13. Eccentric America a guidebook of weird, wacky, funny oddities and people to visit in America. Strange, sometimes bizarre. . . .
- www.eccentricamerica.com
- Eccentric America.
- Offering a provocative look at the quirky people and places on the fringes of mainstream tourism, Eccentric America guides you to some of the country's most unforgettable experiences. ...
- America varies considerably when it comes to the eccentric landscape and not all weirdness is created equal. ...
- Sure, you'd expect to see California and Florida at the top of any eccentric pyramid, but you may be surprised to see Washington and Wisconsin ranking right up there among the oddest. ...
- What stands for quintessentially quirky in Nebraska might not even register on the eccentric scale in California, a quality this map can't measure. ...
- If you thought you could just drive across America, hopping from state to state in search of eccentric sites, you might prefer an airplane instead of a car. Jumping from California to Texas to Florida in search of the quirkiest spots in America means driving across some states where there's barely an eccentric blip on the plains of conformity. On the other hand, quantity doesn't always mean quality, as a read through Eccentric America will clearly show. ...
- Listen to author and speaker Jan Friedman talking about ECCENTRIC AMERICA on National Public Radio's "All Things Considered". Traveling or looking for a day out? On this site, you can check out upcoming eccentric festivals in each of the six regions of the United States. Tell Jan about your favorite eccentric destination, and you could win a free copy of her book! Or, sign up to receive the latest news about eccentric sites and personalities.
- Her previous edition of Eccentric America won two book awards. ...
- ECCENTRIC AMERICA is published by Bradt Guides, at $19. ...

15. Intracellular sodium in mammalian muscle fibers after eccentric contractions -- Yeung et al. 94 (6): 2475 -- Journal of Applied Physiology
- jap.physiology.org
- Intracellular sodium in mammalian muscle fibers after eccentric contractions .
- The effect of eccentric contractions on intracellular Na+ concentration ( Na+ i) and its distribution were examined in isolated rat and mouse muscle fiber bundles. ... In contrast 10 eccentric contractions (40% stretch at 4 muscle lengths/s) reduced developed force at 100 Hz to 45 ± 3% of control and increased Na+ i to 16. ... Confocal images of the distribution of Na+ i showed a spatially uniform distribution both at rest and after eccentric contractions. Gd3+ (20 µM) had no effect on resting Na+ i or control tetanic force but prevented the rise of Na+ i and reduced the force deficit after eccentric damage. These data suggest that Na+ entry after eccentric contractions may occur principally through stretch-sensitive channels. ...

- MUSCLE DAMAGE IS A common consequence of intense muscular activity and is more severe when the activity involves stretch of contracting muscles (eccentric contraction). After repeated eccentric contractions, particularly by untrained subjects, the muscles exhibit an immediate muscle weakness and over the subsequent days they remain weak but also become tender, painful, and stiff (33). ...
- The cellular mechanisms that underlie the immediate weakness and the subsequent muscle damage after eccentric contractions have been investigated intensively in recent years. ...
- There is good evidence that changes in excitation-contraction coupling also contribute to the muscle weakness caused by eccentric contractions. ... (38), who showed that, after eccentric contractions, the reduction of the caffeine-induced force was less than the reduction in the stimulated force. ... This finding was confirmed by measurements of myoplasmic Ca2+ ( Ca2+ i), which showed that the stimulation-induced rise in Ca2+ i was reduced after eccentric contractions (2, 20). ...
- Another component of eccentric damage is an increase in membrane permeability. For example, serum albumin was shown to enter 20% of fibers fixed after a period of eccentric contractions (30). Fibers damaged by eccentric contractions can also be identified by the uptake of fluorescent dyes such as orange procion (9). Resting Ca2+ i increases within 10 min of eccentric contractions, and, although the mechanism has not been established, this might also be a consequence of increased membrane permeability (2, 20). In addition, large rises in mitochondrial Ca2+ have been observed 1-2 days after eccentric exercise (11). ... It is also proposed that Ca2+-activated proteases contribute to the cell damage that occurs several days after the eccentric activity (4). ...
16. Asperger Syndrome: What Is It?
- www.udel.edu
- Because of their high degree of functionality and their naiveté, those with AS are often viewed as eccentric or odd and can easily become victims of teasing and bullying. ...
- A few people with Asperger's syndrome are very successful and until recently were not diagnosed with anything but were seen as brilliant, eccentric, absent minded, socially inept, and a little awkward physically. ...
17. Nightfall Eclipsing Binary Star Program
- www.lsw.uni-heidelberg.de
- Nightfall can handle a large range of configurations, including overcontact (common envelope) systems, eccentric (non-circular) orbits, surface spots and asynchroneous rotation (stars rotating slower or faster than the orbital period), and the possible existence of a third star in the system ('third light'). ...
