    Library of Congress Interview with J.D. Bindenagel The Association for Diplomatic Studies and Training Foreign Affairs Oral History Project AMBASSADOR J.D. BINDENAGEL Interviewed by: Charles Stuart Kennedy Initial interview date: February 3, 1998 Copyright 2002 ADST Q: Today is February 3, 1998. The interview is with J.D. Bindenagel. This is being done on behalf of The Association for Diplomatic Studies. I am Charles Stuart Kennedy. J.D. and I are old friends. We are going to include your biographic sketch that you included at the beginning, which is really quite full and it will be very useful. I have a couple of questions to begin. While you were in high school, what was your interest in foreign affairs per se? I know you were talking politics with Mr. Frank Humphrey, Senator Hubert Humphrey's brother, at the Humphrey Drugstore in Huron, South Dakota, and all that, but how about foreign affairs? BINDENAGEL: I grew up in Huron, South Dakota and foreign affairs in South Dakota really focused on our home town politician Senator and Vice President Hubert H. Humphrey. Frank, Hubert Humphrey's brother, was our connection to Washington, DC, and the center of American politics. We followed Hubert's every move as Senator and Vice President; he of course was very active in foreign policy, and the issues that concerned South Dakota's farmers were important to us. Most of farmers' interests were in their wheat sales, and when we discussed what was happening with wheat you always had to talk about the Russians, who were buying South Dakota wheat.

    Delta-Notch Signaling: the Long and the Short of a Neuron’S Influence on Progenitor Fates

    Journal of Developmental Biology Review Delta-Notch Signaling: The Long and the Short of a Neuron’s Influence on Progenitor Fates Rachel Moore 1,* and Paula Alexandre 2,* 1 Centre for Developmental Neurobiology, King’s College London, London SE1 1UL, UK 2 Developmental Biology and Cancer, University College London Great Ormond Street Institute of Child Health, London WC1N 1EH, UK * Correspondence: [email protected] (R.M.); [email protected] (P.A.) Received: 18 February 2020; Accepted: 24 March 2020; Published: 26 March 2020 Abstract: Maintenance of the neural progenitor pool during embryonic development is essential to promote growth of the central nervous system (CNS). The CNS is initially formed by tightly compacted proliferative neuroepithelial cells that later acquire radial glial characteristics and continue to divide at the ventricular (apical) and pial (basal) surface of the neuroepithelium to generate neurons. While neural progenitors such as neuroepithelial cells and apical radial glia form strong connections with their neighbours at the apical and basal surfaces of the neuroepithelium, neurons usually form the mantle layer at the basal surface. This review will discuss the existing evidence that supports a role for neurons, from early stages of differentiation, in promoting progenitor cell fates in the vertebrates CNS, maintaining tissue homeostasis and regulating spatiotemporal patterning of neuronal differentiation through Delta-Notch signalling. Keywords: neuron; neurogenesis; neuronal apical detachment; asymmetric division; notch; delta; long and short range lateral inhibition 1. Introduction During the development of the central nervous system (CNS), neurons derive from neural progenitors and the Delta-Notch signaling pathway plays a major role in these cell fate decisions [1–4].

    A Companion To"Whos Who'

    WHO WAS WHO A COMPANION TO"WHO S WHO' CONTAINING THE BIOGRAPHIES OF THOSE WHO DIED DURING THE PERIOD 1897-1916. PUBLISHED BY A & C BLACK LIMITED 4 5 &-6-SOHO SQUARE LONDON-W 192O vi PREFACE THE annual volumes of Who's Who are confined to those still living. But it has long been felt that it is not the biographies of the living only that are required. To learn details of the career of a distinguished man recently dead, it has so far been necessary to look him up in a back volume of Who's Who, This entailed on the busy journalist, or man of affairs, the necessity for keeping the whole of the past volumes on his shelves. To obviate this the biographies of all those who died between 1897' and 1916 (the first twenty years of the new issue of Who's Who) have now been re-edited and collected into the present volume, which forms a companion book to the older one, and will probably prove as indispensable. It had been the intention of the Publishers to bring this un- volume out in 1916, but difficulties arising out of the war fortunately rendered that impossible. 24 Sept. 1919. ABBREVIATIONS Al .
