al-shanfarā (6th century bc) with a group of poets such as taabbata sharran (“he who has put evil in his armpit”) are among the best known of the sulūk (“brigand”) poets. shanfarā was depicted as living a life of solitude and hardship based on the looting and plundering. shanfarā has two long and famous odes. one of them is tāeiyeh and the other is lāmiyyatu'l arab. lāmiyyatu'l arab i...

It is shown that in any polygonal art gallery of n sides it is possible to place bn/3c point guards whose range of vision is 180◦ so that every interior point of the gallery can be seen by at least one of them. The guards can be stationed at any point of the art gallery. This settles an open problem posed by J. Urrutia.  2000 Elsevier Science B.V. All rights reserved.

This article focuses on the different images of Mediterranean Portugal developed by three important Portuguese social scientists of the 20th century: the geographer Orlando Ribeiro, the ethnologist Jorge Dias and the social anthropologist José Cutileiro. The article argues that these different images stem from different ideological attitudes towards the countryside, ranging from pastoral to cou...

Neumann-Lara and Urrutia showed in 1985 that in any set of n points in the plane in general position there is always a pair of points such that any circle through them contains at least n−2 60 points. In a series of papers, this result was subsequently improved till n 4.7 , which is currently the best known lower bound. In this paper we propose a new approach to the problem that allows us, by u...

We introduce a new system of general variational inequalities in Banach spaces. The equivalence between this system of variational inequalities and fixed point problems concerning the nonexpansive mapping is established. By using this equivalent formulation, we introduce an iterative scheme for finding a solution of the system of variational inequalities in Banach spaces. Our main result extend...

CASE Jorge, a 13-year-old Hispanic male, was admitted and treated for acute lymphocytic leukemia 9 months ago. He promptly experienced remission in the first month of therapy. This was followed by 6 months of intensive consolidation that required numerous hospitalizations. He then was placed on maintenance chemotherapy. Jorge is the oldest son of five children born to working-class parents who ...
