Changes in the fine root proteome of Fagus sylvatica L. trees associated with P-deficiency and amelioration of P-deficiency
No full textPhosphorus is often the least available macronutrient in soil. Lack in phosphorus has detrimental effect on growth and biomass production of European Fagus sylvatica L., a major trees species in temperate forests. In contrast to leaf tissues, few studies have examined changes in the root system and no study has ever investigated the proteomic changes affected in beech roots by a lack in available phosphate (P). Here, we studied roots of young Fagus sylvatica L. trees in their native soils from two forests sites with contrasting availability of P: one P rich and P poor soil. To understand also the response to P fertilization, the trees were fertilized with triple superphosphate and the proteome of fine roots of all conditions was compared. Gel-free mass-spectrometry-based shotgun proteomics revealed that the proteome was differentially affected by diverging P availabilities. The proteomic changes that took place as the result of P fertilization were dependent on the supply level of P before the fertilization. When P was supplied to the P-rich soil proteins related to cell biogenesis exhibited increased abundances. Addition of P to soil that was strongly limited in P resulted in increased abundance of proteins associated with amino acid metabolism and transport.sponsorship: The authors are grateful to M.

Jack Alive / Martin Dead : The Location of the "Author" in Jack London\u27s Martin Eden
No full textThis essay is an attempt to read Martin Eden, Jack Londonʼs autobiographical novel, in terms of the inextricable relationship between the author and the protagonist. Critics have often taken the unbalanced plot and the lack of ironic distance between narrator and character in Martin Eden as the technical weakness of London, but this paper argues that the achievement of this novel owes a great deal to the attachment of London to Martin. The unbalanced structure is a necessary product of the severe struggle of the author to kill his romantic alter ego. // Martin, who aspires to win Ruth Morse, tries to cross class boundaries by making a career of a writer. Even after realizing the emptiness of Ruth, who turns out to be nothing but a typical figure of the bourgeoisie, he somehow persists in loving her. The notion underlying here is that, for Martin, love, career and art are fundamentally inseparable. He objects to the aestheteʼs view of Brissenden on account of his separation of art from career. Martinʼs identity and life consist only in the triunity of love/career/art; the alternative is the repudiation of life. Thus, the unnatural delay of his disappointment in love can be regarded as Londonʼs strategy to set the suicide of Martin as the necessary consequence of the story. // By finishing the story and killing Martin, London finally detaches himself from Martin, reconstructs his self, and, unlike Martin, survives as a professional writer. In this sense, Martin Eden is a story about “writerʼs self-reconstruction.

Experiences Using Large Scale Video Walls for Distance Education
No full textWe describe our experiences building and using the Rutgers Videowall, a low-cost telepresence system that has been used teaching 15 courses and colloquia. By relaxing typical spatial telepresence features, such as background continuity, we greatly reduced costs and gained flexibility in the rooms it could be deployed in. The lower costs and room flexibility enabled academic departments to use the wall, in contrast to traditional telepresence systems which remained inaccessible. We found that the Videowall’s spatial distortions did not have a significant impact on useability, as our initial survey results show that students had an overall positive experience.Technical report DCS-tr-72

Interview with Father James Martin
No full textIn May 2011, the Ignatian Faculty Scholars at Regis University conducted a Skype interview with Father James Martin, S. J., author of The Jesuit Guide to Almost Everything. The Scholars had used Father Martin’s book as a text for their year of study, which focused on Ignatian Spirituality, the Ignatian Pedagogical Paradigm, and teaching and learning at a Jesuit university. The interview was transcribed and is printed below. Father Martin reflects on the book, and responds to questions about the book itself, about finding God in all learners, and about the Church
