Partial Recovery of Alcohol Dependence-Related Deficits in Sleep Evoked Potentials Following 12 Months of Abstinence
The present study tested the hypothesis that the amplitude of K-complex related evoked potential components would increase with prolonged abstinence from alcohol.

Refinement of Structural Leads for Centrally Acting Oxime Reactivators of Phosphylated Cholinesterases
We present a systematic structural optimization of uncharged but ionizable N-substituted 2-hydroxyiminoacetamido alkylamine reactivators of phosphylated human acetylcholinesterase (hAChE) intended to catalyze the hydrolysis of organophosphate (OP)-inhibited hAChE in the CNS.

Developmental Changes in the Sleep Electroencephalogram of Adolescent Boys and Girls
The present study seeks to resolve some of these issues in a combined cross-sectional and longitudinal analysis of sleep EEG in adolescents.

Peptides Derived from the Prohormone proNPQ/Spexin are Potent Central Modulators of Cardiovascular and Renal Function and Nociception
Here we demonstrate biological activity for two peptides present within proNPQ/spexin. NPQ/spexin and NPQ 53–70 have differing renal and cardiovascular effects when administered intracerebroventricularly or intravenously into rats.

Networking named content
We present Content-Centric Networking (CCN) which uses content chunks as a primitive---decoupling location from identity, security and access, and retrieving chunks of content by name.

Sub-300 nm AlGaN lasers on bulk AlN substrates
We describe recent progress on the development of sub-300 nm lasers at the Palo Alto Research Center (PARC).

Assessing the Effectiveness of First Step to Success: Are Short-Term Results the First Step to Long-Term Behavioral Improvements?
This article reports on the effectiveness of First Step to Success, a secondary-level intervention appropriate for students in early elementary school who experience moderate to severe behavior problems and are…

Effect of strain and barrier composition on the polarization of light emission from AlGaN/AlN quantum wells
Experimental results are presented that illustrate the phenomenon for nitride LEDs grown on sapphire and on bulk AlN.

Preserving query privacy in urban sensing systems
In this paper, we focus on a number of scenarios where nodes of an Urban Sensing system are subject to individual queries.

Does NCLB Improve the Achievement of Students With Disabilities? A Regression Discontinuity Design
Using a regression discontinuity design, this study compared the academic achievement of students-with-disabilities subgroups that were just above the minimum-subgroup-size threshold to those just below the threshold.

Speaker recognition with region-constrained MLLR transforms
We define regions based on phonetic and prosodic criteria, based on automatic speech recognition output, and perform MLLR estimation using only frames selected by these criteria.

The Serine-Proline Turn: A Novel Hydrogen-Bonded Template for Designing Peptidomimetics
Factors that contribute to the formation of SP turns include controlling backbone flexibility and amino acid chirality along with creating a hydrophobic environment around the intramolecular hydrogen bonds.
