The McKillop Library Waste Stream

The McKillop Library\u27s resources come at an environmental cost because more resources are being used than is realized. The focus is on the amount of carbon emissions and waste that is being produced by the library. Carbon emissions are the leading cause of climate change, and through recycling the library can lower the amount of carbon the library is producing. If recycling and re-using materials becames more of a common procedure in library, there is little doubt that it would be more environmentally friendly

Организационно-экономический механизм стимулирования труда как предпосылка достойного труда

У статті розглянуто питання необхідності формування організаційно-економічного механізму для кожної організації з метою досягнення впевненості людини в результатах своєї праці, розуміння свого місця у суспільстві, своєї гідності як члена суспільства. Організаційно-економічний механізм складаючись з однакових блоків буде специфічним для кожної організації згідно теорії економічних механізмів.The article discusses the need to develop organizational and economic mechanism for each organization to achieve confidence rights as a result of their work, understanding their place in society, their dignity as a member of society. Organizational-economic mechanism consisting of identical blocks will be specific to each organization according to the theory of economic mechanisms. The purpose of this paper is the need to create in each organization its organizational ekonomicheskogo mechanism that would significantly enhance the impact of each employee in the overall results. The novelty lies in the definition of the blocks forming the mechanism.В статье рассматривается вопрос о необходимости формирования организационно- экономического механизма для каждой организации с целью достижения уверенности человека в результатах своего труда, понимание своего места в обществе, своего достоинства как члена общества. Организационно-экономический механизм складываясь из одинаковых блоков будет специфическим для каждой организации согласно теории экономических механизмов

Alternative Splicing of Circadian Clock Genes Correlates With Temperature in Field-Grown Sugarcane

Alternative Splicing (AS) is a mechanism that generates different mature transcripts from precursor mRNAs (pre-mRNAs) of the same gene. In plants, a wide range of physiological and metabolic events are related to AS, as well as fast responses to changes in temperature. AS is present in around 60% of intron-containing genes in Arabidopsis, 46% in rice, and 38% in maize and it is widespread among the circadian clock genes. Little is known about how AS influences the circadian clock of C4 plants, like commercial sugarcane, a C4 crop with a complex hybrid genome. This work aims to test if the daily dynamics of AS forms of circadian clock genes are regulated by environmental factors, such as temperature, in the field. A systematic search for AS in five sugarcane clock genes, ScLHY, ScPRR37, ScPRR73, ScPRR95, and ScTOC1 using different organs of sugarcane sampled during winter, with 4 months old plants, and during summer, with 9 months old plants, revealed temperature- and organ-dependent expression of at least one alternatively spliced isoform in all genes. Expression of AS isoforms varied according to the season. Our results suggest that AS events in circadian clock genes are correlated with temperature.</p

Alternative splicing and DNA damage response in plants

Plants are exposed to a variety of abiotic and biotic stresses that may result in DNA damage. Endogenous processes - such as DNA replication, DNA recombination, respiration, or photosynthesis - are also a threat to DNA integrity. It is therefore essential to understand the strategies plants have developed for DNA damage detection, signaling, and repair. Alternative splicing (AS) is a key post-transcriptional process with a role in regulation of gene expression. Recent studies demonstrate that the majority of intron-containing genes in plants are alternatively spliced, highlighting the importance of AS in plant development and stress response. Not only does AS ensure a versatile proteome and influence the abundance and availability of proteins greatly, it has also emerged as an important player in the DNA damage response (DDR) in animals. Despite extensive studies of DDR carried out in plants, its regulation at the level of AS has not been comprehensively addressed. Here, we provide some insights into the interplay between AS and DDR in plants

Preventório Educandário Afrânio de Azevedo:: o isolamento de crianças estigmatizadas pela hanseníase em Goiás na década de 1940

No Brasil as principais medidas profiláticas contra a lepra/hanseníase a partir da década de 1920 foram sugeridas com a criação do Departamento Nacional de Saúde Pública. Em Goiás a partir da década de 1930, o isolamento e controle dos doentes de lepra/hanseníase, iniciou-se com as construções do leprosário Colônia Santa Marta, do preventório Educandário Afrânio de Azevedo - objeto desse artigo - e do dispensário na cidade de Anápolis. No preventório Educandário Afrânio de Azevedo, os internos recebiam a assistência e educação necessária até a maioridade. A pesquisa busca os discursos construídos sobre a necessidade do isolamento e na “prevenção” do contágio da lepra/hanseníase aos filhos nos preventórios. Esperamos resgatar as vozes desses “apartados” utilizados em trabalhos desde a mais tenra idade nas escolas de aprendizes

The Effect of Franco in the Basque Nation

This defense argues how the dictatorship of General Francisco Franco, combined with the nationalism of the Basques, resulted in conflict between the two groups. ETA, a terrorist organization, was formed and began to use violence against General Franco. Due to their continued nationalism, they continued on with their violence even after his death

Comparative Histology of Burned Mammals Using Light Microscopy: Examining Heat-Induced Changes in Femoral Samples of Deer, Pig and Cow.

This study focuses on the histological comparisons between deer, pig and cow. Five femoral specimens from each species were selected and burned at 600oC, 800oC and 1000oC. Burned and unburned control samples were thin-sectioned for light microscopic analysis. Visibility of histological structures in burned samples was reduced due to carbonization. Limitations in visible cortical areas resulted in biased sampling selections and smaller sample sizes. Quantitative analysis showed evidence of deer Haversian structures being the smallest and cow Haversian structures being the largest of the samples studied. Statistical analysis demonstrated changes in osteon dimensions of pig and cow samples at 800oC and 1000oC. The contraction of osteons in pig burned samples at these two temperatures led to pig osteon dimensions being similar to those of deer osteons at 800oC and 1000oC. This result suggests that species differentiation may be difficult to conduct on burned specimens above 600oC

Cultural and artistic factors in the design of museum cultural and creative product

The objective of this study is to examine the visual manifestation of customary art and cultural factors in the development of cultural and creative products for museums. The findings suggest that varied cultural and artistic factors encompass distinct visual language. When incorporated into innovative design of product color, material, and finishing (CMF) and modeling, these factors can demonstrate the unique cultural characteristics and dispositions of museums. Furthermore, comprehending the cultural context and aesthetic domain of cultural artifacts is crucial, and it is imperative to stimulate consumers' five sensory organs – sight, smell, taste, hearing, and touch – to heighten their cultural perception and emotional experience
