Food Superstores, Food Deserts and Traffic Generation in the UK: A Semi-Parametric Regression Approach [PDF]
This study contributes another route towards explaining and tackling ‘food desert’ effects. It features the estimation of a (semi-parametric) trip attraction model for food superstores in the UK using a composite dataset.

From the first stars to the first black holes [PDF]
The growth of the first super massive black holes (SMBHs) at z > 6 is still a major challenge for theoretical models. If it starts from black hole (BH) remnants of Population III stars (light seeds with mass ~ 100 Msun) it requires super-Eddington ...

SEMIPERMEABILITY OF SEED COVERINGS AND STIMULATION OF SEEDS [PDF]
In a previous paper (6) the writer assumed that the methods of seed stimulation, advocated by Popoff (9) are of little value for agriculture and horticulture [cf. also Bredeman (1)]. Many publications witness the great interest on the subject of seed stimulation.

MECHANICS OF DORMANCY IN SEEDS
Dormancy in plants is common in three organs, seeds, spores, and buds. In this paper I shall limit myself entirely to the discussion of dormancy in seeds for three reasons: far more critical and analytical work has been done on dormancy in seeds than ...

Breast cancer metastasis is associated with myeloid cell dysregulation and the lung‐specific accumulation of tumor‐supportive Gr1+ cells. Gr1+ cells support metastasis, in part, through a CHI3L1‐mediated mechanism, which can be targeted and inhibited with cargo‐free, polymeric nanoparticles.

Optimal sliding scale regulation: An application to regional electricity distribution in England and Wales [PDF]
This paper examines optimal price (i.e. ‘sliding scale’) regulation of a monopoly when productivity and managerial effort are not observed. We show how to operationalise this model of incentive regulation and use actual data from electricity distribution

TRPM8 levels determine tumor vulnerability to channel agonists
TRPM8 is a Ca2+ permissive channel. Regardless of the amount of its transcript, high levels of TRPM8 protein mark different tumors, including prostate, breast, colorectal, and lung carcinomas. Targeting TRPM8 with channel agonists stimulates inward calcium currents followed by emptying of cytosolic Ca2+ stores in cancer cells.

Soybean Seed Coat Cracks and Green Seeds—Predisposing Conditions, Identification and Management
Seed coat cracking and green seeds threaten soybean crop production. Seed coat cracking results from a complex interplay of genetic factors, environmental stresses, and crop management practices.
