United States Hanoi 191208 Wikipedia SyHung2020 United States From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia For other uses of terms redirecting here, see US (disambiguation), USA (disambiguation), and United States (disambiguation) The United States of America (commonly referred to as the United States, the U.S., the USA, or America) is a federal constitutional republic comprising fifty states and a federal district. The country is situated mostly in central North America, where its forty-eight contiguous states and Washington, D.C., the capital district, lie between the Pacific and Atlantic Oceans, bordered by Canada to the north and Mexico to the south. The state of Alaska is in the northwest of the continent, with Canada to its east and Russia to the west across the Bering Strait. The state of Hawaii is an archipelago in the mid-Pacific. The country also possesses several territories, or insular areas, scattered around the Caribbean and Pacific. At 3.79 million square miles (9.83 million km²) and with about 305 million people, the United States is the third or fourth largest country by total area, and third largest by land area and by population. The United States is one of the world's most ethnically diverse and multicultural nations, the product of large-scale immigration from many countries.[7] The U.S. economy is the largest national economy in the world, with an estimated 2008 gross domestic product (GDP) of US$14.3 trillion (23% of the world total based on nominal GDP and almost 21% at purchasing power parity).[4][8] .. The nation was founded by thirteen colonies of Great Britain located along the Atlantic seaboard. On July 4, 1776, they issued the Declaration of Independence, which proclaimed their independence from Great Britain and their formation of a cooperative union. The rebellious states defeated Great Britain in the American Revolutionary War, the first successful colonial war of independence.[9] A federal convention adopted the current United States Constitution on September 17, 1787; its ratification the following year made the states part of a single republic with a strong central government. The Bill of Rights, comprising ten Research Trang1 Hanoi 191208 Wikipedia SyHung2020 constitutional amendments guaranteeing many fundamental civil rights and freedoms, was ratified in 1791. In the 19th century, the United States acquired land from France, Spain, the United Kingdom, Mexico, and Russia, and annexed the Republic of Texas and the Republic of Hawaii. Disputes between the agrarian South and industrial North over states' rights and the expansion of the institution of slavery provoked the American Civil War of the 1860s. The North's victory prevented a permanent split of the country and led to the end of legal slavery in the United States. By the 1870s, the national economy was the world's largest.[10] The Spanish– American War and World War I confirmed the country's status as a military power. In 1945, the United States emerged from World War II as the first country with nuclear weapons, a permanent member of the United Nations Security Council, and a founding member of NATO. The end of the Cold War left the United States as the sole superpower. The country accounts for approximately 50% of global military spending and is a leading economic, political, and cultural force in the world.[11] The United States of America (commonly referred to as the United States, the U.S., the USA, or America) is a federal constitutional republic comprising fifty states and a federal district.

An Attempt to Integrate Previous Localized Estimates of Human Inbreeding for the Whole of Britain John E. Pattison1 1(University of South Australia) Corresponding author: Dr John E Pattison, University of South Australia, Adelaide, South Australia, Australia, 5085. Issue: 88.4 Running header: Human Inbreeding for the Whole of Britain Key words: mating relationships, consanguineous marriages, inbreeding coefficient, logistic function, historic Britain. Abstract There have been a number of previous estimates of human inbreeding for Britons of British descent in Britain; each generally for different social classes, geographical regions, and/or time periods. In this study an attempt was made to collect all relevant published studies and to combine the results of these disparate studies into an integrated whole for all of Britain. This was achieved by combining weighted means of the percentage of consanguineous marriages (f%) reported in these earlier studies: weighted according to the number of records each author examined, the proportion of social classes or geographical regions covered by the records, and the ‘merit’ of their individual research methodologies.

MATRIFOCALITY AND WOMEN'S POWER ON THE MISKITO COAST1 Laura Hobson Herlihy University of Kansas Miskitu women in the village of Kuri (northeastern Honduras) live in matrilocal groups, while men work as deep-water lobster divers. Data reveal that with the long-term presence of the international lobster economy, Kuri has become increasingly matrilocal, matrifocal, and matrilineal. Female-centered social practices in Kuri represent broader patterns in Middle America caused by indigenous men's participation in the global economy. Indigenous women now play heightened roles in preserving cultural, linguistic, and social identities. (Gender, power, kinship, Miskitu women, Honduras) Along the Miskito Coast of northeastern Honduras, indigenous Miskitu men have participated in both subsistence-based and outside economies since the colonial era. For almost 200 years, international companies hired Miskitu men as wage- laborers in "boom and bust" extractive economies, including gold, bananas, and mahogany.

Based primarily on fieldwork in New York and California, I interrogate public health notions of outreach with biotechnology and clinical research concepts of biomedical translation as synonymous practices. Institutional relationships and marketing drivers, I argue, reflect relatedness back onto the Type 2 diabetes patient through causal narratives of risk and inevitability. In effect, kinship—genetic, familial, racial, ethnic, and environmental—becomes the driver of both risk and emergent forms of bioliterary discipline.

It explores the hows and whys of this process by an analysis of the subject matter of epic rather than its form or manner; that is, it attempts to find out what post-classical readers understood when they read epic by examination of major commentaries on Virgil's Aeneid from the early Middle Ages through the Renaissance. After that it proceeds to the same goal by close reading of major English literary works that bear a parodic relation to epic. I understand the epic tradition this book talks about as a heterogeneous body of materials growing from a single root, always changing and transforming them­ selves, but changing in ways and directions indicated by their earliest shaping.

  • COI -- Coefficient of Inbreeding
    COI Coefficient of Inbreeding By Lisa Dubé Forman The science of canine husbandry can sometimes be overwhelming to many fanciers, both rookies and veterans alike. There are many technical considerations Dog Genes Decoded that factor into breeding that can confound the ordinary person. These include, the coefficient of inbreeding (COI), coefficient of relationship (COR), ancestor loss coefficient (AVK), pedigree collapse, inbreeding depression, formula approach, genetic diversity, genetic drift, and genetic loads. By and large, a fancier plans a litter with much anticipation and excitement, for perhaps, waiting in the wings, is the next sublime specimen — one slated for greatness in the wolfhound dog world. A method of approach that on the outset may sound glib, but it really is just an honest assessment as one of the compelling reasons why breeders create is to perfect, enhance and build on a breed. The better part do not wish to worsen or diminish the breed. The average breeder must understand these aforementioned technical considerations, yet, regrettably, they do not. Modern day breeding programs are based on regular appearances of significant names in pedigrees which itself is based on an ideological nineteenth-century attitude that still has a firm foothold in mainstream practices of canine husbandry. Breeders should not proceed with rudimentary information that originated from social attitudes instead of science. Even more, there is the impracticable method of basing decisions on only five generation horizontal pedigrees as sufficient evidence of the coefficient of inbreeding (COI). !1 COI Coefficient of Inbreeding By Lisa Dubé Forman Let us get right to it and begin with a few quick, simple definitions.

    AMERICAN MUSEUM NOVITATES Published by Number 895 THE AMERICAN MUSEUM OF NATURAL HISTORY Dec. 31 1936 New York City THE NEARCTIC ATYPIDAE By W. J. GERTSCH The curious spiders now comprising the Atypidae were set apart many years ago by various authors as representing a group which, though obviously closely related to the other mygalomorph species, was worthy of separation from them in some way, either as a genus, a sub- family, or a family. The genus Atypus dates from 1804, when Latreille used the name for the first time in a generic sense. Aranea subterranea Roemer, now placed as a synonym of Atypus piceus (Sulzer), was desig- nated as the genotype by this same author in 1810. Ausserer in his 'Beitrage zur Kenntniss der Arachniden-Familie der Territelariae' recognized a subfamily Atypinae, which name had been used pro- visionally by Thorell in 1869-1870, and included three generic cate- gories, Calommata Lucas, its synonym Pelecodon Doleschal, and Atypus Latreille. This author placed two of the American species in Atypus but erected the new genus Madognatha for Sphodros abbotii Walckenaer, assigning it to the subfamily Theraphosinae. The family name, Atypidae, was proposed by P. Bertkau in 1878 and was based on the characters presented in the German species of Atypus. A little later Thorell (1889-1890) divided his Territelariae into five families and for some reason substituted the name Calommatoidae for the Atypidae of Bertkau. In the 'Historie Naturelle des Araginees' Simon restored the name Atypidae and considerably enlarged the limits of the family by including twenty-four species representing six genera, and placed them in three subfamilies, the Brachybothrinae, Hexurinae, and Atypinae.
