Hybrid governance and network management in the globalizing metropolis
Creators: name: Ruffin, Fayth Anese
Publisher: name: No Publisher Supplied
Year: 2010

description: This is a transnational, socio-legal, comparative embedded case study of four business improvement districts (BIDs), two in Cape Town, WC, RSA and two in Newark, NJ, USA in the context of globalization, metropolitan regionalization, and urbanization.  Contemporarily, urbanization is a global phenomenon.  Already with more than half the world's population living in urban settings, two thirds are expected to be urbanized by 2030. The city is a long-time contested terrain. Who and what form of governance and management technologies will facilitate our urban future?  Recently, global diffusion of local revitalization policy has led to the proliferation of BIDs across multiple continents.  BIDs are generally self-financed organizations providing district-specific supplemental services with the power of government behind them. Using OECD's urban entrepreneurial governance analytical framework, this study comparatively investigates BIDs in different continents. The study internationalizes the dependent variable of the network model to explore sub-local BID interaction with independent variables of an entrepreneurial municipal government, BID transnational discourse, and national legal systems. Embedded in the case study design are the BID, stakeholder segments, and individuals as units of analysis. Data collection was by semi-structured interviews, focus groups, documentary evidence, archival records, observation, and physical artifacts.  Data analysis encompassed template and data matrix analysis, explanation-building, and legal research and analysis. Findings indicate that BIDs are products of neoliberal localization mechanisms; and that the BID movement is starting to emerge as a transnational discourse community, suggesting global governance implications. Global and local forces driving BIDs appear to be mutually constitutive, not oppositional. In the transformation and reconfiguration of geographical and governance scales where regionalism and urbanism figure prominently into the global political economy, the nation-state remains the legal architect and arbiter enabling the worldwide advancement BIDs. However, public and private legal implications of BIDs extend beyond enabling legislation.

description: The recently dominant SARS-CoV-2 Omicron JN.1 has evolved into multiple sublineages, with recurrent spike mutations R346T, F456L, and T572I, some of which exhibit growth advantages, such as KP.2 and KP.3. We investigated these mutations in JN.1, examining their individual and combined effects on immune evasion, ACE2 receptor affinity, and in vitro infectivity. F456L increased resistance to neutralization by human sera, including those after JN.1 breakthrough infections, and by RBD class-1 monoclonal antibodies, significantly altering JN.1 antigenicity. R346T enhanced ACE2-binding affinity and modestly boosted the infectivity of JN.1 pseudovirus, without a discernible effect on serum neutralization, while T572I slightly bolstered evasion of SD1-directed mAbs against JN.1's ancestor, BA.2, possibly by altering SD1 conformation. Importantly, expanding sublineages such as KP.2 containing R346T, F456L, and V1104L, showed similar neutralization resistance as JN.1 with R346T and F456L, suggesting V1104L does not appreciably affect antibody evasion. Furthermore, the hallmark mutation Q493E in KP.3 significantly reduced ACE2-binding affinity and viral infectivity, without noticeably impacting serum neutralization. Our findings illustrate how certain JN.1 mutations confer growth advantages in the population and could inform the design of the next COVID-19 vaccine booster.

Interleukin-1 mediated cell-type specific signaling in hippocampal neurons and astrocytes
Creators: name: Huang, Yangyang
Publisher: name: No Publisher Supplied
Year: 2010

description: Interleukin-1β (IL-1β) is a pro-inflammatory cytokine that is implicated in immune and inflammatory responses.  In the central nervous system (CNS), IL-1β is synthesized and released during injury, infection, and many neurodegenerative diseases, but also under physiological conditions. Several IL-1-mediated signaling pathways and effects have been identified in hippocampal neurons and astrocytes, but their mechanisms have not been fully defined. IL-1 signaling requires the type one IL-1 receptor (IL-1RI) as well as IL-1 receptor accessory protein (IL-1RAcP) as a receptor partner. A novel isoform of the IL-1 receptor accessory protein, AcPb, has also been found in the CNS, but its role remains unclear. This thesis examined AcPb function in regulating IL-1β signaling.  The results showed that IL-1β activated p38 MAPK but not NFκB in neurons. In astrocytes, IL-1β induced both p38 and NFκB pathways in regulating inflammatory responses. AcPb was not involved in mediating either p38 or NFκB in either cell type. In contrast, a physiological level of IL-1β treatment (0.01ng/ml) activated p-Src in neurons via AcPb in vitro. In addition, overexpression of AcPb in astrocytes was sufficient to induce p-Src mediated by IL-1β. Taken together, these results suggest that the restricted expression of AcPb in CNS neurons may mediate neuronal specific IL-1 pathways and outcomes, and that physiological and pathophysiological levels of IL-1β mediate particular neuronal functions via separate pathways.

description: OXA-232 is one of the most common OXA-48-like carbapenemase derivatives and is widely disseminated in nosocomial settings across countries. The blaOXA-232 gene is located on a 6-kb non-conjugative ColKP3-type plasmid, while the dissemination of blaOXA-232 into different Enterobacterales species and the polyclonal dissemination of OXA-232-producing K. pneumoniae revealed the horizontal transfer of blaOXA-232. However, it’s still unclear how this non-conjugative ColKP3 plasmid could facilitate the mobilization of blaOXA-232. Here, we observed the in vivo intraspecies transfer of blaOXA-232 during a nosocomial outbreak of OXA-232-producing K. pneumoniae. We demonstrated the presence of ColKP3 OXA-232 plasmid in the outer membrane vesicles (OMVs) derived from clinical isolates, and OMVs could facilitate the horizontal transfer of blaOXA-232 among Enterobacterales. In contrast, for the most prevalent carbapenemase genes, including blaKPC-2 and blaNDM-1, though the presence of carbapenemase genes and plasmid backbones in the vesicular lumen was observed, OMVs couldn’t promote effective transformation, probably due to the low copy number of plasmids in clinical isolates and the low number of plasmids loaded into vesicles. Conjugation assay revealed that the epidemic IncX3 NDM-1 and IncFII(pHN7A8)/IncR KPC-2 plasmids were conjugative and could be horizontally transferred via independent conjugation or with the help of a co-existent conjugative plasmid. For the large-size and low-copy number conjugative plasmids carrying carbapenemase genes, OMVs-mediated gene exchange may only serve as an alternative pathway for horizontal transfer. In conclusion, diverse mobilization strategies were employed by plasmids harbouring carbapenemase genes, and plasmids display a proper choice of mobility pathway due to their individual properties.

The United Nations and Middle East refugees
Creators: name: Urman, Stanley Allan
Publisher: name: No Publisher Supplied
Year: 2010

description: Rationale--Over the past century, the Arab-Israeli conflict has dominated Middle East affairs. The ultimate and inevitable victims of these years of strife have been the people of the region who were uprooted from their homes and displaced. Two populations of refugees emerged – Palestinians from mandated Palestine and Jews from Arab countries - both groups recognized as bone fide refugees by the relevant UN Agencies. The UN, through statute and precedent, has developed international standards and mechanisms for the protection, resettlement and rehabilitation of refugees around the world. This dissertation will examine whether there was any anomaly in the way the UNresponded to these two different Middle East refugee populations. Methods--To determine whether, in fact, such an anomaly existed, research was conducted, among other places, at the following sites: Archives at the UN Headquarters ( New York and Geneva);Archives of the UNHCR Headquarters (Geneva);U.S. National Archives and Records Administration (College Park, MD); National Archives of Canada (Ottawa);  World Jewish Congress Archives (New York and Jerusalem); American Jewish Committee Archives (New York); and Central Zionist Archives (Jerusalem).The following archival records were reviewed and analyzed: 1) Resolutions of the UN General Assembly and Security Council; 2) Transcripts of UN General Assembly and Security Council proceedings; 3) Transcripts of UNRWA and UNHCR proceedings; 4) Bi-lateral and Multilateral Treaties; Agreements and Proceedings of Multinational Entities (e.g. Quartet, Arab League; etc.); and 5) Books, Memoirs of Statesmen on Middle East Affairs, Articles. Results-- Extensive research into voting patterns and UN meeting transcripts reveal that the UN didaccord differential treatment to Palestinian refugees, by every measure, including, among others: UN resolutions; UN Agency involvement; and financial support. Conclusion-- This dissertation will attempt to answer, among others, the following questions: Whywould the UN react so differently towards Palestinian and Jewish refugees? Is all this a case study in the uniqueness of the Jews? Or in UN bias? Or collusion by Arab states; or in how a seemingly objective international organization can be is subverted politically?

description: During the 2021/2022 winter season, we isolated highly pathogenic avian influenza (HPAI) H5N1 viruses harbouring an amino acid substitution from Asparagine(N) to Aspartic acid (D) at residue 193 of the hemagglutinin (HA) receptor binding domain (RBD) from migratory birds in South Korea. Herein, we investigated the characteristics of the N193D HA-RBD substitution in the A/CommonTeal/Korea/W811/2021[CT/W811] virus by using recombinant viruses engineered via reverse genetics (RG). A receptor affinity assay revealed that the N193D HA-RBD substitution in CT/W811 increases α2,6 sialic acid receptor binding affinity. The rCT/W811-HA193N virus caused rapid lethality with high virus titres in chickens compared with the rCT/W811-HA193D virus, while the rCT/W811-HA193D virus exhibited enhanced virulence in mammalian hosts with multiple tissue tropism. Surprisingly, a ferret-to-ferret transmission assay revealed that rCT/W811-HA193D virus replicates well in the respiratory tract, at a rate about 10 times higher than that of rCT/W811-HA193N, and all rCT/W811-HA193D direct contact ferrets were seroconverted at 10 days post-contact. Further, competition transmission assay of the two viruses revealed that rCT/W811-HA193D has enhanced growth kinetics compared with the rCT/W811-HA193N, eventually becoming the dominant strain in nasal turbinates. Further, rCT/W811-HA193D exhibits high infectivity in primary human bronchial epithelial (HBE) cells, suggesting the potential for human infection. Taken together, the HA-193D containing HPAI H5N1 virus from migratory birds showed enhanced virulence in mammalian hosts, but not in avian hosts, with multi-organ replication and ferret-to-ferret transmission. Thus, this suggests that HA-193D change increases the probability of HPAI H5N1 infection and transmission in humans.

description: What have we done to our world, and is there a possibility that we can change what increasingly appears to be a bleak future? Is there any evidence for hope? Is there a kind of melancholic beauty to this, and how am I to show both in my work?   My work explores my experience as a 55-year-old woman who has lived her whole life in western New York State, in a dying post-industrial city. It is also about my understanding of myself as a woman who is also growing older and experiencing changes in my mind and body as well as my life roles.  There are two aspects of my work, the formal concerns and the interest of the post-industrial landscape as it pertains to my life, which is a microcosm of the life of mankind on our planet. What we have done to Upstate New York and the rest of the rust belt is being done to much of the rest of the world.  My work also explores what makes a painting successful on a formal level. What makes an abstraction successful? Why is it important for me to work abstractly?

description: I am interested in exploring this space of memory through the process of painting and installation.  My memory of growing up with the Mexican culture is the lens I use to approach my body of work.  I am seeking to create an experiential space through the artwork that has the potential to visually transcend language, culture, and religion.  The cultural and religious elements from private and public memorials, shrines, and altars are incorporated into the work.  I fuse my interests in the visual exploration with the subjective space of memory, culture and influences from contemporary art. Also, I have used the persuasion of contemporary artists such as Jacqueline Humphries, Charline Von Heyl, Beatriz Milhazes, and Pepon Osorio as an underlying inspiration for much of my work.

description: Recent attempts by gallery websites to exhibit work online, whether that work exists as a physical object or a digital file, have failed.  Proposals and implementations of online interactive art have been sparse. The fundamental flaw in the design of gallery websites, and the attempt to translate the traditional art space signifiers, is a failure to properly consider the utilization of online space by our digital bodies. This thesis represents a broader research into a concept that is reflected in my videos, installations, and drawings.

description: After the use of facemasks, other isolation measures enacted during the SARS-CoV-2 pandemic were lifted, respiratory pathogens, such as RSV, reappeared, but until the November 2023 WHO alert for China, M. pneumoniae had virtually disappeared. After observing a similar reappearance in our hospital, a retrospective analysis of the number of positive M. pneumoniae tests. Between 2018 and December 2023, 1619 PCR tests were ordered and 43 (2.6%) of them were positive. Two outbreaks, one in 2018 and one in 2023, accounted for the majority of cases. Tests were usually ordered in an outpatient setting (53.54%, n = 23) and most of them were paediatric patients with a mean age (sd) of 10.2 (6.2) years. As for the severity of the cases, in the 2018 outbreak, of 15 children who tested positive, 53.3% (n = 8) were admitted to the ward and 6.7% (n = 1) at the intensive care unit. Whereas in 2023, 2 patients were tested in the ward (10.5%) and one in the intensive care unit (5.2%) from a total of 19 patients. The positive rate in 2023 was significantly higher in comparison with years 2020, 2021 and 2022 and significantly lower in comparison with 2018 (P-value=0.003). The outbreak in late 2023 can be explained by the seasonality of Mycoplasma pneumonia alone, which has shown outbreaks every 3–5 years, and it does not appear to be more severe than the previous one.

White with scarce suffusions of orange; eyes reddish (photograph of Rauschert & Arntz 2015 as ‘ Epimeria inermis 1’).
Distribution
Magellanic Region: Patagonia, Falkland Islands, 27–494 m (De Broyer et al. 2007), Burdwood Bank, 296–299 m (see remarks).
Remarks
The specimen labelled ‘ Epimeria inermis 1’ in Rauschert & Arntz (2015) does not correspond to the description of E. inermis: it exhibits important differences in the shape of coxa 4, and the dorsal profiles of pleonite 3 and urosomite 1. The morphology of this specimen is more similar to E. acanthurus as illustrated by Coleman (2007), and it is therefore identified as such. Rauschert & Arntz (2015) do not indicate the collection details of their specimen, but this information was found in an early draft of their book made available to the authors: ANT XIX [obviously ANT-XIX/5], LAMPOS, station 153 [i.e., 153-1]. The coordinates of this station are: 54°32.75ʹ S 56°09.84ʹ W to 54°31.22ʹ S 56°08.93ʹ W [Burdwood Bank], 296– 299 m.

description: Coinfection with multiple viruses is a common phenomenon in clinical settings and is a crucial driver of viral evolution. Although numerous studies have demonstrated viral recombination arising from coinfections of different strains of a specific species, the role of coinfections of different species or genera during viral evolution is rarely investigated. Here, we analyzed coinfections of and recombination events between four different swine enteric coronaviruses that infect the jejunum and ileum in pigs, including porcine epidemic diarrhea virus (PEDV), transmissible gastroenteritis virus (TGEV), and swine acute diarrhea syndrome coronavirus (SADS-CoV), and a deltacoronavirus, porcine deltacoronavirus (PDCoV). Various coinfection patterns were observed in 4,468 fecal and intestinal tissue samples collected from pigs in a 4-year survey. PEDV/PDCoV was the most frequent coinfection. However, recombination analyses have only detected events involving PEDV/TGEV and SADS-CoV/TGEV, indicating that inter-species recombination among coronaviruses is most likely to occur within the same genus. We also analyzed recombination events within the newly identified genus Deltacoronavirus and found that sparrows have played a unique host role in the recombination history of the deltacoronaviruses. The emerging virus PDCoV, which can infect humans, has a different recombination history. In summary, our study demonstrates that swine enteric coronaviruses are a valuable model for investigating the relationship between viral coinfection and recombination, which provide new insights into both inter- and intraspecies recombination events among swine enteric coronaviruses, and extend our understanding of the relationship between coronavirus coinfection and recombination.

description: In thinking about what is important in my work a few major themes come to mind.  There is the immediate imagery which is primarily a fanciful landscape in which man-made and natural elements collide.  There is the notion of subject, as in, the broader subject of my work; as well as questioning what constitutes a subject at all.  Additionally there is the idea of enframing - what is found within the frame and what lies beyond, either outside of the frame or in the vast white spaces that I have left untouched.  While the theoretical axis that drives this thesis is localized to discussing these ideas it also is based on the idea that every part of the piece or system is connected to every other part . In looking at my drawings this means understanding that every part, or element, of a piece may not have an inherent individual meaning. The ultimate meaning of a piece can best be understood when all of the elements are taken together, in relation to one another, and read as a unified whole. When discussing my digital art this notion is extended to include not only the individual elements of the artwork, but the elements of the technology used to create the artwork as well. In the paper that follows I will discuss how this interdependency plays out and is apparent in all of my work and inadvertently, has become part of the subject of my work.

description: An examination of my cross-disciplinary artistic practice that attempts to bring together Asian meditative disciplines with Western inquiry through visualizing social and physical statistics.  As I explore the relationship between language and sensation, I use Charles Pierce's three referential modes: the iconic, indexical and symbol-symbol to view how humanity as come to understand the world through images, objects and rituals.  Paralleling this investigation is a systems theory that attempts to visualize the fluidity of a non-discrete universe where social interaction correlates with the physical world.

Taxonomy

description: Adelosina sp. cf. A. pulchella d’Orbigny 1826 (Fig. 6:8–13)
Description. Test broad, approximately as wide as tall, outermost chambers irregular, quadratic and carinate with quinqueloculine arrangement. Chambers inflated, slightly convex from carina. Oral and aboral ends rounded. Roughened wall texture with weak, shallow, longitudinal striae. Aperture terminal on short neck with irregular oval outline, bordered by a thin lip. Dentition consists of a stout, short tooth. Additional nub-like teeth located either side of central tooth, on apertural rim, approximately perpendicular to main central tooth (Fig. 6:8–13).
Remarks. As the original test description for Quinqueloculina pulchella d’Orbigny 1826 has been lost (Ellis & Messina 1940), it is difficult to identify this species with confidence. However, the type figure illustrations by Parker et al. (1871) show an inflated, rounded test with deep, thick longitudinal striae. In contrast, the specimens collected during the Challenger Expedition (Brady 1884, pl. 6, fig. 13) display the diagnostic test shape, longitudinal striae and aperture of the species. Collected specimens are similar to Brady’s illustrations (1884, pl. 6, fig. 13) and also exhibit the taxon’s distinct test shape, aperture and longitudinal striae. Jones (1994) later reassigned the Challenger specimens to Adelosina due to the terminal placement of the aperture. Specimens collected from the CG vary in length of neck, regularity of their oval-shaped aperture and size of dentition/nubs (Compare Fig. 6: 8–10 to 11–13).
The type specimens of this species were collected from the Atlantic Ocean along the coasts of France and the Mediterranean (d'Orbigny 1826). Brady’s (1884) specimens were also from the Atlantic, along the west coast of Scotland and Skye from depths of 82 – 110 m. This species is rarely reported from reef environments making complete synonymy difficult. Cheng & Zheng (1978) assigned material from the Xisha Islands to Triloculina costifera Terquem 1878 which closely resembles A. pulchella in having an inflated test with convex, carinate margins and rounded oral and aboral ends. However, the triloculine, as opposed to quinqueloculine chamber arrangement and oval aperture with a single tooth, sets this taxon apart. Specimens published by Haig (1988) from the Papuan Lagoon as Quinquloculina cf. Q. collumnosa Cushman 1922 are similar to A. pulchella in having a warped carinate test with fine longitudinal striae. But they differ in that the test is more compressed and the circular aperture sits atop a long, slender neck.
Distribution within study area. Adelosina sp. cf. A. pulchella was found in low abundance with no more than five specimens per sample from site 50 in Heron Lagoon. This taxon was absent from Sykes Reef.

description: OXA-232 is one of the most common OXA-48-like carbapenemase derivatives and is widely disseminated in nosocomial settings across countries. The blaOXA-232 gene is located on a 6-kb non-conjugative ColKP3-type plasmid, while the dissemination of blaOXA-232 into different Enterobacterales species and the polyclonal dissemination of OXA-232-producing K. pneumoniae revealed the horizontal transfer of blaOXA-232. However, it’s still unclear how this non-conjugative ColKP3 plasmid could facilitate the mobilization of blaOXA-232. Here, we observed the in vivo intraspecies transfer of blaOXA-232 during a nosocomial outbreak of OXA-232-producing K. pneumoniae. We demonstrated the presence of ColKP3 OXA-232 plasmid in the outer membrane vesicles (OMVs) derived from clinical isolates, and OMVs could facilitate the horizontal transfer of blaOXA-232 among Enterobacterales. In contrast, for the most prevalent carbapenemase genes, including blaKPC-2 and blaNDM-1, though the presence of carbapenemase genes and plasmid backbones in the vesicular lumen was observed, OMVs couldn’t promote effective transformation, probably due to the low copy number of plasmids in clinical isolates and the low number of plasmids loaded into vesicles. Conjugation assay revealed that the epidemic IncX3 NDM-1 and IncFII(pHN7A8)/IncR KPC-2 plasmids were conjugative and could be horizontally transferred via independent conjugation or with the help of a co-existent conjugative plasmid. For the large-size and low-copy number conjugative plasmids carrying carbapenemase genes, OMVs-mediated gene exchange may only serve as an alternative pathway for horizontal transfer. In conclusion, diverse mobilization strategies were employed by plasmids harboring carbapenemase genes, and plasmids display a proper choice of mobility pathway due to their individual properties.

Seeing outside

description: Throughout history, wandering was not a way to waste time, but something people did for the purpose of discovery. When I go outside to look for new things to paint, or familiar things to see in new ways, I am aware I am not embarking on a journey as consequential as the Mayflower. However, the main reason I do go outside is to discover. The things I find are familiar and small, seemingly insignificant when compared to discovering a new nation or an unknown land. A deformed tree, falling leaves, markings of the people who have been there before, are the things that peak my interest when I am exploring. Paul Nabhan notices, "how much time adults spend scanning the landscape for picturesque panoramas and scenic overlooks. While the kids were on their hands and knees, engaged with what was immediately before them, we adults traveled by abstraction."  With this in mind, I want to go back to looking at my immediate surroundings with that sense of wonderment I have lost over time. I want my paintings to capture the excitement and energy a child would have when confronting the immediate world.    Part of my responsibility as a painter is to communicate my visual experiences with others. My paintings are rooted in reality, presenting the viewer with places and objects they may have otherwise taken for granted during a walk outside. There are innumerable distractions keeping people inside now. With my paintings I am bringing people back outside, even if they are looking at them inside on a gallery wall.

description: My use of photography is rooted in the complexities of the photograph, its making, meaning and function.  Human understanding and perception of the physical world (as Landscape and Nature) are sole concerns as I address the ambivalence that coincides with these ideas and the space in between. Can one achieve a work that illuminates both personally and collectively, privately and socially?  By photographing constructed environments in the studio, can I challenge the photograph as "document" and the environment as fundamentally separate from human? With this work, I am hoping to accomplish several things through a hermeneutic based exploration: An engagement in a meditative, slow process, the revealing of a mindful, personal space,a deeper understanding of the environment and my place in it and the capability, functionality, conscious/unconscious uses of and meaning in photography and the photograph and, lastly, how the image affects human consciousness of and relationship to the physical world.
