this paper is a structuralist study of some verses composed by attar in mantegh-at-tayr. the paper holds verses no. 616 to 680. the part from which the verses have been selected, is the introduction of the story of asefi. attar has employed the method of bara' at estehlaal (the core of the theme) in order to introduce the reader to the thematic core of the subject.

Receiving coastal waters and estuaries are among the most nutrient-enriched environments on earth, and one of the symptoms of the resulting eutrophication is the proliferation of opportunistic, fast-growing marine seaweeds. Here, we used a widespread macroalga often involved in blooms, Ulva spp., to investigate how supply of nitrogen (N) and phosphorus (P), the two main potential growth-limitin...

Farsçada “nasihat”, öğüt” manasına gelen “pend” sözcüğü, “nâme” ile birlikte; “Pend-nâme”, “öğüt kitabı, nasihat risalesi, öğüt kitapçığı” gibi anlamlar taşır. Pendnâme türü Attâr’ın (ö. 618/1221) Pend-nâme’sinin etkisiyle klasik Türk edebiyatında türden ziyade konusunda yazılan eserlerin özel adı olmuş ve bu konuda eserler Pend-nâme olarak isimlendirilmiştir. Bir tür ismiyle âdeta aynı bilinir...

Given H a real Hilbert space and Φ : H → R a smooth C function, we study the dynamical system (DIN) ẍ(t) + αẋ(t) + β∇Φ(x(t))ẋ(t) +∇Φ(x(t)) = 0 where α and β are positive parameters. The inertial term ẍ(t) acts as a singular perturbation and, in fact, regularization of the possibly degenerate classical Newton continuous dynamical system ∇Φ(x(t))ẋ(t)+∇Φ(x(t)) = 0. We show that (DIN) is a well-pos...

In aquatic ecosystems, carbon (C) availability strongly influences nitrogen (N) dynamics. One manifestation of this linkage is the importance in the dissolved organic matter (DOM) pool of dissolved organic nitrogen (DON), which can serve as both a C and an N source, yet our knowledge of how specific properties of DOM influence N dynamics are limited. To empirically examine the impact of labile ...

BACKGROUND Postsurgical treatment of ductal intraepithelial neoplasia (DIN) with standard doses of tamoxifen has not reached a consensus yet. Given positive results of low-dose tamoxifen on breast cancer biomarkers modulation, we analyzed a large cohort of DIN patients treated with low-dose tamoxifen or no treatment as per institutional guidelines. PATIENTS AND METHODS All consecutive women o...

Monthly time series of nutrient pools and transport in the Baltic Entrance were computed for the period 1974–1999 from a combination of hydrodynamic model results and observational data obtained in national monitoring programmes. Significant seasonal variations in both nutrient pools and transport were found. For example, inflowing dense nutrient-rich Skagerrak water causes net transport of dis...

Spaţiile virtuale 3D devin din ce în ce mai mult utilizate, de la jocuri până la aplicaţii industriale, medicale, militare sau ştiinţifice. Unele dintre cele mai importante aplicaţii ale acestora sunt în e-learning şi edutainment. Lucrarea de faţă prezintă elementele constitutive şi aspecte ale creării unui”muzeu virtual 3D”, pornind de la experienţa autorilor în dezvoltarea aplicaţiei software...

The concentration of dissolved inorganic nitrogen (DIN) in the porewaters of shallow-water tropical marine sediments can be as high as 50-100 µM, at sediment depths of shallow as 20 cm. These concentrations are at least two-orders of magnitude greater than the DIN concentration in the overlying water. High porewater concentrations, and the resulting concentration gradient, result in substantial...

We describe a cohort of 50 elderly subjects, age at least 70 years. We present gender-specific findings in T lymphocyte markers and soluble immune mediators. We show the correlation between cytomegalovirus infection status with CD56(dim) NK cell responses to a variety of stimuli and with CD56(bright)/CD56(dim) NK cell ratio. We also present the correlation of retinol binding protein (RBP)-4 pla...
