When creating a piece of art to be just that – a piece to be put up for display – Jones preferred methods and tools are oil on canvas.  For digital or office work, his methods will be more straightforward but when the piece is going to receive a place of pride in one’s home, he wants to put in his love for art, which centers around the use of oil on canvas.

Jeff enjoys finding new ways to capture an image in the real world.  He likes to focus on truth and reality, but making it into art.  He seeks to create a human voice through his canvas creations and ensure that whatever gets displayed, is a true window into the world outside.  He tries to really create art as a way of appreciating and enjoying life in a more beautiful way.

The archaeological works, foreseen in the Notebook of Incubencies of the Taken over on a contract basis one of Construction EN 337? Variant of Board (1 Phase), had been praised as measured of patrimonial proteco after the identification of archaeological vestiges in the scope of the accompaniment of the Taken over on a contract basis one. The first intervention (sond. 1) was after praised the identification of a possible structure, which if found associates material of attributable tipologias the chronology Roman, in the corresponding area to the zone of implantation of future Rotunda 1, of Knot 1. Later sond revealed necessary to the accomplishment of one another sounding of evaluation (.

Introduction the present report intends to give to know the result of the carried through archaeological intervention in the scope of the construction of the Vincci Hotel, in the Decrease of Lisbon, in the Street of Is Julio, 47-57/Rua of the Commerce, 32-38. The archaeological works had been of the responsibility of the Signatory, jointly with C. Rabbit, having the same ones been after executed authorization of the Portuguese Institute of Archaeology, in accordance with the legislation in vigor; namely: Decree n. 107/2001, of 8 of September (Law of the Cultural Patrimnio) and of the Decree n. 270/1999, of 11 of June (Regulation of archaeological works). The works had been executed in two phases. A first one that it elapsed of 18 of December of 2006 the 23 of February of 2007, and one second phase, that elapsed between June and August of 2007 (the two phases of hollowing had had a hiato, other people’s to it equips of Archaeology, and that it was arrested with questions of security guard in the workmanship, that had compelled to the execution of micron-it would estake).

The place one meets registered in cadastre with CNS 21930. 2. Antecedents the area for us intervencionada already had been white of archaeological works. Carried through in 2004, under direco of the archaeologist Ana Barbosa Wood, the archaeological works aimed at safeguard it of eventual structures or elements of archaeological and/or patrimonial interest. During the execution of the related works to pombalinos vestiges and daily pay-pombalinos had been identified. In sounding B to a structure consisting of limy blocks and on brick of donkey for mortar, guided in direction NW had been identified. The responsible archaeologist admits the possibility of if dealing with structures daily pay-pombalinas, data that its orientation is contrary to the comumente used one in the pombalinas constructions (axle N-S). The Archaeologist relates despite, in one another sounding, assigned for sounding D, a pombalino sewer was identified, or after-pombalino.

Introduction the present document aims at to give knowledge of the results of the archaeological works, of manual hollowing, carried through to Pk 131+326, of ' ' Modernization of the Line of the Side Low? Chunk Castello Branco? Valley of Prazeres' ' , materialize as measured of minimizao specific praised in the sequncia of the detention of archaeological vestiges in the scope of the archaeological accompaniment of the Taken over on a contract basis one. The Taken over on a contract basis one, whose Owner of Workmanship is Railroad National Net – REFER, EPE, was consigned to the trust consisting of the companies: Ramalho Rosa Cobetar, s.a., Conduril? Construtora Duriense, S.A., Electricidade Industrial Portuguesa, s.a. and Convensa? You contract y Ventas, s.a. The works in question, of carcter of emergency, are fit in Category D of the archaeological works, and had been developed as measured of minimizao in a small farm that, for share effect human being, if found in eminent danger of direct and negative total destruction (impacte for prossecuo of the Workmanship). The intervention was efectivada under Scientific Direco of the Dr Raquel Caote Raposo, making to fulfill the National Legislation in vigor. Namely: Law n 13/85, of 6 of July (Law of the Portuguese Patrimnio Cultural), with the posterior alterations that had been introduced it by the Law n 19/2000, of 10 of August; Decree n 270/99, of 15 of July (Regulation of Archaeological Works), with the posterior alterations that had been introduced it by the Decree n 287/00, of 10 of November. The archaeological intervention of that, for the gift, if of the knowledge, it elapsed enters days 31 of May and 01 of June of 2010. Antecedents In elapsing of the archaeological accompaniment of one of the workmanship fronts (reperfilamento of slopes), to Pk 131+326, had been detected archaeological vestiges, which if make to constitute of a socket excavated in the gross sand, where if it verifies the existence of a stock market of ceramic materials and small coals in its interior.

Thick way, would be to infer as archaeological systems in regional terms are distributed, as the feies of the landscape, or better, by means of the examination of the archaeological register (technological formal attributes/and space distribution), to infer on the interactions between gruposhumanos and the paleoambientes concerning the distribution of resources and exploration; standard of mobility, choices related to the establishment of diversified stiosarqueolgicos (residential; of comment; of attainment dematria-cousin; of she fishes, hunting and she collects; ritualstico etc.). According to Binford, the small farms distributed in the space generate oque it call nestings, results of different occupations. Paracompreendermos these standards we must lead in account: ) the frequency that asocupaes had occurred in different places; b) the processes that geraramassociaes between the archaeological material in the small farms. In such a way to devemoscompreender the processes that had operated in the past, what the author calls as ahabilidade of the researcher in correctly inferring the causes of the efeitosobservados ones, that is, of the formation of the archaeological register. Moreover, the way that a group estdiretamente uses the conditional habitat for the standard of mobility and the return for the stiohabitao (base), such entailed condition to biogeogrficas characteristics doterritrio (that the author calls of zonation) e, therefore, sempreexistindo a cultural geography in this area of ‘ ‘ atuao’ ‘ prehistoric dosgrupos. For mobility standard the author understands as maneirapela which the landscape around of the small farm base differently is adjusted emrelao to the distribution of resources, has seen that ‘ ‘ (…) It is thoughtmobility that given place may be economically modified relative you the humansystem’ ‘ (Binford, 1982, p.08). E, finally, Binford in alert of the danger in considerarrelaes between deposicionais episodes and the occupational episodes. According to it, the indices and magnitudes of the stratification of the remanescentesarqueolgicos are generally consequences of processes operating almost ouindependentemente of the occupational episodes, since the relative processes of deposioso to the indices of the geologic dynamics of the area (Binford, 1982, p.16).

Below abordaremosa architecture MVC that it tends to fulfill with its objectives. 4. Architecture MVC architecture MVC was developed to be used emprojetos of visual interface in Smalltalk, programming language quejuntamente with the C++ gained great recognition at the time, the MVCfoi created in the decade of 70, and after these years of its creation still it is a patternaplicvel in the most varied applications, mainly in applications web. The management of the interface with the user is a tarefadifcil for the desenvolvedores, however basic for the success of the system, alemda difficulty, the complexity in the confirmation of the data where to necessitamosapresentar to the user of correct form and still to manage the application for osusurios they can control them appropriately, is basic that the interfaces eo controlling are synchronized. A time has a simple way to understand the MVC that we define, it as an architecture standard, MVC is the same agreement deum design pattern: first we understand the problem (that it is the motivation for osurgimento of a standard), and after to understand as this standard decides esteproblemas, and which the advantages that it offers in them, but with this are to necessrioseguir the scratch the MVC. When a software starts to be great complex e, muitosdados is presented for the users, feels the necessity to apply umaarquitetura that facilitates our work, since the organization of the project, asdivises of the responsibilities until the possible modifications that will be able serefetuadas throughout the development of software for this had needed dividiro project in three objects to apply the MVC. 4.1 Objectives of the Architecture For the Gamma et al. the MVC are: MVC he is composed for three types of objects. The model is oobjeto of application, the sight is the presentation in the screen and the controller defines amaneira as the interface of the user it reacts to the entrances of the same.

For other people’s reasons to it equips of Archaeology, and that if they had arrested with questions of security guard in workmanship, the archaeological hollowing elapsed in two phases. The first one that it elapsed enters 18 of December of 2006 and 23 of February of 2007; one second phase, after the execution of micron-would estake, and that it elapsed between June and August of 2007. The methodology of used hollowing was the proposal for E. Harris, with the removal of the layers for inverse order to its natural deposition, with definition of estratigrficas units. The hollowing area was square-lined according to alphanumeric system.

The photographic and graphical register was efectuado, through the archaeological drawing with the coordinate correspondents (X, Y and Z), as well as described all the observed estratigrficas units. The exhumed archaeological material was conditioned in accordance with the UE' provenincia s, and registados in inventory fiche. Altimetry was reference in the registers of intervention, being that all the quotas had been taken from a point f, fixture (= 0,87), situated in the door-sill of access to the building (for the Street of They are Julio). The archaeological hollowing of this area allowed to certify the presence us of structures daily pay and after-terramoto of 1755, that centuries XIV-XV and ends of the century are marked out with buoys between Xvii-beginnings of century XVIII. In the area of short hollowing a wall potentially older was also rank, that will be able to date of centuries XI-XII (in its base one was discovered breaks up contends deep of vidrada goblet the melado one, with decoration the manganese, typically datvel of this Islamic period). The archaeological hollowing after initiated the paved with flagstone removal of pombalino, that all covered the internal area of the building, and constitua for flagstone, limy, rectangulares (final of century XVIII). All the area if found covered by a first argilo-arenaceous rubbish layer, of texture and coloration 0 variable, between the chestnut and the yellowish one.

Mts of length presents 0,65×0,52. UE 06? Layer of chestnut coloration, little compacts, of arenaceous matrix. It presents little estratigrfica power, oscillating between 9-20 cm UE 07? Granite block of small dimension, located in the cut North (section NE). UE 08? Composed unit for geologic substratum (gross sand). UE 09? Two granticos blocks, rectangulares, guided N-S (cut North, section NW), which if finds associated knock down it assigned for UE 10. UE 10? It knocks down. Ceramic material, of construction (maioritariamente tegulae) deposited on UE 08, accusing one knocks down. Sounding 2 Aquando of the desmatao works and pickling in the zone of Rotunda 1 of Knot 1, it was detected, in one of the cuts of the slope, in the scope of the Archaeological Accompaniment of supplies cited Taken over on a contract basis, an archaeological structure, which if found material chronology associates archaeological Roman.

Located in the perimeter of the archaeological area assigned by Fifth of the Hollows, and being able the related structure to be associated to other existing ones, and previously identified aquando of the accomplishment of the archaeological sounding of diagnosis, 10×10 mts (Sond. 1), had decided the responsible Archaeologists for the Accompaniment to suspend the execution of any share in the related front of work. Signaled and forbidden the zone of occurrence of the form vestiges to preserve its integrity, it was, after meeting with the had intervening Entities, praised the accomplishment of a new sounding of evaluation, 6×6 mts, for understanding and crono-cultural framing of the vestiges. The sounding was implanted in the land, guided the North, in Linking 2 of Rotunda 1, having been that almost the totality of intervencionada area corresponds the rummaged ground levels, result of respeitantes interventions to the reformularization of the preexisting way and plantation of olival and came. In the continuation of the hollowing, carried through with resource the half manuals, were possible to observe the following estratigrafia: UE 01? Layer consisting of land of chestnut, very dark coloration, and with the significant presence of vegetal vestiges composites for roots, as well as ramas of Oliveira and grapevine.

Before the MVC, the projects of interface for the user tended in grouping these objects. MVCpara to increase flexibility and the reutilizao. (GAMMA et al. 2000, P. 20).

The MVC have as main objective: to separate to business-oriented oulgicos data (Model) of the interface of the user (View) and the flow daaplicao (Controller), the idea is to allow that a denegcios message of the logic can be had access and be visualized through some interfaces. Naarquitetura MVC, the logic business-oriented, that is, our Model sabequantas nor which the interfaces with the user this not showing its state, the viewno if matters of where this receiving the data, but it has that to guarantee quesua appearance reflects the state of the model, that is, whenever the states domodelo move, the model notifies view so that the same ones are modernized. 4,2 Characteristics of the Architecture Separation between the codes, View and entreo Controller that gerenciaas relations Model and the View. It separates the logic of businesses of the presentation. It possesss reverse speed-usability, we can create libraries to eadicionar interfaces easily. It is possible to develop it in parallel, that is, to podecomear the project for any layer.

It divides the responsibilities, that is, programmers naprogramao and web designers in the visual construction of software. It reduces the effort in the maintenance of software, therefore asalteraes are effected separately not affecting the other layers dosistema. 4,3 Architecture As the architecture acts in the infrastructure of the systems, as communications, interfaces with users and compilers. Now abordaremoscada one of the layers of architecture MVC, and the relationship with umbrowser in applications web, with objects request and response, where request o asked for of an information or event, and response is the reply of this order exit of the data after effected the procedure request.

From century XVIII, it is of if considering that it had great evolution in the architecture. It was there that the use of metallic structures in the constructions started. Such innovation provided to the architects and engineers more complex, bolder, more efficient solutions and of highest quality. It enters the pioneering workmanships in which they had been used this type of structure, we can cite the Ironbridge Bridge in England, this bridge was inaugurated in 1779. From this time it was initiated wave of innovation in the civil construction through the metallic structures. Today we see them we modernssimos buildings in the great cities.

Architecture that launches hand of metallic structure is always on the modernity image. It is of if to consider that constructions that use this type of structure are advantageous not only because of the good aesthetic impression, but also because of the reduction of construction time, rationalization in the use of materials, economy in the workmanship hand. These are some factors that had taken this model of construction to advance in the modern times. Researchers say that the biggest market for the steel producers in the exterior is the civil construction. In Brazil he has a necessity to attempt against for this fact; if the construction based on metallic structures will be valued in this country, will have certainly an advance in the economy of the country.
