BACKGROUND:

METHODS: Laboratory bioassays were carried out using the leaf-dipping method to examine the susceptibility of the laboratory and field strains to the tested insecticides. Activities of detoxification enzymes were determined in an attempt to identify resistance mechanisms.

RESULTS: The results showed that LC

CONCLUSION: Our findings, along with other tactics, are expected to help with the resistance management of

Since the early 2010s, synthetic opioids have significantly contributed to overall opioid-related overdose mortalities. For point of reference, of the 68,630 opioid-related deaths recorded in 2020, 56,516 involved synthetic opioids. During much of this period, fentanyl has been the most commonly used synthetic opioid. This time when fentanyl was the most popular opioid has been called the “third wave” of the opioid crisis, partly because it led to a sharp rise in deaths from overdoses. Other synthetic opioids, such as carfentanil, protonitazene, and isotonitazene, have also become more widely diverted for nonmedical used. Carfentanil is an even more potent fentanyl …

Role Of Ribosome Recycling Factor In Natural Termination And Translational Coupling As A Ribosome Releasing Factor, Yoshio Inokuchi, Fabio Quaglia, Akikazu Hirashima, Yoshihiro Yamamoto, Hideko Kaji, Akira Kaji

Department of Biochemistry and Molecular Biology Faculty Papers

The role of ribosome recycling factor (RRF) of E. coli was studied in vivo and in vitro. We used the translational coupling without the Shine-Dalgarno sequence of downstream ORF (d-ORF) as a model system of the RRF action in natural termination of protein synthesis. For the in vivo studies we used the translational coupling by the adjacent coat and lysis genes of RNA phage GA sharing the termination and initiation (UAAUG) and temperature sensitive RRF. The d-ORF translation was measured by the expression of the reporter lacZ gene connected to the 5'-terminal part of the lysis gene. The results showed …

Defamation 2.0, Cortelyou C. Kenney

Loyola of Los Angeles Law Review

There is a literal prohibition in the media bar that media lawyers cannot represent plaintiffs in suits for defamation. The stated principle behind this rule—a rule that can result in excommunication from the premier media law organization if it is violated—is that playing both sides of the defamation game is disloyal to traditional media actors because any chance of victory could inadvertently distort the law of defamation to increase the risk of frivolous suits against media outlets or other innocent third parties. But has the maxim finally gone too far?

Fueled by a new model where media profits are driven …

Fostering Responsible Innovation In Fintech, Willie Almack

Loyola of Los Angeles Law Review

The California Consumer Financial Protection Law (CCFPL) was passed in 2020. This piece of legislation rebranded the state’s financial services regulator as the “Department of Financial Protection and Innovation” (DFPI) and authorized the creation of an “Office of Financial Technology Innovation” (OFTI) within the DFPI. The CCFPL grants the DFPI expanded supervision over “fintech” providers—firms that leverage software-based technologies to deliver financial services to consumers via nontraditional conduits. Recognizing that fintech presents both potential benefits and risks for consumers, the California legislature took measures to ensure that the new regulatory scheme does not stifle innovation. Using the DFPI as a …

"Judicial Frustration": A Local Judge's Bold Attempt To Solve The Homelessness Crisis From The Bench, Gregory A. Alonge

Loyola of Los Angeles Law Review

In May 2021, in the case of LA Alliance v. Los Angeles, Judge David O. Carter of the Central District of California granted a sweeping order enjoining the city and county of Los Angeles to offer shelter to all unhoused persons living in Skid Row. The 109-page order identified structural racism and government indifference as the unconstitutional causes of homelessness in the region, and condemned California’s housing-first approach to addressing the issue. Although the Ninth Circuit swiftly vacated the preliminary injunction on procedural grounds, Judge Carter’s order begs the question: would universal shelter offers actually ameliorate the homelessness crisis? …

Maine Update: Mills Remains Popular Governor; Majorities Favor Voter Id & Family Leave Bills 2/24/2023, Unh Survey Center

All UNH Survey Center Polls

A majority of Mainers continue to approve of Janet Mills’ performance as Maine's Governor and she remains personally popular in the state. Majorities of Mainers support voter identification and family leave bills, as well as a bill which would allow abortion after 24 weeks if approved by a doctor. Most Mainers consider homelessness to be a serious problem in the state and the cost of living and housing are most often mentioned as the most important problems facing Maine.

Generative Artificial Intelligence And Copyright Law, Christopher T. Zirpoli

Copyright, Fair Use, Scholarly Communication, etc.

Recent innovations in artificial intelligence (AI) are raising new questions about how copyright law principles such as authorship, infringement, and fair use will apply to content created or used by AI. So-called “generative AI” computer programs—such as Open AI’s DALL-E 2 and ChatGPT programs, Stability AI’s Stable Diffusion program, and Midjourney’s self-titled program—are able to generate new images, texts, and other content (or “outputs”) in response to a user’s textual prompts (or “inputs”). These generative AI programs are “trained” to generate such works partly by exposing them to large quantities of existing works such as writings, photos, paintings, and other …

Increased Floodplain Inundation In The Amazon Since 1980, Ayan Fleischmann, Fabrice Papa, Stephen K. Hamilton, Alice Fassoni-Andrade, Sly Wongchuig, Jhan Carlo Espinoza, Rodrigo Paiva, John Melack, Etienne Fluet-Chouinard, Rafael M. Almeida

School of Earth, Environmental, & Marine Sciences Faculty Publications

Extensive floodplains throughout the Amazon basin support important ecosystem services and influence global water and carbon cycles. A recent change in the hydroclimatic regime of the region, with increased rainfall in the northern portions of the basin, has produced record-breaking high water levels on the Amazon River mainstem. Yet, the implications for the magnitude and duration of floodplain inundation across the basin remain unknown. Here we leverage state-of-the-art hydrological models, supported by in situ and remote sensing observations, to show that the maximum annual inundation extent along the central Amazon increased by 26% since 1980. We further reveal increased flood …

Gathered Together: The Impact Of In-Person Experiences In A Virtual Age, Consuela Knox

DMin Project Theses

This February 2024 Doctor of Ministry project thesis at Lipscomb University analyzes how following the height of a global health pandemic which required that individuals quarantine, in-person attendance at West Harpeth Church worship services has not reached the pre-pandemic level. The goal of this project was to enhance West Harpeth members’ theological understanding of the importance of in-person corporate gatherings as compared to virtual gatherings. The key research question was: Can awareness of the value of in-person corporate gatherings at West Harpeth, in comparison to virtual gatherings, be raised among members by them engaging in theological reflection? Related questions were: …

Overprotected But Unrepresented: An Argument For Mandatory Appointment Of Counsel And Against Automatic General Conservatorships In California, Maria De Los Angeles Reyes Olmedo

Loyola of Los Angeles Law Review

Conservatorships are restrictive arrangements that must be reserved for people with severe intellectual and/or developmental disabilities. However, California probate courts unnecessarily impose conservatorships and forego less restrictive alternatives for the sake of administrative convenience. While AB 1194 will ameliorate California’s paternalistic conservatorship system, this Note advocates for requiring courts to appoint counsel to all conservatees and proposed conservatees in every conservatorship proceeding, and to enact conservatorships only after proving less restrictive methods are insufficient. Humans—regardless of their dis/ability—deserve to age with dignity in a conservatee-centric system that does not violate their constitutional, federal, and state rights.
