Intracerebroventricular (ICV) administration of bombesin (BN) induces a
syndrome characterized by stereotypic locomotion and grooming,
hyperactivity and sleep elimination, hyperglycemia and hypothermia,
hyperhemodynamics, feeding inhibition, and gastrointestinal function
changes. Mammalian BN-like peptides (MBNs), e.g. gastrin-releasing
peptide (GRP), Neuromedin C (NMC), and Neuromedin B (NMB), have been
detected in the central nervous system. Radio-labeled BN binds to specific
sites in discrete cerebral regions. Two specific BN receptor subtypes (GRP
receptor and NMB receptor) have been identified in numerous brain regions.
The quantitative 2-[14C]deoxyglucose ([14C]20G) autoradiographic
method was used to map local cerebral glucose utilization (LCGU) in the
rat brain following ICV injection of BN (vehicle, BN O.1Jlg, O.5Jlg). At each
dose, experiments were conducted in freely moving or restrained
conditions to determine whether alterations in cerebral function were the
result of BN central administration, or were the result of BN-induced
motor stereotypy. The anteroventral thalamic nucleus (AV) (p=O.029),
especially its ventrolateral portion (AVVL) (p

In response to a looming leadership shortage, leadership development for teachers has become an increasingly important area of interest around the world. A review of the literature identified the key components of educational leadership development programs as effective curriculum, leadership practice, relationship building, and reflection. A gap in the research was found regarding the use of voluntary committee work as a vehicle for leadership practice. The purpose of this study was to explore teachers' perceptions of their experiences within board-level committees to determine the key factors that contributed, positively or negatively, to their leadership,pevelopment. A qualitative research design was employed using semistructured interviews with 8 participants. The key findings included a list of factors perceived by teachers as either supporting or hindering their leadership development. The supporting factors were: (a) leadership practice, (b) mentors and role models, (c) relationships and networks, and (d) positive outcomes for students. The hindering factors were: (a) lack of follow through and support, (b) committee members with a careerist approach to the experience, (c) personal and political agendas, and (d) overcommitment leading to burnout. Recommendations for practice focused on strategies to enhanc~_ the committee experience as a tool for leadership development. Recommendations for theory and research suggested more research be done on each of the 8 key factors, perceptions associated with teachers choosing to follow a leadership path, and how school boards can structure the committee process as an effective leadership development tool. This study provides a starting point for educators to begin to intentionally design, develop, and deliver voluntary committee experiences as a tool for leadership development.
