    Postcard from Mrs. D.L. Cooke to Sam Tanaka in the Jerome incarceration camp including a greeting and update from Cooke.The Japanese American Archival Collection documents the people, places, and daily life of Japanese Americans, primarily those who lived in the once thriving community of pre-war Florin in the Sacramento region, as well as the conditions in American incarceration camps during World War II. The approximately 7,000 original items include personal and official letters, photographs, diaries, arts and crafts, newsletters, textiles, camps artifacts, yearbooks and other publications

    A chromosome inversion near the KIT gene and the Tobiano spotting pattern in horses

    No full text
    Tobiano is a white spotting pattern in horses caused by a dominant gene, Tobiano(TO). Here, we report TO associated with a large paracentric chromosome inversion on horse chromosome 3. DNA sequences flanking the inversion were identified and a PCR test was developed to detect the inversion. The inversion was only found in horses with the tobiano pattern, including horses with diverse genetic backgrounds, which indicated a common genetic origin thousands of years ago. The inversion does not interrupt any annotated genes, but begins approximately 100 kb downstream of the KIT gene. This inversion may disrupt regulatory sequences for the KIT gene and cause the white spotting pattern.S.A. Brooks, T.L. Lear, D.L. Adelson, E. Baile

    bíogo: a simple high-performance bioinformatics toolkit for the Go language

    No full text
    biogo is a framework designed to ease development and maintenance of computationally intensive bioinformatics applications (Kortschak and Adelson 2014). The library is written in the Go programming language, a garbage-collected, strictly typed compiled language with built in support for concurrent processing, and performance comparable to C and Java. It provides a variety of data types and utility functions to facilitate manipulation and analysis of large scale genomic and other biological data. biogo uses a concise and expressive syntax, lowering the barriers to entry for researchers needing to process large data sets with custom analyses while retaining computational safety and ease of code review. We believe biogo provides an excellent environment for training and research in computational biology because of its combination of strict typing, simple and expressive syntax, and high performance.R.

    Cross-Cultural Meta-Analyses

    No full text
    In the enormous collection of cross-cultural data that have been published during the last few decades it is difficult to perceive patterns. There is a clear need for systematizing the vast amount of cross-cultural studies and for developing models that explain cross-cultural differences in psychology. Two methods of cross-cultural meta-analysis can be distinguished. First, the instrument-based method of comparing data for one instrument across countries is suitable for instruments which have been administered in many countries. Second, a domain-based meta-analysis used a thematic domain from which culture-comparative studies are sampled instead of one specific instrument or method

    Il saggio esamina le innovazioni introdotte nella somministrazione a tempo determinato dal d.l. n. 34/2014, conv. l. 78/2014. Si rileva come la nuova legge, accomuna contratto di lavoro a termine e contratto di somministrazione a tempo determinato e si evidenziano le incertezze della nuova normativa determinate dalla commistione tra disciplina di somministrazione a termine e disciplina di contratto a termine.The essay examines the innovations introduced in the fixed term labour-only subcontracting by d.l. n. 34/2014, conv. l. 78/2014. The Author remarks that the Act, unites fixed term employment contract and fixed term subcontracting. The uncertainties of the new regulation determined by the blending of the regulation of fixed term employment contract and fixed term subcontracting are also highlighted

    A large-scale biomass bulk terminal

    No full text
    This research explores the possibility of a large-scale bulk terminal in West Europe dedicated to handle solid and liquid biomass materials. Various issues regarding the conceptual design of such a terminal have been investigated and demonstrated in this research: the potential biomass materials that will be the major international trade flows in the future, the characteristics of these potential biomass materials, the interaction between the material properties and terminal equipment, the perspective from terminal logistic process, and the terminal configuration. To this day no such a terminal exists yet. Therefore, the results from this research are a first step that will help the future development of such a terminal.Marine and Transport TechnologyMechanical, Maritime and Materials Engineerin

    La raffigurazione dell'Arcangelo Michele nella monetazione medievale

    No full text
    Questo articolo nasce dall’unione delle relazioni tenute dall’autore nel corso dei convegni “Langobardorum Nummorum Doctrina” (2018) e “In Sanctorum Nummis Effigies” (2019). Dopo un’attenta ricerca viene mostrato il percorso dell’iconografia micaelica nella monetazione medievale e il suo cammino attraverso l’Europa. L’effige del santo raffigurata in primis dai Gepidi e poi da Longobardi e Bizantini, si diffonderà in tutta l’Europa medievale, dal Regno di Sicilia fino alla Danimarca. Il lavoro, frutto non solo di una ricerca numismatica, ma anche storica e artistica, vuole essere un punto di partenza di uno studio più complesso che l’autore sta compiendo sulla raffigurazione del santo nelle monete medievali.This article was born from the union of the reports given by the author during the conferences “Langobardorum Nummorum Doctrina” (2018) and “In Sanctorum Nummis Effigies” (2019). After careful research, the path of Michaelic iconography in medieval coinage and its journey through Europe is demonstrated. The effigy of the saint depicted primarily by the Gepids, and then by the Lombards and the Byzantines, spread throughout medieval Europe, from the Kingdom of Sicily to Denmark. This work, the result not only of numismatic but also of historical and artistic research, is intended to be a starting point for a more complex study that the author is carrying out on the depiction of the saint in medieval coins
