The Grand Forks complex, northern equivalent to the Kettle dome in the United States (e,g, Cheney, 1977; Cheney, 1980; Rhodes and Cheney, 1981), is one of many exposures of high-grade metamorphic rocks of North American miogeoclinal affinity in the southern Omineca Belt (Figure 1). These structural culminations bounded by Tertiary normal faults, often collectively referred to as the Shuswap com...

Diffuse changes in white matter resulting from cerebral microvascular disease contribute to cognitive impairment (Jokinen et al., 2011), declines in global functionality (Inzitari et al., 2009), and even death (Debette and Markus, 2010). Twenty years ago, estimations of the clinical incidence of cerebral microvascular disease approached 11 million per year in the US alone (Leary and Saver, 2003...

Aerosol size distributions are presented for a winter intensive study at the Fresno Supersite. The size distributions were consistent with and predictive for continuous PM2.5 measured by beta attenuation. They varied temporally with respect to source type and intensity, with the smallest mean diameters associated with high NOx concentrations during weekday morning rush hours. Conversely, small ...

may be because cases of gul dependence are usually not brought for consultation to the psychiatrists. It has been our experience that there is usually an increase in the symptomatic abuse of this product in psychotic disorders and episodes of depressive illness. This report is an effort to bring to the notice of researchers in the field of psychiatry and related fields, the endemic abuse of thi...

This study examines the role of observation during the formation of triads in female domestic hens. Results indicate that during hierarchy formation, a hen observing agonistic interactions and conflict settlement between its former dominant and a stranger uses this information when in turn confronted by the latter. Under a first condition (E, N=15 triads), bystanders witnessed their prior domin...

We examined the effect of prior victory or defeat in the same site as that of a subsequent encounter on the outcome of dyadic encounter of domestic hens by placing them in two situations: In the first set of dyads, two unacquainted hens having experienced prior victory were introduced in the site where one had experienced victory. In the second set, two unacquainted hens having experienced defe...
