“Man-Cub They Call Me”: Mowgli’s Constructed Childhood in Kipling’s Jungle Books
<p>This article approaches Rudyard Kipling’s <em>The Jungle Books</em> and its protagonist, Mowgli, through the perspective of childhood studies. While other scholars have concentrated on the imperial implications of Mowgli’s childhood, I argue that more facets of Mowgli’s childhood, especially …

Aspects of Reproduction and Cub Survival in a Hunted Population of Virginia Black Bears
… black bear (Ursus americanus) reproduction and cub survival during 1994 - 1998, and 1995 - 1999, respectively, in the George Washington and Jefferson National Forests in Virginia to determine age-specific and overall cub production and cub survival. We observed females in estrus between 6 June …

Hydrologic calibration of the Cub Run Watershed using the PC version of the Hydrological Simulation Program - FORTRAN (HSPF)
… basin. The sub-watershed selected was the Cub Run Watershed located in the northern area of the Occoquan River catchment. A model in the form of a User Control Input (UCI) file was prepared. The Cub Run Watershed was analyzed considering its geological, edaphic and weather characteristics, …

Electrostatic and quantum chemical investigation of the proton pumping mechanism of cytochrome c oxidase
… required to reduce oxygen to water at the Fea3 -CuB binuclear center and another four protons are translocated across the membrane. Although several high resolution structures have been solved for this enzyme, the molecular mechanism of the proton pumping and electron transfer is not understood. …

Quantifying Long-Term Hydrologic and NPS Pollutant Response in an Urbanizing Watershed
… delivery characteristics in the urbanizing Cub Run basin are significantly different from adjacent non-urban basins. Higher annual NPS fluxes of total suspended solids (TSS), phosphorus (P), and nitrogen (N) in Cub Run are identified with periods of increased soil disturbance from urban land …

Assessment of Physiological Challenges in Overwintering Black Bears (Ursus americanus): Active Gestation, Neonatal Growth, and Skeletal Muscle Conservation
… is little known about postnatal development of cubs or the influence of maternal traits on embryonic implantation and cub growth. Finally, the role of satellite cells (SCs – stem cells able to regenerate muscle fibers) play in maintaining muscle functionality during hibernating remains …

A Bear's Eye View: Insight on American Black Bear (Ursus americanus) Hibernation and Foraging Ecology in Virginia's Central Appalachian Mountains
… continuous monitoring of mother bears and their cubs from Virginia Tech's Black Bear Research Center in 2015-2016, to better understand hibernation ecology, mother-cub dynamics, and biological-foster cub dynamics. We found that increased black bear activity levels were driven by both higher …

Engineering Myoglobin Into Both a Structural and Functional Model of Nitric Oxide Reductase
… non-heme metal binding sites of HCO (i.e., CuB) and NOR (i.e., FeB) can tune NO activity. In summary, FeBMb is both a structural and functional model of NOR. (Abstract shortened by UMI.).

Characterizing a structural and functional model of nitric oxide reductase performing NO and O2 reduction in engineered myoglobin
… oxidases); however, the copper site (CuB) in HCOs is replaced with a non-heme iron site (FeB) in NOR, and each metal contains a different primary and secondary coordination sphere.1 NOR and HCO also have cross-reactivity, though they are more reactive toward their native substrate. NOR …

Population Ecology of Black Bears in the Alleghany Mountains of Virginia
… high with relatively large litters (mean = 2.49 cubs / litter) and younger (3–4-year-old) females having smaller litters than older (> 5 years old) females. Overall cub sex ratios did not differ from 1M:1F; however, female cubs were over-represented in 4-cub litters. Most cubs were born in …

Rational design of functional heme copper oxidases in myoglobin
… myoglobin, to mimic the bimetallic, heme-CuB site of HCOs. This is the site where molecular oxygen is converted to water as part of cellular respiration. The conversion of oxygen to water is highly difficult as there are many highly reactive intermediates that must stabilized so that the …
