Culture And Prosperity: The Truth About Markets—Why Some Nations Are Rich But Most Remain Poor (Book Review), Jonathan B. Wight
Economics Faculty Publications
John Kay’s latest book offers an absorbing romp through the history of economic thought in the 20th century. Kay attempts to explain the complex reality of a modern market system rather than resorting to simplistic theorizing about it. Gone are perfectly rational traders, perfectly competitive markets, incentive compatibilities, low transaction costs, informational symmetries, and no externalities. Kay highlights problems and problem solving as the ubiquitous and historical strata through which markets in the West evolved.
Scaling A Dataflow Testing Methodology To The Multiparadigm World Of Commercial Spreadsheets, Marc Randall Fisher Ii, Gregg Rothermel, Tyler Creelan, Margaret Burnett
Scaling A Dataflow Testing Methodology To The Multiparadigm World Of Commercial Spreadsheets, Marc Randall Fisher Ii, Gregg Rothermel, Tyler Creelan, Margaret Burnett
CSE Technical Reports
Spreadsheet languages are widely used by end users to perform a broad range of important tasks. Evidence shows, however, that spreadsheets often contain faults. Thus, in prior work we presented a dataflow testing methodology for use with spreadsheets, that provides feedback about the coverage of cells in spreadsheets via visual devices. Studies have shown that this methodology, which we call WYSIWYT (What You See Is What You Test), can be used cost-effectively by end-user programmers. To date, however, the methodology has been investigated across a limited set of spreadsheet language features. Commercial spreadsheet environments are multiparadigm languages, utilizing features often …

Location And Type Of Vertebral Compression Fractures In Aged Women With Acute Back Pain, Ching-Kai Lin, Ta-Sen Wei, Po-Jen Yang
Rehabilitation Practice and Science
In many cases acute back pain in aged women is caused by vertebral compression fractures. Although the indirect mortality rate among these patients is not as high as in those with hip fractures, the effect of acute back pain on patients’ daily lives and social activities should not be underestimated. This study was performed to understand the distribution of the location and type of vertebral compression fractures in this particular group of women and their relations to bone mineral density.This retrospective study consisted of medical record and X-ray examinations of 126 women patients who complained of acute back pain, were …

Thickening Of Finger Extensor Tendons In Hemiplegic Hands Of Stroke Patients, Nai-Hsin Meng, Sui-Foon Lo, Ting-I Han, Yi-Fang Hu, I-Shien Tseng, Mu-Jung Kao
Rehabilitation Practice and Science
Thickening of finger extensor tendons in hemiplegic hands of stroke patients has never been reported. We reported 11 patients with stroke who experienced gradual onset of a painless swelling at the dorsal aspect of the hemiplegic wrist. Soft tissue sonography revealed that the swellings were mainly composed of thickened finger extensor tendons. This thickening typically involved the tendons of the 4th dorsal extensor compartment between the proximal carpal and mid-metacarpal levels. The maximal thickness of these tendons could reach over three times that of the corresponding tendons of the contralateral hand. The synovial tissue surrounding the thickened tendon was also …

Pomp In Circumstance: Paradox, Oppositions, Metaphors And Philosophy In The Context Of Adult Basic Education, Matt Puma
Critical and Creative Thinking Capstones Collection
The ability to think fluidly with a variety of oppositional forms is essential to both critical and creative thinking. Loaded oppositions such as science vs. humanities, reason vs. emotion, male vs. female and good vs. evil become hindrances to thought when they are held too rigidly as dichotomies. Learning to work with the rich flow of oppositions involves patient exploration and an openness to the emergence of paradoxical truths rooted in the opposition. However, paradoxical thinking is not the only method for flexing fixed oppositions; there are many other types of "moves" that one can make when thinking creatively with …

Periplasmic Cleavage And Modification Of The 1-Phosphate Group Of Helicobacter Pylori Lipid A, An X. Tran, Mark J. Karbarz, Xiaoyuan Wang, Christian R.H. Raetz, Sara C. Mcgrath, Robert J. Cotter, M. Stephen Trent
ETSU Faculty Works
Pathogenic bacteria modify the lipid A portion of their lipopolysaccharide to help evade the host innate immune response. Modification of the negatively charged phosphate groups of lipid A aids in resistance to cationic antimicrobial peptides targeting the bacterial cell surface. The lipid A of Helicobacter pylori contains a phosphoethanolamine (pEtN) unit directly linked to the 1-position of the disaccharide backbone. This is in contrast to the pEtN units found in other pathogenic Gram-negative bacteria, which are attached to the lipid A phosphate group to form a pyrophosphate linkage. This study describes two enzymes involved in the periplasmic modification of the …

Emission of hydrogen chloride (HCl) from coal combustion is not controlled just like for example sulpfur dioxide emission. But HCl emission is also important, because chlorine content in some types of coal can reach the similar level to sulfur content. In the paper the measurement results of HCl emission to the air during combustion of three types of coal with law content of chlorine were presented. The researches were carried out for a steam pulverized coal boiler (max. boiler efficiency – 430 t/h) during three various loads (respectively 65, 80 and 95 % of maximum efficiency) without flue gas desulfurization. …
Evaluation Of Fluorapatite As A Waste-Form Material: First Quarter Report (2004-05), October 1 - December 31, 2004, Dennis W. Lindle, Oliver Hemmers
Evaluation Of Fluorapatite As A Waste-Form Material: First Quarter Report (2004-05), October 1 - December 31, 2004, Dennis W. Lindle, Oliver Hemmers
Separations Campaign (TRP)
Fluorapatite, fluorinated calcium phosphate, has been identified as a potential matrix for the entombment of the zirconium fluoride fission product waste stream from the proposed FLEX process. If the efficacy of fluorapatite-based waste-storage can be demonstrated, then new and potentially more-efficient options for handling and separating high-level wastes, based on fluoride-salt extraction, will become feasible. This proposal will develop a dual-path research project to develop a process to fabricate a synthetic fluorapatite waste form for the ZrF4, FP waste stream, characterize the waste form, examine its performance under environmental conditions, and correlate the behavior of the waste form …

Theoretical Modeling Of Protective Oxide Layer Growth In Non-Isothermal Lead-Alloys Coolant Systems, Yitung Chen
Theoretical Modeling Of Protective Oxide Layer Growth In Non-Isothermal Lead-Alloys Coolant Systems, Yitung Chen
Transmutation Sciences Materials (TRP)
The goal of the proposed research project is to provide basic understanding of the protective oxide layer behaviors and to develop oxide layer growth models of steels in non-isothermal lead-alloys (lead or lead-bismuth eutectic) coolant systems. It is widely recognized that the corrosiveness of the lead-alloys is a critical obstacle and challenge for which it can be safely used or applied in the nuclear coolant systems. Active oxygen control technique can promote the formation of the “self-healing” oxide films on the structural material surface, drastically reducing steel corrosion and coolant contamination. Many experiments of steels exposed to flowing lead-alloys have …

Trauma-Related Vertebral Artery Dissection With Delayed Onset Cerebellar Infarction: A Casereport, Tsung-Ying Li, Liang-Cheng Chen, Shuu-Hai Jiang, Shiou-Ping Lin, Kao-Chung Tsai
Rehabilitation Practice and Science
Cerebellar stroke is uncommon in young patients. We report the case of a 22-year-old man with a delayed cerebellar infarction secondary to vertebral artery dissection caused by trauma. While riding a bicycle as part of an extreme sport, his left clavicle struck a bicycle handle. Evaluation in the emergency room led to a diagnosis of left shoulder contusion without fracture of clavicle or cervical spine. Headache, severe vomiting, and weakness of the right-sided limbs developed three days later, and he presented to emergency staff again. Head injury was initially suspected, but the diagnosis was left vertebral artery dissection with delayed-onset …

Sustained Pelvic Traction With Prone Position In The Treatment Of Sciatica, Baii-Jia Yang, Si-Huei Lee, Yun-Sheng Chen
Rehabilitation Practice and Science
Sciatica due to herniated disc or degenerative disc disease is one of the most common problems in modern society. Management of the pain and disability with supine intermittent or sustained pelvic traction has long been used. However, some patients with severe back and referred leg pain cannot tolerate traction in a supine position. In this study, we applied sustained prone position pelvic traction to 14 patients with severe back and referred leg pain who were unable to tolerate supine position traction. Magnetic resonance imaging and electromyography studies revealed positive findings. Sustained prone position pelvic traction was set with one third …

Rehabilitation Practice and Science
Monthly or seasonal change of climate has been suggested to associate with the incidence and type of stroke, but this association is not conclusive owing to variation in study design and geographic area. The aim of this study was to investigate the short-term effect of temperature variation on type of cerebrovascular accident in first-time stroke patients.There were 1008 in-patients enrolled in this study, including 718 ischemic (infarct) stroke and 290 hemorrhagic stroke patients. The age was 68.9±11.0 years in the infarct and 62.9±13.6 years in the hemorrhagic group; 62%(181 cases) of the infarct group and 55%(395 cases) of the hemorrhagic …
