But the Lord came down to see. .. the tower which the sons of men had built. And the Lord said, ''Indeed the people are one and they all have one language, and this is what they begin to do;. .. Come, let Us go down and there confuse their language, that they may not understand one another's speech.''. .. Therefore its name is called Babel, because there the Lord confused the language of all th...

When not performing a task, we are usually engaged in a variety of thoughts, for instance about current problems, opportunities, our self-image, our relationships, about past experiences, and about plans for the future. Such mind wandering was found to occupy almost half of our time spent awake (Killingsworth and Gilbert, 2010). Mind wandering may have had the evolutionary advantage of better a...

This paper reports on the practical experiences collected during the implementation of constraint logic programming techniques via metaterms and extended uni-cation. During the actual implementation of extended uniication in a concrete PROLOG implementation some minor reenements to a speciication proposed earlier 3] had to be taken care of. Further, a convention related to the interpretation of...

BACKGROUND Patients who undergo carpal tunnel surgery sometimes complain of the restriction of the grip and pinch function, palmar tenderness, cosmetic problems, and scar formation at the site of the incision. AIMS We used a modified mini uni-skin incision with appropriate hand position for microscopic view in the surgical treatment of carpal tunnel syndrome to prevent cosmetic problems relat...

the present study is an attempt to analyze the characters in the novel blindness and its cinematic adapta- tion from intersemiotic viewpoint. to this end, the researchers provided a synthesized model, which is a combination of bernando (2012) and forster's (1927) classification of characters in order to analyze the two main characters from intersemiotic viewpoint. considering the differenc...

The Unifoliata (Uni) gene plays a major role in development of the compound leaf in pea, but its regulation is unknown. In this study, we examined the effects of plant hormones on the expression of Uni, PsPK2 (the gene for a pea homolog of Arabidopsis PID, a regulator of PIN1 targeting), PsPIN1 (the major gene for a putative auxin efflux carrier) and LE (a gibberellin biosynthesis gene, GA3ox),...

The degradation rates of kidney rRNA labeled before UNI or sham are unchanged 5 days after the operations (t one-and-a half, 88 h). Therefore, there is no contribution from pre-existing rRNA to the increased amount of rRNA in the stimulated kidney. After labeling with L-(methyl-3H)methionine, the kinetics of incorporation into rRNA precursors, 10-60 min and at the postoperative times of 4, 16, ...
