Abstract This study aimed to determine perceptual response differences and characterize desensitization to capsaicin over time across several oral cavity mucosae– the tongue, cheek, hard palate, and lip. For each region, subjects rated the intensity of capsaicin and a vehicle control over a 10-min period. Following a rest period, capsaicin was reapplied on each pretreated area and subjects indicated which side felt more irritated, then rated each side every 30 s over 3.5 min. Results from the initial task indicated significantly greater irritation on the tongue than hard palate, hard palate th

Abstract:
Music can and does exist without notation. In fact, its existence predates what we have come to accept as traditional music notation. Many musical traditions have thrived for centuries without any kind of formal codified symbol system to make musical replication easier. Music has existed, and often still exists, as an aurally transmitted art form. The same can’t be said for computers. Though the tongue-in-cheek Hart and Lieberman quote at the beginning of the chapter gets to the heart of the aural and intuitive nature of music’s origins, computer code relies on complex mathematics built, amazingly, on the seemingly simple 1s and 0s of binary arithmetic. Yet just as with music, there are tools and applications that your students can use to express themselves without even thinking about the underlying mathematics. For many of your students, the act of creating, whether it’s making music or developing web content, is accomplished intuitively, without formal training and knowledge of the “tools of the trade”: musical notation and computer code. Sherry Turkle asserts that “today’s children are growing up in the computer culture; all the rest of us are at best its naturalized citizens”. Following that line of reasoning a bit further, let’s assume for a moment that for your students music and computers are ingrained components of their culture. As is sometimes the case, however, the formal acquisition of these tools can often serve as a barrier to further understanding rather than the gateway this knowledge is meant to serve: impeding rather than enabling the creative process. Gardner feels that formal musical training can “be the beginning of the end of most children’s musical development” (p. 38). He believes “the challenge of musical education is to respect and build upon the young child’s own skills and understanding of music rather than impose a curriculum designed largely for adults” (p. 38). Bamberger’s research with college students suggests that students of any age possess musical instincts that, in the proper environment, can be developed and nurtured.

Abstract:
Justices have considerable latitude to pursue either their personal preferences or their personal visions of the law. The danger is that the Court gets so far out of line from the rest of the political system that we see fundamental institutional showdowns that threaten the independence of the judiciary, such as the Court-packing controversy in the 1930s. If the elected branches influence justices, however, they can keep the Court in check, thereby attenuating such risks. This chapter tests whether the Court systematically yields to the elected branches. In particular, it examines whether individual justices vote differently when the constraints imposed by the executive and legislative branches are likely to be at their strongest. It focuses on the two versions in the literature: one in which the Court is constrained only on statutory cases and the other in which the constraint extends to all cases, including constitutional cases.

Abstract:
Jean King, a St. Louis transplant from Osceola, Arkansas, and Memphis, Tennessee, in the fall of 1968 spotted a young Andre Smallwood eating a piece of bread he found on the snow-covered ground outside of their Darst public-housing development located just south of downtown. King soon learned that Smallwood’s mother had a monthly welfare check that amounted to less than the newly stipulated rent increase. The contrast between King and Smallwood’s mother could not have been more striking, although both resided in the same housing project. King and her husband, employed and married with one child, had the means to avoid routine visits from caseworkers, fluctuating welfare payments, and rent schedules that continually increased. But negotiating these realities was typical for most other black women, many of whom functioned as their family’s breadwinners. Public-housing tenants had already been meeting regularly to discuss the possibility of conducting a rent strike when King attended a tenants’ meeting at the nearby Blumeyer Housing Project in midtown St. Louis. After King shared the story of her encounter with Smallwood’s mother, tenants elected her president of the Citywide Rent Strike Committee. Like many “organic intellectuals” who emerged as leaders of grassroots social movements, King came out of a local movement that was already organized when the time to strike arrived. King, along with other black women community organizers, went on to spearhead one of the nation’s largest and earliest rent strikes in the postwar era. Women’s militant mass action garnered national attention and later influenced public policy reform. Because of the long and distinguished activism of black working-class women, a groundswell of grassroots organizing on a national scale, and federal action in support of antipoverty ...

Abstract:
Without assuming prior legal knowledge, books in the Directions series introduce and guide readers through key points of law and legal debate. Questions, discussion points, and thinking points help readers to engage fully with each subject and check their understanding as they progress and knowledge can be tested by self-test questions and exam questions at the chapter end. This chapter discusses the idea of human rights, as well as a range of political and constitutional issues to which they give rise. The general history of the international protection of human rights from which the UK system is derived is also introduced. The chapter furthermore presents examples of human rights abuses specific to the UK that are, to some extent, at the mild end of the full spectrum of human rights abuses found in other parts of Europe or in the rest of the world. The concept of human rights assumes that all reasonable human beings share the feeling that, in whatever they do, they need to accord proper respect to the dignity of all individual human beings. States and governments, in particular, must ensure that individual dignity is respected in their laws and practices.

Abstract:
Without assuming prior legal knowledge, books in the Directions series introduce and guide readers through key points of law and legal debate. Questions, diagrams, and exercises help readers to engage fully with each subject and check their understanding as they progress. The first step in establishing a negligence claim is to prove that the defendant owed the claimant a duty of care. The claimant must then show that the defendant has been negligent, that is, has breached that duty. To determine negligence, one must therefore establish how the defendant ought to have behaved in the circumstances (that is, standard of care) and whether the defendant’s behaviour fell below the desired standard (that is, breach). The basic standard of care in negligence is objectively assessed: that of the reasonable man. The objective standard can at times appear to work particularly harshly against a defendant, as exemplified by the case Nettleship v Weston (1971). This chapter examines breach of duty and the standard of care, the proof of negligence, and the application of the maxim res ipsa loquitur. It also discusses the Compensation Act 2006 which addresses the problem of the so-called compensation culture.

Abstract:
This paper explores the connection between supererogation and the integrity of ethical agents. It argues two theses: (1) there is a generally unrecognized but crucial social dimension to the moral integrity of individuals which challenges individual ideals and encourages supererogation; (2) the social dimension of integrity, however, must have limits that preserve the individuals's integrity. The concept of integrity is explored through recent works by Christine Korsgaard, Charles Taylor, and Susan Babbitt. A life of integrity is in part a life whereby one 'lives up to' one's own deeply held values. Yet, as one seeks to transcend the realm of the morally customary or the dutiful, one must check one's progress not only against one's own ideals but against the ideals and behavior of the ethical community. To answer affirmatively to one's own ideals is to hear the call of integrity both from within oneself and from without. However, by being free to hear, the freedom to close one's ears inevitably will arise. Only actions displaying such freedom can be actions of moral integrity. Since supererogatory actions are always left to an agent's discretion-that is, are fully optional-they show in paradigmatic fashion the integrity of moral agents. While an ethic of integrity and supererogation provides challenges to members of an ethical community by encouraging them continually to reevaluate their actions and character in reference to postulated ideals, it also leads us to be quite wary of judging individual's moral motives from the outside. A passage by Jonathan Kozol is cited that suggests our society routinely demands supererogatory action from its poorest members. This is illegitimate since they live in conditions that alienate rather than integrate them both with themselves and with the rest of the community.

Abstract:
In this chapter the explores the comedic devices and themes on display in The Far Side. First, he looks into Larson’s working methods as a comedian, charting his process from free associative brainstorming into strategies of refining and clarifying his jokes, and finally receiving critical feedback from editors. Second, using specific cartoons as examples, he analyzes the humor of Larson’s work in relation to basic theories of what makes us laugh: surprising incongruities, irreverent treatments of taboo subject matter, and comic depictions of violence or misfortune that evoke in the reader mingled emotions of sympathy and schadenfreude. He then explores a number of the comedic devices commonly used in The Far Side, considering ways that Larson modified or combined them in original ways: wordplay that literalized figurative speech or tested the logic of clichéd maxims; in medias res (in the middle of the action) vignettes that required readers to complete a narrative; cross-overs between animal and human worlds; gothic or morbid deconstructions of comforting social myths; and cheeky parodies of a variety of genres, mediums and discourses. Throughout the chapter the author periodically breaks away from close readings of Larson’s cartoons to paint in broad strokes the larger philosophical meanings circulating around The Far Side, suggesting ways that his comedy often became pointedly satiric, borrowing from the philosophical traditions of naturalism, absurdism, and the carnivalesque.

Abstract:
This task assesses the following clinical skills: … ● Patient safety ● Communication with patients and their relatives ● Information gathering ● Applied clinical knowledge … Rebecca Francis is a 34- year- old lady in her second pregnancy. She has had a normal vaginal delivery two years ago. Her pregnancy remained uneventful so far. At 36 weeks, her midwife detected that the baby was in breech presentation and has referred her to the antenatal clinic to discuss further management. You will then be given some information and asked questions by the examiner. You have 10 minutes for this task (+ 2mins initial reading time). Please read instruction to candidate and actor. After the consultation with the actor patient (or in the last two minutes), tell the candidate that Rebecca underwent an unsuccessful ECV and was booked for an elective caesarean at 39 weeks. You performed her caesarean and to your surprise, you delivered a cephalic baby by caesarean section. What should you have done to prevent this? What will you do next to prevent this kind of incidence? What will you explain to Rebecca? Record your overall clinical impression of the candidate for each domain (i.e. should this performance be pass, borderline, or a fail). You are Rebecca Francis, a 34- year- old mother of two- year- old Lucy. You had a straight forward pregnancy and delivery with Lucy. You are currently 36 weeks pregnant. You were seen by your midwife yesterday for a routine check and she found the baby to be in breech position. You were sent to the antenatal clinic and have had a scan confirming that the baby is in breech position. You were told that rest of the scan, including the baby’s measurements, fluid volume around the baby and the position of the placenta are normal. You are healthy. You do not smoke and have had no alcohol in pregnancy. Your pregnancy has progressed without any problems so far. The screening test for the baby showed low risk for Down’s syndrome. Temperament: You think you are mostly a calm, level- headed woman, but you do like to be organised and in control of things.

Abstract:
If you’ve used e-mail for any time at all, you’ve no doubt had your inbox deluged with messages pitching aphrodisiacs, mortgages, junk stocks, pornography, and substances that claim to help you lose weight in your sleep. But don’t despair. Such messages don’t have to be part of the Internet experience. You can avoid them, or certainly reduce the annoyance level, with a few simple measures. Some spammers harvest e-mail addresses from the Internet by using a “spider” (also known as a robot or crawler)—a computer program that creeps through the World Wide Web collecting information you’d prefer to keep private. So the better you are at hiding your address from faceless prowlers, the less spam you will receive. 1. If your Internet Service Provider gives you the choice, create a long, fairly complicated address preceding the @; don’t just use your first name: donquixote@example.com is better than don@example.com. Better still is donquixotedelamancha@example. com. It may be unwieldy, but your friends can always use a nickname—or just click on your address. Happily, longer addresses confuse spammers, who—without having exact user accounts in hand—use a “dictionary attack” to find them, testing the validity of every possible address from lists of common words and names: arline@example.com, barbara@example.com, and so forth. 2. Again, unless some online service makes it mandatory, don’t use your e-mail address as part of a login name or identity. However convenient that might make it when logging in to eBay, it’s equally convenient for spammers. 3. Use a second, public address for nonpersonal mail and for public posting. Create a free account with Hotmail, Yahoo, or Excite, or set up another screen name if you use either AOL or another Internet Service Provider that allows you to have multiple addresses. This keeps your main address private and exposes only your public address to spammers. Check the public account at least occasionally, in case something innocent has come in. Then massively delete the rest. It’s important to learn how your e-mail client (the program you use to send and receive e-mail) handles thorough deleting; in Outlook Express, for example, you have to delete an e-mail you don’t want from your inbox, delete it from the “Deleted” folder, and then compact folders before you are genuinely rid of it.

Abstract:
The isomorphous replacement method is a very old technique, used incidentally by Bragg to solve NaCl and KCl structures: it was later formulated in a more general way by Robertson (1935, 1936) and by Robertson and Woodward (1937). Its modern formulation is essentially due to Green et al. (1954) and to Bragg and Perutz (1954), who applied the method to haemoglobin. The technique has made possible the determination of the first three macromolecular structures, myoglobin, haemoglobin, and lysozyme. The approach may be summarized as follows. Suppose that the target structure is difficult to solve (e.g. it is a medium-sized structure, resistant to any phasing attempt, or it is a protein with bad data resolution) and we want to adopt isomorphous replacement techniques. Then we should perform the following steps: (a) Collect the diffraction data of the target structure; in the following we will suppose that it is the native protein. (b) Crystallize a new compound in which one or more heavy atoms are incorporated into the target structure. This new compound is called derivative. (c) Check if the operations in (b) heavily disturb the target structure. If not, the derivative is called isomorphous; then, only local (in the near vicinity of the binding site) structural modifications are induced by the heavy atom addition. Non-isomorphous derivative data are useless. (d) Use the two sets of diffraction data, say set {|FP|} of the target structure and set {|Fd|} of the isomorphous derivative, to solve the target structure. The above case is referred to as SIR (single isomorphous replacement). The reader should notice that redundant experimental information is available; indeed, two experimental sets of diffraction data relative to two isomorphous structures may be simultaneously used for solving the native protein. The redundancy of the experimental information allows crystal structure solution even if data resolution is far from being atomic (e.g. also when RES is about 3 or 4 Å, and even more in lucky cases). Imperfect isomorphism may hinder crystal structure solution. Then, more derivatives may be prepared; their diffraction data may be used in a combined way and may more easily lead the phasing process to success.

Abstract:
We extend ontology-based data access with integrity constraints over both the source and target schemas. The relevant reasoning problems in this setting are constraint satisfaction—to check whether a database satisfies the target constraints given the mappings and the ontology—and source-to-target (resp., target-to-source) constraint implication, which is to check whether a target constraint (resp., a source constraint) is satisfied by each database satisfying the source constraints (resp., the target constraints). We establish decidability and complexity bounds for all these problems in the c

Abstract This work investigates the modeling and verification of seawater reverse osmosis powered by renewable energy resources (SWRO-RES). The model includes one stage of RO membranes, high pressure (HP) pump, energy recovery devices (ERD), Wind turbines (WT), photovoltaic panels (PV), and electrical grid as a back-up for the cases when there is weak penetration of the RES. Antibugging and tracing for the computer model were used as part of the code verification to discover all coding errors and check whether the computer model conforms to the SWRO specifications. After that, the calculations

Abstract:
We are interested in an original numerical model based on a spectral approach and able to simulate the focalisation of waves in a wavetank. Such a technique involves fast FFT resolution, permitting accurate simulations of the target wave fields at low cost. This model is specifically designed to fit with experimental conditions, accounting for the physical wavetank geometry including the absorbing beach, sidewalls, and the snake-type wavemaker. The nonlinear equations are developed in perturbation series up to second order in wave steepness. An additional potential is employed to model the gen

Abstract:
There is a growing trend for transit agencies to evolve from wayside and cab-based signal systems to Communication Based Train Control (CBTC). With the complexity of CBTC, a failure of CBTC component could bring a transit system to a standstill. Implementing a secondary signal system can serve to minimize the consequences of a CBTC failure. It is paramount for a transit system to continue to operate, and axle counter technology can be a suitable candidate for use as a secondary signal system. Axle Counter technology has not been widely used in the U.S., but has been used for many years in Euro
