Bumbling Biddies and Drunken Pats: Anti-Irish Humor in Antebellum New Orleans
The Irish in New Orleans have been a notoriously understudied group. With the third largest Irish population in the country by 1860, New Orleans is crucial when trying to understand the Irish immigrant experience. Viewing the Irish from the public perspective, this study explores the Daily …

The Impact of Ivermectin Treatment in Cattle on Dung Degradation and Fauna Abundance and Diversity in Tanzania
… in the environment. We placed standardized dung pats from ivermectin-treated and control cattle to determine the effect of ivermectin on dung degradation and dung fauna in Tanzania. For the dung degradation study, at 15, 30 and 45 days post placement, we observed a total of 220 dung pats in the …

The Cattle Dung Arthropod Community in Eastern South Dakota: Their Colonization, Impact on Degradation, and Response to Rangeland Management
… arthropod community that inhabits cattle dung pats. This diverse community works together to recycle dung pats and make the nutrients in dung accessible to the surrounding plant community, an essential role in the functionality of rangelands. The research within this thesis describes the …

The role of auxin transport in the control of shoot branching
… access to the polar auxin transport stream (PATS) in the main stem. The PATS provides directional, long distance transport of auxin down the stem, involving basal localisation of the auxin transporter PIN-FORMED1 (PIN1). Buds need to export their auxin across the stem towards the PATS in …

Context for semantic similarity calculation in scenario template creation
… measure for predicate-argument tuples (PATs). I hypothesize that the semantic similarity between two PATs can also be reflected by their extrinsic similarity. I show experimentally that there is strong correlation between such an extrinsic similarity and the semantic similarity of PATs. …

Develoment and Application of Chemical Strategies to Study Protein Fatty-Acylation in Eukaryotes
… the highly redundant palmitoyl acyltransferases (PATs) remains unresolved. To study the regulation of PATs and palmitoylomes, I developed bioorthogonal chemical strategies for improved analysis of dynamic palmitoylation in mammalian cells. I showed that alkyne-functionalized fatty acids, in …

High Performance Disulfonated Poly(arylene Sulfone) Co- and Terpolymers For Proton Exchange Membranes For Fuel Cell And Transducer Applications: Synthesis, Characterization And Fabrication Of Ion Conducting Membranes
… disulfonated poly(arylene thioether sulfone) (PATS) copolymers were easily obtained using the SDFDPS monomers, but in general, slower rates and a lower molecular weight copolymer was obtained using the analogous chlorinated monomers. Tough and ductile membranes were solution cast from …

Young people, situated learning, and peace praxis at the margins of everyday life
… and deliberate peace affirming tactics (PATs), consisting of how they spoke about their relationships to people around them, and how they are socialised into peace skills; and their deliberate and random tactics for peace as social coherence shaped by ideas of equality, respect, and …

Using Feedback Dialogue in Personal Tutorials to Support International Student Attainment
… intervention named Personal Academic Tutorials (PATs). The first cycle involved one course with subsequent cycles widening the scope across the business school to 8 undergraduate and 11 postgraduate courses seeking validation for the intervention. Through an iterative design of PedAR, the largely …

Structure-function studies of human SLC36 amino acid transporters
… human Proton coupled Amino acid Transporters (hPATs).This is due to hPATs 1 and 2 having been functionally characterized as proton coupled transporters that bring about a 1:1 symport of H+ and an amino acid across the membrane (with optimum uptake at an extracellular pH of 5.5). Their main …

Environmental Fate of Ivermectin and its biological metabolites in Soils: Potential implications for the Environmental Impact of Ivermectin Mass Drug Administration for Malaria Control
… 24OH were found to degrade rapidly when cattle pats when exposed to the field. Since we conducted our study in the Summer, no IVM or its metabolites leached into the soil beneath. The obtained half-lives suggest that ivermectin's massive drug administration has little to worry about, primarily …

Transport and Structure in Fuel Cell Proton Exchange Membranes
… of sulfonated poly(arylene thioether sulfone) (PATS). Low molecular weight (IV ~ 0.69) copolymers absorbed more water on the same ion exchange capacity basis than the high molecular weight copolymers (IV ~ 1.16). Surprisingly, protonic conductivity of the two series was similar. Moreover, the …

The corporate plaza and the office tower: The potential for a mutualistic space-form relationship
… should have a sense of continuity and appear as pats of a whole. To achieve this sense of continuity, the design of the plaza space needs to reflect/incorporate the elements that contribute to the strong physical image of the skyscraper as means of reinforcing the image of the skyscraper that is …
