Image of a waveguide superlattice under a high-resolution electron microscope, artificially colored to show the optical field confined in one waveguide. Electrical engineers at Rutgers University have created a method of integrating denser elements on optical chips. This technology may one day be used to make computer chips and data centers run faster and more cost-effective. As silicon integra...

False mildew is a serious disease of safflower crops in the Yaqui Valley, Mexico, and is caused by infection with a fungus belonging to the genus Ramularia. In the present study, a fungus isolated from leaf lesions was grown under different growth conditions in order to study its mycelial growth and spore production, determining that the solid medium of Septoria tritici at 18 °C of incubation a...

Carve-outs belong to the most disruptive events companies – especially IT departments – are subject to. Yet the impact of these events on the IT alignment of the involved business units is largely unknown. This paper utilizes an alignment model to analyze specific IT-related challenges of divesting a strategic business unit (SBU). Hereby it focuses on the functional alignment between business s...

Base tables supporting transaction time are ever-growing because all logical updates, including deletions, transform into insertions at the physical level. This contrasts snapshot tables where logical and physical deletion coincide. Logical deletion in TSQL2 was covered in 16. As there is a need for physical deletion capabilities in snapshot tables (and valid-time tables), there is also a need ...

Dysosma pleiantha is an endangered and endemic species in China. We have reported the flowering phenology, breeding system and pollinator activity of the species distributed in Tianmu Mountain (Zhejiang Province) nature reserves. Flowering occurred during the months of early April to late May, with the peak in the middle of the April, and was synchronous across all four subpopulations. The anth...

A considerable amount of research has been conducted on the effects of feeding DDGS to poultry. Corn DDGS is an excellent feed ingredient for use in layer, broiler, duck and turkey diets and contains approximately 85% of the energy value in corn, has moderate levels of protein and essential amino acids, and is high in available phosphorus. Layer and broiler diets can easily contain up to 10% DD...

sex once a week or more often, as compared with 56% of the older women.4 In addition, adolescents practicing serial monogamy may use oral contraceptives effectively during a relationship and then discontinue use when it ends; when a new relationship begins, they may be unprepared and use no method.5 Adolescents may also experience more frequent condom breakage or slippage and higher rates of mi...
