Les textes poétiques d''A.-J.

Un enregistrement du groupe The Ex, mélange de sonorités divergentes, se juxtapose à la lecture élaborant une poésie sonore.

This thesis is an exploration of the role of processional architecture in articulating the Qutb Shahi necropolis in southern India at the beginning of the Qutb Shahi dynasty (mid-16th C). More precisely, it analyzes two processional pathways that connected Golconda Fortress to the Qutb Shahi necropolis. The pathways were significant because of the political and spiritual qualities they held. They extended northward toward a Sufi shrine and water complex, and beyond that to the antecedent capital of Bidar 135 kilometers to the northwest. Later, these paths would be important in connecting Golconda and the necropolis with the city of Hyderabad founded in 1591. Methods used to examine these pathways are a mix of historical, topographical, visual, and spatial investigations as they relate to the wider political and spiritual patronages of the sultanate. The first part of each chapter provides context of the wider patronage of each sultan. The second part explores the landscape of procession by moving through the pathways as they were laid out. The third part shows how the series of structures take advantage of the natural topography by framing key "views" of the processional ways and thereby connect Golconda to the necropolis. The final section of each chapter shows how these larger perspectives help to interpret the spatial layout of tombs on the necropolis. Through this analysis of four spatial relationships, the thesis shows how the tomb complex was defined by an initial pair of orientations to the East and South, which shifted to a primary emphasis to the South during the reign of Sultan Ibrahim Quli Qutb Shah (1550-1580), and back to the East during the reign of Sultan Muhammad Quli Qutb Shah (1580-1611.) As the Sultanate evolved, the pathways became, and remained, as important as the critical monuments of spiritual and political significance that they connected.

Mentoring is an intervention growing in popularity with a weak research foundation. This study combines mentoring and social skill training within a positive behavior support framework. Targeting a fourth-grade, Latino student at risk for emotional and behavioral disorders, this single-subject study looks at his ability to master a specific social skill. The mentor served to reinforce social skill learning through practicing, role-playing, and goal setting. The student was chosen using the Systematic Screening for Behavior Disorders and the social skill was created using the School Social Behavior Scales that identified social skill strengths and weaknesses. Student demonstration of the social skill was monitored two to three times each week. The student made progress toward mastery, but did not fully master the social skill. Additionally, pre- and post-School Social Behavior Scales showed increased social skill competency and decreased anti-social behaviors during the five-month mentoring intervention. Results indicated that short-term mentoring positively influenced the student''s general level of social competency but was not sufficient for the mastery of the selected social skill.

Australia has long been observed to experience ENSO (El Niño Southern Oscillation) of alternating flooding and drought. It is currently experiencing its fourth year of La Niña heavy rain and flooding. At some stage this will revert to one or more years of El Nino drought, often severe. In previous years of drought consideration was given to alternative water supply including recycled wastewater. This paper reflects upon the case of the previous period of El Niño drought in South East Queensland with the aim of contributing to drought mitigation planning through reviving consideration of recycled water.
