A literary manifesto is not a program. Even so, many are irritated by the doctrinal constraints of any manifesto or by its imprecision. There is confusion between the theoretical reinforcement of the manifesto, which has rather a conative function (to use a term in linguistics), of conviction. Predictive and limitative is the program. Politically speaking, the former proves "creative political ind

Donations to Outgroup Charities, but Not Ingroup Charities, Predict Helping Intentions Toward Street-Beggars in Sweden

This article investigates how donation behavior to charitable organizations and helping intentions toward begging European Union (EU)-migrants are related. This question was tested by analyzing survey responses from 1,050 participants sampled from the general Swedish population. Although the overall results suggested that donations to charitable organizations were positively related to helping int

Inferring community assembly processes from macroscopic patterns using dynamic eco-evolutionary models and Approximate Bayesian Computation (ABC)

Statistical techniques exist for inferring community assembly processes from community patterns. Habitat filtering, competition, and biogeographical effects have, for example, been inferred from signals in phenotypic and phylogenetic data. The usefulness of current inference techniques is, however, debated as a mechanistic and causal link between process and pattern is often lacking, and evolution

Thinking like a state : Doing labor activism in South China

Since economic reforms were introduced in the late 1970s, China has undergone significant political, economic, and social transformations. The Chinese Communist Party (CCP)- led government has encountered massive student-led protests, outlasted both Eastern European and Soviet variants of communism, and weathered ethnic riots. Despite numerous predictions of its impending demise and anticipation o

Christianity as Globalization

Christianity has not only provided theological justification and imaginary to globalization processes but is also, in itself, a globalizing movement. Within Christianity, one can trace several types of globalizations; in this article, its global character with its huge variations is studied in light of globalization considered by contemporary scholarship under the labels “grobalization”, “grocaliz

PRDM10 -rearranged Soft Tissue Tumor : A Clinicopathologic Study of 9 Cases

Gene fusion transcripts containing PRDM10 were recently identified in low-grade undifferentiated pleomorphic sarcomas (UPS). Here, we describe the morphologic and clinical features of 9 such tumors from 5 men and 4 women (age: 20 to 61 y). Three cases had previously been diagnosed as UPS, 3 as superficial CD34-positive fibroblastic tumor (SCD34FT), 2 as pleomorphic liposarcoma, and 1 as pleomorphi

T Cell Activation Pathways : B7, LFA-3, and ICAM-1 Shape Unique T Cell Profiles

Two signals are required for induction of cell proliferation and cytokine production in resting T cells. Occupancy of the T cell receptor by antigen/MHC complexes delivers the first signal to the T cell, while the second signal is provided by interaction with costimulatory ligands on APC. CD2, LFA-1, and CD28 are the major costimulatory and adhesive molecules on T cells and bind to the LFA-3, ICAM

Diffractive dijet production : Breakdown of factorization

We analyze the origin of dramatic breakdown of diffractive factorization, observed in single-diffractive (SD) dijet production in hadronic collisions. One of the sources is the application of the results of measurements of the diagonal diffractive deep inelastic scattering to the off-diagonal hadronic diffractive process. The suppression caused by a possibility of inelastic interaction with the sp

Interatrial block and ischemic stroke

Cardiac embolism is a common cause of ischemic stroke. Atrial fibrillation (AF) can be detected in nearly 25% of all patients with stroke by sequentially combining different electrocardiographic methods (1). Advanced IAB (aIAB) has been described to predict occurrence of new onset and recurrent AF (2). We describe a case of a patient in whom detection of atypical aIAB motivated extended cardiac mo

ICOS eddy covariance flux-station site setup : A review

The Integrated Carbon Observation System Research Infrastructure aims to provide long-Term, continuous observations of sources and sinks of greenhouse gases such as carbon dioxide, methane, nitrous oxide, and water vapour. At ICOS ecosystem stations, the principal technique for measurements of ecosystem-Atmosphere exchange of GHGs is the eddy-covariance technique. The establishment and setup of an
