Agritourism Pesticide Safety Checklist

Yes No N/A Personal Protective Equipment (PPE) Pesticide labels are read to determine the required PPE needed. The label-required PPE is always worn when applying a pesticide. A long-sleeved shirt, long pants, socks, and shoes are worn when applying pesticides. Properly sized, chemically-resistant gloves specified on the pesticide label are worn. An extra pair of chemical-resistant gloves is with the applicator in case of product failure. A cartridge respirator is used if the label requires it. A pair of goggles or a face shield is used if the label requires it. Chemical-resistant gloves are worn when reading the product label on an open container. Each applicator changes work clothing used during a pesticide application as soon as possible. Pesticide contaminated work clothing is put in a plastic bag (or laundry service hamper) to hold for later cleaning. Work clothing used during a pesticide application is washed separate from other laundry. Label-specific PPE is worn when cleaning pesticide application equipment. Non-disposable PPE is washed after use. PPE is stored in a place away from pesticides. Gloves are checked to make sure there are no rips or holes before using them. Damaged or contaminated PPE is discarded so it cannot be used again. Storage and Handling The pesticide storage area is NOT a part of a residence, office building, or barn holding animals or their feed. The pesticide storage area remains locked when not in use. Warning signs are posted on the door(s) to the pesticide storage areas. No medications, clothing, fertilizer, or combustibles are stored with pesticides. Pesticide storage areas are actively ventilated with fresh air from outside. Areas where pesticides are stored are always dry and free of debris. The pesticide storage area is well lighted. The temperature in the pesticide storage areas are maintained between 40-90°F. The flooring in the pesticide storage area is made of an impermeable surface. All pesticides are stored off the floor. Metal shelves with raised edges are used for pesticide storage. All pesticides are stored in the original, labeled container. All pesticide containers are inspected prior to use to make sure they are not leaking. The product label is read before mixing and applying a pesticide.
A Comparative Analysis of Anthropogenic CO2 Emissions at City Level Using OCO‐2 Observations: A Global Perspective

Satellite observations of anthropogenic carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions within urban settings offer unique potential to understand carbon sources and sinks and evaluate carbon mitigation strategies. Despite availability of column‐averaged dry air mole fraction of CO2 ( XCO2 ) from Orbiting Carbon Observatory‐2 (OCO‐2), temporal variations of XCO2 and their drivers in cities remain poorly understood due to inconsistent definitions of urban extent, diverse urban forms, and unresolved impacts of urban vegetation on carbon fluxes. To this end, this study revealed that OCO‐2 XCO2 measurements from 2014 to 2018 exhibited statistically significant seasonal and trend components for each city. A correlation analysis suggested a weak association between XCO2 trends and fossil fuel CO2 emissions ( FFCO2 ) trends but a close relationship between yearly average XCO2 and FFCO2 trends. Vegetation abundance exhibited a negative relationship with the XCO2 seasonality, though it only explained 21% of the variance. No statistically significant relationship between urban morphological factors (areal extent, complexity, and compactness) and temporal XCO2 components was observed. However, urban morphological factors had a close relationship with the total amount of FFCO2 aggregated over the study period. Thus, it was speculated that urban morphological factors exerted their influence on XCO2 through fossil fuel consumption. When only cities of high normalized difference vegetation index seasonality were used, statistically significant correlation coefficients between urban morphological factors and winter/summer averaged XCO2 measurements were found. The variations of these correlation coefficients between leaf‐on and leaf‐off seasons stress the important role that urban trees play in mitigating carbon emissions in cities.
Community structure of a Neotropical bat fauna as revealed by stable isotope analysis: Not all species fit neatly into predicted guilds

Neotropical bat communities are among the most diverse mammal communities in the world, and a better understanding of these assemblages may permit inferences about how so many species coexist. While broad trophic guilds (e.g., frugivore, insectivore) of bats are recognized, details of diet and similarities among species remain largely unknown. We used stable isotope ratios of carbon (δ13C) and nitrogen (δ15N) to characterize the community structure of a diverse Neotropical bat fauna from Belize to test predictions of niche theory and the competitive exclusion principle. We predicted that (1) interspecific variation in isotopic overlap would be greater within guilds than between guilds, and (2) no two sympatric populations would have isotopic niches that overlap completely, unless there is variation along some other axis (e.g., temporal, spatial). We additionally tested body size as an explanatory metric of potential overlap and predicted that larger‐bodied animals would have greater niche breadths. Results suggest that while guild‐level characterizations of communities are at least somewhat informative, there are multiple examples of intra‐ and inter‐guild species pairs with significantly overlapping isotopic niches, suggesting that, counter to predictions, they may compete for resources. Understanding the trophic structure of animal communities is fundamental to conservation and management of endangered species and ecosystems and important for evolutionary studies, and stable isotope analyses can provide key insights as well as informing hypotheses of the diet of species that are not well known.
Early screening diagnostic aid for heart disease using data mining : An evaluation using patient data that can be obtained without medical equipment

Heart disease is the leading cause of death in the world. Being able to conduct an early screening diagnosis of heart disease at home, could potentially be a tool to reduce the amount of people who lose their lives to the disease in the future.This report aims at investigating if an early screening diagnostic aid using no attributes requiring advanced medical equipment to be measured can be created, that acquires the same level of accuracy as previous data sets and studies. A litera- ture study of medical background, patient data sets and attributes, as well as data mining was conducted. A unique home data set consisting of attributes that can be obtained from home was created and data mining experiments were run in WEKA, using classification algorithms Naive-Bayes and Decision Trees.The results are compared to the Cleveland data set in regards to accuracy. The study shows that the home data set does not deliver the same accuracy level as the Cleveland data set. The idea that similar accuracy can be obtained for the dierent sets has not been disproven and more exhaustive research is encouraged.

We present a patient presenting with symptoms of alcohol intoxication with objective laboratory data of elevated blood ethanol levels without a history of alcohol consumption. We reviewed the literature and have discussed the current diagnostic and therapeutic options.
Model Projects for Early Intervention in the Mental Health of Young People: Reorientation of Services.

The Australian Early Intervention Network for Mental Health in Young People (AusEinet) was established to coordinate a national approach to early intervention for mental health in young people. The approach has three streams: (1) development and maintenance of a national early intervention network for mental health in young people; (2) identification and promotion of good practices in early intervention; and (3) the reorientation of service delivery towards early intervention. This publication focuses on the reorientation stream of the project by presenting some practical models for the reorientation of service delivery to early intervention. It offers a guide to administrators and health professionals considering reorienting their own services to early intervention. Chapter 1 describes the reorientation strategies developed in each of the projects and attempts to show how reorientation was achieved in different types of agencies. Chapter 2 discusses the need for early intervention and presents an overview of the groups and individuals for whom early intervention may be most beneficial. Chapter 3 focuses on reorientation services. Chapters 4 through 12 present the model projects. Chapter 13 reviews the projects to point out commonalties and differences and considers strategies used to achieve either immediate gains or long term change. (Contains 44 references.)

Research on Economic Operation Strategy of CHP Microgrid Considering Renewable Energy Sources and Integrated Energy Demand Response

Renewable energy resources (RESs) play an important role in the upgrading and transformation of the global energy structure. However, the question of how to improve the utilization efficiency of RESs and reduce greenhouse gas emissions is still a challenge. Combined heating and power (CHP) is one effective solution and has experienced rapid development. Nevertheless, with the large scale of RESs penetrating into the power system, CHP microgrid economic operation faces great challenges. This paper proposes a CHP microgrid system that contains renewable energy with considering economy, the environment, and system flexibility, and the ultimate goal is to minimize system operation cost and carbon dioxide emissions (CO2) cost. Due to the volatility of renewable energy output, the fuzzy C-means (FCM) and clustering comprehensive quality (CCQ) models were first introduced to generate clustering scenarios of the renewable energy output and evaluate the clustering results. In addition, for the sake of improving the flexibility and reliability of the CHP microgrid, this paper considers the battery and integrated energy demand response (IEDR). Moreover, the strategy choices of microgrid operators under the condition of grid-connected and islanded based on environment and interest aspects are also developed, which have rarely been involved in previous studies. Finally, this stochastic optimization problem is transformed into a mixed integer linear programming (MILP), which simplifies the calculation process, and the results show that the operation mode under different conditions will have a great impact on microgrid economic and environmental benefits.

Identification and Characterization of Two New S-Adenosylmethionine-Dependent Methyltransferase Encoding Genes Suggested Their Involvement in Stipe Elongation of Flammulina velutipes

Abstract Two new SAM-dependent methyltransferase encoding genes (fvsmt1 and fvsmt2) were identified from the genome of Flammulina velutipes. In order to make a comprehensive characterization of both genes, we performed in silico analysis of both genes and used qRT-PCR to reveal their expression patterns during the development of F. velutipes. There are 4 and 6 exons with total length of 693 and 978 bp in fvsmt2 and fvsmt1, respectively. The deduced proteins, i.e., FVSMT1 and FVSMT2 contained 325 and 230 amino acids with molecular weight 36297 and 24894 Da, respectively. Both proteins contained a SAM-dependent catalytic domain with signature motifs (I, p-I, II, and III) defining the SAM fold. SAM-dependent catalytic domain is located either in the middle or at the N-terminal of FVSMT2 and FVSMT1, respectively. Alignment and phylogenic analysis showed that FVSMT1 is a homolog to a protein–arginine omega-N-methyltransferase, while FVSMT2 is of cinnamoyl CoA O-methyltransferase type and predicted subcellular locations of these proteins are mitochondria and cytoplasm, respectively. qRT-PCR showed that fvsmt1 and fvsmt2 expression was regulated in different developmental stages. The maximum expression levels of fvsmt1 and fvsmt2 were observed in stipe elongation, while no difference was found in mycelium and pileus. These results positively demonstrate that both the methyltransferase encoding genes are involved in the stipe elongation of F. velutipes.
Going private transactions performance in emerging economies: a comparative study in Latin America and Asia

ABSTRACT We extend our worldwide research on private equity by studying the drivers of going private operating performance in emerging countries (Asia and Latin America). We select a large set of candidate drivers (financial, governance, macroeconomics, microeconomics, institutional variables) and we analyze their effects on performance over the short and long terms. To conduct our study, we use Capital IQ, Thomson One Banker, World Bank as databases. We contribute to the current literature by doing an investigation of the impact of macroeconomics factors and institutional drivers (political stability, rule of law and regulatory quality) on the buyout performance. Positive and significance results are obtained. We use a sample of 248 going private transactions, which occurred between 2000 and 2011. Our results show that GDP growth and political stability are important drivers that significantly contribute to generate performance in going private.
The Effects of Low Dose Sertraline on Blood Pressure in Patients with Hypertension and Panic Disorder: A Pilot Study

Objective: In this pilot study, given the prevalence of hypertension and panic disorder as described in the literature, we proposed to fill the gaps in the literature on the possible utility of SSRI medication as an adjunct treatment in individuals with panic disorder and hypertension. Methods: We planned to only recruit patients with panic disorder who fit the criteria independently for treatment with SSRI; i.e. treatment would be given based on clinical need and currently accepted Pharmaceutical Benefits Scheme (PBS) criteria. Thereafter, we would monitor their BP at baseline, 14 days and 28 days to determine if there has been an effect on the individual’s BP. Results: Based on the observation above, there may be a trend of a reduction in systolic and diastolic BP after the commencement of sertraline. Conclusion: In order to confirm this observation, a larger sample size is required in the future. This pilot study proposed to meet the objectives as listed below; however due to difficulty with recruitment, only 2 out of 4 participants will be discussed in the analysis.
Failure Discrimination Mechanism Joint Blocking Training for Target Tracking

Recently, many traditional correlation filters have been used in target tracking with outstanding performance. However, there are still some problems such as target occlusion, target deformation and so on that need to be resolved. In this paper, firstly, the tracking failure discrimination mechanism is proposed based on the optical flow method. It compares the optical flow values of each pixel in the prediction frame with the average optical current value of entire picture. The percentage of threshold exceeded is taken as the basis for the judgment. Secondly, the filter template updating mechanism based on the idea of block training is proposed when the target tracking is judged to be a failure. When the discrimination mechanism considers that the tracking fails, the current video frame is divided and separately trained for sub-model to improve the accuracy of tracking. In order to verify the improvement effect of the algorithm, this article tested on the relatively standard datasets OTB50 and OTB100 and it can be seen in the result that our method performs better in difficult tracking environment.
Assessment of prevalence of obesity among children of known population: An observational study

Background: Overweight and obesity primarily happen either due to excess calorie intake or insufficient physical activity or both. Hence; we planned the present study to assess the prevalence of obesity among children of known population. Materials & methods: A total of 400 school going children under the age of 15 years were screened during this period. Complete demographic and clinical details of all the subjects were obtained. Weight, height and BMI details of all the subjects were recorded. The BMI cutoff points recommended by the International Obesity Task Force were used to define overweight and obesity. Results: Overall prevalence of obesity in the present study was 20 percent. Significantly higher prevalence of obesity was observed in males in comparison to females. Also significantly higher prevalence of obesity was seen in children above 12 years of age. Conclusion: Obesity is a health problem affecting a significant proportion of population. Hence; adequate screening programmes are recommended for increasing awareness among general population about adverse effects of obesity.

Study of Life Table Parameters for Bird Cherry-Oat Aphid, Rhopalosiphum padi (Linnaeus), Reared on Wheat Plants

The study were conducted on life table parameters for bird cherry-oat aphid, Rhopalosiphum padi (Linnaeus) (Hom., Aphididae), on wheat seedlings at 15, 20 and 25C constant temperatures. The survival rates were 77.2, 77.7 and, 62.5% at 25, 20 and 15C, respectively. Time to 50% mortality (days) decreased gradually to 33.5, 30.5 and 17.5 by temperature increase from 15, 20 to 25C, respectively. The longest mean generation time (T) (28.66 days) was recorded at 15C. This duration decreased gradually (17.10 and 12.24 days) by the increase of temperature from 20 to 25C, respectively. Highest net reproductive rate (Ro) as 41.56 was recorded at 20C then decreased gradually to 31.375 and 27.36364 at 15 and 25C, respectively. The rate of Intrinsic increase (rm), recorded as 0.270 at 25 C, followed by 0.218 at 20C and the lowest as 0.120 at 15C. Rate of finite increase (exp. rm) followed the same sequence of (rm). It was recorded as 1.310, 1.243 and 1.128 at 25, 20 and 15 C, respectively. The highest population doubling time (PDT) reached (5.765 days) at 15C. This value was lower (3.180 days) at 20C followed by (2.564 days) at 25C, respectively.
