The Nask Bayān, once part of the so called Greater (Sasanian) Avesta, but now lost, became a central issue of discussion in the Avestan Studies over the last 15 years. These discussions tried to clarify its relation to the collection of the Yašts (and to the Xorde Avesta) and to reconstruct types of a liturgical celebration of this Bayān Nask or of parts of it. The following article gives an overview on the recent research. It gives also some new suggestions concerning the structure of the collection of the Yašts.

Neste artigo procuraremos analisar os motivos para a invisibilidade feminina no rockportuguêscomo aspeto central da construção da feminilidade da contemporaneidade portuguesa. Noutro lugar demonstramos a existência de uma consistente dominação masculina no rockportuguês. Parece que as mulheres apenas são recordadas pela lente dos estereótipos dominantes, ou como meras namoradas, acompanhantes e atores sociais submissos em espaço público. Para combater esse esquecimento propomos, primeiro, um estado da arte que cruze género e estudos juvenis, depois uma curta apresentação do estado da participação feminina no rock português, para depois nos centrarmos na questão central do artigo: a história de vida de Xana, vocalista dos RádioMacau. Uma trajetória paradigmática não só de uma músicaportuguesa, mas de toda a construção da feminilidade no mundo das artes e da cultura na história recente de Portugal. Palavras-chave: Portugal.Rock.Dominação Masculina. Género. Xana. Rádio Macau. A PLACE WITH NO PLACE... IN PORTUGUESE ROCK Abstract: In this article we analyze the reasons for female invisibility in Portuguese rock as a central aspect in the construction of the femininity of the Portuguesecontemporaneity. Elsewhere we showed the existence of a consistent male domination in Portuguese rockscene.It seems that the women are barely remembered through the dominant stereotypeslenses, such as mere lovers, companions and submissive social actressesin public space. To combat this invisibility, we propose, first, a state of the art about gender and youth studies, then a brief presentation of the state of female participation in Portuguese rock, and then the central issue of the article: the life historyof Xana, vocalist of Radio Macau.A paradigmatic trajectory not only of Portuguese music, but of the entire construction of femininity in the world of arts and culture in recent Portuguese history. Keywords: Portugal. Rock. Male Domination. Gender. Xana. Radio Macau. UN LUGAR SIN LUGAR ... EN EL ROCK PORTUGUÉS Resumen: En este artículo analizaremos las razones de la invisibilidad femenina en el punk portugués. En otras partes4demostramos la existencia de una profunda misoginia en las letras punk portuguesas.Parece que las mujeres solo son recordadasa través de la lente de los estereotipos dominantes, o como meras novias, chaperonas y actores sociales sumisos en el espacio público. Para combatir este olvido, proponemos, primero, un estado del arte que cruza los estudios de género y juventud, luego una breve presentación del estado de la participación femenina en el rockportugués, y luego nos centramos en el tema central del artículo: la historia de vida de Xana, la vocalista de Rádio Macau.Una trayectoria paradigmática no solo de la música portuguesa, sino de toda la construcción de la feminidad en el mundo de las artes y la cultura en la historia portuguesa reciente.Palabras clave: Portugal.

Formal Properties

Copular verbs and copular sentences have been for many years a central issue in the theoretical discussions about the nature of (light) verbs and other grammatical categories, the ingredients of predication structures, the properties of nominal categories, agreement, and the interaction between syntax and semantics at the level of clause structure. The current research on copulas has gone beyond the investigation of what kind of objects they are, and has implications for the nature of agreement and other formal processes in syntax and morphology, as well as proposals about the types of structure building operations available in natural languages, the types of features that lexical selection is sensitive to, and the possibility that languages have access to semantically-empty elements required for the satisfaction of purely formal properties. The twelve works included in this volume illustrate the state of the art of these discussions through the analysis of detailed patterns of data from a variety of languages.

The tug of war regarding the perception of Islam whether as a series of religious teachings or also at the same time a part of the state system that regulates the political power of the state has actually exposed the surface as a central issue since the end of the nineteenth century and entered the early twentieth century. This perception of Islam is very significant for the development of religious and political discourses which until now are still being discussed. From the discussion of this topic also was born a series of intellectual figures who had filled out the history sheet and carved gold ink through their ideas or concepts about religion and the state that reached the processor of our brain today. Through them we can transfer thoughts so that trans ideas occur. The discussion that is oriented towards Muslim intellectual thinking is very useful for us in order to reformulate our perceptions of religion and politics in order to be more applicable in Islamic and state-of-the-art insight.

Various authors have emphasized the spatial information resident in an electron micrograph taken with adequately coherent radiation. In view of the completion of at least one such instrument, this opportunity is taken to summarize the state of the art of processing such micrographs. We use the usual symbols for the aberration coefficients, and supplement these with £ and 6 for the transverse coherence length and the fractional energy spread respectively. He also assume a weak, biologically interesting sample, with principal interest lying in the molecular skeleton remaining after obvious hydrogen loss and other radiation damage has occurred.

Instrument Control

Over the past few years it has become apparent in our multi-user facility that the computer system and software supplied in 1985 with our CAMECA CAMEBAX-MICRO electron microprobe analyzer has the greatest potential for improvement and updating of any component of the instrument. While the standard CAMECA software running on a DEC PDP-11/23+ computer under the RSX-11M operating system can perform almost any task required of the instrument, the commands are not always intuitive and can be difficult to remember for the casual user (of which our laboratory has many). Given the widespread and growing use of other microcomputers (such as PC’s and Macintoshes) by users of the microprobe, the PDP has become the “oddball” and has also fallen behind the state-of-the-art in terms of processing speed and disk storage capabilities. Upgrade paths within products available from DEC are considered to be too expensive for the benefits received. After using a Macintosh for other tasks in the laboratory, such as instrument use and billing records, word processing, and graphics display, its unique and “friendly” user interface suggested an easier-to-use system for computer control of the electron microprobe automation. Specifically a Macintosh IIx was chosen for its capacity for third-party add-on cards used in instrument control.

Training And Supervision

Abstract The purpose of this article is to provide clinical supervisors with information pertaining to state-of-the-art clinic observation technology. We use a novel video-capture technology, the Landro Play Analyzer, to supervise clinical sessions as well as to train students to improve their clinical skills. We can observe four clinical sessions simultaneously from a central observation center. In addition, speech samples can be analyzed in real-time; saved on a CD, DVD, or flash/jump drive; viewed in slow motion; paused; and analyzed with Microsoft Excel. Procedures for applying the technology for clinical training and supervision will be discussed.

This paper is an introduction to behavioral genetics for researchers and practioners in language development and disorders. The specific aims are to illustrate some essential concepts and to show how behavioral genetic research can be applied to the language sciences. Past genetic research on language-related traits has tended to focus on simple etiology (i.e., the heritability or familiality of language skills). The current state of the art, however, suggests that great promise lies in addressing more complex questions through behavioral genetic paradigms. In terms of future goals it is suggested that: (a) more behavioral genetic work of all types should be done—including replications and expansions of preliminary studies already in print; (b) work should focus on fine-grained, theory-based phenotypes with research designs that can address complex questions in language development; and (c) work in this area should utilize a variety of samples and methods (e.g., twin and family samples, heritability and segregation analyses, linkage and association tests, etc.).
