The American philosopher and literary critic Kenneth Burke was an "ideologist" (although he never called himself this, and added to that, he spent most of his life avoiding the Marxist term of ideology to describe human "systems" of ideas). Burke instead used the terms "orientation," "rationalization," "perspective." "critical perspective," "way...
I. Frozen bovine semen samples were measured by flow cytometry
(FCM) to determine if FCM analyses could be useful for sperm quality
evaluation and prediction of bull fertility. Fluorescent dyes
utilized were acridine orange, to measure sperm nuclear chromatin
heterogeneity by quantifying susceptibility of the chromatin to
denaturation, and rhodamine...
The N=88 isotones lie on the onset of nuclear deformation and have a complicated nuclear structure. To better understand this region, the nuclear levels of ¹⁵⁰Sm were studied in three different β decay experiments. De-populating γ-rays were measured using the 8π spectrometer, an array of 20 Compton suppressed Ge detectors....
In order to understand better the defect structure and dynamics associated
with lower valent dopants complexed with native defects in group IV oxides, In/Cd
perturbed angular correlation spectroscopy was performed in ceria and zirconia. Examining
the orientation symmetry axis of defects in ceria single crystals at low temperature
has allowed...
Addition of the methylcarbamate compounds p-chlorophenyl
N-methylcarbamate (PPG-124) and 1-naphthyl N-methylcarbamate
(carbaryl) to various herbicides has resulted in reduced rates of
degradation. Carbaryl affects the degradation of certain herbicides
in both plants and soils while PPG-124 has only been demonstrated
to affect degradation in soils. Both these materials are effective...
