Latvian National Armed forces (LNAF) in cooperation with Lund University, Sweden and Riga Technical University, Latvia has developed the combat sleeping bag system (CSBS) of the LNAF under the Soldier System platform (SSP) 2009 – 2013 modernization program. Protection from the cold and thermal infrared surveillance during the low level metabolic heat rate of sleeping (40 W/m2) is the key aspect of

Implications of the social consequences of global information technology outsourcing in the USA

The transformation and movement of work opportunities is not a new phenomenon. This has been the norm in many industries, such as manufacturing, semi-conductors, clothing, etc. This is the first time, however, that so-called knowledge intensive work areas would be hit en masse, instead of low waged jobs. This has and will have a large impact on individuals, firms, and society. From a global perspe

DNA in centromeres of Chironomus pallidivittatus

The centromeres of most higher eukaryotes are embedded within large regions of constitutive heterochromatin and consist of large quantities of highly repetitive DNA. Transposable elements are also found in these regions. However, a detailed mapping of such elements or other nonsatellite DNA embedded within the large blocks of centromeric repetitive DNA has not yet been made. The dipteran Chironomu

Biodiversity in temperate European grasslands: origin and conservation.

Northern Europe is in the forest zone, but wild megaherbivores have maintained grass-dominated vegetation here for the last 1.8 million years. Continuity of the grassland biome through glacialinterglacial cycles and connection to steppe vegetation has resulted in the evolution, immigration, and survival of a large number of grassland species. During the last millennia the effect of wild ungulates
