Rapid Design and Manufacture of Ultralight Cellular Materials
This paper details the design, manufacture and testing of regular metallic lattice structures
with unit cell sizes in the range 0.8mm to 5mm and truss elements of 100-500 µm in diameter [1].
The structures were manufactured using Selective Laser Melting (SLM) technology from 316L
stainless steel. Compression tests have shown yield loadings of over 3.5kN despite being only
18mm by 18mm by 10mm in height, the results are favourably comparable to current
commercially available metallic foams. Software has been developed that creates slice files
without the use of CAD software or STL files and is capable of producing lattices within a
volume defined by a STL file.Mechanical Engineerin
A Study of the Effects of Implementing Instructional Verbal Analysis on Self-Assessment by Student Teachers
Evidence—Cross Examination of Defendant\u27s Character Witness—Scope
D was convicted of second degree burglary. During the cross examination of three character witnesses for the defense, the prosecuting attorney asked, over the objections of the defense, the following questions: Did you know that in 1941 D had is operator\u27s license suspended? , Did you know that D spent twelve days in jail and was fined twenty-five dollars for drunkenness on January 10, 1949? and Did you know D was given twenty days for vagrancy in the city jail of Walla Walla? Held: The form of the questions was proper as long as it was not for the purpose of discerditing the person on trial. State v. Cyr, 40 Wn. 2d 840, 246 P2d 480 (1952)
Establishing Governmental Legitimacy in Iraq: The Path to Protecting Human Rights
Rule of law is essential for ensuring the protection of human rights in post-conflict societies. Contention and disagreements, however, often arise regarding the best ways to establish rule of law in a reconstructive state. It is a vital prerequisite to rule of law that a government be viewed as legitimate. Following an armed conflict, the restoration of basic services and infrastructure is essential for instilling confidence that the government is legitimate and is capable of providing for the needs of the local populace. The essential services include water, electricity, and security on a consistent basis. In order to ensure ongoing respect for the rule of law, the state must possess a monopoly on the use of force. Once a government has established itself as legitimate and capable of enforcing the law, human rights violations can be prevented. It remains unclear, however, as to what processes should be pursued in establishing legitimacy
The perception of the students of the Career of Medicine at University of Buenos Aires on the treatment of abortion in a medical education
El objetivo del siguiente artÃculo es indagar cómo es el tratamiento del aborto y su atención, en la Carrera de Medicina de la UBA. Para ello, se hará hincapié en tres dimensiones. La primera, consiste en el análisis de los emergentes de la mencionada Carrera a la luz de las legislaciones, y regulaciones que promueven Derechos Sexuales como parte fundamental de los Derechos Humanos (DDHH). La segunda estriba en el análisis de tales emergentes en relación a discontinuidades y rupturas con lo que se definirá como Modelo Médico Hegemónico (MMH). Por último, se indagará en las polÃticas, representaciones y prácticas respecto al misoprostol. Esta investigación es de carácter cualitativo. El corpus analizado consiste en entrevistas semi-estructuradas a 24 estudiantes de la mencionada Carrera y en regulaciones vigentes emitidas tanto por organismos médicos nacionales, latinoamericanos e internacionales. Como resultados preliminares se destacan, primero, la escasa permeabilidad en la Carrera de las regulaciones vigentes, los conocimientos y actualizaciones farmacológicas expresadas en los documentos emitidos por organismos médicos nacionales, latinoamericanos e internacionales en los últimos 10 años. En segundo lugar, resalta la predominancia de un silencio o vacÃo en la currÃcula en relación al aborto. Este silencio no es inocuo, sino que tiene efectos concretos: no garantizar el cumplimiento con el marco de DDHH vigentes en Argentina. Por último, el desconocimiento sobre el misoprostol y su amplia utilidad en el campo gineco-obstétrico refuerza la asimetrÃa en la relación médico/a-paciente y una idea de aborto medicalizado que, por lo tanto, robustece al MMH.The aim of this article is to investigate how the approach to abortion and attention in the Career of Medicine of the UBA. To do this, it will emphasize three dimensions. The first is the analysis of emerging Career in light of the laws and regulations that promote sexual rights as a fundamental part of Human Rights (HR). The second analysis is to emerging regarding such discontinuities and ruptures thereby be defined as Hegemonic Medical Model (MMH). Finally, he will inquire into policies, representations and practices regarding misoprostol. This research is qualitative. The corpus analyzed consists of semi-structured interviews to 24 students mentioned Career and national, Latin American and international medical organizations regulations. As preliminary results stand, first, the low permeability in the Career of the regulations, knowledge and pharmacological updates expressed in documents issued by national medical, Latin American and international agencies the past 10 years. Secondly, it highlights the predominance of silence or void in the curriculum in relation to abortion. This silence is not harmless, but has specific effects: not ensure compliance with the human rights framework in force in Argentina. Finally, ignorance about misoprostol and its broad utility in obstetrics and gynecology field reinforces the asymmetry in the medical / a-patient relationship and a sense of medicalized abortion, therefore, strengthens the MMH.Fil: Mines Cuenya, Ana.

Risk of suicide during treatment with venlafaxine, italopram, fluoxetine, and dothiepin : retrospective cohort study
Objective To compare the risk of suicide in adults usingthe
antidepressant venlafaxine compared with citalopram,
fluoxetine, and dothiepin.
Design Retrospective cohort study. Setting UK General Practice Research Database. Participants 219 088 patients, aged 18-89 years, who were prescribed venlafaxine, citalopram, fluoxetine, or dothiepin from 1995 to 2005.
Main outcome measures Completed suicide and attempted
suicide.
Results Venlafaxine users had a higher burden of risk factors for suicide, includingprevious suicide attempts and proxies for severe depression or depression that was difficult to treat. In the analysis for completed suicides, unadjusted and adjusted hazard ratios for venlafaxine compared with citalopram were 2.44 (95% confidence interval 1.12 to 5.31) and 1.70 (0.76 to 3.80), for venlafaxine compared with fluoxetine were 2.85 (1.37 to 5.94) and 1.63 (0.74 to 3.59), and for venlafaxine compared with dothiepin were 2.54 (1.07 to 6.02) and 1.31 (0.53 to 3.25).
Compared with other study drugs, venlafaxine was also
associated with an increased risk of attempted suicide, but
adjustment for measured confounders substantially reduced the hazard ratios.
Conclusions Venlafaxine use was consistently associated with
higher risk of suicide compared with citalopram, fluoxetine, and dothiepin. Venlafaxine users had a higher burden of suicide risk factors, however, and adjustment for measured confounders substantially reduced the excess risks. Since the secondary data used in this analysis allowed only indirect and partial measurements of potential confounders, it is possible that residual confounding explains much, if not all, of the observed
excess risk
