STONE TOOL MAKING EVOLVED SEVERAL TIMES IN HUMANS
Hunters in Eurasia developed an innovative way of crafting stone tools 325,000 years ago at the same time as it was being developed in Africa.
A discovery at a prehistoric site in Armenia shows that a way of producing stone tolls known as Levallois technology developed independently at this site.
This approach involves breaking different sizes of flakes off a larger lump of stone.
It is seen as being more economical as fewer raw materials are thrown away in the process.
However, more primitive stone tools were also found at the same site created using a 'bifacial technology' where tools are created by gradually removing flakes from a rock.
It was previously believed that Levallois technology was invented in Africa and spread to Eurasia with expanding human populations.
The discovery suggests that Eurasians were more innovative than previously thought and contradicts the widely-held belief that innovation spread as a result of humanity's migration out of Africa. | Translation - Portuguese
PRODUÇÃO DE FERRAMENTAS DE PEDRA EVOLUIU DIVERSAS VEZES NOS GRUPOS HUMANOS
Caçadores na Eurásia desenvolveram um jeito inovador de produzir ferramentas de pedra 325.000 anos atrás, ao mesmo tempo em que isso era desenvolvido na África.
Uma descoberta num sítio pré-histórico na Armênia mostra que uma maneira de produzir ferramentas de pedra, conhecida como técnica Levallois, foi desenvolvida independentemente nesse sítio.
A técnica envolve quebrar diferentes tamanhos de lascas de um pedaço maior de pedra, e é considerada mais econômica, pois menos material de pedra é desperdiçado no processo.
Não obstante, mais ferramentas de pedra primitivas também foram encontradas no mesmo sítio utilizando uma 'tecnologia bifacial', em que novas ferramentas são criadas através da remoção gradual de lascas de uma pedra.
Acreditava-se que a técnica Levallois tivesse sido inventada na África e disseminada para a Eurásia com a expansão das populações humanas.
A descoberta sugere que os povos da Eurásia eram mais inovadores do que antes se acreditava, e contradiz a amplamente difundida crença de que a inovação espalhou-se como resultado da migração humana para fora da África. | English to Portuguese: Clinical Measurements: Ranges and Accuracies

Clinical Measurements: Ranges and Accuracies
This section states the accuracies for measurements made using the BK Medical range of ultrasound systems. A table containing accuracies for specific transducers can be found in the Technical Data (BZ2100) that accompanies this user guide.
The measurement accuracies are based on the assumption of “ideal” tissue, that is, a tissue characterized by a sound velocity of 1540 m/s. When making clinical measurements with ultrasound, errors may arise which are not taken into account in this section. For example,
• The sound velocity may vary from approximately 1450 m/s in fatty tissue to 1585 m/s in muscle. This can, in simple cases, give rise to errors of up to 6% for linear measurements. This inaccuracy may be further increased by refraction occurring at tissue boundaries.
• The user can introduce errors when using approximate formulas, when positioning the system’s calipers with respect to the ultrasound image and when outlining structures in the image.
• The ellipsoid volume approximation, described in this user guide, is only applicable when the cross section of the structure being studied approximates an ellipse (the circle being a special ellipse), and when the structure is roughly symmetrical about the selected axis of rotation.
NOTE: The choice of the axis of rotation is important for the calculation of the volume. A vertical axis gives a different volume than a horizontal axis. The minimum requirement is that the cross section outlined by the user should be convex. If the user draws a non-convex outline, an inaccuracy is introduced which is not taken into account in this section. In this case, the system calculates and displays the convex hull of the figure, that is, the smallest convex figure containing the nonconvex figure outlined by the user (see Fig 2-7). The system bases the calculation of the ellipsoid volume on the convex hull. | Translation - Portuguese
Medidas Clínicas: Alcances e Precisões
Esta seção informa as precisões para medidas feitas com os sistemas de ultrassom feitos pela BK Medical. Uma tablela contendo as precisões para transdutores específicos pode ser encontrada nas Informações Técnicas (BZ2100) que acompanham este manual de usuário.
As medidas de precisão são baseadas na hipótese de tecidos “ideais”, ou seja, tecidos caracterizados por uma velocidade do som de 1540 m/s. Ao utilizar o ultrassom para obter medidas clínicas, erros que não estão considerados nesta seção podem surgir. Por exemplo,
• A velocidade do som pode variar de aproximadamente 1450 m/s em tecido adiposo a 1585 m/s em tecido muscular. Isso pode, em casos simples, dar espaço a erros de até 6% para medidas lineares. Essa imprecisão ainda pode aumentar por refração ocorrendo nos limites teciduais.
• O usuário pode introduzir erros ao utilizar fórmulas aproximadas, quando a posicionar os compassos de calibre do sistema em relação à imagem do ultrassom e ao traçar estruturas na imagem.
• A aproximação elipsoide volumétrica, descrita neste manual de usuário, somente é aplicável quando a seção transversal da estrutura estudada aproxima uma elipse (o círculo sendo uma elipse especial), e quando a estrutura é aproximadamente simétrica no eixo de rotação selecionado.
NOTA: A escolha do eixo de rotação é importante para o cálculo do volume. Um eixo vertical resulta num volume diverso ao de um eixo horizontal. O requisito mínimo é que a seção transversal traçada pelo usuário seja convexa. Se o usuário efetuar um traçado não convexo, uma imprecisão, que está desconsiderada nesta seção, será introduzida. Nesse caso, o sistema calcula e exibe a envoltória convexa da figura, ou seja, a menor figura convexa contendo a figura não convexa traçada pelo usuário (ver Fig 2-7). O sistema baseia o cálculo do volume elipsoide na envoltória convexa. | English to Portuguese: A Lesson in French Dressing

A Lesson in French Dressing
Paris: A mélange of masculine tailoring, nostalgic textiles and a touch of eccentricity encompassed Victor and Rolf’s vision of French dressing. The duo updated traditional houndstooth in technical nylon satin, lending silhouettes stiff and daring proportions. Lashings of asymmetric ruffles created flirtatious and fresh femininity, whilst volants were folded graphically, developing modern and unexpected shapes. Floral and lace prints and fabrics poked fun at female stereotypes receiving an injection of the duos satirical touch; houndstooth prints were morphed and deformed, whilst lady-like lace met sporty neoprene in a fitted coat dress. Floral appliques were administered in acid yellow, adorning roll neck skater dresses and black tops. Masculine tailoring counterbalanced the feminine mood; covetable roomy cropped trousers in houndstooth and jet black created boyish proportions and gave a smart and contemporary juxtaposition to the whole collection. – Anna Ross

Uma Lição de Moda Francesa
Paris: Uma mescla de costura com estilo masculino, tecidos nostálgicos e um toque de excentricidade caracteriza a visão de Viktor & Rolf da moda francesa. O duo atualizou a tradicional estampa houndstooth em cetim, emprestando proporções firmes e ousadas à silhueta. Babados abundantes e assimétricos criaram uma feminilidade nova e provocante, e ao mesmo tempo foram dobrados graficamente, ganhando formas modernas e inusitadas. Estampas e tecidos florais e rendados provocaram os estereótipos femininos recebendo uma injeção do toque satírico do duo; estampas houndstooth foram modificadas e deformadas, enquanto rendas refinadas combinaram-se ao esportivo neoprene em um casaco ajustado ao corpo. Apliques florais foram administrados em amarelo ácido, adornando vestidos skater de gola alta e tops pretos. O estilo masculino contrabalanceou o ar feminino; calças cropped largas e desejáveis em houndstooth e preto criaram proporçoes de garoto e concederam uma justaposição inteligente e contemporânea para toda a coleção. – Anna Ross
