State Medical Boards (SMBs) can take severe disciplinary actions (e.g., license revocation or suspension) against physicians who commit egregious wrongdoing in order to protect the public. However, there is noteworthy variability in the extent to which SMBs impose severe disciplinary action. In this manuscript, we present and synthesize a subset of 11 recommendations based on findings from our team’s larger consensus-building project that identified a list of 56 policies and legal provisions SMBs can use to better protect patients from egregious wrongdoing by physicians.

This article focuses on the way that staff and guardians in the rural Nottinghamshire workhouse of Southwell sought to exert control and containment over pauper inmates. Fusing together local and central records for the period 1834–71, including locally held punishment books and correspondence at The National Archives, Kew (TNA), we argue that the notional power of the workhouse authorities was heavily shaded. Most paupers most of the time did not find their behaviour heavily and clumsily controlled. Rather, staff focused their attention in terms of detecting and punishing disorderly behaviour on a small group of long-term and often mentally ill paupers whose actions might create enmities or spiral into larger conflicts and dissent in the workhouse setting. Both inmates and those under threat of workhouse admission would have seen or heard about punishment of ‘the usual characters’. This has important implications for how we understand the intent and experience of the New Poor Law up to the formation of the Local Government Board (LGB) in 1871.

Mortality during the finishing phase in beef steers has increased over the last 13 years at a rate of 0.05% per year for cattle fed in Cactus Feeders’ operations. A change in the demographics of placements has also occurred, in that heavier weight cattle are being placed as compared to previous years. Morbidity rates are lower, but higher case fatality rates are observed when compared to years when lighter weight cattle were placed. More lung lesions of varying degree are documented at necropsy of new arrivals and there is greater perception of reduced response to therapy in animals identified with respiratory disease. As placement weights have increased, mortality in the early stages of the feeding period has decreased, resulting in a greater proportion of total death loss later in the period. This shift, in conjunction with an increasing long-term trend of total death loss, can lead to the interpretation of higher ‘late day mortality’. Rather than relying solely on observation and distributions of the data, Cactus Feeders believes that the development of a predictive model is better suited to address the potential of ‘late day mortality’ in confined cattle feeding operations.

A small group of exotic obsidian blades supplied from over 600km distant reached a particular area of the East Mound at Çatalhöyük in the Early Ceramic Neolithic (7000-6300 cal BC). The authors explore a variety of explanations and contexts, including changes in technology, agricultural expansion, gift exchange, bride-wealth and incomers from the east.

Spironolactone bodies (SB) were first described in 1963 by Janigan. These laminated, whorled structures are seen in cells of the adrenal zona glomerulosa in patients treated with the drug spironolactone. Spironolactone is an aldosterone antagonist. Hyperaldosteronism may result from excess production by the adrenal cortex. By both light microscopy and transmission electron microscopy (TEM), SB have a distinctive, laminated appearance. Kovacs, et al. observed that SB are composed of cellular constituents. To our knowledge, SB have not been analyzed using scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and electron probe microanalysis technology.
An adrenal gland with a 1 cm cortical mass was removed from a 39 year old female and received in 10% buffered formalin. Histologic examination of the mass showed a monotonous population of cells recapitulating zona glomerulosa cells. Intracytoplasmic structures compatible with SB were identified. Portions of the adrenal gland were processed for TEM and SEM analysis.

The analysis of the atomic structure of grain boundaries is often performed through the use of high-resolution transmission electron microscopy (HRTEM). A complication of the HRTEM technique is the inability to analyze directly the experimental images in order to determine projected atomic models of lattice defects. Since contrast features in HRTEM images, in general, do not correspond directly to atomic positions, experimental images are typically evaluated qualitatively through comparison with image simulation. Recently, the interest in quantitatively measuring the atomic structure of internal interfaces for comparison with theoretical calculations has motivated the development of computational methodologies to analyze HRTEM images.123 In this paper, the quantitative analysis of HRTEM images of twin boundaries in semiconductors and metals is described.
AΣ=3 coherent twin boundary in GaP was imaged along the <110> zone in a JEOL-4000EX HRTEM at Sandia National Laboratories, Livermore.

The Σ11 (113)/[110] symmetric tilt grain boundary has been characterized by high resolution transmission electron microscopy. The method by which the images are prepared for analysis is described. The statistics of the image data have been found to follow a normal distribution. The electron-optical imaging parameters used to acquire the image have been determined by non-linear least-square image simulation optimization within the perfect crystal region of the micrograph. A similar image simulation optimization procedure is used to determine the atom positions which provide the best match between the experimental image and the image simulation.

The morphology characteristic of acid-washed and annealed MgO (100) surfaces used as substrates for pulsed-laser deposition (PLD) is studied employing TEM, SEM and AFM. Each of these three microscopal techniques provides information not so readily accessible by and complementary to the other two techniques, leading to a more rounded view of the characteristic morphology of these surfaces.

The phenomenon of graphoepitaxy, whereby island nucleation occurs preferentially at steps, is a prime example of a manner in which the substrate morphology (and notably surface steps) can affect the microstructure of as-deposited thin-films. This paper provides a further illustration of the fundamental importance of the substrate morphology to the development of the thin-film microstructure, employing the example of TiO2 deposited by pulsed-laser deposition (PLD) directly onto specially prepared (100) MgO TEM foils. The same areas of these foils are imaged both before and after deposition.

Preliminary results from a study of the morphology of the MgO (100) surface after chemical etching followed by heat-treatment in air are presented. Contrast arising from the surface-steps so formed is found to be strongly dependent on the deviation parameter, suggesting that many of the step-faces are not perpendicular to the (100) foil plane but are, instead, often rather shallowly inclined.

Conditions are established whereby step heights may be measured in the acid-washed and air-annealed MgO single-crystals currently employed as substrates for pulsed-laser-deposition. Preliminary data indicates that the steps are typically a few nanometers in height.
