RNA Modification (Methods in Enzymology: Vol 425)
Academic Press | ISBN 0123741556 | Edition - 2007-08-06 | PDF | 480 pages | 4.62 MB | rapidshare

The presence of modified nucleotides in cellular RNAs has been known for decades and over 100 distinct RNA modifications have been characterized to date. While the exact role of many of these modifications is still unclear, many are highly conserved across evolution and most contribute to the overall fitness of the organism. In recent years, new methods and bioinformatics approaches have been developed for the dissection of modification pathways and functions. These methods intersect a number of related fields, ranging from RNA processing to comparative genomics and systems biology. In addition, many of the techniques described in this volume have broad applicability, particularly in regards to the isolation, characterization, and reconstitution of ribonucleoprotein complexes, expanding the experimental repertoire available to all RNA researchers.

In a typical organization, there’s always plenty that to do such as: pay vendors, invoice customers, answer customer inquiries, and fix bugs in hardware or software. You need to know who wants what and keep track of what is left to do.

This is where a ticketing system comes in. A ticketing system allows you to check the status of various tasks: when they were requested, who requested them and why, when they were completed, and more. RT is a high-level, open source ticketing system efficiently enabling a group of people to manage tasks, issues, and requests submitted by a community of users.

RT Essentials, co-written by one of the RT’s original core developers, Jesse Vincent, starts off with a quick background lesson about ticketing systems and then shows you how to install and configure RT. This comprehensive guide explains how to perform day-to-day tasks to turn your RT server into a highly useful tracking tool. One way it does this is by examining how a company could use RT to manage its internal processes. Advanced chapters focus on developing add-on tools and utilities using Perl and Mason. There’s also chapter filled with suggested uses for RT inside your organization.

No matter what kind of data your organization tracks–from sales inquiries to security incidents or anything in between–RT Essentials helps you use RT to provide order when you need it most.

The Perdue Chicken Cookbook
Publisher: Book Sales (November 2000) | Language: English | ISBN-10: 0785812008 | 266 pages | PDF | 786 KB

The Perdue name will lend credibility to this collection of chicken recipes. Written by Mrs. Frank Perdue, it neatly delivers what it promises: a variety of recipes complemented by nuggets of useful advice about nutritiously cooking chicken and preparing and purchasing poultry and other ingredients. It’s the kind of information the author claims she should have had on hand when she first faced the intimidating task of cooking for her husband, a man she calls “one of the world’s greatest experts� on the bird. Accordingly, recipes are designed and organized for home cooks, including some for the microwave oven, for the grill (boneless breasts Tandoori), for dieters (pasta primavera with chicken) and for the finicky (crispy peanut butter chicken). Also featured are Frank Perdue’s favorites–Hawaiian “layered� chicken and chicken a la Montmorency. To Mrs. Perdue’s credit, she presumes nothing about her readers’ capabilities, and explains as she goes. Only one dish appears totally unappealing: a crown roast constructed of chicken drumsticks.

The Greek State
W. W. Norton & Company | ISBN 0416701108 | 1960 Edition | PDF | 457 pages | 2 MB

The Greek word, polis, “city� has become an integral part of our culture and appears in words such as polity and political. Scholars never tire of tracing the development of the first polities among the Greeks. From there one usually goes on to talk about the ideal, heavenly, or imaginary state. Ehrenberg’s work, however, is another masterpiece of scholarship, detailing exactly how the individual states arose, began to confederate and then to unite, and what, because of it, our cultural expectations came to be regarding some such institution called “a polity.�

Daniel Charles Mattis, “Statistical Mechanics Made Easy: A Guide for Students and Researchers�
World Scientific | April 2003 | ISBN: 981238166X | PDF | 2 Mb | 266 pages

This book is an elaboration of the author’s lecture notes in a graduate course in statistical physics and thermodynamics, augmented by some material suitable for self-teaching as well as for undergraduate study. The first 4 or 5 chapters are suitable for an undergraduate course for engineers and physicists in Thermodynamics and Statistical Physics and include detailed study of the various ensembles and their connections to applied thermodynamics. The Debye law of specific heats and reasons for deviations from the Debye formulas are covered, as are the Einstein theories of Brownian motion, black-body radiation and specific heat of solids. Van der Waals gases and the reason for the apparent failure of his Law of Corresponding States are discussed.

The last 5 chapters treat topics of recent interest to researchers, including: the Ising and Potts models, spin waves in ferromagnetic and anti-ferromagnetic media, sound propagation in non-ideal gases and the decay of sound waves, introduction to the understanding of glasses and spin glasses, superfluidity and superconductivity.

The selection of material is wide-ranging and the mathematics for handling it completely self-contained, ranging from counting (probability theory) to quantum field theory as used in the study of fermions, bosons and as an adjunct in the solutions of the equations of classical diffusion-reaction theory. In addition to the standard material found in most recent books on statistical physics the constellation of topics covered in this text includes numerous original items:

Generalization of “negative temperature� to interacting spins
Derivation of Gibbs’ factor from first principles
Exact free energy of interacting particles in 1D (e.g., classical and quantum Tonk’s gas)
Introduction to virial expansions, Equations of State, Correlation Functions and “critical exponents�
Superfluidity in ideal and non-ideal fluids (both Bogolubov and Feynman theories)
Superconductivity: thermodynamical approach and the BCS theory
Derivation of “Central Limit Theorem� and its applications
Boltzmann’s “H-Theorem� and the nonlinear Boltzmann equation
Exact solution of nonlinear Boltzmann Equation for electrons in time-dependent electric field and the derivation of Joule heating, transport parameters in crossed electric and magnetic fields, etc.
Frequency spectrum and decay of sound waves in gases
Exact evaluation of free energy and thermodynamic properties of the two-dimensional Ising model in regular and fully frustrated (spin-glass like) lattices
The “zipper� model of crystal fracture or polymer coagulation - calculation of Tc
Potts model in 2D: duality and Tc
“Doi’s theory� of diffusion-limited chemical reactions with some exact results - including the evaluation of statistical fluctuations in radioactive decay
Thermodynamic Green Functions and their applications to fermions and bosons with an example drawn from random matrix theory

Roger Trigg, Religion in Public Life: Must Faith Be Privatized?
Oxford University Press | ISBN 0199279802 | 2007 | PDF | 0.7 MB | 275 pages

How far can religion play a part in the public sphere, or should it be only a private matter? Roger Trigg examines this question in the context of today’s pluralist societies, where many different beliefs clamour for attention. Should we celebrate diversity, or are matters of truth at stake? In particular, can we maintain our love of freedom, while cutting it off from religious roots? In societies in which there are many conflicting beliefs, the place of religion is a growing political issue. Should all religions be equally welcomed in the public square?

Favouring one religion over others may appear to be a failure to treat all citizens equally, yet for citizens in many countries their Christian heritage is woven into their way of life. Whether it is the issue of same-sex marriages, the right of French schoolgirls to wear Islamic headscarves, or just the public display of Christmas trees, all societies have to work out a consistent approach to the public influence of religion.

Revolutionaries of the Cosmos: The Astro-Physicists
Oxford University Press, USA| 332 pages | 2005-12-23 | ISBN:0198570996 | PDF | 6.1MB

Galileo, Newton, Herschel, Huggins, Hale, Eddington, Shapley and Hubble: these astronomers applied ideas drawn from physics to astronomy and made dramatic changes to the world-pictures that they inherited. They showed that celestial objects are composed of the same materials as the earth and that they behave in the same way. They displaced successively the earth, the sun and finally the milky way galaxy from being the centre of the universe. This book contains their biographies and outlines their greatest discoveries. Hard work, physical insight, desire for fame and a strong belief in the rightness of their own ideas were characteristics of all eight. Their often quirky personalities led them into bitter controversies with their contemporaries. But their successes arose from the outstanding clarity of their thoughts, their practical ability and their strong sense of direction in science.

Christopher Tyerman, The Crusades: A Very Short Introduction
Oxford University Press | ISBN 0192806556 | 2005 | PDF | 3.8 MB | 185 pages

Crusading fervour gripped Europe for over 200 years, creating one of the most extraordinary, vivid episodes in world history. Whether the Crusades are regarded as the most romantic of Christian expeditions, or the last of the barbarian invasions, they have fascinated generations ever since, and their legacy of ideas and imagery has resonated through the centuries, inspiring Hollywood movies and great works of literature.

Even today, to invoke the Crusades is to stir deep cultural myths, assumptions and prejudices. Yet despite their powerful hold on our imaginations, our knowledge of them remains obscured an distorted by time. Were the Crusaders motivated by spiritual rewards, or by greed? Were the Crusades an experiment in European colonialism, or a manifestation of religious love? How were they organized and founded? With customary flair and originality, Christopher Tyerman picks his way through the many debates to present a clear and lively discussion of the Crusades; bringing together issues of colonialism, cultural exchange, economic exploitation, and the relationship between past and present.

Exploring the Quantum: Atoms, Cavities, and Photons (Oxford Graduate Texts)
Oxford University Press, USA | 616 pages | 2006-09-18 | ISBN: 0198509146 | PDF | 10.31MB

The counter-intuitive aspects of quantum physics have been for long illustrated by thought experiments, from Einstein’s photon box to Schrodinger’s cat. These experiments have now become real, with single particles - electrons, atoms or photons - directly unveiling the weird features of the quantum. State superpositions, entanglement and complementarity define a novel quantum logic which can be harnessed for information processing, raising great hopes for applications. This book describes a class of such thought experiments made real. Juggling with atoms and photons confined in cavities, ions or cold atoms in traps, is here an incentive to shed a new light on the basic concepts of quantum physics. Measurement processes and decoherence at the quantum-classical boundary are highlighted. This volume, which combines theory and experiments, will be of interest to students in quantum physics, teachers seeking illustrations for their lectures and new problem sets, researchers in quantum optics and quantum information.
