The term 'endorphin' (a combination of endogenous-morphine) is used to designate the entire group of peptides found in the brain and pituitary that mimic the biological properties of opiates. 'Endogenous opioid peptides', 'endogenous opioids' 'opioid peptide' and 'endopioids' can be considered as synonymous. Since the identification of stereospecific opiate receptors2J and the pentapeptides met...

We collect some famous and some less well know open problems from the theory of uncountable graphs focusing mainly on chromatic number. This short note serves as a reference list for a talk given at the University of East Anglia, Independence Results in Mathematics and Challenges in Iterated Forcing workshop in November, 2015. We highlight that there are several very well written recent surveys...

İslâm düşünce tarihinde “varlık” meselesine dair ortaya atılan görüşlerden birisi vahdet-i vücûd anlayışı olup bu hususta İbnü’l-Arabî’ye büyük önem atfedilmiştir. İbnü’l-Arabî’nin vücûda ifadelerinin manevî sarhoşluk halinde söylendiği kabul edilerek söz konusu ifadelere İslâm’ın esasları istikametinde tevil getirilmekle birlikte bazen onu tekfire kadar varan eleştiriler de yapılmıştır. Bu mak...

misogyny, Gilman exaggerates his anti-Semitism, arguing that Freud's theories on creativity were universalizations of traits Weininger had considered to be quintessentially Jewish. (Gilman does not deign to tell us why, if Weininger's anti-Semitism was indeed so significant, it was wholly ignored by such openly anti-Semitic readers as Karl Kraus, who celebrated Weininger merely as a misogynist....

he history of the treatment of aortic aneurysm is remarkable and worthy of study because it parallels most of the great advances in medicine over the past 2,000 years. In the 2nd century AD, Antyllus provided the first record of the cause and treatment of aneurysm. Osler described him as one of the most daring and accomplished surgeons in history, due to his early proximal and distal ligation o...

Foraging behaviour, stream habitat use and food habits of a population of the aquatic, Oregon garter snake were studied in the field during the spring and summer of 1987 and 1988. Continuous records of behaviour and habitat use were obtained for each snake. Adults foraged more actively and in a wider variety of stream habitats than juveniles or neonates. Adults also fed on a wider variety of pr...

Prior work has shown the strong presence of regional and spatial context in linkages between regime characteristics and involvement in civil and international con°ict, but no adequate statistical model has explicitly captured these forces. Models that adequately re°ect the interdependence of actors and actions in world politics are faced with di±cult problems of estimation since the classical l...
