Synthetics

Cotton is still the nation\u27s number one textile fiber, but its top position is being threatened by an upsurging parade of synthetics. The reason for the success of these new synthetic fibers is that they offer better combinations of properties not found in the naturals

Part Synthetic Rugs Are Up in Quality, Down in Price

Amazing new combinations of beauty and worth have been reached with the 1951 collection of rugs and carpets. Not only easy to live with, easy to look at, and easy to care for, the new rugs are also easy on the pocketbook. Striking combinations of colors, patterns and materials lend their decorative effect

Maximize How You Supervise: Report of the 2016 ASHA Ad Hoc Committee on Supervision Training

The success of existing and future audiologists and speech-language pathologists is dependent on skilled supervision. This session presents the findings of the ASHA Ad Hoc Committee on Supervision Training, including resources to enhance supervisor/preceptor skills and strategies for growing a culture of expectation for such training

Finishing the euchromatic sequence of the human genome

The sequence of the human genome encodes the genetic instructions for human physiology, as well as rich information about human evolution. In 2001, the International Human Genome Sequencing Consortium reported a draft sequence of the euchromatic portion of the human genome. Since then, the international collaboration has worked to convert this draft into a genome sequence with high accuracy and nearly complete coverage. Here, we report the result of this finishing process. The current genome sequence (Build 35) contains 2.85 billion nucleotides interrupted by only 341 gaps. It covers ∼99% of the euchromatic genome and is accurate to an error rate of ∼1 event per 100,000 bases. Many of the remaining euchromatic gaps are associated with segmental duplications and will require focused work with new methods. The near-complete sequence, the first for a vertebrate, greatly improves the precision of biological analyses of the human genome including studies of gene number, birth and death. Notably, the human enome seems to encode only 20,000-25,000 protein-coding genes. The genome sequence reported here should serve as a firm foundation for biomedical research in the decades ahead
