Jihad of the youth: Why first generation immigrant Muslim youths are drawn to the philosophy of Tariq Ramadan

Muslim children of immigrants raised in non-Muslim, Western societies face many issues in practicing their religion. While there are undoubtedly a multitude of sociological implications of this, this thesis focuses on their being caught in the middle of two cultures: (i) the culture practiced within their household which is generally a microcosm of their parents’ homeland; and (ii) that of the society in which they live (focusing on European nations and the United States). There is no doubt that these children must attempt to forge an identity that allows them to fully exist in both ‘worlds,’ if you will. However, Muslim youths face a unique problem in that Islam as it is literally practiced or interpreted by its adherents may not readily allow them to assimilate into non-Muslim societies. Tariq Ramadan, an Islamic modernist leader, advocates an Islam that allows for this assimilation. Muslim youths worldwide, without any formal Islamic education, generally tend to favor his interpretations of Islam over those of other Islamic modernist leaders. This thesis postulates that Tariq Ramadan uses ijtihad, or the concept of
Talking About Religion

This study builds on previous research regarding parent-child religious conversations to explore the transactional processes of these conversations. It employs qualitative analyses of interviews with highly religious parents and adolescents representing the Abrahamic faiths (Christianity, Judaism, Islam) from New England and Northern California. Variations in conversational processes are summarized in a conceptual model. Findings suggest that when parent-adolescent religious conversations are youth centered, the emotional experience is more positive for parents and adolescents than when they are parent centered. Parents from both traditional and progressive faith communities reported that they understood the value of transactional conversation processes over a more hierarchical, preachy, or parent-centered approach.
Knowledge management performance evaluation: a decade review from 1995 to 2004

In this paper, the development of knowledge management (KM) was surveyed, using a literature review and classification of articles from 1995 to 2004. With a keyword index and article abstract, we explored how KM performance evaluation has developed during this period. Based on a scope of 108 articles from 80 academic KM journals (retrieved from six online databases), we surveyed and classified methods of KM measurement, using the following eight categories: qualitative analysis, quantitative analysis, financial indicator analysis, non-financial indicator analysis, internal performance analysis, external performance analysis, project-orientated analysis and organizationorientated analysis, together with their measurement matrices for different research and problem domains. Future development directions for KM performance evaluation are presented in our discussion. They include: (1) KM performance measurements have tended towards expertise orientation, while evaluation development is a problemorientated domain; (2) different information technology methodologies, such as expert systems, knowledge-based systems and case-based reasoning may be able to evaluate KM as simply another methodology; (3) the ability to continually change and obtain new understanding is the driving power behind KM methodologies, and should be the basis of KM performance evaluations in the future.
Ease of Retrieval Effects in Persuasion: A Self-Validation Analysis

Three studies are reported examining a new explanation for ease of retrieval effects in persuasion. In each study, participants read a persuasive communication and were induced to generate either a low or high number of favorable or unfavorable thoughts in response. In conflict with the assumptions of most previous studies, the authors predicted and found that ease of retrieval effects occur primarily under high rather than low-elaboration conditions. Under high-elaboration conditions, people were more influenced by their thoughts when few rather than many were retrieved (ease of retrieval effect), and this was mediated by the confidence participants had in those thoughts. These findings are consistent with the self-validation hypothesis. Under low-elaboration conditions, participants based judgments more on the actual number of thoughts generated, reflecting a numerosity heuristic.
Validity Study of the Preschool Language Scale-4 With English-Speaking Hispanic and European American Children in Head Start Programs

The purpose of the study was to examine the psychometric properties of the Preschool Language Scale—4 (PLS-4) with a sample of English-speaking Hispanic and European American children who attended Head Start programs. Participants were 440 children between the ages of 3 and 5 years (52% male; 86% Hispanic and 14% European American). Participants were administered the PLS-4 and Peabody Picture Vocabulary Test—III (PPVT-III). The Auditory Comprehension and Expressive Communication subscales and Total Language scale scores for the PLS-4 in this sample had excellent reliability (Kuder Richardson—20s > .90). Validity evidence for the PLS-4 was present, with both subscales being positively correlated with PPVT-III scores. Agreement analysis between the PLS-4 and the PPVT-III indicated that the PLS-4 was less likely to identify a child as having a potential language delay than was the PPVT-III. The results largely support the validity of the PLS-4 for its intended purpose of assessing language skills with preschoolers.
DNA sequence analysis of a mouse pro alpha 1 (I) procollagen gene: evidence for a mouse B1 element within the gene

In a 3.8-kilobase mouse DNA sequence encoding amino acid sequences for the pro alpha 1(I) chain of type I procollagen, 14 coding sequences were identified which specify a sequence 95% homologous to amino acid residues 568 to 963 of the bovine alpha 1(I) chain. All of these coding sequences were flanked by appropriate splice junctions following the GT/AG rule. These observations suggest, but do not prove, that this pro alpha 1(I) gene is transcriptionally active. Of the 14 coding sequences, 7 were 54 base pairs in length, whereas the remainder were higher multiples of 54 base pairs. Nonrandom utilization of codons pertained throughout all of the coding sequences showing a preference (56%) for U in the wobble position. Two of the intervening sequences encoded imperfect vestiges of coding sequences which exhibited a codon preference different from that of the pro alpha 1(I) gene proper and were not flanked by splice junctions. One intervening sequence encoded a member of the mouse B1 family of middle repetitive sequences. It was flanked by 8-base-pair direct repeats and had a truncated A-rich region, suggesting that it may be a mobile element. Within this element were sequences which could function as a RNA polymerase III split promoter.
Nonoperative Treatment of Herniated Lumbar Intervertebral Disc with Radiculopathy: An Outcome Study

The functional outcome of patients with lumbar herniated nucleus pulposus without significant stenosis was analyzed in a retrospective cohort study. Inclusion criteria were as follows: 1) a chief complaint of leg pain, primarily; 2) a positive straight leg raising (SLR) at less than 60° reproducing the leg pain; 3) a computed tomography (CT) scan demonstrating a hemiated nucleus pulposus without significant stenosis by a radiologist's reading, which was also confirmed by the authors; 4) a positive electromyogram (EMG) demonstrating evidence of radiculopathy; and 5) response to a follow-up questionnaire. All patients had undergone an aggressive physical rehabilitation program consisting of back school and stabilization exercise training. Of a total of 347 consecutively identified patients, 64 patients with an average follow-up time of 31.1 months met the inclusion criteria and constituted the study population. They were sent questionnaires that inquired about activity level, pain level, work status, and further medical care. The patients with neurologic loss, extruded discs, and those seeking a second opinion regarding surgery were identified and subgrouped. Results for the total group included 90% good or excellent outcome with a 92% return to work rate. For the subgroups with extruded discs and second opinions, 87% and 83% had good or excellent outcomes, respectively, all (100%) of whom returned to work. Sick leave time for these subgroups was 2.9 months (±1.4 months) and 3.4 months (±1.7 months), respectively. These results compared favorably with previously published surgical studies. Four of six patients who required surgery were found to have stenosis at operation. There was no statistically significant difference in outcome in the patients with neurologic weakness or with extruded discs from the total study population. This study demonstrates that herniated nucleus pulposus of a lumbar intervertebral disc with radiculopathy can be treated very successfully with aggressive nonoperative care. Surgery should be reserved for those patients for whom function cannot be satisfactorily improved by a physical rehabilitation program. Failure to respond to nonoperative care should suggest the presence of stenosis.
HAEMOGLOBIN LEVELS IN THE D'ENTRECASTEAUX ISLANDS IN RELATION TO MALARIA AND NUTRITION

Grouped Frequency Table, Used jor First Survey, Slwwing Class Boundaries, Midmarks and Relatirmship to Standards on the Hcemoglobirwmeter' DURING the pre-spray surveys of the Papuan D'Entrecasteaux Islands carried out by the present writer during the years 1956 to 1959, malaria was found to be stable and highly endemic, the population in general sustaining infected anopheline bites of the order of one in every 1·5 nights. In spite of universally enlarged spleens and high parasite rates in infants and children, there was no obvious clinical entity which could be attributed definitively to malaria. This was very different from
Cooperative broadcasting

This paper shows that several transmitters operating in an additive white Gaussian noise environment can send at rates strictly dominating time-multiplex and frequency-multiplex rates by use of a superposition scheme that pools the time, bandwidth, and power allocations of the transmitters. This pooling can be achieved without cooperative action, except for agreement on the actual rate of transmission each transmitter will allow itself. The superposition scheme involves subtraction from the received signal of the estimated signals sent by the other transmitters, followed by decoding of the intended signal. This scheme has been shown to be optimal. We conclude that present methods of allocating different frequency bands to different transmitters are necessarily suboptimal.
Cattle physiology and the CO-Synch + CIDR synchronization program

proestrus. It was demonstrated that at a constant ovulatory follicle diameter, length of proestrus had a substantial influence on conception rate. Taken together, data from this series of studies suggested a strong positive relationship of duration of proestrus with follicle maturity and fertility and suggested that diameter of the ovulatory follicle, in itself, was not a consistent predictor of follicle maturity. The effect of ovulatory follicle diameter at GnRH-induced ovulation or at spontaneous ovulation on conception rate has also been evaluated. 12,16 It was reported that diameter of the ovulatory follicle influenced conception rate after detection of estrus in heifers, but not in postpartum cows. In postpartum cows that did not exhibit estrus, diameter of the ovulatory follicle was positively associated with conception rate when ovulation was induced with GnRH. Thus, if a ‘complete’ spontaneous proestrus occurred in cows (confirmed by exhibition of estrus), diameter did not impact fertility, but, diameter of the ovulatory follicle when ovulation was induced with GnRH did influence conception rate; at a constant duration of proestrus. Since findings suggested that maturity of the ovulatory follicle and probability of conception was perhaps defined by length of proestrus, we applied this knowledge towards optimizing the existing CO-Synch + CIDR program.
Barriers to the retention of older participants in political organisations: evidence from Spain

ABSTRACT It has been argued that older people's civic engagement has benefits for both individuals themselves and the community more broadly. Removing barriers to participation is, therefore, essential. However, the multi-dimensional nature of civic participation, as well as the different issues raised by recruitment and retention, complicate this. This study explores the barriers to retention of Spanish older people in political organisations, as one important type of participation that has received little attention in the literature to date. A total of 192 people aged 65 and over and actively engaged in three kinds of political organisation participated in this study. Participants answered an open-ended question regarding perceived barriers to continued involvement. Results show a range of reasons for potential future disengagement from political organisations. These barriers fit into three overarching categories related to changes in means, motives or the opportunity context for participation. Means-related barriers were by far the most frequently identified type of barrier. Both the type of organisation and some socio-demographic and participatory characteristics have an impact on the reasons respondents indicated they may potentially stop participating in future. Results suggest the necessity of a more nuanced and multi-faceted approach to understanding barriers to participation. Particularly, the development of retention strategies by political organisations should take into account the specific characteristics of the individuals and organisations they are targeting.
Consensus on surgical aspects of managing osteomyelitis in the diabetic foot

Background The aim of this study was to develop consensus statements that may help share or even establish ‘best practices’ in the surgical aspects of managing diabetic foot osteomyelitis (DFO) that can be applied in appropriate clinical situations pending the publication of more high-quality data. Methods We asked 14 panelists with expertise in DFO management to participate. Delphi methodology was used to develop consensus statements. First, a questionnaire elicited practices and beliefs concerning various aspects of the surgical management of DFO. Thereafter, we constructed 63 statements for analysis and, using a nine-point Likert scale, asked the panelists to indicate the extent to which they agreed or disagreed with the statements. We defined consensus as a mean score of greater than 7.0. Results The panelists reached consensus on 38 items after three rounds. Among these, seven provide guidance on initial diagnosis of DFO and selection of patients for surgical management. Another 15 statements provide guidance on specific aspects of operative management, including the timing of operations and the type of specimens to be obtained. Ten statements provide guidance on postoperative management, including wound closure and offloading, and six statements summarize the panelists’ agreement on general principles for surgical management of DFO. Conclusions Consensus statement on the perioperative management of DFO were formed with an expert panel comprised of a variety of surgical specialties. We believe these statements may serve as ‘best practice’ guidelines until properly performed studies provide more robust evidence to support or refute specific surgical management steps in DFO.
Peen treatment on a titanium implant: effect of roughness, osteoblast cell functions, and bonding with bone cement

Implant failure due to poor integration of the implant with the surrounding biomaterial is a common problem in various orthopedic and orthodontic surgeries. Implant fixation mostly depends upon the implant surface topography. Micron to nanosize circular-shaped groove architecture with adequate surface roughness can enhance the mechanical interlock and osseointegration of an implant with the host tissue and solve its poor fixation problem. Such groove architecture can be created on a titanium (Ti) alloy implant by laser peening treatment. Laser peening produces deep, residual compressive stresses in the surfaces of metal parts, delivering increased fatigue life and damage tolerance. The scientific novelty of this study is the controlled deposition of circular-shaped rough spot groove using laser peening technique and understanding the effect of the treatment techniques for improving the implant surface properties. The hypothesis of this study was that implant surface grooves created by controlled laser peen treatment can improve the mechanical and biological responses of the implant with the adjoining biomaterial. The objective of this study was to measure how the controlled laser-peened groove architecture on Ti influences its osteoblast cell functions and bonding strength with bone cement. This study determined the surface roughness and morphology of the peen-treated Ti. In addition, this study compared the osteoblast cell functions (adhesion, proliferation, and differentiation) between control and peen-treated Ti samples. Finally, this study measured the fracture strength between each kind of Ti samples and bone cement under static loading. This study found that laser peen treatment on Ti significantly changed the surface architecture of the Ti, which led to enhanced osteoblast cell adhesion and differentiation on Ti implants and fracture strength of Ti–bone cement interfaces compared with values of untreated Ti samples. Therefore, the laser peen treatment method has the potential to improve the biomechanical functions of Ti implants.
Arsenic Counteracts Human Immunodeficiency Virus Type 1 Restriction by Various TRIM5 Orthologues in a Cell Type-Dependent Manner

ABSTRACT Arsenic trioxide (As2O3) increased human immunodeficiency virus type 1 (HIV-1) infectivity when particular Homo sapiens and Cercopithecus aethiops cell lines were used as targets. Knockdown of human TRIM5α by RNA interference eliminated the As2O3 effect, demonstrating that the drug acts by modulating the activity of this retroviral restriction factor. In contrast, HIV-1 infectivity in target cell lines from other primate species (Cercopithecus tantalus, Macaca mulatta, and Aotus trivirgatus) was not increased by As2O3, despite the potent TRIM5-dependent HIV-1 restriction activity that these cells exhibit. To determine if As2O3 responsiveness is characteristic of particular TRIM5 orthologues and not others, TRIM5 cDNAs from these five primate species were transduced into cat fibroblasts, which lack endogenous HIV-1 restriction activity and, therefore, responsiveness to As2O3. In this context, the HIV-1 restriction activity conferred by all TRIM5 orthologues was largely eliminated by As2O3. The effect of As2O3 on HIV-1 restriction is thus shared by different TRIM5 orthologues but dependent on factors specific to the cell line in which TRIM5 is expressed.
Enhanced performance of AlOx-based organic thin-film transistors

The performance of thin-film transistors based on an aluminum oxide gate dielectric and a pentacene semiconductor have been systematically enhanced by modification of the oxide surface. The oxide layer was formed at room temperature using a standard anodization technique. The effects of surface modification of the oxide layer on device performance have been investigated. Higher mobility transistors were fabricated by passivating the oxide layer with a self-assembled molecular monolayer of an alkyl phosphonic acid or a spin-coated acrylic film. In both cases the normalized sub-threshold swing was reduced by a factor of 1.9 and 1.5, and the maximum charge-carrier mobility was increased by one and two orders of magnitudes respectively. The much increased mobility for transistors modified by a thin film of polymethylmethacrylate (PMMA) is attributed to the larger pentacene grain size.
MATCH-SALSA – Multi-scale Atmospheric Transport and CHemistry model coupled to the SALSA aerosol microphysics model – Part 1: Model description and evaluation

Abstract. We have implemented the sectional aerosol dynamics model SALSA (Sectional Aerosol module for Large Scale Applications) in the European-scale chemistry-transport model MATCH (Multi-scale Atmospheric Transport and Chemistry). The new model is called MATCH-SALSA. It includes aerosol microphysics, with several formulations for nucleation, wet scavenging and condensation. The model reproduces observed higher particle number concentration (PNC) in central Europe and lower concentrations in remote regions. The modeled PNC size distribution peak occurs at the same or smaller particle size as the observed peak at four measurement sites spread across Europe. Total PNC is underestimated at northern and central European sites and accumulation-mode PNC is underestimated at all investigated sites. The low nucleation rate coefficient used in this study is an important reason for the underestimation. On the other hand, the model performs well for particle mass (including secondary inorganic aerosol components), while elemental and organic carbon concentrations are underestimated at many of the sites. Further development is needed, primarily for treatment of secondary organic aerosol, in terms of biogenic emissions and chemical transformation. Updating the biogenic secondary organic aerosol (SOA) scheme will likely have a large impact on modeled PM2.5 and also affect the model performance for PNC through impacts on nucleation and condensation.
