This article examines the representation mode painting like a change parallel to the profound transformation of the technical or theoretical knowledge, and also parallel to changes in the Balinese society values due to the physical evolution and the evolution of the system of values. In fact, within one century of painting it has been like moving from the classical, traditional, standard, homogeneous, local, and collectively turned into a painting that has been varied, heterogeneous, individual, and internationally with a modern twist. These waves of change occurred in the span of time through several stages, and most striking result from cash capitalistic economy and culture, especially tourism. In pre-colonial time the painting is a narrative religious functions until the time of breath commercialism modernist touches to always make innovations or changes. From the sacred space of temples and palaces to moving objects souvenirs, hotel interiors, fash- ion and even interior and exterior car. Developments of painting through innovation should not be inter- preted as a discontinuity (rapture) or discontinuity of the local context, but on the contrary, to appreciate again the classical values (pastiche), not by road of preserving it rigidly, but the process of reinterpretation and re-contextualization.

Sequential Trial

Left/right “fixed” responses to arrow targets are influenced by whether a masked arrow prime is congruent or incongruent with the required target response. Left/right “free-choice” responses on trials with ambiguous targets that are mixed among fixed trials are also influenced by masked arrow primes. We show that the magnitude of masked priming of both fixed and free-choice responses is greater when the proportion of fixed trials with congruent primes is .8 rather than .2. Unconscious manipulation of context can thus influence both fixed and free choices. Sequential trial analyses revealed that these effects of the overall prime context on fixed and free-choice priming can be modulated by the local context (i.e., the nature of the previous trial). Our results support accounts of masked priming that posit a memory-recruitment, activation, or decision process that is sensitive to aspects of both the local and global context.

This chapter traces the development of the radical secular press in Egypt from its first brief emergence in the 1870s until the outbreak of World War I. First active in the 1860s, the anarchist movement gradually expanded its membership and influence over subsequent decades to articulate a general social emancipation and syndicalism for all workers in the country. In the decade and a half before 1914, its press collectively propagated a critique of state power and capitalism, called for social justice and the organisation of labour, and promoted the values of science and public education in both a local context and as part of an international movement. In seeking to promote a programme at odds with both nationalism and colonial rule, it incurred the hostility of the authorities in addition to facing the practical problems of managing and financing an oppositional newspaper.

Training in the workplace is characterized by direct interaction with normal work in the usual working situation for specialists, which has a number of advantages: it does not require large financial expenses, separation from the main work and departure from the limits of the settlement, allows to quickly implement the obtained theoretical knowledge in the practical activities of nursing specialists.

This is a study of a successful seventeenth-century carpenter in St Albans, John Carter, using probate and other documents, assisted by a large-scale computer database of St Albans residents of the period. Sections of the article cover his family, his work and his house and its contents, which have been reconstructed from his probate inventory and from knowledge of the structure of other local houses of the period. Carter's social standing is discussed, both in its local context and in relation to previous probate inventory analyses. This micro-study sheds unusual light upon aspects of the life of a 'middling sort' of person, living in a thriving market town in close proximity to London, at the beginning of the consumer age.

Esta pesquisa teve como finalidade relatar experiências em laboratório, especificamente o Laboratório de Geografia Física - Pesquisa (LabGeoFis-Pesquisa), localizado no Departamento de Geografia, no Centro de Ciências Humanas, Letras e Artes, da Universidade Federal do Rio Grande do Norte. Procuramos relatar, de forma concisa, as principais técnicas aplicadas ao trabalho laboratorial, enfatizado a temática da Geografia Física. Para tecer essas considerações, nos fundamentamos em autores como Venturi (2005) e Rudio (1990), os quais tratam sobre teorias e procedimentos relacionados às práticas de laboratório e a pesquisa descritiva e experimental, respectivamente. Para realizar esta pesquisa, levamos em consideração os trabalhos e as experiências desenvolvidas pelos alunos de bacharelado e licenciatura do primeiro período do curso de Geografia. Os resultados aqui obtidos, nos mostraram a importância dos conhecimentos teóricos aliados com a prática de laboratório.Palavras chaves: Laboratório; Experiência; Técnicas. ABSTRACT This research had the purpose of reporting laboratory experiments, specifically the Laboratory of Physical Geography - Research (LabGeoFis-Search), located in the Department of Geography, at the Humanities, Letters and Arts Center of the Federal University of Rio Grande do Norte. We try to report, in a concise way, the main techniques applied to laboratory work, emphasizing the theme of Physical Geography. In order to make these considerations, we base ourselves on authors such as Venturi (2005) and Rudio (1990), who deal with theories and procedures related to laboratory practices and descriptive and experimental research, respectively. To carry out this research, we take into account the work and experiences developed by the baccalaureate and undergraduate students of the first period of the Geography course. The results obtained here showed us the importance of theoretical knowledge allied with laboratory practice.Keywords: Laboratory; Experience; Technique. RESUMENEl propósito de esta investigación fue reportar experimentos de laboratorio, específicamente el Laboratorio de Investigación de Geografía Física (LabGeoFis-Pesquisa), ubicado en el Departamento de Geografía, en el Centro de Humanidades, Letras y Artes, Universidad Federal de Río Grande del Norte.
