Adrian Frazier, The Adulterous Muse: Maud Gonne, Lucien Millevoye and W. B. Yeats
No full textThis is a compulsively readable book. One would expect no less from the author of Yale University Press’s definitive biography of George Moore (2000), who has subsequently written about ‘the Hollywood Irish’ among other subjects. Adrian Frazier is an experienced and assiduous collator of facts. In this outing he also flirts with a temptation to which biographers succumb at their peril: personal disdain. At a seminar in London presenting his book Frazier prefaced its main topic ironically with..

ABSTRACT BODY:
Objectives: Eruption disorders represent an enigmatic aspect of dental and orthodontic diagnosis. Since the discovery
that Primary Failure of Eruption (PFE, MIM #125350) is due to a genetic defect, several mutations of the PTH1R gene
have been identified as causative. This study aimed to refine our understanding of the phenotype:genotype correlation
of PFE and PTH1R mutations in the mixed dentition. This characterization may lead to improved diagnostic
approaches and provide the foundation for downstream mechanistic studies to understand the pathogenesis of
PTH1R mutations.
Methods: DNA was extracted from saliva samples of 29 patients (3 families and 23 unrelated individuals) who
presented with clinical evidence of infraoccluded teeth. Mutational analysis was completed for the coding regions of
PTH1R gene following PCR amplification and direct sequencing.
Results: Eight of 29 cases revealed a heterozygous pathogenic variant in the PTH1R gene; 5 of 8 variants represent
distinct mutations within the cohort. One mutation (c.1765 T>C p.Trp89Arg) was found to segregate within a family
(n=3) represented by two generations. Mutational analysis using the dbSNP, HGMD and the ESP databases identified
the mutations were previously unreported. In silico analyses of all variants further predicted a putative pathogenic
effect. Extended clinical analysis of the cohrot verified that all the novel mutations co-segregated with the PFE
phenotype that included affection of the mixed dentition. Six of the 8 patients carrying a functional PTH1R mutation
were children in mixed dentition with one or more primary teeth affected.
Conclusions: We report that PFE in the mixed and permanent dentition positively correlates with pathogenic mutations
in the PTH1R gene. Further studies to identify additional genes and correlate the pathogenesis of PFE from mixed to
permanent dentition are ongoing and forthcoming.

The Frazier site: an agate basin occupation and lithic assemblage on the Kersey Terrace, northeastern Colorado
No full text2004 Spring.Includes bibliographical references (pages 181-205).The Frazier site was discovered by Frank Frazier in 1965, and was excavated from 1965 to 1967 by the Denver Museum of Natural History under the direction of H. Marie Wormington. An analysis of the lithic assemblage and a description of the excavations are provided in this thesis because this information has never been published in any detail. The Frazier site is an Agate Basin bison kill-butchery site located near the town of Kersey, Colorado. The Frazier site is important not only because it is one of a few Agate Basin sites on the Northwest Plains, but also because it was the last major excavation directed by H. Marie Wormington for the Denver Museum of Natural History. The Frazier collection is comprised of 1,161 lithic artifacts and 20,012 pieces of bone. Interpretations of Agate Basin activities at the Frazier site are based on the analysis of the lithic material (debitage and tools), and the raw material composition of the collection. In addition to a traditional lithic analysis, the Frazier collection is inspected through the use of minimum nodule analysis (MNA). An examination of the spatial distribution of cultural remains indicates that several distinct activity areas are located at the site. The results of the analysis are used to compare the Frazier data with other Paleoindian sites in the region, particularly with Agate Basin period sites. Unlike the other long-term, multiple-event Agate Basin localities (Agate Basin site, Hell Gap site), the results of the analysis indicate that the Frazier site represents a single-event, short-term bison kill-butchery and processing occupation. The Frazier site therefore offers a different view of Agate Basin behavior on the Plains. Aspects of Agate Basin lithic technology, subsistence, site structure and function, and mobility at a kill/processing site are discussed
Thermal diffusion in a countercurrent-flow Frazier scheme inclined for improved performance
No full textThe separation theory of thermal diffusion in inclined flat-plate columns of countercurrent-flow Frazier scheme is developed and investigated. The equations for the optimum angles of inclination as well as for maximum separation, maximum output and minimum column length, are derived. The author has previously shown that considerable improvement in performance is obtained when a concurrent Frazier scheme is operated at the optimum angles of inclination: it is shown here that further improvement is achieved if the feed streams are conducted in countercurrent flow.補正完畢國外紙本GB

Ovid, Christians, and Celts in the Epilogue of Charles Frazier\u27s Cold Mountain
No full textCHARLES FRAZIER HAS CAREFULLY SITUATED HIS NOVEL ABOUT AN American Civil War deserter within Greek and Latin classical literary traditions. Since its publication, Cold Mountain has all but universally been hailed as an “odyssey” by readers, critics, and scholars, in recognition of its structure as an adventure-laden homeward journey, with the end goal of reuniting two lovers; it is rich with Homeric allusions (even to the point of quotation) and typologies of both character and scene (Chitwood; McDermott, “Frazier Polymêtis.”; Vandiver). In the first chapter, the author further introduces two fragments of the pre-Socratic philosopher, Heraclitus (18), a thinker whose “challenge to mankind is to learn to understand . . . the discourse of nature” (“Heraclitus” 501); in the course of the novel, reflection back on these fragments will contribute substantially to a thematic assertion that war’s devastations may be healed by return to a life attuned to nature (Chitwood; McDermott, “Frazier Polymêtis” 102-03, 122-23). A recent study (McDermott, “Metal Face”) also demonstrates the author’s indebtedness, in the same thematic context, to the Golden-Age motif originated by Hesiod in his Works and Days and featured as well in Virgil’s Georgics and fourth Eclogue
