Abstract:
In this study a combination of computer tools for coupling and virtual screening is detailed, in 108 active molecules and 3620 decoys to find stabilizers for G quadruplex (G4). To have more precise results, combinations of coupling programs with fifteen energy scoring functions were applied. The validation and evaluation of the metrics was done with the CompScore genetic algorithm. The results showed an increase in BEDROC and EF of 50% compared to other strategies, as well as reflecting early recognition of active molecules. From these results it is possible to work with the molecules that showed a good early recognition and evaluate their effect as G4 stabilizers. This ensures more efficient and accurate results in the preclinical stage for the development of anticancer drugs. Keywords: Enrichment metrics; telomere; G quadruplex (G4); CompScore.

Abstract:
Resilient modulus ( M R) which properly characterizes the load-deformation response of pavement materials under traffic loading, is evaluated. The M R values due to three different gradations and three different moisture contents were investigated for the Richard Spur and the Sawyer aggregates, which are commonly used in Oklahoma as the subbase or base materials of roadway pavements. The three gradations were finer limit, median, and coarser limit, as specified by the Oklahoma Department of Transportation for Type A aggregate. The three moisture contents selected are optimum moisture content (OMC), 2 percent below OMC, and 2 percent above OMC. To investigate the variability of the test results, six duplicate M R tests under identical conditions were performed for each case by using the AASHTO T294-94 method. Furthermore, the material properties, K1 and K2, which are required input in the AASHTO pavement design equation, were evaluated for the M R values obtained. Finally, multiple linear regression models for predicting the M R values of the two aggregates were established.

Coetzee, Pieter Hendrik. "Form and substance in R.M. Hare's utilitarianism." Thesis, Rhodes University, 1992. http://hdl.handle.net/10962/d1002836.

Full text
Abstract:
Throughout his career as moral philosopher Hare has insisted that there is a rational way of arriving at substantive moral judgements. Hare develops this view - first presented in ' The language of morals' (1952) and ' Universalizability' (1955) - into the claim that rational agents are required to adopt utilitarian solutions to moral disputes. In ' Freedom and reason ' (1963) this claim is defended with reference to the view that the formal features of moral language (universalizability and prescriptivity)commit moral agents to a certain method of reasoning, and that this method of reasoning, when conjoined with facts about people's desires and preferences, leads us to accept substantive moral judgements consistent with those required by a form of utilitarianism. This view features throughout Hare's subsequent work, but the argument for it undergoes change. This means change in the defence of the claim that the meta-theory Universal Prescriptivism is consistent with a form of normative utilitarian theory, as this claim is argued for in 'Ethical theory and utilitarianism' (1976) and 'Moral Thinking' (1981). I shall endeavour to trace the chronological development of Hare's thinking, and will concentrate on developments in the argument for a theory of act-utilitarianism. I shall argue that the argument for utilitarianism gives rise to two major problems which arise from a specific feature of the argument, namely, the attempt to run the resolution of bi-lateral and multi-lateral cases of conflict along lines analogous to the resolution of conflict in the single-person case. Hare's argument requires that a decision-maker must identify the person with whom he reverses roles as himself, and that he must be prepared to concede that the things his recipient has good reasons for wanting are also reasons for him to want the same things. I argue that it is not possible to make coherent sense of the identity of the person in the reversed-role situation and that the motivational states a decision -maker is expected to deem 'his own' are not properly states of himself. If I am right, the 'identity'-question sits at the root of a motivational gap in Hare's theory.

Full text
Abstract:
This thesis looks at two theories of universalizability: Immanuel Kant's deontological one and R. M. Hare's utilitarian one. It also looks at criticisms of both theories by David Wiggins. It concludes that his arguments against Hare are decisive because the moral theory that follows from Hare's version of the claim that moral judgements must be universalizable is incompatible with several basic requirements on moral theories. Wiggins' criticism of Kant, on the other hand, centres on a technical point that is overcome by an interpretation of Kant's tests for the universalizability of maxims that is given by Onora Nell. Finally the thesis argues that Kant's rational theory of ethics is superior to Wiggins' subjectivist claims because it both reflects our common sense conception of ethics and provides a rational basis for evaluating moral judgements.

Abstract:
This dissertation treats about the relation between information and action in moral judgments. First of all, we explicit the logical problem, called antinomy, present in the descriptive ethics theories which do not admit the prescriptive factor of the moral judgments. Secondly we present the logical problem, called paradox, present in Austin s linguistic theory (which gave rise to the ethical prescriptivism) that does not admit the descriptive factor of moral judgments. After that, we present Hare s theory as synthesis, which gathers descriptive and prescriptive factors, and, because of this, does not make the same mistakes of the theories previously developed. Although, some critics - Geach, Sen and Azevedo accused Hare of being an existential descriptivist. More precisely, Sen and Geach accused him of being descriptivist, whereas Sen and Azevedo accused him of being existentialist. This work shows that those accusations occur because of the failure in the interpretation of the relation between descriptive and prescriptive factors on Hare s formulation about moral judgments. For the author, the supervenience (which guarantees that the moral choices must be the same when the same factual elements are presented) is the fundament of the universalizability (which guarantees that the moral action must be the same independently of the roles played on the moral action). However, these formulations do not prevent that the author of the moral judgment gather more information and start acting differently, which would not be possible for a descriptivist. Because of this, we formulated a symbolic model, which relates cultural pattern, prescribed pattern and value; and, moreover, which shows the temporal aspects and the change aspects. Another issue is about the necessity of the critical thought, for Hare, in the formulation of universal ethics. So, this work will explicit the reasons why Hare cannot be called existential descriptivist.
Esta dissertação trata da relação entre informação e ação nos juízos morais. Primeiramente é explicitado o problema lógico, denominado de antinomia, presentes nas teorias éticas descritivistas que não admitem o fator prescritivo dos juízos morais. Em segundo lugar, é apresentado o problema lógico, denominado de paradoxo, presente na teoria lingüística de Austin (que deu origem ao prescritivismo ético) a qual não admite o fator descritivo dos juízos morais. Posteriormente, a teoria de Hare é apresentada como síntese, que une o fator descritivo e o prescritivo, e que, por isso, não comete os mesmos erros das teorias desenvolvidas anteriormente. Porém, alguns críticos Geach, Sen e Azevedo acusaram Hare de ser um descritivista existencial. Mais precisamente: Sen e Geach o acusaram de ser descritivista; ao passo que Sen e Azevedo o acusaram de ser existencialista. Este trabalho mostra que estas acusações ocorrem pela falha na interpretação da relação entre fator descritivo e prescritivo na formulação de Hare sobre os juízos morais. Para o autor, a superveniência (que garante que as escolhas morais devem ser as mesmas, quando apresentados os mesmos elementos fatuais) é o fundamento da universalizabilidade (que garante que a ação moral deve ser a mesma independente dos papéis representados na ação moral). Mas, essas formulações não impedem que o autor do juízo moral reúna novas informações e passe a agir de forma diferente, o que não seria possível para um descritivista. Por isso, formulamos um modelo simbólico, o qual relaciona padrão cultural, padrão prescrito e valor; e, além disso, que mostra os aspectos temporais e de mudança. Outra questão gira em torno da necessidade do pensamento crítico, para Hare, na formulação de uma ética universal. Dessa forma, neste trabalho ficará explicitado os motivos pelos quais Hare não poder ser chamado de descritivista existencial.

Abstract:
This paper will examine the notion of altruism in blood donation as discussed in Richard M. Titmuss's, The Gift Relationship: from human blood to social policy. We consider Titmuss's views and assumptions about altruism and conclude that Titmuss's account of altruism is not incompatible with a religious motivation such as 'regard for the other' found in the concept of covenant. We propose that the covenant relationship between persons and/or institutions obliges those within the relationship to affirm responsibility for one another that in turn deepens altruistically based relationships as promoted in non-paid, voluntary blood systems.

Ducasse, Pierre-Marc. "Melvin Laird et la vietnamisation : nouvelle analyse du rôle du secrétaire à la défense." Mémoire, 2011. http://www.archipel.uqam.ca/4040/1/M11842.pdf.

Full text
Abstract:
En janvier 1969, lorsque Melvin Laird devient secrétaire à la Défense, son département doit faire face à la guerre du Vietnam. Il se retrouve avec un poste en crise de crédibilité, un département qui draine une grande partie du budget national et un puissant mécontentement populaire qui exige que les choses changent. Laird est devant un défi de taille. Alors que la seule option réellement mise de l'avant par le gouvernement Nixon est celle des négociations entreprises à Paris avec le Nord Vietnam, Laird réussit à influencer Nixon afin que soit appliqué en parallèle un nouveau programme qu'il nomme la vietnamisation. Ce programme vise à assurer le retrait des troupes américaines du Vietnam, indépendamment des résultats des négociations, en équipant et en formant les forces sud-vietnamiennes pour qu'elles prennent en charge la poursuite des combats. Afin d'assurer la pérennité de l'État sud-vietnamien après le départ des États-Unis, ce programme est aussi doublé d'objectifs civils (politiques, économiques et sociaux). L'historiographie de cette époque laisse généralement de côté l'apport du secrétaire à la Défense dans les évènements entourant la fin de la guerre du Vietnam. Elle concentre plutôt son attention sur les négociations de Paris en soulignant l'influence et l'importance qu'eut Henri Kissinger sur leur conclusion bienheureuse en 1973. Grâce aux nombreuses monographies sur le sujet, aux mémoires publiés par les politiciens, conseillers et militaires de l'époque, mais surtout grâce aux archives personnelles de Melvin Laird lui-même, nous nous proposons de démontrer la grande influence qu'eut Laird sur le président Nixon et sur les évènements ayant mené à la fin de la guerre du Vietnam. En passant en revue son long parcours professionnel, débutant au Sénat du Wisconsin en 1946, nous avons voulu faire ressortir l'évolution de sa pensée et de ses positions politiques, ainsi que retracer les liens qu'il a entretenus avec Richard Nixon au cours des deux décennies précédents leur arrivée au pouvoir. Ensuite, nous nous sommes concentrés sur l'année 1969, alors qu'en tant que secrétaire à la Défense, Laird travaille avec acharnement pour que soit mise en place la vietnamisation. Nous avons constaté le rôle déterminant qu'a tenu ce programme dans le retrait des troupes américaines du Vietnam, réalisant concrètement le désengagement américain, pendant que les négociations de Paris demeuraient dans l'impasse. Ce programme, qui fut institué comme la nouvelle stratégie des États-Unis au Vietnam, a permis de satisfaire une partie de l'opinion publique américaine, donnant le temps nécessaire au président et à Kissinger de poursuivre les négociations. La vietnamisation a donné au Sud Vietnam la force requise pour tenir tête au Nord Vietnam. De cette résistance ont découlé les accords de Paris ayant mené à la fin de la guerre, permettant ainsi aux États-Unis de tourner la page. Grâce à cette étude, il a été possible de cerner l'influence à long terme de la vietnamisation sur l'histoire américaine. ______________________________________________________________________________ MOTS-CLÉS DE L’AUTEUR : Melvin Laird, guerre du Vietnam, vietnamisation, Richard Nixon, Doctrine Nixon.

Abstract:
José Barluenga of the Universidad de Oviedo described (Organic Lett. 2008, 10, 4469) a powerful route from lithiated arenes such as 1 to the benzocyclobutane 3, the immediate precursor to the powerful o-quinone methide Diels-Alder diene. Michael E. Jung of UCLA developed (Organic Lett. 2008, 10, 3647) a triflimide catalyst for the inverse electron demand coupling of the highly substituted diene 4 with the enol ether 5 to give 6 with high diastereocontrol. Joseph M. Fox of the University of Delaware showed (J. Org. Chem. 2008, 73, 4283) that the cyclopropene carboxylate 8 was a powerful and selective dienophile. Richard P. Hsung and Kevin P. Cole of the University of Wisconsin finally (Adv. Synth. Cat. 2008, 350, 2885) reduced to practice the long-sought enantioselective Diels-Alder cycloaddition of a trisubstituted aldehyde, 11. Li Deng of Brandeis University devised (J. Am. Chem. Soc. 2008, 130, 2422) a Cinchona -derived catalyst for Diels-Alder cycloaddition to the diene 13 with high ee. Miguel Á. Sierra of the Universidad Complutense, Madrid, and Alejandra G. Suárez of the Universidad Nacional de Rosario described (Organic Lett. 2008, 10, 3389) a clever switchable chiral auxiliary 16 that favored diastereomer S-18 on thermal addition, but R-18 with EtAlCl2. New approaches to the intramolecular Diels-Alder reaction continue to be introduced. Mathias Christmann, now at the TU Dortmund, showed (Angew. Chem. Int. Ed. 2008, 47, 1450) that a secondary amine organocatalyst converted the prochiral dialdehyde 19 into the bicyclic diene 20 with high de and ee. Martin G. Banwell of the Australian National University prepared (Organic Lett. 2008, 10, 4465) the triene 21 in high ee by microbiological oxidation of iodobenzene. On warming, 21 was converted smoothly into 22, which was carried on in a formal synthesis of platencin. Jun-ichi Matsuo of Kanazawa University was able (Organic Lett. 2008, 10, 4049) to induce (neat, 180 °C) the intermolecular Diels-Alder cycloaddition of 23 with 24, delivering the cycloadduct 25 with 11:1 diastereocontrol.
