Observer determination of the make,model, and year of questioned vehicles

Often, criminal acts involving a vehicle are caught on digital video surveillance systems. While potentially useful for an investigation, the recording conditions are typically less than optimal for the extraction of key information for the identification of the perpetrator, such as a license plate. Providing the make, model and year of a questioned vehicle is a common request for examiners, to narrow the field of potential suspect vehicles. This study seeks to compare the performance of a nonpeer-reviewed make, model, and year determination between two separate groups, specifically, trained forensic image examiners and nontrained individuals. Results show that even with varied image capture conditions and quality, the trained forensic image examiners more correctly and completely identified the test group of questioned vehicles make, model, and year.     

Forensic Application of Analytical Mechanics in Fatal Fall From a Height

Fatal fall from a height initiated with a swinging motion on the sagittal plane of the victim's body is examined. Method of analytical mechanics is adopted to establish the functional relations between the swinging angle of the body and the force needed to sustain the body until release, and the amount of the horizontal displacement that would occur after release. The analysis is applied to support an expert opinion presented in a criminal court in which two accused were convicted of murder for dropping a female victim from a bridge. The results indicate that it is unlikely for the body to locate as recorded by the police investigation report in the case. This study demonstrates that a straightforward mechanical analysis can be utilized to examine uncommon falling scenarios.     

相对集中行政处罚权：立法模式与制度创新

相对集中行政处罚权实践是我国行政管理体制的创新举措,已经取得了较明显的效果。但目前囿于立法层次较低,且各地规范不一,极大地阻碍了这一新生事物的进一步成长。因此我们应在统一立法和系统全面立法的基础上,尽快制定一部法律或行政法规系统规范该制度。同时加强诸如表明身份制度、说明理由制度、阅卷制度、时效制度、格式化制度、职能分离制度、案卷排他性制度等研究,以丰富和完善该处罚权的实践。     

铜对生长猪肝中IGF-Ⅰ基因mRNA表达的影响

采用生长试验、免疫放射分析和定量PCR方法,观察了生长猪血液中类胰岛素生长因子(IGF-I)及其结合蛋白(IGFBP3)数量的变化和IGF-I基因在肝中表达量的变化。结果显示, 每1 kg饲料中添加125-250 mg铜,能够上调IGF-I基因的表达量,显著提高猪的平均日增重,促进生长猪循环血液中IGF-I浓度的增加。试验结果证实,铜是通过促进生长激素-胰岛素样生长因子轴相关因子的合成和分泌来发挥促生长作用的。     

论新时期公安院校形象设计

公安院校形象设计是公安院校寻求广泛社会支持、提高综合竞争力、满足不同社会群体心理诉求的总体规划。设计良好、有特色的高校形象,要在确立办学理念的前提下,通过行为识别系统规范学校运行,通过视觉识别系统提升学校形象,并根据情况分别采用以传播媒介为主、以交际为主、以服务为主、以自我完善为主等不同的模式。     

Data Protection: An Opening Door?

Swedish public law has incorporated a general rule of public access to documents, and to information in the wider sense, since the Freedom of the Press Act of 1766. On the Community level, the relationship between Regulation (EC) 45/2001 on data protection and Regulation (EC) 1049/2001 on public access to documents exemplifies the tension between the public's interest in scrutinising the administration carried on in its name, and the integrity of the individual. However, a similar tension exists between Sweden's Personal Data Act of 1998, implementing Directive 95/46, and the Freedom of the Press Act. A misuse model of data protection law, by seeking to concentrate on serious rather than technical infringements of privacy, might serve to ease the tension. The views expressed in this article are solely those of the author and are not attributable to any Community institution.

Managing commercial risks in open source software licensing

Legal context: The article reviews the commercial risk allocation clauses intypical open source licence terms and discusses their enforceabilityand implications. Key points: The enforceability of warranty disclaimers and limitation ofliability clauses in common open source licence terms is questionable,particularly in a cross-border context, and commercial licensorsshould take additional steps to protect themselves from down-streamrisks. Practical significance: Open source software presents a number of unusual commercialissues, because it is available free of charge and the providerstry to disclaim warranties and liabilities. End users and resellershave to adjust their own in- and out-licensing models to accommodatethis situation.     

猪圆环病毒2型感染裸鼠及BALB/c小鼠的研究

用猪圆环病毒2型(PCV2)经腹腔注射BALB/c小鼠及裸鼠各15只,每隔2周1次,共感染3次。BALB/c小鼠初次、再次感染后均未出现明显的临床症状,仅有2只小鼠出现病理变化;从血清中可检测到PCV2核酸及其ORF2抗体;同时淋巴细胞增殖反应显著增强,NK和CTL细胞杀伤率显著升高;CD4+、CD8+、CD3+T淋巴细胞及CD19+B淋巴细胞数量显著减少。裸鼠也未出现明显的临床症状,从血清中可检测到PCV2核酸,但未检测到PCV2 ORF2抗体;除NK细胞杀伤率显著升高外,其余免疫学指标无显著改变。结果表明,BALB/c小鼠比裸鼠对PCV2易感,各项免疫学指标变化与PCV2感染猪一致,但不表现临床症状,仅个别BALB/c小鼠出现病理变化,说明BALB/c小鼠对PCV2不如猪易感。     

猪生殖与呼吸综合征病毒GP5蛋白抗原表位基因的表达及其表达产物的抗原性

为了确定猪生殖与呼吸综合征病毒GP5蛋白A、B抗原表位之间的相互关系和对免疫的影响,应用PCR方法扩增出A、B抗原表位基因并分别克隆于原核和真核表达载体中。原核重组质粒表达的重组蛋白经Western-blotting检测证明,该重组蛋白具有良好的抗原性。将重组蛋白和真核表达质粒免疫小鼠,前者可诱导产生针对PRRSV的特异性ELISA抗体,但是此抗体没有中和活性;后者不能诱导免疫小鼠产生PRRSV特异性抗体。结果表明,中和抗体的产生不但与A、B表位的空间构象有很大的关系,如果蛋白质分子质量过小也不能诱导机体产生有效的免疫反应。     

宪法与刑事诉讼法关系模式的发展趋势--紧密型关系模式的普遍化

由于宪政的深入发展、刑事诉讼中权力与权利关系冲突的日益加剧、人本主义的滥觞、法律形态的程序化等方面的原因,宪法与刑事诉讼法关系变得更加紧密,世界范围内正逐渐形成紧密型关系模式的普遍化趋势.
