T N-methyl-D-aspartate (NMDA)type glutamate receptor is one of three major classes of receptors for glutamate, the principle excitatory neurotransmitter in the central nervous system. It plays a key role in learning and in the formation of memories by acting as a ‘‘coincidence detector’’ that initiates changes in synaptic strength that lead to the formation of new neural networks (1). It is als...

verbosity is one of the techniques of decorated and artificial prose texts that plays major role in the book called dorraye nadireh. mirza mahdi khan astarabadi (1175 h.g) tried in this eminent book to use the various kinds of fine writing like verbosity till the ending events of nadir period (1160); he likes to show off his masterly in writing technique by using  arabic words and various synon...

Story-telling has been a means of bequeathing knowledge since aeons. Whereas the idea of the story-telling remains unaltered, the world around undertakes continuous changes. New media, new technologies and devices, new ways of communication define a new format of the story-telling. This paper proposes a new non-linear version of mobile story-telling in the emerging ubiquity of knowledge sharing...

the attempt to find out if someone is telling a lie has been of human's interest. one of the techniques which is believed to be efficient in future is fmri (functional magnetic resonance imaging), using which the changes of regional blood flow during the designed paradigm can be recorded. this method has been considered as a better technique for studying lie and deception. for investigatin...

The diagnosis of curable, secondary causes of hypertension is a satisfying but challenging aspect, for both patient and doctor, of the clinical management of hypertension. They are probably under-recognized, and the enthusiasm to look for causes is blunted by low pickup rates in unselected patients. Young age encourages a search more because the alternative is many decades of drug treatment tha...

We present in this paper a constrained version of the problem of enumerating all maximal directed acyclic subgraphs (DAG) of a graph G. In this version, we enumerate stories, which are maximal DAGs whose sources and targets belong to a predefined subset of the nodes. First we show how to compute one story in polynomial-time, and we then describe two different algorithms to “tell” all possible s...

Men and women (20 each) were videotaped while describing someone they liked, someone they disliked, someone they were ambivalent about, someone they were indifferent about, someone they liked as though they disliked him or her, and someone they disliked as thought they like him or her. Accuracy at detecting that some deception had occurred was far greater than accuracy at detecting the true und...

Detection of deception and confirmation of truth telling with conventional polygraphy raised a host of technical and ethical issues. Recently, newer methods of recording electromagnetic signals from the brain show promise in permitting the detection of deception or truth telling. Some are even being promoted as more accurate than conventional polygraphy. While the new technologies raise issues ...
