2-Amino­ethanaminium iodide

The title salt, [NH3CH2CH2NH2]+·I−, has an array structure based on strong inter­molecular N—H⋯N hydrogen bonding formed between the ammonium and amine groups of adjacent cations. This inter­action gives a helical chain of cations that runs parallel to the b axis. The four remaining NH group H atoms all form hydrogen bonds to the iodide anion, and these iodide anions lie in channels parallel to the cation–cation chains

The cobalt(II) salt of the azo dye Orange G

Crystallizing the cobalt(II) salt of the azo dye Orange G from water was found to give the solvent-separated ion-pair species hexa­aqua­cobalt(II) 7-oxo-8-(2-phenyl­hydrazin-1-ylidene)-7,8-dihydro­naphthalene-1,3-disulfonate tetra­hydrate, [Co(H2O)6](C16H10N2O7S2)·4H2O. The asymmetric unit of the cobalt(II) salt contains three independent octa­hedral [Co(OH2)6]2+ cations, three azo anions, all with similar configurations, and 12 uncoordinated water mol­ecules. The structure is closely related to that of one of the known magnesium analogues. Both structures have Z′ = 3, feature nearly planar azo anions [maximum displacement of azo-N atoms from the plane of the phenyl ring = 0.058 (7) Å] in their hydrazone tautomeric form, form layer structures with hydro­philic and hydro­phobic layers alternating along the b-axis direction, and are stabilized by an extensive network of hydrogen bonds.

catena-Poly[[(nitrito-κ2 O,O′)silver(I)]-μ-1,2-bis­[1-(pyridin-4-yl)ethyl­idene]hydrazine-κ2 N:N′]

The asymmetric unit of the title compound, [Ag(NO2)(C14H14N4)]n, contains half of the repeating formula unit (Z′ = 1/2). The AgI ion lies on a twofold rotation axis. The primary structure consists of a one-dimensional coordination polymer formed by the AgI ions and the bipyridyl azine ligand in which there is an inversion center at the mid-point of the N—N bond. The nitrite anion inter­acts with the AgI ion through a chelating μ2 inter­action involving both O atoms. In the crystal, the coordination chains are parallel and inter­act through Ag⋯π [3.220 (2) Å] and π–π [3.489 (3) Å] inter­actions

The end of imperialism? : theory and method in the study of decolonisation

In the study of international relations in the post-war period two major areas of concern have been identified: the confrontation between the United States and the Soviet Union, and the gulf between wealthy and poor states. Associated with the latter is the phenomenon of decolonisation. Marxists, Western scholars, and other structuralists have all contributed to divergent analytical frameworks for analysing the relationship between decolonisation and imperialism. The principal disjuncture centres on whether or not imperialism ends with decolonisation. Time series analysis and the quasi-experimental interrupted time series design, in particular, are employed to test the theoretical perspectives, using the New Zealand example. Having outlined New Zealand's experience as a colonial power, cultural and economic imperialism are selected as variables and indicators are developed for them. Data are collected and analysed, with the result that New Zealand maintains its economic relationship with its former colonies after independence, but cultural imperialism declines. The results are used to assess both the implications for New Zealand and its relationship with Western Samoa, the Cook Islands and Niue, and for each of the theoretical perspectives. Finally, areas of potentially valuable research are identified as are the likely limitations imposed through lack of data, and inconsistency of data when dealing with several cases. The question II the end of imperialism?" is deserving of more research

Pumps and Watering Systems for Managed Beef Grazing (2000)

Water for beef cattle may come from wells, ponds, creeks, springs or public water supplies, although the last of these sources can be too costly for watering a large herd year-round. Wells are a prime source of water at the farmstead. However, cattle on pasture are usually watered from surface sources in Missouri. Keeping the animals from entering the water source will generally maintain higher water quality and result in better livestock production.New 10/00/7M; Reviewed 4/0

1-Benz­yloxy-4-(2-nitro­ethen­yl)benzene

The title compound, C15H13NO3, crystallizes with three independent mol­ecules per asymmetric unit (Z′ = 3). One of these mol­ecules is found to have a configuration with a greater twist between its two aromatic rings than the other two [compare 70.26 (13) and 72.31 (12)° with 84.22 (12)°]. There are also differences in the number and nature of the weak inter­molecular C—H⋯O contacts formed by each of the three mol­ecules

Perceptions of High Integrity Can Persist after Deception: How Implicit Beliefs Moderate Trust Erosion

Scholars have assumed that trust is fragile: difficult to build and easily broken. We demonstrate, however, that in some cases trust is surprisingly robust—even when harmful deception is revealed, some individuals maintain high levels of trust in the deceiver. In this paper, we describe how implicit theories moderate the harmful effects of revealed deception on a key component of trust: perceptions of integrity. In a negotiation context, we show that people who hold incremental theories (beliefs that negotiating abilities are malleable) reduce perceptions of their counterpart’s integrity after they learn that they were deceived, whereas people who hold entity theories (beliefs that negotiators’ characteristics and abilities are fixed) maintain their first impressions after learning that they were deceived. Implicit theories influenced how targets interpreted evidence of deception. Individuals with incremental theories encoded revealed deception as an ethical violation; individuals with entity theories did not. These findings highlight the importance of implicit beliefs in understanding how trust changes over time
