Abstract:
Multiple reports implicated the function of G protein-coupled receptor (GPR)-30 with nongenomic effects of estrogen, suggesting that GPR30 might be a G-protein coupled estrogen receptor. However, the findings are controversial and the expression pattern of GPR30 on a cell type level as well as its function in vivo remains unclear. Therefore, the objective of this study was to identify cell types that express Gpr30 in vivo by analyzing a mutant mouse model that harbors a lacZ reporter (Gpr30-lacZ) in the Gpr30 locus leading to a partial deletion of the Gpr30 coding sequence. Using this strategy

Abstract:
The role of ECG analysis in the diagnosis of cardio-vascular ailments has been significant in recent times. Although effective, the present computational algorithms lack accuracy, and no technique till date is capable of predicting the onset of a CVD condition with precision. In this chapter, the authors attempt to formulate a novel mapping technique based on feature extraction using fractional Fourier transform (FrFT) and map generation using self-organizing maps (SOM). FrFT feature extraction from the ECG data has been performed in a manner reminiscent of short time Fourier transform (STFT). Results show capability to generate maps from the isolated ECG wavetrains with better prediction capability to ascertain the onset of CVDs, which is not possible using conventional algorithms. Promising results provide the ability to visualize the data in a time evolution manner with the help of maps and histograms to predict onset of different CVD conditions and the ability to generate the required output with unsupervised training helping in greater generalization than previous reported techniques.

Abstract:
Adrenal incidentaloma is an adrenal mass that is discovered serendipitously with a radiological examination performed for indications unrelated to adrenal disease (1). The incidental discovery of an adrenal mass has become an increasingly common problem, because of the widespread use of ultrasonography, CT, and MRI in clinical practice (2, 3). These techniques have greatly improved their power of resolution over recent years, thereby increasing the possibility of detection of tiny adrenal lumps. Several factors hinder a clear characterization of the phenomenon ‘adrenal incidentaloma’, which may be considered as a byproduct of technology applied to medical practice. Adrenal incidentaloma is not a single pathological entity and the likelihood of any specific diagnosis depends both on the circumstances of discovery and the applied definition of incidentaloma. Unfortunately, published reports are inconsistent in applying inclusion and exclusion criteria for these various factors, making the results difficult to interpret. A further issue is the lack of specific clinical features of the patients carrying an adrenal incidentaloma.

Abstract:
Strabismus and diplopia have been reported with tube shunt implants in glaucoma surgery in several case series. Overall, the reports of strabismus (vertical and horizontal) as a potentially disabling surgical complication widely range from 5% to 100% depending on the type of tube shunt used. The challenge in determining the exact incidence of strabismus after tube shunt implantation arises from a lack of accurate preoperative strabismus evaluation and documentation in the published studies, as well as a higher incidence of reduced peripheral fusion and visual acuity in these selected groups of patients. The mechanism of postoperative strabismus is likely due to one of the following: 1) the size and the height of the device inserted and the resulting mass effect (bleb size); 2) the technique of surgical placement; 3) postoperative surgical adhesion, scar formation, and restriction; 4) probable muscle ischemia in conjunction with antifibrotic agents; 5) fat adherence syndrome; and 6) muscle-tendon stretching. Understanding the mechanism of strabismus is important for prevention and treatment of this condition. The mass effect following tube shunt implantation has been noted in multiple studies however, the true pathophysiology remains unclear. A proposed mechanism of postoperative ocular dysmotility suggests a direct mass effect on the extraocular muscles (EOM) from the implant or the encapsulated cystic bleb surrounding the device. Use of a large device or creation of a highly elevated bleb may shift an EOM pulley from its original anatomical pathway, thus creating a heterotopic pulley phenomenon. Therefore extreme caution and thorough preoperative counseling should be exercised in those patients with an already restricted peripheral sensory fusion because even a minor shift in extraocular muscle alignment may compromise the patient’s ability to maintain fusion and trigger the development of a secondary strabismus. Selection of the smallest device for an appropriate reduction of intraocular pressure (IOP) is also strongly advised in such patients. The newer generation of Baerveldt® implants with fenestrated plates (Abbot Medical Optics, Inc., Santa Ana, California) and flexible plate Ahmed™ valves (New World Medical, Inc., Rancho Cucamonga, California) may result in a lower bleb height, which will decrease the compressive effect on an individual EOM and its pulley system.

Abstract:
A review of small-scale fisheries of marine crustacean is here presented, indicating the main biological traits of the target species, levels and methods of capture, prices and markets, as well as fishing regulations. Edible barnacles are exploited in Spain, Japan, and Chile with low levels of capture (<500 t per year) and can be sold at high prices in the Iberian market. Stomatopods (mantis shrimps) are captured in the vicinity of the river mouths through trawl fisheries in Mediterranean Sea and in the western Indo-Pacific. Their landings fluctuate between 4,000 and 7,000 t per year, with levels of overexploitation reported for some Asian fisheries. A recent harvesting of sandhoppers (amphipods) has been reported from sandy beaches of Chile for aquarium food, with annual yields of 10–15 t dry mass. Other amphipod species (lysianassoids) are exploited in Canada mainly for fish food. These fisheries are characterized by a lack of biological and fishing parameters, management measurements, and regulations of the exploitation of their natural populations. However, in the cases of the European fisheries (stalked barnacles and stomatopods), some regulations have been implemented, such as closing periods, extraction quotas, and minimum legal sizes. Ecological studies are necessary to evaluate the possible impacts on biological interactions and food webs on the populations of the commercial extraction in these fisheries.

Abstract:
Israeli and US intelligence had ample field reports of Soviet as well as Egyptian and Syrian war preparations well before Yom Kippur, 6 October 1973, but these were disregarded in favor of an unchanged assessment that an Arab offensive was unlikely – among other reasons, for assumed lack of Soviet support. One cause was the priority assigned to the input of “Mossad spy” Ashraf Marwan, who did not relay a warning until after the mass evacuation of Soviet advisers’ dependents from Egypt and Syria on 4 October provided an unmistakable indication. It was, however, misinterpreted as signaling Soviet dissociation from the impending offensive. Marwan’s warning came too late for effective mobilization of Israeli reserves, and also included a spurious assurance that the USSR was not involved. In a continuing internecine Israeli controversy about Marwan’s role, this supports the claim that he acted as an efficient Egyptian double agent.

Abstract:
In today’s mass production era, the world is making things (products and systems) so quickly and systematically in huge volume. The demand for these products is very high and, at the same time, consumers are still in search for a need for making the production very personalized. Hence, the “one mold fits all” approach may not seem to be enough. The present approach is facing the lack of networking between the automation pyramid levels, that is, especially between enterprise resource planning (ERP) and manufacturing execution system (MES) layers and, in turn, communicating directly with the lower layers is not possible. This missing communication among the process equipment like machineries and field control systems like PLCs at the production shop floors implies that customization at the product layer for the consumer is still in progress in classical manufacturing. Mini-MES is a new concept being introduced here to solve the existing techniques reported in the literature and is followed by industry best practices. The novel mini-MES platform provides an avenue for the technology process level (the most bottom layer) to interplay interconnectivity and interoperability with its higher levels until the above pain points are addressed holistically. The chapter is going to focus mainly on the factory production of digital manufacturing and on describing the 3-Cs implementation plan, the enabling technology, and the achievable outcome ahead.

Abstract:
This undistinguished, productive, drought resistant, vigorous white grape, Airén, from the La Mancha region of Spain, was said to be the most widely planted grape in the world. In part the justification for this claim relies upon the observation that it is planted at a very low density! Except for its use in blending to make other wines “lighter,” it has not found wide accep¬tance. In part, it appears that its lack of popularity is the result of what is reported to be a mild, neutral flavor, and advertising has not pushed wines produced from it to the fore. Although it is now common to attempt to analyze the headspace (or ullage) in bottled wine (as well as the wine itself ) by chromatographic and mass spectrometric techniques it is less common to find that the grapes (skin, must, and seeds) are also subjected to such analysis. Nonetheless, the phenolic composition of V. vinifera var Airén was subjected to just such analysis during ripening from véraison to “technological” maturity (i.e., maturity which might actually be earlier than harvest, the latter being the decision of the viticulturist and vintner). The analysis of the ethyl ether extract of macerated skins, seeds, and accumulated solids (the pomace) was undertaken. Procyanidins and anthocyanins which would (the authors claim) interfere with subsequent analysis would not move into the ether phase. It was also found (using controls) that other highly polar materials (e.g., carboxylic acids) were only poorly extracted from the macerated skins and seeds. The isolated compounds and some information about their sources are provided in Figures 14.1 and 14.2. The analysis of the seeds, skin, and must did lead to the conclusion that “the maximum concentrations of benzoic and cinnamic acids and aldehydes and flavonol aglycones and glycosides at the end of the ripening period did not coincide with the minimum concentrations of the flavan-3-ols and hydroxycinnamic tartaric esters.” Depending upon what was sought, this information might thus affect decisions concerning the harvest date.

Abstract:
This chapter reviews media coverage of El Niño 97-98 and identifies some significant trends within that coverage. The coverage analyzed includes that provided by the major American television networks, the elite press, and significant regional newspapers. During the early months of the study period, news coverage of El Niño was focused on the science of the prediction and was framed as an issue of risk with appropriate uncertainty. However, as the predictions themselves were borne out in real-world phenomena, coverage of El Niño became event driven, and the phenomenon itself was treated as certainty. The risks of climate change attributed to El Niño outweighed the potential benefits in many media reports. Coverage of El Niño was extensive, particularly on the West Coast of the United States, where many individual weather events were connected with the larger phenomenon. The chapter then explores the possibility that the totality of the media coverage may have two lasting impacts. First, on the basis of existing scholarship on mass communication and risk communication, it is reasonable to suggest that the extensive news coverage of El Niño may have had some influence on public perception of climate change, particularly the salience of climate change in discrete regions of the nation. Second, the chapter suggests that the mediated reality of the 1997-1998 event will serve as a signal event for popular and political understanding of the consequences of global warming. Historically, journalism has been both hampered and helped by its definition of news. Previous studies of media coverage of a variety of “risky” events have noted that news accounts tend to be event focused, lack context, and treat science as a matter of dueling opinions, rather than a process of knowledge acquisition. These scholarly findings, which are long-standing, have had some impact on the professional community, particularly among science writers, who over the past two decades have become both better trained in science and more aware of the limitations of the concept of “news”—at least when it comes to reporting certain sorts of events. Media coverage of El Niño , in general, reflected these previously documented trends.

Abstract:
Assessment and development of pipeline projects in northern Canada, such as the proposed Mackenzie Valley gas pipeline (MGP), are hampered by a lack of baseline terrain geoscience information including drift thickness, sediment type, presence of massive ground ice, and the availability of granular aggregate resources. Clearly there is a need by Industry, Regulators, Aboriginal groups, and others, to understand the nature and character of near-surface earth materials, in order that pipeline proposals can be properly developed, evaluated, and when approved, proceed with the greatest degree of en

Abstract:
Characterizing the mixing effectiveness of systems or processes in granular applications is difficult due to ineffective sampling procedures and a lack of quantifiable measurement techniques. The mixing effectiveness of a screw pyrolyzer consisting of a binary mixture of 500–6350 μm red oak chips and 300–500 μm glass beads is evaluated using optical visualization and composition analysis techniques. The mass fraction of binary mixture samples is determined and the weighted sample variance from four outlet ports is used to evaluate the mixing effectiveness. The effect of dimensionless screw pit

Abstract:
Standard methods are in place for analysis of 17 legacy munitions compounds and one surrogate in water and soil matrices; however, several insensitive munition (IM) and degradation products are not part of these analytical procedures. This lack could lead to inaccurate determinations of munitions in environmental samples by either not measuring for IM compounds or using methods not designed for IM and other legacy compounds. This work seeks to continue expanding the list of target analytes currently included in the US Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) Method 8330B. This technical report pr
