    In Memory of Dr. Ali Al-Gritly (1913-1982): His Views on Egypt's experience with Socialism

    This essay reexamines the great contributions made by Dr. Ali Al-Gritly to Egypt. He was the finance minister for a short period at the beginning of the 1950s and later was appointed as chairman of the Bank of Alexandria. In 1966, he completed a book (Al-Gritly [1966 (1974)]) on the economic history of Egypt. However, the book was banned from publication due to irresistible circumstances. At that time, with Arab Socialism on the ascendance, his views on certain policies were not welcomed by the top political hierarchy. In 1974, the book was finally allowed to be published, and he wrote and published another book in 1977 (Al-Gritly [1977]) on the development of the Open Door Policy and the new economic policies accompanying it.Egypt, Economic history, Economic policy, Socialism, Al-Grity, Ali, Socialist transformation, Family planning, Democratic socialism

    This paper describes and analyzes the major features of economic development and poverty reduction in Egypt during its transition to a market Economy.It focuses on the changes in the situation of poverty and economic policies pursued as remedies by the government of Egypt and the ruling NDP.Sustainable development and poverty reduction is the core of the President Mubarak’s election campaign for his fifth term for the presidency.We attempt to explain the obstacles encountered by the Egyptian economy in terms of adjustments and general economic arguments on poverty. Finally, we refer to the necessity for enhanced accountability in the society to accomplish the goal

    Note on the Regularity of Nonadditive Measures

    Get PDF
    We consider the regularity for nonadditive measures. We prove that the non-additive measures which satisfy Egoroff's theorem and have pseudometric generating property possess Radon property (strong regularity) on a complete or a locally compact, separable metric space

    On-Demand Density Correction Using Steady-State Plasmas in the LHD Thomson Scattering

    Get PDF
    In order to measure reliable electron densities of fusion plasmas by using Thomson scattering system, both accurate absolute calibration and long-term stability in the system are required. Even if slight misalignment of some optics occurs, it may cause large errors in measured densities. We propose a new method to obtain correctionfactors to the errors originated from misalignment by using steady-state plasma discharges. In addition to the datacorrection, realignment of the laser beam can be applied als

    Genome-wide profiling of promoter methylation in human

    DNA methylation in the promoter region of a gene is associated with a loss of that gene's expression and plays an important role in gene silencing. The inactivation of tumor-suppressor genes by aberrant methylation in the promoter region is well recognized in carcinogenesis. However, there has been little study in this area when it comes to genome-wide profiling of the promoter methylation. Here, we developed a genome-wide profiling method called Microarray-based Integrated Analysis of Methylation by Isoschizomers to analyse the DNA methylation of promoter regions of 8091 human genes. With this method, resistance to both the methylation-sensitive restriction enzyme HpaII and the methylation-insensitive isoschizomer MspI was compared between samples by using a microarray with promoter regions of the 8091 genes. The reliability of the difference in HpaII resistance was judged using the difference in MspI resistance. We demonstrated the utility of this method by finding epigenetic mutations in cancer. Aberrant hypermethylation is known to inactivate tumour suppressor genes. Using this method, we found that frequency of the aberrant promoter hypermethylation in cancer is higher than previously hypothesized. Aberrant hypomethylation is known to induce activation of oncogenes in cancer. Genome-wide analysis of hypomethylated promoter sequences in cancer demonstrated low CG/GC ratio of these sequences, suggesting that CpG-poor genes are sensitive to demethylation activity in cancer
