...Kobko, PhD (Room 1320HN) Sec 02: Ravichandra Bachu, PhD (Room TBA) Email: nkobko@hunter.cuny.edu Email: rbachu@hunter.cuny.edu Office Hours: We 4 to 7 pm (or by appt.) Office Hours: TBA (1403HN, Sa) Goal of the course: This is the second semester of a 2-semester general chemistry sequence that you began in Chem 102 last semester. In Chem 104 we will cover the topics of kinetics, equilibrium, acids and bases, buffers, complex ions, thermodynamics, electrochemistry and nuclear chemistry. Chem 104 is a demanding course (more so than Chem 102) and to achieve success in this course you will need to organize large quantities of information in coherent ways so that you are able to recall and apply your knowledge. In addition you will have to learn to organize your time efficiently. And the mathematics is more demanding than in Chem 102! This semester general chemistry is run using a flipped classroom model. In this model you will watch videos and complete online homework at home and then come to class to complete workshop assignments (during your recitation section) and participate in peer-learning activities using an iClicker (during lecture every Friday). On Tuesdays during lecture we will stream the class videos for the week. This class is an optional component of the course. You should plan to spend at least 10-15 hours per week watching videos, doing your online homework, engaging with your classmates and learning the material. It is your responsibility to prepare yourself for every...

Thomas Barclaya, Milena Ginic-Markovica, Peter Cooperb,c, Nikolai Petrovskyc,d a Flinders University, Adelaide, Australia 5042 Cancer Research Laboratory, ANU Medical School at the Canberra Hospital, Australian National University, Canberra, Australia 2605 c Vaxine Pty Ltd, Flinders Medical Centre, Adelaide Australia 5042 d Department of Endocrinology, Flinders Medical Centre, Adelaide, Australia 5042 b Received: 27 August 2010 Accepted: 10 October 2010 ABSTRACT á-D-glucopyranosyl-[â-D-fructofuranosyl](n-1)-D-fructofuranoside, commonly referred to as inulin, is a natural plant-derived polysaccharide with a diverse range of food and pharmaceutical applications. It is used by the food industry as a soluble dietary fibre and fat or sugar replacement, and in the pharmaceutical industry as a stabiliser and excipient. It can also be used as a precursor in the synthesis of a wide range of compounds. New uses for inulin are constantly being discovered, with recent research into its use for slow-release drug delivery. Inulin, when in a particulate form, possesses anti-cancer and immune enhancing properties. Given its increasing importance to industry, this review explains how inulin's unique physico-chemical properties bestow it with many useful pharmaceutical applications.

...Sri Lankan Journal of Human Resource Management Sri Lankan Journal of Human Resource Management Vol.2, No.1 2008 Sharing the Pie: Trade Unionism and Industrial Relations in Multinationals in Bangladesh Monowar Hossain Mahmood East West University Bangladesh Abstract Using the ‘convergence-divergence’ thesis as the baseline for the study of industrial relations and trade union activities in multinational subsidiaries, the present study tried to investigate extent of the trade union activities and IR practices of MNCs in a developing country context, i.e. Bangladesh, as well as influence of the MNCs on trade unions and IR activities within the existing social and economic contexts. The study revealed that comparative power dominance of multinationals over the host country industrial relations actors emerge as the vital factor in employer-union bargaining process, as well as their capacity to manipulate the existing bargaining process also helped them to implement their desired practices in Bangladesh. However, multinationals were not in confronting mode at all the circumstances, but their potential lobbying power created difficulties for the employees and the trade unions to develop countervailing power in the collective bargaining process and IR activities. Keywords: Convergence-Divergence, Bangladesh, Multinationals, Trade Unions Introduction Empirical studies of international human resource management (IHRM) often reveal that industrial relations practices...

Key Words energy focusing, nonlinear dynamics, complexity, hydrodynamics gas bubble, continuum mechanics, shock shape instabilities, chemical hydrodynamics Abstract Sonoluminescence, the transduction of sound into light, is a phenomenon that pushes fluid mechanics beyond its limit. An initial state with long wavelength and low Mach number, such as is realized for a gas bubble driven by an audible sound field, spontaneously focuses the energy density so as to generate supersonic motion and a different phase of matter, from which are then emitted picosecond flashes of broad-band UV light. Although the most rational picture of sonoluminescence involves the creation of a ‘‘cold’’ dense plasma by an imploding shock wave, neither the imploding shock nor the plasma has been directly observed. Attempts to attack sonoluminescence from the perspective of continuum mechanics have led to interesting issues related to bubble shape oscillations, shock shape instabilities, and shock propagation through nonideal media, and chemical hydrodynamics.

...design crops that can produce food and other raw materials for the increasing world population. Increased UV-B exposure has the potential to damage DNA, generate reactive oxygen species (ROS) and disrupt cellular process in many plant species [10]. Specifically, the primary deleterious effects of increased UV-B occur on the efficiency of the photosynthetic apparatus and the reduction of photosynthetic genes. Damage to the thylakoid membrane and destruction of chlorophyll (Fig. 6) along with the decrease in the amount of photosynthesis are also attributed to over exposure of UV-B [9]Moreover, in the chloroplast thylakoid membrane the D1 and D2 proteins of photosystem II (water-plastoquinone oxidoreductase complex) are rapidly degraded in course of UV-B irradiation [9]. Under conditions where UV-B impairs photosynthetic electron transport, excess ROS would likely be generated by a reduced ability to dissipate excitation energy causing extreme damage to the cell...

Discovery in Labor Arbitration Laura J.Cooper* The mere statement of the topic, discovery in labor arbitration, suggests a paradox. Is not the essence of the arbitration process an effort to avoid the procedural complexities that make litigation comparatively slow and costly? More than forty years ago, Learned Hand admonished a litigant distressed with the procedural failings of an arbitration proceeding: Arbitration may or may not be a desirable substitute for trials in courts; as to that the parties must decide in each instance. But when they have adopted it, they must be content with its informalities; they may not hedge it about with those procedural limitations which it is precisely its purpose...
