Description:
The role of nitric oxide (?NO) as a regulatory diffusible molecule in the brain requires the evaluation of its concentration dynamics. In this work, we have developed microelectrodes suitable for real time electrochemical measurements of ?NO in vitro. Nafion and o-phenylenediamine were used to modify the surface of carbon fiber microelectrodes (8@mm diameter; ~100@mm tip length). Coating with Nafion was done at 170^oC and the o-phenylenediamine solution was electropolimerized on the carbon surface. ?NO peak potential (+0.78+/-0.03V versus Ag/AgCl) was determined by square wave voltammetry with ?NO solutions prepared from the-generating compound diethylenetriamine/nitric oxide (DETA/NO). Microelectrodes were calibrated by amperometry at a potential of +0.90V versus Ag/AgCl. They showed good sensitivity (954+/-217pA/@mM; n=6) and linearity to ?NO in the concentration range of 100-1000nM. They were also characterized in terms of detection limit (6+/-2nM, n=4), response time at 50% (1s), and selectivity against interferents, such as nitrite (780+/-84:1, n=6), ascorbic acid (750+/-187:1, n=6) or dopamine (18+/-2:1, n=6). Injections of 1mM l-glutamate, 1mM l-arginine, and 0.1mM N-methyl-d-aspartate did not produce changes in background current. Finally, the microelectrodes were used to measure ?NO concentration dynamics in rat hippocampal brain slices stimulated with l-glutamate and N-methyl-d-aspartate. Taken together, the data indicate that the microelectrodes exhibit the proper sensitivity and selectivity for studies of ?NO dynamics in brain slices (in vitro) and possibly in whole brain (in vivo) recordings.

Book Description
This book seeks to explore seismic phenomena in elastic media and emphasizes the interdependence of mathematical formulation and physical meaning. The purpose of this title - which is intended for senior undergraduate and graduate students as well as scientists interested in quantitative seismology - is to use aspects of continuum mechanics, wave theory and ray theory to describe phenomena resulting from the propagation of waves.
The book is divided into three parts: Elastic continua, Waves and rays, and Variational formulation of rays. In Part I, continuum mechanics are used to describe the material through which seismic waves propagate, and to formulate a system of equations to study the behaviour of such material. In Part II, these equations are used to identify the types of body waves propagating in elastic continua as well as to express their velocities and displacements in terms of the properties of these continua. To solve the equations of motion in anisotropic inhomogeneous continua, the high-frequency approximation is used and establishes the concept of a ray. In Part III, it is shown that in elastic continua a ray is tantamount to a trajectory along which a seismic signal propagates in accordance with the variational principle of stationary travel time.

Book Description
Plasma physics may hold the key to a virtually inexhaustible future energy source through the control of thermonuclear reactions. The complexity of plasma physics makes it a difficult subject to write about in popular terms, but the authors of The Fourth State of Matter: An Introduction to Plasma Science, Second Edition treat plasma in a comprehensible way. Combining factual substance with an easy-to-read and lucid presentation, the book describes the characteristics of plasma, its distribution in the universe, and how it is used by man. It explores plasma in industry and presents current and possible future applications. The book also details the history of plasma research and plasma technology. Retained from the first edition, rhyming verses add fun to the explanation of what can be complicated scientific concepts. Accessible to anyone interested in plasma physics, this non-mathematical book is an excellent addition to a well-rounded science collection.

Book Description
Southern belle BeBe Loudermilk loses all her worldly possessions thanks to a brief but disastrous relationship with the gorgeous Reddy, an "investment counselor" who turns out to be a con man. All that's left is a ramshackle 1950s motor court on Tybee Island–an eccentric beach town that calls itself a drinking village with a fishing problem.
Breeze Inn is a place where the very classy BeBe wouldn't normally be caught dead but, with no alternative, she moves into the manager's unit, vowing to make magic out of mud. The work is grueling, especially dealing with the cantankerous caretaker, a fishing captain named Harry who's trying to earn enough dough to get his boat out of hock. With the help of Harry and BeBe's junking friend Weezie, she soon has the motel spiffed up and attracting paying guests.
Then there's a sighting of Reddy in Fort Lauderdale, and BeBe decides to go after him. She puts together a posse, and with the irrepressible Granddaddy Loudermilk snoring in the backseat of the Buick, heads south. The plan is to carry out a sting that may be just a little bit outside the law but that, with any luck at all, will retrieve BeBe's fortune and put the dastardly Reddy in jail where he belongs. And maybe Harry, who's looking more hunky every day, will finally get his boat back.

great beach read.......2007-09-01
once again she entertains with light reading and a good story. hissy fit is still my favorite but enjoyed this one almost as much great to take to the beach or for a reading group.
The Perfect Read For A Weekend!!.......2007-08-06
If your looking for a fun, light, book filled with humor this is definately the book to read. I loved this book so much!! The only reason I couldn't give it 5 stars because it didn't have AS much romance in it as I usually like in a book. This book was perfect for a rainy weekend, curled up on the couch or in your bed with the covers wrapped around you. I am so looking forward to reading ALL of her other books!!
a fun read.......2007-07-18
I thought this book was fun to read. There were many interesting characters and you really cared what happened to them.
AWESOME...YOU WONT PUT IT DOWN.......2007-07-16
Great Book. I love ALL of the Mary kay Andrews books. You won't put them down!
AWESOME READ!!!!!.......2007-06-29
This book has the perfect mix of beach, mystery, humor and the South. I loved it!!!!
