Hidden Struggles: Black Women's Activism And Black Masculinity, Julia Sudbury

Sociology

Julia Sudbury looks at the complexity and the differences between the lives of black women and those of black men.

En-Gendering Anti-Racism: Towards A Politics Of Social Transformation, Julia Sudbury

Sociology

As we approach the new millennium, African, Asian and Caribbean activists in Britain appear to be poised at the proverbial fork in the road. Do we march into a future marked by a pluralism of ethnicities, identities and interests? Or do we continue to hark bak to the golden days of black struggle -- when the movement was united in deed, action and purpose -- in the frail hope that outdated or failed notions of black unity will be revitalized?

The need for a new strategy for anti-racist struggle is evident. Increasing social stratification in black communities and the emergence …

Using Avhrr Data For Quantitative Estimation Of Vegetation Conditions: Calibration And Validation, Anatoly A. Gitelson, Felix Kogan, E. Zakarin, L. Spivak, L. Lebed

School of Natural Resources: Faculty Publications

NDVI-derived Vegetation Condition Index (VCI) was compared with vegetation density, biomass and reflectance measured in the fields. The VCI numerically estimates fluctuation of NDVI related to intra-annual weather change only and is a measure of weather impact on vegetation. Test fields were located in different climatic (annual precipitation 150-700 mm) and ecological zones (semi-desert to steppe-forest) with elevation from 200 to 700 m in Kazakhstan. A range of NDVI variation was from 0.05 to 0.47. The determination coefficient between AVHRR-derived vegetation state and actually measured vegetation density of more than 0.76 was achieved. For the first time it was shown …

Food Safety Regulations - Cross-Border Implications - A U.S. Perspective, Matthew Schaefer

Nebraska College of Law: Faculty Publications

The United States and Canada are largely in agreement on food safety regulation issues. So, let me set up the debate between several parties not in the room. The debate at the time the Sanitary & Phytosanitary (SPS) Agreement was concluded was between the Office of the United States Trade Representative (USTR) and some consumer advocates, like Ralph Nader, and expresidential candidates, like Pat Buchanan. The claim by the USTR was that the SPS Agreement would allow an increase in trade by eliminating protectionist barriers under the guise of food safety standards while still allowing the United States to maintain …

Hipaa And Its Related Legislation: A New Role For Erisa In The Regulation Of Private Health Care Plans?, Colleen E. Medill

Nebraska College of Law: Faculty Publications

The enactment of the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act of 1996 (HIPAA) and its related legislation, the Newborns' and Mothers' Health Protection Act of 1996 (NMHPA) and the Mental Health Parity Act of 1996 (MHPA) (hereinafter collectively referred to as "HIPAA and its related legislation") signals a possible new role for the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974 (ERISA), the federal law governing private health care plans. HIPAA and its related legislation represent a broadening, in the private health care context, of ERISA's Title I protective provisions from disclosure and fiduciary administration requirements to substantive benefit and coverage …

The Sec's New Regulation Ce Exemption: Federal-State Coordination Run Rampant, C. Steven Bradford

Nebraska College of Law: Faculty Publications

The Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC") recently adopted a novel exemption from the registration requirements of the Securities Act of 1933. This new exemption, Regulation CE, contains a single rule, Rule 1001, that exempts from registration "[o]ffers and sales of securities that satisfy the conditions of paragraph (n) of Sec. 25102 of the California Corporations Code ...." California section 25102(n), in turn, exempts offerings to "qualified purchasers" and includes a "test-the- waters" provision that allows issuers to solicit purchasers in writing, even if non-qualified investors receive the solicitation.

Regulation CE is part of the SEC's continuing effort to ease the …

Integrating Restorative Justice And Therapeutic Jurisprudence, Robert F. Schopp

Nebraska College of Law: Faculty Publications

Thomas Scheff describes and endorses community conferences intended to develop dispositions of some criminal cases that promote individual and community interests in a manner consistent with Restorative Justice (RJ). He suggests that the research program known as Therapeutic Jurisprudence (TJ) might provide a useful structure for RJ, but he does not provide detailed discussion of the proposed integration of RJ and TJ. This comment clarifies and examines some potentially interesting aspects of such an integration. Section II sketches some central features of TJ and of RJ, and section III considers potential applications of the former to the latter.

Methylenetetrahydrofolate Reductase And Methionine Synthase: Biochemistry And Molecular Biology, R. G. Matthews, Christal A. Sheppard, C. Goulding

Nebraska College of Law: Faculty Publications

Methylenetetrahydrofolate reductase and cobalamin-dependent methionine synthase catalyze the penultimate and ultimate steps in the biosynthesis of methionine in prokaryotes, and are required for the regeneration of the methyl group of methionine in mammals. Defects in either of these enzymes can lead to hyperhomocysteinemia. The sequences of the human methylenetetrahydrofolate reductase and methionine synthase are now known, and show clear homology with their bacterial analogues. Mutations in both enzymes that are known to occur in humans and to be associated with hyperhomocysteinemia affect residues that are conserved in the bacterial enzymes. Structure/function studies on the bacterial proteins, summarized in this review, …

Tinigible Body Macrophages In Regulation Of Germinal Center Reactions, John P. Smith, Gregory F. Burton, John G. Tew, Andras K. Szakal

Anatomy and Neurobiology Publications

Tingible body macrophages (TBM), long thought simply as scavengers of apoptotic lymphocytes, are located in the unique microenvironment of germinal centers in close proximity to antigen-retaining follicular dendritic cells (FDC). Observations that TBM endocytose FDC-iccosomal (immune-complex coated bodies) antigen suggested that TBM might present this antigen and help regulate the germinal center reaction. To test for antigen presentation, the ovalbumin (OVA)-specific T_H hybridoma, 3DO-54.8, which produces IL-2 on receiving effective presentation of OVA, were used as responders to OVA-bearing TBM. Results showed that OVA-bearing TBM failed to induce IL-2 production. Furthermore, addition of TBM to IL- 2-inducing positive controls …

Effects Of Metformin On Spontaneous And Clomiphene-Induced Ovulation In The Polycystic Ovary Syndrome, John E. Nestler , M.D., Daniela J. Jakubowicz , M.D., William S. Evans , M.D., Renato Pasquali , M.D.

Obstetrics and Gynecology Publications

ABSTRACT

Background Obese women with the polycystic ovary syndrome are relatively unresponsive to the induction of ovulation by clomiphene. We hypothesized that reducing insulin secretion by administering metformin would increase the ovulatory response to clomiphene.

Methods We performed oral glucose-tolerance tests before and after the administration of 500 mg of metformin or placebo three times daily for 35 days in 61 obese women with the polycystic ovary syndrome. Women who did not ovulate spontaneously were then given 50 mg of clomiphene daily for five days while continuing to take metformin or placebo. Serum progesterone was measured on days 14, 28, …
