The promotion of out of school physical activity during physical education has received increasing attention as a tool for combating increasing sedentary time among youth. Qualitative work has shown that physical education teachers feel they lack the knowledge necessary to include physical activity promotion in their lessons and unprepared by...
Participation in regular physical activity is important for individuals with a mobility disability to decrease risk of chronic disease, improve quality of life, and maintain and improve functional ability. Consequently, there is a need for programs that can facilitate the adoption and maintenance of regular physical activity for adults with...
Growth models developed by Pennsylvania State University (Penn State) extension
services for Holstein and Jersey heifer height and weight were evaluated using OSU dairy
herd heifer data. The purpose of this study was to determine the ability of the models to
predict heights and weights of heifers in the OSU...
Primary Objective: To describe the processes involved with developing and implementing a
physical activity based health promotion program for people with a brain injury, summarize
previous health promotion research efforts, and provide an actual example of a program entitled
P.A.C.E, a “Physical Activity Centred Education” program.
Reasoning Behind literature Selection:...
Dietary cyclopropenoid fatty acids (CPFA) have long
been known to cause pronounced physiological disorders in
both farm and laboratory animals. Past work has shown
CPFA to be a powerful promoter of carcinogenesis in trout,
rats and mice. Sterculic and malvalic acids (CPFA's) are
found in seed lipids of plants from...
A new method for the preparation of the 2, 3, 3a,8a-tetrahydro-2-hydroxyfuro[2, 3-b] benzofuran, XXX, ring system has been developed. The synthesis envolved a substitution reaction of phenol, XXIV, with 1-bromo-2, 5-hexadiene, XXV, to give 2, 5-hexadien-l -yl phenyl ether, XXVII. The ether was rearranged via an ortho-Claisen rearrangement to 3-(o-hydroxyphenyl)-l,...
As the nonstop advancement of graphics hardware continues, new features are being added to the graphics pipeline on a regular basis. One of these advancements is called Pixel Synchronization, which allows a graphics programmer more power with certain types of data structures that may be accessed by multiple shader units...
Scaling the supply voltage into the sub/near-threshold domain is one of the most effective methods for improving the energy efficiency of next-generation electronic microsystems. Unfortunately, the relationship between low-voltage operation and radiation-induced soft error rate is not widely known, as little research has been previously performed and reported for soft-error...
