Phenotype/cell stem origin virgin CD5+ recirculating B-cell; the classical CLL phenotype is CD5+, CD23+, CD22-, CD79a-, FMC7-, sIg weak; trisomy 12 is more often observed in CLL with morphologically and immunologically atypical cells, displaying CD5 negativity or FMC7 positivity and strong surface immunoglobulin staining; trisomy 12 is present in proliferating cells and seems to be associated w...

Information about how agencies behaved in previous disasters could allow us to predict agency behavior and network structure in response to future events. In this paper, we review studies of two different disasters that occurred in the USA to provide insight into some of the common characteristics of disaster relief efforts. Specifically, the studies discussed explore how agencies involved in d...

This document describes our analysis of Internet outages during the October 2012 Hurricane Sandy. We assess network reliability by pinging a sample of networks and observing those that respond and then stop responding. While there are always occasional network outages, we see that the outage rate in U.S. networks doubled when the hurricane made landfall, then took about four days to recover. We...
