Edouard Vuillermoz and Dix Pièces Mélodiques
No full textabstract: ABSTRACT
Edouard Vuillermoz (1869-1939) was a horn player and teacher who studied and later taught at the Paris Conservatory during the early twentieth century. As did many of the professors from the Conservatory, Vuillermoz published works for the horn. Unfortunately, his name has largely faded into obscurity and most of his works are no longer in print, yet one has remained in the repertoire and is still available for purchase today—Dix Pièces Mélodiques. Published in 1927 by Alphonse-Leduc, Vuillermoz desired for his students a set of etudes that would teach mastery of transposition, but he was not a composer. The ten transposition exercises he created were selected and transcribed from a compilation of vocalises commissioned by a vocal professor at the Conservatory, Amédée-Louis Hettich (1856-1937).
Hettich desired vocalise-etudes that would able aid and inspire his students, so he commissioned over one-hundred-fifty vocalises by modern composers during the first half of the twentieth century. Composers including Bozza, Copland, Dukas, Fauré, Messiaen, Nielsen, Ravel, and Tomasi answered his call for works between 1906 and 1938. These modern vocalise-etudes have since disappeared from the vocal repertoire. Now, a century later, many of these studies have entered the public domain and are resurfacing as instrumental transcriptions and concert etudes. This study promotes awareness of Edouard Vuillermoz’s Dix Pièces Mélodiques and advocates for their inclusion in a modern revival.Dissertation/ThesisDoctoral Dissertation Music 201
S-Nitrosylation in Organs of Mice Exposed to Low or High Doses of γ-Rays: The Modulating Effect of Iodine Contrast Agent at a Low Radiation Dose
No full textThe covalent addition of nitric oxide (NO•) onto cysteine thiols, or S-nitrosylation, modulates the activity of key signaling proteins. The dysregulation of normal S-nitrosylation contributes to degenerative conditions and to cancer. To gain insight into the biochemical changes induced by low-dose ionizing radiation, we determined global S-nitrosylation by the “biotin switch” assay coupled with mass spectrometry analyses in organs of C57BL/6J mice exposed to acute 0.1 Gy of cesium-137 γ-rays. The dose of radiation was delivered to the whole body in the presence or absence of iopamidol, an iodinated contrast agent used during radiological examinations. To investigate whether similar or distinct nitrosylation patterns are induced following high-dose irradiation, mice were exposed in parallel to acute 4 Gy of cesium-137 γ rays. Analysis of modulated S-nitrosothiols (SNO-proteins) in freshly-harvested organs of animals sacrificed 13 days after irradiation revealed radiation dose- and contrast agent-dependent changes. The major results were as follows: (i) iopamidol alone had significant effects on S-nitrosylation in brain, lung and liver; (ii) relative to the control, exposure to 0.1 Gy without iopamidol resulted in statistically-significant SNO changes in proteins that differ in molecular weight in liver, lung, brain and blood plasma; (iii) iopamidol enhanced the decrease in S-nitrosylation induced by 0.1 Gy in brain; (iv) whereas a decrease in S-nitrosylation occurred at 0.1 Gy for proteins of ~50 kDa in brain and for proteins of ~37 kDa in liver, an increase was detected at 4 Gy in both organs; (v) mass spectrometry analyses of nitrosylated proteins in brain revealed differential modulation of SNO proteins (e.g., sodium/potassium-transporting ATPase subunit beta-1; beta tubulins; ADP-ribosylation factor 5) by low- and high-dose irradiation; and (vi) ingenuity pathway analysis identified major signaling networks to be modulated, in particular the neuronal nitric oxide synthase signaling pathway was differentially modulated by low- and high-dose γ-irradiation.Peer reviewe

Implications of the U.S. Farm Act on Canadian Agriculture
No full textThis paper addresses the implications of the U.S. Farm Security and Rural Investment Act of 2002 or "Farm Act" for Canadian agriculture. The Farm Act, which is expected to add at least US $45 billion in new price supports over its six-year timeframe, is expected to harm the position of less-subsidized and non-subsidized producers in Canada and other countries. Canadian farm products will be less competitive not only domestically, but also in the U.S. and in third-country markets. Canada will be most affected by subsidies for corn, soybeans, wheat, and pulse crops. New country-of-origin labeling rules under the Farm Act are also expected to be disruptive to Canadian livestock exports. In addressing these issues the paper also explores potential Canadian responses - including filing WTO or NAFTA complaints - as well as the broader implications for U.S.-Canada trade and international cooperation.U.S. Farm Bill, U.S.-Canada trade, Agricultural and Food Policy, International Relations/Trade,
Edouard Pichon et les patois
No full textInternational audienceAbstract. Edouard Pichon and the " patois ". Mobilized as a doctor during the First World War, Edouard Pichon kept in touch by mail with his uncle Jacques Damourette, the co-author for their Essai de grammaire de la langue française. In his letters of the year 1915, he tells him about his studies of dialects and regional languages. Using lists of words and conjugation paradigms, he seeks to find in the forms of Picard, Franco-Provençal, Catalan and Languedocian the proof of a permanence of the French mentality through these different speeches. Drawing on what he hears from the inhabitants of the Santerrois and soliciting various soldiers as informants, he preferred a philological method to study Provençal in Mistral's Mirèio. Using an idiosyncratic notation of sounds, Pichon has a differentialistic approach. He sees dialects as the prosodic interpretation of the same language, French, as an " affective " melody whose " representative " function would remain constant by the effect of racial atavism. Thus, grammar becomes an illustration of a theory that makes languages, and links between them, the proof of a transcendence of the race on social formations. If there are affinities between French, Occitan, Breton and Alsatian, it is not the result of contact but the persistence of a common biological substrate. In this respect, Pichon opposes Gaston Paris's historicalist vision of Romance languages and Antoine Meillet's sociological principles.Mobilisé comme médecin pendant la Première guerre mondiale, Edouard Pichon est resté en relation épistolaire avec son oncle et collaborateur pour l'Essai de grammaire de la langue française, Jacques Damourette. Dans une série de missives de l'année 1915, il lui fait part des études qu'il mène sur les dialectes et les langues régionales. A partir de listes de mots et de paradigmes de conjugaison, il cherche à retrouver dans les formes du picard, du franco-provençal, du catalan et du languedocien la preuve d'une permanence de la mentalité française à travers ses différents parlers. Mettant à contribution ce qu'il entend chez les habitants du santerrois et sollicitant comme informateurs les militaires des unités dans lesquelles il est affecté, il revient à une approche philologique en étudiant le provençal dans Mirèio de Mistral. Utilisant une notation phonétique idiosyncrasique, Pichon a une approche différentialiste. Il conçoit les dialectes comme l'interprétation prosodique, « affective », d'une même langue, le français, dont la fonction « représentative » resterait constante par l'effet d'un atavisme racial. Ainsi la grammaire devient l'illustration d'une théorie qui fait des langues, et des rapprochements entre elles, la preuve d'une transcendance des propriétés de race sur les formations sociales. S'il y a des affinités entre le français, l'occitan, le breton et l'alsacien, ce n'est pas un effet de contact mais la rémanence d'un substrat biologique commun. A ce titre, Pichon s'oppose à la vision historiciste de Gaston Paris en romanistique comme aux principes sociologiques d'Antoine Meillet
