Eisner Isn t another complication that this doesn t take account of how the store refills The first time you stimulate you may release a lot of Ca2+ from the store. I guess some of this will get pumped out of the cell, so you are in a different position next time you have a store with less Ca2+ in it. Unless you take account of this, it is hard to predict what will happen. 

Eisner For a spark, most of it isn t lost, but from a wave which will see the surface membrane, you will lose a lot. This then comes back to the question of cyclic ADP ribose, FK506 and so on that may potentiate Ca2+ release from the SR, but in the presence of these things you will end up with less Ca2+ in the SR. 

We have evidence that the female assesses male size indirectly, by gauging the size of the spermatophore, which in Utetheisa is proportional in size to body size (LaMunyon and Eisner, 1994). If large males are experimentally caused to produce inordinately small spermatophores (as a consequence of having mated shortly beforehand with another female), their sperm will lose out to that of a smaller male, whose spermatophore is then the relatively larger one. 

Along with greater sophistication about the many roles played by psychoactive compounds in people s lives and the possibility of exposure to a wider variety of psychedelics, users in the future will also be beneficiaries of recent techniques that (1) aim at realizing the "peaks of the psychedelic experience through nondrug means, and/or (2) are designed to enhance the productiveness of sessions. Bruce Eisner, writing about such contemporary research, sketched some examples ... 

Insects offer endless opportunities for experiments with defense secretions. For a review, see Eisner et al. 2005. Upon gentle contact with a forceps insects will release defense secretions. Keep the insect that just has released the defense secretion in a vial with a wire screen cover, or in a tiny wire cage of the type honey bee queens are shipped in through the mail. Observe responses by other insects or predators such as spiders, lizards, frogs, birds, or small rodents. 

Following the approach taken by Eisner and Kuthan in their review of dihydropyridines,1 this article will incorporate only isolable or spectroscopically identified monocyclic dihydrodiazines and dihydrotriazines. We specifically exclude compounds containing exocyclic double bonds, i.e., particularly azine methenes, as well as oxo-, thio- or iminodihydroazines (5a), which can be considered as tautomeric azines (5b), and hydroxy, mercapto, and amino DHA (6a), which can exist in the tautomeric tetrahydroazine form (6b). 

Arnold (1978) has called attention to the fact that all previous workers had assumed a uniform distribution of models and mimics in space. He was able to show mathematically that if the models clump, there will be reduced predation upon them. Selection will favor values for the predator s mean movements and waiting time (n) such that it will move out of the clump of models and into a region with a higher density of mimics. Individual models should be selected for clumping including traits, such as pheromones, that promote it (Eisner and Kafatos, 1962).
