This protocol describes day 2 of our workflow to grow worms in liquid culture to induce the production of natural products (in this case, 1-HP derivatives). In this protocol, we get an approximate count for the number of life-stage synchronized worms we have, ensure to concentrate them to 30,000 worms/ml, and provide E.coli OP50 for them to be able to progress

This abstract describes how to bleach/synchronize a large mixed-stage population of C. elegans grown on Large Scale Culture Plates (LSCP). For more information on LSCPs, refer to Shaver et al., 2021.

The efforts to win World War II included use of intelligence units whose role was to find and detain German scientists, then interrogate them for information regarding military information that might help the Allies in their war aims. This involved identification of targets by the Combined Intelligence Objectives Subcommittee (CIOS) which were pursued by Target Forces (T-Forces) whose role was to identify and intercept German scientists. The translation of Leuchs' work, as described by the Combined Intelligence Objectives Subcommittee (CIOS), is presented. Specifically described is the prepn. of triphenyltetrazolium chloride. Typing errors (e.g. benzaldyhd for benzaldehyd and triphenyltetrazoliumschlorids for triphenyltetrazoliumchlorids) are seen which survive all the way through the publication process. There were also mistakes in chem. diagrams. The greatest error is a large repetition of German text and structural formula including imperfect copying of hyphenation, presumably of German text by an Anglophone typist. This low quality of interrogation product suggests the original documents were prepd. hurriedly or the German scientists were perfunctory.

This article will address important puzzles about community colleges and their roles with baccalaureate delivery. To that purpose, the article is organized into five key sections. First, the rationale underlying the community college baccalaureate (CCB) and key policy issues will be described. Second, a glossary of terms will be offered to provide a foundation for research about baccalaureate degree programs and models involving community colleges. Third, a national summary of states where community colleges are authorized to confer baccalaureates will be discussed. Florida is home to the largest number of community colleges authorized to confer baccalaureates and will be discussed as an illustrative case of a bellwether movement. The fourth section will build on the first three and discuss issues and challenges for local and state leaders, policymakers, and practitioners to guide program development, future research, and policy exploration at the local, state and federal levels. Finally, our fifth section will offer our closing remarks and summarize briefly key predictions for the future in relation to the nation's CCB movement.

Convective heat transfer problems are of two types: 1. Problems that are solved in a direct and simple manner using heat transfer coefficients. 2. Problems that must be solved in an indirect manner (ie by iteration or trial-and-error) if heat transfer coefficients are used, but can be solved in a direct and simple manner if heat transfer coefficients are not used. Type (1) problems include those in which heat flux is proportional to temperature difference (as in forced convection), and those in which temperature differences are given. Type (2) problems are those in which heat flux is a nonlinear function of temperature difference (as in natural convection, boiling, and condensation), and temperature differences are not given. Engineering curricula should stress that heat transfer coefficient is a contrived and unnecessary parameter, and should include alternative methodology that allows Type (2) problems to be solved in a direct and simple manner. The alternative methodology presented herein is readily grasped by students because problems are solved with the primary variables separated (the methodology learned and used in pure mathematics) rather than combined (as required in heat transfer coefficient methodology). The application of the alternative methodology to the solution of Type (2) problems is demonstrated in the text.

Eighteen years of research using the Happiness Measures (HM) is reviewed in relation to the general progress of well-being measurement efforts. The accumulated findings on this remarkably quick instrument, show good reliability, exceptional stability, and a record of convergent, construct, and discriminative validity unparalleled in the field. Because of this, the HM is offered as a potential touchstone of measurement consistency in a field which generally lacks it.
