    Viral reproductive pathogens of dogs and cats

    No full text
    This article reviews the current literature on the viral agents that cause reproductive failures in domestic carnivores (dogs and cats). A meaningful update is provided on the etiologic, clinical, pathologic, diagnostic, and prophylactic aspects of the viral infections impacting canine and feline reproduction as a consequence of either direct virus replication or severe debilitation of pregnant animals

    ENCICLOPEDIA MATEMATICĂ A CLASELOR DE NUMERE ÎNTREGI

    No full text
    Numerele naturale au fascinat dintotdeauna omenirea, ce le-a considerat, pe bună dreptate, ca fiind mai mult decât mijloace de a studia cantităţile, le-a considerat entităţi având o personalitate proprie. Mistica tuturor popoarelor abundă de proprietăţi supranaturale atribuite numerelor. Într-adevăr, pare că, pe măsură ce le cercetezi mai adânc, descoperi că au „consistenţă”, că, departe de a fi o creaţie conceptuală a omului, un simplu instrument la îndemâna sa, se conduc de fapt după legităţi proprii, pe care nu-ţi permit să le influenţezi, ci doar să le descoperi

    Carmichael number with three prime factors.

    No full text
    International audienceLet C3(x)C_3(x) be the number of Carmichael numbers nxn\le x having exactly 3 prime factors. It has been conjectured that C3(x)C_3(x) is of order x1/3(logx)1/3x^{1/3}(\log x)^{-1/3} exactly. We prove an upper bound of order x7/20+εx^{7/20+\varepsilon}, improving the previous best result due to Balasubramanian and Nagaraj, in which the exponent 7/207/20 was replaced by 5/145/14.The proof combines various elementary estimates with an argument using Kloosterman fractions, which ultimately relies on a bound for the Ramanujan sum

    Geographic profiling in Nazi Berlin: fact and fiction

    No full text
    Geographic profiling uses the locations of connected crime sites to make inferences about the probable location of the offender’s ‘anchor point’ (usually a home, but sometimes a workplace). We show how the basic ideas of the method were used in a Gestapo investigation that formed the basis of a classic German novel about domestic resistance to the Nazis during the Second World War. We use modern techniques to re-analyse this case, and show that these successfully locate the Berlin home address of Otto and Elise Hampel, who had distributed hundreds of anti-Nazi postcards, after analysing just 34 of the 214 incidents that took place before their arrest. Our study provides the first empirical evidence to support the suggestion that analysis of minor terrorism-related acts such as graffiti and theft could be used to help locate terrorist bases before more serious incidents occur

    Norma Coverdale, B.A.: the treatment of women in selected works of Henry de Montherlant

    No full text
    The aim of this thesis is to determine how women are treated in selectedworks of Henry de Montherlant. This is explored by examining their relationshipswith other women as well as with men. Inevitably, this leads to an analysis ofthe multifaceted area of love. Part I researches Montherlant's prose work and included in this section is the investigation of the importance of 'l'ordre male' to the author and the influence this exerts over his early prose work in the areas of tauromachy, war and sport, and where the male adherence to this concept leaves women. The 'syncretisme et alternance' which is central to Montherlant's thinking is explored in this section.Part 2 is concerned with Montherlant's theatre in which the psychological development of the main characters is of great importance. It is in this section that a comparative study is made of the influence of Mme. Elisabeth Zehrfuss' written contribution to La Reine morte. Her unpublished notes are set out in full in the Appendix. The thesis also draws on the unpublished correspondence between Henry de Montherlant and Elisabeth Zehrfuss between the years 1934 and 1945. An investigation is made as to whether or not there are any differences between the way women are treated in Montherlant's prose and in his theatre and the conclusion is drawn that there are

    Le Canada souffre-t-il de la maladie hollandaise?

    No full text
    L’étude cherche à mettre en évidence un cas de maladie hollandaise au Canada, c'est-à-dire si la relative force de la monnaie canadienne explique les difficultés du secteur manufacturier. Sous cette hypothèse, le taux de change et/ou le prix des produits de base devraient affecter différemment la croissance des régions énergétiques de l’Ouest de celle des régions manufacturières de l’Est. La méthodologie économétrique consiste en un modèle à correction d’erreur servant à décrire la dynamique de court terme et de long terme qui existerait théoriquement entre notre variable dépendante (emploi) et nos variables explicatives (taux de change et prix des produits de base)
