This study aimed to evaluate the performance, some carcass characteristics from feedlot lambs receiving sunflower crushed (SC) in the diet on partial replacement of soybean meal. The experimental design was randomized block with four levels of SC in the diet (0, 10, 20 and 30% of dry matter (DM)). There was a linear reduction of 0.02; 0.003; 0.003 and 0.17% for each percentage unit of added SC ...

First published December 24, 2014; doi:10.1152/jn.00674.2014.—Gaze is strongly attracted to visual objects that have been associated with rewards. Key to this function is a basal ganglia circuit originating from the caudat...

background: communication is very important in human societies in connection with the exchange of ideas and information between the instructor and student. the current research aimed to study factors that influence the interaction between the instructor and student from the perspective of shushtar medical sciences students. methods: this descriptive - cross sectional study was conducted in ahva...

In this lecture we will be looking into the secretary problem, and an interesting variation of the problem called the incentive comparable secretary problem. For both of these problems we will show how they can be solved though a correspondence between all possible strategies and the feasible solution space to a linear program. In both cases this will allow us to derive an algorithm and prove t...

In this paper we describe a method for developing a virtual instructor for pedestrian navigation based on real interactions between a human instructor and a human pedestrian. A virtual instructor is an agent capable of fulfilling the role of a human instructor, and its goal is to assist a pedestrian in the accomplishment of different tasks within the context of a real city. The instructor decid...

Two different videotaped interviews were staged with the same individual—a college instructor who spoke English with a European accent. In one of the interviews the instructor was warm and friendly, in the other, cold and distant. The subjects who saw the warm instructor rated his appearance, mannerisms, and accent as appealing, whereas those who saw the cold instructor rated these attributes a...

Micron-sized hexagonal single-crystalline Sc(3)N@C(80) rods have been successfully prepared for the first time by a liquid-liquid interfacial precipitation (LLIP) method with the first utilization of p-xylene as the solvent dissolving Sc(3)N@C(80). The effect of the concentration of the Sc(3)N@C(80) solution on the size and length of the Sc(3)N@C(80) rods has been studied, indicating that the l...

The goal of this research is to improve the linearity of integrated oscillator based on switched-capacitor band-pass filter with a low Q-factor in order to achieve a feasible integration. With the minimum addition control digital control circuit, high linearity can be achieved by suppressing 3rd harmonic which requires high Q of filter in traditional way. Description. The aim of this research i...
