Abstract:
Abstract This article marshals ancient legal evidence to show that Nephi’s slaying of Laban should be understood as a protected manslaughter rather than a criminal homicide. The biblical law of murder demanded a higher level of premeditation and hostility than Nephi exhibited or modern law requires. It is argued that Exodus 21:13 protected more than accidental slayings or unconscious acts, particularly where God was seen as having delivered the victim into the slayer’s hand. Various rationales for Nephi’s killing of Laban are explored, including ancient views on surrendering one person for the benefit of a whole community. Other factors within the Book of Mormon as well as in Moses’ killing of the Egyptian in Exodus 2 corroborate the conclusion that Nephi did not commit the equivalent of a first-degree murder under the laws of his day.

Abstract:
This article explains how nanomechanics can be used to treat metastatic cancer. Metastatic cancers are the cancers that spread from the organ in which they originated to other organs. Indeed, the rate at which metastatic cancers, especially those that grow in the lungs, liver, and brain, are cured remains abysmally low and they are responsible for the vast majority of cancer deaths. Nanodrugs in current clinical use have extended the lives of many metastatic patients on the order of weeks to months. The nanodrugs use nanoparticle materials such as liposomes and albumin to be injected into the bloodstream. These nanoparticles can also be added with a decoration of biomolecular recognition agents on the surfaces, such as antibodies that recognize cancer specifically. A new, multifunctional therapeutic agent (MSV-pX) has also been demonstrated by researchers which completely cured about 50 percent of animals with breast cancers, metastatic to the lungs, in several different mouse models.

Abstract:
Calvert Watkins definitively illustrated the connections between the Vedics laying of the dragon Vr̥tra by the thunder-god Indra and the storm-god dragon slaying myths of the both ancient Iran (Aži Dahāka) and Indo-European Hittites (Illuyanka). But there are actually two Hittite dragon-slaying myths – the other, Hurrian in origin, concerning the storm god Teshub – and the relationship between the two remains unclear. The Hurrian-Hittite myth clearly underlies the Canaanite storm-god dragon slaying, but the connection of the latter to an independent Semitic dragon-slaying myth is also unclear. Is there a separate Semitic myth at all, or does the dissemination of these mythological motifs all go back to Indo-European Hittites and Indo-Europeans among the Hurrians? And if there is a Semitic myth, did it disseminate from the Levant southeastward to Mesopotamia with the spread of the Amorites in the early 2nd millennium or was there an originally-Sumerian dragon-slaying myth already in Southern Mesopotamia? And what are we to do when specificmotifsoftheearliest Mesopotamian form reappear in the late Iranian Shahname? This essay tracks the dragon across the ancient Near East, as similar myths fed into each other, their elements interweaving and combining in new forms.

Abstract:
ABSTRACT California's Oil Spill Response Organization (OSRO) and Plan-Holder Unannounced Drill Programs have provided an opportunity for state, Federal, and industry representatives to work together to ensure that the best achievable response for the State of California is attained. As a result of the success of these two initial programs, the Office of Spill Prevention and Response (OSPR) considers unannounced drills to be the cornerstone of response resource assessment. Unannounced drills present an opportunity to practice and improve how the OSROs and plan-holders (tank vessels, non-tank vessels, and facilities) respond to oil spills by testing contingency plans, reviewing the systems approach, and revealing issues that may hamper an oil spill response. The OSRO unannounced drills test the OSRO's response capabilities for the first six hours of a response, while the plan-holder drills test the owner/operator's ability to initiate a response to a spill incident, based on the owner/operator's contingency plan, for the first three hours of a response. Unannounced OSRO and plan-holder drills both require government agency notification, equipment activation and deployment, and response resources to be operated. Since the only way to evaluate how a plan-holder's team will respond in an emergency is to evaluate them in a non-emergency, adding the element of surprise allows the state to better make the determination as to the adequacy of their preparedness. Non-tank vessel, tank vessel, and facility operators are also required to conduct to plan-holder initiated drills, and these have also been highly successful. Part of the success of these drills is that they have revealed potential problems, for which plan-holder-initiated solutions or OSPR regulatory fixes have been identified and proposed. Through this process, the California Unannounced Drill Program has evolved from being planning standard-based to performance standard-based for OSROs. Under new legislation that reflects the OSRO performance requirements (Government Code 8670.29), plan-holders must now contract with one or more state-rated OSROs to meet contingency plan requirements and an OSRO will only be granted a state rating by participating in unannounced drills.

Abstract:
This article reads Edward Said’s Beginnings as a theoretical attempt and a pragmatic ideology that reestablishes revolutionary notions of fundamental intellectual devotees of individualism. A theorist himself, Said emphasizes the urge for deconstructions in facing canonized values and methodologies that continue to shape our ways of thinking. Beginnings: Intention and Method (1975) inaugurates a writing style that liberates individuals from the shackles of outdated institutions , political systems, and cultural norms. The researcher attempts to prove that such intellectuality parallels Ralph Emerson’s conception of “self-reliance” despite Said’s conscious or unconscious abjuration of this influence, which is clear in Beginnings. For both to meet over their belief in the individual as self-sufficient and a source of truth, the researcher utilizes Harold Bloom’s The Anxiety of Influence (1973) as the main theory. Bloom’s logic will be applied to expose Emerson’s influence on Said as the former’s call for nonconformity speaks directly to the soundness of the latter’s reasoning in Beginnings.

Abstract:
A recurrent myth in the Bible about God “slaying a dragon,” primarily in the Old Testament, provides a test case for using the “study of Scripture as the soul of theology” without depending on historical accuracy or indeed on “salvation history” at all. Freeing us from the dangers of a resurgent focus on history in theological interpretation, this article shows how the dragon-slaying myth speaks powerfully to theodicy and the problem of evil.

This is a case of successful treatment of secondary hypertension with catheter intervention in a 62 years old gentleman who has severe aortoiliac occlusive disease, severe coronary artery disease and other comorbidities. Early recognition, diagnosis and treatment of secondary causes of hypertension lead to good clinical outcomes, possible reversal of end-organ damage and better blood pressure control. Blood pressure control is essential prior to coronary intervention in patients with resistant hypertension and concomitant coronary artery disease to prevent haemorrhagic stroke and other unwanted complications. This gentleman has triple vessels and left main stem disease which surgeons refused for coronary artery by pass graft (CABG) in view patient has severe aorto-iliac occlusive disease with resistant hypertension.

Abstract:
In this article, we describe and analyse the Swiss legislation relating to animal dignity. We conclude that previous criticisms of the law do not go far enough: far from protecting animal dignity, the Swiss law not only undermines such dignity but itself serves as a means to ensure that animals can be used merely as a means, and not treated with respect. As such, the Swiss Animal Welfare Act is deeply unethical and undermines the constitutional requirement to treat animals with dignity.

Abstract:
The National Museum of Rome has an important collection of Mithraic sculptures found in the years 1973–1975 during the archaeological excavation under the early Christian basilica of Santo Stefano Rotondo on the Caelian hill in Rome. The sculptures excavated from this Mithraeum show many traces of gilding and polychromy, whose best example is the great bas-relief with Mithras slaying the bull discussed in this work. The analysis was conducted during a scientific campaign in the museum with portable instrumentation of the Institute for Conservation and Valorisation of Cultural Heritage, ICVBC mobile laboratory following a completely non-invasive approach. By means of a protocol based on the use of multispectral imaging, microscopy, X-ray fluorescence (XRF) and fiber optic reflectance spectroscopy (FORS), this study allowed to better understand the technique used and to make comparisons with other representations of Mithras slaying the bull.
