  • On the Surnames of Latin American Presidents
    BASQUE LEGACY IN THE NEW WORLD: ON THE SURNAMES OF LATIN AMERICAN PRESIDENTS Patxi Salaberri Iker Salaberri UPNA / NUP UPV / EHU Abstract In this article we explain the etymology of the surnames of Basque origin that some presidents of Latin American countries have or have had in the past. These family names were created in the language called Euskara, in the Basque Country (Europe), and then, when some of the people who bore them emigrated to America, they brought their sur- names with them. Most of the family names studied here are either oiconymic or topo- nymic, but it must be kept in mind that the oiconymic ones are, very often, based on house-nicknames, that is, they are anthroponymic in the first place. As far as possible, we have related the surname, when its origin is oiconymic or toponymic, to its source, i.e. to the house or place where it was created. Key words: Basque, etymology, family name, Latin America, oiconym, placename, nickname. Laburpena Artikulu honetan Erdialdeko eta Hego Amerikako herrialdeetako presidente batzuek dituzten eta izan dituzten euskal jatorriko deituren etimologia azaltzen dugu.

  • PATIENT INFORMATION Facility Name This Field Is Not Collected
    SECTION III - PATIENT INFORMATION Facility Name (not a standard field in NAACCR Version 11.1) This field is not collected from you in each case record. Our data system assigns a reporting facility name to each record when uploaded. When sending cases to us on diskette or CD, include the facility name on each disk/CD label. This also helps us organize data storage. Reporting Facility Code NAACCR Version 11.1 field "Reporting Facility", Item 540, columns 382-391 This field should contain the ACoS/COC Facility Identification Number (FIN) for your facility, but the special code assigned to your facility by the MCR (usually four digits) is also acceptable if your data system can produce it (see next page for MCR codes). Facilities reporting on diskette or CD should include their MCR Code on each disk or CD label. (Records received from other central registries have this field zero-filled.) Example: Hospital A's registry may send its COC FIN ending with "148765" or its MCR Code "2102". The diskette label should include "2102".

LADB Article Id: 077994 ISSN: 1060-4189 Colombia-Venezuela: Diplomatic Relations Severed After Puzzling Gambit by President Álvaro Uribe by Andrés Gaudín Category/Department: Region Published: Friday, August 6, 2010 On July 22, two weeks before President-elect José Manuel Santos was to be sworn in, Venezuela announced it was breaking diplomatic relations with its neighbor (economic ties had been frozen since 2009). The decision came after outgoing Colombian President Álvaro Uribe's administration denounced at a special session of the Organization of American States (OAS) the alleged presence of Colombian guerrilla groups in Venezuelan territory with the backing of the Venezuelan government. Venezuelan President Hugo Chávez responded, saying that, "out of dignity, and with much sadness," his administration "had no other choice" but to make a predictable decision that only confirmed what had seemed inevitable for more than a week. Brandishing documents that failed to convince most of those present, Colombia's Ambassador to the OAS Luis Alfonso Hoyos asserted that 1,500 guerrillas had set up camps in Venezuela, and he proposed creating a commission to inspect "the 39 sites" where they were.

  • The Fragile, Back-And-Forth Relationship Between Venezuela and Colombia
    Area: Latin America ARI 40/2008 (Translated from Spanish) Date: 9/5/2008 The Fragile, Back-and-forth Relationship between Venezuela and Colombia María Teresa Romero* Theme: Under the governments of Álvaro Uribe and Hugo Chavez, political and diplomatic relations between Venezuela and Colombia have been increasingly fragile and back-and-forth, jeopardising ties and the precarious stability in the Andean region. Summary: Political and diplomatic relations between Venezuela and Colombia under the governments of Hugo Chavez and Álvaro Uribe (2000-08) have oscillated between periods of pragmatic understanding and acute tension. The latest diplomatic clash, in early March because of an indirect factor like Colombia’s military incursion into Ecuadorean territory, not only placed the countries on the border of severing relations but also on the verge of a military conflict with potential for spreading throughout the Andean region and having serious consequences for the hemisphere. In the end the crisis was defused. And now the Presidents are preparing for a summit aimed at reaffirming their friendship and commitment to a complex, important and shared agenda. However, as in other occasions, this peace is looking superficial and fragile. So over the short or long term, a new conflict is expected between the countries that once again jeopardises relations between Colombia and Venezuela and regional stability. Analysis: Relations between Venezuela and Colombia underwent a substantial change in the 1990s. Ever since the countries gained independence in the 19th century and up until the late 1980s, border problems triggered serious diplomatic conflicts and overshadowed important bilateral trade. Starting in 1989 and 1990, with the signing of the Ureña Declaration and the San Pedro Alejandrino Agreement by Presidents Carlos Andrés Pérez of Venezuela and Virgilio Barco of Colombia, a special relationship began to be built on the premise of what is known as ‘degulfisation’ (‘desgolfización’).

  • Winter Distribution of Toxic, Potentially Toxic Phytoplankton, and Shellfish Toxins in Fjords and Channels of the Aysén Region, Chile

The Aysén region (43°-47ºS) has been prone to intensive summer blooms of toxic microalgae and complex toxin profiles in the shellfish. However, their winter distribution, toxin profile, and resting cysts in sediments are poorly known. Frequently detected toxins are: Paralytic Shellfish Toxins (PST); lipophilic toxins, including Diarrheic Shellfish Toxins (DST), Amnesic Shellfish Toxin or Domoic Acid (DA). During a cruise, carried out in winter 2012, samples were collected at 24 stations for phytoplankton analysis and analysis of toxins in mollusks, and at 5 stations, additional samples were taken for toxin analysis in plankton and resting cysts in sediments. The results confirm the presence of microalgae associated with toxins in winter, and a higher sensitivity of the relative abundance (RA) than the cellular density, as a parameter of distribution of the microalgae.

  • El Perú De Fujimori, La Colombia De Uribe
    Autocracias paralelas y actuación de los medios El Perú de Fujimori, La Colombia de Uribe Alberto Rojas Andrade Autocracia civil peruana En diciembre de 2007 se inició el juicio contra el expresidente peruano Alberto Fujimori Fujimori -1990-2000-, acusado de graves violaciones a los DDHH en sus días de amo y señor del Perú, cuando fue ejecutor de draconianas políticas neoliberales, arropado en determinados momentos con la periódica aparición de informes sobre grandes índices de aceptación entre la población. Aquellos tiempos al Perú parecen ya lejanos, resulta casi increíble, como una pesadilla, que un gobernante apoyado por minorías haya tenido mediante variadas y sofisticadas tropelías, por tanto tiempo en sus manos el destino de millones de personas, que le vitoreaban aún a pesar de la naturaleza de casi todos sus actos gubernamentales, esencialmente destructiva de sus condiciones de vida y en pro de someter al Perú todavía más al dominio del capital extranjero de acuerdo a las necesidades de este. El especial autoritarismo en aquellos tiempos de esta nación andina tiene particulares rasgos en la vida peruana y una continuidad en otro país suramericano. Veamos los aspectos sobresalientes. El ascenso En el caso peruano (y latinoamericano), la década de los noventa desde sus inicios respira el aire enrarecido del neoliberalismo de los años posteriores a la caída del socialismo real, y el subsecuente replanteamiento de la Doctrina de la Seguridad Nacional estadounidense, propia de la guerra fría. El ambiente en ese momento es de quiebra institucional en el Perú, la desazón induce a la población hacia un desesperado ‘sálvese quien pueda’.

    Política externa para la integración fronteriza a partir del caso de la triple frontera Brasil, Colombia y Perú en los gobiernos de Lula, Uribe y García (2006-2011) Edgar Andrés Londoño Niño POLÍTICA EXTERNA PARA LA INTEGRACIÓN FRONTERIZA Edgar Andrés Londoño Niño* A PARTIR DEL CASO DE LA TRIPLE FRONTERA BRASIL, COLOMBIA Y PERÚ EN LOS GOBIERNOS DE LULA, URIBE Y GARCÍA (2006-2011) RESUMEN En éste artículo, se hace referencia a algunos de los elementos en materia fronteriza de la política exterior de Lula (2006-2011), Uribe (2006-2010) y García (2006-2011), a partir de factores domésticos, lineamientos de la política exterior y relaciones bilaterales con los vecinos alrededor del caso de la Triple Frontera Brasil, Colombia y Perú. El artículo resalta que Brasil en ese periodo dio una mayor atención a la Triple Frontera que sus vecinos, en concordancia con las orientaciones de la política exterior para la región y para Amazonía. Perú, consolidó su interés económico en su parte amazónica sin dar mayor atención a la región fronteriza estudiada. Colombia, se centró en la lucha contra la guerrilla y la defensa de su política de seguridad. Se demuestra cómo la política exterior resulta fundamental para analizar los límites y las posibilidades de procesos de integración fronteriza. Palabras clave: Política Exterior, Triple Frontera, Lula, Uribe, García. FOREIGN POLICY FOR BORDER INTEGRATION IN THE CASE OF THE TRIPLE BORDER [44] BETWEEN BRAZIL, COLOMBIA AND PERU UNDER THE GOVERNMENTS OF LULA, URIBE AND GARCIA (2006-2011) SUMMARY This article refers to some of the elements of border foreign policy under Lula (2006-2011), Uribe (2006- 2010) and Garcia (2006-2011) based on domestic factors, foreign policy guidelines and bilateral relations with neighbors around the case of the Triple Border between Brazil, Colombia and Peru.

  • Climate Change Projections of Temperature and Precipitation in Chile Based on Statistical Downscaling
    Climate Dynamics (2020) 54:4309–4330 https://doi.org/10.1007/s00382-020-05231-4 Climate change projections of temperature and precipitation in Chile based on statistical downscaling Daniela Araya‑Osses1,2 · Ana Casanueva3,4 · Celián Román‑Figueroa2,5 · Juan Manuel Uribe1 · Manuel Paneque1 Received: 7 August 2019 / Accepted: 5 April 2020 / Published online: 9 April 2020 © The Author(s) 2020 Abstract General circulation models (GCMs) allow the analysis of potential changes in the climate system under diferent emis- sions scenarios. However, their spatial resolution is too coarse to produce useful climate information for impact/adaptation assessments. This is especially relevant for regions with complex orography and coastlines, such as in Chile. Downscaling techniques attempt to reduce the gap between global and regional/local scales; for instance, statistical downscaling methods establish empirical relationships between large-scale predictors and local predictands. Here, statistical downscaling was employed to generate climate change projections of daily maximum/minimum temperatures and precipitation in more than 400 locations in Chile using the analog method, which identifes the most similar or analog day based on similarities of large- scale patterns from a pool of historical records. A cross-validation framework was applied using diferent sets of potential predictors from the NCEP/NCAR reanalysis following the perfect prognosis approach. The best-performing set was used to downscale six diferent CMIP5 GCMs (forced by three representative concentration pathways, RCPs). As a result, minimum and maximum temperatures are projected to increase in the entire Chilean territory throughout all seasons. Specifcally, the minimum (maximum) temperature is projected to increase by more than 2 °C (6 °C) under the RCP8.5 scenario in the austral winter by the end of the twenty-frst century.
