Bachelorarbeit aus dem Jahr 2012 im Fachbereich Geowissenschaften / Geographie - Paläontologie, Note: 2,6, Universität zu Köln, Sprache: Deutsch, Abstract: Nordwestdeutschland lag im Tertiär in einem Wechselbereich von Land und Meer. Dies macht diese Gegend zum interessantesten Ablagerungsraum des Tertiärs. In dieser Bachelorarbeit werden die Foraminiferenvergesellschaftungen des Unteren Oligozän untersucht. Die Proben dazu stammen aus der Tongrube Mühlenberg Nord bei Dorsten des 5. und 6. Bauabschnitts der Firma Nottenkämper GmbH & Co KG. Durch die paläoökologischen Untersuchungen sollen die Kenntnisse über die Meeresverteilung und die ökologische Situation während des Rupels weiter präzisiert werden. Foraminiferen sind einzellige Organismen mit heterotrophem Stoffwechsel. Die meisten Formen erreichen eine Größe zwischen 0,1 und 1mm. Einige Großforaminiferen können aber auch größer als 10cm werden. Sie leben als Epi- oder Endobenthos in Meeren oder Lagunen. Einige Foraminiferen besitzen Algensymbionten, sogenannte Zooxanthellen. Einige leben als Zooplankton in der Wassersäule. Viele Foraminiferen bilden Gehäuse. Die Gehäuseformen reichen von primitiven, ungekammerten Röhren bis zu hochkomplexen Formen mit vielen Kammern. Abgesehen vom Prolokulus, der Anfangskammer, nehmen die Kammern von der ältesten zur jüngsten an Größe zu. Die Kammern werden durch Septen getrennt. Das Endoplasma kann durch Öffnungen in den Septen, sogenannte Foramini innerhalb des Gehäuses kommunizieren. Die letzte Kammer verfügt über eine oder mehrere Aperturen, über die Endo- und Ectoplasma kommunizieren können. Form und Lage der Apertur sind besonders wichtig für die taxonomische Einordnung. Bei Aperturen, die nicht an der letzten Kammer liegen, spricht man von Reliktaperturen.

Cet ouvrage pose le problème de la représentation dans le contexte de la création sonore numérique. L''auteur propose que l''objet sonore et l''auditeur ne sont pas des entités indépendantes, mais codépendantes. Cette analyse à la première personne rejoint certaines idées postulées par la phénoménologie et la philosophie bouddhiste. Les symboles dans cette approche ne sont pas des représentations mais des outils opératoires servant à la composition. Ce livre propose une approche participative de la création sonore.

Part fairy tale, part horror story about characters who convince themselves they are alright. But at times the truth arrives and they can''t get it off them -- and there is no answer, only a question. Tarot cards are not really meant to tell your fortune or future: the tarot aids in coming in contact with one''s Higher Self because the most powerful information sources come from within. Sometimes the best way to move forward is to go backward because the path to a bright future requires a shadowy regression. Protagonist Rodrigo Garc�a Olza returns to the racetrack to train horses. Rodrigo is a vampire especially attracted to what he cannot define, who let go of a life planned for the life he shares in San Francisco with photographer/filmmaker Liam Mannering. Liam''s film contemplates the many forms of erotic desire and shifting genders that both Shakespeare''s "Cymbeline" and mythology''s "Ganymede" release through various disguises of erotic attachment -- encouraging gender disruptions through less permitted forms of desire. And the necromancer, capable of every wickedness, brings back spirits of the dead to fight for him. Undead Spanish poet/playwright Federico Garcia Lorca searches for a way to be human, again.

Authors DG FARNSWORTH and RODRIGO GARCÍA OLZA RODRIGO GARCÍA OLZA Novel Series Part 3 Einar often mentions his vivid imagination and the emotions that he lets control his thoughts -- admitting he is "rather easily carried away." He makes a surprising assumption that the ghosts'' intentions are to "get hold of him." The 21-year-old appears to unconsciously project his most horrific thoughts and faults upon the ghosts and, then, condemns the apparitions for this. Einar is usually alone in a Gothic intimidating Twin Peaks mansion; forbidden to explore its long narrow corridors and rooms never visited, filled with mysteries, collections of eccentric objects, and secrets; where eyes of portraits and murals appear to follow as he explores, and where weird haunting sounds echo through the estate. A need to have space of one''s own is a strong theme. Einar grew-up in the witch town Tella, Spain, among caterers and servants with not much privacy, little space, no need or capability to maintain secrets, and no awareness of his own personal failings or how they could be related. The Secret Garden on Alcatraz Island offers room to develop unhindered, unguided, and without help. Similar to flesh diminishing from the skull of a cadaver, while gruesomeness amasses, the quaint lighthouse that once restored a sense of physical well-being effectively falls away into a hellish tomb of stone and bone. Nowhere to hide on the island with inward fears transfigured by an almost intangible menace of too much imagination. Two sets of eyes of the ghost gaze upon him. One set of eyes had the world explained but didn''t have the clever ways of persuading or tricking someone to do what one wants; which is needed to use this knowledge effectively; someone who learned empathy''s secret but not the capability to direct it to the correct object, and was delivered wings but wound-up not operating inside the family facade. Einar certainly knows that he''s alien and intrinsically different to himself: the remains of two - something excluded by or opposite to another thing. During their first meeting, the psychiatrist gave Einar four multicolored notebooks (he calls binders) to keep record of thoughts, feelings, and dreams. One of the first things Einar expressed was that he was technically a twin but it doesn''t actually count because Joaquín died in the first trimester. Dr. Ravencraft jumped all over this statement saying, indeed, it does count, that he''s still a twin: a womb twin survivor. The doctor, very interested in the strange phenomena, wants to know more; so Einar tells his story the best he understands. The psychiatrist''s intense interest centers around the fact that little academic writing exists about ghost twins. While living in Tella, Spain, Einar went to another psychological counselor about this, who belittled him - expressing no empathy, knowledge or understanding of vanishing twins. His previous therapist emphasized that his twin was only a mass of cells and it was quite apparent not destined to survive, that his sensitivity and concern should be more directed toward his mother''s miscarriage, instead - to not make such a big deal about it. Einar never discussed the matter, again, after feeling shamed. He sincerely feels the need for some respect, to be listened to, including maybe some sort of validation about his own grief and trauma. The modus operandi of "Embers of Einar: White Binder" is the elimination of inauthentic elements of the self in order to reach the core personality within. It''s a serial form of vanishing act, like Einar''s vanishing twin, thus the death of the archetypal (never-seen, only spoken-of) transgressive person to overtake the personality. For Einar this identification with the unthinkable is an act of defiance, a way of burying that shame about what is perfectly natural. Tension between losing himself and finding himself in others often overwhelms.

Urban Politics: The Political Culture of Gangs is a juxtaposition of street gang organizations and government theory and organization. It is a civil philosophy reference book that examines street gang behavior and culture in an unconventional way. It assesses political phenomenon such as: social contracts, the media, political parties, city council structures, budgeting, and other forms of political conduct, within a street gang organization context. Urban Politics offers a unique perspective into gang culture that challenges the reader to view street gang organizations from the inside with a creative slant. Urban Politics is a fascinating, yet horrifying insight into the underground culture of street gang organizations.

If we think about the absolute supremacy of human life, a life that, to be understood as such, must be a life lived with dignity, we have to think about life from a material point of view and, therefore, in a priority status to the so-called "social" rights, since social rights (economic, social and cultural) address issues as basic to life and human dignity as food, health, shelter, work, education and water. With this understanding, it becomes very clear that the materiality of human dignity rests on the so-called "existential minimum," the hard kernel of social rights, in such a way that social rights are genuine (true) fundamental human rights. Recognition of social rights cannot be, therefore, a mere listing of good intentions on the part of the state. Social rights are fundamental rights, which are for all men, can be exercised by everyone and are essential to life and human dignity. Nevertheless, that leaves much to be done so that these rights can be put on a par with civil and political rights insofar as legal status is concerned. What we are seeking in this study, then, is to shed light on the understanding that social rights are fundamental human rights, by contributing to a proposal to be offered for creating and demanding, politically and legally, certain social rights envisioned from another place, in a critical and humanistic way, as well as to help in some way so as to be able to overcome the social apathy of our times through an emancipatory and transformative process of rebellion.

R. Garcia y Robertson applies his considerable talents in historical research and writerly depiction to an epic of American history, the legendary Battle of the Little Big Horn and Custer''s last stand--and turns the legends upside down. First, he tells the tale entirely from the Indian side, and secondly, he tells it through the eyes of a blonde white woman from Pennsylvania married to an Indian brave: American Woman. With extraordinary wit and imagination, this book is a literary grenade of the quality of Thomas Berger''s" Little Big Man. "American Woman is a fine, uproarious, and moving novel.

Nesta edição bilíngüe Whitman e seu livro, que se fundiram num mesmo projeto de vida e de linguagem, alteraram os rumos da poesia moderna como uma onda cujos impactos podem ser sentidos até hoje. Whitman afetou a sensibilidade e a obra de várias gerações de escritores e artistas, de Isadora Duncan a Borges, de Maiakovski a Ginsberg. Como relva, para usarmos sua imagem-matriz, o livro cresceu organicamente, sofrendo um processo de expansão, remanejamento e revisão ao longo de nove edições.

This thesis is devoted to the legal analysis of the facts and arguments advanced in favor and against the 2003 invasion of Iraq carried out mainly by the United States of America and the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland. The facts of the Iraqi case serve as a backdrop for the analysis and arguments developed in this thesis. Both on the Iraqi situation and on a broader context, this thesis analyzes the Preventive War Doctrine formulated by the Bush Administration in the National Security Strategy of the United States of America (2002) and the merits of this doctrine of prevention under international law and its implications for international peace and security. In studying the Iraqi case, this thesis analyzes the law on the use of force under the UN Charter and other relevant sources of international law, and proposes avenues for change in the law.
