Randy’s bike tire was flat. He couldn’t find the pump because the garage was in disorder. “It’s hopeless,” said Randy. “I’ll never make it to the soccer game on time.”

“That’s nonsense,” said his brother Jake. “You can use my bike.”

“Gee, thanks,” said Randy, hopping on the bike.

“See, I can be likable!” said Jake with a grin.

Dengue and Dengue Hemorrhagic FeverDengue fever, a very old disease, has reemerged in the past 20 years with an

expanded geographic distribution of both the viruses and the mosquito vectors, increased epidemic activity, the development of hyperendemicity (the cocirculation of multiple serotypes), and the emergence of dengue hemorrhagic fever in new geographic regions. In 1998 this mosquito-borne disease is the most important tropical infectious disease after malaria, with an estimated 100 million cases of dengue fever, 500,000 cases of dengue hemorrhagic fever, and 25,000 deaths annually. The reasons for this resurgence and emergence of dengue hemorrhagic fever in the waning years of the 20th century are complex and not fully understood, but demographic, societal, and public health infrastructure changes in the past 30 years have contributed greatly. This paper reviews control. A major challenge for public health officials in all the changing epidemiology of dengue and dengue hemorrhagic fever by geographic region, the natural history and transmission cycles, clinical diagnosis of both dengue fever and dengue hemorrhagic fever, serologic and virologic laboratory diagnoses, pathogenesis, surveillance, prevention, and opical areas of the world is to devleop and implement sustainable prevention and control programs that will reverse the trend of emergent dengue hemorrhagic fever.

Let’s summarize the text:The paper discuss issues related to the changing epidemiology

of dengue and dengue hemorrhagic fever by geographic region.According to the paper Dengue fever is a very old disease that

reemerged in the last 20 years and as a consequence increased epidemic activity in new geographic regions.

The author states that the reasons for the resurgence and emergence of dengue hemorrhagic fever are complex and not fully understood, but according to the paper demographic, societal, and public health infrastructure changes in the past 30 years have contributed greatly.

The New Woman in Victorian LiteratureThe Victorian era was defined as a series of changes in regards

to the social, political and moral aspects of England during the nineteenth century. Many works during the Victorian period such as Sarah Stickney Ellis’ The Women of England: Their Social Duties and Domestic Habits, Coventry Patmore’s The Angel in the House, and John Ruskin’s Of Queens’ Gardens show a complex understanding of the intricate practices constituting Victorian women’s lives and reveal the domestic ideology of the time. In Jane Eyre by Charlotte Bronte, Lady Audley’s Secret by Mary Elizabeth Braddon and The Woman in White by Wilkie Collins the reader is able to see the tensions of the era regarding the Woman Question; in particular, the focus within these novels is on the woman as working for or against the conservative principles of the Victorian Era. The characters of Jane Eyre, Lucy Audley, and Marian Halcombe work against the conventions of idealized femininity during the Victorian era as described in the majority of the works of the time.

Inhibitory Effects of Brazilian Propolis on Lipid Accumulation in 3T3-L1 Cells

We here investigated the inhibitory effect of Brazilian propolis on intracellular lipid accumulation. Seven ethanolic extracts of Brazilian propolis were tested for their inhibitory effect on intracellular lipid accumulation in 3T3-L1 cells. Among the seven Brazilian propolis, the extracts AF-08 and AF-18 had inhibitory effects on intracellular lipid accumulation. In particular, the Brazilian propolis AF-08 exhibited a potential inhibitory effect on intracellular lipid accumulation.Thus, these results suggest that the Brazilian propolis AF-08 contributes to the prevention of metabolic syndrome. In addition, five known triterpenoids were isolated from the Brazilian propolis AF-08: betulonic acid, moronic acid, 3-oxo oleanolic acid, masticadienonic acid, and anwnweizonic acid. Four of the triterpenoids exhibited an inhibitory effect on intracellular lipid accumulation. Thus, these triterpenoids may be important as antiobesity agents that inhibit the metabolic syndrome

Plant genetic engineering for biofuel production: towards affordable cellulosic ethanolBiofuels provide a potential route to avoiding the global

political instability and environmental issues that arise from reliance on petroleustarch m. Currently, most biofuel is in the form of ethanol generated from or sugar, but this can meet only a limited fraction of global fuel requirements. Conversion of cellulosic biomass, which is both abundant and renewable, is a promising alternative. However, the cellulases and pretreatment processes involved are very expensive. Genetically engineering plants to produce cellulases and hemicellulases, and to reduce the need for pretreatment processes through lignin modification, are promising paths to solving this problem, together with other strategies, such as increasing plant polysaccharide content and overall biomass.

Research on Teaching and Teacher Research: The Issues That Divide Neither interpretive nor process-product classroom research has foregrounded

the teacher's role in the generation of knowledge about teaching. What is missing from the knowledge base for teaching, therefore, are the voices of the teachers themselves, the questions teachers ask, the ways teachers use writing and intentional talk in their work lives, and the interpretive frames teachers use to understand and improve their own classroom practices. Limiting the official knowledge base for teaching to what academics have chosen to study and write about has contributed to a number of problems, including discontinuity between what is taught in universities and what is taught in classrooms, teachers' ambivalence about the claims of academic research, and a general lack of information about classroom life from a truly emic perspective. This article proposes that teacher research has the potential to provide this perspective; however, several critical issues divide teacher research from research on teaching and make it difficult for the university-based community to acknowledge its potential. The article also proposes that in order to encourage teacher research, the educational community will need to address incentives for teachers, the creation and maintenance of supportive networks, the reform of organizational patterns in schools, and the hierarchical power relationships that characterize much of schooling.

Expanding Agribusiness: China and Brazil in Ghanaian AgricultureThis article examines the extent, framing and structure

of Chinese and Brazilian investments in Ghana. It outlines the changing political economy of the agrarian sector, in the context of market liberalisation and the rise of agribusiness. The article examines the specificities of Chinese agricultural investments in Ghana in relation to wider investments and Chinese interests in the country. It also examines Brazilian investments within the Ghanaian agricultural sector in relation to the expansion of Brazilian agribusiness and its integration into the global economy. Finally, it discusses the impact of these developments on Ghanaian agriculture and society

Accounting Anomalies and Fundamental Analysis: A Review of Recent Research Advances

This paper surveys recent research advances in the areas of accounting anomalies fundamental analysis.

We use investor forecasting activity as an organizing framework for the three main parts of our survey. The first part of the survey highlights recent research advances. The second part presents findings from a questionnaire given to investment professionals and academics on the topics of fundamental analysis and anomalies research. The final part outlines several new empirical techniques for evaluating accounting anomalies and suggests directions for future research.
