This project has been part of an ongoing interest in metabolites with a cyclic tricarbonyl motif 1, usually enolised. Coleophomones A C have a unique architecture with the cyclic tricarbonyl motif embedded in an 11-membered ring: A & B exist in aldol equilibrium, B & C are geometric isomers, and D lacks the macrocycle.1,2 Antifungal & antibiotic activity, and inhibition of human heart chymase & bacterial cell-wall transglycosylase, has generated synthetic interest. In an approach distinct from reported studies,3 we propose 4-carbonyl-substituted isoxazoles, from dipolar cycloaddition of nitrile oxides, as building blocks for the tricarbonyl framework. During this investigation precursors to the macrocycles of coleophomones A, B, C and analogues were developed. En route to these precursors we have uncovered and probed a facile and highly unusual benzisoxazole to oxazole rearrangement. *Schemes and figures relating to the abstract can be found within the document proper.

Lily Lake, a subalpine lake in the Wasatch National Forest Tl5, R9E, S31, of the Uinta Mountain Region, Utah, is located about one-half mile west of Trial Lake at an elevation of 10,000 feet. This Lake, which is one of the acidic, cold, lentic bogs characteristic of this area, has been selected for a taxonomic and seasonal distribution study of acquatic phycomycetes. This study is a beginning to our knowledge of the role of the fungi in the hydrobiology of Lily Lake and will supply the first information on record of the water molds of this area. The study identifies the fungi found on fourteen types of substrata and correlates it with the environmental data of the lake.

There have been a number of studies that examine how public relations professionals respond during a crisis including use of traditional legal response and traditional public relations response strategies. The degree of use of either can be influenced by the relationship between legal and public relations professionals. Thus, a pre-crisis relationship between the two groups is important for successful crisis communications. The purpose of this study was to examine media coverage of the Missouri drug dilution case to determine how many of Eli Lilly and Company's public relations messages were carried by the three major media outlets covering the crisis, if there was a difference among the outlets, and whether there was a significant difference in response strategy messages were reported.A content analysis of articles during the crisis period from the Indianapolis Star, the Kansas City Star, and The Associated Press were obtained through a Factiva search and were used to gather responses made by spokespersons. The search yielded 64 usable articles and 254 sentences from company spokespersons.Coders were trained to identify the response strategies defined as traditional public relations strategy, traditional legal strategy, mixed strategy and diversionary strategy. A chi-square test was used to test the hypotheses.The first hypothesis which stated "the number of sentences attributed to Lilly spokespersons in The Indianapolis Star, The Kansas City Star, and the Associated Press in the Missouri drug dilution case will differ significantly" was supported. The second hypothesis which stated "there will be a significant difference in response strategy sentences as defined by Fitzpatrick and Rubin and attributed to Lilly spokespersons in The Indianapolis Star, The Kansas City Star, and the Associated Press during different time periods of the case" was also supported. / Department of Journalism

"Cualquiera que esté familiarizado con la arquitectura de Mies van der Rohe asociará su obra alemana al mundo de las exposiciones..." Así empieza uno de los pocos ensayos que tratan la obra expositiva de Mies. Aunque las exposiciones fueron una parte extremadamente importante en su etapa europea, pocos son los textos que centran su discurso en este tema en particular y lo estudian en su globalidad. Durante su etapa europea Mies realizó una larga lista de arquitecturas expositivas que comenzaron con la Colonia de viviendas Weissenhof y continuaron con otros montajes tan significativos como el Café Samt und Seide, el Pabellón de Barcelona, o la 'Vivienda para un matrimonio sin hijos' de la Exposición Alemana de la Edificación. Sin embargo, aunque las exposiciones anteriormente citadas han sido largamente estudiadas por multitud de críticos e historiadores existe un gran vacío documental en torno a otras muchas. Aunque en ocasiones se ha calificado el período berlinés de Mies van der Rohe, como una época eminentemente teórica, lo cierto es que durante ese período diseñó y construyó, junto a Lilly Reich, más de ochenta espacios expositivos para la industria y el gobierno alemán. Todos estos montajes fueron la base conceptual de su arquitectura posterior, fueron las arquitecturas cuya reflexión y experimentación le sirvieron de laboratorio y escuela. Por todo ello, las motivaciones que han llevado a esta investigación pretenden aportar luz sobre la influencia que, tanto Lilly Reich como sus arquitecturas temporales, supusieron en la formación y posterior materialización de la obra construida de uno de los grandes arquitectos del siglo XX. En primer lugar se investiga más a fondo el papel que Lilly Reich desempeñó en la vida profesional de Mies van der Rohe. No se sabe él porqué del silencio de Mies respecto a su relación con Lilly Reich. Nunca mencionó nada sobre su colaboración profesional, ni en privado, ni en público,... ni antes, ni después de que ella fallecier / Lizondo Sevilla, L. (2012). ¿Arquitectura o exposición?

A taxonomic and ecological survey of the algae of Lilly Lake in the Uinta Mountains, Utah, was carried on from June 1967 to November 1967. The lake is a typical acid bog lake with an average pH range of 4.5 to 6.9. Extremes of pH in the alkaline range were present due to additional factors. Algae identified included 96 genera and 208 species. These were found in many different types of microenvironmental niches. The main factors which limited the algae to definite areas of the lake were pH, water temperature, light available, and type of substrate. The predominant algal genera uresent in all parts of the lake at all times of the growing season were Scenedesmus, Pediastrum, Microcystis, Aphanocapsa, Sphaerocystis, Spirogyra, desmids, and diatoms. Algae that thrived only under cold water, acid conditions were Eunotia., Culinclrocystis, Euglena, and Chlamydomonas. Genera that grew abundantly when the pH increased to the alkaline range were Dictyosphaerium, Lepocinclis, Phacus, Synura, Pandorina, and Trachelomonas. The most dominant genus in the center stations of the lake was Chara. Fishing and resultant pollution of the marginal waters caused large, bright green blooms of Spirogyra. Algae that appeared in greatly disturbed areas were Closterium and Oscillatoria. Planktonic algae or drifters were not present floating in the water but did occur in the marginal areas where seepage provided necessary nutrients.

Outer Edges of the Middle Kingdom is a narrative by the author about his two years as a teacher in the People's Republic of China. Organized chronologically, the account begins in August, 1985, and ends in June, 1987. The narrator describes meeting students at Tianjin University, Tianjin, China, designing English classes for English majors, daily episodes in the classroom, and interaction with Chinese colleagues. The narrative alternates between life on a university campus and extensive trips the narrator made to various cities in China, including Beijing, Shanghai, Chengdu, Kunming, Guilin, Harbin, Hohot, and Guangzhou. Also recounted are the narrator's reactions to the student demonstrations of December, 1986, and the resulting anti-bourgeois liberation campaign of January-April, 1987.
