The authors have given us a lucid, concise, and accurate account of the TETRAD project, an account likely to clear much of the confusion over the philosophy of graph-based causal discovery methods. As one who has been active in the exploration and formulation of this philosophy, I am very pleased to see TETRAD arrive at this stage of development and now presented as a practical modeling tool fo...

O artigo se propõe a pensar Perder mãe: uma jornada pela rota atlântica da escravidão, de Saidiya Hartman, em diálogo com os seus ensaios “Tempo escravidão” e “Vênus dois atos”, como escrita história escravidão que concebe escravizados ancestrais à medida autora afirma descendente vive sobrevida escravidão. Situando-a na nova social no debate torno do caráternarrativo ficcional história, argume...

Silicone based oil is heated in the boiler of the diffusion pump and the vaporized oil rises in the central tower and streams out of directional flutes directed downward in the pump throat. This allows air molecules to dissolve in the gaseous oil (gas dissolved in gas). As the oil-air mixture cools (due to water cooling coils wrapped around the pump throat) the oil condenses and returns to liqu...

Stabilization efficiencies of spinel-based construction ceramics incorporating simulated nickel-laden waste sludge were evaluated and the leaching behavior of products investigated. To simulate the process of immobilization, nickel oxide was mixed alternatively with gamma-alumina, kaolinite, and hematite. These tailoring precursors are commonly used to prepare construction ceramics in the build...

DNA, the essential part of the life is making way in to new vaccine technology. Plasmid vectors from the bacteria have revolutionized the world of vaccine design by its new technology – DNA vaccines. Small portion of the nucleotides from the pathogen held under the control of promoter in a plasmid vector can be used as a vaccine. DNA vaccines alleviate the odds of the other vaccines by having g...

Location getLocation(int timeout)Description: Retrieves a Location with the constraints given by the Crite-ria associated with this class. If no result could be retrieved,a LocationException is thrown. If the location can't be deter-mined within the timeout period specified in the parameter,the method shall throw a LocationException. If the provider is temporarily unavailabl...

We have identified and analyzed two DNA regions responsible for stable maintenance of a plasmid in the genus Sphingomonas and Escherichia coli. A 37 bp fragment, upstream of the repA gene, is required for stable maintenance of the low-copy-number small plasmid pYAN-2 (4,687 bp) from Sphingobium yanoikuyae. It does not encode any significant protein sequence and has one direct repeat for possibl...

• "While the viscosity of blood lias been studied extensively (Copley, Stainsby, and Bayliss-), only a few studies have involved the use of a rotational viscometer. These included Brundage, Wells and Merril, and Wells et al.,-~ the latter applying a Brookfield cone plate viscometer. Neither study was carried out at rates of shear below 10 seer. The present author considered that the region belo...
