A Collector Deceives—About the Ways of Deceiving Women by Men and Men by Women as far as Spending Money on Collecting Items Is Concerned
2022
The presented research shows that neither women nor men are honest with their partners when informing them about the amount of money spent on collecting items. Their behaviour may show signs of addiction to collecting. Men in comparison to women spend more and are less likely to lower the amounts of money spent on collected items. Those who earn more spend more on their collections. Women and men also use different techniques of hiding their expenses. Women do not inform about their expenses using denying techniques (such as saying that it was bought/borrowed a long time ago, etc.), whereas men inform about expenses but use preventive techniques (such as exchange). What is more, men tend to…
Preservation in Disaster Situations: a case study of the Valvilla Wool Mill Museum, Finland
2013
This article discusses the role of documentation and rescue planning in minimizing collection damages in disaster situations. The topic is surveyed through a case study of a fire that occurred in 2003 at the Valvilla Wool Mill museum in Hyvinkää, in Southern Finland. This incident caused significant damage to the authenticity and integrity of the museum’s archival collection. Both the fire and the extinguishing of the fire caused severe damage to items in the archival collection. Deterioration continued during aftercare, causing serious secondary collection damage because the methods of the first aid and aftercare were spontaneously planned and applied. By using the Valvilla Wool Mill museu…
La intervención de Cenicienta en la construcción de las pirámides. Un tipo iconográfico en la primera serie litográfica de las Maravillas del mundo
2020
En el siglo XVI se realiza la primera serie de litografías de las Maravillas del mundo. En ellas se representan las arquitecturas más emblemáticas de la Antigüedad. Pero en la relativa a las pirámides de Egipto se esconde un tipo iconográfico que pasa desapercibido si no se conocen las fuentes historiográficas griegas. Alude a Rhodopis, la primera Cenicienta, y su papel clave en la construcción de las pirámides. Maarten Van Heemskerck y Philips Galle nos guían hasta los historiadores clásicos Heródoto y Estrabón a través de la iconografía, para hacernos conocedores de la historia de la joven Rhodopis, una joven griega cuyo zapato toma un águila y deja caer en el regazo del faraón egipcio. D…

Effets de quartier, effet de département : discrimination liée au lieu de résidence et accès à l'emploi
2013
L’objet de cette étude est de mesurer la discrimination à l’embauche à l’encontre des jeunes en Ile-de-France en raison du lieu de résidence en considérant plusieurs échelles spatiales de façon à distinguer l’effet de la réputation du département (Paris et la Seine-Saint-Denis), celui de la localité et celui du quartier. L’évaluation est réalisée sur données expérimentales auto-construites de testing selon un protocole permettant d’examiner les effets propres à chacune de ces trois échelles sur l’accès à l’emploi ainsi que leurs effets cumulés. On s’intéresse aux discriminations pour deux professions en tension du secteur de la restauration pour laquelle les discriminations devraient a prio…
Hyaluronic Acid Present in the Tumor Microenvironment Can Negate the Pro-apototic Effect of a Recombinant Fragment of Human Surfactant Protein D on B…
2020
Copyright © 2020 Murugaiah, Agostinis, Varghese, Belmonte, Vieni, Alaql, Alrokayan, Khan, Kaur, Roberts, Madan, Bulla and Kishore. Human surfactant protein D (SP-D) belongs to the family of collectins that is composed of a characteristic amino-terminal collagenous region and a carboxy-terminal C-type lectin domain. Being present at the mucosal surfaces, SP-D acts as is a potent innate immune molecule and offers protection against non-self and altered self-such as pathogens, allergens, and tumour. Here, we examined the effect of a recombinant fragment of human SP-D (rfhSP-D) on a range of breast cancer lines. Breast cancer has four molecular subtypes characterised by varied expression of oes…
Virtual Hierapolis: tra tecnicismo e realismo
2011
[ES] Una de las principales actividades de la MAIER tiene como objetivo desarrollar una línea de investigación dirigida a la restauración virtual y la reproducción 3D de los antiguos monumentos de la ciudad romana de Hierápolis de Frigia, Turquía. El proyecto, llamado "Virtual Hierápolis, se ha desarrollado gradualmente en las últimas tres temporadas de excavación (años 2007-2009) y ha madurado a partir de las primeras experiencias de la RV aplicada a este sitio en años anteriores. Esta investigación, coordinada por el Director de la misión italiana, prof. F. D'Andria, y llevada a cabo en el Laboratorio de Tecnologías de la Información (ITLab) dell'IBAM-CNR de Lecce (Italia), implica unidad…
