Is Eu Policy Eroding The Sovereignty Of Non-Member States?, Jeremy Rabkin

Chicago Journal of International Law

In the long run, the most important tensions between Europe and the United States may not derive from differing policies toward Russia, or China, or the Middle East. The most important issues may arise over something that is fundamental to the European Union's own structure and legitimacy-namely, its systematic program of eroding or reconfiguring national sovereignty. This EU posture has many practical ramifications for US policy. But it also presents a clear ideological alternative. A world more in accord with EU designs will be a world in which national sovereignty has less and less meaning. Is that the kind of …

Los Anfibios Del Monumento Natural Barro Colorado, Parque Nacional Soberania Y Areas Adyacentes, Rafael O. De Sá

Biology Faculty Publications

This book focuses on the batrachofauna of Barro Colorado Nature Monument. Soberania National Park and adjacent areas. It complements other recent publications on Neotropical amphibians such as those by Rodriguez and Duellman ( 1994) on Peru, Achaval and Olmos (1995) on Uruguay, and Meyer and Foster (1996) on Belize. The goal of these books is to reach a wider audience than the more technical batrachofaunal summaries-e.g., Frogs of Boracéia (Heyer 1990). Amphibians of Argentina (Cei 1985), and Frogs of the Genus Eleutherodactylus in Western Ecuador (Lynch and Duellman 1997). These geographically focused guides are especially useful to students, amateur biologists, …

Mechanisms Of Calcium Buffering And Aging In Neurons: Testing The Limits Of Homeostasis, William James Pottorf Ii

Loma Linda University Electronic Theses, Dissertations & Projects

Intracellular calcium ([Ca²⁺]i) is an ubiquitous second messenger that integrates multiple and diverse neuronal pathways that include development and maturation, gene expression, synaptic plasticity, transmitter release, excitability, and even cell death. Upon neuronal excitation the [Ca²⁺]i increases rapidly and the calcium buffering system reacts quickly to restore [Ca²⁺]i to basal levels in order to reset the cell for the next stimulus and avoid prolonged exposure to cytotoxic levels of high [Ca²⁺]i. The aging process appears to causes multiple changes in the ability of neurons to regulate [Ca²⁺]i homeostasis and an …

Connexin-32 Contributes To Radiation Resistance In Thyroid Follicles, Da-Thao Dinh Tran

Loma Linda University Electronic Theses, Dissertations & Projects

The objective of this study was to examine the role of gap junctions in the radiation resistance of thyroid follicles. The question of whether gap junctional intercellular communication plays an important role in the “contact effect”, wherein cells in direct apposition are more resistant to the damaging effects of radiation, has been debated for years. We used the Fischer rat thyroid cell line (FRTL-5) to carry out our experiments. This thesis is divided into two parts: 1) characterization of gap junctional properties in FRTL-5 cells and, 2) exposure of these cells to radiation.

We found that, unlike primary thyroid cells, …

Attentional Processing In Parkinson's Disease: Hyperkinetic And Akinetic Type, Christine Diane Kraus

Loma Linda University Electronic Theses, Dissertations & Projects

Parkinson's disease (P.D.) has long been thought of as a single disorder. Recent research involving neurochemistry, neurophysiology, and detailed analysis of symptoms, have created a basis for questioning the concept that P.D. is a singular disorder. Literature suggests there may be two primary subtypes (with the possibility of others). The two probable subtypes are hyperkinetic, in which tremor is the predominate symptom and akinetic, in which, gait freezing and postural instability predominate.

In both of these pathological manifestations, several investigators have noted cognitive deficits including attention. The differences in symptomotology and neuropathology attributed to these probable subtypes suggest that there …

On The Assignment Of Gender To Chicano Anglicisms: Processes And Results, Robert N. Smead

Faculty Publications

The creation of neologisms through linguistic borrowing is a complex process. For donor language models to be transformed into host language replicas, phonological and morphological adaptation must take place. Part and parcel of that adaptation is the assignment of gender to loanwords in a host language like Spanish. The present article examines gender assignment in two corpora of loanwords (New Mexican and Southern Colorado Spanish: N=212 and General Chicano Spanish: N=595). Through the application of variable rule methodology (GoldVarb 2), five factors are posited as significant. Two of these categorically determine gender assignment when present: (1) the biological sex of …

Bulletin 4435 - Exotic Diseases - Pigs, Agriculture Western Australia

Bulletins 4000 -

An exotic disease is a disease that is not present in Australia.

If an exotic disease did occur in Australia it would cause production losses, stock deaths and stop exports of primary production. When export markets are lost they can only be re-established once it is proven the disease is eradicated

The Effects Of Patch Size On Hummingbird Visitation And Pollination In Habracanthus Belpharohachis, September 2000, Monica Lisa Saldana

Monteverde Institute: Tropical Ecology and Conservation

In tropical forests, plant species are sparsely distributed and in order to increase their probability of pollination they have developed bright, showy flowers that offer nectar to attract pollinators. In this study, I examined how the pollination rates are affected by the number of inflorescences present in patches of Habracanthus belpharohachis. In order to do this, I measured the percent of pollinated flowers from 22 small patches with one to five inflorescences, and flowers from 14 large patches with more than 15 inflorescences. I also recorded the number of visitations by the primary pollinator of H. belpharohachis, the Purple-throated Mountain-gem …

Anti-Predator Behavior In Birds: Reactions To Raptor Calls, September 2000, Robin Elahi

Monteverde Institute: Tropical Ecology and Conservation

Birds display a number of defense mechanisms against their predators, including camouflage, mobbing, fleeing, and aggregational behavior. I studied the responses of 32 bird species to songbird and raptor calls to see if birds displayed anti-predator behavior in response to raptor calls in comparison with songbird calls. One focus of my study was avian defensive strategies, namely flocking and concealment, so observations took into consideration different conditions: whether the bird was solitary or in a group, and whether it was exposed or hidden in vegetation. A previous study showed that crows could distinguish between raptor calls of their predators and …

An Epidemiological Investigation Of Foot And Mouth Disease In A Dairy Farm In Uthaithani Province, Usuma Kukietnan, Suvut Chalajon

The Thai Journal of Veterinary Medicine

An epidemiological investigation of Foot and Mouth Disease (FMD) in Sawang Arom Dairy Co-operatives farm, between September-December 1998, found that 59 dairy farms holding 720 cattle, reported outbreak of the disease. Clinical examination revealed clinical signs in 65.55% of farms. Abortion (2.08%), stillbirth (0.83%) and mortality (0.83%) were found among the sick animals. The outbreaks were evident after introducing animals into farms where pregnant cows and calves were not vaccinated. Control of disease was achieved after 9 weeks following vaccination with trivalent- FMD vaccine (type O, A, Asia 1) which was given to all ≥ 3 mo. old calves and …

The Antimicrobial Resistance Of Salmonellae Isolated From Animals, Indhira Kramomtong, Channarong Rodkhum, Waree Niyomthum

The Thai Journal of Veterinary Medicine

A total of 39 salmonella isolates were obtained from organ samples taken from duck, chicken and pig carcasses on 34 farms. They were tested for resistance to 11 antimicrobial drugs. 69.2% of isolates were resistant to at least one drug. Most resistances was shown to tetracycline and sulfamethoxazole while most isolates were susceptible to norfloxacin, enrofloxacin, flumiquine and furazolidone. Ampicillin and cephapirin were effective on the salmonella isolates from ducks and chicken, whereas kanamycin was effective on the isolates from chicken and pigs. Trimethoprim was the drug of choice on the isolates from ducks. Forty eight percent of the isolates …
