Abstract:
This study reports the occurrence of Canis latrans on eastern Panama, including the first report of it presence across the Panama Canal, which expands the known distribution for this species to its southernmost point. The presence of Canis latrans on this region suggests that it is expanding its range Southwards by using deforested areas and areas of cattle ranching alongside the Panamerican Highway. This highway crosses the isthmus up to the Darien Province.

Abstract:
A 4-month-old female Irish Terrier presented with a well demarcated ulcerative and crusting lesion in the right ear canal. Histological analysis revealed epidermal hyperplasia with severe acantholysis affecting all suprabasal layers of the epidermis, which prompted a presumptive diagnosis of canine Darier disease. The lesion was successfully treated by repeated laser ablation of the affected epidermis. Over the course of three years, the dog additionally developed three dermal nodules of up to 4 cm in diameter that were excised and healed without complications. Histology of the excised tissue revealed multiple infundibular cysts extending from the upper dermis to the subcutis. The cysts were lined by squamous epithelium, which presented with abundant acantholysis of suprabasal keratinocytes. Infundibular cysts represent a novel finding not previously reported in Darier patients. Whole genome sequencing of the affected dog was performed, and the functional candidate genes for Darier disease (ATP2A2) and Hailey-Hailey disease (ATP2C1) were investigated. The analysis revealed a heterozygous SINE insertion into the ATP2A2 gene, at the end of intron 14, close to the boundary of exon 15. Analysis of the ATP2A2 mRNA from skin of the affected dog demonstrated a splicing defect and marked allelic imbalance, suggesting nonsense-mediated decay of the resulting aberrant transcripts. As Darier disease in humans is caused by haploinsufficiency of ATP2A2, our genetic findings are in agreement with the clinical and histopathological data and support the diagnosis of canine Darier disease.

Las imágenes obtenidas por el radiómetro Alta Resolución Visible “HRV” del satélite SPOT cubre el área entre el delta del Río Magdalena (Barranquilla) y el delta del Canal del Dique (al Sur de Cartagena) sobre la costa Caribe colombiana. Se estudia el aporte de sólidos en suspensión del Río Magdalena, el más grande de los aportes al Caribe y de enorme influencia en al repartición de los sedimentos en la zona circundante. Las imágenes permiten efectuar una síntesis sobre la repartición de los sólidos en suspensión y la hidrodinámica en el área observada; la pluma turbia del Magdalena está manejada por dos agentes dinámicos diferentes y de sentido contrario: Los Alisios del Noreste que la inclinan profundamente en la parte más externa y la contracorriente de Darién que penetra entre la pluma y la costa casi hasta el mismo delta dividiendo la pluma en dos partes, confundiéndose la parte costera de la pluma con la deriva litoral.

Abstract:
Il disagio e le conflittualità sociali presenti nelle nostre città in molteplici casi hanno come teatro le aree verdi e gli spazi non costruiti presenti sul territorio urbano, percepiti spesso da un lato come luoghi non controllati e quindi conquistabili, dall’altro lato, come luoghi trascurati e quindi non sicuri, infrequentabili. Uno sguardo complessivo a queste aree che ne ribalti la prospettiva valorizzandone le potenzialità, può portare ad un progetto coordinato in cui si cerchi di incrementare e sostenere alcune funzioni ritenute capaci di superare le criticità presenti. In quest’ottica un progetto complessivo di paesaggio che non consideri il non costruito come una spazio residuale, ma come un elemento capace di una relazione attiva con il contesto urbano, può contribuire alla coesione sociale, alla sensibilizzazione ai temi ambientali, al miglioramento dell’offerta di luoghi di ritrovo, all’aumento della sicurezza urbana. Negli ultimi anni, la sensibilizzazione nei confronti dei problemi connessi con la salvaguardia dell’ambiente ha portato a un considerevole incremento delle aree protette e delle zone destinate a verde all’interno delle aree urbanizzate. Spesso però si considerano queste zone, in particolare i parchi e le riserve, come luoghi non totalmente fruibili dalla popolazione, anche al di là delle specifiche e corrette esigenze di conservazione. Questa impostazione rischia di mettere in crisi anche attività economiche orientate alla gestione sostenibile del territorio come nel caso dell’agricoltura. In realtà, uno degli errori che si commette più di frequente è quello di considerare le aree verdi e quelle antropizzate come entità fini a sé stesse mentre una positiva coesistenza può essere realizzata solo se si consente una loro positiva interazione dinamica, coniugando esigenze di conservazione e salvaguardia delle attività sociali ed economiche e fornendo stimoli alla riconversione delle attività non compatibili con l’ambiente. Un mezzo per perseguire tale scopo è, sicuramente, quello di proporre ai comuni forme alternative di difesa e gestione dell’ambiente, valorizzando la naturale vocazione del territorio. Vista la notevole incidenza percentuale sulla superficie complessiva, risulta di particolare importanza la tutela e la rivalutazione delle realtà rurali che, ormai da lungo tempo, subiscono l’inarrestabile fenomeno dell’espansione edilizia e sono costrette ad una difficile convivenza con la periferia urbana.

Abstract:
This chapter looks into the legacy of Santiago Ramón y Cajal. Historians rank Cajal alongside more recognizable names such as Darwin and Pasteur among the greatest biologists of the nineteenth century and Copernicus, Galileo, and Isaac Newton among the greatest scientists of all time. In his final testament to the neuron theory, Neuron Theory or Reticular Theory? Cajal reported to have seen more than a million neurons. Cajal’s drawings of these neurons are much like portraits. “Only true artists are attracted to science,” he once said. Although the majority of his work concerns the nervous system, Cajal was a physician who contributed to many other fields. To pathology, he contributed studies on tuberculosis, leprosy, syphilis, rabies, Alzheimer’s disease, and cancer. He also published science fiction and wrote one of the earlier manuals on color photography. Cajal was a true polymath and a national hero in his home country of Spain.

Abstract:
John Roebling was one of the nineteenth century’s most brilliant engineers, ingenious inventors, successful manufacturers, and fascinating personalities. Raised in a German backwater amid the war-torn chaos of the Napoleonic Wars, he immigrated to the United States in 1831, where he became wealthy and acclaimed, eventually receiving a carte-blanche contract to build one of the nineteenth century’s most stupendous and daring works of engineering: a gigantic suspension bridge to span the East River between New York and Brooklyn. In between, he thought, wrote, and worked tirelessly. He dug canals and surveyed railroads; he planned communities and founded new industries. Horace Greeley called him “a model immigrant”; generations later, F. Scott Fitzgerald worked on a script for the movie version of his life. Like his finest creations, Roebling was held together by a delicate balance of countervailing forces. On the surface, his life was exemplary and his accomplishments legion. As an immigrant and employer, he was respected throughout the world. As an engineer, his works profoundly altered the physical landscape of America. He was a voracious reader, a fervent abolitionist, and an engaged social commentator. His understanding of the natural world, however, bordered on the occult, and his opinions about medicine are best described as medieval. For a man of science and great self-certainty, he was also remarkably quick to seize on a whole host of fads and foolish trends. Yet Roebling spun these strands together. Throughout his life, he believed in the moral application of science and technology, that bridges—along with other great works of connection, the Atlantic cable, the Transcontinental Railroad—could help bring people together, erase divisions, and heal wounds. Like Walt Whitman, Roebling was deeply committed to the creation of a more perfect union, forged from the raw materials of the continent. John Roebling was a complex, deeply divided, yet undoubtedly influential figure, and his biography illuminates not only his works but also the world of nineteenth-century America. Roebling’s engineering feats are well known, but the man himself is not; for alongside the drama of large-scale construction lies an equally rich drama of intellectual and social development and crisis, one that mirrored and reflected the great forces, trials, and failures of the American nineteenth century.

Abstract:
This chapter considers the construction of individual identities and their representations in various visual media. The prevailing view has been that the 27th Dynasty was characterized by artistic poverty brought on by Achaemenid rule. A reexamination of the dating criteria used to create the corpus of Late Period sculpture demonstrates that this ‘poverty’ is a modern scholarly construct. Moreover, these criteria are more frequently used to exclude objects from the 27th Dynasty than to attribute objects to it. The examples of Egyptian art that can unequivocally be assigned to the Achaemenid period are illustrative of a wide range of approaches to and experiences with the empire. These include the statue of Darius found at Susa, the stelae erected along the Red Sea canal, funerary monuments, personal votives, and the naophorous statues of Horwedja, Ptahhotep and Udjahorresnet. Based on these example, it seems that ethnicity was not a clear predictor either of one’s relationship to the empire or of how one conceived of one’s own identity.

Ryan Gilmour of the Westfälische Wilhelms-Universität Münster employed (Chem. Eur. J. 2014, 20, 794) an organocatalyst to direct the enantioselective aziridination of 1 to 2. Vanessa Kar-Yan Lo and Chi-Ming Che of Hong Kong University devised (Angew. Chem. Int. Ed. 2014, 53, 2982) a Ru catalyst for the enantioselective aziridi­nation (not illustrated) of terminal alkenes. Shu-Li You of the Shanghai Institute of Organic Chemistry and Aiwen Lei of Wuhan University described (Angew. Chem. Int. Ed. 2014, 53, 2443) the Pd-mediated carbonylation of 3 to the β-lactam 4. Professor You reported (J. Am. Chem. Soc. 2014, 136, 6590) the enantioselective allylation of a pyrrole 5 with 6 to give the imine 7. Maria-Paz Cabal and Carlos Valdés of the University of Oviedo showed (Eur. J. Org. Chem. 2014, 1672) that the cycliza­tion of 8 to 9 proceeded with predictable high diastereocontrol. In one pot, Darren J. Dixon of the University of Oxford combined (ACS Catal. 2014, 4, 634) 10 and 11 to give 12 in high ee. The addition of 13 to 14 to give 15 described (Nature Chem. 2014, 6, 47) by Takashi Ooi of Nagoya University set two adjacent quaternary centers with control of both relative and absolute configuration. Scott E. Denmark of the University of Illinois devised (J. Am. Chem. Soc. 2014, 136, 8915) a catalyst for the enantioselective electrophilic cyclization of 16 to 17 with control of sidechain stereochemistry. Using commercial acetone cyanohydrin 19, Christian V. Stevens of Ghent University cyclized (Eur. J. Org. Chem. 2014, 1296) 18 to the nitrile 20. George W. J. Fleet, also of the University of Oxford, used (Eur. J. Org. Chem. 2014, 2053) similar conditions to convert the sugar-derived acetonide 21 into 22. Michael B. Tropak of the University of Toronto and Dilip P. Dhavale of the University of Pune showed (J. Org. Chem. 2014, 79, 4398) that the nitrone derived from 21 added to an alkene 23 with high facial selectivity, leading to the piperidine 24. In the course of a synthesis of syringolin A, Satoshi Ichikawa of Hokkaido University effected (Angew. Chem. Int. Ed. 2014, 53, 4836) intramolecular Ugi three-component coupling of the isonitrile 25, the acid 26, and the amine 27, leading to the macrolactam 28.

Christophe Darcel and Jean- Baptiste Sortais of the CNRS-Université Rennes 1 reduced (Chem. Commun. 2013, 49, 10010) an acid 1 to the aldehyde 2 with a Mn catalyst under photostimulation. The same authors also used (Angew. Chem. Int. Ed. 2013, 52, 8045) an Fe catalyst to reduce an ester (not illustrated) to the corresponding aldehyde. Yasushi Tsuji of Kyoto University employed (Adv. Synth. Catal. 2013, 355, 3420) a Pd catalyst to reduce acid to the aldehydes. Chao-Jun Li of McGill University found (Angew. Chem. Int. Ed. 2013, 52, 11871) that a Ag catalyst in water would reduce an aldehyde 3 to the alcohol 4. Ketones were not reduced under these conditions. David Milstein of the Weizmann Institute of Science devised (Angew. Chem. Int. Ed. 2013, 52, 14131) an Fe catalyst for the E-selective reduction of an alkyne 5 to the alkene 6. Debabrata Maiti of IIT Bombay effected (Chem. Commun. 2013, 49, 8362) reductive cleavage of a nitrile 7 to the alkane 8. Aryl nitriles were also reduced. Professor Li used (Eur. J. Org. Chem. 2013, 6496) an Ir catalyst and hydrazine under H-transfer conditions to reduce an alcohol 9 to the hydrocarbon 10. Kenneth M. Nicholas of the University of Oklahoma reduced (Chem. Commun. 2013, 49, 8199) the diol 11 to the alkene 12 with a V catalyst. Qiang Liu of Lanzhou University and Li- Zhu Wu of the Technical Institute of Physics and Chemistry showed (Eur. J. Org. Chem. 2013, 7528) that irradiation in the presence of a photoredox catalyst and a Hantzsch ester removed the sulfonyl group of 13. Selective oxidation is a powerful tool for organic synthesis. Eike B. Bauer of the University of Missouri St. Louis oxidized (Chem. Commun. 2013, 49, 5889) the diol 15 to the ketone 16 with an Fe catalyst and 30% hydrogen peroxide. Yan- qin Yuan of Lishui University and Jiannan Xiang of Hunan University selectively (Org. Lett. 2013, 15, 4654) thiolated the ether 17 to 18, that has the aldehyde oxidation state. Chengjian Zhu of Nanjing University converted (Adv. Synth. Catal. 2013, 355, 3558) the aldehyde 19 to the thioester 20 by oxidation in the presence of diphenyl disulfide.

Full text
Abstract:
There is a place, about a mile long by a thousand feet wide, that lies in the heart of the Southern Rocky Mountains in Colorado. Here at the eastern margin of Rocky Mountain National Park, along a creek known as North St. Vrain, everything comes together to create a bead strung along the thread of the creek. The bead is a wider portion of the valley, a place where the rushing waters diffuse into a maze of channels and seep into the sediment flooring the valley. In summer the willows and river birch growing across the valley bottom glow a brighter hue of green among the darker conifers. In winter, subtle shades of orange and gold suffuse the bare willow stems protruding above the drifted snow. The bead holds a complex spatial mosaic composed of active stream channels; abandoned channels; newly built beaver dams bristling with gnawed-end pieces of wood; long-abandoned dams now covered with willows and grasses but still forming linear berms; ponds gradually filling with sediment in which sedges and rushes grow thickly; and narrow canals and holes hidden by tall grass: all of these reflect the activities of generations of beavers. This is a beaver meadow. The bead of the beaver meadow is partly hidden, tucked into a fold in this landscape of conifers and mountains. The approach is from Route 7, which runs north–south across the undulating topography of creeks flowing east toward the plains. Coming from the north, as I commonly do, you turn west into the North St. Vrain watershed on an unpaved road perched on a dry terrace above the creek. The road appears to be on the valley bottom, but beyond the terrace the valley floor drops another 20 feet or so to the level at which the creek flows. I instinctively pause at this drop-off. The conifer forest on the terrace is open and the walking is easy. The beaver meadow looks impenetrable and nearly is. I have to stoop, wade, crawl, wind, and bend my way through it, insinuating my body among the densely growing willow stems and thigh-high grasses.

Abstract:
La agenda 2030 y los ODS son una meta internacional común, es bueno que las naciones las acaten y se esmeren por darles cabal cumplimiento. México las firmó pero aparentemente no hay trabajo multisectorial, profundo y organizado para este fin. La educación es uno de los ODS pero también es una red inerte hasta el momento, que puede promover y activar cualquier función por los ODS. En la educación superior se descansa la formación profesional de la sociedad, por ende ahí se forma el futuro de un país, pero curiosamente no se le involucra en la lucha por un porvenir digno. La educación normal es la responsable de la formación superior de construir a los maestros y guías del conocimiento de niños y por ellos de la esperanza de todo pueblo; al normalismo actualmente se le tiene reservado, cuando puede ser la llave para acceder a una red de difusión e implementación de pequeñas actividades por los ODS, lo que sería un cumplimiento de metas de manera integral, sumando a sociedad y gobierno. En ocasiones solo hace falta un ligero estimulo para accionar pequeños motores que generaran grandes cambios, espero la educación normal sea este motor.
