Abstract Effective intercellular communication is an important feature in the development of multicellular organisms. Secreted hedgehog (hh) protein is essential for both long- and short-range cellular signaling required for body pattern formation in animals. In a molecular evolutionary study, we find that the vertebrate homologs of the Drosophila hh gene arose by two gene duplications: the first gave rise to Desert hh, whereas the second produced the Indian and Sonic hh genes. Both duplications occurred before the emergence of vertebrates and probably before the evolution of chordates. The amino-terminal fragment of the hh precursor, crucial in long- and short-range intercellular communication, evolves two to four times slower than the carboxyl-terminal fragment in both Drosophila hh and its vertebrate homologues, suggesting conservation of mechanism of hh action in animals. A majority of amino acid substitutions in the amino- and carboxyl-terminal fragments are conservative, but the carboxyl-terminal domain has undergone extensive insertion-deletion events while maintaining its autocleavage protease activity. Our results point to similarity of evolutionary constraints among sites of Drosophila and vertebrate hh homologs and suggest some future directions for understanding the role of hh genes in the evolution of developmental complexity in animals.

Stability Effect

Glass stability and the structural role of iron oxide in x Fe 2 O 3(100-x)[ B 2 O 3– MO ] systems ( M=Ca , Sr or Ba , 0≤x≤30 mol%) were estimated from differential thermal analysis. The results suggest structural changes characteristic for the transition from short range to intermediate range order as the cationic field strength of the alkaline earths increases. In contrast, the iron addition has an opposite effect and determines a higher glass stability of these systems.

This article describes a literature review that examined the topic of the postdischarge compliance of individuals with prescribed adaptive equipment. Assisting individuals to accomplish tasks relevant to their activities of daily living and thereby achieve functional independence is central to the role of occupational therapy. The prescription of adaptive equipment is a frequently used intervention. The rationale for prescribing adaptive equipment is that it maximises a client's functional potential, allows for independence in activities of daily living and fosters confidence as a result of being able to accomplish such tasks. All studies that surveyed compliance with prescribed adaptive equipment between 1963 and 1996 were reviewed. The factors that reportedly affect compliance by individuals can be considered under five discrete categories: medical-related, client-related, equipment-related, assessment-related and training-related. On the basis of the findings of this literature review, recommendations are made for further research, specifically investigating methods that therapists could incorporate into current practice to address the problem of non-compliance with prescribed adaptive equipment.

This paper explores the role of plans, as objects, in the formation of new innovation practice in organisations. A vocabulary for analysis is developed from innovation object theory. First, findings from an ethnographic study in a hospital organisation show that a plan serves several functions depending on its activation for use: a checklist of past practice (tertiary object), an opener for debates over current practice (secondary object) and a trigger for future practice development (primary object). Second, a framework is offered that shows how a plan supports different functionalities (evaluating, debating, further exploring) in a temporal dynamics of practice formation. Third, thus, plans play a significant role not only in planning activities, but also as connectors that shape and patch together pieces of past, present and future into what actually become new organisational practice. Finally, implications for innovation theory and management are drawn from these novel contributions.

This paper begins the discussion by examining the genealogy of al-Ghazali's thinking, then discussing ideas about his education, to attract its relevance to the current practice of moral education. There are several important points that are the result of this discussion; First, that al-Ghazali's intellectual journey in the search of truth is a very dynamic intellectual dialectic, although in the end, he overrides the ability of reason in seeking the ultimate truth, he has really optimized the role of reason by placing it in a very special position. Second, for al-Ghazali that the estuary of all educational activities is to get closer to Allah. Thus, among the reasons that made al-Ghazali identified as a conservative goalkeeper. Third, however many criticisms of al-Ghazali's concept of education, many of his ideas are still relevant today, especially in matters of character building and moral education.
