Mild pro-p-groups with 4 generators
Let p be an odd prime and S a finite set of primes = 1 mod p. We give an
effective criterion for determining when the Galois group G=G_S(p) of the
maximal p-extension of Q unramified outside of S is mild when |S|=4 and the cup
product H^1(G,Z/pZ) \otimes H^1(G,Z/pZ) --> H^2(G,Z/pZ) is surjective.Comment: 12 pages. No figures. LaTe
Interview with John Roger Stemen, June 26, 2001
John Roger Stemen was interviewed on June 26, 2001 by Michael J. Birkner about his experiences before he became a professor of History at Gettysburg College. He discusses his childhood in Indiana and focuses on his undergraduate education at Yale University and his service in the photolithography unit in Korea. After the war he attended Indiana University and Johns Hopkins University, where he obtained his doctorate.

Hybrid cell lines producing monoclonal antibodies directed against Treponema
Continuous hybrid cell lines for producing monoclonal antibodies directed against antigens of Treponema pallidum have been developed. The hybrid cell lines were established by fusing differentiated lymphoid cells primed with antigens of Treponema pallidum with hybridoma cells. The resulting fused cells were cloned, isolated, cultured and characterized as to antibody specificity against antigenic determinants of Treponema pallidum.Board of Regents, University of Texas Syste
Statistically optimal analysis of samples from multiple equilibrium states
We present a new estimator for computing free energy differences and
thermodynamic expectations as well as their uncertainties from samples obtained
from multiple equilibrium states via either simulation or experiment. The
estimator, which we term the multistate Bennett acceptance ratio (MBAR)
estimator because it reduces to the Bennett acceptance ratio when only two
states are considered, has significant advantages over multiple histogram
reweighting methods for combining data from multiple states. It does not
require the sampled energy range to be discretized to produce histograms,
eliminating bias due to energy binning and significantly reducing the time
complexity of computing a solution to the estimating equations in many cases.
Additionally, an estimate of the statistical uncertainty is provided for all
estimated quantities. In the large sample limit, MBAR is unbiased and has the
lowest variance of any known estimator for making use of equilibrium data
collected from multiple states. We illustrate this method by producing a highly
precise estimate of the potential of mean force for a DNA hairpin system,
combining data from multiple optical tweezer measurements under constant force
bias.Comment: 13 pages (including appendices), 1 figure, LaTe
A Theological Context of Work from the Catholic Social Encyclical Tradition
This article draws upon 100 years of writings which are referred to as the Catholic Social Tradition (CST). Using this tradition as a guide, the nature of work is explored along with the principles and virtues which vitalize the deepest dimension of work — how it affects the dignity of the human person. It develops five operational ethical principles which can be applied to questions of workplace ethics. Organizational policies and programs that seem consistent with CST are also discussed.

Horticultural Studies 1999
Horticultural Studies 1999 is the second edition of a Research Series dedicated to horticultural programs in the University of Arkansas Division of Agriculture and the Dale Bumpers College of Agricultural, Food and Life Sciences. This publication summarizes research, extension, and educational activities that serve horticultural industries and interest groups in Arkansas. The goals of this publication are to provide relevant information to the growers and end-users of horticulture crops in Arkansas and to inform the citizens of Arkansas and the surrounding region of activities related to horticulture
A New Family of Cavernicolous Millipedes with the Description of a New Genus and Species from Idaho (Diplopoda: Chordeumida: Chordeumidea)
The Chordeumidea is accumulating species names faster than any other group of North American Diplopoda. About one-half its species, 47, have been described since 1950. This recent growth has occurred because the small size, localized populations, and, frequently, cave habitus of these millipeds have obstructed thorough collection in the past. These factors have only recently been overcome by comprehensive collecting. As a result of this rapidgrowth and the many artificial groupings which result from it, much organization of the higher classification remains to be done. Hoffman (1961) emphasizes that co- operation between workers, more thorough descriptions, more accurate illustrations, and revisions are necessary if a proper classification is to be attained.
Described herein is a new cave form unique among the known North American Chordeumidea. Related to Cleidogonidae, Conotylidae, and Bactropidae, it is distinguished from these families by having the ninth legs reduced and unsegmented. This species represents the type of a new family, which we name after the state in which it was collected
