1. Tondl, Gabriele; What determined the uneven growth of Europe's southern regions?: (in English) Since 1975, the extent of catching-up has been very different across Southern regions. Starting from the common arguments of growth theory, the paper wishes to show whether differences in regional income and growth can be attributed to different endowment in human capital, differences in private or public investment level, to structural imbalances, and labour force participation. The investigated panel consists of regional time series for the period 1975 to 1994 and includes NUTS II level regions of Greece, Spain, and the Italian South. Estimation of the impact of the variables on regional income is effected in a dynamic panel data model applying a GMM estimation procedure. The results indicate that the income level of Southern EU regions is largely determined by employment/educational levels and past public investment, while the impact of private investment is not significant. One may follow that EU regional policies should predominately focus on the human factor. Assistance to member countries to upgrade public infra-structures may be continued, but private investment incentives should be curbed.

1. Tatsioni, Athina, Charchanti, Antonia, Kitsiou, Evangelia, Ioannidis, John PA; Appendicectomies in Albanians in Greece: outcomes in a highly mobile immigrant patient population: (in English) AbstractBackgroundAlbanian immigrants in Greece comprise a highly mobile population with unknown health care profile. We aimed to assess whether these immigrants were more or less likely to undergo laparotomy for suspected appendicitis with negative findings (negative appendicectomy), by performing a controlled study with individual (1:4) matching. We used data from 6 hospitals in the Greek prefecture of Epirus that is bordering Albania.ResultsAmong a total of 2027 non-incidental appendicectomies for suspected appendicitis performed in 1994-1999, 30 patients with Albanian names were matched (for age, sex, time of operation and hospital) to 120 patients with Greek names. The odds for a negative appendicectomy were 3.4-fold higher (95% confidence interval [CI], 1.24-9.31, p = 0.02) in Albanian immigrants than in matched Greek-name subjects. The difference was most prominent in men (odds ratio 20.0, 95% CI, 1.41-285, p = 0.02) while it was not formally significant in women (odds ratio 1.56, 95% CI, 0.44-5.48). The odds for perforation were 1.25-fold higher in Albanian-name immigrants than in Greek-name patients (95% CI 0.44- 3.57).ConclusionsAlbanian immigrants in Greece are at high risk for negative appendicectomies. Socioeconomic, cultural and language parameters underlying health care inequalities in highly mobile immigrant populations need better study. [Text] [View with Perseus links] (0.69)

2. Stella Argyriadou, Ioannis Vlachonikolis, Haritini Melisopoulou, Kostas Katachanakis, Christos Lionis; In what extent anemia coexists with cognitive impairment in elderly: a cross-sectional study in Greece: (in English) AbstractBackgroundA project aimed at studying the frequency of dementia and depression in the catchment area of the Health Centre of Chrissoupolis (HCCh), Northern Greece, was carried out. This paper reports the association between AD and anemia among the elderly participants in this Greek study.MethodsEligible participants were people 65 years or over who were (a) living in the Elderly People's Home (all 48 subjects included); (b) visiting the Open Center for Elderly People during a 20 workday period (75 subjects) and (c) visiting the HCCh for routine medical care. The Mini Mental State Examination (MMSE) was used in assessing the cognitive capacity of the participants. Blood was drawn for serum hematocrit, vitamin B12 and folate determination.ResultsThe prevalence proportions of possible cognitive impairment among anemic and non-anemic males were 55.6% and 34.4%, respectively (X2 = 5.8, d.f. = 1, p = 0.016). The corresponding proportions in females were 47.5% and 40.1 % (X2 = 1.1, d.f. = 1, p = 0.305). Using logistic regression analysis, age-group (≥ 80 yrs), type of Institute, vitamin B12 and anemia had significant independent associations with possible cognitive impairment.ConclusionsAnemia is a frequent finding in elderly and it may be a risk factor for dementia, but the extent of the associated deterioration of cognitive impairment or the relation with AD is not known. GPs should be aware of this coexistence and recommend for screening, assaying and treating elderly people. [Text] [View with Perseus links] (0.46)

3. ... ; Weather conditions and Bell's palsy: five-year study and review of the literature: (in English) AbstractBackgroundClimatic or meteorological condition changes have been implicated in the pathogenesis of Bell's palsy (BP). We evaluate the influence of meteorological parameters, such as temperature, humidity, and atmospheric pressure, and their variation and covariation on the incidence of BP and present a review of the literature on the effect of meteorological conditions on facial nerve function.MethodsA total of 171 cases of BP admitted to our Department over a five-year period were studied. The meteorological database included daily values of 13 distinct parameters recorded at the meteorological station of the University of Ioannina during this period. A relationship between each meteorological variable and the incidence of BP was investigated by applying (Χ2) test on data from 13 contingency tables. In addition, the influence of different weather types on the incidence of BP was also investigated. For this purpose Cluster Analysis was used to create eight clusters (weather types) for the Ioannina prefecture and (Χ2) test was applied on the contingency tables consisting of the days of BP cases for each cluster.ResultsNo significant correlation was found either between BP and each distinct meteorological parameter or between BP and any specific weather.ConclusionsMeteorological conditions, such as those dominating in the Northwestern Greece, and/or their changes have little effect on the incidence of BP. Multicenter studies taking into account atmospheric pollution, and climatic differences between countries, are necessary to scrutinize the environmental effects on facial nerve function.

1. Brodsky, Emily Elizabeth; Studies in Fluid Dynamics as Applied to Seismology and Volcanology: Michael Gurnis, Donald L. Anderson, Edward Stolper, Hiroo Kanamori; (in English) This thesis addresses three problems in seismology and volcanology by applying fluid dynamical theories that have been developed for engineering applications. Fault zones are proposed to operate analogously to journal bearings. A quantitative assessment of the physical regimes in which faults behave as lubricated systems is made using elastohydrodynamic theory. Elastohydrodynamic lubrication with typical parameters explains the following observable phenomenon: (1) a reduction in the frictional stress by 50% during large earthquakes, (2) a decrease in high-frequency (>1 Hz) radiation above a critical slip distance of a few meters and (3) a two orders of magnitude variation in scaled radiated energy between small (Mw<4) and large earthquakes (Mw>6). Regionally triggered seismicity often occurs in geothermal areas. It is documented here that the 1999 Mw=7.4 Izmit, Turkey, earthquake was followed by widespread seismicity in Greece over a study region extending from 400 km to nearly 1000 km away from the epicenter. The increase in cataloged earthquakes is statistically significant at the 95% level. A related phenomenon is the regional triggering of volcanic eruptions. A model for triggering eruptions based on rectified diffusion is formulated and evaluated. The excess pressure from rectified diffusion in a typical basaltic system following a regional M>=8 earthquake is between 0.001 and 0.02 MPa. Strong constraints on the porosity, size of the bubbly region, velocity structure and permeability must be imposed for rectified diffusion to be effective. A fluid dynamical model based on supersonic nozzle flow is used to link observed seismic waves with the mass discharge rate of an explosive volcanic eruption. The method is tested by calculating the vertical mass discharge rate from Mount St. Helens for the beginning of the May 18, 1980 eruption. The observed seismic sources are modeled as thrusts due to a combination of the momentum flux of the erupted products and the pressure of the eruptive jet. The momentum discharge rate is converted to a mass discharge rate. The calculated mass ejected in the first 100 s is 1.6x10^{11}-4.6x10^{11} kg. Since the total blast deposit is ~3.2x10^{11}-4.1x10^{11} kg, one interpretation is that the directed blast had a significant (>=40%) vertical component. [Text] [View with Perseus links] (0.37)

1. Pallier, Christophe; Phonemes and Syllables in Speech Perception: size of the attentional focus in French.: A study by Pitt and Samuel (1990) found that English speakers could narrowly focus attention onto a precise phonemic position inside spoken words [1]. This led the authors to argue that the phoneme, rather than the syllable, is the primary unit of speech perception. Other evidence, obtained with a syllable detection paradigm, has been put forward to propose that the syllable is the unit of perception; yet, these experiments were ran with French speakers [2]. In the present study, we adapted Pitt & Samuel's phoneme detection experiment to French and found that French subjects behave exactly like English subjects: they too can focus attention on a precise phoneme. To explain both this result and the established sensitivity to the syllabic structure, we propose that the perceptual system automatically parses the speech signal into a syllabically-structured phonological representation.

2. Skoyles, John R.; Vowels of civilization: Language makes us human, writing makes us civilized, did the Greek alphabet make us modern? Here I argue that the Greek alphabet is unique both in terms of the psychological processes underlying how it is read and its impact in the ancient world upon culture. Other ancient writing systems were read lexically rather than phonologically (a fact known from research upon their modern equivalents). Phonological reading parasites a reader's speech skills enabling readers once they have acquired their 'letters' to read with a vocabulary as large as their spoken one. Lexical reading vocabulary is only acquired slowly and partially. This suggests reading would be different in Greece and it was -- elsewhere reading was a high status activity; in Greece it as a task delegated down to slaves. Because everyone -- if they wished -- could read power did not link to the literates elites -- as found elsewhere. This allowed the rise of a culture in which tradition authority was freely criticised. The result was such culture innovations as democracy and axiomatic mathematics.

3. Pallier, Christophe, Cutler, Anne, Sebastian-Galles, Nuria; Prosodic structure and phonetic processing: A cross-linguistic study: Dutch and Spanish differ in how predictable the stress pattern is as a function of the segmental content: it is correlated with syllable weight in Dutch but not in Spanish. In the present study, two experiments were run to compare the abilities of Dutch and Spanish speakers to separately process segmental and stress information. It was predicted that the Spanish speakers would have more difficulty focusing on the segments and ignoring the stress pattern than the Dutch speakers. The task was a speeded classification task on CVCV syllables, with blocks of trials in which the stress pattern could vary versus blocks in which it was fixed. First, we found interference due to stress variability in both languages, suggesting that the processing of segmental information cannot be performed independently of stress. Second, the effect was larger for Spanish than for Dutch, suggesting that that the degree of interference from stress variation may be partially mitigated by the predictability of stress placement in the language.

1. Koumparou, Dimitra; The Communal Management of the Radi Forest on Icaria Island, Greece: (in English) "This paper is a part of an ongoing research, and examines the present and past systems of the management of a common property resource, the Radi forest. Icarian forest history is replete with the participatory management of the forest. It reviews the evolution of this common, from ancient years till present. The rights to forest resources belong to no one, but the state controls the forest through the forest service. This is because forests and other natural resources belong to the state as a part of the process of national building. For the state the Radi forest is an open-access resource, for the community near the forest the forest is 'its-own resource' according to its history. This long-standing history serves as an illuminative case of how common property resources work and achieve sustainability. This survey tries to identify the ways in which the history and the experience of these villagers serve as the base for the establishment of the resilience between community, forest service, and state."

2. Frangoudes, Katia; An Institutional Analysis of the Integrated Coastal Zone Management in France: (in English) Summary "This paper is based on the findings of the European Union funded research programme COASTMAN comparing the conditions of emergence of Integrated Coastal Zone Management policy in three European countries (Norway, France and Greece). The particular case of the preparation and implementation of the French Littoral Law (1986) will be presented. It is an original attempt to legally frame the contradiction between economic development and nature conservation objectives in coastal areas. An association of a vague definitions of concepts and a rigid regulatory approach has not produced the expected outcome of what is viewed in Europe as the most ambitious legal tool to ensure a balanced development of coastal zone under strong anthropic pressure. Although many stakeholders are generally concerned in designing local term collective objectives of development and conservation, the law has given an overwhelming role to State institution under the motive of the difficulty to coordinate many opposed interests. In the meanwhile, France has undergone a deep process of decentralisation increasing the responsibility of locally elected bodies. This contradiction explains a large part of the globally negative appraisal of the implementation of the law while the need for is recognised by all." [Text] [View with Perseus links] (0.30)

1. W. McNeil Lowry Papers 1941-93: Born in Columbus, Kansas, Wilson McNeil Lowry (1913-93) was a leader in planning and administering philanthropic support for the arts and humanities in the 1960s and early 1970s. Following brief periods as University of Illinois English instructor, Navy lieutenant, and journalist, Lowry (B. A. 1934, Illinois; Ph. D. 1941, Illinois) was hired by the Ford Foundation in 1953 to direct its education program. In this capacity, Lowry developed the Ford Foundation's program in the arts and humanities, and became its first director when it was formally established in 1957. Through this and related senior posts at the Ford Foundation, he directed the distribution of over $320 million to performing arts organizations, artistic institutions, and individual artists and $60 million to humanities scholarship. After his 1975 retirement, Lowry, continued to serve the arts as a pro bono consultant in the arts, president of the San Francisco Ballet (1988-91), and as an advocate of public support for the arts until his death., Scope and Contents of the Collection: Papers of W. McNeil Lowry (1913-93), A.B. 1934, Ph.D. 1941, including correspondence, memoranda, reports, press releases, publications, manuscripts, notes, oral histories, clippings, appointment books, audiotapes and videotapes concerning his work as a journalist (1946-52); his work for the Ford Foundation as assistant to William McPeak and Program Director of Education (1953-57), as Vice President of the Office of Policy and Planning (1964-66), as Acting President (1965-66), and as head of the humanities and arts program (1957-75), including material on travel (1953-73); the Tax Reform Act of 1969; and support of the theatre including the Alley Theatre (Houston) and the Arena Stage (Washington, D.C.); of music, including the National Music Council composer in residence project (1958-62), the Recording/Publication Program (1969-75), and the Symphony Orchestra Program (1965-74); of dance; of lithography, including the Tamarind Institute; of humanistic scholarship; of creative writing; of translations; of film; of television; of the visual arts; of the arts and humanities in Greece; of the Travel and Study Program; of an economic survey of non-profit performing arts organizations (1970-73); and of the Lincoln Center for the Performing Arts (1956-63). The papers cover Lowry's work as arts consultant and advocate (1975-93), including his organizing of conferences of the American Assembly (1977-84) and of Symposia on the arts (1977-82); and his presidency of the Board of the San Francisco Ballet (1989-91). The collection includes chapters in manuscript of an unfinished book on the arts since World War II (1975-77), and interviews with George Balanchine (1979-80) and Lincoln Kirsten (1983-84) for New Yorker articles. Significant correspondents include Fred C. Cole, Ruby d'Arschot, Milton S. Eisenhower, Zelda Fiehandler, Theodore Hoffman, Hubert H. Humphrey, Lincoln Kirsten, Whitney J. Oates, James Reston, Urs Schwarz, James H. Semans, Charles Shattuck, Peter Smith, Frank Thompson, Nina Vance, and June Wayne., Arrangement: By type of material and alphabetically or chronologically thereunder [Collection] (22.35)

1. Hunsinger, Jeremy W.; Disciplinary Themes in Aristotle's Political and Ethical Writings: David Barzilai, Mark Gifford, Timothy Luke; (in English) This thesis is an exploratory study of the relationship between Foucault's conception of disciplinary power and the philosophical ideas of ancient Greece as exemplified by Aristotle. Foucault claims that disciplinary power arose only in the 17th and 18th centuries. This thesis demonstrates that there are similarities and parallels between certain facets of Aristotle's ethical and political theory and Foucault's idea of disciplinary power--parallels and similarities sufficiently strong to weaken, if not contradict, Foucault's description of the historical origin of disciplinary power.

1. Frink, A., Korner, J. G., Tausk, J. B.; Massive Two-Loop Integrals and Higgs Physics: We describe in some detail the present features of an automatic loop calculation program as well as the integration techniques that go into it. The program, called XLOOPS 1.0, allows one to calculate massive one- and two-loop Feynman diagrams in the Standard Model including their tensor structure. UV divergences in UV divergent integrals are explicitly computed in dimensional regularization. One-loop integrals are calculated analytically in d \neq 4 dimensions whereas two-loop integrals are reduced to two-fold integral representations which the program evaluates numerically. We discuss Higgs decay at the two-loop level as a first application of the novel integration techniques that are incorporated into XLOOPS., Comment: Latex, 26 pages, 18 postscript figures included with epsfig, uses a4wide.sty.

2. Dugne, J. -J., Fredriksson, S., Hansson, J., Predazzi, E.; Higgs Pain? Take a Preon!: The Higgs mechanism is the favourite cure for the main problem with electroweak unification, namely how to reconcile a gauge theory with the need for massive gauge bosons. This problem does not exist in preon models for quark and lepton substructure with composite $Z^0$ and $W$s, which, consequently, also avoid all other theoretical complications and paradoxes with the Higgs mechanism. We present a new, minimal preon model, which explains the family structure, and predicts several new, heavy quarks, leptons and vector bosons. Our preons obey a phenomenological supersymmetry, but without so-called squarks and sleptons, since this SUSY is effective only on the composite scale., Comment: The preon contents of some quarks and leptons have been changed in order to achieve a more consistent scheme. A few new comments have been added. 13 pages, LaTeX, no figures.

3. Gonzalez-Mestres, Luis; Lorentz Symmetry Violation and Very High-Energy Cross Sections: We discuss the implications of a recently proposed pattern of Lorentz symmetry violation on very high-energy cross sections. As a consequence of the breaking of local Lorentz invariance by the introduction of a fundamental length, $a$ , the kinematics is modified and the properties of final states are fundamentally different in collider-like (two incoming particles with equal, opposite momenta with respect to the vacuum rest frame) and fixed-target (one of the incoming particles at rest with respect to the vacuum rest frame) situations. In the first case, the properties of the allowed final states are similar to relativistic kinematics, as long as the relevant wave vectors are much smaller than the critical wave vector scale $a^{-1}$ . But, if one of the incoming particles is close to rest in the vacuum rest frame, energy conservation reduces the final-state phase space at very high energy and can lead to a sharp fall of cross sections starting at incoming-particle wave vectors well below the inverse of the fundamental length. Then, the Froissart bound may cease to be relevant, as total cross sections seem to become much smaller than it would be allowed by local, Lorentz-invariant, field theory. Important experimental implications of the new scenario are found for cosmic-ray astrophysics and for very high-energy cosmic rays reaching the earth., Comment: 6 pages, LaTex , contribution to the International Conference on Relativistic Physics and some of its Applications, Athens (Greece) 25-28 June 1997 [Text] [View with Perseus links] (0.66)
