Berlin, New York: Mouton de Gruyter; 2012.This is the first comprehensive description of Savosavo, a non-Austronesian (Papuan) language spoken by approximately 2,500 speakers on Savo Island, Solomon Islands. Based on primary field data recorded by the author, it provides an overview of all levels of grammar. In addition, a full chapter is dedicated to nominalization of verbs by means of one particular suffix, which occur in a number of constructions ranging from lexical to syntactic nominalization. The appendix provides glossed example texts and a list of lexemes

The quartz crystal microbalance as a novel means to study cell-substrate interactions in situ.
No full textThe quartz crystal microbalance (QCM) was first introduced as a mass sensor in gas phase and in vacuum. Since oscillator circuits capable of exciting shear vibrations of quartz resonators under liquid loading have been developed, the QCM became accepted as a new, powerful technique to follow adsorption processes at solid-liquid interfaces in chemical and biological research. Lately, the QCM technique has attracted considerable interest as a novel means to monitor cell-substrate interactions of mammalian cells in vitro. Because the establishment and modulation of cell-substrate contacts is important for many physiological processes, and potent techniques to measure these interactions noninvasively are rare, the present review highlights applications of the QCM technique in this field. The suitability of the QCM device to monitor attachment and spreading of mammalian cells in real time has been well established. The QCM response is dependent on the individual cell type that is examined. In order to identify the sources for these cell-type-specific results of QCM readings, and to understand the information content of the signal, attempts have been made to decompose the overall QCM response into subcellular contributions. The aforementioned subjects, together with a condensed introduction into the QCM technology, are included in this article
Homonoia - Concorda - Sammanasya
No full textAnalysis of the divine figures of Homónoia in the Greek pantheon, Concordia in the Roman pantheon, and Sammanasya in the Vedic pantheon. Claudia Santi is the author of Homónoia; Andrzej Gillmeister is the author of Concordia; Antonio Salvati is the author of Sammanasya. As regards Homónoia, the origin of this personified abstraction seems to be traced back to the political debate of Athens in the last 5th century. Maybe it was created by Antiphon as opposed to stásis, both in the meaning of ‘psychic conflict’ and ‘internal political dissensions, civil war’
