Abstract:

Purpose – To summarize revised MSRB Rule G-30, which governs municipal bond dealer fair-pricing obligations. Design/methodology/approach – Discusses background of previous MSRB fair-pricing rules and interpretive guidance. Outlines the basic dealer obligations arising under revised MSRB Rule G-30. Discusses three key aspects of the new rule and recent rulemaking effort: the obligation of dealers to exercise “diligence” in assessing a municipal security’s market value and reasonableness of compensation, the distinction between fair security pricing and reasonable dealer compensation, and previous MSRB guidance that is superseded by the rule change. Also discusses similar rule changes related to fair-pricing, mark-ups, markdowns and commissions that have been proposed by FINRA that would apply to non-municipal securities if adopted. Findings – Revised MSRB Rule G-30 generally preserves existing municipal bond fair-pricing obligations while consolidating obligations that previously existed in multiple MSRB rules and interpretive guidance. Practical implications – The MSRB generally sought to preserve the substance of existing dealer fair-pricing obligations in revised MSRB Rule G-30 but dealers should evaluate their existing compliance frameworks in light of the recent revisions. The recent changes include deletion of prior MSRB Rule G-18 and superseding of certain interpretive guidance. Originality/value – Practical explanation by experienced financial services lawyer.

Abstract:

A. N. Tolstoy’s handwritten notebook of 1909 (Manuscript Department of the Institute of Russian Literature (Pushkinskij Dom), Russian Academy of Sciences) contains a draft autograph of "The Poem at Seventeen" (1910) which could be probed as an earlier version of the short story based on Tolstoy’s personal impressions. The draft autograph is published here, using the text from the handwritten notebook. The text includes the plot and the main characters, the young poet, Lyubochka and her father — the antique dealer. They were subsequently made more specifi c and acquired psychological traits.

Full text

Abstract:

In a posthumously published work of science fiction (The Dechronization of Sam Magruder, St. Martin's Press, 1996) the American paleontologist George G. Simpson (1902-1984) tells the story of Sam Magruder, a "chronologist" living in 2162 A.D, who was experimenting on the "quantum theory of time-motion" when he suffers a "time-slip" that puts him back in the Late Cretaceous of New Mexico. Helplessly lost in time and with no hope of returning to the present, Magruder ekes out a primitive existence for some years until a fatal accident befalls him. Before his death Magruder manages to chisel out his experience and philosophy of life on eight rock slabs that are recovered many millions of years later; and so his story becomes known and discussed by several Everyman characters. Simpson spins a reasonably engaging tale, but its main interest is the degree to which Magruder's philosophy of life may reflect Simpson's own feelings toward the end of his life. Always more comfortable in expressing his views in writing than in speaking, Simpson appears to use this work of science fiction to reveal his own, mostly melancholy, views about life's meaning and purpose, the importance of adapting to the here-and-now, and how historical contingency controls subsequent outcomes. Is Simpson speaking for himself when Magruder declares "My real purpose in engraving these slabs is a search for comprehension … I am exploring my own nature"?

Abstract:

A bilingual periodical published in 1898, titled Le Miroir de l’Art Musulman for its French audience and Mirʾāt-ı ṣanāyiʿ-i islāmiye for the Ottoman one, introduced its readership to the world of Islamic art in two idiosyncratic issues. A certain Hakky-Bey, the sole author behind these issues and a well-regarded antiques dealer in Paris, intended to introduce his vast collection to readers through meticulously arranged lithographs of his objects. In other words, he told the story of Islamic art through exemplary items from his collection. In parsing the contents of the journal, this article attempts to construct Hakky-Bey’s biography and reveal the sociopolitical and cultural routes, as well as the cosmopolitan networks, that shaped the unexpected trajectory of his career. As an independent Ottoman scholar, Hakky-Bey played a crucial role in the emerging field of Islamic art at the end of the nineteenth century, for which scholarship has given undue credit to European “Islamophiles.”

Abstract:

The story of Johnny Jenkins, rare book dealer, forger, gambler, and misterioso, has haunted me since my days in library school nearly a decade ago. I first encountered Jenkins through his publication Rare Books and Manuscript Thefts: A Security System for Librarians, Booksellers, and Collectors, which was printed in 1982 while Jenkins served as president of the Antiquarian Booksellers Association of America (ABAA). I was doing research related to the history of book theft in the United States and found Jenkins’s short text (only 27 pages) to be a helpful insight into how the ABAA viewed book theft and security. Pursuing Jenkins a bit further, I quickly came upon Calvin Trillin’s fascinating 1989 New Yorker article that chronicled Jenkins’s demise. The details of Jenkins’s secret life of forgeries, gambling, and arson were fascinating; the details of his death (shot in the back of the head, no weapon found, ruled a suicide?) were macabre and confounding. A few years later, while on break at a conference in Austin, TX, I walked into a used bookstore and found a copy of Jenkins’s Audubon and Other Capers (1976), which told the tale of his exploits in helping the FBI track down book thieves in the early 1970s. The completely contradictory life that Jenkins led, coupled with his untimely and odd death, stuck in my brain in the form of unanswered questions, unclear details, and an unresolved murder or suicide. While it was not up to me to put the pieces together and offer a clear picture of Johnny Jenkins’s life, career, and death, it had to be done by someone. That someone, it turns out, was another rare book dealer specializing in Texas and the West, Michael Vinson.

Abstract:

Purpose. The purpose of the article is to find a suitable approach for the reconstruction of the creative biography of F. M. Dostoevsky presented in the opinion journalism of the Siberian poet, journalist, and publicist G. A. Vyatkin.Results. This article is the first noticeable contribution proposed in studying opinion journalism of the Siberian poet and journalist G. A. Vyatkin about F. M. Dostoevsky. It considers Vyatkin’s works in the context of tragic events in Russian history of the 1910–1920 years. This perspective is especially meaningful and beneficial in the light of the fact that Dostoevsky was almost unknown to the soviet society until the 1970s. His works were not a part of a school or university educational program.Conclusion. The article concludes by arguing that Vyatkin was one of the first to tell about Dostoevsky’s exile and hard life in the prison camp, about his compassion and worry for people. He recalled many forgotten facts of Dostoevsky’s biography, found and published quotes from official documents and literary critics.

Abstract:

The article is devoted to B. Lavrenyov’s story The Forty-First [Sorok perviy]. The author sets out to identify the prototypes of the main character, the White officer V. Govorukha-Otrok. Among these, she names a famous critic from the late 1800s, Y. Govorukha-Otrok. All previous studies of this story were limited to its general aspects, with only the works of B. Geronimus, and to some extent, E. Semyonova, N. Titova, and G. Ratmanova, touching on the subject.The article begins by analyzing the legends around the character, including those inspired by the ‘Cannes echo’ phenomenon: the artistic response of several writers to G. Chukhray’s film adaptation of the story. Bakhova proceeds to point out a close connection of The Forty-First with Lavrenyov’s other works, e. g. Wormwood Herb [Polyn’-trava], noting the latter’s polemical stance towards the ideology of the 1920s. In the latter story, Lavrenyov chooses to pursue an unconventional parallel with the epoch of The Tale of Igor’s Campaign [Slovo o polku Igoreve]. Finally, she points out the close affinity of The Forty-First with Russian folk tales. Consequently, she concludes that Lavrenyov’s inner defiance of certain postulates of the Bolshevik revolution and its newly-established culture is hardwired in the story.

Full text

Abstract:

Many vital processes during C. elegans development, especially the establishment and maintenance of cell polarity in embryogenesis, are controlled by complex signaling pathways. G protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs), such as the four Frizzled family Wnt receptors, are linchpins in regulating and orchestrating several of these mechanisms. However, despite being GPCRs, which usually couple to G proteins, these receptors do not seem to activate classical heterotrimeric G protein-mediated signaling cascades. The view on signaling during embryogenesis is further complicated by the fact that heterotrimeric G proteins do play essential roles in cell polarity during embryogenesis, but their activity is modulated in a predominantly GPCR-independent manner via G protein regulators such as GEFs GAPs and GDIs. Further, the triggered downstream effectors are not typical. Only very few GPCR-dependent and G protein-mediated signaling pathways have been unambiguously defined in this context. This unusual and highly intriguing concept of separating GPCR function and G-protein activity, which is not restricted to embryogenesis in C. elegans but can also be found in other organisms, allows for essential and multi-faceted ways of regulating cellular communication and response. Although its relevance cannot be debated, its impact is still poorly discussed, and C. elegans is an ideal model to understand the underlying principles.

Finally, the demise of the company when new management attempted to be a traditional company clearly indicates the important role of the entrepreneur. Although the focus of the case is on the decision to re-locate a facility, this is an excellent case for courses in entrepreneurship, strategy, and operations.

Full text

Abstract:

This study proposes a new structural design of the first-story isolation system in reinforced concrete (RC) structures. Compared to the conditional buildings with independent columns, this new design integrates the independent columns with beams to increase the seismic capacity of the building by increasing the integrated stiffness of the coupled columns and the stability of the isolation system. The seismic responses of the proposed structure and the corresponding isolation effect were investigated by performing a series of numerical simulation and shaking table tests on a typical 7-story RC frame structure. The structure models were subjected to four earthquake waves with two PGAs (peak ground acceleration) of 0.30 g and 0.40 g for seismic analysis regarding the peak acceleration and inter-story displacement. Both simulation and testing results showed that the story acceleration and inter-story displacement of the superstructure in the isolated model decreased significantly. While the substructure below the isolation layer had a negligible decrease of acceleration. The connection of beams with concrete columns significantly increases the seismic capacity of the RC frame buildings compared to non-isolated frame buildings. The coupled beam-column connections could thus be potentially adopted in the practical first-story isolation system to avoid the requirements of large column stiffness and large column size.

Abstract:

Who (and what) was silent about the story told by heteronormative society? And how is the fragment of this story seen by “Others”? The article shows that the time of “queer before gay” includes (in Polish) not only well-known names such as: aunt or pedal, but also slang: ‘lala’ (doll), ‘przyjaciółki’ (friends), ‘siostry’ (sisters in Polish, girls in English), gays “from the outside of society”, as well as heterosexuals who got a ticket to the alternative world of the excluded. I tell this story from the perspective of the performative function of language (Althusser, Austin, Butler) and mechanisms of knowledge/power (Foucault). I focus on the activities of homosexual men encoded in their “hiding language” (sociopolitan gay). I show how the creation of the “homosexual” identity closed the community of aunts and pedals in a precisely defined form. And how camp and queering reality allowed them to function in this form. This article is thus another element of decoding the so-called language of concealment, so-called sociolect of Polish gays (aunts and pedals) and queering history of Poland (part of the queering history of Central and Eastern Europe).

Abstract:

The story of Galimjan Ibragimov “People” in different eras was evaluated by literary scholars from various points of view. From the middle of 1920s-1930s - vulgar-sociological treatments formed a basis to exclude the story from the Tatar literature history for many years. After the long-term period of concealment, in 1950s-1970s excessively naturalistic descriptions, not very sustained ideological and art orientation of the story, existence of passive humanity in it and misunderstanding of the principles of socialist realism became an object of criticism. Different views and estimates appear during the perestroika years, uncensored chaos in literature, art when all “forbidden” works began to be published, naturally causing a wide response of experts. Modern studies convince that the story of G. Ibragimov has not lost its relevance to this day, both from the standpoint of historical and literary, and from a purely aesthetic one. The comparative analysis of literary works of different eras about hunger made it possible to feel the influence of time on aesthetic interpretations: from vulgar sociologism, through the Procrustean bed of socialist realism and naturalism to the objective characteristics of pieces of art in the works of scholars of the late XX - early XXI centuries.

Full text

Abstract:

Vitamin C plays an essential role in the formation of collagen. A deficiency in vitamin C can lead to scurvy, manifested by blood vessel fragility, fatigue, and, rarely, death. Today, scurvy is rare in developed countries. Therefore, to diagnose scurvy requires a high index of suspicion. This will be illustrated by our patient of interest. A 66-year-old man presented to the emergency department (ED) with worsening bilateral leg swelling and bruising throughout his body. His past medical history was notable for a bowel resection with colostomy secondary to colorectal cancer, currently in remission. The bruising and swelling began two weeks prior without any inciting events. He denied taking blood thinners or non-steroidal-anti-inflammatory-drugs. He had no personal or family history of bleeding disorders. None of his previous surgeries were complicated by bleeding issues. Extremities showed large ecchymoses over left thigh and bilateral ankles, and hematoma over right patella. There were no perifollicular hemorrhages seen on skin examination. His hemoglobin was 13.5 g/dL and his platelet count was 145x109/L. A computed tomography angiography of his lower extremities revealed intramuscular hematomas in the calves, left adductor compartment and left sartorius. A venous ultrasound of bilateral lower extremities was unremarkable. He was advised to follow up with a hematologist outpatient. Ten days later, the patient reported worsening swelling and pain of his lower extremities and was advised to visit the ED (FIGURE 1A). His Hgb dropped to 10.8 g/dL. An extensive factor workup showed: factor VIII activity of 421.7% (ref range: 55-200), factor IX activity of 104% (ref range: 70-130), factor XI activity of 68% (ref range: 55-150), and von Willebrand factor activity of 355% (ref range: 55-200). Factor V, X and XIII were within normal limits. Other possible etiologies including vitamin K, HIV, hepatitis panel, antinuclear antibody and extractable nuclear antigen antibodies panel were normal. His activated partial thromboplastin time (aPTT) was prolonged at 44 seconds (ref range 25-37). The dilute Russel's viper venom time (dRVVT) was abnormal and his dRVVT/dRVVT-phospholipid ratio was greater than 1.3 or greater, indicative of a lupus anticoagulant. Beta-2 glycoprotein 1 antibodies and anticardiolipin antibodies were normal. Bleeding due to prothrombin (factor II) deficiency in the context of lupus anticoagulant has been reported (2). However, his factor II level was normal. Meanwhile, his Hgb fell to 6.9 g/dL, indicative of ongoing intramuscular bleeding. Upon further investigation by the consulting hematology team and registered dietitian, there was a concern for severe malnutrition, evident by substantial loss of subcutaneous fat and muscle mass. The patient revealed that he consumed six twelve-ounce cans of beers nightly. His diet was minimal in fruits and vegetables. One month prior to his admission, he had worsening fatigue, brittle nails and gum bleeding. His folate level was 2.0 ng/mL (ref range >3.9) and his albumin level dropped to 2.1 g/dL (ref range 3.5-5). His vitamin C level resulted < 0.1 mg/dL (ref range 0.4-2). He was started on three days of intravenous vitamin C, one gram per day. His hematoma and bruises dramatically improved (FIGURE 1B). As a result, a diagnosis of scurvy was made. On discharge, he was transitioned to oral vitamin C and advised to follow up with his hematologist outpatient. Scurvy is often viewed as a disease of the past. Yet, according to a national survey between 2003 and 2004, the prevalence of age-adjusted vitamin C deficiency is 7%. At risk patients include the elderly, institutionalized populations, alcoholics, and severe psychiatric illness leading to poor nutritional intake. Therefore, a dietary history of the patient should be obtained. Vitamin C contributes to the structure of blood vessels through its involvement in collagen synthesis. Characteristic signs and symptoms of scurvy feature fatigue, oral findings (spontaneous bleeding, gum retraction) and cutaneous abnormalities (petechiae and lesions). Rarely, it can lead to spontaneous intramuscular hematoma. The prognosis of scurvy is excellent, and the response to vitamin C is dramatic. This case illustrates the need to consider scurvy in diagnosing bleeding cases. A high index of suspicion remains integral in diagnosing scurvy to avoid expensive and lengthy workup.

Abstract:

In 1900, an English immigrant, Conrad Kelsall (1873–1936), settled on a block of virgin lowland rainforest on the Little Mulgrave River in tropical north Queensland. Four letters written to his family in Devon in 1903 tell of his butterfly collecting, both as a personal interest and a potential commercial activity. He supplied specimens to local natural history dealer, Alfred Bernie Bell, who sold them to major Australian butterfly collectors, G. A. Waterhouse and George Lyell, English natural history dealers Watkins and Doncaster, and famed lepidopterist Walter Rothschild. One letter also records Kelsall's contact with little-known Australian beetle collector, Horace Brown. The four letters provide a glimpse of the local enthusiasm for “butterflying” in north Queensland in the early twentieth century, as well as a record of how north Queensland specimens found their way to some of the major butterfly collectors of the day. Annotated transcripts of the letters are provided.

Abstract:

The fiction of J. G. Ballard is unusually concerned with spaces, both internal and external. Influenced by Surrealism and Freudian psychoanalysis, Ballard’s texts explore the thin divide between mind and body. This analysis of the story “The terminal beach” illustrates well some of the concepts present throughout his fiction.

Abstract:

The article entitled Edgar G. Ulmer — Roger Corman — Stuart Gordon. Movie adaptations of Edgar Allan Poe’s short story “The Black Cat” is a comparative analysis of three adaptations of a gothic short story. The attempt at finding inspirations from romantic poetics in the works of film directors, created in different decades and answering the question of how is it possible to transfer assumptions of romantic literature into movie language, was made in this text. In the movie from 1934, Edgar G. Ulmer connects gothic poetics with modernism aesthetics. He also adds historical context, referring to events in the First World War. On the other hand, taking classic literature became an opportunity for Roger Corman to play with convention. He expresses it in the adaption from 1962, in which terror gives space to humour. Stuart Gordon in turn, creates a post-modern variation based on a theme of The Black Cat, making Poe himself the main character of the movie from 2005. The important criterion of interpretation includes the motives of the Byronic hero, cat, madness and crime. Analysis of different ways to re-interpret the gothic short story leads to conclusions about filmmakers’ attitude to literary prototype. Also, the cultural context of individual adaptations was pointed out.

Abstract:

From 1950 until the 1980s, pineapple cultivation in Pakistan met with limited success because of a number of constraints. These included saline soils, brackish water, and a poor understanding of the requirements for nutrition, irrigation, growth and varietal adaptation, pest, disease, weather stress, overall crop management, and cultural practices. A new approach was attempted in late 1970 to the early 1980s, when a group of organizations in the Karachi metropolitan area developed a pot culture technique replacing local saline soils by river sand, and providing city city water instead of brackish underground irrigation. This pot culture system was limited by cost, unpredictable performance of survival, growth, and development, yield, and production of planting material. Thus, it could not be adapted on a commercial basis. These limitations were investigated in a 4-year study (1987–1990) at the Plant Introduction Centre, Karachi, of the Pakistan Agricultural Research Council, and technology was developed that led to the successful introduction, adaptation, and commercialization of pineapple production in Pakistan. Under the harsh arid conditions of Karachi, field trials were conducted with the pineapple var. Queen as an intercrop under a coconut canopy with trench and double-row system of planting. The best fertilizer management treatment consisted of the application of 4 kg gypsum and 5 kg cow manure on a per-plant basis, incorporated during land preparation and followed by the application of 56 g N and 60 g K per plant per annum in six split dosages. Fruit weighing 1000 g or more were harvested during 12 to 15 months following planting. Fruits were of high quality, with 13.6 % sugars, 1.5 % acidity, and TSS value of 4.7. Five suckers and slips were produced by each plant. The application of these soil amendments reduced soil pH from 8.5 to 6.9 and ECe by 80%. This regime enabled the use of slightly brackish underground water (ECe 2.7 mmhos) for irrigation. Weekly intervals of irrigation during summer and fortnightly intervals during winter were optimum. The crop was free of serious pest and disease. Mealy bugs and scale insects were controlled by Sumithion, rodents by Raccumin, while physical damage by squirrels and birds was avoided by covering the fruit with perforated paper bags. Through the development of this integrated production technology, Pakistan is now able to grow pineapples commercially.

Abstract:

High-content screening (HCS) is the measurement of complex cellular responses in a population of whole cells in parallel. It provides additional knowledge that can be critical when determining which targets to investigate and which lead compounds to pursue. In this article, we highlight the advantages of HCS analysis over traditional biochemical assays, using work on G-protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs) and kinases as examples.

Abstract:

The present paper is a literary stylistic analysis that highlights the imagery, the allegorical significance, linguistic manipulation or abuse of language in the novel Animal Farm by George Orwell. Orwell’s sophisticated exposure of political abuse of language is one of the most typical characteristics of Animal Farm and an indispensable part of his imagery. Seemingly a plain story of animals, inwardly this novel is an allegory that refers to power struggle, usurpation, intimidation, exploitation, hypocrisy, corruption, political racket and terror of the ruling classes in whatever form they may appear (human or animal). However serious the theme is, Orwell has made it fictitious and amusing through his vivid imagery and artful use of literary devices. With its clear, deceptively simple, but creatively honed prose style and expressive language, the novel is a source of great aesthetic and intellectual pleasure and political insight.

Full text

Abstract:

G-quadruplexes have long been perceived as rare and physiologically unimportant nucleic acid structures. However, several studies have revealed their importance in molecular processes, suggesting their possible role in replication and gene expression regulation. Pathways involving G-quadruplexes are intensively studied, especially in the context of human diseases, while their involvement in gene expression regulation in plants remains largely unexplored. Here, we conducted a bioinformatic study and performed a complex circular dichroism measurement to identify a stable G-quadruplex in the gene RPB1, coding for the RNA polymerase II large subunit. We found that this G-quadruplex-forming locus is highly evolutionarily conserved amongst plants sensu lato (Archaeplastida) that share a common ancestor more than one billion years old. Finally, we discussed a new hypothesis regarding G-quadruplexes interacting with UV light in plants to potentially form an additional layer of the regulatory network.

Abstract:

Background:: Glyphosate (G) is the most common weed-killer in the world. Every year tons and tons of G are applied on crop fields. G was first introduced in the mid 1970s and since then its usage has gradually increased to reach a peak since 2005. Now G usage is approximately 100 -fold what it was in 1970. Its impact on human health was considered benign at the beginning. But over the years, evidence of a pervasive negative effect of this pesticide on humans has been mounting. Nonetheless, G usage is allowed by government health control agencies (both in the United States and Europe), that rely upon the evidence produced by the G producer. However, the IARC (International Agency for Research on Cancer) in 2015 has stated that G is probable carcinogenic (class 2A), the second highest class in terms of risk. Objective:: In this review, we explore the effect of G on human health, focusing in particular on more recent knowledge. Results:: We have attempted to untangle the controversy about the dangers of the product for human beings in view of a very recent development, when the so -called Monsanto Papers, consisting of Emails and memos from Monsanto came to light, revealing a coordinated strategy to manipulate the debate about the safety of glyphosate to the company’s advantage. Conclusions:: The story of G is a recurrent one (see the tobacco story), that seriously jeopardizes the credibility of the scientific study in the modern era.
