Correlation between plasma membrane potential and second messenger generation in the promyelocytic cell line HL-60
The effects of plasma membrane depolarization on cytosolic free calcium ([Ca2+]i) and inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate (Ins(1,4,5)P3) generation were investigated in the human promyelocytic cell line HL-60 differentiated with either dimethyl sulfoxide or retinoic acid into neutrophil-like cells. Increases in [Ca2+]i and accumulation of Ins(1,4,5)P3 were triggered by two chemoattractants fMet-Leu-Phe and leukotriene B4. Plasma membrane potential was depolarized by isoosmotic substitution of NaCl with KCl, by the pore-forming ionophore gramicidin D, or by long term treatment with ouabain. Both Ca2+ mobilization from intracellular stores and Ca2+ influx across the plasma membrane were reduced by prior depolarization of plasma membrane potential regardless of the procedure employed to collapse it. Agonist-induced generation of Ins(1,4,5)P3 was also reduced in parallel in pre-depolarized HL-60 cells. The present findings provide further evidence suggesting that plasma membrane potential can be an important modulator of agonist-activated second messenger generation in myelocytic cells

Performances of the HL (Hyperloop) transport system
This paper deals with an analysis of performances of the HL (Hyperloop) transport system considered as an advanced transport alternative to the existing APT (Air Passenger Transport) and HSR (High Speed Rail) systems. The considered performances are operational, financial, social and environmental. The operational performance include capacity and quality of service provided to the system’s users-passengers with attributes such as door-to-door travel time consisting of the access and egress time, schedule delay, in-vehicle time, and interchange time. The economic performances embrace the costs and revenues of operating the system. The costs include that for infrastructure, vehicles, traffic management facilities and equipment, and employees. The revenues embrace earnings from pricing users/passengers. The environmental performances include energy consumption and related emissions of GHGs (Green House Gases), and land use. The social performances are considered to be noise and safety. The analytical models of indicators of these performances are developed and applied to the scenario of operating the HL system on the short- to medium-haul travel distances/routes. These are then compared to the corresponding performances of the HSR and APT. This comparison has shown that the HL system may possess some advantages but also disadvantages regarding particular performances.Transport and PlanningOLD Urban and Regional Developmen
Letter to Alexander Ramsey from Lew Wallace
Letter to Alexander Ramsey, Secretary of War, United States, Washington, D.C., from Lew Wallace, Governor of the Territory of New Mexico, Santa Fe. The Territorial Legislature passed an act approving full quota of arms, weapons, to defend the citizens and their property from hostile Indian attacks, Indian depredations, military, and when Governor got the bond to pay for it will execute it.

Calciosome, a sarcoplasmic reticulum-like organelle involved in intracellular Ca2+-handling by non-muscle cells: studies in human neutrophils and HL-60 cells.
Calciosomes are intracellular organelles in HL-60 cells, neutrophils and various other cell types, characterized by their content of a Ca2+-binding protein that is biochemically and immunologically similar to calsequestrin (CS) from muscle cells. In subcellular fractionation studies the CS-like protein copurifies with functional markers of the inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate (IP3) releasable Ca2+-store. These markers (ATP-dependent Ca2+-uptake and IP3-induced Ca2+-release) show a subcellular distribution which is clearly distinct from the endoplasmic reticulum and other organelles. In morphological studies, antibodies against rabbit skeletal muscle CS protein specifically stained hitherto unrecognized vesicles with a diameter between 50 and 250 nm. Thus both, biochemical and morphological studies indicate that the calsequestrin containing intracellular Ca2+-store, now referred to as the calciosome, is distinct from other known organelles such as endoplasmic reticulum. Calciosomes are likely to play an important role in intracellular Ca2+-homeostasis. They are possibly the intracellular target of inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate and thus the source of Ca2+ that is redistributed into the cytosol following surface receptor activation in non-muscle cells
Telegraph to Lew Wallace from Carl Schurz
Telegraph, Western Union Telegraph Company, to Lew Wallace, Governor of the Territory of New Mexico, from Carl Schurz, Secretary of the Interior, regarding the denial of his request for more regular United States Army troops to be sent to New Mexico for defense against the Indians from the War Department, without abandoning other parts of the nation exposed to similar greater danger from the Indians. If New Mexico calls up men for defense must pay for them itself, said General Hatch did not see the need for troops, danger was much exaggerated.
