Noss Family Musical Novelty Company
No full textThis is a cabinet photograph of the Noss family musicians, which includes the father and mother, their six children, and some of their instruments. Also known as the "Noss Jollities of Musical Comedy," the family resided in New Brighton, Pennsylvania. Their first professional performance was in Homewood, Pennsylvania, around 1880. They toured the United States, Canada, Cuba, and Mexico, performing in high-class theaters and vaudeville. At some point, the parents stopped performing, and five of the children continued as "The Five Musical Nosses." The family retired from performing in 1925. This photo includes the names of the family members written on the bottom of the photo, "Lottie, Mrs. H. Noss, May, Mr. H Noss, Bertha, Fred, Flora, and Frank."
The back of the photo says "Moss Family Musical Novelty Company. Musical, Character and Sketch Entertainment. Brass B and Chorus and Orchestra." It includes more information about each family member and the instruments and skill sets they perform. The bottom of the photo says, "Cabinet Photographs of Noss Family, Groups or Single, 25 Cents: Set of 6, $1.00. Mailed to any address on receipt of price.

Introducing the nature of school science (NOSS)
No full textThis paper focuses on how students and teachers address features of science in school science practice in lower secondary school. The pointof departure is that if a school subject content is treated as relevant, it is likely to promote the involvement of the students. The conceptnature of science (NOS) could be part of science education and perhaps enhance the relevance of a school science activity. The excerptsfound in this text are based on video observations in two schools. The classes were not chosen for any particular reason, except that theteachers and their students agreed to be visited during their lessons. The analysis is based on the idea that school science involves differentways of meaning making and these are referred to as different language games. The analysis points out that school science involves featuresthat are not related to science itself, for example, students’ learning as well as their safety. The science classroom is consequently not anexample of a pure science language game but should be interpreted as a school science language game where students’ learning is a majorpurpose. Features of a school science language game that do not relate to the NOS, but, to students’ learning, I designate nature of schoolscience (NOSS) (Cf. Lundin, 2008). NOSS is not applicable in professional science practices. In a school science language game, theteacher needs to consider the students’ learning, their safety (cf. Lundin & Lindahl, 2005), and to ensure that the lesson is carried out inits allotted time etc. Such considerations are core elements in the NOSS. It is suggested that students’ discrimination of features referringto the NOSS and the NOS could facilitate classroom communication.</p

Fire Ecology Of Florida And The Southeastern Coastal Plain
No full textReviewing fossil evidence, Norida is home to many ecosystems and species that depend on frequent fire to exist. In this book, Reed Noss discusses the essential role of fire in generating biodiversity and offers best practices for using fire to keep the region\u27s ecosystems healthy and resilient. Reviewing fossil evidence, Noss shows that fire has been important to the Southeastern Coastal Plain for tens of millions of years. He explains how the region\u27s natural fire patterns are connected to its climate, high rate of lightning strikes, physical chemistry, and vegetation. But urbanization has recently reduced the frequency and range of these fires in profound ways. Noss believes the practice of controlled burns can and should be improved in order to protect fire-dependent species from extinction. Noss argues that fire managers should mimic the natural fire regimes of an area when conducting controlled burns. Based on what the species of the Southeast experienced during their evolutionary histories, he makes recommendations about pyrodiversity, how often and in what seasons to burn, the optimal heterogeneity of burns, mechanical treatments such as cutting and roller-chopping, and the proper use of fuel breaks. In doing so, Noss is the first to apply the new discipline of evolutionary fire ecology to a specific region. This book is a fascinating history of fire ecology in Florida, an enlightening look at why fire matters to the region, and a necessary resource for conservationists and fire managers in the state and surrounding areas
Therapy of human T-cell acute lymphoblastic leukaemia with a combination of anti-CD7 and anti-CD38-SAPORIN immunotoxins is significantly better than therapy with each individual immunotoxin
No full textSevere combined immunodeficient (SCID) mice injected i.v. with the human T-ALL cell line CCRF CEM (SCID-CEM mice) develop within 50 days life-threatening multi-organ growth of leukaemia cells. The development of leukaemia in SCID-CEM mice treated with three 10 mug i.v. doses of the anti-CD7 immunotoxin (IT) HB2-SAPORIN or the anti-CD38 IT OKT10-SAPORIN was significantly delayed compared with PBS sham-treated animals but 90% of animals treated with either IT eventually developed disseminated leukaemia cell growth. In contrast treatment of SCID-CEM mice with a combination of both ITs led not only to a significantly greater delay in time to leukaemia development but also in the numbers of animals remaining leukaemia free (60%). The native HB2 and OKT10 antibodies (both murine IgG1antibodies) exerted significant, though relatively weak therapeutic effects, probably mediated through an antibody-dependent cellular cytotoxicity (ADCC) mechanism. Moreover, there was no in vivo additivity of therapeutic effect when both antibodies were used in combination. Apparent, however, was that the combination of HB2-SAPORIN IT with OKT10 antibody led to an intermediate therapeutic effect that was significantly greater than that obtained when either was used alone but significantly less than that obtained when the two IT combination was utilized. This was similarly the case for the combination of OKT10-SAPORIN IT with HB2 antibody though the effect was less pronounced in this instance. This result suggests that the therapeutic effect of IT + antibody treatment results from an additivity between antibody-mediated delivery of saporin combined with a SCID mouse NK cell-mediated ADCC attack on the target cell directed through target cell bound antibody Fc engagement with Fc?RIII on the NK cell surface. The combination of both ITs however gave the best therapeutic outcome in SCID-CEM mice probably as the result of (i) delivery of greater amounts of saporin to target CEM cells positive for both CD7 and CD38, (ii) delivery of an effective dose of saporin to CEM cells downregulated or negative for one of the target antigens and (iii) through ADCC mechanisms that interact additively with IT action. We have previously proposed that combination IT therapy would be one means of overcoming the problem of heterogeneity of antigen expression within a global tumour cell population and these additional findings support this and provide a further strengthening of the rationale for employing cocktails of ITs for the treatment of human malignancies
NOSS/ALDCS analysis and system requirements definition
No full textThe results of system analyses and implementation studies of an advanced location and data collection system (ALDCS) , proposed for inclusion on the National Oceanic Satellite System (NOSS) spacecraft are reported. The system applies Doppler processing and radiofrequency interferometer position location technqiues both alone and in combination. Aspects analyzed include: the constraints imposed by random access to the system by platforms, the RF link parameters, geometric concepts of position and velocity estimation by the two techniques considered, and the effects of electrical measurement errors, spacecraft attitude errors, and geometric parameters on estimation accuracy. Hardware techniques and trade-offs for interferometric phase measurement, ambiguity resolution and calibration are considered. A combined Doppler-interferometer ALDCS intended to fulfill the NOSS data validation and oceanic research support mission is also described
