Sir William Read, Royal Ophthalmologist during the reign of Queen Anne (1702-17I4), who incidentally was unable to read or write (Guthrie, 1958), gave a choice description of the dangers of perforation in deep scleritis: 'For it is most certain that this horny membrane . . . by how much deeper the blister is hidden in the membrane . . . in danger to make an ulceration by breaking through the me...

[1] Photomineralization of terrigenous dissolved organic matter (tDOM) in the Arctic Ocean is limited by persistent sea ice cover that reduces the amount of ultraviolet (UV) radiation reaching the underlying water column. UV-dependent processes are likely to accelerate as a result of shrinking sea ice extent and decreasing ice thickness caused by climatic warming over this region. In this study...

A general formulation for the disorientation angle distribution function is derived. The derivation employs the hyperspherical harmonic expansion for orientation distributions, and an explicit solution is presented for materials with cubic crystal symmetry and arbitrary textures. The result provides a significant generalization to the well-known Mackenzie distribution function (Mackenzie JK. Bi...

In the February issue of the Indian Medical Gazette, 1889, S. Coull Mackenzie, Police Surgeon of Calcutta, published an account of eight cases of saponification observed by him during his nine years of medico-legal work in that city. In the April issue of the same journal for 1897 Dr. George H. F. Nutall published a paper under the title " Has adipocere been observed in India?" in which he poin...
