Shi, Changying 1977. "Purification and characterization of trypsin from the pyloric ceca of hoki (Macruronus novaezealandiae)". Thesis, McGill University, 2006. http://digitool.Library.McGill.CA:80/R/?func=dbin-jump-full&object_id=99205.
Testo completoAbstract (sommario):
Fish viscera are produced in large quantities in the fishing industry and represent a waste disposal and environmental pollution problem. However, this material is a rich source of trypsins that may have some unique properties, such as high molecular activity at low processing temperature, low thermostability, and high pH optimum/pH stability, for both basic research and industrial applications. The main objectives of this project were to extract, purify and characterize trypsin from the pyloric ceca of hoki (Macruronus novaezealandiae ), which is by far the most important commercial fish in New Zealand.Trypsin was purified from the pyloric ceca of hoki by ammonium sulfate fractionation, followed by acetone fractionation and affinity chromatography on SBTI-Sepharose 4B. The purified extract was simultaneously desalted and concentrated by ultrafiltration, and then characterized using N-alpha-benzoyl-DL-arginine-p-nitroanilide (BAPNA) as substrate. The affinity fraction migrated as a signal band in SDS-PAGE gels as well as in isoelectric focusing gels. The molecular weight of the isolated trypsin was determined by SDS-PAGE to be approximately 26,000 Da, whereas the MALDI-TOF MS method of analysis indicated a molecular weight of 23,791 Da. The isoelectric point was determined as 6.5.
The kinetic properties, temperature, pH and inhibition effects on the activity of the purified trypsin were verified. On the basis of the kinetic properties, hoki trypsin showed better amidase activity than bovine trypsin. The hoki trypsin had alkaline pH optimum (pH 9.0) and was stable at a high pH. Hoki trypsin had a higher optimum temperature (60°C) and still had relative higher activity at lower temperature. On the other hand, hoki trypsin was unstable at higher temperature. The enzyme was inhibited by well known trypsin inhibitors (SBTI, aprotinin, benzamidine and PMSF). The N-terminal residues of hoki trypsin, IVGGQECVPNSQPFMASLNY, displayed considerable homology with other fish trypsins. Based on the above characteristics, it is suggested that the hoki enzyme is authentic trypsin with potential for use in food industry and related applications.

He kopu puta tahi, he taura whiri tātou; whiringa a nuku, whiringa a rangi, te whatia e Issue of one womb, we are a rope woven of many strands; woven on earth, woven in heaven, it will not break (Rev Māori Marsden, 1992) Ngati Te Takinga is a hapū (sub-tribe) belonging to the Iwi (tribe) Ngati Pikiao. An affiliated member of the Te Arawa confederation of tribes, Ngati Pikiao occupies the Okere and Rotoiti Lakes district of Rotorua in the central North Island of Aotearoa New Zealand. This thesis seeks to acknowledge and address the concerns that Ngati Te Takinga has regarding impending cultural discontinuity. The concerns arise due to the hapū's limited human capability and capacity being the result of three things. Firstly, the ongoing demise of tribal elders (and leaders) and the subsequent loss to the hapū of cultural knowledge, skills, leadership and expertise. Secondly, the low numbers of adept, culturally proficient successors 'coming through' (to replace the elders) and finally, the detribalised and diasporic (dispersed) nature of our people. The hapū and the marae Te Takinga (a last outwardly discernible bastion of Ngati Te Takinga cultural identity and distinction) are jeopardised as a result of these phenomenon. This thesis is part of a hapū strategy that attempts to address these problems. Positing the reconnection of our dispersed Ngati Te Takinga 'away-dwellers' as a beginning solution, the central questions raised by this thesis are how [does] Ngati Te Takinga 'home-dweller' discourse impact on the 'coming home' experiences and 'reconnection' of Ngati Te Takinga away-dwellers? and what are the [are there] implications for Ngati Te Takinga cultural continuity? The maintenance of Ngati Te Takinga cultural continuity forms the aho mātua or main thread of this work. Using narrative enquiry as a broad methodological framework,stories were gathered from four different groups of Ngati Te Takinga peoples. The groups were home-dwellers (mana whenua or ahi kaa), te ahi tere (away-dwellers who have returned home to live); te ahi tere (away-dwellers who intend returning in the future) and te ahi tere (away-dwellers who have no intention of returning home to live). The stories (narratives) investigated notions of home, belongingness and Māori identity in relation to the trichotomy of the connection, disconnection and the reconnection of Ngati Te Takinga peoples; the stories were analysed and co-constructed with participants for meaning. The stories showed that while the hapū aspires to gather up the strengths of a dispersed people to reinvigorate our culture and the marae, existing and competing discourses around authenticity, authority and Ngati Te Takinga identity create a tension between the home (mana whenua/ahi kaa) and away-dwelling Ngati Te Takinga people; including those away-dwellers who have returned. As a basic requirement, this tension must be diminished in order to build the relationships necessary to improve hapū allegiance (whānaungatanga), to build hapū strength and to maintain hapū culture and identity. As a priority, decolonising strategies that facilitate an understanding of diversity, promote participation, maintain tikanga and include our away-dwellers, our 'returnees' and/or our disconnected people in our hapū-marae interactions, must be considered, developed, promoted and practiced.

Borell, Phillip John. "He iti hoki te mokoroa: Maori Contributions to the Sport of Rugby League". Thesis, University of Canterbury. Aotahi: School of Maori and Indigenous Studies, 2012. http://hdl.handle.net/10092/7052.
Testo completoAbstract (sommario):
The aim of this thesis is to explore the influences and contributions of Māori to the establishment and development of the sport of rugby league in New Zealand. The overarching question of this thesis is how have Māori influenced and contributed to the development of rugby league in New Zealand? This thesis examines the international social history of rugby league from the origins of rugby league as a sport following the split in rugby union in England through to the contemporary status of Māori within the game as an elite sport in New Zealand and overseas. By examining Māori involvement in rugby league it is my intention to place Māori at the centre of the explanation for the establishment and development, past and present, of the sport in New Zealand, and also globally.
While there have been some previous accounts of the affiliation between Māori and rugby league (Coffey and Wood, 2008; Greenwood, 2008; Falcous, 2007) this thesis compiles accounts from disparate sources in order to outline the history of Māori involvement and achievement in the development stages of rugby league.
Key areas of focus for this thesis include the early Māori tours of 1908 and 1909, the development of the New Zealand Māori Rugby League as an independent entity separate from the New Zealand Rugby League and the contemporary influences of Māori on rugby league. This thesis will show that the early Māori tours were crucial to the development of Australian, New Zealand and, to an extent, British rugby league. It will also provide insight in to the inclusive nature of rugby league through the inclusion of Māori initiatives such as the development of a Māori Rugby League. The final section of this thesis will draw on the contemporary influence that Māori have on the sport through an examination of player migration and how Māori have emerged as a ‘donor culture’ providing high numbers of elite athletes to the world’s premier rugby league competitions.
It can be argued that the mobility of Māori, in the form of touring teams and migrant players, has sustained the sport internationally while paradoxically, and simultaneously, depleting the game domestically. In this account Māori emerge, not as an appendix in a history of the game but rather as a crucial donor culture for the establishment and continued success of rugby league.

Kurtovic, Ivan. "Digestive lipases from Chinook salmon (Oncorhynchus tshawytscha) and New Zealand hoki (Macruronus novaezelandiae) - purification, characterization, application and immobilization". Thesis, McGill University, 2011. http://digitool.Library.McGill.CA:80/R/?func=dbin-jump-full&object_id=103635.
Testo completoAbstract (sommario):
Lipases from two New Zealand commercial fish species, Chinook salmon (Oncorhynchus tshawytscha) and New Zealand hoki (Macruronus novaezelandiae) were investigated. The lipases were extracted from the pyloric ceca and purified by affinity chromatography and gel filtration. Calcium ions and sodium cholate were absolutely necessary both for lipase stability in a polyacrylamide gel and for optimum activity against p-nitrophenol esters. Both fish lipases had a pI value of 5.8 ± 0.1, were most active at 35°C, were thermally labile, had a pH optimum of 8-8.5, were more acid stable compared to other fish lipases studied to date, and showed good stability in several water-immiscible solvents. The salmon enzyme was an overall better catalyst for the hydrolysis of p-nitrophenyl caprate based on its higher turnover number and lower activation energy for the hydrolysis reaction. Based on their chemical and catalytic properties, the salmon and hoki enzymes were classified as carboxyl ester lipases. Chinook salmon and hoki lipases were then evaluated as flavour modifying agents in dairy products. Cream was either incubated with the fish lipases or two commercially available lipases used in dairy flavour development. The fish enzymes were more similar to calf pregastric esterase in terms of the total amount and types of fatty acids released (mainly short chain) over the course of the reaction. The highest specificity was towards the key dairy product flavour and odour compounds, butanoic and hexanoic acids. Immobilization of the salmon lipase was then carried out on two hydrophobic supports. Salmon lipase immobilized on octyl-Sepharose had 40- and 10-fold higher activity (on a dry weight basis) against a tributyrin emulsion than the same lipase immobilized on Lewatit VP OC 1600 and a microbial lipase immobilized on Lewatit (Novozym 435), respectively. Salmon lipase-octyl-Sepharose was highly active against both ghee and fish oil emulsions, but salmon lipase-Lewatit and Novozym 435 had very low activities against the fish oil emulsion.The potential for flavour enhancement in dairy products with both fish lipases was demonstrated based on the free fatty acid composition and sensory characteristics of lipase-treated creams. In addition, the immobilized salmon lipase showed potential for low temperature modifications of emulsified lipids.Les lipases de deux espèces de poissons commerciaux en Nouvelle-Zélande, le saumon quinnat (Oncorhynchus tshawytscha) et le hoki de la Nouvelle-Zélande (Macruronus novaezelandiae) ont été étudiées. Les lipases ont été extraites des caeca pyloriques et purifiées par chromatographie d'affinité et gel filtration. Les ions de calcium et cholate de sodium étaient absolument nécessaires pour la stabilité de la lipase dans un gel de polyacrylamide et de l'activité optimale contre les esters p-nitrophénol. Les deux lipases de poissons avaient une valeur pI de 5.8 ± 0.1, ont été les plus actives à 35°C, ont été thermolabiles, a un pH optimum de 8 à 8.5, ont été plus stables en milieu acide par rapport à d'autres lipases de poissons étudiées à ce jour, et ont montré une bonne stabilité dans plusieurs solvants miscibles à l'eau. L'enzyme du saumon a été un catalyseur globalement meilleure pour l'hydrolyse de caprate p-nitrophényl en fonction de son nombre de rotation élevé et faible énergie d'activation pour la réaction d'hydrolyse. Sur la base de leurs propriétés chimiques et catalytiques, les enzymes de saumon et hoki ont été classées comme des lipases ester carboxylique. Les lipases du saumon quinnat et hoki ont été aussi évaluées comme agents de modification de la saveur dans les produits laitiers. La crème a été mise à incuber avec les lipases de poisson ou avec deux lipases disponibles dans le commerce utilisées dans le développement du goût des produits laitiers. Les enzymes de poissons avaient plus des similitude avec l'estérase prégastrique du veau en termes de montant total et les types d'acides gras libérés (principalement à chaîne courte) au cours de la réaction. La plus grande spécificité a été observée aux composés clés de la saveur et odeurs des produits laitiers: les acides butanoïque et hexanoïque. L'Immobilisation de la lipase de saumon a ensuite été effectuée sur deux supports hydrophobes. La lipase de saumon immobilisée sur octyl-Sépharose avait une activité 40- et 10-fois plus élevée (sur la base du poids sec) par rapport à une émulsion de tributyrine que la même lipase immobilisée sur Lewatit VP OC 1600 et une lipase microbienne immobilisée sur Lewatit (Novozym 435), respectivement. La lipase-octyl-Sépharose de saumon a été très active à la fois contre le ghee et les émulsions d'huile de poisson, mais la lipase-Lewatit et Novozym 435 de saumon avaient des activités très faible contre l'émulsion d'huile de poisson. Le potentiel d'amélioration de la saveur dans les produits laitiers avec les deux lipases de poisson a été démontré sur la base de la composition des acides gras libres et les caractéristiques sensorielles des crèmes traitées avec lipases. De plus, la lipase de saumon immobilisée a démontré un potentiel pour des modifications au niveau des lipides émulsionnés à basse température.

Khem, Sarim. "Development of model fermented fish sausage from New Zealand marine species". Click here to access this resource online, 2009. http://hdl.handle.net/10292/807.
Testo completoAbstract (sommario):
Three New Zealand marine species, hoki (Macruronus novaezealandiae), kahawai (Arripis trutta) and trevally (Pseudocaranx dentex) were used to develop model fermented fish sausage. The formulation comprised fish mince, carbohydrate, minced garlic and salt in a mass ratio of 1 (fish): 0.15: 0.05: 0.03, respectively. The carbohydrate source was cooked rice or glucose. (Endogenous lactic acid bacteria (LAB) failed to ferment rice). Folate was also added to the mixture as a factor. The mixtures were extruded into 50 mL plastic syringes, where the needle end of the barrel had been excised by lathe. The lubricated barrel was overfilled to 60 mL, capped with a layer of ParafilmTM and aluminium foil, sealed tightly by rubber band and incubated at 30°C. Over time the piston was progressively advanced to yield samples for microbiological, physical, and chemical analysis. Over 96 hours an increase in the LAB count was observed with a concomitant decrease in pH. After fermentation was complete, the samples contained around 8.77 log cfu LAB g-1 with the pH range from 4.38 to 5.08. The microbiological and pH behaviour of each species varied between preparations. Hardness, adhesiveness, springiness and cohesiveness of the treatments increased with fermentation, except for hoki. The treatments showed different colour characteristics with fermentation. The light reflectance (L* values) of the trevally and kahawai treatments increased, while the a* (redness) and b* (yellowness) values decreased. Hoki exhibited smaller colour changes except for yellowness, which increased markedly. Proteolysis, measured colorimetrically by soluble peptide bonds, was greatest for trevally. Lipid oxidation, measured by the thiobarbituric acid method, was least for hoki, notably the species with the lowest fat content. Biogenic amines, which are a general quality indicator of fermented products, increased during fermentation. The trevally treatment generated the highest concentration of amines, but these values were lower than those reported for fermented fish sausage in Southeast Asia. Notably there were no important difference between folate treatments and those without folate. The results point to commercial opportunities and further research with New Zealand marine species, especially trevally. To improve the product quality and to show geographical exclusivity, further research could be done by using starter culture, and a New Zealand staple carbohydrate source such as kumara and potato, and spices and herbs which are commonly used in New Zealand, such as rosemary, thyme and sage or specific to New Zealand, such as horopito. In addition, sensory studies should also be performed before the products could be tested in the market.

Freeman, A. N. D. "The importance of fisheries waste in the diet of Westland Petrels (Procellaria westlandica)". Phd thesis, Lincoln University. Bio-Protection and Ecology Division, 1997. http://theses.lincoln.ac.nz/public/adt-NZLIU20080219.145454/.
Testo completoAbstract (sommario):
Westland petrels Procellaria westlandica breed only near Punakaiki on the West Coast
of New Zealand. About 80 km offshore from their breeding colony, New Zealand's largest commercial fishery (for hoki Macruronus novaezelandiae) operates from mid June to early September, coinciding with the Westland petrel's breeding season.
It has been assumed that Westland petrels feed extensively on fisheries waste and that
this habit has been at least partly responsible for the increase in the Westland petrel
population. Some seabird biologists have expressed concern that if a species comes to
depend on scavenging at fishing vessels, such a species could experience a food crisis if
fishing operations changed in a way that reduced the quantity of waste discharged. The aim of this research was to assess how dependent Westland petrels have become on fisheries waste for food.
Diet studies showed that during the hoki fishing season, waste accounts for more than half by weight of the solid food Westland petrels bring back to the colony to feed their chicks. After the hoki season, waste contributes only about a quarter of their diet as birds switch to more natural prey and scavenge a wider variety of fish species presumably from smaller, inshore fishing vessels.
Much of the fisheries waste eaten by Westland petrels was flesh which could not be identified using traditional techniques. The electrophoretic technique iso-electric focusing increased the number of fish samples that could be identified and consequently the diet was interpreted differently than it would have been had only traditional diet analysis been used.
The survey of Westland petrel distribution off the west coast of the South Island, found
that although hoki fishing vessels influence the distribution of Westland petrels, only a small proportion of the Westland petrel population appears to utilise this food resource at any one time.
Westland petrels were tracked at sea by VHF radio telemetry and then by satellite tracking. Satellite tracking showed that there is considerable variation in the amount of
time Westland petrels spend in the vicinity of fishing vessels. On average, satellite tracked birds spent one third of their time near vessels, but they foraged over much larger areas than that occupied by the West Coast South Island hoki fishing fleet.
Although fisheries waste is an important component of the Westland petrel diet, it appears that the situation is one of opportunistic use of a readily available resource, rather than one of dependence. Several features of the Westland petrel's breeding biology and foraging ecology suggest that Westland petrels could compensate for a reduction in waste from the hoki fishery by switching to other sources of waste and
increasing their consumption of natural prey.
Nevertheless, much remains unanswered concerning the role of fisheries waste in the Westland petrel's diet. In particular, quantifying the waste available to seabirds, and the
success of Westland petrels in acquiring that waste compared to other scavenging species, is needed in order to better predict the effect of a reduction in fisheries waste on Westland petrel population size.

Testo completoAbstract (sommario):
There exists a fundamental difference in how today's Hopi youth are growing up from that of their parents and grandparents--Hopi youth are not acquiring the Hopi language. This sociolinguistic situation raises many questions about the vitality and continuity of the Hopi language.Two key findings emerged from the study of three Hopi young adults. First, the study showed that cultural experiences are key to developing a personal and cultural identity as Hopi, but a linguistic competence in Hopi, especially in ceremonial contexts, is fundamental to acquiring a complete sense of being Hopi. Secondly, the effect of modern circumstances apparent in behavior and attitude among Hopi is evidence of another shift--a move away from a collective maintenance of language as cultural practice to the maintenance of language and cultural practice as a personal choice of use.

Mary-Russell and Dr. Harold Colton, co-founders of the Museum of Northern Arizona in Flagstaff, opened the Hopi Craftsman Exhibition, a show of fine Hopi art, in July of 1930. Believing that traders' emphasis on mass production of tourist trinkets contributed to a decline in the quality of Hopi art, Mary-Russell determined to introduce the buying public to quality Hopi art, hoping this would stimulate better prices. Through the Hopi Craftsman Exhibition, Mary-Russell encouraged Hopi artists to use quality materials and sought ways to help them improve their techniques. Throughout the years, the goals and logistics of the Hopi Craftsman Exhibition have changed to keep up with the ever-increasing interest in Hopi arts. Today, the Hopi Marketplace showcases quality Hopi art to a discerning public. Hopi artists appreciate the encouragement, exposure, and recognition the Hopi Craftsman Exhibition has given them and their art over the years.

Testo completoAbstract (sommario):
Sur les hauts plateaux arides d'arizona septentrional, le "peuple pacifique", les hopi, du groupe pueblo, de langue uto-azteque, descendants des anasazi, poursuivent au sein de village en nids d'abeilles leur difficile existence. Pour survivre dans le desert, ces indiens se sont assures l'aide de puissances surnaturelles a qui ils adressent des suppliques portees par les esprits (les kachina) figures par des danseurs masques eux memes reproduits sous la forme de poupees. Or la representation de ces personnages semble, en 1987, etre un element decoratif tres a la mode, fait qui constitue un danger pour le culte. Notre etude a donc tente de retrouver, a travers les siecles, dans les differents types d'artisanat au sein des collections de musees de l'ouest et appartenant a des particuliers, l'existence de cette figurine materialisee d'un concept religieux primordial. Les transformations stylistiques dues aux contacts sporadiques puis constants avec la civilisation americaine temoignent a la fois de l'influence de cette derniere et de l'indeniable talent artistique du peuple des mesas. A l'exception du tissage, tous les artisanats et les arts ont utilise et continuent d'employer le motif decoratif kachina. .High on the dry mesas of northeastern arizona, the "peaceful nation" the hopi indians, belonging to the pueblo shoshonean group and offsprings of the anasazis, still live their harsh live in their bee-hive shaped villages. To survive in this waterless land, they secured the assistance of deities to whom they sent prayers carried by supernatural beings (the kachina) impersonated by masked dancers who are represented in a doll shape ( tihu ). In 1987, the representation of these characters in crafts and arts seems to be up to date and may endanger the cult. Our research tried, through centuries and among museums as well as private collections, to find the use of this primordial religious concept. Transformations in style caused by sporadic then constant contacts with the whites witness both the influence of the latter and the artistic talent of the mesa people. Except weaving, each craft used and is still using the kachina design. .

Sustainable Built Environments Senior CapstoneThis case study examines housing on the Hopi reservation, both traditional and contemporary and aims to create a future type of housing that will contribute to addressing the critical housing needs and alternative solutions addressing substandard housing on and for the Hopi people. Westernization has created a plague of substandard housing on the reservation that ignores pre-existing vernacular architecture and thus, the environment and the culture of the Hopi people. Rather, Westernization has created a move toward inexpensive, and quick but highly inefficient types of housing. The housing situation on Hopi presents a critical need for solution, an alternative to the substandard housing by creating a housing design that is sustainable, affordable and energy efficient. This solution can be found by (re)linking to cultural patterns of sustainability, essentially the history of a cultural people which includes traditional housing methods and materials. Traditional Hopi housing was studied and a list of common strategies was compiled from traditional houses on the reservation into a Basecase. Modern strategies were applied to the Basecase to create a Newcase. The percent savings in annual energy use and annual operation costs were compared between the two cases, however, it is important to note that the results were skewed due to a variety of factors that are discussed as limitations in the study. Nevertheless, the study offered an alternative housing solution, one that demonstrated significant savings in annual energy use and operation costs.

Switch-Reference (SR) is a phenomenon in which the coreferentiality of two (or more) subjects in a complex sentence is indicated by a morphological device. The purpose of this dissertation is to discuss recent work which deals with SR within the Government and Binding Theory, and propose an alternative analysis to it. The framework I will adopt for such an alternative analysis of SR is Categorial Grammar. A basic notion underlying Categorial Grammar is that an expression is divided into a functor and an argument, and each functor and argument are further divided into a functor and an argument until the division reaches to an undividable element. Given the assumptions that a functor and its argument must be compatible and that a functor has some subcategorization properties, I argue that "Agreement" phenomenon (subsuming agreement and disagreement) can be handled insightfully. Furthermore, I propose that such a treatment of "Agreement" can be extended to SR systems in general if we consider the "same subject" and "different subject" phenomena as cases of agreement and disagreement, respectively. I claim that a composite in which a SR morpheme appears forms a functor which takes another composite as its argument, and that the relation between the functor and its argument and the relation between some parts of the functor and its argument are characterized as "agreement" or "disagreement": The functor and the argument must be compatible as assumed above, and the nature of compatibility (whether "agreement" or "disagreement") is controlled by the subcategorization properties of the SR morpheme associated with the functor (i.e., if "same subject", the relation is agreement, and if "different subject", it is disagreement). By treating SR in this fashion, I intend to provide a unified analysis for apparently different SR systems in three diverse languages, namely, Tairora, Hopi, and Warlpiri.

This project involved instrumental neutron activation analysis of 428 ceramic vessels and clays, typological analysis of 1135 vessels, and stylistic analysis of more than 400 bowls. Most of the items analyzed were recovered from the Homol'ovi villages, a group of eight Pueblo III--Pueblo IV (circa A.D. 1250--1400) sites located near Winslow, Arizona. These studies were conducted in order to address the question of the origin(s), geographically speaking, of the ancient inhabitants of the Homol'ovi villages. The results of the compositional analysis indicate local production of Winslow Orange Ware at Homol'ovi and in the Petrified Forest. Circulation of Winslow Orange Ware to the Anderson Mesa area, the Tonto Basin, and the Verde Valley is also evident. Furthermore, among the earliest ceramic assemblages from the Homol'ovi sites were found locally-produced versions of ancestral Hopi pottery types and vessel forms. The compositional data also point to local production of Roosevelt Red Ware at Homol'ovi and in the Petrified Forest. The whole vessel study resulted in the observation that most Winslow Orange Ware vessels represent attempts to produce Jeddito Orange Ware using materials indigenous to the Middle Little Colorado River Valley. An examination of the dating and distribution of different kiva forms revealed that Homol'ovi ceremonial architecture reflects western Kayenta and Tusayan patterns, supporting the ceramic-based inference of ancestral Hopi migration. Placing these results in broader context, it is possible to discern an ancestral Hopi migration horizon which corresponds with what has been called the Salado archaeological culture or the "Salado phenomenon." By examining Hopi oral texts, it was observed that many include information that correlates with archaeological and anthropological models of Hopi origins. By hypothesizing that these accounts represent significantly restructured texts, it is possible to resolve apparent disconformities between Hopi oral tradition and anthropological inferences. This conception of Hopi migration accounts allows resolution of conflicting interpretations of Homol'ovi, i.e., the idea that it is an ancestral Hopi place because its inhabitants moved to the Hopi Mesas circa A.D. 1400, versus the notion that it is an ancestral Hopi place because its inhabitants were immigrants from the Hopi Mesas.

This qualitative critical ethnography examines how visual culture impacted the identity and art of four Hopi artists. Sources of data included a personal journal, artists’ interviews, group discussion, art work interpretations, and historical research of Hopi art, visual culture, and issues of native identity. In particular, my analysis focused on issues of power / knowledge relationships, identity construction, and the artist as co-constructor of culture through personal narratives. Implications for art education centered on the concept of storytelling through mythic archaeology situated in identities of past, present, and future.

In this thesis, historic Hopi ethnographic data are employed to model ancestral Hopi agricultural land use through the lens of archaeological landscape theory. Emphasizing the interconnectedness of landmarks--loci of discrete interactions between humans and the land--within networked cultural landscapes, archaeological landscape theory provides a unique perspective from which to examine overlapping planes of historic and prehistoric land use.Drawing on ethnographic accounts, a model is constructed that integrates the physical, social organizational, ritual/ceremonial, and traditional history dimensions of historic Hopi agricultural land use. Durable material correlates of agricultural land use are proposed on the basis of ethnographic documentation. This holistic model is applied to archaeological data from the Homol'ovi Ruins State Park (HRSP), northeastern Arizona. The integrative model produced herein allows for the interpretation of relationships between archaeological features representing different land use behaviors and the conceptualization of linkages between landmarks in the ancestral Hopi agricultural landscape.

The traditional Hopi house is a manifestation of the society's place within a larger landscape. The plaza and the Kiva represent the spiritual communal spaces whereas the house is a more pragmatic domain for daily household activities. However, within the house itself there seem to be realms of both the spiritual and the pragmatic. Prior to the late 1800s, Hopi houses were two, three or four stories high. Generally the ground floors and subterranean levels were for the storage of grain and religious artifacts. The upper stories contained habitation rooms and roof terraces used for the more pragmatic chores of the household. Towards the turn of the century, due to numerous influences, the most prevalent living space became the one story house. Analysis of the interviews and observations of existing traditional houses and modern HUD houses shows that Hopi dwellings are still divided into two domains, the pragmatic daily chores in the main habitation room and the storage and/or bedrooms. This fact shows a continued, distinct Hopi use of space. Guidelines are proposed to incorporate these patterns for future housing. (Abstract shortened by UMI.)

O gênero Pestivirus, pertencente à família Flaviviridae, é constituído por espécies virais de importância na saúde animal no mundo todo, as quais podem afetar a economia dos países de forma impactante. São reconhecidas quatro espécies pelo Comitê Internacional de Taxonomia Viral (ICTV): vírus da peste suína clássica (Classical Swine Fever Virus – CSFV), vírus da doença da fronteira (Border Disease Virus- BDV), vírus da diarreia viral bovina tipo 1 (Bovine Viral Diarrhea Virus 1- BVDV-1) e 2 (BVDV-2). Algumas das espécies deste gênero- CSFV e BVDV- são de notificação obrigatória na Organização Mundial de Saúde Animal (OIE), causando sanções econômicas importantes quando presentes. Recentemente, possíveis novas espécies vêm sendo caracterizadas, porém ainda não foram reconhecidas como espécies do gênero Pestivirus. Com o objetivo de gerar mais informações acerca da diversidade genética de pestivírus no país, o presente trabalho descreve os genomas completos e a caracterização genômica e filogenética de uma cepa de BVDV-1 subtipo i e duas de vírus ‘HoBi’-like. Os genomas completos foram obtidos através de sequenciamento de nova geração; as anotações, predição da poliproteína viral e dos sítios de clivagem foram feitos através do software Geneious, e a análise filogenética foi realizada através do software MEGA 6. O BVDV-1 subtipo i foi pela primeira vez isolado no Brasil, sendo também a primeira descrição de genoma completo deste subtipo de BVDV. Também foi descrito o genoma completo de duas cepas de vírus ‘HoBi’-like isolados no Brasil, além da caracterização de outras cepas de ‘HoBi’-like disponíveis em bancos de dados. Os dados moleculares destes isolados foram comparados com aqueles das demais espécies do gênero Pestivirus, e estas informações deverão auxiliar na futura classificação deste como espécie. Os resultados apresentados na dissertação adicionam conhecimento sobre a diversidade genética de BVDV-1 no Brasil além de informações acerca do vírus ‘HoBi’-like, reforçando esta espécie ainda não reconhecida como um novo membro do gênero Pestivirus, os ‘HoBi’-like vírus.The genus Pestivirus, within the family Flaviviridae, includes species that are important pathogens affecting animal health that can cause impacting losses in the economy worldwide. According to the International Committee on Taxonomy of Virus (ICTV), there are four recognized species in this genus: Classical swine fever virus (CSFV), Bovine Viral Diarrhea Virus1 and 2 (BVDV -1, BVDV-2), and Border disease virus (BDV). Some of the species within this genus - CSFV and BVDV- are notifiable to the World Organization for Animal Health (OIE), and can cause exportation barriers or sanctions. Other putative new species have been characterized recently, but remain officially unrecognized. In order to generate data about the genetic diversity of pestivirus in Brazil, this study describes complete genomes and the genomic and phylogenetic characterization of an isolate of BVDV-1i and two isolates of ‘HoBi’-like virus. Complete genomes were sequenced through Next Generation Sequencing; genome annotations, polyprotein prediction and identification of cleavage sites were performed with software Geneious, and phylogenetic analysis with software MEGA 6. BVDV-1 subtype i was found in Brazil for the first time, and this is the first complete genome ever characterized for this subtype. Two strains of ‘HoBi-like’ virus isolated in Brazil were also described and characterized together with other ‘HoBi’-like strains available in databases. The molecular data obtained for these isolates were compared to those of other Pestivirus species. These data can help in future classification of these ‘HoBi’-like strains as a new recognized species. The knowledge on genetic diversity and the characterization of pestiviruses can contribute with surveillance programs and with appropriate animal health measures to control these viral diseases.

Testo completoAbstract (sommario):
Westland petrels Procellaria westlandica breed only near Punakaiki on the West Coast of New Zealand. About 80 km offshore from their breeding colony, New Zealand's largest commercial fishery (for hoki Macruronus novaezelandiae) operates from mid June to early September, coinciding with the Westland petrel's breeding season. It has been assumed that Westland petrels feed extensively on fisheries waste and that this habit has been at least partly responsible for the increase in the Westland petrel population. Some seabird biologists have expressed concern that if a species comes to depend on scavenging at fishing vessels, such a species could experience a food crisis if fishing operations changed in a way that reduced the quantity of waste discharged. The aim of this research was to assess how dependent Westland petrels have become on fisheries waste for food. Diet studies showed that during the hoki fishing season, waste accounts for more than half by weight of the solid food Westland petrels bring back to the colony to feed their chicks. After the hoki season, waste contributes only about a quarter of their diet as birds switch to more natural prey and scavenge a wider variety of fish species presumably from smaller, inshore fishing vessels. Much of the fisheries waste eaten by Westland petrels was flesh which could not be identified using traditional techniques. The electrophoretic technique iso-electric focusing increased the number of fish samples that could be identified and consequently the diet was interpreted differently than it would have been had only traditional diet analysis been used. The survey of Westland petrel distribution off the west coast of the South Island, found that although hoki fishing vessels influence the distribution of Westland petrels, only a small proportion of the Westland petrel population appears to utilise this food resource at any one time. Westland petrels were tracked at sea by VHF radio telemetry and then by satellite tracking. Satellite tracking showed that there is considerable variation in the amount of time Westland petrels spend in the vicinity of fishing vessels. On average, satellite tracked birds spent one third of their time near vessels, but they foraged over much larger areas than that occupied by the West Coast South Island hoki fishing fleet. Although fisheries waste is an important component of the Westland petrel diet, it appears that the situation is one of opportunistic use of a readily available resource, rather than one of dependence. Several features of the Westland petrel's breeding biology and foraging ecology suggest that Westland petrels could compensate for a reduction in waste from the hoki fishery by switching to other sources of waste and increasing their consumption of natural prey. Nevertheless, much remains unanswered concerning the role of fisheries waste in the Westland petrel's diet. In particular, quantifying the waste available to seabirds, and the success of Westland petrels in acquiring that waste compared to other scavenging species, is needed in order to better predict the effect of a reduction in fisheries waste on Westland petrel population size.

Despite all the scholarly work on the Hopi, studies primarily focus on the role of the Federal government and Hopi resistance; discussions generally dismiss Hopi Progressives as "assimilationists" and "puppets" of the Federal government. This limited focus has lead us astray in our attempts to analyze the Hopi response to the Indian Reorganization Act (IRA) which created the Hopi Tribal Council. This study restructured the framework of analysis by tracing the political changes among Hopi Progressives during the post Oraibi Spilt era (1906-1936). Hopi history served as a model of Hopi political tradition for comparative analysis of Progressive leadership and activities. The results of the comparison demonstrated that Hopi progressivism was rooted in tradition and strove to insure greater sovereignty. Finally, the political changes among Progressives created parallels to the IRA. In giving a new definition to Hopi progressivism, this study expands the framework of the Hopi IRA process.

This thesis explores the meanings of the words homosexual, transvestite, and berdache in order to gain a better understanding of the Hopi word hova. Most of the major extant, published, anthropological literature regarding the words berdache and hova are reviewed and analyzed. Other cultural ideas such as Navajo nadleehi and Zuni lhamana are also analyzed for cross-cultural purposes. As the anthropological literature is inadequate for explaining the Hopi word hova, future research options and projects are proposed in favor of a static conclusion.

De modo a compreender os aspetos mais importantes do processo de internacionalização. Para tal, esta investigação baseia-se numa revisão bibliográfica sobre as teorias que fundamentam a internacionalização. A metodologia utilizada para a recolha de dados consistiu numa entrevista semiestruturada à administração do grupo. Dos resultados obtidos conclui-se que o método utilizado para a entrada nos mercados estrangeiros é influenciado maioritariamente, por fatores externos dos mercados do destino e por fatores internos à empresa e que são a imagem de marca. O prestígio e a notoriedade são atributos fundamentais para o estabelecimento de um contrato de franquia para o grupo em análise. O desejo de procurar novos mercados, novos recursos e ativos estratégicos são os principais motivos de internacionalização.
Internationalization consists of an increasing and gradual process through which an organization externally expands their business. This research examines the determinants that influence the decision-making about the entry mode into foreign markets in the internationalization process of Portuguese hotel group Hoti Hotéis. This dissertation aims to analyze the major reasons of internationalization. For this purpose, this research is based on a literature review on the internationalization process. The methodology used in collecting data involved the application of an interview with the group management. From the results it is concluded that the entry mode choice is mainly influenced by the company?s internal and external factors related to the destination market. The brand image, prestige and reputation are key attributes for establishing a franchising contract for the hotel group in study. The desire to seek for new markets, new resources and strategic assets are the main reasons for internationalization.

Testo completoAbstract (sommario):
This dissertation looks at the way in which the shifting configurations of nation, gender and future in Micah might affect readers' positioning as subjects---that is their positioning as agents of speech and action---in a way that might engender resistance to oppression. It is suggested that if readers of Micah identify with the ambiguous and shifting national and gendered identities, within the context of the book's visions for the future, they are urged to recognize contradictions within their own subjectivity. This has the possible effect of shifting the reader's pre-formed subject position, or at least interrogating it, a process which may allow for resistance to oppression. The theoretical problematic for this approach originates within recent discussions of textual determinacy in biblical and literary criticism: "is it the text or the reader that controls meaning?" The work of theorist Homi K. Bhabha on the negotiation of cultural difference in colonial and post-colonial contexts is used to engage the position---common to much contemporary literary and cultural criticism---that the reader comes to the text already formed as a subject within ideology, and that this will necessarily affect or control the way she reads the text. Zizek's reading of Althusser through Lacan is taken as a starting point for an understanding of "subject formation" thus conceived. This position, which tends toward the fixity of the subject, can be seen as analogous to Bhabha's discussion of the role of "pedagogical objects and discourses" (cultural icons, stereotypes, formative events) within the construction of national identity. By way of contrast, Bhabha's key concepts---hybridity, third space, outside the sentence, liminal identification, time-lag, agency in indeterminacy; in short performative practice---envision an identification with difference in a way that allows for the subject to be repositioned and for meaning to be reinscribed.

The dismal national statistics of academic achievement by Native American students in the Anglo-American educational system has long been a source of federal and academic concern. Studies and literature suggest that Native American culture and language highly influence academic achievement. This thesis investigates this influence by analyzing Hopi Indian experiences within the Anglo-American educational system to understand the larger processes of how federal Indian policy has impacted Indian people. Parents and teachers in Hopi Reservation schools were interviewed about their personal educational experiences and perceptions of present Hopi education. The interviews focused on the unique educational situation Hopi students are placed in as a result of their culture and language. The findings confirm the influential role of culture, yet it continues to be tragically undermined and overshadowed by how the bureaucratic processes of the educational system and institutions continue to operate in educating Hopi and other Indian children.

Testo completoAbstract (sommario):
On the southern escarpment of Black Mesa lie the longest continually inhabited settlements in North America. In a land where water is scarce and fierce winds move shifting dunes of sand, the Hopi people continue to dry farm fields of blue corn, irrigate terrace gardens, and tend livestock in one of the world's most biologically diverse food systems. Rooted in an intimate knowledge of local resources and ecology, Hopis produced the majority of food consumed in their communities well into the 1930s. Over the course of the twentieth century a cataclysm of social, economic, and environmental forces reshaped Hopi food and water systems, shifting the use and management of Hopi resources including labor, crops, livestock, and water. As Hopi relationships with these resources changed, so too did the production and consumption of Hopi foods. Farming, ranching, and gardening declined, as did agrobiodiversity. Food from the grocery store replaced food from the fields, contributing to rates of diabetes and obesity significantly higher than the national average. At the same time domestic and industrial development of Hopi ground and surface water transformed Hopi water systems. Today Hopi agriculturalists report declines in the water resources upon which agricultural success depends. These declines are limiting the decision and ability of Hopis to continue traditional agricultural practices. The persistent and long-term ecological observations of farmers, gardeners, and ranchers who continue to interact with these specific resources and the local environment through their agricultural practices are valuable in understanding ecological change over time, including how natural resource development and climate change are affecting traditional subsistence practices.

Testo completoAbstract (sommario):
According to the U.S. Department of Energy, the energy consumption for lighting is estimated to be about 22% of the total electricity generated in the U.S for the year 2001. With the very poor conversion of electrical energy to visible radiation there is an immediate need to adopt new and efficient lighting solutions.
Virginia Tech with its own commitment to reduce energy consumption is continuously looking and experimenting with the latest and most efficient lighting solutions for the interiors and exteriors of buildings on its campus. This study seeks to evaluate the performance of selected exterior and interior lighting solutions through experimental and simulation means.
A proposed exterior lighting solution, for the â Hokieâ light, the most common outdoor lamp fixture on campus, was monitored and evaluated under control settings in the Environmental Systems Laboratory at Virginia Tech. Options for improving the performance of the Hokie light and reducing the uplight were experimentally tested and analyzed. Use of a non-perforated aluminum LiteLid® was selected as the most promising and cost effective solution after analyzing the performance of a variety of options.
For general interior lighting, the feasibility of using advanced lighting methods such as Light Emitting Diodes (LEDs) was explored and analyzed. The performance of LEDs was experimentally compared with the existing fluorescent lamps. Performances of the fluorescent and LED lamps were analyzed for selected parameters such as the quality, color and quantity of the light. The annual energy consumption and utility cost of a representative building on the Virginia Tech campus with existing fluorescent lamps and the proposed LED lamps was estimated using E-Quest simulation software. The building chosen for this purpose was the newly constructed Institute for Critical Technology and Applied Science (ICTAS). Low lumen output of the LED lamps and burnout due to heat dissipation and poor color rendition index (CRI) of the LED lamps makes them unviable for interior applications at this time.Master of Science

Testo completoAbstract (sommario):
This research investigated how meanings associated with race, gender, and class relations in New Zealand mainstream schools are produced, reproduced, and challenged within the arenas of school sport, physical education, and physical activity. The study focused specifically on Maori girls� and young Maori women�s experiences in these arenas in order to determine how race, gender, and class identities interact, and also provided Maori girls and young women with an opportunity to be heard in research. The effects of historical and contemporary discourses, polices, and practices in New Zealand sport and school were reviewed. Theoretical perspectives and methodologies such as critical theory, kaupapa Maori research, feminism, postmodernism, and cultural studies informed the research. Qualitative methods of study such as critical ethnography, document analysis, participant observation, semi-structured interviews, and self-reflective diaries were used in order to observe, investigate, and empower the Maori girls and women, teachers, and the school involved. By utilising social reproduction concepts such as hegemony (Gramsci), discourse (Foucault), and cultural capital (Bourdieu), initiatives in schools that related to Maori girls and young women were investigated at three different levels; the fantasy discourse level, the implementation level, and the reality discourse level. The many identities and ideologies of those involved in the transformation from fantasy to reality had an effect on what was ultimately produced, reproduced, and challenged. These were also implicit and explicit ideologies operating in school sport, physical education, and physical activity arenas that worked to reproduce gendered dualisms, racial stereotypes, and class differentiation. By focusing on power relations at the structural and personal level, instances where Maori girls and young women practised �power over� others, or the �power to act� were discussed. Maori concepts such as whakaiti, whakamaa, whakahiihii, tautoko, aawhina, and manaaki, as well as more colloquial terms such as being hungus, hori, and hoha highlighted the attitudes, values, beliefs and behaviours of participants involved in the study and were used to inform the different levels of analysis. Difficulties in closing the gap between what was hoped for and what actually happened were discussed, and political and practical implications were suggested.
