This paper shows how culture is used and transformed as it becomes mobilized as a strategic resource in a regional development project within a neoliberal economic discourse. The focus is how four smaller municipalities in the transnational Swedish/Danish Öresund region initiate a process of cultural mappings in order to incorporate local culture and cultural heritage in the regional tourist econo

1. Mechanical transients in fibre bundles of skinned smooth muscle of guinea-pig taenia coli at 21-22 degrees C were investigated by recording tension responses to length changes of up to 9%, complete within 0.3 ms. 2. The length-force relationship, recorded continuously during rapid stretch of a Ca(2+)-activated contracted muscle, was linear up to at least 2.5 times the isometric force, correspon
The nuclear receptor peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor delta [PPARdelta/beta (NR1C2)] has been implicated in colorectal carcinogenesis by various molecular genetic observations. These observations have recently been supported by studies of activation of PPARdelta by pharmacological agents. Here we present the first report of the stimulation of breast and prostate cancer cell growth using
The study of quark jets in e(+)e(-) reactions at LEP has demonstrated that the hadronisation process is reproduced well by the Lund string model. However. our understanding of gluon fragmentation is less complete. In this study enriched quark and gluon jet samples of different purities are selected in three-jet events from hadronic decays of the Z collected by the DELPHI experiment in the LEP runs
1. We investigated the individual and combined effects of two predators (the climbing perch, Anabas testudineus, and the wetland crab, Esanthelphusa nimoafi) indigenous to wetlands in Laos, on the behaviour and survival of the invasive South American golden apple snail (Pomacea canaliculata). The snail is considered a pest, consuming large amounts of rice and other aquatic vegetation in the region
Progress in the area of proton conducting polymer electrolyte membranes is intimately linked with the development of polymer electrolyte membrane fuel cells, and is today largely driven by the insufficient properties of humidified Nafion® membranes at temperatures above 100 °C. Recent developments in the field include new ionomers and hybrid membranes containing inorganic nanoparticles to control
During a 15-y period, 48 children were treated for Wilms' tumour (WT). Seven of them were < 1 y of age at diagnosis. One child presented with non-traumatic haematuria, but in all the other children WT was revealed as a palpable abdominal mass at routine examination or investigation due to another disease. The four children under 6 months of age at diagnosis were primarily operated upon; the others
The drought of 2003 was exceptionally severe in many regions of Europe, both in duration and in intensity. In some areas, especially in Germany and France, it was the strongest drought for the last 50 years, lasting for more than 6 months. We used continuous carbon and water flux measurements at 12 European monitoring sites covering various forest ecosystem types and a large climatic range in ord
The dispersive properties of dielectric materials in both the time and the frequency domains are discussed. Special emphasis is placed on the treatment of heterogeneous materials, particularly two-phase mixtures. A time-domain Maxwell-Garnett rule is derived that differs from the corresponding frequency-domain formula in that it is expressed in terms of convolutions and inverse operators of the su
Mo oxide films were prepared by dual-target reactive DC magnetron sputtering under conditions leading to films that were blue in as-deposited state. The deposition rate for this “blue” Mo oxide was as high as 1.5 nm/s, to be compared to ∼0.85 and ∼0.1 nm/s for highly transparent Mo oxide films made with dual-target and single-target sputtering, respectively. Good electrochromic properties of the “
