The distinction between state and civil society is deeply rooted in both sociology and political theory (Barkey and Parikh 1991:525; Bobbio 1999:115; Habermas 1989:19). Even thinkers who argue that civil society and the state ‘interact’ often retain the basic conceptual opposition between the terms. Barkey and Parikh go so far as to characterize recent work on the state as “the state-society li...

This paper is concerned with cases of imperforate anus with recto-urethral fistula in males and some cases with high recto-vaginal fistula in females, all being cases of the type III described by Ladd and Gross (1934) or the high level imperforate anus described by Denis Browne. These cases still present difficult problems (Browne, 1955; Forshall, 1957; Brayton and Norris, 1958; Gross, 1959). D...

STOCK DEFINITION AND GEOGRAPHIC RANGE Six morphotypes within four subspecies of spinner dolphins have been described worldwide in tropical and warm-temperate waters (Perrin et al. 2009). The Gray’s (or pantropical) spinner dolphin (Stenella longirostris longirostris) is the most widely distributed subspecies and is found in the Atlantic, Indian, central and western Pacific Oceans (Perrin et al....

A 6-wk growth study was conducted comparing fingerling (mean weight = 24.7 g) USDA103 strain channel catfish Zctulunrspunctatus to Norris strain channel catfish in an effort to determine strain dmerences in growth and nutrient efficiency. Variability within strains also was assessed by randomly selecting four families from each strain for comparison. On average, USDA103 fish gained significantl...

In the Mongolian gerbil, vaginal opening occurs at 40 to 60 days of age (Nakai, Nimura, Tamura, Shimizu & Nishimura, 1960; Schwentker, 1963; Marston & Chang, 1965), whilst the age of sexual maturity has been given as 9 to 12 weeks (Schwentker, 1963; Marston & Chang, 1965). Recently, Norris & Adams (1972a) estimated that the mean age at first conception was 75 days under the most favourable cond...

Introduction Speech segmentation is a central issue of spoken language comprehension research (Cutler, 2001). And, recently, one important solution comes from the discovery of a mechanism operated in our lexical system, the Possible-Word Constraint (PWC). In their word-spotting experiments, Norris, McQueen, Cutler and Butterfield (1997) observed that listeners usually found it more difficult to...
