definition, suppose f(x) and g(x) are two functions defined on some subset of the real numbers. We write f(x) = O(g(x)) (or f(x) = O(g(x)) for x -> C such that |f(x)| to be more precise) if and only if there exist constants N and C |g(x)| for all x>N. Intuitively, this means that f does not grow faster than g. If a is some real number, we write f(x) = O(g(x)) for x -> a if and only if there exist constants d > 0 and C such that |f(x)| C |g(x)| for all x with |x-a| < d

Should stem cell transplants be done? An in-depth look into stem cell transplants and cancers they can cure. Shannon Lamkins Western Governors University WGU Student ID # 000257114 Stem cell transplants are often one of the last choices a patient has to survive cancer. All have already gone through chemotherapy, radiation therapy or both and this is the next step in their treatment. Patients have two choices in transplants autologous or allogeneic. In

and Alzheimer’s disease. Due to the high incidence of relapse and treatment failure of current therapies, it is vitally important that medical science looks further into the modulation of the other neurotransmitters involved. Aim: To report one case that illustrates a novel presentation of treatment resistant schizophrenia, that through extensive investigation produced a diagnosis of anti-NMDA antibody encephalitis. Clinical details and outcome: The patient had experienced extensive treatment

feedstock for furfural have been discussed in brief. Several strategies including solvent extraction in a biphasic process, application of surface functionalized materials such as acidic resins, mesoporous solids and mechanistic insight in limited cases are discussed. The present status of the promising furfural platform in producing second generation biofuels (furanics and hydrocarbon) is reviewed. The performances of each catalytic system are assessed in terms of intrinsic reactivity and selectivity

every cluster j such that link[i,j] is non-zero. The clusters j in q[i] are ordered in the decreasing order of the goodness measure with respect to I, g(i,j). In addition to the local heaps q[i] for each cluster I, the algorithm also maintains an additional global heap q that contains all the clusters. Furthermore, the clusters in q are ordered in the decreasing order of their best goodness measures. Thus, g(j, max(q[j])) is used to order the various clusters j in q, where max(q[j]), the max element
