A quasi experimental design with pre and post test using an isokinetic dynamometer and a densitometer to perform the measurement was carried out. A total of 39 participants were divided according to the level of physical activity, body composition and sex into three training groups (TG)…

OP70 Prioritising Outcome Measures for Ambulance Service Care
Background Historically ambulance care quality and performance has been measured by response times rather than clinical need or effectiveness. This limits the evidence about the effectiveness of the care the ambulance service provides. The Pre-hospital Outcomes for Evidence Based Evaluation (PhOEBE) project is a 5 year research programme which aims to develop new ways of measuring the performance, quality and impact of ambulance service care that…
Trading in Drugs through Philadelphia in the Eighteenth Century
In the eighteenth century, an ingoing trade in medicinals was conducted with North America largely if not exclusively by smaller suppliers and firms. The steady demographic growth in the thirteen colonies due to European immigration and African slave labour was accompanied by a parallel growth in demand for both medicinals and their constituent raw materials, whether plant or mineral, and for proven or at least familiar proprietary medicines. By …
The Legal and Regulatory Aspects of Islamic Banking
As Islamic banking has spread, there has been increasing debate about whether specific laws need to be enacted or whether it can be accommodated within existing legislation with the onus on the regulatory authorities to manage the financial risks and protect bank clients. Malaysia has an Islamic banking law and detailed regulatory provision for Islamic banks. The United Kingdom has no specific Islamic banking legislation, although successive Fina…

Aesthetics and its Discontents * The Aesthetic Unconscious
The two short books under review here are the most recent translations of works by the French philosopher Jacques Rancière. Some might be tempted to view the evident interest in Rancière's work among British and American philosophers of a continental bent as merely the latest instance of a besotted fascination with modish French iconoclasts, all determined to dismantle much of what proceeds under the heading of ‘philosophy’ and certainly to take …

Ecology without Nature
ENTHUSIASTIC ecologists might suspect, from the title of his book, that Timothy Morton is set on undermining their cause from within. Ecology without nature? Wouldn’t that be like, say, animal rights without animals? Or without rights? Those same devotees of nature would certainly want us to think—and to act—seriously with regard to the environment, to confront it and our relationship with it in a new, more responsible way. It might seem, again, …

Culture in the context of intercultural negotiation
This study explores culture's effect on behaviors and outcomes in intercultural negotiation and examines how those effects are moderated by role. Eighty U.S. and international students took part in a previously developed negotiation task (Pruitt, 1981) and completed Hui and Triandis's (1986) individualism-collectivism (INDCOL) scale. Negotiation interactions were coded for information sharing, offers, and distributive tactics. Findings show that …

Socioeconomic circumstances and the risk of bowel cancer in Northern Ireland
OBJECTIVE: To describe the variation in the incidence of colorectal cancer across Northern Ireland and relate it to factors associated with community deprivation.

Small areas were characterised by their "affluence", or lack of it, by deriving a Townsend deprivation score for each electoral ward, usin…
Part-time work and full-time higher education
This paper reports the results of a random sample survey of term-time employment amongst full-time undergraduates in four institutions. There is a belief that the incidence of employment is increasing, with detrimental effects for academic performance, but the supporting evidence is typically drawn from studies of specific institutions and/or specific groups of students. This paper offers a more widely-based estimate of the incidence of employmen…
Implications of Border Cave Skeletal Remains for Later Pleistocene Human Evolution [and Comments and Reply]
Recent excavations have helped to clarify the cultural and stratigraphic sequences at Border Cave, and human skeletal remains recovered at this South African site may well be associated with a Middle Stone Age industry. A partial adult cranium is of particular interest, and this was originally described as quite different both from African Negro and from Bushman individuals. Eleven measurements were taken on the fossil, and these provide a basis …

Infant botulism in the United States
Data were obtained for the 96 hospitalized cases of infant botulism reported to the Centers for Disease Control between 1976-1980 from all states other than California. Forty-one cases were associated with Clostridium botulinum type A, 53 with type B, one with type F, and one with a strain of C. botulinum capable of producing both type B and F toxin. Cases occurred in 25 states; the disease was more common in the western part of the United States…

Resource Allocation and Planning in Health Care Systems
Resource allocation formulae and planning models have both been suggested as methods for calculating how to distribute funds for health care between a number of geographical regions. Recently, consideration has been given to how to link these two methods. An attempt is made in this paper to demonstrate the connection that exists between certain resource allocation formulae and planning models. Although this dependency may be a useful theoretical …
