This article explores how Scholastic notions of the body, mind and cognition inform the didactic principles structuring the Opera nova (1536) by Achille Marozzo (1484-1553).A Bolognese fencing master, Marozzo belonged to a tradition of institutionalized martial training which had historically emphasized its connections to academic discourses of lea
Athletic Races Represent Complex Systems, and Pacing Behavior Should Be Viewed as an Emergent Phenomenon
Pacing is the manner in which effort is distributed over the duration of an exercise bout, and is an important determinant of the extent to which individual potential is realized during athletic races.Observed pacing behaviors are thought to result from complex decision-making processes, and several models have been proposed that may explain the ma
Recidivism and rehabilitation of criminal offenders: a carrot and stick evolutionary game.
Motivated by recent efforts by the criminal justice system to treat and rehabilitate nonviolent offenders rather than focusing solely on their punishment, we introduce an evolutionary game theoretic model to study the effects of "carrot and stick" intervention programs on criminal recidivism.We use stochastic simulations to study the evolution of a
Benzothiazolylhydrazone-Based Turn-on Fluorescent Probe for Detecting Cu2+: S-donor as a Cu2+-induced Fluorescence Quenching Inhibitor
The fluorescent turn-on detection of metal ions is highly desirable for public health and environmental security.Herein, we report a rationally designed fluorescent probe (1) for the detection a&d ej-123 of Cu2+ synthesized by integrating 2-hydrazinylbenzothiazole with 3-acetyl-7-hydroxycoumarin.The probe alone is non-fluorescent due to the isomeri
Spatial and Temporal Variations in the Occurrence and Foraging Activity of Coastal Dolphins in Menai Bay, Zanzibar, Tanzania.
Understanding temporal patterns in distribution, occurrence and behaviour is vital for the effective conservation of cetaceans.This study used cetacean click detectors (C-PODs) to investigate spatial and temporal variation in occurrence and foraging activity of the Indo-Pacific bottlenose (Tursiops aduncus) and Indian Ocean humpback (Sousa plumbea)
