This is a description of the programming language Forsythe, which is a descendant of Algol 60 intended to be as uniform and general as possible, while retaining the basic character of its progenitor. This document supercedes Report CMU{CS{88{159, \Preliminary Design of the Programming Language Forsythe" 1].

Novel spherical Pd@Cys-C(60) nanoparticles were synthesized using an in situ spontaneous reduction process without any other reducing agent. A nonenzymatic electrochemical biosensor was developed for the detection of glucose based on the spherical nanoparticles film.

The purpose of the study was to examine the contribution made by dimensions of session-impact factors (depth and smoothness), end-of-session factors of client's mood (positivity and emotional arousal), and several textual variables (use of positive and negative emotional words; helper's and client's writing lengths) to perceived helpfulness of emotional support conversations carried on by train...

OBJECTIVE To compare the thyroid hormonal responses to high-intensity interval exercise (IE) and steady-state endurance exercise (SEE) in highly trained males (n=15). DESIGN The IE session consisted of repeated periods of 90-seconds treadmill running at 100-110% VO(2max) and 90-seconds active recovery at 40% VO(2max) for 42-47 minutes. The SEE session was a 45-minute run at 60-65% VO(2max). T...

When I learnt to program, there were only two languages that were worth learning, Algol 60 and assembler. ‘Programming languages’ was once an easy course to teach, but as more languages were introduced it became harder and harder, and most books for undergraduates turned from textbooks into encyclopedias, trying to cover all known languages. Somewhere along the line the idea that it was worth t...

BACKGROUND The opioid remifentanil induces a decrease of vestibulo-ocular reflex function, which has been associated with nausea and vomiting when the subjects are moved. The study investigates in healthy female volunteers if immobility after remifentanil administration protects from nausea and vomiting. METHODS In volunteers, a standardized movement intervention (a manually applied head-trun...

The purpose of this study was to assess the reliability of a method for testing peak torque and work output of the knee extensor muscle during concentric and eccentric loading at three velocities of exercise (60 degrees, 120 degrees, and 180 degrees/sec). Fourteen healthy men (23-32 years of age) performed exercises of the quadriceps femoris muscles during concentric and eccentric loading, with...
