Being and Acting Rational
I usually prefer to deal with rational people. In the vernacular, being rational means being reasonable — that is, using reason when making decisions, taking actions, and achieving goals. Rational people tend to be more predictable and, therefore, understandable. Understanding a decision makes it easier for me to accept it. When I encounter and interact with agents on the Web, or when my own ag...
متن کاملDNA acting like RNA.
Over the last decade or so, secondary non-B-DNA structures such as G-quadruplexes and i-motifs have come into focus as biologically functioning moieties that are potentially involved in telomeric interactions and the control of gene expression. In the present short review, we first describe the structural and dynamic parallels with complex RNA structures, including the importance of sequence an...
متن کاملActing like Actin
The crawling movement of eukaryotic cells requires establishment of cell polarity, extension of the leading edge, attachment to the substratum, and retraction of the cell body. Each of these events depends on the dynamics of the actin cytoskeleton that are orchestrated by a host of signaling molecules and actin-binding proteins. Indeed, amoeboid cell motility involves so many biochemical compon...
متن کاملEffects of the long-acting human glucagon-like peptide-1 analog liraglutide on beta-cell function in normal living conditions.
L iraglutide is a long-acting glucagonlike peptide (GLP)-1 analog, which exerts its glucose-lowering action through multiple mechanisms (1). One important feature of liraglutide is its ability to enhance -cell function. The effects on -cell function have been demonstrated using standardized -cell function tests based on intravenous glucose administration (2–4). However, these studies may not re...
متن کاملThe Importance of Being Normal
Analysts have used a variety of statistical distributions to model losses due to operational risks [Embrechts, Cruz] or insurance claims [Hogg and Klugman]. In contrast, the normal distribution is the undisputed queen of capital market models. This paper examines an alternative family of distributions, the conic moment family, for application to capital market models. We answer the following qu...
