101 Bohs, Lynn A.Major clades in Solanum based on ndhF sequence dataAnalysis of sequence data from the chloropiast gene ndhF identifies at least 12 major well-supported clades within the genus Solanum. These are briefly described, given informal clade names, and compared with the groups recognized by previous Solanum workers. Non-molecular synapomorphies are propos...Solanum; ndhF2005
102 Chuaqui, Miguel BasimMareasIn Mareas (Tides), the dark timbre of the alto flute is immersed in a dark, watery, electronic sea. The bell sounds in the work evoke for me the bells of fishing boats as they toss around in choppy waters. These are sounds I first heard in the port of Valparaíso, Chile as a boy, their rhythm being ...Tides; Carlton Vickers; Chilean music; Bell sounds2005

110 Beckerle, Mary C.; Yoshigi, Masaaki; Hoffman, Laura M.; Yost, H. JosephMechanical force mobilizes zyxin from focal adhesions to actin filaments and regulates cytoskeletal reinforcementOrgans and tissues adapt to acute or chronic mechanical stress by remodeling their actin cytoskeletons. Cells that are stimulated by cyclic stretch or shear stress in vitro undergo bimodal cytoskeletal responses that include rapid reinforcement and gradual reorientation of actin stress fibers; howev...Zyxin; Actin2005
111 Liu, FengMechanical stability of ultrathin Ge/Si film on SiO2: the effect of Si/SiO2 interfaceWe perform two-dimensional linear elastic finite element analysis to investigate the mechanical stability of ultrathin Ge/Si film grown on or bonded to SiO2, using imperfect interface elements between Si and SiO2 to model Si/SiO2 interfacial slippage. We demonstrate that the overall composite film i...Ultrathin films; Si/SiO2 interface; Mechanical stability2005
112 Baehr, WolfgangMetabolism and transactivation activity of 13,14-dihydroretinoic acidThe metabolism of vitamin A is a highly regulated process that generates essential mediators involved in the development, cellular differentiation, immunity, and vision of vertebrates. Retinol saturase converts all-trans-retinol to all-trans-13,14-dihydroretinol (Moise, A. R., Kuksa, V., Imanishi, Y...Chromatography, High Pressure Liquid; Electrophoresis, Polyacrylamide Gel; Retinoid X Receptors2005
113 Balasubramonian, RajeevMicroarchitectural wire management for performance and power in partitioned architecturesFuture high-performance billion-transistor processors are likely to employ partitioned architectures to achieve high clock speeds, high parallelism, low design complexity, and low power. In such architectures, inter-partition communication over global wires has a significant impact on overall proc...Microarchitecture; Partitioned architectures; Heterogeneous interconnects; Cache access2005
114 Furse, Cynthia M.Miniaturized biocompatible microstrip antenna using genetic algorithmBiocompatible antennas are an area of recent research that can facilitate remote communication with medical implants. This paper shows several possible designs of a "waffle-type" antenna created using genetic algorithms (GAs) that are of a size potentially suitable for cardiac pacemakers in 402-405 ...2005
115 Silverman, Randall H.Misperceptions about white glovesAwkward mobility. Loss of feeling. Impaired sensations. These are not descriptions of a trip to the dentist, but rather a visit to the reading rooms of many special collections where the experience of handling valuable rare books and documents is synonymous with donning white cotton gloves. This pap...2005
116 Silverman, Randall H.Misperceptions about White GlovesCollection care and handling policies that mandate curators and/or patrons to wear gloves when handling archival and library materials need reexamining. Contrary to popular opinion, gloves provide no guarantee of protection from perspiration and dirt. Further, they increase the likelihood of physica...Library materials, Conservation and restoration2005
117 Wolfinger, Nicholas H.Mixed blessings of no-fault divorceBetween the mid-1960s and 1979 the crude divorce rate in the United States more than doubled.1 Although divorce had increased at a steady rate for more than the previous 100 years, the mid-1960s marked the beginning of an unprecedented boom.2 Despite modest declines over the last twenty years,3 th...Divorce reform2005
118 Stevens, KennethModeling and verifying circuits using generalized relative timingWe propose a novel technique for modeling and verifying timed circuits based on the notion of generalized relative timing. Generalized relative timing constraints can express not just a relative ordering between events, but also some forms of metric timing constraints. Circuits modeled using gener...2005
119 Eddings, Eric G.; Sarofim, Adel F.Modeling benzene and naphthalene formation in a premixed propylene flameThe Utah Surrogate Mechanism was used to model a fuel-rich, non-sooting premixed laminar flame of propylene at 5000 Pa with an equivalence ratio of 2.32. The simulation results were found to be satisfactory in comparison with the experimental data. For example, the measured concentration profiles of...Utah Surrogate Mechanism; Propylene; Combustion modeling; Benzene formation; Naphthalene formation2005
120 Rogers, Alan R.; Jorde, Lynn B.Modeling the amplification dynamics of human Alu retrotransposonsRetrotransposons have had a considerable impact on the overall architecture of the human genome. Currently, there are three lineages of retrotransposons (Alu, L1, and SVA) that are believed to be actively replicating in humans. While estimates of their copy number, sequence diversity, and levels of ...Retrotransposons; Amplification dynamics; Mutation; Human-chimpanzee divergence2005
121 Kestle, John R. W.Multicenter prospective cohort study of the Strata valve for the management of hydrocephalus in pediatric patientsObject. Previous reports suggest that adjustable valves may improve the survival of cerebrospinal fluid shunts or relieve shunt-related symptoms. To evaluate these claims, the authors conducted a prospective multicenter cohort study of children who underwent placement of Strata valves. Methods. Pat...Ventriculoperitoneal shunt; Strata valve; Adjustable valves; Pediatric neurosurgery2005

123 Miller, Jan D.New developments in mixing, flocculation and flotation for industrial wastewater pretreatment and municipal wastewater treatmentSolid/liquid separations are commonly the first step in any wastewater treatment. Such technologies are mature and new developments are rare. However, in the last decade some significant improvements in separation techniques for industrial waste water pretreatment have been implemented. Advances in ...Wastewater treatment; Flocculation; Flotation; Industrial wastewater pretreatment; Sludge thickening; Mixing2005
