizado, distribuído em esquema de parcelas subdivididas, com três repetições para cada solo. As avaliações de crescimento foram realizadas a cada 60 dias e os dados analisados pela técnica de superfície de resposta. O teor de umidade do solo na capacidade de campo varia com a tensão adotada em sua determinação. O crescimento do cafeeiro conilon em DH 0% foi superior aos obtidos nos déficits hídricos de 33% e 67% do LV e do PVA. O maior crescimento da cultura foi observado na CC2 do LV e na CC1 do PVA. O menor crescimento foi obtido nos déficits hídricos da capacidade de campo determinada na tensão de 0,003 MPa (CC3) do LV e do PVA, o que inviabiliza a sua viii adoção na estimativa da lâmina de irrigação, utilizando-se a câmara de pressão de Richards. O potencial hídrico foliar antemanhã (Ψam) mostrou-se bom indicador do grau de hidratação das plantas. A maior hidratação foliar foi observada em DH 0%, sendo para o LV na CC2 (Ψam= -0,17 MPa), estando a água retida pelo solo a um potencial matricial (Ψm) de -0,010 MPa, e para o PVA na CC1 (Ψam = -0,33 MPa), cujo Ψm foi de -0,006 MPa. A menor hidratação ocorreu em DH 67% na CC3 tanto para o LV (Ψam = -0,68 MPa) como para o PVA (Ψam = -1,30 MPa), estando a água retida a um Ψm de -0,20 MPa, para ambos os solos. Em DH 33% e DH 67% nos níveis de capacidade de campo do LV e do PVA, foram verificadas reduções nos valores da área foliar, altura e diâmetro do caule das plantas. O acúmulo de matéria seca total e potencial hídrico foliar antemanhã observados no LV foram superiores aos do PVA, em todos os níveis de capacidade de campo e déficits hídricos, resultando em maior crescimento inicial do cafeeiro conilon, neste solo.
