Box 1346 Ann Arbor, Ml 48106- 1346 ABSTRACT INTERACTION OF BLOOD COMPONENTS WITH POLYMERS AND BIOMIMETIC SURFACES By BRENDA HALL The work presented in this thesis describes the use of in vitro tests to monitor the blood compatibility of biomimetic surfaces. Phospholipids which predominate on the outer membrane surface of normal blood cells contain the phosphorylcholine polar head group. These surfaces are naturally non-thrombogenic. Phospholipids and polymers which contain the phosphorylcholine polar head group have been coated onto various substrates and analysed in terms of whole blood clot formation (as measured by the technique of Material Thrombelastography), protein adsorption, platelet and cellular interactions. Using Material Thrombelastography phospholipids which contain the phosphorylcholine group were found to limit the activation of clotting factors and reduce the rate and strength of clot formation in comparison to results obtained by negatively charged phospholipids. Furthermore, a polymerisable diacetylenic phospholipid and some polyesters which contain the phosphorylcholine group showed improved blood compatibility as compared to conventional materials. Phosphorylcholine lipids were also found to limit serum protein adsorption onto liposomes prepared from these lipids in contrast to negatively charged phospholipids. In particular dipalmitoylphosphatidylcholine was found to limit the adsorption of proteins (fibrinogen, & -globulin and serum) onto polyethylene sheets coated with this lipid, and limit platelet and cellular surface interactions. Further studies have also been made to analyse polymer substrates which have been modified in order to covalently link phosphorylcholine groups to the surface. These results have been discussed in relation to the development of novel biomaterials which mimic natural biological membranes. 2 ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS I wish to express my sincere thanks to Professor Dennis Chapman F.R.S. for his supervision and guidance during this project.

It is located in a relatively undisturbed area of the boreal forest about 4 km off of Highway 914 and approximately 35 km north-northeast of the Key Lake uranium operation. Wheeler is a joint venture project owned by Denison Mines Corp. (Denison) and JCU (Canada) Exploration Company Ltd. (JCU). Denison owns 90% of Wheeler and is the operator, while JCU owns 10%. Denison is a uranium exploration and development company with interests focused in the Athabasca Basin region of northern Saskatchewan, Canada with a head office in Toronto, Ontario and technical office in Saskatoon, Saskatchewan. Historically Denison has had over 50 years of uranium mining experience in Saskatchewan, Elliot Lake, Ontario, and in the United States. Today, the company is part owner (22.5%) of the McClean Lake Joint Venture which includes the operating McClean Lake uranium mill in northern Saskatchewan. To advance the Project, Denison is applying an innovative approach to uranium mining in Canada called in situ recovery (ISR). The use of ISR mining at Wheeler means that there will be no need for a large open pit mining operation or multiple shafts to access underground mine workings; no workers will be underground as the ISR process is conducted from surface facilities.

Gump COMPOSER, ARTIST, AND PRESIDENT OF GUMP'S, SAN FRANCISCO An Interview Conducted by Suzanne B. Riess in 1987 Copyright @ 1989 by The Regents of the University of California Since 1954 the Regional Oral History Office has been interviewing leading participants in or well-placed witnesses to major events in the development of Northern California, the West,and the Nation. Oral history is a modern research technique involving an interviewee and an informed interviewer in spontaneous conversation. The taped record is transcribed, lightly edited for continuity and clarity, and reviewed by the interviewee. The resulting manuscript is typed in final form, indexed, bound with photographs and illustrative materials, and placed in The Bancroft Library at the University of California, Berkeley, and other research collections for scholarly use. Because it is primary material, oral history is not intended to present the final, verified, or complete narrative of events. It is a spoken account, offered by the interviewee in response to questioning, and as such it is reflective, partisan, deeply involved, and irreplaceable. All uses of this manuscript are covered by a legal agreement between the University of California and Richard B. Gump dated 7 March 1988. The manuscript is thereby made available for research purposes.

Courtesy of The New Yorker. To the memory of my father who showed me the pleasures of reading. Abstract Skagert, Ulrica, 2008. Possibility-Space and Its Imaginative Variations in Alice Munro’s Short Stories. Pp.192. Stockholm: ISBN: 978-91-7155-770-4 With its perennial interest in the seemingly ordinary lives of small-town people, Alice Munro’s fiction displays a deceptively simple surface reality that on closer scrutiny reveals intricate levels of unexpected complexity about the fundamentals of human experience: love, choice, mortality, faith and the force of language. This study takes as its main purpose the explora- tion of Munro’s stories in terms of the intricacy of emotions in the face of commonplace events of life and their emerging possibilities. I argue that the ontological levels of fiction and reality remain in the realm of the real; these levels exist and merge as the possibilities of each other. Munro’s realism is explored in terms of its connection to possibilities that arise out of a particu- lar type of fatality. The phenomenon of possibility permeates Munro’s stories. An inves- tigation of this phenomenon shows a curious paradox between possibility and necessity. In order to discuss the complexity of this paradox I introduce the temporal/spatial concept of possibility-space and notions of the fatal.

Climate change has had a major historical influence on global biodiversity and will continue to impact the structure and function of natural ecosystems, including the provision of natural services such as fisheries. Freshwater fishery professionals (e.g. fishery managers, fish biologists, fishery scientists and fishers) need to be informed regarding the likely impacts of climate change. Written for such an audience, this chapter reviews the drivers of climatic change and the means by which its impacts are predicted.

I'd been in and around Munich during my very first visit to Europe back about1970, and even had a chance to play the old organ (since replaced) in Benediktbeuron. This was a revelation to a young student who had never before laid hands on an old keyboard, nor thought about how one must phrase and the tempos one must adopt when playing into a voluminous room with a lengthy acoustic decay.
