The recent rulings which grant University administrations the power to review and censor the appropriations of student governments on campuses in New York pose an intolerable threat to student autonomy. The procedures that have been established by the Executive Committee of the Board of Trustees allow University presidents to impose their own political beliefs and biases on the entire system of...

von Neumann [2], Codd [4], and others who attempt to achieve various computational goals using minimal (for example, fewest states) primitive modules. Input and output are all done from a single machine, which, while no theoretical limitation because of the lumping of finite-state machines, is a further dissimilarity between the author's arrays and practical parallel-processing computing scheme...

A retrospective review was conducted of all esthesioneuroblastoma cases treated at UCLA Medical Center from 1970 through 1990. Patients were staged according to the staging systems of Kadish, et al., Biller, et al., and a new staging system proposed by the authors. Of 26 patients treated, 74% were alive at 5 years and 60% were alive at 10 years. Combined treatment with surgery and radiation is ...

The birth of the intermittent injectate-based conventional pulmonary artery catheter (fondly nicknamed PAC) was proudly announced in the New England Journal of Medicine in 1970 by his parents HJ Swan and William Ganz. PAC grew rapidly, reaching manhood in 1986 where, in the US, he was shown to influence the management of over 40% of all ICU patients. His reputation, however, was tarnished in 19...

This paper presents an assessment of normalised flood losses in Europe for the period 1970–2006. Normalisation provides an estimate of the losses that would occur if the floods from the past take place under current societal conditions. Economic losses from floods are the result of both societal and climatological factors. Failing to adjust for time-variant socio-economic factors produces loss ...

merase (EC 2.7.7.6) have been demonstrated in eukaryotic cells (Roeder & Rutter, 1969; Jacob et al., 1970a; Kedinger et al., 1970; Mondal et al., 1970; Horgen & Griffin, 1971; Strain et al., 1971). RNA polymerase I (or A), which is associated with the nucleolus (Roeder & Rutter, 1970), is probably engaged in the transcription of nucleolar genes to form rRNA (Blatti et al., 1970; Tocchini-Valent...
