The effects of emotional content and time lapse reporting on eyewitness testimony
No full textThis experiment aimed to examine the influence of emotional versus non-emotional events on the recall and accuracy of eyewitness memory, and how the time between viewing the scene and reporting back about it affects the recall and accuracy. Four condition groups were established all viewing the same video but being told they were seeing either “actual footage” of a crime scene or a “reenactment”, and two taking the survey immediately after the video and the remaining two taking it four days later. The survey consisted of two open-ended questions asking for details about all aspects of the crime scene. Our experiment results established that the emotional level of the video affected recall but the time lapse did not have a statistically significant difference. We found that emotionality of a crime scene was positively correlated with recall accuracy. (Author abstract)Dominy, N. and Tremblay, J. (2014).

Moral Good, the Beatific Vision, and God’s Kingdom Writings by Germain Grisez and Peter Ryan, S.J.. Edited by Peter J. Weigel
No full textFor close to half a century, the work of Germain Grisez has been highly influential, and his writings continue to receive considerable attention from philosophers and theologians of diverse viewpoints. His co-author for this work is the professor and noted moral theologian Fr. Peter Ryan, S.J., currently the executive director of the Secretariat of Doctrine and Canonical Affairs of the United States Conference of Catholic Bishops (USCCB). These two eminent scholars explore fundamental questions about Christian eschatology, moral theory, the purpose of human life, and the promise of human fulfilment. The authors examine Christian teaching on the final destiny of persons, investigating the meaning of God's kingdom, the hope of the beatific vision, and the centrality of moral goodness and divine grace in one's final end. This work is an ideal source for students, scholars, ministers and lay persons interested in basic questions of Christian theology, the philosophy of religion, ethical theory, and Catholic doctrin

OTS1 and OTS2 SUMO proteases link plant development and survival under salt stress
No full textHigh salinity is an important factor limiting agriculture as major crops are salt sensitive. Understanding salt stress signalling is key to producing salt tolerant crops. The small ubiquitin-like modifier (SUMO) is a crucial regulator of signalling proteins in eukaryotes. Attachment of SUMO onto substrates is reversible and SUMO-proteases which specifically cleave the SUMO-substrate linkages play a vital regulatory role during SUMOylation. We have identified two SUMO proteases OTS1 and OTS2 that act redundantly to regulate salt stress responses in Arabidopsis. ots1 ots2 double mutants show extreme sensitivity to salt. However during non-salt conditions, ots1 ots2 double mutants are phenotypically similar to wild-type plants in terms of growth and development. Overexpressing SUMO1 in the ots1 ots2 double mutants severally diminishes plant size as quantified by rosette diameter even under non-stressed conditions. This reduction in plant growth is reminiscent of ots1 ots2 double mutants under salt stress. Our data indicates that overSUMOylation of target proteins can have severe effects on plant growth and that SUMO proteases like OTS1/2 are key to maintaining cellular balance of SUMOylation. We propose that upon environmental stress the hyperSUMOylation of key target proteins act to retard growth to survive stress periods.

Small ubiquitin-like modifier proteases OVERLY TOLERANT TO SALT1 and -2 regulate salt stress responses in Arabidopsis
