Synthesis, structural and characterization data are provided for Pt(II) and Ir(III) complexes cyclometalated with 2-(corannulene)pyridine (corpy), (corpy)Pt(dpm) and (corpy)Ir(ppz)2 (dpm = dipivaloylmethanato, ppz = 1-phenylpyrazolyl). A third compound, (phenpy)Ir(ppz)2 (phenpy = 2-(5-phenanthryl)pyridyl), was also prepared to mimic the steric bulk of (corpy)Ir(ppz)2. X-ray analysis reveals bow...

A i2 inch square plastic bowl some 5 inches deep with sloping ramps has three strands of t inch copper tube fitted around the inside surface, the upper band about 1 inch below the rim, and each 1/16 inch apart A low voltage of 12 to 25 volts is applied to the tapes from a mains transformer or battery. Small animals are attracted up the ramps and into the bowl by a suitable bait; as they cross t...

We explore the effects of television advertising in the setting of the NFL’s Super Bowl telecast. The Super Bowl is the largest advertising event of the year and is well suited for measurement. The event has the potential to create significant increases in “brand capital” because ratings average over 40 percent of households and ads are a focal point of the broadcast. Furthermore, variation in ...

the fullerene structures of c20cage and bowl,c20h10 and their n-doped structures as c20cage nh,c20bowl nh, c20h10nh, c20h10n and their isomers are optimized using the mpw1pw91/6-31g level of the theory. magnetic shielding tensors of 14n and 13c atoms are calculated by the same level of the theory. results show that doping an n atom on fullerenes affects differently on the chemical shielding of ...

Central to embryonic development is the generation of molecular asymmetries across fields of undifferentiated cells. The Drosophila wing imaginal disc provides a powerful system with which to understand how such asymmetries are generated and how they contribute to formation of a complex structure. Early in development, the wing primordium is subdivided into a thin layer of peripodial epithelium...

background functional constipation (fc) and constipation-predominant irritable bowl syndrome (cibs)are two main subtypes of constipation that can be distinguished by the rome ii criteria. measuring colonic transit time (ctt) is an easy and cost effective way to evaluate constipation. this study was conducted to compare the ctt in patients with fc and cibs. materials and methods those patients w...

S ports participation during childhood, adolescence, and the teenage years is the focus of much attention by a variety of pediatric stakeholders. The physical, mental, and emotional development associated with athletic endeavors can play a great dividend in adulthood. Whether it is a team sport demanding the combined effort of various personalities and skills sets or the mental toughness requir...

Many English noun pairs suggest an almost limitless array of semantic interpretation. A fruit bowl might be described as a bowl for fruit, a bowl that contains fruit, a bowl for holding fruit, or even (perhaps in a modern sculpture class), a bowl made out of fruit. These interpretations vary in syntax, semantic denotation, plausibility, and level of semantic detail. For example, a headache pill...

The elucidation of pathways linking patterning to morphogenesis is a problem of great interest. We show here that, in addition to their roles in patterning and morphogenesis of the hindgut, the Drosophila genes drumstick (drm) and bowl are required in the foregut for spatially localized gene expression and the morphogenetic processes that form the proventriculus. drm and bowl belong to a family...
