Type host. Common greenshank, Tringa nebularia (Gunnerus) (Syn. Totanus glottis [Gunnerus]) (Charadriiformes: Scolopacidae).
Type locality. Phulpore, Uttar Pradesh, India.
Additional host. Yellow-billed blue or gold-billed magpie, Urocissa flavirostris (Blyth) (Passeriformes: Corvidae)— Khan (1935).
Additional locality. Muktesar Kumaum, Uttarakhand, India—Khan (1935).
Previously proposed synonym. Morishitium sharadi (Bhalerao, 1935) — Dronen &Tkach (2014).
Remarks. Originally described as Cyclocoleum straightum Khan, 1935, this species was considered to be a synonym of Cyclocoelum ovopunctatum Stossich, 1902 (= Selfcoelum ovopunctatum [Stossich, 1902] n. comb.) by Dubois (1965) and of Cyclocoelum obscurum (Leidy, 1887) by Macko (1964). Morishitium sharadi was originally described as Cyclocoelum sharadi Bhalerao, 1935 (= Cyclocoelum [Cyclocoelum] sharadi of Bashkirova, 1950) from the yellow-billed blue or gold-billed magpie, Urocissa flavirostris (Blyth) (Passeriformes: Corvidae), also from India. Dronen & Tkach (2014) transferred this species to Morishitium and synonymized it with M. straightum. Morishitium straightum has an intertesticular ovary that forms a straight line with the nearly tandem testes (Hyptiasminae), a postpharyngeal genital pore and the vitelline fields are not confluent posteriorly, placing it in Morishitium. Rudimentary oral sucker present—Bhalerao (1935) and Khan (1935).

Variation in thyroid hormone concentration in brain microdialysates from freely-moving adult rats

Publisher: name: No Publisher Supplied
Year: 2009

description: Thyroid hormone has genomic and non-genomic actions in the developing and mature human. The focus of this research was to find if there was a measurable amount of thyroid hormone in the extracellular fluid of the adult rat brain and how it varied over time. To study the levels of thyroid hormone concentration in the adult brain, stereotaxic surgery was performed to implant a microdialysis cannula and electrodes for the study of electroencephalogram (EEG), electromyogram (EMG). The stylet blocking the microdialysis cannula was removed and the probe was inserted at the beginning of the study for sample collection. EEG and EMG waves were recorded concurrently. Artificial cerebrospinal fluid (aCSF) was run through the inlet tube of the probe and sample was obtained from the outlet using a refrigerated fraction collector. Collected samples were analyzed by high pressure liquid chromatography (HPLC), liquid chromatography mass spectrometry (LC/MS) and radioimmunoassay (RIA) for presence of the thyroid hormone. Samples run through the C18 column on the HPLC gave a peak for thyroid hormone at a retention time of 4.1minutes. Similar results were generated when the microdialysate samples were analyzed using LC/MS. The LC of the microdialysate gave the peak at the retention time of 4.1 minutes. This peak was further studied for confirmation by MS ionization. MS gave a fragmentation pattern which corresponded to the breakdown products of the thyroid hormone. The RIA kit with thyroid hormone standards prepared in aCSF was used for the detection of the thyroid hormone concentration. The level of thyroid hormone in samples varies over time. The variation in thyroid hormone level over time was compared to the sleep data obtained concurrently. The variation seen in the thyroid hormone concentration over time was detected by HPLC, LC/MS and RIA. This variation suggests some possibility of a mechanism of release of thyroid hormone in adult brain. This finding would be consistent with the potential signaling role of TH suggested by earlier experiments performed in our lab.

description: Hip-Hop music exists as one of the most explosive and expansive phenomenon's to date and possibly ever. This multi-faceted artistic form has been instrumental in giving a voice to those who typically come from disenfranchised backgrounds while also providing the world with some of the latest fashion trends and styles. My intentions of my Capstone project are to show the impact to which the music and culture had had on generations and to illustrate some of the highs and lows of the music culture. In attempting to cover this broad topic, I plan to examine the events, personalities and societal circumstances that have shaped the music and to also examine what direction the culture is moving towards.

Modern American counterinsurgency doctrine and the roots behind it
Creators: name: Vazquez, Omar
Publisher: name: No Publisher Supplied
Year: 2009

description: In the past sixty years, western nations including the United States, France, and Great Britain have been involved in various counterinsurgency campaigns around the world. Despite America's experience in the Vietnam War and the lessons that France and Great Britain made available after their counterinsurgency campaigns of the 1950's and 1960's. The United States entered the 2003 Iraq War with no real counterinsurgency doctrine available. The main objective of the United States once the insurgency began was still of a conventional mindset. This capstone has tracked the shift in American military philosophy from a failing conventional mode of thinking to a successful thought out and implemented counterinsurgency doctrine under Gen. David Petraeus. FM 3-24 the new counterinsurgency manual for the United States Army and Marine Corps as well as "the surge" played a critical role in altering the outcome of the Iraq War. While the manual was written due to the Iraq War, this piece of doctrine inculcates the post colonial experiences of France and Great Britain. The authors took great care to construct the manual in a manner that will allow it to be used for future conflicts, because of this; FM 3-24 looks as if it is here to stay even after the current American conflicts in the region conclude.
Nitrogen metabolism and transport in the Arbuscular mycorrhizal interaction
Creators: name: Choudhari, Sulbha
Publisher: name: No Publisher Supplied
Year: 2009

description: The Arbuscular Mycorrhiza is arguably the world's most important interaction. The roots of over 70 % of all known land plant species form this mutualistic interaction with fungi of the phylum Glomeromycota. Arbuscular mycorrhizal (AM) fungi can act as biofertilizers, bioprotectors and bioregulators of plants and have gained increasing attention for their potential role in sustainable agriculture and in the restoration and bioremediation of contaminated and disturbed sites. In this interaction plants take up mineral nutrients from the soil through their associated AM fungi and transfer in exchange for their beneificial effect on nutrient uptake photosynthetically fixed carbon to the fungus. Nitrogen (N) is known to be transferred from the fungus to the plant in the AM interaction, yet its metabolism, storage and transport in the symbiosis are poorly understood. Here, we report new findings about the N metabolism and transport in the AM symbiosis by analyzing fungal gene expression with quantitative polymerase chain reaction (Q-PCR).In vitro mycorrhizas of Glomus intraradices and Ri T-DNA-transformed carrot roots were grown in two-compartment Petri dishes. Different experiments were carried out to measure the effect of different carbon (C) or nitrogen (N) sources on fungal gene expression.  The RNA was extracted from the ERM and processed for Q-PCR using gene specific primers. Inorganic nitrogen is taken up by the fungus with its extraradical mycelium (ERM), is incorporated into amino acids, and translocated from the ERM to the intraradical mycelium (IRM) as arginine, where it is broken down to an inorganic form via the catabolic arm of the urea cycle and transferred to the plant without C (Govindarajulu et al., 2005; Jin et al., 2005). Consistent with the proposed mechanism, the genes involved primarily in nitrogen assimilation were highly expressed in the ERM whereas the mRNA transcripts levels of genes associated with the breakdown of arginine were low in the ERM.  The expression levels of these genes are regulated by the C availability for the mycorrhizal fungus and by an exogenous supply of N to the ERM.
Divergence of AMP synthetic and degradative machinery, and functional implications in psychrophiles
Creators: name: Parry, Bradley R.
Publisher: name: No Publisher Supplied
Year: 2009

description: A large group of organisms is well-suited to life at low temperatures (e.g., <20°C, termed psychrophiles) and is therefore able to colonize the majority of earth's biosphere. Interestingly, all observed kingdoms of psychrophiles have been shown to increase concentrations of ATP as temperatures decline; this phenomena has been described as an important compensatory mechanism to deal with decreased thermal energy. In an effort to understand this phenomena, both evolutionarily and metabolically, psychrophilic and mesophilic purine synthesis pathways were examined. Psychrophilic purine synthesis pathways tend to be enriched with de novo AMP synthetic enzymes, while mesophiles tend to be enriched with AMP degradative enzymes. The function of observed psychrophilic pathway structure was tested by engineering the mesophile Escherichia coli to reflect psychrophilic purine synthesis. Mutant E. coli was capable of growing up to 70% faster at low temperatures and became up to 10 fold more cold tolerant relative wild-type. These findings highlight an important evolutionary step in psychrophilic evolution.

Phenomenal concepts
Creators: name: Parvin, Douglas
Publisher: name: No Publisher Supplied
Year: 2009

description: I explore various claims about the nature of phenomenal concepts and isolate two recurring intuitions. The first involves the epistemological role of phenomenal concepts: a phenomenal concept is supposed to be a concept of a type of experience that must be possessed by a subject who knows what it is like to have an experience of the type in question. The second involves the importance of experience: a phenomenal concept is supposed to be a concept of a type of experience that can be possessed only by a subject who has had an experience of the type in question. Most accounts of phenomenal concepts have stipulations designed to satisfy both these conditions. I argue, however, that they cannot jointly be satisfied.We thus face a choice: either we can possess phenomenal concepts of types of experiences we haven't had, or a phenomenal concept is not required for phenomenal knowledge. I argue that the latter is unacceptable, as the idea of a phenomenal concept is inextricably tied to issues involving the relationship between phenomenal knowledge and non-phenomenal knowledge.I defend a recognitional account of phenomenal concepts, whereby a subject possesses a phenomenal concept partly in virtue of being able to recognize an experience as being of a certain type and which does not require having had an experience of the type in question. I consider and reject the rival "quotational" account, which holds that a phenomenal concept actually contains its referent as a proper part. The latter part of my dissertation is an analysis of some prominent antiphysicalist arguments through the lens of phenomenal concepts. I consider, especially, a theme that runs through them, which is what Brian Loar calls 'the semantic premise', and which Stephen White has recently argued for: the claim that any true identity statement that involves noncontingent modes of presentation on both sides of the identity must be a priori.

description: Genus Tiphys Koch, 1836
Diagnosis (for the family see above): Setae Mp1 posterior, slightly posteromedial, or posterolateral to bases of Lp1; suture line between coxal plates II–III extending to lateral apodeme; a transverse muscle attachment scar present medially at posterior end of coxal plates II–III. Setae E1 located on anterior half of plate.
Descriptions of larvae (Fig. 51): Many Tiphys larvae have been described, e.g. Tiphys latipes (Müller, 1776) by Smith (1976) and Wainstein (1980).
Diagnostic characters of larvae: See characters of the genus Tiphys.
Remarks: The characters of the larvae and the findings from other spring surveys (e.g. Viets 1923 for lowland springs) suggest that the larva belongs to the genus Tiphys, whose species hitherto cannot be separated. In the Luxembourgian springs, no adults of Tiphys spp. have been reported (Gerecke et al. 2005), but species of the genus were frequently noted from helocrenes in all parts of Europe.

description: The present invention relates to a composition of matter for the time-dependent liberation of therapeutic agents. This composition of matter comprises a polymeric slab and a homogeneously dispersed enzyme which degrades the polymeric slab in the presence of moisture. The therapeutic agent is physically entrapped in the polymeric slab by inclusion during polymerization to form the polymeric slab or by mixture of the therapeutic agent with a liquid form of the polymeric slab and conversion of the liquid to a solid form. The therapeutic agent is not chemically bound to the polymer, and thus release of the agent is immediately effected upon the specific moisture-activated enzymatic degradation of the polymer slab. Moisture for enzymatic activation is provided by the biological surface on which the slab is emplaced, such as the dermal surface. The composition comprises a polymer such as poly (DL-lactide) and an enzyme such as proteinase K together with chlorpheniramine maleate as the therapeutic agent.
Watershed modeling using HEC-RAS, HEC-HMS, and GIS models
Creators: name: Patel, Kunal P.
Publisher: name: No Publisher Supplied
Year: 2009

description: Managing stormwater on a watershed basis is considered the best strategy to address flooding.  A watershed model should provide temporal and spatial distribution of runoff response for a given storm.  GIS applicability in watershed modeling is increasing due to the availability of spatial information, fast processors and interfaces such as ArcHydro, HEC-GeoHMS, and HEC-GeoRAS linking hydrologic and hydraulic models to the ArcGIS environment.Soil Conservation Service methods are used widely in hydrologic models.  Several parameters inherent to these empirical methods are average values derived from various watershed conditions.  These average values overestimate peak flows for flat, low-lying coastal terrains.  The design of flood control structures based on these flow values allow more post-development discharge, make the system more hydraulically efficient, increase project costs, and cause flooding for areas downstream.  In this study, Wreck Pond Brook Watershed (WPBW), a coastal New Jersey area was used for sensitivity studies of the initial abstraction ratio and peak rate factor.  The HEC-HMS modeling results indicated use of a lower peak rate factor (e.g. 284) and 5% initial abstraction ratio provided better characterization of stream response.  These updated parameters provide new technical information for improving stormwater management in coastal areas.An important limitation in hydraulic modeling is the economic constraint on cross-section spacing for surveying channels and floodplains. Applying GIS techniques in hydraulic modeling eliminated this constraint.  Floodplain analysis was done using ArcGIS, HEC-GeoRAS and HEC-RAS.  Detailed elevation data (LIDAR information from Monmouth County) was incorporated into the HEC-RAS using GIS models. This innovation was important for improving model efficiency.  The modeled floodplain demonstrated close agreement to the observed floodplain for the October 2005 storm and showed greater accuracy compared to the FEMA floodplain for the 100-year storm. This study validated use of LIDAR elevation data in floodplain analysis for the second-order streams in coastal NJ.Finally, an approach was demonstrated using modeled floodplain and HEC-HMS for flood control analysis.  This study presents an innovative watershed modeling approach using GIS models while addressing the limitations of traditional hydrologic and hydraulic methods using WPBW as an example.

description: This dissertation traces the use of the cartellino--an illusionistic paper label--in the Venetian Empire from the middle of the fifteenth century to the first quarter of the sixteenth century, when the motif enjoyed its greatest popularity. The small body of existing scholarship on the cartellino generally focuses the motif as a vehicle for signatures. Building on these studies, I contextualize the cartellino as one of the most conspicuous signs of Venetian painters' assertion of identity during the early Renaissance period. Confusion about the cartellino's origins has persisted in published studies, and only in a few brief discussions has its iconographic significance been evaluated. This dissertation addresses this gap in the scholarship and explains the limited popularity of the cartellino by placing it in the context of various cultural and economic factors that were particularly relevant in Venice and its terraferma empire during the early Renaissance period.My dissertation presents the first comprehensive study of a large group of signatures of a particular visual type, addressing the often overlooked importance of the specific form of the signature, its content, and the placement of the artist's name in interpretations of the paintings on which they appear.

description: This dissertation project is an ethnographic study of the House Ballroom community in New York City. The House Ballroom community is a Black and Latino/a queer and transgender alternative kinship system and dance performance circuit. Specifically, it follows the lives of HIV prevention workers who are deeply embedded in House Ballroom social networks. Based on four years of anthropological fieldwork, I document the way that these community activists fashion meaningful lives in the meeting point between the Ballroom world and the HIV prevention not-for-profit organizations in New York City. It is also an ethnography of the productive failure of the gay and lesbian movement's inability to include working class Black and Latino/a queer communities in developing a political infrastructure to combat HIV/AIDS in New York City. My informants have helped to develop an alternative civil and political infrastructure by combining material and symbolic resources found in the HIV prevention not-for-profit organizations and the House Ballroom community. This ethnography documents and analyzes the lives that these House Ballroom prevention activists have forged and the work of political love that animates their professional and Ballroom communities.

description: Hydrogels of polymerized and crosslinked macromers comprising hydrophilic oligomers having biodegradable monomeric or oligomeric extensions, which biodegradable extensions are terminated on free ends with end cap monomers or oligomers capable of polymerization and cross linking are described. The hydrophilic core itself may be degradable, thus combining the core and extension functions. Macromers are polymerized using free radical initiators under the influence of long wavelength ultraviolet light, visible light excitation or thermal energy. Biodegradation occurs at the linkages within the extension oligomers and results in fragments which are non-toxic and easily removed from the body. Preferred applications for the hydrogels include prevention of adhesion formation after surgical procedures, controlled release of drugs and other bioactive species, temporary protection or separation of tissue surfaces, adhering of sealing tissues together, and preventing the attachment of cells to tissue surfaces.

Engineering embryonic stem cells for myelin cell therapy

description: Cell replenishment using stem cell-derived transplants holds great promise for therapy in human disease. However, clinical therapeutics in the central nervous system (CNS) requires targeted migration for lesion repair. For CNS grafts, homing the graft population to the appropriate site for tissue repair is non trivial since surgical access to wound is not risk free. Our objective is to modify stem cells to generate lineage specified CNS glia that 'home' into lesions, focusing on myelin repair for multiple sclerosis and spinal cord injury. Myelin protects neuronal axons, and in pre-clinical models ES-derived OL progenitor cell (OPC) grafts can regenerate myelin forming oligodendrocytes (OLs) and rescue the phenotype of myelin-defective mice.  Our studies focus on engineering ES cells to expresss PDGFRα, the trans-membrane receptor for Platelet-Derived Growth Factor, which directs OPC migration during brain development.  Prior work identified a 'rheostat' function for PDGFRα, with low levels of PDGF activating PI3K to in initiate migration and high levels activating PLCγ to inhibit migration. This predicts that PLCγ-uncoupled receptors would direct ES-derived OPCs toward PDGF infused brain lesions.  We addressed the rheostat model by engineering mouse ES cells to express wild-type and signal transduction mutant versions of PDGFRα. First we generated a medium cocktail named '2i5S' that allows the the long-term expansion of mouse ES cell lines, which is optimal for our engineering experiments. Next we introduced PDGFRα transgenes into mES cells in vitro. A very low number of stable ES transformants were obtained after transfection, and this directed us towards using a set of vectors (TRE.PDGFRα) with tetracycline inducible promoter for control of transgene expression.  Lastly, we used myelin mutant shiverer mice to evaluate the potential of ES-derived OPCs to generate myelin in vivo.  Our results showed substantial improvements in both motor function and longevity in animals with 7% of ESwtderived cells present in the pup.  Therefore this suggests that 7% ES-derived stem cell engraftment is the minimal level that is required for functional cell replacement therapy.

Characterization of landscape-scale habitat use by timber rattlesnakes (Crotalus horridus) within the Ridge and Valley and Highlands regions of New Jersey

description: Regulations and a lack of understanding the habitat needs of timber rattlesnakes (Crotalus horridus) on a landscape-scale have limited conservation efforts.  With better information land managers and planners could implement strategies that protect suitable habitats from development and other human activities.  While studies have shown microhabitat characteristics play a role in habitat selection by timber rattlesnakes, it remains unclear if large-scale features, other than rock outcrops, talus slopes and canopy, also impact site selection.  I compared the habitat use by two metapopulations of timber rattlesnakes in northern New Jersey with available habitats using GIS data layers to identify the snakes' macrohabitat preferences.  The results showed snakes used habitats with slightly more open canopy, closer to rock outcrops, and farther from roads, human development, forest edge (an interface between any habitat and forests with >50% canopy closure) and streams and rivers (>10m wide) than randomly sampled locations.  Additionally, I developed a model and distribution map of potential areas where hibernacula may exist in northern New Jersey by first testing habitat and topographic variables to determine the predictors of suitable habitat for hibernacula.  In 2004, elevation, sun index, deciduous wetlands and slopes (0-20%) were the most influential features in predicting suitable habitat for hibernacula.  Slopes (0-20%) and deciduous wetlands were negatively associated with hibernacula indicating that areas containing shallow slopes and/or deciduous wetlands were less likely to support hibernacula.  Sun index indicated that hibernacula are most likely to be found in areas with steep slopes and southerly aspects, and elevation, having the least influence in predicting suitable habitat for hibernacula, showed the likelihood of hibernacula presence increased with increasing elevation.  In 2009, with the addition of interior forest hibernacula in the dataset, only slope (0-20%) and sun index were influential features in predicting suitable habitat for hibernacula indicating that the potential for hibernacula presence increased in areas with steep slopes and southerly aspects.  Landscape modeling using GIS-ready habitat features can help biologists identify habitats essential for populations and metapopulations, and target conservation of those habitats and connecting corridors for long-term timber rattlesnake viability.

Diagnostic characters of larvae: Strong lineation of legs and Dp.
Remarks: No detailed description of Feltria rouxi exists. In the work of Efford (1966, description of the later synonymized F. ro m i j n i), no measurements were given and few drawings are presented. The present larvae almost certainly belong to a species of the genus Feltria. Since in Luxembourgian springs F. ro u x i is the only species of the genus (Gerecke et al. 2005), the Feltria individuals were attributed to this species.
