Grassfed Beef From A Global Perspective, Glen Aiken Oct 2012

Grassfed Beef From A Global Perspective, Glen Aiken

Kentucky Grazing Conference

Beef production and marketing has been shifting over the last few decades in response to unstable cattle markets, higher input costs, and a need to better meet market demands. Advancement of vertical integration of the production and marketing of beef calves through retained ownership from suckling calf to feedyard has certainly enhanced the genetics of the U.S. beef herd and improved the consistency of beef products. Another shift in production has been an increased number of grassfed cattle (grass finished) for marketing either organic or locally grown beef. These niche markets have developed primarily from concerns of urban consumers regarding …

Towards A Unionized Professoriat: The Dilemma Of The Profession, Laszlo Hetenyi Oct 2012

Towards A Unionized Professoriat: The Dilemma Of The Profession, Laszlo Hetenyi

Education and Culture

No development since the Morrill Act is likely to produce more dramatic changes in higher education than the current trend towards collective bargaining in the professoriat. In 1966 only eleven institutions beyond the secondary level operated under faculty master contracts; by mid-1975 some 30 colleges and universities found themselves in this situation. Nor is the trend restricted to any one type of institution - only the elite private universities have, thus far, remained largely exempt. State and city systems (SUNY, CUNY, the New Jersey State Colleges), large public universities (Rutgers, Wayne State University), medium-size universities (Oakland University, Central Michigan University), …


Affirmative Action Plans: A Policy Analysis, Elizabeth Steiner Maccia Oct 2012

Affirmative Action Plans: A Policy Analysis, Elizabeth Steiner Maccia

Education and Culture

My position in this paper is not one of advocacy but one of analysis. There is no need for a philosopher to reinforce the voices of women. Nor am I here in a position of the compleat analyst. There is no need for a philosopher to reinforce the voices of scientists and other non-philosophic analysts. I am here as one whose intellectual loyalty is to the pursuit of logical and moral illumination.

In the pursuit of logical illumination, I shall attempt to explicate policy, policy analysis, and affirmative action plans. In the pursuit of moral illumination, I shall discuss the …

Perspective On Lead Toxicity: A Comparison Between The United States And Iran, Ali Pourmand, Tareq Khedir Al-Tiae, Maryann Mazer-Amirshahi Oct 2012

Perspective On Lead Toxicity: A Comparison Between The United States And Iran, Ali Pourmand, Tareq Khedir Al-Tiae, Maryann Mazer-Amirshahi

Emergency Medicine Faculty Publications

Lead is a pervasive toxin that has been implicated in human poisonings throughout history. Exposure mitigation strategies in the United States and worldwide have led to a decline in symptomatic poisonings and population blood lead levels; however, lead remains a major health hazard. In this article, we review the history of lead toxicity, clinical manifestations ranging from subclinical and subtle features to life-threatening complications, and the subsequent public health interventions in the US. In addition, we explore common routes of lead exposure and the unique differences between the US and Iran. Although the US has made significant strides with regard …

Movement In Learning: Revitalizing The Classroom, Marcus Van Oct 2012

Movement In Learning: Revitalizing The Classroom, Marcus Van

MA TESOL Collection

Movement is a vital part of our every day lives, and it is also important for a healthy brain. The following paper examines the shift from movement based learning to a more restrictive rote format, which often has adverse effects on learning. This work discusses the ways in which teachers are under pressure to “teach to the test” instead of creating student-centered classrooms. Some of the side effects of a test-centered approach are low self-esteem (from not meeting strict academic requirements) and behavioral problems in students.

Adding more movement to lessons can provide variation and relief from the rote-only system. …

Mushroom Ganoderma Lucidum Prevents Colitis-Associated Carcinogenesis In Mice., Jiri Adamec Oct 2012

Mushroom Ganoderma Lucidum Prevents Colitis-Associated Carcinogenesis In Mice., Jiri Adamec

Bindley Publications

Background

Epidemiological studies suggest that mushroom intake is inversely correlated with gastric, gastrointestinal and breast cancers. We have recently demonstrated anticancer and anti-inflammatory activity of triterpene extract isolated from mushroom Ganoderma lucidum (GLT). The aim of the present study was to evaluate whether GLT prevents colitis-associated carcinogenesis in mice.

Methods/Principal Findings

Colon carcinogenesis was induced by the food-borne carcinogen (2-Amino-1-methyl-6-phenylimidazol[4,5-b]pyridine [PhIP]) and inflammation (dextran sodium sulfate [DSS]) in mice. Mice were treated with 0, 100, 300 and 500 mg GLT/kg of body weight 3 times per week for 4 months. Cell proliferation, expression of cyclin D1 and COX-2 …
