We prove tha t each real semisimple Lie algebra g has a Q-form go, such that every real representation of go can be realized over Q. This was previously proved by M. S. Raghunathan (and rediscovered by P. Eberlein) in the special case where g is compact.

T o achieve a professional level of competence, an occupational therapist must be able to translate a body of know ledge into a plan of action tha t faci] i ta tes change in a predicted direction. Clinical practice is grounded on a theoretical base. The aim of this presentation is to increase understanding of theory and the ways it can be linked to practice. To accomplish this task, theory is i...

Overproduction of interleukin-1 within the brain is associated with Alzheimer's disease and other neurological conditions. We report that peripheral administration of the acetylcholinesterase inhibitors tacrine, rivastigmine, neostigmine, or EN101 (an antisense oligonucleotide directed at acetylcholinesterase messenger RNA) to mice significantly attenuated the production of interleukin-1beta in...

Perceptual experiments with synthetic speech have shown that the category boundary on an acoustic (pa}-(ta) {/ba/-/da/} continuum (obtained by varying the onset frequencies of the second and third formants) is closer to the labial endpoint than the boundary on a (pha}_(tha) {/pa/-/ta/} continuum. Of several possible explanations, the most plausible seems to be that natural unaspirated and aspir...

Since the publicat ion of the second s tudy of this series 1 a much simpler and more compact agi tat ing appara tus has been devised. Several changes have also been made in the technique of the growth inhibi t ion tes t which have el iminated occasional irregularit ies in the outcome tha t had necessi tated discarding the results of the individual experiment .
