Steinernema everestense n. sp. (Rhabditida: Steinernematidae), a new species of entomopathogenic nematode from Pakhribas, Dhankuta, Nepal
Authors: Manandhar Hira Kaji , Waeyenberge Lieven , Moens Maurice , Khatri-Chhetri Hari Bahadur , Spiridonov Sergei 
Published: April 2011

AbstractA new species of entomopathogenic nematode, Steinernema everestense n. sp., was recovered from soil samples collected from Pakhribas, Dhankuta district of Nepal, during a survey in 2007. The analysis of ITS-rDNA and D2D3 LSU sequences placed S. everestense n. sp. in the feltiae-kraussei-oregonense group. The nematode can be separated from other described species of Steinernema by morphological and morphometric characteristics and by characterisations and phylogeny inferred from DNA sequences of the D2D3 LSU or ITS regions of rDNA. For infective juveniles, the new species can be recognised by the body length of 775 (705-838) μm, pharynx 119 (110-130) μm long, H% = 61 (47-68) and E% = 78 (60-89). The lateral field pattern is 2, 8, 6, 4, 3. The males have well curved, brownish-yellow spicules with a prominent but short velum, gubernaculum plump, boat-shaped to almost straight in lateral view, cuneus long, needle-shaped, corpus with two wings in ventral view. Spicule and gubernaculum length of the first generation males is 79 (65-87) μm and 50 (39-57) μm, respectively. A tail mucron is present in both male generations. Genital papillae total 23 or 25, comprising 11 or 12 pairs and a single midventral papilla. Specimens with 23 genital papillae have eight precloacal pairs (seven pairs subventral and one pair lateral), two pairs subterminal and one pair subdorsal. The most posterior two pairs are consistently located near the tail tip. The specimens with 25 genital papillae have an extra adcloacal pair of papillae and the anteriormost two pairs are close together. The vulva is slightly protruding, mostly with equal lips, and low epiptygmata. A post-anal swelling is developed in most first and all second generation females.
Decline of Pratylenchus coffeae and Radopholus arabocoffeae populations after death and removal of 5-year-old arabica coffee (Coffea arabica cv. Catimor) trees

AbstractThe decline of populations of the plant-parasitic nematodes Radopholus arabocoffeae and Pratylenchus coffeae was studied after the death and removal of severely damaged coffee plants (Coffea arabica cv. Catimor) in a field naturally infested with both nematodes. Soil samples were taken at monthly intervals up to a depth of 70 cm and divided into 10 cm segments from which nematodes were extracted. The numbers of R. arabocoffeae and P. coffeae in soil and in root fragments were determined. Both species were found up to 70 cm depth. Densities of R. arabocoffeae and P. coffeae populations declined exponentially over time in all soil layers. No nematodes were found in soil and root fragments 10 and 11 months after removal of the infected coffee plants for R. arabocoffeae and P. coffeae, respectively. Arabica coffee seedlings were planted in soil collected from the experimental plots after these time periods. The seedlings were grown for 3 months in a glasshouse and then roots and soil were analysed for presence of both nematode species. No R. arabocoffeae and P. coffeae were found, confirming that the population in the field had completely declined. The results of this experiment demonstrate that a replant of coffee is possible 1 year after removal of infected plants from a plantation without any further (chemical) control measures.
Morphological and molecular characterisation of Caloosia longicaudata (Loos, 1948) Siddiqi & Goodey, 1963 (Nematoda: Caloosiidae) from Maui, the Hawaiian Islands with notes on some species of the genus
Authors: van den Berg Esther , Subbotin Sergei , Tiedt Louwrens 
Published: April 2011

AbstractCaloosia longicaudata is described from Maui, the Hawaiian Islands, for the first time and both sexes are characterised morphologically using light and scanning electron microscopy. Molecular characterisation of C. longicaudata using the D2-D3 domain of 28S rRNA, partial 18S rRNA and ITS rRNA gene sequences is also provided. The phylogenetic relationships of this species with other representatives of the suborder Criconematina are presented and discussed. A diagnostic PCR-ITS-RFLP profile for C. longicaudata is given together with an identification table for eight species of Caloosia. Caloosia langola n. comb. is transferred to the genus and C. shorai is synonymised with H. psidii.
For EveryManc a Religion: Biblical and Religious Language in the Manchester Music Scene, 1976-1994
Authors: Crossley James 
Published: April 2011

Abstract1976-1994 marks a distinctive period in Mancunian popular music history. During this period, biblical language was used extensively. However, such use is markedly different at the beginning and end of our period. At the beginning, biblical language was used in the name of dark introspection, cynical observation, nihilism and pessimism; by the end, such language was largely being used in the name of self-congratulation, self-importance, hedonism, and (largely misguided) optimism. Social, cultural, economic and biographical reasons are given for this shift.
The Biblical Man in Black: Paul in Johnny Cash/Johnny Cash in Paul
Authors: Twomey Jay 
Published: April 2011

AbstractJohnny Cash was well known as a singer and songwriter, of course, but he also wrote a historical novel about Paul. This paper takes that novel, and the biblical studies research Cash drew upon in writing it, as a point of departure for a reading of Cash's music as evidence of the singer-turned-novelist's lyrical Paulinism. It surveys some available reception methodologies, especially those relevant to a study of the Bible in popular music, and then explores Cash's lyrical oeuvre for actual quotations from, or even potential traces or echoes of, Paul. Toward the end the paper 'reverses the hermeneutical flow' by reading Paul in terms of Cash's early hit "I Walk the Line."
Phenomenological Psychology: A Brief History and Its Challenges
Authors: Giorgi Amedeo 
Published: April 2011

AbstractThe phenomenology-psychology dialogue has been taking place for over 100 years now and it is still not clear how the two disciplines relate to each other. Part of the problem is that both disciplines have developed complexly with competing, not easily integratable perspectives. In this article the Husserlian phenomenological perspective is adopted and Husserl’s understanding of how phenomenology can help psychology is clarified. Then the usage of phenomenology within the historical scientific tradition of psychology is examined to see the senses of phenomenology that were employed in that tradition. The German literature of psychology between the founding of the discipline and the beginning of the Nazi regime indicates quite clearly that the phenomenological perspective was part of the mainstream psychology of that era. The article ends by listing four difficult challenges that have to be met if a viable psychology based upon Husserlian phenomenology is to be possible.
Autoethnography and Existentialism: The Conceptual Contributions of Viktor Frankl
Authors: Esping Amber 
Published: April 2011

AbstractThe author introduces the existential psychology of the Austrian psychiatrist and Holocaust survivor Viktor Frankl (1905‐1997). The article describes several theoretical ideas and perceptual metaphors derived from Frankl’s scholarship that make it useful as a philosophical and historical underpinning for the practice of autoethnography. Frankl asserted that each individual’s disposition (natural talents and limitations), situation (external circumstances), and position (freely chosen attitude toward disposition and situation) work together to create a uniquely valuable and incommutable individual perspective. This incommutability suggests that the value of autoethnographic social science is based on the opportunities derived from the particular, not the general. Frankl’s work also demonstrates that transsubjectivity is best facilitated when several autoethnographers take advantage of their unique combinations of disposition, situation and position rather than when a single autoethnographer tries to move into multiple positions simultaneously. Psychologists who publish autoethnography may find Frankl’s ideas and metaphors useful for conceptualizing and defending their own scholarship.
The Experience of Self-Discovery and Mental Change in Female Novice Athletes in Connection to Marathon Running
Authors: Giorgi Barbro , Boudreau Alison L. 
Published: April 2011

AbstractThis article evaluates the experience of an extraordinary mental change of novice female runners that is connected to long-distance running. Two female participants were interviewed regarding their life-changing experience associated with endurance exercise. Descriptions of the lived experience from women who train for marathons were gathered and a phenomenological analysis of the data was conducted which suggests that the women underwent a mental change that improved their self-confidence and enhanced relationships with their selves and others. The six constituents that emerged were: Participants Perception of an Enhancing Outdoor Environment, Life-Style Changes Resulting in More Openness to Others and Self, Discoveries Concerning Self-Improvements, Sustaining a Desired Mental Disposition, Empowerment in Considering New Possibilities, and Support for Encountering Future Challenges. This article demonstrates how a mental change associated with long-distance running positively impacts participants’ personal and professional lives.
Rorty or Kierkegaard: Social Amelioration, Truth and the Ground of Cornel West’s Normative Commitments
Authors: Libby Christopher J. 
Published: April 2011

AbstractThis article examines the work of Cornel West as a resource for public theology. Inspired by the prophetic biblical tradition, he seeks to uphold ethical commitments to social amelioration in order to ‘let suffering speak’. However, uncertainty about the capacity of his work to serve in this way is rooted in questions about the competing sources grounding his thought. When evincing the influence of Richard Rorty’s neo-pragmatism he fails to give expression to a realist account of truth. Yet such an account is necessary to uphold a robust commitment to amelioration. His work is on surer ground and serves better as a resource for public theology when it gives expression to a Kierkegaardian realism. Such a position, which affirms the socially mediated nature of truth claims while upholding their aspiration to refer to reality, solicits a ‘renunciative’ understanding of theology that is open to social suffering and seeks its amelioration.
Plotinus on the Making of Matter Part I: The Identity of Darkness
Authors: O’Brien Denis 
Published: April 2011

AbstractDoes the matter of the sensible world, for Plotinus as for Plato and Aristotle, exist without a cause of its existence? Long divided on the answer to that question, scholarly opinion now veers in favour of a derivation of matter from principles prior to matter, with disagreement limited to the details of the theory. What exactly is implied by the various passages of the Enneads where Plotinus writes of soul or physis in relation to ‘darkness’ and ‘non-being’, matter and form? In the pages that follow, I argue that the soul’s ‘making’ of a ‘non-being’ that by implication is matter, in Enn. III 9 [13] 3, is logically antecedent to the ‘making’ of ‘visible form’ ascribed to physis in Enn. III 8 [30] 2. A detailed study of the context and the syntax of the latter passage shows that, contrary to an interpretation put forward recently in this Journal, the two ‘makings’ cannot be the same.
Religious Change in Mexico: Perspectives from Recent Data
Authors: Navarro Carlos Garma 
Published: April 2011

AbstractAccording to the 2000 Mexican Census, change to non-Catholic religions has actually slowed at the national level in Mexico, and the evidence appears to suggest that the efforts of the Catholic Church to stem the loss of followers to Protestant Pentecostal groups has had a certain amount of success in retaining believers. However, when scrutinized more closely, these results are open to a more varied interpretation. There remain important regional and social differences in the distribution of religious affiliation in the country, and predominately indigenous communities are still converting to non-Catholic religions at a strong rate. This is especially true in the southern state of Chiapas where Catholics are now a minority in various municípios (municipalities) with indigenous-majority populations. In this article, I consider what these differences mean and how they can be explained within the context of religious change in Mexico. Le recensement de la population mexicaine de l'année 2000 indique que le taux de conversion vers des religions non-catholiques a ralenti au niveau national, et les chiffres semblent indiquer que les efforts de l'église catholique pour endiguer la perte de croyants en faveur des églises pentecôtistes ont eu un certain effet. Toutefois, si on les regarde de plus près, ces résultats peuvent donner lieu à des interprétations plus variées et nuancées. Il reste en effet des différences régionales et sociales importantes dans la distribution des affiliations religieuses dans le pays, et des communautés principalement indigènes continuent à se convertir aux religions non-catholiques à un rythme élevé. Ceci est particulièrement vrai dans les états du sud du Chiapas où les catholiques sont devenus minoritaires dans différentes municipalités à population majoritairement indigène. Cet article considère la signification de ces différences et s'attache à les expliquer dans un contexte de transformation religieuse au Mexique.
Recognition of Photoresponsive Polymer Targets by Protein Fused with cis-Form Azobenzene-binding Peptide
Authors: Chen Jing , Serizawa Takeshi , Komiyama Makoto 
Published: April 2011

Abstract
The Trp–His–Thr–Leu–Pro–Asn–Ala sequence, which preferentially recognizes cis-form azobenzene groups of synthetic polymers, was fused to the N-terminus of green fluorescent protein. Quartz crystal microbalance measurements were used to investigate its absorption behavior on the polymer film surfaces. The results indicated that the peptide succeeded in immobilizing the fused protein onto the film surfaces containing cis-form azobenzene groups.
Iron-catalyzed Pinacol Coupling of Aryl Ketones with a Phenyltitanium Reagent: A New Type of Catalytic Reaction
Authors: Hayashi Tamio , Sasaki Keigo 
Published: April 2011

Abstract
A reaction of aryl ketones with phenyltitanium triisopropoxide ([PhTi(Oi-Pr)3]) in the presence of [Fe(acac)3] as a catalyst (1 mol %) gave the corresponding pinacols in high yields. The catalytic cycle of this process involves an iron-catalyzed disproportionation of [PhTi(Oi-Pr)3] into biphenyl and a low-valent titanium species.
Angiotensin I-converting enzyme (ACE) activity and expression in rat central nervous system after sleep deprivation
Authors: Visniauskas Bruna , Oliveira Vitor , Carmona Adriana K. , D’Almeida Vânia , de Melo Robson L. , Tufik Sérgio , Chagas Jair R. 
Published: April 2011

Abstract
Proteases are essential either for the release of neuropeptides from active or inactive proteins or for their inactivation. Neuropeptides have a fundamental role in sleep-wake cycle regulation and their actions are also likely to be regulated by proteolytic processing. Using fluorescence resonance energy transfer substrates, specific protease inhibitors and real-time PCR we demonstrate changes in angiotensin I-converting enzyme (ACE) expression and proteolytic activity in the central nervous system in an animal model of paradoxical sleep deprivation during 96 h (PSD). Male rats were distributed into five groups (PSD, 24 h, 48 h and 96 h of sleep recovery after PSD and control). ACE activity and mRNA levels were measured in hypothalamus, hippocampus, brainstem, cerebral cortex and striatum tissue extracts. In the hypothalamus, the significant decrease in activity and mRNA levels, after PSD, was only totally reversed after 96 h of sleep recovery. In the brainstem and hippocampus, although significant, changes in mRNA do not parallel changes in ACE specific activity. Changes in ACE activity could affect angiotensin II generation, angiotensin 1–7, bradykinin and opioid peptides metabolism. ACE expression and activity modifications are likely related to some of the physiological changes (cardiovascular, stress, cognition, metabolism function, water and energy balance) observed during and after sleep deprivation.
Rhabdomyolysis-induced acute renal failure due to itraconazole and simvastatin association
Authors: Roques Sébastien , Lytrivi Maria , Rusu Daniel , Devriendt Jacques , De Bels David 
Published: April 2011

Abstract
We present the case of an 82-year-old man admitted to our hospital for muscle weakness. He was under simvastatin 20 mg per day and was given pulse itraconazole therapy 8 days before the onset of symptoms for onychomycosis. He developed severe rhabdomyolysis inducing an acute renal failure necessitating renal replacement therapy. He eventually fully recovered. Given the possible concurrent use of simvastatin and itraconazole, awareness of this potential interaction is clinically important.
Resolutions and their incongruities: Further thoughts on Logical Mechanisms
Authors: Hempelmann Christian F. , Attardo Salvatore 
Published: April 2011

AbstractThis paper is a contribution to the study of the resolution of incongruities in humor. We reject some criticisms of logical mechanisms and analyze three different types of incongruities in humorous texts: completely backgrounded, backgrounded, and foregrounded. Only the latter are addressed by logical mechanisms. We identify a mechanism of “incongruity shifting” which may be a candidate for “deep” logical mechanism (along the lines of “parallelism” in Attardo et al. HUMOR: International Journal of Humor Research 15: 1–44, 2002). We finally discuss the similarities between Oring's (Engaging humor, University of Illinois Press, 2003) “appropriate incongruity” theory and our approach, which lead us to the conclusion that all resolution of incongruity in jokes is partial.
Wordplay in church marquees
Authors: Bell Nancy D. , Crossley Scott , Hempelmann Christian F. 
Published: April 2011

AbstractDespite research demonstrating a certain degree of incompatibility between humor and religion, church marquees in the United States frequently use humor, and especially puns, as a way of advertising religious messages. Is the wordplay found in this context different from wordplay in general? Our comparison of the puns found on church billboards versus those found in a general corpus of puns reveals significant differences in structure and content, suggesting that these puns represent a specific type of humor. The discussion outlines possible reasons for these differences, with a focus on social context.
Parsing the joke: The General Theory of Verbal Humor and appropriate incongruity
Authors: Oring Elliott 
Published: April 2011

AbstractFor more than a quarter of a century, the Semantic Script Theory of Humor (SSTH) and its successor, the General Theory of Verbal Humor (GTVH), have been employed to characterize the factors that define a joke, to describe the components of jokes and their interrelationships, and to provide a model for the analysis of joke texts. But these theories have never been adequately scrutinized. When approached from the perspective of
Timing in the performance of jokes
Authors: Attardo Salvatore , Pickering Lucy 
Published: April 2011

AbstractThe notion of timing in humor is often mentioned as a very significant issue, and yet very little has been written about it. The paper reviews the scant literature on the subject and narrows down the definition of timing as comprising pauses and speech rate. The discussions of timing in the literature see it either as a speeding up or slowing down of speech rate. Using data collected from twenty joke performances, we show that speakers do not significantly raise or lower their speech rate at and around the punch line. The other common assumption is that punch lines are preceded by pauses. Our data show no evidence supporting this claim nor do they show differences concerning these parameters in jokes that involved punch lines in reported speech and those that did not. Similarly, we found no differences between prepared and spontaneous jokes. Therefore, our data lead us to conclude that the theory of timing in joke performance is in serious need of further research.
Overweight and Obesity in Childhood and Risk of Mental Disorder: a 20-Year Cohort Study
Authors: Sanderson Kristy , Patton George C. , McKercher Charlotte , Dwyer Terence , Venn Alison J. 
Published: April 2011

Objective: Very little is known about whether overweight and obese children have long-term risk for mental health problems. This study examined the association between overweight and obesity in childhood and DSM-IV mood, anxiety, and substance use disorders in young adulthood. Method: Participants in a national Australian school survey when aged 7–15 years in 1985 were re-interviewed 20 years later as young adults aged 26–36 years (1135 women, 1108 men). Body mass index (BMI) was calculated from measured height and weight in childhood and adulthood. Children were classified as overweight or obese based on a BMI ≥85th centile for age and sex-specific height and weight. Obesity in adulthood was defined as BMI of ≥30. Twelve-month DSM-IV diagnoses of mood, anxiety and substance use disorders were obtained from the Composite International Diagnostic Interview. The relative risk (RR) for each class of mental disorder was estimated for childhood overweight/obesity versus non-overweight, and for four weight trajectories: non-overweight in childhood and non-obese in adulthood; overweight in childhood and non-obese in adulthood; non-overweight in childhood and obese in adulthood; and overweight in childhood and obese in adulthood. Results: Childhood overweight and obesity was associated with an increased risk of mood disorder in adulthood (RR = 1.54, 95%CI 1.06–2.23, p = 0.03), with a similar risk observed among girls and boys. When weight in adulthood was taken into consideration, increased risk of mood disorder was observed only among overweight girls who were obese in adulthood (adjusted RR = 2.03, 95%CI 1.22–3.66, p = 0.006), with childhood overweight or obesity in non-obese adults not associated with any mental disorder. Conclusions: Childhood overweight may increase risk for mood disorder in adulthood, especially among overweight girls who become obese women. These results suggest that prevention of childhood overweight is equally important in both sexes for reducing risk of diagnosed mood disorder in adulthood.
