This study examines the incidence and impact of occupational licensing on immigrants using two sources data: Current Population Survey Income Program Participation. We find that are significantly less likely to have a license than similar natives this gap is largest for men, workers in highest education level, nonnaturalized immigrants. The rate increases with years since migration shows large ...

BACKGROUND English alcohol policy is implemented at local government level, leading to variations in how it is put into practice. We evaluated whether differences in the presence or absence of cumulative impact zones and the 'intensity' of licensing enforcement--both aimed at regulating the availability of alcohol and modifying the drinking environment--were associated with harm as measured by ...

A licensing service allows software producers to control the access and use of their products, and enables the customers to pay only for the software functionalities they use. In this paper we present a CORBA licensing service that is transparent to the end-users and that can easily evolve to adapt to changing licensing policies. Design and implementation issues are discussed and possible impro...

In this paper the authors examine statutes that regulate, license, and enforce investigative functions in each US state. After identification and review of Private Investigator licensing requirements, the authors find that very few state statutes explicitly differentiate between Private Investigators and Digital Examiners. After contacting all state agencies the authors present a distinct group...

Replication licensing factor (RLF) is an essential initiation factor that can prevent re-replication of DNA in a single cell cycle [1] [2]. It is required for the initiation of DNA replication, binds to chromatin early in the cell cycle, is removed from chromatin as DNA replicates and is unable to re-bind replicated chromatin until the following mitosis. Chromatography of RLF from Xenopus extra...

We have analyzed the expression of the murine P1 gene, the mammalian homologue of the yeast MCM3 protein, during the mitotic cell cycle. The MCM3 protein has previously been shown to be of importance for initiation of DNA replication in Saccharomyces cerevisiae. We found that the murine P1 protein was present in the nuclei of mammalian cells throughout interphase of the cell cycle. This is in c...
