description: Seven hundred and sixty two spring-born Limousin x Hereford-Angus calves (535 lb) from one Nebraska ranch were weaned and shipped to a commercial feedlot in the Texas panhandle. Steers were randomly allotted by limit-fed a ration containing 61 Mcal NEg/CWT of DM to gain 2.20 lbs/day; (2) limit-fed a ration containing 66 Mcal NEg/CWT to gain 2.20 lb/day; or (3) ad libitum a ration containing 61 Mcal NEg/CWT until weight reached 750 lbs. All pens were switched to full feeding of a ration containing 66 Mcal NEg/CWT when the calves averaged 750 lbs. The first pen was slaughtered when visual conditions indicated that the majority of that pen would attain choice grade. All other pens were then slaughtered to approximate equal days from the end of the growing period. Gains during the growing period were 2.36 and 2.37 lbs/day for Treatment 1 and 2, compared to 2.79 lb/day for full-fed calves. Cost of gain was lowest for Treatment 2 and 3 calves during the growing period. Daily gains during finishing to greater for Treatments 1 and 2 compared to Treatment 3. The number of days from the time calves weighed 750 lbs to slaughter was similar (122 days) for all treatments. The total feeding period was 11 days longer for limit-fed calves. Daily gains for the total trial were not different although feed intake tended to be lowest for limit-fed calves. Cost of gain tended to favor limit- fed calves. Slaughter weight and carcass weights tended to be increased but quality and yield grades were not different. This study shows that weaned calves can be successfully grown on a commercial scale with high concentrate, limit-fed rations. No management problems related to the limit feeding procedure were noted.

description: 1. Cynoglossum alticola Hilliard & B.L.Burtt, Notes Roy. Bot. Gard. Edinburgh 43(3): 343 (1986).
 Type. South Africa ♀♂ Eastern Cape, Barkly East District (3027): Ben McDhui (-DB), 5 Feb 1983, O.M. Hilliard and B.L. Burtt 16468 (E-image!, holotype; NUimage!, isotype).
Perennial herbs, 0.2–0.6 m in height. Basal leaves 76–270× 8–18 mm, lanceolate, densely pubescent, persistent; margins entire. Stem leaves 35–120× 5–10 mm, lanceolate, apex acute, base cuneate, margins entire, soft woolly hairs. Trichomes spread equally on both the adaxial and abaxial leaf surfaces, unicellular hair base, not bulbous on both leaf surfaces. Inflorescence racemose, clustered at the apex; pedicel 4–10 mm long, lengthening considerably in fruit. Calyx ca. 4 mm long, lobes elliptic-oblong, densely hairy on inner surface, apices obtuse. Corolla deep blue; lobe 4× 3 mm diameter, oblong, round apex. Nutlets convex, 6–9× 5–6 mm; glochidia short and thick at the base, densely packed on nutlet, tips multi-angular (Figure 3).
 Phenology. February to May.
 Conservation status. Least Concern (Raimondo et al. 2009).
 Diagnostic characters. Cynoglossum alticola can be distinguished by its thick, convex nutlets. Among the southern African species, it has a unique appearance due to the presence of woolly trichomes that cover the whole plant. Furthermore, it has larger nutlets (6–9× 5–6 mm) than other species (less than 6× 5 mm). According to Hilliard and Burtt (1986), this species is related to C. alpinum (Brand) B.L. Burtt from the highlands of Ethiopia, with which it shares nutlet shape and size, as well as the leaf texture and colour. The difference is observed on the fornices (small crests in the corolla tube of a plant), as in C. alticola they are broad and short while in C. alpinum they are long and narrow.
 Distribution and habitat. The species is restricted to the Eastern Cape Province in South Africa and Lesotho (Figure 4), where it is found growing on mountainous terrain and on damp slopes near streams.
 Additional specimens examined. South Africa. Eastern Cape: 3028 (Matatiele): Drakensberg, near Barkly East (-CA), 19 Dec 1982, P.B. Phillipson 705 (PRE); between Malpas and Nek (- CA), 13 Dec 1995, T. Dold and M. Cocks 2058 (GRA).

description: The so-called roll bar measurement uses a heavy metal material, optically thick to x-rays, to form a shadow of the x-ray origination spot. This spot is where an energetic electron beam interacts with a high Z target. The material (the "roll bar") is slightly curved to avoid alignment problems. The roll bar is constructed and positioned so that the x-rays are shadowed in the horizontal and vertical directions, so information is obtained in two dimensions. If a beam profile is assumed (or measured by other means), the equivalent x-ray spot size can be calculated from the x-ray shadow cast by the roll bar. Thus the ellipticity of the beam can be calculated, assuming the ellipse of the x-ray spot is aligned with the roll bar. The data is recorded using a scintillator and gated camera. Data will be presented from measurements using the ETA II induction LINAC. The accuracy of the measurement is checked using small elliptical targets.

The Effect of milk production on reproductive performance in the high producing and BST supplemented dairy cow
Creators: name: McClary, David
Publisher: name: The Bovine Practitioner
Year: 1991

description: Higher-yielding dairy cows have reduced reproductive efficiency compared lower-yielding herdmates. This relationship is likely to be seen whether increased production is achieved through superior genetics or somatotropin (GH) supplementation. Increased days open in the high-yielding cow are most probably related to a slight delay in return of cyclic ovarian activity and reduced 1st service conception rates. Reduced fertility in the high-yielding cow is not directly related to increased milk yield but rather to loss of body wt and body condition. The magnitude of the negative impact of milk production on reproduction depends on the cumulative negative energy balance in early lactation. High-yielding cows can achieve optimal reproductive efficiency if they are given adequate energy and protein to support high levels of milk production in early lactation, and replenish adequate body condition in late lactation and the dry period. While GH-supplemented cows are similar to higher-yielding, genetically superior cows in that total milk is increased for the lactation, they may differ in the patterns of milk production over the lactation. Depending on the time of initiation of GH supplementation and the duration of administration, the GH-supplemented cow may have a greater persistency of the lactation curve. Subsequently, the GH-supplemented cow will produce a higher percentage of total milk in the latter part of lactation, changing the rate of profit accumulation. With more milk being produced in late lactation, the importance of maintaining a minimal calving interval may be reduced. The voluntary waiting period prior to mating may be intentionally extended, thereby reducing the pressures of early post-partum remating, when 1st service conception rates are often low in high-yielding cows. Maintaining profitable levels of milk production for longer lactation cycles will allow for later post-partum mating and reduce culling for reproductive failure. Reduced calvings per yr may actually extend herd life by reducing the number of disorders associated with the early post-partum period.

description: Lactating Holstein cows of mixed parity were randomly allocated to 4 levels of recombinant bovine somatotropin (rBST) (0, 5.2, 10.3, and 15.6 mg/day) administered into the tail fold area from early lactation (28-35 days in milk) to the end of lactation. On dairy A, 60 cows were studied for the first lactation and 43 of the same cows were studied for 2 complete lactations. On dairy B, 32 cows were studied for a single lactation, but all cows had been treated with the same dose of rBST during the previous lactation. Duplicate quarter milk samples were aseptically collected from all cows at trial entry, at 60-day intervals during the trial and at trial end or dry-off. All cases of clinical mastitis were recorded an milk samples were collected from affected quarters for microbiological analysis. Milk samples were analysed by standard microbiological precedures. Preliminary analysis of data indicated that treatment with rBST did not adversely affect incidence, prevalence and duration of subclinical intramammary infections or incidence of clinical mastitis.

Compulsory Purchase for Transport Infrastructure, 1539-1720

description: This survey of road and river legislation proposed to Parliament at Westminster (whether subsequently enacted or not) traces the origin and development of the statutory process for compulsory purchase of land. Before 1539 road and river improvement beyond the clearance of illegal obstructions was achieved only by Crown licence following a satisfactory inquisition ad quod damnum.
Compensation was always required to be paid for the compulsory purchase of land, but legislation rarely stipulated the explicit purchase of freehold, instead (but never explicitly) allowing landowners to negotiate retention of a reversionary interest in the land should it no longer be required for the purposes of the legislation.

Parliament was willing to grant these powers to trustees or other public bodies, or indeed to private individuals, but only if it was considered that doing so served the public interest.
The data here are extracted from printed copies of public Acts, and from the manuscripts of bills and private Acts held at the Parliamentary Archives, supplemented with additional material from other archives.
This material is discussed in Stephen Gadd (2019) The Emergence and Development of Statutory Process for the Compulsory Purchase of Land for Transport Infrastructure in England and Wales, c.1530–1800, The Journal of Legal History, 40:1, 1-20, DOI: 10.1080/01440365.2019.1576348

description: Laboratory evaluation of cattle affected with bovine progressive degenerative myeloencephalopathy (BPDME) showed normal CBC's, routine chemistry, and normal urinalysis results. Statistically significant differences were not detected between control and affected cattle for CK; SDH; LDH; blood cholinesterase; plasma cholinesterase; liver selenium; liver copper; serum vitamin E; and CSF parameters of CK; protein; and glucose. Cytological examinations of CSF from affected cattle were within normal limits and did not suggest degenerative or inflammatory conditions. BPDME is currently classified as a spinocerebella degenerative disease with familial predisposition. It is concluded from this study that the parameters tested are not involved in the pathogenesis of BPDME.

description: A malicious insider in a sensor network may sabotage the network at any level of operation. While most prior work on network-layer security has focused on providing control plane integrity (specifically, routing correctness), we approach a complementary and equally important problem: data plane reliability. In a data plane attack, the attacker does not attack the routing control logic, but instead directly manipulates the data payloads flowing on the network to cause disruption. We reduce the general problem of data-plane manipulation attacks to two specific attacks: packet dropping and injection, and propose two complementary protocols to address the problem as a whole. We address packet dropping with a probabilistic probing protocol which can bound the end-to-end drop rate below a fixed threshold for a given path in the presence of multiple adversarial nodes and natural packet loss. We address packet injection with a rate-limiting mechanism based on per-epoch audit to detect nodes which exceed their allotted data origination rates. In both protocols, an adversary can misbehave by at most a fixed amount on expectation, before it is detected; after detection, one of the links under its control will be removed. Hence, the total amount of misbehavior (packet injection or dropping) an adversary can inflict is a constant regardless of the lifetime of the network.

Relationship of nutrition to abomasal displacement and parturient paresis
Creators: name: Olson, Jerry D.
Publisher: name: The Bovine Practitioner
Year: 1991

description: This paper was presented at the Minnesota Dairy Conference for Veterinarians (Minnesota, USA, 5-6 June, 1991). Recent research seems to indicate that anion-cation balance is more important than calcium intake relative to susceptibility to milk fever. Feeding anionic salts for a short period pre partum can reduce the risk of milk fever. When anionic salts were given for 21 days pre partum, the incidence of parturient paresis and hypocalcaemia was reduced. Recent research has demonstrated that feeding anionic salts for 7 days can alter calcium metabolism. The feeding of 125 g each of ammonium chloride and sulphate for 21 days costs approx. $2.50 per cow. If milk fever is associated with a 14% decrease in subsequent milk production, a 1% reduction in the incidence of milk would be cost effective. There may be some problems associated with the feeding of anionic salts. First, anionic salts are not palatable and it may be difficult to mask the taste of anionic salts unless they are given incorporated with silages. In addition, they tend to concentrate in the bottom of the feed trough rations, which are composed of dry materials. Secondly, there is one report in the literature that suggests the ammonium salts can be toxic if they are dosed over a short period of time. Thirdly, it may be difficult to add enough anionic salts to correct extremely cationic diets. However, even adding some anionic salt to the diet will improve the cation-anion balance.

description: We discuss self-consistent geometries and behavior of dilaton in exactly solvable models of 2D dilaton gravity, with quantum fields in the Boulware state. If the coupling $H(ϕ)$ between curvature and dilaton $ϕ$ is non-monotonic, backreaction can remove the classical singularity. As a result, an everywhere regular star-like configuration may appear, in which case the Boulware state, contrary to expectations, smooths out the system. For monotonic $H(ϕ)$ exact solutions confirm the features found before with the help of numerical methods: the appearance of the bouncing point and the presence of isotropic singularity at the classically forbidden branch of the dilaton.

GCaMP could be used to morphologically characterize diverse cell types including the volumes of individual glomeruli (A), (B) lateral cell cluster neurons (B1), volume of the PL2 glomerulus (B2), glia (B3), and medial cell cluster neurons (B4). (C) k-means clustering significantly identified (pâ <â 0.05) three distinct cell classes based on their cell sizes, rather than differences in GCaMP expression levels, such as those in the lateral cell cluster (blue, possibly reflecting local interneurons), cells in the medial cell cluster (green, possibly projection neurons), and glial-like blebs on the glomerular surface (yellow). Cells were imaged at baseline levels and during odor stimulation (darker dots). Soma in the medial cell cluster exhibited greater changes in calcium dynamics during odor stimulation compared to the other cell types. Shaded areas denote the confidence interval around each cluster. (D) Responses of the different cell types during odor stimulation. Small, glia-like processes (yellow) showed small changes in calcium (less than 5%) compared to the soma in the medial (green) and lateral (blue) cell clusters. The projection neuron in the glomerulus (dashed green line) exhibited the largest calcium dynamic during odor stimulation.

description: Many experts believe that new malware is created at a rate faster than legitimate software. For example, in 2007 over one million new malware samples were collected by a major security solution vendor. However, it is often speculated, though to the best of our knowledge unproven, that new malware is produced by modifying existing malware, either through simple tweaks, code composition, or a variety of other techniques. Moreover, when buggy code is copied from one program to another program, both original and new programs have to be patched. However, code copying is typically not recorded. Such code reuse is a recurring problem in security. In this paper we propose a fast, scalable algorithm for automatic code reuse detection in binary code, BitShred. BitShred can be used for identifying the amount of shared code based upon the ability to calculate the similarity among binary code. BitShred can be applied to many security problems, such as malware clustering and bug finding. We developed a prototype implementation to evaluate our algorithm. The experimental results show that BitShred is able to detect plagiarism among malware samples and cluster them efficiently.

description: The free energy of a crystalline domain coexisting with a liquid phase on a spherical vesicle may be approximated by an elastic or stretching energy and a line tension term. The stretching energy generally grows as the area of the domain, while the line tension term grows with its perimeter. We show that if the crystalline domain contains defect arrays consisting of finite length grain boundaries of dislocations (scars) the stretching energy grows linearly with a characteristic length of the crystalline domain. We show that this result is critical to understand the existence of solid domains in lipid-bilayers in the strongly segregated two phase region even for small relative area coverages. The domains evolve from caps to stripes that become thinner as the line tension is decreased. We also discuss the implications of the results for other experimental systems and for the general problem that consists in finding the ground state of a very large number of particles constrained to move on a fixed geometry and interacting with an isotropic potential.

description: In this paper, we analyze the potential for new types of searches using the formalism of scattering random walks on Quantum Computers. Given a particular type of graph consisting of nodes and connections, a "Tree Maze", we would like to find a selected final node as quickly as possible, faster than any classical search algorithm. We show that this can be done using a quantum random walk, both exactly through numerical calculations as well as analytically using eigenvectors and eigenvalues of the quantum system.

description: In this work, we establish an exact relation which connects the heat exchange between two systems initialized in their thermodynamic equilibrium states at different temperatures and the Rényi divergences between the initial thermodynamic equilibrium state and the final non-equilibrium state of the total system. The relation tells us that the various moments of the heat statistics are determined by the Renyi divergences between the initial equilibrium state and the final non-equilibrium state of the global system. In particular the average heat exchange is quantified by the relative entropy between the initial equilibrium state and the final non-equilibrium state of the global system. The relation is applicable to both finite classical systems and finite quantum systems.

description: Many host-based anomaly detection techniques have been proposed to detect code-injection attacks on servers. The vast majority, however, are susceptible to “mimicry” attacks in which the injected code masquerades as the original server software (including returning the correct service responses) while conducting its attack. In this paper we present a novel architecture to detect mimicry attacks using “behavioral distance”, by which two diverse replicas processing the same inputs are continually monitored to detect divergence in their low-level (system-call) behaviors and hence potentially the compromise of one of them. We detail the design and implementation of our architecture, which takes advantage of virtualization to achieve its goals efficiently. We apply our system to implement intrusion-tolerant web and game servers, and through trace-driven simulations demonstrate that our approach can achieve low false-alarm rates and moderate performance costs even when tuned to detect stealthy mimicry attacks.

description: We show the existence of infinitely many admissible weak solutions for the incompressible porous media equations for all Muskat-type initial data with $C^{3,α}$-regularity of the interface in the unstable regime and for all non-horizontal data with $C^{3,α}$-regularity in the stable regime. Our approach involves constructing admissible subsolutions with piecewise constant densities. This allows us to give a rather short proof where it suffices to calculate the velocity and acceleration at time zero - thus emphasizing the instantaneous nature of non-uniqueness due to discontinuities in the initial data.

Probing Dense Matter in the cores of AGN: Observations with RXTE and ASCA

description: Preliminary results from an X-ray spectral study of Seyfert 1 galaxies with ASCA and RXTE are presented. From an analysis of X-ray reprocessing features of Compton reflection and Fe K-alpha fluorescence, it is found that iron line strength is not necessarily a good predictor of the amount of reflection. The variability properties of Fe K-alpha and reflection do not necessarily scale together and substantial decoupling of the behavior of the reprocessed flux with respect to continuum variability is common. Such trends suggest the presence of multiple and/or complex regions of dense matter in AGN cores and that standard accretion disk models drastically oversimplify reality.

description: The boundary theory for the c=-2 triplet model is investigated in detail. In particular, we show that there are four different boundary conditions that preserve the triplet algebra, and check the consistency of the corresponding boundary operators by constructing their OPE coefficients explicitly. We also compute the correlation functions of two bulk fields in the presence of a boundary, and verify that they are consistent with factorisation.

description: We present a method that combines software model checking with a standard protocol security model to provide meaningful security analysis of protocol implementations in a completely automated manner. Our approach incorporates a standard symbolic attacker model and provides analogous guarantees about protocol implementations as previous work does for protocol specifications. We have implemented our approach and verified authentication and secrecy properties of an industrial strength protocol implementation – OpenSSL – for configurations consisting of up to 3 servers and 3 clients. We have also implemented two distinct methods for reasoning about attacker message derivations and present their comparison in the context of OpenSSL verification.

description: Audits to detect policy violations coupled with punishments are essential to manage risks stemming from inappropriate information use by authorized insiders in organizations that handle large volumes of personal information (e.g., in healthcare, finance, Web services sectors). Our main result is an audit mechanism that effectively manages organizational risks by balancing the cost of audit and punishment against the expected loss from policy violations. We model the interaction between an organization (defender) and an employee (adversary) as a suitable repeated game. We assume that the defender is fully rational and the adversary is near-rational (i.e., acts rationally with high probability and in a byzantine manner otherwise). The mechanism prescribes a strategy for the defender that when paired with the adversary’s best response to it yields an asymmetric subgame perfect equilibrium. This equilibrium concept, which we define, implies that the defender’s strategy is approximately optimal (she might only gain a small bounded amount of utility by deviating) while the adversary does not gain at all from deviating from her best response strategy. We provide evidence that a number of parameters in the game model can be estimated from prior empirical studies, suggest specific studies that can help estimate other parameters, and design a learning algorithm that the defender can use to provably learn the adversary’s private incentives. Finally, we use our model to predict observed practices in industry (e.g., differences in punishment rates of doctors and nurses for the same violation) and the effectiveness of policy interventions (e.g., data breach notification laws and government audits) in encouraging organizations to conduct more thorough audits.

description: We analyze space- and ground-based data for the old ($7.0\pm0.3$~Gyr) solar analogs 16 Cyg A and B. The stars were observed with the Cosmic Origins UV Spectrographs on the Hubble Space Telescope (HST) on 23 October 2015 and 3 February 2016 respectively, and with the Chandra X-ray Observatory on 7 February 2016. Time-series data in \ion{Ca}{2} data are used to place the UV data in context. The UV spectra of 18 Sco (3.7$\pm0.5$ Gyr), the Sun (4.6$\pm0.04$ Gyr) and $α$ Cen A ($5.4_{-0.2}^{+1.2}$ Gyr), appear remarkably similar, pointing to a convergence of magnetic heating rates for G2 main-sequence stars older than $\approx 2-4$ Gyr. But the B component's X-ray (0.3-2.5 keV) flux lies 20$\times$ below a well-known minimum level reported by Schmitt. As reported for $α$~Cen~A, the coronal temperature probably lies below that detectable in soft X-rays. No solar UV flux spectra of comparable resolution to stellar data exist, but they are badly needed for comparison with stellar data. Center-to-limb (C-L) variations are re-evaluated for lines such as \ion{Ca}{2} through to X-rays, with important consequences for observing activity cycles in such features. We also call into question work that has mixed solar intensity-intensity statistics with flux-flux relations of stars.

Stoke's efficiency of temporally rocked ratchets

description: We study the generalized efficiency of an adiabatically rocked ratchet with both spatial and temporal asymmetry. We obtain an analytical expression for the generalized efficiency in the deterministic case. Generalized efficiency of the order of 50% is obtained by fine tuning of the parameter range. This is unlike the case of thermodynamic efficiency where we could readily get an enhanced efficiency of upto 90%. The observed higher values of generalized efficiency is attributed to be due to the suppression of backward current. We have also discussed briefly the differences between thermodynamic, rectification or generalized efficiency and Stoke's efficiency. Temperature is found to optimize the generalized efficiency over a wide range of parameter space unlike in the case of thermodynamic efficiency.

description: Electric and magnetic self-fields can exist in the rotating plasma. A self-sustained rotation can be established in the plasma. The disturbed distribution function of rotating plasma is derived from the Vlasov equation. The propagation of waves in rotating plasma differs from that in the usual plasma. New terms for Landau damping appear. The local rotational behaviour may become prevailing.

Covariant BRST Quantization of Closed Strings in the PP-Wave Background

description: We canonically quantize closed string theory in the pp-wave background with a non-zero flux of the three-form field strength by using the covariant BRST operator formalism. In this canonical quantization, we completely construct new covariant free-mode representations, for which it is particularly important to take account of the commutation relations of the zero mode of the light-cone string coordinate X^{-} with other modes. All covariant string coordinates are composed of the free-modes. Moreover, employing these covariant string coordinates for the energy-momentum tensor, we calculate the anomaly in the Virasoro algebra and determine the number of dimensions of spacetime and the ordering constant from the nilpotency condition of the BRST charge in the pp-wave background.
