Journal of David McDonald

Handwritten journal of David McDonald who is recognized as the first Professor of Law at Indiana University. The journal is undated but contains a transcribed article from the Cincinnati Gazette dated April 17, 1865. McDonald was born in Millersburg, Kentucky and moved to Indiana when he was 14, in 1817. He eventually became a school teacher in Washington, before meeting a local lawyer who encouraged him to study law. He was licensed to practice in the Circuit Courts in 1830. He served as a member of the Indiana Legislature (1833-34) as well as being elected judge of the 10th Circuit Court in 1841, before joining the University. After retiring in 1852 he was presented with an honorary LL.D. degree. He died August 25, 1869 and is buried at Crown Hill Cemetery in Indianapolis.

The 20 GHz solid state transmitter design, impatt diode development and reliability assessment

A single drift gallium arsenide (GaAs) Schottky barrier IMPATT diode and related components were developed. The IMPATT diode reliability was assessed. A proof of concept solid state transmitter design and a technology assessment study were performed. The transmitter design utilizes technology which, upon implementation, will demonstrate readiness for development of a POC model within the 1982 time frame and will provide an information base for flight hardware capable of deployment in a 1985 to 1990 demonstrational 30/20 GHz satellite communication system. Life test data for Schottky barrier GaAs diodes and grown junction GaAs diodes are described. The results demonstrate the viability of GaAs IMPATTs as high performance, reliable RF power sources which, based on the recommendation made herein, will surpass device reliability requirements consistent with a ten year spaceborne solid state power amplifier mission

Histone deacetylase 9 promotes endothelial to mesenchymal transition and an unfavorable atherosclerotic plaque phenotype

Endothelial-mesenchymal transition (EndMT) is associated with various cardiovascular diseases and in particular with atherosclerosis and plaque instability. However, the molecular pathways that govern EndMT are poorly defined. Specifically, the role of epigenetic factors and histone deacetylases (HDACs) in controlling EndMT and the atherosclerotic plaque phenotype remains unclear. Here, we identified histone deacetylation, specifically that mediated by HDAC9 (a class IIa HDAC), as playing an important role in both EndMT and atherosclerosis. Using in vitro models, we found class IIa HDAC inhibition sustained the expression of endothelial proteins and mitigated the increase in mesenchymal proteins, effectively blocking EndMT. Similarly, ex vivo genetic knockout of Hdac9 in endothelial cells prevented EndMT and preserved a more endothelial-like phenotype. In vivo, atherosclerosis-prone mice with endothelial-specific Hdac9 knockout showed reduced EndMT and significantly reduced plaque area. Furthermore, these mice displayed a more favorable plaque phenotype, with reduced plaque lipid content and increased fibrous cap thickness. Together, these findings indicate that HDAC9 contributes to vascular pathology by promoting EndMT. Our study provides evidence for a pathological link among EndMT, HDAC9, and atherosclerosis and suggests that targeting of HDAC9 may be beneficial for plaque stabilization or slowing the progression of atherosclerotic disease

Total-dose radiation effects data for semiconductor devices. 1985 supplement. Volume 2, part A

Steady-state, total-dose radiation test data, are provided in graphic format for use by electronic designers and other personnel using semiconductor devices in a radiation environment. The data were generated by JPL for various NASA space programs. This volume provides data on integrated circuits. The data are presented in graphic, tabular, and/or narrative format, depending on the complexity of the integrated circuit. Most tests were done using the JPL or Boeing electron accelerator (Dynamitron) which provides a steady-state 2.5 MeV electron beam. However, some radiation exposures were made with a Cobalt-60 gamma ray source, the results of which should be regarded as only an approximate measure of the radiation damage that would be incurred by an equivalent electron dose

The Role of Money in Supporting the Pareto Optimality of Competitive Equilibrium in Consumption-Loan Type Models

Perhaps the single most enduring theme in economics is that of the social desirability of the competitive mechanism. In its modern form, this theme occurs as the two basic theorems of welfare economics (see, in particular, Arrow). Our central concern in this paper is with the validity of the first of these two theorems—that every competitive equilibrium yields a Pareto optimal allocation—in idealized yet plausible models of intertemporal allocation in a market economy

The inhibition of HIV-1 activity by crude mucus and purified mucin (mucous glycoproteins) from saliva, breast milk and the cervical tract of normal subjects, HIV positive individuals and patients with HIV-AIDS

Includes bibliographical references (leaves 140-161).Human saliva, breast milk and cervical secretions contain several non-immunological components including mucins (mucous glycoproteins), which protect the gastrointesinal and female reproductive tracts and breast fed infants from bacterial, viral and fungal infections. In addition to their well known function in lubrication, tissue coating and digestion, mucus and mcins have been used as pathological markers in diseases such as asthma, chronic bronchitis, cystic fibrosis, and carcinomas of the breast, lung and colon. Crude saliva is a also known to inhibit the activity of human immunodeficiency virus (HIV), the causative agent of acquired immunodeficiency syndrome (AIDS). According to the joint United Nations Programme on HIV/AIDS (UNAIDS) worldwide an estimated 38.6 million people were living with HIV in 2005 with 401 million newly infected and 2.8 million deaths. It has been reported that an estimated 24.5 million of the HIV infected people of whom 60% females live in sub-Saharan Africa with the Southern African region having the highest prevalence in Africa. Furthermore the incidence of opportunistic diseases such as TB is also reported to increase with HIV prevalence. Thus far, despite the discovery of highly active antiretroviral therapies which contain both protease and reverse transcriptase inhibitors, HIV remains as a global threat especially to the third world countries. Therefore there is a need for the development of safe compounds to reduce viral loads in infected people and to prevent the transmission of the virus from one individual to another. The search for a suitable vaccine is ongoing

On-Line Oil Condition Monitoring for Marine Gearboxes : This thesis addresses the importance of oil condition monitoring in marine reduction gearboxes and compares the sensitivity and usage of three different sensors, each with its own working principle

Master's thesis in Mechatronics (MAS500)Failures in marine reduction gearboxes lead to substantial costs. With the use of oil condition moni-toring, these failures can be foreseen so that preemptive measures can be taken. The development ofoil condition monitoring equipment has come a long way, and it is time to start using this technology.There are various reasons why a gearbox failure, and as most of them are a result of inadequatelubrication, several things can be done to reduce these failures. By testing 3 different sensors in agearbox lubrication system, this study goes through each sensor technology and aims to figure outwhat is important to consider when selecting a sensor for oil condition monitoring.The sensors discussed and tested are Gill 4212 Oil Condition Monitoring Sensor, Poseidon TridentQW3100, and Parker Kittiwake Metal Wear Debris Sensor. To test these sensors, several experiments,with a variety of added contaminants, are designed to find the strengths and weaknesses of each sensor.In the end, a conclusion is made on how the tested sensors meet those requirements and what can bedone in the future to find an even better sensor configuration to prevent gearbox failures
