    abstract: Phillip was nine years old when his village was attacked. “Lost Boys Found” is an ongoing, interdisciplinary project that is collecting, recording and archiving the oral histories of the Lost Boys/Girls of Sudan. The collection is a work-in-progress, seeking to record the oral history of as many Lost Boys/Girls as are willing, and will be used in a future book.Age: 24Region: Bahr al GhazalThis picture and bio was donated to the "Lost Boys Found" oral history project from The Arizona Lost Boys Cente

    The dark side of love : love styles and the Dark Triad

    No full text
    Little work has examined the manner in which the Dark Triad may function in relationship contexts. In this online, international study (N = 302), we correlated the Dark Triad with love styles. Individuals who scored high on the Dark Triad appear to have a ludus – game playing – and a pragma – cerebral – love style. Game playing may allow these individuals to keep others at an emotional distance to maintain their short-term mating style. The Dark Triad composite partially mediated the gender difference in the adoption in the ludus love style, suggesting that the psychological systems that underlie this love style may relate to the adoption of an agentic social style. Similarly, loving with one’s head and not one’s heart may be an expression of the limited empathy/emotional systems characteristic of these individuals

    A novel bimetallic Fe(III) complex with the bis(triaza-cyclononane) ligand 2,6-bis(1,4,7-triazacyclonon-1-ylmethyl)-4-methylphenol (bcmp) is reported. [Fe2{bcmp(-H)}(μ-OH)Cl2]Cl2 (2) contains two octahedral Fe(III) centers bound to the two triaza-cyclononane rings of bcmp. The coordination sphere is completed by one chlorine, one bridging phenolate oxygen and one bridging hydroxide group. The complex has been characterized by elemental analysis, Mössbauer spectroscopy, UV–Vis spectroscopy, pH potentiometric titration, ESI mass spectrometry and cyclic voltammetry. The complex hydrolyzes the DNA model bis(2,4-dinitrophenyl) phosphate (BDNPP) with a maximum activity a pH 7. Michaelis–Menten behavior is observed with kcat = 3.56 × 10−4 s−1 and Km = 0.56 mM (pH 7.0, 40 °C). The interaction of 2 with CT DNA was studied by electronic absorption spectroscopy and gel electrophoresis. Notably, the complex relaxes supercoiled pUC19 DNA into the nicked form at low micromolar concentration (10 μM) in the presence of an external reducing agent (ascorbic acid). Finally, the in vitro antiproliferative activity of 2 was assessed on a panel of human cancer cell lines and results revealed that the complex exhibited a significant cytotoxic effects in particular versus colon LoVo cancer cells, wih IC50 value 2.5 times lower than that shown by the reference metallodrug cisplatin (3.54 versus 8.53 μM).</p

    Artwork photographed and inventoried by the 2015 Summer Art Inventory team in the Visual Resources Center.This is a portrait of Phillip Kenneth Seidman wearing a dark suit and a red tie. His arms are over a chair and he is standing behind. There is a bookshelf in the background. The portrait is framed with a decorative gold frame and no glass. At the bottom center of the frame there is a plaque that reads “PHILLIP KENNETH SEIDMAN / 1907-1999 / MEMPHIS BUSINESSMAN, ECONOMIST, AUTHOR, CIVIC LEADDR, / RHODES LIFE TRUSTEE AND RECIPIENT OF THE COLLEGE’S / DISTINGUISHED SERVICE METAL AND HONORARY DOCTOR OF HUMANITIES DEGREE. HIS WISDOM AND GENEROSITY HAVE / TOUCHED THE LIVES OF GENERATIONS OF RHODES STUDENTS. / DEDICATED SEPTEMBER 14, 1989.”. There is an artist’s signature in red “ ’89 / TOM DONAHUE” at the bottom right corner of the portrait
