Abstract:
Abstract Background: Proteasome inhibitors (PIs) are important agents against myeloma, but innate and acquired resistance limit their effectiveness. We previously found Tight junction protein (TJP)-1 to be a modulator and potential biomarker of PI sensitivity, via studies of bortezomib resistant models and clinically annotated gene expression profiling (GEP) databases of patient samples. Also, we showed that its expression reduced EGFR/JAK1/STAT3 pathway activation and proteasome capacity. However, the molecular mechanisms by which TJP1 expression suppressed EGFR signaling and enhanced PI sensitivity were not understood. Methods: We performed co-immunoprecipitation (co-IP) studies to understand interactions of TJP1 with EGFR, and evaluated the impact of various cytokines on proteasome capacity. Also, genetic and pharmacologic approaches were used to modulate EGFR/JAK/STAT activity to determine the effects on PI sensitivity. Finally, gene set enrichment analyses (GSEA) were performed to determine if EGFR activation signatures could be identified in primary samples, and if they correlated with outcomes. Results: Previous studies of TJP1 focused on myeloma models, but since bortezomib is also approved for mantle cell lymphoma, we sought to determine if TJP1 influenced sensitivity here as well. Suppression of TJP1 using shRNAs reduced the sensitivity of JeKo-1 and MINO cells to bortezomib. In addition, murine embryonic stem cells (mESCs) with TJP1 knockout were more resistant to PIs than was the case for wild-type mESCs. Moreover, the TJP1 knockout mESCs expressed higher levels of both activated EGFR and immunoproteasome subunits PSMB8 and 9, and had greater levels of proteasome chymotrypsin-like (ChT-L) activity. Also, re-introduction of TJP1 into the knockout mESCs ehanced their PI sensitivity, and reduced the ChT-L activity. Co-IP studies showed that IP of TJP1 also led to detection of EGFR, and vice versa. Phospho-specific antibodies showed that TJP1 precipitated predominantly the non-phosphorylated, inactive EGFR. Indeed, when cells were treated with EGF and extracts were subjected to IP for TJP1, reduced levels of EGFR were precipitated. Evaluating other receptor tyrosine kinases, we found that TJP1 precipitated IGF-1R but not IL-6R. Therefore, we treated myeloma cells with EGF, IL-6, or IGF-1; all reduced PI sensitivity, but only EGF enhanced proteasome ChT-L activity and capacity. Moreover, shRNA-mediated EGFR knockdown, or pharmacologic inhibition with erlotininb in myeloma cells reduced JAK1/STAT3 activity, levels of PSMB8 and 9, and ChT-L activity, and enhanced the activity of bortezomib. Since the PSMB8 and PSMB9 promoters have consensus STAT3 binding sites, we knocked down STAT3 and found that this also reduced PSMB8 and 9 and ChT-L activity, and enhanced the efficacy of bortezomib. In a mouse model of lytic bone destruction by xenografted RPMI 8226 cells, the ability of bortezomib to increase bone trabecular volume was blunted by TJP1 suppression, consistent with a lower anti-myeloma effect. Lastly, we used publically available EGF-stimulated and EGFR inhibitor gene signatures to examine the clinically annotated GEP data from myeloma patients. This showed that: 1) TJP1 expression in myeloma samples from patients on the University of Arkansas Total Therapy studies was positively correlated with known signatures of inhibitors of EGFR signaling; 2) in GSEA, signatures of EGF and EGFR signaling were significantly positively enriched when genes were ranked by correlation with TJP1; and 3) an EGFR-related gene set had significant negative correlation with survival duration in the Total Therapy 3 dataset. Conclusions: Taken together, our data support the role of TJP1 as a negative regulator of EGFR signaling through its ability to specifically bind, and possibly stabilize the non-phosphorylated form of EGFR. Furthermore, they demonstrate that TJP1 influences proteasome capacity through EGFR/JAK/STAT signaling, and that approaches to suppress this pathway hold promise to overcome PI resistance and achieve PI sensitization. Finally, they validate a heretofore underappreciated role for EGF/EGFR signaling in myeloma pathobiology and patient outcomes. Disclosures Mulligan: Millennium Pharmaceuticals: Employment.

Abstract:
This study aims to explore participatory budgeting practices of a private university in Surabaya. The research method use qualitative approach. The research site is Dr. Soetomo Surabaya. Informants in this study were Rector, Vice Retor, Deans and Head of Internal Audit. The data collection is mainly with participating observation. Researchers as vice chairman of the budget committee could follow budgeting process began with budget committee meetings, leaders meetings, senate meeting until the meeting with the foundation. Data were analyzed with Miles and Huberman's (1992) qualitative analysis technique. The result indicates that Vice Rector II acts as a leader have in the context of budgeting. Rector as a leader in university level and Chairman of the Foundation acts as a leader at the foundation level. Harmony and togetherness in the budgeting process is reflected in the participation of some players in establishment of work program. This process is in a way democratic. While, the balance is reflected in the process of budgetary increase in allowances.

Abstract:
This thesis examines the regulation of women in public space in Liverpool between 1908 and 1957. It considers the complex relationship between the laws used to police solicitation, governmental debate about female prostitution and local purity campaigners’ concerns with the moral vulnerability of young, working-class, urban women. It is argued that the ways in which prostitution was understood and managed had an impact upon all women’s access to and use of public space, together with wider definitions of female morality and immorality. The thesis adds to historical understandings about the implications of prostitution regulation in the twentieth century, by moving away from London-focused histories to offer a detailed analysis of the ways in which national debates about vice were taken up at local level and with what consequences. I begin by exploring the problems with policing prostitution in the early-twentieth century and argue that increasing concern about the difficulty in differentiating prostitutes from ‘ordinary’ women provoked anxiety amongst law makers and government officials alike. It is argued that the debates canvassed by the 1927 Macmillan Committee indicate the degree to which moral codes about female sexuality informed official approaches to prostitution. The thesis considers the implications of these broad debates in Liverpool. Focusing on the work of the Liverpool Vigilance Association (LVA), it is proposed that fears about the moral threat of prostitution fuelled the organisation’s belief in the necessity of preventative patrol work centred on the moral surveillance of young, working-class women. This thesis shows that in interwar Liverpool, women’s movements were circumscribed first and foremost by their gender. Traditional, nineteenth-century ideas about women’s place within the domestic sphere created a sense among local purity campaigners that female morality was being threatened by women’s visibility in urban spaces. Other aspects of social status, such as class, race and employment experiences, heightened the interest of the LVA in targeting distinctive groups of women. The thesis demonstrates that in their efforts to regulate women’s movements through the city of Liverpool, local purists singled-out working-class and immigrant (especially Irish) women, as they believed them to be the most susceptible to corruption. This thesis draws on a wide range of archival sources, especially Home Office Records relating to the Public Places (Order) Bill and the establishment of the 1927 Macmillan Committee, as well as the LVA archive, in order to show how national and local policies on prostitution were both interdependent and distinct.

Abstract:
This thesis examines the history of Commonwealth Government higher education policy in Australia between 1958 and 1997 and its impact on the development of two groups of academic librarians: the Association of Librarians in Colleges in Advanced Education (ALCAE) and the Committee of Australian University Librarians (CAUL). Although university librarians had met occasionally since the late 1920s, it was only in 1965 that a more formal organisation, known as CAUL, was established to facilitate the exchange of ideas and information. ALCAE was set up in 1969 and played an important role helping develop a special concept of library service peculiar to the newly formed College of Advanced Education (CAE) sector. As well as examining the impact of Commonwealth Government higher education policy on ALCAE and CAUL, the thesis also explores the influence of other factors on these two groups, including the range of personalities that comprised them, and their relationship with their parent institutions and with other professional groups and organisations. The study focuses on how higher education policy and these other external and internal factors shaped the functions, aspirations, and internal dynamics of these two groups and how this resulted in each group evolving differently. The author argues that, because of the greater attention given to the special educational role of libraries in the CAE curriculum, the group of college librarians had the opportunity to participate in, and have some influence on, Commonwealth Government statutory bodies responsible for the coordination of policy and the distribution of funding for the CAE sector. The link between ALCAE and formal policy-making processes resulted in a more dynamic group than CAUL, with the university librarians being discouraged by their Vice-Chancellors from having contact with university funding bodies because of the desire of the universities to maintain a greater level of control over their affairs and resist interference from government. The circumstances of each group underwent a reversal over time as ALCAE's effectiveness began to diminish as a result of changes to the CAE sector and as member interest was transferred to other groups and organisations. Conversely, CAUL gradually became a more active group during the 1980s and early 1990s as a result of changes to higher education, the efforts of some university librarians, and changes in membership. This study is based principally on primary source material, with the story of ALCAE and CAUL being told through the use of a combination of original documentation (including minutes of meetings and correspondence) and interviews with members of each group and other key figures.

Abstract:
Die Reaktionen von Hochschullehrern und Unternehmern auf Bildungsreformen und -expansion in Westdeutschland und Britannien nach dem Zweiten Weltkrieg sind Gegenstand dieser Arbeit. Sie untersucht, wie sich beide Gruppen zu Hochschul- und Schulreformen im Besonderen und zur sozialen Öffnung im Allgemeinen äußerten. Welche bildungs- und hochschulpolitischen Interessen verfolgten diese Gruppen? Mit welchen Argumentationen versuchten sie, ihre Interessen durchzusetzen? Spielten bürgerliche Werte und Bildungsideale dabei noch eine Rolle? Herrschte eine bildungspolitische Werte- und Interessenübereinstimmung zwischen Hochschullehrern und Unternehmern, und knüpften sie gemeinsame Netzwerke zur Durchsetzung dieser Interessen? Die Arbeit bietet im ersten Teil einen Überblick über bildungspolitische Veränderungen und über gesellschaftliche Entwicklungstendenzen der Vermögens- und Einkommensverteilung sowie der Einordnung der beiden Akteursgruppen in die jeweilige Prestige- und Sozialstruktur ihrer Länder. Im zweiten Teil folgt eine Analyse ihrer bildungspolitischen Aussagen auf Hinweise einer Existenz von bürgerlichen Werten und Abgrenzungsversuchen gegenüber nicht-bürgerlichen Schichten. Im dritten Teil werden schließlich bildungspolitische Netzwerke und Gremien nach ihrer Zusammensetzung und -arbeit betrachtet. Damit möchte die Arbeit einen Beitrag zur Frage leisten, ob nach 1945 weiterhin ein Bürgertum mit einem Berufsgruppen übergreifenden Standesbewusstsein existierte, oder ob dieses in einzelne Berufsgruppen wie Hochschullehrer und Unternehmer mit je eigenen Interessen und Identifikationen zerfallen war.
This thesis compares the responses of university lecturers and business people to educational reform and expansion in West Germany and Britain in the postwar period. It examines how these groups reacted to increased social mobility in general, and university and school reform in particular. How did they attempt to persuade others of their position? Did middle-class values and educational ideals play a role? To what extent did the values and interests of university lecturers and business people intersect, and did they create networks to achieve their goals? The first part of this study surveys the postwar social and educational landscape, changes in income and wealth distribution, as well as the position of university lecturers and business people in each country. Part two analyses both groups’ positions on education, with particular reference to the existence of middle-class values and attempts to define themselves in relation to other classes. The final part explores how networks and bodies on education issues were set up and how they pursued their work. This study contributes to the debate as to whether a middle-class group identity existed in the postwar period, or whether this identity had disintegrated into individual professional groups, each with their own interests and identifications.

Abstract:
Abstract Hasson provides an examination of menstrual suppression technologies and the implications they have on understanding menstruation as both quintessentially natural and socially constructed, and even what ‘counts’ as menstruation. Taking the case of birth control pills, Hasson studies menstrual suppression by analyzing medical journal articles, FDA advisory committee transcripts, and website marketing. Across these contexts, she finds that new definitions of ‘menstruation’ converge on the distinction between bleeding that occurs when women are taking hormonal birth control and when they are not. Finally, Hasson draws attention to the concept of redefining a biological process that is deeply significant for gendered embodiment, as well as a challenge to consider both the social and material construction of gendered bodies.

Abstract:
This chapter examines the investigations that began following the revelation that the Central Intelligence Agency operated an illegal domestic surveillance system. Three investigations emerged: a blue-ribbon presidential commission chaired by Vice President Nelson Rockefeller, a Senate Select Committee chaired by Frank Church (D-ID), and a House Select Committee chaired by Otis Pike (D-NY). The investigations were quickly sidetracked by stories about the CIA’s involvement in assassinations; ultimately, a main area of focus for the Church Committee in particular would be assassinations. The media environment reflected the tremendous controversy over the CIA and the increasingly partisan nature of politics and news coverage, as some commentators were divided between supporting the CIA and criticizing the investigations, whereas others were ambivalent and uncertain about what should be done. Even during this tumultuous period, the press was still willing to cooperate with the CIA when Director of Central Intelligence William Colby requested their cooperation in suppressing a story about the CIA’s efforts to raise a sunken Soviet submarine.

Abstract:
Abstract When Margaret Anderson and Jane Heap agreed with Ezra Pound that the Little Reviewshould undertake the serial publication of Ulysses,they fully expected their decision to result in the suppression of their magazine. They also believed Ulysseswas worth it; as Pound said, Ulysseswas “obscure, even obscene, as life itself is obscene in places, but an impassioned meditation on life.”1 For Anderson, Ulyssesembodied “direct opposition to the prevalent art values in America,” which she saw as the primary function of the Little Review,and at first she was committed to publishing Joyce’s work uncut.2 Despite subsequent editorial interference, first by Pound and later by Anderson herself, Ulyssessucceeded in landing the two women editors in a New York courtroom. In September 1920 a lawyer complained to the district attorney that his daughter had received an unsolicited copy of the July-August issue of the Little Review,containing the concluding part of “Nausicaa,” the thirteenth episode of Ulysses,in which Gerty MacDowell exhibits herself before the masturbating hero, Leopold Bloom. The district attorney called in John S. Sumner, secretary of the New York Society for the Prevention of Vice, and after a preliminary hearing in October 1920 the trial was set for February 1921. Despite hearing testimony that Ulysseswould not corrupt the mind of a young girl, the three judges found Anderson and Heap guilty of publishing “indecent matter,” and fined them $50 each.

This chapter discusses Article 18 of the Convention against Torture, covering the chronology of draft texts, analysis of Working Group discussions, and issues of interpretation. Article 18 of the Convention against Torture corresponds to Articles 35 to 39 of the International Covenant on Civil and Political Rights. The Committee against Torture, as the Human Rights Committee, elects its officers (a Chairperson, three Vice-chairpersons, and a Rapporteur) and adopts its own Rules of Procedure, subject only to the procedural provisions in Articles 19 to 22, and a few other rules contained in the Convention. The Rules of Procedure of the Committee are modelled on those of the Human Rights Committee which, in turn, are based on the Rules of Procedure of the Committee on the Elimination on Racial Discrimination.

Abstract:
Abstract There are important ways in which Australian regulation of aggressive tax planning is more innovative than US approaches, other ways in which it is less sophisticated and other respects still in which both Australian and US policies are less effective than they could be. Corporate tax collections in Australia have climbed substantially as a proportion of GDP over the past two decades even though tax rates have fallen. Referring to this, Australian Commissioner Michael Carmody, in evidence before the Senate Economic References Committee of 9 February 2000, said, “it is fair to conclude that this reflects, at least in some part, compliance improvement following from our strategies”. The ways in which this indeed might be fair relate to some shifts to a responsive regulatory strategy within a sophisticated web of controls that includes strategic use of Australia’s general anti-avoidance provision, the work of the ATO Promoters Taskforce, the High Wealth Individuals Taskforce and meta risk management strategies.

Abstract:
This chapter assesses Article 17 of the Convention, which provides for the establishment of the Committee on the Elimination of Discrimination against Women. Article 17 resembles the provisions establishing the other United Nations human rights treaty monitoring bodies, with a noteworthy difference in the envisaged enlargement of the Committee from eighteen to twenty-three members after the thirty-fifth ratification. The primary function of the Committee envisaged in the Convention is to consider States parties’ progress in implementing the Convention by means of the reporting procedure (Article 18), which was later supplemented by the individual communications and inquiry procedures of the Optional Protocol. Since 1987, the Committee has participated in the meetings of Chairpersons of the Human Rights Treaty Bodies, a forum in which problems that the treaty bodies have in common are discussed and where working methods are streamlined. These meetings have impacted upon the work of the Committee and vice versa.

Abstract:
This chapter describes Article 19 of the Convention on the Elimination of All Forms of Discrimination against Women (CEDAW). Article 19 provides that the CEDAW Committee shall adopt its own rules of procedure and elect its officers for a term of two years. The CEDAW Committee has determined that it shall have five officers: one Chairperson, three Vice-Chairpersons, and a Rapporteur. The Rules of Procedure reflect the development of the Committee’s working methods over the past four decades. The text of the treaty is relatively brief on the Committee’s mandate to examine reports. This has allowed the Committee important discretion to develop its methods in order to strengthen the effectiveness of the reporting procedure by adopting concluding observations, developing a follow-up procedure, and by inviting national human rights institutions (NHRIs) and non-governmental organizations (NGOs) to submit information. For these actors, however, it is a time-consuming process to determine the applicable working methods and rules. This requires consulting annual reports and additional sources on the website to obtain a complete picture. Over the years, the Committee has adopted numerous decisions on its practice, which regularly leads to an amendment of its Rules of Procedure.

Abstract:
The First Annual Meeting of the Latin American and Caribbean Public Debt Management Specialists took place in Rio de Janeiro on March 17, 18 and 19, 2005. This Meeting was organized and funded by the Inter-American Development Bank (Infrastructure and Financial Markets Division of the Bank's Sustainable Development Department) and the Brazilian National Treasury. Senior officials from the Debt Management Offices (DMOs) and Central Banks of nineteen LAC countries, Spain, Italy, Portugal and Denmark participated in this meeting, as well as experts from the OECD, IMF, UNCTAD, The World Bank, and the Central American Monetary Council. Staff from different areas of the Inter-American Bank (Regional and Financial Departments) also attended the presentations and discussions during the meeting. The main objective of this meeting was the consolidation of the general framework to structure and guide the actions of such group of Latin American and Caribbean specialists. The group will foster an approach that will lead to continuous sharing of experiences across countries and privilege technical discussions involving a broad group of debt management analysts that deal with back, middle and front-office issues. The agenda also included the approval of the previously discussed Bylaws and the election of the first Steering Committee composed by: Brazil (President), Colombia (Vice president), Chile, Jamaica, Mexico and Panama. The role of Executive Secretary was designated to the Inter-American Development Bank. The proposal was enthusiastically supported by all the countries' representatives that pledged to immediately start working in the implementation of the group's objectives.
