    Former Fellows of The Royal Society of Edinburgh 1783 – 2002 Biographical Index Part Two ISBN 0 902198 84 X Published July 2006 © The Royal Society of Edinburgh 22-26 George Street, Edinburgh, EH2 2PQ BIOGRAPHICAL INDEX OF FORMER FELLOWS OF THE ROYAL SOCIETY OF EDINBURGH 1783 – 2002 PART II K-Z C D Waterston and A Macmillan Shearer This is a print-out of the biographical index of over 4000 former Fellows of the Royal Society of Edinburgh as held on the Society’s computer system in October 2005. It lists former Fellows from the foundation of the Society in 1783 to October 2002. Most are deceased Fellows up to and including the list given in the RSE Directory 2003 (Session 2002-3) but some former Fellows who left the Society by resignation or were removed from the roll are still living. HISTORY OF THE PROJECT Information on the Fellowship has been kept by the Society in many ways – unpublished sources include Council and Committee Minutes, Card Indices, and correspondence; published sources such as Transactions, Proceedings, Year Books, Billets, Candidates Lists, etc. All have been examined by the compilers, who have found the Minutes, particularly Committee Minutes, to be of variable quality, and it is to be regretted that the Society’s holdings of published billets and candidates lists are incomplete. The late Professor Neil Campbell prepared from these sources a loose-leaf list of some 1500 Ordinary Fellows elected during the Society’s first hundred years. He listed name and forenames, title where applicable and national honours, profession or discipline, position held, some information on membership of the other societies, dates of birth, election to the Society and death or resignation from the Society and reference to a printed biography.

  • Enregisterment in Historical Contexts
    0 Enregisterment in Historical Contexts: A Framework Paul Stephen Cooper A thesis submitted to the University of Sheffield for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in the School of English Literature, Language and Linguistics February 2013 1 ABSTRACT In this thesis I discuss how the phenomena of indexicality and enregisterment (Silverstein 2003; Agha 2003) can be observed and studied in historical contexts via the use of historical textual data. I present a framework for the study of historical enregisterment which compares data from corpora of both nineteenth-century and modern Yorkshire dialect material, and the results of an online survey of current speakers so as to ascertain the validity of the corpus data and to use ‘the present to explain the past’ (Labov 1977:226). This framework allows for the identification of enregistered repertoires of Yorkshire dialect in both the twenty-first and nineteenth centuries. This is achieved by combining elicited metapragmatic judgements and examples of dialect features from the online survey with quantitative frequency analysis of linguistic features from Yorkshire dialect literature and literary dialect (Shorrocks 1996) and qualitative metapragmatic discourse (Johnstone et al 2006) from sources such as dialect dictionaries, dialect grammars, travel writing, and glossaries. I suggest that processes of enregisterment may operate along a continuum and that linguistic features may become ‘deregistered’ as representative of a particular variety; I also suggest that features may become ‘deregistered’ to the point of becoming ‘fossil forms’, which is more closely related to Labov’s (1972) definition of the ultimate fate of a linguistic stereotype. I address the following research questions: 1.

  • Popular Political Oratory and Itinerant Lecturing in Yorkshire and the North East in the Age of Chartism, 1837-60 Janette Lisa M
    Popular political oratory and itinerant lecturing in Yorkshire and the North East in the age of Chartism, 1837-60 Janette Lisa Martin This thesis is submitted for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy The University of York Department of History January 2010 ABSTRACT Itinerant lecturers declaiming upon free trade, Chartism, temperance, or anti- slavery could be heard in market places and halls across the country during the years 1837- 60. The power of the spoken word was such that all major pressure groups employed lecturers and sent them on extensive tours. Print historians tend to overplay the importance of newspapers and tracts in disseminating political ideas and forming public opinion. This thesis demonstrates the importance of older, traditional forms of communication. Inert printed pages were no match for charismatic oratory. Combining personal magnetism, drama and immediacy, the itinerant lecturer was the most effective medium through which to reach those with limited access to books, newspapers or national political culture. Orators crucially united their dispersed audiences in national struggles for reform, fomenting discussion and coalescing political opinion, while railways, the telegraph and expanding press reportage allowed speakers and their arguments to circulate rapidly. Understanding of political oratory and public meetings has been skewed by over- emphasis upon the hustings and high-profile politicians. This has generated two misconceptions: that political meetings were generally rowdy and that a golden age of political oratory was secured only through Gladstone’s legendary stumping tours. However, this thesis argues that, far from being disorderly, public meetings were carefully regulated and controlled offering disenfranchised males a genuine democratic space for political discussion.

  • Evaluation on the Effects of Hydrocolloids on Sensory, Texture and Color Properties of Mulberry Pastille
    242 October, 2019 AgricEngInt: CIGR Journal Open access at http://www.cigrjournal.org Vol. 21, No. 3 Evaluation on the effects of hydrocolloids on sensory, texture and color properties of mulberry pastille Nosrat Azimi1, Shadi Basiri2*, Ali Mortazavi3 (1. MSc of Food Science and Technology, Sabzevar Branch, Islamic Azad University; 2. Assistant professor, Agricultural Engineering Research Department , Khorasan Razavi Agricultural and Natural Resources Research Center, AREEO, Mashhad, Iran; 3. Professor, Food Science and Technology Department, Faculty of Agriculture, Ferdowsi University of Mashhad, Iran) Abstract: White mulberry is a fruit with high nutritional quality. The shelf life of Mulberry is short due to high moisture content. In this research, a new product from white Mulberry called pastille was formulated. Two hydrocolloid ingredients: guar (0%, 0.5% and 1%) and gelatin (0%, 1% and 2%) were used for pastille formulations. Parameters such as color parameters (L* a* b*), sensory evaluations and texture profile analysis (TPA) of samples were investigated. The results of texture evaluation showed that springiness, chewiness, adhesiveness and hardness increased by increasing gelatin, while cohesiveness decreased. Hardness and adhesiveness decreased by addition of the guar. Hardness and adhesiveness decreased with adding guar. Sensory evaluation showed that increasing of the hydrocolloids led to the decrease of acceptability scores. The parameters of a* and b* of pastille samples increased with increasing hydrocolloids concentration, however L* values decreased when the amount of hydrocolloids increased. Mulberry pastille including 1% guar and 1% gelatin having the lowest amount of hardness, adhesiveness, chewiness and suitable color characteristics, was determined as the best formulation among the other investigated samples.

  • Novel Dry Powder Inhaler Formulation Containing Antibiotic Using Combined Technology to Improve Aerodynamic Properties
    Novel dry powder inhaler formulation containing antibiotic using combined technology to improve aerodynamic properties Rita Ambrus 1* , Edit Benke 1, Árpád Farkas 2, Imre Balásházy 2, Piroska Szabó-Révész 1 1Faculty of Pharmacy, Institute of Pharmaceutical Technology and Regulatory Affairs, University of Szeged, Szeged, Hungary 2Centre for Energy Research, Hungarian Academy of Sciences, Budapest, Hungary *Corresponding author: [email protected] Abstract Dry Powder Inhaler (DPI) could offer a propellant-free, easy-to-use powder form ensuring better stability than liquid dosage forms. Therefore the development of traditional carrier-based and carrier-free new generation systems is a determinative factor in the field of DPI formulation. The purpose of our research work was to combine these two systems, utilizing their beneficial properties to produce a novel pulmonary drug delivery system containing ciprofloxacin hydrochloride (CIP). Co-spray drying, surface smoothing and the preparation of an interactive physical mixture were applied as the technological procedures of sample preparation. The carrier-based and carrier-free formulations, as well as the developed novel product were compared to each other. Structural investigations were made by X-ray powder diffraction and micrometric properties (habit, bulk density) were determined. Particle interactions were also evaluated to investigate surface free energy, cohesive-adhesive forces, and spreading coefficient. In vitro aerodynamic properties (mass median aerodynamic diameter, fine particle fraction (FPF) and emitted dose of DPIs were measured using Andersen Cascade Impactor. A novel in silico Stochastic Lung Model was also used to quantify the amount of particles deposited at the target area. The novel-formulated composition presented amorphous spherical particles with an average size of about 2 µm.

ABSTRACT - Purpose: Sore throat is a frequent reason for seeking medical care but few prescription options are available. Lozenges are effective in delivering active ingredients to the throat. This study was conducted to determine the analgesic efficacy of two lozenges one containing amylmetacresol (AMC)/2,4- dichlorobenzyl alcohol (DCBA) and lidocaine and one containing hexylresorcinol versus placebo in patients with acute sore throat due to upper respiratory tract infection (URTI). Methods: This was a multicentre, randomised, double-blind, parallel group, placebo-controlled study. In total, 190 patients were randomised 1:1:1 to a single dose of AMC/DCBA + lidocaine, hexylresorcinol or placebo lozenge. Subjective ratings of throat soreness, difficulty swallowing, swollen throat, numbing, and sore throat relief were obtained up to 2 hours post dose. Patient and investigator global ratings and a consumer questionnaire
