Three techniques of holographic Interferometry were developed to study the response of geological materials to propagating stress waves. Two of these techniques, stored-beam Interferometry and double-exposure Interferometry, were found effective when applied to studying smallamplitude wave propagation. The third technique, a form of time-average holographic Interferometry (which produces fringe...

n engl j med 372;9 nejm.org february 26, 2015 875 dent Barack Obama’s promise in his 2013 State of the Union address to enact gun-control legislation was stymied, and the composition of the current Congress augurs ill for such federal legislation.

BACKGROUND To investigate the correlation and level of agreement between end-tidal carbon dioxide (EtCO2) and blood gas pCO2 in non-intubated children with moderate to severe respiratory distress. METHODS Retrospective study of patients admitted to an intermediate care unit (InCU) at a tertiary care center over a 20-month period with moderate to severe respiratory distress secondary to asthma...

An effective way to understand the genomics of divergence in non-model organisms is to use the transcriptome to identify genes associated with divergence. We examine the transcriptome of the song sparrow (Melospiza melodia) and contrast it with the avian models zebra finch (Taeniopygia guttata) and chicken (Gallus gallus). We aimed to (i) obtain a functional annotation of a substantial portion ...

OBJECTIVES One way law enforcement officers support firearm safety is by promoting the use of gun locks. This investigation examined law enforcement officers' willingness to use gun locks on their own guns, as well as their opinions regarding gun locks in general. SETTING Law enforcement officers from an urban agency in the southern region of the United States. METHODS Free keyed cable gun ...

House sparrow Passer domesticus belongs to Passeriformes order and Passeridae Family. It has a worldwide distribution living in all continents and many of oceanic Islands. Some of the ecologists believe that this bird is a symbiotic species with human, hence recognizing and identified as a bird species depended on human environments. A lack of holes suitable for nest sites on modern or renovate...

Seafloor methane release due to the thermal dissociation of gas hydrates is pervasive across the continental margins of the Arctic Ocean. Furthermore, there is increasing awareness that shallow hydrate-related methane seeps have appeared due to enhanced warming of Arctic Ocean bottom water during the last century. Although it has been argued that a gas hydrate gun could trigger abrupt climate c...

OBJECTIVES (1) Determine the frequency of gun ownership, acquisition, and transfer; (2) assess gun storage practices; and (3) compare the views of firearm owning and non-owning adults regarding the protective value of keeping a gun in the home. SETTING AND METHODS Over three different time periods (1995, 1996, and 1999) stratified, random digit telephone surveys were conducted in a five count...
