Pete Maravich's incredible heart

Postmortem examination of a former professional basketball player revealed an abnormal heart, most notably a single coronary artery. The literature on single coronary arteries is briefly reviewed, and the possible mechanism which caused the patient's condition is considered. This case is particularly unusual because of the patient's profession, which is so physically demanding.     

管辖异议之诉质疑——兼谈司法上的地方保护主义问题

<正> 近几年,司法上的地方保护主义愈演愈烈,它既影响了法律对当事人合法权益的保护,损害了司法机关的公正形象,同时又直接威胁到了国家法制的统一,它已成为司法界的一大公害。正是从消除并预防这一公害出发,法学界有人提出了赋予民事诉讼当事人管辖异议权并进而建立管辖异议之诉的设想,司法机关并以司法解释的形式明确确认了当事人的异议权和异议之诉。考虑到目前的现状和面临的问题,提出这样一种设想并采取这样一种做法,是可以理解的;它也能在一事一时中起点积极作用。但是,这样一种设想和做法是否具有理论基础和法律依据;尤其是,它是否能遏制住地方保护主义的蔓廷,倒是值得研究的。     

Comparison of fingernail striation patterns in identical twins.

The fingernail ridge patterns of a pair of identical twins were compared to each other, their parents, and an unrelated subject. The patterns of the twins' nails showed regions of strong similarity but were distinguishable from one another. Fewer similarities were found when comparing the nails to those of the parents and the unrelated control. The twins were shown to be monozygotic by means of DNA profiling. This therefore represents the first demonstration of unique fingernail ridge patterns in subjects shown conclusively to be identical twins. When the fingernail ridge patterns were examined with a scanning electron microscope, the backscattered electron (BEI) images were found to have superior contrast when compared to the secondary electron (SEI) images.

重大体育事件突发性公共安全问题及对策研究

城市重大体育事件是指以租用、借用或者以其他形式临时占用公共场所,面向社会公众举办,单次参加人员在10000人以上的群体性活动,包括体育比赛、体育展览展销以及含有竞技色彩的民俗活动等。在重大体育事件过程中,突发性公共安全危害可分为群体械斗事件、拥挤践踏事故两类。重大体育事件对地方发展具有的重要意义已成为我国各地政府的共识,但随着规模扩大和场次的增加,其安全保卫难度也随之提高。对重大体育事件安全保障战略和路径设计是:形成以政府为主导,以企业、非营利性组织为联盟的安全保障主体;构建灵活有效的危机安全防范体系;加强公众安全防范教育;注意体育场馆、公共场所的细节设计。     

Decision Making in Autocratic Regimes: A Poliheuristic Perspective

This paper applies the poliheuristic theory of foreign policy decision making to non-democratic states. Poliheuristic theory asserts that state leaders assign primary importance to their political survival; however, the meaning of "the political" varies dramatically from country to country. Furthermore, the types of actors who hold leaders politically accountable also vary between countries. Consequently, leaders often pursue vastly different means of ensuring their political survival. The author uses the common distinction between single-party, military, and personalist autocracies to show that apparently arbitrary differences in autocratic leaders' political concerns actually vary in systematic and potentially predictable ways. Because this argument is generalized to non-democratic states as a whole, it has important implications for the ways in which democratic states craft their policies toward autocracies.
