Terrorism and war threaten us, but they happen infrequently. On a day-to-day basis more people are assaulted by muggers and mayhem in their neighborhood than by exotic groups or foreign countries. The streetwise city dweller will have bars on his window, use an intercom or peephole to see who is at the door, and carry a can of pepper spray when it s time to walk the dog. In lands where such modern conveniences are unknown, stone or wooden walls can be built around the hut to keep out intruders (both two- and four-footed), and a spear is kept by the bed in case the wall is breached. [Pg.118]

A pearl is a concretion produced by a mollusc. There are a number of theories as to why a pearl forms, but it seems evident that it is, at least in part, as a reaction to some type of intruder or foreign body in the shell. [Pg.142]

Most drugs are treated by the body as foreign substances (xenobiotics) and become subject to its various mechanisms for ridding itself of chemical intruders. [Pg.112]

However, there have been cases where companies have hired unpredictable workers without a criminal record. In early 2004, in Texas, for example, a contract security guard at a BASF ammonia facility apparently shot himself, then blamed it on a foreign intruder, only to be arrested on other unrelated charges two weeks later. His story had been covered widely by the media, raising public concerns about plant safety. [Pg.73]

Solid solutions are produced when foreign molecules are incorporated into a host crystal without grossly altering the host s crystal structure. These foreign or guest molecules may occupy the lattice points (i.e., where the structural units of the host crystal are located) to form a substitutional solid solution, or they may intrude the interstices (nonlattice positions) to form an interstitial... [Pg.292]

Imagine, for a moment, that a foreign nation has dispatched a band of terrorists to the United States. The intruders silently move across the landscape depositing toxic chemicals at a thousand sites around the country. Some of the toxic compounds quickly enter the rivers and underground reservoirs that supply America with drinking water. Other chemicals contaminate our neighborhoods and backyards where our children play. Still others sit like time bombs, destined to contaminate our water supplies after months, years, or even decades. The toxic chemicals carried by these enemies are the products of the most sophisticated laboratories on Earth. They cause birth defects, liver disease, and cancer. Their effects may be felt for generations. [Pg.288]

The model is here, of course, the Fascist notion of social antagonisms as the result of a foreign intruder—Jews—disturbing the organic totality of the social edifice. ... [Pg.161]

Myanmar should not be a symbol of foreign intruder. Therefore, in the process of decolonization, a new capital should be established to uplift patriotic spirit and historical pride (Maung Aung Myoe, 2006 8). [Pg.1026]

Search for local trends and attitudes and maintain harmony with them. One good way of doing so is by utilizing as few foreigners as possible in the factory. Foreigners are often considered intruders. When they are brought in, they should always have a local adviser on hand to make sure that consistency with local thought and traditions are maintained. The Japanese follow this policy when they install a factory in the United States, an environment with which they are familiar. [Pg.113]

Antibodies are produced by mammals as part of an immune response of the host to foreign intruders such as microorganisms, viruses, bacteria, and parasites. Antibodies are otherwise called immunoglobins and are heavy globular plasma proteins (150 kDa). Antibodies can be classified in to five classes IgG, IgM, IgA, IgE, and IgD. Immunoglobin G (IgG) is the most abundant immunoglobin species in serum and also the most commonly used... [Pg.207]
