26824732#0 | Edward Morwitz | Edward Morwitz (12 June 1815 Danzig, Prussia – 13 December 1893 Philadelphia, Pennsylvania) was a physician and inventor in Germany and a newspaper publisher and physician in the United States. |
26824732#1 | Edward Morwitz | Morwitz was the son of a wealthy merchant. He studied Semitic languages, Oriental literature, philosophy, theology, and finally medicine at the universities of Halle, Leipzig, and Berlin. In 1841, he received the degree of M.D. from Berlin and was made first assistant of the Hufeland Clinic there. In 1843, Morwitz made a tour of parts of Germany, France, and Switzerland. On returning to Prussia, he took up his residence in the town of Conitz, where he practised his profession and his specialty in the treatment of nervous and mental disorders. So successful he was at Conitz that he also started and supported a hospital there for the poor. He began writing his "Geschichte der Medicin" (History of Medicine). |
26824732#2 | Edward Morwitz | His attention to medicine was interrupted by the Revolutions of 1848, when he favored the revolutionaries. His opinions were well known and won him friends, but also enemies. On a certain occasion his carriage was overturned by a group of royalists, and he met with severe injuries, from which, however, he gradually recovered. However, he felt obliged to emigrate. |
26824732#3 | Edward Morwitz | He had invented a breech-loading gun. Finding no market for this patent in Germany, in 1850 he visited England and the United States, but without success. He soon returned to Europe, but having determined to settle in America, again returned to the United States and settled in Philadelphia in 1852. |
26824732#4 | Edward Morwitz | In 1853 he purchased the German-language newspaper "Demokrat" which was long edited and published by him. In his conduct of this daily, Morwitz advocated measures for the improvement of the city, among them the consolidation of its different sections under a single mayor. In 1855, he began the publication of a political weekly called "Vereinigte Staaten Zeitung" (United States Journal), the influence of which was felt in the election of Richard Vaux as Mayor of Philadelphia in 1856. In the same year, Morwitz started a Sunday paper "Die Neue Welt" (The New World), which took the place of a Sunday edition of the "Demokrat". |
26824732#5 | Edward Morwitz | In politics Moritz was an active Democrat, and advocated the election of James Buchanan as President of the United States in 1856. For a few years, he freely ventilated his political views in a paper he had purchased, called the "Pennsylvanian". This he sold in 1860, when he recognized dangers arising from the separate nominations of Stephen A. Douglas and John C. Breckinridge as candidates for the presidency. He confined his efforts to the "Demokrat", which, thereafter, adopted a neutral policy. He also opened a German dispensary, which, for quite a period, continued its operations among the sick poor. |
26824732#6 | Edward Morwitz | While, at first, he thought the Civil War might be averted, Morwitz remained loyal to the Union, and helped to organize and equip regiments sent to the field.
In 1862 he was active in establishing the German Press Association of Pennsylvania. In 1870 he called a meeting to raise funds for assisting German soldiers during the Franco-Prussian War. About $600,000 was raised throughout the country and sent to Germany. In 1874, Morwitz purchased the "Age", a daily newspaper of Philadelphia published in the English language; but in 1875 he sold it to the Times Publishing Company. He controlled many German-language and English-language newspapers in several states, having under his management at one time as many as 300 papers, among them eight dailies. |
26824732#7 | Edward Morwitz | Morwitz published numerous books, among them:Attribution |

26824852#0 | Chaetomium cupreum | Chaetomium cupreum is a fungus in the family, Chaetomiaceae. It is able to decay in manufactured cellulosic materials, and is known to antagonize a wide range of soil microorganisms. This species is component of the biocontrol agent, Ketomium, a commercial biofungicide. It has also been investigated for use in the production of natural dyes. "Chaetomium cupreum" is mesophilic and known to occur in harsh environments and can rapidly colonize organic substrates in soil. Laboratory cultures of "C. cupreum" can be propagated on a range of common growth media including potato dextrose at ambient or higher than ambient temperature producing cottony white colonies with a reddish reverse. |
26824852#1 | Chaetomium cupreum | "Chaetomium cupreum" was described by Lawrence Marion Ames in 1949 as part of a military effort to identify the organisms responsible for the biodeterioration. During this project, Ames documented 9 novel "Chaetomium" species including the culture Ames described as "C. cupreum" which was sent to him by Paul Marsh of the U.S Department of Agriculture from deteriorating material collected in the Panama Canal Zone. Ames selected the species epithet "cupreum" based on the copper coloration of the pigments produced by the fungus. A second sample was obtained by G.W Martin in Guadalcanal. Both strains were isolated from rotting clothing, tenting, mattresses and equipment. |
26824852#2 | Chaetomium cupreum | The cell wall of "C. cupreum" is largely composed of chitin and glucan, which is reflected in the large number of acquired genes encoding class V chitin synthase and glucan synthase found in the "C. cupreum" cDNA. The vegetative mycelium is profusely branched, septate and multicellular; the mycelial cells are multinucleate. The species is distinguished from other "Chaetomium" species by a high frequency of boat-shaped ascospores and copper coloured terminal hairs. The fruiting bodies occur on the surface of the substratum and are attached by undifferentiated rhizoids. The perithecia of "C. cupreum" are ovate in shape and copper colored with dimensions of 110–120 x 120–130 μm. The presence of long, thin hairs on the outer surface of the perithecium is a characteristic feature of "Chaetomium" (Gr. "χαίτη" = long hair). In "C. cupreum", these hairs are numerous, thin, septate lateral hairs with a base 3.0–3.5 μm in diameter. Hairs at the apex of the perithecium are rigid, septate, 4.5–6.0 μm in diameter with 1–2 spirals. The apical hairs are covered with small copper coloured granules whose pigment is soluble in alcohol, ether, cellosolve, xylol but insoluble in water. Club-shaped asci measuring 38 × 13 μm develop in clusters n the interior, basal part of the perithecium. Each ascus contains 8 reddish ascospores that are boat shaped with dimensions of 10.0 × 5.5μm. The walls of the asci are mucilaginous and disintegrate, causing the ascospores to remain inside the perithecium at maturity, embedded in mucilaginous jelly. The ascospores and the mucilaginous matrix form a paste that is extruded through the apical opening in the perithecium producing "cirrhi" resembling toothpaste squeezed out from a toothpaste tube. "Chaetomium cupreum" is intermediate between the species: "C. trilaterale" Chivers and "C. aureum" Chivers. "C. aureum" and "C. cupreum" both produce conspicuous cirrhi while "C. trilaterale" does not. The ascospores of "C. cupreum" are similar shape but larger than "C. aureum". The pigment produced by "C. trilaterale" in agar cultures is water-soluble while the granules produced on "C. cupreum" are insoluble. |
26824852#3 | Chaetomium cupreum | "Chaetomium cupreum" is known only as a sexually reproducing species and no asexual form has been reported. Ames originally reported "C. cupreum" to possess a homothallic mating system but this was later contradicted by Tveit in 1955 who determined the species to be heterothallic. Sexual reproduction in "C. cupreum" involves the formation of ascogonia arising as lateral outgrowths of the vegetative mycelium. In early developmental stages, the ascogonia are coiled and coenocytic with septa forming as the ascogonia mature. The terminal cell of each ascogonium will become a long trichogyne which functions as the receptive organ. Male reproductive structures, antheridia are commonly absent in "Chaetomium." |
26824852#4 | Chaetomium cupreum | The metabolism of "C. cupreum" is complex. In an Expressed Sequence Tag (EST) study conducted by Zhang and Yang in 2007 "C. cupreum" demonstrated a diverse expression of genes related to metabolic pathways. In their study the most represented metabolic pathway was glycolysis demonstrating its importance in mycelia cell metabolism. The second most represented category was porphyrin and chlorophyll metabolism, the fungi cannot produce chlorophyll but they have a heme biosynthetic pathway. Genes encoding coproporphyrinogen oxidase, an essential enzyme in the heme biosynthetic pathway were found as well as genes associated with the electron transport chain and oxidative phosphorylation. The citric acid cycle also has a role in its energy metabolism with 18% of metabolic genes relating to TCA cycle function. Saccharide metabolism associated genes were also found for the metabolism of: galactose, fructose, mannose, sucrose, starch, nucleotide sugars, amino sugars, as well as glycoprotein and peptide-protein biosynthesis. Many genes have been identified in this species that support protein biosynthesis and proteolytic systems including: glutamate, methionine and tryptophan metabolism; phenylalanine, valine, leucine and isoleucine degradation; valine, leucine, isoleucine, tyrosine and tryptophan biosynthesis. Proteases produced by "C. cupreum" are involved in pathogen cell wall breakdown and contribute to its biocontrol activity. Biotechnological interest in "C. cupreum" is related to its production of cellulase and laccase. "C. cupreum" is able to degradae catechin. |
26824852#5 | Chaetomium cupreum | Agricultural interest in "C. cupreum" has arisen due to the ability of some strains to suppress infections by plant pathogens. The biocontrol capacity of "C.cupreum" has been attributed to the production of antifungal metabolites, release of hydrolases, mycoparasitism and competition for nutrients and space. "Chaetomium cupreum" produces a diverse set of hydrolytic enzymes making it a strong biodegrader and substrate colonizer as a result of its large secretory potential and metabolic versatility. EST analysis of "C. cupreum" revealed several candidate biocontrol genesrelated to: cell-wall degradation, proteolytic function, antifungal metabolite production and production of substances that enhance plant disease resistance. |
26824852#6 | Chaetomium cupreum | "Chaetomium cupreum" has genes encoding cell wall hydrolases including: β 1-3 exoglucanase, endoglucanase IV, β glucosidase 5 and 6, and chitinase. β 1-3 exoglucanase, endoglucanase IV and β glucosidases are major lytic enzymes targeting the fungal cell wall responsible for breaking down β-1,3-glucans. These and other hydrolases targeting fungal cell wall components function synergistically and are presumed to play an important role in mycoparasitism. β-1,3-glucan binding protein present in "C. cupreum" bind specifically to β-1,3-glucan and lipoteichoic acids in the cell wall of pathogens causing aggregation of the invading fungi for host and biocontrol fungi cell recognition and protection. The induction of plant resistance involves xylanases, xylanase genes are found in "C. cupreum." The destruction of nascent chitin of pathogens generates oligosaccharides containing GlcNAC which elicits a general antifungal response from "C. cupreum". "C. cupreum" also produces subtilisin-like serine protease and aspartic proteinases found in "C. cupreum" that contribute to cell wall degradation and deactivation of pathogen enzymes. |
26824852#7 | Chaetomium cupreum | "Chaetomium cupreum" produces a range of antifungal metabolites including polyketide synthase, terpenes, chetomin, rotiorinols A-C, "multidrug resistance protein", isopenicillin N synthase and related dioxygenases some of which have been investigated for pharmaceutical use. A beta-lactamase-like major facilitator in "C. cupreum" provides tolerance to toxic compounds, such as fungicides. Several pigments produced by this species including rotiorinols A & C, (-)-rotiorin and rubrorotiorin have been shown to exhibit antifungal activity against the pathogenic yeast, "Candida albicans". Pigment produced by "C. cupreum" has "in vitro" antagonistic activity against the phytopathogenic bacterium, "Ralstonia solanacearum." |
26824852#8 | Chaetomium cupreum | "Chaetomium cupreum" is able to antagonize a wide set of plant pathogens including "Magnaporthe grisea, Rhizoctonia solani" and "Cochliobolus lunatus." Registered and commercially available as "Ketomium" mycofungicide, Ketomium is a biofungicide comprising 22-strains of "C. cupreum" and "C. globosum" for use in disease control of various pathogens. The product has been implementation as a biocontrol agent in a number of geographic localities including China, Philippines, Russia, Vietnam and Thailand. Ketomium has been shown to produces an endurable protection against pathogens including: "Phytophthora palmivora, Phytophthora nicotianae, Phytophthora cactorum, Fusarium oxysporum," and "Athelia rolfsii". These phytopathogens are known to infect economically important plants such as durian, black peppers, tangerine, strawberry, tomato, corn and pomelo. |
26824852#9 | Chaetomium cupreum | The extracellular pigment produced by "C. cupreum" is influenced by environmental factors such as pH in which low pH causes the pigments to turn yellow and high pH restores the characteristic red colour. In a photoresponse study researchers investigated the effect of variable wavelengths of visible light on the production of pigments. "C. cupreum" biomass and pigment production were variable depending on the wavelength of light used during the 7 day incubation period. The white colonies produced ascospores and a deep red, water-soluble reverse pigment. Incubation in white light lead to the largest colony diameter while green light lead to the greatest pigment production. The varying concentrations suggests pigment loss, possibly explained by nutrient depletion induced enzymatic breakdown of pigments - a common phenomena where secondary metabolites are degraded by enzymes. Further research is required to gain a comprehensive understanding of the regulation of pigment biosynthesis induced by light. "C. cupreum" has the potential to have significant commercial application for the production of natural dyes. |

Custer leading 7th Cavalry on June 24–25, 1876 just prior to the Battle of the Little Bighorn. On the early morning hours of June 25, 1876 Crow Scouts with the 7th Cavalry ascended to a high point (now known as the Crow's Nest) in the Wolf Mountains south of the Davis Creek/Reno Creek divide, and looking toward the Little Bighorn Valley saw indications of the large Lakota Sioux/Northern Cheyenne village which Custer and the 7th Cavalry then attacked later that same day, in the Battle of the Little Bighorn. |

26824878#0 | Terminal dehydration | Terminal dehydration is dehydration to the point of death, potentially as a suicide method. Some scholars make a distinction between "terminal dehydration" and "termination by dehydration". Courts in the United States generally do not recognize prisoners as having a right to die by voluntary dehydration, since they view it as suicide. |
26824878#1 | Terminal dehydration | During terminal dehydration, the usual symptoms of dehydration, such as headache and leg cramps, can occur. Unlike many other suicide methods, it cannot be accomplished impulsively. However, a "point of no return" can eventually be reached at which, should it be desired to abort the terminal dehydration, rehydration cannot be accomplished through simple oral rehydration therapy; rather, it will require medical assistance such as intravenous therapy. Those who die by terminal dehydration typically lapse into unconsciousness before death, and may also experience delirium and altered serum sodium. Discontinuation of hydration does not produce true thirst, although a sensation of dryness of the mouth often is reported as "thirst". The evidence this is not true thirst is extensive and shows the ill feeling is not relieved by giving fluids intravenously but is relieved by wetting the tongue and lips and proper care of the mouth. Patients with edema tend to take longer to die of dehydration because of the excess fluid in their bodies. Dehydration has been known to cause a sense of "mild euphoria", provided no intravenous is used. |
26824878#2 | Terminal dehydration | Terminal dehydration (also known as voluntary death by dehydration or VDD) has been described as having substantial advantages over physician-assisted suicide with respect to self-determination, access, professional integrity, and social implications. Specifically, a patient has a right to refuse treatment and it would be a personal assault for someone to force water on a patient, but such is not the case if a doctor merely refuses to provide lethal medication. Some physicians believe it might have distinctive drawbacks as a humane means of voluntary death. One survey of hospice nurses in Oregon (where physician-assisted suicide is legal) found that nearly twice as many had cared for patients who chose voluntary refusal of food and fluids to hasten death as had cared for patients who chose physician-assisted suicide. They also rated fasting and dehydration as causing less suffering and pain and being more peaceful than physician-assisted suicide. Patients undergoing terminal dehydration can often feel no pain, as they are often given sedatives and care such as mouth rinses or sprays There can be a fine line between terminal sedation that results in death by dehydration and euthanasia. |
26824878#3 | Terminal dehydration | Studies have shown that for terminally ill patients who choose to die, deaths by terminal dehydration are generally peaceful, and not associated with suffering, when supplemented with adequate pain medication.
All ages may feel sudden head rushes, dizziness, and loss of appetite, as well. |
26824878#4 | Terminal dehydration | Members of the Buddhist Sokushinbutsu sect of Japan historically practiced a form of self-mummification which in part was achieved by the forgoing of all food and liquid until death. |
26824878#5 | Terminal dehydration | In the Netherlands, debate has broken out about terminal dehydration, which is referred to as "". There have been accusations that involuntary dehydration takes place in nursing homes. Another doctoral thesis found no evidence of forced-upon "versterving" in nursing homes. There was, however, voiced vehement opposition considering assistance for those who voluntarily abstained from food and drink. |
