The oak, to gain its present most northerly position in North Britain after being driven out by the cold probably had travel fully six hundred miles, and this without external aid would take something like a million years. (Reid 1899)

Sports Exerc., Vol. 32, No. 9, Suppl., pp. S471–S480, 2000. Purpose This study tested the validity for energy expenditure (EE) during activities field laboratory settings. We also evaluated accuracy EE values selected listed 1993 Compendium Physical Activities. Methods A total 81 participants (age 19–74 yr)...
This study was designed to establish prediction models that relate hip and wrist accelerometer data energy expenditure (EE) in field laboratory settings. We also sought determine whether the addition of a would significantly improve EE (METs), compared with model used alone.Seventy participants completed one six activities within categories yardwork, housework, family care, occupation, recreation, conditioning, for total 5 12 tested per activity. measured using Cosmed K4b2 portable metabolic...

Sports Exerc., Vol. 32, No. 9, Suppl., pp. S465–S470, 2000. To further develop our understanding the relationship between habitual activity health, research studies require assessment that is objective, accurate, noninvasive. Heart (HR) monitoring represents promising tool measurement because it...
Sampling methods and results of a gene flow study are described that will be interest to plant scientists, evolutionary biologists, ecologists, stakeholders assessing the environmental safety transgenic crops. This documents on landscape level from creeping bentgrass ( Agrostis stolonifera L.), one first wind-pollinated, perennial, highly outcrossing crops being developed for commercial use. Most occurred within 2 km in direction prevailing winds. The maximal distances observed were 21 14...

Methods: A total 10 healthy men 11 women performed min treadmill walking at 54, 80, 107 m·min−1 running 134, 161, 188, 214 m·min−1. The...
Abstract Ten agronomic plant species were exposed to different concentrations of nano–titanium dioxide (nTiO 2 ) or nano–cerium oxide (nCeO (0 μg/mL, 250 500 and 1000 μg/mL) examine potential effects on germination early seedling development. The authors modified a standard test protocol developed for soluble chemicals (OPPTS 850.4200) determine if such an approach might be useful screening engineered nanomaterials (ENMs) whether there differences in response across range commercially...
The accuracy of a computerized metabolic system, using inspiratory and expiratory methods measuring ventilation, was assessed in eight male subjects. Gas exchange measured at rest during five stages on cycle ergometer. Pneumotachometers were placed the inspired expired side to measure (VI) ventilation (VE). devices connected two systems sampling O(2) CO(2) from single mixing chamber. Simultaneously, criterion (Douglas bag, or DB) method VE fractions gas (FE(O(2)) FE(CO(2))) for subsequent...
Concerns about genetically modified (GM) crops include transgene flow to compatible wild species and unintended ecological consequences of potential introgression. However, there has been little empirical documentation establishment distribution transgenic plants in populations. We present herein the first evidence for escape transgenes into plant populations within USA; glyphosate-resistant creeping bentgrass (Agrostis stolonifera L.) expressing CP4 EPSPS were found outside cultivation area...
An individual's occupational activity (OA) may contribute significantly to daily physical (PA) and sedentary behavior (SB). However, there is little consensus about which categories involve high OA or low OA, the majority of are unclassifiable with current methods. The purpose this study was present population estimates accelerometer-derived PA SB variables for adults (n = 1112, 20-60 years) working 40 collected during 2003-2004 National Health Nutrition Examination Survey (NHANES).ActiGraph...

The purpose of this study was to determine whether caffeinated gum influenced performance in a battery soccer-specific tests used the assessment soccer players. In double-blind, randomized, crossover design, 10 male university-standard players (age: 19 ± 1 years, stature: 1.80 0.10 m, body mass: 75.5 4.8 kg) masticated (200 mg; caffeine) or control (0 placebo) on two separate occasions. After standardized warm-up, chewed for 5 min and subsequently expectorated before performed maximal...
The jurisdictional act of 1885 provides That the provisions this shall not extend to such claims as were embraced in convention between United States and French Republic concluded on 30th day April, 1800. question has sometimes been asked, whether these spoliation pressed by our government against France after conclusion treaty September 30, 1800, which always relied upon surrendering rights claimants for a valuable consideration. We have seen that Napoleon ratifiying did so with proviso...
Manual resistance training (MRT), an alternative to traditional training, requires minimal equipment and may be effective when applied in school-based physical education (PE) classes. The purpose of this study was document the changes adolescents (n = 222) using MRT PE settings. Six fitness tests from Fitnessgram assessment tool were selected assess students' cardiovascular muscular fitness, skinfold used body composition. One control 2 experimental groups defined. group students 129)...
Abstract While conducting toxicity tests with nano titanium dioxide, the authors found that test suspensions were being contaminated aluminum and from tip erosion during direct sonication. The contaminating alloy particles had a measurable size distribution zeta potential using dynamic light scattering, which changed measured characteristics of suspensions. Caution should be used when employing sonication for preparing due to interferences these in toxicological assessments. Environ....
Little is known about the daily physical activity (PA) levels of people employed in different occupational categories.Nine ActiGraph accelerometer-derived PA variables are presented and ranked for adults (N = 1465, 20-60 y) working 22 categories assessed by NHANES 2005-2006. A composite score was generated each category summing rankings 3 to have strong associations with health outcomes (total counts [TAC], moderate vigorous minutes per week modified 10-minute bouts [MVPA 10], percentage...
Sixty-two radiocarbon dates of marine shells, basal lake sediments, and peat deposits from the southeastern part Labrador-Ungava Peninsula, Canada, were evaluated for their accuracy precision in estimating local deglaciation time. A procedure consistent evaluation sediments was developed after consideration problems with dating early-postglacial sediments. Of 62 dates, 42 selected to construct regional déglaciation chronology, interpreted context glacial geology area. Late Wisconsin ice...
