    John Gillett of the Winchester Gallery, concludes his text within the Site Works Artist book by saying that ‘drawing' represented in Mitchell Bould's, Site Works project, 'is recognised as the focus of an interactive relationship between people and place, crossing boundaries, weaving communities’In her essay ‘Tracing the Fabric of Construction’ (Site Works artist book) Victoria Mitchell contexts the project within current debates about drawing, space and digital media. Bringing together references from Thom Mayne (‘Connected Isolation’ in Architecture in Transition edited Peter Noever, Munich, Prestel, 1991, p.79) and Manfred Wolff-Plotteg (‘Updating Transformating Principles in Architecture’ in Olafur Eliasson: Surroundings Surrounded edited Peter Weibel, Cambridge Massachusetts and London, England, The MIT Press, p.651)’.She proposes Mitchell Bould’s work as ‘moving drawing…where the simultaneous mapping and merging, of people in time and construction in space, is rhythmically embedded in the transparency and fluidity of old and new media, of drawn lines and digital images.

    Study of the decay mechanism for B+ -> p(p)over-barK(+) and B+ -> p(p)over-bar pi(+)

    No full text
    We study the characteristics of the low mass p (p) over bar enhancements near threshold in the three-body decays B+ -> p (p) over barK(+) and B+ -> p (p) over bar pi(+). We observe that the proton polar angle distributions in the p (p) over bar helicity frame in the two decays have the opposite polarity, and measure the forward-backward asymmetries as a function of the p mass for the p (p) over barK(+) mode. We also search for the intermediate two-body decays, B+ -> (p) over bar Delta(++) and B+ -> p (Delta) over bar (0), and set upper limits on their branching fractions. These results are obtained from a 414 fb(-1) data sample that contains 449 x 10(6) B (B) over bar events collected near the Gamma(4S) resonance with the Belle detector at the KEKB asymmetric-energy e(+)e(-) collider.

    Oh, bury me not on the lore prairie, These words came low and mournfully

    guitars; voiceCollected by Merlin Mitchell Transcribed by Kyle Perrin Reel 23 Item 5 M. P. Mitchell Eldon, Missouri March 15, 1950 The Lone Prairie Oh, bury me not on the lore prairie, These words came low and mournfully From the finest(?) lips of a youth who lay On his dying bed at the close of day. He had wasted and pined 'til on his brow The death shade was slowly gathering now, He thought of his home and his loved ones lone(?), As the cowboys dragged up(?) to see him die. Oh, bury me not on the lone prairie, Where the wild coyotes can howl o'er me, Where the rattle snakes hiss and wind blows free, Oh, bury me not on the lone prairie. I'll always wait to be left when I die In a little church yard on the green hill side, By my father's grave let mine there be, Oh, bury me not on the lone prairie. And he told me then a Mother's prayer And a sister's tears might linger there, For the sake of those who will w e p for me, Oh, bury me not on the lone prairie. Oh, bury me not, and his voice failed there, But we took no heed to his dying prayer, In a shallow grave just six by three, We buried him there on the lone prairie. And the cowboys long as they roam the plains, For the lonesome spot where his bones were laid, Fling a handful of roses over his grave With a prayer(?) to God his soul to save. May the light winged bird(?) fly far to rest Where the gimpsom sleeps on the prairie's grass, May the Texas roving breezes sway, And the country grow on the prairie grey. It matters not, though, I've been told, Where the body lies when the heart grows cold, But grant, oh, grant this wish to me, Oh, bury me not on the lone prairie.Funding for digitization provided by the Arkansas Humanities Council and the Happy Hollow Foundation

    Spontaneous calcium release from sarcoplasmic reticulum. Effect of local anesthetics.

    No full text
    Spontaneous calcium release from purified light sarcoplasmic reticulum has been previously described (Palade, P., Mitchell, R. D., and Fleischer, S. (1983) J. Biol. Chem. 258, 8098-8107 ) and found to be distinct from several other forms of Ca2+ release. Ca2+ release occurs after a lag period following active Ca2+ preloading and depletion of extravesicular Ca2+. In the present study, we find that local anesthetics inhibit spontaneous Ca2+ release, in a time-dependent manner, varying considerably in the preincubation time required to exert maximal effect. At pH 7.0, hydrophilic and mostly charged local anesthetics, such as procaine, procainamide, and N-(2,6-dimethylphenyl carbamoyl methyl)triethyl ammonium bromide, inhibit Ca2+ release only after long preincubations (hours), whereas more hydrophobic local anesthetics are effective after only a short incubation (minutes) with sarcoplasmic reticulum. The more hydrophobic anesthetics take somewhat longer to reach equilibrium, as studied by inhibition of unidirectional Ca2+ efflux, and there is a direct relationship between hydrophobic partition coefficient and half-time to reach equilibrium. Agents known to inhibit permeability pathways for monovalent cations i.e. K+ channel blockers (decamethonium and n-dodecane-1, 12-N,N,N,N',N',N'-hexamethyl-bis-ammonium) or the anion blocker (4,4'-diisothiocyanostilbene-2,2'-disulfonic acid), do not inhibit spontaneous Ca2+ release. Carbonyl cyanide m-fluorophenylhydrazone, a protonophore, and gramicidin D, a monovalent cation ionophore, have no effect on Ca2+ release whether local anesthetics are present or not, while the Ca2+ ionophore A23187 relieves inhibition of Ca2+ release by local anesthetics. Ruthenium red does not inhibit spontaneous Ca2+ release. These findings suggest that the binding site(s) for local anesthetics is located on the inner face of the sarcoplasmic reticulum membrane and that local anesthetics interact directly with a Ca2+ channel rather than with other permeability pathways which might indirectly influence Ca2+ channel gating

    Going Beyond Counting First Authors in Author Co-citation Analysis

    No full text
    The present study examines one of the fundamental aspects of author co-citation analysis (ACA) - the way co-citation counts are defined. Co-citation counting provides the data on which all subsequent statistical analyses and mappings are based, and we compare ACA results based on two different types of co-citation counting - the traditional type that only counts the first one among a cited work's authors on the one hand and a non-traditional type that takes into account the first 5 authors of a cited work on the other hand. Results indicate that the picture produced through this non-traditional author co-citation counting contains more coherent author groups and is therefore considerably clearer. However, this picture represents fewer specialties in the research field being studied than that produced through the traditional first-author co-citation counting when the same number of top-ranked authors is selected and analyzed. Reasons for these effects are discussed
