We point out that with improving our present knowledge of experimental neutrino physics it will be possible to locate nuclear powered vehicles like submarines, aircraft carriers and UFOs and detect nuclear testing. Since neutrinos cannot be shielded, it will not be possible to escape these detection. In these detectors it will also be possible to perform neutrino oscillation experiments during ...

Sexual size dimorphism varies substantially among populations and species but we have little understanding of the sources of selection generating this variation. We used path analysis to study how oviposition host affects selection on body size in a seed-feeding beetle (Stator limbatus) in which males contribute large ejaculates (nuptial gifts) to females. Females use nutrients in these ejacula...

For many years, the goal of integrating threat prevention services into the firewall has been pursued as a means of alleviating the need for additional devices for functions such as IPS, network antivirus, and more. The pursuit of integrating threat prevention functions into the firewall makes perfect sense – the firewall is the cornerstone of the security infrastructure. Current integration it...

UNLABELLED Paloverde is a new program designed to help visualize the phylogenetic structure of moderately large trees--trees on the scale of 100-2500 leaf nodes. The program embeds the user in an interactive virtual 3D world in which a large tree presented in various layouts can be manipulated through a mouse interface. The program implements radial 2D layouts, and true 3D spiral, conical and h...

J. Econ. Enlomol. 74: 30}-308 (1981) Larvae and adults of Phthorimaea operculella (Zeller) in potato foliage were effectively controlled by commercial applications of azinphosmethyl and a combination of methomyl and methamidophos, but eggs and pupae were not significantly affected. Azinphosmethyl, methomyl, and methamidophos provided adequate control of foliar larval populations, but larval par...

The effect of a-tocopherol on a phospholipid model membrane has been investigated by Electron Spin Resonance and Saturation Transfer ESR by using stearic acid and perdeuterodi-t-butyl nitroxide spin probes. It is observed that in the gel phase it induces a decrease of order and increase in fluidity; while in the liquid crystalline phase an indication of a slight increase in ordering and a clear...

background and objective: scorpion sting and snakebite are the important problems in some area such as iran that must be addressed. this study was to investigate temporal pattern of scorpion sting and snakebite incidence in patients referred to masjedsoleiman’s main hospital, during 24 months from 21 march 2008 to 20 march 2009. materials and methods: it was an analytical study to scrutiny of m...

A parsimony analysis was conducted on 319 rbcL sequences, comprising 242 from 194 genera of Leguminosae and 77 from other families. Results support earlier conclusions from rbcL and other molecular data that a monophyletic Leguminosae is part of a Fabales that includes Polygalaceae, Surianaceae, and the anomalous rosid genus Quillaja. Within legumes, results of previous analyses were also suppo...

Krüppel-like factor 5 (KLF5) regulates multiple biologic processes. Its function in tumorigenesis appears contradictory though, showing both tumor suppressor and tumor promoting activities. In this study, we examined whether and how Klf5 functions in prostatic tumorigenesis using mice with prostate-specific deletion of Klf5 and phosphatase and tensin homolog (Pten), both of which are frequently...
