Traditional libraries will evolve to digital libraries which are clearly superior at: Dissemination, sharing, linking, storing, and information variety. Therefore, one can say that electronic libraries have specific needs in terms of content, services and long-term preservation. In contrast, digital libraries suffer from several inherent constraints: storage limitation, performance, relevancy, ...

The D2 dopamine receptor (D2 DAR) is one of the most validated drug targets for neuropsychiatric and endocrine disorders. However, clinically approved drugs targeting D2 DAR display poor selectivity between the D2 and other receptors, especially the D3 DAR. This lack of selectivity may lead to undesirable side effects. Here we describe the chemical and pharmacological characterization of a nove...

In this paper, we present the 2006 survey study origin destination and price that we carried out during 2006 fall in the area in the Moroccan region of Rabat-Salé-Zemmour-Zaer. The survey concerns the people’s characteristics, their displacements behavior and the price that they will be able to pay for a tramway ticket. The main objective is to study a set of relative features to the households...

There is a need for a brief specific measure of anger for use in assessment of posttraumatic mental health problems. One unpublished short scale is the Dimensions of Anger Reactions (DAR; R. Novaco, 1975). This study examined the psychometric properties of the DAR using intake and 12-month data for 192 Australian Vietnam veterans with combat-related PTSD. Results showed the DAR to be unidimensi...

Dialect speakers in the North of England use vowel-less forms of the definite article (the) which are unattested in English varieties elsewhere and have been termed Definite Article Reduction (DAR). Previous research on DAR has provided detailed phonological descriptions, but less insight has been gained into other aspects of DAR like its emergence and the northern pattern of occurrence. I demo...

In a recent paper Dar and Shaviv (1994) presented results of calculations with an improved standard solar model (SSM) that suggest a standard physics solution to the solar neutrino problem. In a subsequent publication with a similar title Bahcall et al. (1994) have claimed to refute the results obtained by Dar and Shaviv. Here we show that the criticism and conclusions of Bahcall et al. are unj...

We develop the basis of the two dimensional generalized quantum statistical systems by using results on r-generalized Fibonacci sequences. According to the spin value s of the 2d-quasiparticles, we distinguish four classes of quantum statistical systems indexed by s = 0, 1/2 : mod(1), s = 1/M : mod(1), s = n/M : mod(1) and 0 ≤ s ≤ 1 : mod(1). For quantum gases of quasiparticles with s = 1/M : m...

INTRODUCTION The aim of this study was to examine provider perceptions concerning the provision and accessibility of diabetes education, according to levels of economic distress and rurality throughout the US Appalachian region. METHODS A questionnaire regarding diabetes education resources was developed and mailed to all Federally Qualified Health Centers (FQHC), health departments, and know...

The highly polymorphic Rh system is encoded by 2 homologous genes RHD and RHCE. Gene rearrangements, deletions, or point mutations may cause partial D and CE antigens. In this study, a new RHD variant, DAR, and a new RHCE variant, ceAR, are described in 4 Dutch African Blacks. Serologically, DAR showed weaker reactions with a monoclonal antibody and polyclonal antiserum against D. The DAR pheno...

Studies involving lambda phage transduction of the D-arabinose utilization gene (dar+) in Escherichia coli K-12 indicated the product of this gene to be a transdominant activator. An apparent anomaly regarding this hypothesis exists in that a diploid recessive lysogen (lambda dar-/dar-) can spontaneously become capable of growth on D-arabinose.
