ECTOPIA of the macula is a striking clinical condition but has been infrequently described, only fourteen cases having been reported: Kruger (1913), Triebenstein (1919), Beselin (1924, 1925), Bielschowsky (1930), Stein (1931), Friedman (1942), Cohen and Weisberg (1950), and Trevor-Roper (1952). Fuchs (1921) described a further eight specimens in which the diagnosis was made histologically after...

We investigate relativistic corrections of order $1/m^{2}$, where $m$ is the constituent quark mass, to heavy baryon decays by emitting one pseudoscalar meson in model. This work motivated shortcomings previous studies nonrelativistic model for Roper-like states such as $\Lambda_c(2765)$. find that due internal motion quarks are essential ingredients improving their decay properties widths sign...

An aspect of the Anglo-New Zealand artist Frances Hodgkins (1869­­–1947) which has been largely overlooked by art historians is challenges that she faced with her eyesight, particularly from 1930s onwards. These are documented here, using letters to family and friends. The article then applies findings in pioneering studies ophthalmology Patrick Trevor-Roper John S. Werner a selection Hodgkins’...

A l i n e drawing is o f ten represented by a graph w i t h the two p r i m i t i v e s , edges and ver t i c e s , corresponding to l i n e s and t h e i r i n t e r sec t ions . Both p r i m i t i v e s usua l l y have a d d i t i o n a l p roper t i es associated w i t h them. The problem is to generate a concise d e s c r i p t i o n such tha t i t is the most appropr ia te among a set of a...

Abs t rac t -P roper t i e s of nonlinear multiobjective problems implied by the Karush-Kuhn-Tucker necessary conditions are investigated. It is shown that trajectories of Lagrange multipliers corresponding to the components of the vector cost function are orthogonal to the corresponding trajectories of vector deviations in the balance space (to the balance set for Pareto solutions). ~) 2003 El...

Under the U.S. Supreme Court's 1989 decision in Stanford v. Kentucky, the Eighth Amendment's cruel and unusual punishments clause does not shield minors 16 or 17 years of age from the death penalty. Holding, astonishingly, that Stanford is no longer the law of the land, the Missouri Supreme Court recently reversed the death sentence of a 17-year-old murderer in Simmons v. Roper. The U.S. Suprem...

Face-selective neurons were discovered in the inferior temporal visual cortex by Perrett et al. (1982), in the amygdala by Sanghera, Rolls, and Roper-Hall (Sanghera et al. 1979; Rolls 2011) and Leonard et al. (1985), and in the orbitofrontal cortex by Rolls et al. (2006). These neurons respond 2–20 times more to the best face compared to the best nonface, and different brain regions provide the...
