Conference Proceeding
Going to a microcomputer fair or show is fun, exhilarating, and exhausting. Organizing a microcomputer fair or show is also fun, exhilarating, and exhausting! Despite the work that goes into a show, ...it is worthwhile if things go well. Many arrangements for a microcomputer show are similar to the arrangements for any kind of show, fair, or exhibit. But there are some differences as well. For example, the organizers of a college microcomputer show may be less practiced in anticipating all the decisions that must be made. This is the report of one experience at organizing a microcomputer show and a descriptive checklist of things to consider.
There are many ways to deliver academic and administrative computer services. Some imply competition and some imply cooperation. It is useful to discuss and analyze these situations in game-theory ...terms. To illustrate such an analysis, data from the University of New Hampshire are used.
Mouse mammary gland organ culture technique was utilized to determine the effects of retinoids on the prolactin-induced structural differentiation of the mammary gland. Thoracic glands from BALB/c ...mice pretreated with steroids differentiate in 6 days into alveolar structures in presence of insulin and prolactin. All-trans-retinoic acid and N-(-4-hydroxyphenyl)retinamide inhibit prolactin-induced structural changes in the glands. Retinyl acetate, which is effective against mammary carcinogenesis in the rat, but is ineffective against mouse mammary carcinogenesis, failed to inhibit such proliferation. These results were correlated with inhibition of 3Hthymidine incorporation into DNA in a dose related manner by retinoids effective in inhibiting mammary development.
SteD is a transmembrane effector of the Salmonella SPI-2 type III secretion system that inhibits T cell activation by reducing the amounts of at least three proteins -major histocompatibility complex ...II (MHCII), CD86 and CD97 -from the surface of antigen-presenting cells. SteD specifically localises at the trans-Golgi network (TGN) and MHCII compartments; however, the targeting, membrane integration and trafficking of SteD are not understood. Using systematic mutagenesis, we identify distinct regions of SteD that are required for these processes. We show that SteD integrates into membranes of the ER/Golgi through a two-step mechanism of membrane recruitment from the cytoplasm followed by integration. SteD then migrates to and accumulates within the TGN. From here it hijacks the host adaptor protein (AP)1-mediated trafficking pathway from the TGN to MHCII compartments. AP1 binding and post-TGN trafficking require a short sequence in the N-terminal cytoplasmic tail of SteD that resembles the AP1-interacting dileucine sorting signal, but in inverted orientation, suggesting convergent evolution.

The Galactic Plane Infrared Polarization Survey (GPIPS) seeks to characterize the magnetic field in the dusty Galactic disk using near-infrared stellar polarimetry. All GPIPS observations were ...completed using the 1.83 m Perkins telescope and Mimir instrument. GPIPS observations surveyed 76 deg2 of the northern Galactic plane, from Galactic longitudes 18°-56° and latitudes −1° to +1°, in the H band (1.6 m). Surveyed stars span 7th-16th mag, resulting in nearly 10 million stars with measured linear polarizations. Of these stars, ones with mH < 12.5 mag and polarization percentage uncertainties under 2% were judged to be high quality and number over one million. GPIPS data reveal plane-of-sky magnetic field orientations for numerous interstellar clouds for AV values to ∼30 mag. The average sky separation of stars with mH < 12.5 mag is about 30″, or about 60 per Planck polarization resolution element. Matching to Gaia DR2 showed the brightest GPIPS stars are red giants with distances in the 0.6-7.5 kpc range. Polarization orientations are mostly parallel to the Galactic disk, with some zones showing significant orientation departures. Changes in orientations are stronger as a function of Galactic longitude than of latitude. Considered at 10′ angular scales, directions that show the greatest polarization fractions and narrowest polarization position angle distributions are confined to about 10 large, coherent structures that are not correlated with star-forming clouds. The GPIPS polarimetric and photometric data products (Data Release 4 catalogs and images) are publicly available for over 13 million stars.
For copyright purposes maps include marine charts, celestial and planetary maps, globes, and atlases. Copyright protection of maps is easily secured and inexpensive but is often neglected by ...cartographers. An understanding of map copyright involves consideration of registration, ownership, infringement, fair use, compilation of facts, and the distinction from a patent, among other topics. Most important, maps have been the subject of a unique interpretation of the copyright law by the courts, resulting in the requirement of an unusual level of originality. This is complicated by a lack of understanding by the courts of the nature of thematic maps and the general reluctance of the law to grapple with the technology of "neopublishing."
