Llamada originalmente Etulá por la población autóctona de la isla, los bubis; Formosa y posteriormente Fernando Poo por los europeos; o Macías Nguema Biyogo por el presidente del mismo nombre; la actual isla de Bioko, ubicada en el Golfo de Guinea y perteneciente a la república de Guinea Ecuatorial, es uno de los territorios del África Ecuatorial con mayor riqueza natural y etnográfica. Sin embargo, es uno de los destinos turísticos menos visitados de todo el continente. Pocos son los turistas que se deciden por esta isla para disfrutar de unos días de vacaciones y desconexión, muy probablemente por la imagen política y sanitaria, principalmente, que tiene a nivel exterior. No obstante, también influye la casi completa pasividad por parte del gobierno respecto del sector turístico hasta hace pocos años. Por su parte, España, tanto por razones históricas como lingüísticas, es uno de los países donde puede existir un mayor número de turistas potenciales, por lo que dar a conocer este lugar a los españoles supone un aporte destacable a la carrera que está llevando a cabo el gobierno ecuatoguineano en los últimos años para impulsar el turismo. Una de las mejores formas de atraer dicho turismo, ya sea proveniente de España o de cualquier otro país, es una descripción de los diferentes recursos turísticos existentes, en este caso, en Bioko, como se realiza, tras una parte preliminar, en las siguientes páginas.

The agenda is presented: minute’s approval, budget, RT11 and P&C review. And any other subject to select from a list in case there is time for additional discussion. The meeting begins. Marcelo Visconti makes a methodological proposal: To have an action list by the end of the meeting. There’s no quorum. Minute’s approval is postponed until CS EB members arrive. 3. Budget 2016 Budget and evolution of certification figures is presented. Forecast of sales is 3.5 million tons which means less percentage of increase than the previous year but also means a greater growth in Mass Balance. Marcelo mentions that 8 companies (each buying >50,000 credits) represented the 87% of the credit purchases in 2015: Agrifirm, Groan, CEFETRA, Arla Foods, Unilever, Forfarmers, DeHeus and Denofa. In addition 6 companies purchased 241K tonnes of physical certified soy via MB/SG supply chains. When talking about availability by country, Juliana Lopes says that the majority of the availability for Brazil (672.109) is mass balance.

The movement of these ions can be described by the Q cycle. The drug omeprazole (“oh-mehp-raz-ole”) inhibits the production of these ions in (*) parietal (“pah-RY-it-al”) cells. Antimycin blocks the transport of these ions through the cytochrome bc1 complex at the start of the electron transport chain, and these ions pass through ATP synthase to make ATP.

  • Estudiantinas in La Paz, Bolivia, 1880S to 1940S
    From Elite to Popular: Estudiantinas in La Paz, Bolivia, 1880s to 1940s FERNANDO RIOS University of Maryland Abstract In recent years, the estudiantina (a type of plucked-string orchestra of Spanish origin) has become a topic of increased interest among music historians, including Latin Americanists. The Bolivian case, however, has not been the focus of detailed historical research, even though music scholars long have acknowledged that in the early-to-mid twentieth century the estudiantina represented one of Bolivia’s most popular ensemble types and served as an important vehicle for the performance of typical criollo-mestizo musical expressions. This article traces the trajectory of La Paz’s estudiantina tradition, from its emergence in the 1880s as an upper-class criollo form of music making that centered on European repertoire, to its peak of popularity in the late 1930s and mid-1940s, when working-class mestizo musicians predominated in the milieu and most ensembles performed local genres (e.g., huayño, cueca) and indigenista (Indigenist) works. The principal goal of this essay is to document this major shift. In the pages that follow, I discuss various groups, but devote special attention to the Orquesta Típica La Paz. Founded in 1945, this estudiantina represents the earliest instance of a Bolivian state-sponsored music group whose establishment formed part of a broader state attempt to court urban blue-collar workers. Keywords: estudiantina, La Paz, Orquesta Típica, indigenista, huayño, cueca, bailecito, criollo, mestizo he estudiantina (a type of plucked-string orchestra) recently has become a topic of increased interest among music historians. While most of these studies examine the tradition in its T original Iberian context, a growing number investigate its history in Latin American sites (e.g., Luna Muñoz 1993; Andreu Ricart 1995; González Ríos and González Ríos 1998; Jurado Noboa 2006: 241–49; Torres 2007; Ponce Valdivia 2008; Rendón Marín 2009; Cornejo Díaz 2012: 381–88; Mullo Sandoval 2014).
