  • Medios, Dictadura Y Democracia
    Medios, Dictadura y Democracia Secretaría de Derechos Humanos Medios, dictadura y democracia Introducción Analizar el discurso de los medios de comunicación en la dictadura, es una tarea ardua que no se agota en el simple raconto de que se decía en ese momento, cual fue su rol en el esquema de poder de la época o cual fue la actitud para con las víctimas de la represión. El verdadero análisis, a 34 años del golpe, es analizar que discursos son los que continúan, cuáles son los actores sociales que todavía establecen esos discursos y como era el esquema de poder mediático en la época anterior al proceso militar y cual fue el esquema posterior a los militares en el poder. El análisis del discurso no busca juzgar hechos, sino reconocer marcas que nos lleven a una aproximación a la realidad. El estudio de las tapas de los diarios es muy útil a la hora de bucear las posiciones de los medios. Se entiende que la tapa del diario la lee mucha mas gente que el consumidor real del diario, pues una tapa está en la mano del canillita o en el propio kiosco, y las personas que pasan por allí la consumen con una mirada. Mientras mas grande sea la letra del título, mas fácil se lee en un golpe de vista. Si las tapas de los diarios (y sobre todo en esa época, donde el desarrollo de los medios electrónicos no tenía ni por asomo el de hoy) eran coincidentes en el mensaje, la construcción del sentido común era relativamente simple.

  • The Ugly Truth About the "ADL: They Are a Bunch of Racist Thugs Who Push Drugs
    Since the First Printing: ADL in Middle of A Spy Scandal Too Big to Bury On January 15, eight days after the publica- tion of the first edition of this book, The San Francisco Chronicle shocked the public with the revelation that the office of the ADL in San Francisco was at the center of a scandal involving a San Francisco police officer and a Bay Area art dealer/self-described private eye who were suspected of selling illegally obtained information to agents of the South African government. The two men, Sgt. Tom Gerard of the San Francisco Police Department, and Roy Bullock, a longtime paid undercover operative for the local office of the Anti- Defamation League of B'nai B'rith (ADL), had been undo: Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) scrutiny since vii viii SINCE THE FIRST PRINTING 1990, when federal agents discovered that secret Bureau records on American black Muslims had been obtained by South African spies. The trail pointed to Bullock, who, in addition to his fulltime paid work for the ADL, had been "moonlighting" as an undercover snitch for the Bureau. On at least one occasion, Bullock received a 1500 cash payment from the FBI for infiltrating meetings of two Bay Area groups. Bullock had access to confidential Bureau files, and became a suspect when FBI files stowed up in the hands of the South African government at the same time he was regularly meeting with two South African spies and passing confidential data to them. Bullock received cash payments that eventually totaled over $16,000.

Lennon first became acquainted (and obsessed) with Harry back in '68 when they met in Surrey, England. Nilsson .had just finished recording his first album which included a collection of Beatle songs melted together into a musical collage. Several of Nilsson's LPs have featured performances of ex-Beatl- es and seeniinalv thousands of other artists and arouos have recorded Nilsson tunes (Yardbirds, Monkees, Bad-finge- r, The Herb Sweat and .

  • Parauapebas Meteorite from Pará, Brazil, a “Hammer” Breccia Chondrite
    SILEIR RA A D B E E G D E A O D L E O I G C I A O ARTICLE BJGEO S https://doi.org/10.1590/2317-4889202020190085 Brazilian Journal of Geology D ESDE 1946 Parauapebas meteorite from Pará, Brazil, a “hammer” breccia chondrite Daniel Atencio1* , Dorília Cunha1 , André Luiz Ribeiro Moutinho2 , Maria Elizabeth Zucolotto3 , Amanda Araujo Tosi3 , Caio Vidaurre Nassif Villaça3 Abstract The Parauapebas meteorite, third official meteorite discovered in the Brazilian Amazon region, is a “hammer meteorite” which fell on De- cember 9th, 2013, in the city of Parauapebas, Pará State, Brazil. Mineralogy is dominated by forsterite, enstatite, iron, troilite, and tetrataenite. Albite, chromite, diopside, augite, pigeonite, taenite, and merrillite are minor components. Two main clasts are separated by black shock-in- duced melt veins. One clast exhibits an abundance of chondrules with well-defined margins set on a recrystallized matrix composed mostly of forsterite and enstatite, consistent with petrologic type 4 chondrites. The other clast displays chondrules with outlines blurring into the groundmass as evidence of increasing recrystallization, consistent with petrologic type 5 chondrites. The clasts of petrologic type 4 have a fine-grained texture compared to those of type 5. It is a genomict breccia (indicated by shock melt veins) with the clasts and matrix of the same compositional group, but different petrologic types, H4 and H5. The melted outer crust of the Parauapebas meteorite is comprised of forsterite with interstitial dendritic iron oxide, and is rich in irregular vesicles, which are evidence of the rapid formation of the crust. The type specimen is deposited in the Museum of Geosciences of the University of São Paulo, Brazil.
