Nationally, the causes and extent of fire on lands administrated by the United States Forest Service varied significantly from 1940 to 2000, with California experiencing the largest relative annual burned areas.The south-east and California experienced the largest relative area burned by fires from human ignitions. No significant differences were detected in the relative area burned by lightnin...

We performed deep optical observations of the area of the new supernova remnant G 69.4+1.2 in the emission lines of [O iii], Hα + [N ii] and [S ii]. The low ionization images reveal diffuse and filamentary emission in the central and south, south–west areas of our field. Estimates of the [S ii]/Hα ratio suggest that the detected emission in these areas originates from shock heated gas, while th...

The topic of this paper is the variability of pitch realisation of phrase-initial accent I. In our study we have observed a difference in variability for the varieties investigated. Central Swedish pitch patterns for phrase-initial accent I both to the East (Stockholm) and to the West (Gothenburg) display an apparent constancy, albeit with distinct patterns: East Central Swedish rising and West...

The Roma people, living throughout Europe and West Asia, are a diverse population linked by the Romani language and culture. Previous linguistic and genetic studies have suggested that the Roma migrated into Europe from South Asia about 1,000-1,500 years ago. Genetic inferences about Roma history have mostly focused on the Y chromosome and mitochondrial DNA. To explore what additional informati...

This study reviewed 113 elderly patients after embolectomy over a 10 year period, (median age 77, M:F 46:67). The 30 day mortality was 43%. This was associated with, age >80yrs., failed embolectomy, and aorto-iliac occlusions (P<0.05). Median long term survival was 29 months, (range 1-126), with most deaths in the first year, and a good survival after this. The most common subsequent vascular e...

The Southampton In Vitro Fertilisation Programme was established in 1986. Since that time the programme has maintained a clinical pregnancy rate of over 25 per oocyte retrieval. Embryos in excess of requirements for fresh transfer have been cryopreserved using controlled rate freezing and Propanediol as a cryoprotectant. Review of the first 75 frozen embryo transfers in natural or clomid induce...

Over a century ago, as a Lecturer in Medicine and Pathological Anatomy, Edward Long Fox had sound ideas about medical education in advance of his time. He took a personal interest in his pupils, guiding their studies, frequently asking them to his home, and he sometimes gave them standard works on medicine. He himself tried to keep up-to-date, even reading books and journals whilst in his carri...
