Human Ecology, Human Economy: Ideas for an Ecologically Sustainable Future is a 1997 book edited by Mark Diesendorf and Clive Hamilton.Human ecology, human economy: ideas for an ecologically sustainable futureBook Review: Human ecology, human economy The authors' intent is to "develop some of the basic ideas, concepts and tools that are needed to create a set of preferred futures for the Earth".

The Convention for the Protection of Human Rights and Dignity of the Human Being with regard to the Application of Biology and Medicine, otherwise known as the Convention on Human Rights and Biomedicine, or the Oviedo Convention, after Oviedo, Spain, the place where it was first signed, is a Treaty drafted by the Council of Europe regarding various aspects of bioethics. It entered into force on 1 December 1999.

Human Meta-Human Vampiric Virus, commonly called HMHVV, is a fictional disease from the game Shadowrun. The virus has been known to cause changes which often resemble abominations that are no longer human and are occasionally not even sentient.

Human, All Too Human is a three-part 1999 documentary television series produced by the BBC. It follows the lives of three prominent philosophers; Friedrich Nietzsche, Martin Heidegger, and Jean-Paul Sartre.

Human, All Too Human (Menschliches, Allzumenschliches), subtitled A Book for Free Spirits (Ein Buch für freie Geister), is a book by 19th century philosopher Friedrich Nietzsche, originally published in 1878. A second part, Assorted Opinions and Maxims (Vermischte Meinungen und Sprüche), was published in 1879, and a third part, The Wanderer and his Shadow (Der Wanderer und sein Schatten), followed in 1880.

Not Quite Human is the name of a series of young adult novels by Seth McEvoy about a widowered scientist, Dr. Jonas Carson, whose lifetime work was to create an android.

Still Not Quite Human is a 1992 made-for-TV film written and directed by Eric Luke and starring Jay Underwood and Alan Thicke. It is the third and final film in a series based on the Not Quite Human novels by Seth McEvoy.

Not Quite Human II is a 1989 made-for-TV film written and directed by Eric Luke and starring Jay Underwood, Alan Thicke, and Robyn Lively. As the second of three films in a series based on the Not Quite Human novels by Seth McEvoy, it follows the social development of an android that is designed to appear human, this time as he enrolls in college and is on his own for the first time.

Abstract: Presence of human chromosome 1 with expression of human decay-accelerating factor (DAF) prevents lysis of mouse/human hybrid cells by human complement. Wang MW, Wright LJ, Sims MJ, White DJ. Department of Surgery, University of Cambridge Clinical School, Addenbrooke's Hospital, UK. Xenogeneic organs transplanted to phylogenetically distant species are subject to rapid destruction mediated by complement. In humans, the complement activation is regulated by several proteins encoded by a series of closely linked genes (RCA locus) located on chromosome 1. The mouse/human hybrid cell line B10 wa...

Abstract: *Since space is limited, only first author will attend if paper is accepted "Most men lead lives of quiet desperation. "--Henry David Thoreau It is perhaps a fundamental truth to every psychologist and therapist in the United States and elsewhere that the fulfillment of emotional needs is basic and necessary to human well-being. Leading a rich, fulfilling life is intimately tied to being aware of ones emotional needs, and being able to meet them [i.e. 1, 2]. Conversely, a life with routinely unmet emotional needs is often filled with pain, manifesting itself as anxiety, depression, o...

Abstract: Epidermal expression of the two isoforms of the prostaglandin H-generating cyclooxygenase (COX-1 and COX-2) was evaluated both by immunohistochemistry performed on human and mouse skin biopsy sections and by Western blotting of protein extracts from cultured human neonatal foreskin keratinocytes. In normal human skin, COX-1 immunostaining is observed throughout the epidermis whereas COX-2 immunostaining increases in the more differentiated, suprabasilar keratinocytes. Basal cell carcinomas express little if any COX-1 or COX-2 immunostaining whereas both isozymes are strongly expressed in squam...

Abstract: The recombinant human interferon-gamma receptor is fully functional in a human x murine hybrid containing human chromosome 21. Bono MR, Alca?de-Loridan C, Letouz? B, Jouin H, Gobin SJ, Fellous M. Institut National de la Sant? et de la Recherche M?dicale U.276, Paris, France. It has previously been shown that stimulation of class I MHC antigen expression by human interferon gamma (Hu-IFN gamma) depends on the presence of both human chromosomes 6 and 21. Even although the presence of human chromosome 6 results in normal expression of the IFN gamma receptor on the cell surface, chromosome 21 i...

Abstract: The expression of human chorionic gonadotropin/human luteinizing hormone receptors in human gestational trophoblastic neoplasms. Lei ZM, Rao CV, Ackerman DM, Day TG. Department of Obstetrics and Gynecology, University of Louisville, School of Medicine, Kentucky 40292. Normal human placental trophoblasts have recently been shown to contain receptors for hCG/hLH. The present studies investigated the expression of these receptors in hyperplastic and anaplastic trophoblasts in gestational trophoblastic neoplasms. The results demonstrated that both hydatidiform moles and choriocarcinomas contain...

Abstract: While dialogue acts provide a useful schema for characterizing dialogue behaviors in human-computer and humanhuman dialogues, their utility is limited by the huge effort involved in handlabelling dialogues with a dialogue act labelling scheme. In this work, we examine whether it is possible to fully automate the tagging task with the goal of enabling rapid creation of corpora for evaluating spoken dialogue systems and comparing them to human-human dialogues.

Abstract: Abstract. We developed and studied an experimental system, RealTourist, which lets a user to plan a conference trip with the help of a remote tourist consultant who could view the tourist?s eye-gaze superimposed onto a shared map. Data collected from the experiment were analyzed in conjunction with literature review on speech and eye-gaze patterns. This inspective, exploratory research identified various functions of gaze-overlay on shared spatial material including: accurate and direct display of partner?s eye-gaze, implicit deictic referencing, interest detection, common focus and topic swit...

Abstract: Abstract With increasing sophistication of automation in recent years, interaction between humans and automated systems has shifted from humans using automated tools to humans and automated systems "collaborating" with each other. In designing human-computer interactions in complex systems, researchers have drawn analogies between human-computer interaction and human-human collaboration. Although "collaboration" seemingly implies achieving shared goals between equitable partners, collaboration often involves partners who have different levels of authority and responsibility. One such environm...
