Each case reported in the literature represents a challenge because their unique and different clinical scenarios. PRESENTATION OF CASE We present the management of a 33-year-old man with past hi...

Most civilian nonfatal gunshot injuries and murders involve handguns. Gunshot wounds are often classified as being due to high-velocity or low-velocity projectiles, e.g. rifle or handgun rounds.

Also, the same diameter (caliber) bullet can have different ...

The bullet evidence in the JFK assassination investigation was reexamined from metallurgical and statistical standpoints. The questioned specimens are comprised of soft lead, possibly from full-metal-jacketed Mannlicher-Carcano (MC), 6.5-mm ammunition. During lead refining, contaminant elements are removed to specified levels for a desired alloy or composition. Microsegregation of trace and min...

We define a new disordered asymmetric simple exclusion process (ASEP) with two species of particles, first-class particles labelled $\bullet$ and second-class ${\scriptstyle \Box}$, on two-dimensional toroidal lattice. The dynamics is controlled by $\bullet$, which only move horizontally, forward backward hopping rates $p_i$ $q_i$ respectively if the row $i$. motion \Box}$ depends relative posi...

This paper argues that Old Japanese (eighth century) had split alignment, with nominative-accusative alignment in main clauses and active alignment in nominalized clauses. The main arguments for active alignment in nominalized clause come from ga-marking of active subjects and the distribution oftwo verbal prefixes: /-for active predicates and safor inactive predicates (cf.
