The Wto Controversy: Exaggerated Fears and Unrealistic Hopes
The controversy has been abetted by several contending sides, each presuming that WTO has powers which in fact it doesn’t possess. WTO’s opponents, whose efforts were most conspicuously and disruptively evident in Seattle, consist of a diverse set of activists in both developed and less-developed countries. In the developed countries (the so-called “North”), the opponents include labor unions, ...
متن کامل"I wish things were different": expressing wishes in response to loss, futility, and unrealistic hopes.
Loss, Futility, and Unrealistic Hopes Physicians who care for patients encounter many powerful and painful emotions, including anger, sadness, fear, grief, loss, hopelessness, and blame. Many studies suggest that physicians should express empathy in response to emotion-laden patient statements to ensure that patients feel listened to and understood. These physician responses usually consist of ...
متن کاملMorphing voxels: the hype around structural imaging of headache patients.
Neuroimaging analysis using structural data has begun to provide insights into the pathophysiology of headache syndromes. Several independent studies have suggested a decrease in grey matter in pain-transmitting areas in migraine patients. Most of these data are discussed as damage or loss of brain grey matter, reinforcing the idea of migraine as a progressive disease. However, given what we kn...
متن کاملHighly extended image states around nanotubes.
We predict that freely suspended, linear molecular conductors or dielectrics, such as carbon nanotubes, can support electronic states that are localized far from the surface. These "tubular image states" are formed in extended potential wells resulting from the tug of war between the external electron's attraction to its image charge in the nanotube, and its repulsion from the tube due to its t...
متن کاملNanoelectronics: Nanotubes throw their heat around.
news & views atoms accumulating at lower temperatures. They find that the binding energy for xenon on a nanotube is 30% lower than for xenon on graphite, and explain this difference in terms of reduced van der Waals interactions (due to the surface of the nanotube being curved and containing only one layer of carbon atoms, whereas graphite is flat and contains several layers of carbon atoms). T...
