然而我的目的远不止限于救治那些公开宣称的乞丐的孩子,我所说的范围要大得多,包括所有那些在某个年代出生,其父母与那些在街上要求我们大发慈悲的乞丐一样,无力养活他们的幼儿。
As to my own part, having turned my thoughts for many years upon this important subject, and maturely weighed the several schemes of other projectors, I have always found them grossly mistaken in the computation. It is true, a child just dropped from its dam may be supported by her milk for a solar year, with little other nourishment; at most not above the value of 2s., which the mother may certainly get, or the value in scraps, by her lawful occupation of begging; and it is exactly at one year old that I propose to provide for them in such a manner as instead of being a charge upon their parents or the parish, or wanting food and raiment for the rest of their lives, they shall on the contrary contribute to the feeding, and partly to the clothing, of many thousands.

Unite 3 Doctor’s Dilemma: Treat or Let Die?Abigail Trafford1. Medical advances in wonder drugs, daring surgical procedures, radiation therapies, and intensive-care units have brought new life to thousands of people. Yet to many of them, modern medicine has become a double-edged sword.2. Doctor’s power to treat with an array of space-age techniques has outstripped the body’s capacity to heal. More medical problems can be treated, but for many patients, there is little hope of recovery. Even the fundamental distinction between life and death has been blurred.3. Many Americans are caught in medical limbo, as was the South Korean boxer Duk Koo Kim, who was kept alive by artificial means after he had been knocked unconscious in a fight and his brain ceased to function. With the permission of his family, doctors in Las Vegas disconnected the life-support machines and death quickly followed.4. In the wake of technology’s advances in medicine, a heated debate is taking place in hospitals and nursing homes across the country --- over whether survival or quality of life is the paramount goal of medicine.5. “It gets down to what medicine is all about, ” says Daniel Callahan, director of the Institute of Society, Ethics, and the Life Sciences in Hastings-on-Hudson, New York. “Is it really to save a life? Or is the larger goal the welfare of the patient?”6. Doctors, patients, relatives, and often the courts are being forced to make hard choices in medicine. Most often it is at the two extremes of life that these difficultyethical questions arise --- at the beginning for the very sick newborn and at the end for the dying patient.7. The dilemma posed by modern medical technology has created the growing new discipline or bioethics. Many of the country’s 127 medical s chools now offer courses in medical ethics, a field virtually ignored only a decade ago. Many hospitals have chaplains, philosophers, psychiatrists, and social workers on the staff to help patients make crucial decisions, and one in twenty institutions has a special ethics committee to resolve difficult cases.Death and Dying8. Of all the patients in intensive-care units who are at risk of dying, some 20 percent present difficult ethical choices --- whether to keep trying to save the life or to pull back and let the patient die. In many units, decisions regarding life-sustaining care are made about three times a week.9. Even the definition of death has been changed. Now that the heart-lung machine can take over the functions of breathing and pumping blood, death no longer always comes with the patient’s “last gasp” or when the heart stops beating. Thirty-one states and the District of Columbia have passed brain-death statutes that identify death as when the whole brain ceases to function.10. More than a do zen states recognize “living wills” in which the patients leave instructions to doctors not to prolong life by feeding them intravenously or by other methods if their illness becomes hopeless. A survey of California doctors showed that 20 to 30 percent were following instructions of such wills. Meanwhile, the hospicemovement, which its emphasis on providing comfort --- not cure --- to the dying patient, has gained momentum in many areas.11. Despite progress in society’s understanding of death and dying, t heory issues remain. Example: A woman, 87, afflicted by the nervous-system disorder of Parkinson’s disease, has a massive stroke and is found unconscious by her family. Their choices are to put her in a nursing home until she dies or to send her to a medical center for diagnosis and possible treatment. The family opts for a teaching hospital in New York city. Tests show the woman’s stroke resulted from a blood clot that is curable with surgery. After the operation, she says to her family: “Why did you bring me back to this agony?” Her health continues to worsen, and two years later she dies.12. On the other hand, doctors say prognosis is often uncertain and that patients, just because they are old and disabled, should not be denied life-saving therapy. Ethicists also fear that under the guise of medical decision not to treat certain patients, death may become too easy, pushing the country toward the acceptance of euthanasia.13. For some people, the agony of watching high-technology dying is too great. Earlier this year, Woodrow Wilson Collums, a retired dairyman from Poteet, Texas, was put on probation for the mercy killing of his older brother Jim, who lay hopeless in his bed at a nursing home, a victim of severe senility resul ting from Alzheimer’s disease. After the killing, the victim’s widow said: “I think God, Jim’s out of his misery. I hate to think it had to be done the way it was done, but I understand it. ”Crisis in Newborn Care14. At the other end of the life span, technology has so revolutionized newborn carethat it is no longer clear when human life is viable outside the womb. Newborn care has got huge progress, so it is absolutely clear that human being can survive independently outside the womb. Twenty-five years ago, infants weighting less than three and one-half pounds rarely survived. The current survival rate is 70 percent, and doctors are “salvaging” some babies that weigh only one and one-half pounds. Tremendous progress has been made in treating birth deformities such as spina bifida. Just ten years ago, only 5 percent of infants with transposition of the great arteries --- the congenital heart defect most commonly found in newborns --- survived. Today, 50 percent live.15. Yet, for many infants who owe their lives to new medical advances, survival has come at a price. A significant number emerge with permanent physical and mental handicaps.16. “The question of treatment and nontreatment of seriously ill newborns is not a single one,”says Thomas Murray of the Hastings Center. “But I feel strongly that retardation or the fact that someone is going to be less than perfect is not good grounds for allowing an infant to die.”17. For many parents, however, the experience of having a sick newborn becomes a lingering nightmare. Two years ago, an Atlanta mother gave birth to a baby suffering from Down’s Syndrome, a form of mental retardation; the child also had blocked intestines. The doctors rejected the parents’ plea not to operate, and today the child, severely retarded, still suffers intestinal problems.18. “Every time Melanie has a bowel movement, she cries,” explains her mother.“She’s not able to take care of herself, and we won’t live forever. I wanted to save her from sorrow, pain, and suffering. I don’t understand the emphasis on life at all costs, and I’m very angry at the doctors and the hospital. Who will take care of Melanie after we’re gone? Where will you doctors be then?”Changing Standards19. The choices posed by modern technology have profoundly changed the practice of medicine. Until now, most doctors have been activists, trained to use all the tools in their medical arsenals to treat disease. The current trend is toward nontreatment as doctors grapple with questions not just of who should get care but when to take therapy away.20. Always in the background is the threat of legal action. In August, two California doctors were charged with murdering a comatose patient by allegedly disconnecting the respirator and cutting off food and water. In 1981, a Massachusetts nurse was charged with murdering a cancer patient with massive doses of morphine but was subsequently acquitted.21. Between lawsuits, government regulations, and patients’ rights, many doctors feel they are under siege. Modern technology actually has limited their ability to make choices. More recently, these actions are resolved by committees.Public Policy22. In recent years, the debate on medical ethics has moved to the level of national policy. “It’s just beginning to hit us that we don’t have unlimited resources,” says Washington Hospital Center’s Dr. Lynch. “You can’t talk about ethics without talkingethics without talking about money.”23. Since 1972. Americans have enjoyed unlimited access to a taxpayer-supported, kidney dialysis program that offers life-prolonging therapy to all patients with kidney failure. To a number of police analysts, the program has grown out of control --- to a $1.4billion operation supporting 61,000 patients. The majority are over 50, and about a quarter have other illness, such as cancer or heart disease, conditions that could exclude them from dialysis in other countries.24. Some hospitals are pulling back from certain lifesaving treatment. Massachusetts General Hospital, for example, has decided not perform heart transplants on the ground that the high costs of providing such surgery help too few patients. Burn units --- through extremely effective --- also provide very expensive therapy for very few patients.25. As medical scientists push back the frontiers of therapy, the moral dilemma will continue to grow for doctors and patients alike, making the choice of to treat the basic question in modern medicine.1. 在特效药、风险性手术进程、放疗法以及特护病房方面的医学进展已为数千人带来新生。

Summary-It is suggested that the economics of present largescale scientific computers could benefit from a greater investment in hardware to mechanize multiplication and division than is now common. As a move in this direction, a design is developed for a multiplier which generates the product of two numbers using purely combinational logic, i.e., in one gating step. Using straightforward diode-transistor logic, it appears presently possible to obtain products in under 1 ,sec, and quotients in 3 1sec. A rapid square-root process is also outlined. Approximate component counts are given for the proposed design, and it is found that the cost of the unit would be about 10 per cent of the cost of a modern large-scale computer.

BY-NC-ND license(/licenses/by-nc-nd/4.0/).1.IntroductionAt present,predicting the onset of turbulence,even for pipe flow,requires sophisticated instrumentation and/or direct numer-ical simulation (DNS)[1–4],based on observations of the detailed instantaneous flow structure formation and evolution.However,all of this modern research is conducted around the classical criti-cal Reynolds number (Re c ).Osborne Reynolds (1842–1912)carried out thorough laboratory investigations on the behavior of Newto-nian fluids [5,6].His most remarkable discovery was the identifica-tion of the two modes of flow phenomena:laminar flow and turbulent flow [5–7].The experimental methodology and theory proposed by Reynolds to investigate the transition from one type of flow to another have inspired numerous researchers over gener-ations.The transition between these two types of flow is marked by a dimensionless parameter attributed to Reynolds—that is,the Reynolds number (Re ):Re ¼q Ud lð1Þwhere q is the fluid density (kg Ám À3),l is the fluid viscosity (Pa Ás),U is a characteristic velocity (m Ás À1),and d is a characteristic dimen-sion of the object with which the fluid is in contact (m).In a pipe,d is the inner pipe diameter;however,if the fluid flows around the pipe outside (cross-flow),d becomes the outer diameter.This number has often been said to represent the ratio of the inertia forces to the viscous forces.As the most important parameter,the Re ,together with other fluid-related dimensionless parameters,provides a powerful foundation for many friction,heat,and mass-transfer correlations in fluid flow-related problems.These are par-ticularly useful in designing process equipment and process opti-mizations [7].While appreciating the experiments carried out by Reynolds,it is notable that the diameter of the pipe was limited;hence,a large Re might be obtained mainly by changing the fluid viscosity and/or increasing the fluid velocity.Flow visualization took place in the central region of the pipe (the ink fluid was injected at the center location),so it would have been the result of the integrated or cumulative effect of turbulence generation along the pipe wall,transport,and dissipation.These three aspects would have been intertwined in the visualization in the experi-ments,and the Re should be viewed as a global parameter.In 1952,measurements in the proximity of the pipe wall showed aE-mail address:xdchen@very significant result:that using the friction velocity(u r)and the product of the kinematic viscosity and the friction velocity(vu r) to scale velocity and distance,respectively,away from the wall,a unique dimensionless velocity profile in the near-wall region was obtained.As calculated,based on the measurements,the rate of tur-bulence generation reaches a sharp maximum at the sub-layer thickness(y+%11.5,where y+is the dimensionless distance from the wall surface defined in the Universal Law of the Wall(ULW)) [8].From a rational perspective,the broad peak as shown may be better qualified as y+%11.5±5.The commonly acknowledged divide between the laminar sub-layer and the buffer layer is marked at y+=5for a fully developed turbulent wall layer[8,9].Micro-transient details of how afluid transitions from being disturbed by localized perturbation into full-blown turbulence in a(long)pipe have only been captured very recently[1,2].Sampling stations for local behaviors have been set up,facilitated by advanced computing power and modern experimental techniques. Experiments have been conducted below and above the well-known Re c for pipeflow—that is,Re c=2300,where the subscript c represents critical.In a small-diameter pipe in a laboratory setting,turbulence that is transient at low Re becomes sustained after a distinct Re c;how-ever,this phenomena was captured locally(unlike the general type of observation originally made by Reynolds)[1,2].The critical point for transiting to sustained turbulence is decided when the local proliferation of puffs outweighs their decay.Experimentally artifi-cial puffs were generated at precision to trigger turbulent behavior. Two timescales were captured(partly established through DNS)for the decay and spreading of the puffs.Plotting the Re dependence of the mean time until a second puff is nucleated and the turbulence fraction increases(declining with increasing Re),and the Re depen-dence of the mean time until the turbulence decays and theflow relaminarizes(increasing with increasing Re),creates a very sharp intersect at Re c=2040±10,marking the onset of laminar-to-sustained turbulence in pipeflow[1].To explain this transition from laminarflow to turbulence,a bi-stability analysis with nonlinear propagation(advection)of turbu-lent fronts has been executed[2].The interesting phenomena of destabilizing turbulence in pipeflow were subsequently studied using the same experimental strategies and DNS[3,4].It is worth noting that most practical problems in thisfield, including airplane design,are simulated with semi-empirical tur-bulent models for turbulent kinetic energy and the Reynolds stres-ses.These models make computation more efficient.Although DNS is seen to be the ultimate way to directly generate images of turbu-lence,our knowledge about turbulence still mostly comes from intuitive prospects,whether reported or taught in classes.In the present work,a dimensionless number is reported that is deduced intuitively from the concept of Re but applied to the local fluidflow.This dimensionless number is the ratio of the inertia effect to viscous effect,and its definition allows for an alternative analysis of the onset of turbulence,which has not previously been seen.Three classical cases influid mechanics are employed to show the effectiveness of the approach:the ULW,flow in a smooth circular pipe,and parallelflow on a smooth plate[9].The analytical velocity profiles of these cases are well known[9–13],allowing derivations to be made to demonstrate the intended arguments precisely.This philosophy is in line with what Churchill[11] reported in his famous American Institute of Chemical Engineers Institute Lecture—that is,elucidating the fundamentals of trans-port phenomena without computationalfluid dynamics.Given this new number,beyond capturing the onset of turbu-lence,the author points to a significant possibility that turbulence (i.e.,turbulent energy)originates from a very narrow domain(s) (defined by c(ratio of local inertia effect to viscous effect)and velocity),leaving the rest of theflowfield for transporting and dissipating turbulent energies.This perspective creates consider-able scope for controlling turbulentflow and provides an idea for future improvements in turbulence-modeling effectiveness on large scales.2.Main analyses2.1.Defining the local ratio of inertia effect to viscous effectTo introduce the new dimensionless number,for simplicity,a semi-infinite Cartesian(x,y)parallelflow scheme,with one side bounded by a smoothflat solid wall(the smooth plate)is consid-ered.Taking u as the local velocity in the x-direction(parallel to the plate),and recognizing that the predominant velocity gradient occurs in the y-direction,the prominent shear stress can be expressed as s¼Àl@u=@y.The no-slip condition is applied at the plate surface;hence,the scaling consideration leads tos%Àlðu chÀ0Þ=D ch.Here,D ch is a characteristic distance corre-sponding to the representative velocity change of interest and u ch is a characteristic velocity,where the subscript ch represents the characteristic value of the system.Taking the above to represent the viscous effects,a new dimensionless number is deduced: c¼q l2=ðl u ch=D chÞ.As D ch?0,the new local dimensionless num-ber can be expressed locally:c¼q u2l@u=@yj jð2ÞIn Eq.(2),the absolute value is employed to avoid any confu-sion.Based on the derivation,it can be seen that this number is conceptually similar to the Re.It is argued that this number holds important physical meaning when interpretingfluid behavior at a finite point(x,y).If c becomes very large,the viscous effect becomes negligible,and thefluid at that point should be able to maintain its pathway without changing direction.If thefluidflow becomes turbulent,the instantaneous velocity u in Eq.(2)may be replaced with the time-averaged local velocity u,according to con-ventional wisdom.An appropriate value of c must be attained in order to produce an eddy or eddies.On the other hand,theflow must be energetic enough to begin with,if turbulence can be sus-tained(i.e.,u must be large).When the two effects are comparable, it should be found that c%1.It is envisaged that for different direc-tions in a generalflow domain,c is directionally dependent.It is further noted that c is in fact different from Re,because when the Re increases over a critical value,turbulence must occur.On the other hand,c can vary from zero to infinity,even for laminar flows.2.2.Conforming c to the ULWFirst,it is found that c conforms to the ULW,thus demonstrat-ing significant physical meaning.For a large Re,the wall-bounded turbulentflows exhibit boundary layers that fall within the dimen-sionless velocity distribution of an approximately universal nature. Many measurements have demonstrated the ULW[7–9].Large-scale(industrial)turbulence modeling often takes advantage of the ULW to create a wall function in order to avoid detailed com-putations near the wall and thereby reduce the computing effort. In the ULW,thefluid boundary layer is divided into three regions: a(pure)viscous sub-layer(also called the wall layer),a buffer layer,and an overlap layer[9].For the viscous sub-layer, 0y+\5and u+=y+,where y+=y/d v.The wall layer thickness (y+=1)is d v=v/u r.The friction velocity u r is defined as u r¼ffiffiffiffiffiffiffiffiffiffiffiffis w=qp,where s w is the time-averaged shear stress at the wall (NÁmÀ2).u+is defined as u+= u=u r.X.D.Chen/Engineering5(2019)576–579577This leads to the following:c ¼yd v2¼y þðÞ2ð3ÞEq.(3)presents a significant finding that,in essence,when y is equal to the wall layer thickness,c =1,the inertia forces are com-parable to the shear forces.It is also interesting to note that y +=5is the conventional divide for the viscous sub-layer and the buffer layer,at which c =25.y +=11.5may also be important,as this is where turbulence production has been reported to peak in the ULW.At this point,it is intuitive to think that there may be a crit-ical c that corresponds to the range marked by the above number moving from laminar to turbulence,provided that the fluid in this location has sufficient energy (or sufficiently high velocity).As mentioned above,in both laminar and turbulent flows,c can vary from zero to infinity.Therefore,it is obvious that a single c value cannot be a sole marker for generating turbulence.2.3.Pipe flowThe strategy,then,is to seek the relationship between c and changing velocity.As shown in Appendix A in the Supplementary data ,c can be obtained as a function of r/R (r is the radial coordi-nate and R is the radius of pipe)first for different Re (s),where Re is defined using the mean velocity u m .Then,via the relationship between u and r in this classic case,c can be further obtained as a function of u/u m .Differentiating this u/u m dependence function against u/u m ,for both the fully developed laminar and the fully developed turbulent regimes,yields a useful characteristic of c varying with velocity.For laminar flow,it is the parabolic velocity profile;for turbulent flow,it is the 1/7th power velocity profile.It can be shown that at point c xx %25(corresponding to y +=5),where the subscript xx indicates that the inertia effects in the x -direction interact with the shear effects applied in the x -direction as well,the crossover of the two derivatives against u/u m yields Re %2083.At this point,u/u m %0.597(see Fig.S1in the Supplementary data ,which demonstrates the obtainment of this result).When the time-averaged velocity profile for turbulence is generalized to be of the 1/N th order,where N is the power of the classic approximation of the time-averaged velocity distribution in turbulence regime (dimensionless),especially with N =11,it can be shown that Re =2005.75is critical (see Appendix A in the Sup-plementary data ).Here,the velocity at c xx =25and u=u m =0.650(see Fig.S2in the Supplementary data ).This analysis indicates that when c xx =25,if the fluid flow at that location has sufficient power,turbulence occurs.2.4.Plate flowIn contrast to the flow in a pipe,the flow parallel to and above a flat plate is at least two-dimensional.It is well known that the solution to a laminar velocity distribution in the plate boundary layer can be obtained accurately through similarity solution proce-dures [9];that is, u=U 1=f (g ),where g is the dimensionless trans-formation variable g ¼y =ffiffiffiffiffiffiffiffiffiffiffiffiffiffiffiffiffiffiffiffiffiq U 1=2l x p and U 1is the velocity of the bulk fluid.The laminar velocity profile can also be expressed in a parabolic format,while the turbulent profile can be expressed approximately as a 1/7th power format when scaled using the boundary layer thickness (see Appendix B in the Supplementarydata ).Once again,d c xx /d( u=U 1)can be obtained for both flow modes,respectively.The crossover is set at Re x ,c =5.5Â105,which is the oft-mentioned Re c for the onset of turbulence in plate flow.It is found that c xx %154.6(y +%12.4)(see Appendix B in the Supple-mentary data ).At this point, u=U 1=0.441.The obtainment of the critical parameter is shown in Fig.S3in the Supplementary data .In fact,the literature tends to suggest a range for the onset Re for turbulence of 105–106.The low estimate,Re x ,c =105,yieldsc xx =89.24(y +=9.45),for which u=U 1=0.487.This result actually aligns well with the critical condition for pipe flow.2.5.Reversing back from turbulence to laminar flowIf the velocity profile is changed while the flow rate is kept the same in a smooth and straight pipe,it is interesting to see whether Re c for the onset of turbulence changes or not.It is possible to pre-fix c to be 25,and then see whether Re c is influenced by altering the velocity profile.It is shown that when the law of 1/7th for turbulence is changed to the 1/20th law for turbulence,where the velocity profile becomes flatter,Re c becomes 2485,in contrast to 2083for the 1/7th law.In other words,it is possible to reverse the already turbulent situation ‘‘back”to the laminar situation if the velocity profile is somehow forced to be flatter in the gap of Re =2485–2083.In general,when N becomes greater than 7,Re c also increases.This result aligns well with the original work reported recently [3].3.Further remarksIt has been successfully shown that the onset of turbulence can be interpreted through the introduction of c ,which is the ratio of local inertia effect to viscous effect.Based on the well-established velocity profiles,it is possible to evaluate the critical transition Re through the relationship of how the local derivative of c against velocity changes with velocity.The sensitive region for flow transi-tion is narrow,based on the analyses given in this work (see Figs.S1–S3in the Supplementary data ;beyond the crossover points,the change in the local derivative of c against velocity (as well as that of c )increases rapidly with increasing velocity,and no further crossover can be found).Increasing c would dam the tur-bulence,even it was already generated.It is probable that only a very thin or narrow geometrical region (i.e.,a line or a shell)is cap-able of sustaining turbulence generation.Upon a further analysis of previous results [1],albeit not elaborated in that study (see Fig.5in Ref.[1]),where the mean time of a puff from the wall before decay-ing or splitting as a function of Re in the pipe is shown,the occur-rence of a very sharp critical phenomena is suggested.A lesser or greater Re than the Re c has a much lower chance of producing sus-tained randomness (Fig.1).A previous work [2](see Fig.3in Ref.[2])also shows that the level of turbulence reflected by the cross-stream velocity fluctuations v 0/U does not actually increasemuchFig.1.Mean lifetime of a puff before decaying (solid line)or splitting (dashed line),plotted using the mean lifetime functions of the Re created previously [1].578X.D.Chen /Engineering 5(2019)576–579with increasing Re,once past the Re c.It is thus highly probable that the source of(strongest)turbulence is located in a narrow region (s);furthermore,if this were true,then the rest of theflowfield would largely be left for the transportation and dissipation of tur-bulence energy.This perspective would have a profound influence on the modeling of turbulence.In future studies,it will be helpful to visualize and compare the c distribution for both laminar and turbulent regimes with the sameflow arrangement and in the same device.Finally,it is emphasized again that despite the vast difference between the Re c found for pipeflow and for plateflow,respectively,the current dimensionless parameters under critical conditions for the two cases are not that different.AcknowledgementsThe author is grateful to his father,Prof.Naixing Chen(1933–2018),who was thefirst to introduce him to thefield offluid mechanics over35years ago;the author had discussed the

Max SchulmanMax Schulman (1919-1988) was a 20th century American writer humorist best known for his television and short story character Dobie Gillis, as well as for best-selling novels.He first delved into the world of writing as a journalist student at the University of Minnesota. Max Schulman?s earliest published writing was for Ski-U-Mah, the college humor magazine of the University of Minnesota, in the 1930s. His writing often focused on young people, particularly in a collegiate setting. He wrote his first novel, Barefoot Boy with Cheek《⽆礼的⾚脚少年》a satire on college life, while still a student. Schulman?s works include the novels Rally Round the Flag, Boys!,《孩⼦们,团结在旗帜的周围吧》which was made into a film starring Paul Newman and Joanne Woodward; The Feather Merchant《⾐冠楚楚的商⼈》,The Zebra Derby, Sleep till Noon, and Potatoes Are Cheaper. He was also a co-writer, with Robert Paul Smith, of the long-running Broadway play, The Tender Trap, which was later adapted into a movie starring Frank Sinatra and Debbie Reynolds.Schulman?s college charater, Dobie Gillis, was the subject of a series of short stories complied under the title The Many Loves of Dobie Gillis, which became the basis for the 1953 movie The Affairs of Dobie Gillis. Shulman also wrote the series? theme song. The same year the series began. Schulman published a Dobie Gillis novel, I was a Teenage Dwarf (1959). After his success with Dobie Gillis, Shulman syndicated a humor column, “On Campus”, to over 350 collegiate newspapers at one point.A later novel, Anyone Got A Match? satirized both the television and tobacco industries, as well as the Soth and college football. His last major project was House Calls, which began as a 1978 movie based on one of his stories; it spun off the 1979-1982 television series of the same name. Schulman was the head writer.Also a screenwriter, Schulman was one of the collaborators on a 1954 non-fiction television program, Light’s Diamond Jubilee, timed to the 75th anniversary of the invention of the lihght bulb.2.

This scheme can obtain arbitrary high-order solutions in both time and space in the unsplit perfect match layer with the same solutions in the computational region,thus reducing the energy of reflectivity from absorbing boundary.Simulation results indicate that the method shows better absorbing effect on incident waves with different angles,and it is suitable for the material with high Poisson's ratio.%任意高阶间断有限元法常用的吸收边界条件存在对切向入射波吸收效果不佳等问题.本文提出了一种适用于任意高阶间断有限元的高精度非分裂完全匹配层吸收边界方法,将非分裂完全匹配层吸收边界应用于任意高阶间断有限元地震波数值模拟方法中,建立了完全匹配层内新的波动方程,推导了其求解过程及在三角形单元内的表达形式,最后给出了离散化格式.该方法在完全匹配层也可以求得任意高阶时间精度和空间精度的数值解,与计算区域的精度一致,减少了边界反射波的能量.数值算例模拟结果表明,本文方法对不同角度的入射波具有较好的吸收效果,适用于高泊松比介质.【期刊名称】《中国海上油气》【年(卷),期】2016(028)001【总页数】7页(P41-47)【关键词】非分裂完全匹配层;任意高阶间断有限元;高精度;不同角度入射波;高泊松比【作者】何洋洋;翁斌;张金淼【作者单位】中海油研究总院北京 100028;中国石油大学(北京)北京 102249;中海油研究总院北京 100028;中海油研究总院北京 100028【正文语种】中文【中图分类】TE132.1+4;P631地震波场数值模拟是勘探地球物理的重要研究手段,实际应用中,可以通过求解弹性波动方程来实现[1-2]。

Radical and migratory insertion reaction mechanisms in Schiffbase zirconium alkylsPaul D.Knight a ,Guy Clarkson a ,Max L.Hammond a ,Brian S.Kimberley b ,Peter Scott a,*a Department of Chemistry,University of Warwick,Gibbett Hill Road,Coventry CV47AL,UK bResearch &Technology Centre,BP Chemicals snc,Boite Postale No.6,13117Lavera,FranceReceived 9February 2005;received in revised form 22March 2005;accepted 23March 2005Available online 4May 2005AbstractFour salicylaldimine derivatives H 2L 4–7of 2,20-diamino-6,60-dimethylbiphenyl,where the C @N bond is sterically protected by substituents on the phenol ring,form alkyls of zirconium,cis -a -[Zr L 4–7(CH 2Ph)2].Rather than decomposing via the established pathway of 1,2-migratory insertion of an alkyl group to imine,they undergo a radical mechanism.This is evidenced by the large number of products observed,kinetic and thermodynamic data (Rice-Herfeld,3/2order,positive D S à),response to steric factors,and the fact that switching to a less stable radical leaving group inhibits the reaction.In contrast,the 1,2-migratory insertion is a clean,first-order intramolecular process with negative D S à.The steric modification of the ligands nevertheless transforms an inac-tive precatalyst into a stable system for the polymerisation of ethene.Closely related unbridged salicylaldimine catalysts are known to be highly active catalysts,but in most cases they appear to suffer from high temperature instability.The first examples of zirco-nium alkyls of this class are isolated,and it is found that they are inherently much more resistant to decomposition by either path-way (migratory insertion or radical).Structural studies are used to interpret this variance in behaviour;the biaryl-bridged complexes are pre-organised for both reactions,while the unbridged systems would have to undergo significant ordering prior to activation.Correspondingly,the unbridged systems are not noticeably affected by the same steric modification of the ligand,and it is concluded that the more likely mechanism of catalyst death in the latter is ligand loss (i.e.transfer to aluminium from co-catalyst).Ó2005Elsevier B.V.All rights reserved.Keywords:Mechanism kinetics;Zirconium;Alkene polymerisation1.IntroductionA fundamental concern for those using Schiffbase complexes in catalytic applications is the reactivity of the C @N bond,specifically where this limits the number of turnovers.This issue is particularly important in early transition chemistry,where coordination of the imine unit renders it highly electrophilic [1].We have sought to avoid this issue through the replacement of theC @N units with less reactive linkers,and while this has met with some successes in enantioselective catalysis [2],the favourable properties of Schiffbase systems –strong ligand–metal bond,ease of synthesis,tunability,crystallinity,structural rigidity –have encouraged us to investigate the possibilities for improvement of their stability in early transition complexes.In this context,salicylaldimine (SA)complexes of the group 4metals,[M(SA)2Cl 2](Fig.1),which when combined with,e.g.methylaluminoxane (MAO)yield extremely active or otherwise useful catalysts for the polymerisation of alk-enes,are of particular interest [3].It is assumed that me-tal alkyls are involved in these catalyses,and evidence0022-328X/$-see front matter Ó2005Elsevier B.V.All rights reserved.doi:10.1016/j.jorganchem.2005.03.043*Corresponding author.Tel.:+442476523238;fax:+442476572710.E-mail address:peter.scott@ (P.Scott).Journal of Organometallic Chemistry 690(2005)5125–5144/locate/jorganchemhas been presented that alkyl cation species [M(SA)2Me]+are formed on treatment of [M(SA)2Cl 2]with MAO [4].Coates has mentioned that analogous ketimino ligands form stable alkyl complexes on treat-ment with [Ti(CH 2Ph)4][5].In contrast with many other olefin polymerisation systems however an alkyl cation has not been isloated.We have recently shown that biaryl-bridged salicyl-aldimine derivatives H 2L 1–3(Fig.2)form,under appro-priate conditions,isolable alkyls of zirconium [Zr L 1–3R 2]with cis -a geometry (C 2-symmetric with cis alkyl ligands)[7].Subsequently,however,they decompose via 1,2-migratory insertion of an alkyl group to imine (Scheme 1)followed in some instances by a second sim-ilar reaction.This provides an explanation for their complete inactivity in olefin polymerisation.Here we re-port a detailed kinetic investigation of this reaction,an attempt to prevent the process by ligand modification,discovery of a new decomposition mechanism,and the development of a stable polymerisation catalyst system.We also describe some attempts to apply the lessons learned to the SA catalyst system.Part of this work has been briefly communicated [6].2.Results and discussion 2.1.Ligand designsReducing the steric demand in the phenolate 2-posi-tion (R 0in Scheme 1)reduces the rate of 1,2-migratory insertion in the metal benzyl complexes [Zr L n (CH 2Ph)2](i.e.L 3<L 1<L 2)[7].This is however an unsatisfactory resolution of the problem of complex stability for two reasons;(i)even when this group is hydrogen the 1,2-migratory insertion pathway is still accessible and occurs over a short period of time (<48h),(ii)it is known that group 4iminophenolate complexes require sterically demanding substituents (e.g.t Bu)in this position to fur-nish highly active catalysts for alkene polymerisation [3].We thus sought other modifications.A space-filling model of the molecular structure of [Zr L 1(CH 2Bu t )2][7]is shown in Fig.3(a),with the elec-trophilic imine carbon atom indicated *.We envisaged that notionally moving the 4-methyl substituent to the 5-position [Fig.3(b)]would effectively block the ap-proach of a zirconium bound alkyl group to the imine carbon atom.The series of ligands L 1,L 4,L 5was de-signed to examine the effect of steric demand in this 5-position.In addition,it was envisioned that the series L 6,L 4,L 7would allow investigation of the effect of steric demand in the 2-position for this unusual salicylaldi-mine substitutionpattern.Fig. 3.Space-filling models of (a)[Zr L 1(CH 2CMe 3)2]from X-ray molecular structure and (b)[Zr L 4(CH 2CMe 3)2]based on (a);phenolate 4and 5positions and imine carbon atom (*)indicated.5126P.D.Knight et al./Journal of Organometallic Chemistry 690(2005)5125–51442.2.Synthesis of zirconium alkyl complexesThe synthesis of[Zr L1(CH2Ph)2]was reported previ-ously[7].Reaction of H2L4with zirconium tetrabenzyl in acetonitrile yielded a precipitate which was found to be mainly unreacted H2L4.This was probably due to the low solubility of H2L4in acetonitrile.The complex [Zr L4(CH2Ph)2]was successfully synthesised in dichlo-romethane atÀ78°C.The reaction of the more soluble proligand H2L5with[Zr(CH2Ph)4]in acetonitrile pro-ceeded cleanly giving[Zr L5(CH2Ph)2]in high purity. The complexes[Zr L6(CH2Ph)2]and[Zr L7(CH2Ph)2] were prepared similarly.The NMR spectra of freshly prepared solutions of these complexes were consistent with cis-a geometry.2.3.Solution stability of[Zr L4–7(CH2Ph)2]:initial observationsWe were surprised tofind that the four complexes [Zr L4–7(CH2Ph)2]underwent fairly rapid decomposition in solution,although the spectra of the products were markedly different from those expected for1,2-migra-tory insertion processes.After ca.3h at298K,the1H NMR spectrum of a solution of[Zr L4(CH2Ph)2]in d2-dichloromethane displayed a very large number of new peaks in the imine(d7.5–9.5ppm)and aliphatic regions. These features,which were similar for all four complexes with a5-substituent,are consistent with radical decom-position processes.Attempts at isolation of one of the many decomposition products were unsuccessful.2.4.Kinetic studies of the decomposition processesThe decomposition of[Zr L1(CH2Ph)2]in d2-dichloro-methane was followed by1H NMR spectroscopy be-tween283and303K.Values for the integration of the complex imine peak relative to the residual protio sol-vent resonance were obtained over ca.two half-lives where possible.First-order plots were satisfactory over the whole temperature range(Fig.4).Similar vari-able temperature kinetic studies on the complexes [Zr L4–7(CH2Ph)2]showed that they did not decompose viafirst-order processes and after much experimentation it was found that the only satisfactoryfit was via1.5or-der plots(e.g.Fig.5).This unusual order was confirmed using VanÕt Hoffplots of the data.Activation parameters(Table1)were subsequently obtained via Eyring plots.The uncertainties recorded were calculated using standard methods[8].1The negative value of entropy of activation for the decomposition of[Zr L1(CH2Ph)2]is consistent with the formation of an ordered(four-membered)cyclic transition state in an intramolecular1,2-migratory inser-tion process.As we had proposed,placing a methyl group in the5-position as in complex[Zr L4(CH2Ph)2] inhibits the formation of this cyclic transition state, but unexpectedly a new mechanistic pathway is opened up as evidenced by the number of products formed and by a change in the order of reaction to3/2.Both observations are consistent with Rice–Herzfeld radical propagation kinetics[9,10](vide infra).We propose an initiation step involving homolyticfis-sion of the Zr–CH2Ph bond,leading to formation of two radical species(Eq.(1),Bn=CH2Ph).2The benzyl rad-ical can then attack the ligand(e.g.at an imine position) on another complex molecule to form a new radical spe-cies(Eq.(2)).We have previously described a very clo-sely related reaction at a Nb(IV)Schiffbase system (Scheme2)leading to oxidation to diamagnetic Nb(V) [11].In the case of Zr the radical character is retained by the ligands(Eq.(2)),and the system may react to form a closed shell complex and a further benzyl radical (Eq.(3)).The lack of a higher oxidation state for zirco-nium thus enables a radical propagation process that terminates when two radicals combine(Eq.(4)).Assum-ing steady state conditions,Eq.(5)is eventually ob-tained[10].We note that the observed rate constant k obs(Eq.(6))and thus the thermodynamic values ob-tained from the Eyring analysis for the process of‘‘acti-vation’’are actually composite parameters arising from initiation,propagation and termination.The positive entropies of activation for the complexes of L4–7(Table 1)are nevertheless consistent with a radical process.

The zirconium chloride complexes,[Zr L1–7Cl2],were then purified by sublimation at ca.300°C,10À6mm Hg in all cases and found to possess C2symmetry.However, treatment with MAO in toluene in the presence of ethyl-ene at ambient temperature and1.2bar led to very low uptake of gas.This lack of activity may be attributed to the lack of steric bulk in the phenolate2-position[3,13].2.7.Synthesis of[Zr L8,9Cl2]and polymerisation catalysisThese zirconium chloride complexes were synthesised and characterised as before.Ethylene polymerisation re-sults are summarised in Table2.As can be seen,the presence of the phenolate2-tert-butyl group in[Zr L9Cl2] does not give rise to significant polymerisation activity on its own.In combination with5-methyl substituent, as in[Zr L8Cl2],polymerisation activity was observed for thefirst time using this type of ligand,albeit moder-ate according to GibsonÕs classification[14].The catalyst is unusually stable,and there is no noticeable loss of activity at25and50°C over at least a period of1h (Fig.7).The lower average productivity and activity at 50°C is due to the reduced solubility of ethylene in tol-uene at higher temperatures.2.8.Structural implications of phenolate5-methyl substitutionWe obtained X-ray molecular structures(Table3)of [Zr L7Cl2]and[Zr L9Cl2]via crystals obtained from sam-ples of the pure complexes in d2-dichloromethane.The molecular structures are shown in Fig.8with selected bond lengths and angles given in Table4.The view along the Zr–O axes(Fig.9)highlights the influenceofTable2Polymerisation

imine-CH has led to a twist in the plane of coordination of the phenolate ring,such that the phenolate–CH3lies between the imine group and the adjacent Zr–Cl group.This increases the hindrance of the pathway for1,2-migratory insertion between the imine carbon and a metal bound alkyl group(in place of Cl).This twisting of the phenolate ring may have an additional consequence in that the phenolate2-alkyl substituent has been directed away from the‘‘active sites’’of the catalyst.This may reduce steric compres-sion at these sites resulting in reduced propensity for decomposition as well as opening the sites for increased catalytic activity.2.9.Synthesis and stability of active species in polymerisation catalysisThe question remained as to whether zirconium alkyl complexes of L8and L9decompose via different path-ways.All attempts failed at generating the desired com-plexes by reaction of proligands with zirconium tetrabenzyl and zirconium tetrakis(neopentyl).1H NMR spectra indicated that the reaction was much slower than for less bulky ligands;resonances corre-sponding to unreacted and mono-deprotonated ligand were evident for the neopentyl reaction,and several other products were evident for the benzyl.Attempts at alkylation of the zirconium chloride complexes using Grignard and lithium reagents produced a number of unidentified products.Reactions of[Zr L8Cl2]and [Zr L9Cl2]in NMR tubes with previously dried MAO (10molar equivalents)in d8-toluene resulted inTable3Experimental data for the X-ray diffraction studies[Zr L7Cl2][Zr L9Cl2]ÆCH2Cl2[Zr L11Cl2] Colour

starting complexes and significant broadening of the spectra,but no unambiguous indica-tions of the formation of alkyl or alkyl cation species.Since we could not generate zirconium alkyl com-plexes of L 8and L 9,we decided to use complexes of L 4and L 1as models.An NMR tube was charged with [Zr L 1(CH 2Ph)2]and B(C 6F 5)3,and d 2-dichloromethane was distilled into it at À78°C.The 1H NMR spectra were then recorded at À80°C and then at increments of +10°C up to room temperature.A similar reaction was carried out using [Zr L 4(CH 2Ph)2].In both cases,the 1H NMR spectra indicated formation of [B(C 6F 5)3(CH 2Ph)]À[15].Below ca.À40°C,two imine peaks were observed that do not correspond to the start-ing complexes,and the presence of six methyl reso-nances indicate that the species formed were C 1symmetric.For both reactions,new pairs of doublets oc-curred in the region d 2.0–3.5ppm,and we tentatively assign all these features to the desired cationic species [Zr L (CH 2Ph)]+.Upon warming the solution containing the proposed L 4complex cation,significant decomposi-tion occurred between À30and 0°C;a large number of new imine peaks are generated and the pair of doublets disappeared.The solution containing the L 1complex also decomposes significantly within the same tempera-ture range,however three major new imine peaks are observed along with the disappearance of the pair of doublets.No clear evidence for 1,2-migratory insertion processes was observed in either case.2.10.Application to other catalyst systemsWe sought to investigate the effect of 5-alkyl substitu-tion on Fujita Õs zirconium iminophenolate catalysts.Four proligands H L 10–13(Fig.10)were synthesisedviaFig.9.Salicylaldimine–Zr–Cl fragments of (a)[Zr L 7Cl 2]and (b)[Zr L 9Cl 2]extracted from X-ray molecular structures,highlighting effects of substituents ortho to the iminecarbon.P.D.Knight et al./Journal of Organometallic Chemistry 690(2005)5125–51445131condensation of the appropriate salicylaldehydes with aniline in ethanol.Two of these ligands(H L10,12)have a methyl group in the5-position and two control ligands H L11,13have the traditional2,4-substitution(H L11has previously appeared)[16].Reactions of H L10and H L11with sodium hydride in THF followed by[ZrCl4(THF)2]resulted in the produc-tion of yellow/orange solids which were sublimated at ca.300°C,10À6mm Hg to yield yellow solids of stoichi-ometry[Zr(L10,11)2Cl2],as indicated by mass spectrome-try and CHN analysis.1H NMR spectra revealed that two isomeric complexes were present in both cases. The major products were C2-symmetric,as indicated by the presence of single imine,phenolate methyl and tert-butyl resonances.The minor products(ca.27%for½Zr L102Cl2 and ca.36%for½Zr L112Cl2 )had broad1HNMR spectra at room temperature,but cooling(253K for½Zr L102Cl2 and203K for[Zr L11Cl2])gave riseto sharp resonances.Two imine peaks and two pheno-late methyl and tert-butyl resonances were observed in both complexes.We therefore assigned these species as having the C1-symmetric cis-b topography.The ratio of cis-a to cis-b remains unchanged over a period of days.Interestingly,Fujita and coworkers[16]did not note the presence of cis-b isomers of[Zr L11Cl2], although their NMR data are possibly consistent with this.Coates[5]has noted the presence of cis-b isomers of ketimino titanium complexes and others.Crystals of cis-a-½Zr L112Cl2 were grown from toluenesolution.X-ray analysis revealed that the C2-symmetric complex(Fig.11)crystallises as a dimer via a face-face p–p stacking interaction between N-aryl rings(Fig.12).The distance between H(16A)and the centroid of the proximal aryl ring is ca.3.37A˚[17].The bond dis-tances and angles about Zr(1)are unremarkable for this type of complex[16]and are discussed in more detail through comparison with those of a biaryl-bridged com-plex in Section2.12.Samples of½Zr L102Cl2 and½Zr L112Cl2 were tested at BP laboratories under supported gas-phase conditions with MAO co-catalyst.Both complexes had similarly high activities and catalytic lifetimes were<10min at 50–80°C in both instances.Thus,while substitution of the ligand with a methyl group ortho to the imine carbon atom does not significantly alter the intrinsic polymeri-sation activity of the complexes,it fails to increase lon-gevity of the catalyst in this instance.In the hope of shedding further light on the issue of iminophenolate catalyst stability we undertook a study of some alkyl derivatives.2.11.Synthesis and properties of[Zr(L10–13)2(CH2Ph)2]In NMR tube scale experiments,the reactions between two equivalents each of H L10–13with[Zr(CH2-Ph)4]were shown to give cleanly[Zr(L10–13)2(CH2Ph)2]. One example,[Zr L102(CH2Ph)2],was synthesised on a preparative scale and was characterised in the usual way.Attempts to grow single crystals for X-ray analysis were unsuccessful.The1H NMR spectrum of½Zr L102ðCH2PhÞ2indi-cated the adoption of the cis-a structure;in particular the appearance of the C H2Ph as a pair of AB doublets indicated that interconversion between the chiral-at-metal structures(Fig.13)is slow onthis5132P.D.Knight et al./Journal of Organometallic Chemistry690(2005)5125–5144timescale.The spectrum of½Zr L112ðCH2PhÞ2wassimilar.For[Zr(L12,13)2(CH2Ph)2]these C H2Ph reso-nances appeared as a broad singlet.This trend in con-figurational stability is consistent with an N-dissociative mechanism since bulky groups in the phenolate2-posi-tion would cause steric compression on lengthening of the N–Zr bond,and hence hinder isomerisation[18].All the above complexes were found to be relatively stable with respect to the decomposition reactions de-tailed above.After several days in solution at ambient temperature,samples of the bulky ligand complexes [Zr(L10,11)2(CH2Ph)2]began to show signs of formation of1,2-migratory insertion products,viz.a new single imine peak and a set of three quartets in the regionca.parison of the molecular structures of cis-a-½Zr L9Cl2 and cis-a-½Zr L112Cl2 .P.D.Knight et al./Journal of Organometallic Chemistry690(2005)5125–51445133d 2.5–6.5ppm[1a].Solutions of the complexes [Zr(L12À13)2(CH2Ph)2]showed very little,if any,decom-position over a period of several days.2.12.Stability of[Zr L102CH2Ph]þWe attempted to generate an alkyl cation complex byreaction of½Zr L102ðCH2PhÞ2with B(C6F5)3in an NMRtube atÀ78°C,using d2-dichloromethane as solvent.1H NMR spectra were recorded atÀ80°C and at+10°C increments up to room temperature.Resonances for [B(CH2Ph)(C6F5)3]Àwere observed at low temperature [15],indicating that a reaction had taken place,but while some resonances assignable to a cationic species [Zr(L10)2(CH2Ph)]+were observed,byÀ40°C extensive decomposition had occurred.This result and the at-tempts to form[Zr L1,4(CH2Ph)]+(Section2.8),do not bode well for isolation of a stable alkyl cationic species such as that implicated in olefin polymerisation catalyses by these complexes.Fujita[4]has also detected NMR resonances consistent with such a species on treatment of a dichloride complex with dried MAO.2.13.Biaryl-bridged complexes vs.non-bridged complexesComplexes of our biaryl-bridged ligands above and the non-bridged salicylaldimine type ligands are similar in terms of functionality.Nevertheless,considerable dif-ferences are observed for polymerisation activity.We can see that in comparison to the constrained structure of the biaryl complex[Zr L9Cl2][Fig.14(a)],the N-arylunits in the non-bridged ligand complex½Zr L112Cl2 (b)are directed away from one another.The presence of the biaryl unit also constrains the N–Zr–N0angle toca.72.9°compared with84.3°for½Zr L112Cl2 ,(Table4),and perhaps most importantly reduces the size of the active site by forcing the phenolate units forwards;the O–Zr–O0angles for[Zr L9Cl2]and½Zr L112Cl2 are172.2°and157.4°,respectively.The top view of the com-plexes shows that the phenolate tert-butyl substituents are positioned directly above the zirconium chloride sites in the L9complex,whereas in the L11complex these tert-butyl groups are situated above the zirconium cen-tre.The resultant steric compression in[Zr L9Cl2]forces the chlorides farther apart(108.4°)than in the L11com-plex(94.4°).Given these structural differences,the vari-ance in intrinsic catalytic activity between[Zr L8Cl2]and½Zr L102Cl2 is not surprising.The variance in response of the two catalysts systems to attempted steric blocking of the1,2-migratory inser-tion reaction also requires comment.For the biaryls, the geometry is essentially pre-organised for the approach of metal-coordinated alkyl towards the carbon atom. Steric compression from phenolic ortho substituents (top view,Fig.14)encourages this further.Nevertheless, the constrained biaryl ligand geometry also dictates that a methyl group ortho to the imine consistently impedes this reaction,thus leading to the remarkable increase in catalyst stability detailed above.The unbridged com-plexes are not pre-organised for this reaction,and as a result the1,2-migratory insertion is inherently slower for these compounds.The observation that phenolate 5-methyl substitution does not affect catalyst longevity suggests that either;(i)despite the fact that complexes [Zr(L10–13)2(CH2Ph)2]appear to be rather stable with respect to1,2-migratory insertion,the greaterflexibility allows for imine migratory insertion even in the modified catalyst,or perhaps more likely(ii)that other processes are responsible for catalyst deactivation(vide infra). 3.ConclusionsOur attempt here to block sterically the1,2-migratory insertion process in our Schiffbase group4alkyl com-plexes was successful principally because of the lack of flexibility of the system.This also results however in the complexes being pre-organised for decomposition via a radical process.Kinetic analysis and1H NMR spec-troscopy data highlight the differences between the two pathways.For the1,2-migratory insertion mechanism a single product was formed in a highly diastereoselective intramolecular manner to give an unstable intermediate. The reaction displayedfirst order reaction kinetics with a negative entropy of activation associated with ordered transition state.The radical process gave many products in a1.5order Rice–Herzfeld reaction with positive entro-py of activation,but was inhibited through the use of a less stable radical leaving group(neopentyl)at the metal, thusfinally giving a stable metal alkyl.The effect on polymerisation catalysis using the bia-ryl-bridged complexes with this ligand modification is significant as we transformed an inactive system to one that displays activity(albeit moderate)and also demon-strated that the catalyst is long lived.Application of this simple ligand modification to the unbridged salicylaldimine systems did not lead to an in-crease in polymerisation catalyst lifetime at higher tem-peratures.At least two explanations are available which are consistent with observations to date.If imine reac-tivity is at the heart of the instability of the unbridged systems,then the lack of success in inhibiting1,2-migra-tory insertion by our method might be traced to the dif-ferences in precatalyst structure detailed in Section2.13. If on the other hand,loss of a salicylaldimine ligand(e.g. via transfer to aluminium from MAO)causes catalyst death,then this steric modification would not be ex-pected to make a significant difference.We note the growing body of evidence for the latter picture,such as the relatively poor polymerising capabilities of mono-salicylaldimine complexes[19]and improved sta-bility of more electron-rich phenolate systems[20].5134P.D.Knight et al./Journal of Organometallic Chemistry690(2005)5125–5144。

The main aim of the present article is to provide the expected functor between the two sides. More precisely, we construct a realization functor from Voevodsky's triangulated category of geometrical motives (which should be thought of as the derived category of mixed motives) to the \derived category" of mixed realizations which we constructed in Hu1]. Indeed, most of the present article is a follow-up of loc. cit. where the realization functor was constructed on the category of simplicial varieties. As a direct corollary we also obtain realizations functors to continuous l-adic cohomology and to absolute Hodge cohomology. Their existence is not a surprise (cf. Vo2]) but was not in the literature yet.

A brief introduction of Ralph Waldo Emerson
his distrust of democracy, romantic belief and his h i g h l y in the power of the individual. Emerson's friendship with Carlyle was both lasting and significant; the insights of the British thinker helped Emerson formulate his own philosophy.
Nature, Emerson believed, was often overlooked and taken for granted by the masses. He believed mankind toiled and suffered in their desire for material pursuits, when happiness could be achieved by living a simple life.

LasPinas-ZapoteRiverSystem:拉斯皮尼亚斯萨波特水系

LasPinas-ZapoteRiverSystem:拉斯皮尼亚斯萨波特水系

Las Pinas-Zapote River SystemRehabilitation Program, PhilippinesBackground/ContextRapid increases in population and commercial activity have brought about concomitant environmental problems, and water and air pollution have become a great chall enge to the lead ers of Las Pinas City in the Philippines.Las Pinas has two major river systems: the Las Pinas River and the Zapote River. The Zapote River spans 18.3 kilometers, whil e the Las Pinas River runs 12.6 kilometers mostly through the interior of the city into Manila Bay. The two are linked by 25.1 kilometers of tributaries.As late as the mid-1970s, the river was teeming with freshwater fish and edibl e snails. It was a popular place for picnics. Las Pinas woul d not have been known for the whiteness of its saltproduce had the watersbeen less than pristine.As Manila began to spreaditself as a metropolis,industrial areas were firstpushed outsid e itsconfines to the outer rim.The first casualty of this industrial push was the salt beds. As Metro Manila took its place as one of the worl d's most populated mega-cities, the industrial areas were again pushed towards the south, l eaving the Las Pinas area as valuabl e suburbia. Domestic wastes were freely dumped without any sewage treatment into the rivers, until the waters turned dark, fetid, and dangerous.Pollution caused by the dumping of various waste products kill ed the marine life in the rivers of Las Pinas and turned it into a vast fl oating garbage bin – unsightly, filthy and smelly. What used to be a source of life turned into a source of disease. A larger problem came regularly – fl oods.Many peopl e in Las Pinas shrugged their should ers at the fact that their rivers were moribund, feeling this was the price of progress. After all, they had seen how the two other major rivers of Metro Manila had died: the Pasig and Potrero Rivers had l ong l ost any claim to life.The heavily silted and rivers in Las Pinas City became id eal dumping sites for all types of waste by the public, exhibiting a lack of concern for the environment.Disease-carrying organisms feeding on d ecomposing uncoll ected garbage within the erod ed riverbanks, and fl oods became threats to the life and health of the peopl e, especially women and children.Congressional Representiative Cynthia Villar was one of the few who believed that the environment shoul d not be the sacrificial lamb at the altar of progress and d evel opment. She believed that the Las Pinas and Zapote Rivers coul d be revived. Unfortunately, there was no mod el for success in the rehabilitation of a river in Metro Manila.As Representative of the Lone District of Las Pinas City to Congress for nine years, Cynthia A. Villar was one of the few who believed that the environment should not be the sacrificial lamb at the altar of progress and d evelopment. She believed that the Las Pinas and Zapote Rivers could be revived. She d ecid ed to d evel op and impl ement a comprehensive management scheme for the rehabilitation of the Las Pinas-Zapote river system.The Las Pinas-Zapote River System Rehabilitation ProjectRepresentative Cynthia Villar launchedthe Sagip Ilog project to bring life backinto the rivers of Las Pinas. Theprogram was launched on December13, 2002 with Senator Manny Villard onating a backhoe on a barge, aspeedboat and a dump truck tocelebrate his birthday.Within the 56-kilometer stretch of thisriver system, 30 kilometers are beingregularly cl eaned. This involves daily coll ection of floating garbage, as well as the installation of 5 units of steel garbage traps/wire mesh strainers in the Las Pinas and Zapote rivers to filter the waste/d ebris.Training and Information, Education and Communication (IEC) on River Rehabilitation and ProtectionFrom 2002 to 2005, 9,070 resid ents from various communities along the river system in Las Pinas City, Paranaque City and Bacoor, Cavite were trained on ecol ogical solid waste and river management. Some of them were d esignated river watch volunteers, grouped into 98 teams with 3,576 members. This und ertaking has been the commitment of the Couples for Christ-Oikos Ministry volunteers who, since June 2003, have d evoted every Saturday conducting values formation and solid waste management education for the Las Piñas resid ents. They were trained on ecol ogical solid waste management as an important component of the program. Some of them became river watch volunteers.The l ocal government officials andnearby communities activelyparticipated in the information driveand capacity buil ding activities. Of the9,070 resid ents who attend ed thetraining seminars on rivermanagement, 62% were female whil e32% were mal e. Of those who wered esignated river watch volunteers tomonitor illegal acts within the projectsites, 56% were mal e and 44% were female.To date, there are 3,120 trained and active volunteers. The volunteers were organized into different river watch teams in the areas that bord er on the rivers: 174 teams in Las Piñas, 31 in Paranaque, and 55 in Cavite.Urban Forestry Development: The BambusetumsIn 2001, the Coastal Environment Program of the Department of Environment and Natural Resources-National Capital Region (DENR-NCR) replanted bamboo species, l ocally known as kawayang tinik, to rehabilitate the Marikina and Las Pinas Rivers. These rivers which are both situated in Metro Manila are major contributors to the rapid environmental d egradation of Manila Bay.During the project, one kilometer of theLas Pinas riverbank in Barangay(village) Aldana was replanted with 500culms of the above-stated bamboospecies. The 100 bamboo culms thatsurvived grew alongsid e existingmangroves in the area because theplanting site was near the river mouthtowards the Bay.This inspired Congresswoman Cynthia Villar to replicate the said effort within the Las Piñas riverbank in Barangay Pulang Lupa I, just opposite Brgy. Al dana.Five kilometers of the said river system were targeted for re-greening using bamboos, mangroves and other related species for soil erosion control. To highlight this effort, two separate portions of the riverbanks were d eveloped into “bambusetums”, planted with various species of end emic/exotic bamboos.Re-greening of the river banks minimized soil erosion that caused siltation of the river system. The two established bambusetums, the first in Metro Manila, are id ealfor educational and scientific purposes. The propagation of culms from the 37 species of bamboos available in the area, have been sources of income through the harvesting of matured pol es, sol d to interested handicraft/furniture makers. This is asid e from the jobs provid ed by the program to some 62 workers for the river dredging, cl ean-up, and re-greening activities.The re-greening effort has been sustained by replicating the established bamboo plantation strips within the remaining d enud ed portions of the riverbanks. The Sagip Ilog(river rehabilitation) personnel, who were previously trained by the DENR on bamboo propagation and management, coul d already produce culms and cuttings from matured bamboo clumps and bougainvill ea, respectively. As of August 2010, 10,000 bamboo culms are already planted on the riverbanks measuring 20 kilometers.The Las Piñas City Government through its Environmental Sanitation Center has passed in 2005 the institutionalization of sl ope protection through the approval of City Ordinance No. 658-05.Social Enterprises from River Rehabilitation and Waste ManagementSeveral related social enterprises have sprung from the river rehabilitation initiative: Composting or production of organic fertilizer from wet garbage: Each of the 20 barangays in Las Pinas City now has at l east one composting facility. One rotary composter can process the wet garbage of around 500 families or househol ds (HHs). There are now 37 composters in the city for 18,500 households. By year-end, the number is expected to increase to 50 serving 25,000 househol ds; in three years, 100 composting facilities for al l of Las Piñas City’s 50,000 households. Each composting machine produces 10 sacks of 40 kilograms of compost or 400 kil ograms a week, so that the 37 machines produce 14,800 kilograms weekly for a total monthly production of 59,200 kilograms or 59.2 tons. The selling price of compost is currently at PhP100 per 40-kilogram sack.Since July 2007, vermi-composting isnow being d one in two barangays:Pampl ona 2 and Talon 2, both on acommercial l evel for ad ditional incomeof the resid ents. Producing 400kilograms a week, each l ocation sellstheir produce to farmers in a nearbyprovince as alternative fishmeal asid efrom organic fertilizer. It helps reducethe amount of biod egradabl e waste andcontributes to the promotion of organic farming. This process involves the conversion of waste from households into organic fertilizer through the digestive action of earthworms.On August 12, 2010 a “re-cycling day” was launched in five barangays, engaging resid ents to sell their recyclabl es to junkshop owners. There is now a monthly “re-cycling day” in all 20 barangays of the city.The purchase of a plastic pulverizing machine is und erway to crush non-biod egradabl e materials into powd er form to be sol d to manufacturers of pavers and holl ow bl ocks. This will significantly reduce garbage and provid e income to l ocals.Making of Christmas lanterns and other decorative items from bamboo, capiz shells and other materials that are endemic to the city; the parols (lanterns) makeuse of bamboo for frames. The supply ofbamboo is assured by the thrivingbamboo plantation along the river banksand some vacant l ots in the city throughthe Bambusetum project and thePagtatanim para sa Kinabukasan(“planting for the future”) program.In July 2007, a Certificate ofStewardship was award ed to the parolmakers, giving them joint responsibilityfor the management of thebambusetum, together with the Office ofCongresswoman Villar. This was a joint venture of the DENR and the Sagip Ilog project of Congresswoman Villar. Bamboo culms were also given to the group in the same year.Weaving of baskets from water lilies that posed a problem to the river’s ecosystem and caused fl ooding in the city; water lily stalks are now used as the primary raw materials in the Las Pinas Basket Weaving Center. Started in October 2005, hundreds of families have benefited from the program from villages all over the country.Production of coco nets and coco peatfrom coconut husks that were justthrown into the river; a d ecorticatingmachine shreds the coconut husks l eavingtwo distinct forms: a fiber used formanufacture of coco coir for sl opeprotection and a granular form, a pottingmedium to enrich soil.。

Rump-Parliment

Rump-Parliment

T he Rump Parliament is the name given to the Long Parliament after Pride's Purge ofDecember 1648 in which those MPs who sought a negotiated settlement with King Charles I were forcibly expelled by the New Model Army. The Rump regarded itself as the lawful Parliament of the Commonwealth of England but the derisive name first used widely in 1660 became its enduring nickname after the Restoration.After the purge of December 1648, the Rump Parliament consisted of around eighty MPs. Supported by the New Model Army, the Rump declared itself "the supreme power in this nation" on 4 January 1649 with authority to pass Acts of Parliament without the consent of the King or the House of Lords. One of its first actions was to set up the High Court of Justice, specially convened for the trial of King Charles I.During the weeks between Pride's Purge and the King's execution, approximately 100 MPs who were not on the list of proscribed members stayed away from Parliament in order to avoid involvement in the trial and regicide. Many returned to Westminster when the Commonwealth was established. During February 1649, around eighty MPs were re-admitted upon registering their dissent to the vote of 5 December 1648 to continue negotiations with the King. The re-admitted MPs assumed that their absence during December and January would absolve them of complicity in the regicide. Of the 470 MPs elected to the Long Parliament, around 200 sat in the Rump Parliament between Pride's Purge and Cromwell's dissolution of Parliament in April 1653, including significant numbers of Presbyterians. Sixty or seventy Members attended Westminster regularly during this period.Within days of the King's execution, the Rump Parliament resolved to abolish both the House of Lords and the institution of monarchy itself. England was declared a republican "Commonwealth and Free State" on 19 May 1649. During the early 1650s, attempts were made to incorporate Scotland and Ireland into the Commonwealth with England. Under the Commonwealth régime, and under Cromwell's Protectorate after 1653, the three nations were ruled by a single government for the first time in British history.The Rump Parliament had unprecedented legislative and executive powers. It was solely responsible for governing the nation without the traditional hierarchy of nobles, princes and bishops. Much of its administrative work in central and local government was carried out through the network of committees and commissions that had been established during the early 1640s. T he Council of State was appointed in February 1649 to implement domestic and foreign policy and to ensure the security of the nation. It was stressed that the executive Council of State was subordinate to the legislature, the House of Commons, which remained the supreme authority in the nation.Following the trauma of Pride's Purge and the King's execution, the Rump Parliament adopted a conciliatory and cautious approach towards policy and legislation, particularly after the re-admission to Parliament of moderate MPs who had stayed away to avoid involvement in the regicide. Radicalism was discouraged in order to appease moderate and Presbyterian opinion in the nation as a whole, which might otherwise tend to favour the Royalists. After the final defeat of the Royalist cause at the battle of Worcester in 1651, the Rump came under the scrutiny of the Army radicals and quickly grew to resentwhat it regarded as the Army's unwarranted interference in the political process.T HE C HURCHThe Rump Parliament was widely expected to introduce immediate and radical changes in the Church but few concessions were made to the radicals who wanted universal toleration for the Protestant sects, and steps were taken to curb the excesses of Millenarians and Ranters. With the disappearance of the old Church courts, moral offences were made into secular crimes. The Adultery Act of May 1650 imposed the death penalty for adultery and fornication (though this was never applied in practice); the Blasphemy Act of August 1650 was aimed at curbing extreme religious "enthusiasm". Censorship was imposed in order to limit the propagation of millenarian pamphlets and the first government journal giving the official version of events was published. Although observance of the Sabbath was enforced, there were also concessions towards freedom of worship when the statute that required compulsory attendance at Church was repealed in the T oleration Act of September 1650. This statute, which dated back to the reign of Elizabeth I, had been a mainstay of the power of the Anglican bishops.The process of establishing a Presbyterian church settlement in England, which had started with the Scottish alliance of 1643, slowed to a halt. In an attempt to regulate the clergy and to establish acceptable doctrine, a Committee for the Propagation of the Gospel was proposed to control the appointment of clergy so that only approved ministers were licensed to preach. The propagation scheme was pursued in Wales and northern England, which Puritans regarded as strongholds of Anglican and Catholic influence. Measures for the propagation of the gospel in New England and Ireland were also passed in 1649 and 1650, but discussion of a general propagation Act for the whole of England proceeded slowly. A committee was appointed to consider the proposals for a general religious settlement put forward by the distinguished divine Dr John Owen, but no conclusions had been reached by the time that Cromwell dissolved the Rump in April 1653.Although a commission was established to review parish livings, the problem of funding clergymen was never settled by the Rump. The ancient and controversial system of tithes, under which parishioners were compelled to pay a portion of their income towards the upkeep of the minister, remained in place despite demands from the radicals for its removal.T HE L AWDemands for reform of the law were made by sectarians, the Levellers and the Army radicals. Lawyers were widely despised as corrupt; the central courts, especially that of Chancery, were overworked; the entire legal system was over-complex, slow and prohibitively expensive. Radicals regarded the law as the "Norman Y oke" that had oppressed England since the days of William the Conqueror and called upon Parliament to simplify arcane legal procedures and to curb the power of lawyers by excluding them from Parliament."Commonwealthsmen" like Ludlow, Ireton and Marten regarded a rationalised legalsystem as an integral part of their reform programme. In January 1652, a 21-man commission chaired by the distinguished lawyer Matthew Hale was appointed to investigate legal reform. However, despite a wide-ranging set of proposals for the removal of abuses and for a partial reconstruction of the court system, only minor reforms were ever enacted by Parliament that fell far short of the changes envisaged by the radicals. Common-law courts were empowered to grant probate of wills, which had formerly been a function of Church tribunals; more lenient punishments for debtors were introduced; the special privileges of peers and MPs before the law were removed; the use of English in legal proceedings rather than Latin was authorised. Little was done to reduce legal fees or to provide easier access to the courts.The failure of the reform movement was widely attributed to the malign influence of lawyer-MPs who were reluctant to make changes likely to weaken their privileged position. The conservative Bulstrode Whitelocke MP, one of the commissioners of the Great Seal, was prominent in opposing moves towards radical legal reform.F INANCEThe Rump inherited a large financial deficit from the Long Parliament and finance remained at the heart of the government's problems throughout the Commonwealth period. The two principal means of raising revenue introduced by the Long Parliament were continued by the Rump: an assessment tax on property owners and a general excise duty on goods and commodities. Both these taxes were extremely unpopular. The government claimed that without them, it would be necessary to impose free quarter of soldiers on the civilian population.Finance was also raised by continuing the process of "compounding" whereby the former owners of confiscated Royalist estates were allowed to buy their property back from the government. This proved counter-productive because it caused resentment against the Commonwealth and discouraged reconciliation with the Royalists. In order to raise security for loans from the City of London, the government began selling off former Church and Crown lands from April 1649.Owing to the expense of military campaigns in Ireland and Scotland (1649-51), as well as the Anglo-Dutch war(1652), and the need to maintain a powerful army and navy to defend the Commonwealth, Parliament remained short of money. T axation reached record levels and was deeply resented. The demands of war and the maintenance of national security diverted Parliament's time and resources from the implementation of many proposed social reforms, to the disgust of radicals outside Parliament.F OREIGN P OLICYThe execution of King Charles horrified governments throughout Europe. No foreign power was prepared to recognise the Commonwealth and there was every possibility of foreign intervention in helping the Stuarts to regain the throne. In 1649, Parliament controlled only England and Wales; Scotland declared its allegiance to Charles II and most of Ireland was in Royalist hands. Colonial settlements in Virginia, Maryland and Barbados remained Royalist; the Scillies, the Channel Islands and the Isle of Man wereused as bases for Royalist privateers to prey upon Commonwealth shipping, and a privateering squadron commanded by Prince Rupert began operating from Kinsale in southern Ireland in February 1649.Leaders of the Rump recognised that the key to the survival of the Commonwealth was a strong navy to complement the New Model Army. The office of Lord High Admiral was abolished and the powers of the Navy Committee were increased. Sir Henry Vane came to dominate naval administration, while command of the fleet was given to joint "Generals-at-Sea" of proven loyalty and dedication to the Commonwealth. From March 1649, a major programme of shipbuilding was undertaken and by the end of 1651, twenty powerful new warships had been built and a further twenty-five had been bought or captured, almost doubling the size of the fleet.The Commonwealth navy provided vital support for Oliver Cromwell's invasions of Ireland and Scotland during the Third Civil War, which secured the Commonwealth government's control of the British Isles. General-at-Sea Robert Blake chased Rupert's squadron from Ireland to Portugal, and in 1650 Parliament authorised Blake to attack Portuguese shipping, which coerced King John of Portugal to abandon his support for Rupert and to officially recognise the Commonwealth. Spain expelled Royalist envoys and recognised the Commonwealth in December 1650, partly as a result of England's aggressive policy towards Spain's enemies Portugal and France. Outlying Royalist privateer bases were captured during 1651, and General-at-Sea George Ayscue subjugated Barbados and the American colonies early in 1652.France was slow to recognise the Commonwealth because of close family ties between the Stuart and Bourbon dynasties. Unofficial hostilities broke out between French and English shipping, and Royalist privateers were allowed to operate from French ports. In September 1652, Parliament ordered Blake to intervene in the Franco-Spanish war by attacking and destroying a French fleet sailing to relieve the siege of Dunkirk, which forced the town to surrender to Spain. Alarmed at England's increasing naval power, France came to terms and formally recognised the Commonwealth in December 1652. Despite apparent ideological similarities between the English Commonwealth and the United Provinces of the Netherlands, the First Anglo-Dutch war broke out in 1652 —largely a result of trade rivalry between the two nations.T op of PageD ISSOLUTION OF THE R UMP P ARLIAMENT 1653The Rump Parliament was not intended to be a permanent body. It regarded itself as an interim government with responsibility for preparing the way for a new representative. Oliver Cromwell's decisive victory at the battle of Worcester in September 1651 ended any direct Royalist military threat to the Commonwealth and it was expected that elections would soon take place. However, Parliament was divided over the form that the new representative should take. Sir Henry Vane and his supporters proposed a redistribution of constituencies but with sitting members of the Long Parliament retaining their seats and further "recruiter" elections to fill the vacant places; Oliver Cromwell and the Council of Officers criticised Vane's scheme for promoting theself-interest of sitting MPs and demanded a general election for an entirely new Parliament.A committee to supervise the drafting of plans for new elections was set up soon after Cromwell's return to Parliament after Worcester. A date was finally set for Parliament's dissolution, but MPs were easily distracted from further preparations for the new representative, particularly after the outbreak of the Anglo-Dutch War in May 1652. During the early months of 1653, tension between Parliament and the Army increased. At a conference between Army officers and MPs at Whitehall on 19 April 1653, Cromwell proposed that the parliamentary system be temporarily suspended and replaced with an interim council of godly men to govern while final preparations for an election were put in place. The MPs present agreed to suspend discussion of the new representative at least until Cromwell's proposal has been debated. The following day, however, Cromwell was incensed to learn that discussion of the new representative was continuing in Parliament regardless.At 11 o'clock in the morning of 20 April 1653, Cromwell led a company of musketeers to Westminster. Having secured the approaches to the House, he addressed the Members, calmly at first, then with rising anger as he told them that their sitting was permanently at an end and they must leave. At Cromwell's signal, Lieutenant-Colonel Worsley marched in with the musketeers to drive out the MPs. Major-General Harrison is said to have personally pulled the Speaker of the House from his chair. After the Members had departed, the doors of the Parliament House were sealed and a wit pinned up a notice outside reading: "This House is to be let: now unfurnished."Cromwell's exact reasons for expelling Parliament at this time are unclear. The traditional view is that he had come to believe that Parliament was planning to perpetuate itself by adopting Sir Henry Vane's scheme to allow sitting MPs to remain and to fill vacant places with "recruiter" elections. This view has been questioned by historians in recent times, but no clear explanation of his actions has emerged. There were no plans for an alternative government in place and Cromwell made no attempt to take power himself.The Rump Parliament was replaced by the Nominated Assembly and other constitutional experiments of the 1650s.T op of PageT HE R UMP P ARLIAMENT RECALLED,1659After Oliver Cromwell's death in 1658, his successor Richard Cromwell was forced by Army officers to dissolve the Third Protectorate Parliament in April 1659. The officers, led by their commander-in-chief Charles Fleetwood, intended to keep Richard in power but dependent upon the Army. However, republican Commonwealthsmen were determined to bring the quasi-monarchical Protectorate to an end. They gained the support of junior officers and the rank-and-file of the soldiery by issuing tracts and pamphlets acclaiming the "Good Old Cause" and promising arrears of pay and religious liberty. Fleetwood and the Grandees were unable to resist the soldiers' demands for the return of the Commonwealth.On 5 May 1659, the Council of Officers resolved to recall surviving MPs of the Rump under certain conditions: the Protectorate Council and Upper House would be replaced with a Senate that would include army officers; MPs would grant freedom of worship and undertake to reform the law; Richard Cromwell's safety would be guaranteed. Having provided for new elections, Parliament was then expected to dissolve itself. Around fifty surviving members of the Parliament expelled by Oliver Cromwell in April 1653 duly re-assembled on 7 May 1659. Richard Cromwell made no appeal for support. His formal abdication was read in Parliament on 25 May, bringing the Protectorate to an end. Although welcomed by republicans and religious radicals, the reinstated Parliament did little to implement the promised reforms. It was determined above all to gain control of the Army. Several officers were appointed to the Council of State, but the Speaker was given power to grant commissions and promotions rather than Fleetwood and a committee was appointed to supervise the nomination of officers. Any officer whose loyalty was suspect could be cashiered without being heard by a court-martial.John Lambert, who had resigned in 1657 over the terms of the Humble Petition and Advice, was recalled to command of his regiment during the crisis that led to Richard Cromwell's resignation. Lambert quickly regained his former prominence and, as Parliament's most capable commander, led the troops that suppressed Booth's Uprising in August 1659. The following month, Lambert's officers stationed at Derby (possibly at Lambert's instigation) petitioned Parliament to implement the reforms promised in May, to guarantee that no officer would be dismissed without a court-martial and to restore Lambert himself to the rank of major-general. In a deliberate trial of strength, Parliament forbade further petitioning of Parliament, and, when this failed, revoked the commissions of nine senior officers, including Lambert, Disbrowe and Berry. A seven-man commission was appointed to replace Fleetwood as commander-in-chief. In response to this challenge, Lambert and the senior officers resolved to expel the Rump, as Oliver Cromwell had done in 1653.T wo loyal regiments were ordered to guard the Parliament House but on 13 October 1659, Lambert's troops encircled Westminster, blockaded all approaches by land and water and turned back MPs trying to reach the House. In order to avoid bloodshed, the Council of State ordered the guards at Westminster to stand down. The next day, Lambert ignored the Council's order to withdraw his troops from Westminster. The Council continued to sit until 25 October, then dissolved itself. A new Committee of Safety was hastily appointed as an interim government.Responding to Sir Arthur Hesilrige's call for support against Lambert and the senior officers, General George Monck, the commander-in-chief in Scotland, stepped in to demand Parliament's recall as the only legally constituted government. Lambert marched north to confront Monck in November 1659, but his troops were reluctant to fight their comrades in Monck's army. Hesilrige went to Portsmouth where the garrison mutinied in support of Parliament and vice-admiral Lawson brought the Channel fleet up to Gravesend, threatening to blockade London. Faced with almost universal opposition, the military junta collapsed and Fleetwood was obliged to recall the Rump Parliament, which resumed its sitting on 26 December 1659. MPs grateful for Monck's intervention appointed him commander-in-chief in England as well as Scotland. Lambert's supportersin the army were dismissed.In January 1660, at the invitation of Parliament, Monck marched for London. When Sir Thomas Fairfax emerged from retirement to declare his support for him, army support for Monck became unanimous. Monck arrived in London in February 1660 against a background of apprentice riots and widespread demands across the country for the return of the MPs expelled by Pride's Purge in December 1648. It was during this tumultuous period that the purged Parliament acquired its derisive and enduring nickname of the "Rump" of the Long Parliament. After initially supporting Parliament's orders to suppress the agitation, Monck agreed to support the re-admission of the excluded MPs under certain conditions: he was to be confirmed as commander-in-chief of the Army; a national Presbyterian church was to be established with toleration of separatist groups; Parliament should dissolve itself and call new elections.On 21 February 1660, Monck reversed Pride's Purge by securing the re-admission of the excluded MPs and the final session of the Long Parliament began. After some debate, Monck's conditions were met. The restored Long Parliament voted to dissolve itself on 16 March 1660 and to call new elections. The pro-Royalist Convention Parliament duly assembled on 25 April 1660.[文档可能无法思考全面,请浏览后下载,另外祝您生活愉快,工作顺利,万事如意!]。

Materials and methods
The plants of L. longiflorum Thunb. were collected from Darjeeling, Eastern Himalaya (2000 m). The young bulb scales were used as explants. After initial washing in 5% Teepol (detergent) for 10 min, the explants were surface
194 sterilized with 0.1% HgCI 2 for 30 min, which was followed by 4 to 5 washes with sterile distilled water. The explants were cut into 1 cm 2 pieces and inoculated on modified MS medium (Murashige & Skoog 1962), supplemented with auxin and cytokinin in various combinations and concentrations. The pH of the medium was adjusted to 5.6 to 5.7 before autoclaving. The medium was solidified with 0.6% BDH agar. The cultures were incubated at a relative humidity of 55% under cool white fluorescent light of 20 ixM/(sec m 2) intensity at the level of culture with 16/8 h light and dark period. The growth rate of callus was measured every 15 days by taking the fresh weight from 10 tubes each time. The differentiated bulbs were later transferred to liquid MS medium in 250 ml conical flasks and kept at 80 rpm on a rotary shaker. For cytological study, both callus and root tips of source plants and regenerated plants were pretreated with a saturated solution of paradichlorobenzene : 0.002 M 8-hydroxyquinoline : : 1:1 for 4 h at 12-14°C, washed with water and fixed in 1:3 acetic: ethanol mixture overnight. This treatment was followed by hydrolysis in 5 N HC1 for 20 min (for callus) and 15 min (for root tips) at 12 to 14°C, stained with Feulgen solution and squashed in 45% acetic acid.
intermediate callus formation in Lilium longiflorum was undertaken. Special stress has been given to reascertain the stable nature of the calli of long term culture through chromosome study. The medium for long term callus culture has to be designed in such a way as to retain the regenerating potential of the calli and avoid chromosome instability often noted in other plant species.

led to marked enhancement of growth of bulblets within 3-4 weeks (Figs 4 & 5). The size of the bulb increased with increase in number of bulb scales per bulb from 3-4 to 8-11 approximately. The callus was maintained for three years and its regenerating capacity slightly decreased (Table 1). Approximately 18 bulblets were produced from 1 gm of callus after 3-4 weeks of culture. Through direct regeneration from the 1 cm 2 explant, approximately 6-8 bulblets per explant could be produced within 2-3 weeks. Further growth of bulblets and regeneration were obtained following the same method as used for callus-derived plants. Continuous production of

Abstract
Lilium longiflorum Thunb., commonly known as Easter Lily is widely propagated by vegetative means for its high ornamental value as a pot plant. Following in vitro technique, mass propagation has been achieved through direct production of bulblets from the explant as well as regeneration from callus. The chromosome analysis of the progeny derived from callus even from long term culture, did not reveal any marked variability in chromosome morphology. The stable nature of callus maintained in modified MS medium in long term culture has been confirmed. Along with rapid growth, the regenerating capacity of calli has been maintained for 3 years of culture in the above medium. Following shake culture, large number of bulblets could be obtained from such differentiated calli within 3-4 weeks. The shake culture technique of calli is ideally suited for securing stable regenerants on a mass scale in this species.

Introduction
The species Lilium longiflorum Thunb. belongs to the family Liliaceae, and is of high horticultural value. The tissue culture technique is a powerful tool for mass propagation of desired genotypes of ornamentals (Hussey 1986). For propagation of species of Lilium using tissue culture, bulblets can be produced directly from the bulb scale (Stimart & Ascher 1978; Takayama & Misawa 1983a) and through callus culture (Sheridan 1968; Simmonds & Cumming 1976; Stimart et al. 1980). Takayama & Misawa (1983b) reported that propagation through multiplication of bulbs derived from bulb scales is more advantageous than from callus, in view of chromosomal variation and low regenerating potential of callus. A detailed study on mass propagation of bulblets through direct regeneration and through
