The author argues that the foregrounding of masochistic desire acts to complicate our understanding of the male gaze and female spectatorial pleasure; thus, these films present a serious challenge to ...

Example 1 Lets consider the integers from 1 to 10,000. The properties are defined as follows: E1 = property that an integer is divisible by 4 E2 = property that an integer is divisible by 5 E3 = property that an integer is divisible by 6 The probabilities of individual divisability are easily computed: Pr [E1] = probability the number is divisible by 4 = 1=4 Pr [E2] = probability the number is ...

OBJECTIVE To determine women's responses to cervical interrogation by fluorescent and reflective spectroscopy (FRS). MATERIALS AND METHODS A convenience sample of women scheduled for a colposcopic examination was interrogated by a cervical FRS system. Thereafter, women completed a 24-item questionnaire that assessed their responses to the spectroscopic test. Likert-scale responses were compar...

We evaluated a new EMIT#{174} II monoclonal amphetamine! methamphetamine assay for screening human urine by comparing itwith the EMIT#{174} d.a.u. monoclonal amphetamine/methamphetamine assay and a fluorescence polarization assay. The EMIT II assay has a cutoff of 1 mg!L d-methamphetamine. The EMIT II and EMIT d.a.u. assays were run on a BM/Hitachi 704 analyzer; for the fluorescence polarizatio...
