This technical report describes a simple and innovative surgical technique for supra-alar sidewall region constriction and supra-alar crease attenuation by cinching technique through intraoral approach.

The United Nations briefly considered the issue of extra-terrestrial intelligence at the 32nd session of the General Assembly in 1977. As a result, the Office of Outer Space Affairs was tasked to prepare a document on issues related to 'messages to extra-terrestrial civilizations', but this area has not been followed through in more recent times. This discussion paper describes the United Natio...

Introduction: The neural substrates of temporal processing are not still fully known. The majority of interval timing studies have dealt with this subject in the context of “Explicit timing” (computing the time intervals explicitly). The hypothesis “Implicit timing” (implicitly using temporal processing to improve function) has also proposed. This lesion study addressed explicit and implicit ti...

In the title compound, {[Mn(6)(C(8)H(4)O(4))(6)(C(4)H(9)NO)(8)]·H(2)O}(n), two of the Mn atoms are six-coordinated by six O atoms from three benzene-1,4-dicarboxyl-ate (bdc) ligands and two trans DMA (dimethyl-acetamide) mol-ecules, whereas two other Mn atoms, located on inversion centers, are both in octa-hedral coordinations by six bdc O atoms. The discrete trinuclear manganese secondary buil...

In the title salt of an S-substituted di-thio-carbazate, C16H16N3S2 (+)·Cl(-), the dihedral angles between the almost planar (r.m.s deviation = 0.005 Å) central CN2S2 residue and the terminal pyridinium and phenyl rings are 80.09 (11) and 3.82 (11)°, respectively, indicating the cation has an L-shape; the amine H and thione S atoms are syn. The conformation about each of the imine [1.376 (3) Å]...

In the title β-thio-carbonyl compound, C16H16O3S, the adjacent meth-oxy and carbonyl O atoms are synperiplanar [the O-C-C-O torsion angle is 19.8 (4)°] and are separated by 2.582 (3) Å. The dihedral angle between the rings is 40.11 (16)°, and the meth-oxy group is coplanar with the benzene ring to which it is connected [the C-C-O-C torsion angle is 179.1 (3)°]. The most notable feature of the c...

The United States of America and the European Community1 have dealt with competition law and intellectual property rights by methods that are historically contrasting and institutionally diverse. The historical contrast is the sequence in which the two legal subjects became creatures of central legislation. The U.S. Constitution of 1787 granted the federal Congress power “[t]o promote the Progr...

The asymmetric unit of the title salt, 2C(4)H(12)NO(+)·C(14)H(8)O(4)S(2) (2-), contains an eth-yl(2-hydr-oxy)aminium cation and half a 2,2'-disulfanediyldibenzoate anion, with the latter disposed about a twofold axis. The cation is a straight chain with the exception of the terminal hydr-oxy group [the N-C-C-O torsion angle is 66.5 (2)°]. A twisted conformation is found for the anion [the C-S-S...
