Many problems plague the United States' transportation infrastructure: congestion, poor roadway conditions, obsolescence, and maintenance cost not the least among these. In recent years, the Department of Transportation, through its Maritime Administration (MARAD), has begun a program for partial solution to this complex transportation issue. MARAD, acting on tasks assigned to it in the Energy Independence and Security Act of 2007, has established the Marine Highways Initiative to spur...

Electricity supply shortages in South Africa are a result of poor strategic planning in relation to energy forecasting. This unfortunately has compromised the security of supply of the country which negatively affects its economic stability. Feasibility studies may be viewed as a tedious and expensive exercise, but they are necessary to develop strategies to resolve the country’s energy crises. Feasibility studies in the energy sector would enable accurate and informed procurement of hybrid...

A Mercury-Atlas flight (AMR Test 1254) launched at 14:04:16Z, Sept. 9, 1961 was detected in the launch phase by the NRL Chesapeake Bay Annex Madre radar. The transmitter frequency was 13.7 Mc and its average power was 100 kw. The rotary antenna used had a gain of about 12 db. The type of signature obtained demonstrated the capability of an 'over-the-horizon' radar to measure range and range rate of the missile and its exhaust boundary. The characteristics of the signals detected suggest that...

This study tests the feasibility of using CRISPR-Cas9 to introduce patient-derived clonal truncal mutations into prostate cell lines in order to study their potential druggability. We aimed to establish a positive control cell line by introducing a known PIK3CA mutation that is druggable using available PI3K pathway inhibitors. However, using immortalized normal prostate epithelial cell line RWPE-1 we had significant problems getting CRISPR working efficiently. We suspected this being due to...
