A previously unreported bacterial disease on chili pepper (Capsicum annuum L.) seedlings affecting as many as 4% of seedlings was observed in greenhouses in Chihuahua, Mexico (Delicias and Meoqui counties). Initial lesions appeared as irregular small spots on leaves and brown necrosis at margins tips were observed. Later, the spots became necrotic with a chlorotic halo. Advanced disease was associated with defoliation. A Gram negative, rod-shaped bacterium was isolated from diseased chili pepper seedlings. Three inoculation methods revealed that isolated strains produce foliage symptoms, similar to those observed in naturally infected seedlings. Pathogenic strains that caused symptoms in inoculated seedlings were re-isolated and identified to fulfill koch's postulate. Polyphasic approaches for identification including biochemical assays (API 20E and 50CH), carbon source utilization profiling (Biolog) and 16S rDNA, hsp60 and rpoB sequence analysis were done. Enterobacter cloacae was identified as the causal agent of this outbreak on chili pepper seedlings.

The presence of radix entomolaris (RE) in a mandibular first molar is a common occurrence in certain ethnic groups, but the presence of RE in a mandibular second molar is a rare occurrence. In the present case, RE was identified from preoperative radiographs and confirmed using cone-beam computed tomography (CBCT). The access cavity was modified to locate the RE. Cleaning and shaping were performed with nickel-titanium rotary instruments. Obturation was completed with gutta-percha cones using AH Plus (Dentsply Detrey GmbH) as sealer. From the CBCT axial images, the RE was determined to have a Type III curvature by the De Moor classification, Type B separate RE by the Carlsen and Alexandersen classification, and radiographically, a Type i image by the Wang classification. The presence of RE in the mandibular second molar makes it essential to anticipate and treat the distolingual root canal. This case report highlights the usefulness of CBCT for assessing RE in the mandibular second molar, which can help the clinician in making a confirmatory diagnosis and assessing the morphology of the root canal.

Sustainability in fashion cannot ignore fashion attributes required for the design of rapidly changing and innovative products. This study examines "Re-Birth Design" development and provides a means to apply academic and industry perspectives to the investigation of Re-Birth fashion product development. This study defines "Re-Birth Design" as stock that has been designed and launched through distribution channels, subsequently returned unused, then improved and reborn into a new product for redistribution. This study analyzed specific cases. We selected 100 designs for Re-Birth from 11 brands of "K" fashion company in Korea, to be successfully sold in 2014. These cases are used in the analysis and are categorized into design types. As a result of the analysis, "Re-Birth Design" had five levels: Level 1. Changes in supplementary materials such as adding or removing decoration, Level 2. Changes in patterns or materials (changes within the product), Level 3. Partial changes in design (leading to a new design), Level 4. Complete deconstruction and rebirth of the design, and Level 5. Complete deconstruction followed by the use of the design source for a new product that is not a garment. This study analyzed products owned by brands, as well as successful cases of Re-Birth designs that reused existing resources, reduced energy consumption, and increased environmental and economic efficiency by recreating new products that could be resold.

Background: As of now, the impact of low back pain (LBP) and its chronic state, chronic low back pain (CLBP), on mental health-related quality of life (HRQOL) has never been investigated among police officers. The present investigation aims at studying this relationship using a biopsychosocial model. Methods: Between May and October 2014, a Web-based cross-sectional study was conducted among Quebec police officers (Quebec, Canada). Mental HRQOL was measured using the role emotional (RE) and the mental health (MH) domains of the SF-12v2 Health Survey. The impact of CLBP on mental HRQOL (as opposed to acute/subacute LBP or no LBP) was studied with a multivariate linear regression model. Results: Of the 3,589 police officers who participated in the study, 1,013 (28.4%) reported CLBP. The mean age of respondents was $38.5{\pm}8.7years$, and 32.0% were females. The RE (44.1/100) and MH (49.0/100) mean scores of the CLBP group were comparable with the scores found in populations suffering from cancer or heart diseases. Compared to officers without LBP, the presence of CLBP was significantly associated with lower RE (${\beta}$: -0.068; p = 0.003) and MH (${\beta}$: -0.062; p = 0.002) scores. These relationships were not found in the acute/subacute LBP group. Conclusion: Our results underscore how frequent CLBP is among police officers and how burdensome it is. Considering the importance of good physical and mental health for this occupational population, police organizations should be aware of this issue and contribute to the efforts toward CLBP prevention and management in the workplace.

An efficient and general numerical strategy for fluid-structure interaction problems is presented where either the fluid or the structure part are represented by nonlinear models. This partitioned strategy is implemented under the form of code coupling that allows to (re)-use previous made developments in a more general multi-physics context. This strategy and its numerical implementation is verified on classical fluid-structure interaction benchmarks, and then applied to the impact of tsunamis waves on submerged structures.

This paper proposes a meta modeling technique which permits to describe a KBS according to three axis: the object of reuse axis, the levels of granularity axis and the reuse process axis. The object of reuse axis allows to see a KBS as a set of inter-related components for reuse purposes. The levels of granularity axis allows to describe the KBS components according to different levels of granularity for clarity and reuse purposes. The reuse process axis allows to see the KBS components as (re)usable components.

We have exmained the re-establishment of HIMRE mediated silencing function on the transcriptional activity of yeast heast shock gene HSP82. To test whether the onset of SIR repression can occur in growing cells in the rpesence of a potent inhibitor of DNA replication, HMRa/HSP82 strains with SIR4- and SIR4S$^{+}$ genetic backgrounds were arrested in S phase by incubation of a culture in 200 mM hydroxyurea for 120 min. It was clear that following a 20 minute heat shock, silencing of the HMRa/HSP82 allele in cells pretreated with hydroxyurea does occur in a SIR4-dependen fashion, even though the kinetics of repression appears to be substantially delayed. We also have tested whether re- establishement of silencing at the HMR/hsp82 locus can occur in G1-arrested cells. Cell cycle arrest at G1 phase was achieved by treatment of early log a cell cultures with .alpha.-factor mating pheromone, which induces G1 arrest. The result suggests that passage through S phase (and therefore DNA replication) is nor required for re-establishing silencer-mediated repression at the HMNRa/HSP82 locus. Finally, to test whether de nono protein synthesis is required for re-establishment of silencer-mediated repression, cells were pretreated with cycloheximide (500 /.mu.g/ml) 120 min. It was apparent that inhibiting protein synthesis delays, but does not prevent, re-establishment of silencer-mediated repression. Altogether, these results indicate that re-establishment of silencer-mediated repression is not dependent on the DNA replication and has no requirement for protein synthesis.s.

PCB Power-Bus (comprising power/ground planes) impedance and fields are evaluated by an efficient series expansion method that is suggested in this paper. It is used to investigate the structure's radiated emission(RE) levels and find acceptable ways of loading the power/ground planes such as decoupling capcitor(DeCap)s, balanced feeding and slits, in order to reduce the interferences. Also, the calculations and measurements of a proposed geometry are verified by vector fitting as a analysis model to check the behavior of the slit.

본 연구의 목적은 토미즘에 있어서 '인간적 행위'가 가지는 '자기초월의 성격'을 조명하는 데에 있다. 토미즘에 있어서 이성과 의지를 가진 인간의 본성은 궁극적인 목적에로 지향성을 가진 것이며, 따라서 '인간의 행위'가 아닌 '인간적 행위'란 이러한 본성에 적합한 행위를 말하며, 현재의 상태보다 더 낳은 상태를 지향하는 '자기초월'을 성격을 가지는 것이다. 물론 이러한 자기초월적 성격을 본질적으로 가지게 되는 인간적 행위의 근거는 인간의 형상인 이성혼(理性魂)이 '자립적인 형상'이라는 데에 있다. 토마스 아퀴나스에게 있어서 이러한 인간적 행위의 자기초월의 성격은 크게 세 가지 단계를 거친다고 볼 수 있는데, (1)자연적 진보의 질서 안에서의 초월, (2)도덕적 질서 안에서의 자기초월 그리고 (3)종교적 삶에 있어서 자기초월이 그것이다. 자연적 진보에서는 우선적으로 이성적 영혼의 특성에서 드러나는데, 아퀴나스는 인간의 이성적인 덕을 '나약함 안에서의 충만함'이라고 규정하는데, 이는 이성적인 덕이란 '외적 감각능력들의 목적지($finalit{\acute{e}}$)'로서 고려하기 때문이다. 외적 감각을 통해서 인간은 '감각적 상(especies sensibilis)'들을 수용하며, 이미지들을 보존하고, 이 이미지들은 기억 혹은 추억이라는 형태로 그의 실존의 일부가 되며, 자기의식을 의미하는 정신적인 실재가 되는 것이다. 따라서 토마스에게 있어서 이성의 덕은 단순히 사변적인 능력이 아니라, '되어짐'의 질서, 충만함의 질서 안에 있는 것이다. 바로 이 때문에 토마스는 이성(ratio)의 능력을 '생성(generatio)'에 비유하고 있으며, 지성(intellectus)을 존재(esse)에 비유하고 있는 것이다. 즉 이성은 감각을 초월하고, 지성은 이성을 초월하는 것이다. 도덕적 질서 안에서의 자기초월은 의식의 진보와 관련되어 있는데, 인간의 의식은 언제나 이중적인데, 일차적으로 외부대상에 대한 인식이요, 이차적으로 이러한 외부대상에 대한 인식의 결과라 할 수 있는 자기의식(contientia)이다. 즉 이러한 외부대상에 대한 인식은 근본적으로 자기의식 혹은 자기인식을 목적으로 하며, 자기인식에서 완성된다. 자기의식은 '자기동일성'에 대한 의식을 말하는데, 여기서 인간의 특유한 도덕적 행위가 발생한다. 즉 당위 혹은 의무라는 것은 언제나 '자기동일성'에 대한 적합성을 의미하는 것이며, 이러한 행위가 지속적일 때, 도덕적 삶이 발생하는 것이다. 도덕적 삶이 그 자체 초월적인 성격을 가지는 것은 '자기동일성'에 적합한 인간적 행위란 언제나 '보다 나은 것' 보다 '이상적인 삶'을 지향하기 때문이다. 종교적 삶에 있어서 토미즘의 특성을 보다 잘 부각하기 위해서 본 논문에서는 키엘케고올의 종교적 삶에 대한 초월성을 우선적으로 고찰하고 있는데, 그에 의하면 종교적 삶에 있어서 초월적 성격은 '절대적 차원의 초월'로서 근본적으로 합리적으로 기술되거나 표현될 수 있는 모든 문화적인 인간적인 지평을 넘어서는 '초월' 즉 '절대적 초월($d{\acute{e}}passement$ absolu)을 의미하는 것이다. 반면 아퀴나스에게 있어서 신과 인간 사이의 '친근성($affinit{\acute{e}}$)'은 수용된 덕들(virtutes infusas)이 있는 곳에는 반드시 일종의 종교적인 초월이 수반된다. '가능태'중에 있는 하나의 (수용된)덕이 '현실태'가 되는 곳에는 반드시 '자기초월'의 행위가 수반되는 것이다. 왜냐하면 이러한 수용된 덕의 국면은 신과 인간 사이의 소통을 말해주고 있기 때문이며, 이는 곧 '인간적인 것'에서 '신성한 것'에로의 초월을 암시하고 있기 때문이다. 이러한 아퀴나스의 사유는 구체적이고 개별적인 한 인간의 종교적인 삶 안에서 '자기초월'이 이루어지는 곳에는 언제나 신의 섭리가 개입하고 있다는 실재론적인 사유를 가능하게 하고 있는 것이다.
