Rapid economic growth has always entailed serious disruption: environmental, ideological, and political. As a result the relationship between economic growth and public health is complex since such disruption always threatens to spill over into deprivation, disease and death. The populations of most current high-income, high-life expectancy countries of 'the West' endured several decades of sev...

According to the logic of industrialism thesis during industrialization, the influence of, achieved characteristics on mate selection increased, while the influence of ascribed, characteristics decreased. Other processes that accompanied industrialization, such as, the development of mass communication, urbanization, increasing regional mobility, modern transport, and educational expansion, wer...

Methods: Previously constructed digital animations of craniofacial surgery were upgraded in Maya 10 (Autodesk, San Rapheal, CA) in preparation for web-based simulation. These animations were exported into an internet cloud-based, surgical simulator produced by BioDigital Systems Inc. (New York, NY). High-definition intra-operative video recordings of all procedures were edited in Adobe Premiere...

Many larvae and other plankton have complex and variable morphologies of unknown functional significance. We experimentally and theoretically investigated the functional consequences of the complex morphologies of larval sand dollars, Dendraster excentricus (Eschscholtz), for hydrodynamic interactions between swimming and turbulent water motion. Vertical shearing flows (horizontal gradients of ...

The uptake and release of chlamydiae in infections of highly specialized intestinal, absorptive epithelial cells of the ileum of newborn calves were studied. Infection occurred only through the brush border of the enterocytes. The chlamydial elementary bodies were adsorbed onto the microvilli, a process that induced pinocytosis of the elementary bodies and formation of endosomes containing one ...

Investigating the role of visual information in animal communication often involves the experimental presentation of live stimuli, mirrors, dummies, still images, video recordings or computer animations. In recent years computer animations have received increased attention, as this technology allows the presentation of moving stimuli that exhibit a fully standardized behaviour. However, whether...
