We present a new nucleon distribution amplitude which amalgamates features of the Chernyak-Ogloblin-Zhitnitsky model with those of the Gari-Stefanis model. This ”heterotic” solution provides the possibility to have asymptotically a small ratio |GM |/G p M ≤ 0.1, while fulfilling most of the sum-rule requirements up to the third order. Using this nucleon distribution amplitude we calculate the e...

whom she (solely) confided, who insisted that this could be dangerous and referred to the episode of Casualty, which had been screened the previous week. It was only when the friend detailed the fate of the young girl in the television series, who had taken an overdose of paracetamol and progressed to liver failure, that our patient reluctantly agreed to go to hospital. This patient had not vie...

Recently, a large unregulated ”shadow banking”, based on counterparty relations, flourished and then suddenly collapsed. In the absence of regulation, its existence hinges on confidence about counterparties’ good behavior, and such confidence hinges on counterparties’ reputation concerns. Even when reputation allows for a cheaper alternative to traditional banking – by saving on regulatory cost...

With the increasing popularity of retired rescued Greyhounds, veterinarians are likely to evaluate dogs of this breed more frequently in their practice. It is estimated that approximately 120,000 Greyhounds lived in homes as pets, compared to 55,000 Greyhounds in racetracks. In the past few years, private Greyhound adoptions ranged from 15,000 to 18,000/year (Gary Guccione, National Greyhound A...
