The crystallization of counter-enlightenment and philosophe identities: theological controversy and catholic enlightenment in pre-revolutionary France
RECENT works of modern French history have found it fashionable, when focusing on the eighteenth century from across the jagged shoals of nineteenth- and twentieth-century France, to reductively treat Francophone national identity as the dialogical interaction of two related "imagined communities." (1) On the one hand, as scholars such as...

Flower visitation by adult shore flies at an inland site in Florida
Shore flies Ephydridae are small acalypterates whose larvae are usually aquatic or semi-aquatic. Adult feeding habits are varied and known for only a small proportion of species. Most adults consume algae or bacterial slurries, but some are predators on smaller arthropods, scavengers, or nectar feeders (Wirth et al. 1987). At...

Time-resolved Singlet Oxygen Phosphorescence Measurements from Photosensitized Experiments in Single Cells: Effects of Oxygen Diffusion and Oxygen Concentration
ABSTRACT Time-resolved singlet oxygen, O2(a^sup 1^?^sub g^), phosphorescence experiments have been performed in single cells upon pulsed laser irradiation of a photosensitizer incorporated into the cell. Data recorded as a function of the partial pressure of ambient oxygen to which the cell is exposed reflect apparent values for the intracellular...

A Role for Internal Water Molecules in Proton Affinity Changes in the Schiff Base and Asp85 for One-way Proton Transfer in Bacteriorhodopsin[dagger]
ABSTRACT Light-induced proton pumping in bacteriorhodospin is carried out through five proton transfer steps. We propose that the proton transfer to Asp85 from the Schiff base in the L-to-M transition is accompanied by the relocation of a water cluster on the cytoplasmic side of the Schiff base from a site...

Igneous rock associations 10. Komatiites
SUMMARY Komatiites are ultramafic volcanic rocks that occur mainly in Archean and Paleoproterozoic greenstone belts. These olivine-rich rocks are assumed to have crystallized from magmas that have about 28-30 wt% MgO. They are characterized by spinifex texture--platy or skeletal crystals of olivine set in a glassy matrix. Chemically, komatiites...

A program for "naturalizing" metaphysics, with application to the ontology of events

This transformation was underwritten by two principles: liberalism--the view that citizens are autonomous individual actors whose...
