Ultraviolet Light Irradiation of Pm2 Superhelical Dna "when I Was Your Age, I Always Did It for Half-an-hour a Day. Why, Sometimes I've Believed as Many as Six Impossible Things before Breakfast..." from through the Looking-giass

Superhelical PM2 DNA can be photochemically modified by u.v. irradiation. The variation of S 2 0 with dose shows the following characteristics. There is a linear increase from 28 to 31S produced by a low dose of u.v. irradiation (4,000 ergs/mm). A plateau in S~Q occurs between 4,000 and 10,000 ergs/mm. The S 2 n then increases when'irradiation is increased to 56,000 ergs/mm. Thymine dimers are ...

Learning Finitely Additive Probabilities: an Impossibility Theorem

If (X,X ) is a measure space and F◦ ⊂ X is a field generated either by a countable class of sets or by a Vapnik-Červonenkis class, then if μ is purely finitely additive, there exist uncountably many μ′ agreeing with μ on F◦ and having |μ(A) − μ′(A)| = 1 for uncountably many A. If μ is also non-atomic, then for any r ∈ (0, 1], |μ(Ar)− μ(Ar)| = r for uncountably many Ar. Al-Najjar’s [1] unlearnab...

Conflicts in resuscitation: ethical dilemmas. Paper presented at a joint meeting of Ulster Medical Society and Ulster Neuropsychiatric Society 20 February 1997.

Much work in philosophy is concerned with logical reasoning, and much else with mysterious metaphysical things which might make you agree with Sir Isaiah Berlin, who once said "Philosophers are adults who persist in asking childish questions'".1 Unsurprisingly, there are those who think that asking a moral philosopher to deal with practical ethical questions is rather like asking a psychoanalys...
